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?
When I press the rotate screen button in HTC Home, it rotates clockwise to landscape. That's the opposite direction of my keyboard. So then when I slide out my keyboard the screen has to flip over. That just seems silly.
Is there a way to make rotate screen rotate counter clockwise instead to match the keyboard orientation?
Thanks for your help!
Try Start>Settings>System Tab then Screen and check the orientation landscape of you choice to rotate the screen the way you want. Then go back and switch to portrait. Now when you select rotate it should remember the last setting. This works for me.

I just tried that but it still always rotate clockwise which is upside down.
Sorry, it was worth a try, it works for other apps that I use but I should have mentioned that I don't use HTC home so hadn't tried it there.

Make sure to apply the setting after you change to the orientation you want. Then, after that, you go back and change it to Portrait and apply that setting. After that, it should switch to what you chose when you press your dedicated button.

I'm missing something. I go to screen settings and select Landscape Right Handed. Then I select OK. The screen turns counter clockwise just like I want. Then I go back in and set it to Portrait and hit OK. The screen goes back to the portrait view.
Then when I hit rotate screen on HTC Home or the Cube, it rotates clockwise again and is upside down.

Ahh...I thought you had a button mapped. Well, in that case, you may have to check the settings on HTC Home or Cube. I don't use any of the two. Sorry!

It uses the same Rotate Screen feature as button mapping does. Just to test, I mapped my Internet button to Rotate Screen and went through the same process. When I press it, it still always rotates clockwise. If you could help me figure out how to get the button mapping to rotate the other way, I'm sure it would work with HTC Home as well.
Thanks!
The problem is it wants to rotate clockwise be casue there are two diferent priorty rotation events. Rotation with the KB closed goes clockwise because it follows the camera rotation rule (rotating so the camera button is on top). It seems it could be done by isolating the call madwe by opening the KB. I use the HTC tray app & that allows rotating either way with multiple pushes.
You could use the action send funtion with a "rotate left" command, but you'd have to edit the HTC Home ini file. Or use the home customizer & point to a shortcut that is an action send Rotate Left. If you want I'll build the file for you with instructions, but you'll have to place the file in your \windows\start menu\programs folder. Or wait until someone better than I has another solution.

Sounds ideal. That way the Camera button could still rotate the clockwise and the HTC Home button could rotate counter clockwise. Where do I find the HTC Home ini file to edit it?
Thank you so much for your help!
I cannot find an HTC Home ini file to edit nor can I find any default action for "Rotate Left", only "Rotate Screen". I tried HTC Home Customizer to see if there was a default action in there and there was not.
I hate to ask you to make files for me, but I'd really appreciate it.
My bad, there is no ini file It's all in a dll I believe. You can do it thought, but you will have to use the HHC home customizer for it to work with the file I create. I try to do it tonight.
I downloaded HTC Home Customizer a few minutes ago. Thanks so much for your help. I think this might be a popular request. I like to use the Kaiser in landscape whenever using GPS (which is frequent). It bugs me that I have to flip it upside down to get the keyboard open to answer a text message. Having it face that way already would be much better. You are AWESOME in my book for even being willing to try. I can't wait to see the result.
Thanks!!!!
Check your PM's. If it doesn't work I may have to edit it. I hacked it up quikly.
My just worked after changing the setting as mentioned earlier in this thread, it did revert once when I started Tomtom but just quit and restarted with all being well again.
Same problem here. Funny thing is, that I have a program (came pre-installed) called "HTCHomeplug" where the screen rotates in to both landscape directions by default. However, "HTC Home" program only does the one direction (and not the one I am looking for!).
Makes me wonder if I have the latest version of HTC Home?
Maybe this can help a little?
simple compact framework program, no gui, just rotating screen:
if screen rotation is 0 it will be changed to 90
if screen rotation is other than 0 it will be changed to 0
program isn't very fast (.net...) but fast enough to be usefull
if anyone need source code (10 lines or compiled version with diffrent rule/angle/whatever just let me know
SPB Pocket Plus includes shortcuts for rotating the screen either way. I just assigned rotate right to one of the HTC Home program shortcuts. Now I can press the default landscape shortcut to rotate left and the SPB one to rotate right. I realize it's a paid solution but it does work and there are other benefits provided by SPB Pocket Plus as well.
Fast but not fixed to 1 rotation
i hope i will still get reply for this.
I downloaded this in 1 of the thread.
It is so fast for screen rotation. however it goes all the 180,270 then back to the portrait display.
Is there anyway to modify it so it can only rotate in 1 angle, being just as fast in rotation?
Thanx

Could you please make this app rotate screen from 0 to 270. If you would upload it here, I would really appreciate.
Thanks

Hi
We are about to write some tests is uiautomator. For this test to work I need to open the drawer and then our app but I can't do this without knowing the name of the button I want to press. Generally we can check this through Ui Automator Viewer in the Android SDK, but we have no Xperia at our office right now so that is our of the question right now. I tried to install the Xperia launcher on a non Sony device but for some reason it's impossible to inspect everything that is related to the Xperia launcher. Settings, the notification bar etc plus other launchers has been working fine but not this one.
If you have a Z4, Z3 or similar, the SDK and one minute to spare I would be very great full if you cold check this for me. Just connect your phone to your computer, run uiautomatorviewer from SDK/Tools. Press Device Screenshot in the upper left menu. When your home screen is shown in uiautomatorviewer press the drawer button. Then take a look at the item that got selected in the tree to the right. Screenshot everything or just write down the name here to make my happy :fingers-crossed:
Hi,

Kind regards

It is the Wallpaper Carousal. It basically lets you select sime pictures for the lock screen wallpapers and keeps playing them like a slideshow.
