"\Program Files\WebIS\PocketInformant\PocketInformant.exe"
\Program Files\WebIS\PocketInformant\PocketInformant.exe (no quotes)
\Device\Program Files\WebIS\PocketInformant\PocketInformant.exe

Nothing works!! And I even copied the full path from the shortcut in the Programs menu, it definitely works and all (program/path itself).

Appreciate any help!!

edit: And I did even soft reset in between each alteration...

Try pointing to the .LNK file which exists in your \Windows\Start Menu\Programs\.... path.

My mother has PI9 and uses the LSK all the time to point to the PI9 shortcut.

One other idea, is a program called, "Manila Soft Keys". After you install it, you can use it to set your Softkeys to whatever you want, including shortcuts to installed applications.

Thanks! After getting rid of my Treo 700p, I just gave up on the autologin to voicemail. From time to time, I think "maybe I shouldn't have it autologin in case I lose my phone" but honestly, there's no one that wants my voicemail!

EDIT: Yikes, maybe I should have investigated first - when I put this entry in, I held down 1 to go to voicemail and got some scary message about Virgin Mobile, or something. It was scary, so I hung up, went back to the registry and took out the entry.

Thanks though

The *86 may only be for Verizon...

Try keeping everything the exact same, except instead of *86, put your 10-digit phone number without any dashes (like this: 1234567890pXXXX - where XXXX is your password)

[PPCFreak]

are some of these 2.5 specific?

If so, would be nice to note if its 2.5 manilla specific.

Thanks.

Think I just found another one, but need someone to verify:

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Backlight]
"KeyLightAutoSensor"=dword:00000000 Disable backlight on keyboard out

It works on mine, but I'm testing something for someone, so not sure.

It seems like nobody can give an answer about how to configure "X" to close all the apps instead of sending them to the background, I found this post on another thread but I got stuck here...


User: chas123

If you are using the HTC task manager (drop down in upper right corner) you can set the x button to close Opera by going to:

HKCU\Software\HTC\TaskManager\TerminateProcess

if the dword "Opera9.exe" exists set its value to 1
if it doesn't create the dword and do the same.

There are cabs around to do this for you if you do a search.

Me:

I can't find this path

HKCU\Software\HTC\TaskManager\TerminateProcess

I only found

HKCU\Software\HTC\TaskManager\

Do I have to create a new Key with "TerminateProcess" as name?

I figured out that if I create a KEY named "TerminateProcess" and I add inside this KEY a DWORD named "AnyAppNameYouWant.exe" then it might work but I haven't tried it yet.

...or if you want the actual regedit to do this (since that what this thread is technically for ), make this edit:

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\TaskManager]
"Enable"=dword:00000001
