first screen problem ... - Touch HD General

Hi everyone !
Enjoying my Touch HD but today first problem has cropped up.
My screen can be seen below - screenshot_1.jpg and also how it has changed - screenshot_3.jpg.
Sometimes the clock changes to just numbers that do not flip over.
I did install HTCPlus! but it did not work, so I uninstalled it.
I have tried a soft reset and do not want to do a hard reset !
I have also changed pictures in settings > today, and then rebooted the Touch HD and then tried to put the original picture back..
Any ideas?

yes, solution hard reset

you should be able to correct it by going settings > wallpaper > then it should ask to use default yes or no, just hit yes.
Thats how it works on the diamond, maybe its the same on the HD?

sorry, but i am not sure what the problem is and how many problems you are describing:
I blieve one of the problem is that your clock's numbers don't flip over.
i am not sure what is the point of the screen shots, are you saying the background looks different (second picture has a greyish background). Please clarify so we can assist you.

Just go to settings (TFLO 3D) > Background > default background : yes or no, choose yes and the background is just normal again.
I had that problem also when i was discovering the new Touch HD phone

Hi!
sorted now, worked it out this evening...
and mwatson! you were spot on! Thanks to everyone for posting...

problem with UltimateLauncher with more than 2 todayplugins

I'm testing this nice app but I've got several problems after the first setup.
If i insert in the varius tab more than 2 today plugins like Pockerweaver and Pocket Digital Clock in one tab and Todayagenda in other one, every time i enter into the program setup for adding or modifing something and i confirm the modification, my device hang. I need to softreset.
Does someone else have the same problem?
I've got I tyTn (I've tested with both WM 6.0 and 6.1)

I've experienced that sometimes during set up...It happened somewhat randomly, but not so much to prevent me from doing what I needed to set up. Also, it doesn't do it now that everythig is set. You might try:
1. make sure all your plugins are not enabled in the normal Today set up before you try to add them into a tab or sub tab.
2. properly set the "Activate plugin on startup" and "Save memory" checkboxes. I generally have the first only checked on the "main" tab items and unchecked on all other tabs. Also, I generally have the "Save mem" unchecked for the main, and checked for the others.
I can't say this will stop it from happening, but i did expereicnce different results when I played with them some...

Thanks a lot for the answer...I've followed you tricks...but in my case the problem appears in a systematic way :-((((
I love UL but its still a tiny bit buggy. It just doesn't seem to like certain today plugins. I don't have a rhyme or reason for it, but sometimes it doesn't play nice.
PocketWeaver?
Could it be PocketWeaver? I've used UL for several months now with MANY today plugins. Currently I am using it with both PocketDigitalClock and TodayAgenda. Since PocketWeaver is the only one I haven't tried could that be what UL is not behaving well with?
At one time I had 5 plugins running in 3 tabs and UL setup has never hung for me.

How long did you wait before a soft reset. On my device I have to wait quite a bit for the screen to refresh after any configuration changes. I have 4 tabs with 7 plugins going right now and it does not hang.
I noticed I couldn't get the Audio Manager plugin to work properly in UL, wouldn't expand on selection.
I have phone weaver running without issue. Phone Alarm was giving me problems and very infrequently batterystatus

UPDATE: i think to have found the reson why...I've set all the ico dimension to a "correct" dimension, like for an ICO with maximum of 48px i've set 48px and not 52 or something more and for an ico of 68 i've set 68 not more or less...and all is working weel now. I can do ini refresh and modify the settings without any phone hang.
I figured I try out UltimateLaunch and I made a new tab and added BatteryStatus today plugin. It locked up, after soft reset it locks up within a few seconds. Any ideas how I can fix this without a hard reset? Thanks
Chris
EDIT: I was able to get to the Today screen and disable UltimateLaunch after about 20 tries and some caffeine! I disabled battery status in the today screen this time and turned of the minimize in Ultimate Launch. This fixed my issues. Thanks anyway.

Sorry a newbie question. How do I actually put in more than 1 today plugin into the home tab of UL? Does the software allow that? I would like the whole today screen to rotate n not only part of it.
Thanks in advance for the reply.

Adjust the height and add a 2nd plugin, just like you did with the 1st.

If you want to have more than one today plugin on the same tab (i.e., HTC Home with another plugin underneath it) be sure to "combine" the tab.
FYI, the perfect fixed height for UL, with the system tray still visible, is 245 pixels.
Thanks very much for all your help. I got it.
Maybe you Gurus can help me....
I wish to have MyFaves as a UL plug-in but it will not show up unless I have it checked in the Today screen items, then it shows up twice (once in UL & once on my Today screen). Can anyone help me? BTW I have a cooked ROM & am using DuPrade's MyFaves cab file.

...267 if you don't have the system tray.
I too experienced some lockup issues using Battery Status. I have since unloaded it and no lockups since. I'm thinking it's anything actively monitoring the system that UL doesn't like. Although i have RLToday installed and using it for my msgs notifications, but that is a registry read.

Help with HD S2U2 skin and clock positioning

I have made a skin for S2U2 to match the HD home screen including the tab bar background. However as you can see in the attached pic the clock never positions itself acuratly and is always shifting left or right depending which numbers are displayed. How can I make the numbers always lay within the boundary of the white squares? Where is the coding which tells the positioning of the numbers relative to the screen (x, y coordinates)? Or is it the png files are wrong size?
Any help would be appreciated and will share once fixed.
I Have the same problem but only with the times between 0 and 9:59..
As you can see on the Thumbnails..
I also would be very thankfull for any help..
I've done a similar thing but not for the HD (I don't have mine yet!)
On my Hermes I exeperienced the problem you're having with it not aligning at certain times of the day.
I tried it on a Touch Dual (Nike) and it works perfectly. Quite odd.
I've got a screen ready to go for as soon as I get my HD which should hopefully be next week.....
i don't have my HD yet but i think if you changed time format in the lang.ini file to HH':'mm your problem will be solved, it seems currently it is set to H':'mm !.
hope this will help.
I have tried different time formats. Same problem. Some times its in alignment and some times its not. It all depends on what time it is.
finally i have my HD and as i mentioned before just change the time format and have no problem at all!
here is my lang.ini file attched if you want to try it. after you replace your old one just go to settings and change the time format as ( HH':'mm )
can you dudes post the black hd skin ?
thanks

Touch HD Home screen

Hi,
I've just been looking at the Touch HD and the Calendar on the home screen allows more than one entry. Unfortunately I'm not a dev so I was wondering if anyone has a ROM in progress with this feature. I know I'm not alone in thinking this a major loss in M2D. If it could include tasks it would be even better, I like the first screen I see to have all the info I need for that day. I know I can use SecondToday (and do) but that's an extra key press from seeing everything I need on screen 1.
Thanks
i have the elite 3 rom and i can see 2 entry on the home screen. i think that more is not possible with qvga...
have you tried changing the setting in today screen options/items... selecting calender and chinging the setting there?
Install new Iolite Manila version...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=398173&highlight=iolite
Calender will only show the next, as in one, per default. You can change that in settings for the home screen
so please show us that we must change.

HD2 Hard to read Quicklink Text

Hi guys, just got my HD2 few days ago,
I haven't modified the rom or anything just applied the following:
Dutty's Taskmanager
DJC Taskbar
Cookie's Home Tab
I don't know how the quicklink or shortcut text looked before but I noticed that the text is not as clear, I mean the white color of the text of homescreen shortcuts is not as clear, I have no problems with reading anywhere else except on the home tab....
The white text is bit hard to read... I don't know if everyone has this problem?... is it normal?... Also is there a way to change the size of the text because I think if I make it like bold text, then it would be much easier to read....
again the Start button text, menu and phone at the bottom (which are quite thick letters) look very fine its just the text of shortcuts and weather temperature...
please let me know if anyone else has similar text that is hard to read..
thanks
is cleartype enabled?
settings tab - menu - all settings - system - screen enable cleartype.

Hi.... I don't see "Screen" icon when I go into system... ?? Which option are you talking about?
Please clarify
Thanks
p.s. this issue is the same as one discussed recently about pixelated home tab...
I am using stock rom with Cookie's Home tab....
If anyone knows about any .cab files that can be installed to solve this problem, please let me know.. .thank you.. again the problem is hard to read quick link text and weather text below the clock on the home screen (when I say hard to read It is somewhat blurry but readable.. this is not a serious issue but it doesn't look very good on the huge screen of HD2) any help will be appreciated thanks....

seems teh screen settings are hidden by default in some roms.
With a registry editor, browse to
HKLM/controlpanel/pen and change the value of 'Hide' from 1 to 0.
Soft reset, then go settings tab - menu - all settings - system and you should see screen settings icon.

You are a life safer! it makes such a huge difference I can't believe it wasnt on by default! amazing!!!! thanks thanks thanks!
pleasure
Nice, this should go in the tweak list!
While I agree that ClearType makes a huge difference, I second the request to make quicklinks text in Cookie's Home Tab larger or adjustable. ClearType or not, it is quite hard to read as of now.

[Q] Touchflo startup pic

My Touch HD is second hand. When Touchflo starts up, it displays a picture. At first I thought it was a hard-coded unchangable picture (it was of a blurry dog's face), but recently I've been seeing a picture of my own that I had previously deleted! My question is, where does Touchflo store it's startup-pictures (I've looked everywhere), and can they be changed manually?
Cheers
Bump before I lose the front page. Anyone? Surely someone has figured out how to stop inappropriate pics being displayed on startup...
Check if you have set background in today settings in ALL Settings.
I think you see the windows wallpaper before Touchflo starts. Touchflo 3d has its own wallpaper which loads along with the app. Its homebackground.img in windows dir. Try deleting this file and see if it makes any changes either.
Let me know...
OK, the picture was indeed selected in the Today settings, so I was able to change it.
Thanks very much, success!
