I am starting this thread because I think everyone has a favorite application. I have found in the past that when someone shares their favorite I give it a try and sometimes find it useful as well. This thread will allow everyone to see what good app's are out there and maybe be of some use.
To get it started, I would have to say out of all my applications I have installed I think my favorite is SPB Mobile Shell. I think navigating my other applications much easier with Mobile Shell.
favorite to play with is pocket snes most often used would be weather panel cuz its so versatile
I really LOVE Finger-Friendly Friends!
I use it every day!
wktask
:}
Maybe second runner up would be...
spb insight!
live search.
"where do you want to eat tonite?"
"I dunno, let me find out..."
"Wait, I want to see a movie, but what's playing? where and what time?"
"already on it..."
wktask
Another vote for. I thought I was the only one using it. The app is just so customisable. I used to use Mobile shell till I stumbled over it.
Opera Mobile 9.5 surely??????
My sole reason for keeping the Kaiser.
Also
Coreplayer: bored? Youtube? yes.
Or Youtubeplay if you're short on funds.
Don't need tabs on a smallscreen device personally but I used wktask with my Athenas and Execs.
Live search? Meh, I use SearchToday, a nice little google search plugin. Dunno who made it but it's free and very small (see attached)
Another vote for Live Search. Love the gas prices app.
I don't know about a single favorite, since different apps do very different things, so it's entirely dependent on what I need/want to do at the moment.
I do really like BeyondPod since I listen to podcasts every day when walking to/from work.
And the free weatherbug direct today plugin - best today weather app I've seen yet.
Microsoft live search or TomTom7...two of my regularly used and favorites
Worms World Party
and I really like Opera 9.5... I use every day for more than 2 hours..
cheers

can you put this plugin on your today screen? like how live search bar is on the today screen as a plugin?
One more vote for Opera 9.5 - if you haven't tried it yet you don't know what you're missing.
Favorite App
by far has to be Live Search! its the new 411 at your fingertips, easy to save contacts, quick and easy directions, traffic updates, gas finder, oh is it going to rain today? i don't know let me check. it has everything and it's free and does not need a data plan, Nuff Said!
Nice Thread!
By far my absolute favorite: SLINGBOX!!!!!
NetFront 3.5 browser comes in second
Other that that.........My Tilt being tweeked out in everyway you could imagine!
Later!
It's difficult to decide my absolute favorite, but I have found ShantzTodayChanger and BatteryStatus both incredibly useful in customizing my Tilt.
I was using googlemaps for awhile before I discovered the wonders of LiveSearch! Definitely one of my favorite apps too.
Difficult decision ...
It's like asking a fat kid in a tasty cake factory what's his/her favorite kind of cake, lol. But I'm game though. It's hard to mention just one app and many here will mention two or three apps.
Well for me, my favorite app has to be Wktask because it's highly configurable, stable, and it quickly connects me to many of my favorite apps (live search, opera browser/opera mini, tom tom, and coreplayer). I had to sneak those in, lol.
If i had to name only 1 app, it would be Opera 9.5 ! Best browser ever !
Second to that is TotalCommander, i love this and it's the application i use the most.
FlexWallet 2006
live search and def skyfire
I'm not opposed to using the stylus by any means, and I knew when I bought the phone that it wasn't intended to be operated completely with your fingers - it's certainly no iPhone (and I mean that in the best way possible). However, there's certainly something to be said for the convenience of having something you can operate with your fingers alone, especially if you don't have a free hand to hold your phone while you use the stylus in the other to navigate.
So, with that in mind I'm looking for any recommendations on programs that can be used to make the Kaiser more finger-friendly. The only ones that come to mind immediately for me are S2U2, FFF and the various Cubes. What are the other options available?
Thanks in advance.
spb mobile shell 2 is as finger friendly as it gets, it includes a wide variety of tools so that you barely need too traverse outside of the shell
Yeah, I've been looking at that, definitely looks great for finger navigation. Just wish it weren't $30 Looks like I'll have to wait to pick it up, I'm a little low on cash seeing as I just bought my Kaiser.
I'd also vote for mobile shell....
but also the excellent pocketcm for contacts and phone stuff. (and this ones a freebie)
Touch Commander is pretty nice, but also commercial.
Finger friendly friends for your contacts - very finger friendly
http://www.jotto.no/fff/
TomTom Navigator 7 is pretty "finger friendly" IMO.
icontact
iContact (freeware on XDA) in its latest version (0.74) is fantastic. A little faster and a lot smaller memory footprint compared to pockemCM. Very iphone like (in a good way).

There are alot of finger friendly apps out there and the software just keeps adding up on the internet daily then there was a year ago or when the kaiser came out for sale in 2007...there is so much great .cabs and software out there on the internet that youlll find everything you need especially finger gesturing applications easily. The great thing about the kaiser and why i think it stands higher in quality then alot of PPC/PDA's out there especially the iphone is the ability to download and use 3rd party applications out the box... i mean im sure the iphone has the capabillities for 3rd party apps, once you unlock..then jailbreak and all that other jazz that u have to do to the iphone before its capable of being a functional and useful phone and after all that i dont think it still has more then a handful o applications out there for it..deffinetly not as much software thats out there now for windows moble phones..but anywayz theres so much finger friendly software out there on the net intended to be for PPC's...so with that being said theres theres good apps that mimic the iphone finger gesturing...like TOUCHFLO or TOUCHFLO 3D, its software that comes preloaded now with all new htc phones so that you barely have to use your styluses....after i installed the newest touchflo software(its not touchflo 3D, but still just as good) i barely even use the sylus now. With this flo touch technology u can finger scroll through all applications, and there is certain software that is finger friendly and beatiful to watch and use your fingers and especialy the thumb movements like the icontacts app...its one of the best contact manager software and it mimics the iphones contact list application. You can flo through your whole contact list in 2 seconds and its free...and the new icontact has alot of new optionns like a quick favorites list that is like speed dial so i would suggest gettin icontacts 0.73 or .75 once you install touchflo newest free software. You wont get a more finger friendly contact manager....trust me youll never use another contact manager...and its backround and theme is black with white letters which goes with the black theme of the kaiser itself..but i think u can switch the colors around..other then that PIE is finger friendly once u install touchflo and also tom tom 7 gps software and the great HTC album aplication (photo and camera software) rivals and mimics the iphones photo app and i think blows the iphones picture software out the water..and theres so much other software out there that becomes so much more easier to flip through with ur fingers and thumb especially...and personally i never use the cube software i think its a waste of space and i have no use for it....htc home and other htc software for your today plugin screen is good enough...and youll notice other software is much more easier to scroll through once you have touchflo or the pay version of touchflo 3d because of the extra benefits...so enjoy and watch the ease of barely having to use your stylus...but dont forget our phones are ment for stylus's and theres nothing wrong with it...the iphone may not need a stylus but that phone has alot of short comings especialy when it comes to text messaging department, its horrible..ive tried it on friends phones and had the worst times trying to text..would take close to 5 minutes writing a 4 sentence message.. and all of my boys that have the iphone all tell me they wish the iphone didnt only have the on screen keyboard..once they play with my tilt and see the qwerty keyboard there envious to it...cuz the iphones on screen just cant compete, especialy if you have big fingers like me..basically it sucks dog balls, even the new iphone which " needed" to be upgraded to built in gps and 3G., the kaiser when it came out already came with all these luxuries..the iphone needed to "upgrade" to get those rescources so think about that..and just scour the software threads for any type of software u can think of and youll find it..later

yea bro....like i barely ever use my toshiba satelite labtop other then for school term papers and essays and other school work...and for my job when i need to use microsoft office for word and excel for my spreadsheets...so when im at home or on the go...my main internet viewing utility is my tilt man. I find it so much more easier to just flick my phone open and surf the net on my tilt...from youtube watching, movie watching and when im on my forums posting, like this here xda for my phone and acurazine forums for my acura tl community. And my toshiba labtop is not old either its 4 months old and fast as ****! but... i rarely use it for internet scouring because my kaiser is so handy for simple web browsing stuff that i do and more convienent. So yea you alrdy said you know what i meant when your posting stuff through your tilt...its a little hard to be percise and grammer desciplined when typing with the qwerty...it would just take to much time to worry about how your typing needs to be perfect looking...especially when your posting on forums, i could give two sh*ts about a couple of missing parenthesis or misspelled words on forums..cuz people know where im getting at and theve seen enough internet or IM chat to distinguish word play and internet lingo..so yea..wala! lol

Ok so this is actually my first time posting in a long time. i do regularly flash the great roms on this site and use the cabs that are presented here. wonderful work guys.
ok so my question is, is it possible for someone to write some software for some widgets like the ones on the new Samsung I900? I know that it runs off WM 6.1 Pro. But is the today screen widget system a flash program? or built in somehow? it would be so cool to have something like that on the today screen of my 6.0 kaiser. ive seen so many different UIs its hard to name them all. they are all pretty cool in their own ways, but if someone made this as a cab that would be awsome. i know someone will be dumping the I900 rom sometime soon. hopefully!!!!
thanks,
vince
i dont get it, so nobody thinks this is possible? any takers....bueller...bueller...
Two suggestions...
Link to what you're asking about so someone can possibly make comparisons.
Don't be annoying/insulting.
Links to view widgets on OMNIA i900
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0i8NfY_HXas
riiight... i wasnt trying to be annoying or insulting. i figured a quick search on youtube wuold have informed anyone about the phone in question. seems simple enough to me.
well. the Omnia I900 is a new phone that is being put out by Samsung. If you watch the video posted above youll see the widgets that i am talking about. they seem to be flash based. sort of like the ones in vista. i wonder about how much memory they take up. the phone has some other cool things as well like the screen rotate transitions. i love the one from this device. hope some programmers here can chime in on this one.

Apart from the dragging and dropping of widget from the sidebar, everything else is able to be reproduced on wm6 using various methods. rlToday and MobileShell are starting points. The i900 is not that great of a phone.
I figured out the Widgets app is called TouchWiz. i was wondering if anyone has been able to make a cab out of this? i would probably use it if it were available. ive tried a lot of shells, launchers, plugins, they are all cool but none seem to be the end all OS-replacement. by that i mean that they cant do everything yet. some will do some things good and others do other things good, but none do everything good! i know its a lot to ask for from just a shell, but if the next iphone (not 3g version) is any good with a 3rd party following thats growing, i might jump on. its gonna take some great plugs and an awsome os update to keep me on the windows mobile wagon.
i really wish they would start to try and move away from teh stylus usage on their future OS versions. like the Omnia. this would make alot of people happier i think.

-Price - Currently over $1,100 in Australia vs. TyTnII free on most caps. Ouch.
- Poor finger menu navigation. Like most WM6 devices, the underlying OS is designed for stylus use, not thumbs. Comes with a stylus but no slot to put it in the phone.
- No physical keyboard, and dodgy software keyboard which cover 3/4 of the screen making it impossible to see what your typing underneath.
- Haptic touch is cool, but the glossy body is really bad (good?) at collecting fingerprint smudges. Carrying a cloth all day is pretty lame too.
- Battery life is ok, except when using GPS or 3G/HSDPA- reports of going from 100% to fully flat in under 40 mins while using satnav & about 3 hrs talk time on 3G. Cant personally verify this because I only played in-store for about half an hour - google around though..
- Can't use it as a bluetooth HSDPA modem for laptop/PC. Even my 5 yr old nokia can do this..
- Annoying automatic screen orientation, way too sensitive when you moving your arm around and the screen starts freaking out and spinning.
- Reports of random shut downs. Cnet reviewer had 2 in 3 days & pressing the Power On button does not help - have to physically remove and re-insert the battery to reset it.
- Useless "widgets" - Stock ROM does not include Calendar, Messaging or mainstream apps. Like the nazi-esque licensing for the iphone app store, you're not allowed to add / develop non-Samsung-approved apps. So for the time being you have a fancy looking but useless desktop. Standard WM6 "today" screen & various plugins is much much more usable.
Bottom line is its fashion over function. Some will love it, but there's too much iPhone mentality going on to even consider it for folks like me (I like to tweak and fiddle with everything to make a system that suits me perfectly - way better phones already out that can do this easier (TyTnII, imho) )
I do like the camera though, and the weird not-quite-VGA 240x400 resolution.
I agree. I am not interested in flashing a new ROM but would rather customize a few features usings cabs and so forth.
There are some widgets that I would like to use myself. This is very similar to the Vista sidebar that I have become familiar with and appreciate now.
Hi,
i found the related widgets, on rapidshare or megauload.it works fine
on a Qvga pda, but on mine (I780) i have resolution problems
Bye
Herc.
yeah i found a thread in the general-hacking and development section where someone has already made a cab for the widgets. after installing you have to reset your device for them to appear in the today plugins selection. the widgets are really cool but not being able to edit the apps they control at the moment kinda sucks. some of them dont do anything because they are supposed to be connected to programs in the Omnia I900
I recently purchased the HP IPAQ 211.
I know I have seen both Iphone and Touchflo based skins / mods on the internet, youtube, etc.
Where should I be going to research more about this process?
I have uploaded a program called Wisbar Advance and Wisbar desktop which alot of them apparently use, however would someone point me in the right direction to accomplish the task of getting a decent Iphone theme and also Touchflo interface if possible?
Also, anyone have a decent list of APPS for it?
My primary use will be photos of my kids, some music / movies, and basic business apps but nothing more than keeping business contacts probably.
Any help appreciated.
I apologize in advance for the newb question but alot of people mention XDA as the place for PDA mods, but my PDA isnt' listed in the phone list so I don't know if there is a site more directed towards my usage.
Again any help appreciated.

Unfortunately this forum is for HTC manufactured phones and yours is an HP. So there is no page for your phone. You can try some of the generic WM 6 apps here and see if they work on your phone.
Hrmph
I appreciate the heads up.
Would you or anyone know just a WM6 PDA type site similar to this one then?
I will toy around with the apps I find then.
And thank you for the help.
Google is a wonderful thing.....

I had already looked into some of that.
Between Ifonz, Lazyboys Iphone, and half a dozen other rip offs of the iphone skin, I was hoping for more input on what works vs what doesn't before I clog up my device with 10 different skins trying to accomplish the same thing.
I am more interested in the touchflo (probably why I am here) that I have seen on youtube especially because I like the cube effects much more than the simple iphone icons.
Sorry to keep pestering, just wanted anyones experience with some of the apps, not to have people just tell me to research it myself.
If no such person has any other device or has never used anything other than a stock HTC, then so be it.
Well... after doing some reading and watching a couple of you tube videos on the diamond I decided to have a play. I picked up a new boxed locked to orange uk htc diamond from fleabay for £160 inc postage... bargain I thought.
Things I've already done..
The first thing was to get it unlocked so I can use my O2 sim in it. This cost £14 via a site on here.. donation I believe goes to this site. I did download some unlocks via torrents and newgroups but at £14 (15 euros) and knowing the moneys going to someone who deserves it.. I decided to pay + its very simple and straightforward to do. Within 5 minutes I had a working phone on O2 ;-) Huzzah!
Then I sync'd it to my outlook that my iphone uses so I then had a full copy of my current contact's. I have added my email on imap4 to sync every 5 minutes.
Software wise I downloaded tomtom 7.910.9185 VGA Black and some Western Europe 1GB 815.2024 maps and 'got' them working (I already own 3 tomtom devices so I figured they have already had enough money off me for now). uploaded the latest uk speedcam files which I pay for from pocket thingy site and postcodes for good measure. Just tried it on the way to work and got a lock in under a minute which is very acceptable. This is a big plus in my eye's for the HTC over the iphone.. anyway.
Speed improvements - I then found some posts and a little you tube video on how to speed up the touchflo. There were three things you do in your settings (disable beams / disable quick menu on today screen and something else). I then downloaded the advanced config software from here and adjusted my memory cache / filter .. WOW what a difference doing this made.. major improvements !
So then whats next ? I used to use facebook alot and share prices so need to find some apps for them.. but I really can't believe I'm thinking about giving up my iphone...
Are there any apps or things that you could recommend to improve this phone anymore ?
Steve
Not sure if you know this but the diamond 2 has a new version of TFLO and XBOX and friends are trying to port it over to the diamond. Everyone and anyone who owns a diamond and knows about this is waiting patiently for this.....http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=486471
Before changing ROM's or Radio's a HARD SPL is required to protect your device from being bricked.
Read the basics of upgrading here....http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=416211
If you are just looking for simple upgrading, like APP's the here.....http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=441
Just read as much as you can.
UDK has a facebook built in to his ROM!
there is a bbc iplayer which works well you need a copy of coreplayer to use it tho! just search for it
there are pleanty of other useful apps here
flashing a cooked ROM is better any number of tweaks on a standard ROM !
thanks fellas for the advice
I stuck on HardSPL 1.43 and decided to have a play with one of the rom's.. after lots of reading I decided to try v6.4FullHDTFl .. this rom seems to have a good following and I am very impressed with it so far.
would you say this is a good choice ?
I have also seen all the porting work being done on from the D2... looking forward to an updated rom for that.. I have noticed you can download cab files for apps from the D2 would you advise on any for my current rom ?
top forum.. been a member for 5 years.. lol really pushing my posts this year.. lol

yeah thats i how i choose my ROMs ! the ones with the most followings are usually the better (i think). i personaly am a UDK follower although i have tried almost all other roms, some of which are as good
