"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,

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.

How can I disable the bottom bar with available tabs?
Description updated 08 Nov 2008
I stopped using the HTC Diamond dialer after I found out that it uses 10MB of memory (8MB on some improved ROMs like SwiftBL) at all times and is partly responsible for the device's laggy dialer performance.
The default WM dialer is an ugly grey but after finding this thread about QVGA skins I decided to make my own black skin. I'd like to thank the starter of that thread, Raceit, for helping me to get started with the image files and trying to fix them for me. Cheers dude!
I don't know how to make CABs yet so here's a zip. (EDIT: CAB available in post #3.) The orange colouring in the screenshots was part of my theme, not part of the skin.
To install, first disable the HTC dialer, see post #2 for more details.
If you would like to install the black 3D skin pictured below, the easiest method is to install the CAB provided by mic_888 in post #3. If you plan to use another skin that doesn't have a CAB then I advise installing the CAB anyway, then copying the images files from the ZIP archive into the Windows folder. There are 2 advantages of installing a CAB - firstly so that the image files are unprotected and easier to overwrite and secondly to make uninstallation easier. Just uninstall the CAB to remove whatever skin you are using and revert to standard the standard WM grey skin.
Hint: The Matrix, Flat Black and Sunset skins in this thread feature transparent buttons with different edge colours, feel free to use them with your own backgrounds. It's just a case of replacing the two png images with your own choice of portrait/landscape images
EDIT: Matrix and Flat Black skins added, see post #24 - CAB now added!
EDIT: Sunset skin added, see post #29 - CAB now added!
EDIT: Grey/White skin added, see post #71 - CAB now added!
EDIT: Dark TouchFlo skin by nhvoltagenh, see post #74-#75
Please also check out the skins by holdemdogg, starting at post #49!
Edit: More Skins, good ones too...
Ryon Skin
Noonski Diamondish Skin

Information about using the standard WM dialer
The main drawback of the standard WM dialer is that you cannot use it for video calling. Not an issue for me personally.
The advantages are that it saves almost 10MB of memory, even on ROMs with an optimized dialer, and gets rid of that slight lag when making or answering a call when you're not sure if it's actually going to do anything. A further benefit is that the answer and reject keys are much more difficult to press accidentally, removing the need for an additional locking program (Answerkeys Disabler, TouchLockPro, S2U2, etc.)
The HTC dialer can be disabled using DiamondTweak or Schaps Advanced Configuration Tool. You must also disable the HTC Volume Control if you wish to be able to adjust the volume in-call. The only working method that I know of is to use this CAB here.
Edit: It turns out that disabling the HTC dialer also loses the Bluetooth icon in the taskbar. I had a quick google and found this solution. I've tested it and it works fine on my Diamond. File attached below for convenience.
Edit 2: The developers of the bluetooth icon app have released a new version that's more compatible with VGA! See below.

Nice one, glad someone else finds it useful! Can you post any more information? I don't know where those files are.
If anyone has any requests for other colours or designs, let me know. Also please feel free to post your own designs here.
so all i do is run the cab and then 10 mb will be freed up? does this work on the sprint diamond?
Any idea how to undo disable HTC volume control if I plan to go back to default HTC dialer?
Is the cab changing some registry settings?

No you need to disable the HTC dialer and volume control too. See post #2 for details. I don't know enough about the differences in the sprint but I expect so.

Well done, I'd like to try this!
But, as I use skilty's TF3D Matrix theme with it's skinned dialer, I'd like to request a Matrix WM dialer skin, please. For personal use and to share it in the Matrix Trilogy theme resource thread.
Maybe you want to have a go at it? It would be great if you could design one with 'real' 1234567890 digits. Perhaps from one of the free Matrix fonts.. And it would be bonus if you could design another skin with 'actual' Matrix font digits, like these.
Or maybe you can just use skilty's dialer artwork? I could ask skilty. Anyway, TIA!
Thanks Davey101!
I'm waiting for that since a long time!!!

News flash!
The Matrix trilogy ended, lamely, 5 years ago!
I think it might be easiest to use transparent buttons with a simple green border so that the matrix background image is seen through the buttons. I'll see what I can come up with, unless you'd like to have a go?
I don't know how to change the button font, sorry.
I use Vito Winterface....
I have made these buttons but not centered!
(I take the same gif mesure of Black VGA Dialer skin: 86x56, 128x54, 142x56 and 180x54)
If somebody could help me...
THX!!!

Hi all,
Is anyone able to develope a Dialer skin that increases the numeric button sizes, There is a big bar of space at the top of the dialer that could be used for the other buttons we use, Or can we remove the call history list to increase the buttons?

I'm sure it is possible but that would involve replacing or editing the dialer software, not just the skin. The standard software has a fixed layout and we can replace the images used but not change their size or position.
It might be worth looking around for an alternative dialer...

Hello guys. This is a request thread. When you are at the home of the TF3D if you touch the numbers you go to the clock settings, however I would like to disable the action so it just do nothing.
Is it posible to do ??

Thankx!!

and when you try to see the appointments i just go to the clock properties... i just want to disable that action, is it posible via manila editing?? or its a deeper fix?
Me two. Can anyone help?
Agree. Me too. This is so boring. How could we block this clock when we touch it?
Please can anyone help?
Maybe the soft SSMAPa could fix this issue.

Yes it can, I changed the action to startup tomtom, but that is also annoying because you keep hitting it accidentaly...
SSMapA

Works like a charm...
No action when clicking on TF3D clock
Use SSMaPa app and link 'Time click' to PrgDoNothing.exe

Hi all
I tried to search, but i didnt find anything.
I dont like the "people" tab, where i have to scroll trough my favorite contacts. I would prefere, i could directly access to the favorites contact, without scrolling (like the programm tab or like the action screen).
But i still want to keep TF3D...
Do anyone has an idea or knows how to solve this issue?
Thx mates,
gt
i dont know how to solve this but this is what i did
i installed icontact and i have it maped on the right softkey at the home tab.
it opens very fast, looks nice and is very finger friendly. There is a favorites tab as well but it does take 2clicks (1open icontact, 2 click on favorites) so not exactly direct
hope this helps
Thx Giannis86
Sounds good for me. Still much better as the actual solution.
I will give it a try...
actually i do have an idea now..
i just spent some time modding the actionscreen skin. I think it would be possible to fix the shortcuts to a contact (i need to do some research on how to do this ofc)
so, IF this is possible, you could have 9 contacts showing at the same time (i suppose more is possible if you made the icons smaller but its a lengthy process)

there is a program i used some time ago while making a theme for battery status that enabled me to dial from shortcuts.
usage:
dial.exe xxxxxxxxxxx
but it would require some aditional tool to configure, or some text editing.

I would also prefer something like this. Instead of People just have a tab called "Contacts" and you can scroll up and down with the TF3d movability instead of going into the actual contacts program which is so slow.
What about to port people tab from m2d?

Any solution for this request?!
I've found the easiest solve to this is to use iContacts Burt Edition 6.4.5 and map it to the right or left softkey on the homescreen. Then get TF3D config and remove the People tab fom manilla. You can set favorites with photos in icontactBE and you can configure it to open directly to the favorites list first with the iContact Config. tool.

At the moment am using Resco Contact Manager. I think it's really not bad, but there are many thing included, it isnt just a replacement for the people tab.
Any way I can enlarge the text size? Ideally throughout all apps but especially in 'messaging' and the browser.
It's for a friend who has limited eyesight.
Many thanks.
SPARE PARTS
wow that was hard
Thanks man, just got it from marketplace but it doesn't work! It changes it for a moment but as soon as you click 'back' or 'home' it reverts to the usual text size...
Does anyone know of a way to make it 'stick'? Or an alternative application?
Thanks!
Iwould like to have this as well. Who developed "Spare Parts"?
You can find the author in 'market' ... it's too bad - I contacted him already, he just enabled an option that he found in the source by the sound of it, and doesn't know how it works. Can anyone help?
