Hi all,
I've got the HTC Home Plugin up and running now, and would like to make 1 change if possible...
Can the favorite-contacts tab be changed to use photo's instead of just the names?
to clarify: I'd like the tab to look something like this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I don't understand your question. HTC Home Plugin's Favorite tab should work the same way as you described. Tapping an empty box should pop up Contacts app from where you can choose whom to display among Favorites.
So, the problem can be
1. You chose persons from Contacts who has no photo attached. In this case the plugin can show the name only.
2. Your installed Home Plugin is buggy - if so, try another one; there are a lot avaible in the forum.
Good luck!
Yes you can´t specify the photo in HTC Home - you have to do this via pocket outlook contacts. than htc home should use the photos instead of the name
You're correct! Very sorry to have posted this, I thought I saved a photo with a certain contact, but apparently that went wrong. I assigned the photo to the contact again, and now it shows the photo!

All,
I posted this on another thread but I got no response so I thought I'd give a shot here...
I'm pretty far along with a program I'm developing for release on this board (DnP - Dock-n-Play) that plays an animated today screen with TF3D style Clock, Weather Icon, tasks and notifications while docked and on power -- the normal state for my phone while I'm at work is to have it craddled (docked) next to my monitor. When undocked the program auto-terminates -- although a daemon continues to run in background to relaunch should you re-dock.
I want to have an option to display the current weather as an icon similar to the good work A_C does with his fantastic S2U2 aaplication... I have sample code for pulling weather from a number of sources so that is not the issue... what I need is how to find (in the registry I'm assuming) of what the currently displayed weather location is in TouchFlow3d.
If anyone knows the key to getting to this information can you please respond. -Thx

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
When I was changing my weatherdatabase I found keys in the registry.
HKCU/Software/HTC/Manila; there is a key Weather.Current.City.

Thanks! That was what I was looking for
I've been looking for something like this for long time, this app lets you search pictures for contacts by name from facebook without registering, works great but this is trial which can add only 5 pictures...
maybe some dev's from xda can make something like this.

Description from official site:
VT Contact Picture finds and allows adding a Picture to Contact from Facebook.
It extends Contact menu by adding new menu item "Add Picture from Facebook".
Picture is searched in Facebook Name fields.
You can adjust search criteria to match the name that could be found for this person.
While downloading pictures, you can browse them, view full-screen preview, and choose to add to your contact.
VT Contact Picture uses your mobile internet connection, so normal internet carrier charges apply.
It is fun to set photos for all your existing contacts without having to take photos – just find them on-line.
This is an easy and fast way to get a persons picture attached to your Contact.

Seriously the app is $4... If you like it just buy it. Developers need to earn a living too man...
You remind of this YouTube video...

I have an unlocked non branded HTC Desire and today I was messing around with root access, but in the end decided to go back to the stock ROM.
Now I can't download the additional HTC widgets (notes), it says "Unable to download widgets. Tap to try again.". I can't resolve this problem.
SOLVED
Figured it out. I had a custom locale setting, set via morelocale 2, as soon as I changed it to a locale that came preinstalled on the phone, I could again see the widgets.
I have the same problem. When I wan't to add a widget and select get more htc widgets it says unable to download widgets.tap to try again. Can you explain how exactly did you make it work?
Thank you

same here , what have you done
Settings>Language & keyboard>Select language and than select something from the list. Works fine after that.
I had the same problem and MaTiCeK-'s post pointed me in the right direction. It also fixed my 'Current location' problem. Whatever I tried, for the last 3-4 weeks it wouldn't tell me the city name. Changing the language to one of the preinstalled ones fixed it
Thanks
I didnt find similar thread through search so im asking it here in new thread.
So i have installed so many apps that the metroui menu forces me to use that ugly (my opinion) alphabet categorization. Is there a way to disable this from registry or someway? Im using HTC 7 Trophy running DFT rom and fully unlocked.

Sorry for bad english and i hope that this can be disabled
Thanks.
just use Registry Editor.
follow: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Start.
change value of "GroupingThreshold" to anothers number greater than yours
example: 150 or 200.... (if your apps over this number, WP7 show off new menu categorize )
. Then restart your phone. done
Thanks dude!
I have HTC Titan with windows phone 7.5. can I remove the alphabet categorization.
after 150-200 apps you want it back thats for sure, because the scrolling is long
can we like remove this option completely by adding a huge number in the registry?
The main idea is to call a fake contact which triggers the previously configurated actions.
Steps to configure it:
1- Create the contact
2- Add it to favorites from Huawei Health
3- Create the action
(I used MacroDroid, in this case the Trigger is Dialing the phone number and the action is Plugin Locale / Tasker> Yeelight
4- I am still watching how to automatically hang up the call
View the results: Macro / Watch

We will have up to 10 contacts (10 actions, in principle) assigned to invented numbers.
For those who have enough smart devices at home, this is surely good news. You spend less time, you don't have to go and get the phone, and also you feel that your GT 2 is a little less limited.
Let's hope Huawei integrates a keyboard, note manager (text and voice), besides the ability to answer messages or interact with notifications.
In the meantime, I think this method can play a good role.
