Replace clearvue PDF with Acrobat..


Recommended Posts

Okay, i'm having some "problems" (actually, more of an annoyance) with a Qtek 9100 (the HTC Wizard). It's the Qtek branded phone, and unfortunately, it comes with a lot of bundled software out of the box, pre-installed. One of these softwares is Clearvue PDF. I don't really like the reader, cause it doesn't scale down Pdf's to fit the screens size as one would expect, whereas Adobe Acrobat Mobile does. However, Clearvue PDF isn't listed in the add/remove programs on the device, so i cannot remove it. Or actually, i don't know how.

Installed a registry editor, checked the HKCR\pdffile key, removed one key with a commandline to the clearvue pdf program. When i try to open a PDF saved to the storage card, it opens up using Acrobat (Yay!), however, when using push mail and opening an attached pdf (attached to an email that is..) it opens using clearvue. Searched the registry a bit, but couldn't find a specific regkey to correct this. Searched the internet, but no way to remove the software. I'm at a loss here, any way to remove the pre-installed software or has any1 had the same difficulties and found a way 'round them? Thanks! :)

ClearVue PDF is in the ROM, so you can't remove it, unless you flash the ROM with a more basic one.

I don't know if you can remake the file association to make all pdf's open with Adobe; Resco File Explorer has an'Open With' command allowing you to 'Always use this program..'
