Hi Guys,
i was helping a friend with his new Omnia and it seems that im to dumb for it :-(
Im used to HTC Devices and never had such issues before.
My problem: How can i enter the original WM65 Settings?!?!
And how can i disable the TouchWiz UI??
Any help extremly welcome.
btw: it has an original 65 on it.
Click start> settings> Display and light> Items on today in here you can turn off the Samsung Touchwiz today screen and enable windows default.
To turn off the other stuff like menu go to start> settings> general settings> Samsung Touchwiz UI from here if you turn this off it gets rid of the Samsung menus amongst other things.
To revert back even further you can delete the theme in the windows startup directory which turns off almost all the Samsung interfaces. Also if you remove that it shows the windows mobile settings icon as well as Samsung menu settings option.
All the settings from the windows mobile settings are available in the samsung settings menu but depending on what you are after you might have to look around more the manual could probably help with this.
As far as I know anymore than that you would have to install a custom rom on the phone.
thx friend - that was what i am looking for.
Worked out great.

Hi guys,
After trying all of the roms on the forum I've decided I want a clean HTC wm 6.1 rom.
I was hoping that the rom would have the home screen pictured in all of microsoft's videos, but it seems that the screen is not available in the rom designed for our device.
Does anyone have any ideea how I can get that feature?
Thank you,
Andrei
Uncheck the HTC Home today item plugin in Start -> Settings -> Personal -> Today icon -> Items tab. There you can select all the other stuff like Owner Info, Device Lock, etc.
Nope. It's not what i'm looking for.
What i'm looking for is the windows slide home screen...
If I think I know what you're talking about, that might be for non touch screen devices, not the wm6 pro on the Cruise.
Anyone know how to switch back to the original windows 6.5 start menu? I want to give it a try with touch flo.
I also wouldn't mind being able to do this. I like TouchFlo, but I like the standard Start menu much much better.
Go to settings, all settings, today settings and change it there.

No, we said we want to keep TouchFlo, but go back to the standard 6.5 start menu. Nothing in Today Settings would do that.
same here i also would like to have the classic apps page back for touch flow anyone know how to make this happen?
Touch Flo overrides the standard WM 6.5 interface, you have to select one or the other. Going in to the today settings and selecting Windows Default you can see that it forces to uncheck touch flo.
There could be a reg edit somewhere to disable it... Hopefuly
I am not sure if it works with this phone, but I allays use a cab that was released with the Manila 2.1 VGA ports that disables the HTC Start menu. I will be trying for myself when my phone arrives on Tuesday.
here you go....
verified to work on the imagio.

You sir, are a GOD! This worked perfectly, except when I soft-reset, it started TouchFlo, but just displayed a blank today screen with my background until I hit the start button. But I never shut off my phone, so thanks, this is great!
LOL. i got this back when juicy was making his first manila 2.1 rom.
i think it is actually from xboxmod's original 2.1 port thread.
anyway it works great for me and doesn't cause any problems.
can we customized the touch flo menu? i want to remove the weather & map serach icon.
Switch to Win 6.5 start menu
Works great, thanks alot!!!!!
Hi guys
Been searching for ages now on the forum and on Google and haven't been able to find the solution to a couple of issues I'm having with Sense 2.5 on the official HTC ROM (which was flashed by HTC on repair of my TP2)
1 - the text messaging is useless (for me) in Sense 2.5. I prefer the original Windows mobile way of messaging - how do I get back to that? SMS doesn't appear in Outlook anymore???
2 - None of my methods that worked in the previous WM6.5 Sense 2.1 ROM for making the Start menu appear in 4 rows seems to work?
3 - Shapps Advanced Config seems to disable my settings? I can't get into Remove programs so can't uninstall? Need to Hard Reset?
If anyone can help with the above I'd be very grateful!
Thanks
Hello,
1. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=556614
3. Go to the Manila Settings-Tab. There is a program entry (I don't now how it calls in english ROMs). There you can unistall Software.
Hi ChatFix
Thanks for a quick reply!
I'll have a look at that link now
Unfortunately I didn't explain 3 properly - the settings tab in manilla is not accessible once I install Advanced Config, so there's no way of actually getting back to the Remove Applications icon to be able to uninstall it...

1. I can use Windows Messaging instead of HTC messaging with no problems.
2. I do have this problem, but I believe there is a reg edit specific to 6.5 that my 6.5.5 one does not work on nor does any that were for Sense 2.1.
3. I think your installation of the ROM or Advanced Config is borked. I have no problems at all.
I have found this little tool. So you can disable Manila, uninstall your software and enable manila with the today-settings from windows mobile.
Hi guys!
Thanks for your replies, it's really appreciated
Nagrom - Did you use the link provided by ChatFox to enable use of the Windows Messaging Client rather than the HTC one?
Chatfix - what exactly does that file do? Does it disable the entire Manilla 'home' screen and display the standard Windows Today screen (or WM6.5 Titanium screen) or does it still display the normal Manilla 'home' screen but disable certain parts of the HTC 'wrapper' (e.g. notification bar)
Oh - after the last hard reset, Advanced Config appears to be working OK now, phew!
I'm teetering on the edge of reflashing the old Sense 2.1 ROM, but I really don't want to!
This file disables all Today-Plugins. (Manila 2.5 is still a Today-Plugin)
I am interested if I could somehow remove all the stuf from "today" screen
I love when I see walpaper and nothing more, interested in whether they can do it somehow, and if you can then how?
I believe that much like them that look.
or perhaps to add a new screen or box and set as "today" and the original "today" screen get 2 place and a different name.
THANK YOU ALL IN ADVANCE
Installing Cookie's Home Tab gives you the option to keep using Sense, with the possibility to simply drag away your quicklinks, displaying only the time and your wallpaper.
Or you can go to Settings => All Settings => Today
Uncheck HTC Sense and enable Windows Default
This will allow you to use the main Windows OS interface
Thanx a LOT !
Can You help me please, what Cockie's home should I download from the Internet?
and can You link me a thread on which is described how to adjust it.

hi all bros and sis . been away too long from wm devices and really lost touch.
recently bought a X2 and i did an update via the sony ericsson update software.
after which , the phone interface seems slightly different from what it seems to be from i first got it.
not much an issue except , i frequently use inputs like transcriber and hand regconition .but now even that option is gone.
usually right beside the onscreen keyboard tab , there is a small arrow whereby it will pop up the option to change input and settings , but now that arrow is gone . i tried going thru the entire settings but cant find any way to change it .
and i realized that i cant really go back to the default wm6.5 interface but all i keep getting is spb shell's and stuff.
anyone can give me any suggestion on how to get to the input options?
thanks in advance

Well the simple answer is - it's not there!
You just have one option - SE keyboard.
As for interface - what do you mean?
If you want default WM 6.5 UI just use default Panel.
All the apps now look a bit different since now it's WM 6.5.3 which is much changed from 6.5.2..............
thanks for the reply brudder!
its sad to see they took the input options away.
anyway sorry for being a noob myself , how do i set back to the default UI or
the classic today screen ?
cos no matter how i try it still brings me back to either those installed panels .
i have read that after the update , radio fm should be available.but i cant seem to locate it anywhere as well.
sigh.. this is getting really fustrating .
Okay.
Radio is in SlideView - press the left/down button once under the left call button.
Under Multimedia you'll find the radio.
Default UI - one of the Panels. Double click the same button, you'll see Panels = homescreens to choose from.
WM default homescreen is looking a bit different now however it can be set as W 6.1
in Settings - Today....
