I wanted to install HTC Home Customizer but after installing this it says I should install HTC Home plugin. When I download this I get an error stating the plugin isn't available/suitable for my device.
Am I doing something wrong or is there a workaround? Who can help me?
MORE INFO: It probably has to do with the fact that I have a Dutch version of the phone and the HHC wants to install an English version of the plugin. So where can I get a Dutch version of Home plugin of HHC???
jesus christ...... how many threads off the same content are started here???!!!
the customizer wont work?, it is normal , you dosnt have a htc-home-plugin.
the s740 is a smartphone... and the only thing a smartphone can use is the gregory-version of the plugin.
there is no dutch, no spanish, no german and so one, only wwe for all.
Thanks for the friendly reply..
its not personaly, you have just one thread .... it is a puplic-hardship
Seems the knowlegde of the average user in here is way out of my league. As you can tell I'm totally new to this. Do you have any sugestion as where I might start my search for knowledge. Maybe a website or blog, where noobs like me can learn the abc of costomizing my s740...
the s740 is a especially device, if you are a newby or advance , the only things of knowlegde about this device, is in the threads of this sub-forum. someday here is more then that, but for now its all, sorry
here is the the gregory-home-plugin (modded by me) for now, you can customize some things, like the clock and so on
OK thanks...

Hi Crazy Cat,
Thanks for the tutorial.
One question though. I don't have WinXp, only Vista (x64 Ultimate).
I sucessfully flashed the AP3 with it to my Ameo.
Can you specify, what problem could appear?
Thank you very much.
Greetz,
DeathAngel
I only heared, that there are problems. Maybe there won´t be any problems with final release.

Some suggestions, based on english google translation:
1)
This is a guide for using the AP4 updates, which the AP team has written
I will suggest to add the name of the device (athena, and vendor's name X7500 ,....) the meaning of AP team (Athena Project team) and a web link (forum.xda-dev......)
Also in important IMHO tho explain that the ROM language is WW ENGLISH only, having LOCAL configuration for currency, date, time, numbers, operator
__________________________________________________________
2)
Also:
1. It is very important that you observe these rules:
- Only with Windows XP update, since problems could occur Vista
- The cable DURING the process never separate, no matter what.
- This guide is only a portion read further ahead, so that no surprises.
- The battery has about 50% have electricity
I will call this step CHECK LIST before starting, adding
- Remove the Storage Card , if any
- The device should be connected to a USB PC port, avoiding HUB
- Disable power saver and or screen saver, if any
- Don't touch the cable or the device during the update process (only to confirm if asked)
- Close all opened application on the PC, don't run anything during the update process including MSN Messenger, ICQ, Skype and similar (I've seen below but is better to UNIFY the ckecklist I believe)
I suggest to split the check list between DEVICE and PC . Point 1 could be
Check List
DEVICE
-
-
PC
-
-
_____________________________________________
3)
3rd By updating all available data from X7500/X7501 deleted. Create a backup of the data. Uses example Spb Backup. Microdrive data are not deleted!
I don't believe that SPB backup could restore the applications on a fully new ROM, and if he does the device will never work as supposed. PIM backup is for PIM data,freeware and may be this will work. Microdrive AND STORAGE CARD are safe
____________________________________________________
4)
4th ....not even the writer(s) of this manual....
_______________________________________________
5)
5th It is not a must, but very welcome, an AP to make a donation.
Is important to "enforce" the message explaining that this is a way to say Thank you to the team, this will help to improve this ROM and this will help to have always new releases!
My Italian version below....

Usually HOW to is written and discussed BEFORE releasing the update. Then how to will be released in a final, multilanguage version, with the ROM .
This is a developer's forum, a place were the stuff is discussed BEFORE the release
thx for the answer
but i'm too impatient
Here you have Polish translation .
Here is a more interactive tutorial on the AP4 install. Please feel free to correct any errors.

Beautiful presentation! My suggestions are
1) I agree to have a beer at the end, but I will suggest AFTER a DONATE Link! Also the AP team loves the beer!
2) Flash video couldn't be printed and should be better to have AP Upgrade printed out instead of having a Flash presentation running during the update process!
3) RUU Screens translation is needed for "bad english speakers"

Installing the AP 4.0 ROM v1a - Croatian translation
Hello to all,
Here is Installing the AP 4.0 ROM v1a - Croatian translation based on BAIRDA's english original. Unfortunately I do not speak German language and I was not able to use a certainly good German original written by crazy_cat.
I hope it will help Croats (if any here) to install AP 4 ROM in the future.

Hey can anybody confirm the status of windows live on this ROM? Or is it not there?
That will be the best thing coz then i hope one of the cabs from this forum will work on it or atleast the official cab without the messenger will run atleast.
That ways we can have hotmail access and can use IM+ or Mundu IM for MSN messenger.
Anyways, heres the alternative link on 4 shared:
[Mirror Deleted as the ROM was russian and no longer needed]
UPDATE: A quick inspection of the dump of this ROM reveals that Windows Live is not there Somebody please try this ROM and install and test Windows Live on it. I have just installed my current ROM yesterday so dont want to mess up my phone right now for testing purpose :|
Also Some of the files are in Russian!! :| why so?
@Ankit360: buddy i guess you would like to try it out, you haven't used any rom other than fusion i think just asking, no offence.

NO Thanks for a quick reply
Can we convert this rom to english ?????
Are yaar first we need the english version of kitchen then only we can covert or create anything. No body has shared it yet with us, dont know why. Why everybody wants the kitchen to be secret :|
Since this ROM isn't useful as it is, i am deleting the mirror :|
PS: If anybody wants the Zuma game included in this ROM or the HTC Diamond Ringtones, i have extracted those, tell me and i'll upload.
Closed as per OP Request.

Hi there.
I'm trying to install the SGREGORY HTCHome plugin, but get an error installing it, looks like my S740 needs to be "application unlocked" ??
Any tips on how to get that fixed ?

Not really
Found the solution for the application unlock here : http://www.mobilejaw.com/articles/2009/01/removing-the-application-lock-on-htc-s740-smartphone/
But that doesn't solve the problem when installing the Gregory_HTCHomeN.cab installation. Still getting an installation error (translated from dutch: Installation unsuccesfull, program can't be installed or a setting can't be processed because of not the correct systemauthorisation is available)

I think both do the same thing - I couldn't remember the registry settings when I needed to do it, so went the easy way.
Does the homescreen need any separate plugins - smartmonitor for example?
The Greogry_HTCHomeN.cab is a standalone plugin, is doesn't need anythinh else.
It seems to be running on the "vox" an those type of Smartphones with WM6.0 and WM6.1 Standard Editions.
Can't find a specific reason why it will not run on my (dutch) htc-s740.
can you post the cab file on here - I'll take a look.

Here it is...
Hope there is al solution..
Hi. I think its because of the totally new concept of the homescreen on the WM 6.1 standard edition devices. Its different to the WM 6 edition. In my opinion, any today plugin from a WM 6 device will not run on a WM 6.1 device.
P.S. why dont you like the original homescreen HTC plugin delivered with the Rose. I think, its great and has everything from your Gregory plugin. If you like to configure the plugin on the rose, use the homescreen configurator CHome http://smartphonenutsandbolts.wordpress.com/2008/05/17/chome-configurator-for-wm-61/ Works very well on my Rose.
The gregory_htchome doesn't seem to run on my dutch S740.
Too bad, but i just doesn't work. Don't know why.
Switch back to the Standard HTC Home pugin, and play a little more with the home screen configurator.
Thanks..
it works ! it is just a little tricky . i have refresh my notebook and must mod the plugin again, ok!
tomorrow i´ll upload it for you in this thread
Where is the up ?
sorry, i have forgotten !
install the cab and restart , then sda-app-unlock and finally file-explorer over active-sync and putt the contend of the windows/htc in to the main windows folder ... to overwrite the original one. finish
I also have a problem installing the normal HTC Home plugin on my Dutch S740 phone. I'm a newbie so please be gentle.
It gives an error when I want to install a random version of the HTC Home Plugin. Something that the installation file isn't suitable for my device. Where can I download the correct version of the HTC Home Plugin for my dutch version?
do you work with the htc-home-plugin or the gregory-home-plugin ?
Aaah. we meet gain
Well I'm now working with the Gregory version you supplied and it seems to work... I'm getting better at this .
Now I have to see how to tweak this plugin. Well I will continue my search...
have fun ! there is something to mod , on this plugin!

Thanks for the plugin, it installs fine now.
Only thing not working is the WeatherApp ?
I saw a \windows\htc folder with 2 different files, should those be copied to the \windows folder ? The \htc Files are older than the original ones.
yes yes i know that ! they are much older, but there is no way out , these are very diverent versions of the weather-app , the original for the chome and the gregory for home plugin. you have to backup the original (if you want) and overwrite the files to get an working weather on gregorys-htc-home
new cab file ?? please

Hi all,
It´s not my first time posting here, I´ve got a Magician too and hardly, i´ve been able to install new roms and customize (more or less) my htc...
But i´m having problems with mi nike... I just want to find an stable rom (in spanish if its possible) and customize it more or less like the last magician rom from cotulla with manilla 2d ??? (something similar to diamond original or touch 3g). In my travel trying to do it i found a rom in htcspain that more or less worked well, but finally it started to get problems getting halt ? (stoped, i hope its the wright word) , not working some of the functions, getting to hot, slowing...
So, maybe what I need is the official rom and just try to customize it ?? I´m trying to read everything (I have not written it without trying to learn by my own) but as you can see my english is not the best and i´m just starting in this world....
So, trying to resume, can anyone tell me how to do it ?? I mean, i´ve done the hard - spl (so mi nike is now free) and i have installed roms, so i need to know wich rom to install and how to customize it (in the magician i got a file that i just installed in my pda and it did it everything alone....)
Finally, I think that it´s absolutely necessary to thank everybody here, cause you all have a lot of patiente and dedicate a precious time to help "dumb" people like me, i saw it clearly during my magician experiment....
thanks again
Hi again,
I just foun the official rom version 2.09.412.1 in spanish , now i only need the manilla file ?? or there´s best options for mi nike ???
Hi kings1204
Welcome on board, for manilla read this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=427392 don't think it is in Spanish but it is a start.
trying,
Thank you very very much
Well...
Finally done. I´ve found an spanish web which uses some material similar to yours but in spanish (maybe it´s your material translated, i don´t know) and my nike is working really really well.
Thanks rataplan for your answer. Reading the forums here gave me the knowledge to be able to install the soft i needed.

My friend, first things first...
many thanks for your post !
In addition since I'm a newbie too, what's the procedure to convert my MIO A702 from English WM6.5 to Greek one and also if anything go wrong, what's the procedure to go back to the English version ?
I'm Thanking you in advance !
@takthetank
i know it is offtopic, but i must ask... how did you add the greek holidays at your phone, as shown it the last image? Is it through the calendar? or an application?
You should have a gmail account and synchronizing it with your phone, through ActiveSync. Then just follow the instructions here: google-calendar-eortologio!!!

I have the same question. I want to translate and cook my ROM. I have the original WWE dumped. I could use some Help. Generaly I am looking for the easiest way of translating a ROM.
Solution found !!!
Dear Helleenes friends,
found the solution in this program: GREEK LENG FOR WINDOWS MOBILE POCKET PC
it's not so expensive ($49,95), Greek MIO's service demanded 60 Euros to install the Greek ROM.
Since I'm not allowed (yet) to attach an external link, make a Google search using:
Penreader Greek Language Support
and you'll find it. You can download it for a free trial, to see if it works with your device.
And the most important is that the program just translate the full menu,
in case you want to "return" to the English version all you have to do is to unistall it
By the way WORKS FINE with my MIO A702 !!!
Hope that was helpful.
Since you have your original rom already dumped you're gonna need one more rom, which is in GREEK and is for your device.
Them it's just a matter of opening both roms with osKitchen and copy paste the language files from one to the other.
If you already have the greek rom PM me to give you more help!

Unstable ROM
I tried this ROM on my HTC Mega, and i was suprised in a bad way that this ROM created problems from the first moment. The problem went so far that my usb connenction with my PC disconnected and reconnected in intervals of seconds, so that a flashing back even almost bricked my pda.
