Touchflo for Treo 750

Anyone heard if this is possible?
Hmmm...I'm interested in that too!
I saw a repack of the requisite files floating around elsewhere - I might give installing it a shot and see what happens.
Worst case is it hard resets my device or shoots freaking laserbeams across the house, hitting my brother's girlfriend, which at the moment I would consider a useful feature...
culd some one post a picture of it running on treo 750 ?
what means touchflo? .. give me link or explanation.. thx

check out the HTC Touch
I think with the touchflo interface, the 750v would be near perfect!
That being the case, gimme it please
Simmiter....if you get hold of it and make it work...can you post a few pics and give a comment on your expedition?
Cheers

I went ahead and install the 5 tab htc today plugin and played around with it. Their seems to be a stability problem as the treo now would randomly reboot itself. I tried installing it after a hard reset and it seems okay but started rebooting again after installing my apps. got rid of it for now... hehe
just installed the 6 tab htc home no trouble so far awaiting the probs though
hey guys i heard that the 3 tab works with our 750...i heard it somewhere in the touch threads...btw id we install it, with a simple uninstall and a soft reset, will it get everything back to normal??? or a hard reset is what we have to do to get it normal again...btw where are you guys d/l'ing the touchflo for the 750 from???links please...
hey I have actually installed it on my Treo its loads with no probs. However there are a couple of conflicts like not being able to access the dial pad or call log via the call button. I have even experienced this error while clicking on call log or dial pad. After a little research I found it to be a conflict between the htc home and palm software. Simply clinkin on the left hand corner to initiate the x button pop up I can then click on both the call log as well as the dial pad with out a problem. As for the touch flo cube it does not fit the entire screen, I assume this to be just be the treos 240x240 screen. I also noticed the cube to be slow in it's revolving. If we can get past the conflicts and adapt the program to the treo's screen its possible we might even get it to run as smooth as it does on the artemis. I am shocked at the few interested in advancing such a feature on the treo. I am sure once the cooked roms start to surface we can truly unlock the power of the device.
which touchflo program did you load and where did you get it?
Issues...
Another issue with the Touch Flo Home on the Treo 750, is that the green and red button don't work correctly anymore...
Normally, when you press the red button, the device go to sleep mode, that don't work anymore...
When you press the green button, you don't have the menu with the last call...
That's very annoying for my part...
So I uninstall the Touch Flo Home. Try with the Kaiser's Version and have the same issue...
Touchflo on the Treo 750
Does anyone know how to contact PDAViet? He would be our best option. He may be kind enough to make a rom for the 750 ?? Holding my breath ...

Can someone send me the File for both TouchFLO or HTCHome? Thanks.
I'd like the link to the CABs of the Touchflo and/or HTC Home that anyone has working on the 750.
Thanks in advance.

I installed the 6 Button Kaiser HTC home plugin on my Treo 750 and have no problems with it @ all. As for the green and the Red buttons, all u have to do is add the "Dial Lookup" to the Today screen and the green and red buttons will work perfectly.
HTC Home and TouchFlo are 2 totally different things. HTC Home is the Today Screen plug-in, TouchFlo is the 3D cube, finger scrolling etc which was 1st introduced in the HTC Touch phone.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=327646&highlight=6+tab+htc+home
HTC TouchFlo is not as easy as just a cab to install. TouchFlo needs to update files on the device that can't be changed will the OS is running, n that's why TouchFlo has to be cooked in the ROM
Ok....
With Dial Lookup checked, the red and green buttons work! Thanks for that.
The problem now is that there is wasted screen real estate below the Kaiser plugin for the network carrier logo.
Hidelogo causes resets so don't bother.
and if you try to type contacts by name they go off the bottom of the screen. is there a way to use the screen better?

Wizard with WM6 How do I get the HTC Plugin to Work?

I have searched the forums until my eyes bleed, I have downloaded and downloaded but still it does not work.
Does anyone have HTC Home Plugin cab files for the following?
MDA Vario/Wizard running WM6
I have managed to get the HTC Home Plug-in to appear in the Today Options screen and I have installed the HTC HomePlug-in customizer and run it but still nothing appears on my Today screen.
If anyone has managed to get the HTC Home Plug-in running on a Wizard with WM6 then please point me at the files I need.
Many thanks in advance.
Mick

Yep, duff link. Could you please send me another link to the pulgin and a compatible HTC Plugin customizer. (Could you post the file here please, at work and Rapid Share is blocked)
Many thanks for your help
Mick (St.Helens, Merseyside)
I am not sure but I remember I picked up somewhere here that the home plugin does not work properly if installed as cab rather than included in the ROM.
You may check it.
Cheers!

Hi,
if i right know, give's 2 versions: light witout HTC-programs and a professional version within HTC-programs. (so i found this 2 versions for german WM6)
May be, that you need the WM6 professional version with integrated HTC-tool-programs.

Hello
I reverted to WM5 by using this ROM:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=345205
Works great. Thanks for your help everybody.
Mick
Just use the HTC Home that is version 1.5, it works on WM5 and WM6. I installed it on my device using the cab, and modded it no prob. I run the Jag rom and have no issues. HTC Home above 1.5 don't always play nice unless they are cooked into the rom.
HTC Home v1.5
where can i get it for download?
greetings Frank
v1.5 also not works/displayed
i have found it and install the HTC home v1.5 on my device.
But it's also not work: clear scren, were the HTC home-screen should be to displayed...
i capitulate...
HTC Home for Wizard
Here try this one and make sure you uninstall any other version you have and have soft reset before installing
I also tried to attach the Home customiser but it kept failing so i have uploaded it to rapidshare
http://rapidshare.com/files/86916021/HHCv08b_1_.cab
it's work!
scousemartin, great thanks!
The HTC Home plugin now works! I be so happy...
What was my error by all the other versions and installations?
I think it's was partially not compatible to WM5 or the installations was incompletely. So i install in the last an older configurator...
I don't know, what was the error...
Gives ther some tips for setting other funktions for the icons, so i can to determine all open programs by one klick in the HTC Home Plugin?
over again great thanks to scousemartin!
PS:
one other question above HTC Home plugin:
In the top on left the screen shows the provider-network. So by me it's Vodafone.de.
If i power up my device (i'm at home), so it's show shortly "vodafone.de" and than for under one second "home" and than again permanently "vodafone.de".
I think, if i be in my homezone "vodafone at home" the HTC home-plugin is shortly signaled "home" by power up the device. If it right, that the HTC home-Plugin can show the "home-zone", so is the signalisation to short.
Give's ther an trick to show the Signalisation of "home-zone" permanently or that the plugin can showes it by permanently switch the displaying between Network-provider and signaled "home" or a other way to display the homezone if i be in my homezone?
Thanks for inside informations!
Frank
That was the only one i could get to work for the wizard to,glad you are happy, as for a task manager ,to show you all running programs, just add it to the program tab of htc home and then you can just click it to show up all running programs, or install Battstatus, that has a task manager built into it ,or use x-button
"home" signalisation included?
Thanks, i will test the programs or plugins for end all open programs by on click in the next time.
but... what is with the signalisation "home"? It is right, that HTC home can display the homezone (only very shortly) or it is a false interpretation, that is was short displayed "home" by power on the device (if i be in my homezone)?
Gives there an option, that it can displayed a longer time as under one second?
additionaly:
Oh, "home" was not by each swith-on displayed! Is my device longer time switched off (standby), than showes "home", if i switch from on to off and afresh on (also from the second switch-on).
Frank
Edit: I posted in the wrong section. my mistake.
Can v1.5 be installed if v1.0 is in the ROM?
This looks interesting. I'm running Octaivoi v6 which has a built-in HTC Home. I assume it's v1 although I don't really know.
Do you think there is a way to switch to v1.5? There is no way to uninstall the HTC Home from the ROM, of course...
Many thanks, man!

a experiment:
go into the registry: HKLM-SOFTWARE-HTC and delete the entry HTCHome. Make sure, that you have make a registry-backup, before you delete the entry.
Make a softreset.
If now the HTCHome-display not shows, look to start-settings-home-elements whether there still the entry "HTC Home".
If not, so test the setup of HTCHome 1.5, if the setup can now overwrite the older files or if it got an error-message.
May be, that you must have the extracted files and copy it manualy.
How i said: It's an experiment! May be that it works, may be, that it not works...
If the newer files not can be to copying, than restore the registry, so that the older HTCHome-Plugin again can works.

Cant Change Clock with HTC Home Customizer on WM6.1

am i the only one having this problem ?
using HTC Home Customizer v1.0b5.CAB on Duttys Official WM6.1 Release
well i guess im the only one having this problem.... so does anybody have a solution ?? or another way to change the default clock
alright same issue exists when using hhc 1b6 and also when i disable htc home and reinstall a different version of htc home
Delete the htc home folder in the device...and try again now.
if the above doesn't work, try a different version of home. to my understanding there are several versions. I had a simmiliar problem with Home a while back, but now its fine after I installed a different version.

No HTC Home settings tab after official 6.1 upgrade

Hi,
After upgrading my phone to the official 6.1 ROM, I no longer have the HTC home tab under Settings -> Today. I do have the plug-in enabled under 'Items', but am unable to configure anything.
Any ideas?
Thanks.
(searched quite a bit, but could find nothing related)

I have no problems with mine!
Did u flash from the OEM WM6 or a cooked ROM? If you were using a cooked ROM , see if changing back to your OEM SPL will assist.
I suggest u Hard reset and if that still does'nt work reflash with a freshly downloaded OEM ROM.
I have had no problems with my HTC WM 6.1 ROM at all.
The touch screen seems less responsive though.
I have noticed lags in 6.1 both using the on screen and the hardware keyboard. But that's actually nothing compared to an annoying "press OK to continue loading the contents of this page" and some other PIE-based troubles.

That settings tab is a feature of some cooked ROMs. Since you're using the official ROM, you won't see it.
HTC Home version 2.1.1005.722 has the settings/personal/today tab. Good luck finding it as a cab.

I am not using a cooked ROM. I'm using the official HTC downloadable update for the Kaiser, and I can enable the HTC Home under Settings/Today/Items . It doesn't have (doesn't need) any options. I also see the HTCHomeplug (quite useless, but works if I turn it on). I also have HTC Plus! , much better than the HTChomeplug, don't remember where I downloaded it from, worked on 6.0 and works perfectly under 6.1.
I'm using dutty's April 29th rom and i also dont have the settings, i dont want the weather icon.
There are third-party utilities that let you customize the HTC home. I have used one called HHC, very nice.
I have HTC Home Customizer but it makes my HTC home buttons look older. Currently i have the "bubble" looking onces, they are more transparent and round, if i use HHC it makes it go back to the old blocky buttons.

Just install this http://rapidshare.com/files/70344158/HTC.Home.v2.1.1005.722.Directory.Fix.Only.schen.cab.zip
And you'll have HTC Home tab in Today settings.
Thanks all; Karolis, that worked for me.
Pity it did not solve the real issue - iGO8 not working with HTC home running.
I was hoping disabling the weather/music tabs would help - but no such luck.
I the solution for the annoying "press ok to continue" problem. Using a registry editor, navigate to HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main and make sure BlockStaticActiveX is set to zero.

Tilt stock WM 6.1 - how to remove 4 tab HTC home?

It's been a few months since I have been to this forum and it looks like there are lots of cool new programs and a new device (the diamond) that has provided some new cabs. I had gotten a lot of great cabs and tips here from last September through Spring but have not really added much to my phone since then. I had Ultimate Launcher with HTC Home as one of the cube faces and I really loved it. Anyway, I recently ruined my Tilt and had it replaced but the new Tilt has windows mobile 6.1 in place of 6.0 and not all of my old cabs/programs work anymore. I'm excited to see what else is out there for 6.1, but in the meantime, I noticed that the stock tilt comes with a version of HTC Home that has 4 of the 5 tabs (it's missing the music tab). I tried to use HTC home customizer but I can't. I can't seem to load a new version of HTC home over it either. I could not find the HTC Home program in the list of removable programs.
Maybe it's time for me to take the leap and move to a flashed ROM but every time I read through the instructions I get a little nervous and decide to wait until I feel like I really know what I am doing.
Anyway, I'd like to remove this stock version of HTC Home and load up a new version of HTC Home and start adding some cool cabs that work with WM6.1 but I can't find any threads addressing this HTC Home issue. Does anyone have any advice?
I too am interested in this if it is possible.
I dont have a working pc at home right now so flashing is not really an option for me.
What version of HTC home are you trying to install. I think there are a few out there. Also what error or msg are you getting when trying to install the faulty htc home plugin?
I successfully installed the new HTC home over the stock one on my AT&T stock ROM 6.1 and nothing broke. it pretty much overwrites the previous one so you don't have any duplicate entries in the remove programs or anything.
i tried to install HTC Home - Schen 2.1 with N2A weatherpatch (UPX compressed). i just realized my mistake was not deselcting it from the home screen before installing the cab. i feel like a jackass. thanks to the people who offered help. by the way is there a newer, better version of HTC home to install?
