Disable it (change from 1 to 0) and you will have the start menu back. I use it myself.

Yes, it is working now. Thanks for that.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] nlel:
I bought my Tytn II in Sept 2007, but on December 31st 2008 I was off my head an chucked it down the toilet, it was in the toilet for at least 30 minutes.

3 months later I tried powering it on but got nothing, so I left it aside for another 2 months and bought an MWG Zinc II to replace it, then one day I tried to turn it on again and surprisingly it did power on (on mains only) it was acting a bit wierd with regard to the power light it was kinda flickering then after about a minute the phone would switch off making a little dink sound as it did so. It wasn't charging the battery at all (which was flat before it went into the toilet).

I tried to put a sim card in but it wouldn't find a network, so as it didn't work on battery at all I decided to get a new one off eBay as they were only £ 3. I didn't expect it to work properly but for £ 3 it was worth seeing what would happen.

Today I got the new battery and when I first put it in the power light was flickering again, it powered on and battery had 36% charge, it wasn't charging the battery but it would power on from the battery only, and the battery didn't go down while on mains.

For the heck of it I thought I'd stick a sim in to see if I'd get a network and sure enough I did and made a phone call on it, this was new to me as on the old battery it couldn't get a network even. I played about with it some more and eventually it started charging the battery.

It now appears to be working fine this is amazing!

EDIT:

I've been using the phone over the last few days and I have noticed what I would describe as a minor fault with the phone, if you set the back light to maximum the screen flickers wildly, as you lower the brightness the flickering lessens until it stops completely at the lowest three settings.

This is not really a problem to me as I have always used it on the second brightness notch and here its fine and plenty bright, the only time you ever see a problem then is when you soft reset it because the HTC logo screen is at maximum brightness, the flickering soon disappears as the user setting takes over, and also when you start the camera to take video the screen is automatically set to max brightness so the screen flickers while taking video, it takes photos just fine.

In all other respects the phone works perfectly I even put the old battery in and now thats charging, it seemed all it needed was a new battery to get it charging again as before it refused to charge the battery.

I will be keeping the phone as I sold my MWG Zinc II the other day so need it for the time being, I will probably replace it in a couple of years.

Here is my rendition of the titanium sliding home screen.

I have included a cab file to install. After install, reboot, and then go to settings-->home screen-->and on the Layout, pick Titanium Media Topbar.

This was installed on NRG's 6.5 energy ROM so i don't have any testing on whether or not this works properly on ookbas 3Volution ROM. It also is intended with the topbar in mind. I'm not sure what it will not look like if you dont have the topbar already installed. Please use at your own risk. It should uninstall cleanly for anyone wanting to remove it, however if you have installed rickwyatts version it may leave behind some reminants, so you may want to try and uninstall his first before installing mine.

Thanks go out to NRGZ28, rickwyatt and frauhottelmann with their assistance in getting this layout to this point.

There is a settings panel right now, but it doesnt display any images. If anyone wants to talke this, let me know what a fix would be and i will include it in the .cab.

edit: I've included reflective gmail and yahoo mail icons as well for the mail panel

Here are some screenshots. :

[HTC Excalibur] orb3000:
Thanks a lot

It looks great!

Hope it works with my ROM
[HTC Excalibur] KROMO50:
why is the right soft key set time and not contacts
[HTC Excalibur] pudgedaddy:
A:) Because its the titanium panel layout

B:) Because you are on the time panel, not on a contacts panel.

its quite an easy change if you're familiar with editing the registry. go to HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Chome\CClock then edit the two values SK2TEXT and SK2URL..... change the SK2TEXT to read Contacts and the SK2URL to read :MSCONTACTS then exit your registry and if you have chome refresh use that. otherwise reboot your phone.
[HTC Excalibur] KROMO50:
before it was inbox but installed the new layout it change to set time

I hate to repost things but it seams the large font guy stole all the attention...

So if you please, i would be very grateful is someone could answer this for me.

Thanx
[HTC Excalibur] pudgedaddy:
so you want to show which panel is first and so on right? its in the .xml fil on your application data/home and i believe the file name it titanium_media_topbar.home.xml or close to it. anyway you can edit the file in notepad or word pad on your pc and at the bottom there is text referring to the plugins separated with a comma, just re-arrange the plugins and then copy over the home.xml file back into the original location and reboot your phone.
[HTC Excalibur] awilaman:
Alternatively, simply use CHome Configurator (CHome Config in the start menu) to modify the order of the panels or plugins).

Start->CHome Config->Menu->[Move Up/Move Down] as necessary.

It works well on my phone.

On my phone, I had to modify the registry to change the color of the "soft keys bar" to a flat black color. I have attached a *.reg file to help with that (disclaimer: modify the registry on your phone at your own risk).

copy the *.reg file to /My Documents/ folder on your phone

Start->Tweaks->Registry Editor->Menu->Import->[select *.reg file]

Thanks a lot to pudgedaddy, frauhottelmann and all others for the nice titanium panel (wm6.5 might be new on the inside, but this panel definitely makes it "look & feel" new).

A couple of things to consider making the wm6.5 more than just skin deep or at least finishing off the look might be:

(1) making the "soft keys bar" transparent or at least pseudo transparent like the iconbar (using the appropriate pixels of the wallpaper)

(2) using a transparent version of the home screen wallpaper as a background for the "start menu", "recent programs". And maybe other screens as well contacts, dialer, call history, settings e.t.c (though I would imagine that might increase latency in loading those screens, but a wish list nonetheless)
[HTC Excalibur] istosevski:
thanx pudgedaddy, I'll try that...

btw is it possible to set the time panel as default panel,

so when I press end or home button I go to the time panel and not to the first panel in the list.

Thanx
[HTC Excalibur] awilaman:
Sorry... this is not pudgedaddy, but I can answer based on my own experience (gained over the past week with tweaking the homescreen).

My recommendation would be that you try things out you may be surprised by what you will find.

To answer your question, though, the default behavior is that whenever you press the home button it will take you to the clock panel regardless of the ordering of the panels.
[HTC Excalibur] istosevski:
Thanx man... Appreciate that.

Also, the joke (about trying things) is on me! Cool.:)

But I had to ask before experimenting anyway, cause I own SE P1i (a zombie phone) and my GF owns the MDA Mail aka Excaliba (witch is amazingly still alive and kicking) and goes with couple of strict rules, with one of them being: Don't mess my period calendar! Or else...!

So now you understand the true nature of my problem, you know why i had to ask.

Anyway great help from you guys... I appreciate. 10Q
[HTC Excalibur] jeonatl3:
This is working great on my Excalibur with NRG's 6.5, I don't have the Topbar running because I absolutely hate the icons (especially the battery one!) but can report it seems fine with the standard Windows Mobile icons.

Now off to tweak and customise it :-) thanks for a great release...
[HTC Excalibur] jeonatl3:
I was wondering if you can explain this in a little bit more detail to me?

I have done some messing around with Titanium_320x240 in the /Windows folder and have managed to get some fonts and what not changed, but I'm curious about some of the references I've found in the file.

Take the "text" panel for instance, I can see there are different layers for "TextExpanded" and "TextCondensed" which presumably refer to the state of the panel, whether it is highlighted and thus expanded or condensed.

Then inside there are the individual references to positioning of pictures, text and what not.

But take for instance:

<!-- Line 2 -->

<Text ID="Text 2">

...

</Text>

I'm assuming this is a reference to something, asking the OS for the current state of the text messages and somewhere there are some pre-defined messages that, depending on the current state either report back say "No new messages" or something else, depending on the current state. These sort of references appear everywhere in the XML file.

But where do these references originate? Where stores the different states and how can one go about modifying the text associated with them? So, for instance, to use the above example - suppose I wanted to change "No new messages" to "No new text messages" - how would I go about doing that?

Changing colors, fonts and what not is easy - because these are directly defined in the XML and easily changeable, but these references are confusing and I want to modify them!

Finally - pictures. To take text messaging again

<Image ID="Image 1">...

to where is "Image 1" refering to?

Please can someone help! I want to learn more! :)

Titanium Background Image ?

I love the Titanium Panels home screen. Great job. I was wondering if anyone knows where to find a Titanium (dark black) background image. I like to use white-on-black for my homescreen for readability outdoors. I have tried searching the forum but turned up nothing. Thanks.
[HTC Excalibur] pudgedaddy:
go to the icon & wallpapers thread. there is a nice dark carbon image that would suit you well.

i dont think chome congih works on 6.5 as it is a different type of panel. additional chome config doesnt come with the 3vo
[HTC Excalibur] awilaman:
Ahhh... I see, you are using the 3vo ROM.

Well, my thoughts are that they are different types of panels in that they use different components or plugins (bronze, iconbar & e.t.c).

However, they use the same mechanisms to work (registry, *.cpr, *.home.xml), so the CHome Configurator should work since it only modifies the registry entries defining the plugins list and order. Find it on this forum, install it and it should work.

I have been rocking the WM 6.5 EnergyROM by NRGZ28 and the CHome Configurator works just fine.

I have used both ROMS before, but I favor the EnergyROM because, in my opinion, it is cleaner and defers customization to the user which makes it more "customizable".

I think the 3vo ROM is excellent, but contains too much "look & feel" customization that makes it difficult to suit everybody's preference. I prefer the minimalistic look.

I think the perfect ROM is the one that contains a set of non-redundant apps and no customizations.
[HTC Excalibur] skyline247:
Thanx Pudgedaddy. This works really well, and I only have a very few questions/quirks. I had to get used to the top panel being approximately half way in the screen. Is it supposed to be that way, or am I missing something. Secondly, is there a way to make the panels more transparent/less dark? I would like to be able to "see through" them to show the full background.

Other than that this is great work. Rockin' your panels, and awilaman's weather, my phone is very eye pleasing to me. Thanx again. Keep up the great work.
[HTC Excalibur] fliparsenal:
actually the titanium look gives it a "cleaner feel"

as for why chome config works on the energy 6.5..its because it still uses the glasspanels from 6.1. and the 3vo rom uses titaniums. however theres is a way to switch b.w. the glass panel and titanium in the 3vo. takes about 30 seconds.
[HTC Excalibur] istosevski:
Yes it woul be great if we could get the titanium panel tilted up...

(Say, Only one text above the panel and three above chould do it)

And i really need option to get this on Sliding Panels without Energy Top Bar

(actually this cab works too but i had some stability issues)
[HTC Excalibur] dermann:
CHome Config

hey everyone i added this string in with the Titanium_320x240.cpr and now i can edit the home screen. with chome config, with no problems.

is there anyway of changing the font color from white to black, or any other color?

also is there anyway of changing the names of the panels?

hey istosevski, if you go into setting homescreen, change it to titanium media topbar, that will fix it.

Wallpaper Problem?

I installed this on my Jack and it's doing a strange thing with the wallpaper that the AT&T Sliding Panel home does on WM6.5 - it chops it up and doesn't display the whole image. Does anybody know why this happens or how to fix it? Example:
[HTC Excalibur] CoderHead:
I just tried going into the Titanium Media_topbar.home.xml and editing it to figure out what it's doing. After editing, my icon bar has completely disappeared. Anybody know what's going on with this thing?
[HTC Excalibur] wagonis:
I have a quick question, will this only work with the excalibur? I know this is not an actual ROM which is why I ask. I have a Samsung Code and am looking for a better home screen interface and wanted to see what I can find here.
[HTC Excalibur] dermann:
ok, it's not the .xml. it's in the .cpr. particularly this string.

<Image ID="Background" Opacity="1.0" [color=red]Top="-54"[/color] Width="320" Height="240" Source="ConfettiPlus::WallpaperBitmap"/>

you want to change the part that's in the red. change it to the same as your other .cpr's.
[HTC Excalibur] dermann:
if your phone is running a 6.5 rom, then it should work. however i can't confirm that. if your feeling adventurous you can try.
[HTC Excalibur] CoderHead:
Awesome!! The image displays perfectly now. Thanks for your help.
[HTC Excalibur] angus1357:
The wallpaper is displayed correctly, but is there anyway to use the default topbar images as opposed to the "3D" ones (especially since the battery doesnt work)?
[HTC Excalibur] HTC-OH_SNAP:
Ok... here's my deal -

I have an HTC Ozone with the official "leaked" 6.5 rom on it.

I want to run PD's titanium panels on it because I do think they give it a much cleaner and more crisp user look. However when I install the panels and then go to Settings>Home Screen>Titanium Media Topbar I instantly lose my top bar. I've tried looking through the .cpr file to see whats going on as well as the .xml and have run into a wall.

If I install NRG's Top Bar Cab it will install the "3d" colored icons and those will show up. However, I prefer the traditional b&w ones.

How can I get the old icons to show up?

Any help as far as where to look would be great!!!!
[HTC Excalibur] Cyclonezephyrxz7:
Please go to SETTINGS>HOME SCREEN and select one that says 'TOPBAR' ... that will give you the topbar in the theme....if there aren't any (or the ones that have it are not what you want), post back and I will help further :)
[HTC Excalibur] HTC-OH_SNAP:
When I select the one that says topbar I get no icons.

If I first install the NRG Tool Bar then I get the colored "3d" Top Bar.

What I'm trying to do is use this Titanium Panel and retain the stock top bar.

I tried the rickywatt panel layout and it didnt display properly... the panels were on top of each other.
