Can somebody tell me what's wrong with the following please?

B4X:
reg.New1
      reg.RootKey(reg.rtCurrentUser)
 reg.SetDWordValue("Software\Microsoft\Today\Items\HTC Sense", "Enabled", 1)

Thank you.

Hi, what is the error returned?
Maybe the path is wrong or the Key is not created yet...

Shouldn't your root key be "rtLocalMachine" as indicated on the status line of your screenshot?

Ah, :signOops: Yes, more than likely.

Sorry about that <embarrassed> I'll try again...

My only (poor) excuse is that I'm a total newbie to B4PPC.

Thank you.

EDIT: It's working now of course - no errors.

Now, can somebody tell me how to refresh the Today screen please?

Oh, another problem

I've just tried to switch HTC Sense off with:

B4X:
reg.New1
      reg.RootKey(reg.rtLocalMachine)
   reg.SetDWordValue("Software\Microsoft\Today\Items\HTC Sense", "Enabled", 0)

But it doesn't switch off. Why?

Try rebooting the device.

Yeah, that'd work but I really want to avoid that. I know that in Mortscript you can switch Sense off with that registry key, refresh the today screen and it switches off. B4PPC must be able to some how, mustn't it?

I've just tried this:

B4X:
Sub RestartSense
reg.New1
      reg.RootKey(reg.rtLocalMachine)
      reg.SetDWordValue("Software\Microsoft\Today\Items\HTC Sense", "Enabled", 0)
          dzh.New1
        dzh.PostMessage(65535,26,0,0)
        End Sub

But it didn't shut down Sense Am I doing this right?

Many thanks

B4X:
PostMessage(65535, 26, 0, 0)
Maybe it's not the same Window Handler on your device...
Try to write this:
B4X:
If dzhw.PostMessage(65535, 26, 0, 0) Then
    Msgbox("Ok!")
Else
    Msgbox("Error...")
End If
If it return Error so the Window Handler field is not correct...

Thanks for your help. It returns "Ok!", but Sense still doesn't switch off

Any ideas?

Thank you.

Arrggh! There must be a way of doing this, but I've searched everywhere and can't find a solution
