Hide Today Screen Lines

From the fine folks at xda:
Quote:
This new registry edit comes much too late, now that everyone is moving away from the today screen to custom interfaces, but for those that prefer the simple and information-centric interface, this new registry setting, discovered in the Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM, will come as if from heaven.
For years the bane of a beautiful Today screen theme was the horizontal lines separating each item. It seems Microsoft has been hiding the setting to remove these annoying lines for some time. The registry edit to remove them are:
In HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Today add a new DWord key with name “HidePluginSeparators” and value 1
Soft-reset after the edit.
This registry edit does not work in all ROM’s and may be a new feature only added in the latest Windows Mobile 6.1 ROM’s. Try it out and let us know the results of your efforts.

Re: Hide Today Screen Lines

You need to make sure you wait a minute or two and try doing a soft reset not by pushing the little button with the sylus. You can hold the power button and it will turn of then push it again...worked perfect. very cool, thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: Hide Today Screen Lines

I think my build is too old.19208

Edit: Just updated to DCD 4.1.2 which is Build 21014 and the registry edit works like a charm. Much Thanks

Re: Hide Today Screen Lines

hey guys, if any of you have sk tools, you can change your plug in lines to the same color as your today background theme. Only if it's a solid color. It works real well. Here's a couple screen shots. Hope it Helps.

Thanks T M Z

Re: Hide Today Screen Lines

I was bored so I made a cab file to preform the registry edit for you.
Enjoy,
