Hi from Oz...

Hi Guys, greetings from Oz downunder...:)

First I'd like to say a big THANK-YOU to Cookie and team for producing such a fantastic program for Windows Mobile. I wish I had the smartz to be able to help more.

I have been following this thread since the beginning.

I'd like to say what is working for me here in Australia on our main network (Telstra). My phone is a HTC HD2 which is a great mobile phone. I am running Dutty's Family ROM version 5 (Thanks Dutty) with the new 2.15.50.14 radio which is a great combination here.

I am running Cookies Home Tab vesion 2 beta and Cookies Home Tab Editor vesion 2 and Michas cab fix (thanks Micha). I have had no freezes or problems with this setup and the phone has been running now for 10 days plus... without a reset.

I have a wide screen wallpaper and have 5 pages set with 2 levels. Pages and levels are listed below:

Page 1, Level 0 is the weather toggle switch only.

Page 1, Level 1 is the weather widget set to graphics only.

Page 2, Level 0 is clear, (nothing set or added yet).

Page 2, Level 1 is the calender widget.

Page 3, Level 0 is 8 freelinks to programs, (task manager, file explorer, com manager, camera, traffic monitor, search phone, calculator, notes.)

Page 3, Level 1 (Default page) is the Clock widget set to compact, Notifcation widget, and a freelink for Contacts.

Page 4, Level 0 are 3 more freelinks to programs, (albums, reset, flashlight)

Page 4, Level 1 is the messaging widget with a freelink to HTC messaging under the widget.

Page 5, Level 0 are 7 more feelinks, these being 3 toggle switches (data, push mail, wifi), 3 state indicators (battery life, free ram, memory load) and a freelink to Cleanram program.

Page 5, Level 1 is the email widget with a freelink to the email program underneath.

Levels are set to circle thru, I do not use quicklinks (Hidden), preferring the free links.

As stated I have no freeze problems or any other problems with Cookies's software and I have not had to reset Sense or the phone for 10 days plus. All programs and services are working as they should, including internet and gmail. (Other programs installed are GPRS Traffic Monitor, Cleanram, Dialup Enabler / Disabler, BsB Tweaks 1.6 and AMeBa.

I've noticed that not many have stated their phone configurations, so I hope this helps in some way. I'm a noob at this so if I'm wasting your time I am sorry, but at least you guys have 1 configuration that does work.

Thank-you for all your time and effort that you guys are putting in to this very worthwhile project. I am surprised that Microsoft have not offered you guys a job, (Or HTC for that matter).

Keep up the great work.

Cheers from Oz.

Kossi.

Hey guys,

I accidentally went into CHT editor and selected restore defaults.

Now my main home page is stuffed and the icons at the bottom are now different (it looks like the original htc touch pro icons).

How do I go around getting the old menu back?

Thanks in advance.

Considering my undiagnosed attention deficit disorder, I think I've been pretty patient so far!

But that's it, can't take it any more; I am coming by to help you with whatever rl-work you do so that you can use your time on something a bit more constructive, like finishing CHT :)

Reporting issues on my device

Hello folks...

I would like to make a report about couple problems that I have. Since I started to use v2.0 b, I'm having problem. Old versions were OK to me.

1 - When I answer incoming calls, Sometimes directly opening the hands free mod. People saying that my voice is coming from deep and they are hearing too much echo, background sound, etc.

At this moment, No possible to control Volume up and down (also after call).

The only way to solve this issue soft reset. However, after 3-4 incoming calls, happens again.

2 - Sense is freezing; (Not All The Time)

when I make sliding between levels and pages,

when I try to edit levels.

let's say generally during regular use of levels and pages.

3 - After install v2.0b, device is getting slower everyday on sense. Turbo 3D installed and tried every mod for sense. But no any solution...

4 - Opening device is taking too much time (x2 than usual) after enters pin code. (Sense is starting screen)

Uninstall v2.0b and Install v1.8.5 again. Everything went normal...

Info

OS : 5.2.21869

Manila : 2.5.19211619.0

ROM : Stock WWE 1.66.468.1

Radio : 2.07.51.22_2

If you haven't made a backup of your CHT 2.0 settings with the export function in CHT Editor you have to set up your old menu manually.

Therefore i export my settings from time to time to avoid such problems
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Zelaxion:
Hi Santod,

I've used your No Clock Background cab-file and it works like a charm, but I notice a change in cht too.

I've got the sms widget enabled, and if I press on the button for the menu, that background is also gone. Do you know something for this?

Thanks in advance.

As for the rest CHT2.0 Beta works very well in my opinion, so I don't have a real rush with the Final, it will come when it's the time.

Greets,

Zelaxion

this mod works great on my tilt2. i dont know how you did it cookie but but phone is faster with this mod. the only thing is the retract slider doesnt work nor lock screen on my sense 2.52013 device.great work :).

Bug found

Hey,

I really like your plugin! But there is one problem. I disabled your softkeys, and when I open my e-mail in the default Manila mail-tab, and go back to the home screen, the slider is gone! :o Please fix :)

I'm currently using the 2.0 public beta, with HVGA port. (A port which I really appreciate!)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Adow:
Little bug

Hallo Co0kie, I have found a small bug.

The new function CHT.Appointments.DoNotRepeatMultiday is not working fully correctly.

For example:

1. when I add new appointment from 11.11. 17:33 until 12.11. 12:00, everything shows OK - only one row

2. but when I add new "full day" appointment from 11.11. until 12.11., there are two rows - each for every day...

I have of course applied this setting:

"CHT.Appointments.DoNotRepeatMultiday"=dword:00000001
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Random667:
When i click on the clock or the weather widget nothing happens. :mad:

They work fine before i import my registry settings with XDA_UC.

Where in the registry are the on click actions stored? :confused:
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] BHS Interceptor:
Thank you for all your feedback ;-) I wish everybody with BUG or aparent Bugs would post a similar complete report on their settings and/or installed apps. and custos... Thanks again for taking your time and reporting ;):D

So has been CoOkie and the whole Team, trying to reproduce each and every single one of the program bugs or "user mistakes" - and far too many times having to use the "cristall ball" to guess what kind of device, settings, paralel running apps, custos, or simply "usage errors" were made, when that bug (or suposed bug) appeared, so considering this and also a few things more, like i.e. you and others would like this bugs to be taken care of, I don´t think it would be asking toooo much, for just a little more patience, and most of all, consideration for those working on this great app. So that instead of having to spend over an hour (of their precious spare time and good will) reading and answering posts not related to improve the app, or solve any bugs, or help any other users (maybe less experienced) with minor or major issues...., they could actually as you write (despite your non diagnosed attention deficit disorder - which by the way, for people who actually have it diagnosed is not funny at all), and forgive me for quoting you again "can use your time on something a bit more constructive, like finishing CHT"

Oh, it´s just my 2 cents ;)

Hi, I can´t confirm nor reproduce the errors you´ve encountered. Could you please give us some more details about customizations or tweaks applied, and of course, your CHT settings/set up? Thank you :)

Sorry, but without info about Device, ROM, customizations, etc..., not much anybody can do... :o
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] _Madmatt:
Found another bug... Music player isn't working on mine device. If I hit the play, next, previous or pause button, nothing happens. If I go to the "Music" tab in Sense and hit play, it works. Then, when I have some music playing, I go back to CHT. Then CHT has updated itself, and shows the title and progress of the song, and play is changed to pause. But when I hit a button, nothing again...

I'm using HTC HD Mini, with a custom ROM based on HTC's 1.36.404.1 (NLD). I'm also using the HVGA port (ofcourse!).
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] santod040:
Hi, sorry for your issue.

Last I knew, there was still an issue with the retractable slider on the HVGA port.

Do you have this enabled in the Editor?

If so, try disabling it and see if your slider returns.

As for your latest post regarding the CHT music player.

Did you try removing the widget and re adding it again?

Also have you updated your music library with Windows Media Player since your latest rom flash or hard reset?

I find doing this helps.

Also, if you haven't already, you may also want to mention these briefly in the HVGA Port thread as well, so that Tumys has this for his notes,

as well as then others can either help you with this if they have found solutions for a similar issue on the same device.

Not saying we won't try and help here as well. We certainly will. :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] santod040:
CHT add-on Widget or the default clock and weather of HTC Sense?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] _Madmatt:
Thanks! Disabling the CHT slider worked for me, but it's a poor solution. I hope it'll be fixed in the final release :)

For the music, none of your solutions provided above helped... :( I hope this will be fixed too! My music is located on the storage card, could that be the problem?

PS: Maybe you can add a weather widget in the future? Then you CHT will replace HTC Sense completely :D
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] santod040:
Ok, well I wasn't referring to the CHT softkeys.

I was asking you to disable the retractable slider, if it was active.

Which it obviously isn't, as you now have a slider on home screen.

But whatever works for now, right?

As for the music on the SD card, most people have it this way.

That should not be an issue, unless you may have the files many directories deep, or have some corrupted files on there.

Most often, a reformat of the SD card helps with these issues tremendously.

If you do that though, you would want to back up everything important first, to a PC or something.

Also sometimes this can happen if some of the music files have DRM(Digital Rights Management) licenses for the tracks.

If the DRM files get corrupted, the music will not play.

I have had it happen in the widget and the tab player.

Oh, and check the first page for the CHT Weather Widget Add-on.;)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] pgdrz4:
also

oh one more thing. Phone freezes when i add weather wighet.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] BHS Interceptor:
Hi, anything else installed? Only freezes when adding widget - can you ad it or not? If widget not added, device OK? Phone as in actual device, or phone as in phone mode? Where did you try to ad the widget, and which one?....... Sorry, but had to ask ;-)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Random667:
CHT add-on Widget.

I reset CHT defaults, and went through the settings and put everything back the way i had it, this fixed the problem.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] JesusFreak316:
Good to hear, and perfect timing as I just got my HD2. There shouldn't be any issues upgrading to final from beta via cab, right?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] _Madmatt:
Indeed, now it works, but thanks for answering anyway :)

The files ain't corrupt, as they will play in WMP or the default Manilla Music Player. Is a path like this deep? I don't thik so: Storage Card\Music\Ice Cube\I Am The West\All Day Every Day.mp3

No DRM protection.

Thanks :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mrpierrec:
Hi Co0kie and dvlpt team,

Don't worry for any "delay" for the final release. The beta is stable and working fine. In any cases, delay is not a problem for such a wonderfull application as CHT.

Who can expect something grand for final release as CHT 2.0 is already something grand ?

Many Many thanks for the great job in developping CHT 2.0 :):):)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] lude219:
Good to hear from CookieMonster, I guess i'll wait for CHT2.5 for the 3G toggle to be implimented then :(
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] stefanjadex:
Looking forward

Good news!

I guess we are all looking forward for the new CHT 2.0.0.

I'm using 1.8.5 and I can only say: this is piece of software rocks!

Stefan
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Co0kieMonster:
Upgrading from the 2.0 beta to 2.0 final will be the same process as always:

1) Save your old settings with CHTEditor.

2) Uninstall the old CHT and CHTEditor. Soft reset.

3) Install new CHT and CHTE.

4) Restore settings with CHTE.

But, as before: no upgrading from 1.8.5 to 2.0.0.

Why v2.5? What happened to 2.1, 2.2, 2.3 and 2.4? :D
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] hidden_dragon:
Cookie, we are all very anxious for the final 2.0 version. However, I have had problems with Exporting settings...in that, when I enabled 5 x 5 shortcuts, the 3rd page of shortcuts do not save. Otherwise, the improvements on v2.0 are phenomenal!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Zelaxion:
Cookie,

great hearing from you. i didn't saw it on the list of fixes/updates, but the sms/mail tab being in english, are you going to change that too or are there people which can translate this?

i'm a happy user of the beta, works perfectly, on a few minor bugs that are being fixed in the final as I saw in the list :). great job you are doing guys.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] BHS Interceptor:
Hi, you could also give

CHTS

a try - with CHTS you can save the complete CHT / Sense Layout (items, quicklinks, freelinks, widgets....) and then apply this Layout again when installing CHT new ;)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] hidden_dragon:
Thank you...I'll give that a shot!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] BHS Interceptor:
You´re welcome ;) Any feedback, welcome - here or there :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bl4ck0p5:
Hi everyone! CHT really rocks! Great job there m8!

Thoug, I was wondering if it's possible to disable/remove certain tabs from CHT, such as "Stocks" or "Call History", or whichever tabs I want. I have no use for them, so I'd like to remove them if possible.

Thanks!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] santod040:
Those tabs are part of HTC Sense.

You can disable the ones you don't want.

Simply drag the tab slider to:

Settings Tab > Personalize > Home Screen Tabs

Unselect the ones you don't want and move them around in the order you want as well. ;)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bl4ck0p5:
Sweet, thank you so much! o/
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Co0kieMonster:
Actually it was an import bug, not export. It will be fine when you import everything into CHT 2.0.0 final using CHTE 2.0.0.0 final.

That's related to the language pack. Not all languages have been translated yet and the email tab text get overwritten because the home tab has the email widget now (they have the same language file entries). But it should be OK once your language gets translated.

I have received the following language translations since the last language pack release - these will be uploaded with the final:

Arabic, Hungarian, Dutch, Chinese (Traditional), Hebrew

Along with the ones already available:

Czech, Danish, Greek, Spanish, French, Italian, Polish, Chinese (Simplified)

There are still a few languages not translated. If anyone is interested let me know.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] avenger666:
i cant wait for final ;D
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Sanojek:
Neither do I... Cmon man, give us hope! Give us release date!.... release month at least :D
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] sirkilo:
Thanks Cookie. TP2
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] santod040:
You must not have read back 2 pages before posting.

Please look HERE and READ. Thanks.

Especially the last two sentences. :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Zelaxion:
Thanks, that's good info, then i'll wait for the new language pack being uploaded with the final :). Great work.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] puntc:
how to add a picture

Dear Co0kieMonster,

Thank you very much. Just two questions.

1. How can I add a picture to the screens on the right and left of the main home view at level 1? They are just too plain.

2. What is the meaning of 'ids'? Just out of curiosity.

TC Pun
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Zelaxion:
for point 2:

IDS means that you haven't installed the language pack. I assume that you see this in the CHT menu?

Or do you mean what the abbreviation means? Then I don't really know :).
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] santu001:
Hi all,

After updating to artemis 42.0 and importing cht 2.0 setting back.

I now experience being stuck on the homescreen.

The homescreen works fine, it's just that i can't sideswipe anymore, unless i restart sense or reboot.

I know this is beta, it's more out off curiosity.

Is this my unique problem or well known.

Finding it hard to decide which threat this should go, editor or hometab. Sorry if i did wrong. :D
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] MalekoUK:
I be one of them! I did give the beta a go and what I saw I loved, glitchy and buggy yes, but hey, it's a beta. So having that fix list is really something!

CHT really does bring the best out of Sense.

Cannot wait for the final!

Keep up the grand work!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] kurt-willems:
This was a well know issue; but Cookie have done lot of improvements.

But let say that the problems you mention in combination with Artemis ROM (Custom ROM based on latest 3.14 stock ROM) aren't present in latest test's!

Just a little patience and you're problem will be solved.:cool:
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] at004:
I can't launch the sense of my hd2 anymore,even after restarting the device so many times,and it always show me the screen as below.SO PLZ how can i regain back the sense to work normal as before...[Iam using the CHT2.0 BETA & CHTE 2.0 BETA].....THX.

Don't tell me i should do a hard reset,and reinstall the whole thing once again..cause i disabled sense and enabled it so many times and nothing changed.:confused:

CHT Final

Hi Cookie,

I'm a proud user CHT v1.8.5,

I just wanted you to know that this is the best ever created interface on HTC Sense.

Can't wait for the new CHT 2.0.0. Final!

Thanks for the great work. Keep it up.

CHT or CHTE,because i did reinstall CHTE and nothing changed..?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] evolutionqy7:
did you install any cabs before? if so you should uninstall the last installed one. Certain apps like replacing start menu mess up Sense.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] at004:
I did uninstall the last one but also the same result.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] MichelDiamond:
sorry mate - I promised to say it to the next "my-sense-is-messed-up-issue" :

why haven't you saved your Baseline and your Layout with CHTS? Co0kie and me made this integrated fallback as "lifesaver" - so: you had your chance.

(original Sense has its bugs, which can't be all counteracted by CHT, also not by final!)

For @All 2 important hints for soon uploaded CHT 2 final - please remember each user for that:

1. save your Baseline for Cht v2 public beta with CHTS, but only apply it, if something with your installation went wrong. renew your saved Layouts at best after successful installation of CHT 2 final.

2. Don't apply chtstate108f to CHT final anymore. there it is like usually already integrated. and the version is there 108g - so you would overwrite the new version. chtstate108g has much more improvements for performance and battery then.

Regards

Micha
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] :
I do not believe that it is a CHT problem. I had it several times with Topaz (HTC Pure) with CHT 1.85 and 2. Different Rom builds.

It has something to to with the MicroSD card. I found that myself after removing the card during a bootup and then read the same day that a bad card or card with file system errors would cause the same problem. I ran from a command prompt and card in a reader, Chkdsk x: /f where x:=drive letter and no to fix bad files. I think it might be in Cookie HD2 Rom FAQ.

Restore of a SPB backup of 'broken' phone to an identical phone yielded same error so somehow the software gets broken.

Only solution I could find was total reset.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] at004:
I uninstalled CHT,CHTE & CHTSTATE108F,and gained back the sense..and Iam going to reinstall all and save my Baseline as you've said...THX A LOT TO ALL OF YOU..:):)

Few remarks on (maybe known?) bugs

Hi Cookie Monster!

First of all, let me congratulate you with this GREAAAT application.

It is really really really good and I love it.

I have few remarks on some minor bugs.

Maybe you could correct that for the final 2.0 release?

I have an HD2 with official ROM 1.66.406.1 (76641) FRE and manila 2.5.192.11619.0.

I noted the following:

1. When you insert the e-mail widget, after soft-reset, when you are on the home page, the phone button is not working. It should open the phone dialer, but nothing. Now if you go in any other application, the button will work. Then when you go back on the home screen, the button is now working. But after another soft reset, same story.

2. When you have the e-mail widget on, with automatic "mark read" feature, as soon as you receive a new e-mail, the notification is automatically removed, the e-mail is automatically read without any action from the user. This results in missed e-mails: when you receive an e-mail while suspended, all of these are going in the background and unless you watch your phone permanently, you don't noticed that your received-read an email... This has been observed even if the widget is not on the screen or on the default page or level: same behavior when the widget is activated somewhere in CHT.

3. When you transfert an e-mail with the e-mail widget, the original message does not follow, so you don't transfert anything...

4. Same issue than point 3 above when you answer to an e-mail: the original message is not quoted...

5. Still with the e-mail widget, but also the messages widget: it would be nice that when you click on the notification icons, it brings you not into the corresponding manila tab, but onto the corresponding widget if it is activated... that would be very very great!

There are other minor bugs, but that I can live with. those 5 above are those that I would like to increase the user experience.

Among the "minor bugs":

6. text on links does not appear while the option is selected

7. when you do not activate scrolling in calendar widget and you swipe over it to change level, the appointment line remains highlighted

8. sometimes the flip clock king of freeze when flipping hours and minutes. I finally shows the correct time, but flipping is not there anymore

Functions requests:

9. would be nice that CHT lockscreen could show the next appointment ignoring any "all day" appointments - same function that the default WM6.5 lockscreen.

10. would be great if the weather stand-alone widget had an additional setting which would be same than "original": with indication of city, temperatures, but without the black background.

Thanks very much for you so big and so great work!

Cheers!
