HTC Home Extra (6tabs) + HTC Home Customizer for WM5/6
 

Requirements: PPC WM5/6
Overview: I found it in another forum.........
Has just spent some time to re-packaged into new cab file
"Helmi - HTC Home (6tabs)", "emunutz - HTC Home Customizer 0.8b"
In the re-packaged,
1. Has merged some extra program executable files.
2. Self-created some Windows Mobile control panel link files.
So I've decided to call my re-packaged version as "HTC Home Extra" '
Both program has running fine on my Asus P535 on WM5 and the free upgraded to WM6 operating system.

HTC Home Extra function :

1. Can be installed on WM5 and WM6
2. Created a new "HTC Home extra" folder in "Start Menu > Programs" folder
Inside this folder contained some self created WM5/6 control panel Settings links.
These including the very useful "Running Programs" link that belong to, "Memory" function has been inserted onto the HTC Home "Launher" tab.
Activate this link will provide you the "Running Programs" function that allow you to instant stop a selective or all running programs in the background which most of the WM programs could not stop from running by pressing the X button in the program windows.
This has similarity function as the "HTC X-Button, Task Manager" closing program action.
3. Has merged the "SoftReset and TaskManger v2.7.0.1" program into "HTC Home extra" folder too.

HTC Home Customizer 0.8b extra files :
1. Has gotten all the Background, Clock Theme... files integrated into my re-packaged version. So everybody need not use this program "Download" function to re-download all the extra package files 1-by-1.

2. Installed this program on,
Phone memory, would take about half a minute to startup.
Memory card, would take about half 4~5 minute to startup.

What program(s) are you using for the SMS and missed calls? It looks hot!!!

umm sorry... still newbie.. does it support VGA devices ? i'm using Dopod 900

It looks like he is using Phone Alarm which can be found here:

SPB Phone Suite is another similar program that I use and it works well. Here's the link:

I prefer SPB Phone Suite but it's really just a matter of preference. They are both very good programs.

Hope that helps :mrgreen:

I have a question as I just got the Mogul. I have installed the 6 tab version of HTC HOME and the 8b customizer. It seems I can only get some of the functionality working. No matter what I do, I cannot get the clock to change fonts although I can get the weather icons to change to that 'Stardock' format. I have alreadt uninstalled both apps (with softboots in between) and reinstalled them one at a time with soft boots in between. Nothing. Anyone have any thoughts? You can PM me if it will keep this thread cleaner. Thank you.

works on my treo
 

FYI: This DOES work on my Treo 700wx. I didn't need anything additional to install either!

I haven't had any problems with it for 24 hours. Runs great! I have been looking for a HTC Home plug in for the treo!!

The only thing I have noticed is that when making/recieving a call, the Home plugin is covering the call details, so you can't see call duration or who you are calling... is that the "Active Call" thing that was added?

Question on how to install these file on my mogul. i download the 2 files on to my mogul from the post and i cant unzip them . is it because they are .rar.if so how can i convert them via my mogul? and also i already downloaded and installed these Windows Mobile 6 & 6Tab Home Plugin . do i still need these if i get the other 2 files to work. im sorry for the noob question this is my first ppc. thanks inadvance

You can get pocket rar or win rar for your phone to open the files than install the cab files from there.

i downloaded pocker rar but it says "pockettrar3171b1 "is not a valid pocket pc app. what can i do to make it work or wher can i find another version to download???

That SPB Phone Suite is tight.

Can someone post a mirror or something? I can't download them.

word dead link

Does anyone know how to disable the alert pop up's that alerts you when you make a setting?

Why would you use PhoneAlarm or SPB Phone Suite if you have the Home "Home" Screen with the emails, SMS, etc on it. I'd love to use SPB again much better at keeping track but how do you get rid of the Email, SMS on the HTC Home screen?

Using the 6tab on a mogul wm6, When I select the ringtone name in the sounds tab, it brings me to the phone settings menu (roaming, tty, etc..) and not the sounds/notifications menu. anyone know if theres a reg entry or file to edit this minor annoyance?

How can I get win rar or pocket rar

Can you post the links to the forum vs. having to go through rapidshare?

Just search for pocket rar and download it on your computer first. After it is on your computer plug your phone in so it connects to active sync, then just double click the file you downloaded for pocket rar and it should install it on your phone.

How do I get my taskbar to look like that, with the different Windows icon? It's absolutely amazing.

Also, how do I get rid of tabs? I'd like that bar shown in the second picture, the one with the Friends | Messages/Email | BTon | WifiON. Thanks for any help.

Thank you thank you thank you! I absolutly love this setup. It realy brought life out of my phone. I use the Sprint Mogul. Out of the box it leaves alot to be desired. This is the best compilation I have installed yet. It runs PERFECT. I have found no bugs period so far. I had no problems installing it at all. It was very easy. No lag. Awsome menue options. Everything I could ever want and its free.

Count on a donation from me thats for sure.

Can 6 tabs run on a touch?

I downloaded the HTC Home Customizer and everything works/looks great except how do you get ride of the title bar with date and time at the top, and the lower bar with the scrolling options for Owner, Voicemail, and additonal applictaions?

Thanks,

I am wondering this myself as well, plus would like to be able to get that Vista looking taskbar.

Hi, can u tell me how to get my mogul to look like the one you are talking about. That is awesome - I am ignorant about these things. Have had the phone and all for 6 months and had no Idea that it could look like that. PLEASE HELP.. AWESOME

help please
 

could you send me the link or tell how to put those on my phone

Lookin to customize
 

I tried some websites and i cannot find the htc customizer for free. i have a 6800 wm6 can you set a place up so i can download a cab file for my phone.

The customizer in the link in the first post is free. :scratch:

Help!!!
 

I loaded this customizer on my phones mem. card (HTC xv6800 Verizon).I have the HTC home plugin already installed...When i click on the customizer file it says"There is no application associated with "HTC-Home -Customizer(1).0.8b.NewForce".Run the program application first,then open this file from within the application".I have no idea what this means.Sorry for the "green"ness here but ANY help would be appreciated....THANKS in advance wadeey@msn.com

All i can say is wow, works great :mrgreen:

Unrar the file you downloaded from the first post, then copy the resulting cab file to your memory card. Click on the cab file on your phone and it will install. :)

Is there anywhere i can view and Dl more clock/tab icons ?

Why doesnt this work for my ppc 6700 sprint phone?

I'm curious... Has anyone had any of the same problems that many people have been having with this plugin? (i.e. phone freezing/locking up...etc...)

-Touche'


EDIT: Of course... I was all excited because this was not freezing my phone up. Unfortunately, you cannot change the TAB ORDER at all. It gives you the option, then says it has changed it, but once the plugin loads, it just stays the same. It's actually not a big deal; I'm just really anal about the order of things on my today screen...

I've read that a lot of you are having issues with the tabs and plugins. Well not to be funny but havr any of you tried to soft reset? That might be all you need to rid yourself of the headaches.

Yeah, I've tried that. I normally do a soft-reset after installing ANYTHING just to be safe. Doesn't seem to help anything. I just wish I could get ANY version of this to work, cause now my Mogul looks bare as hell compared to how it looked when I had all this working correctly.
