Changing Font of HTCHome Clock

I generally like the HTC Home plugin, although I do not particularly like the font that HTC chose for the large clock display.
I have looked through the registry, but have not been able to find the clock font details.
I do like the iPhone clock font or the font type as shown by robinVerdegaal in this (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=355277&page=4) post:
Does any one know how to just change the font of the clock without disabling the HTC Home Plugin?
I have another question too:
Does anyone know how to update/add in to the list of cities and towns in the HTC Home weather list - once again I tried to find in the registry, but was not successful.
Many thanks
T

See here
HTC Home Plugin Customizer
Not sure it is the last. In case of doubt, do a search into the forum.
& enjoy

Thank you for the reply.
I had actually tried this program, but I was not able to get it to work.
I had tried it under a few different scenarios.
I had first changed all of the HTC Home Plugin customisations back to the defaults (by resetting the appropriate registry hacks to get back the 4 button HTC Home screen layout i.e without the Quickdial and Music Player buttons).
I then did a soft reset.
I then installed HTC Home Customiser.
When I run the program, I get the following message:
"An unexpected error has occurred in homecust.exe. Select Quit and then restart this program, or select Details for more information".
The Details are as follows:
"homecust.exe
IndexOutOfRangeException
at homecust.homecust..ctor()
at homecust.Program.Main()"
I have also tried to directly add the seperate icon files and font files into the HTC Home program files and the edit the registry to find them, but still get the same error readings.
So now I'm stuck as to what to do next.
Thanks

@Turnipio:
I had the seem problem initially with the same exception. You need the latest Home plugin for it to work and you can find it here.

Thanks.
I'll try it out now.

You're right ! I've forget this detail. Thanks
Turpino, just be careful with the latest plugin as you may have a problem with the "automatic" profile selection. I've tested it and remark this problem.

How to do that?

there'e all files I used:

more additional and simpler method
used only 2 files:

Nice and thanks
I tried the two files and they worked well here (Pure running Tess 4.1)
I had a few personel changes I would prefer
White(er) clock digits would be more visable on my dark background
And I sometime have a hard time finding the current icon (to slide it )
with the transparent slider, I mainly changed it to get the 5 icons
Either of these "user" adjustable?
(wasn't there a select from multiple clock faces setting somewhere?)
I also noticed (its what really 1st got my attention!)
you have 5 launcher icons
I really like that feature! or even 4 wide how many total icons (rows?)
and how did you do that?
Thanks

+1 (it's true 9 shortcuts it's not enought)

Sorry as a follow up I decide to remove the clock and slider
unfortunately I was unable to remove the clock completely
(remove programs failed) Fortunately I had backed up first and
was abel to get back the original white flip clock with a cold reset and restore
I might have had more luck if I turned off TF3D before attempting removal?
but just as a heads up the cams I had the problems with were
No_BG.cam and No_slider1920.cab
I've also noted that it Doesn't look like the task bars with the two file solution
are actually transparent? they look solid black?
The pic thats with the three files TF3D 2.5 top and bottom curtain files
and clock 26 trans. looks more like what I'm looking for, bit I don't understand how you replace the single manila files with the 3 masks (they all have the same name. even though in different subdirs) but can't help but wonder if these will work with the set of "colored task bar icons" I'm using? (aren't the masks
specific to the icons artwork?
I know I've asked "a lot" and from two different authors, but I'd be willing to
bet its an interesting topic that at least a few people would like to know more about.
Thanks

I'd like to have the bottom slider (the one for selecting tabs) semitransparent.. Actually it is in today screen, ma I'd like to have it semitransparent also on all tabs.

Back to the launcher icons. Anyone has an idea how to get 4 and more there?

Hi,
I can't do this task!
After turning off the HTC Sense, I tried to copy and paste files, but the unit had the following message:
Can not copy 'Access Denied'
Make sure that the memory is enough free storage, the destination is not write protected and file is not being used
I am performing a wrong way?
Thanks

I want more quicklinks, same wallpaper at all tabs, without HDWall!

I've tried "Vovichek_Jamrecords_20shcut". It not only generated duplicated shortcut at start menu, but also disabled the wallpaper.
I've reviewed HDWall, but it is complicated for casual use.
Any other alternative?
I just want to:
1. add more quicklinks at home tab
2. display the same wallpaper at all tabs
btw, any way to make the task bar and bottom button bar transparent?
Thanks.

no one have idea?

My only suggestion would be to review your comment about HDWall, that "it is complicated for casual use." Just follow the steps on the thread on how to do it. It's eeeeeeasy! It makes a cab file that gives you exactly what you want - wallpaper on all tabs and the task bar and bottom bar transparent. (They're the default settings!!) Just make sure you get the latest version.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3616825&postcount=1
As for more quick links, the Vovichek_Jamrecords one works perfectly with HDWall.
Seriously - get over the fear of HDWall. It really is that simple!

Totally agree with the above. With Hdwall unless you're changing wallpaper every 5 minutes I don't see how it could be classed as complicated. I've made 5 new wallpapers today and now got them all on the phone ready to change as and when I'm bored of the current one. It's the time it takes for a cab install to change them. ie. a minute or so with a softreset.

im personally looking for something between hdwall and maxmanilla, any of that exists? i really like maxmanilla (maxtt?) but im really trown off by the fact that 'random' regions of the screen control the layout, id rather just have a menu somewhere (like maxmanilla 2.6 if not mistaken)
Any chance those two guys could work toghether to make a even better manilla replacement? just a thought

I guess you'd have to ask them

I would like to use HDwall but I don't know how to start the program. HDWall.exe doesn't work on my computer. I get an error report : the application failed to initialize properly ... It doesn't work on HD2 either. Please help...

Can't get all Icons changed.. really not
Sorry to grab here but I tried in other threads and other forums but anyone had a solution for me.
I deleted all the Quicklinks on Homescreen, installed Diniks Anastasia set by cab file, cleared the ProgLauncher. In the Start Menu all Icons are showing roght but only about 40% of the Icons come on right on the Homescreen.
I look in Icon changer but there also all icons are showing correct. I long pressed on every Icon and said "hide default icon".. but no change to those that will not show on Homescreen.
By looking inside de Proglauncher Folder I remarked that all the icons that work are listed there, but not those that will not show correctly.. why that?
Any help, suggestions? Pleeeeeeeaaaaaaase?

you have to create a theme with iconchanger, after you have to go in the folder programs\iconchanger\themes\"your_theme_folder_name" and , with a file explorer,(program like rescoexplorer are better!!) rename the icon of the program was showed uncorrectly in your homescreen quicklink, after go in jwdm iconchanger , holdtap the program icon you want to change, programs\iconchanger\themes\"your_theme_folder_name"\"your_icon_you_have_just_renamed" .. afther this reclear the proglauncher folder and all is fine! -- for correct homescreen quicklink softreset is not needed, is needed for start menu only.

Wow, really something new.. gonna triy this tonight. I'll give feedback.. thanks a lot..!

Couldn't wait and tried on the spot. Seems to work out really fine. Thanks for that simple way that even I can understand
Those Icons not showing in Icon Changer I still have to double in .. argh which folder was that again .. does this stay the same to show them?

I did as you said and it would work out.. and now the big BUT:
Some of the links in Windows\Startmenu\Programs are organized in subfolders, for instance folder "tools", as in the Startmenu itself. Icon Changer can obviously NOT SEE INTO subfolders, for it does not list those links, even if copied and pasted. Only if copied to Windows\Startmenu\Programs (one directory up) it is recognized, but of course it does too change place in Startmenu itself, so that's not what I want.
Question: Why can't my Icon Changer (latest version 26b) not see the links in subfolders, for I think that this is common in all standard Roms????
And what do I do to be able to change those Icons..?

CSMI can help
Ok, I could solve this problem by just using other software.. CSMI helped me out, this one even shows which links lie in a folder.

thank u for ur effort ,but still a little problem with the weather switch icon,in the quicklink,im using CSMI but i cant locate it to make the change

I have a HTC HD2
manilla version 2.5.20121412.1
os version 5.2.21889 (21889.5.0.87)
rom version 2.10.531.1 (82076)WWE
rom date 2/22/10
my goal is to be able to have the auto changing wallpapers people talk about in this ofrum, and also the ability to change my clocks thats it!
and i cant seem to do it and then i have to reset phone, and redo all my settings ringtones etc.. which takes me hours. could anyone please guide me in the right direction on what is needed for me to have cookies abundent amount of quicklinks, the ability for me to change clocks, get rid of the ugly HUGE clock, get rid of the flipping, and the ability to change wallpapers?
ive tried downloading and using...http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=493011 but it cant get ti to show clocks or do anything? do i need rom updates? or a diffrent manilla?
any guidance would be greatly appreciated. I'm sitting here now with a freshly reset hd2 out of the box and i will not install a single app until i can figure out how to tweak this. for i'm doen having to redo all my ringtones settings mail accounts start menu's etc...
Thanks for any help.

Have you tried MaxManila Ultimate? Version 3 will suit your version of manila.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=551489
Note that you can NOT run MaxManila AND Cookies together. You will need to choose one over the other.
The reason I think MaxManila might suit you is the 8 varied options for the clock layout (plus various options for the interface itself). MaxManila will not give you as many quicklink pages as Cookies; however it will give you the option to increase the default 9 to 15 - 20.
I am unsure why you continue to apply a hard reset and wipe your data. Are you aware that if you do not like a feature that you have installed, under most circumstances you can simply uninstall it?
To do this go to: Settings - Application - Remove program

thanks yes ive tried max manilla, and didnt lie it
the reason i keep doing hard resets is many of these manilla\themes ive tried it says it wasnt completelly removed when i uninstall them do you want to remove this from your programs? i choose yes and it still stays there. so my goal is to have a clean phone. is there a program like acronis,or norton ghost for cell phones? THAT WOULD SAVE ME A LOAD OF TIME!
not sure why i'm having such difficult with this. ive been reading about tweaking the appearnace of this phone for almost 2 weeks now installed, uninstalled, reset, wrong version, use this manilla if ya have this version but dont use it if you have this, but use it if you use that, but most definatelly don't use it with this model number, if your model is this and you have this rom then update this maniila to this, but only use this cab along with this cab which is located over, once over here don't install this if your using this.
so from your reply... Max TF3D Theme Maker v4.1 will not work with my model phone? is that correct?
thanks for taking the time to help me.
