I have been trying to find how to open Windows Mobile control panel. It's missing in start menu, only samsung settings there but it has many settings missing like Screen (need to change font size), Today (need to remove background picture) etc.. I can't find these setting in Samsung settings

How can I access default Windows Mobile settings screen, anybody knows? Or how to get that linbk back to Start menu?

Thanks

They hide it on purpose for you ;) You can make it visible by a registery change.

Go to: HKLM\Security\Shell\StartInfo and change HideSettings to 0

Hi, I tried that., but the settings didn't appear.

I restarted the phone, and still nothing.

I went back to the registry setting, and it was back to 1.

Ideas?

I have one :lol:

Try again (editing the registry) wait a minute or two (best: your phone turns automatically off) and then do a restart...

(sometimes your setting-adjustments aren't saved so fast to your PIM)

ok, the setting has now stayed for 5 minutes.

nothing changed and the phone didn't turn off.

should I now restart the phone?

will the reset-button do or do I have to remove the battery?

Go into your registry, to [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Shell\StartInfo] and rename field 'HideSettings' to 'HideSettings_' or something. You can also delete the field, but then you won't be able to find it back.

Don't set the value to zero, because the system will put it back to 1 after rebooting.

Soft-reset, if all went well, you now have two 'settings' icons in the Start Menu.
