Anyone Know How To Add Progs To The "HTCHOMEPLUG"

Anyone know how? Thanks BTW, this is the today plugin that shows a few shortcuts (comm manager, battery, etc...) that htc provides on the newest rom that came on my trinity.

*bump*
Edit: Oh wait, I just realized what HTC Homeplug is... I withdraw my bump!

Yes this is possible
It is not pretty hard, but you need to change te register.
Open the register with a register editor (I use Resco register editor).
Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\HTC\HTCHomeplug\.
You will find two maps (2, 3).
If you want to create a new shortcut add a new key (name it "4").
In the key you need to add:
a string LaunchApPath -> point this string to the program
a string ResPath -> point this to the program or dll that contains the icon
a dword iconindex -> some executable files and dll's contain serveral icons. The normal value is 0, but it depends on the exe/dll file.
Example for adding Internet Explorer button.
Code:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\HTC\HTCHomeplug\4]
"iconindex"=dword:00000000
"ResPath"="\\windows\\iexplore.exe"
"LaunchApPath"="\\windows\\iexplore.exe"
Good luck

Can anyone export and post the reg tree for the plugin along with the DLL its uses?
I would like to install this on my other devices.

Here are the files.
I don't know if the plugin uses more dll files.
Give it a try.
I add RegSvrCe.exe to register the dll if needed.
Good luck.

Excellent - Thanks
I will give this a go later and post back how I get on.
Can you also provide HTCICON.DLL from the windows dir?

I Agree, the only advantage is that you can use the plug-in with your scrollwheel. That is not possible with traylaunch.

not at all... with scroll you can go into traybar and after u can use joypad to scroll application there.

What the guy means is that the scroll wheel moves between items in the HTC plug-in so it's easier to use with one hand.
EDIT: Ops I was wrong. Even with the HTC plug-in you need the joypad to move from one icon to another....

You're right, this wasn't possible on WM2003 .
In that case the HTCHomePlug is even more useless

The HTC plugin is easier to use with a finger... Traylaunch has to be activated with a stylus.

no, you can use scroll wheel to activate it and after choose application with dialpad not need stylus... HTC plugin use a lot of useful space in today =)

Thanks guys. I figured this out the other night and forgot I started this thread. Anyway, what I was trying to do is figure out how to add the "memory" shortcut to get straight to the task manager from that plugin and I finally figured it out. Thanks again

Care to share your method... if it's different from what's already posted.

It's the same...exactly. The only quirk was adding the memory app. I had to have the cpl shortcut....then it was the same.

Multiple select in Outlook (SMS/MMS) using drag

Is it possible to select multiple messages on Touch HD using drag in Outlook (SMS/MMS) ? My frind who is having Touch Pro can select multipe messages using drag, and I can't. We've noticed that we have different menus - he doesn't have Menu -> Select Messages, so I suppose that this is introduced on Touch HD because 'drag mutiple select' is disabled ... Or there is an option where could I enable this feature ? I also had this posibiliy on Himalaya as far as I can remember ...
Tnx!

I would like to know this as well as deleting multiple messages can be very time consuming without this feature.

used to be possible on my Touch Pro but now it isnt available on the HD. Not sure why.

Menu--> Select Messages --> Several

OK, but why did they disable drag ? I think it's much more simple dragging than tapping ...

I would assume that its because that would be the same gesture you would use to scroll the screen down.

Not quite the same, because on Touch Pro it's possible to select and to scroll and it's quite easy (with a little practice) to distinguate these gestures. But maybe some people had problems with that so that's why they disabled it ... But they could leave an option to enable it ...

Hi,
I am also having same problem. I cannot multi select files, massages, contacts or etc using drag.....
Can anyone plz help......
Thanks in advance.

it is because of newer build 207XX. touch pro had build 199XX. microsoft have disabled the ability to use multi select in newer builds. however you can recover most of the multi-select feature by making a following reg key:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Gestures\Touch]
"Disabled"=dword:1
after making this key, multi-select with finger/stylus will work everywhere except the inbox.

Happy New Year 2009.......

I once solved the problem in POutlook by pulling a copy of poutlook from an older kitchen and putting it into a new kitchen. Now the ROMs I'm using don't have kitchens so I can't seem to figure out how to fix it since I cannot copy poutlook.exe from the older ROM (get access denied message).
This was on a Titan but figured since you guys are having the same complaints maybe you could help me figure out how to copy poutlook.exe out of \Windows\...
Edit: it may have actually been tmail.exe... it was a few months ago now so I don't entirely remember.

Did anyone try to disable outlook enhancements? you can try to disable it by going to HKLM\Services\Enhancements\OutlookEnhancements and changing the string to add an extra symbol (like ") so that it disable it and soft reset to see if it changes the options.

HowTo - Customize Hardware buttons

Greetings,
Here is a way from me, to make it possible, to customize your hardware buttons.
Step one:
Start the attached FDC Taskmanager, then tap <Menu>, <Options>, set enabled on "Create RegEdit Shortcut".
Now you can open the Regedit - Shortcut in Startmenu ( <Programs> - <System> ) and .reg - files will be associated with FDC-TM.
Now doubletap on the attached .reg - file, select importing.
Ready!
Restart the device!
Feature lost: Navipanel not start automatically, when you put the phone in carkit. Copy the Navipanel.lnk in Startmenu or lay it of the navigation-button.
Step two:
1. klick "Start"
2. klick "Settings"
3. klick "Hardware-Buttons"
4. customize
Greetz Mirko
edit: when is it not easy enough, give me your adress and I will come to you and do it for you!

Thanx for the effort and for sharing Mirko!
I will definitely try it

bravo super boulot

Still starting
Hi!
I have succesfully created the two buttons in the control panel of the PDA and assigned them to right and left program key. And the work!
My problem is that the Tomtom and Footprint also start, which is a feature I would like to remove. I would much rather have them start the old fashion way, as this is a phone as a primary device.
Can anyone direct me to a solution. I would like to keep the programs installed but can as a last resort remove them if it helps (and if I can).

This problem occurs when you do not set the "NaviService" service to Manual and stop it. See the first post in this thread from Mirko, he explains it.

@ Snwstrm
U must read my post, stands:
"Now go with the FDC Taskmanager to "Services", stop "NaviService(NPS0)", long klick it, then change to "set manual". When you not do this, you have a double assignment on buttons."
Greetz Mirko
edit: Argh! Not seen, Evincar was almost answering, sorry!

No such service
Hi!
Thanks for a quick reply. I don't have FDC but Pocket Controller Pro as a task handling program and I cannot see any service that resembles the one U are talking about. My guess is that it differs depending on localization, but I will try to get a hold of FDC program to verify.
I tried to get help from HTC, but they couldn't help me. I guess they have some deal w TomTom and don't want to make it easy to switch or eradicate their program. They wrote to me about PocketToolman but it did nothing new, just a nifty way to access controlpanel.
Keep on looking,
Snwstrm

What about Google? FDC TM is freeware.
Greetz Mirko!

Victory!
You are absolutely right! I will have to contact SOTI regarding their software. FDC worked wonders and now I see no trace of TomTom or Footprint. Just the way I wanted.
Thanks!
Snwstrm

Nice, can help!

Thanks for this. I switched from Vox and I was quite angry, when I had to tap to top right to confirm something. Now footprint does this.

Mirko ,could you explain me more. I'm not good in registry edit,actually just started.
I've downloaded your attached file and already set it on my device but I don't under stand about your explanation.
1 "Copy the Navipanel.lnk in Startmenu or lay it of navigation-button." I don't where is the start menu in Registry and how to do it.
2 stop "NaviService(NPS0)", long klick it, then change to "set manual" that means
go to HKLM\service\NaviService and change value form default to 0???? and I don't understand about how to set manual could you explain me more.
Thank you very much

Nothing in registry, only with FDC Taskmanager and with the Button-Customizing in "Start"-"Settings"
Greetings Mirko

Launch HTC Start menu using button

is there a program or a cab that would allow us to assign the HTC Manila 3d Start menu to any hardware button?
i tried using AEButton plus but it only launches the default old windows mobile 6.1 drop down start menu..
i've tried everything from using manila.exe --switchtopage to searching the entire registry for clues but i can't find a path or attribute command that can be used in a LNK file to create a shortcut path to the HTC/Manila start menu..
i tried searching the threads too and got zilch for 2 days now..

how to toggle (bring it up to screen and hide) it using hardware buttons..

the only solution i can find is to make a mortscript that would send a mouseclick at coordinates 1,1 to enable a start menu tap.. but that doenst work when you are on full screen (i.e. opera, powerpoint mobile, etc.)..

You can bring the todayscreen in front I think
Code:
Show ("Desktop")
There is also an other command :
Code:
SendSpecial ("win")

Input disappeared

on my HD2, (Freyberry ROM), under settings > personal > the folder "INPUT" is gone, (no more). It was useful when you have multiple keyboard (as I has the standard input keyboard and TouchPal).
Somebody knows how to make re-appear?
Thanks
Saulo866

I mean via a registry tweak?
Or by adding a cab?
Otherwise now I have no way to select the default keyboard.
For example, if I would like to revert (even temporarily) to standard keyboard, then I need to unistall Touch Pal...which is not a desirable thing to do.
Any suggestions are welcomed!
Saulo

Simply delete the following registry key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\ControlPanel\Input\Redirect
Soft reset, and the Input settings are visible again!!
(Works on the HD at least )

Thanks Cycled.
Can you suggest me a registry editor? I am trying the default File Manager but I cannot figure out how to reach the registry

Do a google for CeRegEditor. You connect your phone to your PC with ActiveSync and run the app on your PC. I'd highly recommend it mate.

I use PHM Regedit. I think it's the one anyway as most roms I use lately already have a reg editor installed and so I haven't installed it myself lately.

In brief:
I cannot launch the standard Microsoft outlook-contacts, therefore the only onw is the HTC contacts, which lacks many fields (No separation for name, family name, middle name, no separation in company address into address, city, zip, etc)

Do you know how to get the last HTC application which is the bar on top which when you click on CLOCK or TIME?

I'm not that knowledgeable, just read a lot. I'm sorry, I use the standard HTC Contacts and do not know how to deactivate that.
For 2, I'm not sure if you are referring to a Task Manager which will show open apps when you click on the clock on the taskbar?
