OK, forgive me if this has been covered elsewhere -- the search term "all programs" doesn't really get much in the way of specific responses, so someone might've covered this before, but I've not been able to find it.
The "All Programs" -> "Launch Program" link on the program tab of Touchflo 3D is, to my mind, one of the real winners of the whole application. It's got fantastic touch response, it's good looking, and all the apps (including whatever newly installed thing I'm playing with) are nicely displayed and finger friendly.
What I'd like is to be able to direct link to it -- for instance, have the 'programs' button on TF3D home instead link to 'All Programs'... or even replace the 'programs' in my start menu with 'All Programs'...
...but I don't know how it works, and I sorta guess the function is rolled into TF3D, and can't be pulled out. Anyone know for certain?
Thanks!
i'm bumping this cause i need to know aswell.
I need the answer too; please, any help ???
Anyone??????
That would be perfect! But sorry, I got nothing
just a bump for someone more clever
maybe this is of some help??

Hi Ive gone through the threads, and found some stuff here and there, but nothign that really explained this.
One thing I do like about the Sprint Touch, and Iphone is how you can scroll w/ your finger having you avoid to always use the sylus.
What programs are out there that will give us this.
I read tha PocketCM lets you scroll through contact
I also saw a post of a zip file Scrolling_by_ASerg.zip.
Do both of these program perform this function?
Any help would be appreciated
I know that I would donate $10 to someone who can take the time to figure this out. It has to be possible to add a Tasks tab to the TF3D interface.
I don't want to have to switch to second today or anything like that - fully integrated! A clean and simple list of tasks maybe with an "X" delete button on the right side of each task.
I know people say it's impossible, but with some time I'm sure it can be done.
If you would like this too and would be willing to donate some - just leave a post saying so - maybe someone will be enticed to collect such a prize enough to figure it out!
If you do figure it out and post a reply - you're my hero and please set up a thread for donations!
edit: By tasks I mean things you have to do in real life - NOT a list of running programs - linked in to the 'Tasks' program that's a part of outlook...
yeah, someone help!!! it a obviously new tab, everyone need that!
Manila Control?
I know it's not the answer you're looking for but have you taken a look at Manila Control?
It allows you to use your regular today screen (with plugins). It's somewhat like Second Today however I always had problems with it running. I've been using this since its release and haven't had any trouble whatsoever.
Manila Control
It's something for now until the XDA gurus can figure out a way to create a tasks tab.
count me in for a donation
I'll be willing to contribute to a tasks tab!
I'll donate too, 10-20 dollar if you can make something like alt-tab in windows for the touch pro, maybe use the capacitive touch(multitouch) for the alt tab, and when i slide my finger across that, i can select the program.

I'm not sure I understand but a programs tab is already out there (like when you go into the original programs tab and hit the all programs button)
I'll donate 10$ as well

What I want is the ability to quickly switch between all the program I have running. If i'm using opera and have say, media player running in the background, right now, I have to go to "Home", than use the HTC Task Manager to switch to media player.
If there is an easier way, that'll be great, but I have been doing it that way all this time.
Hahahaha... I cancel my donation - I was thinking about "tasks" as "things to do", not "running programms"
Ok - let me clear things up since I started the thing
I want a task tab as in 'things to do'
Like linked to the 'Tasks' program
You kno - that program that's a part of outlook.
NOT something to show running programs!
To me that just sounds excessive...

try "task facade"
I have a fuze, so I set the ptt button, but you can set the long-send key as it, and it'll do a x1 style overview of windows
I have a question about the tad too, I've seen nice interfaces with a calendar tab, for whatever reason my ATT Fuze didn't come with a calendar tab, you can click calendar from the home page but it brings up the default calendar instead of the pretty calendar I've seen in other screen shots, is there maybe a cab out there to install but he calendar tab to my stock Fuze TF3D?
Thanks!!
Heres a screenshot of what I'm missing (note mines not a black theme its the default ATT Fuze gray theme)

$10*
Put me down for $10 provided that it is a tab, not a SecondToday kind of thing, and that the task display is a la TodayAdenda not just the original MS today tasks plug in.
Weird that this hasn't been done already considering how many people want it as, though I am not a programmer, it doesn't seem like it is that complicated a modification given some of the other things XDA folk have produced.
bump...............
OK, since it's for the "things to do" tab, I'll pay 10 bucks for it eventually
This is my most awaited feature. Not having easy access to tasks is a huge inconvenience. I do not understand why this was not a default tab...
Has there been a solution to this problem yet?
no... Just wishful thinking I guess...
$100 anyone???? (sarcasm btw)
I am pretty sure you cant do this from xml editing alone. I think you would need the source code for tf3d. I could add the function in the source code and then edit xml. Does any one have tf3d reversed engineered or is the source code released?
Anybody know if there is a cab or reg tweak I can apply to disable zooming in messaging when I hit the scroll wheel? I keep doing it by accident and it's really getting on my nerves.
Thanks!
Edit: Solved, see post #12 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=4594396&postcount=12
I have this problem as well...really sucks.
Someone help? lol
haha, yah same here.
it gets annoying after a while...
I too would like a cab for that.
yeah i'm game for a solution...
maybe a quick reg hack or something. sometimes it goes haywire and i can't fix it unless i soft-reset.
omg this is driving me crazy!
is there a known fix for this f** functionality??
in for 1 too
i honestly don't see how this hasn't been addressed before?
I'm not sure if there is a better solution yet, but for now I have simply disabled SmartTouch entirely.
Grab a copy of FdcSoft TaskMgr, go to the Services tab and find the SmartTouch(SMT0) entry. Tap and hold, select Stop, then Set Manual, then Disable.
I don't use the scroll or zoom functionality for anything at all so this works for me. I found this info here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=462662
i dont think you would want to kill smarttouch all together. maybe just find and delete the registry entry for text messages. i think it is hklm\sofware\htc\smarttouch\outlook email. i dunno if thats really it but who knows.

No, from what I can tell, it doesn't. I'm not going to test though because I finally did find a good solution.
After digging around the registry for a couple hours to no avail, I decided to start playing with programs that use SmartTouch. Lucky me I found one that disables zooming in SMS, is customizable, and doesn't mess up any other zooming functionality (ie: Opera). Yay!
My thanks to demosten for creating SensorScroll which can be found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=466377
Just install and soft reset. I had to play around with turning the service on/off (can be done from the start menu shortcut) and testing the zoom in SMS until I had the right size and zoom was disabled.
Hope this works for you!
Hi All,
Just updated my Touch Diamond 2 to TOM's new WM 6.5 ROM. I'm happy with everything, but the new start menu is a little awkward. Its very small, and it shows everything. I liked HTC's original TouchFlo 'Programs' tab, as this allows me to add shortcuts to the apps I use most, and hide the remaining ones in the "All Programs" soft key.
However, I don't know how to change it so when I click the Start Menu (or the hardware button) it opens the Programs screen. I'm sure its a registry setting, but I don't know which one exactly.
Any help would be appreciated.
I dunno whether this will be the one for you, but it's worth taking a look at:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\EnlargeMenu]
"EnableManilaStartMenu"=dword:00000001

Thanks, but this doesn't seem to work. Even a reset doesn't change the start menu behaviour.
Can anyone else help?
hard reset?
as the title ...
How about this one:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\Manila]
"EnableStartMenu"=dword:00000001
(perhaps in conjuction with the other one)
Is there a way to remap left hardware button to TouchFLO 3D home tab? I had a Diamond, was used to home button, and I want the XPeria left button to have the same behaviour.
It was hard for me to find that too, but then I realized that I can go to home tab by pressing the hang up button.
Start -> Settings -> Personal -> Buttons and map hw button of choice to "today".
Dont get me wrong, but was it really THAT difficult to just try and look for it by yourself on your phone?? It's not some fancy registry tweak..just a plain simple wm option as old as the world. Sometimes i wonder how many people buy a certain device "because it looks so cool" or "omg that ad is awesome!" and have actually NO IDEA of what's inside what they are buying...hope you don't fall within this category.

MacCarron, if you think I'm such a newbie and don't know what I'm doing, you are so wrong.
Wanna try something? Do what you said to me, map left button to "today". Now, in TouchFLO 3D, go to another tab, Internet, for example. Now press the left button, which you did happen to map to "today" (at least I hope so). What happens now? NOTHING!! In fact, that "today" is WM today. TouchFLO 3D is a plugin, so you can't assign home tab to left button.
Assign "today" to left button works different than Diamond's home button, which in fact was assigned to TouchFLO 3D home tab.
Anyway, thanks for (not) helping.
M.Ozturk, thanks, I realized that, I was looking for a way to map left or right hardware buttons.

Mine works just fine pal..whenever,wherever i am, it takes me back to today. (should i provide a video proving it? lol.) In fact i've been using the hw keys mapped in this manner for a year, and it always works. Question your actions instead of calling someone a smartass privately and publicly. Or did you think i had made up those instructions i gave you without ever applying them, either right before giving them to you or in the past? Sad. This said, i'm out, "since you are so smart" figure what's wrong with your (i'd say rom) by yourself.

Yeah, maybe it's a ROM matter (I've been playing around with two or three, since it's been 2 days I have the Xperia). But if it's a ROM matter, it's not as easy as you described initially, right?
What just pissed me off is that you assumed that I haven't searched, or tried the simple way you have told me.
Just read what you wrote:

Do you really think I'm that kind of person? If you think, yeah I can think that you are a smartass too, right?
Wouldn't it be easier if you just tell me "maybe it's a ROM problem", Mr. Xperia-expert-who-knows-everything-and-others-don't??
I also used to have touch diamond, and would love to have this behaviour as well. I use Touch X 10.1 and mapping to "today" just takes you to TF3d, doesn't take you to home screen

I apologize for taking you for a newbie without the ability to learn and search, but lately xda has been drowning in stupid questions. Since i figured out the issue by myself long ago and it was really easy i assumed you hadn't even tried, like many people around here ("guys how do i flash a rom?"). Sorry. Btw i said i hoped you did not fall within the category..If it's a ROM matter it gets way more complicated and possibly unfixable without knowing what the chef cooked in. What ROM are you using? Since i got my x1 i tried NRGZ, Itje, Smaberg, Rota and Agent and hw buttons assignment has always worked..
Ok, apologies accepted.
I'm trying now Touch X 10.8.2 Legendary, and cannot map hardware buttons like that. I'll go back to Valkyrie v4.2 Firestorm and see what happens.
I suspect that buttons functionality depends on Manila build version.
shortcut to home page
Create a shortcut to:
Code:
\Windows\manila.exe --switchtopage Manila://home.page
Place this shortcut into \Windows\Start Menu\Programs and assign it to the needed button.
I use touch-it rom and when I am, for exemple, on weather tab, the hang up button takes me back to home tab
