I no others are trying to get this interface to work on other HTC phones is there anyone trying to get it on the Universal? As I use my phone in portrait mode 65% of the time it would seem the best interface to have for a portrait device?
Try this and reply
http://www.mobiletopsoft.com/board/2120/implement-the-new-htc-touch-interface-to-your-pocket-pc.html
This is for qvga only !! and not for ours Universal which is VGA...too bad ...
I too am also very interested in seeing this made for the Universal, any developers here thinking about making a VGA version?.... :-D
Thanks for the link, I guess when I get WM6 will give it a shot. The only thing it does not have is the "cube interface". Unless we can get a ROM chef to incorporate it in to OUR ROM. But thanks again.
I tried the ivan's wm6 touch rom posted in the Universal Mobile 6 board, not good, all the nice touch interface become ugly, waiting for someone get a vga touch interface.
So your using the final beta? I've heard mixed reviews of that ROM. Have you tried the files in the linked posted above they say it will work with WM6. I guess we need someone with a vanilla ROM to try it. So does Ivans ROM have the "cube Interface" or just the HTC home plugin and the comm manager?

I tried that rom and found the touch interface is ugly then switched to other rom. I don't think the linked htc home plugin will work unless you know how to set it to work on vga mode. In the elf2 rom there is only htc home plugin, I didn't see the "cube interface", I maybe wrong since I didn't play too much in that rom. I am still trying different rom and haven't found one that is better,
Vanilla WM6 with linked CAB
Has anyone tried a vanilla WM6 with the linked CABS in this thread?
HTC Touch
I think people are overestimating just how good the touch interface is. I don't have one myself, but after watching every review on the net, it just doesn't look like the (*rolls eyes*) iPod equivalent everyone is saying it is. Sure, it looks pretty, but the interface is slow as hell, and the swipe feature will be hard to use on any device where the edge of the screen is raised.
I'll stick with Spb Mobile Shell with black theme on KDSKamal's WM6-Beautiful thank-you very much.
I hear ya', but I don't care about the Ifone, this an HTC product made for a specific phone Touch/Elf. Our phone is not going to be supported by any carrier anymore, so we as the collective need to make use of what our phone maker has to offer. The Touchflo is the newest thing, wether or not Apple came out with there phone or not I would still want that capability on my phone. Sure I could go buy WAD(Wisbar advance desktop) and recreate the look of it and some functionality of it; but with so many bright minds in this forum, as well as so many other phones of the HTC brand porting it to their phones I thought we might have a chance as well. Hell if I still have my phone and WM7 comes out I will try to get that as well! Please don't take this rant as personal attack, just had a hard day.
Peace
Peace back at ya man.
I agree that we should try to keep our Unis as up to date as possible, and I absolutely agree - when WM7 comes out, I want it on my Uni. What I meant was that, although TouchFlo IS the newest HTC 'innovation', it also seems to be one of their poorest. As I said, I haven't actually used one yet, but after a few hours of video reviews online, it just looks like a s l o w gimmick that HTC Touch users will get annoyed with after a week or so, and wish they could un-install.
Regards
I have both the Jasjar and the Touch and so far I am happy of having them both.
I really like the size of the touch and if you don't want to use the TouchFlo interface, use it like the ordinary PPC. There is no need to uninstall because the default interface is the same as the other PPCs.
Opps
Any updates about TouchFLO for Universal..
Neo users are having it!
Try this it's fantastic, though it has some bugs still.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=328010
Its just a flash program!
Right, it is *.swf file.
You can create a shortcut *.lnk file that link to the *.swf file and place it \Windows\Startup\, bingo, your PPC boots up to Touch Flo.
But anyone figures out how to remove the demo wordings on it?
Wohooo!
HTC Home works on my SPV m5000!
But, looks like crap, fonts are under the skin, the contact icons are bigger than the frame so i can't see the face.
Uninstalled!

Oh and the PDA was slower.

I know you can download different today plug-ins, and i know about VisBar and such, but I don't see how your today screens look so different from mine (after looking at various 'today screen' threads).
My screen is just several horizontal lines, with the usual "no new messages", "active tasts", etc, and a couple of plugins.
I see people's screens with a completely different layout.
Cheers for any replies
matheprat: it might be worth reading through some of the threads on this subject, eg here:

Thanks for the link, very helpful.
How do you get rid of only the bottom toolbar in WM5? I downloaded the program that other people had used, but I could only get rid of the top bar (which i'd prefer to keep), and not the bottom one.
Cheers
matheprat: If you're referring to the program ToggleToday, I haven't released it yet for WM5, but it's coming very soon.

If you need an alternative, try Wisbar Desktop Advance.
V
Note: Wisbar 2 or desktop is very very laggy
Use PPX instead if you want better speed, its just as good as WisDesktop.
This is the skin I m currently using
Does PPX work on WM5? Looking on their website it doesn't mention specific compatibility, but has anyone got it runniung satisfactorily?
Cheers,
Fin
Yes, I forgot to mention PPX. It takes quite a bit of headscratching to get it set up, but it works well in the end. Never tried it on WM5.

I'm still looking for a alternative interface for my phone to operate more easily with my fingers instead of my stylus.
It's so hard to quickly find a contact in my contact list while on a bike, in my car, etc since the scrollbar is like 3 pixels wide. Or to lock the phone or close an application, the icons are to frigging small
Not that I have big hands, rather small for a guy even but still...
Any suggestions?
matheprat: not sure when it'll be released, when I get time!
I'm working on too many other things as well, it's really just when I get a few minutes to work on each bit. Hopefully release fairly soon, as I said, WM5 is done, I need to join it to my old WM2003 code and then check it against a companion today plugin I wrote. Quite a bit of behind the scenes stuff involved

matheprat: no offence taken at all, didn't think you were being pushy.
ToggleToday was one of the first programs I ever wrote, and then I bought myself a Universal to start development on, but accidently wrote VJBigPhone and that kept me busy for a month or so
Now VJBigPhone has gone quiet, I'm finally getting around to re-writing ToggleToday! It's a messy program to write, particularly for dual WM5/WM2003 compatibility, but the basic code is written. Now I'm wrapping it together and will work on a GUI for it.

The MOST stable Today Information plugin eva
By the way, can someone recommend the most stable Today Information Plugin?
I was using latest PowerLevel plugin by ScaryBear but it has lots of memory allocation/deallocation problems. Then I switched to simple 15Kb "TodaysInfo" plugin by Lou Terrailloune (v1.7) and it is quite stable but it has significant rendering delays when rotating screen. So, what is the most stable/fastest one to show battery/memory levels and perhaps it can inform you when your battery charge completed (aka PowerLevel/AudioInformer)?
Thanx!!!
Sounds good - any chance of a link?
Guys,
Please look here onwards to find out what VJSihaya is about, and why the hell I haven't finished VJOkButt yet.
This is not released, not finished, not even entirely contemplated yet. But, have a look and tell me what you think. No testers required for now...

cool stuff. if only I had a vga
Ady, it works on QVGA, VGA, WM2003 and WM5. There's less point using it on QVGA, but it works. Useful to keep contacts open while you're dialing on the phone etc.
V
Amazing VJ,
What does it look in QVGA landscape, cause it seems very promising to me. & now back to fix VJOkButt pls ;-)
Cheers, M
oltp - at QVGA, it looks like the screenshot but 1/4 the size It's obviously less useful, but you can see the skins more clearly.
I've promised I'm not working on anything new for a while now. I'm going back and rebuilding my old apps this weekend so I can move on with this one. So VJOKButt will finally be OK. I hope
V
VJ,
For me there's no hurry to get a new VJOkButt, I bypassed the phone prob & the red button has it's default behavior. I now QuarterVGA is small, on a magician VGA is really pointless. But landscape may be worth trying.
Regards, M
Damn VJ
That is looking smooth.
I'm waiting impatiently 4 a full release...
But now ya have a lot of VJ progs isnt it possibly
2 put them all 2gether in 1 piece? easy and effective?
VJ Operating System or sumthang? :idea:
VJ2005 has been suggested, but as ever, it's too obvious a name for me. Will have to think of something obscure!
I was just thinking - VJSihaya is going to use some low level code to implement windowing. In this way, it might be possible, and this is a big >might<, to grab notifications and show them in an alternative fashion. No promises, but we could then have MSN style sliding popups to show new appointments, incoming calls etc. But I won't try to build up expectations, just directions I'm thinking in.
V
Keeeep on thinking mate, keeeep on thinking mate.
You will bring us lots of nice apps.
oltp: one of my testers has posted some screenshots for QVGA.
It's not very clear, but will give you an idea:
V
V: that looks very promising & at least worth a try. Are you multi-threaded/multi-core, so you can develop your projects parallel?
Man you must be busy with all these developments.
M
Am I multi-threaded? Put it this way - about as well as most Microsoft products are . I have the occassional BSOD, and when travelling on the Tube in London, will occassionally hang, dribbling saliva onto the next passenger. Not a pretty sight, but a good way to get seats...
Seriously: many apps happening at the same time, some overlapping which is useful, some confusing which is frustrating, and many you guys haven't seen, and many I haven't fully envisaged yet.
I have a cool idea for entering new appointments. On the Smartphones I could do it with about three clicks. With Wm2003 and Wm5, I still need a stylus. Am working on an app for that.
And just this lunch time, I thought of a name for another app that I'm writing: VJGreyGoo. It's a long story!

Yes, but he's running it without the VGA hack, so it's >almost< QVGA. VGA is such a tempremental hack, I don't want to risk going back to QVGA. I'll try to get some shots from my magician if I can.

Wow, what a great idea. it looks beautiful. VJ you have to hide for Windows CE seekers. Great. When will it released? Come on: One Test version...
Hello VJ,
I like the theme/backgriund on these images.
Can you share it, our give a link where to get it?
Conchas: I love the woman's face.
Even more beautiful enlarged, and part of the motivation behind VJSihaya. I want proper wallpapers I can see!

UPDATE:
No, this projects not dead, just been extremely busy with work.
All menu items will be configurable!
Links and images will be uploaded shortly.
A flash file made from LG prada screenshots.
The clock moves and most of the menu works. i Havent completed it yet, and there are not animations yet, please try it out and tell me what you think, some of the links may not work on your phone as i may have different file names, if you do i will be more than happy to change. so just test on your phone and see what works and what doesnt.
UPDATE:
New startup screen
contacts now had pocketcm and icontact as a option
IMAGES :
LINK : http://www.mediafire.com/?50dy57fnnt1
Please note, put the Prada folder in your root file, and link startup.swf to a button, or put in your startup folder.
Please give feedback.
Its a fun little toy but isn't really useful at the moment. Can't do a single thing with anything that uses a dial pad on screen and none of the ok buttons work for me.
yeah its just a concept, but would people actually use this if i had to develop it more, with the new flash just around the corner nothing would be impossible, but i want to know if people would use it, that is its basic purpose if people do like it i will further it and make it able to send sms, and make calls etc...
i'd use it
thank you
it s beautifull, thank you good job
Keep on going
Nice "flash lite" programme.
Is anything configurable?
Only 1.2% CPU Usage, the cube from ByKa takes up to 70% of CPU Usage and drains the battery.
Continue the good work
Prada Interface
Can,t wait to see the fnal product. I like the dark theme you have going for it. If I were you I would give it a flash and style animatable icons and movable icons. I see where you are going though...

Not sure if I'd use it much (iPhone gui makes things way to easy to access ) but I would use it to show it off. Seems simple enough for others to fully rely on fully and is graphically pleasing.
if it will work with a magician, i would use it! love the simple graphics...
Oh yes, if it really worked I would use it. It looks great, much better than iPhone wannabe skins. I have to admit I do currently use an iPhone skin because it's simply usefull. I like the Prada style much better though.
a counter for missed calls and sms would be cool! the first screen reminds me at this:

very nice work...keep it up
this program kicks ass. so much more of an experience rather than just a skinned launcher. keep it up. *subscribed*
ok so i have started developing more. If youve tried it you would of noticed that the signal bar and the battery meter show your phones status, ive done the calculator, the dial pad and almost finished the send messeage and mms. You can either use the given on screen keyboard or your own, will keep you guys updated. Thanks for the support
wow, sleek'n sexy(i mean screens on 1st page)...
joshuawittstock,
the interface looks great. is there a way we can change the destination of the menu items . . . such as, contacts opens icontact or pocketcm.
ok , well almost done i linked menu's to different apps, for e.g when you open phone book it will show you a menu asking whether you would like to use icontact, pocket cm etc... are there any special "requests"? ( things that you would like to see in this project? ) im also planning todo a rss reader. thanks
hm... it should work with wm2003... what about a button for backlight? or some space for a weather plugin on the today screen?
can´t wait to try it!
dial pad
are you going to create a flash dial pad or are you going to link it to cprog? i can't wait for the final product.
extraducksauce, i am going to create a dialpad in flash identical to the one found on the LG prada. im also going to be release 'test' models to see how it works on everyones phone, i would like somebody with wm 2003 please try the first link out and tell me if it works... im having a bit of a problem with the writing a message. so i wont release that just yet.

That's WM6 running on there, with what looks like the HTC Cube. Check out the Wizard Mobile 6 forum for more info on running WM6 on yours.
Nope...
Hey Sam,
I just checked... This is not the cube. It's some other type of plugin and I just can't figure out which.
By the way, would you use this one or actually go with touchflo? I know it might be one big step up, but there's just something about too much "touching of the screen" that bothers me quite a bit...
Phil
Looks like the HTC Touchflo/cube, HTC home, HTC Audio Manager and some SPB thing (either mobile shell or pocketplus)?
tell me more...
Hey Draw,
I thought so too at first. But then I figured it's something else. So if it's not the cube or the touchflo, what can it be?
Damn, I'd really like to upgrade my 8125 to the best software. Aside from this one, which do you think is the best?
Phil
A lot, if not all, of what you see there can be mimicked with a combination of the following apps:
rlToday, see also their forums for many skin examples, and how to use this and the other two items i'll mention here...
mortscripts
sys2reg
While rlToday isn't being updated any more, the utilization of mortscripts led to the creation of sys2reg, which is essentially an entire library of mortscripts. Mortscripts can be called from within rlToday like any other program. Some people throw in Vijay555's tools as well... The mortscript library is capable of mimicking a lot of the dynamic information display seen in HTC's more interesting interfaces, as well as a lot of the stuff being done in the iPhone's home screen. Mimicking harder things like the animation associated with the touchflow cube is much harder, but I'm sure someone has made it work...
About touchflo...
Alright Myr,
This is where you might be able to help me out...
I decided to install touchflo on my wizard. I upgraded it and the rom to WM6 with IPL/SPL 2.26. I got the Touflo RUU G4 version and tried to install...
Unfortunately, it's giving me what I call the screen of death. That screen that has multicolored band and is a frozen image. I have to then pull the battery out and restart it. It then goes back to wm6.
I've erased all the extra programs on the phone, the htc home plugin, the 6 button plug-in and even the battery status plugin. Still a problem.
Now what do I do? By the way, I tried to install all the stuiff you mention in the last post, bu they sort of all failed... Now I'm focussing on Touchflo.
Phil

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Sorry, Phil. That's where you lost me. I'm still running my stock WM5, and only recently bothered unlocking the SPL so I can upgrade if something really tickles my fancy. To be honest (and to be consistent in my comments) I probably won't update to WM6, but I wanted the option, just in case. In your case, that's the change I would suspect the most. Try going back to your stock OS.
I run HTC Home on my wm5, and only had to sacrifice the weather page (I use a much preferred Mortplayer for music, and so didn't even count turning off the audio manager tab as a loss). With a shortcut in the app launcher to weather watcher, I only added one tap to getting my weather report, so "who cares?"
Just to illustrate my point about not needing to upgrade...here's my screen, with the four tabs I left active...
(I goofed one of the tabs, the app launcher...will fix later, or not at all)
very cool!
Hey Myr,
How'd you do that??? By the way, being the persistent person I am; I finally got touchflo working on my wm6 phone. It's weird that it needed was to hold the USB button (left softkey) on the phone during the screen of death... And then it proceeds to activate the installation. Don't ask, I just lucked that one!
Anyways, is that screen touchflo? Or it that 6-button htc home plugin? I had to sacrifice my battery status plugin... It seems to give me problems everytime I installed it on touchflo; any idea why?

It's the HTC Home plugin, but I've modified it using the HTC Home Customizer from pocketemu.com to only have 4 buttons, and to change the appearance a bit.
Below that is rlToday, a programmable UI that's running some neat tricks. For example, I can tap the antenna and toggle wifi, and tap the BT symbol to toggle that. Below that is just the stock appointment plugin.
BTW, there are some that have modified rlToday to act and look like the HTC Home plugin. It's a bit slower than the actual one, because it's reloading the home screen, but it's effective in WM5. The actual Home plugin works much faster though.
Thanx for the info...
Hey Myr.
Thanks a lot for the info. But I'm not going to try to add anything to my phone as of yet. Not until I can solve the calnot.exe / clocknot.exe / reg??? problem.
Simple, it's driving me nuts! It actually invades my screen, sometimes freezes my phone... I've hard reset my phone twice, reinstalled the touchflo / cube software and ried several patches. No luck... Do you know what can be done to remedy this problem?
Phil
Nope, sorry. Try searching these forums, especially the WM6 forum for Wizard. If no love, post your error messages/symptoms there (this is a generic wizard forum, and you've loaded wm6, so you really need to ask people who've done what you've done).
Just wondering if this keyboard is out, because I am very interested in the layout, etc. If so, can you guys direct me to this CAB.

You could probably achieve this with a skin on the PocketCM Keyboard. In fact I think it has been done. Search PocketCM Keyboard and there will be links to the skins in that thread.
The pic is from Gizmodo
And yes, that is not even a Windows Mobile device, let alone a smartphone. It is the LG Vu. Give up hope on someone being able to "direct you to this CAB," since it's not at all Windows Mobile compatible. However, I'm sure there are similar looking skins for PCMKeyboard. Check here.
Alternatively, Resco Keyboard has a skin competition going right now, with some nice looking skins entered so far. IIRC, "Gesta" looks pretty similar to this. Resco Keyboard is, however, not free.

Yes, the picture is from Gizmo. I don't think it is WM, but I thought perhaps someone could whip up this cab for MW. I did look into PCMkeyboard, and Resco. However, they are not like this at all.
You've checked all the skins? Even if they're not too similar, they're certainly nice enough. Personal preference, though. Maybe you could whip up this skin for us, then
I have the other ones....

This is interesting. I have not seen this keyboard.
Downloading it, and will test it out on my Touch. However, I will do more research and find a program that I could incorporate the keyboard layout like the one I posted.
Made a simple skin to mach this design to my old flash keyboard:

How many times do people have to say this! No warez! Keep this a good forum for developers! There are enough warez sites if you don't want to buy for something people worked hard for!

I actually tried TouchPal, but I have mixed feeling about the program. I just recently went back, and found that there is a newer version. I actually like this.
Here is the download link

Personally I can't recommend TouchPal highly enough. I guess if you are looking for a thumbpad style keyboard it won't work so well for you but it's the quickest and easiest way of getting typed data into a WM machine that I know of. And you can use it one handed. And you can 'train' it to predict all sorts of names, abbreviations, odd words, etc as you go along
I use touch pal .It was hard to get used to cause i like the full keyboard look. but once you get used to it, you can type pretty damn fast. but if the word isn't in it's library you have to spell the entire word by pushing the button then sliding left or right towards the letter on each button, then tell it to save the word. Still the best portrait mode keyboard imo.
I am sure that someone will be able to dump the ROM on the OP's original post. It is teh LG insight I think and just like they were able to rip out the today menu from the LG KS20, I am sure some amazing XDA member will do the same.
SPB Full Keyboard has been around a long time. Its not bad, it used to be one of the best, but I personally feel they now lag behind and there are much better virtual keyboards now. Plus SPB take up the ENTIRE screen, with a little view box.
PCM and TouchPAL are both great, I personally feel that TouchPAL is better. Either way, they are both free while SPB Full is not.
I was using TouchPal with my Atom Life and had been using it with my Touch Cruise, but I am actually liking the OEM keyboard that HTC has preinstalled on the Touch Cruise.
