No I don't.
I was going to update it with the latest ROM if everything went wrong.

Yeah,... but I've gotten used to the press-n-hold method where a quick press minimizes and a press-n-hold quits the app. I tell ya what would make the QM app a lot more usable, and that would be to install the 'Large Start Menu' option in the settings suit. A lot more thumb friendly when the need to toggle between apps is important. Gotta admit though, after a few hours with QM, it's clear that it's much stronger than x-buttons when it comes to navigation. With x-button, you gotta get to the Today Screen in order make use of it's real power. With QM,... you can get at the meat of it from anywhere by either tapping or holding the Start Icon.

See if you can get that Large Start Menu option in your next version!

well all 6.1 is unoffical & pre-release....what is missing that you'd like? The Sprint stuff is all installed in the post flash customization via cabs, so if there's something you want you can install it via cab.

You can set QM up to close on long-press (thats the default) & minimize on short press.

The Large Start Menu is for the standard WM start menu, but yeah, I'll throw in for those that would like it.

Another nice app I use is AE Button Plus http://ae.inc.ru/aebplus.php I use it to map the left arrow to the start menu for long press, and right arrow to ok/close for long press. so i hold down left arrow for a couple secs the start menu opens, then I navigate where ever.

Wait, I thought no2Chem's version was the official release version...(I can't remember which build) didn't he update it from a leaked release version? Check his thread... am I totally reading it wrong?

##786# isn't working for me.

It shows the phone stats/life stats normally.

It starts popping up and then immediately closes and sends me back to the regular phone function.

(You enter ##786# when "dialing" in the phone feature)

Question.... How do I get rid of the annoying little clock (the one you can switch between digital and analog) in the taskbar?

thejinx0r · #57 (**permalink**) 02-10-2008, 09:12 AM

You click on the time button on the home screen,

Click the "more" tab on the bottom and unceck the display clock...

There's nothing official about 6.1......it hasn't even been release from MS.....like you said, it's a leaked version.

Yeah, I knew this wasn't working, but it didn't work for me on no2chems ROM either, I'll have to search for a fix.

Clock
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Shell\
"ShowTitleBarClock"=1 (enable)
"ShowTitleBarClock"=0 (disable)

but you may start having the dialpad popup issues, that's why I had it set to 2.

Oh sorry, yours was the only one I tried so I thought it was specific to yours...

Anyways, i found a work around.
"##778#" and then view.

This is the first 3rd party ROM I've loaded on my Touch. I'm very impressed with how stable and complete it is! Well done! It's much faster than the stock ROM, and I love the threaded SMS!

My only request would be the big start menu from the Touch's stock ROM. It's easier to use with your thumb... I'm not sure how to install/enable that, if it's possible.

Thanks for all of your work on this!
