htc home. U have probably branded Polaris (ie o2 orbit2) search for htc home plugin

Chech the Today menu for it, if it's not there do a Hard Reset...
If that still doesn't solve the problem you still can use the search option on the forum
Go to Start>Today>Items and tick HTC Home.
If your device is really HTC you should find it, otherwise you may have to go the "hard" way

Hi there,
Firstly, I am new to all this so please dont flame me to hard for it. I have been looking all over the forum and spent some hours here before I decided to post this
I have a SPV M600 and want to do the following
1) Unlock it to T-Mobile
2) Update the rom to the Imate Jamin Rom (I have this)
3) Do I need to clear the ext rom ?
I dont know what tools or programs I need so if someone could kindly tell me where to get these and in what order to do it in, I will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you for ignoring my ignorance
Thanks
Not an answer to your question but a question for you:
The SPV M600 has Orange's horrible menu over the top of the regular M$ Today screen. Is it possible to get rid of this and have the standard M$ user interface? The reason I ask is because I'm thinking of getting one as my next PDA/Phone.
Hopefully someone will provide links to all the instructions you need. :wink:
Can you please post your version details?
i.e your ROM and radio version etc, because not all of the rom versions can be unlocked....
some people have managed to change ROM to the new Imate one using Machinagod's RUU utility, but it does not sim unlock your device.
Some users have unlocked using Lockiwiz (search in wizard forum), but it does not work with AKU2 ROMS
Hope this helps

hi,
i recently purchased a spv m600. you can easily use the standard today screen. just go into the "today" parameters and uncheck the "orange" entry in the elements section.
i have done this and am happily using a standard today screen. however...
on the orange screen there is a cool menu for the sms stuff. it gives you lots of information about sms receieved, etc... i am missing this a little.
however, without the orange today screen, i can not find the sms program at all. i have been looking around, but have not found the executable to be able to launch or create a shortcut.
if any one out there knows where it is, it would be greatly appreciated.

Hi all. I have thoroughly searched through the forum and this is the closest I have come to nyoneone mentioning Oranges Today plugin!
I am trying to customise my Today screen using Wisbar Advance & WAD, but the Orange Today plugin keeps poppin up and interfering with available option for the WAD screen. I think it's an incompatibility thing, but I can't get rid of the Orange plugin even though I have it unchecked in the Today settings.
Please help. Is it deletable (the plug-in) or does anyone know its file/application name?
Any help is appreciated. :?
Did you even read the manual??
To get rid of the Orange plug-in:
Go to Start -> Settings -> Today Screen -> Items
Unceck Orange and press "Ok"
Been there, done that!!

Hi everyone,
i have a Polaris and an Asus p750 too.
i would like to know if it's possibile to make work the HTC today plugin on the Asus. I've tried to install it but after selectin it in the today menu on ther today screen doesn't appear enyting.
Can you help me?
and also... the Asus has a funny quicl launch app that maybe could be ported... or not?
Bye
How did you take the HTC today plugin off the Polaris? Maybe you should try one of the HTC Home cab files that are circulating in the other forums (i.e. Kaiser, Artemis, ect). Those should have all the registry and dll's you need to get running.
i've used the cab file ti install it! the same used to install it on an HTC divece. but nothing.
is there any method to make it work?
no one can help me?
Does anyone know how to remove the orange startup screen from the kaiser it is now SIM free CID unlocked and using duttys wm6 custom but at startup i get the orange startup screen then the HTC one and finally the WM splash any ideas on how to remove all apart from the HTC one?
Welcome to the forum
This was a job that could've been found by searching or looking in the WIKI, but I'll guess you didn't know the right terminology, so didn't know what to look for:

Afraid you can't delete/remove the splash screens, only change them. You could flash a blank pic as the startup screen, then replace the Welcomehead96.png file with a blank .png to get the same effect, but you can't delete them altogether.
ok thanks, tried downloading splashtool but whenever i try to open image converter i get the message mscomctl.ocx or one of its dependancies not correctly registered

Try asking your question in that thread, you'll get a response that much quicker. Try reading that thread too, you might actually find the answer w/o having to post ask it.
Remember, search & *READ* before you post. It'll make people that much happier
im looking for the files, or maybe even a .cab installer of the htc sliding sounds application. ive searched around on here for hours, and all i can find is the program by teirmann(sp).
That would be cool for the WM6.1 slider as well.
i just want to get the offical htc sliding sounds to test out stuff with. if anyone can get a dump of those from a rom or w/e, that would be great.
Hey guys, i just rough drafted a wiki page of how you can make your own sliding sounds on the kaiser.. http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Sliding Sounds
also theres this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=382966
You can find a couple sliding sound cab's there. I created two one is a shotgun pump and the other is a golf theme i created for someone.
So head over there, make your request and if i can find the right wav's i'll create it for you. or go to the wiki page i created and see if u can follow it.
yep, problem is tho, i dont have a kaiser. ive got a hermes. i wanna just test out the HTC software from the kaiser for my own curiosity.
hmm dont know if there is a software for it, just some registry files.
folow that wiki page and try to create them and see if it'd work for u.. i'd try it for u but to be honest.. i have no clue where my hermes is.
ive tried the registry thing, im pretty sure it also involves a control panel applet as well... i guess thats what i want/need then.

you can rip it off one of the kaiser roms. should be "keyboard sliding sound.cpl"
i think u need to look for the trigger that tells the device to activate a sound once the screen orientation is changed.
awesome, any idea how i can rip the cpl file from one of the roms???? i have brief access to a Kaiser(friend at work), so if its something that i could get from the phone while its in operation??? or any tips on how i could rip it out of the rom?? btw, i know nothing about cooking rooms or anything.
http://tiermann.net/index.php?optio...cle&id=2:slidesound&catid=2:PPC Apps&Itemid=2
yep, have u bothered reading the thread at all??? first post i said i dont really like that one. i just want to experiment and try to get the one from the kaiser rom.
Hey, if you're still looking for the Slide Sound cab file PM me and I'll send it to you. It is the Native HTC Slide Sound app that came on the Mogul but it works on the Touch Pro.
Hey, if anybody still needs the sliding keyboard sound on their HTC phone send me a PM. I have the Native HTC app and made a cab that has extra sounds with it.
Hi,
I just purchased a new HTC Touch HD phone T8285.
I have realised that it has come pre-loaded with a lot of Telstra configuration. I am not a Telstra customer and I would like to start with a clean phone in the factory shipped state.
I am in Australia and currently have a contract through Virgin (Optus)
Can anyone advise how I can reset the phone configuration so that all reference to Telstra is removed and that the standard factory settings are in place for Australia.
Any help is appreciated

Hi, welcome to XDA! You would need to flash a chef's cooked rom (must have HardSpl 1st). Check out the Blackstone section of this forum: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=453
Also, read the Sticky's!

When I search for this there are a lot of listings.....can you point me to one that might be specific for my device and location
Apologies as I am new at this....

Scott, just click the http link in my above post and then do your search
Thanks for that I can see those instructions and will attempt to follow them...
A further question should I attempt to first use the following ROM upgrade link from HTC to see if it resolves my problem. Rather then using the previous reset instructions...
http://www.htc.com/www/SupportDownload.aspx?p_id=179&cat=2&dl_id=533
Or will this simple return me to the current state with the Telstra settings in place ?
Thanks

Hi,
Before I work use the post above to re-install the ROM on my HTC Touch HD....could I confirm the following...
- will the re-install of this mean that I will not be able to take updates to the ROM from HTC in the future
- will this process work for me as an Australia mobile phone user ?
- does the install include all the Windows Mobile operating system on the phone ready to use
Once again thanks for you help......I am new to this and want to make sure that I don't stuff the phone that have
Thanks

Social Web - Remove Telstra Wap Redirections ?
HI,
Dont know if anyone can help ... I have been searching the forums, but cant find this anywhere, so apologies if it is answered somewhere else.
I have a new HD2 with Telstra. I have managed to remove the locked quicklinks on the home page, and completed a few other incredible tweaks, but I just cannot seems to get the Social Web links to work when connected to WiFi - they will work when connected via Next G.
On WiFi, when I click on the Facebook icon for example, I get redirected to waprd.telstra.com/redirect?target=facebook-g ... and then nothing happens for about a minute. Just a white screen until I get a message saying "Could not connect to the remote server" . Yet, when I am connected via Next G I connect to Facebook immediately.
I have tried to find the xml code to change the URl, but I cannot find it anywhere.
Is anyone else having this problem, and if they did, was there a solution? Overall I am really happy with the phone (now that I seem to have spent about 3 days tweaking it!) and I would really like to get this fixed.
Thanks so much in advance.

hi sarah,
just wondering how did u get rid of the quicklinks off the the home screen, im not happy how they can not provide a phone in its original state!!any other important tweaks i should do when i purchase the phone??
waprd.telstra
I'm having the same issues any waprd.telstra sites will not work in a wifi enviroment. While I'm asking does anyone know hoe to changes the icons in the telstra "news and sport" or "social web" screens" ?
Hey Magic3091
Unfortunately most of those items are hard wired into the ROM. And the ROM is written to Telstra's specs. Hence the branding and all the BS
I suggest you try a new ROM to remove all of these. You'll have to do some reading to find out which is best for you.
I only just got my HD, and having seen how much Telstra stuff is there I WILL be ROMing it. I just need to figure out which one. If I rememder I will post which I choose.
Currently the MIRI rom looks like the best - new WinMob6.5 and Touch flo.
Cheers
