Is there a way to change a folder icon with Better Cut and without Open Home, aHome etc? I can't figure it out...
i put a folder on the home. went into better cut, edit shortcut, and the folder was not in the list of editable shortcuts. good find and good question. i say e-mail the dev.
Well, at least I know I'm not the only one.
i thought with the last update it said we could. i just tried it and nope
I'm pretty sure that was Open Home that allows that....
Yeah it is. "1.7.7 folder icon changeable"
Well, I know you can do it with Open Home.
How do ya do it with out Open Home?

Yes Im a noob, trying to learn. Ive learned the hard way on somethings and Ive had to reinstall the T-Mobile rom 2-3 times already on messing up. When you open the "Start" button you have your programs from the "Menus" in the "Settings" you choose what shortcuts you want here. Then theres the line and I have a bunch of program icons and then another line and then "Programs, "Settings. How do you get rid of those icons or shortcuts in between the lines?
Thanks, I searched but couldnt find an answer please inform me.
it sounds to me, like you're trying to clear out the recently used programs list. If that's what you're talking about ... install this cab.
Err I ah cant figure out how to install this file Im still looking unless you just want to throw me a bone.
Wow, you are a newbie! It's a cab file. Download it on your device, locate it with file explorer, click it so it installs. Look in your program folder, find the program, run it.
Yea right after I got put that post up I had to leave for work. I knew that I had it on the phone and found it at work. Is there any way to keep the "recent folder" empty even after running a couple of programs other then running the cab to clear it out again?
Thanks for the replys though.
if you use quick menu it will hide recent programs in a seperate sub menu.
Does anyone has a clue if we can remove the small mobile icon on the photo in the Favorite People? I notice this icon will show up if I have more than 1 number ties to the person.
just delete hh_people_16x16_device.png, hh_people_16x16_home.png and hh_people_16x16_working.png from your windows directory.
these are the small icons...
HAllo,
I have the same problem...i found these files in windows directory but the menu items "Delete" or "Cut" are disabled. What can i do? Thanks
petervbeck: Thanks but like Queenmercury I do not have the option to delete them. They are part of the ROM probably because I have a HTC TyTn II. Any program that I can use to remove unwanted ROM files?
xoxo
You can't delete because the files are in use by HTC Home.
Disable HTC Home in Settings -> Today and try again.
If it's still not working, try using TotalCommander to delete the files.
--> Sorry for wrong information: Solution see Post #10
I tried using Resco Explorer to delete. No luck. Error: Files are part of the ROM.
Let me make sure, on the HTC HOME screen you are trying to get rid of the "Contacts" tab (the one where you can assign phone numbers to little blocks)
I did it because I have an app called face contacts which works much better. lol
I just tried this and it works but you have to install a few other CAB files to get it to work.
go to this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=319308&highlight=home+customiser
Then follow the directions to install the HTC HOME CUSTOMIZER (HHC)
when you go to the set up on the bottom tabs in the HHC there is a tab for the HTC HOME "tabs"
It is there where you can add or take out specific tabs.
hopefully it works for you like it did me.
No, they just want to get rid of the little icon that attaches itself the the front of the contacts image when you assign a specific number, eg mobile instead of home.
I also tried disabling the home screen, deleted the icons with resco, but the icons were there again when I restarted the plugin.
Tried restarting device, and the files I got rid of were there again...
I have the opposite problem... I have the Favorite people tab checked so that it should be on my Today screen. No matter what I do, I can only get the today, weather,launcher, ringtones and musice tabs to show up. I would actually like the Favorite people tab on the today screen. I have the HHC program and have put contacts in, but still no tab showing up.
No favorite Contacts || Transparent HH_Device_Icons

Have you tried to delete this registry key already ?
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Software/OEM/MASD/QuickDial
it's not that hard to find when you do a quick search.... maybe next time....
To keii and Queenmercury:
The solution are transparent pics, see attachment.
Disable HTC Home and then replace the existing files with the attached files. Works fine on my Kaiser
I did a search but did not get any results. When I followed your link to quick search, there it was. Apparently I have not been searching the entire site, only Kaiser. Thanks... the fix did indeed work and I will use the quick search from now on!

Many thanks petervbeck for prompt response but it's still not working. I tried to replace the files with your transparent and it's telling me they are read-only file.
Is there a registry key I can edit to remove the picture?
Initially accidently posted this in the Diamond forum...
Happy Holidays.
After reading a post here or in another forum I stumbled across a program called BARCORAMA http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=368798
Its a program that lets you scan UPC barcodes with your camera and then goes out to the internet to let you find the lowest price online for that item...already saved me quite a bit...and made shopping feel sortof fun for once...fealt like a spy..LOL
Works Awesome on my touch Pro...strangely seems to work better when I zoom to 2x and take the picture than when im in close

I got the app working great on a touch pro.
Except I changed the default to pop open skyfire for the browser, and also piped it into Google shopping search engine, rather than just google. B/c in shopping it already shows the prices and places to buy.
Neat app! Thanks. Minor suggestion, offer the ability to put a path for the images and / or a way to name it when you shoot the UPC.

What URL did you use to make it use Google Shopping search engine?

I'm not really sure what you mean by this. My search is

did you add the +100... in that string? Sorry for the silly question, and thanks for the help if you can answer.

open the app, go into settings and hit the right arrow until you see the google address. then replace the word "search" with "products"
EDIT: works well. i zapped every item on my desk at work and it found them all.

LOL...no, sorry for the misunder standing. I was trying to add credability to the other guys post of pointing it to google shop instead of just google. I wanted to just put +1 as in I am also wanting this, but you have to have 10 characters to make a post.
mine is not working everything i scan says no barcode i have the pro and question what is it suppose 2 say for program 2 run
does anybody have an idea of why its not working
Zoom in to 2.0 on the camera and try again.
still not working do i have 2 upgrade the rom 2 use this program
is there a cab file for this? or how do install this to my phone? just use sync and drag and drop it into my program files??
yeah I found Standing further away from the barcode and doing a 2.0 Zoom really helped...I make the barcode fill the screen and make sure its sharply focused before taking the picture...
...In terms of how to install...i created a folder called Shopping in my Windows/Start Menu/Programs folder and dropped the EXE file in there...You will then see the folder in your Windows/Programs area....i put it in its own folder because it saves each barcode where the program is installed and i didnt want them in my programs menu.
Yeahh....I found a new way to kill time and kill my battery...lol
I've run out of things to scan around the house.
I now know the best prices of everything in my work place...lol
I even depressed a few when I showed them better prices......
Walmart thinks I'm a spy...lol....had to turn of the sounds while taking pictures of barcodes....Security was confused too.....
This really is an achievement! Thanks to the creator of Barcorama.....
To change to shopping in google
The above poster is right, just change search, in the http string to product and that's it. Then it shows you a listing of prices and locations, pretty slick.
As for the person not getting it to work, it won't work if you're megapixels is set to 3MP, I dropped mine down to 1MP and that did it for me.

More things to scan
Hey noellenchris, don't forget all your cd's and coffee table books, or IT books....
I even scanned a can of Progresso soup and it found it. Crazy.

Keep your phone upright when you take the picture. I found if I turned the phone sideways and took the picture, it would not find the barcode. Keep the phone straight up and down when you take the pic.
I changed my camera to take a picture on Touch instead of Touch and Press. Right after it autofocuses, it'll take the picture. Getting much better results this way since when I would use Touch and Press, when I would press to take the picture, my hand would move.
So I am sure that most of the Rapheal/fuze/Touch Pro users have used the Android build on there mobile or atleast read about it at some point. If not, you can read about it here http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=RaphaelLinux
More to the point everytime i want to mess around with Android or show it off to my friends with iPhones i always have to go to the "file Explorer" and then open up "harret" and then it boots into Android. Thats all fine and good. Well its kinda a hassel and would look better/be easier if someone could make a program that would launch Android auto matically from the start menu or in WM 6.5 were all the other applications are kept, after you click it. Rather than having to go to the file explorer and navigate to the correct folder. i think that it would be perfect.
So if anyone feels up to the challenge that would be great, I and many other would be really thankfull!
Requirements
*has to work in WM 6.1 and 6.5
*use this image as the icon http://images.intomobile.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/android-robot-logo.jpg
If you feel like this is a dumb idea sorry i would really enjoy having this tho, well thanks for listening and putting up with all my grammical/spelling mistakes
EDIT so i really didnt know how to explain what i was thinking of but i got it now, Basically i just want someone to Make a shortcut to the Program that launches android with the icon above
You could just make a shortcut and drop it in \Windows\Start Menu\Programs
That would work well too. Thanks for the answer, you mind walking me through how to do that?
just-tap hold on the program, click "Copy", go to \Windows\Start Menu\Programs\ and tap-hold and select "Paste Shortcut".
Ok, i dont know if i could explain what im looking for, but ill try.
I remember, while i use custom R1 and i think even on R2 rom, that when i browse thru file explorer/pictures or any other folder, when you scroll over the image in the right bottom corner use to be a small preview in window. I look at the setup and search here and web, no luck. Its (for me) stupid if they kick that out from rom, or i just cant find that option. Why im asking now after few months, because there is lot of images now in folder and i must take time to find what im looking for, and that reminded me on that saving little window in the corner..
Any ideas?
I hink that is what you are looking for...
Go here
It's an app called "File Explorer Extention" latest version is v2.05, it's freeware btw.
EDIT; Mopral beat me tot it......
Thanks guys, this was quick, thanks a lot...
this is a great addon to the file explorer. Thanks.
