CHome/Titanium Modifications - Adding Panels

This thread was created so that the various 6.5 ROM threads don't get unnecessarily cluttered. For those of you that do not know what this is, CHome/Titanium is the default Today plug-in in WM 6.5. All credit goes to the developers over at XDA (showaco, lpaso, tlogix, drkfngthdragnlrd). I'm just the messenger here, they've done all of the hard work.

Everything posted here is confirmed working on 21500 builds of 6.5.


Titanium Weather Updated 4/14/09: Version 3a released.

Original Thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...51#post3304751 (Released by showaco)

*Note: Showaco's version is for VGA. QVGA users can get Titanium Weather from mnemonique here.

Installation and Setup Instructions:
  • Disable Titanium (Start>Settings>Today>Items>uncheck Windows Default).
  • Install TitaniumWeather_v3a.cab.
  • Soft reset.
  • Re-enable Titanium.
  • You will now have a panel titled "Titanium Weather". Scroll down to it and tap the right soft key, which is "Menu".
  • Select your options in "Forecast Options/Setup", and "Panel Display Options".
  • Go back to the main menu and select "Run Full Update and Exit".


Titanium Customizer


Original Thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=497232 (released by lpaso)

This gives you the ability to change the order of your panels and enable/disable them. It's pretty straightforward to use.

Instructions:
  • Install lpasoTitaniumCustomizer.CAB.
  • Disable Titanium (Start>Settings>Today>Items>uncheck Windows Default).
  • Open Titanium Customizer. You will see a popup reminding you to disable Titanium plugin. This popup will come up even if you already have it disabled. Just tap "OK".
  • It's pretty straightforward from here. The only thing that really needs to be mentioned is that the "Clock" panel needs to stay in the fourth slot, otherwise all of the panels will be misaligned vertically.
  • NOTE: You can also re-order the panels in the registry instead of using this program. When editing the registry (HKLM\Software\Microsoft\CHome\ExtensibilityXML), the panels will not be misaligned if the "Clock" panel is out of the fourth slot.


CHome Configurator


Original thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=393104 (released by tlogix)

This program was designed for Smartphones, so it does not work completely. You can use this program, along with a couple of other edits to create your own custom panels. Please note that there are some limitations. Detailed instructions on creating your own custom Panels can be found in post 2. The following instructions are just an example of how this program works. I repeat, this is just an example.

Instructions:
  • Install CHomeConfig.cab and CHomeConfig-IconPack.cab.
  • Disable Titanium (Start>Settings>Today>Items>uncheck Windows Default).
  • Open CHome Configurator and you will see a listing of all of the panels in CHome.
  • Tap on "CLinks".
  • Select Menu>Panel>Customize, and it will open up a new screen.
  • Select Menu>Page>New, and a new page will be created.
  • You have a couple options from here. You can either manually input all of the information, or you can use a template. I recommend templates because they make it so easy. There are templates for launching a new application, contact dialer, and internet links.
  • After you have set up your pages, and want to save and exit, you will need to tap Menu>Exit>and confirm save changes. If you do not do this your changes will NOT be saved.
  • Re-enable Titanium.
