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

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",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Tried to attach it to the "pocket theme manager 2" tsk theme, but that peticular software doesnt work in WM6.1
Get it here, source-code included: http://rapidshare.de/files/39815429/diamond_clock.zip.html

Yep.
It seems to be skipping 1 sec every 16 secs, at least what I am seeing.

I'm currently working on changing it from flash lite to just a today screen plugin I'd love to use your clock if thats ok, also I'll make a plugin for just the clock

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

[Wisbar] Zifi (goes great with touchflo)

Update: Platina version released!
I'm sure most of you know the application called Wisbar, it allows you to skin your entire PDA.
I've just released a skin, and tough normally I wouldn't post that here, I thought you might want to know because it blends so nicely with Touchflo.

Easily solved:
Go to wisbar settings, press Taskbar, go to the 'Other' tab, and UNcheck 'The network icon uses the default icon' (aswell as the phone icon and optionally the notification icon)
Good luck with it, and thanks for the kind comments (thought i would get flamed or whatever for posting crap in this forum)

really like the theme.....as for further, next or future releases, it would be great if it was more finger friendly.
nice work
Also: i can't access the default task manager from the top right of the home screen(TF3D).

Wisbar isnt ment to be that finger friendly (yet), however you can enable an option to make the icons bigger then pressed, exactly the way touchflo does

i really love your theme but its a shame that wisbar is so finger unfriendly...
i deinstalled it with a tear in my eye

if been trying to download the file from your site tryed about six times always hangs halfway through the download :c dont know if its my pc or your server :s
anyway would realy appriciate if someone could mirror the file...
any takers

I think it works but you have to press the icon at the very left side of it.
It's a small bug in Wisbar.

[APP][CAB][QVGA]HTC Rhodium Menu Enhancement-Replacement [04-10-09]

Well, I saw all those QVGA Rhodium Menu ports popping up, but each of them had SOME issue or another. Some had the graphics messed up, others had text wrapping issues. SO, I decided to make my own cab and stuff. Let me know if it works for anyone else. I ported the graphics myself, and tweaked the settings from original.

Thanks Stick!,
I myself am trying to get as much Rhodium apps as possible. I don't have experience in programing, but some in Photoshop etc.
What are the possibilities in porting the SMS and Contact apps from the Rhodium?
Paul

It will only work with build>21000 like with the VGA-version, right?

its not working in elfin
i have 21000 and above
wats the reason behind it

Does not work
Hi
I've just updated my ROM to Hyperdragon IV 10th April and this CAB won't install. It says installation unsuccessful as the software was intended for another device.
Cheers
Andrew

thanks mate, will download this...been looking for an addon like this to add to ROMS that dont have it cooked in...i'm over in the kaiser forum so i'll check this out and report back...
easy,
driz

Wow you fixed the Text wrapping works perfect thanks for this

IT CAN'T BE INSTALL IN HERMES 6.5 21202-THE SAME NOTE:IT UNSUCCESSFULL INSTALL-BUT I HAS USED A ROOM 21198 JOSH HAS MENU ENHANCEMENT IN ROOM. IT SMOOTH BUT I DON'T LIKE IT AS DEFAULT MENU OF WIN 6.5

For those of you having installation unsuccessful errors, I changed a few things and repackaged the cab. Try it again, and see if it works. ^_^

No, the text wrapping was fixed in a .dll by someone else, actually.

Hi There,
It installs fine on my Herald using the JustStable ROM from Ivanmmj (21040).
But It does not work.
I did a soft and a hard reboot.
But no luck
Chongie

the new version is still not working on my elfin

Odd, I've tested this on a Vogue and a Kaiser, and it worked on both. I changed a few things around again. Sorry to hear that it's not working for you guys. Try ti again, i guess. : /

From what I've read, you need TF3D for the SMS app to work. I don't know about the contacts app, but I guess we'll just have to see. I would be awesome if someone released a non TF3D release of those apps. (My knowledge mainly remains in Photoshop, and then some coding, so I'm almost in the same boat as you, haha.)

Sorry was that you who fixed it i have tested several version with so called fixed dll's but this is the first to work well only messes up on long file names so the problem is still there just made better

unable to get this to work on my kaiser, i'm running build 21139...it will install but nothing happens after that, i did soft reset after install, but still the same ol menus...

shucks

That is wierd, cause i thought i might be a "skin" of some sort in those apps, heck I'd map it to the soft button. Oh well.... Wasn't there a TF3D for ELFin being worked on.
PS-Place this app in th thread i made about Rhodium apps, let see how many we can get. its about a day old thread.
Paul

Other than the kais name and some screen porting i dont see anything changed Has this worked on anyones device yet? Im going to see what i can come up with but im a little lost. I dont see any reg entries changed at all. This is where we need help as well as the screen size... I will see whats up. Mighta just overlooked something

Working on my Kaiser running build 21040. I had to enable the "Notification Manager" in services though.

Is there a registry setting to disable the Rhodium Menu Enhancement?
I'm using one of AtOmAng's ROMs which has this menu built in, but I prefer using the classic menu's

Vista Black Buttons.

Well, after installing photoshop i decided to give a stab at my own start menu buttons and heres what i came up with.. i was super surprised at how well they turned out, soooo lol.. here you go

Great!
That looks amazing. Much better than the default round Background.

Very nice! I made 2 .cabs of these so you don't have to manually copy them into \Windows. In addition, you can uninstall it, then reset to revert to the old softkeys.
Vistabuttons.cab includes both the softkeys and the start menu select mod, while Vistabuttons2.cab contains only softkeys, and not the start menu select mod. And to my knowledge, this will not work on a (W)VGA device, so don't install if that's the case. BTW, all credit goes to the OP.

The icon for the lock on your phone has nothing to do with the buttons. Its the rom. I cooked these buttons in with my rom and it works fine... i see the lock icon. And yea i could make these transparent.

yeah the screwed up buttons is a rom issue, I had this happening and rebuilt my kitchen, recooked and it's all good now...

Does anyone want this in any other colors.

[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.)

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
