Slide to Unlock - Touch HD General

I have seen many images showing the infamous iPhone's "Slide to Unlock" and wondered which application this was? I can only find a program that is more than 12 months old.
Not that I want to copy the iPhone, but the security code entry on the HD is simply ghastly and very "Windows Mobile"!
Also, a better calculator would be superb!

S2U2, by A_C, in the "Developement & Hacking" Section is your best bet!

HiCalc is the best that I've come across so far.

HiCalc doesn't work on the HD so far - problems with the resolution! I've already contacted HiCalc's support about this issue. Maybe if many people contact them, they will prioritize support for the HD?
Regards!

If you're into RPN you can give my YaRPNcalc a try. It will already work in portrait mode but only use the top 640 pixels. I'm working on improving it for the HD now (because I now own a HD myself ). It's certainly not as powerful as HiCalc, on the other hand you can use it for free

Installing HTC Touch contact manager on Polaris

I've seen that HTC Touch's contact manager is far superior than one on Polaris (WM6 original) is there any chance to get it installed on Touch cruise?
http://it.youtube.com/watch?v=7JgaJXJBNbA&NR=1
Thanks
What the... It definitely looks better, especially the animations. The Polaris version uses the WM version with the random access (e.g. A to Z on the right of the screen) which isn't very handy in terms of NOT using the stylus.

Looks like PocketCM Contacts
You kind find it here http://www.pocketcm.com/contact.php
Also, pocketCM Keyboard is a must... works great and looks nice too
Plus, all of this is free (but you can, and will, donate to support this talented developper)
You mean that the one on the video is not an HTC application but pocketcm?
Does pocketcm has all the scrolling (IPhone like) features?
yes
At video are PocketCM i think ...
If you look at the notes (information) next to the movie, they also say that it's PocketM, so I think they mean PocketCM. If you look at the pocketcm website (as given by t.fabien), you see the same interface. So good luck installing pocketcm, since that's what you need

Has anyone gotten the chance to compare PocketCM with Vito's FunContact?

i tested pocketcm and it works great ;-) It has a few color styles: black, white, blue, grey.
and it has also nice features like the sms history.

Installed both the PCM Keyboard and Contact on my HTC Touch Cruise and it works flawlessly with a lot of options. Install smoothly(used the CAB) and quite a lot better than what comes with the original ROM.

Trying both on my 750, I think FunContacts is alot more polished an application than PocketCM. I also found less issues with device locking with FunContacts. Since I am running a trial of FC, I get that little splash screen but otherwise it loads quite quickly. I only have a 100 or so contacts.

iPhone-like "picture" app?

So my AT&T 8525 died around Christmas. I wanted to get a Touch Cruise, but the overseas inflated prices are KILLING me. So for the time being, I've gotten a Blackjack II and I'm waiting for the next big thing.
Yesterday, I went to an Apple store and played with an iPhone for about 15 minutes. The coolest things about it, IMHO...
1) The picture functionality - While turning the phone and watching the pic switch too is nice, and sliding between pics is excellent, what I REALLY like is spreading your fingers to zoom! That's amazing!!! Do any Win programs have that functionality?!?!?!?
2) The weather - Having the city, then the extended forcast is nice. But what I didn't realize before is you can add multiple cities and scroll between them with your figure... just like you can flip screen on a Touch! That was just sweet!
3) Google maps on my Blackjack II is nice, but Google Maps on a touchscreen phone just rules. And it feels so smooth on the iPhone, it's like it was MADE for it. Damn...
And I assume the video is smoother on the iPhone, especially watching YouTube videos... but I must admit I didn't try that.
If anyone knows of an app that lets you look at pictures like an iPhone... I'd LOVE to upgrade my old Sprint 6700 to WM6 and then use that phone to play with images until my figure falls off.

This is a multitouch screen thing, and no I don't believe there are any WM devices out with multitouch.

Uh...the version on the iPhone was made for it. There's a version for WM too that works just the same.
try the s2v program... (slide to view)... almost like the iphone picture app... this program is nice and its free... thanx to A_C for developing another great app... kudos....
there are tons upon tons of new photo viewing apps for WM, ever since the iPhone's release.
1)
S2V (Slide2View)
HTC Camera Album
PocketCM ImageViewer
PictureFlow
PocketCM "Even Nicer Flow Stuff" (no actual name, since it's a test)
2)tons upon tons of applications for weather, and many are skinnable. so although you probably can't get the slide, you can get some really great looking skins for apps like WeatherPanel. There's PhatPhinger, iPhone themes (looks like the iPhone's. no sliding, though), etc etc
3)Google Maps? Really? It's been out for ages for Palm and Windows Mobile. Shockingly to many, even before the iPhone came out.
http://www.google.com/gmm/index.html
There's even a maps application from Microsoft, Live Search, that is actually more fully featured than Google Maps, whether it's on WM or the iPhone. Just ignore that it's from Microsoft, it's actually a great app.

Any links to this app? Did a search here, as well as on Yahoo, but no dice.
i think i know why. it's because you're using yahoo instead of google
only kidding, to each his own. however, with google,
"slide to view" yields the correct result 6th
"slide2view" yields the correct result for the entire first page
and "s2v", yields 4th, 7th, & 8th
i'll give the benefit of the doubt, though, because "slide to view" doesn't show up anywhere when searching with yahoo or the Xda Search. you need that "2" in there, lol.

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.

I've the same problem
I guess we have to wait for an newer manila version...

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...

If not, they suck

It has the same zoom in and zoom out option like on the iphone. Double tap=zoom in or out! I love the new htc album but I haven´t seen a .cab for it yet!
haven't seen a cab for it either. suggest you go for a rom upgrade to dutty's v3 xt ship instead, it'll get you a lot of other good features as well, together with the new album. well worth the effort.

I prefer the old way to zoom in and out. Small circles are tighter zooms, larger circles are lesser zooms. It gives you more control. You can hold the HD with one hand and zoom with your thumb.
