I am building a ROM for my ipaq 214 based on build 21898.
When I load the ROM image I get the correct today items.
Now when I go to Settings -> Today -> items tab and change enabled items the today screen is empty.
When I go back to the items tab all items are disabled.
I have been searching trough registry hyves but I cannot find the problem.
Can anyone help me?
Today Customize the appearance of the Today screen and the information to display on it.
Note You will not see the Today screen when the TouchFLO Home screen is
enabled. To display the Today screen, tap Start > Settings > Today >
Items tab, and then clear the TouchFLO check box.

this is on the Touch2 manual...if it happen to be helpful
The problem was a conflict between chome and the classic interface. chome was set to exclusive mode.
I have removed chome from the build because 6.5.0 is a classic interface only version.

I don't know what happens, but I noticed that in Settings-Today-Item I have no TF3D tab to check / uncheck TF3D on Today screen. How can I put it back there?
HOME page within Touchflo changed to a new one with "Today plugins" - and WORKING !!!
I was trying different settings with my HD and managed to change my Touchflo "HOME" page to a different page which can handle all the Today plugins within Touchflo.
Now I have the Touchflo and the first tab is a new tab which can handle plugins => so on my new Manila HOME page I have now Pocket Informant, SPB tasks, SPB weather and Time.... so it's like a normal Winmobile "Today page" with plugins but within Manila and at the place of the original home tab of Touchflo. The hardware "Home" button is directing to the new plugin ready homepage. So everyting works as before but my fisrt tab the HOME is much much better than is was before and I still use the Tiouchflo. The original Touchflo Home page I put at the end of the tabs - so its my last tab at the moment but it is still there if I need.
(I'm not an expert so it was result of trying and guessing and using some good programs from others here. Maybe someone more clever described this or a better method already but anyway here is how I did it...)
I have stock English ROM.
1. Installed Singh_s_Tings_HTC_TF3D_15 tabs cab (big thanks for the developer)
2. Installed Manila Today Page cab (MTP_Install_v0.3.3.0.cab) (big thanks for the developer)
=> which is really a great program to have an additional, Today plugin capaple tab within Touchflo. And the page has its own "windows" icon.
3. In Resco (or other) Registry editor => go to HKLM\Software\HTC\Manila\Configuration
=> there I have "folders" numbered from 0 to 14 in my case (as I have 15 tabs in Touchflo).
"0" - is the original Touchflo HOME page (and it can be moved!!!)
"14" - (in my case - but it depends on your page order) is my MTP (Manila Today Page additional tab with plugin capacity).
The number shows/determines the order of the tabs as they will appear in Touchflo. So you can mix the tab order as you wish by re-numbering the folders containing the tab infos.
4. I simply renamed the folder numbered with "0" to 14 => this moved the original Touchflo Home page to the last place in my tab order.
5. And I simply renamed the folder "14" to "0" => and this moved my MTP plugin page to the first tab where the original Manila Home page was.
(did some false numbering in the process not to have 2 tabs with same name to be on the safe side - maybe unnecessary?)
=> Soft reset the HD
So my tab order is now:
0.MTP - with all my plugins (PI, tasks, weather, profiles etc. (works with the HOME button perfectly)
1 Communications
2 People
3 Messages
4 Mail
5 Programs
6 Calendar
7 Internet
8 Weather
9 Stock
10 Photos and Videos (Album)
11 Music
12 Sound Settings
13 Missed calls
14 Original Touchflo Home page
The New MTP HOME tab which is the starting tab now inTouchflo has a built-in softkey named "home" => when you push it it directs to the original Touchflo Home page.
The HTC home hardware button directs automatically to the first tab, which is the new MTP Home page with plugins .....
Now I have Touchflo but with a much better Home page than the original ...and can use all my today plugins for touchflo.
"Screen 12" attached => shows ManilaTodayPage at the place of HOME page
"Screen 13" attached => shows original HOME as last tab.
That's amazing, I've been using MTP for a few days now but I'm going to follow your advice to make it my homepage.
Quick question: Can you tell me what programs you are using for the shortcuts at the top and which is your calendar app?
I'm hoping somewhere to find a list of all software with Today screen plugins so I can pick and choose.
Cheer's buddy
So how do you get the ManilaTodayPage program to display the tasks on the Today page? Mine won't do that, and the option to display in the MTP options is greyed out so it can't be chosen ? I'm using MTP v0.3.6.0 rather than v0.3.3.0.
Thx
Dave
Hi ,
so I'm using the following today plugins within MTP
starting from the top:
1. SPB "Pocket Plus"
The 6 colored icons are expanding for grouping other programs to start
so under each icon there are lot of possibilities to start applications, files, setting etc. When not pushed they shrink to this state back.
2. Inesoft Today plugin (from Inesoft Phone 4) => its a profiler for ringtones + switching on/off bluetooth wifi, ringtone, backlight setting
(its not a standalone prog but part of the Phone4)
3. SPB Time (world clocks)
4. SPB weather (expanding further to show more data)
5. SPB Diary (you can customize it to show appointments, task, mail, birthdays, notes etc )
I use Pocket Informant as PIm manager ( SPB Diary takes the info from PI)
What I really like that from any page I can jump back to this stating home page with the HOME hardware buttons.
So this is my Touchflo home page with screenshots (expanded plugins)
Hi, I have two questons:
1. where do I find this MTP cab?
2. Will it work on a my Touch HD with Dutch ROM?
regards and thanks, kuzibri

thank you.
I installed the 15 tabs program and MTP, and its working on my HD except for the fact that in my registry I do not see in the configuration 14 folders but only 10. So I'm not able to rename folder 14 to 0, etc. Any help - suggestions on how to (re)arrange that.
thanks. kuzibri

Where did you get this?? Google search only brings up THIS thread!
Recently flashed Verizon's stock MR2 ROM with WinMo 6.5 and HTC Sense 2.5 (Manila 2.5.20132227.0). Its growing on me. Definately snappy compared to 2.1, but after a couple days I'm still looking for answers to the following:
-Slide to Unlock: ...every time the screen turns off it locks... is that necessary? Any settings or .cabs that'll give me a little more control of when it locks?
-Start Menu: Where can I get a 4-colum programs .cab for the displayed Start Menu programs... OR have the start menu display the standart WinMo 6.5 start menu. The .cabs I had for 2.1 don't seem to work.
-Programs tab: Where can I find a .cab to add a "Programs" tab back into the slider icons? The one I had for 2.1 (again) doesn't work. Also changing the registry entry in HKCU\Software\HTC\Manila doesn't work, either ("programs tab is hidden" from 1 to 0).
Any help would be appreciated.
yes you can change your lock screen settings...
It'll be somewhere in your settings... I cant tell you where as I myself never use it. I went into mine and saw in settings\system there was something called lock config so I'm sure your set up would have something like that.
the start menu... well in 6.5 they have the honeycomb menu. I think I read back a long while ago about a way to make it go old school I just havnt seen in it a long while... same with the programs tab. They took that out of 2.5
my advice... go to this thread and read about the add on and then add it. It adds SO much funtionality to sense it just makes the standard one look stupid
[Manila Mod][19-Jun-2010] Co0kie's Home Tab v1.8.5
then you'll need this to do the changes
[APP] CHTEditor v1.8.5.1 [UPDATE 19-JUN-2010]
note the screen shots in the links. You can have any number of layouts and "pages" that swipe up and down for different short cuts right on your home screen. Different clocks, notification bars etc etc.
Options for Start Menu Replacement WM 6.5
-Lock Screen: You should be able to locate lock config under Settings or Settings--->System (However, if you decide to use the aforementioned Cookie Home Tab Mod, the lock config is modified using Cookie Home Tab Editor under the Lock Screen menu.
-Start Menu: Try (utak3r's modified Quickmenu and Joe Wilcox's Awesome Start (not free but you may like to try these start menu replacements: Hilauncher and Panoramic Launchpad)
-Programs Tab: Check out this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=619253 and you will see that Cookies Home Tab is probably the way to go...
Hi all
Sorry managed to find the setting
One other question. my fonts dont look sharp. I have been used to the HTC Diamond.
Is this because the screen or touch flo is better on the Diamond than the Mini?
Many kind thanks
Alex
Next time you might want to do a search for this. It's because Cleartype is no enable by default.
To enable it:
- ClearType can be enabled through the Screen control panel but HTC disabled it.
- To enable the Screen control panel, use a registry editor: go to "\HKLM\ControlPanel\Pen" then change the "Hide" key content from 1 to 0.
- After a device reboot, the Screen control panel is available under "Sense Settings tab > Menu > More > System".
- After re-enabling ClearType, the text is really much more readable in MS applications such as EMail, Calendar, Contacts, Mobile Office, etc.
This is an easy question for some of you guys but I cant solve it,I have installed SPB mobile shell v3.5.5 and need to type in my owner id but can't find where to.I have looked everywhere.Do I have to do a hard reset and use contacts and "Me" then reinstall all my info or is there an easy way
Heres hoping.

Hi Don, I had this exact issue and firstly it is possible, I did it.
Secondly I may not have done it the slickest of methods but at least this gets you there. I've tried to recall two routes depending upon where you are starting from.
a) HTC Sense UI:
If you are still in the original UI (HTC Sense) scroll sideways to the "Setting" tab. Touch the "Menu" softkey (bottom right) then "All Settings". You should then see a selection of icons from which touch "Today". That will get you to the old Today settings. See below for next steps.
b) SPB Mobile shell UI
If you are in this shell instead, hit "Launcher". You should now see an icon labled "Settings" (else swipe sideways to the second page to see it). Hit that takes you to a screen with more icons including one for "Today" with a cogwheel on the top of it. Hit that takes you to the old Today settings. Now see below.
Today Settings
Once here. Hit the "Items" tab. Remove any tick on the "HTC Sense" option (else the originally Today Screen won't appear later) and then tick the "Owner Info" option (and any others you fancy). Click on "OK" should now get you back to the old Today screen with the "Owner Info" today plugin showing. It can then be selected and the necessary info add. You can then go back into the today settings and re-tick the HTC Sense item if you want the original UI back and not the Today screen. Personally I use the SPB shell and the today screen rather than the HTC Sense.
I did this a long time ago so my recall may be a bit fuzzy for example; if the "Owner Info" isn't visible in the list of Items in the Today settings (it may not be) then you'll have to go into a reg editor (if you are comfortable doing such things) and navigate to :
[Mobile Device\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Today\Items\]
Then ensure that the key "Owner Info" is present (add if necessary) and enable it (disabling "HTC Sense" at the same time as it seems to overide any other selection). If the key is missing (or you don't have a reg editor) and you need help at this level just drop me a line and I'll post a copy of my settings and suggest a few methods of accessing your registry.
Good luck.
Anybody found an easir way?

settings - menu - all settings - personal - owner
Sam,
Thanks but my phone doesn't have "owner" at the end of your sequence. I suspect Don is having the same issue (hence me originally having to go into the reg to get access to it to fix mine as nothing obvious was accessible). FYI this is independent of how I get there (through HTC Sense, SPB Shell etc).
Regards - Mallow1
PS I have an unlocked HD2 (none carrier specific) which looks to have originally been packaged for the German market (I'm in the UK and bought it online)
Just to add ti the conversation, my HD2 does not have the Owner when Igo to Personal either.
Ahh course, my mistake.
Hints tips reg tweaks sticky in Q&A section, tip 5 to unhide that option kindly hidden by HTC.
Thanks Mallow1 That did it,thank you all very much.I went to Today ,items and ticked HTC sense that gave me the chance to go to contacts and add the Me details.
