Hey ppl,

I just upgraded my Touch Cruise to WM6.1 with the official ROM from the HTC site. It installed without any problems. I've noticed that the music tab is missing from my HTC Home menu. I checked in the settings, and the music option was checked. I unchecked it, and then checked it, and still no luck. I disabled HTC Home, and then reenabled it, but to no avail.

I checked some websites that show how to adjust the tabs using a registry editor. I did this (added a new string called TabSetting and made the value 1,2,3,4,5) and HTC Home responds to it by showing all tabs except the music tab (which is tab 5). I don't know what's wrong. If I adjust the registry value (e.g. make it 1,2,3) then it shows those 3 tabs only, which means it works for all the tabs except the music tab.

When I select Today in the Settings page, I have the Appearance tab and the Items tab. On my previous ROM, I Installed the HTC Home 6 Tab plugin, and that gave me the extra tab in the Today Settings page to choose which tabs I wanna show in HTC Home. So I installed the 6-tab plugin, and tried to adjust it there. It makes changes to the registry value TabSetting, but still HTC Home does not show my music tab!

I've flashed the ROM again, I've hardreset .... but it won't work. Can anyone figure this out please?

Also, is it just me or has the SMS become slower? I like the threaded SMS idea, but for some reason when I'm typing, I have to type a lot slower than my previous ROM.

On the upside, WM6.1 seems to be quicker in doing some other things. Let's hope my HTC Home problem is not permanent ...

Edit: yes, I've been to this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=396016&highlight=music+tab+htc+home and it didn't solve my problem no matter how many times I've tried. I've even followed the YouTube video about this.

Just fixed it. I found a link for the HTC Home plugin for the original ROM of the Touch Cruise, and it now shows my music tab.
