Connect device to PC. Use Active Sync to move the (unopened/unextracted) CAB file to your device (storage card or if not main memory).
Then on the device use file explorer to find the CAB and tap on it to install it. Choose install to main memory for this CAB.
AND follow above posters advice to ensure the plugin is set to show on the Today Screen.

already done that.

ditched the original link and downloaded schen's version on these very forums. so far so good!

look for schen's HTC Home at pocketemu.com. Then download HTC Home Customizer from the same Link and use it to customize your HTC Home.

2 ways
HHC can do it for you under one of its tabs
or
Go to the weather tab on HTC Home, tap on your city name and change it from the Menu option corrosponding to the right soft key.
Play around with it first and see if you can figure things out.

I downloaded the home plug and schen's cab, but the today screen only appears as the HTC home plug should appear. I tried reinstalling the cab file, but nothing changed. I can't find it under settings.
:EDIT:
I'm not even gonna bother deleting my previous post here. That was dumb of me. I thought I was to look around in the settings... Then I checked programs. You may now bash.

Screen not responding to the stylus?
I can not for the life of me get my stylus to work on my tilt. this is my first touch device but im sure its not hard. i can tap the screen and im fine but when i go to use the stylus it wont respond. could i have disabled something by accident?

Have a screen protector??? May need to adjust the sensitivity. Don't have the exact key, but I know it's in several posts. try filtering your search with the term pressure threshold.

No, it happened to me today too
Tilt w/Duttys latest.
I was reading email, when suddenly the touch screen stopped working. I could use the DPad, but no response to touch. Opened and closed the keyboard, still no response. Soft booted and it went back to normal.

I have had it happen 2 or 3 times on my tilt with dutty previous release. Rebooted and it went back to normal.

The problem is usually related to FTouchFlo, a simple soft reset cures the issue. If you don't have FTouchFlo installed, I'm not sure what could be causing it

I can also say that the issue is coming from touchflo. happened to me twice before so i've just disabled touchflo and hasn't happened since.

Me too!!!

Check out this thread. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=337979
I did everything in it, but sometimes my screen stops and freezes for a few seconds. Sometimes it gets so bad that it freezes like every 20 or 30 seconds when I am typing something using the stylus. I don't think I have touchflow because I never installed it. I just have the stock HTC rom.
Any ideas greatly appreciated.

S2U2 and Voice Dialer

I can't use voice dialer when S2U2 locks phone, is there a way around this? I like the S2U2 application, but when I am driving and need to make a phone call via bluetooth handfree I can't, because s2u2 block the voice dialer.
I did look for a solutions via the search engine and in the s2u2 thread, but no luck thus far.
which device?
which ROM?
which voice dial app?

Thanks for your response,
HTC 8925 (Tilt)
Dutty's Touch AT&t beta 2
Cyberon Voice Speed Dial V1.2 build 070626
The newest version of S2U2 v0.95 offers a solution to this problem by adding the ability to use exceptions to temporarily disable S2U2.
1) Install the new version.
2) Run iLock2 to close the application.
3) Use a registry editor:
Under \HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\A_C\S2U2, find an open ExceptionEXE(0-9) (STRING). I used ExceptionEXE3. Enter the value: "SDDialer.exe" (this is the application that runs when you press the button on your bluetooth headset).
4) Run iLock2 to restart the application and you're done.
Thanks to tompol for discovering this solution. I first tried it by entering the value: "Voice Speed Dial.lnk", but this didn't work.
Hello,
i have another problem with S2U2 on my Kaizer, and i think i created it but cannot get through it. After i did some changes on the S2U2 settings now every time the lock goes on and even if i open the settings i get a black screen and can not do anything. If i press the power on button to turn off the screen and then on, i get the S2U2 screen but frozen, with out any animation! I have tried to remove and re-install the application but i get the same response from the program. Could someone give me some help, because i really like the application but can not use it...
TIA,
Nikos.

did you turn on the directdraw option or safe mode option?
When you uninstall an app, it leaves behind the registry entries. As soon as you reinstall the app, those settings are in affecct again. Uninstall the app, use a registry editor to remove the following key, soft reset, then try to reinstall:
The key to remove is HKCU\Software\A_C
Ok, I had the exact same problem, the problem is indeed with D3D option, you need to disable it. As soon as it is off and the settings are saved, the program works fine once again, and smoother then previous version.
This part is gonna be hard to explain... but here it goes...
First thing to do is run ilock so that when u turn the screen off it doesn't start S2U2.
When you open the settings the screen freezes, like the kaiser crashed, but if you move down and you turn the screen off and on, you'll see the menu scrolled down.
Basically that means u're working blind, changes do occur but u can't see, so the process is to move it down, turning the screen off and on sistematically until u see the d3d option and turn it off, then save it.
Hope I explained myself enough.
Takes some work, but doesn't require registry tweaking and other settings are kept.
Keep posted on results.
Cheers, Esko

Thank you both for your fast and details replies!!!
It was indeed the direstdraw option. It was easier for me to try eskostar's method, especially since i had tried the same blind procedure but i did not figure the trick with running the ilock first!!!
Everything worked out great!!! Now i can use this excellent program again!!!
Thank you again!!!
Cheers, Nikos
I have this problem. When I start S2U2 and miss call screen remains as it is when someone call (caller's number and slide to answer or two buttons with green and red phone). Whatever I push or click nothing happens. So I must softreset or turn off and on my Kaiser. Some tips?
Sorry I dont have that issue. However my problem with this version of S2U2 is when SLide to Answer is Active you can still use the Hardware Keys to answer!
Anyone no how to deactivate the Hardware keys during Slide to Answer?

if any of the apps in the exception list are running, not just in the foreground, even if they are running in the background, then [email protected] will not enable. Check your exception list, make sure none of those apps are currently running, then try again. If you still have issues after that, then it's with S2U2, not the exception list.

Very well done.
Apparently Internet Explorer was still running, and as soon as I closed that it ticked off. May consider removing that key, as I don't see why I would need it.

Good deal, glad it worked for you....
when I install S2U2 (i go thru phases where I want it, then phases of "get it off my Tilt") the first thing I do is remove the exception for PIE.
FYI.... Likewise, if you run any of the Cube or TouchFlo variants out there, you will need to put an exception into the TouchFlo settings for S2U2. What happens if you don't is when you try to slide to unlock (or slide to answer) you end up invoking the Cube or TouchFlo, instead of S2U2. Just an FYI for you....
Thanks for the tip. Am still looking into wicked programs so far, only had it two weeks and it's already been through the mod ringer.

I think my Kaiser doesnt like me. Please help

Hello all!
I have a question about some issues I am having and I am wondering if they are common and can be fixed or I am making a mountain out of a mole hill.
I am running Dutty's DualTouch Rom v4 (which is awesome BTW) on a AT&T Tilt
but I have some issues I am running into:
1. When I type @ I get ! and when I type ! I get @, is this a common thing? it also happens with other keys that I am still finding out about. Can I remap the keys to be correct? Will Shaps Advance config 1.1 do this for me or I am misunderstanding that program?
2. On the home screen from the HTC Home plugin if I go to mail it opens up Outlook just fine, then I go back to the home and check my SMS and it brings it up fine. But when if I check my mail again it defaults to the SMS folder and I have to change it every time to Outlook, is there a fix for this?
3. Touch FLO is always different, if I swipe left I will get contacts. If I swipe left again I might get contacts but I might get something else, I have tried it many times and almost every time its different. Is there a way to make it so whenever I swipe left it always beings up the same thing?
4. If I want to change the Splash screen, do I need to put HardSPL on again and then flash it? or can I just do it now that I have Dutty's on there?
Thanks!

I might be wrong, but I think that is fixed by Tilt keyboard fix.cab (search forums for it).

I thought KaiserTweak has a setting as to what should open up when messaging/email is opened. KaiserTweak is a sticky in this forum.

You might want to confirm it, but I think once you've done HardSPL, you can flash splash screens whenever you want.

I had that saved from before (keyboard fix) I ran it once then I re-flashed and forgot to do it again, I thought that was only good if your keyboard didn't respond to anything at all, I didn't know it helped for that also. I guess I missed KaiserTweak, I will give it a shot.
KaiserTweak has Tilt keyboard fix as far as I remember.
Besides that, there is a Tilt keyboard fix.cab which solves exatcly that - improper key assignment..
I hope you flashed hard spl before you flashed dutty's rom anyway...
Yeah I did use HardSPL and it was successful.
I understand what it does, but once I flashed to dutty's wouldn't it not matter anymore? Or is there a reason done the road that I need it?
Thanks

What is happening to my start menu?

Hi board,
Lately my start menu has been disapearing! I can still see the icons there but any writing listing the program is gone and the background is white. When I do a soft reset everything comes back, but this has been happening daily now! I installed the new ROM from AT&T could this be the issue? Any suggestions to stop this would be appreciated!!
Thanks
Same here
I also had this problem, and i don't use that ROM.
the only thing i notice is that if you go in and change one thing in the menu settings (in settings), ad one program to start menu or take away one.
then you have the right start menu a wile, than the problem comes agen.
and after that my ok button stop working, both the hard key and the one in right top.
did a hard reset and for now the problem is gone, but i have not installd all programs that i had before.
The problem most come from some other software that we both have had installd.
Low_down
are u using slithers C++ cube? Apparantly this can cause this problem. Try uninstalling the cube, or enabling the HTC Large Start menu (that fixed it 4 me).
Ta,
Dave
Do not have C+ cube installed! How do I get the HTC large menu?

Apparantly it is caused by App's havnig a ++ (or maybe +) in their Shortcut.
That was the cause of the problem by Slither's Cube.
Try clearing your recent Items. And removing and shortcuts with pluses in (if any).
HTH.
Cheers,
Dave
I noticed this problem on an emulator after installing the C++ cube. So it shouldn't have anything to do with the ROM or the Kaiser in general.

WinMo 6.1 & IE Problem (updated with more info)

So, I have the default ROM, the only thing I've ever really done on my phone is remove bloatware and instal HTC Home to give my today screen a fresher look. I heard that when you update to Windows 6.1 that the start menu should now appear on the bottom rather than the top left. I'm running 6.1 now and the button has not moved.
Also, my friend has a WinMo phone, on his phone using IE he can go to this website: http://www.digitalfuturesoft.com/dfttsmobilesdk.php and use the text box to enter words and have it synthesized into a sound file that is played through the media player. On my device the text box and drop down buttons never get rendered. His phone has nothing modified to it, at all. So I'm not sure what my phone is missing that his has...
Also, random... even though I don't use the default today screen, I did notice something odd. The top bar that list the date also listed the time. How could I get the phone to just show the date? Or is that just somthing the HTC Today cab did in order to let it function properly?
Thanks!
Edit: As of my last post, I discovered that the text to speech site will render correctly IF I'm connected to my computer via USB/Active Sync. But if I take out the USB and exit out of IE then try to load that site, I again find it never loads correctly.

You can change this with KaiserTweak or PocketToolman.
I forget what website it was, but it listed that MS moved the start button to the bottom. I'll look into the tweak software to edit stuff further.
Now for the issue with IE. Is it missing some sort of Java plugin?
Hmm update.
I've discovered that the only way I can get this site to correctly render is when the phone is connected to my computer through Active Sync.
But when I remove it, close IE and reload it that page no longer renders....
So I hope that helps someone figure out why it's not working when disconnected from USB.
So does this mean theres some setting that I'm overlooking?

TouchFLO 3D on Xperia

Hi guys.
I'm new to the Windows Mobile world and only got my Xperia X1 a couple of weeks back. I want to get the TouchFLO 3D interface on there.
However, I want to use CABs which allow me to switch to the TF3D interface and back out again to Xperia, rather than using a cooked rom.
I've looked around and at first it seemed fairly simple, but then the installation wouldn't work because the file didn't have certification security (or something like that).
I've seen articles saying you have to install older versions first, and almost all seem to point to cooked roms.
Does anybody know of a way to install the TF3D interface from a CAB file, and be able to switch in and out of it, like you can do with Spb Mobile Shell 3.0.1?
I have Spb Mobile Shell 3.0.1 and Spb Weather installed, but I really want the TF3D interface... the weather animations on it are absolutely amazing!
Any help will be very much appreciated. Thanks for your time.

Sonny
If you check out the stickies in this section, one of them is all about programs, panels and tweaks.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=441439
Going through it, there is a specific one about installing TF3D as a cab and then running it as a panel.
Wow! Thanks Zenith.
Just managed to install Touch-IT_Blackstone_Manila.cab and then TF3DPanelInstaller.CAB.
Works a charm. Exactly what I was after.
I'm now going to install Touch-IT_Blackstone_Manila_HD_FULL.cab and see how the applications work.
Thanks again for guiding me in the right direction, very much appreciated.

Issues With Right Selection Button
Not sure if this is a known and shared issue. Is anybody else having the following problem..?
After installing Touch-IT_Blackstone_Manila_HD_FULL.cab, my right-hand selection button (the one above the OK button) is not working correctly. E.g. on the Today screen, it does not take you to 'Contacts'.
The left-hand selection button is fine, and it does correctly take you to the 'Phone' screen.
The right hand button is functioning though, but it seems to just be working like the 'Hang-up' button. If I go into an app and press it, it takes me back to the Today screen, and the app remains open in the task manager.
I got a little worried and decided to revert back to the original setup of my phone by using Sony's update tool. The right-hand selection button began to work fine again. After re-installing Touch-IT_Blackstone_Manila_HD_FULL.cab, I've got the problem again.
I'm guessing this may be down to a registry change. Anybody have any idea if and how you could change this through the registry, and which regkey to amend? Or is there a tweak/fix for this issue?
Any help would be very much appreciated.

this is a known problem for tf3d. correct me if im wrong but all the cabs and cooked roms has this issue. sure you can assign the button in settings but after you turn phone off or reset tf3d it will always reset right button to today.
untick tf3d 1st then extract and paste in windows directory and your problem will be solved. hope that works for ya

ManilaToday.dll Fixed The Issue!
Thanks Himuraken!
The ManilaToday.dll fixed the issue. Replaced the one in my Windows directory and now I don't have to change the button settings after a reboot.
And just for the record, Ipporek, I have Daran's B3 CAB and I was still getting the issue before Himuraken provided me with this ManilaToday.dll.
Problem sorted, now to look at installing the essential software cabs for TF3D. Installed Youtube yesterday, seems to work okay. Will check out some of the others later.

glad it work for you. i forgot to mention that credit goes to the person that provided this in the touch itJe v7 thread. not sure who it was so please forgive me.
Hi, it is my first post in a long time. Now I'm Xperia user.
I tried to download the today.dll but the link is gone. Additionally, my manila is not working: for some unexplained reason the program keeps trying to enter but did not succeed. It starts and then restart without opening.
Can somebody help me? I'm not inclined to try a Rom with manila for in that case I lose the "Ç" key and the letter recognition.
I use the Brazilian Sony Rom version from April 23, 2009.
Thanks, in advance!
Manila not working on Brazilian Xperia
Hi, this is my first post in a very long time. I tried to install this on my Xperia but got 2 errors:
1 - the right hard key problem and the file Today.dll is no more available at the said link
2 - the manila tries to start but does not enter. It keeps restarting but to no avail!
Please, some help is in order! I use brazilian Sony Rom and a cooked Rom is not na option since I would loose the hard "Ç" key and the on screen letter recognizer.
Also, I could not put the "Transcriber" to work.
Thanks
KMur
