Claunch, guess what? a new versie 12.04! - Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General

I enter into the new version last night, 12.04
Not much changed but I want to let you all know
Update Description:
v12.04 (11-01-2008):
- Fixed : There is an undocumented issue with today screen plugins that causes startup display error.
Take a look here

hi, seems very cool ... is it possible to insert a today plugin in a claunch page?
Thank you
bye

Thank you.
Any chance of making cLaunch D-Pad friendly?
I mostly use finger, but on occasion, it'd be nice to be able to D-Pad down to cLaunch, then over to the icon I want...

The Better Cube

"Don`t" Forget the HTC Cube, but I made this with "UltimateLaunch". It rotates smooth every kind of screen, icon or pluginin in a cube.
Looks nice. Can we try it? Any demo?
Can you put photo speed dials like htc cube?

Looks amazing, can it have multiple plugins per cube, and if so when/where can we get it.
Ultimate Iphone Cube
I made it with the new "ultimatetaunch" from germany, this is the first launcher with touchflow.

it can do speedial, an you can add multiple plugins in each tab(Sides of the cube). The cube can have hundreds of sides. It IS the ULTIMATE Launch.
I made this special iphone-version for everyone and you can upload all icons and more here: http://www.ppc-welt.info/community/showpost.php?p=1029815&postcount=459
There ist a full working demo-version of ultimatelaunch and you can buy it for 10 Euro:http://pocketland.de/39534/UltimateLaunch.html?SID=d1c64539375a8f367ebbea8474956206
UltimateLaunch is an app that can be downloaded. You may register but may also trial it for free, with no time limit nor feature limit. Merely a "not registered" writing here and there.
It's extremely configuration and you can have multiple plugins per cube as well as variable numbers of sides for the cube.
It is pretty fast and smooth no doubt, and is very close to replacing HTC Cube.
How do you do photo speed dial?

Ok I see, this is the UltimateLauncher program, sorry I misunderstood. Do you or anyone else have any idea if it is possible to have more than one Plugin per cube, right now I have SPB Weather but it only takes up a small portion and I would like to add more smaller plugins to fill that cube instead of making more cubes for small plugins (1-2 lines)???

Yes, you can use the combine function to add more than one plugin per cube.
This is indeed a great plugin. It made me disable my cube, task bar and softkey bar.
Herehttp://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1914197&postcount=42 is a detailed description of my today screen.
Photo Dialer is not problem at all. A few layers and gradients in gimp and you can have a few faces on glassy buttons as a speed dialer.
Cheers,
nc.
The Ultimate Launch is a blessing for the screensize-impared treos. Ahh... finially the scrollbar is gone. Instead of just having it scroll down, I just made the bottom half of the screen the ultimatelaunch and rotate it out. Looks a-m-a-z-i-n-g
Wow nc that's some beautiful interface.
Thanks for sharing!
Still very interested in how to make the photo dialer though, since I'm currently using SPB pocket plus for it, and that's ugly...

Photo dialling is a little tricky but there are a few ways to achieve it.
You need to change the format of your photos to .ico with a good photoshop tool - GIMP is a good freeware tool to achieve this (make sure you reduce the size of the photo to icon size say 60x60).
Then you need to link a program to do the ringing. Again there are a few options around:
1) cprog.exe -url tel: 12345678910 (this takes you to an editably box where you can change the number before dialling)
2) vijay555's dialler (which will automatically dial the conacts number)
3) gotocontact (which will take you to the default contacts page and give you options to ring mobile/home/business or send a text message).
It is a little tricky, but luckily I don't change my friends too often!
I have to agree that this is great software. I have stopped using cube launchers - as this is always running, is totally customisable and low on memory.
Thanks Lynehammike for the clarifications!
I don't change my friends often either so I'll give your options a go.
Thanks so much since I've been trying for quite awhile to figure out how to do this!
Btw, what's "gotocontact"?
Bloody hell, thanks mate! I kept wondering what the combine was for and found it strange that I could not add more than one plugin.

Program for taskbar htc touch

Hey everyone, I'm trying to find a program for the htc touch that will let me switch between programs on my taskbar like on a normal desktop pc.
I hope one of you knows what I mean
either only an icon that I can click or let it be rectangular buttons, whichever is fine.
Thanks everyone

I guess WkTASK could be the right for you:
http://soft.photoracer.net/docs/wktask_en.html
Thanks bro, I found that also an hour ago, it's exactly what I wanted
search for 'alt+tab' on this site and you will find another one that is exactly like the PC type Alt+tab switcher. You can assign it to a hardware button.

Manila 2d almost in landscape, need one more thing...

Hey guys,
Ive been working very hard at getting Manila2d to work in landscape (when you flip out the keyboard while manila2d is active then it will automatically switch today plugins)
this is the last piece of the puzzle: i need a today plugin that works in landscape and that can be skinned to look like TOuchflo 3d in landscape (basically skinnable shortcuts)
if i get it working ill release a .cab!
thanks guys
something like RLtoday maybee???
Very curious how it looks in landscape on my Kaiser

thanks for the suggestion mate.
however after Googling it i saw that it was more than just a few shortcuts, even though it could easly be skinned. can you have it where it only displays shortcuts? if yes, then i will definitely try it out
recommend the landscape same as HTC touchpro after flip out keyboard
http://www.htc.com/www/product/touchpro/overview.html
yes, thats exactly how i want to skin it.
does anyone have any othersuggestions for programs that might work for this?

If you want it like that maybee something like mortbuttons is a better option...
Don't know if it's easy to skin..
thanks again man
i just downloaded mortbuttons and it appears that its only a standalone applicationa dn not actually a today plugin, but i think im missing something.
ok: can a developer whip up someting really small thats just a today plugin thats made for landscape that looks and acts like the touch pro's landscape?
thanks
I could make an rlToday skin super fast for ya. Tonight even. QVGA I assume? I'll leave the purdy graphics to you, I'll just make a template. How's that sound?
I would focus on Touch Dual and Action Screen.
When you sliding the keyboard of Touch Dual - the action screen starting up. Maybe something similar is done on Touch Pro.
Cheers,
Chris

1stly : the wasy u guys help each other out - like a family - I LUV DAT...!! 2ndly I SSSOOO LUV DIS FORUM...!!! As soon as I have cleared my overdraft am donating. Dyin with anticipation for TF3D to arrive.
Nearly done, but it's 3am here in Aus I'm going to hit the sack, and will upload the completed one tomorrow.
It's based entirely on rlToday, and respects rlToday's application shortcut menu [so all customisation of app names and links can be done without touching XML ]. Nothing fancy, no animations, but it'll work.
Edit:
That's a lie. My trickery to over-ride what I was going for didn't work, so to edit the shortcuts you'll have to dive into XML for now, until I can find a way around it
are youy actualy working on manila2d or skining some other app that looks like it?
What about HTC HOME? that works in landscape
Ask APBilbo. He made something similar with ThrottleLauncher in landscape.
Any news on the landscape???...my kaiser is screaming for it
i am close on landscape look at the pictures below
I've got my somewhat finished rlToday skin here if you'd like me to upload it. All it needs is the XML to be changed to link to whatever apps you want, and change the icons to whatever you want.
Give me a yell if you still need it.
what about today life? Not sure if thats what your looking for.

Posting before reading i should now better.
MortButtons?!
You can either bring up a skinned Menu or the Buttons Today Pugin.
Not sure if that's what your after.
But it would be drawn to the screen much faster then RL.

I 2nd the motion for HTC Home, its easy to use, elegant, and much more useful than a simple action screen. If HTC Home isn't the OP's preference, can we have a second version of the program that supports HTC Home?

Good alarm alternative for wm ?

The alarm clock that comes on the HD is not great eh?
Anyone recommend me a decent alarm clock for the HD?
I use the freeware GSALARM from GreenSoft. Custom sounds, snooze function etc. - is perfect for me!
Hav you a link, I'm having trouble locating it on google

the best for me is G-Alarm from Ageye

why is that funny?
wow...I was just smiling
cradle alarm is a good alternative.
SPB TIme is good because you can move alarms around the clock by dragging to change times and has a bunch of features like stop watches, etc.
Ive used so far the standard alarm app included with winmo. But its very annoying that when its alert, i only see small icon in info bar at the top of the screen, and its very hard to hit that and then disable the alarm when ur sleepy!
Does anyone knows plugin to the standard alarm, or a full application that lets u close the alert by simply turning the phone screen side down? Or a program that at least shows the alert in the screen, and having a big button to close it.
Edit: Never mind! The G-alarm looks like just what i described!

You download the cab on the link, then install it on the same place (ie if you G-alarm is in device, then also install the skin cab on device. After that , go to option and choose that skin.
..... ^_^ i have already set the downloaded skin few days ago ...... but i want to create the graphics files for a new nice one , but i don't know the next step : transform my graphic files to make a skin cab ..... that's the point !!!

Same experience with the standard alarm app here, but I think it's the touchflo 3d interface that messes up the alarm on my touch hd. With touchflo 3d disabled the standard alarm app is able to provide much more feedback and control. Could this be a touchflo 3d error?

TF3D AND the standard today screen

ok, i'm looking to be able to switch between tf3d and the standard today screen using panels.
from what i've read, daran's new tf3d b3 cab doesn't work as a panel like the b2 did. has anyone found a way to get it to work ? is there any way to get the standard today screen to work as a panel ? has anyone tested mtoday to see if that works ?
there must be a solution somewhere ?
thanks in advance guys ...
using Second Today as Panel will do

hi there,
i am using "second Today" as a panel and it works fine. Only Problem is, that the TF3D B3 has to be on the Homescreen, it won't start on the Second Today Panel, but mY Spb Diary starts on the Second Today Panel allright... !!!!!!!!
SotB
TFDetacher - Search for it - You can switch between TF and today screen.
excellent - thank-you both for taking the time to reply.
I`m a little confussed, because you don`t know this progs. I read it in the treads every time.
are they in x1 threads or general xda threads ?
i tend to stick to the x1 forums.
thanks again for your assistance ...

i'm really looking to have either tf3d2 or the today screen as a panel so that i just easily switch between them ...
i had a look at second today but it didn't seem to do what i was looking for ...
