No sorry that would mean i would have to redo all graphics and coding, Just enjoy and maybe I will release something black someday.
(suggestion from Alfonso and me: "open up all png's in ms paint and change mode to b/w or just wear heavy sunglasses, they do miracles in situations like these)

Hi philocritus!
yes please, send me the backtrace . Also, did you've contacts on your emulator? I know it's not reason for Throttle to crash but just to know .
Thanks!!

I'm going to try it now!
(and if u want any experiences or comments in spanish tell me ) (for Apbilbo)

bro i just look @ your work since the minimal dialer to see how good you make apps look.this maybe the wrong place but my phone is almost perfect.i'd just like to throw out there for you to please skin the calculator name it minimal something lolthe moguls calculator is so ugly i just use phatpad and add **** up by stylus and paper lol. GOOD JOB HERE!. i just suggest this cause your dialer is the best!!!!!!!!!!!

Everything works in my HTC touch. The only thing is not is the city of the today page: It shows "Amststerdam"
also I can't enter to the config page. Maybe is the same problem I had with the Touchflo3d config.xml file....

You could open the config.xml and search for hometown or amsterdam and change the amsterdam to your town.
Did you try to open the config throug the settings page or through throttleconfig?
After chaging you have to reload the theme.
Good luck!

Ok! Now I have the city changed.
I have tried to enter from both ways. I had this same problem with Touchf3d, and it solved a new config.xml that they posted. I think they were some troubles with the today plugins, so instead of having a list of plugins I had a field to write in the plugin.

oh....my.....God
This is the sexiest eye candy of a Today I have ever seen.

Woops, didn't realize I made a double post.
Hey Paul, the Windows Seven.bmp that you provided is rather...well, there are no gradients, but rather horizontal lines. This is also the case with the sphere in the bottom-middle.
Do you have one thats possibly a true gradient? Maybe this was designed for VGA devices? Also, is it possible to change the sensitivity for this plug in?
Again, these are the best graphics I've seen, and thanks so much for your efforts.

Happy w/ my Throttle

I'm posting this just to say how much I enojoy using throttle over the default HTC homeplug, if you haven't made the switch you should consider doing so now! the touchflo works great, flash can be tricky but is beautiful, and it runs just as fast (sometimes faster) as my homeplug did! I know there aren't many themes for this yet but I don't see myself getting away from this clean black. Having multiple slides available for calendar/photos/apps and more makes life easier! Here are a some shots of my default yet clean and enjoyable set up. Please post your custom throttle pics if you have them!

Tried it. Didnt like the lack of an actual today screen for my plugins. I use IM+ regularly and not being able to see a new message displayed kinda sucked. The ONLY way i was able to even see the plugin was to disable the calender function and enable the plugin in its screen. Even then, it doesnt autoupdate to show a new message. Sigh

you can manually add plugins to any page within throttle and..for the home page you just add the line for the plugin in the xml...its very simple..i did it for voip byut yah the auto update does kinda suck..i just hit the hw start button..it updates the page/plugins

it's sloooow...
and still feels like an addon...

Ahhhh.....can i just download and install it over any ROM's i'm using now? Or has it got to be cooked in with the ROM?
Edit: Found the website. Ignore my question

You can but L26's last B5 is SICK SICK SICK! I highly recommend it!

The TL is not that slow, you just need the good parameters (like using "paged" movements to naviguate through the different tabs / pages). Otherwise the other ways to naviguate are indeed slow (kinetik, wheel of fortune etc).
That's really a nice and useful plugin. Highly customizable and like it has been said, you can add Today Plugins in the TL, so you can virtually have lot's of them because you can have as many "tabs" has you want.
The TL in Laurentius26 TL B5 indeed highly rocks hehe.

I don't get it, this is faster than anything i've used before, maybe i've been using the wrong roms, but I doubt it. The only issue I have is the same with all my other roms, to use skyfire or opera!

the only way I found it to be useable using L26's beta 5 was to remove the calendar page (or add pocketbreeze and remove the default calendar) everything else worked pretty well.

How do I get this 'Throttle' thing, and is there any help or information reguarding installing and setting this up?
I've never flashed or cooked my ROM before, if it consists of that, and I would rather not. This seems really nice, and since I can not get the HHC program to cusomize my Home screen now, this may be something to try.
Any help?

Flashing is not hard, it just needs care.
Here is the main Wiki of the Kaiser.
To know how to flash a ROM, please read everything here. The first time you flash, it's taking time cause you are new to that game and you need to install first a soft called "hardSPL". Then you'll be able to flash (install) a ROM. If you flash this one (L26 v10 Beta6), you'll have the ThrottleLauncher pre-installed .
If you don't want to flash a ROM, you still have the posibility to install the ThrottleLaucher by yourself following this post.

I love calendar, mostly for the swiping to next or previous month, i've got alot of **** in my calendar and it helps to not have to 'leave' the home page to open calendar to see when i've got upcomming appointments.

As far as flashing a new rom I suggest you read the wiki on rom flashing how to's.
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Kaiser#ROMx20.Upgrading
It's fool proof if you READ everything! And by using a stock rom that came with the phone you are missing out on alot of Kaiser's features that you paid good money for!

Hi. How do i get the home screen with that all black. as you have it nufsaid ?
my top line and background of the clock is in the standard today colours(blue)

SMS GPS (sms your gps location)

Hey cats, a rom i had included the GPS Location program . kinda neat . but i tried installing it on other roms, but due to it being unsigned it didn't work. and i dunno, i just wanted one like this. the contact list uses your touchflo too . so it's easy to navigate . so i made this ...
Version 2 (Requires .net 2CF)
I didn't want to hook into SMS as a service and keep this app running. So to display someone elses cordinates, you can either click on the google link in the SMS, or copy and paste the cordinates into the App's Search tab. I embedded a http request to the google image server to display the location. Also, if you want to enter a number, just click "SEND SMS" without selecting a contact.
anyway here it is...

Hi, I like that ... a lot ... very handy if you're trying to meet up with your mate.
I don't know if your text includes it, but what about sending a link to google maps, not the mobile version as not everyone has it installed. I wrote a program a few months ago and edited and sent the link below as it works great in the TyTN.
http://m.reimers.dk/?coords=37.4249000549316,-122.007400512695
Also what about a manual phone number entry box.
Get those 2 updates done and it's definately getting a privaledged button on my Home screen shortcuts!!

thanx man . that's exactly why i wrote it . i was heading to a pub the other night.. my friend's asking where it was and he's got an iphone so i was thinking how great it'd be to fire off sms cords in a lightweight app .. no strings attached . now i can, and have!
great to tell your GF how far away you are from picking her up too .. they love that . gives them time to do their hair and pick out sexy undies (hopefully the latter)
i'll make the change for u to add your own number . no problem .. but i do have a question regarding your google map page . it's nice . i'm thinking i can do that in the app itself . did you use an api in your aspx? i'm not familiar with the googly map queries . but i'm curios how you extracted just the image or was it done by a http request and parsing the img src?

Sorry mate, I just found it on the web, it looked optimised for a mobiles screen and it worked great. How it works, no idea!!! I suggest just editing the lat/long with your detail and firing it off do the end user in the SMS. All the other internet maps I looked at were full of advertisments and looked awful.... it took days to find that one!! Hope he never turns it off.

I'm currently trying to get my GPS logged on so I can try out the map link.

I'm having major problems with the SMS map links ... It'll only ever open half the page either on WIFI or UMTS (Picture on left). BUT if you change the link to "http://m.reimers.dk/?coords=37.42490, 2.007400512695" you get the google map, without all the adverts AND Nav buttons (picture on right).

my only concern with using your http://m.reimers.dk server is how long it will exist for? how reliable is it? i don't want my app to stop working because your server went down. let me know

I guess it's the risk you have to take if you want your application to work the best it possibly can.
I've been using it for 6 months with no problems.
Go on ..... you know you want to!!

Another SMS bug in Manila 3D!

Hey, before you start reading my oncoming wall of text, please read this: THIS IS NOT ABOUT EVERY THIRD SMS DISAPPEARING.
With that out of the way, I'll post my problem. See, I really love TouchFlo and it makes me wanting to use my phone more, so it's great to see so many roms incorporating this. itje's roms are praised all over the Xperia part of the forums and I like his roms as much as they do - there's just one problem. You know the sms program cooked into itje's TouchIT roms? The one with a seperate "Send" button and a black framed text entry box? Well, this text entry box won't stay on the button, right over the Windows Mobile softkeys, like it should. Instead, it floats about half an inch up from there, overlapping about 3 of the latest text messages in the conversation. This is really annoying, and makes me stick with the stock rom.
I noticed that somewhere in the TouchIT-threads someone also had this problem, and tried to solve it. After much searching I still can't find it, and belive me - I've searched like a freakin' narcotics dog.
My question is: Is there a way to delete this program and map the sms tab to open Windows Mobile sms? Or possibly a fix?
It's a shame some of us with this bug (I assume I'm not the only one) aren't able to enjoy all the great TouchFlo roms here because of this bug when maybe there's an easy fix. Since all the threads I've started before this one has been ignored, I hope this problem will get some attention anyways. I'm happy to test possible fixes, I'm used to re-flashing my X1 once a day. I don't think I'll come up with a fix myself since I don't have the knowledge of WinMo (yet!).
Regards
/Felix

yeah, i have the same prob. i actually like windows sms better, when u go threw MESSAGES > ALL MESSAGES > anyone.
i would like to know a fix too.

HOW MANY TIMES DOES IT NEED TO BE REPEATED
if it was any lower it would conflict with the slide out tab in landscape the one that has the icons.
this is not a bug, it looks like it's how HTC designed it..
I've answered this before (as have other people) did it really need another new thread?
If you really believe this is just a part of Itjes roms then search the forum, loads of people on different devices have exactly the same thing..
go get a blackboard and repeat after me..
It's not a bug
100000 times...
then when you've finished you might actually bother pressing Allmessages instead of Startnew thread on the forum..

Hmm, I really tried to find a solution (or in this case, answer) but so what? This thread dies out soon, and a mod is free to delete it if it's in the way of more important stuff. Sheesh, it's like everyone on the internet is obliged to have their period when a question instead of an answer comes up. This is merely a bug report and you should treat it that way I think - as something constructive. Since you answered it so many times, why not decide NOT to answer it or answer it in a nice way? Either is fine with me but thanks for telling me it's not a bug.
This leads me to my next question, thus not making this thread obsolete and reeking of flame war stench - Is there a way to map the sms text to opening the message in WinMo sms? This is not necessary, of course, but to overpass the TouchFlo sms althrouh would be great.

oh come on, fards - you'd REALLY miss the opportunity for these little rants if these postings would stop alltogether tomorrow...
some people should read up the difference between show-stopper, bug and design-flaw though... (not sure if even the last one is right for this issue, what's the alternative?!)

Download mode9 editor, cruise the lua files until you find the one responsible for the messaging app, learn how to prgram lua and then code it to call tmail.exe instead of the HTC solution. Simple.
Or you could try cooking a ROM without the HTC message enhancements package?

Thanks for this answer, I've tried to cook my own rom but it came out rather buggy so I'll go with other roms while I'm learning.

Rather than being silly, you could A) search B) search C) press the allmessages which brings up the Winmo SMS app.
I even said it up the top (as I have before over and over again).
If there was a "fix" don't you think it would have been announced by now, or included in the roms?

May I offer a forth suggestion?
Try SSMaHo?
I have a bit of simpathy here, this 'feature' is rather unhelpful, but not as bad IMHO as the one that seems to lose my response mid type when I click somewhere wrongly (I honestly can't remember what) so I have to start again.

I think I may go back to 2.95... (but I'll have a play with a few of the new ROMs seeing as how I'll be going back to stock for returning the X1 on Sunday...)

There's a solution for this in Rhodium, looks like this, excessively handy:

[HOW-TO] Custom Dial-Tone Sounds

Sorry guys, as I no longer use this phone, and since more current versions of Android do not work with this mod anymore, I am no longer supporting it, nor hosting the files in my dropbox.
Disclaimer: Not that anything in this tutorial should be harmful to your phone, but I am not responsible for any damage, bricking, yelling and screaming fits, keyboards, mice, pens, pencils, small children or household pets that get thrown across the room as your attempt this.
Also, thank you to smeltn. If it wasn't for him, I would have never begun this foray.
Hey there! You're obviously in this thread because you're interested in changing your dial tone sounds. Well here's how to do it.
First let's be clear about what you're going to be changing. When you tap the phone icon, you see this screen:
{
"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_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
And when you start dialing a number you hear some sounds. Those are the sounds we're going to be replacing. If you don't hear any sounds, go to Settings > Sounds and make sure Audible Touch Tones is checked like I have done here:
Things you will need to do this:
Some kind of file manager with root access. I like Root Explorer myself, but anything will work.
Replacement sounds. I will include a couple I have found online at the bottom of this post. They most likely will have been taking from an iPhone theme and just converted over for our phones by myself.
And of course some extra time
BEFORE you start, make sure you've unzipped the files from one of the attached zips on this post or from one you've made yourself and put them on an easily accessible part of your sd card on the phone.
Here are the steps you will need to follow:
Open your file manager.
Navigate to /system/media/audio/ui
Look for the files Key0.ogg Key1.ogg Key2.ogg Key3.ogg and so on until you get to Key9.ogg. Also look for KeyAsterisk.ogg and KeySharp.ogg. Either rename these files or copy them off to a safe place in case you want to revert back to them. If you want to delete them, that's your choice. I will also attach a copy of the original sounds to the end of this post.
Hopefully you've put the replacement sounds in a place that is easy for you to find them. Take the replacement sounds and put them into the /system/media/audio/ui folder.
Reboot the phone and go test out your sounds. Hopefully if all was done correctly, you should have custom dial tones.

Haha. Thank you. And it is sad that some people have the unfortunate experience enough to be able to relate to that.

Oops. Forgot I moved the file locations on my DropBox after posting. Links updated.
Edit: Also added 3 new sound packs

Thanks. How do you increase volume for dial pad tone?

Make sure your system volume is turned up too then.

Hey.. what do you know... I like it

Worked like a charm, with two caveats:
1. The Daft Punk sounds are very quiet, even with the system volume at 100%.
2. The only free file manager with root access that I could find in the market was Android Mate.

I'll reupload the sounds after I make them louder. I'd also post by apk of Root Explorer, but that's against XDA's warez/piracy rule. If anyone would like, you can email me (my email is on my profile page) and I will point you in a general direction of where to find a copy. But I HIGHLY recommend biting the bullet and purchasing the app. It's well worth the money.
Edit: I made the sounds louder and updated the link in the OP. Download this: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/13362181/Daft Punk Dial Tones.zip and try them now.

LOL dude awesome, daft punk awesome

I can't listen to it right now as I'm on my phone but I will also work on that in the morning after class. As for now, I have a splitting migraine and need to get some sleep.

Easily obtainable. I'll add that later today when I get the chance.

I have this working now. Same process as in the OP. Only the files you're replacing are:
KeypressDelete.ogg
KeypressReturn.ogg
KeypressSpacebar.ogg
KeypressStandard.ogg

hm... I replaced the files, but it's still doing the regular sound on the keyboard.. I'm no noob, but I'm guessing that because I'm using the Fascinate it's making the difference...

I'm not to sure that really matters. Which keyboard are you using? I've noticed the Samsung Keyboard has a different sound click then the Android Keyboard and no matter what I do, the Swype keyboard makes no sounds even if I enabled it in the Swype settings.
