Check out this link for TMobile's Official WinMobile6 release. On the today screen there is an awesome looking media player plugin and I was wondering what plugin is that and where do I get it?
seems to be not for us, not for WM5/6 PRO.
Looks nice. If smartphone can use it, PDA phone can use it.. I think. Wait til someone rip it off.. doesnt seems like anything I've known. AFAIK, there are two media player plugin for Today screen.. both has some problems.. like one of them are not sync with the media player.. and another one... ... can't remember. One of them is from SPB or SHxx .. one is free ware, but they don't look like what youve shown.
I'm pretty sure that I saw a plug in like the one showed while searching for a dialpad for the TyTN...but I'm realy sorry I don't remember where...
It was a today plug in that controls the WM player...it display the title of the song and some control buttons too.
If I find the place will report back to you...

I do not think it works for wm6
do u mean i wm6 dash rom version or the version in my post? the one in my post is tested on a cingular 8525 running black 2.5 cingular and works no prob.
SPB has a similar plug in. its called, "Spb Pocket Plus Plugin - ToPlay -WMP 10 Controller"
hmm.. well the ToPlay -WMP 10 Controller hasnt ever worked on my hermes..
it just crashes on boot, and the whole SPB app. stops working.. havent done anything about it thou.. it doesnt really bother me.. since i can just minimize the media player and bring it up again..
does anyone else have this problem?
Looks like it's for the Dash.

PocketMusic includes a similar Today plugin. Not sure though if you get the plugin with the free version. I bought the commercial version.
Hi,
I am still a bit confused about whether to get the Xperia X1 or the Touch HD. One concern is the possibility to show appointments on a today screen without getting rid of the user interface (i.e., I do not want to shut down or remove TouchFLO3D).
What I need is a possibility to show appointments not only for today, but for a user defined timeframe - like 1 week or a couple of days - in advance. In fact, right now I use a combination of the HTC homescreen with TodayAgenda 1.5 on my WM6 device. I like to switch on the device and see the actual time/date and all upcoming appointments without having to switch to a today screen, i.e. immediately. However, I am looking for a solution to integrate this into TouchFLO. I know that it is possible to have the "normal" today screen on HTC TouchFLO3D devices and use TodayAgenda.
Is this possible with TouchFLO3D on the Touch HD? (I expect that with such a screen size it should be possible to show many appointments without scrolling ...)
Eriol
Yeah man.. I would like to know if that is possible as wel.. on my diamond with SkippyCentraal ROM(NLD)
I did some tweaking with the software from here, but did not find a sollution yet on how to get more than 1 appointment showing on the today screen with Touchflow on..
Wow, thats sad ... if we cannot show appointments in TouchFlo3D
I just cannot believe this kind of limitation ...
I own Kaiser and I have never use TouchFlo ...
I also used TodayAgenda 1.5 and loved it on my previous phone. It was the bast app ever (for me) to be able to see all my appointments for next 30 days as soon as I switch the phone on. Shame we can't combine this on touchflo 3d as I dont want to disable it as it is what makes it different to other win mo devices.
Come on community. Let's crack it!
personally i dont like touch3d at all, it's slow, i prefer to use ultimate launch to have 2 or 3 today screen, and u can scroll each one using ur finger for example: i have 3 screens, one for today, with time and day, one for appointment(using agenda) , with any number of appointments u want to display in the screen!!!, one for applications icons( iphone style arrangement).
hope this may help!

If you tweak it (and maybe change to another ROM), it will work perfect for 95% (speed is good)
But the not showing of appointments (only 1) is sad... and there has to be some of u super tweaking guys who can fix this
X1 Panel allow u to customize the # of appointment showing on the panel
not sure if Touch 3D on HD is able to do so.
Well, maybe someone who has already got the HD can tell us ... this is really crucial to me. In the Raphael forum someone suggested to de-install TouchFlo3D ... that is exactly what I do NOT want to do, because I like TouchFlo3D otherwise.
In fact, HD screen should be big enough to show everything AND the upcoming appointments for the next 9 days or so ... Isn't there someone to figure out?
With Xperia X1 you can easily switch to a today screen that shows these appointments, you can even install TodayAgenda on the original today screen, without the need of removing the panel functionality.
There is an application called SecondToday that adds a 2nd today screen and is reported to work well with Touch Diamond. I wonder if this would be a suitable solution for Touch HD as well ...???
Eriol
I think this has been requested from the beginning of touchflo3d. I cant belive that HTC can fix this. I use the calendar every day and think its one of the major apps in WM. But HTC keep ignoring the calendar, there isnt even a tab for the calendar in touchflo3d.
If anyone know a nice integrated calendarsolution in tochflo3d I am very intrested.
Is this TouchFlo 3D cannot be disabled? Or replaced?
Hi folks
I think its about time for my first post in this forum.
Since HTC catched my attention with the HTC Touch Diamond I often visited this forum. Now I finally decided to purchase a HTC device too. I will go, like many of you, for the HTC Touch HD.
But enough of OT chat...!
As MEE I am also looking for a solution to display more appointments on the homesreen or in a new TouchFlow tab (if passoble).

No, unfortunately not. The Touch HD manual sais (on p. 67): One all-day appointment and up to two timed
appointments can be displayed. Touch this area to create, edit or view an
appointment. (See “Calendar” in Chapter 12 for details.)
This is not at all sufficient!

A Today Screen clone would be one option to gain access to today info, see here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=401907
But with our large HD screen space more flexible plugin spaces, for example x number of appointments, would be prefered.

Definitely - I agree. But is it possible to add plugins into TouchFlo3D? X1's panels are rather independent, so you can add or delete them like you want to. In TouchFlo3D, the question is whether you are bound to what you have - or whether you are flexible as with the X1. I read in a X1 thread that they even think to add TouchFlo3d as a panel!
I hope we (or HTC: do you hear us???) finds a solution without the need of porting X1's OS to the Touch HD.

I would prefer a solution without the panels. The issue (showing appointments) is rather simple compared to installing the whole panel app to Touch HD. The latter might be a good project, but generally I hope we find a solution with less impact on the phone (I will use a company device, and I know that our IT guys will attack me if I start installing different ROM's or lots of programs that are not supported).
Eriol
As a suggestion, is there any way to interface Spb into TF3D? Spb shows LOTS of forthcoming appointments, and its Today screen is so programmable to user requirements.
Would there be any practical way to use this on the Touch HD? (Even Xperia has this now!!!)
I plan to turn off TF3D (is it possible with Touch HD???)
And use something else, probably SpB Mobile Shell .... ???
Unless, yes, if we can enable "Today" application in TF3D !
I have a touch hd, you can disable the TF3D under the "today" preferences.
Hi guys,
Welcome me to the family of HTC and WinMO. I bought HTC Touch yesterday and felt I am on the top of the world. It is purely exhilarating. The features, touch screen, touch flo, awesome. This is my first WinMO and Touchy.
I need some clarifications,
1. How should I bring the big digital clock in my desktop. Now I have a normal clock with hands. I tapped on it and holded for few secs, I then get the clock settings but no where can see the digital clock makeover.(Googled and tried).
I also tried to go to Start > Settings > Today > Items, removed TouchGlo and enabled HTCHome, stil same, enabled both, stil same and vice versa, stil same.
Please help me out in getting the digital clock.
2. I connected my HTC to my laptop in order to transfer music and wallpapers. But I need everything to be transferred to the card and not to the Phone. But I dunno where to put all the files in the card since it is not having any defined folders for music, pics.
Should I put it just in the card or should I create separate folders?
3. One step further, I always mod my mobile, like I do for my Sony. Heard the same thing is possible in WinMO too. Can any1 point me to a tutorial so I can cook my HTC too the extreme??

What device do you have specifically - HTC Touch Elf or Vogue
1. I have checked my settings on HTC touch Elfin and could not find how to change to Analogue clock - Mine is already digital - Perhaps check out HHC - HTC Home customizer which is available for free on this site
2. I created a seperate folder for music and movies on my storage card and just manually transfer them over to the folder on my storage card either through active sinc or using WIFI or Bluetooth. I havn't tried automatic sincronization of music into music folder - Don't know if you can to the storage card anyways.
3. To point you in the right direction you need to be specific as to which device you actually have. HTC Touch is not specific - Touch Vogue, Elf or Elfin - Or even Touch Diamond - Touch Pro, Touch Dual etc.....the ROM's you will try are device specific and if you flash the wrong ROM you could brick your device
Just install Manilla2D in development and hacking section your phone will rock then they will think you have the Touch Diamond

Also one more query what is the 'CUBE'??? Is it available in my phone?? How to see it?

Cube : just swipe your finger upward from bottom of screen and up then side to side to rotate cube. These instructions should be in your owners manual. I suggest really learning more about your device and how to use it before flashing any ROM's. I suggest you start with other applications (CAB's) to install on your device to customize since most can easily be uninstalled if they don't function properly. Once you have done a lot of reading and understand your device better, then if you wish, you can tackle flashing a new ROM. I personally haven't even flashed a custom ROM yet onto my device, but am starting to get tempted. I havn't done enough reading on it yet to even try or offer any advice in that area

The above version shows what looks to me to be touch flo 2D. If you have a ROM Flashed with Touch FLo 2d then I don't think you will have the cube. Touch Flo for Elf (reg not touch flow 2d is not a home plugin - the settings are found under settings and it is only a box to check on or off. This enables the cube and swiping for regular touch flow. HTC Home Plugin should show a digital clock- some buttons for SMS, EMail, Missed calles, and under those, your home screen button, Weather, Shortcuts and Ringer settings. Depending on which version of HTC Home you have you may also find, Music player controls and Quick dial shortcusts buttons.
The buttons at the bottom of the above picture are your page selection buttons for home, email, pictures, music etc... I havn't installed Touch flo 2d yet on my device, so don't know much about how it runs on the elf, but do know that it can be installed or flashed onto a device VIA custom ROM. THis is what I think you have on your device - therfore no cube or HTC Home Plugin.
I have done no changes to the phone yet..it's factory default watever I have got..how to change/update my HTCHome??? I need the digital clock badly as well as the CUBE(Just to show off)..Kindly help me out.
BTW thnx for the fastest reply.

Hi
If you had read the forums, you would have noticed that your configuration is what everyone wants and the cube is being deactivated (taking too much mem and few applications). Anyway if you like the big clock you can install Htc Home. You can also try Homescreen plusplus for skins http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=350510
Greetings.
Ps refer to your device as an Elfin

There's a line just below Welcome, [email protected] , on the top right, use "Search"
Good luck
I have used the search in this forum and searched your ROM Version and it is infact from what I have read an official WM 6.1 with Touch flo 2d. You do not have the cube sorry to say. You have basically the same thing as the HTC OPAL. If you disable Touch FLo then you might be able to use HTC Home Plugin, but it is not likely already on your device (it wouldn't be stock) so you might want to look into this and download the HTC Home plugin and see if you can get it to run. Once you install it you will go into your today settings and click HTC Home Plugin to run - this will not work if Touch FLo 2d is running. I don't know if you can get the cube installed and working or not. I havn't read anything about it in the forums as most people who are using Touch flo 2d say that the cube is intentionally left out of the mix because it slows the device down terribly with Touch flo 2d. Most prefer touch flo 2d and don't care about the cube. If you want the cube - you will likely have to look into flashing a custom ROM (non touch flo 2d) for your elfin. I strongly suggest doing much reading before attempting to do so as you don't want to brick your device.
^^thnx m8..it was clear..as of now I wil drop the idea of having the cube..atleast I need the HTC home installed.
@tito12
It's not I am not doing the search, I have done everythin I could and finally landed up here to ask help frm u guys..so pls let me know frm where I can get the HTC home plugin installed for my version of HTC.

I have provided copies of the Cab's for the HTC home plugin which I am using that I have found elsewhere in this forum. Read my post as you might have problems with backlight as well (if it even works on your device) - If it doesn't work - I can't help you - If it messes your device right up - do a soft reset to see if it works and if not then hard reset and that should get rid of it and bring you back to factory default settings. Should be low risk trying it anyways. (Hard Reset will delete everything on your device you have put on - so you will may want to back up some of your files
^^I searched and found a thread which had the HTC home plugin cab..I d/l and installed and nothin changed..I have got the same with addl. IE icon on the top..stil no digitsl clock..Is ther any spl instructions to d/l the plugin you have directed..or just run the cab file???
You should only have to send the cab to your device. On your device, click it to install. Once installed go Start - settings - today and click the Items tab at bottom - Find HTC home and click the box there - Uncheck everything else for now and then add what you want after. Just to check that it is working. You might have to do a soft reset after installing it though. If it isn't working with a soft reset and by folowing the steps I have listed, then it's probably not compatable

I got my Touch HD a few weeks ago and I must say its a helluva upgrade from my old Qtek 9100 :up:
I have a few questions/problems here:
Im used to using Today Agenda on my 9100 so I wonder if there is a way to edit TF3D so I can see lots more calender days on the home screen of TF3D? I also wonder regarding this, I would like to edit the TF3D home screen so its more optimised so the calender takes most of the space. Or is there a way to get Todays Agenda to work with TF3D? Im really missing all my calender stuff cause it isnt shown days in advance.. Damn I missing lots of birthdays since I got the Touch HD =)
Another question, is there a way to get the TF3D task manager icon in the right upper corner always show? Now it only shows now and then, would be much faster/effective if it was always there (aside from fullscreen programs that is)
I would also like to be able to remove the Operator information at the top of the TF3D home screen, it just feels unnecessary and just takes away space from my "want to be there" calenders
EDIT: got some new questions now
I cant get email to work, I type in my login information for Windows Live, the same as I always use when I logon Messenger and Hotmail and they dont work in the Live in the Touch HD, what can be wrong?
I want to be able to hear digital radio stations and I cant get anyone to work. Since the built in radio SUCKS, very hard to get a decent quality so I want to listen to swedish radio on teh intarweb instead
I tried different kind of streaming, none works :/
here is a few Ive tried:
http://www.sr.se/sida/artikel.aspx?artikel=2260956&programid=2321 (swedish Im afraid)
http://www.di.fm/
www.htchradio.com
Ive tried Coreplayer, Built in Media Player and Streaming Media. I cant get it to work... Anyone got any ideas?
Anyone? Seems like everyone else gets all their streaming stuff working
noone to help with more calender days on the home screen of TF3D? It's really a big issue to me.
same for me! Thats a big part of having a smart phone /PDA, that you can have full control of your calender and see in 20+ days whats happening...
Try "Second Today" for "Today Agenda"
I used the "Today Agenda" program before
and it's a good software.
To keep using it, I install "Second Today" program
for it. It helps to enjoy the pros of TF3D & "Today Agenda"
AH perfect! It works like a charm :up:
I can finally have lovely Todays Agenda and with another wallpaper to! :drool:
Thank you very much for suggesting this
hi, I'm Ed, and ive got a big problem with my htc touch 3g, and i think its time to sort it out. Okay, my touch 3g is on orange (contract) and obviously i wanted the original touchflo 2d on it (Black and Blue-ish kind of theme) but, instead it gave me two crap choices of ORANGE BRANDED themes, the really awfull orange(TM) homescreen theme, or just a wierd black-on-white version of touchflo 2d. I chose the wierd touchflo, but honestly, i dont want either. I just want atleast the ORIGINAL M2D THEME, or the choice for others. Ive been trying to resolve this problem by using numerous options, ive downloaded Manilla 2D customizer, downloaded soo many themes (atleast 7 now) and none of them work, there is alway some problem with it, Ive tried nearly every recomended option. All I want, is to be able to just have a normal htc touch 3g software on it with a normal touchflo on it. I REALLY want to get rid of this orange(TM) branded stuff on it, (including that stupid 'unique manager') on it. Please, is there anybody that understands my problem, and can give me a step-by-step guide on how to do it. Please reply (PLEASE)
Hi Ed,
Though i don't have an Orange brand Jade i understand your problem; there are several threads on this forum about it.
If you really wanna get rid of all the orange stuff, there's no other choice i guess then to unlock your phone (which is not sim unlock) using HardSPL s you can flash another ROM.
Put on your reading glasses and start over here:

Out of curiosity, how different is Orange TF from the default TF (the blue background). Are the tabs different, what else is different. Any screen shot ? (Need to understand the situation before offering useful assistance)
There are two options for TF with orange customers. One is basicaly the normal Touch Flo with orange's background on the home page, and a few different tabs (an "Orange World" on and a few others missing, Google Maps at least iirc). The other is one similar to other, older Orange phones, with a shortcut menu on the home screen, which I hate and so didn't actualy use and cant tell you much about.
Ed, if you just want the normal touchflo I definatly saw an option to change it before i flashed mine, I think it was a program in the Start > Programs screen just called "Change Orange Screen" or something similar.
the main reason i unlocked the phone (HSPL) and flashed the WM6.5 overloaded ROM was to get away from the Orange crap too!
They have seriously messed with the network/internet side of things... i was horrified to see i could not connect to the interent with Wifi... i managed to get it to do it... but it took some messing about and its a case of forcing it.. and it not really liking it!
with this overloaded rom and the touch flow running (instead of windows default like i did have lol) i think its great! Its really built around Wifi and then using Hspda or what ever it is as a second option if wifi's not available! well worth re-flashing too!
i just want to know how i change the order of the icons at the bottom... messages, email, footprint etc
dont really see what foot print is tbh haha!
Do a hard reset then soft reset before the phone can customize. All the orange stuff is loaded after the main hard reset
