I did an abortive backup using Sprite today and after realising it had
finished and the phone was re starting,I noticed that Sense hadn't started
I am left with just the Win Mo,can anyone advise me how to turn Sense back on,
I've tried a search but maybe I'm asking the search box the wrong thing
cos nothing helped.
Thanx in advance...
Start menu>Today>Items tab and make sure HTC Sense is checked.
go to start menu, then settings, then today, there go to the items tab(it at the botom), and make sure to check HTC Sence.

Thanx for the quick reply Paten,
Do you mean to look on the Start screen,because when I follow Start
and press on Today it is sending me straight back to the Today screen... ?
Am I missing something in your advice ?
I have tried looking in File explorer at the Start menu in Windows folder
and only see 2 options Programs and Settings.
The settings folder appears to be empty and I don't see a Today in Programs.
That's what happens when I try to remember things from memory. I forgot the settings part. My apologies. So it would be Start Menu>Settings>Today> Items Tab and make sure HTC Sense is checked.

Phewww !!
Thanx so much An0n1mUs that cured it,held my breath and there it was again...
Next question would be why the hell would that happen during a back-up ?
Cheers Paten,my memory is pretty shot these days as well lol
frankly i dont know, im still a novice in using this phone. but the good thing is that u got your sense back.
Well we'll see if any of the resident guru's will see this and think of a
possible reason this might have happened.

Im Running Htc Home Under One Of My Ultimate Launch Tabs, And Everytime I Soft Reset My Touch, Ultimate Launch And Htc Home Pop Up On The Screen, Which Means I Have To Go To The Today Screen And Uncheck The Htc Home Tab Each Time. Can Someone Help Me Out And Let Me Know Why This Keeps Happening, Because I Set Ultimate Launch To Only Open The Htc Home Tab On Startup. I Dont Get Why It Shows Up Twice.
i have htc home as a plugin of UL and it works. Sorry dont know
Do you mean on starting there is HTC Home and also UL working although you disabled the HTC Home for the Homescreen ?
May it would help to install UL new ? (dont forget to safe the .ini file of UL)
I get what your saying so basically you have 2 htc home screens coming up. Since htc is being enabled on startup in the today screen I would think it may be the version of htc home but I dunno. It could depend on your device and what os your running also.
Ultimate Lunch, Well there would be Steak and Potatoes and probably Natalie Portman..... Umm what? Oh Launch? Ok My Mistake...
So you have HTC Home IN Ultimate Launch. But you get to. If its Enabled in Ultimate Launch, then Go to your Today Screen Settings and make sure it isn't Checked in there. Just see what happens there.

using a rom from ppcgeeks...
http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=20605
can you suggest a better rom to flash to? i cant seem to find the most basic 6.1 rom, im trying to customize it myself
I don't suggest ROMs, too much personal opinion. Maybe you can try installing Schaps AdvancedConfig and Doing what I recommended for Marty. I can't remember the RegSettings and too Busy to Look but I wonder If that maybe why.
this is sort of a "duh" comment but have you used HTC Home Customizer or or any other program to unlock HTC home? If its locked that might be the problem.
JimmyMcGee thanx for trying to help but i have tried locking and unlocking home but still same thing.........i think i have narrowed it down to weatherpanel? just did a hard reset ...started installing my cabs and i think it started happening after weatherpanel was installed...
WeatherPanel does cause some issues under UL. I had the exact same issue. Once I installed, it it would hang for a long time any time I made changes to the UL config. I kept restarting it cuz I thought it was hung. BUT a couple of times, I let it play out and didn't soft reset. After a couple of times of "letting it run through" without resetting, then it just stopped being a problem. I can't explain it. ANd I can't guarantee it will stop happening for you. But now I have WP in UL with NO issues...
UL doesn't start after hard reset
Hi, could someone tell me what am I doing wrong?
I hard reset my phone.
Previously, I saved the UltimateLaunch.ini on the Storage Card. After reset, I did copy/paste of that file in Program Files/Ultimate Launch.
Next, this is what's happening - I activate UL as a plugin, and it shows distorted.
Then, I dis activate it and activate another one, randomly. It shows on the Today screen, as expected.
But then, when I try to re-activate UL, it doesn't show anymore.
I try to activate any other plugin - no one shows up.
I soft reset - I still cannot activate any plugin, if before reset, UL it was checked. If before reset, I uncheck UL and check something else (Calendar, e.g.), then the Calendar will appear on the screen.
Long story short, if I activate and deactivate UL, it will not re-appear again.
I did not have yet purchased the license - not sure if that has to do with anything.
Could someone help me?

Go into the start menu, settings, today and the items tab. Make sure Sense is off and click OK. Then go back in and make sure Sense is ticked and click OK. This is sometimes enough to fix the problem, as it can sometimes happen when you've just installed something, but it's not that common.
Let us know how you get on.

To be clear...are you talkign about the color of the clock tiles themselves, directly behind the letters? Or the background (wallpaper) on the home tab?
At first I thought you meant the border around the bottom half of the clock, where the weather shows up...but you shouldn't have that on a 6.1 ROM..
the two tone gray background of the clock itself, if it is at all possible without changing the clock numbers. I can swipe my finger "up" and then the numbers on the clock become smaller and the background goes away....thats what im after. and thanks for not railing on me, I may have alot of posts but 97% or more are questions lol but im getting better.

No problem What you're talking about is the clock tiles, and they are certainly replacable with custom ones. The trick is determining exactly what version of TF3D or Sense you have, you'll have to know that to know which custom clocks to look for and download.
Do you have an "About" entry on the "settings" tab? If so it'll tell you what version you have. If you don't see that there, you can just look it up in the registry (I'll show you where)...do you have a regedit app? (Total Commander, PHM_regedit, etc)
this is why i never delve too much into this stuff but am starting to. way too much stuff to keep up with while trying to run my own buisness, thanks for your help
I have winmo 6.1 CD OS 5.2.21052
I dont know what "sence" i have ....if any at all lol.
and all i want to do is make the clock tile transparent or just delete it if possible.

I dug around in some clock files and found this for you to try, there is no guarantee that it will work as i cant test it for you, but i looked at in with CFC gui and it looks promising!
It might be a good idea to back up the same file in your rom,
Untick manila in "home settings" then copy the file using TC or something
retick manila and it should show.
I hope it works for you

Ok yeah I have the same version as Tregrad (TF3D 2.1), and that manila file worked just fine on mine when I tested it...it makes the clock tiles 100% transparent.
However, getting that manila file into the right place on your phone takes a little doing...do you (Tregrad) know how to copy files into and out of your phone's /windows directory?
Maybe someone would be willing to cab that up for you to make it easier...but if not, we can show you how to get it on there and working.

You tested and it works ok? I can cab it up later ( i'm not on pc right now), where does it want to be? just straight into Windows folder? I would have cab'd it staight away but thought someone had better test it first!
so should i wait for the cab or what? or can i just drop the file in the windows directory? and thanks again for your help fellas.

if you can just drop in the windows folder, there's no real need for a cab just makes it more convenient is all! go ahead and try it out i'm dying to know if it works! See if you can find the matching file first and back it up though...I would
ok will give it a shot right now
no change at all hmmm copied orig file and put it in a folder on my pc and "replaced" existing file with the new one and rebooted but nothing happened.

Start...settings...today..items... will get you there
dont even have an option to untick manilla
Ok heres the Cab, sorry for the delay!!
there must be a tick box in "Items" Under today settings, and it will be Manila or TF3d or something HTC related! its been so long since i used this ROm i can't remember
So untick whatever it is and then install the cab then retick and it should have overwritten....Good Luck
ok tf3d is ticked, I am going to try the file thing first then if that doesnt work then i will try the cab, thanks.
nope, none of it worked. unticked, ran cab, wanted to restart - let it do so, restarted then re-ticked tf3d and nothing happened?
should i delete the existing file? if it isnt there then it wont want to run it right and since i just want it gone it wouldnt hurt right?
I have to go for now be back in a few hours. thanks again for all your efforts os!

I have a few apps I cant find lol. Coming from the tp2 there was an all programs tab that was easily accessible?
tap on the start menu, you'll have all the programs there. the last program would be on the very bottom, it doesn't sort them alphabetically.
Yeah I know about the start menu, im talking about every program on your phone alphabetically. On the tp2 it used to be a white screen with a long list of programs. All you had to do was tap all programs.
Thanks for the response.
I'm not sure if you're refering to the list of programs that the file explorer generates. It only has the folders of the programs installed. You may open the file explorer and go to Programs folder in your device or on your storage card. The folders are arranged alphabetically.
Sorry, if I'm not so clear about your concern as I know nothing about TP2.

Dukins, I don't have my HD2 yet so I can't look for it on there, but I do know that if it exists on the phone you'll have to be running Sense to get to it....so, if you've turned Sense off (to run SPB Mobile Shell or anything similar, etc), you'll need to run Sense to get that programs list.
Now, if that doesn't help you get to it, I hope somebody can point you/us to it, because I'll want to know how to find it as soon as I get my HD2

I see. I just got my HD2 last week but as far as I know, there is no such thing in it. The only one it has is the Start Menu that has all the programs, albeit not in list form but in hexagon-pattern listing, and not in alphabetic order.

Yeah that's the same in sense 2.1 (on my TP2)...that list appears when you're adding a quick link, it's just odd that they seem to have removed direct access to it in sense 2.5. I'm sure that's a comment lament among users of 2.5 on all platforms, at least among those who had used it at some point before.
