WMP Today plugin - Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General

Hi,
After many searches, the only WMP today plugin I found that was working on my phone (Touch HD) was the i-mate WMP Today Plugin (see the attachments below).
The problem is that the icons are really tiny, and it's almost useable with fingers. So, I tried to update the DLL with ResHack to have bigger icons, but when I do so, it disappears from the today plugins page. I think it might be a problem with a signature or somewhat else, but I can't change the pics.
Could a dev master here update the dll with higher-res pics to use this great plugin with fingers ?
Thank you very much.

where did you get that qa3 skin ? or is it custom made? can you link ?
Here is my today.
Done with rlToday in XML. Most of the icons are home made. The layout and everything is pretty much from scratch.
I dont use Athena.. but .. here u go ..
Here is the link to the place where I got it from. I wish I could make something like that. All credit goes to Buzzard.

This requires WA2/WA3 and WAD. You will need to put together the skin for WAD.
Here's mine
I use WA3, PocketWeather, and Resco's File Explorer

Nice Anik. Keep em coming getting a few good ideas, just a matter of finding the time for customising now....perhaps less time posting more time pimping

Notes:
Screenshot_1: all the pics in the background updates randomly every 10mins; the buttons on the right side toggles (shows/hides) when I press that area; the wifi/bluetooth/missedcalls/etc notification changes icons upon activation.
Screen10: same as Screenshot_1, but doesn't change the wallpaper; the weather satellite image updates every 12hrs (phone goes online and gets the updated image from my webserver [which has a code that crops the weather.com Asia image into just Philippines]).
Screen08: this is what I am using now; ringtones complete with super mario mixes; love it.
Screen007: I used this when I first got (borrowed acutally, company-issued, sigh) a Macbook Pro, and I just tried copying the look-and-feel; the single photo one the left side changes every 10mins; the weather satellite images changes too, same logic with Screen10.
I'll create a new one in the future.

The differences between the 2 TF3D cabs and other things !!

I had the first TF3D cab installed on 10/31 on my Xperia till 3 days ago. i then did a hard reset and installed the new cab posted by itje.
the differences are quite remarkable: at least 50% faster than the first one, much more stable and dose'nt slow down after a while, all panels are working including audio, albums and youtube.
the only thing that i noticed, still no support to certain bluetooth functions, also your bluetooth connection drops if you had the WiFi on bug.
it integrates nicely with my BMW 650 I-Drive and i get all my phone book " more than 300 contacts" up in less than one minute.
I also noted that installing Dashwire slows the Xperia greatly.
and finally installing the above cab did not mess window media player and i can still see my videos.
All the Best !
Did you use the panel install for either one of those? Im asking because I dont know if itje cab is compatible with the panel install, the first one by daran works great with the panel installed.
I used the Panel install on both cabs.

I did the same thing. First the TF3D of Daran. Then a hard reset. Then Manilla HD from itje. Installs fine and is quite responsive.
However: Album is really not working. Nor does YouTube.
This was done on a Dutch VF machine.
Really hope for improvements in the future.

Thanks for clearing this!
What about the language? I got a german X1, will this mess up my whole device?
interesting. It looks like the standalone youtube cab and the manila cab (that packs youtube as well) are different then. I installed the standalone youtube cab and it screw up the video playback.

heyyy after installing the cab....im unable to see this manilla hd thingy......after goin to settings>today>items i cant see any hd plugin either....wat could possibly be wrong???
im using the default WM panel..
Well, there's a beta 2 for Daran's cab and beta 3 will supposedly be out next week, whereas for itje's there hasn't been any new updates. Since your installation of Daran's cab was on 10/31, could it be that you're using beta 1? The results of your comparison might be different if you did a comparison using beta 3.

Plugin to work with PocketBreeze (and Manilla Control)

Hi there!
I have decided that I need something more business oriented for my diamond's today screen, so I am using Manilla control to work with pocket breeze (in order to get best of both worlds). Now what I need is a plugin which works well on my diamond, pocket breeze and manilla control and gives you time, missed calls and smss. I have tried to install the HTC Home plugin but i had to hard reset the phone ... since it did not want to get past startup! Thats why I decided to ask this time...
I m sure you have plenty of options and ideas ... maybe you could post a screenshot too of the application you propose...
Thanks,
Franklin
I'm in the same situation as you, I don't think you'll find a solution to directly integrate PB into TF3D. You'll have to change to another user interface that supports 3rd party plugins eg. Wisbar AD and a few others.
It's a shame HTC didn't include 3rd party plugin support in the new TF3D 2.
Yeah
Yesss... I know that you can't use both ... what I am asking is what plugin (3rd part) is compatible with manilla controller (used to switch between touchflo and today screen) and pocket breeze to add some phone info!
You mentioned on program there ..are there anyother ones worth mentioning? I wanted a HTC Home Plugin sort of effect (missed calls, sms and a clock)
Thanks for any replys.
Well for notifications, missed calls, SMS, Emails etc I use PhoneAlarm by PocketMAX, the latest version has many different types of skins etc and itself is a fairly powerful program.

[APP]HTC Audio Manager 2.2 VGA

Since binning TF3D in favour of Mobile Shell 3, the main thing I have been missing is the tf3d audio manager. I have been searching all day and come up with a load of qvga cab and some skins. It seems the skins I have found are for an earlier version and not compatible with the newer one. I found a VGA audio manager over in the athena forum but it was an older build not supporting album art and the menus are not so finger friendly. The only 2.2 versions I could find were qvga and so not really usable in the top left of the screen. Yes I have s2p and tcpmp and core and nitrogen and windows media player, but I like the library feature of HTC Audio Manager. So if anyone can point me to a cab I would be most great full.
Edit: see post no.5 for a fully working .cab by member onlinespending
Coincidence enough, I found this today:
http://rapidshare.com/files/191970484/HTC_Audio_Manager_2.2_1822.3925_L0.cab
I downloaded it just to see if there were viruses, and I didn't find anything, but I didn't install myself. Since it's on Rapidshare I would be extra careful. I can't say if it's QVGA or VGA, but it's a start!
If not, v.2.0 is available from PPCKitchen: http://www.ppckitchen.org/forums/local_links.php?action=jump&catid=1&id=37
Hope this helps a bit.
Thanks for the links, I will check them out. In the mean time I just found this one which I am installing first.
So I tried the pdaviet audio manager and it is the old version again. I downloaded the one from the above rs link and it is the newer version but only qvga. So I re-sized all the images in the cab with this tool and then copied them into my windows folder and this is what I have ended up with, not quite right, does anyone else want to have a crack at it?
You can't just resize the images, you need to edit the XML files as well.
I just did this and here is the file.
HTC_Audio_Manager_2.2_1822.3925_L0-VGA.cab
Thanks onlinespending, that works great on my 6.5 rom.

Thank you very much,you make it sound so easy, I had a look at the xml files but it was over my head. And I confirm that this now works 100% including album art!

Glad you like it! Thanks for finding the standalone Audio Manager 2.x cab. Now that a lot of people use the WM6.5 titanium over TouchFlo2D/3D, the embedded Audio Manager will no longer work. I agree that Audio Manager is more finger friendly and nicer to navigate than WMP. But I can't flick through my songs very easily. I have to use the side scroll bar. Are you experiencing the same thing?
Yes, I know what you mean, the tf3d version is still better to use, especially the slide along bottom bar and being able to flick to the next track but this is still a big improvement for me. I tried all the mp3 players I could find and found pocket player to be the best but it takes ages to load and is quite heavy on the processor and therefore on the battery compared to audio manager. As for scrolling with the dreaded side bar, I now use GScroll which is really great, but still needing a few tweaks, it adds a lot of functionality to the capacitive touch pad. Any way a few nice VGA skins and I think we have a winner. Thanks again for taking the time and effort to sort it out.
Wonder how it is on WVGA?
Skins
I found a few VGA skins here, but I have not installed any of them yet, I suspect they are for the older version. They might be worth a look as food for thought to anyone thinking of building a new skin.

widen scroll bar
i like audio manager much more than windows media player and the audio manager included with manilla. thanks for this great cab. do anyone how i can widen the scroll bar, i would like to make it more finger friendly, if its in the XML, then which xml and what settings or line do i change, thank again
Is there a WVGA one for X1? The cab extracted from Blackstone is not working on X1.
Any update or newer version than can finger scroll with wm 6.5?
Do I still need Manilla to run it?
Anybody know how to disable album art?Its freezing the player and its one album art for all tracks which is annoying.Cheers
here's a WVGA version, usable for example on Xperia X1 stock ROMs.

1-totally skinned and finger friendly to replace all aspects of widows mobile interface. the basically did what MS should have done ages ago
2-the amazing video and sound editer
3-video player with support for mpeg4 and xvid
4-the fingerfriendly image viewer
5-the task switcher
6-the cube interface, L&W modes and the touchwhiz2
7-other apps like podcast&RSS , OCR for recording contacts information, new music id medomi application,new file explorer and calander
video and more info http://pocketnow.com/review/samsung-omnia-ii-i8000-1?p=2
so, where can we download the omniaPro/ii ROMs so we can start extracting the cabs and packages to port them to our devices

very true matey ... it would be awesome if someone can port the apps to htc touch hd ....
How about the skinned file manager, and midomi?
im having an issue finding the ROM bbut there are people over here who already have the omnia 2 would someone post instructions on how to dump the installed rom so they upload it for us.
there is a lot of thing to like about their customized software
I would love to see some of these application on my Touch Diamond. The skinned file manager, and Touch player especially!
I would probably kill for the task manager...thats what I've been craving for months now. Also the SMS and Email app is a must have. Don't want the phone..just the software
The resolution is different, so it's very hard to port these apps to Omnia I
I've watched PocketNow's Youtube i8000 software tour and it is simply incredible. I've heard quite a bit of negative things about the Omnia II i8000, but the software tour provided by PocketNow really made it shine.
The interface was very fast (in some cases, as fast as the custom ROMs available on XDA) and the available software was simply unreal. The video editor and cube were particularly nice, but I believe Samsung also got the first Windows Mobile version of Midomi ever making it that much better.
I can't wait for the QWERTY Samsung B7610 to finally come out.
i found this thread. the omnia II rom dump is uploaded in mediafire here
hope this is enough for people over here to start
some apps are already extracted here http://www.mediafire.com/?sharekey=7f364dce2089ae8a4c17ca8801618ef78fe1cb5b49933873b8eada0a1ae8665a

Smartmemo.rar --Didnt Not Load, No errors message, just a [Ping] sound.
TCalendar.rar -- Loads but app is in VGA.
Tclock.rar -- Loads but app is in VGA.
Looks real nice though, if only they worked in wqvga.
i added a picture of my xperia in the first post
also a cool guy posted a nice story about all this in pocketnow. i hope now we get enough attention from the devs here to port the rest

Samsung Omnia II Apps Being Extracted for Other Devices

There should be more developments once they dump the ROM and more people get involved, which is the main focus of the thread. Visit the MoDaCo thread and keep an eye on the dedicated Omnia II extraction thread at XDA for any progress and to test the apps.
How many of you are waiting for a functioning Midomi app to be ported? I know I am. Hopefully patience pays off.

Has anyone tried these on the Diamond?
Update: Tried TCalendar and Phonebook. TCalendar seems to work at first glance looks really nice, however, I cannot add any appointments or anything and the menu softkey makes the screen go crazy. Phonebook just gives me a a black screen with only the keyboard button in the down right corner.
Need Midomi..
Downloaded and tried Tcalender. ..
It worked as u can see in the pic, but it fails to creat new appointment or to access the menu soft key ??? apart from the first home screen nothing else is working.
Edit: I have Xperia X1i, Official R3AA UK ROM
Tested the TCalendar on the HTC Touch Diamond 2 (Topaz) with the Custom ROM Topaz Essentials
Viewing of the Calendar works fine (although quite slow) - but opening the menu or adding a new entry does not work
Oh.Can't dl from mediafire
who can upload to rapidshare for a mirror?
Only need the Part02 Disk1 dump files(part1.rar part2.rar part3.rar)
thanks very much!!!
I just want to search into the dump folder for any other files needed to load the apps!
Just a quick update from a Touch HD running pkoper's EPS HDX WM6.1 ROM:
- TCalendar: starts, shows appointments (in all views), looking good. Navigating to dates works. Menus, however, don't work properly. And it's all in Hungarian.
- TClock: doesn't start ("components not found").
N.
i think these compressed executables are missing other supporting files thats why they are refusing to run. a proper cab of each of the omnia application need to be created. lets keep an eye on the modaco thread for now
