noob question: Touchflo from cruise on dual...?

I'm hoping to buy a Touch Dual tomorrow, and I was wondering if it is possible to get the TouchFlo version from the touch cruise (which according to what I read is newer and better) onto this device? Or maybe it's already upgrated through some official update?
I tried searching for an answer but couldn't find one (so bear with me

What have u seen that was better?
All Touchflo elements on Cruise should also be on the Touch Dual.
perhaps a newer version 2.0.0.4 instead od 2.0.0.3 for example

I'm sure I read a review on some site saying that the FouchFlo was working better than on previous models, but maybe I was wrong (can't seem to retrace the site)

well actually in this review...
http://www.gsmarena.com/htc_touch_cruise-review-211p3.php
thay say...
"...We called the HTC TouchFLO in the HTC TyTN II a nice touch. Now with the HTC Touch Cruise, the new version has much more to offer. This is probably the most important plug-in on the device and it is even better that it comes preinstalled. The new TouchFLO technology greatly improves the user-friendliness and pretty much sidelines the stylus for navigating your PocketPC..."

The Tytn II has Touchflo?
Touch had an old Touchflo.
Touch Dual and Cruise the new one version.

Confused About all the Different Touch Flo 3d's

So just got my Xperia the other day and am looking to make the jump to Touch Flo 3d. Looking on the forum here there's at least 6 different versions and I'm kinda confused on what the differences between these even are.
Can someone please clarify the difference between:
Touch Flo 3d 1
Touch Flo 3d 2
Touch Flo 3d HTC Blackstone
Manila
Manila Touch HD
Manila V2
I noticed that there's also a lot of confrontation between installing touch flo as a ROM or just running it on a panel from a CAB file. What are the advantages of either. If possible I'd prefer to keep the Xperia panels and just run Touch Flo in a panel.
Also while I'm at it since I don't think it's worth another thread, can I run the Windows Mobile 6.5 beta in a panel or do I have to install it and wipe out windows mobile 6.1?

I am quite sure that WM 6.5 needs to be installed instead of WM 6.1.
About the Touch flo's im in the same boat... i just would like the "best" version as a panel. So thank you for bringing this up

Windows mobile is the platform on which all your programs run, including the panel manager and touchflo.
There's currently two* versions of TF3D, TF3D 1 and TF3D 2. Manila == TF3D.
The best and newest at the moment is TF3D2, as stickied, it has landscape support, but it also has a few bugs, as it's a beta build. All in all, it works more that good enough.
Best thing I can recommend is flashing one of itje's ROMS, preferably the new 4.0, which has TF3D2. This way, you'll have TF3D as your homescreen, but also the panels.
* Not including different beta's.

Alright thanks a lot, looks like I'll be installing that Touch Flo 3d2 ROM then.
Quick question though. Even if I flash this I'm going to assume I'm not resetting windows mobile since the xperia interface and touch flo 3d are just "skins" for windows mobile, so I wouldn't have to reinput all my settings?

When you flash your ROM, everything will be erased.
If you however just want to install TF3D and keep everything, you will have to wait for daran_clarke to finish his TF3d .cab, which you just install on your phone just like any application.

i recommend running TF3D2 from a rom, because the responsiveness and speed is increased alot. i recommend itje's touch it landscape ver 1.1 rom, as this is the most stable and normal version, as opposed to ver 4 which is lets say... a bit different. if you are intersested i will provide the rapidlinks to this no longer available rom

Already installed itje's V4 and am extremely pleased since it hasn't crashed yet. However I tried going on youtube and the video is really choppy and out of sync with the audio, which used to not be the case. Tested it both on wifi and edge and the data speed makes no difference. Any ideas?

Itje's V4 is (although the filename doesn't tell you this) still in it's beta stages. Some problems will still occur, but Itje is working on it.
That's the reason flext recommended you 1.1.

Am I supposed to have to reinstall the radio, because my EDGE has stopped working altogether since installing Touch Flo 3d?

Nope, that seems to be an unrelated problem. I've never seen reports of EDGE failing after TF3D installation. If the problem persists, you might want to try a hard-reset (also removing TF3D again).

TouchFlo 3D 2 works in portrait and landscape mode [latest version]
TouchFlo 3D 1 has touch flo tabs but only in portrait mode
Manilla is the TouchFlo cube [it isnt touch flo 3d at all]
Manilla HD is the same as Touch Flo 1
Manilla V2, I think is Touch Flo 3D.....
Forgive me for the guessing...I don't use touch flo

TouchFLO 3D 2.6 download for Diamond 2

Does anyone know where can I get TouchFLO 3D 2.6 for Diamond 2?

I think the closest you can get is 2.5.

where can I get TouchFlo3D 2.5?
I am using Diamond 2 with WM6.1, does it able to install touchflo3D 2.5?
Kindly advise. Thanks!

try the sunx rom manila 2.5 (!!!!!!!!!!) .. available for 6.1 and 6.5 ....
testet both and atm i think 6.1 is a bit better in speed and less bugs.. but that's just my opinion and its just a quick check^^ ....
...test it by your own ... wont be emberrasing

This is the Diamond forum, you're better off in the Diamond2 forum if you own that device.
That said 2.6 will never work with any MSM72xx devices according to conflipper. It is made for the HTC Quillin which uses a different chipset and thus a different GFX chipset.
And don't follow the suggestions of these guys, you'll probably brick your Diamond2 if you install a Diamond ROM on it.

jep sry overreaded the "2"

TouchFlo 3D on Orange SPV M700?

I recently flashed the ROM on my Orange SPV M700 to Windows Mobile 6.1 Elegant and was wondering if I could use TouchFlo 3D on there where you have different layouts than the usual Windows Mobile 6.1 Theme/Skin. Is there a method of doing it and is it easy or complex?, at the moment the Theme/Skin I got with the ROM is horrible and distasteful so if anyone has got a guide please share .

Manila 2D
You can use Manila 2D. I don`t think Touch Flo 3d works on trinity. I do believe it needs 3d acceleration and trinity doesn`t have that.

Thanks but links might be helpful next time , guess I'll just have to try and search it .

Well... thats what the search function is for

Cheers Mate IOU .
I found an excellent one with Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional and Manila 2D with all the great features, so you did help me, by suggesting Manila 2D, so thanks .

[Q] Xend Touch Flo s/w help for HTC elf 100

Hi all forum members,
I found this s/w XEND Touch Flo which actually changes the touch flo theme to a red color is exiting to see as am bored with the regular pre installed blue color.
I have HTC Touch P3452 (Elf 100) and am not able to install this.
Can anyone give me a link to download the correct file and the steps to be followed to install it in my elf.
Looking forward to hear from all of you.
I hope the developers can answer this to the best.
Also is there any other way or s/w which can be used in my elf to change the look and feel of my touch flow - I guess my touch flo is a 2D version and my elf has WM 6.1 with Qvga........

Joyjeet, our devices are 3 years old (dinosaurs in terms of smartphones) and touchflo has been removed from all cooked roms because of inefficiency and appetite for ram. All this to tell you there are very few ppl who actually know about touchflo
