With the dawn of manila over 6.5, I'd like to request a cab to make these two beautiful interfaces separate panels. I purchased my Xperia because of the slick hardware and styling, as well as the cool concept of panels.
I know you can just check and uncheck some boxes, but I think it would be slick (as do many others) if we could put them as panels (preferably on the new R3 panel manager). If anyone has anything brewing, I'd be more than happy to test.
Someone knows how to make a panel could easily convert touchflo detacher into panels imo, I was gonna try working on it but school has caught up with me
Is it soo dif. 2 make the existing panel cab for the TF3d beta 2 cab work with the beta 3?
Would it be possible to clone the today screen and unlock it as a panel, with independant settings etc, then tick the different boxes for titanium and touchflo on the different main today? I'm not familiar with the xperia sdk etc and have never made a cab. I thinks fards said he was looking at it.
Could anyone familiar with the touchflo detatcher say how its done? And whether it can be adapted for winmo6.5?
Anyone any smart ideas? Still some really nice new manila/titanium roms coming out. Is anyone working on anything?
How about try to have a bounty on the person who can develop this???
try contacting the author of the original touchflo panel
i tired to enable manila v1 as panel in wm6.1. i no its not the same but here is my experience in case someone wants to try and devolp a panel for the new manillla....
1.new start menu must be on.
2. turning off manila from do and then loading touchflo panel leaves us with a white screen with loading....
3. if u press start at this point. the manila start menu loads and after u close the start menu......you will find that manilla in panel started......not much problem after that and everything runs fine
NOW:
i havnt tried this in wm6.5 coz that would probably require titanium start to be off.....which i dont want.
but the point is: manilla is loaded all we need to do is trigger it to show up....
just do it the old fashion way. flash a 6.5 rom, install tf3d beta 2, install the panel. switch back and forth. done

That's promising, but it would be better as a panel. Is there a way to have a second today panel which has separate tick boxes? Anyone know who was the author of tf3d panel?
ja thts a good Question...
coz i just cant get it tht its soo hard 2 change the panel...
\from beta2 to beta3 atleast? but looks like I"m wrong..

Tried at the weekend - it's easy to make a html switcher panel but this is no easier than just ticking what you want in today settings. And it's easy enough to make a show manila panel using Touchflo detacher, which then takes you to Manila home automatically, but the html panel is still truly a blank white screen not TFlo so it's not functional as it should be.
And I couldn't figure out a way that the standard today would always show Titanium. It would have to use the panel button using mortscript to close Manila, then load panel manager in order for it to work. It would be usable (just) but not satisfactory enough for me to spend time making it.
ya I tried using a simple html program launcher panel and found that although it loads up and closes the manilla program it doesn't redirect you back to the home screen after its done so you can view it, I've been looking through c++ panel documentation trying to understand how panels work.
Would Titanium be lighter detached...? I'm not really sure how to approach it from a programming perspective, but it would be amazing. The second today does work REALLY well, but I would LOVE to see it as a panel.
Quick update: The second today prog does not work! Anyone looking into this?

And neither does mToday. So have to be using TFDetacher to toggle between default Windows and TF3D.
Shame...anyone know who wrote TFDet or can write for it??? I'm desparate
Hello,
I´m using Valkyrie V3.0 Firestorm with normal Touchflo (no Leo), but I recognize this problem on many other ROMs, so I decided to make an own thread:
activating another panel (for example mediapanel and start playing a title)
=>pressing the red key for locking the screen
=>unlocking the screen
=>the panel isn`t visibile (but still work in the background) and I see touchflo
=>activating the panelmanager, it slides out the panel (so that the panel should be visible)
Is there a solution for this? That I can activate all panels and they are still active, working and VISIBLE after keylocking?
Yes, it's an incompatibility between panels and tf3d. the best solution I have found is to use the excellent WkTask, which enables you to "minimize" manila and see whatever panel you have running behind.
I guess any task manager that allows you to switch to manila (most of them hide it) would do the same job, but I like WkTask

ahh thank you very much!
i can`t use wktask because in wm6.5 23028 are the close buttons etc on the bottom left side and not on the top right side...but i will search another program
I have the rom: touch x 10.9 (great rom!)
but i want to have htc sense as a panel. so i dont have to uncheck and check the htc sense today plugin.
i tried the touch flo as panel installer but that didnt work (hard reset)
regards ben
there is no way. because it attached with the rom. it can be a panel when you use the original rom and then install the tl3d cab + tl3d panel
hummm... what happens when you press the Xpanel button??
i think he means seperate from the orginal today panel, altercode!
and there is no longer a away i'm afraid, it was possible with much older versions of manilla, but not any more
You can use panels, but Sense keeps trundling along in the background, using up resources. The other problem is sometimes, e.g. when coming out of standby, sense will pop up in front of your panel and will never go away.
If you use quickmenu, you can use that toggle between sense and some other panels, such as spb mobile shell
Or you can use wktask which allows you to "minimize" sense. It does not work well with 6.5.x though, and is not to everyone's taste.
Or you can try tfdetacher, tho I have not tried that for a while.
I expect that it IS possible to make a panel that can launch sense, though I have no idea how. and plus sense does take a while to launch, which would become more evident if it were being continually launched and killed.
There is guy on pccgeeks that made app which switch sense to mobile shell with tap of shortcut. Im sure there is way to make something like that for sense and panels too.

At the moment it runs on top of the today screen, and the soft keys actually overlap SPB 3.5.1..
so is there a way to run SPB as a panel?
I believe you can use a program called panelizer with a wallpaper and link the shortcut. There was a thread for it try searching.
It turned out that the panelizer is quite difficult to use. But if you can make a working version, please share. Im interested too.

is that even possible?
I'm running Mobile Shell 3.5.3 on my Kaiser with Shifu V20 ROM. On my last Abusalza ROM I had no problems with the backlight widget but for some reason this no longer works correctly. Sometimes the widget button itself becomes invisible on my SPM home screen and when I manually adjust the backlight in Settings the icon will magically reappear. When I tap it and select a different lighting level this has no effect on the device. Has anyone else experienced this?
Yeah I had the same problem, but didn't find any solution though
i'm using SPB MS 3.5.3 on stylez 4 rom and everything is ok with backlight button. btw SPB Mobile Shell RULEZ
