Four days forecast on weather tab ? - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps

Is there a way to have 4 days forecast on the weather tab like on the HTC HD ? It would be great, current weather could be see through the windows and i don't like to use the left softkey
thanks
a picture to illustrate

I've the same problem

I guess we have to wait for an newer manila version...

Too lazy to press left softkey... Mankind is doomed.

but you know what they say - laziness is the driving force for invention

Wouldn't it be as easy as grabbing the TF3D plug-in from the HTC HD and putting it on the Diamond ?

Sure. But without the HD ROM Dump - No Chance....

No, it's possible and we did it actually, but HD is widescreen, thus other-day forecasts are almost covered with tab-bar, so it needs modding anyway...

Would like this too, even the QVGA TF2D has it:

It's a shame this TF2D is only for QVGA device, it's quick, with all the tabs we need and must be lighter in memory than the 3D one...

I could imagine that HTC will add some of these features to a future rom update of the diamond and the pro...
If not, they suck

SPB Mobile Shell 2.1 and VGA?

Friends,
I've looked through hundreds of pages and can't find much that notes it is VGA compatible. Can any of you post links to shells that work with VGA? I'd love a WM7 or Diamond theme, or anything dark and attractive. A simple one with calendar and no tabs for lots of room.
Anyone?
There is less people use VGA device rite now thats why skin for VGA is only a little I just can find VGA skin at http://mobileshell.ppc-theme.com
Please if anyone have the info where I can find VGA skin for mobileshell , please share also thanks
I'm having no luck at all...

You are very positive. I am not.
Athena is about a year on the market. Universal, I guess about 2 years. Bouth support VGA. Didn't help.
Er.. you could try to edit your own theme. I own a I780 but in RealVGA mode at 96 dpi, all the layouts are messed. I did a lot of editing and came up with the basic theme running at 96dpi mode. I had also done a Diamond theme and did some modification work as well.
You could try to do it.

But HTC Touch Diamond is different you can see if anyone made a thread about "Touch Diamond" the views will be thousands so its different..hope this Diamond will really made all VGA users becomes diamond hehe
If I had a VGA Device to test with, I would support it on my themes, but unfortunately I only have qvga devices.
A friend is going to loan me his 240x240 for a couple days so I can port to that though.
need VGA
I for one very much miss VGA. I had a Dell x50v back in the day and the screen was AWESOME!
I WILL be getting the Diamond Pro (with keyboard) when it comes out in the US.

From what (little...) I understand Your main question is if Mobile Shell is VGA compatible and not about themes.
Yes, it is. I've been running it smoothly on my Eten X500+ for months now together with SPB Weather, Time and Diary. It is IMO fast and reliable and lacks almost nothing I want from a shell. I will try iContact again when someone makes it truly VGA-compatible (larger icons, buttons and text) but Mobile Shells contacts is also quick and easy to use.
Just FYI

** Mobilityflow is going to release a new product called Touch Shell 3D **

Mobilityflow is going to release the new product called Touch Shell 3D as a component of Touch Commander Suite 4.0 - for Pocket PC Phones. The new product will provide you with the features similar to those of SPB Shell and the famous TouchFLO 3D installed on HTC Touch Diamond.
Touch Shell 3D features:
- Visual effects similar to those of TouchFLO 3D on HTC Touch Diamond
- Can show any third-party Today Plugins at the separate page
- Touch Pop-up Menus, Task Manager
- Compatibility with the most devices running Windows Mobile 5/6 (200 MHz CPUs, QWGA)
This product appeared soon after the release of the famous TouchFLO 3D for HTC Touch Diamond. With Touch Shell 3D you will be able to experience the ease of use similar to that of TouchFLO 3D and IPhone. You will also be able to enjoy special visual effects which will give you the impression of a three-dimensional space.
I can't wait to see this.......... I guess the Beta will be coming soon.

Doesn't seem to be anything special.
Very similar to UltimateLaunch or Throttle Launcher I guess, because the video only shows today plugins in tabs but not scrolling album artwork or contact photos like TouchFlo 3D does.
thats it ????
this is way behind throttle and ultimate laucher
Lame, but hey can't fault em for trying I guess.
The clock in SPB SHEll with diamond theme have no animation,,
THIS ONE have,,So i like it very much^^

I can't tell from this poorly shot video if it's way behind or not... I did catch a glimpse of the 3d when the clock changed time.
looks great. I like how you can still use the start menu and task manager unlike SBP and some others. Thanks! Im def buying one.
Looks like MusicFlo, doesn't it?

musicflo, funny noob. no its better and looks better, it has the animated clock and can handle plugins on each tab.
so lets wait a little, but it looks promising.

They should work fine, but you might see some funky things due to the difference in screen dimensions. Since the Diamond is 480x640 and the HD is 480x800, some apps might look stretched out, and some might not fill the screen. But WinMo is WinMo no matter what device it's on, so they will function the same.

In theory.
Most wallpapers won't be the right size. I don't know if the HD will stretch them, or leave your screen with empty space.
Let us know how it goes once you have it!

PointUI Home on Xperia!

Check this out!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TrTX-hL_qkw&eurl=http://www.pointui.com/
Looks nice!!!
Looks like it's still only optimised for VGA though, note the large gap at the bottom.
Nope, watch the video again, and note the use of the full screen.
So how do we get this or demo or trial it?

only one of the screens looks as if it has some gap at the bottom (others are filling the screen nicely). I'm guessing that even on that home/main screen, the gap is somewhere where you can add some quick access icons or something... or maybe not. It is still a work in progress, so let's hope for the best. (In my opinion, it looks way cooler than SPB)
Looks like it's just a Today plugin
it's activated via today plugin just like how touchflo3d is for the Touch series phone.
if there's a beta version of Home UI 2.0 available, I won't mind coding a panel for it. it's not very difficult after experimenting the nav panel.
btw, the UI works on WVGA but I don't think it's optimised. The home page has a chunk of white space wasted...
I think it looks really promising, can't wait to try it out... I found this on their website: "Accompanying the announcement was a demonstration of the user interface on the HTC Diamond, a customised build of Home 2." Does that mean that Telstra developed Touchflo 3D for HTC? I thought HTC made it themselves.

that demo on the HTC Diamond UI is not TouchFlo, but the PointUI interface customised for Telstra based on 1.51a platform
Looks sweet!
I wants me some of that!
If only Microslouch could make winmo look and work like that.
great work, can't wait to put my hands on it
Yes ok, but what about the phisical keybord???? Rotation screen will be supported? I really hope so... otherwise this ui doesn't make sense on xperia (as the tf3d imho)
he old version did (and still does it, even on my X1) this perfctly within 1-2 Seconds... So it's your guess what it will be like in the next version...

HTC firestone's touchflo3d 2.5 revealed

Heres a video guys of the new touchflo 3d 2.5 running on a touch hd, original story from wmpoweruser.com, heres the link
WTH....u gotta be kidding me...this looks absolutely nice..only thing is i like the home tab and contact tab on tf3d2
nice, extremly beautiful and useful but pretty slow(at leats in that rom)!
can i get this on my Diamond!!
man, this is looking really nice!!
this looks like a job for xboxmod
brilliant! this is SOOoo nice and practical, especially the home tab. Make perfect sense to integrate program tab there
It looks like a really good upgrade, but why is it called 3D?
Its clearly M2D with a different skin and some great additions...
agree its great upgrade but now the 3d contacts is gone
but honestly, the 3d effect in the contacts was only eye-candy. the grid layout is much more usable. you can access the contacts way faster. with the 3d layout you would have to flip through them or scroll down on the right list. I would prefer the new layout!
totally agree with you
That phone looks more like a Touch Pro 2 that an HD
Be curious to see how long it will take for it to be released to the current line of HTC phones.
Will this be the touchpro2 diamond2 winmo6.5 upgrade? Ive been wondering about that for ages...
New Htc Phone
It is the firestone, no blackstone (touch HD) the firestone is a new device, here is the link for the next phones of htc.
I agree. From what I gather, their upcoming released phones will have this new version but I would think EVENTUALLY it will come to Diamond2, TP2, etc..
At least I hope

new manila 2.5 from firestone Excelent
very fast and now 100% fingerfrindly
more options EXCELENT
The next build of Manilla, TouchFlo3D 2.5, has been leaked, and this video shows it running on a HTC Touch HD. It continuous the replacement of the normal Windows Mobile UI, and it seems all parts of calendar and settings are now subsumed in the software.
Also new is HTC Footprints as an integral part of TF3D.
this is true ???? canĀ“t wait for new Rom with manila 2.5

yeah, htc isn't too big on backwards mobility. the diamond and pro 1 didn't get tf3d 2.0., i'm somewhat skeptical that they'd change now.
however, with that having been said, there is something that may lend credence to why this may be available. all these new devices are WVGA, so it would be easier. as seen w. xbmod's port, wvga to vga is a bit*h to work.

Cool. Thanks for the link! Man, I'm really anxious for this release. The Calendar, new Today, and Contacts are great.
That's one part of Mobile Shell 3.0 that I miss is that Contacts screen. I prefer the picture/contact layout that's in MBS 3.0 and, it appears, in the new 3D 2.5 format.
