I noticed on the Hermes page there is a HTC Home version 2.1 available for the Hermes that has been patched.
Is this available for the Kaiser? Noticed for a number of them it states uninstall previous version, but I dont really have the option to on my Vario 3.
I would like to know this too. Is there any info about it?
It works just fine.
So installing 2.1 the hermes version from:

then you won't get much, everything here is ripped from other roms and updated to fix bugs or enhance the original design. The original HTC Home had many issues such as weather was only for Euorpe, the email link never opened the correct folder, it would jsut open whatever was last opened, and there were other issues too. Someone fixed those issues, repackaged, and posted here. HTC HOme 2.1 fixed the weather app to allow any city to be added to the weather XML file.
Note: HTC Home is an offical release, but slightly modify in ver 2.1 with help from some of the users here.
I dont know what I would do without the "self made junk" it all works fantastically!
Well I will be looking to install 2.1 tomorrow over my vario 3 htc home 1.5.
Hey, I have a novel idea, lets all show up, start posting, and insult the developers and cookers here (who absolutely kick the arses of the OEM developers) and accuse their intense and brilliant efforts as being "home made junk".
I bet we get A LOT of good advice and help!
ALL ABOARD!!!!!!!!!!
Ok. lets not fight.
Does it or Doesnt it work for the Kaiser. Has anyone installed and tested it?
Does it work properly? are there any delays (processing wise)?
Does it actually make a difference, do you see and feel a difference?
Would you recommend it?

Thanks for your answer
Aye it does work, god bless the cookers!
So, which one do you intall on a kaiser?
1. Install on HTCHome Dir and With Brghtnes Fix for Hermes
or
2. Install on HTCHome with NO Brightness Fix
in my Kaiser Home 2.1 wil not install. Certificate Error or deny permission is the "error code".
Both on phone memory and Storage card
HELP!!!!
help needed, i have broken my htc touch phone...
first i downloaded the htc home v2.1 hermes cab and installed it , which all went fine but then i noticed that the brightness tab was working so i went and downloaded HTC Home v2.1 Directory And Brightness Fix and thats when things went really bad.
my phone rebooted and the screen turned off. when i plugged it into the pc after a timeout the screen came back on but if i touch it instead of getting brighter it turns off until it timesout again.
i un-installed both versions via the pc (although the UI didnt go back to the old 3 button tab home screen - still has 6)
this time a little better , screen does turn off when i touch it but it doesn't turn on either when i push the on button at the top until after the timeout.
dont know what to do now?

No idea what you did. Just back everything up without touching the screen and perform a hard reset. Hopefully you have an automatic installer when rom boots back to its original state.
can some1 test if igo8 is working nog with this home version?

This home version is probably cooked in the rom you're using.

hey guys, i flashed one of the WM 6.1 roms, didnt like it, so i re-flashed duttys #7b rom. was working perfectly before, however i now have two problems
1- this is the major one, the gps doesnt work! when i open up quick gps, it scans through all the ports and doesnt find anything. however, when its scanning com4, the gps light comes on, but doesnt find anything. i've tried setting it to com4 only and put the baud at 4800 and 9600 and still doesnt find the gps....whats going??
2- this is a more minor problem, just annoying really.. i got this annoying thing on my home screen (look at arrows), it hides part of the home screen, how do i get rid of this? thanks
omar
1) Dont forget to reflash your old radio also.
2) Decrease font size in settings->screen->font
hey, i did reflash my old radio... but why would that even make a difference.. gps doesnt use the radio?
and i decreased the font size, still there.. however i definately didnt have that there before even with the font size the way it is.. and the thing is, even when theres not that much stuff on the screen its still there, ie, look at this picture

Don't have a Kaiser yet, but I've been running the HTC Home plug in on an emulator and I've see issue #2. Try this:
1.) Install HTC Home Customizer (linked to in one of the CAB stickies in this forum)
2.) Run the HTC Home Customizer and go to the Options tab.
3.) Make sure the "Lock plugin on Today screen" box is CHECKED.
Now, when it's checked you'll notice the scroll bar may still show up on the bottom of the screen. This is likely because something on the bottom half of the screen is flooding below the visible screen area. If it's still there, try removing that bottom plug in temporarily. If the bar goes away, you know something in that plug-in is creating the issue.
heya
im after a program, or mod or something that will show me the time on the phone when its locked and the screen is in screen saver mode without having to unlock it.
i have spb time installed, but even thou i have selected the time to be displayed as a screen saver, it doesnt show it unless the phone is connected via usb.
if its not connected, it wont show it.
if this option does exist within the htc original firmware then i havent found it.
im running latest original rom
2.03.707.2 WWE
model: P3700
can anybody suggest some options?
thanks!

a friend of mine used this one for his XPeria
http://www.freewarepocketpc.net/ppc-download-s2u2-v1-01.html
it worked fine and it looked good
yeah i got that crankin now, its pretty cool app
so much better, i was getting annoyed typing in my password everytime to unlock the phone
when the phone is not in use and the screen shuts off, still cant see the time, need to press the button to wake the screen up...
hard to explain, the only comparison i can think of is that when i had my SE k800i, when it was in standby mode/locked and not in use, the screen would still display the time.
that version aboveis soooo old. it's now v1.45 that you guys can get here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=464695
yeah, i know what you mean with your SE. the nokias has it as well. i think for our devices, it's better to have the screen off & save battery life. AFAIK, all pdas/pda phones screens are off if not used. not too sure of smartphones?
yeah i downloaded the latest ver...1.45
works really well
thanks for the info
Unless you are using bigger battery (2000mAh) you will be back to the switch-off screen.. Just a matter of time...
Screen turned on (even dimmed) consumes A LOT more power than a phone on standby.
heheh i thought it was a old version... but it was the only version i could find atm
When the device wakes up from standby it goes to the TF3D home screen, even when in a call and you need to you the 'people centric' shortcuts that HTC boast about. So when you turn your screen on during a call you have to press the small green button to take you off of the home screen and back to the call screen.... most annoying
Is there anyway around this, I have had a quick search but mostly this issue relates to the old TF3D and there does not seem to many answers.
Please help
I just tested this for you. Whilst in a call I turned off the screen and then back on again. It resumed to the call screen and not the TF3D screen as you suggest. Sorry, I have no explanation for you.
The behaviour may be different if it times out to the standby mode (whilst in a call), rather than you pressing the button.
It mainly does it when you slide the slider down and then turn off the screen and turn it on.
The other main problem is say your in MS word and the screen goes off it takes you back to the home and you have to go back to word to carry on what you were doing, has anyone managed to disable this action i was wondering if it was a registry entry but i cant seem to find any thing
Does this not annoy anyone else?

As annoying as on the D1 it is , but some existing tweaks might help disable screen off.
I still need to change my D1 to D2 in the next days but will become (again) a participating member here going untill 6.5.1 with this one
Iphone had me captured for a few months, but despite the tortures given, I refrain back to PDA & HTC

I don't have my TD2 in yet but is there not the TaskManager Icon on the left top of the taskbar?
You could just click on that then on (for example) MW to get back to it instead of going back to programs and opening it. It is a pain sometimes.
Is there not an option that disables it going to the Homescreen? IDK....Just throwing things out there.
IIRC on my Elfin when I was running Touch Flo 2D, I think I had M2DC, but coud set it to go to main screen after the screen went off or stay where it was. On Onyx 6.5 rom for the Elfin after the screen locks I am back to whatever screen I was in.
There will probably a fix for this anyway.
Edit - I had a thought. If you use the Locking App I use (CAB below) there is an option where you can check if the today screen is shown after lock. Mebe if you install this and un-check that setting it will no longer jump to TF and stay in the program you were in.
If you try it let us know.
Well, some more "problems":
* remove the back for a softreset
* remove the bk for the storage card
* no d-pad
On all other aspects: better than the D1!
(and even nicer...)

Removing the Cover to soft reset will be a pain but there are programs for the like psShutXP. (not sure how it looks/works on the D2 seeing it's wvga)
I really don't see in haveing to remove the back cover for an SD card is a problem. How many times do you really need to remove it? Especially since you can throw in a 16GB card and call it good. I have to remove the back cover on the Elfin even though the card is on the side.
No D-pad will essentially be a little bump but I am hoping the screen is big enough. With the 6.5 Rom I've been using on the Elfin I hardly use it unless I feel lazy to touch.

Ah I see.... I didn't see the "" when reading..... LOL..... I just get a little frustrated when I hear about the SD card being under the cover. So many reviews online have mentioned it and it's perfectly fine. Allows for less moving parts. The door on my elfin is rather chipped from opening it so many times. I mean atleast it's not under tha battery like some phones I've owned.

Hey there i was hoping some one could help me out. I have 2 things
1.) The Battery Icon on the top bar does not update at all. It just shows a full charge no matter how much charge my phone has, When I plug it in it doesn't change to charging either. If I go to battery properties I then can see how much charge my phone has. Anyone encountered this?
2.)2 buttons on my key board are reversed. The 2 Fn Blue buttons "!" and "@" are reversed, how do I change those?

It is also addressed in the faqs on the first page of the rom. Why people throw their phone in to the fire with out even spending 5 min to read the faqs is still beyond me. I have flashed my phone well over a hundred times and I still read the entire first page of any new rom I am flashing, to see what I am getting into with my $500 phone.
As far as the taskbar icons go, could be a bad flash, could just be a phone hiccup, no one else has had that problem with the rom. Try a hard reset or reflash the rom.
Thanks for the fast responses! I totally missed the keyboard fix on the FAQ, I got everything else (including the Radio from the FAQ) but that slipped by me.
now I am still new at tweaking my phone so will a hard reset restore all my setting and I will have reinstall all my programs I downloaded?
Just Figured out a Hard Reset will Erase all my Data. So no one else has had this problem...hhmmmm... It has to be one of the programs I installed, Maybe if I uninstall them 1 at a time ...... anyone else got any Ideas?
hey i just bought a x1 and it has a keyboard issue.. when i slide it open the screen doesn't rotate and it kinda freezes, whatever buttons i push doesn't do anything. once i slide it closed everything i pushed happens.. it originally had the pure upgrade wm6.5 rom on it when i bought it. i tried installing different roms - barebones,stock rom,826x and none has fixed the keyboard issue. what can i do?
Nothing I guess, except trying another rom; every device (other than xperia) has some problems with some roms. I heard Energy is the best you can get.
hey thanks for your response. ill try installing this energy rom and hope it can fix it
ur flexible cable wasted..go get it replaced at service centre.
Ho I'm sorry, I thought you said none other rom had this problem, misread...
Will this be a free repair from Sony or about how much should I be looking to spend $
if your under warranty then of course its free!
also make sure you flash a stock rom, then flash the stock-SPL back, otherwise they won't fix it.
in indonesia about US$50-$75
ok sounds good. i think i flashed it back to stock and stock spl is there a way to make sure?
go into the tri colour bootloader screen
and it shouldnt say OliNex anymore
and it should say 0.72.0000
and obviously the stock rom is easy enough to recognise
