removing icons at the bottom

how do you remove the icons at the bottom of the today screen in WM6?
i have already disabled Tray launch, but those icons still exist...see picture.

Remove the Battery Icon:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Services\Power]
"ShowIcon"=dword:00000000
Remove the Wireless Manager Icon:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Services\WirelessMgr]
"Keep"=dword:00000000
remove TrayAp.exe if exist
[HKLM\init]
Launch92=
look in
[HKLM\Software\HTC\TrayApplet]
search registry for tray and see what it comes up with, be careful, backup reg keys before editing
Delete - init_tray.lnk if exist from windows\startup folder.
Look for other links in this folder that might create a tray icon
When you start DFregedit or DFrunningApps, it always installs a tray icon. I believe there is no option to disable this, all you can do is not to close it with close button but with menu>exit. Or be real nice to DotFred and ask him for an option to disable the feature.
There's a blue icon in the corner that I do not know, is it Bluetooth related or a suspend or reset button? Possibly placed their by software you installed or it came with your ROM.

The buttons there are: DFRegedit, Battery, Comm Manager, Rotate Screen, Pshutoff, Bluetooth.
ok will try the removal from the registry, i guess most people love this type of setup - with tray at bottom, i find it not nice to look at, since my icons on top are large and the ones on tray are tiny, no balance...hehehe.

yup i use RLTODAY and i edited the skin file to suit me. although the original skin.xml is already OK.

Hi
I am trying to do the same, found the values in the registry, edited them properly with a regeditor, but no changes. After a soft reset, the values are back as before, unchanged...
Any idea, what is happening? PHM registry editor has no "save" option, so I don't know other than to exit the application via "Tools - Exit"

Yes, this can be frustrating. On your desktop PC every change to the registry is immediately permanent, on your Hima it's not always so.
Count to 20, exit reg editor, count to 20, switch off, count to 20, switch on, count to 20, soft reset USING software!, not the hole/stylus method!, check result. Most of the time just using software soft reset also works but not always.

y dnt u guyz use CEregedit..it connects ur ppc to ur pc via USB and copy's all reg entries

please give a download link

ok here u go Maggy
wince regedit : http://rapidshare.com/files/72691245/ceregedit_setup.rar

Thanks a lot, this looks not only better than any xda regeditor, it even looks better than XP regedit! Any idea if a version for editing the XP registry exists?

yeah i have one called Registery Workshop..i will post its link A.S.A.P

im just even using the DFRegEdit that come with the Shekhar ROM, by the way, when u edit the SKIN.XML, u just open it with NOTEPAD, do editing, save, then to APPLY changes, open Settings - Today - Items - RLtoday - Options, the press OK for the SKIN to make the changes....then your TODAY screen changes.

When using the rlToday how did you make the scroll bar on the side go away?

Tried it nothing changes
i only use this because i can launch a program by holding the exit button!
is there another tool to do this?

long press end key allows basic functions but not specific programs im afraid. I cant think of anything other than WkTask. ANY HELP???

i dont mean end key i mean the "X" on the screen

did u map launcher in the settings, works perfect for me.

i mapped it but it jsut appears the first time, if i start it again in shows up invisible and i can press the ddisplay at the right possitions!

When you are using the BatteryStatusPlugin in the to-day screen, thenn deinstall it, and the wkTask works after that correctly. It was so by me.

Yes its BatteryStatus
I love this Plugin it worked under WM6
edit: seem to work again after remove and activate batterystatus again

I get the exaxct same thing. I disabled all of my today plugins but still only see wtask launcher when first launched after that it is invisible only the next and exit are shown in the bottom bar.

Hi everybody.
Same issue. After a few days wktask got invisible. I dont see the gui. No icons at the top and the launcher doesnt work. I solved the problem by uninstalling wktask, delete the registry entries and reinstall it. So it worked for a few days. I dont found out, because of that it disappear. But somebody means its BatteyStatus. I installed the HomeScreen PlusPlus ...
Are there any solutions about this topic? I always need both tools.
Thanks for help.
Regards

BatteyStatus = HomeScreen PlusPlus
Just a name change
Yes i solved the problem the same way just reinstall both and it works
but thank you for your (late) answer

Can't work no more than 3 apps
Guys,
I got strange problem with WKTask. When I added more than 2 app on launcher, it failed to launch. So I use FDC Soft task manager then tap action-run app-WK Task Setting. Delete all of apps from launcher it run back normal again. Is anybody got the same problem w/ me? If no, please advise.
Thanx

Startmenu items not displayed?!?

Hi,
I was playing a little bit around with my new Diamond (installing apps, tweaks with advanced config, ...) and since the last soft-reset I only see a black panel, when I open the startmenu, but when I press somewhere inside this panel the items are shown, but the item under the position I've pressed is imediatly excecuted!
Is there a way to get the items back without formating the device?
regards
cfi

did you install SecondToday?
if so, a new version has been made, what might fix your problem

I've updated SecondToday but the Startmenu is still away...
I think I will do a comlete clean of the phone to remove all of my "tests" in the last days...

The same happened to me when I enabled the Startmenu animation.

The same to me - Just disable the Startmenu-animation in Advanced Config, Softreset and the Menu is back again...

I have that same issue with the black start menu. I solved it.. Just disable the ''Large Start menu'' in settings.
Just know which programs will conflict with the OS.
I have wisbar conflicting with Marschall Wait Cursor by showing no taskbar sometimes. So i dont use MWC

It was the "Animate Menu"-Setting at mine to...

some tweaks will mess up the phones functions, make sure its a supported cab
if not just hard reset and should be fine again

Quick menu, X, and ok problem!

I've searched through the forum but can find nothing about this problem.
For some reason the quick menu no longer drops down.
When in a program or menu such as programs (WM) the icon top right has the X or ok on top of the quick menu icon, both showing as in screenshots.
I have triend enabling and disabling quick menu in Settings -> System -> Task Manager -> Button.

you need to pick one x button or the other
if your gonna use windows go into quickmenu options and disable the x button and all related options
if your gonna use quickmenu x than go and disable windows task manager via control panel

I want to use quick menu, so I have both Enable the "X" button end running programs and Enable Quick menu on today screen, which i'm sure was default (i have htc rom 1.37.405.1 wwe). then when pressing button, list would drop down with x, spanner, and mem icons and list of running programs. this no longer happens.
to disable win task manager in control panel do you mean in the registry. if so which key, i can only see default and group.

Installing some other applications can interfere with HTC task manager and give exactly the symptoms you describe. For me it was installing Spb Mobile Shell. Sometimes after a soft reset it would work for a while and then stop working. Sometimes it wouldn't work at all. Could this be your problem?

Could be I suppose although it was working fine for at least 3 days after installing and using spb. Could it be from using task manager through spb and if so is there a way of changing it?
anyway i might get rid of spb mobile shell as i don't think it's that good and see if that solves it.
SOLVED: or at least back to normal after removing spb mobile shell disable buttons in task manager disable touchflo soft reset and enable all again.
update: i've installed spb again to see what happens, so far quick menu is still working so I'm guessing problem occurs when task manager is used through spb.

Advanced config broke tabs

Hello,
I installed Advanced Config after installing .Net 3.5
I ran it with the default values thinking that people who wrote it are more experienced then me, and clicked done
Advanced Config asked for soft reset and I let it
Then something weird happened
Whenever my Touch Pro is in landscape mode the tabs, not the ones on the main menu, but the ones like on the bottom of the screen when you choose settings do not have any text unless they are selected
Also, if I have to enter some text, in for example a browser, the text does not appear. It is entered but I cannot its transparent.
Anyone have any idea what is happening?
BTW: I am running the default ROM, did not do any flashing

Cleartype
check the advanced config menu and you'll find additonal settings.
One of them should mention cleartype in landscape.
Turn that off and your text will appear again -it's a known bug.

Thought it was it
Unchecked ClearType > Soft reset
Still the same
EDIT: I don't know what I did after that but now it just appeared
Thanks
