I know this is XDA but I actually sold my HD2 to get a WP7 because I just wanted a fully working phone out of the box. I have zero interested in a CHH even if he did an amazing job on my HD2 and zero interested in cooking. That might change in a year or 2 but for now I'm happy with what I have
WP7 Is a great tool but still containing bugs and problems
one of the most bad things that u will feel ugly in the future is Metro Interface that will need a big changes to overcome the long list of the application you will install
CHH Is an early idea as a try to be a solution for this future problem

OHH GOD!! PLZ> I request you...though I appreciate your hard work...but PLZ>...KEEP AWAY CHT FROM WP7...IT KILLED THE SYSTEM ON X1!!!
PLZ./..
The system is JUST PERFECT...there is NO NO NEED whatsoever for anything..I have specially come to hate CHT cause IT JUST KILLS my system..anyways..Its your choice and I respect it...
Just no. On all levels.
Actually really annoyed by the negative responses.
I think this is an awesome idea. it will help close the gap between win6.5 & WP7. I for one want to try out the WP7 tabs and hub concept. without loosing my TP2 and no one has produced a replacement good enough yet.
Brilliant. looking forward to trying it out. Especially if they are CHT 2.0 widgets that we can use with CHTS.

There is a lot of wasted space with Metro... specifically the rightmost column under the arrow. It would be nice to have a set of quick toggles and/or quick links that the user could choose. It needs to be within the metro design scheme and not a retread of manila (let's get past that people). Here's what I would suggest:
- Wifi toggle
- BT toggle
- Vibrate toggle
- Weather quicklink
- Calendar quicklink
- Quick lock
- Quick soft reset

The average user doesn't care about a quick soft reset or a quick lock for that matter, also the calendar and weather are live tiles... I could see quick settings such as the BT and Wifi there, but that's it...

i didnt like this whole idea in this thread because i hate putting every damn thing on a homescreen - but that tapping idea didnt come to my mind.
but yes, it is a good idea. still i would prefer if there would appear only a few icons or so.

Well, this would be very nice, to get official, but have an option to disable it and that it would shot just when pressed smw on the right. It would annoy me to see stuff like that if I don't need it ))
You have to think about why the space is also there. Think of it as a scroll bar. Yea, I can scroll down by sliding down "on" the tiles themselves but then I risk the chance of actually opening something that I didn't mean to open. That space also allows for a clear space to scroll without running the risk of opening something. If those other items were to the right, then I run the risk of opening something that I didn't mean to open/toggle which could lead to frustration to the end user, especially users who have bigger fingers. So that space isn't wasted as many think it is.
maybe it would be a good way to "slide" this bar in. you do the same move as sliding to the right when going to applist but instead of right you slide to the left and the bar slides in from the right side. so scrolling there would still be usable (i use that too).
and i also "slide" the status bar at top in, tapping for me often ends up opening my first applications -.-

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. Any way of making it so it works as a plugin on the home screen.

Nice! Haven't seen this one before.
can this be changed to be a plugin
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.
Cheers!!
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
more screens here
search for a program called pockettoolman its freeware.
yeah freeware
Definately looking for a freeware to do this, not really wanting to pay for an icon on the today screen. I found this cab but can't get it to work looks like what I want but it don't work
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.
cheers,
attached is the cab for the quick launcher.
I am beating this to death
I am sorry to keep on with this, this is the last CAB that i will upload I really hope someone can help me with building what I want but til then this little plugin will suffice. Please try and help me with what I described above in the other posts. thanks.
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.

align attribute: Required, tells the horizontal position of the icon(s). Can be left, right, center or borders
time attribute: Optional, specifies the format string for the time display. Format string is as per MSDN specification (look at the lpFormat section). If it's omitted, no time is shown.
date attribute: Optional, specifies the format string for the date display. Format string is as per MSDN specification (look at the lpFormat section). If it's omitted, no date is shown.
Optionally, the plugin can also be translated. You just need to add some attributes, each one translating a specific string:
str_bt0: translates "Disable Bluetooth"
str_bt1: translates "Enable Bluetooth"
str_bt1d: translates "Set discoverable"
str_btconf: translates "Configure Bluetooth"

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:

you should also look up a2dptoggle. it also automates turning on a2dp headset from today screen. a buzz kill to get to thru the menus
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.
If you are using a smartphone running on Windows Mobile 6.1, this small utility might be useful for you. It allows you to switch on/off and change the display order of the sliding panels on any CHome homescreens. It could also be used to customize all custom panels based on CWelcomeCenter and Settings plugin.
This is the final version which has all the features that I have planned to do since the beginning. Please try it out and report you find any bugs. Have fun.
PS: Thank rickwyatt for the dialer extracted from his ROM and everyone else who contributed the icons.
Download the ZIP version if you have trouble installing .CAB on your device.
If you are using Ricky ROM v24 with CHome Configurator preinstalled, unzip CHomeConfig_Ricky_ROM_v24.zip to \Windows folder of your device.

I Must Say:
This is really nice, I do have a reg editor, which is really all this is. But it has a great GUI, and unlike the OldSAPFavorites, it actually works like it's supposed to work.
I am really impressed by the author, and heck I might even try to improve on this. Although I don't really see how.
Props to the author, and to everyone who hasn't checked this out, it's definitely worth the time. It takes you to exactly what you want to edit. Updates it perfectly.
Rock on!!!
Aww man... This GREATLY eliminates the headache of having to do this through the registry! It's pretty much the same process--just a more user friendly interface!

Ops! Stupid me. Should try the apps first before commenting.
Anyway how about a module to modify the layout - changing the cpr file's fontsize, text placement and slide size. Make a visual presentation of changes being made.
Currently in order to see changes made to the cpr file, require changes in the settings>homescreen.
Thanks and thanks for such a useful apps.

And how do you propose he accomplish that ? You STILL have to reload the CHome plugin to see your changes. Besides, making a GUI editor for the CPR files could prove to a huge pain in the ass, probably not worth his time

Just responding to his comments. Too bad I'm not a coder. Well, if it can be done without hurting anyones's a$$,well and good. Otherwise....
Only suggestions I could think of for an improvements is perhaps getting rid of red for the disabled ones. Its a non-standard GUI practice. More commonly the disabled would be grey, or struck through, and an icon pair, like perhaps an eye & a circleslash (or similar) would denote the visiblity of the active ones. And maybe some way of not moving them to the bottom if they are enabled-invisible, but letting them stay in place.
Still, rather trifling things, and very nice app, that should be standadrd in any 6.1 ROM, as of now, IMHO, and should probably be in the settings Cpanel! Good stuff.
There is no software without bugs
There was a bug in version 0.9.0.0 which prevents Softkey2 URL to keep it value after the settings are saved. So I have updated the software to version 0.9.0.1. Please read the first post for more details.
Anyway how about a module to modify the layout - changing the cpr file's fontsize, text placement and slide size

It would be nice but it would be more like a software running on PC not on the phone because of its complexity and I don't think I'll have time for that for awhile

Belive me, grouping the panels by their visibility is more difficult to do than leaving them in place but I chose that way because it represents exactly what the user will get on the homescreen.
*Off topic*The version number starts at 0.9.x.x: because I haven't had enough time to implement every features I have planned for version 1.0.
Features still not implemented:
Changing page order on Customize window
Adding/Deleting page on Customize window
First of all, thank you for making such a great app. I installed it on my Vox and it works great. The only question I have is: How can I add the CLinks page? When I make it visible, it's not on the homescreen, because it's just not present in the reg. Is there an easy way of adding it?
so i was messin around with it because it diddnt seem you work i hid all the panles and now it wont load even a blank screen when i reset it it freezes at with the start menu bar showing and the windows wait symbol anyone got an idea or am i F'd
Can you still open it with Active Sync? Because if, you might wanna delete the sliding themes and then reboot. It'll probably show that it can't load a layout, but you can acces the startmenu again.

I tried that myself and it required a hard reset to fix the problem. I didn't expect the homescreen to crash like that when no panel is visible (typical Microsoft QA
To do a hardreset:
- Turn off the phone
- Remove the battery for a few seconds and put it back
- Hold both your soft keys for a couple seconds and then while still holding the 2 keys, press power on.
I'll make sure that there's must be at least one visible panel in the next release.
Top Bar Gone
When I install either this one or CHome Weather, the top bar with the status icon disappears. If I uninstall both, the top bar reappears. I have tried it several times, and I get the same results. Any ideas?

Does it just reload the homescreen? If it does, it want work with for people using the TestUIPlugin(like CHome Weather). If this panel is being used, then a reboot is needed to reload the homescreen. But I could be wrong, I was once before.

Already flashed MIUI ROM? OK, pick up your phone now, let’s start our happy journey of MIUI ROM.
The first step: selecting apps
Various apps will greatly enrich your cell phone, so firstly let’s select the apps to your taste. Use the Android Market and download what you would like. If you are using a backup app and restoring apps from a previous ROM, only restore the apps and not the data. Otherwise that will create a lot of force close issues.
Tip: How to copy files from the computer to the phone? First connect your phone to your computer via data cable, pull down the notification panel from the top of the phone, click “USB connected”, and then click "Turn on USB storage”.
After copying, do not forget to select the option of “Turn off USB storage”, otherwise "File Manager” in the phone will not be able to find the sd card, as it is being occupied by the computer.
Now I have a lot of apps, how to put them in order?
All apps successfully installed are listed on the desktop, however, they may not be in the order you want, how to put them in order?
Long press an app icon and then you may move it freely. When it is moved to the screen border, the screen will automatically switch to the next screen.
How to add a screen? Use two fingers to pinch on the desktop to enter screen thumbnail mode. Then you may add or delete screens.
How to delete an app? Long press the app icon you want to delete, drag it on top of the trash box and click OK to delete it.
The second step: let's make your phone different.
A phone without style is nothing remarkable, so let’s make your phone different!
Changing wallpaper: Click Menu button on the desktop, select “Change Wallpaper” to replace the wallpaper. In addition to the existing wallpaper in the phone, thousands of pieces of wallpaper are also available online.
Changing theme: Themes make great changes to your interface style. Click “Theme Manager” on the desktop to select the theme you like. Also, more online themes are available online.
Selecting ringtones and more: click “Settings” on the desktop to set call and notification ringtones. In “Personalization” under “Personal” tab, you may find more options.
The third step: it’s time for some advanced techniques!
Well, you are no longer a beginner now, so let’s learn some advanced techniques.
Adding widgets on the desktop: press the Menu button on the desktop, select "Edit Mode", and then click the icon on the upper right corner to access the interface of “Add Widgets”. Choose your favorite widget on the top, and then drag it to the screen below.
Using folders to manage desktop apps: in the interface of “Add Widgets”, drag [Folder] to the desktop. You may drag multiple apps into folders to classify them. After opening the folder, you may click the edit icon in the upper left corner to rename the folder.
Using toggles panel to improve efficiency: drag the notification panel down from the top, click "Toggles" to go to the toggles panel (It goes to the toggles panel in default of notice.) On the panel are listed the most commonly used toggles, you may click to quickly enable or disable a toggle. Long press on the icon will launch the settings for that icon.
Guest mode: enable the “Guest Mode” toggle in the panel, and your calls and text messages logs will be hidden, and all installed applications cannot be removed. You may have a try when you need to show your phone to guests or children.
Importing contacts or binding accounts: you may use some apps to import a batch of contacts, or bind Google account directly in "Settings"> "Personal"> "Accounts & Sync Settings" to sync contacts at any time.
How to print screens? Press "Menu" key and "Volume Down" key at the same time to print a screen. The printed image is saved in the directory of MIUI in the SD card.

You should. Like I've said before, after trying many many ROM's, I've come to the conclusion that MIUI is EVERYTHING that I want in my phone and there will be no looking back to any other ROM's out there.
OMG OMG OMG official miui..... not a port....
Does the official rom still have the theme engine problem? I didnt see it in the changelog, and it was the only thing keeping me from using the miui ports.
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA Premium App
Miui Rocks....it was the first Rom that truly set itself apart from CM roms and the like. It was my dd for a while but updates started coming out that required full rlashing, it became pointless. It seems that they are a lot more stable now....might come bqck and check them out again.
OP incredible job on the detail of your posts. One car certainly tell that you are not just theming and calling it a new tommy....cheers!

does MIUI have a good calendar/agenda app? I can't find one that beats Sense or Go Launcher EX at the moment.
Agenda Widget Plus and Pure Grid Calendar aren't as smooth or as well integrated =/
So beautiful and so tempting but it seems that it will never ever manage to utilize the functionality of the G2's Quick Keys =(

Should be fixed with today's (Friday) build.
With all due respect, what is the benefit of an 'official' MIUI ROM over any of the currently-maintained ports such as OsiMood? It does not seem like we are going to get G2-specific features like Quick Keys or Tab working.
Is the performance any better than these 'unofficial' ports?

This being official, I would assume that they are going to look at the g2 specific features a bit more?
Maybe I'm just being optimistic
Ima give the 3 roms a whirl, finally.
My phone number: Unknown
One issue I've noticed with this as well is that it can't read my phone number from the SIM card. That can cause issues with certain apps that require it (like TikL, for example).
Menu > Settings > System > About Phone > More information > Status
For me, that shows "My phone number: Unknown". And yes, I am sure my phone number is present on the SIM.

Please include the ISO locale code such as en-US, fr-FR, etc when posting. You may also submit corrections this way as well. Please do not leave any field blank/empty or I will end up using Microsoft's Translator to do my evil bidding. When I add new items I will just keep everything in English for the mean time. It is up to you guys and gals (the community) to update the files.
Troubleshooting
App will not open: first restart your phone...if that does not work then uninstall and reinstall
Task Result Error (Unable to open image selection screen): You cannot have your phone connected to Zune in order to use the image selection screen. This is a limitation of the OS so just unplug your phone from the computer .
Navigation Failure: Try, try again.
Unhandled Exception: Stop breaking my application...just kidding. Reply to this threa with the full exception message you get and as much information on how you got the error
Everything else: Same as above

2011 December 31 (2.0)
Major UI overhaul
Ability to select: Accent Color (both stock and custom), Library of stock Icons, Library of your own Icons, Library of stock Backgrounds, Library of customized Backgrounds
Coming soon (Do not ask when):
Back tiles
Ability to change the font, color, and size of the Tile Title (say that 10 time fast)
Ability to have multiple tiles that launch the same task. This would be for launching Websites for example. You will get the option to type an address if you want.
Option to Do things that the API can do such as call a person, e-mail a person, etc.
Blank tiles that do absolutely nothing
More "stock" icons
Some UI changes
Option to select from applications that are from the APP store
Maybe a neat feature for those that donate.
I’m also working on launching shortcuts without having to launch Supreme Shortcuts first (though this might not work).
Device specific utilities such as the Dell Engineering Mode, Samsung Diagnostics screen, etc.

thanks, nice job. Needed the Internet Sharing Tile
I havent tried this out but I was wondering when you press on wifi does it disable it right away or does it just bring you to the setting page
Settings page
Yes, finally IS shortcut Thanks for your effords!
Thanks for this app !
I found a small bug:
If you launch the search settings page the Wifi page appears.
=> probably you used the wrong GUID.
Is it possible to share the source code ?

Hi MJCS,
Can you add a shortcut for "Internet Explorer" please ??
I want to custom tile of Internet Explorer and we can't because it's an application system !!!
If you create a shortcut, we can custom tile of this shortcut and pin it to the home ...
Your application it's a way to custom Tile of System application !!!! ... All peoples are waiting for it
Thankx,
Poloche
Could you add the attached shortcut (works only on Samsung devices) to your app ?
I think smaller icons fit better to the system icons but this is just a question of personal taste. The package only include the icons you can see on the screenshot.
For my personal use I also changed SplashScreenImage to black...
This works wonders =]
I have posted about it [APP] Supreme Shortcuts.
Do you have a video demo of the application working on a phone or would you like for me to create one?
Also are you going to be making any other useful homebrew applications for Windows Phone? =]
Thanks @wphomebrew

I'll look into it and see if I can fix it.
** UPDATE **
Fixed.
In the next version I will be making it so you can access the 32 or so Stock applications. I will NOT be adding options to run 3rd party or OEM applications. I will also be adding the option to set the icon of all the apps within the application itself.
How about adding the possibility to enter a custom GUID and icon-name ? So the user will be able to pin whatever he wants if he knows the GUID....
