Hello ahmad.yousry. cheers for your work with this theme. I have a possibly stupid question. u know in your step to import the regisrty settings could u possibly be a bit more specifc - i.e. i dont know how to do that. im a newbie here and the touch dual is my 1st ppc.
i have copied the biotouch registry key to my memory card and the cab file.
i have PHM registy editor on my phone.
cheers for ur help
p.s. i have a 3 sided htc cube on my touch dual - does that mattter?

just open the registry file from your explorer
no problem about having a 3 sided cube, this is supposed to turn into a 4 sided 1

But this uses not the original Cube.
Therefor u end in a much worse usage.
U can also alter the original Cube by adding new page.
On my XDA Star already was a second Launcherpage.
It's only a copied and renbamed APLauncher.exe (CustAPLauncher.exe),
new registry path under Biotouch (also named CustAPLauncher.exe)
and new Images.
A Member at the german community ppc-welt.de even realised a 3rd Launcherpage that way.

Completely new at this have registered the bio-touch and installed your cab file but when I activate the cube I see your images for 1 second then the old image appear when I scroll left or right this also happens. Can you please help me?

Cube of Life depends on iCube. have you installed iCube before this?

Now that i have all installed, can anyone kind enough to post step by step explanory on how to add or change applications(inclusive of 3rd party installed software) in the cube?

@dlsw

wow! cant really understand it! I guess I will just have to do editing the original path to the path of the programs which I want. By the way, what is the fastest way of find the path of the programs in my phone

How 2 uninstall Cube of Life?
Please, give me some instruction for how can I uninstall this app? I tried WM uninstallation application and SK-tools -- the Cube and its icons are still there. What should I do step by step? Please help!

3-run the registry file and import the settings
4-install the cube by running the CAB file
when try to run the reg file i get the following message:
"There is no application associated with 'Biotouch' run the application first then open this file from within the application

HTC Polaris - HTC Home customization

hello, about a month ago I bought a HTC Polaris (actually the "Find" version, sold by the Italian TIM),
I've some problem in costumizing the HTC Home, i.e. in changing from 4 to 6 tabs:
I followed the procedure posted in (2nd trick):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=355277
but I realised that all the modifications I make to the order of Tabsetting have no effect at all,
moreover, I can see just 5 tabs, not the music tab!
help! any idea?
thanks, Ste

Just try this prog: http://www.pocketemu.com/hhc-info.html
You can customize your Home Plugin very easy with that.

the switch from 4 to 6 tabs should be easily obtained just by
adding the Tabsetting string, whitout the need to install anything...
I wonder why this doesn't work on my mobile

i had a simillar problem with aserg's wwe rom.
the only difference was that i couldn't see the contacts tab.
I had to install the latest HTC Home version to use all 6 tabs.
hope this helps.

many thanks!
just in case, to revert back to my original HTC Home I have to unistall the new version with "program uninstall"?
or I have to backup my device first?
Ste

I dont know, but i think, only hardreset is possible to "uninstall" this version...

mmm, I also wonder why on my HTC the order of the tabs
Tabsetting = 1,2,3,4,5,6
doens't matter at all...
Moreover, even if I remove some tabs, I always get 5 tabs (without the music one), maybe everything is embedded in the ROM, and cannot be changed?
However, before to insert the Tabsetting string and delete the Quickdial one,
I had only 4 tabs!

I download the 6 tab version and, without intalling it, I checked file by file
the differences between the CAB files and those installed in the phone:
the file are the same, and also the registry keys,
however the files on the phone are newer
(e.g. HTCHome.dll ver. is 2.10.1813.2022)
The funny stuff is that in the \Program Files\HTC Home\ directory, the
icons for the Music Player are there! So it seems that the version installed
foreseen the possibility to have a music tab...
I know, I will go crazy with that...

Date long and add a town

Hello all,
I've been searching for a while, even in this forum, but dont find any solutions concerning these two issues:
1) how can i set the date long (dddd dd mm yy) in the today page? My Diamond 2 runs the original French rom, wm 6.5.
2) I ve found a lot of solutions on the Internet to add a town, but no one works, and most of the time i must hard reset the device. HTC Sense doesnt start again. Softs like Weather Database Editor for example make HTC Sense not working and doesnt even add the town i entered...
If someone knows the right way to do so, i would be grateful
Thanks in advance

I confirm it works perfectly with both WM6.1 and WM6.5, just follow the instructions carefully..if you have any problem you can PM me, tell me the city you want to add and I'll make the manila file for you.

Thanks to both of you. I've already tried this method but it didnt work. As i said in my first post, each time i install "Weather Database Editor", it makes my HTC Sense unable to launch. I'll try one more time... but i almost sure i'll must hard-reset...
It would be kind of you Superman122 - sorry, Sualc - if you could make it for me. The town i want to add is Valence, in France, and the AccuWeather code is : EUR|FR|FR022|VALENCE
Thanks again!

Advanced Config - Menu - More settings - TouchFLO 3D - Push "ok" for the error - Home page date format - ok - reset...
Hope it helps you

Valence (FR) weather Added
@ Siber:
Here's your city weather on manila!! (see attached screenshot)
I made a .cab file so that you don't need to install Weather Database Editor anymore,by the way this may interest everyone..
ATTENTION:Since I have an italian ROM, the modified manila file I'm posting contains country names in italian, if that causes any problem or simply you don't like it, please post your manila file and I'll work on it. You can try the one I posted just for the fun of it but BACKUP your manila file first!
Ciaociao

Thank you sualc for your help,
Is there an easy way I can edit the files you posted to add a couple of cities to my TD?
EUR|CH|SZ021|LUGANO|
EUR|IT|IT009|COMO|
Saluti,
Filippo

Lugano (CH) and Como (IT) ADDED
The easy way is to install the .cab I posted above and then manually add your cities using SQLLiteAdmin. If you have an italian ROM you can modify the manila file in previous post, you could edit the "Valence" line (if not interested in..) and any another city you're sure you're never go to .
I am being very brief because I assume you read the "official" instructions, if you have any problems,PM me
EDIT: Well, Since It's almost Xmas and I feel Santa Sualc, i modified the manila file for you, but remeber to install AddCityWeather.cab aswell!!(AGAIN: this file is certified to work in an italian ROM, if something goes wrong I will need you ORIGINAL manila file)
P.S: It's really stupid not to put those cities by default, ok they're not enormous cities like Tokio but they are regional Capitals in their respective countries..

Sulac, you are the best! it works great!
Yes, countries are in italian in the list, but it doesnt matter. Thanks again!

No prob,mate..But seriously, if you want a nice&neat work,just post your manila

Hi koen-ronse and thanks... but i dont find "TouchFLO 3D" in the settings. Are you talking about HTC Diamond 2?

He's not online at the moment, I think I can answer for him:
Advanced config is an application that you have to download and install (google for it), then follow his instructions

Sualc, i didnt want to bother to much, but since you tell me, i post my manila file
Thanks also for the answer about the advanced config!

Here you go, Valence in french database.

Sualc, thanks for your help, and your fast reply!
@ koen-ronse, thanks also, i found the soft "Advanced Settings" and it allowed me to do exactly what i wanted.
It's nice to see there are always people ready to help when needed.

Thanks Sulac,
I can confirm that it works perfectly on my Italian ROM
You are very nice!!!
Buon Natale

1) Yes Both 1.8.5 and 2.0.0 beta
2) HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\HTCAnimation
erase or change the value in StartupWav and StartupGif. To stop the animation install BSBTweaks instead of changing by hand the registry setting
3) I don't know

Answer to #3: I don't know about any NEW cab, but the old StartMenu_Grid_4.cab works just fine for me.
