Registry tweak to not show running program name in title bar - Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General

I was wondering how to disable displaying the program name on the taskbar. is there a registry tweak for this?
cuz i'm using an XDAII and there's the signal indicator and i use spb gprsmonitor, which i moved the icon a bit further to the left to make room for the other indicators (missed sms etc. etc.) but then it goes on top of the running programs name, which looks bad.
it's just a cosmetic thing, id rather see the taskbar clean with just the icons and time instead of having the current running program's name on it.
i hope this is doable by registry since i'd really want to try it as soon as possible
Cheers,

I Have the same problem.
No Hack? No idea?

How to make the clock show in the taskbar all the time?

I found the setting to show the clock whilst in a program, and that's nice. However I would like it to show in the taskbar all the time. Is there any way of doing this?
I came across this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/vie...ays=0&postorder=asc&highlight=lvmtime&start=0
But it seems to only show the clock sometimes, and when it is shown the volume icon is shown as muted when it is not.
So does anyone know how to make the clock show in the taskbar all the time? A registry hack perhaps?
Thanks.
the lvm time works fine with me. it just covers the battery icon on the Today screen.
Well as I said, it occasionally shows the battery icon, occasionally the clock - I haven't worked out when it shows which, but it isn't showing the clock all the time for me.
If you use PocketPlus with it's bar-like battery meter, you don't need default batt icon at all
Anjow, I found that my clock was not visible and came here to find a solution. I found this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=278745 and set the registry entry to '1' (DWORD) as it was set to '0' (DWORD). You'll need to do a (soft) reset of your device for this to take effect, but let us know if this does what you want, or what the value is at the moment.

Tray battery icon

Does anyone know how to remove the small 4 segment battery icon from the lower tray in the today screen. I don't really see the point in it existing with the one in the upper taskbar being there already.
I've already checked for running tasks, as well as startup programs for a program which may be creating the icon, but I can't seem to find anything suspicious. I think it must be part of a hidden process which I can't seem to find.
I have searched the SEX1 forums extensively and not founf anything relating to the icon in question. I can try and take screenshots if anyone is unsure about the specific icon I am talking about.
For reference, i'm currently using Norti's excellent "nX1i v1.04" rom.
Thanks in advance for any responses/solutions you may have.
It is there so that if you have the clock displayed at all times in the title bar, there still is a battery indicator (By displaying the clock in titlebar you lose the battery icon). Anyway here's how to remove it: Get yourself a registry editor and set HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Services\Power\ShowIcondword to 0. Then Softreset. The icon will be gone IF it's this one. Of course it is possible that on your ROM there is another software installed which produces the icon, but I don't guess that.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Yay, finally gone!
Thanks for that, it's always the simple things you forget to do, like searching the registry. Now that i've got the panels button mapped to the start menu too, this may well be my favourite device yet. I think I may like it even more than my HTC Diamond...

Taskbar Volume Icon - What Drives Which One is Displayed?

I am using a taskbar icon set that works well with one exception. On my Verizon TP, the taskbar displays the 'Silent' Icon when the phone is set to normal, and displays the 'Normal' icon when the phone is set to silent. What tells Windows which icon to display. Others have found the same issue, so it could be a VZ thing.
I'm pretty sure the icons are in HTCVolume.dll, but I haven't yet confirmed this.
I couldn't find any relevant references in the registry, so this might be coded in the dll???
Can this perhaps be fixed by rearranging the order of the icons in the .dll? If so, can anyone recommend a good app?
Thanks!

Shift taskbar icon

I installed "QuickMenu 2.8" in my PDA, but the battery icon overlaps to the clock on the taskbar. How can I shift the icon (clock or battery, or another)?
Tnx everybody!
Do not know how your taskbar looks like......What I use is Battclock......http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=612083 .....which displays battery and clock above each other but various customizable options are possible. Basically it can cover current icons to give a better look.
Yes you can change position of icons via registry.....see attached example under 4.2 location http://touchlockpro.sourceforge.net/BSettings.html#4.10 ...but I warn you it is quite some manual work......
But you don't knows were could I found the registry value of the wm6.5 tasbar icon? becouse i don't wanna intall the taskbar program raccomanded by you.
Apart from the link I sent you I have not an overview of where to find registry for all other icons you want to move. Did it myself for the battery only.....
But your battery icon was installed by your program...isn't it? If I'll Know where is the value of my icon battery about "Quick Menu" Program, I've resolved my problem!
See if you have in registry HKCU\software\quickmenu. And than you have to find an X or Y indication for position of battery icon......play around with these values to see if it works. Note: soft reset after every change.....
I tried it...the key exists but inside there's nothing that calls to mind the X or Y Icon battery value....sigh!
