[REQ][APP][WM6.5]Titanium/CHome Plugn Re-Namer - Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General

I would like to request an app to rename the names of the plugins on the CHome/Titanium Home Screen. My wife's got WM6.5 on her AT&T Tilt but the fact that some of the plugins are lower case and some are upper case is starting to drive her crazy and in return, she's making me crazy because I can't figure out the CPR files.
Here's a screenshot of her Home Screen so you can see exactly what I am talking about:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
As you cal clealy see, some are capitalized and some are not. I would like to see an app that would allow you to change the names of the plugins, including the ability to just capitalize them if desired.

dito
cause i like the name troybook better , bump

I 2nd this post Dharv!! I thought I was the only who didnt like the upper and lower case of the plugins!!!

Have you try out CHome editor by Showaco?
Or you can use total commander (or any other reg. editor). To change Favorite People, go into HKLM/Software/Microsoft/cHome/ATFavePeople/CondensedPage/PluginLabel
And for Facebook, HKLM/Software/Microsoft/cHome/Facebook/CondensedPage/PluginLabel. And do a soft reset when done.
Hope that helps.

I tried setting the 2 capitalized plugins(Facebook and Favorite People) to lowercase through the registry using Resco Registry and it DID work but she still wants everything to be uppercase. She's kinda anal and since we've been together for so long, she's developed a specific taste for how her phone operates just like I have.
I'd be happy if someone could just help me set them to be all uppercase. It doesn't neccessarily have to be an app. I just thought that an app would benefit everyone and not just me so that's why I asked for an app.

You can change some of them with Showaco's Chome Editor. When you start the program go to Menu/Manual Edit Item Values, then click on the plugin you want to edit, then find the item that says pluginlabel. Some you can't change with this program though.

Instructions for editing the CPR files a few threads down...

Haven't tried it myself but I think this is what you are looking for...

contacts pic on today screen

can some one please tell me how i can put contacts pic on today screen,i seen it done with the treo 700 with windows 5.0.maybe some one can tell me of some software to do this,thanks
i use vjays phone tools and set shortcut with custom icon to my today screen launcher.
I also use VJPhoneTools on my Today launcher:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
But there is a commercial app called MyPhoneShortcuts which does something similiar ($9.49).

Hi vjay,
when you gonna let us know how get out today screens looking this cool?
Bit busy
Holy sh*t VJ! That's some busy Today screen.
Davebo: Yeah, I'm still not happy about the spare bit of space in the middle (it's actually a plugin called VJTodaySpacer). Will have to put something ridiculous in there too! This plugin, VJEphemeris, is likely to substantially change shape as soon as I get a minute to re-address some of it. With my R&D on VJVolubilis etc, I want to build in one touch wifi/ir/bluetooth control etc, and some other stuff.
The screen looks busy but I find it quite easy on the eye (although I dislike analog clocks. I only did it to see how to do it..I think I'll remove it later)
I only have one screen, no virtual pages etc (yet!). The Quote of the day thing is funny, it auto sizes according to the size of the quote. So you get some long ones that autosize to like 3pixels high. Looks absurd
Has anyone gotten around to ripping the treo 700w rom yet? I'd like to have a look at their contacts dialer.

Wisbar Advanced Desktop will also let you put a shortcut to a phone number. Then I use vijay's tool for email and SMS.

The fullscreen technique is not entirely compatible with WM5 yet. I've not had enough time to get it out yet. Chakra will tell you all about it.

My rlToday skin for 96 dpi

I made a super simple skin for my Athena to organize my today screen better. I thought it might be vaguely useful to others so here it is. The items aren't perfectly lined up and uses no images. It currently has the date, calender, time, 5 applications, sms, email and missed calls counters. I may add tabs, weather and other stuff one day.
The skin is the top part:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}

Neat Ta!
Changed it around a bit, by swapping the date and time, so that it stills shows the time in portrait and then shrunk it to 110 to fit everything into my start screen.

Sorry for the newbie question, but where should these files be put? I've tried dropping them in the Windows directory and then going to Settings/Today to see what appeared. Nothing did.

Install a softkey app that will change those..
this looks exactly like PocketCM, but costs $20. Why would anyone use this?
Cause FunContact has more Options! Language Support and so on...
Also it'll be linked to other Programs from VITO...For example you open funcontact and open a contact...there is a sms button..when you press it, VITO sms-chat is starting!
And Pocket CM doesn't support Korean language.
I like this skin for the history where is says which type of call it is outgoing, incoming or missed on the right side not left.

This is an old review but i prefer that skin.
I would also like to see some custom skins for this appy. Preferably one that does not have that annoyingly long splash screen when the app launches and is maybe more vista or diamond styled.

Dude:
1. It may LOOK like PocketCM, but it's more stable (on my phone anyway).
2. If people want to fork out $20 (or in my case, $40, since I bought the suite), it's our friggin' business.
Next time, don't waste other people's time reading a lame posting in a thread that has nothing to do with what you're talking about. Epic fail on your part.

Kessler's Dialer Skins

I'm repeating my post from ppcgeeks, but I thought some people might appreciate them.
Well, I spent some time and made up a few different colours in 2 styles.
These are optimized indexed colour images so they take up as little ram as possible.
Once you install a cab do a soft reset. Feedback appreciated!
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
*note* These cabs make the following change on your phone. They overwrite the following files in the windows directory: Assets_dialer_Normal.bmp and Assets_dialer_Pressed.bmp , that is all.
Since there is no uninstaller, if you plan on going back to your old skin you should make a copy of those files. For anyone that wants to go back and doesn't have those files, the white and black original skins are available.
Using Total Commander copy the original files to the windows directory. Allow it to overwrite the existing files and then do a soft reset.
* I am not responsible for your phone blowing up, spontaneously combusting, insulting your in-laws or calling ex-girlfriends when you get drunk and should have been out with Ty and Mike that night anyways.

Hi,
Very nice, your last ones (White & yellow) are great !
Thanx,
Thanks a lot.
I will keep it on my phone.
WOW Wonderful job...so neat and clean
Best past is that they don't eat up memory. Its simply changes just 2 bmp files. Really good job
Wish if you can also change buttons when the number is dialed. I mean buttons of Call history, Mute, Notes, Speaker, and End button.
Screenshot of the buttons as below

I have no plans to do the in call screens. Sorry..
Thanks for all the feedback
Simple and useful - it allows the phone skin adjust to the color of the bars. I like to change the colors, currently I use the glossy blue...
Ciao

Amazing job dude, works great! THANKS A LOT!
Very good job! Thx!!!

T-Mobile TP2 - MyFave TF3D Hack - Display both Clock (aka Home) & MyFaves in TF3D

In order to show both the Clock aka Home tab & MyFaves tab in TF3D, edit the following registries;
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\Manila:Manila://home.page.hidden
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\Manila:Manila://myfaves.page.hidden
Both are DWORD's, 0 to show, 1 to hide.
Screenshots (NOTE: I don't have SIM Card in, I hacked the registry to make it show & most likely why the Contact Icons are messed up);

"lightbox_next": "Next",

You must have the MyFaves Service on your account otherwise the updater disables the app's GUI & any part of the app itself from launching which is most likely why you don't see settings & also why you never saw the page.
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\HTC\My5\SMSC\CmdGet\StateRequest]
"ClientUIOnOff"=dword:00000000
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\HTC\My5\SMSC\CurrentState]
"ClientUIOnOff"=dword:00000000
Means GUI is turned off. Changing to 00000001 should make it display.
Hi,
i am working now around 2 month on that.
Not the whole time ;-). But sometimes i
hacking my registry very deep and i find
some nice things.
MyFave can be found multiple times here
on XDA. So after my investigation in had
have a nive mY5 screen. Deinstalled yet,
but i think i will startup again to share some
things here !?....
Edit 16:06 - 30.09.2009:
Actually i working on it ;-). And you don't need the service from the great T.
I will prepare the app on a way that you don't need this service. On the TP2
teher is a favorite page but this is a nice to have page for TF3D.
