There is an app that allows you to switch between them on the Market...not sure what it's called.
But go to Settings>Applications>Manage Applications, and go to the Home replacement you're currently using, and click "Clear Defaults". The next time you press the home button, it'll ask which one you want to use. Don't select the check mark if you want to switch often.
Hope that helps

Perfect thanks. I couldn't remember, tried searching and just couldnt' find the damn answer, knew it was easy too.

Does anyone know how to add the calendar back on to the HTC home launcher tab?
I tried searching the forums but couldn't find it.
Please don't tell me I have to do a hard reset.

I might be mistaken, but it sounds like you accidently deleted the shortcut from the launcher right?
If so just click the spot where it used to be and select it from the list again
LOL I tried that and I swear I checked the list many times but I can't find it.
I am using dutty's v4 rom btw.

If your calendar is in the start menu, you may need to uncheck it from "menus" for it to appear in the list again. or just soft reset and the HTC home app may pick it back up.
Thats always been one of my pet peeves, when you add an item under "menus" it relocates the shortcut from "programs" to the "start" menu instead of just "pinning" it to the list like any other os.
It worked. I copy the Calendar shortcut to start menu and I can select from the Launcher.
Thanks!
Hi i have a kaiser on Uk orange. the right soft key says 'Go To ...' ttry as i may i can not change it at all. i have tried FdcSoft SoftkeyAppletEx, Key swop, Advanced Config and even editing the registry at Hkey_current_user\software\microsoft\today\keys\113 (where they have two extra keys called 'mem1' and 'mem2'.) however whichever method i try the key always resets itself back to 'Go To'
Does anyone have any ideas how i can try and change it at all?
Cheers

Thats strange, I always use advanced config for that and its working like a charm.
if youur on orange chances are youve got that crappy side bar on. go to settingsstart - settings - today - go to the second tab laballed ITEMS then untick the orange item. when you go back to your today screen contacts should be on the right
Yeah that did it cant believe how long it has taken to find that out, however is there any way i can get the sidebar back (not necessarily that one but an alternate one) as its really useful to have that stuff on the screen.

About the HTC Home, no I dont have it in my corner. I have some modified Diamon style tweaked for some of the dialers but havent made a cab of it since there is floating several around in here already. I might whanna have a go skinning one if I come up whit a kewl idea though. I am working on a SPB Theme atm (well not now, vacation atm. But will continue that project once back home), after that I have planned to make a cab/guide whit a nice theme for ultimatelaunch. And I also have promised a icon pack and some animations and on top of that I am eager to get back and work whit Leo on future projects. So it is kinda tight program for hobby timeline, but if you got a certain wish you could request it in my corner and who knows what happends from there and out
cool. it was just to show edblack in the right direction
Since the born of Manila Editor, why someone (not me, I'm not able ) doesn't create a little app to restart TF3D?
It's a little bit annoying to go to start/settings/today/items to disable it and exit, then return inside to restart it.
Could be wonderfull a sort of macro to do it
Thx in advance!
Thread moved to Diamond general!
there is a free app called 'no plugins today' which if you run it once disables your today plugins, then run it again and it enables them. Seeing as TF3D is just a today plugin I don't see why this wouldnt work. Google for it.
I found some trick on Diamond by accident. If you move TF3D from left to right few times, (not sure how many, like 5-10 times) then it restarts.
Yhey... NoPluginsToday works!
Thanx a bunch bigruss!

is that a bug or what ?
I know a trick to restart your TFLO3D in a few clicks. If you have Wisbar Advance 2 installed, simply go to the control panel menu on the start menu and press 'Close all'. This will close all running programs running in the background including Manila.exe which will then re-appear.
Besides the Diamond looks a lot better with Wisbar Advance 2 and the skin of enCORe called Prot'n OB green skin, it matches with HTC green bars
With the rom I'm using at the moment pressing the end key terminates data connection while with all roms I have used previously it took me to the today screen. I've tried to find an alternate solution to get to today quickly but no luck. Is possible to alter this?

on some ROMs, you can double-press the Start Menu hardware key to return to the today screen...see if that works as a quick workaround for your purposes.
Advanced Config has the option to change keymap, under menu\more settings
Not sure if you mean pressing or holding?

The problem is that I use wisbar lite for start menu with what this doesn't work.
Any other suggestions?

Actually I wouldn't mind either pressing or holding so your idea could work if I only knew the a shortcut that takes me to the today screen.

I'm not sure but i'm sure someone else will know as the short press to home still has to invoke some file?

Well, I didn't find an answer to my original question but managed to map the today screen to a hardware button...

Anyone knows if there's an app that works with aHome, like bettercut/anycut?
and yes I did use the Search function.
Thanks
I guess it's a no then
I know bettercut doesn't and wont, they dont wanna help out the competition.
Anycut works for me
I do not think you need it. Just click on the menu button and add the app or whatever else you want. Then just press and hold down the icon and you can either delete or rename. Unless you are trying to do something else?
Bettercut and Anycut don't work for me with aHome. When I try to create a direct call shortcut it creates one in the native android home screens but not the ahome screens....I wonder if this is what the OP is talking about.
Yes, I want to make a few direct calls on the main screen with aHome, and Anycut/Better cut don't work.
You need to download Any Cut - Open Home Edition (free) for direct calls to work on aHome. I just made one right now that works perfectly fine.
BetterCut on the other hand doesn't work no matter what I do.
I use anycut with ahome...it works just fine
Longpress > Shortcuts > Anycut
You...just cant use bettercut. Its kind of sad that android developers are not in the same mindset as the general Linux community...seems they are in it only for themselves.

if they realized that they fixed bettercut to work with ahome they would make more money? uhm ahome has outsold open home by so much, there better off trying to make apps compatible with botth then try competing or they will lose money, be smart but there being dumb, i love ahome
ahome 5,000-10,000downloads
openhome cant find open home on market dunno why?!?!?!
and bettercut 1,000-5,000
lol just wanted to point that out
