Alternative home icon
Looks like the home icon is a useful feature that palm left out in the TX. Few days after TX's release, Ludus Technologies released SharkTXfix to replace the find icon to home.
The program works great, but there is some slight problem. SharkTXfix contains 2 prc file. SharkTXfix.prc does the changing find to home features while FixedStatusBarResources.prc change the icon to look like a home. SharkTXfix.prc is working perfectly fine. But FixedStatusBarResources.prc causes a green line on your status screen.
But don't worry, mobile stream have released another TX home fix.
While it doesn't cause the green line anymore, it does have 1 drawback. This program creates a permanent link on the recent apps menu. A permanent link back to it's website.
To me, it just turn me off.
I'll be sticking to SharkTXfix without the home icon display.

I've been using Mobile Stream's free TX Home application and I like it a lot better than SharkTXfix.
For one thing, there is a huge slow-down in performance while using SharkTXfix, based on how it ties in with the status bar/DIA, whereas I haven't seen that slow down at ALL with TX Home.
I don't think a link to a web page is really that much to ask when you're bringing up a menu of recent apps, especially considering that SharkTXfix doesn't even have the feature to bring up a list of recent applications. So if you're already satisfied with SharkTXfix, you can not use the recent apps feature of TX Home and enjoy a faster performing TX with the home icon (that works in both landscape and portrait mode) and not have to worry about crashes or resets.
The status bar prc that comes with SharkTXfix does more than just paint a green line on the Status Bar windows - it causes memory leaks, crashes, and resets.
It's very unstable, and not recommended.
