WM6.5 Menu Style vs SPB Menu

[rododson]

I am using the MightyRom and like the menu styles (eg: in email clicking on menu and seeing my options). However I like SPB Mobile Shell, except those same menus are now big and "balloon-ish" looking.

If I uninstall SPB MS, my menus come back, so I know it is SPB MS related. Is there a way to maintain the default WM6.5 menu styles?

What the problem is is this - once you disable Manila/Sense, you lose those menus, as they are a function of Sense. You can "tweak" that by going into the registry and editing/creating this key:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\HTCMenus
EnableManilaCheck = 0 (dword)

Give it a few seconds, then soft reset and all should be good. You are basically telling the Manila menus not to look for the program to run, just to go ahead and adapt the menus as if it were.

Thanks, I'll give it a shot.

I had tried HKLM\System\GWE\Menu and setting CUIHandler = 0 but that didn't work.

OK, so the Tweak worked, thank you!

It wouldn't take, then I realized that I needed to set the CUIHandler back to 1.

Been missing the helpfulness of these forums. I had a 6700 that I tweaked then went to a Treo 800w and well, no ROMs were available but now with the TP2, I lasted all of 4 days before flashing...

Again, much appreciated.

For you lazy types. I posted a cab in the other thread I started:

Here's the cab also.

Thanks, I searched for about 2 days but couldn't come up with the terms that found me some answers. I now realize it was because I was assuming the menus were WM6.5 and not HTC. Had things flipped around.

Downloaded the cab for future but the reg edits are just as easy for me too. Thanks again.
