[Q] Locking Devices Down for customization? - Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General

Just realized I put this in the wrong spot. Can someone please move this to the right forum category? Thank you!
I hope this is the right spot for this. I've search and so far not found the answer I am hoping to find.
I have a series of GPS devices (Trimble) with Windows Mobile 6.1 on them that I'm setting up for our field crews. I'm in the process of setting them up to be universal in the settings so anyone can grab and use any device without trying to figure out where everything is again.
Is there a way that I can lock down these devices where the field guys can't go back behind me, once I've made them universal, and change everything around? Or do you all have any suggestions on things that may help me with this? I'm thinking along the lines from wallpapers and customizations and even down to changing owner information. I'd just like to keep these similar and not let them get out of control and messy, if you know what I mean.
Thanks in advance for any help!

WM6 Device Lock Filename

Does anyone know the exact name and location of the WM6 device lock file, ie the one where you can either use a simple pin or a complex password to enter your device? I definitely do not mean keylock.exe, as this is the wrong file.
I have searched this entire site using both google search and the normal search and drawn a blank. Also drawn a blank on the wider internet search although I admit my search criteria may be the problem.
Thanks in advance for your help.

if you can't find an existing app to run that will lock your device, perhaps it would be easier to write your own?
at first glance, it would appear that a call to SHDeviceLockAndPrompt would do what you need
dalelane,
Thanks for this pointer. Interesting thought on writing a bespoke app; however I'm keen to use what's already there.
Problem is I need to ensure that one cannot circumvent the existing lock process when its engaged. At the moment I can do this, which worries me.
Appreciate the input.

Hi
Have you found a Solution?

DanielS,
I went down the route where I made sure I wasn't running any apps that could circumvent the lock and that's about it, really.
I never actually got a direct answer to the original question I posed.

[Q] Customizing TF3D Clock Tap Behavior

Hey all,
Recently purchased a Touch Diamond and have been heavily modifying the software/rom over the past few days. I'd first like to thank everyone who has contributed! There is such much information out there that it's sometimes hard to disseminate it all for new users.
In any case I have done a lot of extensive searching for this question and I've found a possible solution but only leads to more questions for me. Here's my question, how can I customize the application which is launched when I tap the clock on the TF3D home screen?
Through searching I've found I might have been able to edit manila.xml (26948339_manila) but couldn't find anything specific to application launching in that file. I also found reference to using something called "SSMaP" but was unable to find any further information regarding this application via the forums of google.
Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Thanks,
-Mike

[Q] Anyone able to change the battery icon/toggle buttons on Note?

Hi Well-Esteemed XDA Developers
May I ask for your expertise in changing the battery icon as well as the color of the toggle buttons in the notification bar up top?
I've already rooted my Note and tried the paid version of ROM Toolbox, but even after rebooting, the battery icon refuses to change. I understand that the toggle widgets might be harder to modify, so I'll be patient with this, hoping someone would find a way around this.
I apologize in advance if this is something that has already been fixed, my last Samsung was the Omnia i908 for Windows Mobile 6, and I've checked other threads specific to the Galaxy Note and nobody has yet brought this up.
Thanks once again XDA for the amazing experience you've bought to my Android experience!
You may need to wait a little while until the devs get their hands on this device. Be sure to check out the "GN Android Development" forum instead of "General" for this kind of modding.
You can use uotkitchen website to do it. Works perfectly on my GN
how did you manage to change the icon... i have kitchenpro but i'm a noob, so i'll be extremely grateful if you could share how to change it
