[App Idea] Using HTC Touch pro touchpad to simulate a mousepointer - Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General

Dear all,
this topic has been raised already many times in the HTC Raphael Forum, but it seems like nothing happened yet.
The idea is to use the touch sensible area around the DPad to control a mousepointer on the Touch Pro device.
Link to other post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=477112&highlight=mouse+pointer
Is there somebody out there interested?
It would make many people happy I think.
Thanks and have a nice evening,
Bytecube

The best would be this mousepointer app in combination with something like SimpleOS.

Dear all,
I did some research (took very long time;-) on this topic and found two programs. One program is simulating a mousepointer which can be controlled by the D-PAD. THe other program is able to read the data of the touch sensitive pad of the lower area of the HTC Touch Pro. Both inclusive source code (attached).
First I tried to do it myself, but my programming skills of C++ is not enough and I failed. :-(
The simplest way would just be first to merge those two programs...
I attached all files, maybe somebody of you can help me?
Thanks in advance! This would really be a great and still missing app for the HTC Touch Pro.
Best regards,
Bytecube

Dear all,
after long time searching I found the answer: GScroll 1.5 Beta

In the new version of GScroll you can find GCursor which simulates a mouspointer which can be controlled by the touchpad.
Best regards,

FlowFX by Aspecto Software similar to TouchFLO on HTC Touch?!

Hello,
Since I'm not experienced with programming for windows mobile I have big wish on you guys.
I love the idea/technic how the GUI on HTC Touch works and hope it will be possible on my HTC Hermes one day too.
When I installed the newest version of WiFiFoFum I realized a great flipping effect between pages in this tool. Now I have even seen that the author of this program gives away the source code (http://www.aspecto-software.com/rw/applications/developer/flowfx/index.html).
Hope somebody can make us Cube GUI for any windows mobile device (at least for HTC Hermes )
your link is broken, the link is: http://www.aspecto-software.com/rw/applications/developer/flowfx/index.html
But i second this idea, i downloaded the demo, SOOO COOL tho i want it for the herald
thanks for the info. I've updated the link.
Yea this would be too cool!
could this transition be used perhaps with wisbar to go between desktop screens?
that would be pretty hot...
ok soooooo
wife wants to know how much I have to donate to get this to flip pictures instead of forms?
This would be perfect for rlToday and cLaunch.

New HTC P4350 Skins and/or UI

Hi All,
I'm new here, and just Registered. I haven't yet familiarised myself with this forum so if I'm posting in the wrong section or double posting, I do apologise before-hand.
I'm wondering if anyone can possibly please help me- I'm in desperate need of a new skin or two for my HTC P4530 - I'm quite tired of the three Windows Mobile 6.0 Skins and the HTC Default skin!
Does anyone know where I could download or get some new skins? Even a way to customise and make/create my own?
Secondly with there being a vast amount of HTC wizards out there- I'm wondering if anyone knows if it's possible to customise and change the HTC Home Screen to that of the newer HTC Modules like the HTC TyTN II or HTC Touch with that new User Interface, is it possible- I really love the colour scheme and its look!
So if anyone can help me or point me in a step towards the right direction, I'd really apprectiate it! Hope to learn alot from browsing these forums!
Thanks!!

I would love to help testing.
Required knowledge is no problem...
I use a Touch HD with Dutty V2 EXTREME ROM.
I hope, I can help!
Best regards!
I can also test, i got a Touch HD, with dutty 1.9, and one with the o2 Stock (OEM) Rom.
I have no problems with Registry editing, File editing,Manila Files , or Windows files/Filesystem.
The Required knowledges are no problem for me.
I hope I can help you.

Touch Pro 5.05.407.1 GER
Count me in.
yes botb app count me in
Hey i want to be a tester.
My Device: Touch HD
My Rom and others: look into my signature, its the original german rom from htc
Skills: I know the registry and can handle with it. Im also a beginning software developer for winmo (c# not vb ). If i will find a bug i would describe it so exactly how i can. File System etc. and errors i can interpretate and there isn't a problem.
A question:
Is it possible that you can change the name or publish an extra version like HD TF3D Config, hmm thats not sooooo good, or maybe just TF3D Config or what else. It's just attractions.
So i would spend my time for testing your software and in the opposite you will test maybe some programs/games from me in the future, if you want.

I know, the name is a problem. When I released the first version of my tool, only the Touch Diamond allready existed. Now there a lot of different devices (Touch Pro, Touch HD, etc.).
But on the other hand, the name of the tool is known from everyone. More than 200.000 to 300.000 users are still using my tool. If I rename my tool, noone knows that it is the same application ;-) I think the name of my tool is not the main feature of my tool ;-) So it doesn't matter how it is called.
By the way: A short comment to the video is welcome (about the new gui. if you like it or not).
i can also test it on my touch hd with on different roms. new and older manila.
I'll like to join the beta test team as well.
Device: Diamond Rom: Dutty Diam V4
I have no problems editing registry, locating manila files and minor editing them. I also have good knowledge of various graphics editing softwares.
if you still need a beta tester for the HD I will be glad to help you dude
I'm using the dutty rom v1.9 and I will flash this night with the lastest V2
And BTW, the new GUI is really awesome !!!! Nice job
edit : I'm working in a helpdesk (for airbus, as well), my skills are computer science technician since 15 years now, I'm not really good at programming (because I don't like it), my skills are network analysis, etc...
I've already helped some guys here, as beta tester, like Fingerkeyboard, WVD, the new MWC3 from Marshall that is coming and others... I've also been beta tetser for some ROM cookers and on my free time, I'm also a designer

1. The new gui is interessting but i would tell you more if im a tester
2. The fact that you will share your Touch Controls is very cool, but will it costs something? I think a bit is ok but not so much. I believe the whole high costs of software-developing "helpers" weaken the quality of software of the "new generation" of touch and so on.

First I developed those Controls just for my tool, but then I saw that those controls will give developers new possibilties to create new cool finger-frindly application for windows mobile, because there are still just a few apps which are finger-frindly. The price for the controls stands on the website, and I think the price is fair. Because developers will get updates (incl. new controls), bugfixes and support by e-mail and mirabyte-forum. This is very important for developers.

Ok i dont discuss when i dont know the product.
I will wait for the demo and then i will look whether i do need it or not.
But a question, is it very difficult to develop the screenslide effect? (i mean if key down -> touch move -> list will move in this direction)

Do you mean for lifetime or some years/months?
