Howto remove htchome when cooking rom

Hi, guys, as nowadays we have the M2D run on our polaris. So I plan to remove the htchome by cooking.
I found 4 files related with htchome:
HTCHome.dll
HTCHome.dll.0409.mui
HTCHomeSettings.dll
HTCHomeSettings.xmlI just deleted them, built my rom, generated the nbh file without errors.
Then I flashed my polaris, when finishing flashing the device stuck at the "Tap here to launch TouchFlo", I tap and it said "Launching TouchFlo", after a while back to the "Tap here to launch TouchFlo". Did the M2D have to use htchome to work?
Or any experts can tell me how to remove htchome totally when cooking? Appreciate!
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
which rom are you using how bse to cooking?
If you use original Wm6.1 you only need to delete htchome cab in \oem\oemapps folder and delete his installation string from config_ap.txt in same folder!

hi,
those file are no relation with HTC HOME PLUGIN, they are HTC home engine witch is necessary to all HTC today plugins, so if you want remove HTC home today plugin from original ROM just remove .cab file from OEMAPPS directory.
regards

Thanks for your response. I'm using 3.13.755CS from c_shehar.

Thanks M-Amine, You are a generous and warm-hearted expert here, I am always getting reponse from you.
I got it. but one question, those 4 files are not related with the M2D or other application, right?

Good WORK man, will try it soon with the HD Manilla.
Thanks xmod

Hi xboxmod
Great job man~
It work on my diamond.
Thanks a lot

You did it! Only glitch, you have to tap "Tap here to start TF3D" after soft reset... however, impressive! A bunch of people will thank you, and I'm one of those!
So last thing to fully port HD to Diamond is the list of letters on the right when you scroll for example in "select city" weather tab... it's too long, is it just a matter of resize like that in the HD weather panel to actually see the 5 days icons on the bottom?

Awesome work!
PS. maybe you can add a reg to avoid the manila show in the TaskManager:
[HKCR\Software\HTC\TaskManager\ExclusiveList\System]
"manila2.exe"=dword:0

not bad.. quick and easy bro!
i see that it basically cuts outs the steps that was needed to run the app, cause the keyboard pops up.
either way..thanks for this!
Late,

Hi xboxmod, really thanks for your work. Unfortunately, after i installed the cab, my manila.exe keep crashing even i tried your manila.zip attached. Please help if you feel free....
1. My windows folder manila.exe is 3mb... why ur attached one just 12kb?
2. I have 7mb free space before install the cab , after install and uninstall this cab i only have 4.xmb left, which files i can delete ?? (Now i restore my 3mb manila.exe and i can't see any manila2.exe in my windows folder.)
Again, thanks for your effort and i still want to make it work anyway....

thank you, works like charm so far!
yet it´s not that small (3mb), luckily I have enough space due to custom rom ;-)

HI
my cab contain 2 files
manila.exe (my loader)
& manila2.exe (quartz tf3d executable)
my loader work like this:
the today plugin call manila.exe (12kb)
then manila.exe call manila2.exe the real manila executable!
so be sure to delete manila.exe before install the cab
& use only Mun_rus manila or hd manila

Nice work Xboxmod.
Could you share the complete package of your manila?

Thx work excellent? Does it restart at 0 atomaticually?
Great work =)

[SKIN] New Tachi PIN screen - ready!

I've noticed that in the file phCanOverBmp.dll from the new Tachi PhoneCanvas there are ready bitmaps for a new PIN Screen. Could anyone make a cab or sth from that? It would be great.

New Pin Screen
Nevermind, I've coped with that
In attachment you'll find the zip file. Please unzip it and copy all of the files to your devices' Windows folder. After that do a Soft Reset.
ToDo:
- installation via cab
- correct landscape mode
- change the background
The bmp's are not my work, I've took them out of the phCanOverBmp.dll file from the ported Tachi PhoneCanvas.
I don't know if it works on WM6.1 - any feedback would be great.

Looks nice! I know several people have requested this before.
I'd be interested to know if it works on WM6.1 too.

Here's the cab, hope you like the skin.

iGO 8 running on Cruise 2?

Hi,
I recently bought the iGO 8 GPS Software (bundled on 2Gb micro sd-card) from Expansys. According to Nav N Go, the Cruise 2 isn't a supported device when it comes to iGO 8. However, since people have it running on a lot of other HTC-devices I decided to give it a go. Unfortunately it stopped at "INIT API".
Has anyone managed to get iGO 8 running on their Cruise 2? What "sys.txt" should I use?
Any help appreciated!
//Marcus

Got it
My man, I got iGo8 running smooth on mine after a lot of searching for right files, such as "sys.txt" and the voice files.
PM me with your e-mail and I'll send you the "sys.txt", links to voices files and whatever you need.
Best regards.

aaa man just got to add one or two lines and there you go
sys.txt:
[folders]
app="Storage Card/iGO8"
[interface]
maxzoom2d=6000000
show_exit=1
THATS ALL
PEACE

iGo 8.3 runs great on mine.

Latest version and perform reïnstall
Download the latest version 8.3.2.97313 3-jul from

Edit sys.txt in the download and change the line for your storagecard

editing Navipanel

Is it possible to edit Navipanel so it launches TomTom instead of Copilot?

NaviPanel and Igo8
Yes its possible,
this is my way of doing(maybe there is better one
1.Copy all files and folders except CONTENT folder(the bigges one) from IGO8 directory to Program Files\Copilot\ - you will replace Audio folder(if you didn't deleted all from here.
2.Rename iGO8.exe to copilot.exe and just in case make one copy of this file with name splashscreen.exe
3.Edit sys.txt to point to the content folder
[folders]
content="Storage Card/iGO8/content"
4. Enjoy
Regards.

Worked finr for me
Tried it on my UK HTC HD2 according to your instructions - all worked ok
No i have Navipanel running igo8 instead of Copilot
Thanks a lot !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

is it possible to point the data+branding folders as well so i can save some space on device

if you have installed igo on your SD card, you just have to copy iGO8.exe, sys.txt, and GPSTMC.dll in ProgramFiles/Copilot/, then rename iGO8.exe to copilot.exe (and do the splashcreen thing, just in case )
your sys.txt must contain
[folders]
app="Storage card/igo_folder_as_you_named_it"
hope it helped

Hi,
is there a way to use Navigon MN7 instead of CoPilot? My MN7 works manually in Landscape mode, no Problem, but i want to start it with the NaviPanel. How to do?
Thanks for any help...

Just found this on another site, tried it and it works a treat.
To make TomTom replace copilot:
-You have to install tomtom to your SD card
-Locate the install dir of tomtom after you have installed it
-Locate the navigator.exe and copy it to another folder
-Rename the navigator.exe in the tomtom folder to copilot.exe
-Rename the navigator.exe you made copy off to splashscreen.exe
-Copy the splashscreen.exe back to same folder as the new copilot.exe is
-Rename the tomtom folder (or what ever the name is) to copilot.
-Copy the new copilot folder, and then locate the original copilot folder on device storage (Program Files/CoPilot) and paste the new folder over the original (DO NOT DELETE THE ORIGINAL FOLDER FIRST)
-Soft reset, and it should work just fine

Hi,
I´m also trying to get MN7 startet that way (But on Rhodium with Navipanel from Leo coocked in). I copied \Windows\StartMN7.exe to the \Program Files\Copilot folder and renamed it to copilot.exe. Than the same again and rename it to splashscreen.exe. But when I start MN7 within Navipanel I get an error: "Turn landscape orientation error !" and MN7 starts in portrait mode.
When closing MN7 : "Turn back orientation error".
When I start MN7 directly with \Windows\StartMN7.exe everything is fine...
EDIT: Now it´s working for me. Either it was the Soft reset i did, or the changes I made to the G-Config APP. Copilot.exe was configured in G-Sensor App.
Now the next question is if it´s possible to link the Buttons "Go Home", "Recent" and "Adress" to the corresponding actions in MN7... That would be cool and would make Navipanel more useful.

Can I just check, when you say it is working great, does tomtom navigate to your home when you press home, and to your footprints? I have followed the procedure, but while tomtom launches instead of copilot, it does not plan a route. Any suggestions for getting this to work?

Use the Full-Specs of Navipanel with different Navisoft than CoPilot
Isn't there a possibility to make make the Navipanel understand, that the Navigation-Software is in a different Folder? I can't copy the Navisoft to the HD2, because there's no free space. I'm also interested in using the Navipanel with his full specs and with MN 7 or a different Navisoft...
Who can help?

I too would also like to know if it is possible. I currently have tomtom on my storage card rather than the phone itself, isn't there a ways to make navipanel run tomtom off the storage card instead of having to copy everything over to the copilot folder on the phone (or other navisoft)? I have tried creating shortcuts to a renamed copilot.exe and splashscreen.exe but it doesn't seem to like that.

My version of copilot wont let me edit the files on the phone as i don't have permission!!!!! is there a way round this as i want to use igo not copilot

Is it possible to start the Navi Panel automatically when connected to the car charger?

Bugger... I had TomTom installed on the device; doesn't work then! *Uninstall & reinstall to SD card...* :-(
