Hey guys. I've been watching the development of this project for a while and they released a beta. Thought I'd let everybody know.

It's probably the best iPhone style skin/program I've seen yet. Check it out, I'm sure you won't be disappointed.
Ps. And no, I'm not affiliated with them. They've just got something solid. The alpha that was released works pretty well on my T-Mobile wing, with my wisbar advance and WAD skins still running in the background.

Wonder why they used Flash lite 2.1 instead of flash 7. I believe lite 2.1 will remove 7. Is that correct. I would not be willing to lose flash 7 for this. I did have this program running on my device though. Seemed ok. I liked itask better, and it has alot of the kinks worked out. The only problem with itask is, the developer won't make the screen look more like the iphone and I am not fond of the layout of the screen. I have requested if he could make one that looks like the iphone. He said its not hard for him to change the layout but he he just wont do it. Even offered to pay him for it. But he still refused. I think I will be sticking with my WAD iphone theme. It looks identical to the iphone.

I think if you can get A_C, Thundershadow14, tene, Slither2006 and some other developers in one to make the ultimate app interface that we will ever see.
Count Schaps in. He is working on such a project now too.
I'd love to be involved with the KILLER WinMo app too if possible. My strength is in UI/Graphics design, and I've recently released my VistaMobile theme to the masses. It's been downloaded a fair amount of times. Would be nice to create one "super-shell" without the need for Wisbar/FTouchFLO/S2U2/etc., but of course still having all of that functionality!
I know there's that "PointUI" app coming out, but I still think it could be better (it's in beta of course, so things may change)...
Hopefully 2008 will be the year that Windows Mobile puts the competition to sleep. Now we just need HTC to bring us the OMNI, or any dream hardware that goes above and beyond the Universal!
This is what I was thinking of doing. We have most of these apps in development we just need to add them all together. I know some of these apps are in different coding programs. I am sure we can find away to do it? I am a UI/Graphics design also but the more help is welcome b/c then each of us have a app to design but of course we all need to agree on the design too. I hope everyone that i mention in the first post is down on doing this. Also getting help from other developers too. if i didn't mention you that doesn't mean i don't want you to help i just don't want to mention everyone.
Thanks,
P.S.
OK PointUI pretty much took my idea on what i wanted to do with the finger scrolling!!! Darn Darn Darn. Anyway if we all put all our heads together I think we can come up with something unique.
Come on TENE, say something at least!!
and AC etc...
SPEAK OUT!
Don't forget two big developers from the early days Molski and Faria. started developing ROM's for the Wizard. And see Anichillus at www.anichillus.net/. he's working on a vista interface for the ppc.
A vista interface?! About time.I used to like eXPerience http://www.digitalexpedition.com/main/index.htm when I had the JAM. Maybe somebody could work on that app too....
I think we can all work on the PointUi project and make it the new interface for WM6.
It could be the ultime interface if we can replace the old interface of WM6.

My thought as well!
PointUI is simply amazing but it still needs a lot of development to be done.
SuperDevelopers > PointUi
PointUI - future app!
working together
well i need people to pm me if they are interested in doing this. i want to know if everyone wants to work together on this development. Now that pointui is out and winmo 7 just news release it maybe to late but i have seen lots of development of the new screen shots like schaps(today screen) , tenes(pocketcm) , a_c(s2u2) , thundershadow(PocketMelody) and slither(cube) that is in development but i cant mention everyone. if we can add this all in one Gui think this will be great app.
I just came across this and thought it was pretty interesting app for the iphone. Wanted to share it with the community just in case any of the developers in here are intending on working (or currently working on) a program launcher.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UFITXsB56Z4
Two items that caught my attention was:
1) Home screen plug-in like cLauncher / iLauncher but with finger friendly scrolling feature. Scrollable up or down like PocketCM or flickable pages like in PointUI clock/calendar/tasks.
2) Click on the edge and it has a Mac dock style launcher. Would be nice to have a button in the tray that when tapped could popup a launcher like this.
Or heck...why not have a Finger Friendly Start Menu?? What is the #1 application that all of us use on daily basis? Of course...our Start Menu.
As a website developer I like having people show me new website ideas. It helps inspire me. So just wanted to do the same when I come across something that might interest you Devs in here
Nice !. I wish we had something similar for wm6
Damn.. iPhone's UI is already awesome and they're making it even more awesome! When are we going to see such quality in WM's UIs? *sigh* The moment thay make an iPhone with 3.5G. I'm getting one!

u'll have to wait till 2009 or 2010 for it as its the release year of WM 7 a.k.a Touch
Yup kinda sad that all these iphone hackers/developers have a big advantage. They don't have to fix the OS like our Devs do. Our WM devs are handicapped in that way.
We do have a lot of great non-finger friendly apps out there, but just nice to have these iphone-esque apps for the quick tasks that shouldn't entail us taking out our stylist or use the slide out keyboard.
hi, i searched up 'iphone' in this forums and found a lot of iphone themes. i think the Torx-Development one and iFonz from ssj5trunks are the best. can you tell me which one looks and acts more like the iphone?
do you have to launch a program to make the theme work or does it start automatically hen i start the phone?
can you change the backgrounds of the themes?
thanks

I would have to agree with you. The animation when the icons are pressed is near identical to the iPhone's.
My opinion? Don't try to emulate the iphone on your PPC.
I own both an Iphone and an HTC Trinity, and i can tell you no program can come close to the incredible interface of the iphone. First and FOremost, the screen size, not to mention the smoothness of the animations.
So - either you get an iphone (Like I did), or you live with the "uglier" PPC GUI, but get advantage of much more functionality.
Just my 2 cents
Honestly, I used to be obsessed with making my phone look like the iPhone because I was planning to get one, but 3 days before it came out I got an 8525 instead because the iPhone was missing to many features that was important to me. So then I was skinning it to look that way, then it just got boring. I would reeally really reccomend SPB Mobile Shell 2. I really think its the best thing around, because it sex's up the hell out of Windows Mobile and makes it totally finger friendly and smooth. Plus with all the advances people are making customizing it, its becoming even better.
But if you absolutely had to, use iFonz.
can you change the keyboard and EVERYthing in itask to look like the iphone? or can i use resco keybaord and othe third arty plugins?
my family has an iphone, but im using windows mobile because of the more features
it started out as a little project for myself, and myself only.
i feel like the iphone ui is very intuitive and simple with a visual style thats pleasing.. theres nothing wrong with trying to mimic an easy to use interface.. and its to hold me over until att gets its network straight, and a 3g iphone is released.
thank you.

I am also waiting on that 3g iPhone. Was that, no video recording, and PTT that kept me from purchasing. I expect those features on the next iPhone release(except PTT) and I will be buying it then.

****...the Sony Ericsson Xperia is going to blow the iphone away
...and AT&T is going to carry it. Cha Ching
Looks nice but I suppose it will be a resource hog (for my Elf i mean )...
http://www.touchxperience.com/
I was about to post a link to that site and you beat me to it.
Resource hog or not, I think this has really great potential. Man, esp using Touch Diamond accelerometer (shake) to switch pages, even the TouchFlo3D tab!!

Man, i thought it loooked familiar
Since it's Schaps's baby I expect nothing but the best
I see lots of hype about this... and all due respect to Schaps, it looks to be an amazing interface, but I also imagine it to be a retail product when it comes out.
I'll certainly try it out, I just get annoyed in principle by advance hype... Show me the money

Even if I hesitated in the past to make a retail product, I have pleasure to tell you that TouchXperience UI will be 100% free!
But as you can imagine the long time I'm spending on this project has a price, even if I'm not asking a lot, so I count on donations to continue TouchXperience development and support.
I would need some suggestions or advises regarding user interface design of the custom event/profile manager which will be integrated in TouchXperience. Don't hesitate if you have some ideas:

Schaps we love you man.....from all of us..really..thank you
does it also run on touch cruise ?
Will this run on the Mogul?
LOL! I'll ask next, any plans for this to work on the Touch?
Great work Schaps, keep it up!
All the compatible phones you mentioned on the website are high-end phones... I guess people with tmobile wings are left in the dust 'cause our phones are too damn weak!
Hi Guys,
I hope everyone is well. I am new owner of an Xperia, and even more novice and realm of modding it.
This site is an immense resource and is probably a strong reason why people started loving their Xperias, despite the shortcomings. Anyway, excuse my ignorance, but I ran into this while being on YouTube:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=36YtZHXGCjA
My questions are:
1. Does anyone know what this is and how is this possible?
2. Has anyone tried using it or has access to whatever this entails?
Again, excuse my ignorance, should that be the case . Thank you for reading!
Fragger.
this looks like one of those chinese knock-offs. as far as i know, there isn't anything out yet for our real xperias that mimics an iphone's os
Ye don't bother it's a cheap knock off...I did a little research on them, they sell them on eBay shipped mainly from Asia. They don't have a slide out keyboard like the real X1.
They also do exactly the same ones in an iPhone shell. This guy does a pretty comical review of it, it uses the same operating system as the one from the video you posted by the looks of things. http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=B2tVE7qRLwk&feature=channel_page
Stay clear I'd say!!!
well ... this one HAD a slideout keyboard.
people uptop dont know
its called iFonz i don't have it on my xperia but its an app that replicates the iphone ui
makes sense ^^
i knew that tool but never ever installed it nor watched a video about it. if i want an iphone ... i'd bought one
ahh I didnt watch the whole video but I've seen those fake X1s on ebay before.
It's a real Xperia in the video running S2U2 and iFonz.

What you are looking for is iFonz, as others have already mentioned. For some screens and info on it, visit my blog at: http://xperiancer.blogspot.com/2009/01/ifonz-iphone-for-windows-mobile.html
Just that too bad no one's made a panel to launch iFonz yet.
That would be cool, a Panel... but since iFonz is not add-on or replacement of the Today screen but rather comes on top of it... i don't mind using it as is either.
Does Ifonz run? I thought it had no wvga support

Not WVGA support from the developers, yeah (as you can see from the bottom bar in landscape a little shy of the total width)... but it runs perfectly none-the-less.
