Get rid the TV icon, for good
 

I used SKTools for this process. All you really need is a registry editor and something that can view the services. Or if you know how to disable services through the registry you can do that too. i did the following steps and did a soft reset and the TV icon was gone from the bar!

Step 1:
backup registry. SKtools have a backup option where you can do a full backup of the registy

Step 2:
Delete keys Launch95 and Depend95 from HKLM\Init folder in registry.
The launch95 key should reference an MFLO exe.

Step 3:
View services in SKtools and set the MFLO_RSSI service to Manual.
This references a MFLO_RSSI.dll

OR

Remove via registry editor
HKLM\Services\MFLORSSI
(Thanks Shemmy!)


Then Soft Reboot and its gone!

I didnt delete any files or services yet before i delete files ill have to make a backup.

The phone started at 50% ram and is creeping up to 60% without those memory improvement cabs for the TP2 installed.

I have yet to test the battery and memory usage over time.

Re: Get rid the TV icon, for good
 

I removed the following:

HKLM\Init\Depend95
HKLM\Init\Launch95
HKLM\Services\MFLORSSI

End result is no tv icon!

Re: Get rid the TV icon, for good
 

Thanks shemmy, added that services to the first post!

hows your memory usage?

Re: Get rid the TV icon, for good
 

It creeped up from ~48% to ~58%, but has been holding steady there, more or less (I've run the other memory fixes).

Re: Get rid the TV icon, for good
 

I did it Shemmy's way, and no icon, but memory is the same. 50% with proxy hack (on reboot), same as before.

Re: Get rid the TV icon, for good
 

thanks! worked good... i had already deleted launch95 and was looking at the dll mflo_rssi. guess i was on the right path but didn't put it together.

Thanks! Maybe I'll make up a .cab for everyone.

Re: Get rid the TV icon, for good
 

Just remember that if u do this, the vcast mobile tv ap will no longer launch properlly, and will error out!

Re: Get rid the TV icon, for good
 

deleted the three registry files and softreset. its gone.

Re: Get rid the TV icon, for good
 

thanks. worked good. I am at 54% ram after a soft reset.

Re: Get rid the TV icon, for good
 

As far as my phone goes (different phones with different apps may be different) it mad NO difference in free ram, but the annoying icon is gone.....lol

Re: Get rid the TV icon, for good
 

I couldnt get it to delete the three keys, Using CERegistry,,Any ideas?

Re: Get rid the TV icon, for good
 

did you delete the key or just the value?
it doesn't let you leave the value blank however i used total commander to delete the keys from the device. when i used cereg i just put in a value of 0.

Re: Get rid the TV icon, for good
 

I delexted the keys using Resco Explorer. You can try PHM Registry Editor or Total Commander.

Re: Get rid the TV icon, for good
 

hey thanks man it worked for me too!

Re: Get rid the TV icon, for good
 

It seems like from what people are saying that if you have the Memory hack installed it makes no difference in ram usage.

I personally dont have it installed and by the end of the day mine is at 61% after using several apps like bing, radio, IE, etc.. which is 10-20% lower for me but ill still give it a few days to verify that.

As for batttery it was at 55% at the first post, now its only at 45% thats only 10% in 6 hours. This is good for me from when i first got the phone. but again ill still give it a few days to verify that to see if its consistent

Re: Get rid the TV icon, for good
 

Works using Total Commander.

Re: Get rid the TV icon, for good
 

Followed the instructions, and the TV icon is gone. Also I went from booting with 70-80% free to 57% free!

I will let you know if there are any ill side effects.

EDIT- I deleted the entire registry key, it will not work if you just set a zero value. I used Total Commander.

Re: Get rid the TV icon, for good
 

I tried to delete the whole key not just the vaule of the key..Ill try a diff tool, Thanks

Re: Get rid the TV icon, for good
 

This brought my starting memory from 53% down to 50%. (I've already tried the two other memory fixes)

Re: Get rid the TV icon, for good
 

Thank you!! Starting memory at 48%. (52% After a few minutes)

Re: Get rid the TV icon, for good
 

I just did the reg remove and it worked great! I've given a thanks to both Cloppy and Shemmy.

Re: Get rid the TV icon, for good
 

works great for me as well. I just deleted the key in registery.

Re: Get rid the TV icon, for good
 

Went from 52% to 65%-68%. Whoa.... Now we just need to get a cleaning guide up to remove all the bloat. The reset before customization trick doesn't work with this HTC phone.

Re: Get rid the TV icon, for good
 

what version of TC do I use for my imagio? what .cab...I take it that the.cab installs to the device not the PC?

Re: Get rid the TV icon, for good
 

http://tcce.s3.amazonaws.com/ce3/tcmdpocketarm.cab

this is for total commander i take it? just go to the link above...

yes, copy to device and run .cab.

Re: Get rid the TV icon, for good
 

got it with ceregistry just had to unlock registry..Icon gone, starting after reset 52%. It will creep but hell no stupid icon...Thanks to all!!

Re: Get rid the TV icon, for good
 

please sticky this post

Re: Get rid the TV icon, for good
 

Anyone notice a performance difference? Not a percent of RAM numbers, but an actual difference in speed? I am suspect of some of these RAM fixes which are temporary and I never notice much of an true performance difference. The icon doesn't bother me so I don't want to bother unless there is a noticeable difference...

Re: Get rid the TV icon, for good
 

I have not noticed any performance gains from this.

Re: Get rid the TV icon, for good
 

Has anyone had their RAM reduced to 5x% witht his modification and without doing the No Push Internet tweak?

Re: Get rid the TV icon, for good
 

Stock with proxy cab, I was booting at 49%

Re: Get rid the TV icon, for good
 

So you didn't do the TV edit?

Re: Get rid the TV icon, for good
 

But he installed the proxy cab tweak (SSK TP2 Dynamic Resource Proxy.cab), which is the biggest drop in memory usage of the few things discovered so far, I believe.

Re: Get rid the TV icon, for good
 

I got similar results after disabling push internet and the proxy fix. Do you have plans to remove the TV and see if you save even more memory?

Re: Get rid the TV icon, for good
 

Ok, I did the edit and along with the No Push internet and the proxy tweak I boot with 48% used. So it doesn't look like it made too much of a difference. It made my phone boot with about 2-5% more RAM. This is a minor improvement, but anything is welcome.

Re: Get rid the TV icon, for good
 

stock booted 60%, i did proxy booted at 49%, i did no push, still booted at 49%, i disabled tv, and still boots at 49%. the only thing that makes a difference in free memory, is the proxy hack.

Re: Get rid the TV icon, for good
 

That sounds about right.

Re: Get rid the TV icon, for good
 

That's what I figured, so I haven't bothered. I have already started to not notice it is even there.

Re: Get rid the TV icon, for good
 

Especially since there is no push internet on the phone and Opera isn't held open. The push Internet tweak is useless on the Imagio.

Re: Get rid the TV icon, for good
 

Yup.......
