There was the better laid out one that was the default when I used VZG's built ROM. With the kitchen I am not sure what option to choose to get this back. I guess the Wireless Mgr in the Connections screen can be changed?

2) On the top of the Home Screen there used to be a battery meter that was next to the speaker icon. This was available when using the built ROM. With the kitchen this is now replaced by a time icon. What option do I pick when I am using to the kitchen to get this back?

3) Is there a way to save the options picked in the kitchen, so that it can be compared from version to version when the ROM is built and installed? That would be very helpful.

VZG keep up the fantastic work. This is really getting good, and now with your decision to not develop the i760 I am going to work with the 6700 for a bit longer.

Thanks,
Steve

1. Not sure here.. I haven't built a rom based on 0.6b yet as i just now read through the post again to see that it was released, but the 10-Button comm manager should be the same one in helmi's original WM6 release and that is the default option in BuildOS when I opened it.

2. This the regedit for that:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Shell]
"ShowTitleBarClock"=dword:00000000

When the clock is disabled the battery icon shows up. I plan to make an OEM for this that will have a high GUID to overide any other OEMS.

3. At this time no.. this is an old horse drug through the mud and beaten again and again.. I remember a movement to get the source code from Bepe or to try to reverse engineer it but I'm not sure what ever happened to that.

Hey Verizonguy ... great build with 6b ... but I have a little request. I know you have your hands on the i760. Would it be possible to pull the today screen plugin from it .. the little digital clock plugin. From the screen shots Ive seen it looks pretty cool and doesnt take up a lot of realistate.

I'm just trying to see if I can ween myself off of HTC Home as I love the new one line notification plugin you added.

Thanks for all your effort. Your making my wait for the xv6800 very pleasant!!

When you build with 0.6b you will see the Comm Mgr in the Settings tab is the default one that came with a vendor ROM. When I used VZG's built ROM this was not the case and the nice 10 button Comm Mgr was default. I am hopeful to find out how to get that back since it is much better!!

Regedit for clock and battery worked like a champ...thanks!

Too bad on the saving of settings. I am really into the kitchen now and wanting to learn all I can. I have begun to add my apps to the kitchen and am getting very positive results so far.

The download is via ftp protocol. It is possible your browser is having an issue with it. Download an ftp client if you have to.
server: up.ppcgeeks.com
port: 21
user: ppcgeeks
password: ezupload
go to the apache folder, then kitchens folder.

For an ftp client, if you can acquire a copy of cuteftp, that is what I use, but if you want a free one, this will work:

Is there a way to shut off word completion?


Thanks

1) There are 3 different versions of the comm manager in the kitchen. Simply check off the one you want and uncheck the other 2. The newest 10 button one from the Kaiser is already selected by default, so you shouldn't have to change anything.
2) You are confused about the wireless manager. You have both the wireless manager and the comm manager. The wireless manager is accessed via the settings->connections cpl. The 10 button comm manager is accessed via the htc home plugin, or via a tray item that I have left disabled. Click the icon to the right of the sunshine icon, then click the icon in the top left corner.

Using the registry editor included in the Optional_VerizonguyApps package, change these entries:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Shell\
Change ShowTitleBarClock to 0

If you want the icon in the tray at the bottom instead:
HKEY_lOCAL_MACHINE\Services\Power\
Change ShowIcon to 1

I plan to change this in the next version to show the battery by default as that is how most phones ship by default.

Yes and no. To change an oem package to be selected or not by default, edit the option.xml file in the oem directory with wordpad.
Find the line that reads:
Quote:

<Item name="Spetrillo's really cool OEM package" group="OEM" checked="False">
If you want the package to be selected by default, change it to checked="true" and "false" to not be checked off by default.

Bear in mind, if you upgrade to a new kitchen, any oem package preference would be lost except any custom oem ones that are not included in the kitchen by default.

Thanks. Yeah, I'm going to give the xv6800 a shot at soft launch.

Yeah, under setting/Personal/Input/Word completion.

Has any body been able to fix the latest Live Search ?(the one with the gas prices)
Seems like a similar problem with the Live Update under settings.

If you have a mms and an sms waiting for you, you are entirely too popular and should turn off your phone right away and only use it as a pda :toothy7::toothy7:
