Don't think it's possible, and I hav'nt noticed much Lag since installing SU2U.
Might depend on your ROM
well im using the htc home screen and that's it really it. and I just figured S2U2 was just making my system laggy. but idk I just didn't know if there was a way to be able to do that. alright it was worth the try to ask. I just figured since texts show up could the rss headlines show up. cool. ty
bump plz. i need more opinions on if this is possible and the lag concern with S2U2

so i got a t-mobile wing. my first smart phone. its amazing. anyways i have a few questions:
1. Where can i get a nice big digital clock today screen plugin? i see them on screen shots of peoples screens but i can't find any.
2. Are there any good weather today screen plugins?
3. Some people (or at least on other devices) have SMS as a softkey, mine are calendar and contacts, is there a simple option to make the calendar softkey be SMS instead? or do i have to edit the registry or something crazy like that to get it?
4. Do i really have to worry about viruses on this thing? i saw something like WM5 Anti Virus program, so im just wondering.
5. What is the best browser to use?
if you guys could help me that would be great. i have yet to find a forum about WM6 or the Wing that where people actually go to the site.
All of those and more are located within the forum in easy to find threads. The great thing about looking around the forum is you will find stuff out that you never even thought of. I would recommend reading and getting acquainted to the forums, its a much better way to learn than someone just linking you somewhere. And congrats on your new Wing.

this is HTC home plugin
2. Are there any good weather today screen plugins?
HTC home plugin shows weather. if not try SPB Weather, SPB Traveler, SPB phone suite (the only ones I have experience with)
3. Some people (or at least on other devices) have SMS as a softkey, mine are calendar and contacts, is there a simple option to make the calendar softkey be SMS instead? or do i have to edit the registry or something crazy like that to get it?
Go to Settings, Buttons to change the softkeys
4. Do i really have to worry about viruses on this thing? i saw something like WM5 Anti Virus program, so im just wondering.
In my opinion, no not really ... just be considerate of what you install on your phone and what executable files you run.
5. What is the best browser to use?
I haven't settled on one yet, but I use Mozilla's MINIMO and OPERA 8.X apart from IE.

Hope this helps
i guess my other post didn't show up? well every search results in HTC Home or TouchFlo.
i don't want all the stuff from HTC home, just the clock and simple weather, no tabs or any of that stuff. is there a way to have just the clock and/or weaher?
and thanks for your help
also, going to settings>buttons has no optinos for softkeys, only hardware keys.
opera mobile is a lot better, i like how you can scroll by dragging on the screen.
I do use Opera most of the time, I've just always been a big supporter of Mozilla stuff ... so I keep it around
I just wanted to give you a few options so you could try them out for yourself and see what you liked.
i havn't tried minimo because i heard it was slow and uses a lot of memory. is that true?
Dear all,
Try as I might, I can't find an answer to this one. I've been a regular reader of all things XDA for a while but here's my first post....
I have a shiny new O2 Ignito (HTC Diamond?). It all seems quite good but the included Opera browser rarely rotates its screen orientation when you turn the device (as it is supposed to.) Other Touchflo apps rotate quite happily. In particular, the photo album app responds almost instantaneously. The "teeter" game is also proving quite popular with the rest of the family....
However, Opera only ever responds to vigorous shaking, or just doesn't rotate at all.
Is there a g-sensor sensitivity parameter for Opera that I'm missing somewhere? I'm quite happy to have a go at a registry hack or xml modification etc....
Cheers,
Michael
Same problem here brother. With mine, if it goes into landscape, it actually goes into landscape and then shoes the homescreen. Then I have to go into the taskman to bring the app back up.
Its very strange. Windows ftl
Download the Skyfire browser it rotates with out shaking.
wow the demos of that browser look great... apparently it has built in flash? nuts.. gonna try and track down a copy right now.
thanks!

Skyfire is not available for people outside the US :-(. And it doesn't support VGA screen. Quite limited to me indeed.
For the rotation problem, you can install Gsen and make the rotation more responsive. And for the flash, there is a version of flashlite that can be used in diamond. I tried that and I could view youtube videos from within Opera.
Yes, I originally thought there's something wrong with my phone's G sensor as the browser rotates but rarely. But I have heard people mentioning this issue (more than once). So, there's nothing wrong with my phone then .
wrong info, sorry.
All good info so far. I'll try and locate Gsens and take a look.
Ive Tried Various Software And Cant Figure It Out.
what exactly are you after? I'm a little confused.. do you have a screen shot to show what your after?

To do this you will require either htc home ,spb, manilla, or throttlelauncher. These applications actually replace your home screen to give you these tabs. There may be a shortcut menu application but any way you look at it, it isnt a native part of the OS.
FYI,
HTC Home, Manilla , Throttlelauncher are free apps you can find by using the search buttons
Thanks. I Know About All These Apps But Ive Seen Screen Shots And Plugins That Didnt Use These Apps.

Note.... a plugin is an application. Not a part of the actual rom. Again, you are looking for an application that will do this.
I hope this clears things up for you

I Think It Has To Do Wth Editing The Home Settings Xml File
Hey guys, you should check out the progress we've made over on the Diamond forum with the Yota Contacts application. Here's a link to a thread I created summarizing everything done so far...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=475568
The version in the first posts works perfectly on my ATT Fuze with the latest RomeOS on it. I'm sure it works great with all your Touch Pro's as well
like no errors at all? even when accessing contacts in landscape? what about the dialer in landscape?

No error, but a white block on the right side of the screen.
what about removing it? does it revert back all the way?
definitely beutiful!
Landscape gets cutoff... but hey...
It's also completely removable
yah i tried it but i got rid of it due to the lack of landscape support for contacts. dialer didnt bother me much though. if someone fixes the landscape ill hook them up with some tracker invites, granted they want them
I keep going back and forth between the two on my Imagio, but I think once we get TF3D 2.5 I'll be able to stick with HTC's software. Question is: Will the Imagio handle it well?
BTW thanks for the resource here!
me too, I have been going back in forth between the current touchflo version on the Imagio and SPB Mobile Shell.
Has anyone come up with a tweak yet for touch flo 3d 2.5 for the Imagio.
SPB MS 3.5 for me
I have been playing with TouchFlo since the first version on the HTC Touch and it is just too much work. I downloaded MS3.5 and I couldn't be happier. It takes up fewer resources and the customization is as easy as dragging and dropping. I use the leisure theme with a five panel widget home screen. You can add picture frames as widgets among other cool items. The contact management is integrated with Facebook automatically and the smart dial is awesome. If I decide I want to do custom icons later, I can get as deep into the xml component as I want.

See, now, I get the whole "pretty" thing with this shell, but I found it to be just too confusing because it has a lot of redundancies. On the other hand, TouchFlo by HTC is really powerful, but it needs more "clues" to find all of its functionality. Idunno..I just wish we could get this thing hspl unlocked so that the gurus can start cooking up some new roms..
TF3D does not work for me. I need to quickly check email and delete tehm on the fly and access many parts of the phone. Why cant we load the new Sense UIon the Imagio. MS 3.5 is great but the contacts and dialer are badly broken. I cant search for contacts easily by typing parts of the name (only searches file as field) and from the dialer screen you cannot get into the details of a contact to E.G. select an alternate number to dial.
I have been trying both on my new imagio, and am currently sticking with SPBMS3.5. The main reason is that for some reason, the text messaging interface with TF3D messes up my ability to rotate to landscape when replying to a message. I am not sure why...
I have hard reset, and it works for a short period of time, because it seems to be using the standard Winmo texting interface. After receiving a message from a contact, the interface seems to switch to a custom TF3D version, and I can no longer use the landscape keyboard.
Plus I like that I can have virtually all the things I need on a sweetly configured main screen at one tap.
My two cents...

The folks over at PPCGeeks have unlocked the Imagio! And there are a number of ROMs already ready for flashing. As for TF3D and Mobile Shell, I have found no issues with TF, and with the new Cookies home tabs, its even easier for me. I tried that mobile shell, and there were too many reduntant applications, and by the time I got what I wanted set up, it was several pages between what I really needed and what I needed to go through. That, and after a couple days, my phone started to really get buggy. I finally gave up and went back to TF.
Now, that was before flashing to an Energy ROM. Things are much better now! Check out PPCGeeks HTC Imagio section, several ROMS there waiting for you!
You know I just saw those this weekend and they look very promising! Especially the MaxManilla on the horizon. I am not sure whether to go with Manilla or Cookies...Any thoughts?
As for the TF3D and texting, I did some googling and found the fix. Sorry, but I can't remember, but I think it was on PPCGeeks. Had to add some manilla reg values and change one other and voila! It works now. Still not sure if I like TF3D better than SPB, but I am giving it a shot. What I do like is that SPB can have multiple weather cities. I don't think that I like the 3D mail reader on either app.
Thanks again for the tips.
Gary
