Dear HTC LEO, welcome in my life.
But why is there no way to activate the quick menu?(on the upper right corner?)
And how about the lock screen? every time the device wakes up it locks.
how do i disable and enable these things?

I'm wondering the exact same thing myself mate.
Can no-one help?
Another here who misses the 'Quick Menu'.
There's a lot of talk on not being able to shut down programs that are loaded into memory without now having to launch the Task Manager first, but this was all part of the same HTC Task Manager.... you either closed it or brought it to the front.

several threads going on this. HTC task manager cab can be found in the threads "hints and tips". The cab has been provided by Dutty Throy. I have read that some users need to disable htc sence before installing.

Thanks for that, but that doesn't work for me. Strange, since other HD2 users are okay with that cab.

Yes, I'm well aware of those topics. I've contributed to some myself.
What I am saying though is although there is a lot of talk on this no one seems to mention the Quick Menu's acxess list.
Everone talks of being able to access the closed 'X'.

I agree. If the memory management is so super-duper that it can leave programs open and not have a detrimental effect then that doesn't help me switch between them on my MULTI-TASKING smart phone now does it!
I just want the quick menu back. I hate the idea of having to flash a ROM onto a phone that I've had for less than a day, just to get some of the functionality that I expected to be standard.
You can switch to running application by running it again.

I've been using a very similar OS for over a year now, and have always been able to just click the down arrow in the top right of my home screen for a list of running apps. This is what people are asking for, not work-rounds.
Besides, if the app in question is in a sub-menu of a sub-menu of the start menu, then it becomes a real pain to run it again. It's quicker to stick the task manager on your quick links on the home page and use that (despite the fact that that is ANOTHER app running, and we don't have access to exclusions any more either).

Yes but this is exactly why there is an issue in not having a 'Quick Menu'.
Running them again you have to open Start then find the program (of which if you have many, many programs/games can take quite a bit of effort).
Much simpler to just open the 'Quick Menu' and click on the already opened program.....

Hi,
I think I saw one app called AppSentry on freewareppc.com for exactly that purpose.
AppSentry
I've never tried it before so I have no idea if it works or not.
I hope this helps.
Try this, works just like on computer.
Put in your phone and assign it to voice command key.

I think that closes only the active program (like alt+f4) and not all running programs.
if you would have searched you would find appsentry here in the forum. so dont start such threads ! thats not the sense of xda devs, because there are many solutions like vjokbutt and so on. because of this many noob "i have a question"-threads we cant find here anything.
and you really need help: "task killler" ? did you try taskmanager, close button or similar ? think about it.
there is a 'closeAll' app in the rs folder linked in my signature
i am sorry,maybe i have started the topic in the wrong section but i have searched for an hour before starting.i searched here,google and in lot of other freeware sites like the freewareppc.com.
i have tried the AppSentry and CloseAll but i cant install them because "...the installation file is not intended for this device", i have also installed a lot of others task managers or app killer(DottfredTaskmanager,appcloser,killcprog,etc...) but they are not automatic or not intended for such a option.
OK ...i am closing the topic and excuse me for the trouble. :-(

I recommend using JWMD's Icon Changer, but many recommend Showaco's reSTART. The 'how to' instructions for each app can be found in that thread I just linked.
Hums.. None of those work like the custom rom i had on my fuze.. I was able to click and hold on an icon, and then it would 'glow' and i could move them around.. Im not sure what program, if any, was used for that either..

Does anyone know how to change the lock slider to the bottom like the iPhone? please help. Thanks.
search "S2U2" via google.
problem is I'll slide twice as both two lock screen programs are running
For a start, there is a way to turn off the default lock screen if you're using S2U2
Tip 27 from the Hints and Tips thread (I strongly suggest you read it all)
Tip 27. Disable Auto Screen Lock
If you use S2U2, you would have hated the double lock annoyance. Now you can turn off default Auto Screen Lock.
Go to HKCU\ControlPanel\Keybd and change DeviceLockWhenSuspend to 0, or use the following cab:

Second, you don't need to use a 3rd party app, you can just run the HeartOfWolf Lockscreen mod in my signature and it'll move the slider to the bottom of the screen for you. I have no idea why they put it at the top?

You can try the HD2 Mini lockscreen cab..it's quite good, just don't use the PIN unlock.
It's slide down to unlock and it tells you any missed calls, SMS, emails etc...i quite like it actually..

You can also take a look at this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=632637
At the bottom, the OP posted a modified 480x800 cpr file to do want you want. All you need to do is change the extension from .txt to .cpr, open file explorer and put it in the Windows\Lockscreen file and soft reset.
EDIT:
Also, if you are using the HeartofWolf Mod and would prefer to have the original larger slider size instead of the small skinny one, I've made a few modifications to his LS_LockScene_480x800 and attached it below. All you need to do is change the file extension from .txt to .cpr and install it into your windows\lockscreen file, soft reset and you're good to go. Of course, please back up the original LS_LockScene_480x800 before installing this one, just in case you would like to revert back to the small slider. And of course all credits to HeartofWolf, I just made a couple of changes to his work.

It literally swaps the slider and phone location on the lock screen, nothing more.
Another nice solution is DJ Pete's locksreen. It's a simple modification of the windows lockscreen with manila clock, calendar appointments and slider variations. You can find it at pocketpc.ch in the thread
[Lockscreen] iLook v3.0c [NEUE VERSIONEN!|WM6.5/6.5.x WVGA][27.02.10].

Kandekied, to get you started, go into your windows directory inside file explorer and open the lockscreen folder. Next, copy the file LS_LockScene_480x800 somewhere onto your PC and open it using notepad. That particular file is for Portrait. If you want to modify landscape also, then copy LS_Lockscene_800x480. With the file open on your PC in notepad, you are now ready to begin modifying. The particulars of what you want to do would take alot of space on this post to describe, but to get you pointed in the right direction, I've copied a few threads for you to look at that will help you get started.

You see, this is why I asked for more information about this in the first place. I never install a cab that I've not read about first and that people have tested a bit. You should always link to the thread a cab came from, not just the cab.
Also, chill out. You installed a cab from a random thread and it wasn't what you wanted. If you have to hard reset it's your problem not ours.
If people don't reply to a post it's because they either don't want to or don't know. There is no point in wetting your panties and posting multiple times. It's more likely just to p!ss everyone off and make them not reply.
