Any way to get back the Pocket IE welcome page? - Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General

Hi all,
Just got my 2nd new Kaiser (first one had White Screen of Death) and it also has the home page as a black screen with the HTC logo; not too usefull. Any ideas how to get back the Welcome Screen that has your most recently opened pages and search? Thanks for any ideas...

Ok, well I tried just copying over the default_0409.htm file (checked and all the image files etc. were already in the Windows directory). This brings up the correct looking page, but the Favourites and History buttons don't work; they open File Explorer at the Windows directory instead!
Would be glad for any ideas for what is missing on my Kaiser that I could copy over from the Hermes.
I have attached the file if anyone would care to have a look; I searched to see if any other html pages were linked for example, but I don't know script...

I tried the same thing but no luck

*bump*
Does no one else want this start page in IE? Thanks in advance for any ideas...

bump, that page is on the Mio A501 and it's pretty neat !

Guess no one else likes that page, thanks for the bump though! I have been fiddling but still can't get it to work....

Solved ------> HTC's PIE_Default_409.htm
Okay, There are two ways to do this!!!! The first is time consuming & involves multiple registry changes. I can walk you through it or send you a registry file to import (if you wanna trust me ) or you can do it the easy way!
Easy Way: I'm sure many of you have the absolutely great proggy SK Tools. Well, the new release (4.1.21.x) has a "Replaced Rom Files" function. So either buy the great program or download the trial. Launch the "Replaced Rom Files" tool & check the box for the item marked PIE_Default_xxx.htm (xxx = your language code), either click & hold or check the box, then select action, then select "Restore Rom File". Then enjoy your new "original" HTC PIE Homepage with expandale History & Favorites!

Not sure, might help if you post a JPEG of the screen? The TXT file you included does not work for me.

I just put together a cab file for this today using some files posted by another xda member (I don't remember who it was to credit them).

DANG IT YOU DOG! I jumped the gun on my post! I spent the last week flashing back & digging to find all the references that kept me from changing the by just importing the default_xxx.htm. I finished my cab & logged back in to post it & darn it all if you hadn't beat me to it!

LOL. It's pretty simple to correct with all the correct files. I actually just copied the files to my Windows directory when I first tried it out but figured I'd post a cab file to make it easier on everyone else

thanks for sharing, works fine on the Nike too.

Hi,
I tried running the CAB on my stock Orange HTC ROM, but I still get the orange homepage, not the (more useful) Internet Explorer page as promised above! Any ideas?

Your folder structure must be different. Did you soft reset after install? Otherwise you can do it with SK Tools if it was part of the original ROM.

I did soft reset, but no joy. I may look into SK Tools, although I have just managed to get Opera Mini up and running, so may play around with that instead. Thanks for the advice!

You can go into PIE under Menu, Tools, Options, and see the path and filename for your current homepage. It's possible that Orange uses a different filename as the default page. If you tell me what the filename is and where it's located I can make an updated cab for you.

Here you go. This file is for devices with the Orange ROM only!
You can uninstall the old one first.

Are you guys able to browse with PIE while on 3.5G/HSDPA?
After I open PIE, I receive this same screen on my Tilt, but I'm unable to browse anywhere (my hsdpa account is activated, of course).
I receive (in the bottom left corner) a message: "connecting", but nothing happens.
On the other hand, If I browse with WIFI on, using PIE, I can enter any URL without any problems at all.
In both cases, I can send & receive emails without any problems.
Any ideas?
Thanks.

As I replied to your other post, check your proxy settings. Which data plan do you have? Are you connecting to WAP or ISP?

FTouchFlocube complete

i found this file in trinity forum. it works perfectly. some of it is in french and some of it is in english. can someone help to clean up.
it is the complete cab including ftouchflo, schaps config, and cube all in one cab file. just install and use.
woow, does it work on any Device ??
I installed it, nothing shows up in the today screen. I've tried to play around to make the cube show but nothing happens.
it works on my tilt. to use cube start right above th middle of the bottom task bar and go quickly to the middle of the screen. if this doesn't work then start from one side and go across to the other side quickly.
also configure ftouchflo from 100 timeout to 200 and gesture waiting delay from 10000 to 700 and try the above it will work.
i have an at&t 8525 and tilt it works on both devices.

Nice it work after I configure it.
EDIT: Anyway to change it from Spanish to English?
Yup - works for me too. Nice work.
The language change doesn't bother me so much.. silly question - where to you change the settings though?
EDIT: scrub that, found it in a strange named folder in programs

Haha yeah herramientas mean Tools in Spanish.
I had to remove this program because it was messing up with the slide 2 unlock program.
Sensational find, well done
The program works great and has a huge coolness index factor....
I tried to set the photos to open a file in the storage card and would not do it. Is it limited to opening files that are only in the device memory? Can it address files in the sorage card?
Nice program overall.

Well, just un-installed the Spanish version and installed this. Appears to work perfectly, I can't see any problems at the moment. I had to rename the FTouchFlo folder so that the configuration tool would work but other than that this was too easy.
First class work!!
go into config cube and all word editing done from there.

Hi,
just one question: does the TouchFLO CUBE work on the TYTN II ?
I heard that on Tytn II it needs a cooked ROM not just a sw on top of already installe TouchFLO.
Could somebody tell me something ?
Thanks in advance
works perfectly after configuring it, gotta get use to the spanish though but i guess im taking it as a humor thing LOL
hi i have problem with the ftouchflo after installing it .....
i do have a problem with the text on mine, i mean in office words and messaging,
I cant select the text (that is to use stylus click drag a paragraph of text) to be copy and paste or something like that.......... i cannot select the whole text...maybe u can help me?? this applies in excel,words, messaging, notes, task ...but in appointment i can select a few text.......................also in resco explorer, normally i can click drag and select a few files to multiple delete (and no i dont wanna use the multi seelect, its extra buttons..)
and btw i have added all the above mentioned files intothe config for exclusion of scrolling and stuffs..........so maybe u can help me? thanx alot
I think the touchcube thing is cool, but i would rather it only works on the homescreen, its just annoying anytime else, when trying to do daily activities and you bring up the cube or minimize the program. can this be done?
i hope you guys wont shoot me on the 26th of december. but i cant install this cube cab :]
I have a dutch vario III so instead of the folder "program files" i have the folder
"programmabestanden". I copied all the important folders (config and cube) to "Program Files" but still i get the error: cant find the config file.
I even read the config.txt. file through windows and changed the link also to ..\Program Files\.. but nothing happens.
Can someone help me with this annoying situation?

Batch fixing 'First Last' <-> 'Last, First' saving manner in contacts

There is possibility to change manner of saving contact name to 'First Last' <-> 'Last, First' etc. in each of the contacts separately. But I'm looking for a solution how to do it on all contacts at once, but without using Outlook or any other computer software (directly in the device).
Thanks in advance for any suggestions...
Please search the forum, I am sure I answered this questuon about a year ago. It involves downloading a few cab files, which give you that option in the context menu. I no longer have the files ( did not need them), but there is still a link floating around here somewhere.

But not tested yet. Paul from MoDaCo also suggested using WebIS Toolbox for that.
Those are the .cab files I meant. Install them on your device, then select all your contacts (there is a separate .cab for that as well, not available in that thread, you have to search for it, it provides an option in your context menu) and then bring up your context menu. Then select the way you want to store your contacts. Worked on my Hermes, not tested on my kaiser

'Select all contacts' would be the secret then, as it's not possible to select multiple contacts by default...
Correct, but I found a .cab file around that period that makes it possible. It only works once though, after selecting all contacts once, only a soft reset would enable you to do it again, some kinda bug I think. But that file was posted here at xda or at modaco, it worked for me.
check out this tool @ http://www.shubaroo.com/index.php?module=contact. it's worked for me without issue...

Thanks - it looks very promising, and I'll test it later in the evening
You need no .cabs to change the way the contact names are displayed on your WM6 Kaiser. Just select a contact and select edit then scroll down till you come accross "File as" click the drop down box and this will give you several options by which to list your contact. For example: John Smith, Smith John or Company Name (Even By Nickname). Try this out.. And hope it helps.
Yeah, sorry read your question wrong...Sorry don't think there is a built in option to change whole list at once. Better stick to those .cabs

How to change the main menu soft button?

Hi,
I have a Treo 750v (Vodafone version) which like what it's box said it is meant for email solution, that's why the left soft menu of the Today screen menu is set to Email.
Anyone know how to change this?
Thanks, appriciate your share of knowledge!
I forgot the details but this i know as much
You have to download the register editor program. Search around the registry is all the same when it comes to changing soft key for all WM phones.
The only problem with the Treo 750 is when you change the softkey from email to something else it ends up adding an extra short cut. So in essence you are not overwriting that key, all you are doing is adding an extra feature on top of the existing email button.
Maybe someone had better success than I did can chime in
Using a registry editor, navigate to Hkey_Current_User/Software/Microsoft/Today/Keys/112
Change all 3 values to reflect your new function

It's all because Palm plugins - they overlay it. If you disable Active Call (or Dial Lookup?) you can have native-windows softkeys. It was all described in instructions how to ged back default dialpad.
i just downloaded the soft key changer that i found on here i think it was in the hermes section and copied it to my windows folder... after i did that it shows up in my settings and i can change both soft keys to what i want
was it:
"FdcSoft SoftkeyAppletEx.cab"

How to make IE default browser.

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.

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

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.

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.

Phantom Mailbox in Touchflo - How to remove?

Hi there,
using a touch Diamond and some time ago went through a ROM upgrade and used Sprite Backup.
On the messagign screen I now have some phantom mail boxes on the right hand side. If you click on the envelope it will come up saying "no Messages". If you then click on inbox it will take you to the Select an Account screen (as the selected account doesn't actually exist)
If you go through to the Windows Mobile interface you can only see the current mailboxes which are configured.
I have looked into the option of creating a new backup and hard reset and restore without the mail and configure all over again but would like to avoid this as I have found in the past this leaves me with duplicate records (due to sycing with multiple machines).
I am looking to find where I need to go to remove the phantom mailboxes. Looking around I am assuming there must be some configuration files or registry elements for TouchFlo which tells it to display the folders.
Does anyone know where this information is to edit or delete? All ideas are welcome and encouraged.
Thanks in advance
