Hello!
I would like to make som changes to the preinnstalled homecreen on my HTC s730, but i don't know how. I like it as it is now, but the weather service and the top ten person i would like to cut away. Somebody who know how I can do that? Is it possible to do other changes on it too?
Yeah, theres an XML file in the windows dir I believe of the phone that you can edit and make changes too, I added the most used programs under my calander while I try to find something for that contacts bit I never use.
There was another thread where people were posting pics of what they had done and had more tips, but essentially you just edit that xml. I dont recall the name for sure but it was something like HTChome.xml or something like that, not at home ATM or I would be of more use lol...
the files have the suffix .home.xml

How did you do that? When I try to find the windows folder (via active sync) It won't show up on my pc screen, but when i use the HTC i fid the folder. How come is that? I can find the folder Home, with the preinnstalled windows homescreen bur not the HTC homescreen. It seems like it's not visible(?).

Oh yea... they're hidden files... you have to enable viewing hidden files in windows explorer to see them.
What ^he said I always enable hidden file viewing every time I format so I didnt think to post it

Thanx
Now I've got another problem. Because the weather service and the top ten person is defined in the following file in reg. {B0C8Ac4B-CddC-4010-AAEB-076A2A6EB171}, but this file is just a path to another file HTCHome.dll. My problem here is that I can't find the file HTCHome.dll. I just find a bunch of HTCHome.dll files. All of them has an ending of *.mui. Like HTCHome.dll.0809.mui. and I can't open them eather. Somebody knows what to do?
And thanx for the help from everybody so far
Anybody please? I'm pretty green in this
Where are you seeing those? Are you sure your in the right section of the phones file system for the home screens?
Connect through active sync, then open "My window's based device" then go into application data, then Home and mine are all in there as .xml

I have found the file HTC.home.xls and opend it, inside the xml document I find this line of code:
<plugin clsid="{B0C8AC4B-CDDC-4010-AAEB-076A2A6EB171}" name="HTCHome" height="100" />
I have managed to fint out (at least I think so) that it is this plugin who shows the clock, the weaterservice and the top ten persons. When I found the B0C8AC4B-CDDC-4010-AAEB-076A2A6EB171} in regedit the value of this key is HTCHome.dll. When i search the whole phone for this dll file i can't find the spesific file, just a bunch of "lookalikes" like HTCHome.dll.0809.mui. This file is located in the windows directory with 5 dll files like this one, but with different numbers at the end. (ex. *.dll.041D.mui and so on). Or am I totally wrong here? Maybe it's a easier way to do this? (Make the weater service and top ten in the homescreen disappear).

Good work. Each CLSID is a different plugin. Each value nested within the CLSID is a modifier. If you want, say... the Most Recently Used items on your HTC home screen... take a look at the contents of one of the .home.xml files that has the MRU listed... and copy out the whole portion of the file that contains the information. They're even indented.

Aha, this is really good to know =)
But what to do when I want to remove something in a plug in, is that possible at all? In the plug in i talked about in my last post, there is three functions.
Number one shows the clock and makes it easier to acsess the alarm setting directly (without have to do so via configuration -> clock and alarm),
number two is the HTC Home weather service
and number three is favourite persons.
I wan't to remove the two last functions in this plug in.

It's quite possible that there is no way to only display parts of the plugin... as this function would have to be programmed into the plugin itself.
Take a look at the other plugins... like the one that shows appointments... you will see that there are portions labeled "text" which is the place where the text would be... you could... in essence... remove this part and have it not display text, but the plugin would still be present.
I hate to say it... but without HTC having programmed a solution to handle your request... you're better off using Facade.

Okai, I just have to live with it the hehe.
I have finally found out how to use fascade in i properly way. I actually don't need to use the default fascade homescreen (who by the way is quite terrible), but I can just use the plug ins. Is there by the way any clock plug in (maybe in fascade?) who makes it possible to set the alarm easy without going thru configuration? If there is, I can just remove the whole plug in in HTCHome and replace it with this.
Hi..nice to see some Homescreen-Interested guys here.
First;
The HTC-Live Homescreen-Plugin is limited to his Functions (Time,Weather,Favs) and not customizeable, there maybe a solution to edit some images like Weather-Icons or the Time-Font,thats all...not like his big Brother on HTC Touch(better to configure,two more Functions, MRU and MusicPlugin).
Sorry.
You can add and move any plugin on your Phone by editing the XML, but dont ask me for an HowTo,please...look into the other xxx.home.xml, it is really easy to customize the HomeScreen.
Some Infos:
The Plugin itself is in /Windows/HTCHome.dll, the .mui Files are LanguageFiles, you can modify and rename them to translate the plugin into your own Language, the HH_WEATHER_01-44.png and all the other HH_blabla...png files are the Images for the Clock,WeatherIcons...,
Happy editing...

Me too, I wanted to remove those two services. I took some fiddling with the xml-file and several plugins, but I managed to make something that looks quite like the Htc Home screen but has just the functionality I want.
Big other advantage is that I now suffer a lot less of the famous memory leaks.

Please post your .home.xml file!

Guys with all the talking of users trying to steal your hard work and trying to resell them, you might want to look into getting this software. and be sure to pass this on to as many users here who post pictures of the hard work.
http://tzechuen.wordpress.com/2008/04/12/adding-watermark-to-your-images-windows/
Upon launching the application, drag all your images into the white box area of the app. Choose the ‘General’ tab under ‘Convert Settings’ and choose your desired Output format (or leave it at default as jpg). Choose your output folder - this is where your watermarked images are gonna be put in.
Choose the ‘Watermark’ tab. Choose image and then Browse… and choose your watermark file. Then choose the preferred alignment (Top left,right, bottom left,right, center etc). After you’re done setting up, click the CONVERT button.Your watermarked/resized images should be in the folder that you’ve assigned the app to save in.
Hope you find much use with this tech tip

I thought I would add this here unless anyone else runs into the same problem. I broke my HTC Weather yesterday while trying to upload local cities into it. I am running the Dec 03 release of HyperDragon, but HTC Weather seems to be the same (at least in terms of files to edit) across different platforms.
After adding my local city, and uploading it back to the phone when I went into the weather tab to add a new city, I was unable to search for any cities. In fact the search screen contained no entries at all. Essentially, I corrupted the xml file, and the phone was unable to read it.
How I broke it:
Be careful what you edit with. I just opened the file with word pad in Vista to copy my new city information, but the xml file and word pad don't like each other. I found that the tilde ( ` ) <--- that character appearing over letters was unsupported in word pad. The xml file was unable to then read it. It saw it as corrupted data.
To fix it:
I just deleted the offending cities with tilde's in them. I didn't need them anyways. However, one could also just edit the file with a better program and re-upload it to the phone. Once I fixed the file, HTC Weather saw my new cities and was more than happy to read them.
Maybe someone else already went over this. I don't know. But I know I searched on the forum for quite some time without finding out what I did wrong.

The first mistake was editing an XML file with wordpad. Try using Komodo next time. Always use the proper software for certain editing functions.
Heres a link to the Freeware Komodo XML Editor.

Next time use notepad that is what i use...also the XML file is in my download section go there and download it open it in notepad and edit then move it into the windows folder...u should be good to go..
How did you manage to get adding cities to WORK?
I followed the instructions that have been posted around, but the URL fragment is NOT as displayed in those posts anymore on www.accuweather.com.
Going to htc.accuweather.com from my Kaiser gets me something that looks SOMEWHAT similar, but its not the same - if I try to use the same format that other US cities are in for mine, I can locate it in the list but it won't update.
Any help?

Aha - I screwed up. Its working now
Spoke too soon..... it KINDA works.
The currnet Manila 2D executable will go back to the top screen (the home page) if you hit the END button twice. It also will mark an incoming SMS "read" if you sit on it on the top page for a few seconds.
The patched one does neither. It will not go back to home unless you navigate there, and SMS do not get marked read.
Is the patch involved (e.g. could I go in with a hex editor and make a change to the CURRENT Manila executable?)
Update to THAT....
I took a quick look at the executables and found the change, with the different URLs. However, it appears the new one is longer than the old, which means that a quick "patch in place" is unlikely to work (I have no idea what's AFTER that block of data - and it ain't zeros, and IS apparent UTF-8 text - so I'm likely to scramble something doing a quick overwrite.)
This in turn implies that you need a way to disassemble the exe file and replace the data, then reassemble it (e.g. to assembler, at least) assuming you don't have source.
So..... anyone have a tool for this or is this a case of "have lots of fun playing with something that can disassemble it, find a clean place in the data segment to put the new reference, and fix it that way" sort of game?

yep... just rubbing it in some more
I wouldn't use notepad either. I'd rather not get into a long discussion about editing xml files with notepad either
An XML editor is definitely the way to go.
Yet another update....
What's with the app here? I patched it with a string that fits using a hex editor.
What I wind up with refuses to run. Are these apps cryptographically signed?
Answer: Yep, and once modified, the signature is no good. I don't see anything in Advanced Config that can turn that protection off either; you can disable the requirement that CABs be signed, but I don't see where you can disable the requirement that APPLICATIONS be signed. My security policy settings are such that all security is off, but attempting to run the patched executable by hand elicits a complaint about the signature being invalid. I presume that a MISSING signature would be ok, but a CORRUPT one is going to get complained about - and I have no means to fix that.
Yet more....
I have found the code-signing tools after rooting around and re-signed the application.
It still fails to work; it appears there is a SECOND call to an HTC web site in the current Manila2D code which is NOT in the other patched file.
That one goes to: http://weather.manila1.htc.com/widget/htc/forecast-data_v3.asp?locCode=
DNS shows the address is a CNAME to htc.accuweather.com, and the worse news is that the replacement string that goes in the other place doesn't fit in there - its one byte too long.
It also looks like THIS is the one being called for updates, because changing the other, direct call to the htc.accuweather.com link doesn't change anything - the codes in the file that refer to places accuweather handles still work, but those that refer to other places do not.
Any ideas?
Final Fix - Read
Ok, here's what I've accomplished.
I patched the Manila2D.exe (the CURRENT copy from HyperDragon and others) and have re-signed the code (with a self-signed cert)
I also grabbed the php script and set it up on a VERY short domain name I registered this afternoon, htcwx.org - it exists ONLY for this purpose and is NOT a generic HTC web site.
I have modified the script as necessary, and the firmware as necessary. The replacement Manila2D.exe file is attached. To implement this simply replace the Manila2D.exe in your \Windows directory on the device with the one in this ZIP file. That's it; you can then add city codes at will in the weather file list and they will work.
The previously-posted version of Manila2D.exe has a couple of bugs that I consider show-stoppers, and patching the current version necessitated having a shorter URL as one of the places required to be patched would not allow the "not2advanced" url to fit.
Note that this weather reflector is being run by me, is OPEN and will remain indefinitely; I have a very high-bandwidth connection and expect no interruption in that service. Feel free to use it.
I now have WORKING HTC weather in Manila for virtually anywhere.... and you can too without the restrictions that existed in the previous patched copy (no return to home screen with the END key, and no SMS message marking)
This script "portal" should also work with any other patched HTC Home or HTC Manila applications; the complete url is http://htcwx.org/wx.php?
Note that there is NO general content on that web site.
Enjoy!
PS: As of this instant the .ORG TLD nameservers haven't picked the domain up yet from my registrar. That's abnormal; I see it on my infrastructure but not globally. It should be globally visible by morning.
There's just one thing left to say:
Thank you!
I've been fiddling with this for quite some time, and once I've found this thread everything worked as advertised!!
Happy new year!!
Glad it works for you! Happy New Year to you as well.
Hi Genesis3,
I have installed yesterday Josh's v15 M2D Plain 3G ROM and would like to customize the Weather and add my location.
Your Manila2D.exe is 1.1 Mo where the Manila2D.exe included in this ROM is only 410 KB .... Do you think I can change the original by your's ?
Thanks
That copy is PROBABLY compressed. If it is, the strings can no longer be patched.
You need to talk to the chef and get the uncompressed EXE file - if he has it.
Packed manila2d.exe
I haven't seen anyone post about this but the compressed manila2d.exe that I have uses UPX it worked for me to both unpack and repack the file.
Look into the file for "$Info" if it say's packed with UPX the link above may work for you too. (about 350h char's in)
ENJOY!

As with everything here YMMV, make backups and if you blow it up don't blame anyone but the operator.
Hi there,
i searched the forum for a while now for a problem that every now and then pops up for me after reflashing. I'm searching for an automatic way to assign my own thumbnail graphics on the sense internet tab.
I use the manual way sometimes after flashing, but it is not satisfying me, because it takes lot of time to copy the files, rename my original files to the newly created ones and copy them back. So most of the time i don't use the icons...
Yes, i know that the pics have to be 512x512px PNG Files, and i also know that they are stored under Windows\Thumbnails .
I'm searching for where the information for the lookup of these pics (for example {2B1EE4E4-651F-D4DC-708B-DB1319CA381E}.png) is stored. I neither found it in the registry, nor in the filesystem as plain text. I copied the whole file system to my pc and did a in-file-search.
For me there are now to last possibilities where to find them:
Theyre stored as hex values in registry or in filesystem, so that a normal textsearch is useless or
theyre stored in a database file.
If someone has an idea which file it is or if theres another possibility i would be glad to hear it. It makes me crazy that we can change EVERYTHING on our wm-devices since years, but something like the bookmark icons (whch is significant for me) is so hard to find
best regards, Puckmeister
Are you looking for "Custom icons" or just a snapshot of the webpage? I know that if you save the favorite in opera 9/10 and open the favorite from inside opera (from the favorites menu) you will then see the screenshot of said favorite in sense.
Name: Notepad
About the app:
The Office app is powerful, but its syncing features slow it down. Notepad by AppsForMe is a great app to choose if you just want to take plaintext notes without the wait. It’s also the only text editor that supports folder structures, and the look of the app makes it feel like a part of the operating system (animations included). You can also pin documents or directories to the Start screen and send documents as emails or text messages.
The app has 4.6/5 stars over 48 reviews.
“Amazing app and it does what it says without any problems. Easily the best Notepad app on the marketplace and the fastest” 5/5
“Superb. You can store email and SMS templates. It makes life a lot easier. Don't miss it.” 5/5
“Very, very, very well done. Thank you.” 5/5
Developer's notes:
I'm always looking for more feedback on Notepad. Unfortunately, I don't get a huge number of support emails, so I'm left up to my own devices to figure out what could be added or needs to be changed.
Please give the application a shot. If you like it, great! If you don't, let me know what's up (in the comments). Chances are I can do something about it. Thanks for reading!
Possible future features (not guaranteed in any way, and not listed in any particular order.)
+ change keyboard theme
+ password-protect
+ lists
+ quick folders (swipe in directory view)
+ "emtpy trash" button
+ scroll sideways on long filenames
+ "import all" to parse "backup all"/"export all"

+ import from url (skydrive/dropbox)
+ "are you sure?" -> "ready to send?"

Thank you!!!
Glad you like it!
Please let me know anything about it that seems weird or cool. I do things a lot differently than all of the other text editor applications, and I want to know what's good and what's not.
Wow really good Idea ! I have searched this for Quick Notes ( i use on the PC often the Editor ) and I would use a similiar App on the Phone ...
Thank you!!! i need this for school
simple and does what it says, good app
Notepad Suggestion
First, great Notepad app. I would just like to add a password to a note file.
Thanks!
It's good to see interest in the application! Notepad just hit 15,000 downloads today, and I'm always looking to make that number higher, so the more suggestions you guys have the better.
So far I'm seeing requests for:
(1) a new live tile, particularly for pinned documents/directories
(2) change the name of the "root" directory (to what, though, I wonder?)
(3) password-protect documents
(4) implement lists as well as documents
Anyone have any other suggestions, or want to plus-one a feature?
--AppsForMe
Guess you had missed our review. Skydrive Integration and ability to send notes as attachment.
Yes, I definitely saw your review! I actually did implement two of your suggestions (preview of content when pinned, ability to move folders).
Here's how I feel about your other requests:
First, the Windows Phone operating system prevents third-party developers (read: me) from sending email attachments. Same goes for speech-to-text.
Second, as soon as you want SkyDrive, you should just be using Office. The Office app supports either (a) local files without folders, or (b) SkyDrive files with SkyDrive folders. Goodness knows that I can never match the Office app for stability, integration, features, or UI. Plus, Notepad's other sell is that it's fast--loading notes, saving notes, navigating folders--implementing web functions would slow everything wayyyy down. I see the lack of SkyDrive as a selling point.
(Side note: Office supports sending documents as attachments. Two birds with one stone!)
Notepad for WP the best
I think the requests thus far are pretty much what is missing although it seems it's going to be an uphill battle due to OS restrictions. Installed the app last week on my Lumia and it's amazing, clean and easy to use. Keep up the good work.
I used to use this app, but it had this bug where i could not scroll to the bottom of the longer note. Has that been resloved in the meantime?
Also, I think skydrive sync is important (or even dropbox). When someone changes phones, how is he going to transfer notes?
thank you i need this apps
All the problems with long notes have been fixed.
I'm going to leave the auto-syncing between SkyDrive and the phone up to the native Office application--it does it better, faster, and more reliably than I ever could.
If you need to back up your documents, use the "backup all" feature to email yourself the text of the documents.
Hi Isaac,
Great app. I registered here just to say that, and thank you. I'm a note taking person but one that wants to keep them organize and your app is the only one that does it with ease. (I must of downloaded a dozen to try and removed..only one other did folders, the rest was just one giant list of notes).
If you're serious about taking users feedback, here are some of mine...all are minor little things that are mostly ui based and these are just my opinions. I think your application here is quite impressive so take these only to help out for those you agree with..
- replace 'root' with 'home' or 'my folders' perhaps?
- replace 'Remarks' when creating a new directory with 'Note: ' or remove the word entirely and place the remark note under the text field.
- titles of Directories and Notes become all lower-cased when viewing
- clicking the back button when in Search mode hides the keyboard only, so it requires clicking the back button again to exit the search function..this may be an OS thing I've seen and not something that can be changed unless you can find a way around this.
- add a Folders button at the bottom when in a non root directory to take you back, just like how it appears when in a note to take you back to its directory.
- when in a directory, can the word Notepad and the Directory name on top take you back to the folder list view or one folder out if in a subfolder?
- possible to allow user to choose which directory(ies) to list mango-syle to the right where they can swipe to the right and to go into that directory (sorry if this is unclear, I'm not too familiar with WP terminology yet)
- Button to empty trash when viewing trash directory. btw, how does the trash work..deletes automatically after so long?
- when viewing a file that has a long filename (and the feature is turned on), can it scroll?
- reduce space between documents filenames ..currently lists 5 before needing to scroll?
- backup all..cool feature. I would change 'Are you sure?' which sounds a little scary to something like 'Ready to Send?' btw, can you import back into Notepad? If note, perhaps call the feature 'email all' instead for now..
- when creating a new note it shows 'new document', the next screen where it ask for the file name it displays 'new note' ..just a consistence thing
- are all notes saved as txt files on the device? what if you remove the .txt? does it need to be displayed if it's automatically saving them as txt files.
- Can titles of notes and directories names be the system's accent color and turn black when choosing them? ..the reverse essentially.
- when adjusting toggle sliders in Settings, the phone wants to swipe to it's neighboring page a little too freely (btw, love all the settings you have here!)
- remove the larger 'root' when in the root directory list to gain some real estate back to see more directories and so it's not repeating perhaps?
And if you need any simple graphics help, I can help out.
I'd love to see Dropbox support with everything being saved to dropbox and loaded from dropbox. I'd even pay for a dropbox enabled version.
Can it handle long text file ?
Can it import text file from skydrive?
Can we Password lock the app or folder?
thanx
First: Thanks, Lumiame, for the excellent feedback. You've greatly extended the set of features I'm considering adding, and you've noted UI inconsistencies and confusions that I'll make sure to address in the next update.
To everyone who's commented so far: thanks for the good feedback. This quarter at my university is slower than my last quarter, so I should be able to get to work on the app.
Look for a good number of changes in the next updates.
thanks for sharing
