Using claunch and HTC Home Plugin (with HTC Home Customizer) as my today screen. see attached pic below.
I can't seem to get rid of the solid white line just above my claunch icons.
I've tried every setting in claunch; margins, height etc.
When I unselect claunch on the 'today items' it goes away and if I only have claunch by itself it's there, so it is definately not HTC Home.
Anyone encounter this?
The problem is not with claunch or HTC, it is your theme. You'll need to pick up a windows mobile theme maker (like this one), which will allow you to change the division line between plugins on the today screen. Unfortunately, as far as I know, you cannot remove the line - only colour it the same as your background to hide it.
I never would have got that.
Thanks man

Hi:
I have a Cingular 8125 and I am trying to get more screen real estate. I recently saw a reg edit where you could remove the taskbar icons for the battery and wireless manager, however those registries don't seem to be available on my phone. Anyone know any secrets to get this done??
Also, I am trying for an all black background and in my theme generator, the bottom and top bars are black, but when I install them to my phone, they are grey. I am using theme generator 2.0 and TKCreator, but both don't work for me.
Thanks. Dan

Remove the init_tray from your start up folder - \windows\startup\
You may have to soft reset afterwards.
there's
idcnobar
that removes the bottom bar (which indicate what the left and right softkeys are used for)
it complete removes it, but the icons dont shift down till you slide your keyboard out and back.
The Comm Manager icon is still there.
I did remove the listed shortcuts from Startup and the conn manager icon still insists on being in the tray.
Hi, I recently got the wing and I've been doing a lot of changes to my wing, one thing I can't seem to find anywhere is if there is a way to change the font color on the wing(such as start on top and calendar and contacts on bottom) and/or change the font color for the HTC Home Plugin media player(It's light blue), the HTC Home plugin I got is from the Touch_It full version.
I also seem to have a problem with the cube from the touchflo that came from Touch_It full version too, it opens up when you press the touchflo button then motion from bottom middle of screen to top, but I can't close it sliding from top to bottom instead it closes when I slide my thumb from bottom to top again and after wards it can't open up no more, the animation when I try to bring back the cube is it closing from then on
Running a search on this site provided this :
Change HTC home clock colors!!
Try sliding your finger from left to right instead and see if the cube comes up that way.
my clock color is white which matches the white font on my wing but the HTC Home plugin music player font is in light blue when active which messes up the whole matching thing lol if i cna't change that I would chnage clock color + wing font color
the cube after first time i bring it down can rotate left and but can never be brought up again lol is there a way to fix it?
Check this out !!!
I think this is what you're looking for.

Yeah with RC mod you can change it to whatever color you like. You don't have to keep it white. You go to Font color and change Today Font color.
Okay. Well I tried.

Remove the HTC Player you installed.
Install thishttp://www.freewarepocketpc.net/ppc-download-htc-audio-manager-v1-2-515-718.html
If that doesn't work..Download the HTC Customizer, run it, and download the Audio Manager through it. Thats how I got mine. Black theme, default player, and everything.

Did this work for anyone? I have exactly the same version installed with my Custom ROM and it is still blue. There is no way to installed because it was part of the ROM. Will new install overwrite the old files? Thanks for your help.
On the same note, has anyone been able to figure out how to change the way time is displayed "within the Music tab of the Home". Mine is always showing "time remaining", and I would prefer to see "time elapsed". I am able to change it in the Audio Manager, but the changes don't effect the plugin for Home. Please help!
Hey all,
I recently bought my first PPC ever, the HTC Touch. Not very much later I discovered rlToday and designed a skin in Photoshop. Pi3cH coded it and I tweaked it some more. Besides rlToday I use S2U2, TodayShrink and PCM Keyboard.
The result can be viewed here...
For those who don't understand Dutch. Underneath the appointment is the task section (Total, Important, Today, Overdue)
Now I have some problems I can't resolve in rlToday. I saw Grump on this forum for example that made an app for the iPhone skin and I was wondering if some guys are willing to get this done for me as apps can do more than rlToday.
What am I missing and can't I get done with rlToday:
1) topbar should be something like iPhone or S2US style
No start logo but still its functionality when tapping the icon on the left, smaller than WM6 topbar and nicer icons for Wifi, BlueTooth and stuff.
2) Now I'm using Mortscript to get the appointment coming inside the screen, but I only get the first upcoming one. And if that appointment is now, the next one coming is shown underneath it.
I would rather always see the next y (2, maybe 3, or for the today and tomorrow for example) upcoming appointments along with the location (if available), rather than the 1st upcoming or current and next.
3) Get rid of the circle on the bottom 3 icons when the number of missed calls/new sms/new email is 0.
4) get a highlight effect when tapping one of the 3 bottom icons, just like TouchFlo Cube for example (see pic 6 at my rlToday skin of the Cube 6 app side I changed, it turns blue when tapped).
Just wondering if this is in any way possible, without having a slow and without battery/memory consuming.
No one that can help me out?
You might be able to accomplish this solely with Wisbar Advanced, Wisbar Advanced Desktop (WAD) and a today plug-in.
1) Wisbar Advanced can definately make the top bar look like an iphone. As an alternative you can just run WAD in full screen mode to get the same effect. You won't have the iphone top bar running all the time but just in this screen. But as a trade off it'll be one less program running in the background. Along with the visual customization, Wisbar does have a decent start menu.
2) Doesn't the built-in calendar show the next couple appointments? If not, then there might be some pre-existing today plug-ins that can fulfill this. You gotta do some searching in Google or on this board for that. Worst case scenario, asking someone to program you a today plug-in is a lot easier and quicker than doing a full GUI.
3) WAD already does this and you can see some of their iphone themes already have that. What they do is draw a background circle without any text. And then the top text is drawn using a command like %Unread:SMS%. There is commands to do this for missed phone calls and any other e-mail account you have setup in the device.
4) WAD allows you to have two button states. Normal and pressed. You just need to create two different images for each. I've also came across a thread here in XDA where Speechman created a couple WAD screens where the button would move a little bit. And then use Mortscript to tie it together where it'll make it look like the button (or perhaps the phone) vibrates when you press a button. Here is that post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1809601&postcount=9
5) To address your speed and memory concerns...I don't think WAD is that bad. It uses about 700-800KB of RAM. No noticeable speed down. If you or someone else builds a custom GUI it will most likely take up even more resources. But atleast this way you can get what you want with $20 worth of software and you have the option of customizing it any way you like in the future.

Thx, I've tried WA2 once, but I cannot change it the way I want it, way too much stuff you need to adjust to get it how you want it. I just want to get rid of the start logo and icon, and some nicer icons for signal, battery, wifi and stuff... the iPhone skin I downloaded was grey instead of the black I want and it changed some more icons and stuff I didn't like.
I've posted a request on WA2 forum for a WA2 skin with my wishes but no one ever replied.

Calendar+ is a plugin that works perfect for me, unfortunately I want to use it in the middle of my screen. That becomes a problem because both top and bottom part are rlToday skinned and you cannot run 2 rlToday plugins at one screen.

My rlToday skin places a circle, together with Mortscripts it gets the missed calls and stuff on my screen, only problem is when it's zero I cannot make the skin hide the circle image...

Will take a look at that.
Well with WA3 (it lets you have more control over the top bar icons) you just have to find a theme that's similar and tweak it. At that point it'll be just replacing graphics and modifying text files for placement. WAD is much easier to work with and you are just starting with a black background, add the bottom gradient, and setting the placement of 3 today plug-ins.

Look at Phone Alarm. This is probably what you will need to replace the bottom rlToday. Phone Alarm has a lot of skins available and you might find a minimalistic one that can get you close. This might also solve the no bubble when zero problem.
So in WAD you'd do...
Top = rlToday
Middle = Calendar+
Bottom = Phone Alarm

I don't have WA3 so I can't try that...
PhoneAlarm won't do it for me I think. To many stuff that I don't want in that plugin (I see a load of icons, clock etc...).
Don't have WAD either, so can't try the bottom part in WAD neither.
I'm looking for some good HTC Touch themes that dont require the user of WAD WA3 UL ect.. Is this possible? If not, The program needs to be very light on the battery. Any ideas?

Okay, I was able to get what i want by using HHC Today Customizer, The only problem im having is on the today screen theres a thin grey line splitting up icons like on the main screen.. The email, sms, and missed call icons are devided by a thin grey line. this same grey line devides up icons in the other sections of my today screen as well. How do i get rid of it?
Also does anyone know how to change the buttons on the bottem, I think their called softkeys. Theirs two of them, Mine say calendar and contacts.
once again a search would suffice ur needs...to my knowledge...theres no way of getting rid of those separator lines...theres things u can do to change the colour of it to best match your walpaper...and please search...on how to change your softkeys...a search for advancedconfig will solve your problem
Hi All,
Firstly, please go easy on me, I'm new to windows mobile.
I am having issues with my O2 Touch Cruise, I have M2D installed and M2DC and have tried a number of backgrounds but all I ever see is the blue background to the home screen. Has anyone got any ideas? Everything else changes and the background to all other tabs changes, just not the home screen.
Any ideas, I'm sure I'm doing something wrong. I've looked at hh_fw_background.png in the windows directory and this image is the correct wallpaper.
Many thanks.
Mark
You should be able to change this under "Settings", "Personal", "Today". There you can select and click a picture as background. Try to use it!
Another solution would be to use M2DC for changing the order of your applications, fonts and styles.
In M2DC go to Background tab clear the path first and then use the three dot button to go to the location where your new background 'png' is located and use it as the new background.(The background photo must be in png format).
Thanks,
I now have a nice looking home screen
Mark
