No HTC Home settings tab after official 6.1 upgrade

[Kosem]

Hi,

After upgrading my phone to the official 6.1 ROM, I no longer have the HTC home tab under Settings -> Today. I do have the plug-in enabled under 'Items', but am unable to configure anything.

Any ideas?

Thanks.

I have no problems with mine!
Did u flash from the OEM WM6 or a cooked ROM? If you were using a cooked ROM , see if changing back to your OEM SPL will assist.
I suggest u Hard reset and if that still does'nt work reflash with a freshly downloaded OEM ROM.
I have had no problems with my HTC WM 6.1 ROM at all.
The touch screen seems less responsive though.

I have noticed lags in 6.1 both using the on screen and the hardware keyboard. But that's actually nothing compared to an annoying "press OK to continue loading the contents of this page" and some other PIE-based troubles.

That settings tab is a feature of some cooked ROMs. Since you're using the official ROM, you won't see it.

HTC Home version 2.1.1005.722 has the settings/personal/today tab. Good luck finding it as a cab.

I am not using a cooked ROM. I'm using the official HTC downloadable update for the Kaiser, and I can enable the HTC Home under Settings/Today/Items . It doesn't have (doesn't need) any options. I also see the HTCHomeplug (quite useless, but works if I turn it on). I also have HTC Plus! , much better than the HTChomeplug, don't remember where I downloaded it from, worked on 6.0 and works perfectly under 6.1.

I'm using dutty's April 29th rom and i also dont have the settings, i dont want the weather icon.

There are third-party utilities that let you customize the HTC home. I have used one called HHC, very nice.

I have HTC Home Customizer but it makes my HTC home buttons look older. Currently i have the "bubble" looking onces, they are more transparent and round, if i use HHC it makes it go back to the old blocky buttons.

Just install this http://rapidshare.com/files/70344158/HTC.Home.v2.1.1005.722.Directory.Fix.Only.schen.ca b.zip

And you'll have HTC Home tab in Today settings.

Thanks all; Karolis, that worked for me.

Pity it did not solve the real issue - iGO8 not working with HTC home running.
I was hoping disabling the weather/music tabs would help - but no such luck.

I the solution for the annoying "press ok to continue" problem. Using a registry editor, navigate to HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main and make sure BlockStaticActiveX is set to zero.
