Are you saying there is a version of Vijay's TodayToggle that only affects the today screen? As in, the start bar is not there on the Today screen, but appears while running a program (similar to dcinobar's behavior)? The version I tried (thought it was the alphaII version for WM5+) would hide the start bar, but it did it everywhere, all the time. Made programs look kinda funny, and wrecked the ability to use task managers to actually close programs. I heard that he was working on new versions, but that was a long time ago and I haven't seen any update in a long time.

Will you post the version you're using if you get a chance? I could deal with it closing when screen orientation changes.

Usually, once I get my phone just how I want it...it craps out on me and I get a different phone. It happened with my 6700, I got a 6800 and now have it set up just how I want it. I am being very, very careful so I don't screw up this phone.

Man, I don't get you guys :P

Upon setting up my phone the way I wanted it I danced a jig of joy! Tweaking, while initially fun, is a huge time sink and couple that with crashes or other problems and it's hellish....stability was my end goal and now that I've reached it I'm as happy as a clam.

i look at this issue pretty much like the 'uncanny valley' in computer animation and simulators... the closer technology brings you to automating and easilly setting up your phone, the less satisfied we ultimately are with finding that 'perfect' setup. Every time i get wm5 nailed down, wm6 comes out, then 6.1, then dcd, or no2chem keep improving and refining the process....

long story short, i just accept that i'l always be tweaking and fixing and upgrading and flashing... i dont even 'want' to find the perfect setup now lol.
