More than likely your city isn't listed in the HTC Weather section. Use HTC Home Customizer to fix that, and many more things about the HTC Home. If you need more help just shoot me a Private Messege. I dont mind helping.
@Reef - I've tried what you suggested but no change to the screen at all. The original icons appear on the left with no additions
@grandpareza - many thanks, pm on it's way.
I'm moving this thread to the regular Kaiser forum as it's not what we class as upgrading/development.

It seems to have installed just fine. but my mms, IE does not work. Its seems that my 3g data is having issues. I'm a USA T-mobile user. Anyone know how to fix this?

Ditto! Flashed my HD2 (T-Mobile Uk) and got the same issues. 3G wouldn't work at all, so no apps requiring data worked. Gave up in the end and flashed back to Android.
I did see a post about someone suggesting adding a new APN in the settings, but leaving the details blank (i.e. username and password) and just putting apn in the address, but I never tried it.
Thx iBimmer!!! I will do it right now and let you know how it turned out =)
Please help. I'm still having problems getting to install the XAP files. Any links or tutorials on how to use them?
The Deploying status just says preparing and hangs there. What am I doing wrong.?
Make sure your phone is unlocked (not at lock screen). Best is when you install XAP's to have the lockscreen setting to never.
Did you read the thread about Windows Desktop Marketplace?
You need to install Microsoft .NET Framework 4 and Windows Phone SDK on your PC.
I was missing Windows Phone SDK . HTC connection setup install and updated. i will try and use 3g now . Crossing my fingers
Ok got the XAP files installed, very easy once sdk was on my pc. I'm still have data connection issues. Does anyone know the manual setting for US Tmobile? or am I doing soething else wrong or need to do something else?
That's weird. I was trying to fix mine with editing APN settings and it didn't do it. Running Connection setup fixed it.
These are the settings that I have working on my iPhone: wap.voicestream.com, leave username and password blank.

I'm not sure what is required for the APN but I had the same problem and typed in "T-Mobile US" and saved it. It immediately started working.

Unhide MMS settings on Lumia Icon after Denim
AR2186 said:
Ok, I was able to get it to work using a modified version of the Windows 10TP for non-supported devices work-around. I edited the WPFlights.xml file to replace the "enable tethering" with "Unhide MMS APN". I am now up and running with on AT&T with my Lumia Icon (also tested/working on HTC One M8 for Windows from Verizon).
If you want to do this on your phone, basically follow the instructions here HOWTO: Install Windows 10 for Phones on Non-supported devices (and other hacks) but replace the WPFlights.xml with the one I have attached. One heads up, I had to install the full version of Fiddler and enable HTTPS before I could install the certificate
Warning: This could brick your phone, so use it at your own risk.
Thanks @RustyGrom r the awesome work you did on the workaround, this is a very powerful tool. Thanks @AlvinPhilemon for the help finding the registry location

Is it possible to edit the APN settings without making other registry changes? I'm not interested in forcing the Windows 10 TP, but NEED MMS to work! Thanks

Yes, I should have clarified I AM NOT running the Windows 10TP on my Lumia Icon. I only used the method for the inherited permissions so I could write to the registry.
I actually couldn't get this working in Windows 10 TP, only on Windows 8.1 on a Lumia Icon w/ 8.1.1 and an HTC One M8 with 8.1.1
Edit: I have now updated the original post for greater clarity

Thanks for the quick response! I browsed through the xml file and it appears that it makes other changes. I could be misunderstanding it.
Do I need to reset my device before applying this workaround?

No, don't reset your phone or you will lose it since it reverts back to the original OEM/Carrier settings. I left the XML basically intact except for the last part (see below) because I don't have a lot of experience (computers, and even more so xml/programming, is just a hobby of mine) and I figured it was safer to replace the "Enable Internet Tethering" option than try to add another option below and risk messing up the XML completely.
The Windows Insider App isn't all or nothing like Preview for Developers, so you can choose among a number of different options that seem to write to the registry in different locations or ways. Once you get in the app, you will have a few options. I don't believe it makes any other changes to the registry when you enable the MMS APN with my method, but if someone can find other changes than I will attempt to rewrite the method to make sure that doesn't happen.
Here is the XML that drives the registry change. Its found right at the bottom of the document, and my changes are in bold

Still working?
Hello. My Icon is getting delivered in the next day or so, and I will use it on ATT. I heard that the Windows Insider app got updated yesterday to prevent this exploit. Can anyone confirm that it still works? I really want MMS working on it...

I haven't risked updating the Windows Insider app to get it to work at the moment, waiting to see if they can figure out a workaround. That said, there is a thread in the WindowsCentral forums about getting it to work by installing and then deleting Nokia Access Point. Can't vouch for the method, but others have gotten it to work on T-Mobile.
Could anyone be more specific on how to enable those settings on Lumia Icon? I'm using it in Europe and I'm unable to use mms, so any help here is appreciated.
Cheers.

Please make sure you actually read the thread with the instructions, as it is clearly stated how to accomplish the hack. If you have further questions, please be specific.
For the Lumia Icon you need to have: A) Windows 8.1 and B) the OLD version of the Windows Insider app. You can then change the WPFlights.xml file to include the registry keys to unhide the APN. Basically you need to be able to take on write-access to the registry, and the updated Windows Insider app doesn't allow the hack to work.
For other phones with an SD card, you may be able to accomplish the same using the CustomPFD Registry Editor hack.

There is no way to get the MMS APN settings to show up unless you have the old Windows Insider app still and use the method I described. That said, people have had success getting the Icon to work on T-Mobile by hard resetting it without a SIM card in (see Windows Central Lumia Icon forums), inserting the T-Mobile SIM and setting the Internet APN settings. I imagine that could work on your M8 as well, but no guarantees obviously.
I was able to use my Verizon M8 on AT&T through the Windows Insider trick, but it was a bit finicky with SMS.
Hi,
I am a bit new here, but i really appreciate what you guys are doing. I have a question, because I do not succed in what is described here.
Indeed, I have a M8 with WP 8.1.1 (Verizon edition), but when I do the "How to install windows 10" tutorial, with or without your WPFlights.xml file, it failed at step 11: I have nothing except unauthorized, (empty screen under enroll). On the PC i do have "sending custom flighting response".
Can you help me to fix that ? Is it because I do nothave the "old" version of the app that you have mentionned ? How can I get ?
Thanks a lot !
