Hi,
Is there a way to have the icons in the Start menu lined-up horizontally and vertically? Now, by default, they are arranged hexagonally
i would also like to know about this
Yep:

Maybe I didn't make myself clear
What I mean is shown below:
Currently Start menu looks like
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
, but I would like to have something like
This would be preferable.
OK, I'v found something. A small configurable application called XTask, download link here.
Btw, if you don't know where to start, just click on the taskbar and drag the line down. The XTask Settings allow you to configure its internal menu and also replace the Start Menu entirely with its own diagonal icon layout. It arranges icons by same strange order, probably like the original Start Menu, but maybe I'll find how to change that.
Alternatively in its settings set it so its file manager starts when clicking the Start Menu icon and browse to Windows\Start Menu\Programs directory. It is normally alphabetically sorted and you can arrange shortcuts to various subfolders. It can be even more easily done with Total Commander or from PC.
And for phone settings click on Control.

Hello,
I'm currently using this layout for the HTC Home plugin:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
You can see a dark square on the selected tab. Is there any way to remove the dark square, so that youy cant see any difference between tabs ?
The following thing I tried don't work:
- remove from program files\htc home : HH_FW_selectedfill.png, HH_FW_selectedleft.png, HH_FW_selectedright.png, HH_BEZEL_fill.png (home plugin will load empty when doing this)
- put empty files in program files\htc home and renamed them to the ones above in this post (home plugin will load empty when doing this)
- resized the files to 1 pixel by 1 pixel (no difference in change at all)
Does anyone know how it can work ?
PS: the default files were already transparant so that's also not an option
try renaming the pressed button pics to the name of the unpressed.

Hello.
After using the Sprite Backup program to restore my smartphone, I'm experiencing a problem with the Settings menu in my WM6.1 phone.
When I go to the "Clock & Alarm" menu I get this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Alarm 2 as you can see, exists twice. The worst is that it in order to use the alarm you have to change both of these menus.
Also, in the Settings - Home Screen menu I get the following options twice:
Homescreen Layout
Show Recent Programs
Color Scheme
Background Image
Homescreen Layout
Show Recent Programs
Color Scheme
Background Image
So in order to change the home screen, I have to go and change it twice.
These problems have been reported in the Sprite Backup site by other people but no solution was given there. My only option is now to find the relative registry entries and try to edit them.
I'd be more than happy if anyone knows where these registry values are in the WM6.1. I don't know if other menus are duplicated too, up until now I havent noticed something. So if anyone knows where the "Clock & Alarm" panel entries and the "Home Screen" panel entries are please tell me.
Thanks
Hello,
I'm already looking for a long time..
I want to remove the call history and calendar shortcut / text.
Can someone just make a very neat and easy cab??
I tried making my own one but i failed
And on XDA i can't find the right treat thats works with stock ROM. Or the clock doesnt work.. Or there are other things that don't work..
With my own cab my home tab looks like this:
(The clock is broken. It stays at 000 and i can't click it.. I can't open the alarm either)
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
And i can't change my background anymore with this cab.. That blue vista is my wallpaper in the other tabs. but for the home page i made my own background, but it doesn't work.
And after removing my cab it works again like it should (accept for the 'oproepen' and 'agena' stuff:
search for "compact homescreen"

Already tried but it works for VGA only.. So this will mess up your homescreen even more
Search for "Max Manila" in forum search; Allows you to cycle through having no items other than clock on the home screen, no agenda, no call history, and mixtures. Powerful app.
this one works for me

Ahh - I assume this does NOT work on stock, eh?
I'm liking the Infuse as my first stock phone, and slowly but inexorably feeling the pull over tot he dark side of rooting, modifying and ultra-customizing!
stock or whatever doesn't matter for this, it's just a tweak for touchwiz
I thought this was a pretty cool setup for those of us who need some more homescreen space but still want a clean look.
"Home2 Shortcut" found here https://market.android.com/details?id=com.eikatou0.appspot.home2shortcut
Plus "Simi Folder" found here https://market.android.com/details?id=com.th.android.widget.SiMiFolder
You can setup a folder in Simi Folder, then open Home2 and assign that folder to a certain button sequence.. For example, double home, home + menu, long press search..and a few others.
It opens very quickly and i have no issues with it. I love the added functionality and thought I would share.

Thanks for the tip! I'm an avid user of Simi folder, and this adds yet another great function to it. I would like to use double-tap menu-menu or back-back or search-search. Do you know if this can be done, or if its limited to the options given in Home2?
I'm afraid it does not.. It allows for double home, home menu, home back, and long press search combinations. I agree tho, double back or menu would be nice options to have, but the double home is good enough.
