How can i hack/modify the HTC home plugin? - Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General

I've already found how to change the order of tabs (and which tabs), by changing a registry key.
Does anyone know/remember how i can change the music tab from linking to WMP instead of the (horrible) audiomanager ?
Tips very much appreciated...

Tell more about that registry keys...

Maybe you can try this :

And let us know if it is working fine

Thanks my friend, it's fine...

Thanks....this works great !

Got amazing results for myself, very happy. Thanks for the work.

Here is what I got:
Removed the 5th tab, didn't use it
Changed the clock to something much more modern
Weather now works ok for me. had a problem before, probably because of the Hebrew Add On.

Nice ...
However, is it possible to reduce the height of the clock?
Because in my opinion, it is TOO BIG ! ... I prefer to add more space for the appointments, tasks, etc ...
Also, is it possible to DUPLICATE the program shortcut tab ?

I agree with the first request. I also do not think the clock should be so big. Don't know if there is an answer, I think it is part of the design.

Third! on the size of the clock
When you only have a couple of inches of screen real estate its ridiculous to have a clock you can read from 3 miles!

yeah, the clock is WAY too big.

I was thinking the same about the clock. I think they overdid it, especially while in landscape mode. Blocks the whole screen

I'd love to get rid of the clock. I like LVM better. Also is there a way to unpin the plugin?

Look at post #3 at the top of this thread

That HTC customizer app is pretty handy. It allowed me to unpin the plugin so now the clock size isnt really a isue. Thanks.

There is free software namely HTC Home Cuztomizer, may be it can help to customize all appearance in HTC Home plugin. To change the style of clock is absolutely possible but I like big clock, so I don't try to make it into small size

You can disable the seconds from showing on Pocket Digital Clock
i think he is talking about the "Tempus" clock referred earlier, not PDC
you can try rlToday, it works, but it takes a bit of custimzing and there's no fancy animations. but it looks good still!
attached is how mines look.
Battery status
I find Battery status advaced and it is perfect!!!!
You can put the hhc image for htc home and the result is the same!!!
Now i have a htc home diamond customization clock without the other line.

Change crappy TouchFlo 'blocks' bacground

Hey guys, lots of great packages here but the one thing I really want to change/get rid off is those crappy blocks which are used in the touch flow background.
You know the ones, the crappy ones which fade into the horizon that look like something from Tron
They look terrible and it seems you can only replace the home area with a background image.
Do any of the packages here allow you to change this?

guess the only way to do that is to change the theme using touch flo 3d config
anyone have a solution for this. as much as i like the blocks i want to change me to the same wall paper as my home page.
Please, i want to change that ugly wallpaper too... Touch flow 3d config "themes change" don't work for that.
I agree. Since ive changed to the Official HTC WWE 1.93 rom with .5 radio (better signal now, thanks for that!) I cannot change the background at all. In SETTINGS and TODAY the background image has been selected by clicking on BROWSE yet nothing is displayed.

You CAN change the Wallpaper on the homescreen by SLIDING to the SETTINGS Tab on the TF3D.
There is an option Wallpaper. This will change the Wallpaper on the HOMESCREEN only (unfortunately) and not on the other tabs
The BACK GROUND with in the Settings and Today menu doesn't apply to the wallpaper.
All the best.

I find it hard to believe no one has made an app to make the wallpaper apply to all tabs....why did HTC make it like this? Weird....
Im suprised as well. Changing the home page is nice, but i would like the rest of my tabs to look ince too.
still nothing?
can this really be that complex?
Have patience. There are people who are preparing Manilla editors.

Just because you have no clue about how to do this doesn't meant it's a good idea to insult peoples intelligence by implying its simple and they should have done it already. The reason it's not been done yet is not because theres no want, but because devs must first understand fully how Manilla operates, it's not exactly documented in a nice fancy API.

Countdown days until event

I found this app while looking for something that could show me how many days are left until a family member was in town and it works great on my Tilt. Thought others would find it useful as well.
It's called Zimmermann T- Day Counter Plus! Edition
-Countdown is displayed on your Today Screen
-Multiple events can be added at once
-Different icons for each event
TimeRule 1.2 is similar with more options and several simultaneous countdowns. http://www.megasoft2000.com/product.php?division=ppc&product=TimeRule

Awesome, thanks. I'll have to give that a try and see which one I like better. So far the app that I found does what I need it to do for now, but it looks like this other program will give me more options.
The clock on your homescreen is not HTC Home is it? Looks good, somewhat smaller leaving more room voor other apps, care to elaborate?
Nice app btw. Thanks for sharing.

The clock on my Today screen is Phonealarm and I'm using the Favour8 skin. This is my favorite skin so far, but I did have to make some modifications so that it would work in landscape mode (I'm actually using a different skin all together when it switches to landscape).
And I am trying out the TimeRule app that was recommended and it does provide more detailed information for when the event will take place. So far I like it.
