TouchFLO 3D Theme Customizer

Now that we're seeing different colors and designs for the TouchFLO 3D Home screen today plug-in on different versions of the Touch Diamond, if anyone is planning on making a theme customizer that we can use to change these at will...
Please make it extensible enough so that other future and existing applications can be added and changed as well.

AFAIK, there are no ROMs for the branded devices available... When those become available, it'll be far easier to allow for skinning.

How about a project to adapt the remaining Windows Mobile "design look" into the Touchflo3D GUI? Of course tweaking performance at the same time to compensate for it as much as possible.

I was wondering whether to do that... These forums seem to be some of the cleanest (device wise) so keep up the moderating
If and when someone gets there hands on an operator branded device (or an operator ROM), I'll try and work out how the customization takes place...

Agreed.
I would love it if there was something extensible like Schap's Advanced Config, where anyone could customize an XML file or something and have the application load Skin/Theme options (like HTC Home Customizer does) for other applications (including TouchFLO 3D).
So like a hybrid between HTC Home Customizer which will load the proper image files/etc. to the proper places based on what you choose... and the Advanced Config program where you can add custom options by editing an XML file.
Doesn't that sound like a great tool for changing theme/skins for all of these applications?

I would LOVE to reorder the TouchFLO 3D Tabs at least!!!

I would love to change the color of my TF3D theme from o2 but keeping my german version!
When I recieve my XDA I can provide you with the included ROM but the delivery date is delayed.

I'm getting a T-Mob compact IV, dumping the ROM (assuming it's not already done by someone else by then) is near the top of my to-do list.
Anyone who's seen T-Mob's version of TF3D will understand my wish help the progress of a theme customiser!!!
2+ more weeks to go... :-(

Does it all mean that maybe one day it will be possible to add some other items to the TF3D??
I am desperately looking for an application like PocketZenPhone to switch the profiles with one touch!!! I didn't start using my diamond yet only because of this!!! I have to change profiles very often (bluetooth on/off, vibrating with sound and without sound, etc...) and it is really impossible everytime to enter menus!!!
Can someone help me.... please!?!

Try AEBPlus - it maps your hard ware buttons, I have just one set to turn on wi-fi, and the same button on double pressing to turn on Bluetooth, turn off the same way....

Thanks a lot... I'm going to try if it helps!
It would be better to have 4 or 5 icons like in PZP with different profiles, but also this can help.
Are you sure it works with WM6.1?? Because it is not in the list of compatible devices.
Thanks again!
Urosh

I tried to install AEBPlus but it was unsuccessful...
???
Do someone know why?
Thnx

TouchFLO 3D & other elements
How can I add other elements to the home screen using TouchFLO 3D? Can it be customized somehow?
I want to add todo list just like when not using TouchFLO 3D where it shows remaining tasks to fulfill??

Hi,
I did get an O2 ignito on Tuesday.
I ordered it on Saturday and PMed two of the better known cooks if they wanted a dump (sorry and no names) but not had a reply. They are obviuosly busy.
I did point out though that I had not dumped before and did not have anywhere to upload it to. I did find some threads to do it and it seemed complex.
I have now put on a rom from this forum and am very happy with it. Will donate.
The o2 rom was 1.92.2xx.

Large clock on front screen

Hello all,
Have just got my O2 XDA Stellar
On the forums I see that there is a large digital clock displayed.
Does O2 bypass this feature as it looks really good.
Looking forward to reading more on these forums
Thanks Helmetz

by searching you can download a large digital clock or what most users have is htc home plugin which has the large clock in it. Search for htc home plug for kaiser, you will find it fairly easy.

if u just want the clock without all the extra stuff in the htc home then you can search for 'pocket digital clock.'

My O2 phone had it, it might just need ticking in the today screen ?

if u think it has it, then go into settings, personal, today, items, and ticking the plugin.

Which tweak App to use ?

OK.
Been frustrated as hell with the performance of my Diamond, but I REALLY REALLY want it to behave fluidly and as HTC market to us all... I don't want to hand it back and go for an N82 (although I love the camera on this). I WANT to keep using my Diamond as I do believe in it... even after my little rant in the "is your Diamond perfect" thread ;-)
So... and I hope this question will help others too.
I need to know - If I install Diamond TF3D Config and AC 2.1 with Boinger66's mods, and the latest on the block, Diamond Teak all on the same device.
And I asking for trouble ?
Or will common settings (registry changes) to improve performance, enhance power management etc across all these brilliant applications conflict with one another ? Or will they play nice and just change the same registry settings ?
cheers.
Or... is there one that will be the best ? I am not a WM expert and all this is a tad intimidating
Are the Advised settings marked in AC 2.1 with Boinger66's ones that the dev advises, the community has advised or Microsoft advise ?
i.e Do we happily set everything that we want to change to advised and following a soft reset, enjoy Diamond bliss ???
Please... I know I could read countless pages of threads but a clear concise answer to the above would help me and many others out along the way.
cheers

They should work all together...
My app is just reading and writing to the registry and not saving the selected tweaks anywhere else, so it makes no trouble with other tweaking tools, if they do it the same way.

It works together on my original Dutch rom...
At the moment I am using the Diamond TF3D config 0.6 tool from sushilange..
Here i can fill my own tweak list.. i like to take control

@sushi... thanks for that.
@ben®nie... cool. Will add AC2.1 and B66's tweaks back to my recently hard reset Diamond.
Currently with just sushi's app... all seems to be flowing along nicely
Oh... and anyone know the answer to the 'advised' setting question ? Power management ones seem most app with the small battery we all have ;-)

Managing different profiles under TF3D

Hi everybody,
since one week, I'm the proud owner of a the great HTC Touch Pro.
In the meanwhile I tried nearly every day new software, new themes, new wallpapers and so on, to customize the HTC TP according to my needs.
After I tried various user-interfaces, I came always back to the Touch Flo 3D interface... it's the best for me (according to usability and design), even if there are 2 issues that are still frustrating since I were not able to solve them or find a proper workaround:
1. The home-screen shows only the next appointment and is not customizable to show more than 1 appointment at the same time - even if I scroll down (the clock is getting smaller), there's only 1 appointment shown.
This behaviour is not very satisfying - especially since I'm using my phone mostly for the business.
2. The is my biggest problem: I have a tool called "profiles" - with this tool, you can manage and create different profiles and you can also create a schedule that can switch profiles automatically (I was using this tool already on my old device with windows mobile 5 and it worked great). Especially the schedule-functionallity was very great and I'm looking for a solution that is also working under Touch Flo 3D.
As far as I noticed, profiles is not working with touch flo 3D - the scheduled tasks are not applying and the activation of a profile within the program is not working - I think this tool is only working if you install the plugin on the home screen (of the windows mobile interface).
Since I have no "home screen" in Touch Flo 3D, the tool is not usable for me.
Does anyone here have a comparable profile-tool which works under Touch Flo 3D (with the scheduling option)?
Thank you in advance and sorry for my bad english...

Hey!
As for profile switcher.
I have spent whole day searching i have try almost every single of them most are not free and they are as today plug-in so it sux because if you use TF3D you can't use anyother plugin unless you install Second today. So angry as hell i have pointless shuffle through XDA and...
MIRACLE
i found G-Profile! GREAT FREEWARE!
it can switch profiles according to many rules such as time, schedule, appointment etc. etc. and it have plenty of options.
i also found Phoneweaver but eventually because it's not free i didn't test it ( Had enough of payed software after PhoneAlarm and SPB Phone suite which are only today's plugins... )

WOW !!!!
G-Profile works fantastic!!!
Thank you very much!!!
Now, I just have to find out if there is any possibility to execute the profile-changer from the TF3D Home-Screen (without using one of the soft-keys for that)... that would be the best solution for me!... for example: If I touch on the clock, the profile-changer opens... or something comparable...
I try to find out if there is any possibility and will let you know if somebody is also interested...

I doubt it. Only soft/hard key remaping or program launcher tab.

ageye can do no wrong! Everything made by ageye is awesome. Try out g-light as well to tweak your backlight. I just tried this last night, and it is pretty cool. g-alarm is also a must have.

You could try SSMaPa http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=407777
a manila patcher with which you can reassign other programs to manila programs - also to the clock on the home screen.
I use it for iContact and it works great

Yup ageye soft is great.

G-Profile is great!
Only downside for me: it really, really drains my battery...

That`s absolutely true!
My HTCTP never survived the whole night until the next morning!
Maybe you should also try to reduce the polling intervall that should reduce the battery consumption...
Now, I have only the QuickSwitch enabled and implemented it directly "behind" the clock on Manila 3D (with SSMaPa - see link above) - that means: When I click on the clock an the startpage, the quickswitch window opens and I can directly select my profile!
G-Profile + SSMaPa = The unbeatable solution for windows mobile !

Some questions about HTC diamond's interface

Hi everyone, this is my first post but I'm using this site as a infinite source of information since I bought my htc diamond.
I have 2 little questions anyway:
Is there a way to install a skine which makes the start menu of windows like the windoes 6.5's 1? That dropdown bar is very ugly in my hopinion.
I tried home 2 of pointui and I've been astonished of his rapidity and precision, it was much better than touchflo. Contacts and pages slide 100 times better.
Is there any way to improve sliding of pages and lists like in that UI? At least I know it is possible!
Thanks

You could try some other UI's like SPB Mobile Shell or Point UI like you mentioned and see if those work for you. As far as the Honeycomb start menu of 6.5, I don't know if there is a way to alter the 6.1 start menu to look like that. You'll probably have to unlock and flash a 6.5 rom for that.
Try some of the tweaks posted in the Diamond Tweaks Sticky to improve scrolling. They do work!

Thanks for the advices.
I Solved my problem by installing more efficent apps like iContact and Thumbcalendar and by making them default!
If I can ask an other question, I have the brand of my operator instead of Opera logo in browser section of touchflo, is there any way to remove it?

Are you referring to the large icon that shows when you click the internet tab? It's usually a Globe. Or are you talking about the splash screen when Opera starts?
