But... How to add new shortcut in this new htc today page plug in
i think it must be very easy for some , but not form me

Hi Carlos,
I don't think it can be done as there is no "Options" item
Imer

it can be done via registry settings, but as far as i know you can add no more than 4 aditional buttons

Yes, I have tried to add a 5° item, but nothing appeared ...

Contact First Name, First

hey guyz,
wwhooo got my MDA today finallY!!!
just wanted to know. is there a way to showing the contacts with first name, first because at the moment its showing the surname. is there an option for this? coz i cant find it anywhere.
thx guyz,

Hey snoop
There's a hack available for you in order to do that. It was made for the Exec, but it works on my Orbit, so should be ok for you. It's attached.
kool thanks. i downloaded and installed the file on memory card.
how do i activite it now?
sorry for obvious question
Sorry for the delay in posting.
If you've installed the cab file then there's no need to do anything now. You can now go to contacts and by accessing the menu on a particular contact you can see the "Save as: First Last" in the contact menu.
I hope this was of any use.
Thats a great hack by Grogo, this has been annoying me for a long time, what i do to get around this after adding contact on the PDA I then sync with my MS Outlook and change contact details "File As > pick option" which Grogo's hack does.
hi there !
I just installed this hack, but I see no additional menu in my contacts.
Maybe because I've Italian version of WM5 ?
Hi Gabro,
this hack wasn't made by me, so I'm not 100% sure if it'll work on a italian version of WM5.
Here's a link to the original post, try asking the author. Cheers and good luck.
de-installing and re-installing again made the job.
Windows deja-vu !
this simply does not work for me ... unfortunately ... is there alternative way to fix this issue ?
doesnt work for me either (wm6), i see the option in the menu but it does nothing.
I used to have this on my exec and it worked fine though
EDIT:
cancel that, If i hold down my stylus on a contact and choose "File As:First Last" it works a treat, only trouble is I cant do it en-mass, I have to select each contact individually :/

where do i find "htc today"?

hi all.
iv'e got faria's WM6 rom on my tytn, works o.k. but i want to add htc today as installable plugin.
where do i find the cab or installation exe for this?
thanks.

DiStefano's Cab Collection
3 Button HTC Today
Refering to HTC Today, instead of the 5 or 6 button, is there any 3-button HTC Today like the original from HTC Touch? Couldn't seem to locate/search it anyway
rgds
You can find the 3 buttons version at:
http://www.freewarepocketpc.net/s.php?querywords=HTC+Home
I too like the HTC 3 buttons version.
Thanks bchau...
Thanks for the posts guys. Downloaded this and will give it a try on my 8525.
Glad you posted the link for the 3 buttons version! I've been looking for that one.
not working with Schap's 3.54b, if installed it will appear like the normal 5 buttons HTC home plugin..anyone knows why?

I guess its because Shap allready enchached the HTC Home version in his rom. The plugin is allready cooked in the rom. So if you want to install a new one, you will have to put the files out of "read-only" mode so you can overwrite them. Sounds complicated, but in fact it's very logic. Search for a HTC Home folder
Thank you DiStefano!!
But I still can't find the folder which are you talking about..and I've read somewhere that in the Schap's 3.54b there isn't any folder of the HTC Home Plugin..and another point, the file that I've just downloaded it's a .cab self-installing..where I can get single files?
if i remember correctly schap said his plugin was made to 5 buttons but in registry u can edit it back into 6. let me get into schaps rom ill edit this post in a few min with a solution.
But I'm talking about 3 buttons..not five or six..just like the HTC Home Plugin of the Touch/Elf.. I think it's nicer and smarter..less buttons more fun..
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\HTCHome]
"TabSetting"="1,2,3,4,5"
is ur original reg entry. to get it to 3 do 1,2,3 to get to 6 do 1,2,3,4,5,6. in other edit that registry to whatever u like it to be.
Love you man!!However stay online..I try a second and report a feed!!
Man.. ..because if i edit the registry nothing changes..still 6 buttons..
EDIT: IT WORKS!! JUS DOESN'T WORKS WITH THE HTC KAISER HOME PLUGIN (THE ONE TRANSPARENT)
MAN YOU'RE GREAT!!
just..any idea how to change the three buttons? I mean..I don't think that the contact button is useful for me..how do I can swap it with the button which allows to select faster the applications?
in shap's 1.54b rom you've to launch advanced configurator (built-in in attrezzi sistema )
there you'll find the "HOME" tab.
check only what you need and choose the position on the home plugin
Bye J
I've just writed in the HKEY_Local Machine_Software_Htc_Home ecc.. not 1,2,3 but 1,3,4 (I was guessing that 4 was associated to the application launcher) and it works perfectly!!
told u it was a reg entry glad to hear it worked
thank you so muuch pawel..did you know if this could be done also in the htc kaiser home plugin? and..about the htc home plugin of schap's 3.54b..how do i install the pack of new icons posted somewhere here?

Wm5 -> Wm6 -> Wm5

Hi,
I bought an HTC p3600 last week and upgraded it WM6 for no obvious reason at the time. I tried over 6 different ROMs, and no offense to the beloved cookers, i couldn't stand the bugs, so I downgraded to WM5 again. The only things I'm missing from WM6 are the task manager menu on the top right of today menu (xBotton), which was extremly handy, the lovely big TouchPad and KeyPad, keyboards which Bepe has put in his ROMs, which are very good for writing messages with one hand, and the quick search in emails, while you typed your search string while in the inbox or any other folders. The last but the least is of coures, HTC home which is so good looking and handy.
Now is there anyway i could install these on WM5? I need cracked versions of course, as i'm leaving in Iran and due to lovely embargos getting worse every day I have no means to pay for stuff. So pls comment.
rgds,

Try using the Dopod WM6 ROM or search this forum for the cab files you want.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=319125&highlight=task+manager
Here is one task manager, i used search-> advanced search to find this
edit: here is the newest one
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=329922&highlight=new+taskmanager
Use the advanced search function of the forum and your find all you need - you seem to be very familiar with searching so I wont explain that too!!
i turn from 5 to 6 too, nothing changed but good looking.
what is the bugs some people always saying? can someone give me a example?

One example is that ActiveSync was loosing it's connections in one of the cooked ROM's. That's not a problem if you use it only as phone but not handy when you sync mail from Outlook etc.
It's a big bug, but within a day it was fixed in that ROM and I could choose to use other ROM too.
The forum is called XDA Developers and that means bugs, but lastest developments too. You can't ask a bug free ROM incl. the lastest software. If you want that bug free ROM, maybe you consider an official build or consider another sort of phone like a Nokia 3310.
OR
Define your most important feautures and select one which has those features working. Report the bugs in the other features, but don't complain about them.

I did installed successfully, without any trick or crack the HTC X-Button 1.5 onto my wm5 official Qtek ROM on my Wizard.
So you can definitely have it on your wm5 ROM, just try to find the cab on the forum, it is somewhere there.
If you don't find it PM me, I will upload it for you.
To the attention of Eqbal
Hey dude, got your PM.
As requested, find herewith the X-button 1.5 that I'm using on my wm5 wizard.
Enjoy!

Re: Homezone problem, 02 Germany

Re: Homezone problem, 02 Germany
hallo people,
Than you so much for your great work on ROM. I am successfully changed my ROM from German to English.
I have a problem
I couldn't see 'homezone' in my mobile after flashing from German to English.
Does anyone can help me regarding the same.
Thank you in advance.
Greetings!
Sony
Homezone. It means until some areas my phone acts as a land line. If I cross this area or go far away from my home it turns as a 'mobilezone'. In Germany homezone calls are cheaper than mobilezone.
Hi,
take this to your hdd. Unpack and copy the .dll in your windows folder, and import the reg key to your registry. Thats it, you become an "house" sign in the telefon area on the up right side.
Ah, and dont forget to reset your Diamond...
http://rapidshare.com/files/130060475/Homezone.rar.html
Since i flashed my diamond to Bepes ROM, i dont have an "homezone" sign too. Thats helps a lot i think...
Greets,
Sven
Hallo Sven,
Thank you so much for your quick reply.
Could you please simplify 'how to export the dll file to Registry'? Please write to me step by step. I am not good at computers.
Thanks for your help and time.
Greetings!
Sony
Will this .dll also put the Home Logo into the Manila Homescreen when tweaked "branded style" or is it just showing in the Telephone Interface?
@jbk: only in the telephone screen I search a way to show it in manila... Maybe one of the devel's can mod it...?
@Sony: Write an tutorial for you... Think to send it via PM to you in german - is easyer ^^ So stay tuned... Think its dont take so long time
Seems that the Homezone sign doesnt work anymore under 0.94 Bepe ROM... Anyone experience the same ?
Maybe a way to display the home sign in TFLO3D ???
The Homezone-Sign doesnt work under Bepe 0.99b
Someone got an idea what to do?
any news about a working O2 Homezone icon?

Hi
First of all, welcome!
Then please READ here: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Elf
or here: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Elfin
depending on your device
Good luck,
Welcome to xda
Firstly we have a Q&A section here on xda. if you have questions, please post them there.
Secondly:
As orb has already stated just about anything you can ever imagine can be found in the wiki, as he included some links to get you started.
Thirdly (Yes i'm getting somewhere keep reading )
Shortcuts can be created to create new sms's
you will need to know how to make .lnk files which are simply pure text files containing a path, read on here.
To make programs start up with windows a link to the program needs to be placed in the windows\start up\ folder
Try total commander for a registry editor\ advanced file explorer
For programs check freeware websites such as these.
