Speaker Icon

pt · #1 (**permalink**) 06-03-2008, 11:28 AM

I had to hard reset my treo 700wx and it removed a speaker icon I had in the taskbar. Now that it was reset there is a battery icon. How do I get the speaker back? I don't really like the battery there, i'd rather have the speaker to adjust the volume. please help me.

I have a Treo 700wx at home... I'll check it tonight and let you know if someone else hasn't already...

Thank you Rainfreak...because I thought no one has a solution to my problem or don't care to share. I figured someone has to know what I speak of, thanks and to others out there....please help.

I didn't completely forget about you... but my phone has been sitting long enough that the battery is completely dead. So I plugged it in to charge a little and then forgot to check it. I will look at it tonight and jump back on tomorrow with an answer.

I think I might be able to dig up an answer that will work on the 755. Give me a bit and let me see what I can come up with.

Check out this thread over at TC. It's for the 750 so it may or may not work. Use at your own risk.

Anyone try this on the 700Wx yet? I've always missed my speaker icon on the top bar and wondered how to get it to show. Once in a while, after installing and uninstalling various software, it mysteriously appears, only to disappear after a soft reset.

The page Coz sent you to sounds a lot like an app I used to use for the same purpose your looking to accomplish (and may be the same one, it was over a year ago). It worked fine on my wx with one exception...as warned in the post, the volume would decrease intermittantly, without pattern. I could have lived with it if it were the system volume only, but it did both system and ringer. I eventually stopped using it opting for the skinning abilities in wisebar to attain a speaker icon. Give it a shot, it may work for you, it wasn't a constant bug on all wx users posting at the time, and quite honestly I thought I was OK with it for the longest time, it didn't start messing with my volume untill a few months after I installed it!! Besides...worst-case scenario is that it starts messing with your volume....you uninstall...no harm, no foul....worth the chance in my book!!

Thanks for the suggestion. I'm trying this (or something like this now) and will see how it goes. [http://discussion.wmexperts.com/show...4#post1458674]
