Remove unwanted programs - Touch GSM General

Hi guys
I have searched the forums and wiki but cannot get a clear answer (which does not mean much as I am rather useless at this) - can anyone advise how I can remove unwanted progams, such as messenger, from my Touch to free up some space? I am using greatbals diamodn theme for Spb 2.1 and need space etc....
Many thanks and sorry for the bother!

from south africa, right?
programs that have been installed can be removed from the 'remove programs' option under settings but I guess that's not the answer you looking for
you probably refering to the set of default programs that are on your touch...that you want to remove..sorry to say those are there to stay unless to flash your touch with a rom that has a list of programs that suite your needs...btw did you ever flash your touch? (you still using the stock standard rom that came with your touch?)
once you start flashing you won't stop and never look back

What u want in Niki Project Rom ?

Hi All...!
In this times i has received many support from user niki forum.
Thanks so much guys.
Now i'm cooking ours Rom niki device,and what u want in Niki project Rom please post here.I will look in it and select which the best for us.
Any ideas just post in this thread
U're welcome guys
first to post here...well I guess the best way to start is to thank you for your work!
second..I think that all niki's users would love to find a way to improve battery life...right now it really drains out quickly..and perhaps there is something that can be done to reduce the consumption of energy.
plus i would love to see wifi connectivity on my screen..
ciao from Italy
I guess there will be many nice things to include (which dont come to my mind right now.. )
The only thing i'd say at the moment is that it would be awesome to include PointUI (www.pointUI.com) in some way... I know it's in very early stage and still has some bugs but it simply looks astonishing!
just my 2 cents...
i would like long press end key to power an .exe. such as slide2unlock..
1st I want to appreciate for you taking the time to try to make a good device even better.
Here it goes:
A finger friendly, always accessible task manager/task switcher (like the one of AE Button Plus, also the button-customization possibilities are nearly endless, which enable ducamie to do what he wants)
hangup-on-slider-close tool which is available in the forum. maybe it needs some modding since I prefer not to lock the phone or anything else but just to hang-up if I accepted the call via slider-open.
LCMinutes (also available here)
the HTC Apps with all proper working customization tools
since we own the niki, we all love eye candy stuff. So if something looks awesome and don't impact on performance too much, consider it.
some kind of working card export thing
system tweaks that make the niki a bit faster. consider to spent more ram to get more speed (some cache values and such things)
how about google maps
not to mention that working gps would be really great
get rid of those MS Live Apps
Well... this list is quite long I guess. Consider this a cheeky wishlist .
Cheers,
jekk

Really appreciate your efforts Tom.

the funny thing about this is that if it didnt exist at all like in the excalibur there would be ALOT of users screaming to have this functionality . After getting used to the T9 function I really dont mind it.
having said that a 4 sided cube that dont resemble the iphone would be great. and then the obvious is a big storage rom without the ext-rom.
Why do you guys want that third party soft like point ui or similar will be installed?
If a new version is released u have to install the new pointui in userspace.
Then u have lost double space.
I would prefer to remove all apps that can be installed by yourself.
Even Live Mobile or HTC Apps.
Then everybody can install what he needs and save space.
Also u can remove soft if there is something newer if it's not in the ROM.
If it's in ROM it's lost space and u have to flash a new ROM erverytime a app
is released in a new version if u need more space.
And that means to install everthing u need again and again.
Pls do a stable and good Rom with only the needed things,
for additional apps in newest version we have threads like the HTC Apps Thread.
Is it possible to have it contain more than 1 language keyboards/text input? I know have an English version, and it would be usefull for me to be able to use xt9 in Dutch.

sorry 4 spam Tom, just had to
I came up this morning with one more things that i would love to have in my phone:
the possibility to use two dictionaries at the same time (primary and secondary). i.e. :If you write a word in T9 that it is not recognize by the first dictionary T9 tries to see possible matches with the second one..
ciao
thanks for cooking the Niki Project ROM!
these are the things that I want to be included in the ROM (if possible)
- WIFI & GPS Workaround
- Disable XT9
- Be able to map keypad buttons (IE button as "OK/Close" (16 keys))
- FM receiver
- Removable Storage workaround (WM5 Storage/Card Export)
good luck on the project!

Sideways swipe in Messaging, WM6.1??

This question was posted in the Elf forum, but didn't get any answers, so I figured I'd post it here, maybe someone can help me out.
With my original Rogers ROM, I was able to swipe sideways in Messaging to go from SMS to Hotmail to Gmail, or to see next/previous message when in a message.
Since I have flashed my phone to WM6.1 (I've tried Blue Elves V5.0, kokotas Clean ROM Black Edition and AB's Clean ROM), none of these seem to support the sideways swipe in Messaging.
Is this something that is not included in WM6.1? Or is there a reg setting that I didn't see to enable this? I am able to do the same thing with the D-Pad left and right, but I'd like to get the swipe back... That's why we have touch screens, isn't it?
Hope someone can help me out. Thanks in advance...
Damn, my apologies! I meant to post this in the General forum! If a mod wants to move this thread, please do... Sorry!!
That is an HTC feature seen on the Vogue/Elf/etc. Not related to WM. It's part of Touchflo/biotouch/whatever it is called. You need to have that built into your ROM. I think FTouchSL will allow this functionality as well.
Thanks for the quick reply!
I've tried FtouchSL, and I find it doesn't work anywhere near as well as the original "biotouch", also, I has many options that I'll never use, so I'd rather stick to the built in biotouch.exe.
On that note, I had a copy of my original Rogers biotouch.exe from when I disabled the cube on my Elfin, I copied that into the \Windows folder with Resco explorer and overwrote the old one, soft reset, still doesn't seem to work.
I think there's a registry setting that I'm missing perhaps, I'm gonna look around for it, but if anyone else has any ideas, I'd be happy to hear them.
Thanks again...
Do you have the original HTC Cube? If the ROM you're using have a disabled cube, you won't have that feature. (some cooks actually disables the cube since it's pretty much useless now)
Damn, yeah, the roms I'm using all have had the cube disabled. Well, thanks for the help, I guess I'll have to try something else...

Stock WM 6.5 ROM

I've tried to scour this forum but cannot find any reference to what I need hence the request for assistance. I need just the stock Windows Mobile 6.5 as released by Microsoft. I do not care for any HTC enhancements (menus and whatnot), basically I need it as vanilla as can be. I would then like to apply the tweaks and all that jazz by using the available tools out there.
Ideas? Perhaps someone can point me in the right direction?
ps: The reason I'm asking for this is because I have tried (for the life of me) to disable the HTC style pop up notification bubble and cannot figure it out. I know the option to hide it exists however, when I click on the notification icons on the start menu (say I get a new email or whatever), It still displays it in the HTC-style option.
I found this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=631449 and I believe points to the first two steps are supposed to help me achieve what I want, however that doesn't seem to be the case.
To be honest, I would much prefer to keep the NRG Rom that I'm using if I could just get rid of the aforementioned pop-up notification box but that's not looking like an option.
HELP!!! - lol
There is no stock WM6.5 rom for the Touch HD, the roms available here are taken from other handsets and modified with the necessary drivers etc. to work on the Touch HD
To just disable the HTC notification manager, get FdcSoft TaskMgr, go to Services, set the HTC Notification service to manual, then soft reset.

I have the task manager, and when I go to the aforementioned service, it is configured as you suggested yet the ugly notification bubble persists.
ok, as there is no official stock wm6.5 rom and your query is about notifications, I've moved this thread to General discussion forum

WHY arent ThERE Stickies!

a ton of info on here, to bad its so scattered if i close the tab ill never find it again..
having a problem making shortcuts from sd card/ dont know the proper procedure but i did manage to get omarket back to home tabs after a hard reset because tmobile wouldnt/couldnt upload my contacts from mytmobile.com
now i have wifi router somehwere in the system already installed and cant utilize it.
installed these 2 things before i called tmobile.
There should also be a what to do and what not to do, it gets very confusing seeing the leo thread and then coming back to the US tMObile Leo thread and no stickies.
there should be a list of .cab for the apps that come with the phone that were removed b4 release to US. i found it b4 i cant find it now
An official list of what roms will work + compatibility sticky (so people dont brick phones all day) its hard to see a good rom and then have to read the next 3 pages to realize it wont work/will brick your fone.
and a general how to for those who dont want to flash roms, and dont mind dealing with stock rom but would like the benifits "tweaks" such as tweaks for stock rom.
Any one VNCvewier? this is a useful tool that only topix rom has (as far as i know)
I just got my hd2 today, but have been going ape $/-/!tt looking things up on here for the past weeks.

How to install a cab.
You simply download the cab to your computer. Then, copy/paste the cab to your storage card using the USB connection. Then, using your file explore on your phone locate the cab file in your storage card and install it by double taping the file.
How to search the forum.
1) Towards the top right side of web page you should see the search option, press the small arrow.
2) A small drop down window should open.
3A) You may do a broad search which normally won’t turn up any solid information by simply typing out what you’re looking for in the white box and hitting search.
3B) For a more refine search click on the "use the built in forum search" / Advance search link at the bottom of the small search box.
4) You'll want to click on the small arrow just under the Keyword box on the left hand side of the screen and click "search titles only".
5) Then on the right side of the window is the larger “search in forum(s)” box, click on either the “HTC Leo: HD2” or the “T-Mobile USA HTC HD2” heading which are highlighted in white and press Search Now.

If you're looking for speed and don't mind messing with the phone look into a better ROM. But do your research. I just flashed my first one about 2 days ago.

Htc slowing down

I have had my HTC for 1 week now and it has started to slow down has any one had any experience with this problem, I also have noticed my weather location is not working properly I dont know why I would appriciate it if some one can help.
-Metta
I assume you are using stock rom?
Sometimes slowdown could be due to installation of a software. Try to think of any software that might cause the slowdown.
But I think slowdown is unavoidable for most electronic devices, a month old laptop can never be compared to a same but new one.
If you wish, you can consider trying out some custom roms. They generally has better performance compared stock roms. Less junks and faster.

Installing a new ROM will remove all the stuff on phone memory. It's just like reformating a pc. If you don't like the rom, you can always try another rom.
There are plenty of stuff you need to know first before flashing a rom.
If you are new to this, make sure you read alot before doing anything to your phone. Everything you need to know can be found in the ROm Development section.

I'd recommend the Leopard 6.5.5 ROM, once you enter PIN, after that it's instantly usable, been using it for a few months now, constantly amazes me.
1) try to think if you really need the application before you will install it. Most of the apps leave lots of garbage after you uninstall them, so the phone is getting slower and slower.
2) use the program like cleanRAM
3) there is no "the ultimate ROM" - try a few - if you dont like particular one - try another. Just do not fall into the 'ROM changing addiction'
4) there is the difference between 6.5 and 6.5.x. If you used the stock ROM only, and you are used to have "Start" on top then (with 6.5.x) you will fill odd having the start on bottom - dont worry - you will use to that

What is Clean ram?
Metta24 said:
What is Clean ram?

Click to collapse
its a program that clears all apps running in background and uses the free RAM for quicker processing.
also, I would recommend you to use a task manager in order to actually close applications after your donee using them instead off just minimizing them. because if you were like me when I first got my phone, I was so used to the iphone/android lack of multitasking, that I would always just push the home button to exit out of apps.however windows leaves them running in the background which causes a lotof slowdowns.
slowing down....confusing?
hi every body....
i've in some how the same problem...i mean the slowing down...
but i think the word i use is a little incorrect...because my phone works fast,and well but for example sometimes when i go to mesages, for a few seconds it slows down in changing messeges and then again works as fast as possible...or as an other example some times this happens in my contact list or my home screen...esp. when the weather is cloudy and lots of clouds are moving in my home screen
but i think the overall perfomance of my phone is still like the begining day...
i thought that the problem is due to some programs that i have installed like showcase task manager or touch x power but i removed them and still some times esp. in my home screen i have the problem!?
and by the way i''m using stock rom,WM 6.5 1.66.707 WWE and í've bought my HD2 about a week ago...
i'll be glad if any one knows about how the problem could be solved?!...or even to say that it's a problem or not!?...tnx
same here
yeah i've barely had the phone about two weeks and within the first three days it started slowing down. ESPECIALLY in the messages, and even more when i had the swype text input so i took that off. and at times i wouldnt even recieve the message. my phone's screen would light up as if i was about to get a message and i checked nothing was there but my friends told me they texted me and apparently i didnt receive. i want to try a new rom. but i really dont understand what cab files, tweaks, and things of that sort are. i've rooted my g1 before but never messed with a windows phone
Yeah this is really starting annoy me, I don't want to install a new ROM as I don't understand them but I want my phone back up to speed. Need more ideas please

Well i dont exactly now but for sure all your programs. Sms and contacts can you backup with MyPhone or copy contacts to simcard or synchronize them with outlook.
Edit I investogated a little bit spb backup also backups contacts, sms and email. so only spb nacup should be enough.

There's no need for any hard resets. Connect your phone to a PC and check out how much free space your device (NOT the SD card) has left. If it's below 30, then there's your problem. Just use cleartemp and cleanram, move games and other apps from the phone memory to the card, and you should be ok. If the problems still persist, then I strongly advise you to flash a new ROM and see if things get any better. Peace!
