Remove tab in TouchFLO 3D

anyone know how to remove useless TAB in TouchFlo 3D ?

anyone thanks

i would like to bump this because i am also interested in the topic

The tool in this thread can do exactly that

I tried this tool, and i manage to take the internet tab in TF3D off, but no way to put the "calls" tab... and i didn't manage to put the internet tab back... but perhaps i'm doing something wrong...
But if for sure you want to remove a tab, it worked.

OK! Must try that..thx for the tip charly, didnt now that

Is there any way around the program ... say editing a registry?

Diamond TF3D Config 0.6.7

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=405749

I'm aware of the TF3D tool. For the most part, I'm able to edit my registry manually just as if I were to check and uncheck the options available on the tool. I'm stump as far as "removing" a TF3D tab. I'm a space conscious guy (granted however small the file may be) - I will only resort to downloading a program when I have exhausted all possibilities. I've spent hours going through the registry but still no go. Any help would be great!

from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=423647
- you can edit \windows\26948339_manila (i used total commander to edit)
- the tabs are listed like the calendar example you see there
- just remove the ones you don't want. you can also change the order. just make sure there's no gap between the numbers.

Adding Music..

First off, Yes i did search.
I recently got my Touch Diamond, acctually 5 hours ago.
Now I am struggeling to get music on the device. Been doing it for 3 hours now, but nothing seems to work.
I selected ActiveSync on the touch phone, and then went to windows media player on the PC and synced music. but the device says "no music found".
Exploring the folders i noticed the music did get into the MUSIC folder.
And the application from the disc which was delivered within the box does not want to install at all..
What am I doing wrong? Am I just a stupid retard or does the device have some problem?

well, I didn't bother to use WMP at all. I hate WMP.
So I manually transferred the music to \Internal Storage\Content\Music

Did you try restarting your phone? Did you leave it on the music tab for a while?

I also tried mannually yes. and no it did not work.
Restarting the phone : multiple times and no didnt leave it on the music tab.
Im going to kill this stupid thing I am really getting frustrated by now!

same prob here.. manual says any subfolder of \Internal storage but music tab goessearching for a minute and then displays 'no music'. using Duttys 1.5 ROM.

Guys, first go to WMP and refresh the library from there. Then, HTC's player will see the new library. Also make sure you select \Internal.
Also see my just-posted related bible in the General forum.

Good to know that I am not alone...
A diffrent question: in the "internet" tab it says: open in browser "youtube" "explore windows moble" "HTC" How do I close these..
I dont know if my system is broke or that im a complete retard. anyways If i cant solve this ill sell my phone and get a normal phone instead of pda/smartphone -.-;''
EDIT: NVM, it said open internet browser not open IN. stupid mee..

Where in the "general forum" to find your tips?
How do you people copy all music in \internal?
All mp3 files together or something like:
\internal\bruce springsteen\magic
with all songs from that cd
then
\internal\bruce springsteen\born to run
.....
Thanks

The HTC does not find anything.
This thing will not last any longer if this goes on.. I am very impatient and get verry frustrated and the phone will look like a bashed up diamond soon enough.
EDIT: Now the phone does not find photo's funny, this was supposed to be my iphone killer but it seems that M$ Mobile is a phone killer to me.

It may sound pointless but create a folder on Internal Storage called Music and then put your music in it, do a soft-reset, switch to the Music tab and wait about 5 seconds. You should see the music then.
So it would be Internal Storage\Music\Indestructible (where Indestructible is an album)

When you take the stylus out of its place, there's a little red button inside the hole where the stylus goes- press it in with the tip of the stylus

DAMNIT
Waited 5 seconds, and again no music found. What the **** is wrong with this thing

When you switch to the Music tab, does it say Searching? it takes up to 5-7 seconds sometimes. Also try clicking the Library softkey and see if you can't sort by Artist, Album, etc. What format are your music files in?

Dude, you saved my day and my phone.
It listed my 2 artist 30STM and Disturbed.
Also listed songs i previously deleted the original songs.
Thanks alot! Ill look into how i can get to to work normal later. Now I can finally Blow my arms of at the gym.
( I just needed music so badly @ the gym )

Excellent!
I wouldn't be surprised if it works normally from the Music tab now anyway. The phone has now "seen" your files so it should be fine. Put the attached file in your Indestructible folder incase you don't have it already, that way you'll get the album art in TF3D

Music Playback: skip or pop every few minutes

Although this has been commented on in several threads already, I haven't seen a dedicated thread on the problem so here goes.
With all the media players I have tried so far (HTC’s, TCPMP, Windows Media Player and PocketPlayer), there is a noticeable pop or skip in the music every few minutes.
I have tried several things to try and fix it but to no avail. What's worse is that I now know this happens every five minutes EXACTLY. I end up looking at my watch just to confirm it's the problem every time I hear any glitch!
Things I have tried to cure the problem (all tests performed after a soft reset):
- In PocketPlayer (my player of choice) I have tried virtually every permutation for the buffer and decoder priority settings
- I have stopped all non-essential services and killed almost all the processes I can
- I have disabled TouchFlo 3D with no Today plug-ins running
- Tested in ‘Airplane Mode’
- Ensured no application is set to get updates from the internet automatically such as Weather and RSS feeds
This is really frustrating for me as I opted for the HTC Touch Diamond as an all-in-one device only to discover that MP3 playback is unusable.
NOTE: I am using an adaptor for wired head phones or a connection to my car’s head unit. I do not have Bluetooth headphones for testing. I am using RUU_Diamond_HTC_WWE_1.93.405.1_Radio_Signed_Diamond_52.29.25.12_1.00.25.05_Ship with minimal tweaks applied (mainly cosmetic ones).
If you have similar problems or any suggestions, please let me know!

Been there.. done that. Exactly 5mins it is.
The new OS build (20273) makes the pauses less. The older Build used to be worse! Still waiting for HTC to fix.

What is that build number (20273)? I have not seen an HTC ROM with that build number, can you provide more details?
Thanks!

I can't see why deleting the music and copying it back is going to solve the problem... Unless it's the delete "AudioManager_Eng.vol" step you mean?

Actually Step 3 & 4 can be skip, the main reason to let those not sure or confuse how to manage the folders within the "InternalStorage"
Important is creating "folder.jpg" in our Touch Diamond. (Recognised by TD)
Some music files especially mp3 with built-in Album Arts also give problem.
All the above, based on my few tests & tries . . . .

The music files on my Diamond was transfered to the device together with a folder.jpg for each album. So that can't be the cause. I don't know if my files have build-in album arts, but I doubt that they all have it. So since all the albums on my device have this problem, I doubt that build-in album art has anything to do with this either. Of course I could be wrong...
Did you have this problem before you did this your new way?

Yes. TD will automatically generate "folder.jpg" that's why I do 1 step ahead to create 1.
I delete all my mp3 files from TD InternalStorage(I got backup in my PC) . . . then I create lots of FOLDERS with each Singer names. Copy all my mp3 files to individually to each different Singer FOLDER, create each FOLDER with their individual Singer's image and renamed with "folder.jpg" and place within the FOLDER.
After that rename the "AudioManager_Eng.vol" to "AudioManager_Eng.vol.vol" (because can/t delete), do a soft reset.
Everything go fine.View attachment 106724

OK, maybe you can check you ALBUMS / FOLDERS, do you have hidden file names as "hTC_AM_AlbumArt.jpg" inside? Or samething else?

Thanks for the tips. I wasn't really considering going the custom ROM route just yet but it looks like I need to bite the bullet if it is the only solution to the sound pop/glitch issue. I noticed in the change log that there is mention of a sound fix for Audio Manager ('No more pausing bugs'), I take it this will also apply to other media players? As I only want to use PocketPlayer which, ironically, seems to exhibit this the problem the most, can someone confirm if they have an issue with this player using the SwiftBL 5.6 ROM?

I thing that nothing will happen while somebody report to HTC and do big bubble like with graphic drivers for Kaiser...

can TF3D show albums to browse through?

Hi Guys, I was wondering if it's possible to either order my songs by album, or get the TF3D music tab to show the albums rather than just the songs in alphabetical order?
hope this makes sense, any help would be appreciated.

lol thats got to be 732

I'm assuming your sarcasm was pointing out that this has been posted before? FYI I attempted to search the forums for roughly 30 minutes and found nothing useful (lots about album art, but I figured that out by myself).
any chance I could get a useful response?
EDIT: also, please do not tell me to use the library, I am fully aware of that function, but it is not what I am asking. If it is indeed impossible, please let me know so I can stop wasting my time and yours.

Save some Christmas $$$ Barcode Scanning [App]

Initially accidently posted this in the Diamond forum...
Happy Holidays.
After reading a post here or in another forum I stumbled across a program called BARCORAMA http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=368798
Its a program that lets you scan UPC barcodes with your camera and then goes out to the internet to let you find the lowest price online for that item...already saved me quite a bit...and made shopping feel sortof fun for once...fealt like a spy..LOL
Works Awesome on my touch Pro...strangely seems to work better when I zoom to 2x and take the picture than when im in close

I got the app working great on a touch pro.
Except I changed the default to pop open skyfire for the browser, and also piped it into Google shopping search engine, rather than just google. B/c in shopping it already shows the prices and places to buy.
Neat app! Thanks. Minor suggestion, offer the ability to put a path for the images and / or a way to name it when you shoot the UPC.

What URL did you use to make it use Google Shopping search engine?

open the app, go into settings and hit the right arrow until you see the google address. then replace the word "search" with "products"
EDIT: works well. i zapped every item on my desk at work and it found them all.

LOL...no, sorry for the misunder standing. I was trying to add credability to the other guys post of pointing it to google shop instead of just google. I wanted to just put +1 as in I am also wanting this, but you have to have 10 characters to make a post.

mine is not working everything i scan says no barcode i have the pro and question what is it suppose 2 say for program 2 run

does anybody have an idea of why its not working

Zoom in to 2.0 on the camera and try again.

still not working do i have 2 upgrade the rom 2 use this program

is there a cab file for this? or how do install this to my phone? just use sync and drag and drop it into my program files??

yeah I found Standing further away from the barcode and doing a 2.0 Zoom really helped...I make the barcode fill the screen and make sure its sharply focused before taking the picture...
...In terms of how to install...i created a folder called Shopping in my Windows/Start Menu/Programs folder and dropped the EXE file in there...You will then see the folder in your Windows/Programs area....i put it in its own folder because it saves each barcode where the program is installed and i didnt want them in my programs menu.

Yeahh....I found a new way to kill time and kill my battery...lol
I've run out of things to scan around the house.
I now know the best prices of everything in my work place...lol
I even depressed a few when I showed them better prices......
Walmart thinks I'm a spy...lol....had to turn of the sounds while taking pictures of barcodes....Security was confused too.....
This really is an achievement! Thanks to the creator of Barcorama.....

To change to shopping in google
The above poster is right, just change search, in the http string to product and that's it. Then it shows you a listing of prices and locations, pretty slick.
As for the person not getting it to work, it won't work if you're megapixels is set to 3MP, I dropped mine down to 1MP and that did it for me.

More things to scan
Hey noellenchris, don't forget all your cd's and coffee table books, or IT books....
I even scanned a can of Progresso soup and it found it. Crazy.

Keep your phone upright when you take the picture. I found if I turned the phone sideways and took the picture, it would not find the barcode. Keep the phone straight up and down when you take the pic.

I changed my camera to take a picture on Touch instead of Touch and Press. Right after it autofocuses, it'll take the picture. Getting much better results this way since when I would use Touch and Press, when I would press to take the picture, my hand would move.
