Startup Manager for Hero? - Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps

Is there an app that can manage which programs are run at startup? There are some things such as peep, footprints that i don't use so would prefer them not to be using up valuable memory.

Try Autostarts, but you need to be rooted!

Disable password demand when using exchange

Hi.
I use my Diamond to connect to my companys exchange-server to be able to read my mail, sync calendar and such from my phone. This is working just fine, except one "little" thing.
When installing the exchange account I had to activate the lock on the Diamond so that after 10min of not being used it needs to have a pincode to enable access to the menues.
This annoys me and I would appreciate if there was a way I could disable this. Being a non-hacker myself I have no idea how to do this and is therefor asking in here, where I have realised there is a vast knowledge of WM available. You gues are awsome.
Cheerio.
I think its this u will have to do.
1.find the Lock under settings, there you can disable the lock.
2. Or if you are using exchange 2007, in the exchange 2007 go to Organization Configuration and Client access.Enter the policy that is the default policy.

1. The disable lock-setting is grayed out, I am not allowed to uncheck that box.
2. I do not have access to the exchange-server and cannot make any changes there.
Maybe I should have been more specific when describing the issue

Try this program. It does what you want nice and easy. I use it for quite a time now.
Zenyee Stay Unlock
I have installed it. However, I cannot find it under Programs. How do I run it?
I'd like to use it only when I am using TomTom.

It´s put in the windows autostart folder and therefore runs automatically in the background - always. Don´t worry, it doesn´t use a lot of resources.
As for your request to only have it running when using TomTom you will have to remove the .lnk file from the autostart folder and run the program manually (the .exe is in the windows root folder).
After using TomTom you´ll have to stop the process with SK-Tools or similar.....a bit of a hassle, if you ask me.....
I have had it running continuously on all my current and previous devices...
My Zenyee Stay Unlock stoped working for me. I have removed it and re-installed it. It worked for a few hours. The same 15 min lock come back to me again.
Has anyone experienced the same thing? How do I fix it? It is hard to use TomTom with the 15 min lock.

Worked for me.
Copy exe from that page to your diamond.
Run it and disable policy.
Disable lockup from lock in settings.
Now you have no lockup. Install better lockup program that can be disabled when needed. (Still looking)

programs uninstaller!

I tried searching the board but didnt find any appropriate link regarding this..
anyway there are some factory programs loaded that I dont need/use, is there a way to remove them to free up RAM?
uninstall
if you are referring to uninstallation tts similar to uninstalling a program on windows...
then u can find it under Start >>> Settiings.. not the tf3d's settings but the one under windows mobile
there should be a icon called REMOVE PROGRAMS under the SYSTEM tab..
alternatively, you could run activesync and under program management untick the relevant programs and it will uninstall on its next sync

its called cooking your own ROM..
you can have certain things not load up by doing a soft-reset when the auto-config pops up on 1st boot after ROM upgrade or hard-reset..
but then you gotta go find the cabs for the stuff that you want

with that being said, how do i get start on cooking my own ROM (..yes i guess i can do a search on this as well)? and where do I go to find all CABs for certain programs?

No apps what-so-ever, just a basic, base rom, that includes a folder full of cabs, with a launcher than allows you to select which cabs to install.
Flash the new rom, then manually exec the launcher, put ticks next to the apps you want, networks you want setup etc, then hit the go button and sit back while your device gets only the stuff you actually want installed.
Thats my ideal!

ROTFL! "Panelstine"! MUHAHAHA...
The idea for the basic ROM with separate CAB folder sounds great.
I'm also a big fan of Windows Side Show, if you haven't seen it yet you should definitely sheck it out. It's an app using BlueTooth to control your Vista machine, e.g. Windows Media Player, PowerPoint, Outlook, Facebook, etc. Very cool app I must say, but if the basic ROM will get cooked I can install that again myself.
As well as also liking to choose! I would also like to see Remote Sim Access for connection to certain handsfree car kits...
This notion of installing cabs after the flash is all well and good but they will take up storage space, you can't install them to the rom after the flashing procedure so they need to be built in before the flashing procedure to get them into the rom space, maybe one day there'll be a simple chooser to allow people to build their own roms but it's still a long way off..
There is a system to allow people to install their own cabbed software automatically it's called UC and developed by Sleuth255 there's a config builder for it here.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=371832
the rom needs to be built as UC compliant to do this but that's not hard.
The Rom has 512mb of space, this can't be used after a rom has been flashed, so unless you fill it with applications it's going to remain empty and be wasted. it shouldn't be used for apps that get updated regularily 'cos that's a pain to overwrite, or commercial apps 'cos that restricts what people can use.
IMHO It's better to have all the essential apps (and things like tf3d) built into the rom and save the 256mb of storage for apps that are updated frequently or commercial stuff.
Hi
I see what you mean, but given that the X1 has loads of storage, I cant see post install of apps being an issue. You would have to install every app on the planet to fill 256MB? Apps that have huge requirements (tom-tom etc) would just use the SD card?
Additionally, this would mean that those apps had an entry in 'remove programs' and thus could be easily upgraded when new ones came out - or removed if no longer required. Also, you would not need to flash a new rom just to get the latest TF3D installed.
Personally, I just don't have the time to re-flash more than once every 6 months - it takes too long to get the device back into a state where its usable again.
I think this convenience is a small price to pay for under utilising the 512MB of ROM.

How to remove programs installed on device[not Internal Storage]

Can anybody tell how to uninstall a program which has been installed on the device itself?
Uninstall...
All applications, whether installed to Internal Storage or device memory are un-installed the same way - via the 'Remove Programs' option under system settings. If the application doesn't show up in the list, then it's probably installed in the ROM, in which case you can't remove it.
Hope this helps

You might have to stop the program first (if it is running) before you can uninstall it. Use something like MemMaid or Pocket Mechanic or SKTools to stop and then remove your program.

It isn't even listed. So it's not that it won't (completely) uninstall.
I've just reflashed it, so yeah...

running out of App storage

Hi,
I have had my Kaiser since it was released over 2 years ago.
I have a 8gb MicroSD that i try to install my apps onto, but i always seem to run out of 'device application storage space'
So my question is, what are you doing to stop this from happening.
Can we use this thread to create a list of apps that are best to run on the device and which ones can be run on the storage card?
Thanks
PS. im also tempted to try a different rom to increase space, any suggestions as im running the official 6.1 from my carrier.

There are a lot of good roms, just look over in the Kaiser Rom Development, read signatures to find out what a lot of people are using. Everyone has there own personal preference.
As far as what to install on SD Card and what to install on main memory, it goes kinda like this. If it is a dedicated program that you need to rely on, like G-Alarm or SPB Time for example, install it in main memory. If it is a program that runs on the today screen or in the background, install it to main memory. Programs like SPB Mobile Shell, WAD2, Palringo and other chat software can go to main memory. Anything else unless the programs says otherwise, can go on the SD Card. I always ask myself this, if my SD Card failed what are my few must have important apps that I need to make it through the rest of the day/week? I always put my entertainment crap on the SD, and only my important apps on the main storage.
Hope that steers you in the right direction.

Yes, 285 posts since 07 driven by various questions and answers for others.
Rom swapping was limited to 6.0 to 6.1 official '3'rom,
Have tried numerous UI's including SPB Mobile Shell, Winterface etc but ended up reverting back to my basic stable set up. (ref my sig)
Had toyed with HTC Cube but a hard reset made me realize it it was more novelty than useful. had a fiddle with M2D but it was only a cab and not fully integrated into the ROM, so i ditched it.
But now that im hitting the max storage again, im tempted to play with a new rom.
edit: just checked the Memory status and actually is the Storage Memory that i keep maxing out, not the Program storage (28Mb free) as i originally thought. I use memaid daily to regain space, but i guess its not enough!

That is exactly the problem I'm having. I just recently bought one of these phones (used with preloaded apps) & it's kind of frustrating to see the storage memory near max (127MB).. I have deleted or moved some things to my removable memory card. I got it down to about 12MB of free space, but it seems to decrease daily!? right now its down to 6mb of free space in just 1 day & i have not added any apps. I'm confused how this is happening
Can you or anyone help?

Thanks stylez. I had already cleared/deleted my temp files a few days ago using that app. In the meantime though my free storage space (RAM) continues to decrease even when I'm not actively using any app!?? This is what puzzles me the most. Out of 128 MB ram, I'm now down to ~3.5 MB! Do you know what could be causing this or what to do? There are only 7 programs listed in my storage memory. Should i remove all of them except maybe "MS classic blue" (whatever that is).
When it boots up, the screen displays "TPC Elite ROM series" & then series of digits & text in the lower right corner of the screen. I'm new to using pocketpc's but it seems this device is running some mods? I have installed:
WM 6.5 (professional)
ROM version: TPC_V11_MEGA WWE (11/04/09)
touchflo v3.0
s2u2 (v2.04)
CHome editor (v1.6 beta)
titanium weather
Aebutton plus (v2.6.6.1)
& a host of other apps some of which I understand their function & some I don't.
Also a few days ago I was able to move some apps from the phone's storage
memory to my storage card. I was only able to move 2 or apps, but couldn't move others. Whenever I tried moving or deleting files/apps it wouldn't allow me to do so. I used total commander ce (v2.51) to do this. I have "file explorer" installed, but it seems less robust & have fewer features.
Any suggestions on how to move these apps or delete unwanted files?
thanks all.

Ok now i know what the problem is "as have ROM info" It's deblogger solution is you can't delete folder Deblogger use Task Manager and kill cprog.exe then delete
Thanks stylez, but I thought I read somewhere that cprog.exe file is an integral part of WM6.5 & utilizing the phone & killing or deleting it could be bad?
have you deleted this file from your phone? if so is there some other that replaces its functionality or is it even necessary?

Delete the deblogger folder, as the solution says it's on root, you may not be able to delete without stopping the process cprog.exe it will have no effect on cprog.exe in the Windows Directory.
I dont have deblogger in my ROM as no Mega M2D and all recent releases don't as TPC cooked the ROM before we knew the issue existed.
Thanks for the tips. i followed the instructions, checked my free space & it was up to 76MB at 11am when i deleted it.
Do you know what these other softwares are for that I listed? I tried researching them, but am not sure if they are critical or what I can do to move them if not? (using total commander did not work)(

You can't move programs cooked in ROM "Read Only Memory" files
Aebutton plus (v2.6.6.1) is a button mapper allows multi function per button press "very handy"
titanium weather Application for CHome weather
CHome editor (v1.6 beta) Allows moving panels, making new panels etc in CHome
s2u2 (v2.04) Lock screen
touchflo v2.0 M2D homescreen
thanks again stylez!
ok 1 month later I have the same problem! i deleted the deblogger folder. & i may have done another reinstall since then, but it has resurfaced. is there any way to make this a read only file instead of deleting it?
