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.

I removed the following:

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

End result is no tv icon!

If you think you may want the d=services in the future you do NOT need to delete. Just rename them. Like Depend95, put down abc Dpend95, and than save and reset and your set.

When you want to enable it again just do a search for "abc" and you detele abc. Of course you can use any letters you want.

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

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

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.
