Contacts on main TF3D tab ? - Touch HD General

Hello people,
I was wondering if it's possible to have your contacts show up on the main TF3D tab instead of going there and pushing contacts.
Do i have to link a photo to the contact to do that ?
Thanks in advance !

You can use HD Tweak (in My signature) to assign left and right soft keys to link to contacts then you can go straight to contacts

Just to add to ozmoran's comments. HD Tweak does change the soft keys on manila 2.0 & 2.1, but it doesn't work on manila 2.5.

Unfortunately this isn't possible at present. You are restricted to amount of contacts on TF3D Contact tab and you cannot get to rest of contacts by swiping left/right on TF3D

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,
Eth
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?.....

Edit Manilla for iContacts "Burt Edition"

I was wondering if anyone would know how to edit the Manilla softkey to point to this app?
So that when you scroll through to the "People" Tab, and you have the option for "All People" would it be possible to point that to iConfig?

Does it replace the default contacts interface on the Diamond or work along side it?
Also - and I have tried to find the answer out myself - what is the difference between the Burt and standard edition?

The Burt edition is configurable and skinable, it has many more features.
It was only this morning i tryed both versions, i uninstalled the standard edition straight away.
I would recommend using the Burt Ed.
Also it does not replace the default contacts, it runs in along side
Thanks for the reply mate. I kinda wish it did replace the normal contacts interface, what's the point of having two contacts directories? Hmm...

You can do as follow:
Remap Manila softkeys:
HKLM/Software/HTC/manila/
HomeLSKPath, which is the left softkey (Standard = Phonepad)
And
HomeRSKPath, which is the right softkey.
If you change these with the location of the programs you want to link to, and simultaneous change the names:
HomeLSKText = Left softkey text
And
HomeRSKText = Right softkey text.

Use SSMapa http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=407777&highlight=ssmapa

This makes the All Contacts on the contact page start iContact

Thats the point of this thread, so that when you do press contacts it starts icontacts not the normal one.

I disagree...
iContact thread is located - i think - on General/Development and Hacking...therefore it iso not a Diamond' specific thread.
So, for me it is reasonable to discuss this issue with TF3D/manila forum

[REQ] People Tab Alternative

Hi all
I tried to search, but i didnt find anything.
I dont like the "people" tab, where i have to scroll trough my favorite contacts. I would prefere, i could directly access to the favorites contact, without scrolling (like the programm tab or like the action screen).
But i still want to keep TF3D...
Do anyone has an idea or knows how to solve this issue?
Thx mates,
gt
i dont know how to solve this but this is what i did
i installed icontact and i have it maped on the right softkey at the home tab.
it opens very fast, looks nice and is very finger friendly. There is a favorites tab as well but it does take 2clicks (1open icontact, 2 click on favorites) so not exactly direct
hope this helps
Thx Giannis86
Sounds good for me. Still much better as the actual solution.
I will give it a try...
actually i do have an idea now..
i just spent some time modding the actionscreen skin. I think it would be possible to fix the shortcuts to a contact (i need to do some research on how to do this ofc)
so, IF this is possible, you could have 9 contacts showing at the same time (i suppose more is possible if you made the icons smaller but its a lengthy process)

there is a program i used some time ago while making a theme for battery status that enabled me to dial from shortcuts.
usage:
dial.exe xxxxxxxxxxx
but it would require some aditional tool to configure, or some text editing.

I would also prefer something like this. Instead of People just have a tab called "Contacts" and you can scroll up and down with the TF3d movability instead of going into the actual contacts program which is so slow.

Any solution for this request?!
I've found the easiest solve to this is to use iContacts Burt Edition 6.4.5 and map it to the right or left softkey on the homescreen. Then get TF3D config and remove the People tab fom manilla. You can set favorites with photos in icontactBE and you can configure it to open directly to the favorites list first with the iContact Config. tool.

At the moment am using Resco Contact Manager. I think it's really not bad, but there are many thing included, it isnt just a replacement for the people tab.

Favorite shortcuts in home tab

Hi all.
I'm new on this section, I've just bought my Leo
Flashing to official 1.48 ROM (HTC), I've experienced just one problem : I can't delete shortcuts I've placed on home tab... I've installed 4x4 rows favorite tab from this forum, is it the problem ? Have I to delete this ? This cab has some known pb on Leo ?
Please help me
Thanx to all for your answers !
OK, I've uninstalled the "Vovichek_Jamrecords 16 TT UPDATED.cab" to get back to 3 rows... and now I'm able to delete shortcuts. But I'm still on 3-rows (9 buttons) in home tab.
Is there any way to get 4-rows or 5-rows buttons on home tab ?
On my Touch Pro 2, with Valkyrie ROM, I've 5-rows in Sense 2.5 ...
No one on this section use any cab to get mroe buttons on home tab ?
Please share your experience !
I've got 5x4 on mine, and it seems to work fine. I can remove links without issue, and contact images work too.
You can get it here...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=591333
You need "Vovichek_Jamrecords_20shcut_m2525.cab"
thanks ! =)
No problem mate
I've one minor graphical bug with this cab : when synchronizing my contacts with facebook, the "facebook" (F) icon near my contact's shortcuts is toooooo big, so I can't read the name of my contacts, because this icon is over it.. did you have this pb too ?

I've seen a thread about that and did mess about with some of the icons to see if I could fix it, but to no avail. (I've just had a search, and can't find that thread, but it is there somewhere!)
I personally don't have contacts on my quick links. I'm happy with the people tab being 1 tab along and just use that instead.

tried keyswop but it didnt work for me
managed to get it working with diamond tweaks but it only had a set amount of programs to choose from, i wanted 'HTC people' version of contacts but it only listed the windows mobile layout of the contacts... yeah i know i am being a bit picky!!!!
is there any way of adding htc people to the list?

You may try HDTools or Advanced Config aswell, I remember it worked for me when I had WM6.1, but should work also with 6.5, since the registry keys are the same in that area.
EDIT: I thought that it wouldn't be very smart to install a whole app just to get one tweak..so I made a little .cab that should link the Left Soft Key to Contacts. Tested and working on my device, I hope it works for you!
Install on your device (not SD) and soft reset, that's it. To revert to previous configuration just uninstall the .cab in the usual way.
That may help You forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3292483&postcount=2
thanks for the ideas i will try them out.
This forum is awsome and thanks to everyone for taking the time to reply.

I'd go for FdcSoft SoftkeyAppletEx.cab it's free and simple a real WYSIWYG application
