Hi folks,
today I' ve got my Excalibur back from my colleague. After updating new WM6 I tried to find out how the Music Player Plugin works.
The first result you can find in the screenshot.
Ok, let's start:
- Copy the following lines from the T-MobileDefaultBlue.home.xml
<!-- Music Player -->
<plugin clsid="{166B4205-4D6C-46d7-AA10-9647198FBF65}" name="Music Player" height="22"/>
<plugin clsid="{A502A403-48E4-48b6-A0E8-75633F493F01}" name="SPN Name" height="25" >
</plugin>
to your own homescreen.xml.
- Copy all files beginning with "mpt_....." and the files
Music Plugin Swith.lnk
MusicPlayerGridView.exe
MusicPlayerHomePlugin.dll to Windows folder.
- Edit HKLM-Software-HTC-MusicPlayerPlugin (key exists on my S710) and add the following value:
Value: HomeLayout
Value Data: \Application Data\Home\<yourscreen>.home.xml
Value Type: REG SZ
- Register the MusicPlayerHomePlugin.dll with regsrvceGUI.exe.
After rebooting your homescreen looks like my screenshot.
Problem: you can choose the plugin but the title, remaining time and volume won't be displayed. Only working part is the media player icon on the right (starts media player).
Any ideas what's missing ?

Can you post the files you were talking about :
- Copy all files beginning with "mpt_....." and the files
Music Plugin Swith.lnk
MusicPlayerGridView.exe
MusicPlayerHomePlugin.dll to Windows folder.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
- Register the MusicPlayerHomePlugin.dll with regsrvceGUI.exe.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I will se what i can do
would also like to have the files in question
Hi,
here are the files: KLICK
Newchurch
I got some text, but it wont contact wmp. I'll see what i can do tomorrow. (its late here in Norway now )
WMP plugin
Anyone had any joy with this one - would be nice to have a WMP plugin on the homescreen that works..
Operators are given one as part of the adaption tool kit... its a source code example...
anyone has accesss? and can complie it for us?
Hi,
I had a look at this. The missing piece is the media player plugin registration. Putting it all together in one place, this is what is needed.
1.
Insert the following text into your home screen xml file. Put it after the <plugin>...</plugin> pair where you want the media player control to show up. I put it after the carrier section. You can use the liveexample.home.xml file in the archive available here:
http://rapidshare.com/files/37201289/plugin.rar.html
<!-- Music Player -->
<plugin clsid="{166B4205-4D6C-46d7-AA10-9647198FBF65}" name="Music Player" height="22"/>
<plugin clsid="{A502A403-48E4-48b6-A0E8-75633F493F01}" name="SPN Name" height="25" >
</plugin>
2.
Copy all files in the archive to \windows. These are the various graphics, Music Plugin Switch.lnk, MusicPlayerGridView.exe, and also WmpPluginToday.dll
Next, you need to do a bunch of registry edits (not for the faint of heart). For MusicPlayerHomePlugin.dll you could also just register it with regsrvGUI.exe included in the archive.
3.
Create key HKLM\Software\HTC\MusicPlayerPlugin (key may or may not exist) and add the following:
-Add string "HomeLayout" with value "\Application Data\Home\<your today file>home.xml"
(for example "\Application Data\Home\liveexample.home.xml")
-Add DWORD "ClientUIShowOff" with value 1
4.
Register the MusicPlayerHomePlugin.dll with regsrvceGUI.exe -OR- make the following registry edits:
Create key HKCR\CLSID\{166B4205-4D6C-46d7-AA10-9647198FBF65}
Creake subkey InprocServer32, and make its default value "MusicPlayerHomePlugin.dll"
5.
Creake key HKCR\CLSID\{DAD087AB-1E2F-4b3b-BB5F-0F4D6AB630F8}
Creake subkey InprocServer32, and make its default value "WmpPluginToday.dll"
6.
Create key HKCR\MusicPlayerApp
Create subkey SelectIcon and make it's default value "MusicPlayerGridView.exe,-229"
Create subkey DefaultIcon and make it's default value "MusicPlayerGridView.exe,-230"
7.
Create key HKLM\Software\Microsoft\MediaPlayer\UIPlugins
Create subkey {DAD087AB-1E2F-4b3b-BB5F-0F4D6AB630F8}
-Add strings "FriendlyName"="HTC WMP Plug-in Today" and "Description"="HTC WMP Plug-in Today"
-Add DWORD "Capabilities" with value 1
Create subkey {A13C7005-B7BD-4f0f-B496-A830EAF8DB32} (I'm not actually sure this is needed)
-Add DWORD "Capabilities" with value 42000001
8.
Reboot
That's it. Works great. Enjoy
Dave

thanks a lot
Hello, could make you a file .CAB
Thanks
I agree with MathieuG... I've done all what described in the instruction, but I had no effect of it... If somebody does the *.CAB, i'll be very happy
Thanks darkfinger! Works like a charm on the Vox!
Cab
Ive tried to make an cab included the given RegKeys,but even not work on my Phone,...Tornado with IphoneRom.Maybe work on other Phones?Or maybe an Installation-Bug?give it a try,i hope,ive placed all regkeys....
add:File Updated!!Hope it will work better now... thanks to rickwyatt for the missing dll...
There is an error you has to forget to put the file WmpPluginToday.dll in the .CAB
cab
of course not, these are all the original files given by Newchurch expect the regsrvce.exe-files, and the regtweaks given by Darkfinger...have you reboot btw register the .dll manually?You have to reboot your Phone and choose the WMPlug homescreen in settings...but the Buttons dont work on my phone anyway...

I have a kaiser with the stock rom and in my htc homeplug I have 4 icons battery rotate comm manager and backlight(i think). my buddy has the tilt he has 6 icons (adds phone and messaging icons). if I go to HKLM\Software\HTC\HTCHomeplugin theres 2 more folders in his registry im guessing one for each icon. does anyone know how to add these folders (or just the phone one) in the registry or have a cab that does this? thanks in advance

Hi jaygriggs,
Just install the new Kaiser_htc.home.v2.0.814.722.cab (Item 9 @ post 2)file from over here.
solution
heres how u do it. if u have the htc rom and want the 2 missing items on the plugin using ur registry editor goto HKLM \Software\HTC\HTC Plugin Go to folder 3 and copy(remove*.* and put 4) then do it again this time putting a 5. goto folder 4, go into iconindex and change your decimal value to :130. go into LaunchApParam and change it to:MESSAGING_SMS_NEW go into LaunchApPath and change it to :\windows\LaunchMsItem.exe. change your Res Path to the same as your LaunchApPath Then go into folder 5 and change the Icon index decimal value to :129 go into LaunchApParam and change it to :CALLHISTORY_ALL_CALLS go into LaunchApPath and change it to\windows\LaunchMsItem.exe goto Res Path and change it to the same as the LaunchApPath. Do a soft reset and boom the messaging and phone icons are there. they're re configured the same as they are on the tilt. me and my boy with the tilt are gonna mess with this registry a lil and see if we can't add a for more things.

this isn't the same plugin that jay is referring to.
jay, unfortunately i don't know of any cabs to accommodate what you're looking for but from what i can see on my tilt are these registy values
Folder name = 4
keys:
iconindex (decimal) = 130
LaunchApParam (string) = MESSAGING_SMS_NEW
LaunchApPath (string) = \windows\LaunchMsItem.exe
ResPath (string) = \windows\LaunchMsItem.exe
Folder name = 5
keys:
iconindex (decimal) = 129
LaunchApParam (string) = CALLHISTORY_ALL_CALLS
LaunchApPath (string) = \windows\LaunchMsItem.exe
ResPath (string) = \windows\LaunchMsItem.exe
My suggestion is to add these values yourself.
icons
thanks fb401 we probally posted at the same time. if you add these folders the icons appear. also you can up to 3 more icons and have then fit and function. easy to copy folder 5 and make 6,7,8. if you don't change the icon decimal value you'll have four functioning phone icons that take u to call history. ill have a list tomorrow nite of what I come up with. icons and functions. but for now a icon index decimal value of 105 sometimes shows a clock face but sometimes doesn't... I don't get it just yet
HA, yea we definitely did post at the same time. Let me know what othe icons you figure out. It can definitely be useful.
icons
icon index =105 clock (sometimes appears) =107 wifi appears if you put the comm setings on it =101 notes These icons sometimes appear and sometimes don't im working on it. LaunchApParam CALLHISTORY_ALL_CALLS can be changed to CALLHISTORY_MISSED im working on other parameters I've also managed to launch fileexplorer and camera off these icons. im just trying to find icons then ill post

Any way to launch a new e-mail message (instead of a new SMS)?
yes theres got to be a way to do it . Im working on doing my gmail
duh
read this thread twice and didn't see this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=333898&page=7&highlight=tweak thanks to sas90850 post #69 now maybe we can create a list
heres the listed thus far tested by my phone
You can have up to 9 icons on this line
the batt and rotate icon are 2
and you can add folders 2-8
my comm manager is
LaunchApParam cpl,ain.cpl,6
LaunchAppath \windows\CommManager.exe
ResPath \windows\htcicon.dll
iconindex 107 (i like this icon better than the standard)
my ie launcher
LaunchApParam \windows\iexplore.exe
LaunchAppath and res path are the same
icon index is 0
my camera icon
LaunchApParam \windows\Camera.exe
LaunchAppath and res path are the same
icon index is 0
My file explorer icon
LaunchApParam \windows\fexplore.exe
LaunchAppath and res path are the same
icon index is 0
any program in windows can be linked to these icons for example i Have a snes emulator on my phone so I copied the file to the windows directory
LaunchApParam \windows\PocketSNES.exe
LaunchAp path and res path are the same
icon index is 0
I should be able to link it up to any program on my storage card too. ill be testing tonight
Question:
I want to take the button #4 for the new SMS message, and put it on the Launcher in the HTC Home plugin. HTC Home seems to need a .lnk file (unless someone has figured out what to do with CustomPrograms in the registry ... I searched and didn't find much). I tried to create a .lnk file with the shortcut pointing to: \Windows\LaunchMsItem.exe MESSAGING_SMS_NEW, but it doesn't seem to work.
Is there a better way ... or anyone know how to create a shortcut with a commandline param?
AWESOME!!! I hated all that wasted space. I've now added camera, notes, and calculator icons there. Great work!

the device and doesn't work. the camera, calculator,my snes, work flawless but the ie doesn't launch ur home page (if pie was closed) so im gonna work on that. I also get a lot of email to my gmail account so im working on launching that too. If u do launch things from the storage card it takes a second to load from a reset. also Kona_Mtbkr make sure u have the iconindex correct(or its there and u can't see it) and u do this in a folder by copying a folder and replacing *.* with a new number then go into the folder and changing the strings.
Thanks for the hints jaygriggs. However, I'm talking about how to "New SMS Message" icon to work from the HTCHome 6-tab today plugin with the digital clock (not the HTCHomePlug one-liner).
The HTCHome launcher section in the registry only has values for: DispName, IconPath, Path, and Type ... whereas the HTCHomePlug launcher has: LaunchApPath and LaunchApParam. Since it's the param that's the key to LaunchMsItem.exe ... I need to figure out how to properly specify this param for HTCHome. And since all you can specify is a Path, I figured setting up a shortcut which already has the correct param would be the best way. However, I can't even seem to be able to create a shortcut to LaunchMsItem and append a parameter like the new SMS one.
So that's really what my question is about. I'm also wondering if the HTCHome launcher CustomProgram section in the registry is formatted the same as HTCHomePlug registry entries. That section must have a purpose ... but I can't find any info about it.

How does one identify the settings for the icon? I am looking at putting the dial pad there ('phone.lnk' which really points to cprog.exe)... but I cannot find the icon - the blue phone.

you can use the phone messaging icon which is earlier in this thread, I haven't found the "Blue phone icon yet" but its there somewhere trial and error. if you put icon index 0 launchApParam and launchApPath as \Windows\cprog.exe and t
e Respath as Windows\VTKey.exe u do get a phone icon(but im not satisfied with it)

Thanks... and while I don't mind doing the 'trial and error' thing, having to do a soft reboot every time to see the effect is a bit time consuming, and frankly, a bit of a PITA.

I figured it out ... with a little more searching and some diligence. This isn't exactly what the original thread topic is about, so I'll make this short ...
You can create a LNK file to any of the shortcuts in the HTCHomePlug by creating a text file on your PC with the following format (this uses the New SMS Message button as an example):
<#chars in cmd line>#<path> <params>?<path to resource file>,<icon index>
45#"\Windows\LaunchMSItem.exe" MESSAGING_SMS_NEW?\Windows\LaunchMSItem.exe,130
Put the LNK file in the Start Menu, and it becomes available to choose from the HTCHome Launcher ... or any other app launcher for that matter!
Thanx to Dr. Martin Gonzo in this thread, we can now set the comm manager to the new HTC style!
Dr. Martin Gonzo said:
Here you go. Here is what I changed to it : it is the commmanager from HTC s730, I changed the skin, added vibrate option, created an icon for it and removed some other fonctions I don't use.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Instructions:
Download the comm manager zip below and unpack the files into the windows folder.
the 2 things to change/add in the registry are:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\HTC\CommManager]
"DisableButtonText"=dword:3 (sets the list-style comm manager)
"SupportedFunctions"=dword:6 (sets 6 buttons)
another thing: If you want to have the vibrate button instead of the directpush button in the list, simply rename in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\HTC\CommManager the folders 6 and 4
Good luck!
Additional info about comm manager:
in this Hermes thread ppl are discussing about the various comm manager options.
I'll copy them here and add some:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\CommManager]
"TurnOffPhoneDelay"=dword:0 ----> 0(delay) or 1(No Delay)
"DoNotQueryGPRS"=dword:0 ------>0 or 1 (Not sure what it does, defaulted to 0)
"UseMSFlightMode"=dword:0 ------> 0 or 1 Self Explaination
"TurnOnWLANInFlightMode"=dword:0 ------> 0 or 1(Flightmode Off will turn on WLAN together with Phone and Bluetooth)
"TextColor"=dword:0 -----> 0(white) or 1(Base Hue Color)
"EmptyMenuBar"=dword:0 ------>0(MenuEnabled) or 1(Menu Disabled)
"DefaultScheme"="" -------->use with DinamicBGImage
"SecondBMPResource"="" -------->Use with DinamicBGImage
"DynamicBGImage"=dword:0 ----> 0(static BG) or 1(Dynamic BG) Have not try this yet
"TurnOffAUTDInFlightMode"=dword:0 ----> 0 or 1 self explaination(AUTD is Push Email)
"UseBluetoothCPL"=dword:1 (Not sure what is does, defaulted to 1)
"DisableButtonText"=dword:3 (sets the list-style comm manager, set to 0 for button-style)
"SupportedFunctions"=dword:6 (sets 6 buttons)
So: play around with it and share which ones work on the Vox!
And here is the original skin !
It 's not work with me,
Could you please kindly provide the 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7 directories important informations?
I think it's something wrong about this.
Thanks please,
I meant the Data Communication bar is not come up, but I got ActiveSync instead.
I think the best is you just export the whole Comm Manager key and upload it here. Thank you again
EDIT:
Stupid question, I already have it:

I think the CommManager.exe.040C.mui as I had two other CommManager.exe.0407.mui and CommManager.exe.0409.mui. It is not working here. Any ideas?
@frauhottelman:
you publish the wrong registrydump:
-the SupportedFunctions must be 6 instead of 5
-in the folders 4, 5 and 6 you have 3x vibrate. If you want to see Vibrate, put it as 4 and make 5 DataDisconnection and 6 AUTD
- what is exactly your question about the mui?
@mobile24h:
- I don't understand your question. Don't you see the new comm at all or are you speaking about 1 specific line in the comm manager?
I know the vibrating thing, but that is the registry dump which i got from Dr. Martin Gonzo, I changed that already. The thing is I think mobile24h has the same problem, the Comm manager shows up, but it is the old design from the S710 now with only 6 buttons! That is all that shows up and it is stupid, because the soft keys don't work and the icon bar on top with battery and so on doesn't show up!

try playing around with the "DisableButtonText"=dword:3 function. Change it to 0, 1, 2, 4 etc. I have the ARA 1.27 rom, and it works perfect for me. The setting 0 is the classic version for me, and 3 the new one.
Just use a taskmanager to kill the commmanager proces, and start it again after just adjusted the setting to see the results!
good luck, let me know if this helped!
ps, which language ru using? Mine is english, so the mui is 0409
Mh I tried from 0-5 but it didn't change anything. I am using German, but I tried with US and UK English as well. Maybe the old ROM I am using 1.16.407.1 doesn't support it?!
Hey could you upload the commManager.exe from Windows? Maybe that changed with the new rom!?
Maybe a stupid question, but how do I copy the files to the windows directory. I'm not able to overwrite some files. (They are in use...)
Thanks in advance for the help.
You have to stop the processes which use these files. E.g. if you want to overwrite something that is used by the CommManager.exe, you have to kill that process.
I am closer now, the problem is that the CommManager.exe and CommManagerRes.dll are hidden and I didn't copy them. But now the problem is that it doesn't show text like Bluetooth or Wifi
YEAH
It finally works!!!!!!!!
Here I made a package without hidden files. Just kill CommManager.exe, copy contents of windows folder to your phone's windows folder and overwrite all. Then apply CommManager.reg. Done
thank you or cleaning my messy work !
could someone post polish mui file for this comm manager? (with 415 number in filename)
Hm I don't think anybody has, but you can change the MUI yourself. Just rename it to the right number and open with notepad. There you should see some weired stuff and then things like S e t t i n g s i think when you just change all of them to polish it should work?! Would you try that and then report back if it works?
You should rather use a resource hacker program instead of notepad. That's what I did and it works. Search for reshack or XN Resource Editor in Google
ok I've translated almoust everything but in english mui file there are some french words, if someone could translate it to english I would be grateful
Words:
"Désactiver toutes les connections"
"Désactiver radio" - Is that mean the same as "Turn off phone"?
"Relancer les connections"
Hi,
Long story short, when I first got my TP when I went onto the music tab on TouchFlo it didn't show all the music.
By some miracle one day a few weeks ago it just worked and all my music appeared on the front of the tab and I could scroll through all my music - yay!
Now, I don't know what happened, but now it doesn't show everything, it just shows an album/track that I've clicked in the "Now Playing" bit.
I've done everything, except hard reset (as I've got my TP just the way I like it) so I've updated the library in WMP, formated my storage card - readded the music, just added one song - but nothing.
I've searched all on here and on ppcgeeks and I can't find an answer - please help I love strolling through that
Did you try pressing the library(or whatever its called.. the left one) button in your htc touchflo 3d tab,and then going to the all songs tab ? i know it sounds stupid,but thats what i have to do everytime i add new music...
This 15 steps works..
1. Disable TF3D
2. Soft-reset (only if the step 3-5 failed, but it's better)
3. Open this registry key : HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\AudioManager_Eng\
Delete everything in it
4. Open this registry key :
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\Manila\Music
Delete everything in it
5. Open \Application Data\HTC\
Delete "AudioManager_Eng" folder
6. Enable TF3D
7. Go to the music tab
8. The "Searching..." will not complete, don't worry
9. Go to another tab
10. Go back to music tab, and make sure there's no more "Searching..."
11. Disable TF3D again
12. Soft-reset
13.Open this registry key : HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\AudioManager_Eng\
Delete the "information" key
14. Enable TF3D
15. That works for me...
PDA : HTC Raphael GSM
ROM : Official version 1.90
TF3D : GEN.Y Manila Revolution R1.5
Audio Manager : Haven't changed anything here
File Manager : Resco Explorer 2010 Beta
Registry Editor : Resco Explorer 2010 Beta + Registry Add-in
Thank you...
I hope your problem will be solved..
Friends,
I am almost done with my customization with Manila. Been using the hack apps out there for Diamond Concfig, Tweek etc..
One thing that I am not sure how to change is the home tab "contacts" to icontacts? I did this successfully with ssmapa.exe but it won't change in the home screen.
Please advise what registry edit is needed.
Thank You,
Tvos
nevermind, found it... for those intereted!
HKLM >>> software >>>> HTC >>> Manila
the left softkey path is : HomeLSKPath
and the name will be : HomeSLKText
the right softkey path is : HomeRSKPath
the text to appear will be : HomeRSKText
example the link to contacts is : windows\addrbook.lnk
and u can put this in HomeLSKPath and name test as CONTACTS
tvos
..or you can use Advanced Config (Key Mappings) ..or Diamond Tweak...both have option to change TF3D Soft keys
you didn't read what i posted earlier... icontact was not a option using the schaps or diamond tweek. i had to use the registry editor to change the file location to load..
tvos
Advanced Config has a search box for app not select box ..so you can put there whatever you want...I did it that way...
look at Menu > More Settings > Key Mapping in Advanced Config
question related to this.
how do i get it so that the people page's "all contact's" also goes to icontact.
i tried ssmapa but since the rom im using is a hd manilla port, ssmapa doesnt work proplery. know any work arounds?
edit~~nevermind figured it out.
to anybody else trying to get this to work:
make sure tf3d is disabled (go to settings->today and uncheck the box)
start up ssmapa and hit initiate
go to the poutlook.exe and change the new program to "\Program Files\iContact\iContact.exe"
arguments "$"
Working Dir to "\Program Files\iContact"
then check on the box 'patch enabled' hit save
then go to deply and hit deply patch.
turn tf3d back on and you're good to go =D
Based fully on ammars 12 button action screen for HD. When I installed the ammars version, I found out, that bluetooth toggle was not working and also no button was assigned after install. So I changed the "ToggleBTh.exe" inside the cab for a different version working with LEO and I also assigned the left soft key as the action button. Finally I changed the text in the picture of psshutXP to reflect the device it's used on.
As you can see, I haven't done anything big, just slight modifications, so all the credit still goes to ammar for his HD version and to metkosas as the first creator. Anyway I like this piece of soft and I thought I'd share enjoy
Original ammars post can be found HERE.
If you want to alter the function of any button, check out THIS post which contains a very good how-to.
[Update 22/11/2009]
- v 1.2
- changed cab registry modifications - now working for non-english OS
[Update 21/11/2009]
- v 1.1
- implemented suggestion from post 6 - HTC Contact Editor instead of the old MS one
[Update 20/11/2009]
- replaced "ToggleBTh.exe" used by ammar with a version compatible with LEO
- slight change in graphics od psshutXP (text mostly)
- action assigned to the left soft key
- removed the "today icon" option, as it has no use in manilla
I have uploaded two versions. The first one links the button "gps" to googlemaps. The second one is for those of you, that use iGO8.
Warning: iGO8.exe has to be installed in "\program files\iGO8\iGO8.exe"
Install HD2 12 Button Action Screen to the device not SD!
Very nice, good work!
One question: I've been looking for a simple bluetooth toggle app that works on the Leo, seems you found one, could you post that seperately?
Here you go

Dude, awesome, thanx!
I think smaberg is also working on his 12 button action screen for HD2 ^^
But nice to see this also.
Thanks!
So much more useful than a stupid phone soft key that duplicates the function of the hardware button 1cm below it.
Dupe post
If you are a passing mod, please delete this...
Detxtrosan. Thanks for updating it to work for Leo.
Can I offeer a suggestion to all users and also you to update the cab file so that the New Contact link on the Action Screen takes you to the better looking HTC Contact Editor as opposed to the Microsoft old Contact Editor. Here is the reg tweak...
HKLM\Software\HTC\Biotouch\ActionScreen\App_6
Change path to: \windows\ContactEditor.exe
Also delete text in Param field.
Thanks!
Good idea, I'll do that, thanks for the suggestion.
GPS and Shutdown is not working for me, just takes me back to homescreen.
What version did you download? As for the GPS problem, the answer could be that you downloaded an iGo8 version and you don't have iGo8 installed/installed in the right directory. As for shutdown, I'll have to look into it according to the version you downloaded.
Very good!
Would it be possible for you to include a Tomtom version?
For those, who have installed IGO in their Storage Card (or somewhere else than Program Files\IGO) ...
Go to HKLM\Software\HTC\Biotouch\ActionScreen\App_10
Change Path to the path of your IGO8.exe
SOFT RESET
And now you`re ready to go !
P.S. Thanks for the wonderful application !!!!
I downloaded "HD2_12_button_HD_action_screen_v1.1.cab" so no iGo8 version. When i press GPS or Shutdown i get the loading circles and then back to homescreen, no error or anything.
Do you have a branded version of HD2? Could you check if you have the directory psShutXP after the cab install? The action screen points to the file: \Program Files\psShutXP\psShutXP_nosc.exe
Also can you check if you have the googlemaps installed in the \program files\GoogleMaps directory? The action screen points to the file:\program files\GoogleMaps\GoogleMaps.exe

Here the same. I think it has something to do with language. My dir for shutdown isn't Program Files\psShutXP\psShutXP_nosc.exe but Programmabestanden\psShutXP\psShutXP_nosc.exe
Changed: HKLM\Software\HTC\Biotouch\ActionScreen\App_11
Change path in to my language: Programmabestanden\psShutXP\psShutXP_nosc.exe
Same for GPS/Googlemaps App_10
OK. Thanks for your info mlkenschede. I found out, that the cab registry modifications were hard coded. I changed them to reflect system folders but unfortunately I have an english device so I need you guys to check this out for me. If it works for you I'll update the first post with this version.
MMSLauncher?
MMS tab just open up SMS?! hmm...
I checked it on the dutch version and indeed, shotdown is working correctly.

The thing is that there is no difference in the SMS/MMS dialogue in manilla 2.5. MMS is sent when you add an attachment. Maybe we could come up with a different action assigned to the MMS button instead on the LEO.

THX for the confirmation. Did the GPS button work too?
