Good TouchFlo interface? - JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General

Hi all,
Just wondering, I know the universal doesn't have a capable graphics chip, does anybody know whats a good touchflo interface, fast without so much lag, stable, lightweight?
I tried throttle launcher a while back, to resource intensive, super slow and buggy. Anyone got it right with the new one?
The best solution i guess is legendary SPB Mobile Shell 3. I guess that could work smoothly on the uni, but what's the memory (RAM) footprint like, since many of us are using the 64mb uni?
I've also seen alot of talk of Manilla or is it Touchflo 2d, so many forums, though mostly relating to newer phones.
Anyone who has found a great touchflo like interface for uni let us know. At the moment my today screen is all about quick access with SPB Pocket Plus Today and HTC Home VGA integrated to the Home page for that old touchflo look of the old original Touch.

My 64mb Uni does not support heavy graphics and I prefer good performance over nice looking
I´m using large HTC home VGA and works great

** Mobilityflow is going to release a new product called Touch Shell 3D **

Mobilityflow is going to release the new product called Touch Shell 3D as a component of Touch Commander Suite 4.0 - for Pocket PC Phones. The new product will provide you with the features similar to those of SPB Shell and the famous TouchFLO 3D installed on HTC Touch Diamond.
Touch Shell 3D features:
- Visual effects similar to those of TouchFLO 3D on HTC Touch Diamond
- Can show any third-party Today Plugins at the separate page
- Touch Pop-up Menus, Task Manager
- Compatibility with the most devices running Windows Mobile 5/6 (200 MHz CPUs, QWGA)
This product appeared soon after the release of the famous TouchFLO 3D for HTC Touch Diamond. With Touch Shell 3D you will be able to experience the ease of use similar to that of TouchFLO 3D and IPhone. You will also be able to enjoy special visual effects which will give you the impression of a three-dimensional space.
I can't wait to see this.......... I guess the Beta will be coming soon.

any visual links ?
would love to see this in action
http://www.coolsmartphone.com/news4137.html
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.
so lets wait a little, but it looks promising.

That all depends on the user, I have 7.4 lite and I love it better than all the others! If you are looking for something more like I phone you can flash the lite HTC home and install ifonez 1.1.2. Its a cool and very Iphone like. But like I said, Its all based on what you want out of your phone! The best thing to do is start in the Hacking Development section and just start installing things and trying them out. That way you get to know about your phone and its limitations! But most important, Read, read ,read! And dont be afraid to ask, we are here to help eachother! God bless.
Edit: Here you go, check this out...http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=436656
And Phonecanvas is the dialer used in some of the opentouch ROMs.
awesom reply dude. Thanks a lot.
I agree with DashMaster2000.
Version 7.4 TouchFlo2D is (in my opinion) the best ROM.
You have a lot of free storage space and there are only a few minor bugs.
But nevertheless alor credits to ttran001. He did a hell of a job...
My Opinion is 7.7 lite!
It comes without compression, so you don't have so much space, but it is faster and has no Manila 2D installed, so you can decide wich Interface you want!

i think the open touch with spb shell is the fastest with overclock

i would reccomend grabbing either 6.5 lite with no spb nd no tf or 7.7 lite and trying out a few of the iphone type theme's. or grabbing ivan's clean rom. i am currently using 7.5.1 pro with the updated icontact and have yet to see a problem. i have around 23MB of memory free after a day or two though the memory leaks and goes down to 20ish.

Yeah, I'm using 6.5 lite and it seems to me the fastest out of the bunch. Just overclock and viola.
overclock?
whats the easiest way to overclock on one of these roms, it seems like batterystatus thats cooked into the rom would let you overclock but I have no idea how to use it, some helpful links or suggetsions?

Use omapclockplus. Do a search. the latest version is 0.0.4 or something like that. BatteryStatus doesn't work.
Tried all the others..and I keep going back to 4.0 biggy.
I say the best is 6.5. Tried 7.7 and my .exe's didn't work. Plus, 6.5 lets me instal the t-mobile_customizations and my mms pics are the ORIGINAL size and not some ****ty 160x160 thumbnail .
Use HomeScreen Plus Plus to overclock. It also underclocks when your phone is sleepong which saves battery power .

I thought batterystatus has the same feature too..
Anyway, the most stable and fastest ROM in my opinion are the ones with HTC home screens.. Version 4 and version 5
They are both loaded with application..
With version 5 you would need to do the MMS thingy but its not that hard

Batterystatus was great but ended up being to complex with to much crap arounfd its original feature... Omap is the best option... try to overclock and if the speed is fine and as long as you have no surprise for a few hours, register the new speed so it is permanently set on your machine until a hard reset or a new flash...

Homescreen Plus Plus = Battery Status, theyre the same exact thing
but i think 7.5 Biggy is the best, im currently usinig 7.7 but its freezes too often. But im too lazy to reflash it so im waiting for ttran
Another vote for 6.5
The "black lite" version, with no touchflo or anything else. Lately I haven't even been running batterystatus/homescreen++ and the speed is fine, I might try omap soon.
For what it's worth, this seems to be the fastest, and most stable, plus I love the start menu using quickmenu, I'm very fast with it.
Another feature I recommend is the simple HTC home plugin for the today screen. It comes with the weather screen and launchers, photo dialer, etc. I also downloaded weatherbug for the today screen which has notified me three times this week of national weather service alerts in my area (very cool)
I used to hate iContacts, but the newer versions are much improved, and I like it now.
This is the most stable one I found when using a few gps programs simultaneously.
Hope it helps.
yea i agree that 6.5 lite is the fastest..ive tried every open touch rom and 6.5 is the most fastest to me

ROM TouchFlo 3D on polaris...

Hi everyone,
i'm new and not expert at all on how to cook a rom or anything like that, the only thing i can do is to flash
Since i'm interested in the different developements of the ROMs for polaris, do you think there will be the possibility of having a ROM containing the touchflo 3D, like the diamond, which will work well and be stable on polaris in the recent future?
Would be really really nice... i saw that the development is at a good stage... only is in VGA resolution...
HI,
is there a version for QVGA and runs smooth the only and big problem is that you can't turnOff the phone if TF3D is running

hi, is it the one from ITJE? If it's that i've already tried it, but it is still quite buggy and not very smooth (i think).
Can touchflo 3d be installed like for example manila 2d?
thanks

in my opinion, that rom is good just to have a feeling of what TF3D feels like on a polaris... it seems to be a really nice thing...
so maybe i gave you an idea for your next rom... if you would like to develop it, i would be very grateful!! i really like the manila 2d interface, but of course not as much as the TF3D, which is more modern and intuitive.

[REQ]Smart Zone Interface from Gigabyte S1200 and

Hey guys this just came out from the barselona (sorry typo) but I just had to show everybody this new UI from Smart Zone. Its a really nice interface and is put together very well. If any body has any connect please extract it once it comes out so we can get hard at work porting it.(vga, qvga, wvga etc) happy hunting. video link here i wish there was a way to stick this but the mods will decide.
I really love that interface!!!
Can anyone get this one to my HTC Diamond? That would be great.
Looks quite nice but doesn't appear to be stable yet

Pretty cool! Hope somebody can get their hands about this baby!

the ui isnt out yet, the device it is running off of is wvga. So there would have to be some modifications but we wont know if its possible till we can see how it was made

yeah I noticed it froze at the end, but when they came out with tf3d it still had bugs and continues to have bugs. I would preffer to have this ui since im no to fond of the honey comb and tf3d is really primitive to other phone ui. I just so annoyed on how slow it is.
I thick the interface was made by flash.

you are correct sir

If we had a decent fullscreen flash today plugin or "player", we could have this and much more for any of our devices...
The problem is also the older device's video drivers speed and CPU, on 400mhz is still slow. And flash will always be a battery-hog.
Throttle launcher's flash compatibility is good, but it has much more stuff than its required for this.

about The Manila 3D

I have htc touch cruise 09 with the manila 2D.
Can I Install manila 3D in my phone????
If I Can plz giv me the link for dawnload .
thank you so match
Manila 3D needs a 3D graphic-chip like in "Touch HD". The Iolite hasn´t it. So M3D from 3D-Devices will not work. Maybe some 3rd Party-apps will be coming soon with look´n feel like M3D, for instance SPB MobileShell 4 or PointUI 3? Or a software, that emulates the 3D-chip?
Wait for a bugfree Mobile7, it´s more important like M3D
Greetings!
Well, I am little confused now. I read thread OpenGL ES Test and some guy with Jade posted, that 3D test app works on his device. Doesn't Jade have same chipset (MSM7225) without dedicated graphic-chip as Iolite? Therefore there are two options, first is, that guy with Jade doesn't tell truth, second is, that 3D apps, like TF3D, should work on MSM7225, even without dedicated graphic-chip.
Btw. I don't think, we really need TF3D on Iolite. TF2D works pretty good and fast and with FingerSuite even better.

What a great tip!
FingerSuite works fine on Iolite! (without OpenGL!)
Download and user instructions - HERE!
Thanks for this tip!
Yes works perfect, I use it from the first day I bought this device, it's perfect.
And also pointui home 2 works flawlessly on lolite. I never used manila after that.
