HTC Home Plugin Help - General Questions and Answers

Dear All.
I am using HTC Home Plugin v.2.10 which allows to modify tab quantity.
I am very pleased with this verison. It's working fine, ecept brigthness function, but there is a solution for it, I don't need it, because I don't use to change brightness from HTC Home.
I need only to change Install Directory on this verison. It's not possible. After changing default install directory from /HTCHome to /Program files/HTC Home nothing appears on the screen. I have tried to make soft reset several times, but no result.
Who can change default install directory /Program files/HTC Home
for HTC Home 2.10?
Please...
I am attaching cab file to this message.
Thanks in advance.

you can unpack it using Package Creator and then repack it using the same app or CeCabManager

Thanks, I will try ...

Didn't work. Same problem.
If change install directory to /Program files/HTC Home the Application HTC Home doesn't appear on the device screen...

how did you initially change the installation directory?

I have never changed installDIR before. I used ready cab file.
But I don't like when programs(software) are installing to other directories. I like to see all the software on Progam Files folder.

I have changed installdir with help of Win CE Cab Manager.
On the files selected all files which were on /HTCHome directory and changed to /Program Files/HTC Home
It seems that it was not enough, it's needed to change some other setting but which settings I don't know.

How to delete files from StartUp folder?

Hi,
I accidentally put actual file instead of lnk into StartUp folder on WM 6.1. Now I can not delete the file becouse it's already launched and it's not even showing in list of running programs. How do I get rid of it in StartUp folder?
Thanks,
G
it might be running in the background. try using a task manager kinda program to see running processes (e.g. wktask) and you should be able to kill it and then delete it
or rename it from somethingsomething.exe to somethingsomething.exe.bak
and softreset
Or you can usually cut the link or file in startup and then paste it somewhere else. Reset, then you can delete it.
not if it's not a shortcut but he places the exe file itself in startup in this case it will be locked and cant be cut
Can you rename the file to something not ".exe" and then reset the phone? Would it work? I've read somewhere around here someone suggesting that. After soft reset, in theory, you should be able to delete the file.

MiniWeather for the VOX

Hey guys... just released a new chome weather version that should work with the VOX also. Can somebody give it a shot ?
I can't seem to get it to install,
Installation was unsuccessful. The program or setting cannot be installed because it does not have sufficient system permissions.
I'm using version 3 of Zeeshee ROM.
Cheers,
Same for me! Same rom. Btw, both weather progs delete my clock icon and blackscreen is not possible to load. (mini with dr.gonzo 6.1 rom)
Everything works!
Extract from cab all files for Windows directory and place them into the device.
Delete this files from cab and save cab.
Modify cab working.
Works brilliant .. Thanks a lot keep it up ... i like the background on the pictures what you post there . it will be great if you send it as well . cheers
I'm being stupid here.
I still can't get it to work.
Can someone upload the modified cab please.
Thank you.
Unzip attached file.
Copy files from 'Windows' (archive) to 'Windows' (device).
Copy cab to device and run it.
Reboot.
Enjoy!
Excellent!
Thank you for posting.
Regards,
Anyone have a screen shot of what it looks like?

weather.yahoo.com gives me NLXX001 as code
Doesn't seem to do anything
(And so is c>f not working)
Are we still using weather.yahoo.com as source?
I had already installed the original MiniWeather on my on my vox (Orange E650) and all was OK except that in portrait mode the weather image didn't show on the clock tab whereas it did in portrait mode. So I decided to install the vox version to see if it would be fixed.
Unfortunately I've found that the files can't be copied over to the device's Windows folder because Resco says they already there as read-only files in ROM and therefore cannot be overwritten. So after installing the 1.0b CAB I get the following error when I initially select options:
Unknown command: "nu=timestamp"
Line 13(\program files\nrg\chomeminiweather\SetOptions.mscr):nu=TimeStamp()
Is there anything that can be done? Would the clock/weather Image have been fixed anyway? If not I'll revert to the previous version
Thanks and nice program !!!
can someoene post a home screen to show how this should look. Its messed up on mine i believe I get 2 panels - the first one works but the image is messed up. The second one says "forecast" but in there it just says "push centre button to update, push right softkey marked options to set your options"
I had trouble copying the two chome files to the windows directory - it said I didnt have permission to copy them.
can anyone assist ?
Frottage........ It sounds like you've had a similar problem to mine above.
If you can't copy the files over the install doesn't work properly.
I've reverted to the non-Vox version and all now seems OK on my Orange E650 with Dr.Gonzo's 5.2.19195 Rom
Try using the Resco Explorer trial to copy them across. It's because the files it's trying to replace are in ROM. Resco worked on my Dr. Gonzo E650.

Assing lock function to icon

Is there a way to assin a new icon to the "lock" function? What *.exe is used for that?
I used this one (attached) and it works on HD2...
Just copy into Windows directory and create a shortcut to copy into Start Menu Directory.
Then you can also add into HTC sense!

Lockscreen as quick link ?
Hi,*I applied both of your solutions, but didn't get them working ...
I can't find Lockscreen.exe in \windows menu.
I tried to put shortcut of Lock.exe in start menu or start menu/programs but can't work any more .... ?
Any idea ?
try to find lockdevice.exe ,Maybe lockscreen.exe is in max manila theme?
No such files, only have lockscreen.dll in \windows.
And I got error with lock.exe posted before ..
(I have orange Rom)
extract lockscreen.exe and Just copy into Windows directory and create a shortcut to copy into Start Menu Directory.

HTC Home and Omnia SilverInbox

Guys,
I am trying to make htc home 2.1 to open silverinbox instead on the default tmail application.
Found suggestions here to edit htchome.dll, replace tmail.exe with something else (I did with smail.exe), resign the file and copy back to windows directory.
Problem is, no matter what I do, htc home always opens the default tmail app.
I attached here my htchome dll file (both patched and unpatched) and also the cab to install silverinbox (works in htc phones). Just rename silverinbox.exe (on windows directory) to smail.exe after installing.
What I am doing wrong?
Thanks guys.

Hi Guys,

Thanks For any help in this weird thing.

good question. I have no idea. lol. sorry.
I don't fully understand taskbar editing. So here is the process i've done on a 6.5.x taskbar.
-Grad the .dll and drag it onto the UnSigner
- create 32x32 png convert to xp colors using icoFX/Axialias Icon Workshop(for converting higher resolutions to .icos e.g the dropdown taskbar in 6.5.x)
-Replace icon using ResHack
-sign it with msigntools
-cab using WinCE or whatever tools are available for download, set the directory to /Windows, install reboot and you have your icons on the taskbar
Just make sure it's the correct version for winMO, i've been using 6.5.5 dll's as a base in all my taskbar works.
Also a simple google search can help you gather up the files.
"How to mod winMO 6.5 taskbar"
Hope this helps

If you need to place your patched .dll files you need to add them in a cab file first.
Send me your dll files patched by pm i will do a cab tomorrow night after office if you want
I have to first download the file from the phone to edit it... that's what I can't do.
I have the tools, I've already donne something similar. But I can't download the DLL file.
Any ideas please?
