Getting Action Screen back - Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus General

Hi guys,
I've installed a new ROM which doesn't have the Action Screen (or QuickTasks) by default. Is there a way to get this functionality back, because I found it to be quite useful.
I already installed the HTCActionScreen.cab and it works nicely when I start it, but it doesn't start when I slide the keyboard open.
Thanks for any help!
Regards,
eClaW

Screen Rotation Problem

Hi. When I open the keyboard, the screen orients itself to the landscape mode. When I close the keyboard, the screen resumes portrait mode, but on the right hand side, part of the screen is covered by the background. It is the same width as the scroll bar. I can't get rid of it until I reset the device. Any thoughts as to the problem and the fix? Thanks.
umm i had that issue before, do you have a lot of programs open? sounds strange, but when ever i have a lot of stuff running, my device cant handle it, so it kind of gets frozen onto the screen until i reset...
does this problem occur ALL the time, or when u run a certain problem?
Actually, it only happens on the Today screen. If I have any program running in landscape and return to portrait before exiting to the Today screen, no problems. Just when I go to landscape in the Today screen. Very odd.
what todayscreen plugins are you running?
I think only two: Tonaya Weather to Go and cLauncher. Pbar is also running, but I don't think it is a Today Plug-in.

I had the same problem too with cLauncher but it is no longer there after I installed SPBMobile Shell which enable me to put cLauncher into one of its tabs buttons...
Why don't you try disabling cLauncher from your today..
I tried disabling each program alone. I had to place other today features (all standard with WM5) to create a list long enough to cause the scroll bar on landscape mode. When I return to the portrait mode, the space was still on the right side as before. Curiously, I put back the plugins, and the space was gone. Must have been refreshed.
Hi Curious,
To refresh the Today screen after the vertical scroll bar has disappeared try...
1) Select the Comms button to display comms options
2) Slip out the keyboard so that the comms buttons re-orientate
3) Slip the keyboard back in then exit the comms screen to return to the Today screen
Is the Today screen intact now?
Thanks. That worked. Now I'm just wondering why it's doing that in the first place. At least I don't have to reset to get back part of my screen. Thanks again.
Nice one! Well done. Not sure why it happens but I have the same issue but I don't mind it that much. I was guessing that it was the SPB Plus Today Plugin but I'm not sure.
Do you also use the SPB Plus Today Plugin?
No. Is that like cLauncher?
Hi Curious,
The SPB Plus Today Plug-in allows you to place shortcuts on the Today screen and group them under tabs which is nice but if you don't have it installed then that blows my theory
The only other thing I can think is that it is possible to alter the vertical scroll bar width by editing registry, the key is:
HKLM\System\GWE\cxVScr
The Default is (Decimal) 13 but you may be able to make this smaller so that it minimises the problem.
If you do find the cause then let me know
Thanks, but I think I'll stick with your previous idea. I'd rather not tinker with the registry if I don't have to since I'm not great at understanding registry changes.
cLauncher does what SPB plugin does. It's free and it allows different sizes for the icons. It really helps me with one handed function. It may be part of the problem if SPB does the same thing with the screen orientation.
Thanks again for your help.

screen tap sounds not working after installing slither's cube with touchflo

First and foremost, all you guys at xda-developers and ppcgeeks freaking rock!!! Not to mention, there are so many other people also helping out. You really do contribute so much to the world in your own way and make us all look cool with our suped up phones.
After installing Slither's cube 1.62 and FTouchFlo 1.41, I am unable to get screen tap sounds working. The Hardware buttons sounds work fine as configured in the Settings>Sounds and Notifications section. But Screen Tap, eventhough set to Loud, does not work.
Your help in this matter would be most appreciated as quite a few people have reported this problem. I am using a Verizon XV6800 with the original rom. I also have iFonz 0.99.0 installed. But the issue is noted even when iFonz is not running. FTouchFlo seems to be auto running on start.
Thanks.....
not really sure why it happens....maybe because it adds a feature that we don't have normally on our devices...but after you uninstall ftouchflo or turn it off..your screen taps will reappear(after a soft reset of course)...it happened to me to when i used the cube but i haven't in awhile now...hope that helps a little

Wierd message cancel thing

Hi there just wondering if anyone had/has this problem and knows how to fix it. Basically when i go to reply to a text message by clicking on it (from inside TouchFlo) the keyboard appears, then dissapears. When i click on the box to type, the keyboard comes up, then jumps back down. I have to press the 'Keyboard' button when the keyboard is down (to bring it up) then type somthing (which doesn't appear) and then press space...to even start typing anything. It's really odd, i've tried re-flashing both stock and a few other ROM's...same wierd problem...anyone?
THANKS!
I also have the same problem. If i double tap a message from within touchflo there is no problem but if i tap it once i have the keyboard problem. It has been bugging me for a while as well! Although it's not major, if anyone has a fix it would be much appreciated.
haha it's really annoying the double clicking things doesnt work for me...anyone got a fix? also what rom are you running? thanks
Deleted....
talking to some of my friends, i've realised that this happens on general windows mobile, not just this phone, therefore i will re-post in order to gain more publicity. Thanks
Fortunately for me, everything is working fine, as in the manuals, even after using this set for over a year now. When I click "reply" from within TF, it automatically gives a text/message typing area and a keyboard area at the bottom half which stays there. I can drop the keyboard down (and up) by tapping (once) the keyboard icon at the bottom centre. no problem.
ha! it's lucky for some! What ROM are you using? Thanks

[Q] Problem with editing home screen

Hi there,
is just installed "AmeriCanAndroid AOSP HD2 GB233 CM7" on my HTC HD2 and must say, it's running like a charm.
There ist ONE Problem thus far, that is concerning me:
Today (my 2nd day with this release) i just cannot edit my homescreens anymore.
It worked as supposed till today.
I cannot place new widgets on the screen nor replace, delete them or anyting.
I even cannot delete the complete screen (out of the 5 in existence).
If i place my finger in an empty spot, phone gives haptic feedback after a short while, nothing happens. Same when i hold any already placed widget/link.
Evertihn else is working fine (swiping screens, starting things).
any idea?
Thanks, cpo
Press the Windows button, Select: Unlock desktop?
[SOLVED]
Oh, thank you very much. That was indeed the problem.
I wasn't aware that i even touched this function!
Thanks for your quick help!

Any advice, hide nav option

Well guys, I love how our screen looks without the navbar, from one time I love Pie but from the use I realize that when typing (Swype Keyboard) some times the pie activated....and is kind of annoying.
So I found an app to manage the phone with gesture, do you have any advice how to setup ´pie or I should go for this app?.
Cheers and thanks for any help.
I am using PIE on the top-right side of my N4, so I can use it with one hand.
