WM 6.1 Upgrade.

[Miris]

I just upgraded my HTC Mogul to WM 6.1 and I dont have the today screen that is showing on all the demos...

What is wrong?

Any insight anyone? am I missing something...

How can I fix this?

Thank you for all your help...

Well, I had a today screen issue after my upgrade as well. I have been running the snazazy HTC HOME (the one with the big clock) until now. After my update to 6.1 the HTC Home plugin turns my sprint mogul into a brick. Completely unresponsive to anything short of a hard reset...not all to happy about it all. Anyone else run into this?

Particular versions of the HTC Home plugin don't work with WinMo 6.1. If you download the HTC Home Customizer (www.pocketemu.com), and download the Plugin from that program (uninstall any HTC Home Plug you have, download and install HHC, and it will download HTC Home Plug for you automatically)

As for the first post, the home screen you were likely seeing was for Windows Mobile 6.1 Standard. As a pocket PC with a touch screen, we use Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional.

what exactly is missing from your screen that you want from the demo screens?

I also have a mogul with the same problem with the today screen. I'm running 6.1 professional and I still have the old today screen. Is there a step I'm forgetting in order to fix this?

Ok so what about this...If this version of the Today Screen is not available to the Touch phones is there a way to change the look of the TODAY screen.... and not just the background pic...other then themes!!!!

I am being stubbiorn and I WANT THE TODAY SCREEN I SAW ON THE DEMOS!!!

Have a look at the Manilla 2D Touchflow thread in the upgrades forum. It completely changes the Today screen. You could also look into SPB Shell, or Throttle Launcher.

As far as I know, there's no way to get the WinMo Standard version of the Today screen on a PPC
