I learned from mUn solution that the Tab Setting is actually Hard Coded in the pluin. The plugin itself is design for 5 tab only. By Altering the string you can alter what tab is enabled or disabled. The order of the Tab can also be altered the same way. But, I dont think HOW to do it is for general audience though. Too technical to explain.

Sorry to bear the not so good news but after looking at the 6tab solutions I conclude that it is not properly done. That is why for those of you that insall the 6tab from mUn or from me, you will notice that in HKLM there is a key named "5" being created. That is because mUn force the "6-tab string" into the original "5-tab string" it disturb other resource that point to the correct registry. I will see if I can correct this.

The two most annoying issues "Wild switching to vibrate" and "Notifications Queue" wil auomatically gone if you diable the profiler tab. If you still want the profiler tab for manual switching then you have to "denying" the plugin from creating the notification queue all together and "denying" the profiler to switch to vibrate all together. Thus auto profile cannot be used. Again I am not going to get into tecnical thing on how to do it. Ofcourse the right way to do it is to make it properly work in auto and maunal. Who is going to try this?

Based on your calender entries, when you have an appointment, the phone should automatically change to vibrate mode instead of ringing.

So the so called fixed 6 tab version from schen did not fix issues :confused:

Are the issues fixed with so called fixed 5 tab version with profiles tab disabled ?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Scann69:
Hey jfran, thanx for the program. I'm only at 50% in getting what i want. I don't seem to be able to get the right softkey for "Programs" like the one you click on Start -> Programs.

I did some trying using Resco Explorer and creating shortcuts but that did not work. Any other way for me to set the right soft key to "Programs". Using SPB Shell it's called "SPB Menu".
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] schen:
The notifications issue already been fixed. Probably you should mention specifically WHICH version you are installing that gave you the notifications queue problem? There is version from mUn and mine.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] schen:
They are talking about the 6tab version by mUn I think. My 6 tab version dont create any queue at all.

Believe me the 5tab without the profile tab is the best. The profiler tab is simply not finished yet. This plugin is at a very alpha stage I think.

I manage to enable Tab setting through registry. The fuction is build in there but disable by default. With this you can select whateve tab you want to us and altering the order of the tab. Interested? Dont worry it will not break your Hermes!

Some of the HTC Home plugins go to the \htchome directory while others go to \Windows. I know someone who wants to make an OEM out of this. Is there a registry setting that tells the plugin what directory the files are in or is it hard coded? If its a registry entry, what is the key(s) I should be looking for.

EDIT: NM...I figured it out. The htchome.dll has been hard coded (hex edited) to point to \HTCHome rather than \Windows.

I noticed that there are icons that is unused with the home plugin, in.ex the HH_LAUNCHER_44x44_browser.png

When I choose internet explorer as a shortcut in the launcher, it displays only the ie default one

why cant it show the one that comes with the home plugin? There are several other icons too that I would like to use instead of the windows default ones, is there a way I can do this?

I tried to alter the paths for icons in registry, but that was unsucsessfull, atleast the way I tried :(

6-tab

Great job guys! Thanks for making this available.

After having tried both chen's 5- and 6-tab plugin, find the 6-tab has less resource drain on my 8525.

I discovered the biggest resource drain is WMP - horribly so. Defaulted the player to HTC Aud Mgr allowing me to run multiple apps without ridiculous slowdowns.

I just wish I could remove the black separator bar under the plugin. I know it's been discussed on other threads but don't recall which one(s).
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] RoachForLife:
Not to get off topic but how do you go about changing the color of the today plugin as you did? Also I read on here that theres a good audio player called coreplayer I think it was called. Wondering if its much less of a toll on resources...?

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] dkaye:
I didn't make any color changes. If I'm not mistaken, I believe the plugin is a transparency overlay (strength about 50% or so??), which enhances the background image you use.

Re: Coreplayer - I use it to watch DVD converted video - but find it is still a large resource drain - almost, *almost* as much as WMP. [edit: not so, it's moderate in comparison]

Using the same snapshot above and running no other programs other than the plugin, with a starting baseline program memory of 20.28MB, here's the usage:

WMP: drastically drops to 6.46MB - that's almost 14MB!

Coreplayer: 14.35MB - ~6MB

HTC Audio Mgr: 16.41MB - ~4MB

I don't know about this notification error but my phone keeps defaulting to VIBRATE for some reason.

I tried multiple versions of the HTC home plug and it still changes to vibrate at some random time.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] schen:
Those of you that still experience random switching to vibrate after installing my version, you will have to do complete uninstall of the plugin including removing the "Notfications Queue" that might be left after uninstalling previous version of the plugin.

All previous version from JUVS(original version), Freelance2k7, and nUm(initial 6tab) create a bunch of notifications queue(one user here even reported 340 duplicates queue after several days of use without realizing it).

Notifications queue is not something you can SEE when your device is used normally. You will have to use some of the system tools(SKTools and Memmaid or possibly other tools) to check for the queue and tell you whether there is any queue created by this plugin. Do a complete cleanup. I posted somewhere in this thread earlier how to indentified notifications queue that this plugin created. Those eventhough are not duplicates have to be clean up also. The tweak I did was just denying the profile tab from creating new notifications but it still check for notifications possibly left out from previous install and switch to vibrate accordingly. Worse it wont delete the outdated queue. So if you already have the queue build up manual removal is MANDATORY. I personally do a hard reset and install everything from fresh when realizing my queue got messed up and installing into windows also screw my windows directory when opened with file explorer. This is what we got as a beta tester for HTC.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] schen:
Here you go. This is to be use with my last CAB with Tabsetting with all resources placed in Windows. You will have to Edit HKLM/SOFTWARE/MICROSOFT/TODAY/ITEMS and change the path of HTCHome.dll to point to \windows too.

Please comeback and tell me it worked or not.

For others, if you are not integrating this apps in your ROM, you dont need this file.
