You can see my attached picture of my browser tab.
1. How can I edit the links you see for News, Sport, and Downloads?
I found the registry entry to edit the default home link for when you tap on the picture of the globe to start Opera. I was able to change that but I can't find the other ones.
2. Also, can I change the text that says "o2 Internet-to-Go" directly below the globe?

I think it displays whatever you have in your Opera bookmark. To change it, simply edit your bookmark in Opera browser.

Nope, editing the bookmarks doesn't seem to help - I definitively don't have any sports-related bookmarks left. Maybe some file in the Opera directory (\windows\Opera9\)?

To change the URL for the globe picture, go to the registry:
HKLM\Software\Opera\Defaults
There you can tap on "HomePageURI" and enter the URL you want.
You can also enter a URL for "DefaultURI" but I'm not sure what that does yet.
I'm still looking for a way to edit the News, Sports, and Downloads links and also how to change the text below the globe. If anyone knows, please help.
tf3dconfig can for sure unblock branded apps in "programs", i don't remember exactely how i did it on mine for browser, but think the same way
EDIT: no, here how (in italian)
Since you are german, you should modify the file InternetPortal-de-DE.xml under \Windows
inside the xml you can also change the browser text

Thanks! I'll take a look at it right now. I'll let you know how it goes.
Hmm, well I tried it, but it did not work.
I found the file you mentioned in the Windows folder.
I opened it in my computer (with notepad) and made the changes.
Then I replaced the file (overwriting) into the Windows folder.
I did a soft reset and nothing changed. But if I look at the xml file in the Windows folder, my changes are still there!
Any ideas?
Here is the original data:
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-16"?>
<InternetPortal>
<IncludeUserFavorites>True</IncludeUserFavorites>
<Banner

And here is how I changed it:

hmmm... I've done that way, with this cab
http://rs419.rapidshare.com/files/165035271/No_TIM_v0.1.cab
as you see inside the cab, the replaced files are "internet.lnk" and the "internetportal", no more...

okay, let me see if that cab helps.
EDIT: Well, I don't really know how to edit the files in that cab so that they apply to the german file (DE) and not the Italian one (IT) and also to edit my desired links in the setup.xml file. Can anyone give me any tips?
Man, I feel I am so close to finally being able to do it, but it's just not working for me.
EDIT 2: I'll attach a copy of the cab so it remains here for the future in case someone wants to check it out.
maybe you have some more references in application data\htc

In that folder, I only have 4 other folders (AudioManager_Eng; databases; HTC ALBUM; ygo) and none of them contain anything that would appear to help. Other than that, there is nothing in that folder (no hidden files or anything).
Found. Copy and overwrite this manila file to windows\
I've included your modified xml. It's a text file, so if you want you can always update/change it with notepad.

Oh man - it still didn't do it. I pasted it into windows\ did restarted TFL3D and nothing happened. I did a soft reset and still no change. I'm sure you have to be so close to figuring it out.
You know, I just thought of something. I installed the cab to have 15 tabs in TFL3D. Do you think that is stopping it from working? I don't see why it would.
Thanks so much for your help. I hope we can figure it out.
I'll try uninstalling the 15-tab cab and see what happens.
EDIT::::::
Unfortunately it still does not change anything. I uninstalled the 15-tab cab, did a soft reset, pasted again the file you sent (overwriting what was in the Windows folder) and the browser tab still has not changed. I wonder what the problem is.
Now I notice that when I stop or restart the TFL3D it gives me a "device.exe" error (send to Microsoft or don't send). I press don't send and everything continues fine. Anyway, I don't mind trying things out. I can always do a hard-reset if things get messed up. I'd really like it if we could solve this.
Last try, but if also this one doesn't work, your rom is haunted
try installing this theme, translucent & blue: it also have modifications on internet tab...

Nope, that did not do it either. It's a nice theme, but my Browser tab looks just like it always has. Man, I wonder why my phone is not allowing that to change. Do you need a cooked ROM? Mine is stock. I might try a hard reset and after that retry the things you suggested.
Seriously - thank you for all your help! If anything else comes to mind, let me know. In the mean time I'll keep looking to see how I can change that. As soon as it works, I'll post back here.
I wonder if I should try a cooked ROM. I've never done anything like that before, so I'm a bit nervous to do it. Well, I did flash my old Motorola v550, but this seems like a bigger task. I'll have to read the wiki to learn about SPL and ROMs and all that. That topic is completely new to me.
Really, don't know... My rom is branded, and i succeeded in unbranding the web tab at first attempt...
Well, I just did a hard reset and tried all the options again. Nothing changed. I wonder what is blocking it.
My ROM is 1.14.207.2 (24011) GER
I guess o2 did something so that you cannot change that. The strange thing is that I am able to overwrite the files in Windows. If I look at them on my PC, they show my information. So, I don't know why it is not working.
I might have to put a different ROM on there or just live with the slight branding links in that browser tab.
Thanks again for your help.
maybe...
what have you inside 26948339_manila?
are there references to the internet tab?
you should have only
Code:
<Page Order="7" Name="internet.page" PackageName="HTC" Title="[[IDS_INTERNETPORTALTITLE]]">
<ComponentReference Name="page" Mode9Path="HTC\internetportal.mode9" Component="GizmoRoot" SmartComponent="true" />
at the beginning, and nothing more in the rest of the file. If instead you have other web references there, maybe the trick is there
There is a ton of information in that file, but I searched in notepad and the only place the word "internet" appears is in this section here:
Code:
<Page Order="4" Name="internet.page" PackageName="HTC" Title="[[IDS_INTERNETPORTALTITLE]]">
<ComponentReference Name="page" Mode9Path="HTC\internetportal.mode9" Component="GizmoRoot" SmartComponent="true" />
<ComponentReference Name="icon_normal" Mode9Path="HTC\icons.mode9" Component="Internet_Off" />
<ComponentReference Name="icon_selected" Mode9Path="HTC\icons.mode9" Component="Internet_On" />
<ComponentReference Name="icon_preview" Mode9Path="HTC\icons.mode9" Component="Internet_Preview" />
</Page>
The word "o2" does not appear in that file.
Hey there
First of all iam not sure if this is the correct section ! Iam very sorry if its not! Maybe a section just for cooking questions would be good ?
Well.. Heres my question ..
Iam cooking a rom for HD, and i would like to add some reg tweaks.. So i have added a bunch but one of my tweaks makes BuildOS come with an error stating that it couldn't build the registry..
I have made a OEM package containing the following reg key..
Code:
REGEDIT4
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\Manila]
"CachedBackgroundPath"=""
"HomeBackgroundPath"="\Windows\Wall.jpg"
The file is named : "1a073e70-e2a0-11dd-ad8b-0800200c9a66.rgu", saved as "Unicode" and with an empty line at the bottom.. And the folder is also containing a file with the same name as above, just with ".dsm" as file extension. This file is empty
I have also added a "option.xml" file with the following inside it:
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-16" standalone="yes"?>
<Items>
<Item name="Personal Reg tweaks" group="Programs" checked="true">
<Tip></Tip>
<Guid type="p">1a073e70-e2a0-11dd-ad8b-0800200c9a66</Guid>
</Item>
</Items>
and an empty initflashfiles.txt file..
But as soon as i include this package in BuildOS i get the error that it couldn't create the registry ..
What have i done wrong? The package is in the OEM folder..
~D
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\Manila]
"CachedBackgroundPath"=""
"HomeBackgroundPath"="\\Windows\\Wall.jpg"
use double \\ in paths

Thanks ! That worked..
I have another question.. If i want to replace the defualt netframework in my rom with the newest 3.5 what do i have to do ?
I have deleted the original NETCF folder in SYS and replaced with one from a cab that i've converted to a OEM using Package Tools 2.7.. But it dosn't work! When i try to start some software that uses netcf 3.5 it comes up with an error..
Hi,
if you usually create your layout styles in styles files in various resource groups (hdpi, ldpi, ...), and end up having the same style declaration in various files with just slightly different values, you might find the little tool of mine handy.
It's really just a small open source python script that combines style declarations and extracts different values (eg. different layout withds in dp) into variables that are kept in the original xml files.
example:
let's say you have the following sample_style defined in values-xlarge and values-xhadpi.
in values-xlarge/styles.xml:
<style name="sample_style">
<item name="android:layout_width">100dp</item>
<item name="android:layout_height">100dp</item>
<style>
in values-xhadpi/styles.xml
<style name="sample_style">
<item name="android:layout_width">200dp</item>
<item name="android:layout_height">100dp</item>
<style>
the optimize process would create a styles.xml file in values containing:
<style name="sample_style">
<item name="android:layout_width">@dimen/SampleStyle_layoutWidth</item>
<item name="android:layout_height">100dp</item>
<style>
and two styles.xml file in values-xlarge and values-xhdpi, resp.
values-xlarge/styles.xml:
<dimen name="SampleStyle_layoutWidth">100dp</dimen>
values-xhdpi/styles.xml:
<dimen name="SampleStyle_layoutWidth">200dp</dimen>
give it a try:

feedback is welcome.

No tool, no link. Is this simply an edit or an actual tool that people can download from somewhere?

Dude ,its an XML value you use in an XML file,open source python script.
It's a Python script downloadable from the mentioned github page.

First you need to search for some tutorials to use apktool to unpack, repack and sign apk file. Also your phone needs to be rooted.
The clock widget is under /system/app/YD_Clock. First copy the file to your computer and unpack it with apktool, go to folder YD_Clock/res/drawable-hdpi-v4/, you can see a lot of image files, and the analog clock images are clock_bg_new.png, minute_arrow_new.png, hour_arrow_new.png (EU_1.1.124b), or hours_arrow_new.png (HK_1.1.44). Then you can use an image editor like GIMP or PHOTOSHOP to modify these images as you like.
If you want to remove the digital clock inside it, go to folder YD_Clock/res/layout, and edit analog_l_clock_new_layout.xml (EU_1.1.124b), or bs_widget_new_layout.xml (HK_1.1.44), and delete the line
Code:
<TextView android:textSize="33.0dip" android:textColor="@android:color/white" android:id="@id/time" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_marginTop="33.0dip" android:layout_below="@id/day_of_week" android:layout_centerHorizontal="true" android:fontFamily="sans-serif" />
, the text may be a little different in other versions, just delete the whole block of codes that includes
Code:
android:id="@id/time"
. Later in order to show the AM/PM information, you need to go to Settings -> Date & Time, and uncheck 24 hour time format.
Then you can repack you apk with apktool and sign it. And finally, replace the original file using TWRP (go to "Mount" Section and mount system, then got to "Advance" -> File manager), and remember to change the file permisson (chmod) to 0644.
Wish the tutorial may be helpful to someone
Also here is a modified analog clock image from Blackberry Q10. The clock design copyright is reserved by RIM, but I guess a modified screenshot is OK
