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

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:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}

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.

Flash Lite Diamond

I'm working on a flashlite diamond layout, so far this is what i've got. The signal and battery status up top should both work and the icons on the bottom scroll when you click on the far right one. Hopefully I'll be adding some more functionality to it soon. Please leave any comments or suggestions. So far only tested on the wing and you need flash lite installed.
Update: New icons, finger scrolling
Working on a way to disable the right click while its open, also soon an update with clock
http://cid-11fcacbb36b0b63f.skydrive.live.com/self.aspx/Public/phone%20v1.4.swf

Sweet!! give us MORE please

thanks for making a flashlite version of the diamond interface. its a good beginning but i'd like to scroll the icons with a finger move instead of tapping the last icon. also the icons should have a higer resolution in the future.
keep up good work!

also, looks great and all, but will you eventually make the icons look EXACTLY like the diamond's?

Looks nice, if you want any help on the graphics just send me a pm.

New update!!!

fast update! unfortunately i cant open the swf anymore.. It says: check for valid SWF or valid SVG failed, aborting attempt to load content.
i hope you can fix this problem.
is the 22kb filesize correct?
EDIT: the correct filesize is 14.5kb i selected "save file as" the frist time. you must download the swf by clicking on the link instead of savefile as.

Made a small flash clock to resemble the Diamond with a animation like it:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",

This clock as a today plugin would be sick! Looking forward to it

The Minute-Counter has the same prob as the second-counter!
jumps from 14 to 16...
but awsome work!

I used POCKET THEME MANAGER 2 in my wm2003 pocket pc, but it doesnt work so good in WM6, so i'm now using it with FLASHTHEMES...
On the other hand, the FLASHTHEMES generator doens work good with vista, so im having some problems creating a normal black TSK to use it with, lol...
btw, just tested it and the seconds jump from 2 and 2 on my htc touch dual, thats a slow ystem problem...

I'm at work right now, but when I get home I'm planning on trying .netcf to make a todayscreen plugin

Tried that... apparently getting the swiping menu is easy but integrating the Phonebook and SMS is giving me some problems. I needed someone to code the native C dll files to retrieve Contacts and SMS messages and then I can integrate it into my program...

slow system problem?
i have a kaiser and my pc is a core2duo 3ghz, 3gb ram ...i don't think its too less performance ^^

hey again
there's a problem with the clock
the hours counter is nt moving
hope this will go into a gr8 today plugin

So here's what i'm thinking about... The omnia home screen called : "Omnia Widget" was quite "rigid" because we can't add things or customize it, but it was very interesting because it was using flash, and it allows lot of things such as animation or easy coding... So why don't we use it to customize ?
When i found those 2 files "GrandP.swf" and "GrandL.swf" in omnia's rom immediately i decided to decompile them... I found a lot of informations... and i tried to make my own swf. And it works !
But here's the problem :
first, there are some missing/unoperating functions (loadVars, loadMovie, FSCommand:launch, getTime etc...)
second, i couldn't decompile everything... and samsung uses fonctions to load informations for windows mobile ( exa: what song is played, is there any missing cal, new mail, etc...)
Right now, the only functions i can use are : launching different programs (calendar, main menu, opera, etc)
So if you are interesting in, i need help to decompile, and uses those missing functions !

Hey Great Work!
Looks like u're getting somewhere man with a new widget for OMNIA!
Too bad i can't help out much with these programming stuff...
Please keep up the good work and keep us updated on ur work!
Cheers!

Looks great! Let's see what else can be done...

nice work
and looks nice

Looks AWESOME, how did you customize your screen SO MUCH using the omnia widgets? And how did you get multiple today screens? This has SO MUCH potential.
Just get a method to add/change widgets and you have one of the best customizing software in the making! Please continue and pursue devolopments, waiting for my omnia...
(Btw, change the background for the XPERIA homescreen)
Akshay

Also, it would be great if you could integrate twolf's widgets into that. He has created some amazing flash widgets, I swear I would help, but I know absolutely nothing about this. So, twolf and other experts! Lets make this happen and help...
(As far as I know, omnia widgets can now also be installed on other ppc's as well, so its usefull not only for omnia, but as a universal app)
Akshay

Flash Widgets
I too have decompiled the GrandP.swf and i am working on adding widgets to it.
I have already changed some aspects of the file one of which was just changing the size of the analoge clock to half its original size to not too intrusive.
I have been looking through the actionscript to see how it interacts with windows mobile and if it uses any libaries.
One idea i am toying with is a directory with widget swf's in from which the GrandP will load them from .. instead of being contained within the flash file itself.
I will post my finding as well .. I find them
Matt

Very nice work and looks nice
Thanks

Great!I'm studying how I can launch a program in Omnia Widget...
I've tried lots of times like this:
on (press) {
fscommand("launch", "fexplore.exe");
}
but it doesn't work...why?
&I think we might find more information of the flash function in WidgetIdle.dll...

But this is api-specific for my flash player.

Great works!And i'm looking for a flash today plugin which can launch programs and get system infomation(missed call,message etc.)...does flash player 7 support these features?or do i have to install other host programs to load the flash file?

Hmmmm, Throttle Launcher and FEWidgets already do that.
But I was convinced that so did the app on this thread. :/
I think any version of flash will do, but 7 has less memory bugs and is wm200-compatible...

[IDEA][6.5] Start menu Grid

Hello,
The Hexagon grid in WM 6.5 I think is very disorganized. So my idea is to change the grid of the start menu.
Iv'e made a image in paint to show my idea. (sorry for the crappy ms paint work.)

"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",

Can some one realize this? I would love to see this on my diamond.
Thanks in advance!

I think you need to modify the StartMenu_GridScene_480x640.cpr. Open it with notepad and modify it.

this is desire of many people...
BUT it is not solved in present time...
If you modify it in your *.cpr-file (HexagonGrid="TRUE" to HexagonGrid="FALSE"), your start menu will cease to work

I have tried some times ago, but with no luck!
ope someone could make it work!

I read somewhere that it's (nearly) impossible to do it, the script that's responsible for the hexagon layout is hidden in a DLL.

As far as I know, a reasonable compromise is if you use the folderview.exe from HTC (it's usually there if touchflo is installed).

I like the idea. It will be better if the start menu can organize by page so that same catagory of apps can group together...

i think it would be easier if it is possible, pushing the start button to open up a new program with shortcuts, similar to that. Correct me if i m wrong.

hi, i like that Start menu Grid. I'm using HTC imagio and that Start menu is in my ship rom but when i flashed a customed rom, there isnt that start menu grid anymore. Hope someone can improve that

+1
I like that idea, in fact I was asking about it in HD2 section - but no luck
I also tried to modify the .crp but no luck either.
Would be really nice to have it!

still no one ?...

I really hope a developer sees this. We see allot of start menu modifications like lists. But i havent seen this normal grid menu!

Until it's developped (if so) you all can use "iPhone Today" instead. Also it's faster/smoother than WM Startmenu.

Also, some way to scroll horizontally
I was thinking of the same idea... and with the ability to scroll horizontally...this would exactly look like the iPhone...
If this can be worked out by some expert chef.... we won't need any application to give it a iPhone like feel.....
Also, i think the earlier ROM's had horizontally aligned programs.... so its not new... just that it needs to be implemented in newer ROMs.
I am very much interested in this .....

It will be good if it can catagorize the pages (with header). With that we choose to remove the sense to save ~30m of memory.

Bump, anyone?

Definately interested in this. What I think would be better is a sense version of the start menu to totally hide the win mo look. It should look just like the program screen when you tap on a quick link to choose an ap from the program screen. Cookie should feature a cookie start menu into cookies home tab 1.81

[APP][2010/07/02]AppGrouper, a simple catagorised app launcher

Hi!
I'm a longtime lurker, ever since I got my Touch HD when it first came out and I NEEDED to have an english rom instead of a dutch one. Thanks to this place, my phone runs exactly how I want it to (most of the time ).
Except for a decent app launcher. I HATE the win6/6.1 scrollist ones, allthough the startmenu after that sucked a little less. I liked the yotacenter launcher, but in the end I just ran out of space and had to hit the "all apps" button too often and scroll through a huge list.
So I wrote my own in c# under .net 3.5.
And, seeing as I got all my tweaks and fixes from you guys, I thought I should give something back; in essence a quick and dirty app launcher which does exactly what I want: organise the programs I use the most.
It's a catagory per page, has menu, contextmenu and top-scroll-bar driven UI and you can add your own background:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I wrote it to be as device independant as I knew how, but I've really only tested it on my Touch HD1, so I'm really curious as to how it runs "in the wild" (or even on any other HD ). To save some effort, I've just packaged the .exe, which should run from any location. If it doesn't, \Program Files\AppGrouper\ should do it.
It should come with a default background and an icon...for this initial release [call it a beta] I didn't create a cab, so you'll have to copy/edit an existing .lnk file to get the program to show up in the windows\startmenu\ .lnk files so you can use a launcher to launch my launcher (yeah, I get the irony ), or just start the app from the exe.
Anyway, as I said this is the first application I'm releasing to the public, so please give me some feedback I have no idea what "unknown unknowns" this app'll run into on different machines than my emulator and my own Touch HD. The only deletion the program can do is to a specifically named .xml file it generates itself, so it should be safe enough
PS: as I was entering the tags to this post, I realised that this type of software could have been made and released many times: I've only used MS's launcher and the yotacenter one, so any ideas and/or other similarities to other launchers is coincidence and a case of simultanious devellopment (or in my case, retarded devellopment ). Again, any feedback is appreciated, from bugs to implementation to "you've totally ripped off x!". 'Cause I didn't, but I'd like to know about x
Anyway, I hope someone can use this!

Nice apps. The Title Folder box ought be longer to fit the text

Hehe
Ok, so I guess I'll have to set up an auto resize routine for the textsize and the textbox ... check back in a day or two
BTW, what device did you use this on? I'm curious to know if the program works correctly on devices other than touch hd's, too.

Thanks for sharing!

I think mortbutton can do better than this
Ok app. thanks for sharing
By default can you pick up start menu and folder under it as group?
Else I think mortbutton can do far better job than your program. + .netcf 3.5 requirment

Thanks for sharing it. Few things I noticed
while trying to add an to a folder a drop down menu reveal 3 options - the first one is to add an app, what is the second one? it is blank on my tp2?
after running an app it stays in memory. is this how you designed it? i would prefer if it closed after running an app
finally, can you list here launchers that you came across that are standalone apps, meaning they do not sit in memory or eat CPU. i am looking for something like that with folders/tabs like yours and self-close after use.

thanks for sharing. i have one single question. i have installed it on my herald, but i cannot add more then one app to a group. am i missing something?

Sweet launcher! Thank U
I like your application!
As being an anti manila user Until now I was addicted to Program Finder plugin (attached) running on the Today Screen. Unfortunately the Today Screen does not have the SIP toggle in the bottom bar plus sometimes the Today Screen needs a refresh, due to Program Finder being an very old program; its messing up the Today Screen.
Therefore I searched the whole internet and finally after searching for 1 year I found [attachment]ToggleInputPanel.exe[attachment]. I'm executing programs via icons by running Easy Today Launcher.
Your application is a welcome alternative, thanx again! o/~
