My Fixes:
FIX 1
Description: HTC Home FIX!
Error Description: When using ANY HTC Home Plugin, i found the following graphical error:
ill use the home tab as my example, when it is not selected, it is dull and transparent, and when you select it it gets a grey box around it and the icon image becomes lighter, this happens with all icons appart from the music note and the contacts tab
FIX:
i have fixed the images so that when they are selected they react the same as the others.
TO USE:
Extract then copy the Original Icons Fixi have attached into the following folder replacing the ones in there:
HTC HOME Customise\HTC Home Customizer v07\FILES\icons\Original
Then apply the "Original" Icon Set.
FIX 2
Extract then copy the Transparent selected file to:
HTC Home Customizer v07\FILES\bg\Original Semi-Transparent
And it will make the Grey selection Box that appears around the selected tab Transparent!
My Packages/Upgrades:
1) Original Icons 3D Style
To Have The 6 Tab Icons In 3D Download Original 3D Icons inside the zip you will find 2 folders "Original" & "Original 3D"
The "Original 3D" folder has the new icons in it, copy these icons to:
HTC Home Customizer v07\FILES\icons\Original
Then select the "Original" icons from the Software.
If you decide to go back to the normal (non 3D) "Original" Icons, copy all of the files in the "Original" folder from "Original 3D Icons.zip" and copy them to the directory above, then select the "Original" icons from the Software.

I didnt realize! Mainly because i contacted the OP if the thread in the Titan Forum and he told me that it was his software and he was devoloping it.
I offered to have a play with some of the griphics and he asked that if I did anything could i post it on his thread so he could add it to his package.
Firstly i was looking for things that needed improvement and i released these 2 fixes, posted them in the Original thread and here so everyone could benefit
Thanks bennec83. Just a quick question. Does this work with the HTC Home 3 tabs version? I rather like the 3 tabs version as it is more finger friendly.
thanks for the effort

In theory (and we all know how accurate theory is) it should work with the 3-tab except for the tab order setting, as long as the version you are running installs to either \Windows or \HTCHome.
Another option would be to install the 6-tab version, run the customizer, and in the tab order setting you can select how many tabs and what order you want them in (which means you can display only 3 if you would like, and in any order you choose).

I tryed that and it didnt work, i have the 6 button kaiser home plugin, and it installs to \HTCHome, i used the customiser to change the order if the tabs and NOTHING happened.
I have been so bogged down with other stuff i didnt get a chance to message you!
Any clues?
thanks
You'll need a 6-tab cab that supports the tab order setting. In my thread, toward the bottom are RapidShare links for cabs that fully support all settings for the customizer for WM5 and WM6, including tab order.

I am having the custom weather database "Unable to retrieve weather" problem. I read the thread in the Titan forum, but could not resolve it and the linked N2A thread. I am using the cab file from that thread, not the Pocket Hosts method.
I am in the US, so I run the customizer (which completely rocks btw) and enter my city, zip code and USA for country. I get the cannot connect error. I read the post about switching to alternate connection, navigating to htc.accuweather.com, etc. but I do not actually know wtf is meant by switching to alternate connection? You mean wifi v. gsm connection??? I do get the error page "You have reached an inconfigured webpage..." when I navigate to htc.accuweather.com on any connection. (My city is on accuweather's US site, but not on the international site. That is, after all, the point of this customization, right?)
Any help appreiated - thx.

I am pretty new to the Dash so I need some more help (already given a lot of help, thanks) I am wondering how to install and where to find new Home Screen's and how to change the background colour in the start menu?
Thank you for your time and when you help me please remember I am new so please use new person terms haha.

Alrighty... First of all, which ROM are you using?
Well, no matter which ROM you use--you can access your homescreen options this way: Start -> Settings -> Home Screen -> scroll down to Background Image. When you get here, just choose which image you'd like to be the background/wallpaper. (before making these steps, you can search Google or Yahoo! images for whatever wallpaper you'd like) Once you've saved an image (preferrably .jpeg), use ActiveSync to place the file on your device. Click Explore button -> Windows Mobile Device -> Application Data -> Home (this is where you store downloaded homescreen images).
i am using kavana rickwyatt v20 thank you for such quick replys but i dont mean the background pictures but like new homescreens as in new paneling and everything. i should have said that in my first post sorry.
The Home screen is controlled with XML files which lets you specify the position of certain panels, etc. Here is a tutorial on modifying the file:
http://pocketnow.com/index.php?a=portal_detail&t=reviews&id=916
If you have any specifics questions about that let me know.
thank's a lot and I am going to read through that tutorial when I get some free time for sure.
I have another question but I don't want to open a new thread so I will ask it here. Are there any program's that have city map's? I need some map's of my city on my phone (I am a delivery driver).?

If I'm not mistaken, Windows Live has mapping and directions within it. It should already be a part of your Windows Mobile 6.1. Just look in the programs under the 'Start' menu.
I you dont want all the baggage of Windows Live, which permanently gloms all over your phone. just install "Windows Live Search". I think it is a better, leaner choice unless you already use Live Spaces and/or Hotmail.
I was wondering if you guy's knew of DLable maps because I don't want to rack up my data charges on the road?
I have the Kavana 6.1 rom... A link to open up Windows Live is built into the panels... Isn't there another option for that panel? I'm new to this, so bear with me please...

Look at a sticky named CHome configurator
That is a program that you can use to customize the panel.
Thanks, I'm working with that as well... I just remember when I was setting up my phone that there were two ways to set up the Windows Live panel. I don't see the option in the Configurator however.
Oh, and I'm still trying to figure out what app you all use/recommend for editing .cpr files. Any help is appreciated..

Notepad.
Drag the file to your computers desktop, edit it by opening it with Notepad.
Drag it back to your phones \Windows folder and reboot.
Ok, you beat me to it... thanks!
Hello All,
I think this is the right forum for my question. I'm using PocketInformant 8 and wanted to know if there is a way to change the "All People" soft button under the People tab to open PI8 instead of the default plain contacts program. I swore I saw a thread about this previously, but can not find it (my have dreamed the whole thing )
Appreciate the help!!
Use Manila Patcher (SSMaPa).
+1
and please try to use the search menu before opening new threads
You can use SSMaPa. I have my home screen patched with spb clock and Agenda One. Works great
THANK YOU ALL. I do have the latest version of SSMaPa installed and have successfully used it to modify the calendar link on the home screen. But have no clue on how to use SSMaPa to modify the "all people" button. Can anyone of you provide a clue?
Thanks!
I had the same problem trying replace the contact application. According to the author's website, the closest "replaceable program" is the poutlook.exe but I thought this is the email client so I did not want to mess with it. Is'nt contact application contact.exe? I don't see that listed in the link below:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=407777
Yes, some help from those more experienced would be appropriate in this case.
POUTLOOK.EXE is the contact manager integrated in Windows Mobile. THis is the good parameter to modify.
Thanks Wolfman017!!! I changed the POUTLOOK.EXE to PI8Contacts and it worked beautifully!!! That's just too awesome. Thanks.
Eaglesteve, this might be the answer for you as well.

When I first had my HTC I made some appointment for weeks later but they didn't show up on the today screen. But now they do show up because they occur the next day.
So the Today screen will only show appointment when they occur the following day, but does not show in general the upcoming appointments. Is there a way to alters this? I'm used to the WM5 today screen which showed the next upcoming appointments regardless if they would occur the following day.
You can do that using S2U2. You can set to display any appointment, etc.
this is possible. i fond a cab somewhere on the forum (general-development and hacking). Dont remember the post but i have the cab attached.
just install and you'll have more appointments on the today screen.
if reinstall al returns back to normal.
I used that cab before... Just be caution, if you have other tweak install or something like that, it will break your homescreen. Make sure you backup your stuff if u used that cab.

I already have that installed . This is nice when locked.
MM, if that CAB is dangerous I rather won't use it. Thanks for the info. Do other folks have some ideas?

I use that cab. Works fine!
in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=524157&highlight=calendar (somewhere at the end) i descripe the one i'm using.
Right, im using Itjes 13.2 rom. Its fast & basically all i want in a rom.
However, i want/need to have the next 5 appointments on the today screen like on previous roms.
It literally sorts my life out everytime i look at my phone.
Now however, with the newer version of Manilla i cant get more thn 1 appointment showing on the today screen?
I have searched & posted numerous times about this but cant find a solution & saddly i aint got the technical ability to sort it myself.
I have used the Smaberg cab (just removes the appointments completely from today screen), & also replaced the .dll file from another rom i have used - sadly neither work.
So can anyone point me in the right direction to find a solution ?
Or is it simply not possible with this new version of Manilla (2.1 i believe) ?
Thanks in advance
Hutchy007
I've also posted over in HTC Pedia without any success yet
i'm looking for this too and saw your thread over at htcpedia as well. forget about changing reg-keys and advanced config. this is configured somewhere in 1c684cd8_manila.
i'm at a dead end here after comparing the content from v13.2 with the one which gives you more events. next step, if i get to it, is search xda-devs (especially topaz- and rhodium-forums) and the web, if there's a newer file out. do the same, pls?
or someone who figured it out reads this thread and posts the file.
Guess we're goosed caliban2. Over 130 views & no solutions - just gotta hope its fixable on future releases of manilla !

seems that way, at least for now.
problem is htc changed the manila-file... it's only half the size, has different and less lua-scripts in it, that's why the old file doesn't work anymore.
i couldn't figure out so far from where this part of the home-screen is managed in manila 2.1.
needs someone with real coding-skills to do this, but the usual suspects are awefully quit on this.
Check this out, i think thats what u need.

sadly no, that's the file for manila 2.0
the one for manila 2.1 has about 67 kb in size.

Fix for showing multiple appointments on Today screen
I found this when searching - it worked for me.
To set options for displaying appointments on the Today screen
If you have a large number of appointments, you may want to specify the kind of appointments that are displayed on the Today screen.
1. Tap Start > Settings > Personal tab > Today.
2. Tap the Items tab.
3. Select Calendar and tap Options.
4. Do any of the following:
• Select Next appointment to show only the next appointment in your schedule, or Upcoming appointments to show multiple appointments.
• Clear the Display all day events check box if you do not want to display all-day events.
try tf3d tewak tool maybe this could help ya
Come on then peeps.
Someone must have had a dabble at forcing the appointments onto the today screen in the new Manilla.
Again, you will recieve my undying love for this fix. It really makes my phone perfect.
Many thanks,
Hutchy
Is there a cab to get 15 min increments instead of 30 on appointment times? I hate it when I have to work at 8:45 and have to put 8:30 just so I'm not late...
