Default Wizard BrandedBrowser.exe T-Mobile UK wanted

After changing my Dutch Vario to UK everything is working ok except the today plugin for T-Mobile. It looks as the shortcut for the T-Mobile option (The one that's warning your going online) is just calling the exe BrandedBrowser. After that nothing happens. Modifying the HTCtodayscreen.dll to change the shortcut also doesn't work. So I hope someone can post the original T-Mobile UK BrandedBrowser.exe.

thanks jimmy_boy for the UK BrandedBrowser.exe
I will giveit a try and see if I can change the default homepage from T-Mobile UK into the Dutch T-Mobile startpage.

Upgrading the Vario from Dutch to English was simple, just followed the instructions to CID unlock the device and then start the UK exe file. Toke about 20 minutes. I have the feeling that the English rom is a little bit faster. It now show 1.6.2.4 WWE instead of 1.6.2.2 NLD

Also patched the WLAN to connect at 54Mbps. So, I'm very happy with my Vario.

Default Missing files

Hi.
I copied the file to my \windows directory and launched the file (in a non-T-mobile ROM) and I get the popup box that I am about to go online. I click OK and the box disappears but nothing happens. Do I also need to install the web'n'walk.cab and/or are there required registry entries?

Yes, I know have a TyTN and 8525 (I do have the T-mobile ROM for that phone but the result is the same). Is there something that is launching that T-mobile US does not recognize?

Appreciate that this is an old thread but in order to use the t-mobile brandedbrowser you need to add (or modify) 2 registry entries:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\PIEPlug]
"WebStub"=dword:00000000
"home"="http://www.t-mobile-favourites.co.uk"

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\OEM\PIEBrowser]
"Path"="\Windows\BrandedBrowser.exe"

(change the UK www address to your own countries web address)

Working OK on my HTC Touch Dual.

Regards,
