I have an HTC Vox and I want to know if there is a way to organize/arrange the programs in my start menu. Any ideas?

I'm running WM6 on my Blackjack and it doesn't look like it...

To change the order of your start menu:

With a registry editor go to:

HKCU\Software\Microsoft\shell\startmenu and you can then arrange the order to whatever you like. Tweaks2k2.net for smartphone and jeyo personalizer from jeyo.com also have built-in tweaks that do the same thing for you and might be easier for you. If you do it yourself, I'd recommend using a desktop registry editor (e.g. Mobile Registry Editor) vs. one on the device for something like this as it is just easier than doing all this on the device.

If you like, you can also create folders and can move shortcuts into them. I have mine set-up so that my start menu is just one page. Note that folders will always show up at the end of the list of any program items that are listed on the start menu.

You might also consider using a program like Right Menu where you can set-up your most used apps to be selected from the right soft key.

I always app unlock my device first thing and you probably need to do so to make the start menu changes I mentioned. I use SurrealNetworksAppUnlocker.
