At some point in the past few days HTC Home stopped displaying the Contacts/Favorites tab. I am (and have been) using HTC Home Customizer and I see Contacts as a choice on the Tabs setting and have selected (and de-selected several times) it but it still won't display the tab on the home screen.
I tried re-installing HTC Home but no joy...
Any and all thoughts and suggestions would be appreciated. I'm hoping someone can share their registry entries for HTC Home and/or Contacts?
Did you install one of the TouchFlo/Biotouch Cube installation cabs? They add a registry key that hides the contacts from HTCHome
^^^ If you did
i had the same problem and this worked

I did (unsuccessfully) and the registry tweak above fixed it.
Thank you all!!!!

ZILLA - thanks, couldn't remember the exact registry value off hand ... didn't have time to look it up at that point
gregeast - glad to hear that fixed it. Sorry you didn't get the cube working ... it's not an easy install at this point, but pretty cool when you do get it working.
Thank the lawd! It works! I've been searching and reinstalling for a week.
Nice thanks
Where do you find the key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Software/OEM/MASD/QuickDial on the unit, have searched loads of directorys but couldn't find it to delete it?
Well sounds stupid, but you really looked in the Registry and not the File Structure? It is exactly there under MASD....

You have to use Regedit program and to search you have to search for QuickDial
not the whole thing. If you cant find a registry editing program, I think you are out of luck.
Hello,
For the past few days the (from what I gather) well-known problem of not being able to install or run an 'untrusted' application has been plaguing me. However, I've been searching here and googling around for a long time now with no result...
Been using Dutty's 5.2.19199 (WM6.1) and I really didn't change any setting! So what gives? Any ideas?Basically, how do I get the prompt back (the one during installation)?
Thanks in advance!

Check your registry settings! Use KaiserTweak or Schaps' AdvanceConfig!
Yes, I know it must be something in the registry, but what? And, I thought of Tweak and AdvanceConfig but -guess what? They're not authenticated! Argh!

If you are technical, try this: Download KaiserTweak's latest XML file and open the file in Notepad. Then see what registry key(s) is(are) modified for this tweak.
Ah now - that's a great idea! But, do you know of any PC-based registry editor, since I cannot install one on my TyTNII?
If you're really technical, you can follow through with cmonex's way found here.
If not, search for dot fred task manager, which includes a great *FREE* registry editor amongst other tools, much better than PHM Reg Editor, imo....
Whoa, thanks a bunch. I'll try the task manager first (found here, btw), but I'm not sure if I'll be able to run it either - the whole system seems VERY restricted! I'll try to make heads from tails with the instructions in the other thread. Thanks so much!
Btw, I do seem to remember a program that allowed you to edit the PPC's registry from Windows PC, anyone remember that?
Thanks again guys - much, much appreciated!
You can run the untrusted app, i.e. Advanced Conig. Just select yes. Then make the changes.
BTW, to view the xml, just Open notepad on pc & drop the xml in the notepad window.
No I can't that's my problem - it just flat refuses to run it, it doesn't give me the prompt.. that's why I'm asking for a PC-based registry editor!
Anyhow, I'll try it today and will let you know if I manage it!

Here is another PC based mobile registry editor. Simple to use and works well. Havent found any serious problems with it
Yes, I'm trying this right now
Btw, the registry setting seems to be:
HKLM\Security\Policies\Policies\0000101a
Value=1: disabled
Value=0: enabled
Desc.:Enable or disable the warning you get when opening a program that is not digitally signed

The problem with this cab (and another one I had found) is that, once the mobile goes berzerk, you can't install it because, of course, it's unsigned... Catch 22! Thanks anyway - and, by the way, superb site, added to my RSS aggregator at once!
Anyhow, I just applied the reg tweak (set to 0), reset, thing asks me to verify running unsigned start-up programs, I OK them, and then... still same problem! What the heck? There doesn't seem to be any other tweak...

It has to be set to 1 for disabling.. You set to 0?
Regards,
Carty..
Yes, I set it to 0; it was set to 1 (probably an earlier KaiserTweak session), but I actually wanted to get the prompt so that I could tell it that f*cking yes, I want to run/install the app!
Anyhow, been switching between 0 and 1 with no effect... Feel a hard reset coming on, but it's weird because I've found quite a few posts around (not necessarily here) and no solution...
Got the same problem after a white screen after hardspl, but changing the registry worked for me. Thanks, now I can try jumpspl.
So after 40 minutes of wasting time (searching how to do it) I got nothing.
Anyone know how i can make Internet Explorer the default browser? I tried and couldnt find it.. An answer is all i am looking for.
This was originally named something else, but I renamed it so I could find it again. It's buried in a thread somewhere.
Anyway, this restores the registry settings for IE and has fixed IE getting hosed a few times. By Opera, or seemingly randomly. I've had to run this at least 3 times in the last 3 months.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH.. you made my day :]
Thanks
Thanks works perfectly on my T-Mobile wing
This worked on my Fuze too. It is a big help.
Thanks,

There are cab extractors I'm sure that could be used on it, but otherwise I wouldn't have a clue, I just saved it from another thread. I couldn't find the thread, so I just attached the cab I'd saved.

Unzip it was WinRAR and have a look at the _setup.xml.
Or try a product like WinCE CAB Manager, or any other good cab creation software
Or just google, creating CAB files, there's lots of suggestions

Hi Just a question.
Can you uninstall the app once it has set IE back to the default? Will this leave IE as the default?
thanks
[thanks its working
thanks
thanks it is working
Sorry if this is a newb question. It's working with email links, but how do I change the HTC touchflo settings to make IE the browser that is invoked from the touchflo menu at the bottom of the screen? I can't seen any touchflo settings besides the thing about sounds when finger scrolling, etc.

Nice way to avoid answering his question.
Thank you, you have helped me a lot!!
I've wasting my time looking for a solution for this, as just making an association ended up in infinite loop! (this Microsoft sh*t!), but your program solved it!!!
Thank you from Spain!

This worked on my HTC Touch Pro and my HTC Touch Pro II ...Opera just isn't ready to be the default browser. Too much overhead, its just too slow (even on the Touch Pro II) and I just cant count on it for viewing web pages consistantly like I can with IE. One day I will be able to watch a YouTube video on my Windows Mobile phone ...still waiting for that day. The Droid certainly is a fast bugger and can you tube but between the keyboard and the excessive power usage ...and quite honestly lack of application support ...I am sticking with Windows for now. This little fix made my life much better. Thanks again.
Guys, this might sound really lame. But i need help. 1st time user of HTC Diamond, and im wondering how do i actually change the registry to do all those useful tweaks to make my phone better. Can anyone please help on this

I like that verb
If you don't want to pay for a registry editor, here is a highly known one that works great with the Diamond.
yeah I am new to this too so I DL that and all it to my phone and then what?
run the .cab from your device. find it with file explorer.
After it's installed, you have to find the string that you want to edit. Be sure to do a power cycle after you have edited the registry so that things stay inscribed.

Kareemba and blazeitup, i appreciate it alot on your help!! any other good tips i could use? maybe a list of tweaks that would be good for my diamond. Have not explore the entire phone, just got it couple of days back.
Appreciate it alot guys if u could help me out
all the inforamtion you will ever need is here in these forums. time will tell what you need and what you would like. im glad you have go it sorted, but im afraid you will not be able to stop experimenting now that you know how!
hahah
Yea! tell me abt it. Such a good phone., sometimes laggy, but i can live with that.
One thing that i notice, i could not set my music as my ringtone. Can it be done? I've searched high and low for it, but just couldnt get to that option. Help?
yeah you can, use the mp3 trimmer to cut your mp3 to about 30 sec and then save it to your ringtones.
FOund it! but...
FOund the bit on the ringtones. But i didnt edit it with mp3 trimmer. All i need to find out now is how to save my on alarm tone. Final help guys, i know u guys are sick and tired of replying to me., just so lame!! Damn! i hate when im not in control or know what im doing!
and...
can we set a specific ringtone for a particular contacts or groups? if so, how can we make a group contacts, i.e, work, golf etc etc
Hi to you all. I wonder if anyone could help me, as i can´t find any help on older threads. On dialer there´s a button "Note". During call, if clicked, take us to, i guess, standard WM Notes application. How can i change this shortcut to Screenwriter or Apmemo?
Thanks,
C´mon guys this is not a hard one I suppose. Or is? Regards.
Dump the M$ app and rewrite it the way you want ?

lol or look through reg @ phone settings mind you i think it's hardcoded "but could be wrong"
New htc song plays in background while placed on hold
You both are not helping at all. I read somewhere that the spirit/goal of this forum is not that kind of behavior.
I don´t need standard notes at all. I think that if i can find the executable and the parameters of the link on the button, i can replace it with a shortcut or even a mortscript.
Anyway thanks for your reply as now i know you both can´t help.
Regards.
Um so the look through the reg for phone doesn't help?
It's not going to be a .lnk and as previously stated the button will most probably be hardcoded.
Looking throu reg finds nothing also i doubt another software would follow the default format of note.
So my hunch says no you cant.
I can´t find a clue on registry. Thanks Stylez.
