CHome/Titanium Modifications - Adding Panels

[Hafrust]

My day tomorrow is pretty much free, so I'm gonna be playing with this stuff a lot. I have no experience in xml, but I'm going to see what kind of damage i can do. lol

Can anyone fill us in on the process for this? It's the only change I want to make and can't figure it out.

BTW, after trying the weather add-on I had to remove it because it moved the Wi-Fi name to just above the "test" slot.

So close, yet so far...

I haven't found a way yet, with the exception of making changes prior to cooking the ROM. I'm not sure what you mean by Wi-Fi name? I don't have anything pertaining to Wi-Fi on my home page.

That was the benefit in that extra effort. The way you currently have it set up, where it's one or the other, I think you can get the icons to be displayed by editing your cpr's at the Operator Services Expanded section and change "Icon" to "Image 1". If you are using the GUID of cwelcomecenter, you would also need to edit them at the CWelcomeCenter Expanded section and change "Icon" to "Image 1".

Also, if you are using the "launcher" panel, you can edit it's name in CHome Configurator. I have mine changed to "programs" and have pages added for my frequently used programs. That was why I wanted to keep that as well as adding a Contacts panel.

i did all of this... followed option 2 word for word... still having problems

What problems? Exact same as before?

changed the .cpr files to include the settings panel, but still no dice - the registry GUID was not sticking - i typed in the guid from the settings panel to the contacts panel and soft-rest my phone - but the contact dialer panel was still not showing up - and my contacts dialer GUID was reset to the clinks panel...

how can i make that GUID stick in the registry ????

Are you copying the GUID to HKLM\Security\CHome\Default Settings\Custom Panel Name? Or are you trying to copy it to HKLM\Software\Microsoft\CHome\Custom Panel Name? Whatever GUID is in HKLM\Security will override the one in HKLM\Software.

Go to HKLM\Security\Default Settings\Contacts and post what value you have for the string in GUID.

i got it
i see what was happening. the one in "security" was actually changing the one in "software"... just took the one from the welcomecenter in security and put it in the custom panel in security and it worked thank you so much for the help

also: myshinynewtouch, i will address your question when i get home from work (sorry, i'm in a hurry!)
