Please dont kill me....NOOB here and need help with WM 6.1 - Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General

Hey i have the ATT Tilt and i just finally updated my rom from the HTC site for the Tilt to WM 6.1. It took me awhile to switch cause i was used to and happy with what i had with the WM 6.0 and also afraid to screw up my phone. Well i finally did it and it works fine but my question is...is there away to customize the HTC Home on the today screen? When i had my phone at WM 6 i dl the HTC home plug in and HTC home customizer so i can change how the them of the HOME is and also take some buttons away like the music button that i dont use. And also with the customizer i edited so i can have my weather button work because it doesnt have my city in the list. So basically im asking can i dl the HTC customizer that i had from WM 6.0 and use it for WM 6.1 on the HTC Home that it came with? Or is there something else i need?
And i know im gonna get flack but yes i did search the forum and its hard to find exactly what im looking for since everyone has there own version of WM 6.1 and im just using the official one from the HTC site so i want to make sure that i get the right answer and doesnt screw up my phone!
Thanks in advance

You need to search more, weather question I replied in another tread just the other day. Solution is to use http://www.accuweather.com whit your closest city There are alot of info on exactly how you do this somewhere already. For the HTC Home there could not be a cab more discussed I belive.. Really, search. Thats the way you learn as you will bump into alot of other question and solution on other stuff on the way. If you had google this you would have found this on first page: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=319308

Is This Possible HTC home screen on Tilt?

i have an at&t tilt and i want the htc today screen,possible or not?
Yes....
Read.... Been asked and answered many times....
Hint... Check out Flashing a new Rom
sry i dont know much im a SUPER noob
in other words... ROM?? FLASHING?????
Well I won't get into ROM's and Flashing (incredibly large topic), but regarding the HTC Home Plugin, try the attached.
P.S for future reference, I searched for "HTC Home Plugin" to find it..
def flash a ROM to improve your performance x 1,000 compared to stock AT&T ROM.
Will be SOOOOOOOOOO much better!
Yup, I flashed a new ROM on my tilt, and the improvement in performance is amazing. I wasn't sure I was going to keep the tilt because it was unbearably slow and kept freezing up. Now it's fast and fun! I used Alex's home ROM, which worked out great for me as a noob. He included all kinds of great software in that ROM, including HTC home.
New Flash
Did it kill your Push to Talk? I was told by AT&T that it will kill the Push to Talk function.
Why would anyone want to use PTT when it's only for other AT&T customers. Are we the only one's with free mobile to mobile minutes? Seriously PTT sucks. Besides, I think there may be a cab around somewhere.
Why use Ptt
When I am waiting for our passengers to show up, I can make one statement to my crew that the people have arrived instead of calling the Copilot that is in the cockpit, the Flight Attendant that is in the Galley, and the Mech. that is out servicing the airplane. A real help. I will keep looking for the CAB. work around. If you find it please list it here.

Just copy over the PTT files needed from \windows and migrate the registry entries. I did it and it works fine on Alex's ROM. I just had to manually associate the PTT button with the program.
sorry being a noob
sorry for being a noob, but wil the link to the rom flash work for my UK Orange TyTN II?

WM6.1 fav people problems

Alrighty I was really holding out on upgrading to 6.1, but this past weekend I took the dive and flashed my ROM even though I have heard that there was alot of bugs in it. The problem that I am having is that when I have my favorite people set on the HTC home screen that comes with it, the contacts on that list disappear at least once a day. Then I have to go back and set the fav list all over again. I thought it was because of icontact that I have installed, so I took it off. But the problem still occurs. Could this be becuase I loaded it without the bloatware? Any tips on how to fix this?
Another question that I have is that why doesn't the 6.1 upgrade look like the 6.1 on the microsoft website? With the new today screen.
And my last question is if I downgrade back to the original HTC rom that I had version 1.62.502.0 would there be any problems? That one was more consistent for me and I didn't have any problems. And I think I could live without the threaded text messaging. Thanks for reading and thanks for your future help.

of what i've heard that today screen is for Windows Mobile 6.1 Home? (or whatever the basic one is called) not Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional
ohh thanks I didn't know that there was 2 versions. I thought you could pick that today screen in the settings if you wanted too.
Are you using Dutty's WM6.1 ROM?
If so it is a known issue: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=DuttySeriesKaiser
You could try this fix, or look for a newer version of the HTC Home CAB.

I upgraded using the 6.1 ROM from the HTC website.
Whats your take on Dutty's 6.1 ROM pros? cons?
If I downgrade back to version 1.62.502.0 WM6.0 do you think that I would run into any problems doing that?

No problems with the downgrade.
Dutty's ROM's are good, but sadly he now cooks for the Diamond, so no updates coming.
Try a new HTC Home Plugin CAB, do a search and see what versions are out there, and try upgrading.
I'd also suggest a Cooked ROM rather than the stock ones. Give it a try, you'll never go back

the poster was referring to the today screen shown on the windows mobile site.
if we upgrade our firmware on the kaiser or tilt we will not have that because that is an example of the windows mobile 6.1 for different phones. At least that's what i heard.

Manilla - unsure, most roms seem to be manilla

Hey everyone,
Im using an old DUtty's rom (he hasnt made any in a while). I am wanting to flash with something new, but just about every one of the roms these days seem to be Manilla.
My question is, what is it like? at first glance i dont really like the idea of it.
CHeers
EDIT: and are you able to turn it off so it goes back to the htc home or whatnot?
i really like it, im using garmins with the opal dialer, easily customized with all the skins out there, (see development and hacking), much more useful to me than htc home, which i guess got old, just like the cube. my two cents,
Lupe
Thanks.
What about how it lists emails/sms's? does it just use that silly preview where u have ot go through each one? or can you open it to list the emails?
Cheers
Just flash one You can open it to see them all, or you can scrll through them all.
alright, u guys convinced me!
Going to flash one tonight,
any suggestions?
want one that doesnt lag, and landscape works (i use the keyboard for all typing)

HTC Home Customizer on A Stock TyTN II

My TyTN II US Version will be here on 1/07/2009 ( my first converged device). I am stoked to get it. I am trying to get everything ready in advanced. I searched this forum and goggled for about 3 days now. I was not able to find an answer for my question. Dose HTC Home Customizer v1.0 final work on a stock TyTN II WM 6.1 without issues or will I have the same issue as the AT&T Tilt WM 6.1 users? If I need to supply any more info please let me know. Any Help will be greatly appreciated.

If you mean the weather patch, that was an AT$T thing and workarounds are in the forum. Other than that, I haven't come across any problems when I used it.
Thanks for your reply denco7, I am talking about the app that lets you customize the home plug in and get local weather through custom database. I was just curious if it would work straight up or if I would have to pursue some of the work arounds like the Tilt users have to do.
I'm running HHC on a stock WM6.1 rom. No problems at all.

This is good news. Are you using the custom local weather database on HHC 1.0 Final.
I actually don't use the weather tab at all. I have tried it and it works, but can't tell you which database etc etc.
Well, to summarize, installed and changed the HTC home tab to my liking and weather tab did connect and work all as before. Didn't even know there were much weather setting as I never played around with it.
Most excellent. Thank you for all your help. The weather is the feature that I was really needing to work. Once again thanks for taking the time to confirm this for me.
It did not work for me natively on my stock TyTn II. I had to use the same method to get it to work as for the AT$T Tilt. I guess this post is here to serve as reference for anyone else looking for the answer to this question.

Att fuze-wm6.5 driving me nuts

I have n unsuccessfully tried 4 times to put on various betas of wm 6.5 on my fuze but each time i end up having to go back to the one i had previously. can anyone please point me to the latest and stable 6.5 ?? Thanx to all.
duuuuudddeee!!!!
ummm...and what makes you think that this is the correct forum section for posting about the fuze? see the top-most bar on this page...see the place on the top-left where it says "xda-developers > Kaiser > Kaiser general"?
use that same bar to navigate to the "ROM Development Section" of the relevant forum section for the fuze (also known as the "Raphael")!

Are you really trying to put a Kaiser rom on your Fuze ? After you brick your Fuze, can I have it. ?
We should just take it from him, endangering a piece of good tech..
Someone call the Gadget police.
Sometimes i wonder if the average smartphone is smarter than the average smartphone user?
Dibs on your brick
I have the Energy Rom 3.0 and I must say I have only found 1 bug (the contacts display on the dialer screws up when u scroll. Bust that is THE rom to flash if you want stability, speed and reliability. I really dont have anyother to recommend, Ive never had the need to replace my rom. I hope this helps. and...if your looking a Rom for the kaiser and accidentally called it fuze..man im having trouble finding a good rom for the kaiser with 6.5 myself, They told me that PDA Corner Ultimate-X2.V10 was a good one. So there you go.
Deleted... wrong post.
All is Forgiven
