Music Tab on HTC Home

Hi
I am running the Touch Rom on my Orbit, i really like HTC Home but was wondering if there was a way to change it so that when you select open Music Player on HTC Home, it opens Windows Media Player instead of the Audio Manager? you can already do this on the Touch cube but can not find a way to do this for HTC Home.
Is there an application or a regestary Edit that can do this?

Hi,
I don't have home customizer installed now. But as I remember you have to go to the HTC Options menu from the main menu, and you will see a menu called "Change default music player" or something similiar.

How to customize the HTC Home Plugin?

Hi.
My TyTN runs Schap's 3.30c ROM version.
I've also installed Schap's Advanced Configuration Tool Ver 1.1 .
Now, I wish to customize a bit the HTC Home Plugin to display more than 3 tabs. I've read at the schaps rom wiki, that the tool should display a "Home" tab. Yet, It doesn't .
Any ideas anyone
Thanks in advance !
Amit.
The home tab will be in settings/today, next to "appearance" and "items".
You can try HTC Home customizer - it can change the appearance of the plugin, number of tabs and more.

Well.. Its just isn't there !
There are only "appearance" and "items" tabs there... Isn't that strange ?

Well, I've installed that app.
Strange - upon running, it looks as it the application does not recogize the installed Home Plugin (was installed along with the ROM installation). Further more - it reports not finding and current settings, nor it finds the current plugin version.
Changing the parameters using the HTC Home customizer application, does not affect the HTC Home Plugin.
so... ????
any new ideas?

you need the HTC Home customiser which connects to internet and lets you customize the plugin background / icons / clock graphics
I think he means the images in /Windows which skin the plugin, so all he would to apply it is copy the images and replace them i the winodws folder.
i downloaded the pictures from the touch 3.01 rom but there's a sharing violation when you try to copy/overwrite/delete the new pictures in the windows dir....
how do you solve that ?
here is what i did: i've installed HHC (htc home customizer) then i set clock appearance (i put the original clock) and after everything i wanted to set i simply uninstalled HHC (because of space and speed)...all settings remain because HHC replaces old files.so you get free space and performances as before but with much prettier clock
cheers

or he could just use the plugin to get the images himself instead of waiting for someone to upload them
It's call "HTC Home Plugin". If it has 6 tabs, it's extract from Kaiser phone. Sometime call "HTC Kaiser 6 button Home Plugin"
To install sometime hard sometime easy. Depend on the released.

Bt the way, I don't like it because it waste the space too much.
If you want a better implyment and no faulty. Try the software name "MobilityFlow Touch Commander".
still did't understand me,i have the plugin already,but the skin(theme) is the original one,i don't like it,i like the one in touch4.01,so i want the image files in touch 4.01 to replace the old skin
ok easy as:
1- download and install home customiser
2- use home customiser to automatically download and install the theme
job done.
DOWNLOAD HTC HOME CUSTOMIZER HHCv08b (not Lite)OR ANY OTHER VERSION AND READ #9 AGAIN........the clock is really ugly
Thank You All ,problem Solved

Remapping TF3D New Start Menu

I am running wizbar v3 which changes my Start Menu which I like, but I'd like to be able to keep a way to access the default Start Menu that includes app shortcuts (without restoring the Programs tab on the touchFlo interface). What I want to do is create a soft key on the homescreen labeled "Programs" that points to the TF3D start menu so I can have it available while running wisbar. Anyone know how this can be done?
I think I understand what you are trying to do but Wisbar is a today screen plugin that replaces TouchFLO 3D. Without TouchFLO 3D running, you will not be able to access it's program menu interface. I think Wisbar has an icon based start menu, could you use that instead?
thanks for the reply. I'm not sure about that though, my touchFlo is definitely running while I run wisbar..I can go through the tans and all the touchFlo features are fully functioning as wisbar is running. Wisbar's start menu is like a list view instead of the larger icons that touchFlo displays for its design of the Start menu.
Ok, sorry for the misunderstanding. There are several different versions of Wisbar. I thought you were talking about Wisbar Advance Desktop which will replace the TouchFLO 3D. Wisbar Advance is just a start menu replacement and I think that is the one you are using. I don't know if there is a setting to allow you to see the original icon based start menu in Wisbar. You may have to edit the registry to change the soft key or modify one of the xml files for TouchFLO 3D. I have used a different program called Quick Menu that replaces the start menu with one like in Wisbar. It has an option that you can set that will open the original start menu with a long press on the start button. You may want to try Quick Menu, it is a free application and does what you want.

Not real sure what wisbar does, but this cab will put the manila start menu as just another tab on your slider and gives the original start menu back. If wisbar is just another start menu replacement, then that would still work. credit cookiemonster

Right I'm using the Wisbar Advance 3 so my Desktop is the default design. I've used QuickMenu before it's pretty neat, didn't know it had that function with it. In general though I think it would be great to have a way to change each of the softkeys for this new TouchFlo since they change depending on which tab is selected. Hopefully someone is working on this...

[Q] Simple SPB Pocket Plus alternative + profiler?

Hi!
I'm looking for a application that would add program shortcuts to the basic WM 6.1 home screen. Just 6-10 shortcuts, no tabs needed. Something like HTC Home or SPB Pocket Plus (annoying tabs, too many unneeded features).
I tested a few programs like this, but they made too many changes to the start menu.
And it would be cool, it that or another application would allow to quickly change phone profiles (normal/vibrate/silent) either by a programmable button or better by shortcuts on the home screen.
Please recommend, thanks.
