We have many ROM for our Prophet. The problem is, we saw some of these programs available in some ROM and not in the other ROM. So, let we share these programs, tweaks and tips.
Dutty Explorer
I am starting with Dutty Explorer, based on GSFinder+, a very good replacement to default File Explorer (even with extensions like Spb Plus and HouMing File Explore Extension), plus latest version of gsgetfile.dll compatible with WM6.
We have Resco Explorer but not Freeware. Total Commander CE is good, but not the interface.

SQPC is a program (MULTI-PURPOSE TOP MENU BAR) that as old as my age.....
But, flexible that you can alter it anyway you like, the main reason why I had it kept as personally I love that one tap finish actions too much, like copy, paste, input selector, soft-keyboard pop up.........
Goodness:-
1. SWAPPABLE TOP BAR with any Length / Programmable / Executable Icon you like,
2. Clipboard 10 history too easy to use ( very very good for my study use),
3. Clock and Calendar on the screen is plug-ins,
4. left side program shortcuts,
5. any back ground images, automatic rotate selectable,
6. single tap actions for any programs / files....
7. Less than 300 KB in file size........
Weakness:-
1. Too many functions for juniors, ( for me, just a junior user, I had explored its 50% of features only.... there are more advance feartures like to call out parameters......)
2. UI is not too fancy~~~
I would like to share the .ini file of it so everyone can give it a try.
PLEASE BE SURE THAT YOU HAD THE SQPC.rar.zip changed to SQPC.rar before unzip.
Thanks for all of yours attention. Please correct me if I am wrong !

Thanks for you compliments.
To customise the HTC ActionScreen you can change the total number of icons, the size and shape of icons, their position, the image, and what is launched by pressing the icon.
All reg settings are contained within [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\Biotouch\ActionScreen]
Each Application reg file is numbered sequentially starting with App_0 going up to the total number of icons -1 (for 8 icons, App_0 to App_7).
Each icon can be shifted to where it is wanted by changing the xPos and yPos dwords, the top left of the screen is xPos 0 yPos 0, with yPos being the vertical distance, and xPos being the horizontal distance from the top right of the screen in pixels. This must be a positive value. The image files can be located anywhere, including the storage card.
Any image can be used, so long as it is converted into a *.brn, and matches the dimensions of the reg file.
The "name" registry entry is the text that appears to the right of the image, as of yet I know no way of changing its position other than moving the entire icon.
This works on other devices with the HTC ActionScreen.
Code:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\Biotouch\ActionScreen]
"Default"=""
"Check"=dword:00000001
"Row"=dword:00000007 [RIGHT]Number of rows[/RIGHT]
"Column"=dword:00000001 [RIGHT]Number of columns[/RIGHT]
"BaseImage"="" [RIGHT]Background image[/RIGHT]
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\Biotouch\ActionScreen\APP_0]
"Default"=""
"Name"="" [RIGHT]Text displayed next to the icon[/RIGHT]
"Path"="" [RIGHT]What's launched by pressing[/RIGHT]
"IconPressPath"="" [RIGHT]Image shown when pressed[/RIGHT]
"yPos"=dword:00000028 [RIGHT]Position relative to the top (in pixels)[/RIGHT]
"Width"=dword:000000f0 [RIGHT]Width of icon[/RIGHT]
"IconPath"="" [RIGHT]Basic icon[/RIGHT]
"Param"="" [RIGHT] Parameters of what is launched[/RIGHT]
"Type"=dword:00000000 [RIGHT]Type (no idea...)[/RIGHT]
"xPos"=dword:00000000 [RIGHT]Position relative to left of screen (pixels)[/RIGHT]
"IconSelectPath"="" [RIGHT]Image displayed when selected[/RIGHT]
"Height"=dword:00000028
Attached are image files demonstrating it.
thank for the nice guide..
will try to edit it..
ActionScreen from program files...
Put all the default .brns in \Program files\ActionScreen, import this, soft reset and then it should run from program files rather than windows (or whereever it is running from) to help reduce the size of the windows dir...
And... ActionScreen from storage card...
Put all the default .brns in \Storage Card\ActionScreen, import this, soft reset and then it should run from program files rather than windows (or whereever it is running from) to help reduce the size of the windows dir...
good work! btw, have you one of the latest action screen cab?
if yes, can you link it?
Thankx
I have 'v1.00'...
downloaded, thankx
No probs...
Now in green! Copy the .brns to whatever directory you have set as the default...

Still the same as you used to with WM5, no change in that. You can disable HTCHome in Today Settings pane. Don't forget to restart (soft reset).
Thanks sir...

I'm using one of Dutty's roms and I'm wondering what registry change would need to be made to make the ActionScreen button go away, and be replaced by Calendar.
I like the old way of doing things.

You may have a shortcut to "SoftKeys" under the System tab of the Settings. If not, look at this: http://www.dotfred.net/SoftkeyAppletEx.htm
It's simpler than using the registry and tends to work better...
Hey Guys/Gals
Im still getting into the whole fuss and fun of playing aorund with my ROM on my HD2 and recently upgraded to the newest version (Nov10->Feb11) and am not sure how to actually get some of the settings/display back to how it previously was (getting used to it and all )
I installed http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=5044378&postcount=2 on my HD2 and noticed the image on the far left (Lock screen) is how i remember it but for the life of my i cant seem to get it back to how it looked...
I have the left right scoll option but just cant seem to find the setting to push/change to get it back to how it once was
I know its a basic question and option but i liked the options of having all the call/sms history with the swipe down then password layout.
I noticed that there have been Scene updates over the 2010/2011 change and im starting to think its been changed over with them... Does anyone know of an history section mabey with the last/pre scene release?
Currently i have installed
Energy.Leo.21916.Sense2.5.Cookie.2.0.Feb.01.7z
Did you try and/or check all the options of CHT?
For the lockscreen, you have several options which you´ll find in CHTE.
If you´re not familiar with the great CHT solution and its editor, please check out the introduction in the original thread. All this is cooked into the ROM you´re using.
I was having a play around with it but before i flashed i was able to use the pin number option and still have the slide down to unlock...
hxxp://img211.imageshack.us/img211/5895/phonewa.jpg
This image shows the diffrences which are between the image and my phone with the rom...
THe more i look at it the more i think i wont be able to bring the settings back i think
The editor has 3 options and the one whihc looks the closest if the HD mini but still does not allow for pincodes so i read...
the lockscreen you are showing is the android lockscreen that is part of the rom. it is not the CHT lockscreen (though CHT has an android option as well.)
fyi, energy rom has 2 lockscreens - windows and android (part of all roms, whether CHT is present or not).
to use this make sure CHT lockscreen is disabled. then go to settings > other > change lockscreen. it will prompt you that it will soft reset and give you a message about what screen it will change to. i believe, as this is not CHT, you can use a pin code without a problem.
also, for future, this type of question would be best in the Energy rom thread - really people there would help you quite quickly.
cheers.

CHT is disabled and there is no "Other" option in the settings panel
I dont think it allowed me to post in there when i first tried but it seems to let me now :S
go to settings on the manila slider (not via the start menu).
then go to Other (miscellaneous). you will see change lock screen.
this is standard on energy roms (i have the same rom as you.)
and i forgot about the new user rules and posting; apologies.
Options i have is
AGPS Settings
Car Kit Mode
Start Menu Layout Switch
Format SD CArd
Device Info
Wide Device
Get Carrier Time
SMS Threading
Keylock Settings {Only allows me to set passwords and nothing else}
Uploader
Location Setting
Autodata COnfig
No lock screen settings
hmm. in the FAQ of the rom i see:
Q: How can I Revert back to Original WM LockScreen instead of the Android one?
A1: Start -> Settings -> Personal -> Switch Lockscreens.
does this work (it will switch between the 2)?
Fixed it !!! Needed 28244
Ok well i fixed it... (watched a youtube vid where they mentioned the bottom bottons showing onbly in 6.5.x not the std 6.5 and that lead me to the description stating the 6.5.x)
Seems the rom u have installed is 28244 were i had 21916...
Installed 28244 and it looks just like it did before lock screen and all eve the buttons on the bottom
So ill know now for future now which one to install
Its a shame its midnight now and i have to resetup my phone
All is well now..
Also i see our Lock Screen options now, using 28244
ya know, i saw that but thought his 6.5 roms had that option (never had used them though.) glad it is working.
and for next flash, look into xda_uc (i use xda_uc_net)...with CHTS...saves time and you are up and running in 20 minutes or so.
cheers.
Hi
I've got a problem with the app-drawer in Krabappels ICS rom 20.1 (similar to this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=26959034&postcount=2504 ): When I open it, I have 6 windows with 4 columns and at least 5 rows, while the 5th row is barely visible (maybe the first 3-4 lines of pixels of an icon), sorting is "last installed" and it's the same with "alphabetically" and "last used".
If I chose my own sorting, I've got 8 windows and a 4x4 matrix, so I can see every app. Funny fact: I never used this before, so there can't be any positioning infos for the icons
I tried deleting the cachepartition in boot recovery (including Dalvik-Cache), deleting app-caches and history via Android Assistant, but it's allways the same. And I also didn't find the mentioned "Clear Cache" button. Is there a way to "tell" the app-drawer to use either more windows OR a 4x4 matrix for the automated sortings?
Images:
Sorting: alphabetically, last used, last installed:
Sorting: Own sortation:
Hi.
I updated to KA21.1 with a fresh install (formatting system, cache, data, etc.; made a factory reset) and the App-Drawer Issue is no longer. But I got another Question now: How can I add a folder to my Home Screen? There is one Folder named Media in the bottom bar, so there is no problem with showing folders in general, but when I try to add shortcuts, there is no option to make a new folder.
And theres a second, more serious problem: The right button doesn't show a menu any more, I can't get into the device settings!
I don't think, krabappel is looking into this forum, so could anybody please tell him to answer my questions? Since I may not post in the developers area ...
**wtf, I have to wait 5 minutes for an edit? ohhwww ... this freaky forum is NOT userfriendly
Draw one app from the appdrawer to your homescreen and put it on another app and then you get a folder
Sometimes you must it figure it out by yourself and posting in a hurry a new thread, you can ask it in general chat in Q/A topic and about your 1st post, go to settings then apps click on all, scroll down till you see xperia home, click on it and erase data, dont ask where just see it by your own and that is here more then enough explained buddy, just search
sent from my Xperia Neo V Supercharged ICS 4.0.4
SOLVED
Hi.
Thanks. I read that with the folder somewhere (perhaps samsung touchwhiz?), but I didn't know, KA21 was now using that, too.
About the app drawer: Since I made a fresh install, it's working fine now. I did a search for that and found the respective post, but I misunderstood the part where it says "Xperia Home >>App<<", I thought it was the entry in the device settings "Xperia (tm)", and there was no way to clear any cache ^^ But now I know, where to look at. I also found a way to enter the device settings, circuitous but it's ok.
Thank you very much again. Sometimes the only thing one needs is just a cue

This looks incredible, I'll be using this. Thanks mate
Im stuck at this step. If I press restore widget...I get to the RSS Widget Config. Pls guide
Setting up the Lolli-Tab home screen
------------------------------------------------------------
Tap: Tap to restore widget (middle of screen) and load the LT_Home_screen template from the SD Card option.
If this is a fresh installation of Nova Launcher grand it permission to Create widget and allow access,
Tap: resize or tap to start and load the LT_Home_screen from the SD Card option.

I will revise that step, it's unclear, sorry
If you load the LT_settings in Nova and exit the program, you already can tap: resize or tap to start (middle of the screen) and load the LT_Home_screen from the SD Card option in Zooper.
Please let me know if you got it setup

Got it working now - was using Zooper Free and not Zooper Pro. thx
I'm struggling with sizing the Home Screen widget as Zooper widget sizes are limited. Nor does the Zooper scaling help.
Pls advise whether I'm doing cowrrect procedure.
1. Open a new widget
2. Select Zooper widget
3. select size (tried 1x1; 4 x 4; 4x2; 6x2 )
4. Then tap to resize or start
5. select sd card/LT Home Screen
6. Exit
Where do I go wrong?
Wrong thread
All working . Thx
Hey Mokum,
Very nice theme!
I'd like to use it on my 10inch Asus Transformer, but I don't get the homescreen so crispy as you do.
Is that because of the dpi? Or the resolution?
Please reply!

I looked it up for you and it's '1280 x 800 pixels (~149 ppi pixel density)'

Separate widgets?
Hello,
fantastic job, even the other system info widget on the other thread, and very accurate explanation about how to configure everything.
From my point of view I see only one problem: such widgets are perfect for landscape but practically unusable for portrait, and having a Tab S 8.4 the last one is my most used mode.
I don't know if I'm asking too much or you already have tought about... Maybe you like my idea and you'll decide to do for yourself first
1) What if you make many different widgets instead of a big one? In such way you would give maximum modularity to them. It would be possible to use in portrait too, people could change order, etc.
The same for the info widget on the other thread.
2) What if you add customization using ZWUtilities even with these widgets like Meteo, Music, News, Calendar etc.?
3) What if you make at least "blank" 4x1, 4x2, 4x4 widgets, where "blank" means pastel coloured header with 3 stripes on the left upper corner, and white or dark background below... Luckily always with ZWUtilities customization to have a coherent theme.
To be sincere, I'm already trying to extrapolate elements by the big widget you already made, simply I personally miss the time to go fast on this job, so if you like the idea and you want to extend by yourself your own work I'll be happy too
However, really congratulations again for what you already made! And sorry for my english, isn't my primary language and I hope my ideas was enough clear.
