Where is the file for the " Touch Settings " ? You should start by attaching the settings file since this will be the main thread for Touch Settings
i posted detailed instructions as to how to get the "Touch Settings" program to work correctly on the Sprint Touch a few days ago. I'll re-post it over in the Vogue forum shortly

Please don't re-post this information, as I have now built a new version of the program that should work on the Sprint Touch without any special instructions required. It's been tested by Sprint users and seems to be working well so far.
You can download the beta (v1.29d) from www.fatattitude.com/software
For installation instructions please see: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=324556
Best,

Works great on HTC Touch! WooHoo!
Very Nice job. Very Nice, indeed.
Personally, I wanted the photo to launch the HTC Camera Album.lnk the way you can scroll with your finger & zoom, etc.
So, I created the Photos button in MediaHub to be:
\WindowsHTCAlbum.exe
Params: -mode:camera -type:image
when i try and install the settings app i get a error messsage about
"Installation was unsuccessful. The program or settings cannot be installed because it does not have sufficient system permissions"
how do i chang it so i can install and run this.. thanks

If you look at the post at the top of this page by Carlos, you'll see he says, "For installation instructions please see: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=324556."
He also gives these suggestions:
- If you're installing to Storage Card, try installing to the Device instead.
- If you still get the error, try resetting your device and installing again - this honestly worked for me!
- Check there is enough free storage space on your device.
- Try a manual installation (zip file coming to first post shortly)
There are many posts about this in other threads, so you should be able to find the info you need.
Carlos,
Any reason to upgrade to 1.29e if d is working well?
Secondly, if we do upgrade - do you have to uninstall first? or can you overwrite the program?
I don't seem to be able to see a changes history. I'll keep looking.
carlos said there is a new touch settings version comming out soon where it will help implement animations and custom icons will show when the cube turns. WOOT. and we wont have to install the updated Exe, it will be updated for us.,.]
THANKS CARLOS!

I have spent a good deal of time getting my Sprint Touch to display my local weather by using N2A's "patched" HtcHome.dll which points at a server that does support my local weather (unlike the Htc's accuweather server). Now I would like to use 'Touch Settings' to easily customize what apps get launched from my 3x2 app launcher and the media hub buttons, but I'm not sure if I dare do this yet since I haven't seen anyone explain how 'Touch Settings' accomplishes displaying local weather.
Can anyone tell me how it does this? My concern is that it may conflict with the patched home plugin I already have working.

Hi SprintTouchGuy
Touch Settings updates the registry keys at \HKLM\Software\HTC\HomePlug\Weather\Settings
I don't think this should change your server settings etc, and it certainly won't change which .dll file your weather is pulled from.
Why not do a registry backup of that key, try out Touch Settings and if there are any problems, just restore your registry? I think you'll be OK with it.
Hi all
I have a new beta of Touch Settings v2.0 that I'd really like a couple of people to test for me, in particular people with Vogues and Touch Duals, especially pp18 and that other kind person who volunteered.
I have posted it in:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=324556&page=20
....if you could keep feedback in that thread for now please? Feels like we have too many threads going at once otherwise and gets confusing!
Thanks,
Carlos

Works great...thanks Carlos!
One thing I noticed would be interested in finding out if other Sprint Touch users are seeing: after updating my "On Demand" app launcher's button to open a different app in the mediahub, the "Demand" in the text "On Demand" is now half cut-off. I assume this text (which I would like to change anyway) is stored in the registry somewhere and is not editable via Touch Settings yet. I can spend some time researching which settings to manually change in the registry, but if you are going to add this feature soon to the app, then I won't spend the time.
Thanks again, regardless...

Hi SprintTouchGuy
Glad it's working for you! If you run Touch Settings, you should be able to click in the grey box where it says "On Demand" and change the text to anything you like... ...let me know if it doesn't work for any reason.

Thanks Carlos...I can't believe I didn't think to at least try tapping in there! (Oh me of little faith...)
Next minor issue:
I made my bottom mediahub button say "Voice Recorder", and the word "Recorder" wrapped to a second line which is half-way cut off. I see that text wraps on the middle button as well, and although it doesn't get cut off it does look off-center vertically. I don't know if there is any way to adjust the text vertically with the magic that you do, so for now I'll try to come up with one word labels for the buttons to avoid the issue.
I also am curous what parameter to use to get the HtcAlbum.exe to launch the Camera Album to display just videos, like the 2nd-row 3rd button in does in the 9 button app launcher that comes on the 3rd tab of the HTC Home plugin. Does anybody know what I need to supply? I believe there is a mode: option, but when trying "mode:video" it still only comes up displaying pictures, and it does so in portrait view, not in landscape view like it does from the app launcher (which I prefer). My apologies if this has been discussed already...thanks!

Carlos - this is kind of a QA issue with the interface. Can I make the suggestion that you change the color of that box from gray to something like yellow? The first few times I opened the app I thought it was the typical "grayed out" box -- meaning I couldn't edit it. Whereas when I see a yellow box it grabs my attention and suggests I should be doing something with it...
Hi all.
I've been using the awesome today plugin Ultimate Launch lately, and I truly love it.
One thing that really irritates me is the fact that the program auto-minimizes the tabs almost after every time I turn off the screen. More precisely, the main tab still shows after I turn it on, but it's stuck, and I have to open the programs folder or start a program and then come back to the Today screen, and only then I see that all tabs are minimized.
Anyone knows how to disable this auto-minimize feature??
Thanks!
Until now I haven't even known that the option exists...Have you tried config\behaviour\always minimize height?

pick the tab that you want... and go to "settings" pick the page and hit "change" then go a tab over to "tab" and pick "open tab on startup"
there isnt a way to disable the auto hide feature... unless someone were to get the source code for this and pull it apart... i wish someone was allowed to do this... this app has such a great base to be THE ultimate launcher... i mean, it already lives up to its names in all aspects, speed, weight, stability, and customization... but it leaves some room for desire
btw... to anyone who reads this... im finally gonna upload my theme... its perfect to me in every way
i have two versions... full and lite... the lite one i just made today for my girl friend... shes making me let everyone figure out how to turn it into a lite version... but ill post screens so you can see... it should be up by tomorrow...

Already done that. This only lets you chose which tab is the default one when starting the plugin.

yea, but it should also bring it back up on resume too... make sure there arent any other tabs with that box checked or else it will conflict with the feature

when you try to select more than one tab to as the default start up tab, it will warn you and tell you that another tab will not be default startup tab anymore.
It sounds to me, Kamal, that you are experiencing some sort of a bug, because i don't see that happening to me. Are you using some sort of a plugin for that tab? It might be conflicting or it is slow to load. Have you tried unchecking the "save memory" feature for that tab?
One thing I noticed that's also a related "bug" is that even though you check on a plugin to "activate" on startup and uncheck the save memory feature, some plugins don't load until when you hit that tab for the first time, but after that inital first time, it is loaded. Examples include rlToday and Pocket weather.

Thanks for the reply.
I'm not using any "save memory" feature on any tab I'm using. As you said, it might be a plugin i'm using with it.
Currently I'm using HTChome, Resco Today Plugin, Newsbreak today plugin and Today Agenda.
Guess I'll have to disable one by one to see which one is the culprit.
Any other ideas?

I think maybe everyone is misunderstanding your problem... Under UL Settings/Display Tab/ Fixed Plugin Height. Check this and then all the tabs will be the same size. I have HTC Home as one of my pluggins. You may want to try 170 pixels... That's what I use. Then there's no re-shuffling stuff on the screen when pluggins activate on UL.
Hopefully that will help you out...

make sure u have open tab on start up checked...
mine is always open via that option
Is there a way to manually start the TF3D? Sometimes it takes up to 5 resets to start. Really annoying, since I don't want to hard reset the device...
Hmmm, should start every time if you have it in the today settings.
Check: Start - Settings - Today - Items (bottom of screen) - scroll down to TouchFLO 3D and make sure it is checked. Best to uncheck everything else as TF3D generally conflicts with other today plugins.

Yes, it's there and checked. Nothing else is checked and I have no other today plugins installed.

Hmmm ! Sounds like maybe a manila file is messed up. I guess your best bet is a hard reset.
Alternatively you might try installing a TF3D theme from the forums and see if that fixes it.
Sorry, I can't help much more than that (I've never experienced this problem).

Perhaps a hard reset would be in place...
hi there! i just have one or two appointments per week and i wondered if i can show up these on home tab when they begin in further future (like two or three days or a week) instead of just one day. i hope you understand what i mean...
maybe it's just a value in the registry i have to change from 1 to X to extend the period. but i don't know where to look at! any hints?
thx in advance.
excuse me for pushing this thread, but i'm wondering if this is just a stupid question from me and just a windows mobile included setting i cannot find or really noone knows how to change. can't believe that i'm the only one who would like to have this feature!
or is my english that bad?
Have a look at this mod being developed. this should give you what your looking and more.

okay, it really seems that my english is the reason why nobody understand what i would like
at first, thank you for the link. but as far as i can see (and on the screenshots) the mod is only to have MORE appointments at home screen. but i would like to show up the appointments EARLIER.
as example: i have to visit the dentist in - let's say 5 days. but this appointment should be shown on homnescreen today - not just in 5 days...
do you know now what i mean?
your english is fine.. there's just no registry value for it.. at least not one that I can find.. would be nice to have a setting for that in Sense itself..
Althought it seems logical to have just today's appointments on the "Today Screen" don't you think?
You could set a reminder for a few days before.. not quite the same, I know, but it works..

Im runnin 1.43 stock o2 rom and this mod works perfectly so far apart from a slight graphical misalignment for the alarm button. You should post your issues on Co0kies thread, if you havent done so already, and maybe he will address them.
As for the home tab showing more than todays i have an appointment set for 13/02 and 2 on 15/02 and its showing it on my home tab using Co0kies mod .

I can confirm its working, on default you see an upcoming event in 7 days if no other appointmens are before. See his tips on the registry settings for more days.
i was afraid of testing it, because i thought there is maybe a conflict with my 5x5 shortlinks mod i already have installed.
but i have just tried it and it works perfect! the appointment are shown as i wanted! many thx to all of you.

Hi all,
Ive got a really annoying issue with my phone, when installing updates for a couple of shortcuts Ive got on the home screen tab, the original version got uninstalled and now the shortcut block I had them in is permanently disabled. Nothing on there, it doesnt launch anything and when I try to add a program in there just nothing happens.
Has anybody else had this issue and/or know of a way to sort this problem out?
I've had this issue, and the only one solution was hard reset of the phone. Sorry..
Check the regisrty at HKLM\Software\HTC\Manila\Home.
There you will find the settings for the QuickLinks.
You might change/delete settings to re-enable editting your links.
