Is it me, or is the custom database function of HHC for weather not working on the tilt with wm 6.1? It worked great on 6.0, but after installing 6.1 and running hhc and re-building my cities none will work when I select the custom database.(the default database cities work)
Thanks.
Just you

It's working great on my tilt, I think it's just you, where did you get your rom at?
It is not working for me either. I had used htchome-2.1-hermes-n2a on my 6.0 Tilt and it worked great. From what I can tell, the n2a is a service provided by a forum member for using custom cities. I have tried his process for patching the htc_home.dll on the 6.1 Tilt, but it did not work. My Tilt froze on reset and I had to do a hard reset.
Has anyone been successful at using all functions of HHC with the AT&T 6.1 Tilt rom?
look for HTC Home plug in. Save it to computer, drag it to your tilt.
Move it your windows file. Run HHC to put in your custom city.
Not working here either
It's not working here either. My cities show up but it won't download the weather for any of them. Luckily I have the HH_0409_WeatherCities.xml file and can at least add my city again.

The HTC home plugin workaround is linked in my signature.
Im using the ATT Rom. I would use the link in your Sig if your sig was there
the poster above was correct, the n2a version of HTC Home is a modified version that allows you to pull weather from a different source then HTC.
It's kind of crappy for AT&T to put a plugin that only works with certain cities and is not customizable by the user. I edited the HH_0409_WeatherCities.xml file to add my own city, even that won't work.
Note to AT&T... call HTC and have them add more cities to their db!
EDIT: And talk about slowing down a device... wow! I haven't used the HTC HOme plugin for a while and now I remember why I hated it. When it's updating weather, it's slow as hell....
I used the method toward the bottom of the first post from the fallowing thread to get it to work:

Hi,
Since Hermes and Wizard, alongside general information and development & hacking, are starting TouchFLO topics I created this one.
Allthough much work has to be done, at least the TouchFLO theme is available for WM 6 users. Since we don't have that I wonder if it somehow can be made available for WM 5 users like us.

The only thing working on my BA is the .tsk file for the dark theme.
The today plugin won't work because it's made for wm6 using the wm6 sdk (duh!).
UPDATE:
I got the dialer and wireless/connection manager running on my BA!
The problem that I lost all sounds/mic on my device. The connmanager works and the phone make calls. But I can't hear anything and nobody can hear me. There is no beeps from the fone or anysound from programs. The solution I've found is hard-reset. I'll keep trying.
You can download the files from this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=311225
The today plugin still not working.
Ok, the dialer works but smartdialing stops working after first call.
The problem with no sounds from the phone is with the connmanager. Do not install it unless you want your device to be totally silent.
I have installed both the Comm manager and dialer and I have no sound issues, all my sounds work fine!
same here, no problems with the sound.
I do have the smardial problem though.

Wisbar theme
Is there a black wm6 theme that will work with Wisbar 3?
I cant find one...
I will try the conn manager again (which version are you guys using?).
for the wm6 black theme for wisbar, I'm using this one: http://lakeridgesoftware.com/forum/showthread.php?t=9264
touchflo ui will never be available in WM5, also it depends on the HTC touch touscreen driver, if simeone post a hacked one it will be available on the other wm6 devices, but for now no other than HTC Touch Has it. The theme and comm manager and smartdialing work just fine with my rom (slows the device a lot but work,you can not open the options of smart dialing), home today plugin is not compatible with WM5
everyone is crazy about htc touch, if you want it that bad just buy it
also not mentioned things in touch rom are the new windows live messenger (10.6.00.28.2700) and the new arcsoft mms 4.0.31.21) IA Zip(1.20.27526.0), Smart Dialing(2.5.27526.0), Sim Manager(6.13), Sim Access Profile, Adobe Reader LE, HTC Audio Manager, HTC Audio Today Plugin, (ported them all to wm5, and will include them in my next rom or as cabs). All of you are crazy about the gui stuff (which is not working well in wm5) but forget the important things
The today plugin would be nice but not really necessary. The comm manager have a better aparence and so the dialer.
My dialer displays the options for smart dialing but the problem is after I make or receive a call smart dialing will stop working so I need so softreset it.
As for the cube flip thing I'm not interest in it.
Basically I like the gray color scheme, the way comm manager looks and the dialer. The today plugin I got a mokup working with rltoday but it was too slow to change pages as it uses mortscript to replate the rltoday config file and reload the app.

I actually sold one of my BAs march 06 and got a wizard nib. You're missing out on a lot of sweet new items on wm6.. heres a shot of the htc touch in action

I will be looking forward your next release. What I'm saying about the touch ui it's just about the colors and visuals. If it's possible to change the colors from our current conn manager and have the dial pad like the touch one (bigger keypad) that would be nice.
As far buying the "touch" it's not a possibility right now ($) and the only reason I have the BA is because a friend gave it to me.

I know it is sort of GUI, but when Helmis WM6 ROM comes out (thanks so much Helmi), will it be possible to port the actual touchFLO interface where you dont need a stylus to read email and suchlike to the BA in WM6?
thanks,
hardingt0110
When that ROM comes out the possibilities will be the same as for other devices running WM6 so search other forum sections where available touch apps are discussed. As for the stylusless inbox control I believe the hardware upgrade would be required for its proper work.

there's quite a few actually
chk out the Lakeridgesoftware website in the forums they have a skins and themes section that has qwuite a few for free download, just make sure you get a QVGA version.
Also a quick google search for "4PDA.ru wisbar" will give you a russian site that has quite a few on there that aren't on the lakeridge site, and a efw that are. =)

Is the backlight fix working fultotop? I'm asking because a while ago I tested that version of the Home Plugin and the backlight fix that was in the same thread wasn't working
Yes the backlight button works for the herald, as I changed the cab to use the correct dll file. I tested it on my own P4350.
Holy crap, the weather actually works on my device with this!
You're my hero!
weather still doesn't work
I'm using the proxy and I still don't get the weather to update. It works fine when I'm connected to the wifi.
The program is partially established in \htchome, and it is possible to make that it completely was in \windows?
@Aserg
You can either cook it into a new rom or just copy the HTCHome.dll into the windows folder, and move the contents of HTCHome into the windows folder on an existing installation.
Thanks!
I've updated the package to look for the original HTCUtil.dll as I didn't want an copy of HTCUtil.dll under the name of HTCUtil1.dll. I not included the original HTCUtil.dll it's in \OEM\OEMAPPS this way the package should work on any device with original HTCUtil.dll installed.
My thanks goto schen for the work done on the original cab.

I was using the HERALD_WM6.0_4.17.07.15.PV.ROM and after installing this, it changed the colors of my HOME, People, Weather, Music, App icon to the standard flat gray color..(smile) Well at least the weather now works,, but I did like the added color in the Rom...

Forgive the noobtivity, but does this 'fix' the weather app? My weather worked the first time I used it, but now it is always attempting to connect, to no avail.
Can I install this on the stock T-Mo Wing? Or rather, did anyone else with an unmodded wing get this to work. I installed it, it came up all nice and purty, but when I went to try and change the setting it locked my wing up tight. Had to soft reset and then wouldn't re-load after the boot. Had to uninstall it.
Yay!!! I'm not alone

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.

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.

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.

For those of you that are running the original HTC WWE rom (1.56.405.5, radio 1.27.12.11), and have the 'HTC Home' on the today screen (i.e. the big clock with weather, favorites etc.) if you click on the "Launcher" tab, then click on the "Programs" button (if you have it saved), you will see the best and fastest scrolling you ever saw in your life while in the Programs area. But if you exit the Programs area to go back to the main screen, then click on the "start" tab, then go to "Programs", everything is slow and laggy again when scrolling.
I hope I explained this correctly. Maybe some genius out there can use this information to figure out why the scrolling is excellent when going into the Programs area using the "Launcher" on the HTC Home, and use it to develop something??
P.S. I only say the original HTC rom because that is what I am using and I don't know if others are experiencing this as well.
Very, Very nice find.
I can confirm this to work for:
- Dutty's WM6.1 BUILD 5.219716
- Radio 1.64.06.04 - 25.70.40.02H
yeah your right. also works for me with original rom. indeed a nice find.
I also thought it had something to do with video drivers initially, but unfortunately, it's just a different program which is launched from HTC Home.

I think HTC Home Customizer is not working on WM6.1
after I updated to WM6.1 I installed HTC Home Customizer on my tilt and it was rebooting itself few times and than it wouldn't load Windows so I had to hard reset it to remove.
Yes it works on 6.1. You need to post your question on the forum for the ROM that you are using.
