Can someone tell me how to use the HTC Home customizer?

[reallyrob]

One other thing I forgot to ask is in the old rom, it had settings to tell the ppc where to store things, like when surfing the cache stored on the memory card and in email all attachments went to memory card....where do I find the settings for this now? I'm not so worried about email attachments...mainly looking for the setting to store the cach on IE on the sd card.

I just had one minor thing that I experienced. Does anyone else notice that the volume is lower on Mobile 6 than 5? Are there any registry hacks that will increase the volume on Mobile 6 that would work on this phone? Fantastic job Helmi_C. Thank in advance to anyone who can help with this issue.

I found this www.htc.com/flash/TyTN%20II%20e-learning/HTC%20TyTN%20II%20e-Learning.htm. Even though this link is for the TyTN, it applies to the HTC Home plug-in. Put your mouse pointer over HTC Home and select one of the five items items listed (Home, Favorite People, Weather, Launcher & Sound). Once you select one of these five, click on the Next button towards the bottom to start the training.

Edit: I also noticed another thread about the HTC Home Customizer http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=6355.

Anyone have any input on how to get the character count back on text messages?

Noticed this too... would love to see an answer.

I did some comparing last night w/ my roommate's 6700 that we hadn't upgraded yet. I found this key on both devices:

HKLM\System\Inbox\Handlers\ComposeBodyCount={c59db 2e9-601c-423b-8bf3-352be01b89ba}

However, the corresponding "{c59db2e9...." Key was NOT in HKClassesRoot on my upgraded WM6 device. So I tried exporting that key from HKCR on his and importing in onto mine, reset the device and still no character count.

Unfortunately he had to work today and took his phone with so I can't keep playing with both... But maybe that will point someone else in the right direction?

Ok, I have a Sprint PPC 6700 with the stock WM5. It also has the same classid listed as above.
The registy entries under HKCR\CLSID\={c59db2e9-601c-423b-8bf3-352be01b89ba} are:

Default = "HTMLNote Compose Body Count Handler"
\InProcServer32\Default = "htmlnote.dll"
\InProcServer32\ThreadingModel = "Free"

My guess would be if you duplicated these entries and copied the htmlnote.dll to the new OS it just might work.

Firstly, thanks Helmi & all involved for all your hard work, it is much appreciated!

I've been running this WM6 ROM since Fri, and everything is great, only 1 small problem I am having, it's the same problem I had running the 1.0.4 kitchen, where weatherpanel & Windows Live (messenger) do not play nice together. On my first flash I had everything setup & installed (including Live) prior to installing WP, with no problem. The I installed WP, it ran fine until I soft reset, then it would not boot, it would hang @ the WM screen. Multiple resets, never would boot. Hard reset and setup & installed everything w/o Live, all is good.

Thanks again.

Does anyone else notice that this ROM sometimes has a problem recognizing that it is charging in a non-OEM device (namely a car charger). I didn't have a problem until yesterday, when I had to reset no less than 10 times in a two-hour span. I also noticed that if I reset while it was connected to the charger when it finished rebooting the OS determined that the battery was at 10% and gave me critically low battery warnings. At the time, the battery had no less than a 60% charge- probably more.
