Question about program shortcuts on starting screen - Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, i got the original WM 6.5.
I was wondering if you guys could tell me how i can get 3 or 4 program shortcuts on my 'main' screen. All i have now is my calendar items and blank.
Its like this screenshow:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Can i fix it with an app or do i need a complete new ROM?
Thanks in advance,
Curu

I guess you need a custom (or cooked) ROM with Sense (or Manila) v2.5. Look for them in the related section and, for your device safety, read carefully the sticky threads about flashing a new ROM. Since you have an original ROM, I assume you will need to start by installing HardSPL 1.83 before you do anything alse.

thx, i have had cooked ROMS before, i know how to flash it.
Was just hoping i could achieve the shortcuts without having to actually flash.

Hi,
Try to look at thread 618839.

Uhm, maybe I'm missing something here but you just click the empty box to add a shortcut....

I want to have the 3 or 4 quick links on "Today's" screen.
Is there any other way I can do without having to flash any other "Custom ROMs" since I am happy with the stock ROM.
I'm afraid I will missed the "Touch Diamond 2 and HTC" welcome screen during boot up if I flash other Custom ROMs.
I thank in advance to those who can shed some light with .cab file etc.....

Go to Settings\System\Device Info\Software Info and determine your manila version.
Then go here and figure out which version for your manila.
Read the first few posts that will tell you the functions.
You can add 12\16\20 shortcuts on home screen as shown below.

Only Manila 2.5 have shortcuts on homescreen. and I believe Stock Rom only has Manila 2.1. If you want the shortcuts, you'll need to flash your rom

See original post, he is on stock 6.5

Or you can install this nice Cookie home tab and can choose 3, 4, 5 shortcuts and much more interesting

6.5 is the WM version. The Manila version is different. I got stock 6.5 but my Manila is 2.1 coz the company is so cheap that it want to hold it for future phones.

I used this cab: Vovichek&Jamrecords_16Shortcuts.cab from XDA. but i have Manila 2.5 so check if it is compatible with 2.1 it gives 16 short cuts on the home screen 4x4

I just installed your newest. They look great.
What program do you use, I want to slightly edit the loading screen.
Photoshop CS2 is used for all of them...
again, nice work!
gradient colors between screens are great!
but, maybe you can use smaller and different font... or without any... yust win logo...
As requested... here it is.
You are great!
Tnx!
p.s.
I will later flash this because i dont have USB cable here, bat I know this is right one...
Noob question... how do I go about installing these? I'm running Crossbow Reloaded v1.5.

Just pull down the zip file and it should have an RUU in it. you run that and it will flash these onto your phone. Your OS and apps will not be affected since its a Splash only update. The 3rd screen will be in a CAB (or its a png you just copy to the WIndows directory, I haven't looked to see how he set it up).
Just like mfrazzz said, and the third screen is a cab file, just install it like you would a program.

Hey guys got the second part to work flawlessly...followed the instructions but couldn't get the RUU to work I keep getting an error 222 that it couldn't verify the connection to my phone.
I have an HTC tilt with SPB Mobile Shell.
Any help or ideas?
Hi there,
i am also having the same issue i get an error 222 device not responding, i have an htc titan.
Any ideas?
I have an htc titan, and am having the same issue,
I get the device error 222 any ideas?
Thx It looks very cool
Newbie question here:
How can I extract the pics to edit them and then recombine them.
Do I need a cab unpacker?
I'm also having the error when trying to run the included RUU to install these. I wonder if it may have to do with whether one's phone is unlocked or not? I installed WM6.5 using SoftSPL so didn't have to unlock my T-Mobile MDA. I wonder if there's a way to install these awesome gradient splash images using SoftSPL?

Touch of Blue

For some reason I have gotten many request from ppl (specially from Elf/Touch ppl) to release the blue graphics I used in one of my earlier Touch-IT roms.. (Found here)
All but one is Grapics only, you must replace the ones in your favourite oem build
It contains:
Cube - blue
Touch Dialer - blue
WMP skin (is added as a OEM package) -blue
Audiomanager - blue
CommManager 12b - blue
Feel free to use any of it Just put in a note where you got it
cheers
I've created INSTALL CABS for each individual Skin/program. Just copy over to phone and run.

updated first post with a link to the rom
omg, matches my Wing body color perfectly! thanks!
Uh, maybe a dumb question, but how do I install this? I would sit down and try to figure it out myself but theres lots of files to move and moving files around on this phone can take lots of time if you have to mess with the Windows folder.
Thanks
i don't understand how i can use this... any help please? thanks
copy the files to windows dir using total commander
but mostly its for cooking
So if I just copy all the files there, my stuff turns blue?

not comm manager, the comm used in my latest rom is diffrent.
but basicly yes, remember to soft reset
ITJE, This is great, thanks....
Now my Touch is getting a touch of the Blue's.
I've ceated installation Cabs for these files to make it a bit easier to copy over the phone and added them to my post.
here's the INSTALL CABS
I have packaged them separately, you can install only the ones you want... and since ITJE mentioned the comm mgr was different, I wouldn't reccommend installing the Comm mgr Cab.
Just copy the one's you want over to your phone and run them.

Help with start menu...so lost

Hello I recently bought a Htc tilt, and it came modified with dutty's dual touch, I decided to upgrade to Dutty's Official WM6.1 5.2.19400 Release today, everything went through fine with doing the upgrade, however, when I press the windows start menu and want to click on programs and scroll through the list the only way for me to view the programs is to go through file explorer, which is extremely annoying. I have tried to surf around and read on any way to fix this but have had no luck, if anyone can help me I would truly appreciate it. Actually I also can not use quickgps anymore.
Thanks

Flash back to the OEM ROM and start over.
Sorry but where do i get this OEM rom, and how will I know that it is the right one to flash with?
Thanks for the reply btw
All of your answers can be found here. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=369282 click on shipped ROMs Wiki....
Thanks so much I really appreciate your help. One last question, after I revert back to the oem rom, will it relock my phone?
go back to OEM and then use Hard-Spl again , reflash new ROM again. (example: dutties, etc)
I have tried to use an oem rom, then flashed with Hardspl, and then flashed with new rom, and still no luck. I tried a few times, and still no luck. I am not sure what to do...
Thanks again for the help.
whoa......flashing a whole new rom just to fix this issue?
the reason you are browsing through your programs through a "file explorer" as you say, is because that's how wm works. if you dont want to do that, then get an application that adds a cascading start menu, like quickmenu or wisbar lite
I really appreciate the help, I really hope this will solve my issue. Just so that I can be clear does cascading start menu refer to when you press the windows key, scroll down to programs or my documents and basically a list pop's up and allows you to scroll through the list of whatever is in the the respective folder? I wish I knew how to explain this better. Again thanks to everyone for the help.
If you're trying to have a menu like Windows classic menu like so:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Then you could use QuickMenu.

You have the iolite ROM? I'll help you dump it if you share it.
If you're referring to the new imgfstools, they work on the above referenced ROMs. Well, I've only tested it on the touch-it and 3lit3 ROMs, as I wasn't interested in udk's.
I think these were made with the new build tools from bepe.

I had no issues so far with it. So I cannot tell what is your problem. And if others are having the same problem.
I am still looking for the original icons, it's a pain to make them myself.
how is that that when i copied this stuff into the windows folder i got an analog and a digital clock too????
HD2 icons
Good effort. The manila 2.5 icons are around but they don't fit into the slider bar.
