T-mobile Wing Mod Requests :)

hello all, i have a couple requests (most likely has to do with registry editing)
1: Hide the top bar (time, and stuff)
2: Have a big invisible x button to close programs (no need for stylus)
3: Hide bottom bar (calendar/contacts) but still be able to use the soft keys to access them
thanks a bunch in advanced

nice request
those are some nice request. but if someone even tries to cook this rom then we should think of giving them a donation for their work dont you think?

As taken from my guide:
Can I get rid of the "Contacts / Calendar" bar?
Dcino Bar is a great app to get rid of it. Simply place this app in your Windows/Startup folder, you can download it Here

Click to collapse
you can still use the keys on the phone to access the "contacts or calendar"

thx a lot tyler, it worked great, is there anyway to make it invisible for all programs as well?

One of the Rom Cookers need to keep these ideas in mind...
Maybe have a version out which is fully powered by the touch cube and pocketCM default. Its becoming more smoother to use as a regular phone and I can see my calendar on the main screen!!!

i actually prefer a software solution rather than loading a new rom

The author of pocketCM asks that it not be included in ROMs.

Ugh... yes! I want a big x button so I don't have to turn my finger and slide it up in the corner to hit the x.
WM5 on the older PALM devices have the X button moved to the left so it's not up against the edge; can we do that on the thing by editing the registry somehow?

I use FTouchSL to do this. I made the top left active corner a close option so it closes the application thats open. You can set how many pixels it is & the amount of time it takes to activate. It works perfectly

Titlebar, "X" and "ok" buttons...

I know that this is a bit general but does anyone know of a way to enlarge the "X" and "ok" buttons (in the top right of the screen) to make it more finger friendly?
I don't mind if it enlarges the titlebar (as long as its not too large).
BTW - I have an X1 - running "vanilla" WM6.1
Any help would be appreciated!
Regards,
Alan

You can use a WM 6.51 rom?
The X/OK button has been moved to the bottom right and are much larger

Left Handed People Rom

I'm one of the 10% of left handed people in the world and was wondering if anybody had managed to make a rom for kaiser for us lefties if not then whats the best solution as the scroll bar on the right hand right means my hand is over the screen so i cant see while i have to scroll hope someone can shed some light on this

Try looking around here, although I don't remember seeing any left-handed ROMs there. As for the scroll bar, there was a thread about that in the Off-Topic forum a while ago, and although many agreed that it would be nice to do, nobody had the slightest idea how one would do so.
You might want to try a WM6.5 ROM, as they have excellent finger scrolling (so long as you disable Touchflo scrolling in Kaisertweak).
Dave

we should make a seperate lefties forum lol
I agree, for me, WM6.5 overall works great. Contact, home screen, app launcher scrolling were all seamless. and the old control panel type stuff is gone so you get to use the honeycomb to browse through the settings options.
for me it's way better than trying to use a tiny scroll bar no matter what side it's on.

What's your oppinion on the new WM6.5 build (23028)?

Has anyone else tried the new build?
What do you guys think?
I personally hate the new arrangement (with the close menu at the bottom). Plus it f.... up a lot of my apps as that bar seems to overlap on the menus of many apps.

I repeat what I posted on WMPoweruser:
My feelings are the same as before.
The UI is not consistent in it's look, some things are so bad.
What I like:
1. Homescreen
2. Enlarged task bar
3. Some UI elements enlarged
4. Smooth scrolling through almost anything
5. Apps menu when hitting windows icon.
6. New buttons added
I hate:
1. Too big menus – scrolling through menus is a pain in the ****ing ass.
Why do display 3 lines of text on a big screen?!
Hopefully it'll change on higher res devices though
2. New buttons look like ****. As well as scroll bar – it does not go anywhere
with the old UI look. I appreciate this "3D" attempt but it could be simpler!
3. All the elements are enlarged to the extent it looks like a dumb phone. Awful.
4. Hopefully the blue colour can be changed.
So, very mixed emotions as for me. But I hope this video is on TPro or Diamond,
so on 480×800 screens it will look smaller. What a waste of space, look at build in file manager
or the menu in Total Commander, IDIOTIC.

Double post

I like the 23022+ Builds, aside from 2 points.
1) The lower buttons now overlap my Manilla slightly, looks odd but doesn't really effect functionality.
2) Accessing task manager is MUCH harder.

What do you mean?
EDIT:
The leak 23034 looks so much better!

When I tap the top-right corner in 6.1/other 6.5 Roms I get the little drop down menu where it shows my open programs. On 6.5 (at least the rom I tried) was very iffy with that, I press the top right and I kept getting the enlarged notification bar.

I really hate the new look its just so messed up. just making things bigger doesn't mean its finger friendly. they just making things bigger. what if they remove the bottom bar and make it look more like android. they have to change alot on the interface.
whats preventing me to go android is that there is no good navigation software i have tomtom on my x1. if i didn't use tomtom i was gone from wm to android.
I hope for us that the final build will look better than this and i will stay with older builds without the bigger battom bar.
the only thing that i like is the homescreen with titanium and the scrolling but that was it.

23028 looks really incomplete, which is a bit off putting, but is obviously to be expected. 23034 looks a lot better, and both builds show MS is going in the right direction anyway. I just hope it can be sorted so the newer builds don't overlap with TouchFlo, cos it looks a bit weird when it does.

Trying to find HTC HD ROM that spins screens vertical & horizontal

HI all. I am trying to find a rom with the following features.
I was shown a ROM that was running on 6.1 but was told there was a 6.5 version.
The software allowed screens to roll up & down, left & right with the flick of the finger across the screen. When flicking through screens they would shrink in size and appear like a hexagon and rotate until you select a screen.
Please help if you can

Sounds to me that you are looking for the spb mobile shell.
http://www.spbsoftwarehouse.com/products/mobileshell/

Thank you. It certainly looks like the shell.
Would you know of any other options that would be available without the price tag.
