VistaHide Battery Gauge Issues - XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Why is it that everytime i turn my phone on i have to activate the .exe for the bar to display? is there a way that i can get it permanently installed? Thanks!

move it to the windows startup folder

thanks. that did the trick!

how?
How do I move vistahide.exe to startup?

easy
open file explorer and mark the file. Then go to menu and select the move option. Now navigate to windows/startup folder. Select menu/edit/paste. VOILA

no move optuon
I have an xp
eria x1i and it doesnt seem to have a move option under menu.

:sigh: no copy-paste in iphone, eh?
1. Go to vistahide.exe and press and hold.
2. Select copy
3. go to device > windows > startup
4. press the right soft key and select paste.
5. cry

hmmm
hmm the copy menu didn't pop up when I press and hold enter. The only thing that pops up is the installation screen. The menu button on my x1i doesn't have a move option.

HAHAHAHAHA. Read it again. CLICK and HOLD on the file. A menu pops up that has a copy option on it. Select it.
Then navigate to the /Windows/Startup folder and paste it there.
There is no MOVE option in standard file explorer. It is copy and paste.

copy
I also try clicking and holding on the vistahide.exe file but the copy menu still didn't pop up.

You have the stylus, right?
Now use the sharp end and press it on the file name. Easy, no?
Now wait for a 8 grey small circles that will appear. A drop down menu will appear.
You still have the stylus, no? Your fingers might work, but it's more accurate with a stylus.
Click on copy.

I can't believe were on page 2 on a thread on how to copy-paste

lol, thanks for this. Ive been having this issue with vista guage on my x1i for ages, its good job i know how to paste though already.
thanks guys

haha two pages for such a simple task. Well it still doesn't work for me. When I press and hold on the .exe fie the loading circles appeared but the copy/paste menu didn't pop up. I bought my xperia used so it might be missing some files that prevent the menu from poping up.

Alternatively..

If this really doesn't work for you, then highlight the .exe file, click Menu > Edit.. > Copy
Then navigate to the folder you wish to paste it to, and click Menu > Edit.. > Paste

Also, if you're using enlarged menus, you might have to scroll through the options to find copy and paste, as not all of them can be seen onscreen.

I am sorry but this is a lost cause. I think you are just yanking our chains. (Faking)
If you have been a member here since March and you still REALLY don't know how to COPY and PASTE then you probably should buy a jitterbug.

OMG, you active it everytime you restart phone? so pity

I have the exact same problem. I just got my Xperia back from service repair (cracks, we all know it..) and indeed, the standard menu doesn't pop when the stylus is held onto the .exe file. Also, the copy-option isn't available in the standard menu.
Now, i've copied the .zip-file into the startup folder, but as you'll understand, I still have to unzip AND activate the program averytime my phone is booted up.
EDIT: When the .exe-file is unzipped, select the file and email it to yourself. JUST THE .EXE-FILE!! then, open your mail, save the file, copy it from the saved location and paste it into the startup folder.
It's a bit more work, but worth the trouble

Quick Menu on Tilt

Tryed this on my Tilt and so far it seems to run fine with no problems. It replaces/adds functionally to the start button on the main screen. Has alot of options to customize it also. Its freeware.Simply make a folder called quickmenu in your programs dir, and add the files and click to run it.
ya, been using it myself. I like it. it's a lot like Windows XPs start menu
I love how it adds a % to the topbar battery icon, no more guessing from the stupid bars anymore.
i use SPB pocket plus which adds a few pixel bar across the top. I prefer that spot that quick menus battery takes for HTC task manager. it's a preference thing though.
can you post a screen shot of what this looks like? Thanks
The author has a thread going in the hacking forum on xda:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=340358
I just noticed that.
Once you try it out you wont go back to the standard wm6 menu button. Infact you can run both at once if you want just click on "start" for the original menu, or the little windows icon next to it for this quick menu.
QuickMenu is fantastic
Long ago I used to use SmallMenu. It was too slow though, for some reason. I have been using QuickMenu for a couple of weeks and I cannot live witout it! In fact I thought Microsoft was going to build something like this into WM6, and was very surprised they didn't bother...
This is freeware from China. I have version 2.7.387.1527. The web site for this software is:
http://www.alensw.com
What version was posted here? And where can we get a version that will be upgraded in the future, and could have an english web site? I guess you could use google to translate the above web page...
i'm having trouble getting this to work on my tilt, i cant get the file to open and install, any suggestions?

Download zip from first post
unzip the 4 files in it
put the 4 files in a folder on your tilt (make a folder in "program files" called quickmenu)
browse to the exe and tap on it
should work just fine. You will not see anything setup on your ppc. After thats done just click on the windows start icon (upper left corner) and the smaller menu should appear all installed and ready to go.
It is not a pc setup program, the exe is already in ppc format and ready to run on your ppc.

shortcuts

I would like to add my "favorites" to the today screen. I've added the kaiser tweaks and the HTC homepage plugin. No where does it allow me to put my favorites on a tab or on the menu. Does anyone have a way to do this? It would make jumping online for something so much quicker. Thanks
If you're using HTC Home, you can add shortcuts to the "launcher" tab.
Go start>settings>today then at the bottom tab shift to "HTC Home" and make sure "launcher" is checked to display.
Then from your Today screen, tap over to the "launcher" icon. You'll see two rows of little squares now (the top row is filled in). You can tap a black square and it will allow you to select which application launches from that sqaure. The little "x" allows you to unlock the squares to remove them.
If you want to add an application or shortcut not on the availabe list, sync to your PC and go into your device.....create a shortcut in the windows>start menu folder.
Hope that helps...if that's what you were looking for.
* this may of course all vary depending on which version of HTC Home you have loaded
Sounded brilliant but it didn't work. I'm working on XP and it wouldn't allow me to make a shortcut on the mobile phone (tilt). So I just copied my favorites folder into the program files folder, start menu folder, and anywhere else I thought it might show up. I got it onto the start screen, but there was nothing in it. Any other suggenstions?

It will work with XP, you may need to open two windows to do it.
From your PC (my computer) open a window for the device....surf down to Windows>Start menu.
Now go back to "my computer" again and open a second device window. Surf down to whatever directory you are looking for...then drop/drag the exe into the open start menu window.....select "create shortcut" and your done
I got it onto the start screen, but there was nothing in it. Any other suggenstions?

Not sure I follow. It may not appear until you restart the device.
You'll get it, though. Keep tinkering.

If I understand you correctly, I think what you want is to be able to open your Internet Explorer Favorites quickly and easily on your Kaiser. If that's the case, what you need to do is check the "Favorites" box in ActiveSync - that will port all your favorites to your mobile device - then when you open Pocket Internet Explorer (PIE), all your favorites are available from there.

Problem with start menu programs link - please help

When I click Programs on my start menu, the device just returns to the TouchFlo home screen. The settings link works fine.
Any idea what has gone wrong and how to fix it?
Programs menu...
Has the 'Programs' shortcut menu ever worked?
If so, it sounds like the folder may have been deleted or moved. Use a file explorer application and browse to 'Windows\Start Menu' - does this folder contain a 'Programs' folder?

It used to work fine and yes, Windows\Start Menu container a Programs folder.
When I double-tap it to open it in Total Commander, it opens in Total Commander absolutely fine and all my shortcuts are in there as expected.
One thing I notice though it may mean nothing is that unlike my Games sub-folder it has no icon.lnk file. As I say, that could mean nothing!
It appears that Programs in the start menu is a kind of default thing in Windows mobile, is there a reg setting that may have got screwed?
Thanks for the help. Anything else to suggest?
Rename the troublesome Programs folder in start menu to something else like Programs2. Next make a new folder and cut and paste all the shortcuts in the Programs2 folder into the new folder. Finally delete the original Programs2 folder. So you have made a new Programs folder. Let me know if that works.

Thanks for the idea. I have tried that but get exactly the same result.
One discovery I made is that if I disable the enlarged start menu, the Programs link works fine!
Anyway, if there are no more ideas from anyone, I fear a hard reset could be in order.
Thanks
Ahh shucks! Sorry it didn't work. I suggested it because I had the sae problem. I made a new folder in Start Menu called Phone and it stopped opening after a while. I did the trick above and it works fine now.
See I have unchecked favourite apps from showing in start menu by unchecking them in the Menu option in Settings. Instead, I created folders in the Start Menu folder, such as Internet, Media, Travel, Office, Games, System, Audio etc and copied the relevant shortcuts from progam folder to the new folders. So when I hit start menu from my home page, I get a drop down list of folders only. Much better in my opinion.

Interesting way of organising your Start Menu.
However, I would probably forget in which folders I put the apps! I quite like the Programs list - it does exactly what I want - so thats why I will just stick with that. I was actually wondering if there was a way of making that Programs folder look better - for instance removing the scrollbars or something. Just a nicer looking program launcher really, but as I say, I like the way it works for me.
Anyway, thanks very much for the help. The programs link is a special link of some sort I reckon, hence your fix didnt work. I think I will upgrade my ROM and do a hard reset!

[APP][3-13-2009] Kwik-E-Map v0.2 -- Simple FUZE keyboard mapper (map CTRL, etc)

KwikEMap
Version 0.2 (Beta)
To Use
======
* Install the KwikEMap.CAB on your device. (Do NOT install it on a Storage Card)
* Execute KwikEMap.exe, it will run in the background and your key mappings will be in effect. It uses about 35KB of memory and less than .5% of your CPU (while keys are being pressed only).
* Add a shortcut to KwikEMap.exe to \Windows\StartUp if you'd like the app to run each time your phone boots.
* If you execute KwikEMap.exe while it is already running, the KwikEMap Window will appear. From there, you can HIDE the application again, or QUIT and restore all key mappings to normal.
* There is also a "Show Window" keyboard shortcut you can use to open the KwikEMap window. By default, it is FN+PERIOD.
Default Key Mappings
=====================
These all can be changed in the KwikEMap.cfg file. See "Important Note", below, regarding the first 4 mappings.
Code:
FUZE Key Maps To Notes
------------- ---------- ---------------------
CALENDAR CTRL see "Important Note", below
CONTACTS TAB see "Important Note", below
EMAIL HOME see "Important Note", below
INTERNET END see "Important Note", below
SHIFT+BACK ESC
QUESTION MARK CTRL Makes a nice right CTRL key, for pressing CTRL-X, etc.
SHIFT+PERIOD ? Since we no longer have a question mark due to prev. map
FN+PERIOD KwikEMap Shows KwikEMap Window
You can use modifiers with this mappings and use multiple combinations. For example, you can press CTRL+HOME, or SHIFT-TAB.
Important Note Regarding CALENDAR, CONTACTS, EMAIL, INTERNET
=============================================================
To use these keys, you must configure the FUZE so that the normal functions of those keys are disabled. Some ROMS (Da_G's, NATF, RSW, etc) let you do this via the Buttons setting. If your ROM doesn't, this must be done by placing "null" shortcuts in specific locations. (thanks to Da_G for this information)
There is a shortcut in Program Files\KwikEMap\ called "NoButton.lnk". The shortcut basically does nothing. Simply copy this shortcut to the locations indicated to effectively disable the normal function of any of the 4 keys you'd like to use:
Code:
To Disable Copy "NoButton.lnk" as:
------------ ----------------------
CALENDAR \Windows\Start Menu\Calendar.lnk
CONTACTS \Windows\AppButtons\Contacts.lnk
EMAIL \Windows\Short_Messaging.lnk
INTERNET \Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Media Net Home.lnk
Notes:
1) To hide the start menu location links so they don't appear in the Start Menu, simply edit the files' properties and mark it as "Hidden".
2) Future versions of this app will copy these shortcuts automatically.
3) Even if those shortcuts do not currently exist on your phone, you still can (and must) disable the normal function of those keys by creating the "NoButton.lnk" shortcuts as specified if you wish to map them.
Setting up your own Mappings
============================
* See the KwikEMap.cfg file for full information and examples.
* While the KwikEMap window is open, you can press various keys and KwikEMap will show you the corresponding Key Codes and any modifiers used. You can use this to assist in setting up your own key mappings.
* The order you list the mappings matters; the first one found is what gets used. So, if you want to map WIN as CTRL, but keep WIN+PERIOD as the normal Windows Key, list WIN->CTRL first, then list CTRL+PERIOD->WIN next, and it will work. (This is because WIN has already been re-mapped to CTRL)
* The app should be smart enough to avoid cycles, so you can swap two keys. For example, you should be able to map A to B, and then also B to A, without any problems.
* Note that the FUZE's keyboard is odd; you will see that when you press the Question Mark key, for example, it actually is registering as "SHIFT+/" even though you are not pressing the SHIFT key! Keep this in mind as you set up your custom mappings.
* For now, you must QUIT and re-start the app to re-read the mappings from the .cfg file.
* A full list of Windows Mobile key codes can be found here:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb431750.aspx
Notes Regarding Specific Keys
=============================
* The WINDOWS key now should be fully mapable; i.e., it makes a good CTRL key.
* The CAPS LOCK key is partially mapable (i.e., you can map it to TAB), but there are two issues:
1) It still toggles the caps state, even when mapped
2) It never stays registered as pressed, so you cannot use it as a modifier-type key (i.e., CTRL)
* You can use the FN key as a modifier (i.e., map FN+C to CTRL+C to "cut"), but only if that key doesn't already have a FN modifier built-in. So, feel free to map a whole bunch keys like FN+A, FN+C,FN+B, etc, to whatever you want! (some examples are below)
Other Mapping Examples
======================
Use the WINDOWS key as a CTRL key, but still map WINDOWS-PERIOD to the old windows key:
5B=+00 (WIN -> CTRL)
+BE=5B (CTRL+PERIOD -> WIN)
Use CAPS LOCK as a TAB:
14=09
Use FN+A, FN+X, FN+C, FN+V for Select All, Cut, Copy, Paste, respectively:
#41=+41 (FN+A -> CTRL+A, Select All)
#58=+58 (FN+X -> CTRL+X, Cut)
#43=+43 (FN+C -> CTRL+C, Copy)
#56=+56 (FN+V -> CTRL+V, Paste)
Use WIN-UP as HOME, WIN-DOWN as END
&26=24 (WIN+UP -> HOME)
&27=23 (WIN+DOWN -> END)
=======================================
Have Fun! If all goes wrong, just soft-reset.
How does it work?
Can you tell me how this works? I'm an experienced software dev, but new to Windows Mobile programming.
Hi -- I am in the same boat as you; experienced developer, but very new to windows mobile and very rusty with C++. So, I may not be the best to learn from! but, at the core of things, we use a windows "hook" to grab keyboard messages before they are processed.
More info here:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms644990(VS.85).aspx
Hope that helps. I will also post my source code eventually.

Here's a very simple key re-mapping app, Kwik-E-Map. Please try to forget my terrible, hacky first attempt, FuzeKeys, and don't hold that against me!
You can pretty much re-map anything except the HOME key at this point. This isn't a "hotkey" app launcher or anything fancy, just something simple to put CTRL and TAB keys on your FUZE, things like that.
Here's the scoop:
1) unzip the two files to a folder somewhere on your phone
2) run KwikEMap.exe.
That's it! It runs in the background, and currently maps the following:
CALENDAR --> CTRL
CONTACTS --> TAB
MESSAGING --> HOME
INTERNET --> END
? -- > CTRL (i.e., a nice Right-CTRL, to press CTRL-A, CTRL-Z, etc)
SHIFT-PERIOD --> ? (since we lost the ? key)
SHIFT-BACKSPACE --> ESC
4) In addition, pressing FN-PERIOD will bring up the "Kwik-E-Map" window, where you can close the application or test out some key presses to view key codes. (this key is re-mappable, see below)
It runs in the background, put a shortcut to it in your start-up if you like. It uses about 35K and I have not seen the CPU usage go above .5% (and that's when pressing all kinds of keys really quickly to see how high we can get it go!)
Don't like those key mappings? want to add more? See the key mappings in the KwikEMap.txt file. All of the info you need is there.
Final notes:
1) You can map the CAPS LOCK key to, say, TAB, but I cannot figure out how to not get it to affect the CAPS LOCK state. In other words, go ahead and map CAPS LOCK as TAB, it will work, but it will toggle capitals each time you press it. Also, CAPS LOCK always registers an "UP" event as soon as you press it, so it won't work well if you need to hold it down; e.g., to use it as a CTRL mapping.
2) You can map the windows key, but it still makes the start menu appear. You CAN map the windows key to "00" (see the .txt file) which will effectively disable the windows key normal operation (such as the start menu appearing) for any un-mapped keystrokes.
3) the order of mappings in the config file matters. If you map the "A" key to one thing, and then SHIFT-A to another, you'll never get the SHIFT-A mapping unless you list that one first.
4) to use the CALENDAR, INTERNET, etc, mappings, you need a ROM that let's you use the Buttons settings to map those keys, and map them to "Do Nothing". (most of the roms here have this feature added, I believe)
5) If you change the .txt mappings, you must stop and re-start the app.
6) If you re-execute the KwikEmap.exe file, the app's window will appear, allowing you to shut it down if you like.
7) A list of windows mobile key codes can be found here.
Everything is still in alpha test mode. The Fuze keyboard is funky, so there's no telling what will work and what won't, or what side effects you might encounter. USE AT YOUR OWN RISK. (However, the worst-case scenario is that you need to do a soft-reset to get back to normal).
Please let me know how it goes. It can and will be made more efficient, eventually, perhaps a better UI at some point, a CAB installer, etc.

I really think this app as potential but all i really want to to remap the the internet key to CTRL and it seems to work but it will also open the file.... example if i want to copy over pictures from a folder but the files are not next to each other i press the internet button and it will let me select three different pictures but will open them also so how do i get around that. hope i explained it correctly. thanks

see "note #4" in my post. (which you quoted)
If you can't map those keys using the Buttons settings, then the easiest way is to map the "?" key as CTRL, and then simply map SHIFT-PERIOD (or something like that) to the Question mark. I don't think an extra keystroke for a question mark is a big deal if it gets you a nice CTRL key.
EDIT: I just re-read your post more carefully. I actually have no idea what you are asking.

sorry i will try to give a better example below
file1
file2
file3
file4
file5
so lets say im in total commander and i want to copy file 1, file 3, file 5 to a different directory. so i press and hold the internet button(which i have remapped as CTRL) and tap on file 1 which opens the document so i close out of the document and tap on file 3, so now file 1 and file 3 are highlighted(selected) so file 3 opens and i close out of file 3 and tap on file 5 which opens file 5 which i close out of and now i am in total commander with 3 files selected i can now tap & hold and select copy and it will copy. but i want to select the files with out them opening. i know i can change the options to double tap in total commander and that would fix the problem but i was just wondering if there might be another way. thanks hope this is better

I think you gave yourself your own answer. I can't really give you Total Command support here in this thread, I have no idea. I just map the keys, I don't control how applications respond to them!

Are you sure your key mappings are not working? Nothing really seems to happen for most of them, since they are keys like HOME, END, CTRL, etc -- you'd need an app open that uses those keys to see the effect.
For example, open up Word, and tell me what happens when you press the "?" key on your keyboard. Or, give me specific examples of what you tried, what you expected to happen, and what did happen instead. That info makes things much easier to troubleshoot rather than just saying things "don't work".

I then type something in the body of the message, and highlight it. I push "Calendar"+B to bold it, but my calendar opens up...

It runs in the background! It is designed to be used while the window is hidden. The app's keymappings are suspended when the window is open so it can show off the key codes and in case you have errors/problems with the mappings. Simply don't show the app's window (click HIDE if it is open already) and the key mappings should take effect.
EDIT: Also, as mentioned in the initial post, you cannot use the Calendar, Internet, etc, keys unless your ROM let's you map those keys to "None", otherwise the normal button action still occurs. So, you'd need to use ? for CTRL in that case, or define your own mappings using other keys.

Sorry, my previous post should read as follows:

See the EDIT in my previous post. And, tell me what happens when you press ? (question mark) plus "B". That should do what you want. (Assuming Outlook supports CTRL+B = bold)
A good one to test that's pretty universal is CTRL-A to select All. (i.e., works in File Explorer, Word, any text control, etc)

Yes, CTRL is maped correctly to the ?-key. So it actually does work. My mistake. Except for the calendar, contacts, internet, etc. keys.
It's too bad that my ROM doesn't support mapping those keys to NONE. Is this something a chef can cook in?

Yeah, it must be cooked in as far as I know, drivers and system files need to be replaced or updated as far as I know. NotATreoFan's ROM and I think Da_G's have this feature. I am trying to see if I can figure out a way around this, but no luck so far. I am going to see if I can "hook into" messages sent to the Keypad.dll and figure out if that works.

Hello,
