If you recall on the 'home' tab there are the 3 notification areas that show unread email, unread SMS/MMS, and missed calls...I was wondering if there was a way to change which application opened up with you clicked on those icons? Note, that I am NOT talking about the icons from the 'launcher' tab.

if i had to guess it would be somewhere in the htchome.dll in the windows folder. it's hard-coded somewhere most likely..

this has been asked a lot of times but no one seems to know how, unfortunately

Meh...there's a difference between a 'cracker' and a 'hacker' ;)

(there's also an inside joke behind it, of which you have the priviledge of being on the outside :P )

But still, it's unfortunate that it cannot be changed in a simple manner...has anyone tried renaming the executables that it launches?
