How to increase the letters on the start menu?
I have the old start menu view as you can see in the image, but letters are so small at natural
I think I've seen a trick to change the registry but can not find it. Thank you
I don't know if the ones in the menu are changed, but go to: settings - all settings - system - screen - text size. Again, don't know if only the message text is changed or the menu. Sorry if this is not the solution

I think is not a program... Is change some key from registry... I use to have a Diamond and I do but know I can´t find the page with instructions But it can be done.... Sure someone remember the way
HTC have "Enlarge Start Menu" that does that... Never heard of registry settings for it though...
This is what you're after. See attached screenshots to see the difference.
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\EnlargeMenu]
"Enable"=dword:00000001
You have to soft reset the device for the change to take effect.

Hi there - does anyone know how the lowest line of the start screen can be changed i.e. is it possible to change the list of programms which appear ?
THANKS

The Start menu? Sure, start, settings, personal tab, menus. If any appear to be locked (won't let you remove unselect them) then you need to use total commander or equivalent and go to My Device/Windows/Start Menu and delete the unwanted shortcuts. You would then be able to use the menu program above to add in up to seven programs that you want.

I think you mean the bottom line of the Today Screen.
So, you want to change the shortcuts of the HTC Homeplug?
I don't know how to do that cause I don't use it. Maybe anyone knows?
Pls see the file attached - this line below I mean !!!
So you want to change the programs accessed by the soft keys on the Today screen? Vito Button Mapper will let you do this.
Will it work also with Magic Button ?
I'm getting headache with the screenshot
Anyway, I think peter7 meant the Tray Bar program.
I think he is using some Tray Launcher of some sort. Difficult to look at the screenshot.
what the hell did you use to take the screenshot, a Sharpy?
Can you take a better screenshot, this time with a screenshot application that actually takes color images?
anyways, that is one strange looking today screen you got there. What's the icons next to the start button?
I have a problem and cannot figure out how to get rid of the large size start menu. It is overlapping my quick menu... Any suggestions??
I had the same issue. Try this:
click on the upper right corner
click on "preferences"
click on "skins" tab on bottom
uncheck the "use skin file for x/ok buttoms" box
that should do it.
still there...
I tried this and it still looks exactly the same.. Do I have to uninstall the large start menu somehow?
Ok, try this. I just checked and this one did it.
click on the upper right corner
click on "preferences"
in the first tab "gerneral1" (should be the first page)
check the box that says "Hide the task-list when there are no task"
Sorry I didn't get it right the first time. I messed with the setting untill I got it to go away and didn't remember the correct one.
Hope that takes care it it this time.
perfect...
Worked like a charm thank you very much!!!
hi..
hmm.. i can´t answer you question, but i want to say: cool background image and cool HTCHome-Theme
could you send this things to me.. i like that! very nice
here you go....
I picked up the images from this site!!
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=ATOM_USER_THEMES
Just customize the rest...
If you want the same background for your S2U2 Unlock you have to make that file a jpg and rename it to wallpaper.jpg and overwrite the file in your s2u2 gfx directory...
have fun...
Does anybody know how to change the setting for the dialpad during a phone call? I need to have the dialpad on all the time, even during a phone call.
Thanks.

Hi,
KaiserTweak can do it:
Call -> disable both "Fast Sleep" and "Sleep" options!
Try this great application, with many other tweaks!
PS: Nex time, however, use better the forum "search" feature!!
Ciao
Thanks for your help. But I have KT installed and the first two settings are disabled. The only thing it did was solve the phone going black after 10 seconds. My dialpad is still replaced by the status page. And I need to have the dialpad up all the time.
I also check the registry settings that KT changes, and they were changed. So I don't know if this is an issue with my phone or all Kaisers.
Any registry tweak that you know?
oh, i get it........you mean the keypad dont you?

Ok, sorry, but i didn't well understand your bug, or requirement!!
What do you mean for "Status page"??
Can you post some screenshot?
Sorry, again, dude
don't need screenshots, i understand now!
But only one question: after you start a call can you tap the left softkey and show the dialpad? if so, you would like to always show the dialpad tab, and not the status page, also when the call start without pressing any key, right??

I believe this is exactly what he meant, and I for one would like to know also.
Dom; that's exactly what I meant. 99% of my calls I make through my pbx, and because of that, I need to keep inputing numbers. The fact that I need to click on the "show keypad" on every call is annoying and dangerous (when I am driving). Yes, the show key pad is on the left corner, but it would be more convenient to have it on all the time, and when and if I need the status page, I would press the show status page button.
I am sorry I was not clear on my first post.
Thanks.
Make a small start menu.
Is there any cab to make a start menu smaller. Cause i use Davideuck 7.0 and the start menu is quite big for me.

Do you mean the standard Windows start menu or the newer HTC start menu (launcher)? If it is the Windows start menu and the icons and text are just too large you should be able to adjust this in one of two places:
(1) Start -> Settings -> System -> TouchFLO -> uncheck Enable large Start menu
or
(2) Start -> Settings -> Personal -> Large Start Menu -> uncheck Enable large Start menu
Just depends on the rom. I'm not familiar with Davideuck's roms. But the setting should be there in one of the two places...
If you don't have either of those options or the options don't work there is a .CAB floating around that I can post to fix that. Let me know if you need it.
Oh god i think it should be the option 2. Before i only know that i just can change menu size when i did like option 2.
But for david rom actually it is option 1.
Thank you very much

Hi guys!
appart of the known bugs of the still immature os wm6.5, after flashing several roms i still have some annoying things, that probably can be easily solved with some registry tweaks
sadly, i don't know which registry to change, so i am asking for your help:
1. pressing the start menu (left upper corner) the icons from the menu are totaly unsorted. i have a lot of things installed, so i want them sorted, let say, alphabeticaly. is it possible?
2. same start menu - can the dimenssions of the icons be changed? some people may want them smaller and some people may want them bigger.
3. settings menu - if you make a setting modification (through all settings menu), after confirmation you are sent to manila settigs. i want to remain within the all settings menu rather then manila. is it possible?
4. within the mail tab, is it possible to make inbox to be default option when you go to email tab?
thank you!
regards

For the start menu icons (1), you can sort them into folders (normally provided on the roms with nice icons), if you go into file explorer you can cut and paste shortcuts into the different folders as you want

than you have to modify the xml file.
1- copy your StartMenu_GridScene_480x800 to your storage card
2- open it with XML notepad
3- open the submap under StartMenu GridScene find the 3rd image folder
4- change the width and height
5- save and replace it whit tcm
good luck

I know it differs, but in my version of 6.5 - I can press_and_hold the icon in the start menu, and then just move it to where ever I want it.

nope, with rom version i use, when i do that i got just 1 option - "Move to top"
however, even if it would work as in your rom, it is still difficult to sort if you have many apps installed.
i am thinking about something simple - some option or registry tweak that allow to sort icons

O YAAAAAAAAA i just noticed this.....
rambo12345,
Is it possible to go back to the original layout rather than the honeycomb, with the 4 columns, as the honeycomb seems to achieve nothing except wasting screen space and making the icons more difficult to scan visually.
Thanks.
