i was wondering if anyone could make a quicknote widget similar to this one
http://oninteraction.blogspot.com/2009/03/our-first-widget-quicknote.html
i would use that, except you need ahome, and i dont really like home alternatives. especially not ahome lol. it should work with the stock home because it looks like the google search widget(in the way it works). except with this you just type and boom its a note saved on the screen. i would make this myself but i dont know how. if someone would teach me i'd do it and put it on the market for free thanks if anyone makes it!
anybody help?
You could get the sticky note widget.
i tried it but its not "quick" enough lol. i like to just immediately put the info in. especially because sometimes when i tihnk of stuff i dont really have time to write it down, so if i had this i can quickly put it in and done. plus i just dont like how the sticky note widget looks lol
that's an ahome widget.. just buy it or dl the lite version
did you even read? AHOME SUCKS. imo. i only want the widget.

Hopefully this isnt a silly question....
Im digging the new HTC home plugin, but it takes up SOO much screen real estate....
Ideally I just want to get rid of ALL of the tabs except the home tab...I want to get rid of the section of the plugin that has all of the different tabs. I want the clock and the notification portion...but even if I remove all of the tabe except the home one, there is still a section listing the home tab...I want to free up that real estate...
Any thoughts?
I know...kind of hard to explain....

At this moment? Not possible!
I know people are looking into it, but it's not possible yet. Maybe it will come available.
I just want the damn clock to be not quite so large

1. buy it - that will get rid of the nag screen plus give you one of the best contact managers out there (i've tried loads and found it's the best for me)
2. Search the kaiser section of the forums for cube ( I tried vista cube that was pretty good)
3. Something like SPB keyboard

First of all welcome!
I've got no clue about the friend finder program, but if you do a search you can probably find info about it and how to install a cube. Search, search, search!
The keyboard that I use is called touchpal you can kind info about it here: http://www.cootek.com/
Hope that helps.

I'd like to check this out. Would you post a link to the product page?
Is it possible to customize HTC home that comes with WM6.1 for the Tilt upgrade that was just released? I have it installed and I like it, for the most part. However, I would really like to change the favorite contacts and the items in the launcher. However, when I hold my stylus on one of the contacts I don't want to see, it just starts dialing.
Is there a manual for the new software that I missed somewhere?

don't hold your stylus on one of the programs/contact you don't want to see, just click the last program/contact in the section, which should be an X
And this is why I need to play more than I did... Are there any other tweaks for the HTC Home? personally, I'm not liking the amount of real estate it takes on the screen... 2/3 of it in portrait and all but 1-2 lines in landscape is a little much.
I like the functionality of it, but would really like to find ways to make it look better/different if that is possible.

Nope. Its pretty much fixed size. You can get emunutz's HTC Home Customiser to chage the clock font, icons etc. But as for size... its fixed. The only way is to recreate something similar using apps/plugins like batterystatus
Any idea how to remove the "Weather" tab? I never use it and want to get rid of it.

Yerp, Use emunutz HTC home customiser and take it off the active tabs list.
I decided to disable it and use ilauncher, ill never go back to TF3D in the near future.
The device is so much easier to use and is far more responsive.
Just thought i'd share incase you wanted to see for yourself!
any screen shots?
milky wallpaper
i tried the same but when i wanted to place a wallpaper on the today screen it went all milky.that and the loss of the tf music player made me go back again. how did you solve these issues?
It's not very difficult to create an ui which is faster, easier to use and has more options to customize than tf3d. Whats cool about tf3d - the wather app? I'am wondering, what kind of benefit people see in this peace of software.
I am using MS2 and it beats tf3d in all regards. You can get with a few clicks to anywhere. If there is a menu you miss, you create it, or you delete an existing one. You can use the complete MS2 only with your thumb. (hardware+softkeys). You have shortcuts to your last used programs within the today-screen - if you wan't to keep a shortcut, it's possible to stick them.
MS2 throws you not so early back to WM6 as tf3d. (contacts,notes...) I even find it is optical more apealing on the long run and more unified in look and feel.
That there are many ui's better than tf3d is more because of the bad design of it than good design from the others, I have the impression, the makers of tf3d are only interested in smashing some eye-catchers together for nice screen-shots, instead of getting the user fast and easy to the point where he wants to.
The only reason I'm keeping TF3D is without it some system functions don't work. For example, volume buttons stop working during calls etc. etc.

Manilla for Android
This is a home replacement app I have been working on.
May. 13th: Apk
Dec. 22nd: Visual changes, under the hood stuff, open beta soon!
Nov. 22nd: Just added settings picture.
For everyone that complains about not being able to run anything or for me to hurry up. Here is the apk, pretty much nothing works. You will just be able to look at stuff and launch applications. Tabs are not in the right order and dont bother reporting problems to me at this point.
I am def curious to see what you got going on.
yea i would love to see that in action
added some pictures.
sure
Looks pretty cool, I would keep at it.
Nice! You should get together with some other devs for this..
Lol, I'm so curious about what you can do! Great idea.
dont give up this is definately worth finishing.
yeah definitely worth finishing my friend....
"who cares" if some dont like it, if any at all... its great to see a new look and feel
its "Open Source" so dont let someone shut the door
will there be widgets included... doesnt matter, but curious to see if every aspect will be changed, window by window, will there be usage of a new music app, custom this custom that?
wow im lost (intox)
I will finish it, i will maybe make a video soon.
I currently have these tabs planned:
Main screen, contacts, applications, messages, email, weather, music, and settings.
Idk about widgets yet but what would be cool would be to come up with some kind of system that instead of widgets maybe devs can create plugins that add new tabs.
With this can you actually slide accross the tabs? Or do you have to tap each one?
BTW this looks great
i do like this... keep the work up...
if it could be color customizable, that would be fantastic!!!
everything slides, including the main content area the tab content areas slide to show the next. The grid views are very slow, so i need to find a new alternative to them.
Would this be a home replacement application?
This would be very similar to a portion of SweeterHome (alternate Home Screen app). Can tell you that issues you will run into are memory and graphics management (the SH dev has been working a LONG time to work those out as well as a lot of bugs in Android that had to be worked around). Not trying to discourage you. If you can make this a stand alone app without being a Home Screen replacement... I would say go for it.
home replacement is a stand alone app you just add a filter to display in the menu. I dont think it makes a difference performance wise.
Manilla
