Hey fellow Kaiser users,
I'm currently using the Tilt, with Dutty's touchflo rom. I have a few things that I was wondering whether or not can be done within the device. Can these be done? If so, how?
1. Setting TCPMP as default player within the HTC Home Plugin to be able to control the next and previous options from the home screen (assuming just using it for audio purposes) or use a skin on top of TCPMP that looks similar to that of HTC Audio Manager
2. Set S2U2 to startup with device so that you don't have to select it in order for it to run. If this is not possible, is there a way to change the items included in the quick launcher, so that S2U2 or some other program can replace some items included in the launcher?
That's all I can come up with right now, any help would be greatly appreciated.
Oh and by the way, Dutty, your custom ROM is awesome, glad I found it.
I can't help you with TCPMP but if you use a program like Battery status it will give you the ability to set up a tray launcher which will allow you to set up s2u2 there which is what I do along with some other apps. Heres a picture of it in the middle it gives you meters you can set up at the bottom is the tray launch.

For tcpmp, to set it as default, go to options>settings> slect page>file association> check all that you need. Exit the program. Reset the device. and you should be good to go.
I've set all the file associations within TCPMP, but this doesn't set it within the HTC Homepage Plugin and allow you to control it from the homepage. If I could get this to work, it would be awesome, but it may not be possible. If that's the case I guess I'll just have to use TCPMP's not-very-aesthetically pleasing interface. . But I can deal with it, it works, so I guess that's good enough.
The HTC Home plugin only works with Windows Media Player or HTC Audio Manager.
S2U2 loads up fine for me after a soft reset. It can be selected to be used in the Home Plugin in the normal way or assigned to a hardware button or soft key.
For some reason mine doesn't automatically load after a soft reset, I have to either launch the configuration tool or the application itself in order to use it. Does anyone happen to know if there is a way to, or exist a theme similar to the appearance of the HTC Audio Manager?
Thanks for all your help everyone!

You should be able to set it to come on by defult with "S2U2 Setting" (most likely found in your "system Tools" folder). Make sure you have the faollowing set to ON:
-Start on wake up
-Start on backlit off
then click:
-Save
-Yes
That should do it.

Guys I am sure some of you have come up with this program already but I thought posting a link to it since its free and works great with the Kaiser when you want to switch/open/close applications without pulling out the stylus.

I configured it to open with the PTT button and then use the wheel to move/select between the options (Active,close,close all)
Hope you find it usefull.

Thanks - I haven't seen this before.
Your link is dead - looks right but goes to the wrong place. I got it with a copy/paste though.
I installed it and it gave the "this program may not display properly because it was designed for an older version of windows" thing. I downloaded the WM6 version and am running it on WM6.
The program did not appear in my Applications. It was not available to be assigned to a button either.
It was sitting there in the Program Files directory though, and I could run it from there.
Looks pretty good. I like the controls and everything - but its a bit disappointing that it doesn't pull the correct icon for every program and you have to do it manually. I don't see myself doing that - so if I'm going to use it I would use it with the default icons.
I think I like it and would probably use it if I can get it to assign to a button.

To be honest its only when its assigned to a button that you will see the benefits specially if its the PTT which is next to the wheel.
Funny you say that. I tried checking my buttons settings and now it doesnt show up on the list of applications however its still assigned to the PTT button so I dont want to mess with it lol in case I screw it up..
Have you tried re-installing it?
I agree with the Icons being a pain although we tend to use the same applications very often so it might not be too much of a hassle.
UPDATE
Its back on the list of my applications available. I have assigned it to button 6 PTT

I had a Today screen plugin that I was using, and I have no idea how I got it, but I did a hard reset and now I have lost it. I'm using Sleuth 3, but it doesn't seem to be part of the ROM.
It consisted of a narrow status area that showed the name of my network operator and below that my wireless LAN status (disconnected or not) on the left, and then on the right side of the screen it showed whether my Bluetooth was on or off. I know there are probably a million plugins that look like that, but maybe somebody could point me in the right direction!
i think those both are just today screen items...go to start menu, settings, today, then the items tab. I would think its some kind of bluetooth or BT box you have to check...it depends on what type of rom your using...
~j
lol we both had the same posts....
until now

I tried ticking all the available options and it never seemed to appear. I found a screenshot of someone else that was using it on the Today screen post. In the attached image, have a look at the plugin that says AT&T with WiFi and the Bluetooth symbol. Anybody recognize it?

Kaiser Tweak
Download and install Kaiser Tweak and about 3/4 way down you will find the option to enable "Wireless Today", this is what you are looking for.
It is already in your ROM you just need to tool to enable it.
Aaah, that makes sense, because I didn't remember installing it last time and I had fiddled with Kaiser Tweak. Got it back, thanks for the help!
I use a today plugin that allows me to switch BT/WiFi/Phone on/off as required - get it from http://www.paulbdesign.com/effcomm/ (the screenshot - capture0001.jpg - shows you what it looks like, so you can see what you're getting before you download it ).
It's nice and simple, doesn't use much screen real estate and it does what it says on the tin.....

i'm trying real hard but i cant see any plugin that says at&t, in fact i dont see anything on the today screen......am i even looking at a today screen? cause all i see is a naked woman
yeah, the t-mobile wing came with that today plug-in. it is labled 'TMO ONS' on the items menu.
i beleive its a built in software
It is built in - it's the Wireless Manager today applet.....
Download the attached CAB file, install it and then select "Wireless" in the list of items (you can move it up/down to get it where you want it). When you go back to your Today screen, it will be displayed.
There's a registry hack, and probably a CAB somewhere, that will allow CommManager to be launched when you tap on the Wireless plugin - you can search the Hermes Wiki for that one
Hope that helps you out....
Mark.
This is the original T-Mobile ONS cab that I got out of the Wing's extended rom. I use it on my xv6700 for Verizon and it works fine. It already links to the comm manager and the date links to
Clocks and Alarms shortcut in the settings menu.
thanks for those today screen plugins. I should mention though that they only work on htc devices.
Hi folks
I'm having a problem with HTC's Audio Manager. When starting it up I get a corrupted display (see attachment).
The 'Player' menu item is also not displaying anything, so I take it the application has crashed
Has anyone else experienced this or better yet know a solution?
Thanks in advance

Yep. The same thing happend to me to when I activated the Music tab on Today screen and maximized the Audio Manager from running task list. When I switched from portrait to landscape it cleared up. Reboot didn't make a difference. I ended up deactivating the "Music" tab.
When I just start Audio Manager from "Programs" it's not messed up.
Thanks! Switching display modes does fix the display
Hopefully this will be fixed in a later version of HTC Audio Manager
Don't open audio manager through the tab and then maximize it through another program like wktask. what you have to do is click the tab again to actually open the program. that fixed it for me. I would get problems when i didn't do it that way.
I think I found a way around it ever corrupting. I had the same problem but this last time I installed the app (I've been flashing ROMs... a lot! ), the first thing I did was open audio mgr through the Programs icon, created a Playlist and played some music.
I then closed it and went to the Today music "tab" and when I click it once, it automatically loads the list and displays the first song in the little window; if I click again (with a song name displayed) it pops open the full Audio Mgr app without any corruption.
Just my two cents, hope this works for you.

Sounds completely unlogical... so reasonable enough for an MS product
Next time I flash, I'm definetly gonna try it out.
Install the seperate today plugin
Try installing the seperate today plugin. You don't need it enabled but I think installing it will help with the problem.

Hi
Is there a task switcher software that allows to switch tasks by pressing a hardware key. I mean, that allows to map a hardware key so you can for example switch among taks by just pressing let's say the OK key?
I wonder if there is some solution so I don't have to go back all the time to the TODAY screem to the task drop down thing to switch programs, or that I dont have to open the SPB Mobile Shell task thing to do that.
Maybe is there also a task switcher software that could remain an icon on top of every application so it could be accessed quick as another quick solution to switch?
Thanks in advance for any help!
i use this little app for this. as usual, i don't know where i found it, so i'll just attach it here.
extract exe file to your device, create shortcut in start menu and then assign it to some hardware key
Hi antihrist
Thanks a lot for AltTab! I installed it already and its working nicely. It is great and light app. I also got info about VITO TaskSwitcher, wich comes included with VITO Buttonmapper installation. I'm testing it too and it looks good. Also a great sollution, and nice look, though not light as AltTap. So great I can switch now, it's time saving and so much confortable!
Again thanks for your help!
Try also the one attached here....

WkTask is the best task manager hands down... Launcher and other goods make it even better.
If you have Spb Pocket Plus, it also lets you assign a button to open task manager (the Spb TM). Then just tap on the app you want and bring it up. More steps then the AltTab app, but if you like to have many apps open, I find it better then cycling through them all.
I use pBar, lightweight easy to access from task bar and has lots of other useable goodies. And free

How do it change function of left "OK" button?
Dynamo needs some developement as it's a bit thirsty but it's already my choice. Can be mapped to any button.

Thanks to all!
Faviopac, thanks for the .cab file, I'll try WkTaskL too.
Guys, thanks a lot to all! Seems that I have now material to study and choose from. It's a fact that i did not know about aplications like this, till I felt the need and miss it and asked here. I got this HTC TyTN II since some months ago and was focused in other learnings since then and enjoying it. But was starting to miss this switching stuff, they are most have!
denco7, I'll have a look to pBar, thanks for the link! And, branball, will give a try to Dynamo, thanks! I'm glad I have more than I needed now, just have to choose... For the moment I definitely think that I'll go for the apps that display a list of open tasks where you can choose to bring it up, like the one gwnorth was telling about. I'm testing now, of that kind, TaskSwitcher 2.0 wich I found also as independent app (separated of Vito buttonmapper), it brings up also a list of open taks to choose from. I also will try the ones you posted here, wich I super appreciate.
Question appart: I am using Spb mobile shell, wich I find great and better everyday, what's the difference or adventage (if any) of Spb Pocket Plus vs Mobile shell, they are for similar uses at the end (?) I havent test Pocket plus...yet.

Thank you v. mutch
Installed perfectly on my Treo 750.
Thanks.
Is it possible to customize the buttons on the today screen, say replace the music tab/button with something else.
mine installed very nicely but the top and bottom bar are still green, how do I change them to black, so it will match the rest? I have a 750 with 6.1
Found it UI Tweaks solved the problem

Very different...
Not only is the interface different, but so is the way you can move through tabs (Try searching youtub for TouchFlo 3D for an idea). Here are some shots of the interface. Everything is now integrated so that the cube is no longer needed.
How can I get the Blutooth symbol to show up in a different place? Right now I have to scroll down to see it
HI, Its'very nice, but is there a way to install all the programs it needs to be almost the same as the photos that SONUS posted, like the Music Player, The favorite pepople (actually it shows little squares), etc???????
Click on the square and it will ask you
where are the cabs for this?
Yes, i know, it will assign a person, but I'm talking about that effect that we can see on the pictures that SONUS posted.

Launch Music Player
All seems well except for 2 issues.
1. When I attempt to launch the music player, I receive the following error:
"AudioManager.exe
The file 'AudioManager' cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate or one of it's components cannot be found. If the problem persists, try reinstalling or restoring this file."
I use Windows Media Player...can I map the launch button to it?
2. When assigning Programs to the launcher, I cannot see a way to browse to the progs that I have on my storage card. Is there a way around this?
Thanks in advance,
Kevin
