TouchFLO and CUBE

Doe's any body know where I can download full version of TouchFlo and TouchCube for my Kaiser!!!

Google.com is your friend.

There are lots of versions of the cube out there so there isn't an easy answer.
I have been messing around with the cube tonight and i think the nicest "free" version that you can get going yourself is:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=336234
This is slither's flash based cube. You will need to install FtouchFLO and Flash Lite to get it working. If you read through that thread you should get enough info to get you going.
If you don't want to do the legwork you have a few options:
1) Download a ROM with a Cube cooked in
2) Download UltimateLauncher, a nice desktop shell that emulates a cube type effect (as well as other animation options)
3) Try and then buy either Touch Commander or Spb Mobile Shell. Both have "Cube-like" menus that you can use.

Thanks man!!!Serbia thanks you

HTC TouchFlo and Cube vs. scroll bar
I'm running one of the cooked ROMs with the cube and touchflo... I noticed that I have to add most programs as an exception in the touchflo configuration otherwise the cube will launch or the program will minimize if I move the scroll bar too quickly. Is there a way to adjust touchflo to only recognize slides that are done in the center of the screen? Otherwise I have to add every program with a scroll bar to the exception list because touchflo messes up the scrolling.
Does the stock HTC Touch have this problem?

I used to adjust the Timeout using Schaps TouchFlo Config tool, the lower you make this number the quicker you have to swipe to lauch the Cube.
So long as I scrolled at a sensible speed the cube would not launch.
But that's in the past, Cubes are pretty, but I never use them, other than to show off.
Thanks
Dave.

I wish I could just have the picture dialing instead of the hole cube. I guess a one sided cube. Doesnt really make sense does it.

One place to check
HTC Home comes with most ROMS now standard with a few exections but I cant exactly remember where found my Touchflow version but i included it below also check out this site because they have a great htc home screen customizer http://www.pocketemu.com/download.html I hope this helps.

Adjusting 'finger flick' scrolling speed?

Hi all,
I was wondering if and how you would go about changing the scrolling speed when using your finger...
E.g. If I open anything with a vertical scroll bar (say SMS inbox, file explorer etc), a slight flick of the screen would scroll down (or up) far too quick.
It used to be perfect on my Hermes device as standard.
I'm using Dutty's ROM on my Diamond.
Anywhere that I can change this?
Thanks.

Yes, i would like to know this too. I keep flicking up and down, or accidentally 'clicking an item' which is a pain..

Yeah, accidentally click on an item is also an issue for me (but apparently not for many others!)

Accidental click
Hi,
I'm having the same problem too...
There are some tweaks in the following thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=398265
Also, try the Advanced Config tool... It has some options too.
But with all these, although there is a slight improvement in usability, still the experiance is not as good as the iphone.
More than the scroll speed, the accidental click is a real pain...
Especially in scenarios like: Programs --> Add program and Weather Application --> Add city
Is there any better fix available... pls help.

+1 for me too. This is really really annoying, and actually I don't think anything in the Advanced Config tool makes the slightest bit of difference to this setting. I set 'scrolling' to disabled under TouchFlo settings of Advanced Config too, but I can still scroll and it's still exactly the same as before.

any ideas about this? i just flashed my rom to dutty's 3.4 (originally a 3.2) and in resco explorer, the scrolling was almost as smooth as an iphone but now it's too fast and sometime non-responsive. anyone know what setting can change this?

This worked for me.
Hi guys,
I was just installing the new Manila Controller add on, which comes with FTouchFlo (SL). With the FTouchFlo enabled, scrolling is back to how it should be for me

Where did you find the Manilla Controller app?

Yes. Where did you get the Manila app? I was searching for a way to only allow upon double click, but could not find anything in the settings.

It's the FTouchFlo that does the deal. The mentioned Manila Controller just encorporates a version of FTouchFlo to enable the upslide activation.

Yep that's right, just do a search on FTouchFlo (renamed to FTouchSL?)

Been there, got the t-shirt. FTouchFlo (the old, free version) runs and doesn't do much. Scrolling in native WM windows is still messed up.

Just flashed to latest ROM from Dutty and first thing I installed was FTouchFlo (via Manilla controller). Didn't test the scrolling before, but now, again every menu (native or otherwise) seems to be 'scrollable' for me.

Any other success stories with FTouchFlo? I installed and activated it, but it didn't do much.

I have used this setting to calm this finger flicking crazyness down:
HKLM\Software\OEM\TFLOSettings:
SpeedHigh: default value (25) <-- Change to (5) / SpeedLow : default value (70) <-- Chnge to (14) save and soft reset
Many custom ROMs are including the 5 and 14 setting respectively this makes it crazy fast when flicking with the finger. I suggest using default settings here or, in my case I use 25 for SpeedHigh and 50 for SpeedLow, wich does improve scrolling over default when using the finger but keeps the finger flick toned down. BTW, I've noticed that when flicking witht the finger the first flick engages SpeedLow and a second flick switches to SpeedHigh.

[REQ] Cab Installer to make Mailla and winmo6.5Titanium Different Panels

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

\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

Whatever happened to non-fingerfriendly roms?

I've been in the mood to upgrade to WM6.5 and in trying out some roms, I see that all of them have been "optimized" to be more finger friendly, which to me just means "waste a bunch of screen space".
The things that I hate the most about these new roms are how huge everything is! From the start menu, to dialog boxes, to soft button menus, to on screen keyboards, everything is just huge.
Are there any WM6.5 (or even current 6.1 for that matter) roms that don't have the huge buttons and graphics everywhere?
I like to pack as much information on the screen as I can, and the huge menus and soft buttons just kill that for me.
Are these things changeable once the rom is flashed or do I have to find a rom that has all of this cooked into them?

I'm afraid that anyone who wants to stick with current WM builds has no chance of non-finger friendly menus and screens etc. You must search back to 6.5 RTM or 6.1 builds.

But even the recent 6.1 roms have been bitten by the huge everything bug.
I ran HyperdragonIII Raphael before I decided the try new roms. That one came out in January, and even it has the finger friendly volume adjuster and huge dialer. The dailer I can turn off, but not the volume adjuster. I hate that thing.
I checked out your kitchen, as I'm thinking of rolling something for myself. It's just tough to know where to start. I wish people would release the uncooked roms with their stuff, so we could hack away and fix what we want in them.
I guess what I want is a new rom with recent builds of the OS and tools, but with the original old-school look. I just don't like all the HTC replacement apps that the roms come with now.

I installed the attached CAB on a WM 6.5 ROM and all menus, email lists, etc. became very small, but still readable, so maybe this will work for you.

If you use any Windows Mobile theme made for WM versions prior to 6.5 on a Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM, the theme will revert all menus and other UI elements to the old, ugly style. And in the finger friendly 6.1 ROMs, you can disable the HTC Menu Enhancement through the registry and and stop HTC Volume from appearing in place of the standard Windows Mobile volume popup.

Alternative phone dialer with slide to answer/ignore needed. X2 dialer too laggy.

I once saw a thread here, and I think it used the windows mobile slide to answer and slide to ignore.
The answer slider was green
The ignore slider was red, and u slide it horizontally.
If anyone knows anything about this, please let me know.
I find X2 dialer way too laggy (I am using stock X2), and hard to find contacts. Even the the default WM skin is faster and better.
Anyway, it was a cab file that enabled that skin, and it also changed the keypad a bit better than WM dialer.
Thanks!

It's not from WM built-in but HTC. Search for blackstone, Topaz, or Rhodium dialer.

I just heard from someone that WM 6.5 has slide to answer, but hwo do I activate it?

To be honest, you cannot go wrong with this one
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=442154&highlight=dialer
I know you said there is a function in WM 6.5 which has the same thing...but I think this one is the best
The only thing I would love to see changed (and I know exists just can't find it), is the HTC dialer but when during a call has two buttons; a big button for key pad and a big button for end call...but still it's all good and am happy with this one
