Re: THREEFACES' Walk-Through: Installing/Customizing the latest NRG ROM [2.5 Edition]
28xxx VS. 21xxx
This section contains information for the 28xxx builds that does not apply to 21xxx.
Things to know:
--Taskbars that work for 21xxx will not work on 28xxx. Make sure the taskbar you're trying to install is compatible with your build.
--21xxx is reported to be more stable. 28xxx may be faster and may have better battery management.
--there is no "X" button to close programs in 28xxx. Closed applications will continue to run in the background. To close out of programs completely, they need to be killed in the Task Manager or by using the included Quickmenu software. There is information on Quickmenu below.
QUICKMENU – WHAT IS IT?
Quickmenu is a feature in the ROM build that replaces the old task manager/”X” button. To launch Quickmenu, touch the area where the Start button used to be [you may need your stylus]…a “quick list” very similar to the old WinMo start menu will display. You can adjust some options in QUICKMENU-OPTION.
MAPPING QUICKMENU FOR QUICK ACCESS – QuickMenu is a great addition to the ROM, but we don’t want to have to pull the stylus out every time we want to kill some running programs, so we’ll want to create a shortcut that’s a bit more finger-friendly. First, open up QuickMenu [click where the old “Start” button was] and go into the “Option” section [QuickMenu-Option]. Move over to the “Command” tab. Highlight “QuickMenu” in the list of Programs and Actions and select “Create Shortcut”. This will display a folder view where you can configure where a shortcut to this program will be listed in the START Menu. With a link in the START Menu, we’ll be able to map this to a hardware button [long press of the send key].
To set QuickMenu to a hardware button:
Go to START-SETTINGS-PERSONAL-Buttons. Here you can set a long press of the send or end keys to bring up QuickMenu, instead of the Task Manager.
