this must install to Main Memory
Nice, but you can add second line with some application description
where to download please?
I'd like to try it, where can I download it??
No download link
download link
sorry, forgot to upload the file
pls check 1st post
it is working on wqvga, confirmed. But a suggestion would be that it can load .lnk too, not just .exe because activesync for example needs to call /remote as an additional parameter to repllog.exe to start in window and not just as a process
EDIT: until then everybody who wants to use activesync in claunch just go to HKLM\Software\Microsoft\CHome\CLaunch\Page that activesync is supposed to be\ and edit ACTIONURL with this string ':MSSYNCAPP' with no quotes
EDIT2: bug report: it seems that it doesn't refresh icons after the first choice. For example i had resco explorer on page1 and activesync on page2 but i decided to switch places for them and now resco has activesync icon and activesync resco's. That wouldn't be weird if i didn't manually chose new icons for each page but they just stay the same. Only after i edited registry and on page1 as an icon put App2 and vice versa it switched them but that shouldn't be like that so I am searching for the problem a little further. If chris doesn't do it first, ofc
LAST EDIT, i promise here are 6 fixed scripts. They have a delay when changing icon, but at least they work now
guess i lied, another edit, scripts now refresh themselves, no delay
Nice app... This was the exact launcher I was looking for.
I have an elfin (qvga) with dsixda's latest 6.5 beta rom and so far its working perfectly (I only tried to add apps and assign icons to them)
the only thing I noticed so far is that if you install it in your storage card you are not able to add any apps to it later (you get an error msg with a countdown button, don't remember the msg now).
great job..
another great work.thanks!
Another CLaunch
You might want to consider changing the name of your app, cLaunch
Thanks, another great work.....
Where to get the mortscript?
It works great!!
Thanks for that!

Very practical application. Love it!!!
Can anyone confirm whether this Panel is working with Miri's 6.5 v10 ROM.
I have tried the other AppLauncher posted on this forum but it just doesn't
seem to be working with Miri's ROM so just wanted to make sure before I install

I was tired of making shortcuts by manual editing, so I made this editor.
The program requires .NET Compact Framework 1 and it was tested on a HTC Magician with WM 2003SE and HTC Polaris with WM6. It has been reported to work on HTC Wizard with WM 2005. Please, feel free to post your experience with different device and operative systems.
Looks great!
I think Odeean did something similar a while back, but beautiful either way.

I tried it on my wizard - wm5 and the app would start but soon as i made any selection an error would come up. see jpg
Nice idea - would like to see working - i am fed up too of manual creation of shortcuts as i forget the syntax :wink:

Hi oruam57 for simple shortcuts program works fine.
More complex shortcuts e.g.
''\Program files\omapclock\omapclock.exe'' -clock 240 -launch ''\storage card\program files\TCPMP\player.exe'' -restore
your program when editing same lnk just shows ''\Program files\omapclock\omapclock.exe'' -clock 240 -launch in target path / parameters
the last section is missed out - i guess a bug?
even when i add last section manually it will not save it.
look forward to comments\update

Good. The parameters can be as long as you like (at least in theory), the problem you found was due to a parsing bug, not to a length limit.
Redowload the current version, the icon browser is there (not fast but working).

The caching of browsed icons (no need to reload them every time if the file is the same), some more testing, then I will pack all in a cab. Thanks for your testing.
Just uploaded an update. Should be in 'release candidate' status.
Improvements: .bak file creation, cut/copy/past extended on all text boxes, browsed icon caching.

The backup is created only if you open an existing shortcut and it is saved in the same directory of the original with name <original name>.bak.lnk
Moreover, only the original is kept, that is if you open x.lnk, modify it and save, x.lnk contains the new shortcut and x.bak.lnk the original ones. From then on x.bak.lnk is not overwritten and when you are satisfied with x.lnk you should manually delete x.bak.lnk
Hope I was clear enough, English is not my mother tongue.

I'm on the minimalist side: no feature/code if not really required. I will put something in the readme of the install pack.
By the way, I made the editor because I, as an heavy shortcut user, really miss it and I expected that many people had the same problem. From the small number of download it seems not so.
Maybe MS was right (as usual) in not including one in Windows Mobile.
O man, thank you very much for this lovely product you’ve made.
I'm in love with it.

Disable touch flo Settings/today/items/uncheck touch flo
Use total commander to move all manila files into the Windows folder
enable touch flo.

1. Disable touch flo to disable-go to Settings select today, select items/ and uncheck touch flo
2. Unzip the files on your desktop computer and Drag the unzipped folder of files you want to copy from your desktop to your active sync windows mobile device center
3 Open the program "total commander" (it is a free program) to move all manila files into the Windows folder. like this: Highlight all of the files with the Total Commander program and press the stylus down on the highlighted files until you see the drop down menu. select "copy/move"
4. Next slect Tree-and then double click on the "windows" folder
select copy or selct move
5. choose to overwrite the files if asked
6. restart touch flo.
Manila files do not have to be removed prior. The Manila files are amazing in function. If you delete them accidentally-they are burned into the rom so when the phone is restarted they will come back. Also if you have have the program Diamond tf3d configuration you can restore your computer to default.
i always use total commander to copy my originals. It is tedious, but I like to hang onto them.
worked perfectly .... good lookin homie... the theme is real nice in every way esp. with the details...

I included it in the zip, but if you want your carrier displayed then do not load that manila file
I will post my edited files here. You can try to install them with total commander. Always disable touch flo first. and remember...if you don't like it just delete the files and restart the phone. The original files will automatically be replaced. That is the beauty of Manila!
Here is a free, open source, wallpaper changer. The screenshots explain what the program can do.
Note: If a phone call is in progress, the wallpaper is not changed (because it takes a number of seconds to change it).
Download. Simply copy it on your Windows Mobile 6 device and run it. (Works on my Polaris.)

Works great, thank you very much.
I'll try it on my Samsung Omnia If I get it right, this app will finally let me set pictures that are smaller/bigger than my sreen with resizing them to the screen size?
THANKs

Awesome!! does it work for wm5? .. dont say 6 only
It should work on Windows Mobile 5 (I haven't tried the latest version), but you first have to install .Net Compact Framework 2 from Microsoft: here.
Windows 6.5 Wallpaper
A good place to get wallpapers is FFFFound.com
Here is the wallpaper that I'm using
http://ffffound.com/image/1833eeacd07acf07502260ed70c5be62af6f9185
Cool...good job!
Cool works great.
It would be awesome if it had a "silent" mode without gui and the wallpaper given by parameters for scripting use.
i.e.
wallperizermob.exe -silent -changeto "/Wallpapers/mywalpaper.jpg"
I know it´s open source but I´m not able to code/compile this feature
Version 1.4.4 works on Windows Mobile 6.5. (Or any other OS where the system's wallpaper files were marked as read-only.)
See the first post.

That is nice, and I'm loving your app! It was quite slow at changing wallpaper at first, but I unchecked all fades/normalizes/sosoes and now it does change pretty fast. Any chance you could add:
a "random picture" setting (not to have it change in alphatbetical order, that is);
shorter change intervals (like 15 mins and 5 mins);
"Load at phone startup" option (I know I can place a shortcut in the windows/startup folder, but I think this is way cooler and can easily be undone!);
And maybe even cab the exe up and get a custom icon?
So far it's the best automatic wallpaper changer for 6.5 Titanium interface!
EDIT: as you can see from my screenshots, looks like we have a couple of glitches... in today screen, bottombar gets funky (looks like it replicates upper taskbar, don't think it should...) and in start menu background remains the one it was there at boot (it changes only after a soft-reset). Think you can sort that out?

I didn't add those settings because the user would have to start the phone too often to see the wallpaper changing. I guess some people might do that just to see a new picture. Also note that this would consume more battery. I'll add these too.

The programming framework doesn't have a way to do that. It could be done but I don't know how much work that would involve... and the development of the program is frozen.

I didn't make a cab because I like my programs on the SD card, being able to run without being installed, so that no matter how many times I hard-reset the device, I will still have the programs ready to run (I don't have to install any program ever again).

The wallpaper pictures are shorter on purpose (and so the OS tiles them vertically). Normally, the today bars are opaque and stretching pictures on the entire screen area would cover a significant part of the pictures; this doesn't matter on a desktop computer, but a PDA's screen is too small (relative to the bars). For now this will remain unchanged.
teorouge said:

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I did that on purpose (but it should not display any kind of picture, or the skin's default picture, as it happens in WM 6.1). On WM 6.1, the today menu doesn't cover the entire screen and when it's opened, if it were to display the same picture as the screen, it would look as if the menu doesn't end anywhere. That's a weird feeling. We'll see how WM 7 will display it's today menu.
Version 1.4.5 is up.
In the "Various" tab there is a check-box to use a random picture.
The background picture of the start menu is changed on my WM 6.1, but only if TouchFlo is not running (I don't know why TouchFlo is not using it).
I have a problem.. not with our program, but with one that we e been trying to fix with roryB on a different thread:
the idea is that the wallpaper would change baed onthe regitry of htc home or manila weather panel and use e riginal weather graphics. there are 40 files in all and they are png's located in windows. we have been able to get mortscrip to change the reg but not the wallpaper.
It has do do the folowing:
1. watch the regitry for changes to the weather update
(the registry updates when you go to the weather panel and it auto updates)
2. based on the updated registry change the wallpaper to HH_WEATHER_##.png
3. refresh the wallpaper on the today screen.
it would be fine if the program copied the image and saved it n a different format such as jpg or gif; howver due to the large filecount t can not have the all 40 weather graphics in a separate folder or have duplicates. that would cost too much space.
RoryB is uing manila 1.5 (update 23) I am uing the mega manila which requres the media package to be able to set the today walpaper... however can be set via the file explorer or any other program for that matter. it does not allow to use the walpaper from the tsk.
my question is: what exactly does your program do tochange the wallpaper?
does it copy the file and rename it?
what actually sets the walpaper and refreshes it?
how can we replicate thi process and make it work?
If you could please let me know via pm or email? please.
Thank you so much, very appreciated!

You can look at the source code, in file "HaraWork \ SourceCode_VS \ Wallperizer \ Wallperizer \ MainForm.cs", the "void SetNativeWallpaper" method.
There are lots of steps and they have to be followed exactly, or else either Windows Today or Manila do not show the wallpaper. Just as an example, Manila refuses to show the wallpaper if the "HKCU \ Software \ Microsoft \ Today \ Wall" registry key is not set with whatever text.
By the way, I don't think PNGs are supported by the OS. You must copy the wallpaper in the "Windows" directory as BMP or JPEG (GIF works too). Note that the file name is specific, you can't use anything you want; "tdywater_[screen width]_[screen height]" is the name. The file name is created in the "string GetWallpaperFileName" method.
(Be sure to remove the read-only attribute of the "tdywater" / "stwater" files before you try to overwrite them.)

Make sure you download the latest version (1.4.5).
Click on the "Wallpaper information" button and see "Loaded pictures". If it says "0" then the program failed to either load the pictures or failed to set any of them as wallpaper (if this happens, they are cleared from the internal queue).
(You could manually set a wallpaper in order to be sure it works on your PDA.)
Version 1.4.7
* Added command line parameters.
* Check the "Portrait and landscape" check-box (from the "Various" tab) in order for the wallpaper to be set for both screen formats (= portrait and landscape). Note that this requires twice the processing time every time the wallpaper is changed.
Hello guys...
as some of you were asking me, how to permanently put QuickMenu in the place of honeycomb, with a RAM return, I'm putting for you a ready to use package for that.
So - first, we're just installing QuickMenu. Easy, normal process, I'm using the same package for two years already Be warned though it requires DelayedExec app, as QM was sometimes causing some problems during a cold boot. If you don't have it, or don't want it, just re-edit LNK file to remove its usage.
Then - it seems QM can't capture "start" word under wm6.5, so we're using a great app named "StartButton" and set it to capture this word and call QM.
Then - hey! Where're some of the icons from the settings menu?... Well - remember some of them were out of their folders? We need to get them back...
In the end... we want to get rid of the honeycomb itself, as it's still sitting in our RAM - almost 2MB of RAM on QVGA! It's a nightmare... how to do that? Easy... just edit proper CPR files and set them to... null text this way system won't be able to prepare a whole scene and won't load those files - returning you all this RAM. Be careful - it's prepared for QVGA, so for other resolutions, you have to re-edit this file and change the filenames in it!
The package contains all those things - preconfigured QuickMenu, fixed settings items in their proper folders (done with a provXML file), preconfigured StartButton and special initflashfiles.txt file, changing the CPR files to the empty ones.
Enjoy your brand new, fast and full of RAM WM6.5!
DOWNLOADS:
1. For the kitchen:
The package in the EXT format for ervius' kitchen can be downloaded from here.
2. For normal users:
2a. twopumpchump compiled a CAB installation, it's here. It fits all the resolutions!
2b. jfrm reedited this CAB, so it doesn't remove the honeycomb. So, if you want, just quit QM and there's your honeycomb back! It's here.
2c. Another version from jfrm - tapping on logo will pop QM, while tapping on the "Start" word will pop honeycomb. It's here.
Man!
last night i was trying to make this works over the START word in task bar... this is great...!!!
BTW do you know how to remove the titanium?
I dont want the whole files, but if i disable chome in sys or bronze or bronzeEA the start wont works and the devices freeze by itself... maybe we couldnt and just need to disable it in today settings and thats all! but it seems that the semitransparent bars gets lost... in that way we can have a full vanilla lots of storage and great RAM with the speed of WM6.5 and its awsome scrolling.
Nice work dude! will try it on my next release as a ultra vanilla!

I've just removed all the chome and bronze packages - and all is working ok
good work
hi friend, ltns just tried the new "old style" start menu and seems to be working great. i did get the popup for DelayedExec since i dont have it in my rom, but i can fix that np. im partial to 6.5 start menu myself, but do you mind if i make a cab, or you can if you want, so some of my users can have this on my 6.5 roms? alot of people still want the old 6.1 menus and this would be great for them

go for it Just post it here.
Just remember to change those cpr files to empty ones, so it can free up ram.
why?
This is to have more RAM but...
The quick menu works fine,
that popup error that twopumpchump say stops to show on in second softreset
but can you see the bronzeres error? both plugins... weather and some other in blank and i have only 12mb of ram... could it be due to lzx compression ?
What else to delete?

Install this one as normal and then manually edit StartMenu_Global_*.cpr and StartMenu_GridScene_*.cpr files
Maybe someone will reedit this cab and include a full set of cpr files. Or maybe TPC has already done this.. just check it

Yes, it's the only resolution-dependent stuff in this proccess
Is it possible to keep both menus working?
I have been thinking to much before going to 6.5 due the lost of QMenu and WkTask. So for me your trick is a very, very good news. Thank you very much.
Anyway, Is it possible to keep both menus working?
In my old Hermes 6.1 I have Original Star Menu set to Ms logo Long Press and QMenu to normal press, and now with the huge memory of my new Touch Pro, will be nice to keep both. One for finger use and the other one for stylus time.
Thanks for the effort.

Yes - just don't overwrite those cpr files...
Wonderfull,
I have downloaded your file, but this look like a cocking packet...
How should I install it in a working rom?
Now it works perfect, only thing is I dont see the time and clock in settings anywhere.

It's because I put it into personal section, and not to system, as it was originally I prefer it that way.
Sorry to bother you again, but I'm afraid that the cab is going to overwrite the cpr files and make me loose the HoneyComb.
It that right?
Remember my fist question here, I want to keep both menus working.
remember to search
Think about this
the cab file can be open with winrar or cabmanager or some more apps so... open the cab file and delete the cpr files... save it and you are good to go...
Be cool man our developers woks hard to get more power here.
Sorry, I don't want to disturb.
My english is far from good and maybe there is some missunderstood.
Will try this way. Thanks.
Black Rhodium 3G Dialer for VGA devices
Update: New signed cab to resolve issues with certificate store and thus execution problems
First of all thanks to amarullz for initially porting the Rhodium dialer to VGA - well almost - as it requires the phcanvga.exe for resizing the dialer screens on the fly which sometimes requires killing cprog.exe and phcanvga.exe with restarting it afterwards to get the sizing correct. Nevertheless on his initial work this cab is based.
Basically what I did was the following:
1. Changed all phone and call log graphics to a nice black/dark color.
2. Added German translation files for the dialer.
3. And most important: Fixed the issue that all newer dialers at the moment have when switching to black, namely changing in call screen text for name and number to white. (This was actually the hardest and most time consuming as it required disassembling and understanding phcanhtc.dll. At the end this took me quite a week or so .)
Okay, and now here's the cab for installing (at least on the Touch Pro with Manila 2.1 installed as this was the device I could test it on).
Here's the english language add-on pack for the dialer as requested
For installation you might have to kill the cprog.exe and eventually the phcanvga.exe process(es) beforehand as otherwise the cab installation routine might not be able to overwrite several files. (I'm not sure about this as I did not really test this).
Pictures of it below!
Anyone who likes the work may feel free to donate a little.
any pictures of this?

As the dialer is not really ported to VGA as mentioned above but resized on-the-fly you might be successful in using it when deleting the phcanvga.lnk from \windows\startup folder and killing the phcanvga.exe process or soft resetting.
Without a running phcanvga.exe the size should be correct for WVGA - I encourage you to try it and give feedback here if it worked.

The link works. You were just trying while I was still changing something on the server - didn't think that the minute I posted here someone would try to download it!

1. Yes, I know, since I made the cab for the Touch Pro, I included phcanOverbmp with added battery level icons. If you don't like it just delete/overwrite the phcanOverbmp.dll in \windows.
2. Uptop? I'm afraid I don't know what you mean by that (I even don't exactly know what the word means and my dictionary doesn't list it ). Concerning the scroll bars: phcanvga.exe is definitely not running? Well, then it seems as if it does not work for WVGA. If you are familiar with replacing single (locked) files in the \windows folder and making registry entries you could try the following:
- First uninstall the cab and reset to get back to your original dialer.
- Extract the contents of the cab to a folder.
- Then only replace/copy phcanImages.dll and all the *.bmp and *.png files from the extracted cab in/to the \windows folder. (You could start by only replacing phcanImages.dll and the graphics beginning with Dialer_ and Assets_, this should suffice for a test.
- Change the following registry entries under HKLM\Software\HTC\PHONE to 0x00ffffff: CallStateRGB,CallerNameRGB, CallerNumberRGB, textForegroundColor.
- Change HKLM\Software\HTC\PHONE\backgroundColor to 0x0.
This could give you the desired black dialer skin. But note that if this works the problem you have with the cab is caused by phcanhtc.dll and thus this solution will not give you white in call screen text as this requires modification of the said DLL.

Get a taskmanager (e.g. fdcsoft taskmanager, which is free and imho very good), look for the two processes and kill them. (phcanvga.exe can also be killed most times by executing it again, though)
Just curious: Did you try installing without killing them and it did not work?
