Setting up custom screen - 8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General

I have been trying to add items to the custom screen on my O2 XDA mini s and am having a few problems.
I have things such as Word/Excel/Powerpoint/Mediaplayer/Notes on there but would like to have the Pictures and Videos link and My Documents or just any folder I choose but these will not get selected.
I have no other software installed onther than that which it came with.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Have a look at SBSH I Launcher App it works brilliantly for shortcuts on the today screen, i couldnt be without it now

[REQ] HTC touch apps

i have a tmobile Wing running wm6 and i have tried all htc touch apps on this website and they dont work for me... can someone either upload working apps(like the contact manager, the comm. manager, the cube thing) or upload a working ROM of the HTC touch(which will work on the WING) for the 64 bit computer??
how are you installing them?
you realise you put the cab file onto the phone then execute it there rather than your pc right?
thats the impression i get from your post...
yes i know that, i am not a nub... i have installed many apps, but they end up screwing up my phone cause it works so slowly
bump ...
All the HTC touch apps that I found from explode, they all work fine on my SX66.
Can you describe more about your phone, and how you install the application?
What symptom/behaviour are you seeing on your phone?
well, i transfer it to my storage card, and then run it. later i get a successfully installed message. i soft-reset my phone and then either the program doesn't start up, puts my phhone in a infinate reset mode, or doesnt work correctly.
the htc cube is installed, but i can see the cube! i see this S icon, and a P icon when i slide my finger from bottom to up . since it didnt work, i unistalled it.
the contact manager from the all htc apps extracted sticky starts up, but i cannot change the theme! i see the regular old contacts manager with a white bar, when i run my finger over it, it shows a letter, and scrolls to it, but doesnt have the touch interface i need, and its not graphical at all
and the comm. manager REMOVES my comm. manager, rather than adding one
i am running wm6, boots fine now, the following htc apps
-audio manager
-htc touch theme
-htc album
-htc touch skin for wmp
-spb backup
-htc touch wait cursor(got from freewarepocketpc.net)
that should explain a lot

explode? can you please post some links and i will try them and replay asap
The 'htc cube' your talkin about is not the actual cube. its called FTouchFlo and is used to scroll and launch programs by using gestures. the changing between s and p is changing between launching mode and scrolling mode. What your looking for is the TouchFlo cube, which i belive must be cooked into a rom to work well. there are other options out there that can be cab installed, just search around the forums.
u mean something like this?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=343583
i tried that but in the instructions, i dont know what the prequisites are n i dont have em
i copied the shortcuts to the startup folder and then i ran the program in the folder containting the exe file that came with the zip
can someone post a cab, that i run, and will configure my phone that it works... i dont want to do the "remove the following apps from the startup folder...", the cab file should do that...
i also have problem with touchflo. i saw a lot of threads on it and i dun know which 1 i have to follow and install.
and if any expert here can help me.
1. i am on wm6. not htc theme.
2. i am on wisbar and wisbar desktop
3. device is atom life.
and i want to use the touchflo. can anyone assist me?
can i do the swiping even my screen is on the wisbar?
can anyone help me with this.
help is greatly appreciated.
thanks!
htc theme is not an operating system. it just alters the way it looks. im runnign wm6 also
wisbar is okay and i dont think it affects touchflo, except wisbar uses up too much memory
so who ever has touchflo working on wm6, can u please post a link to the file, and specific instructions on how to install?

Some questions and problems with Touch HD :)

I got my Touch HD a few weeks ago and I must say its a helluva upgrade from my old Qtek 9100 :up:
I have a few questions/problems here:
Im used to using Today Agenda on my 9100 so I wonder if there is a way to edit TF3D so I can see lots more calender days on the home screen of TF3D? I also wonder regarding this, I would like to edit the TF3D home screen so its more optimised so the calender takes most of the space. Or is there a way to get Todays Agenda to work with TF3D? Im really missing all my calender stuff cause it isnt shown days in advance.. Damn I missing lots of birthdays since I got the Touch HD =)
Another question, is there a way to get the TF3D task manager icon in the right upper corner always show? Now it only shows now and then, would be much faster/effective if it was always there (aside from fullscreen programs that is)
I would also like to be able to remove the Operator information at the top of the TF3D home screen, it just feels unnecessary and just takes away space from my "want to be there" calenders
EDIT: got some new questions now
I cant get email to work, I type in my login information for Windows Live, the same as I always use when I logon Messenger and Hotmail and they dont work in the Live in the Touch HD, what can be wrong?
I want to be able to hear digital radio stations and I cant get anyone to work. Since the built in radio SUCKS, very hard to get a decent quality so I want to listen to swedish radio on teh intarweb instead
I tried different kind of streaming, none works :/
here is a few Ive tried:
http://www.sr.se/sida/artikel.aspx?artikel=2260956&programid=2321 (swedish Im afraid)
http://www.di.fm/
www.htchradio.com
Ive tried Coreplayer, Built in Media Player and Streaming Media. I cant get it to work... Anyone got any ideas?
Anyone? Seems like everyone else gets all their streaming stuff working
noone to help with more calender days on the home screen of TF3D? It's really a big issue to me.
same for me! Thats a big part of having a smart phone /PDA, that you can have full control of your calender and see in 20+ days whats happening...
Try "Second Today" for "Today Agenda"
I used the "Today Agenda" program before
and it's a good software.
To keep using it, I install "Second Today" program
for it. It helps to enjoy the pros of TF3D & "Today Agenda"
AH perfect! It works like a charm :up:
I can finally have lovely Todays Agenda and with another wallpaper to! :drool:
Thank you very much for suggesting this

Looking for a today plugin launcher that allows...

Hi there all, I have been searching for a good today plugin type launcher... one that just sits on the today screen as a plugin but allows me to access and launch programs and apps in much the same was as HTC home did for my TyTN II...
I have at the moment on my today screen
the standard clock/date bar *
calendar *
message bar *
newsbreak *
tomtom
skype
home ++ *
the google search plugin
and finally spb wifi/gprs/data counter *
I also use and love the S2U2 and would like to keep this
Can anyone help me out with a good launcher that doesnt suck battery or memory and can incorporate all the above (leaving the items with a * next to them visible)... I have been looking at ultimate launch, iLauncher, pocketbreeze and a couple of others but still cant make up my mind or figure out a heck of alot just looking at the pretty pics on the screen... advice would be greatly appreciated... many thanks in advance...
having moved from the tytn II as well, i decided that i couldn't really beat my old setup and just went with htc home on my x1.
i tried a few other launchers and couldn't find anything to beat it. i have bound Launch Manager to a double-press of my left softkey to access the rest of my apps quickly ...
i'm using the vga version of htc home called PJC HTC Home. it was acting a bit strange when i first installed it but it works flawlessly now ...
Can you access the weather on it? and are all the other functions fully functioning now? I found there were a few hiccups with HTC Home... I did have that on at one stage and I do like it but the weather bug and lesser functionality was a bit of a downer for me...
it works perfectly.
there was a bit of a lag when switching to landscape initially but it either fixed itself (?) or i re-installed it and it worked perfectly.
the weather thing was fixed by a regedit - i think the timeout had to be increased to get the weather to work properly.
the only think that didn't seem to work was the music tab but i use s2p instead now so that's cool.
Ok I might give it another shot... many thanks for your advice...
the Big VGA home from the x7510 works as well (see the athena sections).

I also forgot about this one..

cheers
Fards... helpful as ever, you are a star thanks mate... will try all these in the next few days... many thanks...

can't remember trying on the x1.
Shouldn't be that hard to get working if not, especially if you have audiomanager installed.

Weather plug-in for Today page in WinMo 6.5

Hi all
Now the Today page is much improved I've ditched TF3D which is simply too bloated for me. I've rooted around the XDA dev site and tried the Showaco Titanium Weather plug-in but it doesn't work for me.
I'm seeking advice and suggestions if only to redirect me to the correct XDA sub forum.
Many thanks
Tony
search for cheroclock. it has weather in it. and lot of other titanium plugins have it as well...
I also looking for the weather panel, but I dont need the clock, just something simple.
titanium
same here
loving the new today screen, but would like to have weather there as well

Thanks for this. I know nothing of the other installs required (mortscript and chrome editor)
I'll try to research the process and install this.
If any other have any other weather plugin ideas please come forward!
Tony
It's not free but it's not expensive either. Elecont is the best weather program I've ever used and it now has a Titanium plugin. www.elecont.com

ROM with 4 colums + Disable HTC messanger

I see that there are many new cooked ROMs available now.
Too many for me to try all.
I therefore would like to have a feedback on these 3 issues:
1. which ROM has 4 columns grid (under programs)? (Xanny ROM does, any other one?)
2. if standard 3 columns are used in your cooked ROM, how to convert to 4 columns grid? is it easy (I am a non-specialist non-software programmer)? Are there any tweaks so that we can arrange programs in 4 columns without need to edit the registry?
3. which ROM has HTC messanging removed or made "removable"? I strongly prefer the standard SMS messanging function, but I cannot disable HTC messanger...any help?
Thanks a lot!
Saulo
another utilities which I would like to have in the ROM (I cannot recollect exactly the name) is the one which places an icon on the program list to perform a fast soft reset (without any time-losing warnings...). Can somebody point a link for me? A google search of xda-website search results in too many hits.
Thanks again
Saulo
Hi saulo866,
Just pick up the best ROM you like.
You can easily instal 4row Start menu with this *.cab http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=5207820
About the HTC messaging, There is a way to set it back to 2.1, which was good. But its in VGA, so graphic are a bit off. You can found it in this forums, search. Or I found app to dissable HTC messaging and use winmo messaging app. It is for HD (not HD2) 2.5 , but it should work too right? Try it to see, its easily uninstalable http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=556614.
Thanks a lot Kowoboy!
You gave me two very precious in formations which I was unable to find out even after extensive research!
I will try to unistall HTC messanging with the utility you have pointed to me, then I will feedback whether it works or not for HD2
Thanks again!
Saulo
Just tried the HTC Messenger uninstall linked to above on my HD2, worked a treat, thank you so much, i can actually receive SMS' now!
