htc home doesnt display favorite contacts - Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General

i cant seem to get my favorite contacts to appear, the button just isnt there. i used htc home customizer to try and get it back but it just wont appear. I've tried re-installing a different version but i cant seem to get it to show back up.

i think i found it!

no, reinstalling HTC_Home_2.1.1005.722 did not help. the contact tab is still not there.

Well.. you mean that you can't enable the contacts tab ?
Even with HTC Home Customizer?
You can also change the whole layout with it (backgrounds, clocks, icons, weather)

yes, it doesnt appear, even using the home cusomizer. i think it's the newest version of htc home doing it, so maybe i need a semi new version, ill keep looking for a different version, but i dont want anything too old, i still want it to have the smooth look.

you prolly cant use it cuz you prolly use the cube as well. ihad the same problem and didnt know for the longest time. then i got duttys rom and it was there. i then went on to install the cube and it disappeared. i uninstalled the cube and walla it came back.

does anyone know if there is a settong to have cube contacts and home favorite contacts

Thanks again

Getting rid of 5 tab today screen?

Hi,
I added the stuff from the "all you need for your wing" thread to my wing. Most of it is awesome, but there are issues with missed calls not showing up from my faves people. How can I get rid of this and go back to the normal screen? I tried downloading and installing the 3 tab version to see if that worked right, but it still shows the 5 tab on my today screen.
As far as the missed calls, I have the same problem as this guy-
xsillence said:
Hello,
After performing most of the mods located in this thread, the call history is not logging any calls to/from people that are in my fave 5. (it used to)
So I thought maybe the actual My Faves program is logging the calls now, but no it's not.
Anyone else experiencing this? The today screen plugin for missed calls does not increment by one when i have a missed call from someone in my fave 5, the call history does not log any my fave calls, and the My Faves program does not log them anymore either.

TIA!
not sure what rom you are using but most of the newer roms allow you to select and deselect which tabs appear on the home screen from Settings->Today menu. You can also achieve this by downloaing schaps config tool and using that to edit the home plug-in. I hope thats what you were looking for.
I'd love to remove the missed calls/msgs/voicemails part of the htc home plugin.
I use SPB phone suite, and I prefer it over the htc, and it annoys me to have 2 things on the today page showing me missed events.

Well I tried removing what appeared by doing the Settings>Today Menu, but it came up after resets. But you can actually get rid of it by goint to "remove programs", so that's good. I feel stupid for asking before checking that.
I don't know anything about that tool...I JUST got this phone, and before this had some old crappy nextel. I'm new to the modding thing. I'll see if I can figure out that tool though. Thanks.

Well I didn't mind that, but if someone in myfavs called and I didn't see it, it wouldn't show up in call history as a missed call, and it wouldn't give me any new notifications. I'd love that home screen if that worked, but for some reason it doesn't, at least with that. No idea why. I wonder if the 6 tab version works.
I tried the 3 tab version, but I think it's outdated. My city isn't in the weather thing for it, but it was on the 5 tab.

Favorite People tab not showing on xplode HTC Home 2.1 Build1005.722

Hi all my friends,
I have got a problem..
Installing xplode-HTCHome.v2_1_1005722_s0-all_device.cab , on the today screen I get no "Favorite People" tab.
I hard resetted and reinstalled the cab but no luck... As far as I remember an older version I was using time ago showed the tab correctly...
Is this a known problem with this version? I used this because it seems to be the latest available..
Is there a workaround or a solution for this "little" problem?
Thank you all so much in advice,
Eth
Make sure your "Favorite people" tab is enabled
Start-->Settings-->Today-->HTC Home (bottom tabs)
There should be a checkmark on the favorite people tab.
PoGa
Yes mate, It is checked. That's the strange thing...
Thank you,
Eth
Are you using WM6 with the cube? The favorite people tab will not show up on Home if the cube is also used.

Yes WM6 with FTouchFlo (also if I deactivate it, people won't show up).
Any workaround?
Thank you,

I had the same problem, and I had the cube installed. As soon as I uninstalled the cube, the favourites came back (after a reboot I think).
Hope this is of some use.
Do a search their is a mask Registry setting that you must delete for this. I am running the cube and home with all options active and working.
i uninstalled HTC cube and the favorites still do not show up. even uninstalled and reinstalled HTC home and same thing. everything shows up except for the favorites.

I've the same problem...
I'm not able to set any favorite people on the HHC tab....
Also if I hit "+" nothing happens....
So the problem is releated to the Cube??
And if I kill the Cube... Do you think that I'll solve the problem??

Yeah, the cube removes the favorite tab from htc home. It's not a problem though. Simple solution - DELETE THE FOLLOWING REGISTRY KEY;
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Software/OEM/MASD/QuickDial

Damn.....
That registry key doesn't exist.....
I think that I deleted it sometimes ago.....
Could you copy yours and send it to me?
I wanna try if with that registry key, the favorite people tab would work...
Thank you...
EDIT:
I HAVE JUST FOUND IT!
It is in HLM/Software/OEM. Not in /MASD
There I've found a key called Quickdial...
It's the same you were talking about or not??
RE-EDIT:
Ok, now I've understood that in the past I moved that key to another folder...
In fact now, after I've moved that key to /MASD, I'm not able to see the favorite people tab.....
But my problem is an other....
When I can see the favorite people tab, I can't it any "+"....
So I can't chose any favorite person....
I CAN SEE THE FAVORITE PEOPLE TAB, BUT I CAN'T HIT ANY OF THE "+" BUTTONS...
If I try to it one of them... Nothing happens...
I don't know if this is important, but I have installed PocketCM, and this program runs instead of the standard contacts one...
How can I solve that??
Noone?.....

What's Theme is Best for the Samsung I760

I'm tryng to find the best setup for my phone I like the iphone theme but I want something more stable. Any Ideas
try the htc cube and htc home screen
Thanks I will give them both a try.
I tried to use HTCCube FTouchFlo TFloCubeCtrlv110 Config with HTC_Audio_Manager 1.02 but I got a error saying ftouch is not installed but it is I turned it on top of that I don't see nothing is happing please help me get this up and running.
try the point UI. combined with pocket cm. it will change the "feel for your phone". As for the cube its more of a novelty and its fun to show friends what the phone can do, but i couldnt get all the functions/buttons working with any of the versions.

Ok I got SCLPF 1-62 Uno working my only question is how do I make the touch more sensitive I can scroll perfect with my stylus but not that good with my finger. And Is there a way to add programs like icontact or HTC Album in HTC CUBE icons.
Installed HTC.Home.v2.1.1005.722 on the i760
I have it check in my today screen list, but it doesn't appear. Any ideas?
its a .dll you need to drop into your windows dir.
Search for HTC HOME + .dll
where is this home dll?
I download / installed JUVS HTC Home.v2_1_1005722_s0
description said it should have a dll, which it doesn't
Other Options...
May not be exactly what you are looking for, but this is what I use:
Ultimate Launcher
Battery Status
Weather Panel
HTC Dialer
PocketCM
Then I create custom today, HTC Dialer, and PocketCM themes to make the look and feel the same for all screens. Take a peek and some of the screen shots in the pshades link in my sig. It isn't iPhone, it isn't Cube, but it is finger friendly, clean, and consistent.
Got it working.
How do you change from C to F for the temp though?
Battery status, that a plugin for HTC?
i760 customization

Without a doubt, try Wisbar Advanced Desktop latest beta. It is fantastic. It allows complete customization of the today screen to make it look exactly like the iphone if you desire. It is also very fast, it allows virtual pages, custom notifiers, etc. I have an iphone-like theme that has for instance a link to a picture speed dial page, weather virtual page, etc.
I'm currently using UltimateLaunch (don't know how many times I've suggested it since the purchase), it's amazing a very easy to customize, check out the sticky post. Or you could use poorlyduck's Vista Suite.
i have a question, i downloaded ul and i am trying to figure of just how you get all the info on different screens so i can use my finger to change screens.
thanks

bad alignment in sense and other programs

hi everybody, i installed my mobiler (so i can control my hd2 from my pc) and since then my sense main screen 'moved up' (hard to explain..look at pics).
i can see in the bottom right the my mobiler icon..but even if i disable it and softreset..well the screen is still miss-aligned (the icon is not there anymore).
my guess is that even other programs that have this type of icon would cause the same thing..
anybody experienced this b4? any help
much appreciated
Yeah, MyMobiler shows down there but only when you have the standard wm 6.1 plugin home screen. It shouldn't appear there while sense is activated. I have it installed also and it doesn't show up. Try disabling sense and enable it back and see what happens.
yup..i already tried uninstalling..disabling and deleting reg and then restart phone and/or sense...it stays the same .. pls help...i dont wanna hard reset again...just got everything working as i wanted...
oh..and by the way, de unde ai gasit un hd2 in rom?
i had the same problem just after the install of e-Natives Showcase
i don't know if is this program to create the issue but just after i removed it the phone went back to normal.
Just a thought, but in
start - settings - all settings - today - items
is there anything more than just HTC sense ticked? Could be that it is trying to show the app, and then show the senseui which is then trying to stack.

cannot uninstall cookies hometab 1.8.5

hi everyone im trying to uninstall cookies 1.8.5 due to the menu on the home page not workin at all. it highlights when i press it but nothing happens. i cant edit home layout or wallpapers or chteditor itself. it does work from the windows menu but not the the menu tab located at the bottom right of the screen. i was messing with the home layout personalizing it as ive had it since it came out (1.8.5). i had the previous cookies version before and never had a problem (1.7.1, 1.8.0). ive installed a quite a few apps including notification colors and colors for toggle and switches made by dinik that come in the 1.8.5 version of cookies. dont think theres any issues there as ive had them for a while now. i was going to uninstall cookies and reinstall it as im sure it everything would go back to normal again, but i try to and it say "not all of the program could be deleted do you want to remove from programs list?" i press yes but doesnt even erase it from the installed programs list. im stuck dont want to hard reset unless i really have to any advice? also i uninstalled the toggle and switches colors cab and the icons themselves have dissapeared except for the text under it but they do work when i click on them. i have the tmous hd2 with stock rom 2.10.531. thank for any help
I think this was a bug in 1.8.5, for some ROM's , I think there is an updated version, maybe just install over the top both the CHT and the Editor ...
I am not sure of this but I think I read it somewhere if I see it I will post it ...
this is something else i reinstalled cht on top of it and now seems like cht is completely removed besides the editor? that was kind of weird! im goin to reinstall it one more time to see what happens!!
Hi parmakr,
Have you tryed closing HTC Sense before you uninstall Cookie.
Had a problem removing a previous version of Cookie but closed Sense and then went to remove applications and it removed ok. Then just restarted Sense and everything was ok.
Hope this helps.
thanks guys for your help. what i did was reinstalled over the existing cookies 1.8.5 that was already there. i restarted the phone and all of cht was completely removed, how, i have no idea! so i installed it a second time and now everything is the way it should. sounds odd but whatever works i guess. so anyone that cant uninstall cht using the remove programs feature just install cht over the existing one and it should remove it completely, atleast for me it did! install it a second time and you should have it working fine. or take "rutster" advice wich seems the more reasonable way of doing it. would of tried that first but couldnt wait for people to post their advice! thanks though as i will try that next time i have an issue like this one!
Glad
Hey
Glad u managed to solve ur problem, i'm with Rutster about the sense deactivation 1st, coz this happened with my friend's phone and he managed to fix it that way.
Enjoy!!
I have the same problem...
can anyone guide me on HOW TO CLOSE THE HTC SENSE??

Hi somebody
I have more or less the same problem: can't remove cookies home tab 1.85 from my HTC Pro 2, 6.5 device. I've read all the posts but nothing is exact the same.
I'have installed CHT 1.85 but it didn't work at all, later I tried to install CHT 2.00, the installation was not succesful because Pro 2 tries to remove CHT 1.85 first which appeared to be impossible. (Senze of, erarse RAM fully). Looks like system got froozen while undeleting. Please help because CHT looks great and very useful.Thanks
