Almost like S2U2....?

Hi all,
Just a quick question. I tried S2U2, and I like the principle, but I don't like the slide thing as I don't like the smudges it causes on the screen. That's why I am not a fan of Touchflo etc etc etc
Is there a similar programme that you can just touch/tap the screen once (instead of sliding finger all across the screen) or use the D-Pad?
What interests me is the ability of the programe to use animated gifs, clock etc.
Many thanks in advance.
Did I search? hmmmmm.......

Go to the S2u2 settings and turn the D-pad ON and then you can use the D-pad.

You might want to have a look to Sunscape too, you can unlock the screen by finger or D-PAD, the mechnism is basically the same but the idea behind is really cool.

Thank you!!! I am going to try it out. I found that S2U2 crashes my Homescreen (Batterystatus) programme so I had to uninstall unfortunately as I like Homescreen ++.

Customize HTC Home?

Is there a way to customize HTC Home? Like, can I change the look of it at all? Also, is there a way to make it finger scrollable, and also D-Pad scrollable? I know in some of the ROMs it's somewhat D-pad scrollable, but it seems to never work right.
I'd like to lower HTC Home to near the bottom of the screen (like Manilla) and make it more scrollable (like Manilla). I'd also like to customize the graphics, and possible add/remove icons.
Is there any way to do any of this? I know people are putting a ton of time into customizeng Manilla, but I would rather use HTC Home because of the whole landscape support thing.

Try Advance Config
Go here,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=470370
Scroll down to post #2 then download System Tools Cabs
It's a Zip file with all the system tools, and Advance Configuration is in there.
Once you install AC, run it, scroll to HTC home and unlock its position. This will enable it to scroll though, so if you have too many things on the home screen, the scroll bar will be on top of your htc home, make it looks ugly ~ but if you don't mind then try it out

finger scrollable?!!! You can use the Dpad, just press up or down untill one of the tap icon was selected, then press left or right to flip trough those taps... HTC Home is design to be light and fast ~ if you want all the complex M2D functions might as well just use M2D ~ sacrifice the buggy landscape mode.

-post removed- rant was here before(might come back) but im not sure what you mean. Do you mean by customizing HTC home changing the clock, tabs, etc.?

Well I was initially trying to make HTC Home look nicer- like M2D, and make it finger scrollable like M2D. I have since installed SPB Mobile Shell, and I no longer care about HTC Home.
I was just fed up with M2D and it's sluggish, buggy, no landscape, performance. M2D is nice to look at, and it is finger friendly as well. So I wanted to combine its looks, and its finger friendly operation, with the snappy performance and stability of HTC Home.
SPB Mobile Shell seems to do all of that, and plenty more...

well I found this http://www.touch-commander.com/

Looks retty nice. Similar to SPB Mobile Shell:

Looks to be a little cheaper than Mobile Shell.

Left Handed People Rom

I'm one of the 10% of left handed people in the world and was wondering if anybody had managed to make a rom for kaiser for us lefties if not then whats the best solution as the scroll bar on the right hand right means my hand is over the screen so i cant see while i have to scroll hope someone can shed some light on this

Try looking around here, although I don't remember seeing any left-handed ROMs there. As for the scroll bar, there was a thread about that in the Off-Topic forum a while ago, and although many agreed that it would be nice to do, nobody had the slightest idea how one would do so.
You might want to try a WM6.5 ROM, as they have excellent finger scrolling (so long as you disable Touchflo scrolling in Kaisertweak).
Dave

we should make a seperate lefties forum lol
I agree, for me, WM6.5 overall works great. Contact, home screen, app launcher scrolling were all seamless. and the old control panel type stuff is gone so you get to use the honeycomb to browse through the settings options.
for me it's way better than trying to use a tiny scroll bar no matter what side it's on.

Multifinger swipes in ROM?

Hello! Maybe its a launcher pro / TW / ADW thing, but I think it would be useful to have multitouch swipes in the launcher. For instance:
1 finger swipe slides 1 screen as usual
2 fingers swipes slides 2 screens (i.e. quicker access to 2 more screens)
3 finger swipes -> go to last screen on right or left respectively
Similar philosophy could apply to vertical swipes - e.g. 2 finger vertical swipe could be a quick "clear" of the notification bar.
Customizable swipes would also be cool: e.g. 3 finger vertical upwards = direct sms to specific number.
What do you think? Maybe we should sent requests / emails to the respective developers...

Brilliant idea,
it is a shame to have a multitouch screen and only use it on gallery and slice it.

This should be a new standard in launchers ;D

You mean like in the screen I attached?
This is the knuckle gesture feature. There are gestures for taking screenshots, split view and others for use with your finger knuckles.
If you have it while you're scrolling your fingers are so hard that the screen thinks it's a knuckle. Maybe you have long finger nails or scarf-skin?
You can disable this under ‘Settings’ > ‘Smart assistance’ > ‘Motion control’.
