This should work for ALL Titan's - 4 icons per row in Programs

2 Attachment(s)

I give credit to XDA for this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...68#post2462768

I took the regedit given within this link and was able to modify it to work with our Titan phones. :headbang:

*After you run the install of the .cab or the .reg you MUST do a soft reset

Here is the reg edit:

Code:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Shell\IconConfig]

"HorizontalIconSpacing"=dword:00000037

"VerticalIconSpacing"=dword:00000046

"IconTitleFontSize"=dword:00000006

Take a look at the image I have attached! :-)

Thank you Colonel00 for taking my modifications and making them into a .reg and .cab file for easy installation.

Thank you GC for finding the error of Icontotalfontsize needing to be Icontitlefontsize.

See the new attached .zip file for the new .cab file.

Re: This should work for ALL Titan's - 4 icons per row in Programs and Settings

I tried this several times both doing the reg editing myself and with the cab file and just changing DWORD values. Neither worked for me. Any ideas why?

Update: For whatever reason, I am not able to add new posts in this thread, but I can confirm that accessing Programs from the Start menu on my phone does not result in 4 columns. I still get 3. I deleted the IconTotalFontSize value that was added, waited two minutes, then soft reset. This did not help either.

Thanks the CAB works for me.

Note: make sure to soft reset to see changes.

Worked for me on manual input of keys and a reset on DCD 3.2.5

When I go into my registry, it shows all the DWORDs and all the values are correct, but when I open, say programs, then I still only get 3 rows.

After you run the install of the .cab or the .reg you MUST do a soft reset

Re: This should work for ALL Titan's - 4 icons per row in Programs and Settings

Yes, after every time I try, I wait about aminute to minute and a half, then do a soft reset. Like I said, all the values are there, but I don't get that 4th row of icons.

kyppcgeek

08-06-2008 05:06 PM

Re: This should work for ALL Titan's - 4 icons per row in Programs and Settings

so you created a new folder and then added the 3 values within that folder?

doylecm

08-06-2008 05:09 PM

Re: This should work for ALL Titan's - 4 icons per row in Programs and Settings

Exactly. I created a new directory called "IconConfig" and the added the 3 values as indicated in your first post, then soft reset. The values all showed up, but I didn't get a 4th row of icons. I have tried several different times and ways of doing this, but nothing has worked.

that is really odd. have you tried to run the .reg or .cab file?

Re: This should work for ALL Titan's - 4 icons per row in Programs and Settings

Stifiling, Yes I am using kitchen 20270. This is a windows reg edit though for the OS and I am assuming all 6.1 should work.

08-06-2008 05:13 PM

Re: This should work for ALL Titan's - 4 icons per row in Programs and Settings

I used the .cab file, but I did not use the .reg file because I don't know how to use it. If you could tell me how, I would be happy to try.

Doly what numeric DWORD values are your Horizontal and vertical Icons and font size?

they should be horizontal 55 / Vertical 70/ font 6.

Re: This should work for ALL Titan's - 4 icons per row in Programs and Settings

Yeah, doesn't work for me either. I'm using default 3.56 sprint rom (not a kitchen). I used the cab file. I've even tried the unthinkable of setting Horizontal to 10 just to see if that would do anything. No dice using basic sprint rom it appears.

And Yes, I did soft reset after each edit. ;)

Re: This should work for ALL Titan's - 4 icons per row in Programs and Settings

I'm not sure why those of you on stock roms are not able to get this change activated.
I am looking into this problem and will post later.

Re: This should work for ALL Titan's - 4 icons per row in Programs and Settings

For those on stock rom.
Run the .cab and let the phone sit for a min. then turn the phone off for 2 min.
then turn the phone on and soft reset.

Re: This should work for ALL Titan's - 4 icons per row in Programs and Settings

Using dcd 3.2.5 and this does not work at all.

I should also point out that there is an error in your .reg file. Your value "IconTotalFontSize" is misspelled as "IconTitalFontSize". It's correct in the cab.

kyppcgeek

08-07-2008 09:07 AM

Re: This should work for ALL Titan's - 4 icons per row in Programs

It appears that I was wrong to include Settings.

I will continue to work on this and find out why others are not able to get this modification to work.

Ok, I've found something else related to your error in "IconTotalFontSize". It still doesn't work for me, but apparently the correct value is supposed to be "IconTitleFontSize". I'm assuming somewhere along the lines, either you or someone else misspelled it as "IconTitalFontSize", and then somehow it became "IconTotalFontSize". I've attached a repacked cab with the correct keys (even though it still doesn't work on my Titan).

Take a look at the xda post again and you'll see what I'm talking about.

Re: This should work for ALL Titan's - 4 icons per row in Programs

If the vertical scrollbar is too wide, it will override any icon settings. If you widen it out to around 18, you get only two columns of icons. I wonder if that's where the problem lies.

gc14	08-07-2008 09:42 AM

Re: This should work for ALL Titan's - 4 icons per row in Programs

The vertical scrollbar doesn't make a difference, but I think I've figured out the problem anyway.

It works fine by using Start->Programs. It does NOT work by using HTC Home's launcher 'Programs' link.

For all the people who weren't able to get it to work, make SURE you update your value to "IconTitleFontSize" = 6, then soft reset. I made a cab a few posts up.

Then go to Programs via the Start Menu and not from any launcher.

Thank you GC.
I have you .zip as the main download now with the fixed reg entry.

I am still investigating why Stock isn't taking the change.
Those that have stock try reducing the Horizontal spacing to 40 and let me know what happens.

So basically it goes down like this. I have tried this on two different Wmo 6.1 devices and it works flawlessly. Install cab. Use a software soft reset like PSshutXP and then waa laa, when it boots your programs now show four icons wide.

Now can we get the control panel to go four icons wide???

Attached is PSshutXP give it a shot.

Thanks for posting this kyppcgeek =)

Re: This should work for ALL Titan's - 4 icons per row in Programs

Those who are running Stock check this reg:

Navigate to HKey_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\GWE\
and tweak the following values.
cyHScr : Horizontal Scrollbars Height in pixels (default is 13)
cxHScr : Horizontal Scrollbars Width in pixels (default is 20)
cyVScr : Vertical Scrollbars Height in pixels (default is 20)
cxVScr : Vertical Scrollbars Width in pixels (default is 13)

I checked my values and it has these changes.

Re: This should work for ALL Titan's - 4 icons per row in Programs

still not working for me. tried colonel's and gc's and neither are doing anything. also imported the reg keys manually and still nothing. does it have anything to do with have some long program names in the start menu?

Try uninstalling whatever cabs you may have tried...and try this cab. Soft reset after it finishes.

Also, make sure you're going into Programs from the Start Menu, not from any launchers or other shells.

*a-hem* I can't help but point out that your "waa laa" is should be "voila", a French word meaning "behold" or "look".

Anyway, this isn't working for me either -- even though I'm using DCD 3.2.4. Yes, I've followed all the instructions precisely.

Re: This should work for ALL Titan's - 4 icons per row in Programs

Alright, well now that we have confirmed it works now....there are 2 things that need to be addressed before I'd actually consider using it.

1. When the fix is applied, scrolling with FTouchSL gets extremely slow and laggy (not kinetic scrolling, just regular)

2. Launching 'Programs' from HTC Home's launcher still shows 3 columns, but from the Start Menu it shows 4 columns. 99% of the time I access my Programs from the launcher and not the Start Menu. Weird.

All times are GMT -4. The time now is 11:55 AM.
