You may already be familiar with the InboxExtender install as it is one of the examples in the WM6 SDK install. This dll is very handy in that it lets you mark an entire folder as read by adding a "Mark All as Read" menu option.
Unfortunately... there is also a very dangerous menu option that is located just a fraction of an inch away. It is labeled "Delete All" and if you accidentally click it, it will without any warning, delete the entire contents of the current MAPI folder.
I have added some code to this dll that places a safety mechanism around the delete functionality. It will simply ask you for verification of your actions before continuing. A simple fix indeed, but makes the dll actually usable.
I have also modified the dll to "unregister" the previous dll (if you had Q Inbox Extender installed). This should have no effect if you had no previous installation.
Instructions:
1.) Copy SafeInboxExtender.cab to your device
2.) Navigate to the cab on your device and click it
3.) Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the install
4.) SOFT RESET!
5.) The "Delete All" function should now be safe!
Please let me know how it works for you.
seems to be very handy. will try it later. thanks...
awesome. Thanks for your work.
that's really great, i could use that before.
thank you very much
this type of menu editing, could you do the same thing to the calendar menu to add an option or edit a current option?
Nice, Great & Good Job
Thanks Ken Pendlebury Great Job!!!
Excellent, just started using this, of course only because it took me almost an hour of searching to find. We really need a thread of site devoted to links to all the various programs that have been developed here on xda-dev.
REQ: anybody thinks it would be a great idea if someone can develop a menu extension just like this for the EXIT or Close of a program - for those many programs that force you to use the X/OK button which is really a pain when trying to use one handed.
Is there anyway to have your messages marked as read via a program execution or maybe a script? Will this program do this?
This is awesome! What a great idea! I've been using it for a few weeks, and definitely saved myself the annoyance of having to restore all of my text messages after accidentally deleting them!
Safe Inbox Extender Much Appreciated!
Absolutely [email protected]#ing awesome! I have been looking for this for a long time. I have accidentally deleted all of my emails more than once. Thanks.

Good one. Thanks mate!
Good job, but is it possible to add it in manila menu?
nice i will check this out

Is there any posibility of marking the messages one at a time. Sometimes it is necessary to delete just some of the messages, I don't see any option to mark individual messages

This is a great tool, however on Calc's new rom and with arcsoft mms on sprint, it wont work! Selecting mark all as read brings up the arcsoft settings screen, any ideas?
Thanks mate.

Hello,
I write a little Today Plugin to configure and switch between differents phone modes. The system/phone volume, the ring mode and the SMS, reminders notifs are customizable. The graphics too.
I use it for 2 weeks now but I'd like some people try it and give me their feedback, comments...
You can find all here : PocketZenPhone
These are the future of phone profile control, as far as I can tell. Yours is now the second app to provide this functionality, and more can only be good. The other one is PhoneProfilesSeriously (seriously ), which seems to be full of bugs, judging by the comments made in these forums.
I have some comments about your software. Hope this helps!
- The icons are too big. Maybe we could have the option to choose the profile using smaller icons on the Today screen? I know that we can make our own icons, but even if they are smaller with a transparent surrounding, they will still use the same space on the Today screen.
- I would like more than four definable profiles.
- It would be nice to be able to choose a specific sound to be played for each alert type in each profile (i.e. complete alert- and profile-specific sounds).
Good work!
I can say it's a promising start. However, the setup screen will make THE difference. It's a bit difficult to adjust the configuration using the text file . It reminds me when I was using Borland C++ to develop Win 3.1 applications before the first VB version
I have to do many trials to get the desired result.
Keep going ... Good work!! ... but waiting for the user friendly version
Excellent LITTLE utility.
I had bought "My Phone Profiles", and removed it to use this one. "My phone Profiles" was buggy and made the whole device very slow.
You might want to try the attached settings. Just unzip and copy to:
\Program Files\PocketZenPhone\
I say excellent work (especially with the extra icons)
One thing: Could you find an easier way to setup the profiles, better than to tweak the Phonesettings.txt file
I currently add a window to set the phone modes and I will try to add more settings (notifs ...)
But I have not many time to program this software so it will take a little time to implement new fontions ...
The version 2 is online (download and doc here : http://zendrui.free.Fr )
I add a configuration window and allow to customize the notifications.
I will maybe try to allow to configure the sound for the notification and maybe ring tone but later ...
I don't touch to the icons size for the moment but if it is a big problem I will see :wink:
As always do not hesitate to give me your feedbacks
Thanks
PS : If somenone has made his own icons could it share them ?
Does this software work with WM2002 as well?
I compiled it using the Pocket PC 2003 SDK but I don't use any PPC2003 specific functions.
So this should work under PPC2002 but I cannot try as my XDA is under WM2003...
Let me know if it works ... if not I will try to make a PPC2002 version ...
Being new to this I downloaded the files but they are not the installer type that automaticly install,
They are .001 files what do I do with them?
On a WM2002 machine the programme (v2, 26-2-2004) does not seem to install correctly. After copying and executing the cab file it looks like it installs and it does make the PocketZenPhone directory, but no .exe file can be found. Did I do something wrong?
To Jim
Just copy the file as it is to your device, and run it from there. It will install automatically as a today plugin.
You should have download a .cab file (PocketZenPhone.arm.cab exactly)
Copy it on your pocket (through activeSync for example)
Then on your pocket click on this .cab
It will install automatically the Today plugin.
After that go to Settings->Today->Items and you should see PocketZenphone in the list (it should be checked)
Simply click on ok and when you return to the today page the plug in should appear...
PS for vhan3 : This is not an exe file but a dll file ... so it is normal you don't see it directly on your pocket ... The cab file only creates the registry keys, create the directory and copy the dll on it
No comments at this time but this nice program seems to have lots of promise.
Thanks
Nice work, zendrui
Just 3 comments:
1. After first install, all profiles volumes are set to -1 (Perharps because of an empty regisrty at this time). Should set default values like in V1
2. Uninstall is... arrrggg... impossible until you rename dll and reset. Now, I know... no matter (First tried to uninstall after above bug occured)
3. WORKS GREAT !!! VERY NICE TOOL, VERY USEFULL TOO. THANK YOU !

Hello,
1) Ok I will add default params for each modes
2) To uninstall a today plugin you have to disable it before uninstall it.
So to uninstall PocketZenPhone, simply go to Settings->Today->Items, then uncheck PocketZenphone in the list. After that you can uninstall it without any problem (no reset ...)
3) Thanks feel free to give more comments

Thanks a lot. On my Qtek 2020 your programme works great and just as advertised. It is exactly what I needed so I hope you will be able to compile it for PPC2002 as well. I'll test it for you.
Well, there you have it... that's the question, and the answer is obvious.
However, the caveat is not...
Does AEButton save your changes to the registry, or to a DLL?
Can someone tell me how I would go about cooking my personalizations into my ROM?
yes, you need to get the OEM package for it though. I have a lot of packages, but no aebutton.
you can one of two things....
1. learn how to create your own packages. there are a few tutorals here on xda.
2. send me the app and seriall number for activation and I will put one together for ya.
email is codyppc at gmail dot com
Cody,
thanks for answering, but i think you misunderstood...
I need some help figuring out how to make an OEM that will also set up all of my current button associations. I'm not sure if there's a DLL I need to pull off my phone and overwrite in the cab, or if there are registry entries I need to add to an RGU... I'm hoping someone has that info.
Any help?

The easy way to find your answer is to use a registry compare program... Export your current registry, then change all the button assignments you want changed and then export the registry again. have the program compare the 2..... here's the registry program that I use to compare with... works great.... You should see the differences real easy if they are saved in the registry.....

Thanks. I'll give your program a try.. I've been using windiff, and haven't been able to decipher the gobbledy-gook to figure out which registry entries are changed.
Here is a working AEButtons Plus OEM.
once you try user customization, you will love the flexibility in it. If a new program comes out, you can just uninstall your current version. Or, when you reflash you can just edit your SDconfig.txt
When you cook programs into the rom, you are stuck with that version

Can you tell me how to set up AE button with user customization?
LOL. I forgot about that. yOu have to use the hide and unhide function in UC. It is posted in the UC thread. I'm laughing b/c i just remembered AE button plus gave me the hardest time at first, until I found out about the hide and unhide.
When you install AE button plus, it pulls you up to the program menu screen. That will just freeze User customization. So you have to be in unlock mode. I actually just install AE button plus and .net 3.5 upon start of UC, then I lock the phone and let it do the rest.
AE Button Plus stores its config in AEBPlus.cfg. This stores the button config as well as your registration data. That file needs to be in the same directory the rest of your AE Button plus files are.
EDIT: I have attached the OEM I use for mine. It has my AEBPlus.cfg in it which you will want to overwrite with yours. Otherwise, you will have my config as well as my serial # which is only good for my device.
Thanks guys! you're all awesome.. thanks for the help..
I'm going to try to cook AE into my next rom.. with that success, I think I'm only 1-2 steps away from having PERFECTION on my phone... haha
i found this in the Kaiser Forum, i tried it and im loving it, for me a little easier and for me then user customization (uc), much more user friendly for me. restores all my settings, email setting, speed dials, i can select were to install cab automatically (storage or main), i can run it at anytime, not just at boot up

Works on my Touch Pro just fine. Indagroove has a ROM for the touch pro & the diamond that is sashimi compliant. Install the ROM, install sashimi, reboot & off you go!
ROMs don't need to be SASHIMI compliant. You set it up on your SD card and just launch it directly from there. It'll automatically set up anything you have configured. It' a brilliant service! And it deserves a link to the official site/thread, too:
http://www.winmo-experts.com/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=4
Be sure to watch the videos - they show you exactly how to do your initial setup.
Any one has al ink to that app or can e-mail it to me?

Yup...you can download it from the below site. It's the site the creator of SASHIMI made.

heres a program i made to go with sashimi
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=582421
...............
Isn't this forbidden by the mod/owner?
Since I can't find Sashimi anywhere, is there an alternative stand-alone solution to CABs multi-installs?
I attached SASHIMI for you. I am using it for more than a year now and if/when you set it up for your taste you can automate almost everything after a new ROM flash
Or just try UC Net. It is better as Sashimi and works also on new ROM's.
Sashimi better than other customization systems
Though Sashimi stopped development I can say it is the best!!
I think people did not give time to understand the way its files work and thats why they prefer other systems that do the half work.
Other systems donot put folders or files in any device directory, they dont install mortscripts, they donot add whole files to documents folder they dont execute .reg files and makisu xml with email and wifi settings.
I wrote these lines just to tell that Bengalin did a clever brilliant job though it did not widely adapted from the phone communities.
Maybe, if people want to try it, I will write a tutorial for its basic functions and maybe Bengalin is going to come again with a new version.

The above mentioned program does all this you mentioned, plus creates automatically shortcuts individuallt or from whole folders just with a simple text file command, moves or deletes files etc etc. You can also create numbered folders with files, exes, mscrs, reg etc, which are processed one after the other. At the beginning you can choose what folders should be processed. The only thing i miss from Sashimi is the resume feature, but as it never fails during installation i really don't need it.

There is a resume feature in Sashimi.If the installation fails at some point and you restart the device and run sashimi again, then it asks you to resume or not.
Also there is no need for text file command for adding a shortcut.You just copy your tree in the root folder of auto sashimi and then the file or shortcut appears where you want it.For example, if you want to add a shortcut in start menu you copy the tree in auto sashimi root folder like this:Windows/Start Menu/Programs/Games/BubbleBreaker.lnk
But how you move or delete files?

Hi guys,
as I've been around for a while, I decided to share a bit of my work with you, too.
So feel free and use this small program if you like. No warranties as usal from my side.
This Bootmanager has a quite intuitive UI. You get an quick overview of the phone status and can select your boot profiles which you can manage inside the UI as you like (see screen shots below).
Additionally you can have voice announcements, SenseUI control, easy backup & restore of startup folder and program settings and an extended information screen. On this info panel you can find all important information about your phone.
This app only requires .NET CF 3.5 to be installed on your device.
The Pattern of the folder structure is always "\_AutoStart_" & selected Foldername. You can change the folder names in the UI settings tab. The folder "_AutoStart_Backup" is created by the program if you back up your current folder. All other "_AutoStart_" & X folders are created initially, but you want to choose which startup links are in there (folder names are case sensitive!). Just ensure the "X" matches your folder name in the ui settings for this specific button exactly. The default buttons are for Sense UI and XDAndroid. Their respective folder names (in the settings tab) are "Sense" and "Android", therefor I have "_AutoStart_Sense" and "_AutoStart_Android" folders on the root of my phone. In the "_AutoStart_Common" folder you have all the shortcuts which have to start no matter which profile is selected.
Tipp:
I have overclocked my device continously (stable) using this method (with this App) and with SmartBoot I can easily select between OC and non-OC configurations.
For your convenience this Windows Mobile® freeware app supports AppToDate, an easy to use application update program. You can obtain it freely from here.
Please download from Post #2.
Thanks to eboelzner for his great Sense SDK!

Download SmartBoot only here please. (Please no mirrors or similar!)
Please feel free to leave a comment or bugs found.
PS: I will not provide any localization support. Just english language.
If you want I can create a "Light" Version without sounds and stuff, just mention it.
Also if there is demand for it I could create a step-by-step guide.

You currently have two options for a safe mode:
1. Tap "Do nothing" at the initial screen (will exit immediatly -> no boot programs)
2. go to settings and enable "Confirmation", then click the button of your desired boot environment (and you can decide on each short cut -> safe mode).
@All: Thanks for your kind feedback! You are welcome!
PS: If you choose option 2 from above and tap no for at least one shortcut, you will get an "Ooops! Something went wrong!" message at the end.
You can ignore this, as it simply means not all shortcuts got executed.
Where is this app made? Itsn't really clear to me

OK, that's clear.
Next point: you have written that you support only english, no problem.
But Fehler in the popup's is german . Please fix it. And also upload an XML file please.
Also the \_AutoStart_ folders are not created automaticly. Is this the way how should be?
Have we to do this on our own, or is this a litlle bug we have found ?
BTW:
i have allways installed the right .NET version from MS.
EDIT 1:
you say on your private website that the folder names are case sensitive.
Then it must be: _AutoStart_Backup
In your screenshot: _Autostart_Backup
Sorry to say that the app is NOT working on my phone at this moment.
And i'am not alone. There are more people with problems. Please fix it.
At least sense gives problems on restart the phone.

your program error probably comes from a different Startup folder or restricted access to it.
I can't reproduce this error, but I guessed and put an additional entry into the registry ("HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\SmartBoot\Autostart_Folder").
If your folder is not "\Windows\AutoStart\" you can enter another path there.
I also added a reg key to customize the initial sound file ("HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\SmartBoot\Sound_Load").
Please download the updated version.
Further you don't have to softreset in order to try or set things up, just go to your start menu and use the shortcut.
Finally I hope this helps you, please report your results here.

Hi AndiCP,
i think you have forgotten the xml file. I mean: \Application Data\SmartBoot\Configuration.xml
I have made a empty file. Then the message is:
OK, that's clear.
Next point: you have written that you support only english, no problem.
But Fehler in the popup's is german . Please fix it. And also upload an XML file please.
Also the \_AutoStart_ folders are not created automaticly. Is this the way how should be?
Have we to do this on our own, or is this a litlle bug we have found ?
BTW:
i have allways installed the right .NET version from MS.
EDIT 1:
you say on your private website that the folder names are case sensitive.
Then it must be: _AutoStart_Backup
In your screenshot: _Autostart_Backup
Sorry to say that the app is NOT working on my phone at this moment.
And i'am not alone. There are more people with problems. Please fix it.
At least sense gives problems on restart the phone.
I had to de-install the good idea app. Also some strange problems
on de-installtion. It was not possible. Only with many know how
i was able to de-install it.

Hello mike2nl,
first of all "Fehler" means "Error".
Second, "Configuration.xml" not found comes from the SmartBoot Directory not being created properly. (Bug: Updated version 1.01 fixes this, then you will also have all the other folders created automatically on first launch).
Third, "AutoStart" is correct whereas in the screen shot you saw before was a left-over of an earlier version, which doesn't matter, because if it wouldn't be found it will be created during backup process anyway.
Last but not least, I can say nothing about "strange problems".
Thanks for your feedback!
Please download the updated version 1.01 or just run AppToDate
Hi AndiCP,
thanks for your fast reaction. I will test it again now. Downloaded and then install it. Will report later here....
EDIT 1:
after installing the app and two times a soft reset the app blocks sense more then once. Strange...
I had to de-install the little app. This was an adventure again. All known ways are not working.
Only massive working in the windows folder and registry cleaning has helped out of that issue.
On which system you have developed thius app? If there something special done for the SonyEricson?
EDIT 2:
after re-install the application i had denite the folder move for the autostart things. Strange, because
then the app will workig. If i have selected Sense UI i get an error message:
Ooops, something went wrong
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Is this normal? Why you say it is something went wrong? But so far so good. Will test further now.
EDIT 3 (info only):
i have changed the autostart folder in the cab from \Windows\Auto Start to \Windows\Opstarten (dutch version)
EDIT 4 (question):
Have we to copy the apps/shortcuts for the \_AutoStart_xxx\ folders on uor own?
- if the answer yes, no problem (i think thats the way for now)
- if the answer no, then is something wrong
Possible you can think about that issue for a future version of your helpfull app.
Further i think you must add the descirption from your private website here to the first post:
The Pattern is always "\_AutoStart_" & selected Foldername. You can change the folder names in the UI settings tab. The folder "_AutoStart_Backup" is created by the program if you back up your current folder. All other "_AutoStart_" & X folders are created initially, but you want to choose which startup links are in there (folder names are case sensitive!). Just ensure the "X" matches your folder name in the ui settings for this specific button exactly. The default buttons are for Sense UI and XDAndroid. Their respective folder names (in the settings tab) are "Sense" and "Android", therefor I have "_AutoStart_Sense" and "_AutoStart_Android" folders on the root of my phone. In the "_AutoStart_Common" folder you have all the shortcuts which have to start no matter which profile is selected.

Thank you for updating application.
Indeed, my Startup folder has another name. I changed the path in the registry, and now everything works.

to Edit 1: I can't reproduce and never had something like that, sounds like you have problems in your rom anyway as you are the only one reporting this.
Info: Its a simple and standard setup cab (auto generated). Nothing special or changed, it only copies the files. It works the same way on every windows mobile version.
to Edits 2&3: as I said, please check your Autostart folder and change it accordingly.
to Edit 4: Yes. I won't ever include a filemanager!
Hi AndiCP,
i have downloaded the last version yesterday. Installed it and it is running.
At now withour any issue. I think the changings are the solution. But with
un-installation i have my issues. Also when sense is off. But that is not
really a big issue, yet. I will test this again after the next hard reset.
I think this comes with the next CHT test. We, the team, are really haevy busy .
So far, excellent app, that helps me to organize my startup issues on all
CHT (e, s, ...) issues. Thanks for that. That brings us a good effort.
Will report this to co0kie (CHT) and Dark Ninja (GTX).
BTW:
possible you can tell me (PM) where you get or has made the sound files.
I will change something for my needs
SOLVED: HOW TO GET JAXBOT's WP7 LOCKSCREEN TO INITIALIZE JUST BY PRESSING THE POWER BUTTON!!!!
GO BELOW FOR CAB FILE
CREDIT:
A_C for S2U2
Jaxbot for Wp7 Lockscreen
vijay555 for VJBrisk
STEP 1. download and install the program mentioned in POST#7 (VJBRISK) (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=477519) to your device memory
also download the updated .exe file on the programs thread
Step2. once you have installed the program on your phone take the updated exe file and replace it with the installed one ( program files\vijay555\VJBrisk.exe )
Step3. Make Sure You Have Both S2U2 and WP7 Lockscreen Installed..
Step4. Take the .exe From the "Program Files\ wp7 Lock Screen" folder and rename it to "s2u2EXE.exe" and move it to the "program files\vijay555" folder
Step5. Take The Vjbrisk.exe and rename it to "s2u2.exe"
Step5 1/2. Launch the S2u2 settings program and make sure you enable the lock upon wakeup under general settings and then save
Step6. Now MAKE SURE YOU CLOSE S2U2 !!! do this by clicking the iLock2.exe and you will see a message saying "iLock2 and s2u2 closing..."
Step6. Funpart- Delete everything in the (program Files\S2U2 ) folderexcept these files:
-iLock2.exe
-iLock2.log
-s2u2.log
Step7. Move both of the newly renamed files in the( program files\vijay555 ) folder that we renamed "s2u2.exe" and "s2u2EXE.exe" in to the (program Files\S2U2 ) folder
Step8. press your power button right after copying... it shouldn't work
Step9. press the iLock2.exe program.... it should work now!!!
To Change Wallpaper... Select an image to use and rename it "lockscreen_image.png" and place it in the root folder
couple of notes....
1. you shouldnt have to add .exe when renaming programs
2. When you press the power button you cant immediatly do it again and expect the wp7 lockscreen to be there ... it is a slow program takes about 2 seconds to load so when you turn of your screen it will be about 8 seconds for it to fully initiate
[UPDATE 12/16/10]
Made a Cab!!!!
install to device memory
for the cab you do not need any pre-requisites of programs the little parts of programs needed to make this work are included in the install
program can be uninstalled.. is called intui-tech intui-lock
hmmmmm... it seems there is a sort of apps, which catch power button
in order to display their own menu (shutdown-restart-etc).
Probably some of these ones can launch smth.?
at least you can dig into this direction...
i think that quickshutdown can do this... especially intercepting the power button.

i appreciate your suggeastions but what i am really looking for is so that when i press the power button the screen goes off and wp7 lockscreen.exe go at the same time without extra clicking process...
You can probably do it with SK Schema.

Try this. If it was my setup, I would replace the s2u2.exe or whatever it is called with the lock program I was looking for. There is probably a lock.exe of some sort in the windows folder. If you follow the instructions for this program, it will replace the lock program with your specified program automatically whenever it is looking to launch the lock program.
I do this with my calendar and clock and it works like a charm. Hope this helps!
Oh, and give props to vijay555. This really is a brilliant little program.

Quickshutdown has an option to launch an application when activated, without extra tapping. You just have to configure what application to launch and how the behaviour is. So when you push the power button Quickshutdown is launched and the the selected application is launched too.

i will add a step by step for the cab however
i dewcided to put just an update addition because im not sure if the developers of these three programs are okay with the cab i created...
i actually had to rename it like a new program because i equally used three different ones so im waiting to hear backfrom them
my cab pretty much does what the step by step says to do iam gonna leave the original step by step there incase they want me to remove the cab
the cab instructions will go in the update section
so does the cab install too the 3 programs? install the cab and bingo! everything is installed and ready to go?

Very nice but, I have a few questions/problems...
1. Is it possable to adjust the font size ? On my Vzw Touch Pro 2 (WVGA) only Dec is shown in December, as the font is very large (maybe a lacking font for this ?)
2. Is there a way to get better performance from it ? Sometimes when I hit the power button (to wake it) it will not even show the lock screen, then it comes down a few seconds after.
3. When sliding up, I have to make sure my finger goes all the way from the bottom to the top, if I start from a little from the bottom, I have to attempt it again, sometimes this will take 2-3 times before I can open it, Can this be ajusted ???
4. When you change the image, is this the root of the device or the folder created by this installer (Program files\Intui-Lock) ?
Jaxbot said he did not include a font (Segoe WP) causing the text off the screen problem.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=7920340&postcount=22
I found the font on XDA with some others, maybe inclue it in your CAB for everyone ?
