Would be nice to see how people have set up their homesreen on their S730.

So please post a screendump of yours

Here is mine (ps. dont mind that the image of the phone is a Vox):
It is the original HTC homescreen with Facade installed. Plain, boring and simple..

What does the symbol next to the charging icon mean? The one that looks like a phone with a lightning bolt on either side.

Moneytoo I can see you are using RightMenue

I installed it too but its not really compatible with the S730 is it? I uninstalled it but the button is still associated with the RightMenue...

But I mean why would you install it anyways. Isn't SmartToolKit better?

Thanks.

Edit your wanted homescreen (HTC.home.xml) in \Application Data\Home directory. And add it somewhere between other plugin tags (choose where you want to have these icons - in between what other plugins)

on the TyTN2 they could change the homescreen with extra icons by changing in the register. Could this also by us?

I've gone for the basic HTC screen with a scrolling calendar (PtkslApptPlugIn), WiFi, Profile & MRU.

Profile is at the top so it's a simple press of the D-pad button to change to vibrate or back!

Is it possible that you all can attach the .home.xml files for your homescreens when you post them? that would make this more fun and exciting. ;)

When i browse trhu my device with active synch, i can't see the HTC.home.xml file in, all other home xml files are there, Should i use another file explorer application to see it on windows? Any help will be apreciated.

You can use the Total Commander for Smartphone* which is freeware. Or using ActiveSync you can see the files on your desktop PC.

I asked Moneytoo about this also. I forgot that I didn't have system files viewable... http://www.xtra.co.nz/help/0,,4155-1916458,00.html

I've copied and edited the file easily. Now i can't replace or delete the old one in the smartphone home folder. It says read only. Now i made it! Just renamed the file to HTCSB.home and copied it into the home folder.

Ok, does anyone have a special homescreen? Most people seem to use the default HTC scree... yes me too, because I can't find something better.

Is there any download for the HTC Homescreen for the HTC Touch Cruise or HTC Touch Dual. It seems to have one more Group and shows 2 calendar Items. Can I download this simewhere and install it on the S730?

Thanks for any hints!

That looks really nice. Can you give us some direct info on which files etc you need to make that work on the Wings? I've looked at the website but there's a hell of a lot of stuff on there!

what do mean?

Oh i got these files over this page:
http://www.modaco.com/index.php?automodule=downloads&showfile=2409

Much more instruction right? :)

I installed facade and phonealarm first and selected PAH Vista (PA + Facade) as Homescreen. After that change phonealarm skin to PAH Vista_24hr and everthing is alright.

Ive tried to use Ultimate Conclusion form Prosper (http://smartphone.krisdoff.net/portfolio.php?g=4 First one) but it did not work for me. I like this style, does somebody know familar screens that works on Wings?

Works perfectly on Wings.

Overall I like it, I love the info bar with battery, signal and memory. I also however love the default HTC screen (what I use with the start menu tacked on under the calender.)

But since I open XML in Dream weaver it makes me want to mix a few things. I love the ICONS on that and that bar I mentioned ^. When I have time (ha ha) I want to try and mix the two... Havnt gone to their site yet but can you dump other info in that status section? Battery has a spot and signal in the top right bar form is okay to me.

Very nice stuff

Wow what a whole lot of cool Home Screens you guys got in this Forum (Overall) Especially like the Tabbing some People use :).

I've just Modified the HTC Home Screen which resulted in:
http://w3.JunkieXP.com/S730_-_Version_0.12.PNG

Can anyone tell me how you can add another Tab to the standard 3 HTC Home Tabs (Alarm, Weather, Favorites) or change Favorites for a Launcher like TyTN II has or something like iLauncher (using the free row which I now Use but with bigger Thumbs and 2 Lines).

Note: It's a Non Touchscreen Device so In must be able to reach the "Shortcuts" using the D-Pad. This isn't possible in the current Favorit List which totally lacks it's function.

Hello all this is my version of the HTC home plugin :

It contains:

- HTC Time/weather...
- Profile
- Last used apps
- All day event
- Upcoming appointments

Very simple and usefull.
