I would like to launch some applications via the startup menu, and some of them simply need to be running in the background to function properly.
Is there a tag on the shortcut like -minimize that will work for all applications or does the specific application need to support it?
Thank you so much
Try Quickmenu....its nice start menu/task manager it has option to exclude programs from closing when u click on X
you could create a simple mortscript that calls the today screen (maybe with a delay) and make sure the shortcut to it is the last one in startup.
Yep, you can use MortScript to do what you need. I think it's the only way because I needed to do it also. I don't use the script anymore so I deleted it, but if you search the MortScript manual for 'minimize' you should find what you need.
I think its dependant upon the app.. but i have used -s successfully before.. you may also want to try to search MSDN
Give a try to the one attached here........

I assume you want to run an app from \Startup. Your question is a little confusing. Anyway, it will be app dependent as far as the functionality using command lines in a .lnk. I do not know of a general command that would work for this as the point of shortcuts is to open the app. If the app is not intended to run in the background on its own, it will open like normal.
What are you trying to do exaclty? Perhaps that would help answer your question a bit more.
Is there a way to force a shortcut to minimize an application when launched?
i need this too.. for UL links..

I found browsing on the Internet a little program here is very interesting
Description: mToday is an application for you to switch between two today screen profiles to enable/disable pre-defined today plug-ins quickly and conveniently.

thanks Vicott Wong
nice catch bro, i like it
thanks
great find, thanks.
hmm, interesting, thanks.
Nice idea, but very very slow.
good but keep improving
This is a good idea but as mentioned slow, so keep improving.
If you want a quick second today, take the battery status today. Then you have two today screens. But this kill one today and go to the other today. This good to save memory. For me its good. In one I have all my things. And if I want IGO8 I take the other.
NEO130,
Could you please elaborate what is the "battery status today" that you use for mToday with minimal memory?
I try to do the same: one mToday profile with the applications I commonly use and the other mToday profile for iGO8. The profile with commonly used applications works OK but when the link of the empty profile for iGO8 is invoked it stuck my HTC Trinity such that it needs a hard reset. The succeeding boot yields the empty Today.
Not a convenient way to switch profiles, though...
Thank you,

Hi.
I posted this over at MobiSapienz but it may be easier to chat over here?
So I read:
"Added command line option to launch settings (-p0)"
When I do:
Run(SystemPath( "ProgramFiles" ) \ "Vicsoft\MToday\mToda y.exe","-p1")
It pops up the mToday Switcher and leaves it there.
Am I not doing the command line argument correctly. I did try "-1" but as I suspected that also popped up the switcher.
I am also assuming -p0 refers to mToday 1, and -p1 would refer to mToday 2.
I kind of wish there were a reg setting for "Current mToday Profile" for last switched profile.
Thanks...

i've searched in the programs directory the executable file of a single panel, for example 3d-fish panel, but in the directory i've founded only .dll without .exe...
what's the method to start a panel from a shortcut? what command i must launch?
tnx
nothing?
i must put an argumentto panelManager.exe?
I don't actually think that's possible, as panels are run from within an application (exe). They're not supposed to be used seperately. It's like trying to watch a movie in notepad, just not designed to work there.
Unless someone feels like making it, ofcourse.
for example, XperiaTweak can launch a panel from our choice automatically, then i suppose it use a command but what command?? i don't find it!!

I believe that XperiaTweak uses it own extra software to launch the panel of choice.
Yeah the Xperia Tweak probably sets a command to press the X-Panel button, and then it tells the X-Panel software which panel to chose.

I think so too, as Xperiatweak also shows the LED lights that are associated with pressing the panel button.
However you simply want to run the application right ? Then ask Pubba ! He made EXEs which wrap media and radio panels. It should be easy with any other panel. Maybe even generic panel launcher could be made.
His EXEs are posted here (look for 'Pubba'):

Hi,
at the moment I'm working on this because I like to have this to.
I will tell you when I have managed to do it.

Hi everyone,
Is there anyway to install the OLD version of Internet Explorer (the one that came with WM 6) in the new 6.5? I am actually hoping for a side-by-side install.
Before you all think I am crazy… here is the deal.
I am a software developer and have a number of highly functional web applications (for entering orders, invoices, etc - see screen shots) that integrate with a number of popular ERP systems.
However, some of them are breaking in the new IE6. I cannot afford to not be able to demo these apps.
Best regards,
The Fish

Here is a cab file IE6. Credit goes to vin255764. I found this on one of the threads over at PPCGEEKS.
Does anyone know how i can install this and the newer version that came with 6.5 together? I tried installing this cab and it removed IE6 and replaced it with 5.
The reason i want both is that for most of the sites I look at I absolutely HATE having no "fit to one column" feature so i can only scroll vertically.
Thanks
In case anyone was interested, the above CAB file only sets one registry key to "0" (to switch to IE5 mode) or "1" to switch to the new IE6 (as in WM6.5).
The key is:
HKLM\Security\Internet Explorer
"MSHTML" = 0 or 1
Just kill the Iexplore.exe task and rerun it to run in the new mode!
You could even create two mort scripts that each have its own shortcut, and depending on which shortcut you launch, will have mortscript change this reg key and then launch IE in that mode.
P.S. A BIG thank you goes out to microsoft for adding this backwards-emulation to the new IE6 - great work!
Thread moved to General.
In order to show both the Clock aka Home tab & MyFaves tab in TF3D, edit the following registries;
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\Manila:Manila://home.page.hidden
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\Manila:Manila://myfaves.page.hidden
Both are DWORD's, 0 to show, 1 to hide.
Screenshots (NOTE: I don't have SIM Card in, I hacked the registry to make it show & most likely why the Contact Icons are messed up);

You must have the MyFaves Service on your account otherwise the updater disables the app's GUI & any part of the app itself from launching which is most likely why you don't see settings & also why you never saw the page.
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\HTC\My5\SMSC\CmdGet\StateRequest]
"ClientUIOnOff"=dword:00000000
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\HTC\My5\SMSC\CurrentState]
"ClientUIOnOff"=dword:00000000
Means GUI is turned off. Changing to 00000001 should make it display.
Hi,
i am working now around 2 month on that.
Not the whole time ;-). But sometimes i
hacking my registry very deep and i find
some nice things.
MyFave can be found multiple times here
on XDA. So after my investigation in had
have a nive mY5 screen. Deinstalled yet,
but i think i will startup again to share some
things here !?....
Edit 16:06 - 30.09.2009:
Actually i working on it ;-). And you don't need the service from the great T.
I will prepare the app on a way that you don't need this service. On the TP2
teher is a favorite page but this is a nice to have page for TF3D.
The easiest way to check a phone about its various functions or failure of such function is to use its own embedded testing .apk
How to access them is not normally Known to many
All you have to do is
1) Long Press your Desktop
2) Touch shortcuts
3) Touch Activities
4) And you can select activity of any application on your phone ( which has its own pulled down menu to chose from)
By selecting one you will have a shortcut of it placed in your desktop
so all you have to do is now touch that shortcut and its appropriate menu will open for you to test or select from
see screen-shots below
Assuming you have problems with USB connections, Blue tooth, WIFI, Network settings, whatever your phone is supposed to do, can be checked this way including running a ping test etc

If you are using XDA App or Tapatalk, long press on the post and select :good: Thanks Its easier to give "Feedback" in this manner than make an additional post.
Direct shortcuts to activities can be quite useful. One of my main uses is to get access to the fullscreen feeds and updates widget (there is also an activity that allows you to select a few themes for it).
You do however need a launcher such as Launcherpro or Apex launcher installed to get this in the shortcut menu.
Thankyou so much for this insight, I spent 2 years wondering what this option was for and it never crossed my mind to actually try it

You are welcome, seems so simple and right in-front of us to get into the phone, yet little known or used
