First of all: don't laugh. For quite a while I have been using a HTC Wizard with WM6 and fell in love with the TouchFlo 2D interface, as seen on the Kaiser. This one:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Now I have a Diamond and I just can't get used to the 3D interface. So basically I want the classic WM6 look back, including the old TouchFlo as shown in the above picture.
I already managed to cut down the font size in windows and menus to be WM5/6-like, but would love to have the 2D interface back. Anyone has a clue where to find it (if it even exists)?
ps. I came across this but for some reason it's ugly

Did you ever findd an answer to this - I had my cruise stolen and ended up with this peice of ****t. I am really upset. I liked having an sd card, a faster ppc and all in all better ppc.

Nope, best thing I have come across so far are bad-looking skins.
That's HTC Home. You can download it at http://www.pocketemu.com/download.php?list.8

What skin did you find? I like the dimonds touchflo 3d but I liked the old clock so wanted to change the clock to the one in you pic.

I just started playing with FFF. Very friendly . Even though I have a keyboard on my Kaiser, I'd love to have an FFF-style keyboard for the screen. I know there have been requests to the author of FFF, but I'm wondering if anyone has seen something close to this concept in a keyboard.
Thanks in advance.

HTC Touch Keyboard + Keypad probably the closest. See Latest Cabs thread.

I looked at that. Lots of issues... Maybe a future version.
Thanks for your reply.
Same here, the HTC keyboard/keypad was looking great, but still far from perfectly usable.
So I keep PocketCM as my preferred one :

The keys look too small for my stubby fingers. That's the beauty of FFF; I can use it!
Have you tried TouchPal?
-Bob-
I had a Vodafone branded Universal for a few days, and it had a T9 / FFF ish keyboard plugin. It was awesome but I never did work out what it was.
If we could get that cab file, I think it would satisfy a lot of people's needs.

Go to www.cootek.com. It's free until 8th December and it's probably what you're looking for.
It's free... But very limited... (to QWERTY ie.)
The concept seems interesting, but with no intl support it's a full stop for me.
Of all the SIP's I have tried so far, Cootek's TouchPal in my opinion is the most Impressive and efficient so far. You need a bit of practice though.
In fact over time I find that I am relying less and less on the built in mechanical slide out keyboard of my TyTn II.
Just my opinion
I was looking through different ROM posts and noticed a screen shot of an iPhone-like keyboard. when i googled "iphone windows mobile keyboard" it came up with a different one. Does anyone know which one this one is?

Go to www.vitotechnology.com, and check the the Zoom Board.
Those screen caps are from Dutty's WM6.1 Hybrid ROM. You can find it with the following link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=380991
Cheers.
Thanks for the replies. I already installed PocketCM but that wasn't exactly the one I was looking for although it is a pretty nice one. Could the one in the screenshot possibly be a skin or something for PCM?
Update: I did a little research and that is PCM but it looks like Dutty maybe did some editing of the keyboard.
Although can't see in the screen shot but do give Cootek's TouchPal a try.
Just my personal opinion after trying quite a few such as Pocket CM and Zoomboard I still find the TouchPal the best by far. But again my personal opinion and try it yourself.
the one in the picture is defo PCM keyboard, its the one i have installed.
It has an iphone skin on it called "iphone 12".
try searching for that.
hope this helps!

I wud suggest you do a soft reset to see if it cums back to normal if not then you will have to do a hard reset...
Just hijacking slightly but still on topic sort of...
The old style home will work on the Diamond then? Just got mine yesterday and although I like touchflo have to admit I want to use the old home until these memory issues are worked out. My touchflo-less today screen looks really bland lol..
Thx
Are those plug ins VGA compatible? It looks like they are QVGA so they are displaying at a smaller resolution.
Htc Home Screen Plugin
Thanks for all the help guys i finally got it to work by installin the 6tab kaiser version, then adding the dll file.......BUT is there any way to just make it bigger. Ideally i would prefer if it was the same size as the one on most of the windows 6 phones, i.e the touch, kaiser etc, it looks good but it's just a bit to small in proportion to the rest of the screen.
The is because you are using QVGA images which are smaller than VGA ones. You will need to use a HTC Home plug in from a Universal or other VGA PPC
This one looks OK to use See thread

Hi,
I saw the thread reported but is a bit confused here you can put the right package to get the result you have shown in your attachment?
Thank you.
Hi Guys,
Ever since I've seen the new(?) HTC Home on the new Touch HD, I thought to myself I've gotta have it!
Is there somewhere I can grab it? I've searched the forums for HTC Home, but I don't know the version number, so I don't really know which version to look for.
In case you guys don't know what I mean, here's the piccie from Engadget, where I first saw it: -

muchas gracias guys.... I don't think I Would have known about that until you guys told me .
What does the "2d" part of the name mean? I originally thought it was a 2 dimensional version of touch flo!

There is a TouchFlo 3D on the Diamond and Rapheal, but, seen as though HTC "forgot" the 3D drivers for the Kaiser, we have to use the one with 2D rendering.

ah, yes...
Guess it might be time to trade up soon then, eh? I'll be trying out the new TF2D a bit later...

Just installed it, and boy is it nice
Just reading through the thread to try and get programs and contacts tab working now...
Well i just saw a touch today so i thought well thats cool i miss the old htc home plugin with the Cube thing. and i was hoping that someone could link some cabs from the Tilt's forums for me. I know they're there so any way thanks for the help =]
Ok well after looking i realized i need to reword this again (this may turn into a request for an app) But i found http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=311225 and got the home plug in but it is really small like super small im uploading an image of it for a better idea of what im talking about.

Your Fuze is VGA, those files are for qvga, they won't work. You would have to get VGA files.
.... ok well where would i get those files?
Take a look in the Athena part of XDA Developers! There's a RealVGA CAB for HTC Home and may be for the Cube?
hey ryan00793:
A couple of months ago i found a "vga" htc home and it worked better than the one you have but still only occupies only 1/4 of the screen. It is too small to work without the stylus
Too bad because i like this plugin.

Ah sorry, mixed it up the Athena with the Universal!
Here you go for HTC Home: HTC Hone VGA
An here's the thread were I found it: WM6 add-on cabs - Teixeirabmb Collection (Last update 21th August)
And here's the original in Athena's section: Cab for the big htc home (x7510)
