which one do everyone think is better
M2D is more popular, but Throttle Launcher is improving quickly and is more customizable with plenty of features such as Flash plugins and Widgets, etc... TL is clearly the best UI for WM.
I use both
Use Manilla2D as regular, then some of the tabs of TL in SecondToday.
TL as I been reading M2D can take up quite a bit of space on a non-htc device.
neither
rltoday will remain on my screen forever. I love mucking around with tl and m2d, but in the end I always go with rltoday.
Both are very nice today plugins, but my personal preference is rl.
@drmidnight: really? i mean, i respect your opinion, and you've released some great-looking themes for rl, but i've found that rl isn't very functional. having to use mortscript's sys2reg feels sort of... i don't know, inelegant? though i admit it's easier to make rl look great.
i'm actually debating which of these to install once my phone comes back from repairs. TL still seems a little buggy but i like how customizable it is. plus i'm a little wary of HTC apps, i used htc home on my Prophet until i realized that it had a huge memory leak and it would randomly soft-reset my phone!
As of the last few versions: M2D
While I love tweaking things, the ease of use they've finally achieved with M2D and it's skins is something that TL can't compete with right now.
TL has a ton of potential, but unless you have both the time, and the knowledge, for it (and lots of both) then it's a lot less user friendly ;P
how did you get both to work i have been trying to useTL on second today but it doesnt load for me
The main Problem is that TF2d runnes fast like hell on any Device and TL doesnt

I really enjoy the simplicity of it.
well TL are more costumizable than manila and take less ram and storage.. but for over all performance i vote for manila
TouchFlo2D run really fast without lacking..so I prefer that
speed is everything. you can't see any "loading" warning on manila. so my vote is going to manila.
I use manila 2d because im lazy and dont really want to edit anything myself. But when i did use throttle i love it customize your weather and you can add your today screen plugins. So both are good just depending on if your lazy or not
I have been cooking both in my device (Atom Exec).
TL: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=421349
TF2D: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=433600
I was very happy with TL and proud of being a skinner of a GSmart alike but it used a lot of RAM.
Storage isn't an issue since they were cooked in a ROM.
As for TF2D, weather is far better, tabs are much faster and it eats less RAM.
Despite the effort I have been putting in skinning TL my vote goes for TF2D.

@Jaime Méndez
Hi!
Can you share your TL theme please? . It looks awesome. Also... have you tried it with 0.9.4k? It theorically must work a lot faster.
@everybody
Well, I don't want to hijack the poll. I know my opinion is not impartial but here it is:
TL Wins:
- Scalability
- Customizable
- Potential
TF2D Wins:
- Speed
- RAM footprint (but this depends on the theme you're using for ThrottleLauncher).
Understand that throttle's target is to be able to do almost "any possible interface". And that's something that has it's drawback in performance as everything is configurable. Touchflo2D on the other part has may fixed things that make speed and mem save possible.
Also ThrottleLauncher is still on beta stage and some improvements are still under progress...
ThrottleLauncher is only an UI framework to allow people with nice design ideas for new interfaces to implement them eassily .
Any way I'm really proud that an application developed by me on my free time is even taken in account as a UI developed by a whole multinational enterprise ... and still gets some votes!!!
Well... to sum up use TF2D if all that you want is speed and RAM but keep an eye on Throttle , and if one day you feel creative give Theme development a try....

close this thread, its no popularity competition. or move to Off topic.

theres already no overview about new developed applications. the xda forum deserves an own subforum for skins and themes like for the new devices that have been added.

I use M2D at the moment as it is very pretty and it works smoothly. Throttle Launcher has more customization, but the animation is not as smooth as M2D and it cannot completely duplicate the TouchFlo3D plugin...

Hi there!
i wanted to start a Poll to find out what do you think is the best UI for PPC out there at the Moment! Cause i was using ThrottleLauncher...if you install it it works well, but if you use it very often it becomes slower and slower...so this is not an option for me at the moment!
If you know an UI that isnt mentioned, post it here
Here are my suggestions:
ThrottleLauncher 0.9.2
Mobile Shell 2.1
rlToday
UltimateLauncher
MusicFlo
HTC Home with Plugins
iFonz
XIA-MultiTheme
WA3 & WAD2
Other (post which)
greetz,
infernalshade
ThrottleLauncher 0.9.2 - didn't try
Mobile Shell 2.1 - feature packed and beautiful, but not very fast. No problems with stability so far
rlToday - didn't try
UltimateLauncher - interesting, but isn't visually appealing to me
MusicFlo - Diamond ripoff...
HTC Home with Plugins - too weak to be useful
iFonz - iPhone ripoff...
XIA-MultiTheme - I don't know this one
WA3 & WAD2 - sloooow as heeellll and requires way too much RAM to bu used on my 200 MHz 64MB ram herald
Winterface - lightweight and extremely fast, but too weak and ugly
PointUI Home - once loaded very fast, is very beautiful, but has several problems I hate (no czech characters, decreased contrast, ...)
My vote: Mobile Shell 2.1

Then sorry, it's not much of a poll, lacking as it does an app that would probably be in most people's top three.
Musicflo? XIA? Swap one of these for PointUI and you are on to something. As I would vote for PointUI - I have no affiliation to the company, I'm just an admirer of their work - I cannot currently vote, which is a pity!

Point UI is indeed a great interface.
It has several major drawbacks though:
-lack of plugins API (will be available 4th quarter apparently)
-lack of skin support
-lack of customization (hotkeys, icons, etc)
-battery drain on certain devices
-buggy when receiving a call, keeps the alarm from ringing in the morning (sic!)
These are major problems that made me uninstall this software, nonetheless, it's a very promising product, and the developpement team seems very competent (few releases but with many improvements). It's just a pain that it will become a commercial product soon, well.. we'll see if it's worth the money then.
I still have to try ultimate launch
Voted for MobileShell... All the other either don't work (or sometimes don't even start), are way too slow, or are just another iPhone or Diamond rip-off.
i wonder why there is no pointui in the poll...
for me it is far the best!

-widgets
-flexible engine (open development of widgets?)
-hardware accelaration support (will my mogul run faster?)
-facebook integrated into contacts!
-multiple home pages
-professional and lifestyle (huh?) layout
-kinetic scrolling
-fully customizable (themes supported?)
This can tide everyone over until 6.5! Way better than TouchFlo (IMO).
Amazing

Not if SPB hasn't really done away with the standard Today screen. One of the reasons I didn't switch over to 2.0 was the fact that the Mobile Shell home screen did not replace the today screen. I know there's an XDA hack for that functionality, but MS 3.0 should take lesson from PointUI and replace today completely.
this looks awesome.
their standard/default themes always sucked. and somehow 3.0 looks just like 2.0 just with a little tune up..hmm...after all this announcements im a little bit disappointed.
was it announced when this would be available?
Uffff I think i would use this for sure!!! need a release date...
I am a little dissapointed. When I heard about Facebook integration, for some reason I was thinking of the ability to use chat, change status, etc... instead it is just a way to get the profile photo to the contact in your address book. Bummer.
I agree. Not much better than the current version. Should've integrated a few apps would've made it more useful. new version of mobile shell might make current skin invalid too.
So this is basically the same, but a little "upgraded." By not changing the overall idea at all, the same reasons I dont use 2 will be the same reasons I dont use 3. I was expecting so much more with the hype. PointUI kills this. Kills. When will they learn, keep it simple, make it customizable. Oh well.
It looks ok but PointUI didn't do anything for me either so I'll stick with my TF3D till either is truely better.
Glad to see they're trying something new since TouchFLO pretty much made me stop using Mobile Shell as it did what I needed, and it came with my OS, rather than having to install something on top.

JukEboXAuDiO, you seriously must be joking right! Pointui Home not customizable? Is being able to replace every graphic in the app, being the only UI with scripting support to allow you to build all sorts of applets and things, and being able to customize the background through the entire app not quite enough customization for you? Or are you referring to the old version released 12 mths ago?
Hi,
I've been using Jack V3.x medium for the past few weeks. The ROM has been brilliant apart from a few issues with TF3D lag (although i gather that this is a universal TF3D problem) and overall i am quite happy with it.
Jack V3.x is not based on WM6.5 however, unlike some other ROM's that have been popping up in the ROM development forum. From what i've been reading WM6.5 is only an incremental upgrade to 6.1 and so i am left wondering: Is it worthwhile to upgrade to WM6.5 now, bugs and all, or to wait for a few months before upgrading so all the bugs get wrinkled out? Also, what WM6.5 ROM would people recommend upgrading to?
Thanks in advance!
P.S. The factors that would make me want to upgrade are things like improved functionality, faster speed, clearer UI, etc.
Well I am using gtrabs ROM and so far I am really liking it. It is pretty fast, no bugs or crashes, and the interface is clean. I have kinda got a bit tired of TouchFlo3D so I wanted something different. I would say give it a go....
itje's 6.5 RC1 is what I'm on, if you disable threaded messaging it works probably better than official 6.1 roms did for me. Its faster, scrolling is much much better, looks nicer, and has titanium which i really get on with.
yes .
definitely worth it.
Interface upgrades, ram usage isn't up that much, it's a lot smoother.
using gtrab's rom right now, it's so quick when browsing windows in file explorer.
battery life has somewhat improved, strangely enough.
I have only tried one 6.5 rom, and that is Valkyrie v1, which has TF3D in case I didn't like the WM 6.5 interface. It all functions properly, so I'd recommend trying it (or other 6.5 roms) and see how it works for you.
However I'm seriously considering going back to WM6.1. While this 6.5 rom works well and I'm glad Chefs are experimenting with 6.5 (doing a great job!), it just seems slower and less refined. I'll give it a bit more of a go before giving up though!
Regarding the WM6.5 interface, I personally thing TF3D is far better - why have such a tiny area for plug ins? Daft I reckon!
Give it a go and see what you think!

Touch Flo slow? Really? Seems very quick to me, at least on the latest roms. It also seems to have a much more efficient layout.
I've just put Touch-it v7.1+ (WM6.1) back on, and it's so much smoother & together than the 6.5 rom I tried!
But yes, I may give your rom a go gtrab, and see how it is. I'm sure 6.5 will have advantages, just not sure it's there yet.
What do you do in WM 6.5 for listening to music? S2P is no good (well, is good until you get a call and it mucks everything up!), WMP is no good for finger navigation.
Even if smooth though, I'm pretty sure the new TouchFlo is better than Titanium, but I will see if I can be persuaded
Comparisons are always subjective. I quite like the clean interface of Titanium and got bored of TouchFlo. I may get bored of Titanium and go to SPB Mobile Shell etc.
One thing you need to remember is that WinMo 6.5 (and the R3A ROM) are still in Beta so some may get bugs and some may not. FTR I am using gtrabs ROM and so far it is very good and I think it will be a keeper for me until the proper version comes out (i.e. no beta).
Apart from having to reload your programs there is no harm in giving it a try - if you don't like it you can go back to a 6.1....
Yes, I think you must try Gtrab's WM6.5 ROM...It plays with speed. I've tested another 4 WM6.5 ROMs, and finally i go back to Gtrab's one and said Wow! for his Rom.

I use Sony's MXP panel for media
I don't like Touch Flo, I prefer the Panels and Titanium (both together)
Many "Touch Flo" cookers these a days, and just a couple of XPERIAncers as me
This is a matter of choices and tastes, very subjective, yes I agree with all of you
Only one thing is for real:
The only way to find WHICH ROM and WHAT softwere better suits your own needs is by trying...
Which car is better ?? Audi or Mercedes ??
You have to drive them both and make your personal pick
Same principle applies to ROMs
My oppinions:
1- If your personal preference is Touch-Flo, why upgrading to WM6.5 ???
You can get GREAT ouch Flo ROMs from itje, jack or smaberg
2- if you REALLY prefer Touch Flo, why buying a SONY XPERIA in the first place ??? The phone itself was not designed for Touch Flo !!!
Thanks for all of your replies.. i'll put on WM6.5 to test out now. I like your confidence gtrab, so i'll be puting on your barebone version first .
Oh, and regarding your questions in your last post: I am a fan of TF3D only because it adds a lot of usability that the default WinMo 6.1 lacks on its own. It also looks good and gives me all the information i need in an easy-to-access manner. If there was an alternative that maybe wasn't as good looking but had functionality and more importantly was fast and hopefully free then i'd be happy to move over to it (The PointUI panel was brilliant, but the lack of a large-font clock was a downer).
And as for why i bought an Xperia.. Well, mainly because i accidentally dunked my last phone in a cup of scalding hot tea . When looking around for new phones i liked what i saw in the Xperia reviews and so here i am. The phone itself is brilliant, apart from its default OS and panels. In theory they sounded great but in practice i didnt like the associated lag (on vanilla OS, at least) with it when switching from one panel to another. Still, it may be time to try them out again.
Ok, i'm off to flash a rom or two .

Because w/ X1, we have a choice to pick panel and/or TF3D. Not the other way around since no others devices are able to run Panel stable.
OKOK, I admitted I would have a hard time to pick X1 or HD if HD fully support USA's 3G. ;p

In the end, yes, you need to use what suits you.
1) Why upgrade to 6.5? Well, how would I know I preferred TF3D if I didn't try 6.5? And why not try something new? - it could be better, and I will keep trying new things, as the current TF3D will not be the best forever!
2) The Xperia runs TF3D perfectly well, and I knew this, so this did not put me off buying the Xperia. Also, hardware comes into it - the Xperia was my only real option, as nothing else (that's worth having) has WVGA screen and hardware keyboard.
While a lot of this is subjective, not all of it is. For example, the amount of useful space for an applet on TF3D compared to Titanium:
You can do much more with this space, e.g. calendar & music player.
If I had more time I'm sure I could show some of the objective advantages to TF3D, but I don't, he he! But I guess, even if one is actually better and more efficient, if you prefer the other one, then that's the one for you to use
And regarding the media panel, when I tried it, it seemed great, but when I changed back to default panel the music stopped - is this normal? I'd use it if I was able to run the music in the background while browsing the web & doing texts!
It's great we get such a choice on these phones, thanks to XDA dev!

It looks fantastic. Great job. Are you going to make a VGA-Version?
I don't think it would be that complicated. The PalmPre's homescreen is basically a big TaskManager. We already have "similar" apps on Windows Mobile like that on the Xperia. Just make a homescreen plugin with a large task manager like interface with the same touch gestures as the Pre. The complicated part I would imagine would be the menu.
I like your skins, but it would be best as a simple homescreen plugin. Using WAD and the likes eats up memory and the way it overlays sucks.
I'm not a programmer but there are lots of open-source projects that, if combined, could provide roughly the same effect. I think someone with some know-how could come up with it pretty quick by reusing code that is already available out there.

Looking good. Here's my little take on it. Using a modded PointUi
Slightly off-topic tip: I suggest Omnia users should use PointUi 2.0.28e if they want their phone/clock to function poperly. Any other higher version causes the clock to stick and (possibly) corrupt the green button.

hopefully vga support soon
WOW super nice. very clean. hope the release will be soon definately going to donate for this

can you give a link to the theme your using?
I opened this thread because i really want to know what you other guys think about the new visual changes of WM 6.5. I personally think they are ugly and there is very little innovation in it. so basically most of things are increased in size ...When i saw for the frst time the mods i thought they were done by some registry change. if you compare it what HTC has done graphically is very very little i think. MS wants to make wm finger friendly by increasing the size of the graphic objects and dont care even if they look well or are aligned.
opinios are welcome
Agh who cares about the standard 6.5 home screen, everone has TouchFlo anyway...which is waaay better
i think 6.5 home is sexy, especially with the few themes made by some devs here on xda, i cant wait til seus give us 6.5(thats if)
i like the titanium home screen much more than TouchFlo
well the home wasnt my point actually i mean those new windows and those giant notifications ... sooo ugly ...
