3 tab HTC Home Plugin for Windows Mobile 5. I have tried and it works on my O2 Neo.
To install this app on your prophet, unzip the HTCHomeWM5.zip on your pc and -
1. Copy the cab files onto your device.
2. Run the HTC Home Plug Today Plugin.cab on device (Not Storage Card).
3. Run the SDK Test Certs.cab on device.
4. Copy HtcHome.dll and HTCHome.dll.0409.mui files from the PPC Phone folder to the /windows folder on device.
Use Activesync to copy these two files since they might not be visible in your device File Explorer.
5. Restart your Prophet.
Enjoy !!
~ contribution by kram3r ~
And for Prophet users with a non English ROM, please take note to change the following before you reset your prophet,
- Rename the following files in /windows folder on device

Hey thanks, this one works on my Qtek S200 too!
Now my screen is nice and clean!
Is this something comletely different as the HTC Audiomanager? I tried that one some time ago. Can I build the AudioM in this one?

I've installed the plugin too. I also take some screenshots.
I don't know yet I'll like it... I will see next week.
I've put also the situation of my Today-screen before installing the plugin. Yes, I llike it simple and basic.

I know there is a 6 tab version of the Home Plugin available as well where one of the tabs runs the HTC audiomanager. I have not been able to install it on my Neo, though.

Runs great on my wizard.
only one problem: The weather can't update its data from GPRS, only from WIFI. Anyone encountered that issue?

I was looking for a solution for the 6 tap version, here it is! umesh you 're good!
In version 6-tab there are more city's to choose than in the 3-tab version.
Two things to notice:
At Favorite People, if you don't have a picture of the person/company. It gives the first name.
The Music Player is just a shortcut to Windows Mediaplayer. It's a shame that the Music Player isn't a stand alone player. As you can see at my Homescreen, I use a SPB player. This plugin uses a less memory then the Windows Media Player.

Yes, I've the same problem...
For the people who love pictures, here we go!

Itried it a lot of times to install it but nothing happens.I copy the files to my device, the run the two cab files, restart the device but there's no plugin. It just reserves the space to my today screen but i just can't see it.Any solutions?

It's a beautiful plug-in, but I will uninstall it. The plugin uses resources very much and everything is to reach double now (START). Standalone at startup my memory is 6 MB less!
Plugin eats resources
Sound-tab: this is at less than 1 cm to reach upper row
Favorite Contacts tab: this are shortcuts to the first tel.nr.
In speeddail you can choose your favorite nr of the person.
Music-tab: is just a shortcut to WMP, this eats resources. I use the Spb pugin. It don't startup WMP, but use the music list and setings.

You might want to just try
1. a neat uninstall first of any older copies of unsuccessful installation attempts.
2. Restarting your device.
3. Then try to install again following the steps as mentioned earlier. Make sure you install both the cabs to your device and not storage card if it asks you for that.
As a double check, you might want to check post installation that a bunch of HH_***.png etc. files are installed into the /windows folder of your device and it does not create any HTC Home folder in your device. If so, move all the files under HTC Home folder into the /windows folder and restart.
Hope you get it working !!

You can have the HTC AudioM triggered by the audio tab in the 6 tab HTC modem by modifying the registry HKLM/Software/HTC/Music Plug-in/MusicPlayer to 2 for HTC AM. 1 is for WMP.
Have not tried this since couldn't get the HTC AM to work with my WM5. Let us know if this works for you.

Did anyone get the HTC Audio Manager working on WM5? I got the cab from the link below, but it just doesn't work. I get the 'trusted certificate' message when I try to run it. Please help!

So it doesn't startup WMP? At my device (WM5), it did.

I have the same problem and unfortunately no solution as yet. I did research on the net but to no luck. If any one has resolved this, please share.

I've uninstalled 3 times and checked files in windows folder, but nothing is displayed in the today's screen .... HELP. I've a WM5 prophet French version, as a guy installed it with other than a WME version (english) ?

This message just to report that 6tab version works perfectly on my Artemis (WM5 Italian - TIM). Just remember to rename MUI files on \Windows to match your country before soft reset the PDA (from HTC HDlg.exe.0409.mui to HTC HDlg.exe.0410.mui AND from HTCHome.dll.0409.mui to HTCHome.dll.0410.mui, since 0410 is the country code for Italy).
I also confirm that registry hack to use HTC AudioManager works (remember to rename mui files!)
Great works guys!

thank you very much i instal WM6 on my device but some of my friend look for this plug in for WM5
but a guestion what difrece between these two atachment ?
tnk you very much again

You are welcome, Matin.
The difference between the two attachments is that one of them shows 3 tabs for the HTC Home Plugin i.e. Time, Weather & Application Launcher.
The other is a 6 tab version where there are shortcuts on HTC Home Plugin for Time, Weather, Photo Touch dial, application Launcher, Profile switcher and Music.
I personally liked the 6tab version and am using that at present.

Touch Settings (development ceased) v.2.2 - Change EVERYTHING on your cube!

This application lets you customise your HTC's spinning 'cube' faces in many ways, changing icons, layout, which applications are launched, etc. You can change the following:
- Your Music/Pictures/Video programs (change which apps and titles)
- Your 3x2 APLauncher on the cube (change the apps, icons and titles)
- Layout of your APLauncher; positioning of icons, etc*
- Additional APLauncher Cube faces*
- Your Weather Location to be far more specific (i.e. not the limited in-built city selection)
- Your weather options (auto-update settings, etc.)
IMPORTANT NOTE: The app is no longer being developed - see this post. However, you may still request support from other kind users on this forum thread and I can confirm that it works well on the HTC Touch GSM (Elf). Users have also had success using it on the Sprint Touch, Vogue, OKTA, Touch Dual and Polaris, plus other mobile devices that have HTC TouchFlo correctly installed on them.
See the screenshots below for more info.
A lot of this is achieved via registry changes, on older HTC Touch devices (e.g. GSM Elf), a patched version of mediahubmini.exe is installed due to limitations of the in-built applications.
Installation instructions - Version 2.0 Onwards:
1. Copy the CAB to your device and run it.
Installation instructions - Older versions (before 2.0)
1. DELETE the file MediaHubMini.lnk from your \Windows\Startup directory and reboot... OR just terminate the process MediaHubMini.exe using memmaid, SKTools or another program.
2. Install the attached CAB file.
3. Run the app. (Start Menu -> Programs -> Touch Settings)
4. Click 'Save', reset again (close all apps, and power off your device properly first - otherwise changes may be lost!) and now your changes should be active.
Troubleshooting / Bugs
- If you enter an invalid path, then when you click Pictures or Videos, the device will freeze and you will see the spinning egg-timer forever. Reset, load the config app again and double check you have got the EXACT path to the executable correct.
- If you get an error that you could not install the cab because of "insufficient system priviledges / insufficient system permissions:
- Look into the settings of your device security model - check out this post for more information, or download Microsoft's Device Security Manager to alter your settings.
- Try the manual install version instead. See post on page three as well.

Acctualy,
if you have a ROM that already included any version of "biotouch settings", you can also install this, just by deleting the link (as in the instructions) in Windows\Startup and reseting.
Cheers
EDIT: it doesnt work very well.... try it at your own risk.... not recomended!

Thanks for this - I've had a look and you're absolutely right. The weather lists come directly from the accuWeather.com website, and they use a different system for North America. In fact, it's easier for me to just build the XML file into the app as there are incompatabilities with their 'zipcode' format and some of the home plugins.
Please try the new version v1.22 of the app and you should be able to select from many US cities. (Install to storage card perhaps as it's a bit larger now)

No! Please DON'T try to install using this method!. This version uses a different patch of mediahubmini.exe, so it WON'T work properly. In particular, the choice of "Other" for your music app won't work if you do it this way.
That's precisely why I wrote the installation instructions the way that I did.
Please could you edit your post to discourage this, as I don't have time to deal with the support requests that it would cause.

Just what I was after.
Thanks

thanxs bro nice apps

Excellent app, one question though...
is there an option to reset everything back to default? Don't say "Hard reset" ;-)
Just wondered as I changed my cube long ago and then thought "Damn, should have made a note of all the default parameters"!

There is a default package in first post. "MediaHubMini_Original_Unpatched.zip" to be exact. That should put things back to default if I understand correctly.

Great app. loving It. Could someone owning a nonbranded htc touch please post all the blue cube icons so we dutch t-mobile touch owners can get rid of the hideous pink and stupid web 'n walk icon. Cheers

Not quite
The media hub is one thing but the cube is another.
It had some parameters which I didn't make a not of before I changed apps and icons

UItweaker black.sys
I like your black look that you made, it looks really nice. Do you have to use a certain program to run that black.sys file? I have never played around with the UI stuff or Wisbar, but I am getting bored with the same look too. I guess I will have to look around into that next. Let me know what you are using. Thanks, Kevin

What's the process in getting these two files to work? The last time I tries to replace a welcomhead file it wouldn't let me do it. I'm very interested in the dark settings, too...

what did you use to get the colored icons on top? Looks like WAD...

I tried the UITweaker program to install the sys. It says that it has applyed the settings and asks for a reboot. After rebooting the phone, the settings are all the same as they were before.
Could you write more specific instructions on how I would go about changing the colors?

good job on things like the messaging screen, i did the UITweaker thing a long time ago, so thought i'd share mine and people can compare. maybe we can combine to create the ultimate black UI.
i worked on it, and was forced to end up with a "slate-gray/black" theme, so as to avoid situations like your notification bubbles being black on black.
here's the theme itself:

I was using yours till I tried this one. The black on black is a pain, Ill be going back to yours.

I did what you said for importing but the setting still won't stick when I reboot my device.
Another question, How could I install the splash screen onto my phone. When I try to put it into the windows folder, I get an error saying that it is write protected.

how it works? just copy Dark.sys to windows folder?

You guys can use a program called "Resco Explorer" to overwrite the "Welcomehead.96.sys" in windows directory.

So sorry I didn't mention that my "Dark.sys" is based on your "Azimuth21CustomBlackV4.5". I imported your color theme and did some changes, then exported to be "dark.sys".
I hope we can create the ultimate black UI, I will love it!
As you said, We can't find a way to solve the problem of "Black notification bubbles being black on black" if we keep the windows background in black color. Finally, I decided to keep the Black windows background.
Anywayz, I am still working on the black notification buble problem, hope it will be solved...

Emm...sorry....I dunno if it works on P3600i, but i guess it works on the most of WM6 device...
Letz see if anybody using P3600i and get the color theme work.

how can i change the reception indicator color?

Use UITweaker or SKTool, but the reception indicator color is same as the window background color, which means if u want to change the reception indicator color, u haf to change the window background color. For example : if u change the window background color to be red, then the reception indicator color turn to be red as well.
Sorry for my bad english~Hope u can understand wut i'm talking about...>_<

what liljon is trying to say, is that Windows Mobile is just.... let's say... frustrating. sometimes. lol
yeah so with my theme, the window background (and signal strength, as a side effect) was lightened up so it's not so dark, making it more visible. which meant i had to lighten the window TEXT a little, too, and then... man it's very intricately connected. haha.
i have to really say that with the black window background, everything looks wayyyy nicer. we have to work to find a way to have it so that window background doesn't affect other things.
i dunno if you included this but quadxeon helped with some bits i couldn't think of; check this post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1769830&postcount=82
PS
this UI should work on all Windows Mobile 5 (untested by me, but that's the OS that the software was developed for) and WM6 (working perfectly fine here). it's not a device specific; the only requirement is that you're using Windows Mobile. Actually, now that i think about it, is there WM2003 support?

[05/21/2008] HTC Home Weather 2 BackGround WallPaper v0.1 [New]

A variant of notiweather_wallpaper by superflysocal
So first I want to say tanks you to superflysocal to give me the idea of this release and allow me to use the wallpapers he use for his application.
When I saw is application I wanted to do the same with HTC Home Weather without using S2U2.
So my application read the HTC Home Weather and change the background wallpaper today according with the last weather update.
It's made when you power on your PDA if the weather have change since the last time you powered on.
Maybe if someone wants it I can make a timer to to this too.
This application will change both your landscape and portrait background.
I use the portrait jpg from superflysocal post and modify him landscape to put them in 320*240 so you could replace them by what you want.
It using MortScript and you're not obliged to install MortScript, because my cab include the MortScript.exe and exe files to launch scripts.
What do you need ?
A PDA with WM... Working on WM6.1, don't know on others.
A HTC Home, don't know issues about the version, working on the HTC HomePlug 2.1.1005.722
There are 3 scripts :
* Start.exe
This one save your current backgrounds (landcape and portrait), write into registry to be clean with the Settings/Personnal/Today "Use this picture as the background", so you can see if my application is running and write and Run On Power On event.
* HHW2BGD.exe (linked as Refresh)
This one is the application core, so it read the weather registry and if it see differences since last launch (written in registry as key_old) it search the good jpg and make it as background (landscape and portrait) and lauch a refresh screen (for now I'm using a exe which make it because the command doesn't want to work good in MortScript language...help !!!). This exe was extract from the cab found here but I don't know who make it ??? Thanks for him, very great exe.
* Stop.exe
This last one is used to end up this application, it stop the Run On Power On event, eventually kill the script if running, replace the original background and delete the registry entries made.
What will be install ?
* \Program Files\toniolol\HHW2BGD\
It contain the 3 scripts and 5 exe (3 for the script, 1 for MortScript and 1 for the refresh).
* \Program Files\toniolol\HHW2BGD\BackGrounds\
It contain 3 directory : one for your backup background, one for the landscape and one for the portrait.
* Start/Programs/Weather/
It contain 3 links to Start/Stop/Refresh the application
This application is a beta and so use at your own risk.
Just remember : before uninstall it use the STOP.EXE in the Start/Programs/Weather menu.
If you forgot, the Run On Power On event will stay so you have to destroy him using an software like "check Notifications" or launching the Stop script again : you'll find it with the cab at the end of this post.
Current version :
Version 0.1
This is the first release.
It change the background landscape and portrait when your Power On your PDA and when HTC Home Weather have changed.
Working on :
Tested on TRINITY with FInixNOver 3.2 and 3.3, WM6.1, HTC Home dll v2.1.1005.722 and v2.0.1025.721.
TODO :
Script the TodayRefreshCmd.exe.
Force to update the weather.
Bugs :
I think this application will only works on PDA with 320*240 and 240*320 resolution. maybe it's possible to have configuration files for others.

I have a bug.
TyTN WM 6.1
After Start script PDA is stopped.
Soft-reset help only.

Ok...I've made a bug TyTN software...
Could you tell me some things please :
* when you said stopped, what do you mean ? It freeze or power off ?
* Do you see the dialog box said you that the software is on ?
* Do you have in your windows directory this files :
"\Windows\stwater_240_320.gif"
"\Windows\tdywater_240_320.gif"
"\Windows\stwater_320_240.gif"
"\Windows\tdywater_320_240.gif"
* When you start after the soft reset do you have some error message ?
* May you manually launch the "TodayRefreshCmd.exe" located in \programFiles\toniolol\Weather to see if it stop again
* do you install on device or SD card ?
Thanks for your help...sorry for all this questions
I think it's not a resolution bug because we have the same display resolution.

Could you tell me some things please :
* when you said stopped, what do you mean ? It freeze or power off ?
In HTC Weather update
* Do you see the dialog box said you that the software is on ?
Yes
* Do you have in your windows directory this files :
"\Windows\stwater_240_320.gif"
"\Windows\tdywater_240_320.gif"
"\Windows\stwater_320_240.gif"
"\Windows\tdywater_320_240.gif"
Yest to all.
* When you start after the soft reset do you have some error message ?
No, but wallpaper is changed.
But it is not changed again after
Soft-reset, HTC Weather update, Start, Stop, Reflesh
* May you manually launch the "TodayRefreshCmd.exe" located in \programFiles\toniolol\Weather to see if it stop again
Yes! When I run TodayRefreshCmd.exe - Today is changed!!!
* do you install on device or SD card ?
Device.

I have idea!
Before I don't use MortScrint.
When I launch in \programFiles\toniolol\Weather MortScript - it is say than now file type asociated.
Now your great program work without bugs!

1) Sorry, I haven't understood all, what the state of you PDA when you said your PDA stopped ?
2) So after the messageBox said that the software is on the wall paper change ?
3) And you said that it doesn't change again after, does the weather had changed ?
4) And if you launch the "Stop" do come back to your default wallpaper ?
5) Or do you have error message ?

It's strange, I thought that it was no necessary to have mortscript if the exe is in the directory and the autoexec.exe rename in ScriptName.exe.
I'm sorry, I must make a hard reset to test but I thount I never install mortScript on my PDA.
Some others people had this problem ?
Thanks for helping me debug this v0.1 release !!!!

:-( Sorry for my bad English.
1) Sorry, I haven't understood all, what the state of you PDA when you said your PDA stopped ?
When I try to update weather (Start ON)
2) So after the messageBox said that the software is on the wall paper change ?
No, it isn't change. But when I run the mortscript manually - it work! (and changed)
3) And you said that it doesn't change again after, does the weather had changed ?
Weather is changed, wallpaper it isn't. Now it is changed.
4) And if you launch the "Stop" do come back to your default wallpaper ?
No.... It isn't. I stay on prerious weather wallpaper.
5) Or do you have error message ?
No No error messages.

Device stopped again.

Ok, so it stopped when you want to refresh the weather in your HTC Home.

When my software is off it never happened ?

}
Step 3: Customization
Once you've loaded a stock ROM, you can customize it to your own needs. You can exclude packages, add new packages, or edit some of the app.reg files to tweak it even more.
Keep in mind however that some packages are required for some core functions of the ROM and/or HTC Sense. (Ex: OEMBASE)
Step 4: Build the ROM and Flash
Once you're ready, just go ahead and press the "Start Cooking" button, this will take a while so go take a walk or something...
When the process is finish you will get a file called "ruu_signed_0409.nbh" in the folder "Flash"
This file is your ROM, it's built and now ready to be flash, this can be done in 2 ways:
- via PC: you can flash it by running "ROMUpdateUtility.exe"
- via Storage Card: rename the file from "ruu_signed_0409.nbh" to "LEOIMG.nbh" and copy it to your device to flash it from the Bootloader.

sense language files
Thanks for your kitchen. The only thing I am missing are the sense language files. Could you include them in your next kitchen so that I can change my sense interface in dutch.

Hi,
I gave multiple tries to cook a rom, but no avail. Though, this is the first time I am trying to cook a rom for HD2, I had cooked many times for my previous devices. Cooking gets completed smoothly and even the flashing is successful, but after flashing when the device gets booted, the home screen would just not load. I can do everything else like invoking start menu or dial or whatever, but when I click on Home, the last application screen remains, and home will not load. Looks like a problem with HTC Sense? I will detail what I actully did below.
What I was trying to do was, removing three of the packages from the kitchen. So, after loading LEON_WWE.fe project, I unchecked the following EXT packages:-
1) YouTube_2_6.....
2) Opera_Browser_9_70...
3) GoogleMaps_4_1_0_....
That's it. Now when I go ahead with cooking, everything goes smooth and the process gets completed. Now, after that, I do a Task29 and flash the new cooked rom. Everything is smooth till that point except that, as I mentioned above, the home screen would not load. Please note that other than the above 3 changes, I didn't do anything else, before clicking the button "Start cooking". I tried multiple times, but couldn't solve the issue. After flashing, even I tried a hardreset, but that didn't help either.
Kindly advise. Sorry, if the post is a bit lengthy. I thought, I would explain everything.
Regards,

Yes, it's all selected. Though, under "05 - HTCSense_2_5_20121412_1_ENGINE", four eReader related options are unchecked (which was by default). And in "07 - HTCSense_2_5_X_TWEAKS", everything is selected except "HTCSense_Remove_eReader_Stock" and "HTCSense_Change_LSK_CallHistory".
And HTCSense is selected under "Start"==>"Settings"==>"Today".
It's not that Homescreen showing empty, like when we try to uncheck the option under Today settings ("Start"==>"Settings"==>"Today"). Even the homescreen backgroud is not visible there and the screen stays with whichever last application I had opened. For example, after flashing normally the "Connection Setup" screen comes. So, when I click on the Done button there, the "Connection Setup" doesn't go away, it just stays there. After that when I click on Start, the start menu comes without any failure. But, now when I click on Home button, nothing happens, and start menu stays there. It's as if it is stuck at there, but all the applications runs, after that.
