HTC Home Plugin for WM5 (3 and 6 tab).. finally !!

6 Tab HTC Home Plugin for Windows Mobile 5. Tried and working well on O2 Neo (HTC Prophet).
To install this app on your prophet, unzip the HtcHome6_WM5_comp_sdkcert.zip on your pc, copy the cab files onto your device and -
1. Run the SDK_Cert.cab on your device.
2. Run the HtcHome6_WM5_comp_sdkcert.cab on your device.
3. Reset your prophet and enjoy the app.
3 tab HTC Home Plugin for Windows Mobile 5. I have tried and it works on my O2 Neo.
To install this app on your prophet, unzip the HTCHomeWM5.zip on your pc and -
1. Copy the cab files onto your device.
2. Run the HTC Home Plug Today Plugin.cab on device (Not Storage Card).
3. Run the SDK Test Certs.cab on device.
4. Copy HtcHome.dll and HTCHome.dll.0409.mui files from the PPC Phone folder to the /windows folder on device.
Use Activesync to copy these two files since they might not be visible in your device File Explorer.
5. Restart your Prophet.
Enjoy !!
~ contribution by kram3r ~
And for Prophet users with a non English ROM, please take note to change the following before you reset your prophet,
- Rename the following files in /windows folder on device
1. HTC HDlg.exe.0409.mui to HTC HDlg.exe.xxxx.mui where xxxx is your international language code
2. HTCHome.dll.0409.mui to HTCHome.dll.xxxx.mui where xxxx is your internatinal language code
* The value for xxxx can also be found in the attached txt file (ROMlang.txt) extracted from the above link.

Hey thanks, this one works on my Qtek S200 too!
Now my screen is nice and clean!
Is this something comletely different as the HTC Audiomanager? I tried that one some time ago. Can I build the AudioM in this one?

I've installed the plugin too. I also take some screenshots.
I don't know yet I'll like it... I will see next week.
I've put also the situation of my Today-screen before installing the plugin. Yes, I llike it simple and basic.

I know there is a 6 tab version of the Home Plugin available as well where one of the tabs runs the HTC audiomanager. I have not been able to install it on my Neo, though.

Runs great on my wizard.
only one problem: The weather can't update its data from GPRS, only from WIFI. Anyone encountered that issue?

I was looking for a solution for the 6 tap version, here it is! umesh you 're good!
In version 6-tab there are more city's to choose than in the 3-tab version.
Two things to notice:
At Favorite People, if you don't have a picture of the person/company. It gives the first name.
The Music Player is just a shortcut to Windows Mediaplayer. It's a shame that the Music Player isn't a stand alone player. As you can see at my Homescreen, I use a SPB player. This plugin uses a less memory then the Windows Media Player.

Yes, I've the same problem...
For the people who love pictures, here we go!

Itried it a lot of times to install it but nothing happens.I copy the files to my device, the run the two cab files, restart the device but there's no plugin. It just reserves the space to my today screen but i just can't see it.Any solutions?

It's a beautiful plug-in, but I will uninstall it. The plugin uses resources very much and everything is to reach double now (START). Standalone at startup my memory is 6 MB less!
Plugin eats resources
Sound-tab: this is at less than 1 cm to reach upper row
Favorite Contacts tab: this are shortcuts to the first tel.nr.
In speeddail you can choose your favorite nr of the person.
Music-tab: is just a shortcut to WMP, this eats resources. I use the Spb pugin. It don't startup WMP, but use the music list and setings.

You might want to just try
1. a neat uninstall first of any older copies of unsuccessful installation attempts.
2. Restarting your device.
3. Then try to install again following the steps as mentioned earlier. Make sure you install both the cabs to your device and not storage card if it asks you for that.
As a double check, you might want to check post installation that a bunch of HH_***.png etc. files are installed into the /windows folder of your device and it does not create any HTC Home folder in your device. If so, move all the files under HTC Home folder into the /windows folder and restart.
Hope you get it working !!

You can have the HTC AudioM triggered by the audio tab in the 6 tab HTC modem by modifying the registry HKLM/Software/HTC/Music Plug-in/MusicPlayer to 2 for HTC AM. 1 is for WMP.
Have not tried this since couldn't get the HTC AM to work with my WM5. Let us know if this works for you.

Did anyone get the HTC Audio Manager working on WM5? I got the cab from the link below, but it just doesn't work. I get the 'trusted certificate' message when I try to run it. Please help!

So it doesn't startup WMP? At my device (WM5), it did.

I have the same problem and unfortunately no solution as yet. I did research on the net but to no luck. If any one has resolved this, please share.

I've uninstalled 3 times and checked files in windows folder, but nothing is displayed in the today's screen .... HELP. I've a WM5 prophet French version, as a guy installed it with other than a WME version (english) ?

This message just to report that 6tab version works perfectly on my Artemis (WM5 Italian - TIM). Just remember to rename MUI files on \Windows to match your country before soft reset the PDA (from HTC HDlg.exe.0409.mui to HTC HDlg.exe.0410.mui AND from HTCHome.dll.0409.mui to HTCHome.dll.0410.mui, since 0410 is the country code for Italy).
I also confirm that registry hack to use HTC AudioManager works (remember to rename mui files!)
Great works guys!

thank you very much i instal WM6 on my device but some of my friend look for this plug in for WM5
but a guestion what difrece between these two atachment ?
tnk you very much again

You are welcome, Matin.
The difference between the two attachments is that one of them shows 3 tabs for the HTC Home Plugin i.e. Time, Weather & Application Launcher.
The other is a 6 tab version where there are shortcuts on HTC Home Plugin for Time, Weather, Photo Touch dial, application Launcher, Profile switcher and Music.
I personally liked the 6tab version and am using that at present.

Touch Settings (development ceased) v.2.2 - Change EVERYTHING on your cube!

This application lets you customise your HTC's spinning 'cube' faces in many ways, changing icons, layout, which applications are launched, etc. You can change the following:
- Your Music/Pictures/Video programs (change which apps and titles)
- Your 3x2 APLauncher on the cube (change the apps, icons and titles)
- Layout of your APLauncher; positioning of icons, etc*
- Additional APLauncher Cube faces*
- Your Weather Location to be far more specific (i.e. not the limited in-built city selection)
- Your weather options (auto-update settings, etc.)
IMPORTANT NOTE: The app is no longer being developed - see this post. However, you may still request support from other kind users on this forum thread and I can confirm that it works well on the HTC Touch GSM (Elf). Users have also had success using it on the Sprint Touch, Vogue, OKTA, Touch Dual and Polaris, plus other mobile devices that have HTC TouchFlo correctly installed on them.
See the screenshots below for more info.
A lot of this is achieved via registry changes, on older HTC Touch devices (e.g. GSM Elf), a patched version of mediahubmini.exe is installed due to limitations of the in-built applications.
Installation instructions - Version 2.0 Onwards:
1. Copy the CAB to your device and run it.
Installation instructions - Older versions (before 2.0)
1. DELETE the file MediaHubMini.lnk from your \Windows\Startup directory and reboot... OR just terminate the process MediaHubMini.exe using memmaid, SKTools or another program.
2. Install the attached CAB file.
3. Run the app. (Start Menu -> Programs -> Touch Settings)
4. Click 'Save', reset again (close all apps, and power off your device properly first - otherwise changes may be lost!) and now your changes should be active.
Troubleshooting / Bugs
- If you enter an invalid path, then when you click Pictures or Videos, the device will freeze and you will see the spinning egg-timer forever. Reset, load the config app again and double check you have got the EXACT path to the executable correct.
- If you get an error that you could not install the cab because of "insufficient system priviledges / insufficient system permissions:
- Look into the settings of your device security model - check out this post for more information, or download Microsoft's Device Security Manager to alter your settings.
- Try the manual install version instead. See post on page three as well.

Acctualy,
if you have a ROM that already included any version of "biotouch settings", you can also install this, just by deleting the link (as in the instructions) in Windows\Startup and reseting.
Cheers
EDIT: it doesnt work very well.... try it at your own risk.... not recomended!

Thanks for this - I've had a look and you're absolutely right. The weather lists come directly from the accuWeather.com website, and they use a different system for North America. In fact, it's easier for me to just build the XML file into the app as there are incompatabilities with their 'zipcode' format and some of the home plugins.
Please try the new version v1.22 of the app and you should be able to select from many US cities. (Install to storage card perhaps as it's a bit larger now)

No! Please DON'T try to install using this method!. This version uses a different patch of mediahubmini.exe, so it WON'T work properly. In particular, the choice of "Other" for your music app won't work if you do it this way.
That's precisely why I wrote the installation instructions the way that I did.
Please could you edit your post to discourage this, as I don't have time to deal with the support requests that it would cause.

Just what I was after.
Thanks

thanxs bro nice apps

Excellent app, one question though...
is there an option to reset everything back to default? Don't say "Hard reset" ;-)
Just wondered as I changed my cube long ago and then thought "Damn, should have made a note of all the default parameters"!

There is a default package in first post. "MediaHubMini_Original_Unpatched.zip" to be exact. That should put things back to default if I understand correctly.

Great app. loving It. Could someone owning a nonbranded htc touch please post all the blue cube icons so we dutch t-mobile touch owners can get rid of the hideous pink and stupid web 'n walk icon. Cheers

Not quite
The media hub is one thing but the cube is another.
It had some parameters which I didn't make a not of before I changed apps and icons

File Transfer Tutorial anywhere?

Out of the tens of files I've downloaded, only a few have worked for me as I have limited knowledge on the subject of transfering from PC to Wizard.
Files like this though, I just can't understand how I am supposed to transfer the, onto my Wizard as they don't want to move from the PC folder.
Here is the file I'm trying to transfer - it's actually a very useful Google search bar in the Today theme for Wizards.
Thanks for your help.

The file you're trying to download is a .cab file, right? So all you have to do is sync your phone with a computer, copy the .cab file to your phone (anywhere will do...I like to keep my .cab files on an SD card in the phone, so I have them if I need to reinstall them later).
Once the file is on your phone, just navigate to it with File Explorer (or any alternative), and double-tap the .cab file. Even though it displays as an unknown file type, .cab files are automated installers for windows mobile, and will install all the files needed for the program automatically. .Cab files are deleted automatically when the installation is completed, to help you manage the memory on your phone. You can circumvent this easily by right-clicking the file first, and setting it to "read only" in the options, but I would only do this if you're storing your .cab files on an SD card, like me.

Myrddin,
Thanks for your help on this!
Yup it's a CAB file. But when I download it and extract it, I can't physically move it from the folder it's in on the desktop. I have the Wizard Activesync File Explorer opened up, and I try to drag to file over, but when I drag it outside of the window it turns to a crossed out circle (ie, not allowed).
Scrap all the above in Italics - I tried it again and it went in fine.
Now, when I go into File Explorer and click on the setup file, it just brings me to the same page as it does on the PC. It contains all the characters for the installation, but nothing happens.
The filebar at the top shows file://\My%20Documents\_setup
Am I just being dumb?

Definitely not. The installer should handle this file for you without pause.
Just to satisfy my own curiosity I tried to install the file myself. No problems at all. It did open a licensing agreement during the installation that I had to Ok, but aside from that, nothing unusual about the install.
I suspect that one of several possibilities has occurred:
Your download was corrupted. Try d/l the one below...
Your phone is somehow locked to prevent installations (very unlikely)
Your operating system is hosed (especially likely, if not an "authorized" ROM)
Just to aid with troubleshoot, what is your operating system, IPL/SPL, etc., what is your phone service network?

Thanks.

You are not supposed to extract the cab file. Transfer it without extracting it to your Wizard and run it. It will ask you where to install and it will do the rest.

Nope, still can't. I had tried not extracting it and extracting it.
Now I can't even transfer the file over again. When I click and drag the file icon turns into a black circle with an 'x' through it.
Myrddin, when you downloaded the file did it the icon show a little earth with '<' and '>' either side and 4 lines below it?
Thanks!

Do you have a card reader? Try removing the memory card from the phone, copy the .cab file to your memory card, stick it back in the phone, find the .cab file where you copied it with your file explorer and tab it to install. HTH.

Pwallwin said:

No. Are you using a USB cord and ActiveSync to sync your phone to the computer? If not, this can be a show-stopper. Third party apps usually do well enough at syncing, but to open the pathways that allow for file transfer it is usually necessary to have a USB connection via ActiveSync.
What OS is your computer running? Using Vista will surely cause problems. Windows XP is good and stable with ActiveSync. Using other operating systems is also highly suspect.
Do you have sufficient memory available to install this plug-in? If your phone is full of pictures of your significant other, then there won't be room. Not being able to transfer files to your phone makes me suspicious of this, too. Go to Settings > System > Memory and tell us what you've got free for storage and program.
If you have an unlimited data plan, or if you just REALLY want the plug-in, take your phone to a wifi hotspot and download the cab file directly from this thread to your phone, using its built-in browser. Then just double click the cab file icon. It is not possible to "extract" the files from a phone. You need specialized software to crack those .cab files open, and if this is kicking your butt, you might want to wait before trying something that technical.
One last ah-ha: You are on pay-as-you-go, you have no data plan, so GPRS/EDGE network is no-no for your phone, unless those plans have changed dramatically in recent months.

Arrgghh, this is frustrating!
Thanks for your help and patience guys.
I don't have a card reader, so that's out for now.
Myrddin, yes I'm using the USB cable and Activesync on XP.
I've got about 19MB free on the phone, and the same more or less on the storage card.
I've got GPRS working fine on my Pay As You Go, through help and the correct settings on this forum.
I think the problem may lie in my PC as I can't even take those files out of the folder and transfer them anywhere. When I click on the file, here are the steps I take...
Here I have opened it rather than saved it, but I have tried saving it too, just to the Desktop.
{
"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_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Then here's how it appears on my PC...

DO NOT OPEN THE CAB FILE.
This has been said to you many times, but you keep insisting on opening it, to no avail.
Think of the .cab file as a .msi file that only works on your phone. Yes, most compression programs will open a .cab, but it's not formatted the way most .cab files are, so opening it yields you nothing serviceable. It is merely an aid to installation, putting all the needed files and registry entries where they need to be, and creating the necessary shortcuts.
If you have the cab file UNOPENED on your desktop, then right click the cab file on your desktop and choose properties, to see if the file has been set to read only, archive, or anything like that. This should not prevent you from opening or copying the file, but nothing else you're saying is happening makes sense to me either, so what the hey. If anything is checked, uncheck it all. Also, if you are not using an administrative user login on your computer, you may want to try logging out as a user, and logging back in as admin. It's unlikely this is the cause of your problem, but as I said before, anything goes right now.
If nothing is checked, do the following. If this doesn't work, I'm afraid you're on your own:
Click the link above to start the download (again)
Click Save. DO NOT CLICK OPEN
Navigate to your desktop
Click OK
On your desktop, click ONCE on the cab file, and press Ctrl+C on your keyboard
Connect your phone via USB and verify that it completes sync (icon stops spinning, no error messages)
Press WIN+E, or click Start > All Programs > Accessories > Windows Explorer
In the LEFT column, click My computer to expand it.
Click Mobile Device
Click My Documents
Press Ctrl+V
Disconnect your phone from the computer
On your phone, Click Start > Programs > File Explorer
Navigate to My Documents
Click twice on cab file to start it automatically
Follow instructions and let it load to regular memory (it's better to put today plugins on your memory than on your SD card, which can cause your phone to hang/freeze while loading the today screen)
You're either done, or so lost at this point that I cannot help you remotely
I don't mean to be condescending with this instruction, I just want to make absolutely sure you are doing this the way it should be done. Please report back any problems you have with this instruction. (...and to everyone else, if I missed something glaring, please post it!)
Short of all this, I can only recommend that you try downloading the file directly from your phone's web browser. It's not very big.
Good luck,
Myrddin

Well don't I feel stupid...
Seriously, it was so simple and I just couldn't figure it out!
It's on my Wizard right now, thanks to your time and patience Myrddin!
I now know how to upload CAB files onto my Wizard. Easy, innit?
Now, next is upgrading to WM6 please mate - GO!! Just kiddin'!
Really, I do appreciate your help. Very few people would go to such efforts to help out an annoying noob like that. This forum needs more peeps like you I think!

4* Battery meter in titlebar doesnt update
Simply download and install, not sure if this fixes the problem or not, hopefully i can get some feedback on it.
Battery Fix
5* Comm Manager Wifi switcher sometimes works, sometimes not, cant pinpoint down why...
6* No auto-focus
I dont think isis a bug, just a different camera, but ill add it to the list because its frequently asked about.
7* Manila Configurator isnt included [FIXED]
This is simply because ITJE took it out, because people complained it wasnt the lastest one. Here is the latest.
M2DC
8* Quick GPS not listed [FIXED]
Copy it from the /Windows folder and paste a shortcut into the /Windows/Startup/Programs folder.
9* Not turning on.
Do a hard reset and after that don't use activesync over USB, use over bluetooth. Not sure on this one, since im not experiencing the problem.
10* Manila "All Programs" button works once, requires soft rest to get working again.

If your like me and want a nice blue ROM, youll be happy to know that this ITJE interation is. But its not *perfect* just yet. These are the changes i made, and i thank the respective owners for their efforts, especially PoorleyDuck

If you have problems installing something due to "permissions" try disabling Touchflo2D via the Today>Items> menu and then install it, then re-eable touch flo.
Simply download and install, For S2U2 Simply install, delete the OLD gfx folder and replace it with the NEW one included inside the .zip. Then with ITJE's included registry editor go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\A_C\S2U2\TimeFormat and change it to hh:mm

This ones a bit more difficult because i altered a theme from from TWolf (thanks).
First install the CAB from inside the "Skin" folder. Next go into settings>Today>Items and disable Touchflo. Then copy and paste the group of images from the "Skin" folder to the /Windows folder on your Polaris with Total Commander. Then you can install the comm manager .Cab.
Now go back into settings and re-enable Touchflo.
With S2U2 make sure to delete the OLD gfx folder and replace it with the NEW gfx folder included in the zip.
Black Theme
*removed S2U2 because it has bugs.*

4* Battery meter in titlebar doesnt update, showed full battery while "Critical battery level blabla recharge blabla" popped up...

What do you mean? I just reinstalled it and it works perfectly....
You sure you installed it onto "Device"?
You sure it said "installed successfully" after it? Because if you didnt get that, just soft reset and restart the installation.

Ok i will retry later
Edit : nothing, unseccessfully, System permission ... no problems i'll wait for next ROM release

Not a real fix for this problem but do a hard reset and after that don't use activesync over USB. I use activesync over bluetooth now and don't have the problem anymore.

You do not need to make a hard reset.
Just do not disable "enable advanced network" or "enable faster data sync" under start -> settings -> connections -> USB to PC
ActiveSync won't connect via USB, however it will work via BT

Hi
using M2DC cause trouble with People tap, if this happen just restore backup and use M2DC to rearrange the tape and number of launcher apps

It isn't a problem only with this ROM, but with youtube the video is not in sync with the sound.
Did anyone else have this problem or a solution?

I've got something strange in this ROM with "All programs" softkey. It works only the first tap after soft-reset, after closing "Programs" window it stops working. Does anyone else have a problem like this?

Soft De-Brand Procedure

Soft De-Branding of Toshiba TG01
===================================================================
Required:
- Windows desktop based Registry Editor such as CERegEdit
- Replacement Welcome and Shutdown screen image files (below)
Optional:
- Windows Mobile File Explorer such as Resco Explorer 2010
- Microsoft .net Framework 3.5 View attachment NETCFv35.wm.armv4i.cab
- Microsoft .net Config Tool View attachment netcfcfg.cab
Additional OPTIONAL Step
- ROM Reflash as described in this thread
- this ONLY results in removal of the Orange splash screen; the rest of the process described below is still needed.
- This also introduces a significantly greater level of risk and should be avoided unless you know what you are doing and take full responsibilty for any unintended consequences.
- Please read thoroughly ! Especially the caveats posted by @cedesmith as author of the TGTool.
====================================================================
Part 1 - Carry out Hard Reset (Master Clear)
Either:
1.1 Power off; Press Power button while at the same time press and hold Camera AND Volume Up. When green light comes on / vibrates, release Power. Then follow on screen prompts to execute HR.
OR:
1.2 Go Start|Settings|System then tap Master Clear. Enter code '1234' to confirm.
1.3 Allow device to initiate cold boot. White TOSHIBA appears on black background, followed by Orange Windows screen and message
"Tap the screen to set up.... " DO NOT TAP !
====================================================================
Part 2 - Remove unwanted .cab Files prior to startup
Start CeRegEdit (NB. if you are running Vista / Win 7 you will need to be logged in as an Administrator)
- Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Toshiba\AutoCabInstall
- DELETE all Values in this section that you do not want to retain.
- If you have a licenced copy of Core Player, will also wish to remove this so you can install the later version now available separately.
====================================================================
WARNING:
- From here on you are making significant Registry changes; however if things don't end up working as desired, this IS fully recoverable, BUT will entail doing a fresh Hard Reset.
- If you are not happy with these detailed edits, suggest skip to Step 4.
- All changes CAN also be made by individually editing the multitude of Settings (eg. Network, email, etc.) directly on the TG01.
Part 3 - Clean up Registry
DELETE Complete Keys:- HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Comm\RasBook\Orange Internet
- HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Comm\RasBook\Orange MMS
- HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Comm\ConnMgr\Providers\{7C4B7A38-5FF7-4bc1-80F6-5DA7870BB1AA}\Connections\Orange MMS

- HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\GPS Intermediate Driver\Drivers\GPSOneDevice:UMTSServerURL
Replace UMTSServerURL Value 'agpss.orange.co.uk:7275' with 'xxxxx' appropriate to your Service Provider If not available, leave 'as is' and change later.
Edit: Copy attached .cab to the TG01 and run to change to Vodafone / BT Mobile AGPS Server if desired:
View attachment AGPS_Vodafone_Server.cab
- HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\AboutURLs:home
Replace 'http://orangeworld.co.uk/' with 'http://www.bbc.co.uk' or whatever IE Homepage you prefer

- HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Ident:Name
Replace 'TG01' with 'TG01_Debrand'
====================================================================
Part 4 - Boot into Windows
NOW you can tap the screen and proceed to the usual Align Screen stage.
HINT - when carrying out screen alignment, make your taps very precise and GENTLE. This will maximise both pointing accuracy AND sensitivity.
====================================================================
Part 5 - Remove unwanted Shortcuts from Start Menu
Open your TG01 in Windows or File Explorer:
- Go to ..\Windows\Start Menu\Programs
DELETE Orange Maps.lnk (NB. if in File Explorer on the mobile you won't be able to see the .lnk extension)
(You can also remove shortcuts to any other built-in apps which you don't want, eg. calculator, if replacing with a more swept-up version)
====================================================================
Part 6 - Replace Orange Welcome and Shutdown screens with generic Windows ones:
- Copy the following two files FIRST to your device or uSD Card; then across to ..\Windows directory.
- Ignore the warning messages about overwriting.
- NB. This will NOT work using either Copy|Paste from the desktop via AS/WMDC OR the built-in File Explorer.
- It WILL work if you install a suitable 3rd party file explorer such as Resco Explorer 2010. This also incorporates a very useful on-board Registry Editor and is highly recommended.

,
====================================================================
Part 7 - Add a Soft Power Off Shortcut (exactly the same function as the hardware button)
- Unzip and copy the following shortcut (.lnk file) to ..\Windows\Start Menu\Programs
View attachment PowerOffHint.zip
====================================================================
Part 8 - Test the shortcut by going Start | Power Off (Icon with Red circle and White cross).
- Press the hardware Power button to reboot
- On reboot, you should be greeted by the Windows start screen and as fully soft de-branded a device as is currently possible.
====================================================================
Part 9 - Supplementary improvements:
Add Microsoft .net Mobile Framework 3.5 and .net Config Manager
- Install View attachment NETCFv35.wm.armv4i.cab
- Install View attachment netcfcfg.cab
Then open .Net Configuration (Icon in Start Menu) and check you have:
.Net Compact Framework versions installed:
3.5.7283.0
2.0.7045.0 (ROM)
Go to Device Policy tab and select 'Run unconfigured applications with the following'
3.5.7283 and then tap 'Apply'; Close
====================================================================
Part 10 - Strongly Recommended:
Install a suitable on-device File Explorer / Registry Editor (eg. Resco Explorer 2010)
Install a suitable Backup app (eg. Sprite Backup, Resco Backup or SPB Backup)
Now make a 'Master' Backup so you can easily get back to a 'clean' build after your next Hard Reset without having to repeat the above process !
Edit: Experience has shown that while a Master Backup is still really good for certain aspects (eg. all your own Operator Settings which WILL get restored to the Registry following an HR, unfortunately because the above process also deletes lots of Keys/Values, these will stay in place post-HR. Basically restoring the Master Backup will overwrite any values, but it doesn't delete anything.
====================================================================
Acknowledgements:
- To all the various sources across XDA and other Forums - Thank You for a vast mine of information which I have tapped into to pull together here along with my own researches.
Request:
- I have tested the above procedures on a TG01, both to create the information and then walk through and follow it...
- There are however almost certain to be some 'bugs' which will be encountered, also depending on individuals' configurations, ISPs, etc.
- So, it will be greatly appreciated if you find a bug to please PM me with the details and I will then update this post accordingly.
Enjoy....

When i open up ceregedit it doesnt detect my tg01 so i cant get into the reg files. Is there something special i need to do to get ceregedit to detect my phone - im connected via usb.

Thank you very much for the information, it is very detailed explanation indeed, good job!!!

many thanks Kevin!
only one question left - at the end you suggest to make a master backup so that we can later restore the phone with the above settings...how to make a back up?
great thread!

nice post shame i dont have my tg01 anymore would have loved to have got rid of orange branding

Kevin,
this is a brilliant how-too
& i thought i was 'brutal' with last bedrand... you've taken way more off than i even knew was there...
i just swapped to o2 PAYG & these settings (even without a hard reset) really helped strip out the orange (perhaps they should rename to brown) MMS / internet etc
FYI (to the board ~ kevin'll know this already)
a LOT of these settings can be removed without a hard reset, but it would be better to start from a fresh install if possible
but (if like me) you already did the auto cab install remove, then you can still delete the settings mentioned above.
Thanks again Kevin.
This just leaves the orange boot up screen... i'm getting no where with that... like people have said.. needs a unlocked ROM methinks... can't even find the file on the phone

if on vista/win7 - you must run ceregedit as a administrator
the phone must have made a active sync connection with windows (NOT just show up in win explorer) or ceregedit wont detect it.

You're welcome I've edited links to each of the 3 principle Backup solutions own websites into the first post. I'd say they are broadly similar, but each tend to have their own enthusiasts. Suggest a quick trawl on XDA and other forums for feedback and then 'try before you buy' where a trial version is available to check out.

I don't think the Orange boot screen is on the phone - I think is hard coded in the ROM and written into the equivalent of the Bootstrap Flash chip on a PC - so is the same as the Asus or whoever's logo splash screen you get when you start up your desktop (assuming POST isn't set to display).

Thanks, Kevin, for your work: nice post, very clear & instructive...
Although I thought it will remove the ''funny" stripes(aka toshiba menu) too... Is it possible?Which way?
What are they reffering to:

NB. Do NOT delete Path Path 31 and Path 34
because I didn't delete those.

These are two different things. The Keys you identified above relate to the Root Certificates. I've shown in more detail in the attached picture:
View attachment 298079
We are deleting all the Orange specific Certificates which I don't think will now be required but keeping the two generic ones marked in red.
The Toshiba Stripes menu system is controlled from the Registry but a different part - this wasn't included in the above process, but it will be possible to disable in a similar manner. The configuration of each Stripe is included in a set of Keys here:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Toshiba\RegistrySettings\MainMenu
There may be other Keys which also contain references, but I havn't searched for those as yet. In the meantime, the Toshiba Stripes UI can simply be 'switched off' by deselecting in the Today Settings just like the Windows Titanium UI.

Please see Post#12 above - it appears hard coded in the ROM NAND and so far we are unable to find any way of replacing - until such time as there is a viable independent ROM which a number of dedicated people are working hard to achieve.

Nice detailed instruction.
Thanks a lot.
My question is:
Since I used already this metod from your post #71 , would I be able to do "master clear"
and start it all ower again.
Thanks again.

There is nothing to stop you doing a Hard Reset (Master Clear) and starting the whole process from square one. However if you have already part set up your device, you can do most of the changes retrospectively as well, but you probably won't end up with as thorough a 'spring clean'.
The ideal is to start with a HR, go through step by step until happy and then make a Master Backup so that when you do a future HR you can quickly get right back to a known clean state.
If you have already installed various Apps, worthwhile saving the Settings for those (many have a built-in function) as again will make it easy to restore their configuration 'just so' following a clean reinstall.
Hope that helps ....

Thanks.
I'i do it all over.

wceload.exe
Kevin
I found on a Russian site another debranding procedure:
they recommend after HR, when the calibration screen appears, to connect to PC and place in Windows directory using Active sync an emply file called wceload.exe
they claim that none of the operator autocabs will be installed this way.
I am a complete beginner in WM but I would appreciate your opinion on this procedure, even theoretical
many thanks
