Hey guys. I've got Ultimate Launch and I want to be able to see what programs are running on the today screen. Maybe an icon row at the bottom. ANy ideas?
-josh
try spb ilauncher. do a search on it.
Wisebar Advanced will show you what programs are running in the top bar of the today screen. Check it out HERE.
Magic Button is on title bar but does not cover any standard info. Only 80 KB executable file. Makes close button really close applications. Can be found here :

doesnt regular taskmanager that comes with tilt show you what applications are running..and you can close them...why use another one?
wktask is a my favourite.
You can alter the size of the tabs, hide system applications and LOADS of other options. Oh and it's free. It is one of the most reliable and light applications of this type and is cooked into a lot of XDA dev ROMs. Get the latest version HERE
I'm using the TF3D surface,
Almost every time I hit the today icon from start menu (especially when another program window like explorer is open), the taskbar suddenly disappears and won't come back until restart of the device. That bug is pretty annoying cause’ I sometimes hit that icon accidently.
For me that icon is completely useless (I use Home button instead) so I'd like to remove it, but it seems to be hardcoded for there is no lnk-file in startmenu folder. Has anyone an idea how to get rid of it??
Thanks
tts very weird I never encounter such a bug
nonetheless you can get back the taskbar without restarting
simply go and launch the browser from tf3d then the taskbar will restore on its own
beats a soft reset haha
Thanks!
I'll try that browser method next time...
Hello guys,
This forum is awesome, it is like make a a wish, and it comes true
now I have a question, the battery status has a great feature of showing the CPU load under the clock on the top bar. thru that i can really see if the device busy doing something!
but this is working only when I disable the TF3D. does anyone know how to get that working with the TF3D?
is it also possible to have the other indicator of battery status, they were very useful. The TF3D is taking the whole screen leaving no space for anything else
cheeers!
as far as i know what you want isnt possible... sorry...
until someone comes up with a modification of tf3d that is...
but until then i`m afraid you must look onto alternatives..
for example:
what i did:
installed mortscript, making it able to run scripts..
installed a script wich made it swap between tf3d and today.
bound a hardkey to this script, whenever i hold down this key is promts me the question to change, if i want, i click ok, and it shuts down tf3d and goed to the original todayscreen... holding this key again it does the opposite.. thus starting tf3d...
now ive got the best of both worlds...
i like this solution far more then secondtoday, this way its even frees up ram because the manilla.exe is really shut down..
all plugins like homescreen++ (formely batterystatus) stay active this way... unlike when you just untick the tf3d in "items" wich will leave yoe with a blank today over and over..
thank you for ur answer, that is also takes time to switch between both applications, the niche thing in the battery status, is just one can see system status without pressing anything!
@ Make a search for " FinixNoverBattery.Cab";see here.
It shows you the status of the Battery and your connection.

yes treu,
but it doesnt show any other information that was already shown in tf3d. only a more precise indicator for the batterystatus..
only way i could think of would be seriously changing the tf3f itself to show some stats... maybe a exta tab could be made by someone...

Hey man
Sounds great.
Can you post the script please
I dont really understand why the TF3D is blocking the indicators of the battery status under the clock on the upper taskbar, they are shown on the top of all windows, not only on the today screen. iam here concerned in the CPU load indicator?
Check
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=401907&highlight=secondtoday
That will be do the trick allowing you to INSTANT-change between tf3d and "normal" today.
The first time you open it all today plugins must be loaded so it takes a little more time (like 4 seconds in my diamond... but the time depends on the number of plugins u want to load) ... but after first load the change takes 0 seconds... u can use a mapped hardware button or through your "most viewed" apps (big icons) in the start menu .... or whatever way ....
I'm using it in my diamond and works perfect !
By the way ... the creator of secondtoday is the same as batterystatus

They are not talking about seeing the status of their battery, they're talking about displaying a software called 'batterystatus' on their today screen
TFT3D & Battery Status
The software batterstatus `now renamed to homescreen plus plus.
With secondtoday and homescreen ++ you can show several systemparameter eg. battery,temperature,hd etc. (see my attachments)
you can find the program here:

Thats a message from a omnia900 user to ikarus(chi-tai).
I am using your wonderful program on my Samsung i900 omnia. But have the following problem.
In the settings for second today I assign the right soft key to SecondToday. Then I click on Apply to Registry. This works fine and I can toggle between my first and second today screen using this soft key.
You can find more in his forum,see attachment.

Hi
The TF3D programs tab has increased the number of icons with a + sign at the bottom of the usual 18 but if I click to add nothing happens and now when you scroll down you get a load of usless icons rather than the programs.
I have tried to remove the tab with TF3D config and then reinstall but this did not resolve the problem.
Does anyone have ideas how to remove them?

That worked a treat, many thanks
I recently bought TD2, and is by no means a big fan of the new startmenu. How is it possible to replace it with the "old" one ?
I've been searching the forum, since I've heard of a little program that can fix this issue, but without luck .
Thanks in advance !
The new start menu comes as part of Touch Flo 3D.....If you distable TF3D in settings\personal\today\items, you get the old menu system.
I'm amazed that anyone would prefer the old WM one.

There are two great lacks in the new menu :
1. too few items available in the 'icons' start page, and no kind of sub-folders or program groups.
then
2. if you go in the full list because your program is not in the icons page, the list can be long and fastidious.
Hope it will be corrected in next version and be available for D2, or windows 6.5 titanium/CHome will replace TF3D
Try TF3D2 Tweak in this thread

Thank you all, for your replies .
If you just want to change the start menu but leave Manila turned on, just change the following in the registry:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\EnlargeMenu\Enable ManilaStartMenu =dword:00000000
After a restart you have the old start menu
Is it possiple too keep both ways?
I mean when you press the start menu on the top of the screen to have the old start menu and when you press the windows hard key to have the new one?
I think this would be more usefull for many people who like the new menu but want some features of the old one!

Ah right, I see. I've not hit that issue, I guess I just don't use that many programs!
One question: how can I enable the old style like in WM 6.1.
I use 6.5 without Manilla (UDK R1.)
It's annoying to select start/settings/connections if you want to set more the 1 thing...bluetooth, WIFI etc....also for programs.
Or how can I customize the start menu in 6.5 ...order, content...
another way
This would keep the new start menu when you tap on "start" and make pop-up a replica similar whith the old one when you tap on windows or whatever icon you have on the upper left corner of the screen near the text "start". I didn't make this just downloaded from somewhere.

Doesn't seem to work on my Diamond2. (Does nothing)
I was wondering if someone could do a buttom like the settings buttom in the new start menu that could open the old programs menu.
I think this shouldn't be so difficult, since there is a similar buttom for the settings.
Welcome here Liviu. (Bine ai venit pe aici, marfa site-u pt HTC-uri)
I try it Quick Menu, it's like Windows PC START menu and it's hard to use with a finger
I speak about the old menu from WM6.1 not Pc windows...
Ksara it's works on TD2 I try it and work well but it's not what I want.
You are right Pauln, it's not finger friendly but hei! that stylus is there so ...
Anyway for me it does the job so here is a pic for those who want an alternative. The icon "Quick menu" you will find also in Programs.

I'm one of them. I disabled touchflo and installed spb pocket plus: I've got everything in sight, with no need to flip over strange desktops and icons!
I found these registry entries somewhere else and i thing these are the key to make a shortcut in manila programs folder to the old Programs folder Just like there is for the settings folder (number 3)
"Remove the locked program tab items
Code:
HKLM/Software/HTC/Manila/ProgramLauncher/0/IsReadOnly
HKLM/Software/HTC/Manila/ProgramLauncher/1/IsReadOnly
HKLM/Software/HTC/Manila/ProgramLauncher/2/IsReadOnly
HKLM/Software/HTC/Manila/ProgramLauncher/3/IsReadOnly
Change this value from 1 to a 0 and you can then edit their shortcuts."
Please someone who is familiar with this , create a shortcut.

But what is the way to do it, because I don't want to install some software that almost does the same. I want it the old way.
Please help.
