HTC Home (today plugin) for Universal? - JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro ROM Development

Hello everyone!
First of all, many thanks for making this forum so useful!
Now, does anyone know if it's possible to have the HTC Home plug, extracted from HTC Touch, working in our devices?
Thank you for your time!

Tried installing the HTC homeplug from the wizard forum..
It works.. but graphics all F****d up..
you can see all buttons, but about 1/3 of them is missing.
so a quick uninstall followed..

i am a little bit confused... i thought htc homeplug is different from htc home
HTC home will work on universal with no graphical defects if you are running a trueVGA resolution. on QVGA however, it will still work but most of the icons will be cut off. it contains a clock, weather info, launcher, quickdial, music today controller and profile (more like spb mobile shell but less features)
HTC homeplug will work on both qvga and vga. they contain shortcuts to battery, screen rotate, and comm manager. i read somewhere in the forums where you can add more shortcuts to this plugin...
...pls correct me if i am wrong regarding home vs homeplug... i had the homeplug plugin before when using indra's rom and installed htc home at the same time... hmmm...

HTC Vox Themes
Hi all....
Well if u want themes for HTC Vox then one of the best sites is www.nectun.com. It's in french ..but in the downloads section, u can actually see the skin thumbnails...
A few plugins will be needed with the homescreens, so before downloading the them, check which plugin is required for the homescreen, else it will not function correctly..

Homeplug is VGA aware...
I've got the homeplug working on my Universal though if you change to QVGA mode the fonts are too big. I think this is because it is VGA aware and so displays bigger fonts on VGA devices. So if you were to run it in your screens native resolution i.e. VGA it looks and works very well... Though you may have problems seeing all you other stuff . I'm fine with VGA though so it doesn't bother me at all...
hi.. can you share the file.. plz.. so we can try in our universal also..
Homeplug
Hi,
Any news here?
I tried the app as well, but it doesn't show good.
Want to fix this, do I need to enlarge the icons?
Any suggestions?
Cheers,
Leo
My Friend Laurentius you have to enlarge the layout not the icons.
I am saying that you have to open the distance between each tab so the icons can fully viewed.
Come on do it, you all know that you can.
IF you complete this work i will have a full touch contribution in my Universal and i will upload As soon as possible.
Regards
But... if you can't do it, why do you think I can

Because you have the knowledge. I am just a noobie about the development of oem softwares.

Just need to change font...
I think you're going about the problem backwards , though that said I don't know if there is an easy way of changing the font either ... Changing the size of the text windows in the app involves a lot more work than changing the font size of the numerals within those same windows.
Though since I'm very happy with Homeplug in full VGA all I can say is good luck, because I think you guys are going to need it!
Well... I noticed that this app runs great on the HTC Blue angel.
The screen of the Blue angel has the same size as the Universal.
It still doesn't run 100% on Uni.

I dont understand why is so problem making HTC Home to work in VGA resolutions. Is ther no one can do that?!?
i'm working on it.
to answer your question about blueangel, it has a 320x240 screen, lower resolution of that of universal, which is 640x480.
i'm trying to develop a home plugin for our uni, but it takes lot of time.
stay tuned

HTC Home VGA!!!!!!!!!!! Finally

Ever wanted the HTC home app but hate how it looks in VGA. I found this file claiming to support vga screens and I just tested it out. It looks great on my universal. By the way I am not using "True VGA" on my uni. This is the only file I have been able to find that works without "True VGA."
Great Dear,
It sounds great and works fine
thanx
After uninstalling this, I noted that my date and time icons on the today taskbar has changed into the battery/power icon. This happens only on the today screen. All other screens are correctly showing the date/time info.
Any idea how I can get rid of the useless battery/power icon and bring back the date/time info on my today screen?

Hi tech_e,
Can you please explain what's the difference of this version with the one's with mamaich's HTCHOME.DLL patch posted last December 5 on the HTC Home plugin thread?
The HTCHOME.DLL in your posted cab file is exactly the SAME as mamaich's patched DLL above. Am I missing something? Please enlighten me. Thanks.
edit:
Checked the posted HTC Home cab file & found out that it's exactly the same version I installed which if I'm not mistaken is from Colonel of PPCG..'s + mamaich's htchome.dll patch. If that is the case, then the posted cab file is not the only one that supports Uni's default VGA mode. Any HTC Home version with mamaich's patch which had been tried since 8 days ago has been proven to work fine. Please refer to the HTC Home plugin thread above!

I said that I found this cab not I made it. I don’t care who made it, I only care that it works. As for the other file that you linked I had tried it and many others on my universal and they all looked awful due to I am not running "true vga" patch. I just thought that if there were others that wanted htc home on the vga screen and have been waiting for something that just works I would share my findings. But thanks for the encouragement.
registry is a valid via to update settings.
i have tested A htchome customizer but the result was the same: all 6 tabs are showed all time.
please, test you and sendme the results
thx

Cool down Bro, no intention whatsoever but to find out what was new in it!?
Several things though:
1. It would be a sin for me to keep quiet knowing that the HTC Home plugin appearance problem had been solved since a week ago
2. It's just fair to point you and the others to the ORIGINAL thread source where the HTC HOME problem in Uni was solved, "to give credit where it's due" - wout
3. Finally, I'm thankful for you for creating this thread since it seems that most didn't know of the solution
My work is done. HTC HOME VGA!!!!!!!! Finally - HERE

HTC Home VGA Slight Problem
I installed this on my device and have tried numerous ways of changing the tab order but have failed. I have noticed that unistalling the application and reverting back to the one installed before installing the cab and was able to change the tab order.

Original HTC Polaris Home black screen..??

Could somebody paste here the original HTC Polaris/Cruise Black screen, please...!!! I have a o2 Orbit 2 and the ROM doesn't offer the option for the black screen at the today's home. Instead of that, has a horrible Sunrise Screen which uses black menus

Hi,
Don't know if it's of any use but I found a cab file in the windows folder on the TC. HTC_Home_PPC_Blue.CAB If this is the file that runs during customization might be helpful. If you're interested I could upload it for u (not sure about the 'blue' part though).
Do you want the Htc.tsk ?

I don't know about Metanol but I would love the HTC.tsk (I think).
I have an O2 XDA Orbit (i.e. the Artemis-based one not the new Orbit 2 Polaris-based device) and I also like the black colour scheme that HTC use. I've flashed my device to the official O2 WM6 ROM and I don't have (or need) the fancy HTC tabbed Today screen but what I would really like is to be able to change the colours on the default WM6 Crossbow theme to the HTC black colours. I think that if I just install a suitable tsk then this will do it won't it?
If the above is correct then please do post the HTC.tsk and hopefully that might solve Metanol's problem too.

I will upload the HTC_Home_PPC_Blue.CAB in a couple of hours.
Sorry friends, I really forgot that thread, well, actually I have found the file that i was looking for, the HTC default.tsk.
I'll post it here for some other Orbit 2 users who want to get the simple original black HTC Home screen and so get the possibility to switch off the stardard Sunrise Home Screen.
And so looks the HTC default.
Hi qtek_metanol - i am new to this site and i just recently purchased an O2 Orbit 2 in UK. Managed to find this old thread.
I too would like to get the HTC home screen rather than the O2 theme. Can you let me know if all i need to do is add the HTC default.tsk file to my device under Windows directory to get the HTC home setup. Would this then give me a choice on my Today menu where i can select between O2 and HTC Home?
Finally can you confirm this won;t affect my original settings on my device and if i want to remove it all i need to do is delete the HTC default.tsk file and that would set my phone back to as it was originally?
Thanks
forgot to add that i tried loading the 6 button version and had lots of trouble with that hence i thought maybe the original HTC home (4 button) from the Polaris/Touch Cruise would work better on my Orbit 2. Can you confirm also this is the original Home screen you get on the TC?
Cheers
Hello,
I have a HTC P3600 and after i make a hard reset the screen goes all black, i already try flash the phone but don't result.
If i try to make a hard reset again the screen shows "press ok to make hard reset" after that goes black again.its compleatin %100 but when i want start it its still black screen just light working =mad:
So i think not display problem.
Any solution?

Manila Touchflo 3D Themes - 4 July 2009

Thanks to maranello's HDWall application at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=3616825, I had managed to create two Manila Touchflo 3D Themes (version 2.1 Touchflo 3D) to share with you guys and gals.
The same background is in all the tabs. Hope you will like it. Here's the link:
I have also included the matching background for your Today (Titanium plugin) and Start Menu background.
Hope you will like it.
1. Disable Manila Touchflo 3D
2. Download the theme zip file you want
3. Copy the jpg files to your \Windows directory
4. Run the CleanReg_Manila_Background.mscr
5. Run the cab file (boats_M21.cap or sunsetM21OT.cab)
6. Soft Reset your device.
7. Enable Manila Touchflo 3D
Enjoy!
Here are two more themes.
Putting another post aside in case I need it.
Nice work~~
Maybe a stupid question but what is Manila
I used the search funtion but could'nt find anything usefull.
I like the theme's good job!!!
manila is the technical name for touch flo 3d, the trippy today screen overlay that HTC puts on its phones.
ie all that flip clock stuff and weather application.
