This application is provided "as is" with no expressed or implied warranty. The author accepts no liability if it causes any damage to you or your windows mobile device whatsoever. It's a free application, and it should be considered as such!
=== DESCRIPTION ===
CMSettings was created to make the Comm Manager customization easier.
It allows the user to change between available stiles (skins), and select the desired Comm functions to use.

}
=== SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS ===
- .Net Compact Framework 2.0 or higher
- Comm Manager
=== HOW IT WORKS: ===
When the application starts, it will search the Windows folder for available skins. With this we can prevent applying a skin that doesn't exist.
It also makes a backup of your present Comm manager settings (see ROM default settings), in case you want to go back.
After this is very simple. Just select one of the available skin, change the functions to your likings and apply changes.
There's no need to terminate the Comm Manager process, as the application will do it for you.
=== ABOUT THE SKINS: ===
Default Skin - This skin will always be available since it belongs inside the CommManagerRes.dll(this file is necessary for Comm Manager to work, so...)
It supports from 4 up to 12 functions.
Touch Skin/Large Buttons Skin - This skin will be available, as long as the skin files are located in windows folder, and it has skin files for a minimum of 8 functions.
It supports 8 or 10 functions. When the user selects this style (skin), a popup window will appear to let him/her choose between 8 or 10 buttons.
(its up to the user to know which option to use, according to the files he/she has put into windows folder)
If the user wrongly selects the number of buttons to use, just select the skin once again and the popup will appear again.
If the skin files are the ones provided by HTC the user can quickly get the HTC settings by selecting the menu option "Default Settings".
If the option is not selected, when applying the skin, a popup will appear asking if the user wants to apply the default settings(if you have customized the skin for different settings, just press NO and the user's settings will be applied).
Touch Dual Skin/ON/OFF Buttons Skin - This skin will be available, as long as the skin files are located in windows folder, and it has skin files for a minimum of 6 functions.
It supports 6 functions only.
=== ABOUT THE COMM FUNCTIONS: ===
To select a function, just tap once.
To enable/disable a function, tap twice. If the function is already selected, the user just have to tap once and it will be enabled/disabled.
when the function is enabled, the user can see a green icon on the left side of the function text and the text will be black.
when the function is disabled, the user can see a gray icon with a red cross on the left side of the function text and the text will be gray.
When there are not files for a funtion in the selected skin, no icon will appear on the left side of the funcion text, the text will be gray, and the user will not be able to enable/disable the function.
=== ABOUT THE MENU: ===
About - A popup will appear showing info about the program. To close it just tap the popup.
Language - Here the user can choose the application language. If the desired language cannot be found in the list, the application can still support it. The user needs only to edit the CMSettings.ini (for more info on how to do this see "How to edit the .ini file").
Default settings - It can be used in all styles, but the best use of this function is when "Touch Skin/Large Buttons Skin" is selected, to apply HTC Settings (since when using the HTC skin, the functions must be in a specific order, so the background doesn't get messed up)
ROM Default settings - On first run, the device backs up the existing Comm Manager settings. This option is used to get those settings back.
Apply settings - Use this option to apply the changes made to the Comm Manager settings.
=== HOW TO EDIT THE .ini FILE ===
The application is provided with a few .ini files containing the following languages:
- English
- Portuguese
- French
- Dutch
- German
- Italian
- Spanish
- Slovenian
- Vietnamese - (This language will only fully work in ROMs that support the language)
- Russian - (This language will only fully work in ROMs that support the language)
- Czech - (This language will only fully work in ROMs that support the language)
- Arabic - (This language will only fully work in ROMs that support the language)
- Simplified Chinese - (This language will only fully work in ROMs that support the language)
- Norwegian
If the user's language is not yet supported, it can easily be added by translating one of the existing languages.
To do this, open CMSettings.ini with a text editor, copy all lines from one language, and translate all the strings.
If the user's language needs special text encoding, make sure to save into a separate file.
Finnaly copy the new .ini to the same place where CMSettings.exe is, and restart the application.
Now the language will be available to be selected.
=== NOTES ===
- Not all CommManager.exe versions support all skins.
So, if the user has the necessary skin files, applies changes but cannot see the skin or the skin doesn't display correctly maybe a different CommManager.exe version is required.

I know that, but with advance config you can apply any skin even if you don't have the necessary files for it to work, causing a black screen comm manager.
Lets just say I wanted to provide a SAFE stand alone application to make Comm Manager functions and style selection easier.

The program does not include any skin. You have to add the necessary skin files you want to use. After you do that, if all is ok, the program will let you choose the skin.
I'm very impressed, it's quite beautiful. I was pissed because the 8/10 button Comm Manager's black color clashed with the rest of my theme. Now, it looks great Thanks!

This application lets you customise your HTC's spinning 'cube' faces in many ways, changing icons, layout, which applications are launched, etc. You can change the following:
- Your Music/Pictures/Video programs (change which apps and titles)
- Your 3x2 APLauncher on the cube (change the apps, icons and titles)
- Layout of your APLauncher; positioning of icons, etc*
- Additional APLauncher Cube faces*
- Your Weather Location to be far more specific (i.e. not the limited in-built city selection)
- Your weather options (auto-update settings, etc.)
IMPORTANT NOTE: The app is no longer being developed - see this post. However, you may still request support from other kind users on this forum thread and I can confirm that it works well on the HTC Touch GSM (Elf). Users have also had success using it on the Sprint Touch, Vogue, OKTA, Touch Dual and Polaris, plus other mobile devices that have HTC TouchFlo correctly installed on them.
See the screenshots below for more info.
A lot of this is achieved via registry changes, on older HTC Touch devices (e.g. GSM Elf), a patched version of mediahubmini.exe is installed due to limitations of the in-built applications.
Installation instructions - Version 2.0 Onwards:
1. Copy the CAB to your device and run it.
Installation instructions - Older versions (before 2.0)
1. DELETE the file MediaHubMini.lnk from your \Windows\Startup directory and reboot... OR just terminate the process MediaHubMini.exe using memmaid, SKTools or another program.
2. Install the attached CAB file.
3. Run the app. (Start Menu -> Programs -> Touch Settings)
4. Click 'Save', reset again (close all apps, and power off your device properly first - otherwise changes may be lost!) and now your changes should be active.
Troubleshooting / Bugs
- If you enter an invalid path, then when you click Pictures or Videos, the device will freeze and you will see the spinning egg-timer forever. Reset, load the config app again and double check you have got the EXACT path to the executable correct.
- If you get an error that you could not install the cab because of "insufficient system priviledges / insufficient system permissions:
- Look into the settings of your device security model - check out this post for more information, or download Microsoft's Device Security Manager to alter your settings.
- Try the manual install version instead. See post on page three as well.
Feedback always welcome, remember this is a beta, so back up your files, and if you found it useful, do consider buying me a beer!

Acctualy,
if you have a ROM that already included any version of "biotouch settings", you can also install this, just by deleting the link (as in the instructions) in Windows\Startup and reseting.
Cheers
EDIT: it doesnt work very well.... try it at your own risk.... not recomended!

Thanks for this - I've had a look and you're absolutely right. The weather lists come directly from the accuWeather.com website, and they use a different system for North America. In fact, it's easier for me to just build the XML file into the app as there are incompatabilities with their 'zipcode' format and some of the home plugins.
Please try the new version v1.22 of the app and you should be able to select from many US cities. (Install to storage card perhaps as it's a bit larger now)

No! Please DON'T try to install using this method!. This version uses a different patch of mediahubmini.exe, so it WON'T work properly. In particular, the choice of "Other" for your music app won't work if you do it this way.
That's precisely why I wrote the installation instructions the way that I did.
Please could you edit your post to discourage this, as I don't have time to deal with the support requests that it would cause.
Just what I was after.
Thanks

thanxs bro nice apps
Excellent app, one question though...
is there an option to reset everything back to default? Don't say "Hard reset" ;-)
Just wondered as I changed my cube long ago and then thought "Damn, should have made a note of all the default parameters"!

There is a default package in first post. "MediaHubMini_Original_Unpatched.zip" to be exact. That should put things back to default if I understand correctly.
Great app. loving It. Could someone owning a nonbranded htc touch please post all the blue cube icons so we dutch t-mobile touch owners can get rid of the hideous pink and stupid web 'n walk icon. Cheers
Not quite
The media hub is one thing but the cube is another.
It had some parameters which I didn't make a not of before I changed apps and icons

Is this the SPB Today Plugin? I like the layout. I have this software but have not loaded in on my Touch. What profile software are you using?
A variant of notiweather_wallpaper by superflysocal
So first I want to say tanks you to superflysocal to give me the idea of this release and allow me to use the wallpapers he use for his application.
When I saw is application I wanted to do the same with HTC Home Weather without using S2U2.
So my application read the HTC Home Weather and change the background wallpaper today according with the last weather update.
It's made when you power on your PDA if the weather have change since the last time you powered on.
Maybe if someone wants it I can make a timer to to this too.
This application will change both your landscape and portrait background.
I use the portrait jpg from superflysocal post and modify him landscape to put them in 320*240 so you could replace them by what you want.
It using MortScript and you're not obliged to install MortScript, because my cab include the MortScript.exe and exe files to launch scripts.
What do you need ?
A PDA with WM... Working on WM6.1, don't know on others.
A HTC Home, don't know issues about the version, working on the HTC HomePlug 2.1.1005.722
There are 3 scripts :
* Start.exe
This one save your current backgrounds (landcape and portrait), write into registry to be clean with the Settings/Personnal/Today "Use this picture as the background", so you can see if my application is running and write and Run On Power On event.
* HHW2BGD.exe (linked as Refresh)
This one is the application core, so it read the weather registry and if it see differences since last launch (written in registry as key_old) it search the good jpg and make it as background (landscape and portrait) and lauch a refresh screen (for now I'm using a exe which make it because the command doesn't want to work good in MortScript language...help !!!). This exe was extract from the cab found here but I don't know who make it ??? Thanks for him, very great exe.
* Stop.exe
This last one is used to end up this application, it stop the Run On Power On event, eventually kill the script if running, replace the original background and delete the registry entries made.
What will be install ?
* \Program Files\toniolol\HHW2BGD\
It contain the 3 scripts and 5 exe (3 for the script, 1 for MortScript and 1 for the refresh).
* \Program Files\toniolol\HHW2BGD\BackGrounds\
It contain 3 directory : one for your backup background, one for the landscape and one for the portrait.
* Start/Programs/Weather/
It contain 3 links to Start/Stop/Refresh the application
This application is a beta and so use at your own risk.
Just remember : before uninstall it use the STOP.EXE in the Start/Programs/Weather menu.
If you forgot, the Run On Power On event will stay so you have to destroy him using an software like "check Notifications" or launching the Stop script again : you'll find it with the cab at the end of this post.
Current version :
Version 0.1
This is the first release.
It change the background landscape and portrait when your Power On your PDA and when HTC Home Weather have changed.
Working on :
Tested on TRINITY with FInixNOver 3.2 and 3.3, WM6.1, HTC Home dll v2.1.1005.722 and v2.0.1025.721.
TODO :
Script the TodayRefreshCmd.exe.
Force to update the weather.
Bugs :
I think this application will only works on PDA with 320*240 and 240*320 resolution. maybe it's possible to have configuration files for others.

I have a bug.
TyTN WM 6.1
After Start script PDA is stopped.
Soft-reset help only.
Ok...I've made a bug TyTN software...
Could you tell me some things please :
* when you said stopped, what do you mean ? It freeze or power off ?
* Do you see the dialog box said you that the software is on ?
* Do you have in your windows directory this files :
"\Windows\stwater_240_320.gif"
"\Windows\tdywater_240_320.gif"
"\Windows\stwater_320_240.gif"
"\Windows\tdywater_320_240.gif"
* When you start after the soft reset do you have some error message ?
* May you manually launch the "TodayRefreshCmd.exe" located in \programFiles\toniolol\Weather to see if it stop again
* do you install on device or SD card ?
Thanks for your help...sorry for all this questions
I think it's not a resolution bug because we have the same display resolution.
Could you tell me some things please :
* when you said stopped, what do you mean ? It freeze or power off ?
In HTC Weather update
* Do you see the dialog box said you that the software is on ?
Yes
* Do you have in your windows directory this files :
"\Windows\stwater_240_320.gif"
"\Windows\tdywater_240_320.gif"
"\Windows\stwater_320_240.gif"
"\Windows\tdywater_320_240.gif"
Yest to all.
* When you start after the soft reset do you have some error message ?
No, but wallpaper is changed.
But it is not changed again after
Soft-reset, HTC Weather update, Start, Stop, Reflesh
* May you manually launch the "TodayRefreshCmd.exe" located in \programFiles\toniolol\Weather to see if it stop again
Yes! When I run TodayRefreshCmd.exe - Today is changed!!!
* do you install on device or SD card ?
Device.
I have idea!
Before I don't use MortScrint.
When I launch in \programFiles\toniolol\Weather MortScript - it is say than now file type asociated.
Now your great program work without bugs!
1) Sorry, I haven't understood all, what the state of you PDA when you said your PDA stopped ?
2) So after the messageBox said that the software is on the wall paper change ?
3) And you said that it doesn't change again after, does the weather had changed ?
4) And if you launch the "Stop" do come back to your default wallpaper ?
5) Or do you have error message ?
It's strange, I thought that it was no necessary to have mortscript if the exe is in the directory and the autoexec.exe rename in ScriptName.exe.
I'm sorry, I must make a hard reset to test but I thount I never install mortScript on my PDA.
Some others people had this problem ?
Thanks for helping me debug this v0.1 release !!!!
:-( Sorry for my bad English.
1) Sorry, I haven't understood all, what the state of you PDA when you said your PDA stopped ?
When I try to update weather (Start ON)
2) So after the messageBox said that the software is on the wall paper change ?
No, it isn't change. But when I run the mortscript manually - it work! (and changed)
3) And you said that it doesn't change again after, does the weather had changed ?
Weather is changed, wallpaper it isn't. Now it is changed.
4) And if you launch the "Stop" do come back to your default wallpaper ?
No.... It isn't. I stay on prerious weather wallpaper.
5) Or do you have error message ?
No No error messages.
Device stopped again.

Hi,
What is your OS and your device ?

Hi,
it's PhoneWeaver, very nice and usefull software !
But keep your work!
For people who have problem could you give me the # of your HTC Home please ?
It's on the "HTCHome.dll" located in the "\Windows" directory.
To have it I had to copy this file on my computer and right-click on it after.
Mine is : 2.1.1005.722
And if you want to send me an extract of your registry for HTC Home...thanks !
All keys in : HKLM\Software\HTC\HTCHome\Weather
I'll get that info on the dll file too because nothing happened but it is showing your background as being used....
Hi,
I'm testing it on the new FInixNOver 3.3, and it works good.
The HTC Home dll is sign : 2.0.1025.721.
I'm thinking to make a special script with debuging create file is someone who have problem want to test it.

Step-by-step guide on flashing the HP iPaq 600
########################################################################################################
Q: Manila right softkey is named "programs", but by pressing on it launches camera
It is a known bug related to M2DC (M2D Config). Exactly after flashing all should be correct, but if you open M2DC, change something in it and accidentally press to softkey tab and then press ok (without modifing softkeys) M2DC automatically redefine softkeys to their default values Phone and Camera. So this bug is related to M2DC. Because i am not a developer of this program, i cant fix this.
Solution:
by default softkeys are set to
Code:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\Manila2D\Home]
"SK1"="Contacts"
"SK1Cmd"="\\Windows\\Start Menu\\Programs\\Office\\Contacts.lnk"
"SK2"="Programs"
"SK2Cmd"="\\Windows\\folderview.exe"
Q: I have a delay (2-5 sec) after I answer my phone
It is problem of all winmobile devices.
Solution:
Use default winmobile dialer
Install this cab or
Change key to zero
Code:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Phone\Skin]
"Enabled"=dword:00000001
Q: When i create New Folder in WM6.5 StartMenu icon is ugly.
You can change folder picture. See code below, it is made for my two folders: Multimedia and Office. Copy attached folder icon to Windows dir and edit registry by analogy with code below.
Code:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SECURITY\Shell\StartInfo\Start\Multimedia]
"Icon"="\\Windows\\Start_Icon_Multimedia.png"
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SECURITY\Shell\StartInfo\Start\Office]
"Icon"="\\Windows\\Start_Icon_Office.png"
Q: When my pda battery left about 35%, the pda starts to scream "Low Battery Voltage detected" and then after 10 seconds the pda will turn off.
It is related to bad calibration of your battery or your battery is bad (old)
Solution:
Buy a new battery.
Before you buy new battery, try this solution
Discharge your battery to 0% with video. Then without turning it on charge to 100%. Should happen recalibration of battery, if it is not so old.
If dont work this, so buy a new one.
Q: How can i see default windows keyboard, Block Recognizer and Letter Recognizer
They are hidden by default
To make them visible use small utility SIP Manager
Q: Weather on Home page dont work
It uses your GPS location. Updates only with WiFi. Of course, GPS signal dont work in houses, be closer to window or the best result be out of house.
One more solution with Mortscript
Q: My town is not in the weather list. Can i add more cities to manila weather?
Manila2D WeatherCities Editor v.1.2.1
Q: I dont see Missed Calls on Home tab
With new Manila v2.0 it is impossible to show them on home tab, even with M2DC.
Q: I'd like to use outlook as default calendar and default Task application.
Copy two files to Windows dir. From Home page will be access to default calendar. Find shortcut of tasks.lnk and copy it to StartMenu. You will have access to default tasks.
Q: ActiveSync is always running
Create Fake ActiveSync sever
Q: How can i watch streaming live TV?
Install Streaming Media
Q: D-PAD: How to use it?
It works like this: hold down the end call button for 1 second, and the red LED will light up to let you know it's working. When it's on, the number pad keys have the following functions:
1：Home 2: Up 3: Page up
4: Left 5: Enter 6: Right
7: End 8: Down 9: Page Down
0: Tab
To switch back, just hold down the end call key again.
Also, you can change the backlight by holding down the Windows key and a number:
win + 7: 1st level of screen brightness, with the keyboard backlight off. Good for using indoors in average lighting.
win + 8: 2nd level of screen brightness, also with keyboard backlight off. Good for bright rooms and outdoors.
win + 9: Brightest level (use when in direct sunlight)
win + 0: Lowest brightness level, keyboard backlight on. Good for dark rooms and nighttime.
Q: HTC Keyboard Customization (Not for builds with EzInput 2.1)
Language packs and XT9
[ABC as Default] - Set ABC as default IME for hardware and software keyboards.
[T9 as Default] - Set T9 as default IME for hardware and software keyboards
NB!
Not all languages work correctly, some languages dont have hardware support (only numbers from hardware keyboard)
To view language you should manually add your language code to the registry.
Code:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Tegic\eT9]
"AvailableLanguages"="0109[COLOR="Red"],0119,01OC[/COLOR]"
Choose language by pressing "*" sign on keyboard (Not from Personal -> Input Menu)
User Customization FAQ
1) Why XDA_UC folder is needed?
What the XDA UC service does, is silently install (or not so silently if needed by User), .cab, .xdas, .xml, .reg, .mscr. This happens either at first or second boot
2) How can i create automatically Email account?
Here
3) How can i create automatically Exchange server

4) How can i set automatically TimeZone and Weather

How to dump Ipaq 614c
Ipaq 614c French ROM
hey i just do quick try on your rom.
-odd to me when the customization engine finish and i press reset, the screen go blank (not off just black) and seem to hang there, i punch the pinhole reset and seem works fine
-your pagepool seem to be 4mb(based on pagepool_by_wlodixon)
-and the dpad program doesn't seem to work
-you use the 80mb flash.dio (based on original flash.dio?) instead of the 76.9mb that other rom cooker use so you have a lot of unnecessary empty space at the end of file but I guess you will optimize later
Thank for your feedback, it is my first rom
-your pagepool seem to be 4mb(based on pagepool_by_wlodixon)

OK I will increase pagepool size
-and the dpad program doesn't seem to work

D-pad is not in startup, press to icon and then red button. Working fine

I use kitchen by captaintrip, it always generates the same size of flash.dio file (80 mb). If you use something different or know how to decrese size of ROM, share your knowledge
you can change the TEMPLATE.ROM in ROM folder to a smaller one, I used pdalcan rom as template which is smaller, make sure you replace the xip with yours though. But I guess it probably doesn't matter much other than the flash file is smaller

WM 6.1 21042 advice
I tried to install WM 6.1 21042 BETA 0.2 and it works fine.
BUT I have small advice - start menu font and context menu font size is too large.
Can you change size of it?
Just for example; ROM WM6.1 OS 5.2.20270 rev 1.2 FIX with iolite manila v22 (link is in sergiorus signature) has nice font size and exactly what I need and I am sure other guys will be satisfied

Release notes:
Version 23569 2010-06-21:
Ongoing progress, since I am cooking it with a self made assistant where I am implementing different cooking functionalities (so far it imports the sys zip file, generates the ROM folders, selects packages used in last build configuration, removes beta watermark, etc :
Original SoftBar Icons.
About screen still showing 28008 in ROM Version.
Version 28008 2010-04-05: 183 downloads

Standard wm6.5.3 Lockscreen added

Profiles Module improvements
Version 28008 2010-03-01: 60 downloads
Beta release
Nice i'm gonna test it right now
I'm flashing right now!
White screen after flash and boot - wtf!
sorry for that ! never happened to me. Did you tap in the screen in the middle anyway? Please, anybody can confirm if it works or not? It if does not work I will remove the link, and do some more testing.
Edit: I flashed back to wm6.1 and then again my rom and it loads smoothly. Pcarvalho, alexander.voigt and others have detailed instructions in their roms and they recommend to flash original 6.1 first and hard reset after first flash.
works just fine - nice touches like second home
i'd rather have ie removed for opera though
@reiteravi, thanks for the confirmation and the comment.
You can place cabs in xda_uc and they will be installed automatically after flashing. This way I avoid double space (files doubled in windows and program folder) or overloading windows folder.
gettin rid of the ie in the first place is what i need
anyway i'm in nanding android now so i'll check this rom or any newer later
thanks
interesting rom...try if i have time

Works just fine, but calendar is spanish ?
If possible, I'm looking for a danish version also.
Great job anyway.
Hi, I will check the calendar language.
You should be able to config it yourself in the meanwhile. It is a today freeware plugin called Today Agenda, in a second today screen. You have an icon in my settings to configure plugins to be shown in SecondToday (you can add more plugins like windows default plugins or install new ones) Please, use the search function.
Regarding the plugin of the calendar, as I said it is called Today Agenda and should be configurable in a number of languages. I do not know if your language is supported but english should be.
I take note and will document more in next release and add othe languages if they are not in the ROM.
Regarding versions of the ROM in other languages, it is currently not in my agenda, sorry for that.
First I need to complete the ROM adding more support to other sd programs, adding backup buttons for the main apps (like speed dial), document my proposed sd xda_uc user customization, optimize folders for sd usage... upgrade to newer builds... test for true 6.5 kernel... optimize the xip... and then I will try to produce versions in main european languages.... That is defenetely a lot of work and time...
hengelo, jan_sorensen, listen ! why do not you try cooking one in your language !! We have kitchens in this forum that are ready to cook in the different languages and would be great to have new roms and cookers for all to enjoy !!
Open a thread or post in the polaris chef thread and I will be glad to help you (whenever I have the knowledge) throughout the process ! (and I suspect I would not be the only one willing to help
... among many others, there is a german guy around the forum that never lets an answered question last too long ...
i cant download any new rom for my touch cruise p3650
plz help me
it will be difficult to help you if you do not explain what happens to you
excellent job but...
i managed to install it in my polaris and everything about it is so amazing. memory is almost unused! and major languages are available as well .. i also managed to install the following smoothly:-
---------------------------------------
Arabic language as well n it's compatible
Manila 2.5 with the weather thingy
gfxboost
Garmin XT
Skype
NoniView
YouTube
Advanced Config
Midomi
Call Firewall
n many more
----------------------------------------
However, either with or without these apps.. this version seems to consume lots of time just to boot up (about 4 minutes) n it freezes so badly to the extent that sometimes i have to hard reset.. and it freezes again while booting up system!
i've been working on finding a way to fix this problem but i cant seem to find any.
for the same of others, i hope i'm the only once facing this problem
thanks for the feedback ! If you do not mind I will pm you to get more details on the freezes.
I am aware of the long booting time (I am working on it) but I did not have freeezes here. The ROM has not arabic support at all, I do not know if it influences. Please, if you can explain further would be great if you could send me a pm or post here.
Soft De-Branding of Toshiba TG01
===================================================================
Required:
- Windows desktop based Registry Editor such as CERegEdit
- Replacement Welcome and Shutdown screen image files (below)
Optional:
- Windows Mobile File Explorer such as Resco Explorer 2010
- Microsoft .net Framework 3.5 View attachment NETCFv35.wm.armv4i.cab
- Microsoft .net Config Tool View attachment netcfcfg.cab
Additional OPTIONAL Step
- ROM Reflash as described in this thread
- this ONLY results in removal of the Orange splash screen; the rest of the process described below is still needed.
- This also introduces a significantly greater level of risk and should be avoided unless you know what you are doing and take full responsibilty for any unintended consequences.
- Please read thoroughly ! Especially the caveats posted by @cedesmith as author of the TGTool.
====================================================================
Part 1 - Carry out Hard Reset (Master Clear)
Either:
1.1 Power off; Press Power button while at the same time press and hold Camera AND Volume Up. When green light comes on / vibrates, release Power. Then follow on screen prompts to execute HR.
OR:
1.2 Go Start|Settings|System then tap Master Clear. Enter code '1234' to confirm.
1.3 Allow device to initiate cold boot. White TOSHIBA appears on black background, followed by Orange Windows screen and message
"Tap the screen to set up.... " DO NOT TAP !
====================================================================
Part 2 - Remove unwanted .cab Files prior to startup
Start CeRegEdit (NB. if you are running Vista / Win 7 you will need to be logged in as an Administrator)
- Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Toshiba\AutoCabInstall
- DELETE all Values in this section that you do not want to retain.
- If you have a licenced copy of Core Player, will also wish to remove this so you can install the later version now available separately.
====================================================================
WARNING:
- From here on you are making significant Registry changes; however if things don't end up working as desired, this IS fully recoverable, BUT will entail doing a fresh Hard Reset.
- If you are not happy with these detailed edits, suggest skip to Step 4.
- All changes CAN also be made by individually editing the multitude of Settings (eg. Network, email, etc.) directly on the TG01.
Part 3 - Clean up Registry
DELETE Complete Keys:- HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Comm\RasBook\Orange Internet
- HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Comm\RasBook\Orange MMS

====================================================================
Part 4 - Boot into Windows
NOW you can tap the screen and proceed to the usual Align Screen stage.
HINT - when carrying out screen alignment, make your taps very precise and GENTLE. This will maximise both pointing accuracy AND sensitivity.
====================================================================
Part 5 - Remove unwanted Shortcuts from Start Menu
Open your TG01 in Windows or File Explorer:
- Go to ..\Windows\Start Menu\Programs
DELETE Orange Maps.lnk (NB. if in File Explorer on the mobile you won't be able to see the .lnk extension)
(You can also remove shortcuts to any other built-in apps which you don't want, eg. calculator, if replacing with a more swept-up version)
====================================================================
Part 6 - Replace Orange Welcome and Shutdown screens with generic Windows ones:
- Copy the following two files FIRST to your device or uSD Card; then across to ..\Windows directory.
- Ignore the warning messages about overwriting.
- NB. This will NOT work using either Copy|Paste from the desktop via AS/WMDC OR the built-in File Explorer.
- It WILL work if you install a suitable 3rd party file explorer such as Resco Explorer 2010. This also incorporates a very useful on-board Registry Editor and is highly recommended.

}
,
====================================================================
Part 7 - Add a Soft Power Off Shortcut (exactly the same function as the hardware button)
- Unzip and copy the following shortcut (.lnk file) to ..\Windows\Start Menu\Programs
View attachment PowerOffHint.zip
====================================================================
Part 8 - Test the shortcut by going Start | Power Off (Icon with Red circle and White cross).
- Press the hardware Power button to reboot
- On reboot, you should be greeted by the Windows start screen and as fully soft de-branded a device as is currently possible.
====================================================================
Part 9 - Supplementary improvements:
Add Microsoft .net Mobile Framework 3.5 and .net Config Manager
- Install View attachment NETCFv35.wm.armv4i.cab
- Install View attachment netcfcfg.cab
Then open .Net Configuration (Icon in Start Menu) and check you have:
.Net Compact Framework versions installed:
3.5.7283.0
2.0.7045.0 (ROM)
Go to Device Policy tab and select 'Run unconfigured applications with the following'
3.5.7283 and then tap 'Apply'; Close
====================================================================
Part 10 - Strongly Recommended:
Install a suitable on-device File Explorer / Registry Editor (eg. Resco Explorer 2010)
Install a suitable Backup app (eg. Sprite Backup, Resco Backup or SPB Backup)
Now make a 'Master' Backup so you can easily get back to a 'clean' build after your next Hard Reset without having to repeat the above process !
Edit: Experience has shown that while a Master Backup is still really good for certain aspects (eg. all your own Operator Settings which WILL get restored to the Registry following an HR, unfortunately because the above process also deletes lots of Keys/Values, these will stay in place post-HR. Basically restoring the Master Backup will overwrite any values, but it doesn't delete anything.
====================================================================
Acknowledgements:
- To all the various sources across XDA and other Forums - Thank You for a vast mine of information which I have tapped into to pull together here along with my own researches.
Request:
- I have tested the above procedures on a TG01, both to create the information and then walk through and follow it...
- There are however almost certain to be some 'bugs' which will be encountered, also depending on individuals' configurations, ISPs, etc.
- So, it will be greatly appreciated if you find a bug to please PM me with the details and I will then update this post accordingly.
Enjoy....

When i open up ceregedit it doesnt detect my tg01 so i cant get into the reg files. Is there something special i need to do to get ceregedit to detect my phone - im connected via usb.
Thank you very much for the information, it is very detailed explanation indeed, good job!!!
many thanks Kevin!
only one question left - at the end you suggest to make a master backup so that we can later restore the phone with the above settings...how to make a back up?
great thread!
nice post shame i dont have my tg01 anymore would have loved to have got rid of orange branding
Kevin,
this is a brilliant how-too
& i thought i was 'brutal' with last bedrand... you've taken way more off than i even knew was there...
i just swapped to o2 PAYG & these settings (even without a hard reset) really helped strip out the orange (perhaps they should rename to brown) MMS / internet etc
FYI (to the board ~ kevin'll know this already)
a LOT of these settings can be removed without a hard reset, but it would be better to start from a fresh install if possible
but (if like me) you already did the auto cab install remove, then you can still delete the settings mentioned above.
Thanks again Kevin.
This just leaves the orange boot up screen... i'm getting no where with that... like people have said.. needs a unlocked ROM methinks... can't even find the file on the phone

if on vista/win7 - you must run ceregedit as a administrator
the phone must have made a active sync connection with windows (NOT just show up in win explorer) or ceregedit wont detect it.

You're welcome I've edited links to each of the 3 principle Backup solutions own websites into the first post. I'd say they are broadly similar, but each tend to have their own enthusiasts. Suggest a quick trawl on XDA and other forums for feedback and then 'try before you buy' where a trial version is available to check out.

I don't think the Orange boot screen is on the phone - I think is hard coded in the ROM and written into the equivalent of the Bootstrap Flash chip on a PC - so is the same as the Asus or whoever's logo splash screen you get when you start up your desktop (assuming POST isn't set to display).
Thanks, Kevin, for your work: nice post, very clear & instructive...
Although I thought it will remove the ''funny" stripes(aka toshiba menu) too... Is it possible?Which way?
What are they reffering to:
- HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Toshiba\CommSetupath 32
- HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Toshiba\CommSetupath 33
- HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Toshiba\CommSetupath 35
- HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Toshiba\CommSetupath 36
- HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Toshiba\CommSetupath 37
NB. Do NOT delete Path Path 31 and Path 34
because I didn't delete those.
Thx again!

These are two different things. The Keys you identified above relate to the Root Certificates. I've shown in more detail in the attached picture:
View attachment 298079
We are deleting all the Orange specific Certificates which I don't think will now be required but keeping the two generic ones marked in red.
The Toshiba Stripes menu system is controlled from the Registry but a different part - this wasn't included in the above process, but it will be possible to disable in a similar manner. The configuration of each Stripe is included in a set of Keys here:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Toshiba\RegistrySettings\MainMenu
There may be other Keys which also contain references, but I havn't searched for those as yet. In the meantime, the Toshiba Stripes UI can simply be 'switched off' by deselecting in the Today Settings just like the Windows Titanium UI.
what about the orange welcome screen?
windows start screen is only replaced

Please see Post#12 above - it appears hard coded in the ROM NAND and so far we are unable to find any way of replacing - until such time as there is a viable independent ROM which a number of dedicated people are working hard to achieve.
Nice detailed instruction.
Thanks a lot.
My question is:
Since I used already this metod from your post #71 , would I be able to do "master clear"
and start it all ower again.
Thanks again.

There is nothing to stop you doing a Hard Reset (Master Clear) and starting the whole process from square one. However if you have already part set up your device, you can do most of the changes retrospectively as well, but you probably won't end up with as thorough a 'spring clean'.
The ideal is to start with a HR, go through step by step until happy and then make a Master Backup so that when you do a future HR you can quickly get right back to a known clean state.
If you have already installed various Apps, worthwhile saving the Settings for those (many have a built-in function) as again will make it easy to restore their configuration 'just so' following a clean reinstall.
Hope that helps ....
Thanks.
I'i do it all over.
wceload.exe
Kevin
I found on a Russian site another debranding procedure:
they recommend after HR, when the calibration screen appears, to connect to PC and place in Windows directory using Active sync an emply file called wceload.exe
they claim that none of the operator autocabs will be installed this way.
I am a complete beginner in WM but I would appreciate your opinion on this procedure, even theoretical
many thanks
