WM6.5 and top right button issue... - XPERIA X1 ROM Development

Hi everyone,
I just installed a WM6.5 rom on my Xperia X1.
UI is really beautiful, thanks XDA-Dev and X1iser for that.
Stability is not great but not worst than original firmware.
Using a soft, I encountered a problem trying to change the settings.
In WM6.1, there is a button in the top right corner of the screen, next to the time and used to check running apps when you are in the phone homepage or to close open application.
I know that to confirm settings changes, the 'Ok' button is located at this same place.
As in WM6.5, taskbar is handled another way, I can't confirm those changes. Maybe the soft is not compatible with WM6.5.
If anyone has an idea, to solve this, he's welcome.
Thanks in advance,

if you install xperia 2 task manager it will work but the text there and the task manager icon will overlap each other, but if you have a rom with the notification screen after you click on the top you may have a problem.

Thanks republicano !
I actually found that one of the hotkeys does what I needed.
But the page you sent is really interesting. I'll take a closer look asap.

How do you get Today Apps starting from the bottom?

Hey guys.
I love this forum and have had a great experience with everyone I have talked to so far. Thanks a lot.
I have not yet found a cab to remove the bottom title bar which usually has touch functions for the two soft keys, calendar and contacts. I am trying to remove this bar, does anyone know of any cabs that can accomlish that? I have only found a cab so far that removes the top but not the bottom.
Also I wanted to know if a program that can place items on my today screen starting from the bottom like an iPhone or LG Prada. I see many people on the Today screen post have that feature but I have yet to find the post where the program or method exist to perform that task. Thanks for your help guys.

For your first request, you can accomplish this with either of the following:
1. Vijay ToggleToday at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=243211&highlight=vjtoggletoday This allows you to toggle the bottom bar, top bar, or both. The latest version does appear to work on WM5 and WM6.
2. Wisbar Advance 3 - this is a commercial app that has a primary focus on task management and skinning your top bar; however a side benefit is the ability to remove the bottom bar.
I have no idea on your 2nd request. Good luck.
thanks for your help with the one issue I am having. appreciate it.
I tried installing Vijay ToggleToday but it could only clear the top menu bar and not the bottom. Have you got this to work on yours? I am currently using WM 6.1 and I think that might be an issue.
Is Wisebar a free program?

commercial app = not free
@Brianlau
Not your fault as a new member, but the matter you raise is not what we consider an upgrading (for which read "development" ) issue. We are currently considering re-naming "Upgrading etc" to something with the word development in it so it's not so confusing.
I will move your thread to the regular Kaiser Forum and leave an expiring re-direct here in case someone is in the middle of giving you an answer.
Cheers
Mike
I just got the app but am unsure which menu or settng you need to adjust in order to remove the bottom section of the soft keys. anyone know?

Hmmmm...I guess I have not tried it on 6.1. It worked on 6.0.
I am assuming you went into the config and specific a bottom bar size of 0.
you can use this i used for a while eith no problems but idk how to start your plugins from the bottom

Change Today Screen Scrollbar Graphics?

I've done my searches (yes more than one, using several key words ) before I get flamed.
Didn't quite know where to start this thread, but it seems software related, so will post here (plus, this forum looks a bit empty )
Onto the issue, i'd like to be able to change the scrollbar graphics on the today screen (see picture below), reason being I have a lot of appointments and stuff so it's almost always there, but it contrasts with the slick look of Dutty's WM6.1. I've noticed Confused Stu's "Mobile Vista" ROM (which is pictured below, great work stu ) has changed the scrollbar graphics, so I'd like to do my own. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
What you see in that image is the TodayAgenda plugin which I also use.
Here is the cab for you.
Enjoy.
Thanks MACKjam, looks interesting.
However, I was hoping to be able to create my own graphics for the scrollbar, in flash/PS/whatever. I'd love for it to be as easy as finding some .jpg/.bmp's and modifying them, but I know it won't be that easy
i ran across this thread and started using that plugin and i think it's great, my only issue is i still get the default today screen scroll bar, so i have 2 including the one in the today plugin. how do i disable the default scroll bar? i've been searching and diggin through registry and i just don't see that option.

Not sure you can, Fix the Height of TodayAgenda in the Layout tab so that I doesn't create scroll bars.

very good thanks. that was driving me nuts.
Way to hijack someone elses thread!
Yeah thanks for that
O/J. but back on topic
Actually - That IS a good plugin!
Thanks!

Button Configuration

Hello everyone,
First off if this is in the wrong thread, please move it. Ok, i am using one of Dutty's Rom's (check signature) and i would like to change the short cut buttons on my today screen, if you look at the pic you will see the left menu is action screen and the right is contacts, is it possible to change what these buttons open, can i use another program and if yes how do i do it
i know this may be a simple explanation but i am sure i have seen how to do it before but can't find it or remember, thanks for any help
you can use the advance configuration tool by schaps, it has the key mapping feature, you can change the right and left soft key applications to be opened.
regards
twisted
fantastic already have schapp's program, works perfectly, thanks for your help

TF3D & Battery Status

Hello guys,
This forum is awesome, it is like make a a wish, and it comes true
now I have a question, the battery status has a great feature of showing the CPU load under the clock on the top bar. thru that i can really see if the device busy doing something!
but this is working only when I disable the TF3D. does anyone know how to get that working with the TF3D?
is it also possible to have the other indicator of battery status, they were very useful. The TF3D is taking the whole screen leaving no space for anything else
cheeers!
as far as i know what you want isnt possible... sorry...
until someone comes up with a modification of tf3d that is...
but until then i`m afraid you must look onto alternatives..
for example:
what i did:
installed mortscript, making it able to run scripts..
installed a script wich made it swap between tf3d and today.
bound a hardkey to this script, whenever i hold down this key is promts me the question to change, if i want, i click ok, and it shuts down tf3d and goed to the original todayscreen... holding this key again it does the opposite.. thus starting tf3d...
now ive got the best of both worlds...
i like this solution far more then secondtoday, this way its even frees up ram because the manilla.exe is really shut down..
all plugins like homescreen++ (formely batterystatus) stay active this way... unlike when you just untick the tf3d in "items" wich will leave yoe with a blank today over and over..
thank you for ur answer, that is also takes time to switch between both applications, the niche thing in the battery status, is just one can see system status without pressing anything!
@ Make a search for " FinixNoverBattery.Cab";see here.
It shows you the status of the Battery and your connection.

yes treu,
but it doesnt show any other information that was already shown in tf3d. only a more precise indicator for the batterystatus..
only way i could think of would be seriously changing the tf3f itself to show some stats... maybe a exta tab could be made by someone...

Hey man
Sounds great.
Can you post the script please
I dont really understand why the TF3D is blocking the indicators of the battery status under the clock on the upper taskbar, they are shown on the top of all windows, not only on the today screen. iam here concerned in the CPU load indicator?
Check
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=401907&highlight=secondtoday
That will be do the trick allowing you to INSTANT-change between tf3d and "normal" today.
The first time you open it all today plugins must be loaded so it takes a little more time (like 4 seconds in my diamond... but the time depends on the number of plugins u want to load) ... but after first load the change takes 0 seconds... u can use a mapped hardware button or through your "most viewed" apps (big icons) in the start menu .... or whatever way ....
I'm using it in my diamond and works perfect !
By the way ... the creator of secondtoday is the same as batterystatus

They are not talking about seeing the status of their battery, they're talking about displaying a software called 'batterystatus' on their today screen
TFT3D & Battery Status
The software batterstatus `now renamed to homescreen plus plus.
With secondtoday and homescreen ++ you can show several systemparameter eg. battery,temperature,hd etc. (see my attachments)

Thats a message from a omnia900 user to ikarus(chi-tai).
I am using your wonderful program on my Samsung i900 omnia. But have the following problem.
In the settings for second today I assign the right soft key to SecondToday. Then I click on Apply to Registry. This works fine and I can toggle between my first and second today screen using this soft key.
You can find more in his forum,see attachment.

Take a look at the SecondToday plugin... If you use the TouchFlo2D settings tool (search the forums) you can make a softkey on the main tab that says something like "Agenda", and link it to secondtoday. Then use an application like G-Alarm and / or TodayAgenda for your today screen plugins. Inside of SecondToday you can set a softkey to "return" to TouchFlo2D by pointing it at SecondToday.exe (this kinda tricks it like the OK button)
This is what I have done, and it's very slick and solved my issues. Hopefully it helps you.
Thank you very much for the help
