Owner's Info on WM5

[Pawlisko]

Is it a way to disable edit of Owner's Info with current data - maybe registy entry....

[shogunmark]

even if you disable it when you do a hard reset you will be able to edit it again

[Pawlisko]

shogunmark - I know about it.

I need it, because from time to time I accidently hit owner info and info is changed. I would like to limit this posibility.

After hard reset still I need to fill out info.

[shogunmark]

are you talking about accidentally hitting it on the today screen?

[Pawlisko]

Yes,

Sometimes when I have phone in side case is accidentally hits on user info, and sometimes changes inputed data

You can make the item on the today screen non-selectable

In the registry

goto HKLM\software\microsoft\today\items\

then goto owner info and give 'selectability' a value of 0

Close down via power button and startup - owner info should not be selectable i.e. highlightable on the today screen.

meschle - your's solution is half what i am looking.

What I am exactly looking is selectability=1 and when you enter everything would be non-changable. Like all fields label not text boxes. I do not know how to descibe it diffrently.

I dont think that is possible the info is in HKCU\controlpanel\owner and there are no parameters to make it non-changable.
You could have a static xml plugin but the result is essentially the same as option 1.

I did it in my hermes without success. I can still select it and change the info.

Is there anything that I've missed? Thanks.

You are right that tweak is only to make it non-selectable via d-pad not the stylus - the only way then is to have a plugin that allows text input and is totally non-selectable e.g. a xml plugin - there are a number around.

You can try rlToday

edit the XML file to display whatevr information you want. I don't think it is selectable.

I've tried the Owner Info X plugin vijay cited.

It had a problem appearing consistently--the plugin's today slot would, at times, have nothing in it.

Dunno if the problem was fixed in a newer version of the plugin, though.

Thanks Vijay, worked as I wanted.

Thanks again ;)
