HTC Home on Samsung i780 - General Questions and Answers

Guys,
I've installed:
- RealVGA (96dpi + 128dpi)
- HTC-Home-Plugin.cab
- ma_misc_now
- ma_misc_today
- ma_menu_btn
- qa_layouts
but it's not working. Can you please help this n00b out?
Thanks in advance!
Kristof

You are a noob(just like me) A requirement for HTC home is an HTC device with WM 6.1

My i780 has WM6.1

it MUST also be an HTC device

Are you sure?

It is a rar archive wich contains also the htc home, you have to install the one called EFN HTC HOME V2 MAIN.

Okay, I'll try it. No virusses?

No no, it s 100% safe it was posted by efn in his rom's tread

Okay, I've installed HTC Home on my i780. What do I have to do now? I see all the HH files in the HTC Home folder.

Now go in start-settings-Today-items select HTC home and that' s all

I don't see it in my Today folder.
This is the error I keep getting (in Dutch but I'll try to translate):
Since Samsung Today not is compatible with other components of Today, it is only reflected in Samsung Today

Do you have a scrren like this or HTC home isn t there?

Yes, I see that now.
Do I have to restart the device?
Edit: damn, I had it for a second but than that error I mentioned before (quote) came back.

It happened to me when i was using an italianized i1 rom but to solve it i reflashed with L1, restarting the device is unuseful try reflashing your device with a best rom or to perform an hard-reset

What do you mean with "L1"?
I just bought the device and it has WM6.1 allready installed on it. I believe it's the latest ROM.
5.2.20270 (build 20270.1.3.1)

No there are many modified english roms, you can find them on this forum.The L1 i use is one of the first roms with pagepool increased to 16mb but there are also newest roms like HL2 made by inertiax or mascian which are also very good.
Edit: complete name of rom i use is PMSHL1

it merely refers to a ROM that comes only with standard applications; no third party branded software is included.
statup screens are the same with V2.
THX for the support ericjm
Do you know how can I save the MUI files of my phone, I was trying but I become the warning that the the files can not be copy because they are on use.

Thanks Ericjm. I have been waiting for this release for a very very long time. THANKS!!
@MODERATOR: please make this sticky. thanks
This ROM is working pretty well, I enjoy the default.wav being fixed.
I just don't really like the new greenish theme that was applied (the CommMgr buttons are barely readable)
For some reason I'm unable to use a home layout that was using rjtime perfectly with Andot's ROM...

IGO 8 & HTC Home fix

http://eten-users.eu/index.php?showtopic=7229&hl=igo8 sdhc&st=90
edit:
This fix works doesn't work. (anymore)
Very nice! thx dude xD
I had found this fix also, but doesn't seem to work for me.... :-(
when I start igo8.exe the "timer" is visible, goes away, and then.... nothing happens...
Imperium said:
http://rapidshare.com/files/114399012/IGO8Nav_n_Go_MIO.rar thanks to eXceed, he found the fix on the E-ten forums!
(http://eten-users.eu/index.php?showtopic=7229&hl=igo8 sdhc&st=90)
Extract the files in a folder and remove all the _'s from the file extensions (for the noobies out there)
Replace... Data.zip in \SDMMC\iGO8 on your SD card with the patched one, delete the .lic file on your SD card in \SDMMC\iGO8\LICENSE and insert the new iGO8_PDA_PNA.lic and finally replace iGO8.exe in \Program files\iGO8 on your device with the patched one. Enjoy!

No sweat man
The fix is not working. Additionally, in Dutty's April 29 iGo works with HTC Home enabled, see Dutty's description.
The so-called fix replaces the released exe file with the beta version.

The only 6.1 ROM that allows iGo (or MioMap) to work together with HTC Home active is http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=388947
It is also the only ROM that uses HTC Home_2_1_181_3202.
is it possible to update to that home version once installed?
can you also include the cab ?
quoted from the diamond v4 thread :
Disable the music tab. I believe igo will work once that tab is disabled. I dont use Home at all so I have the entire thing disabled but I believe I remember it being reported as the music tab causing the issue.
can any1 test it?
There is no music tab in L26 v3 and v4, or by default
it's not enabled. I have no Assissted GPS tab in Start - Setttings - System - External GPS
but I have disabled it in AdvancedConfig...
Have You install SPB Mobile Shell ? I had removed SBP, before I have started IGO 8. If I install SPB, IGO will not start. I hope having help you.

Update for HTC Touch Diamond2 Handwriting

You can now download "Update for HTC Touch Diamond2 Handwriting" from HTC support site.
Has anybody tried it?
I've just put it on my phone, it's a better supported handwriting recognization, tried it, and i got less letter mistake than before. If you want to texting with your stylus, i think its a recommended upgrade...
It´s not working for me
ROM: 2.16.410.1 (67041) PTG
Radio: 4.49.25.17.
Can anyone help me please?
Thanks in advance.
JSB
Same here.
Download it, installation was ok but no option for handwriting on my TD2.
Can somebody make it in CAB format ?
Thanks forward

At the moment i use |NOV 28||Duttys Sense 2.5 H-Grail R6||5.2.21882

I +1 on this, typing with fingers or stylus is now easier, you do to 99% hit the key you wanted to hit. Very nice hotfix.
Doesn't work for my UDK Rom! "not compatible with your device"
Any idea to solve this problem?
I have a same problem on my ROM
Same here, installed the hotfix, but no new option availible for handwriting.
Could somebody post a screen of the new function?

I've installed it on my stock ROM that you can get on htc.com
Didn't notice anything new. What does this hotfix do btw?
After installing I've deleted the .exe file, is that a problem?

If as I think, you are talking about the Update for HTC Touch Diamond2 Handwriting, it should allow you to add handwriting to permit text input. If you click just to the right of the keyboard input icon, handwriting should be one of the options available to you.

It hasn't worked for me either but I think eveyone sharing their experience here should indicate the ROM that they are using. This may provide some additional insight into where the problem may lie.

Keep WIFI in standby

Hi
Sometimes I need to download some bigger file, I'm using wifi and download manager to do that, but when my phone goes standby wifi turn off and downloading stops. I've already read about some possible tweak for that. Anybody already do it on Touch2 wm 6.5?
