Are there any 'settings' for this plugin, thro registry changes? I'd like to:
- Have it revert to home tab after launching an app/speeddial
- Take up less screen estate with no operator name nor date at top
- Most importantly, only update the weather once per day rather than every time I click the weather tab
- Have the alert icons change to colour when there is a missed SMS/etc (I am aware of kaizers colourful version - not the same issue tho)
I am using JUVS's improved version (thanks a stack dude! Made this plugin useful with the new tabs).

Tap weather tab, then city name. 'Select City' screen will show up. Then tap Menu -> Weather options, and there uncheck 'Download weather data automatically'. Job done.
thanks eva_d - didn't realise I'd get a manual-update button
Is it possible to change the color of the font on the top of the plugin, where the name of the operator is?
Is it possible to read the extensive thread devoted to using and configuring the HTC Home plugin?
Is it possible to attach a link to said extensive thread?

OK, excuse me if somethng has been covered before.
After installing the new version of the HTC Home plug from the kaiser I was looking at the image files installed and noticed that in addition to the tabs we've got there are images for what looks to be a music tab (attached)
Is there a way to configure what tabs you've got showing?
I presume the music tab would show something like the mini audio manager UI that you get in TouchFlo.
Now, I know that you can edit the registry to enable you to move the plugin up and down on the today screen but being able to display the music tab would be cool.
Hi
I am running the Touch Rom on my Orbit, i really like HTC Home but was wondering if there was a way to change it so that when you select open Music Player on HTC Home, it opens Windows Media Player instead of the Audio Manager? you can already do this on the Touch cube but can not find a way to do this for HTC Home.
Is there an application or a regestary Edit that can do this?

Hi,
I don't have home customizer installed now. But as I remember you have to go to the HTC Options menu from the main menu, and you will see a menu called "Change default music player" or something similiar.

Try this. Gives you a today plugin for wireless and bluetooth

The only thing I would like different is if it didn't open up the comm. Manager to actually switch it, if it made the change right from the home screen it would be perfect, anyone know of something like that???I found something called cicleBT that work well however its not on the Today screen home page, I have the HTC home plugin and can put it in the app launcher and its cool.

Just want to see if there was a way of making this so that it was a plugin on the today home screen say just under the HTC home plugin aligned to the left side and have my calendar show up to the right of it??? A nice little icon there that is large enough to use my finger to push???
Anyone know how to do a mod like this??
Thank you I wish I knew how to do it, any help would be appreciate.

are you lookin for freeware? b/c if NOT then spb phone suite has today screen components, 1 of which is like a button that displays a sub menu allowing you to turn phone, bluetooth, and wi-fi on/off and also flight mode. you can even tap and hold on each to access more options (ex: bluetooth modes, vibrate etc.) i dont want to sound like i'm selling this to you, but it's a great app. maybe the 1 app i install over every rom.
more info here

search for a program called pockettoolman its freeware.

HELP needed any good coders...............
I have found a quick launcher on the web with 5 icons to launch apps. Is there any coders out there that can manipulate this for me to 3 icons, bluetooth toggle on/off, wifi toggle on/off, and phone toggle on/off, justified to the left side of the today screen, again I am using an att 8525 with the att rom. Any help would be appreciated. thank you all in advance.

the plugin you want CommCEntric v1.11 (hell I want it if someone can make it into a today plugin for pocket pc) is an xml file. unfortunately you need some type of a homescreen to view it. I dislike the homescreen concept because they take up so much space, but I love the look of comcentric)
hopefully anyone technically inclined can make it into a cab that will make it viewable on a pocket pc screen (not just smartphone)
CommCEntric v1.11, release date 2007/06/14
http://web.gemini.dynalias.net/default.asp?c=index_ek_cc
A home-screen plugin for the Smartphone to instantly turn on and off the two main communication sections of a device, bluetooth and wireless, without having to go into the settings or even bother with the slow Comm Manager.
Displays a bluetooth icon and (if available) wireless icon which, upon pressure, display a context menu to quickly control their status.

Has anyone figured out a way to make the commcentric app work for pocketpc??? Would love just to have the Bluetooth icon on home screen and be able to toggle just bluetooth on/off....any help here would be appreciate, basically bluetooth icon on the left with my calendar plugin showing up next to it on the right...
Cheers!
The easiest way to do this is to use cLaunch (http://pachome1.pacific.net.sg/~welic/claunch.html) which allows you put to icons onto your today screen. It's really configurable so you can just have a couple of icons, or your can have multliple tabs with many icons on. You need to play about with it to get it working how you want, but it'll do what you're looking for.
For the Bluetooth icon, here's a useful utility that toggles Bluetooth on and off without opening CommMgr. Copy it into Program Files on your phone and cLaunch should be able to see it so that you can have the bluetooth icon on your today screen.
An even simpler method is to stick BTSwitch in your Program Files and then map one of your soft buttons to it... No need to take up any screen real estate with pretty icons!!

HELP me
Where exactly do I navigate to to put the BTSwitch so I can map it to a button already on my phone, what a brilliant idea! Thanks, I just don't know what to do with it. I have placed it in several locations and went to map the button but can't find the file....I am dumb or am I missing soemthing.
Thanks and Cheers!

Sorry, should have been more specific!
Put the BTSwitch.exe file into Windows/Start Menu/Programs. You can then use the standard Settings > Buttons method to map one of the hardware buttons to the BTSwitch programme.
You can also map one of the soft buttons at the bottom of the screen, but will need a separate utility to do that... (eg Schap's Advanced Config : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=317070)
Also, have a look at these threads for other ways of changing your soft keys:

Hi,
I had the same question, and someone did answer what you and I where looking for.
It was answered by: slavik @ www.pocketpcfreak.com
The software is called: HTC BT Quicklink
His link was: http://rapidshare.com/files/42718525/HTC_BT_Quicklink.cab
There is no manual, but play with it and you will figure it out...
Good luck.
This is an app that will add and update, in real time, a new panel on your sliding panels theme called "Weather".
It will install two shortcuts in your Start Menu. A "Weather Update" shortcut, which you can use to update manually, as well as a "Weather Options" shortcut.
Steps to take to make this work:
1) Install one of the cabs below. Pick the "Slim" version if you want thinner panels, like in the screenshots. Pick the Slim Background option to also get a background in the panel according to the current weather condition.
2) It should ask to reboot ! (turn phone off and on.. etc). If it doesn't... reboot manually!
3) Go to your Start Menu and find "Weather Options". Set your Zip / Location Code to your zip code if you're in the US or a "location code" if you're anywhere else. More info on finding your specific code is here http://developer.yahoo.com/weather/#req . Set the "Fahrenheit / Celsius" option to either "F" or "C" (without the quotes!). Specify how often you would like to autoupdate the weather information in minutes in option 3. Specify whether you would like the application to attempt to connect your default GPRS connection first, before updating. Finally you can turnoff the autoupdate feature with the last option (7).
4) Now it might be a good idea to go to Start and find "Update Weather" and run it.
5) The cab should set your homescreen to "Sliding Panel Top Bar + Weather!" automatically. If it doesn't, you need to do it manually to see the weather plugin. If you top icons disappear then you might have to use the regular "Sliding Panel + Weather!" theme.
If you want your system font to look like the one in the thumbnails (calibri), download the .cab attached, install and reboot.
Please use the attached "unlock.cab" to unlock your device if you're getting permission errors trying to install my weather cabs. Thanks.
For now, I just released the SLIM version. Haven't had the time to create the cpr file for the regular version yet, but you'll have it tomorrow.
Pick one of the cabs below to install different icons, as seen in the pictures. Install the icon cabs, AFTER you install the main weather cab.
For people that still don't know how to manually update: you go to your start meny and find "Weather Update" and run it. Clicking the middle button on the keyboard, while having the weather slide activated will NOT do anything!
This will most likely enable ALL the panels installed on your phone, so use this utility to get rid of the ones you don't want displayed.

Looks good, can't wait to put it on my phone with the regualar (fat) interface. Thanks for spending your time working into the wee hours of the morning to get this up and running.
this project is interesting and I am following it since begin but why I have toshow on my home the actual weather and actual temeperature? I guess is better to put 3 small weather icons in the slide showing the weather in the next days... no? Or first icon for the actual day forecast and then the following days...
this may sound like a silly question but will this take away any of my current panels????
not to sound like a unappreciating ass, (your doing amazing work), but i agree with Iannik next thing you work on should be a forcast type thing, like a fizz weather type thing with 5 days or something like that.
ok, so this is a very noob question, but i have to be running 6.1 to use this homescreen, correct? i installed it before on my 6.0 dash, and it did nothing...
OrganicM,
Do you still have the latest (working) version using CWelcomeCenter? While working on my new CHome Configurator utility, I might figure out a way to update the plugin without reloading the whole homescreen. If it does work, you will be able to add forecast data into multiple panel and have the manual update process directly from the panel.

LCD Font
Org, do you plan on releasing ver. 1.8 with an LCD system font?
Yes. All that is coming today. I didnd't have time to do all the regular versions last night, so I decided to at least release the slim version for you guys to try. I will get the "Fat" version out today with LCD and not, as well as a SLIM LCD version! Maybe even the IPhone layout if I'm happy with it.... hehe
p.s. I'm also working on a standalone CWelcomeCenter version based on the latest 1.8 code (which I've cleaned up a lot). We will also have forecast data with the current testui version, plus a welcomecenter panel underneath with forecast for a few days!

Hi folks,
I'm looking for an programm launcher like the programs tab in TF3D, but I'd like to have multiple pages, as the 24 places in the tab are way to few.
Else I want to assign it to an hardware key, so I need an application, that is not integrated in TF3D.
Does anyone know a good app for this purpose ?
I guess someone already made something like that, but google and the forum search didn't bring it up.
Sounds like a job for Wisbar Advanced Desktop, I have 8 tabs on the main screen, 20 more fading in with one finger gesture, or configure a mainscreen tab to directly open a launcher page with 20 tabs per page, where tabs can also be a Inbox, URL or shortcut to opening a program with a given file. Then switch between unlimited launcher pages with one finger gesture per page.
^^ can you please tell me what part of wishbar advance i have to activate to make my screen look like that??
Look at MortScript and Mort Buttons You can add the buttons to start menu, Today screen or to the TF3D Programs page. each button has a full page or even multi-pages you can add apps, commands or scripts to. Really handy!

Then you need to install Sergej's free Blackberry Theme to the themes folder of WAD, and activate it as your default portrait mode theme.

that looks really nice ... but how does is look in landscape mode? does it support landscape? if yes, i'll give it a try
Dont use landscape, but the program differentiates between those two modes, so you could just re-arrange the dock and tabs to fit your landscape preferences. For me the key feature was to be able to show unlimited appointments on my main screen.
already tried yota center?
Me I use UltimateLaunch that I looove with Yota

how to set the WAD as today screen? by disable the TF3D only?
last time i did try WAD, but, i didn't set it as today screen, i need to launch it as other program to get WAD work.
so, everytime you soft reset or wake up your HD, you will see WAD in your today screen?
Just disabled TF3D, started WAD installation, and WAD came up as today screen automatically. Yes, WAD is full today screen, but you can choose if you want to keep the Start and taskbar on the top of the screen, or have it disappear. Most standard Today plugins work from inside the WAD today screen, too.

thanks a lot Lucas, i will try.
Thanks for the ideas.
I'm already using Yota Center and its a nice program.
The only thing is that I'd like to have more pages, cause 24 places is too few.
I'll try Mort Buttons, looks interesting though.

Thanks just one more question. When launching the Music player or Photo Viewer etc, are they the normal HTC ones or are they customized now?
Are they still easy to use?
Also does all your programs work normally? And if you don't like the WAD, you can easily delete it?

No, they will not be the HTC apps embedded in TF3D. You will set up each icon to open up your own apps. I haven't heard of anyone being able to use the HTC player or album yet as stand alone apps.
Yes they are very easy to use!
WAD will not affect the way your programs run. It is simply a launcher program (one of the best that I've seen yet).
Yes, you can easily uninstall WAD by going to remove programs and uninstalling it from there...although I have a feeling you won't want to after you get the feel for what it can do to your today screen!
Thanks that was a great explanation
just one more question for example do you mean it won't have a built mp3 player or something like that but you have to download a 3rd party one and assign it?
EDIT: I just bought it and installed the Blueberry theme but doesn't show up properly, i wonder why. I'm missing the clock, the calender and whenever i press the box on the right side, a empty grey box opens.. weird.
EDIT: Fixed it up by selecting Wishbar Desktop rather than HD BlueBerry, weird. some parts are still German even after applying eng buttons.

You can set it up to use Windows Media player if you want to, otherwise a third party app is what you will need. CorePlayer or PocketPlayer are a couple to check out.
I haven't installed the Blackberry theme for WAD yet but I do no if you don't have the icons installed in the correct places the theme will not show properly. I ran into this same problem when installing Mallmans Vista theme. As soon as I went back and followed his instructions perfectly, the theme was correctly displayed.
I'm not familiar with setting up different languages so I'm afraid I won't be of any help to you there. You may check out the Lakeridge WAD forum for that.
Here is how I have my WAD looking right now, a tweaked version of Mallmans Vista theme!
