iPhoneToday - iPhone conversion the easy way - Simple guide by Indiacam
Probably the most easiest Reference Manual to convert your WMDevice into iPhone.
Thanks to MiToNiOeS for this cool application (Click for his original post here).
Features
1) Easy to install
2) No need to do manual editing in any setup file like icons.xml and settings.xml . Its all ready to use and are in right place.
3) Takes very small amount of memory, say less than 100kb (65+kb as per developer) and so ideal to install on device with less memory, example Atom Life.
4) Consumes very low battery power or let us say almost nothing as this is just another today plugin with just normal shortcuts, hence you get more battery time.
5) Perfectly works in landscape mode too with no error.
6) Works and tested ok on WQVGA, QVGA, VGA, etc..

How to Install iPhone on QVGA devices:
USE THIS INFORMATION AT YOUR OWN RISK
Step A: Installation
1) Download iPhoneTodayFolder-n-Settings.zip and extract to your pc in any temporary folder. Also download iPhoneToday0.9.5 stable version
2) Copy folders and files on Memory Card in any temporary folder to install one by one.
3) Copy whole "iPhoneToday" folder, including all files and subfolers (folder names are -> "icons" and "skin"), from Memory Card to ROOT of your device (Internal Memory, not sdcard). Just confirm that "SKIN" folder is also copied inside iPhoneToday folder.
4) Install iPhoneToday0.9.5 to device(internal memory)
5) Disable/Uncheck all items from Setting>Today>Items
6) Reset your phone, Installation finishes when device restarts
7) OPTIONAL: Now you can install "PureBlack2_QVGA.cab" which is cool black compatible theme. And enable the theme by selecting "PUREBLACK2" theme in Settings>Today>Apperance. You will find this theme in iPhoneTodayFolder-n-Settings.zip file. Or you can install any other suitable theme if it should look good.
Step B: Icon creation
1) Enable only "iPhoneToday" in Settings>Today>Items. Click OK. Now wow....iPhone screen appears with few already configured icons. Now you are ready to edit or delete some icons which are not properly visible and you can add more icons you want, with the help of UI Manager (Icon Settings in Image shown below)
2) Click stylus for 2 second on screen and Add Icon, Select Execute Program, Icon image if you want else leave blank, the program will automatically take icon from exe file. Click ok. This is called UI Manager which adds or deletes icons. Using UI Manager, while adding icon you can select SCREEN Number (Page No) for icon (-1,0,1,2,3,4,5,6 or 7).
0 is for first page icon, 1 for second page... and so on... More information on this is below...
3) You can change background image from Settings>Today>Appearance>Select "Use this picture as background" and browse to select your favorite image with proper screen size. Right now its black image for good visibility of icons, but you can use your own.
UI Manger
(also known as ICON SETTINGS see image below)
UI Manager is very simple to use. It appears after pressing stylus for 2 secongs on iPhoneToday screen or icon, you either say ADD ICON or EDIT ICON. The next screen appears is UI Manager.
With UI manager, here is what you can do:
Screen: This is actually a page number of icon from -1 to 7
Select -1 is for bottom four fixed icons (which stay fixed on all pages)
Select 0 for 1st page, 1 for 2nd page, and so on upto 7 (Total 8 Pages)
Icon: This is simply a serial number of icon on selected page. Give any priority number and see what happens. Generally should be 0 to 11 (for 12 icons on one page. I do not recommend more than 12 icons on one screen/page.
Name: Name of the icon to appear below each icon
Image: (optional) Select any BMP or PNG file for actual icon, leave blank if not available, UI Manager will take the icon automatically from EXE file. You will find most iPhone icons in "\iPhoneToday\Icons" folder of your device which you copied in 3rd step of installation. Try to use most of these for real iPhone look. You can select other icons for rest of the programs from anywhere else. Be sure the icons files are copies in above device folder only and not in Memory Card to avoid icon loss problem when you remove memory card.
Type: If this is a special icon, select it, otherwise keep NORMAL. For example for SMS icon select New sms option or for Calls icon select Missed Calls, SMS (Unread Messeges), etc.
Execute: Select Actual EXE program or Link (*.lnk) that runs when the icon is pressed.
Parameters: (optional) this is a command or setting used for the program being run. For example if you have a program that dials a number, this is where you would put the phone number
ExecuteAlt: (optional) What runs when the icon (special icon) has a status, if any.
ParamsAlt: (optional) this is a command or setting used for the Alt program being run if any.
Launch Animation: (optional) If selected the screen animates to expand the white box and new application starts from that white box. Completely optional. Dont select if you have slower device.
===========================================
Icons.XML and Settings.XML is optimized by me for QVGA device as I only have QVGA device.
===========================================
THIS APPLICATION WORKS PREFECTLY WELL ON ALMOST ALL WM DEVICES. QVGA, VGA, WQVGA, WVGA, etc. Only you need to modify value in following line in settings.xml found in iPhoneToday folder you just copied.
<screenHeigth>267</screenHeigth>
for QVGA__(320x240) keep screenheight = 267
for WQVGA_(320x240) keep screenheight = 347
for VGA___(640x480) change screenheight and iconwidth too. Do some tests with different values.
Other working setting are still coming...
WORKS PERFECT IN LANDSCAPE MODE TOO
OPTIONAL:
With neoNoBar 2.0, you can hide/disable bottom bar as mentioned in Tito's post. Thanks Tito...
DOWNLOAD neoNoBar 2.0 at link given below. If 2.0 does not work properly, Try NeoNoBar 1.3.
HONESTLY SPEAKING I DONT RECOMMEND NEONOBAR, AND IT DOES NOT WORK WIH SPB MOBILE SHELL AND ALSO CLASHES WITH WAD2. NOT RECOMMENDED TITO'S SCREENSHOT

iPhoneToday Resources and supporting files
Create your own shortcuts (*.lnk files) for linking to icons.
DOWNLOAD CUSTOMIZED SHORTCUT LIST
In shortcut list file you will find many single line command lines which you can save in seperate text files with any name but with extension (*.lnk) LNK stands for windows shortcut or link file, similar to shortcuts on desktop.

You are right I optimized for QVGA and collecting exact settings for other size screens too. This home plugin runs on almost all WM5 and WM6 devices.

yes its far better and easier than iFonz0.8. In fact the original post with original cab file was too confusing and was not explained how to install properly. Many things were assumed. I tried to put them in simple english and step-by-step guide helps a lot, which very few people know how to put it in words

Its very simple to solve this problem. Just reduce screenheight setting one pixel at a time, I mean if you are using 534, then try 533, then try 532 and finally you will get a perfect number which will work both in portrait and landscape mode. I dont have vga, else I would have told you exact number.
I also request you to give that exact working iconwidth and screenheight number for the sake of all vga users here.

Hello jaya and all newbies....requesting please please read first post carefully and also remaining posts before your question here. Its all given there.
1) You can select special icons by selecting TYPE of icon when you are in icon settings (ui manger) page.
2) Notifications are original as available in 6.5 screen. Indicator is shown as usual on top bar.
3) I am sure everyone knows how to change background in WM. But its ok. Repeating here : You can change background image from Settings>Today>Appearance>Select "Use this picture as background" and browse to select your favorite image with proper screen size.
Once again newbies read carefully. Reading is good for everyones health
I managed to configure SMS notifications linking it to /windows/start menu/programs
Everything seems to be ok. wall paper still doesnt change to the 1 i have on WM 6.5 (even if you change the wall paper on today settings). any idea how we can link a clock icon to diplay the exact system time? this is completely awesome.
Thanks indicam,
good expl.,some screens (I used nuenobar 2 ), btw the white bar in landscape appears only when I activate Capsure, otherwise ok.
nueNoBar 2.0

Thanks and glad you liked the guide.
I am adding information about freeware nueNoBar as you mentioned.
nueNoBar 2.0 (homepage)
Description
nueNoBar disables the bottom bar on the today screen, giving you more space on the today screen. The softkeys are still functional in this mode.
nueNoBar is WM 5, 6 and 6.1 compatible, and should run on WM 6.1 builds 20000+ as well. nueNoBar is donationware, so please donate to support nueNoBar and nueRom development. Please do not mirror this file, but link visitors to this page for the latest version.
Note: Please be sure to reset after you install if you are using the cab. It doesn't work with manila (manila makes its own bar).
Changelog
2.0 Complete rewrite, tries to intelligently detect new Microsoft tricks (er, bugs)
1.3 Fix bottom alignment issue, fix bar sometimes appears.
1.2 Fix “service restart required” issue, phonealarm issue
1.1 Fix issue with weatherpanel
1.0 First Release
Download from main thread.

After about a week of work I have a set of three themes that provide a consistent look on my WM6 device. The one shown below is pShades-Rainbow. I initially had just a HTC-Touch Dialpad theme, but decided to take the time and create a PocketCM theme to match. Eventually I will have a full set for each dialpad theme in the above link. I am also willing to entertain custom themes as time permits. pShades fully supports portrait and landscape modes for QVGA screens. Let me know what you think!

- pShades-Grass
- pShades-WaterRock
- pShades-Calvary
- pShades-Dew
- pShades-pcDude
- pShades-Transformers
- pShades-Rainbow
Examples:
Includes:
The Theme zip file includes the following files:
Today Theme .tsk file
Dialpad Theme .zip file
PocketCM Theme .zip file
Portrait and Landscape .jpg files for S2U2 backgrounds
Sample .jpg file (seen above)
Requirements:
These files are dependent on the following applications. Listed are the version I am running.
Today - WM 5 or 6 (WM6)
Dialpad - HTC Touch Dialer
PocketCM - 0.20 or newer (0.20)
S2U2 - Any (0.99p)
To Install:
Today Theme:
Copy the .tsk file to the root of your device (or "My Documents" dir) and select via Start->Settings->Today
Dialpad Theme:
Unzip all images (png files) to your /windows directory. They will overwrite the existing HTC Touch Dialpad images. Next, reboot your phone, or disable the radio (airplane mode) and end the cprog.exe program. Re-enable the phone and you should be good.
PocketCM Theme
Copy the .zip file to the /Program Files/PocketCM/ dir (installation dependent). Go into PocketCM and select the theme from the "Options" screen.
S2U2 Backgrounds
Copy the images to the /Program Files/S2U2/gfx/ directory as file names wallpaper.jpg and wallpaperL.jpg for both portrait and landscape. To be honest, I use S2V to set my wallpapers for S2U2.
To Request:
If you like this style and would enjoy having a custom theme set just ask. I will need an image or both the portrait and landscape modes. Or an image large enough to be used for both. Depending on the response I will try to get them done within a a week. Family takes up much of my time.
Thanks:
To Michaelr219 for his wonderful Battery Status theme. It can be found with his iStyle theme.
To DvTonder who's green WM6 theme for PocketCM inspired me to create my own.
NICEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE one .... keep up the good work , bro

Humm. Must be because I am using Total Commander. Try disabling you phone (radio) and closing the cprog.exe program. You may need a tool to view processes and end them. In WM list of running programs.
Anyone else experience this or have a solution.?
First THANKS 4 fast reply,
Will test it with TC, I'm such a newbie^^, just started modding my phone, kay TC
I've already disabled my phone but didn't find the cprog.exe process, Okay,I will search a TaskTool to find it out
when disableing my phone, i cannot copy the PNG-files via PC(USB), cuz i don't have access to my phone-.-
I'm desperate...!

I am sure with the help of the nice folks around here we can figure it out. I wouldn't think disabling the phone (airplane mode) would diable activesync? To be honest, I am a Linux guy so I have never tried copying files via activesync (assuming this is what you are doing).
It might be worth trying something like WM5torage to mount your SD card (if you have one) and then copy them over to /windows from within the phone. That is how I do it anyway. Let me know if you get it working!
Okay, I will never ever copy files via activesync again
THX 4 the TC advice, works well after i have killed all processes xD
BUT^^ after rebooting the dialpad, there is still the same old boring style like before do i have to start the Dialpad extra?^^
Sry 4 my Newbie Questions and sorry for annyoing you
Btw. i installed a Taskmanager called "duttythroy" taskmanager found here, but i can't find it on my phone.^^
I thought i killed the processes with Start->Preferences->(the normal WM6 one) taskmanager?! is Duttythroy only an add-on/extension OR does it run on its own?! im confused.
I only search a tool that shows all processes and let me kill them...

Humm, assuming you have the HTC-Touch Dialer installed from the link above and the images actually copied over to the /windows folder you should have the new dialpad after a reboot or soft resets. The only reason the "end" the cprog.exe process is to load the new images without having to reboot.
As for the taskmanager? I am not familiar with that one, nor did I find much about it. I use TaskManager and love it! Hope this helps.
Nice looking themes.
Glad to see my work helping others make great pocketcm themes
Keep up the good work!
today item order..
PhilD41... first off, these look a pure work of art dude..
OTOH.. how did you get HTC Home plugin to "move" from the top spot on the today screen and have something else show above it??
Whenever I try to do this in setting>personal>today> move item up or down on today, it doesn't let anything go above it! I'm just trying to get Windows Live Search box to go on top so whenever I tap in it, it doesn't get totally covered by my PocketCM Keyboard and making me force to turn landscape mode or or flip the keyboard out in my Tilt...
Sorry for being off topic.. but I just couldn't resist.

Two ways to do it:-
1. You have to edit the Registry
Look in:
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Today\Items\HTC Home
Change 'Type' from 5 to 4
Stop and start the HTC Home from settings. You can now go into the usual Today options and put the plugins in any order you want.
2. Or use HTC Home Customizer by choosing unlock in options menu u can move HTC Home anywhere u want.
2 questions....
1) What Today Plugin do you have on top? The one with the Speed Dials? Is it simply PhoneWeaver?
2) What's your process when it comes to getting your PhotoContact pictures to look glassy like that? I've been wondering lately how I can set something like that up but I don't know the dimensions of the contact picture and I'm not sure I want to photoshop all my contact pictures.
Best Regards,
Nik

Thanks, I am glad you like them! They took some time, but I really enjoy having the same feel across my phone! I see that tjkhattak61 answered the HTC Home question. Although, it isn't HTC Home. It is Battery Status with the mentioned theme. I think there are a few HTC Home themes for BS.

That would be SPB Phone. I use to use more of the functions, but now just use it as a quick launch and profile change. I think there are several apps out there that do this.

Unfortunately, I am still photoshoping (Gimping) my contact images. I don't know of any program that will display a png with alpha so I am doing it the hard way. I did write a script-fu scrip for the GIMP that automates it. It makes it a little easier.
Thanks for the feed back!!
pShades-Calvary Added
Okay, next addition is up. pShades-Calvary is the first red theme. I am tempted to complete the red reptile theme, but haven't gotten around to it yet. Hope you like it. Anyone have a favorite background they would like to see pShaded?
pshades-pcDude Added
One more for the collection. I still have one or two more I am hoping to get done sometime this week. Still not sure which one I am going to use on my phone. Until then, enjoy my pcDude!

Just added pShades-Savior. Created it around my Avatar. We will see how long it lasts on my phone. Hope you enjoy!
moGo beta v.0.4
moGo is now independent
The new version of moGo no longer needs the freestyl server. At the moment this most likely will not mean to much to you guys but it means moGo is no longer restricted to the freestyl features. The new server pushes data to moGo to save on power as previously moGo had to ask the server to see if there where changes at regular intervals.

Features:
Finger friendly application launcher
Quick dial of favourite friends
Highly configurable menus and menu items
Missed call/sms/email notifications
Slide to quick launch(needs to be set in sets.txt)
Vibrate on touch(needs to be set in sets.txt, also probably not recommended)
Requirements:
.net compact 2.0
flashlite 2.1
How to use:
download and unzip the .CAB file
Transfer moGoInstall.CAB file to phone then click file to install.
INSTALL ONTO DEVICE!
Look in programs and run mogo.
Config:
There is still no easy config app but you can delve into the settings by editing the sets.txt file. In this file are a lot of setting values where you can change the wallpaper, icons and the menu items. After editing the sets.txt file you will need to re launch moGo.
Change wallpaper
wall=wallpapers/01.jpg -- after the = sign put the location of your own wallpaper
Change icons
menuIcon1=Phone.png -- change Phone.png to the icon you want to use. You can find icons in the icons folder.
Change menu Items
m1_iName1=Contacts -- This is the menu item title
m1_iDesc1=See a list of your conacts -- A small description
m1_iIcon1=Contacts.png -- The icon of the menu item
m1_iType1=launch -- Launch type. Can be: launch,web,call
m1_iAction1=\Windows\addrbook.lnk -- Depending on the launch type. Either location of app, web address or phone number
Multiple menus
It is possible to add your own menu. You can currently have up to 4 menus per button.
m1_Menus=3 -- This needs to be set to the correct number of menus you want.
The following would create a third menu for the phone button. Having m111 means it is the 3rd menu. m1111 would be the forth.
&m111_Style=big&m111_Ani=fromB&

&m111_Style=big -- means it is using the 4 big menu items style. Setting it to grid would make it use a 9 item grid menu. If using the grid you will need to add more items to the menu.
&m111_Ani=fromB -- This means the menu animation will slide from the bottom. Other options are "fromU" is slide from the top, "fromL", slide in from the left and "fromR", slide in from the right.
Slide to quick launch
&slideLeft_iType=none&slideLeft_iAction=\Windows\fexplore.exe&slideLeft_iIcon=FileExplorer.png&
&slideLeft_iType=none -- This means the slide to launch is off. Set it to "launch" and add the correct location to launch an application like a locker program for example. You can set an icon for it. You could also set it to ring someone by using the iType=call setting.
Possible problems:
I have built a brand new moGoServer instead of using freestyl and I have found the xmlsocket class in flashlite a little flaky. I do believe that I have found a good work around to make it stable though. See if you have any problems and let me know.
I only see a black window titled moGoServer...
You either do not have flashlite 2.1 installed or flashlite is not associating .swf files. If you have flashlite installed run it and open a swf file manually by clicking open. You can find a swf file in the flashlite folder or moGo folder. Now it wil associate swf files and you never ned to do it again. Restart moGo.
Download moGo v.0.4
Hope you like it
Steve
very nice and clean
it would be nice to make top bar in the same color
Gives me a black window named moGoServer when I run moGo in Programs.

Have you got FlashLite 2.1 installed?
If you have flashlite installed and you still get the black screen open a swf file manually with flashlite by running flashlite, clicking open and finding a .swf file. There's one in the flashlite folder or moGo folder. After thats done close it and run moGo again. Flashlite would have associated swf files with it now so you will never need to do that again.
I'll edit the first post so it has this info in it now.
thks for this very nice log; the "call history" don't work ...
Very nice!! Working on some customization now.
Fantastic first release. Great work! I love how quick and clean it is.
Suggestions for future releases:
Weather
RSS Reader
include # of voicemails along with SMS, email, and missed calls.
Keep up the good work.
Thanks.
kinda cool, but it would be nice if it auto saw all your applications. still testing it some though.
@ monamibouli
Have you got the tCallHistory.exe file. It should be in your windows folder by default really. Sometimes yet rarely I have found windows mobile wouldn't launch my call history at all until I restarted.
@ mfrost67
Nice. I would love to see some screen shots when your finished. Same with anyone else who may be adding their own skin. In the following versions I will increase the skinning ability of moGo too.
@ bigevs
Personaly I dont use weather apps but you're the second person to ask for it so I guess I should do it. RSS reader would be cool and I totally agree with the voice notification which will defiantly be in the next version.
@ ROCOAFZ
Yeah I have already thought about that. I think the way I will do it is still have a favourites menu type thing but then have a show all programs button that will launch a list view.
I've had some time to tinker around with this program and I am still loving it. I've used itask animated, freestyl, and several other set-ups and I like this one the best. It works great for my fat fingers and it seems to be very stable. A few thoughts on how to make it even better...
*Ability to include today plug-ins on a page
*Next appointment on today screen
*Bluetooth icon on home page
*More customization options such as:
*Option to remove curtain under the clock on the homepage
*Ability to change background on every page
*Time and date format
I can't wait for the next release. This program is fantastic.
Thanks bigevs,
A lot of your suggestions are being worked on for the next release. What do you mean by "Ability to include today plug-ins on a page" suggestion.
this is working for my dopod 818 pro??
thanks...

Sorry. I meant embedding today plug-ins into moGo so that you could cycle between them. I've seen other programs that do this (i.e. Throttlelauncher)
I use Today Agenda, and it would be nice to incorporate that into moGo so I don't have to close moGo to see it on the today screen. I would rather have them integrated together. Or, you could build your own calender/tasks app.
I also seem to be having a little trouble with the SMS notifier updating in a timely manner. Did I mess somethihg up, or is this a known issue?
EDIT: It works fine if I hit the Outlook icon and then SMS inbox, but doesn't work if I tap the Blue SMS notifier.
Once again, great job! Keep up the good work.

I second this request I have been looking for a launcher like moGo that would also incorporate today plugins. I've been trying to get the iFonz developer to do it, but I think he has too manu requests as it is . Having a page for today plugins would be great, then I could have phonealarm and my schedule(schedule = most important to me), on a single page with easy access to moGo. Just a suggestion .
I will have to look into incorporating the today plugins. Any ideas on how you would like this to work? I think I will have to install a plugin to test this out.
@ bigevs
The blue SMS notifier button is linked to the same lnk file as the menu item labelled SMS Inbox. If you are having trouble with one you should be having trouble with the other. So i'm not sure what is happening there. The notification is hard coded to use the lnk file too so you couldn't of messed anything up in the sets.txt file.

[UPDATE][10/10/2008] TouchLaunch 0.0.3! so beautiful ( NET2&NET3.5 ) with some skins
0.0.4 version: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=437773
TouchLaunch is simple application launcher, which scans start menu shortcuts, and list them alphabetically. Kind of similar to scoll launcher
but this has new quick alphabetic scroll function. This is very early alpha and my first program release.
Features:
-finger scrolling
-quick alphabet shortcuts
-skinnable
-you can choose whether it closes after program launch or not

[0.0.1][10/06/2008]
[0.0.2][10/07/2008]
+Skin changer
+Better skinning support
+You can use bitmaps as list item highlight
+6 premade skins
+closeAfterLaunch feature
[0.0.3][10/10/2008]
+backgroundbitmaps
+you can use your today's screen background as this program's background
+ability to choose whether minimize or terminate on exit
+automatic closing ( either minimize or exit on closing )
+it's minimizes correctly, so you can leave it on running background
+should work on all different language roms!
Known "bugs":
-skin change takes about 5 sec... so don't panic
-if closeAfterLaunch feature is on and you switch to other application,
TouchLaunch will close in 2 seconds.
-if you try to launch phone ( or calendar ), it will launch softaware and after that it will crash...
-using bitmaps multiples memory usage, but you can avoid that using simpler skins
-menu is ugly
Requirements:
.NET CF 2.0
wm6 ( might work with wm5 ), i have only tested on emulator and on my elf
qvga or vga
Instructions:
Download and install the cab file
or download the zip file, extract it to any folder on your ppc and run the exe file.
Making new skins you can look example from premade skins in the skin folder at installation folder, two of them ( white.xml and original.xml ) are commented. Adding new just copy your skin xml file in the skins folder.
ToDo:
-better skin support
-adding some animations
-icons ( maybe someone could give me a hint )
-bug fixes
-landscape support
-performance tweaking
-optimizing memory usage
Feel free comment, and give me more ideas!
If like it, you can always donate to keep me motivated
Thanks to gingercat and dosfan for exellent work on KListControl!
Thanks to skinmakers!
Other's skins included in package:
Manila 2D Blue ( by shadowmike )
Diamond ( by Azimuth21 )

nice work can we change background skin
awh damn. just when i had made my mortbuttons program launcher skin.
thanks buddy.
i bet its MUCH easier than my way...
munnna73 said:

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Yes, you can change all the colors and also change placements of different elements by modifying skin.xml file. It doesn't support using background bitmaps, but i'm planning to make that for nex release.
Every object has these attributes, which you can modify:
Code:
<ELEMENT>
<NAME>mainList</NAME>
<BGCOLOR>105105105</BGCOLOR>
<FORECOLOR>245245245</FORECOLOR>
<X>12</X>
<Y>0</Y>
<WIDTH>228</WIDTH>
<HEIGHT>268</HEIGHT>
</ELEMENT>
the colors are 9 digit RGB values ( example. BGCOLOR is 105105105, so it has 105 red, 105 green, 105 blue ). Make sure you always use three numbers, even if value is under 100, for example 5 -> 005.
i cant wait till we can have background images. and select images like scroll launcher(by l5v3y)

Actually you can use select image, because it use the same KlistControl code base. Just copy png bitmap to execution folder and name it as select.png. The dimensions must match the dimensions configured in the skin.xml. So, by default it's 228x40.
Looks nice
Few pointers if I may it starts kind of slow it takes about 4 seconds to open it on my kaiser. And the search engine is kind of not finger friendly it,s hard to select a letter with your thumb. I think that bigger letters would do the trick for example you could place half of the alphabet on the left side of the screen and the rest on the right side or introduce the search engine similar to the one present in IContacts.
Great job

Thanks for responses and ideas!
The slow start time is mostly compact framework's fault, one idea is to let it run on background or switch to WIN32 api... but i did look up Icontact's source and felt it was not my kind of cookie But there's some tweaking that could be done. About the scroll touch, i find it quite good on my touch.
It helps to not really trying to hit right alphabet but instead follow what the on screen indexshower shows, and if it's wrong letter just slide your finger up or down. have to say that i'm not big fan of the idea dividing the alphabets but the Icontact alphabet's style could be an idea...
Btw. out of concept, but does anyone know any free coctail databases? Because i have done earlier a program that displays coctail recipes, but the database i use is something that i can't publish. firstly because i don't have authors permission and secondly because it's in Finnish It would perfect if database would be in XML format.
Just added a cab installer.
If the memory footprint is low and by saying low I mean less than 500kb then it's a good idea. WIN32 api??? Well that's double dutch to me
Well I think I've got too big thumbs While holding the phone in one hand I'm not able to access the alphabet with my thumb. I've tried pressing the alphabet area and then slide it up or down to choose a letter but I end up scrolling the list with applications up or down. So maybe widening the alphabet touch area would do the trick. Also I think that moving the indexshower to the upper or even upper right part of the screen would prevent it from being covered by a thumb while picking a letter.
I don't know any cocktail databases at least not free ones
Would it be possible to map it to the "all programs" soft key in TF3D?
Looks nice, thanks for the good work.
Installed and tried it. A pgm which works great. Very handy as I do not have every programs set for my iFonz icons. I couple of suggestions:
1) To group pgm names by alphabet, something like iContact. When the scroll reaches a particular alphabet, the alphabet will appear in the middle, more like you're selecting from the left alphabet option.
2) A handy A to Z table like iContact rather than the alphabets tiny-ly arranged on the left.
I can live with the color but if there's skin to select, it will be prefect.
Thank you for such brilliant pgm.
why netcf
New Version 0.0.2!
It's more skinnable, you can change also font. And I made 6 example skins. I would love see few good custom skins in this thread, which i could add to next release.

The new version has the old color scheme and new white one, i would like i have some darker on like on scroll launcher also.. maybe some talented skinning artist in this forum could provide me that I'm not so talented with skin creating.

CURRENT VERSION A4 (Updated 01/08/08)
Alright, so after some tweaking, I decided to release my Devonshire WAD2 QVGA theme
IMPORTANT: Make sure you have Calibri font installed on your Pocket PC! If you do not have it, follow the instructions found here: http://labnol.blogspot.com/2007/03/download-windows-vista-fonts-legally.html

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
The tabs are HOME, WEATHER, AGENDA, APPS & SETTINGS, and CONTACTS
History
A4: Fixed the change page gestures and refined the apps & settings page and the contacts page
A3: Home tab tweaked to add on the most used apps popup menu these items: bluetooth status, volume status & pending notifications. Apps & Settings tab completed: Now has 3 pages for apps, 2 pages for settings. Contacts tab completed: Now has 3 pages for contacts.
A2: Minor tweaks, plus better layout for weather
HOME
Pressing on the Home tab at the very bottom opens up WM5NewMenu, which is similar to the left softkey but customizable. I highly suggest you look for it and install it. Otherwise, just link it back to the left softkey.
The four main buttons above it are the Menu Button, Phone Button, AltTab Button, and S2U2 Button
If you need AltTab, it can be found in this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3137583&postcount=10
Pressing on the left button (Menu) opens up the menu with your most-used apps. In version A3, I also added notifications for bluetooth, sound, and pending notifications. In the zip file, I also left the graphics for wifi, if you decide to switch any of them.
Pressing the analog clock opens up the indicators strip:
I also added a popup calendar which comes up when you press on the date at the top.
WEATHER
This tab uses WAD2's internal weather program. You can always change it to Weatherpanel, of course.
I changed the layout and the arrow to make it look nicer and provide more information.
I use the Yahoo weather icons from PhatPhinger for my layout, since not all of the Weatherpanel Diamond icons work properly. I attached the zip of the two set of icons for it.
AGENDA
For the sake of compatibility, this also uses WAD2's internal agenda. The links for tasks and appointments go to Agenda One, however. You can change those easily.
APPS & SETTINGS
The apps & settings tab has 3 pages for apps and 2 pages for settings, with 11 slots in each page. The arrows changes the pages.
Pressing on "Apps" will change it to "Settings", and vice versa.
The "App" tab on the very bottom opens up Resco file explorer,
CONTACTS
The contacts tab has 3 pages for contacts similar to the apps and settings tab. The "missed calls" text will also open the missed calls screen.
The "Person" tab on the very botom opens up VITO FunContact, but you can change it to any contact apps that you use.
Any feedbacks?
Hi! great work!
In my opinion only the weathertab is not really fitting to your desing of the other pages... it's a little bit too Manila like...but well, it's only me!
Thx for sharing!

Looks great ! Good job !
A couple notes:
1. For some reason, the ditigal time on my Home Tab was messed up. It showed the time as 4:30 A and then underneath it AM. I fixed it, but don't know if it was a bug or just my phone.
2. In Calendar Tab, the lines 0 Tasks Due Today and 0 Tasks Overdue where spilling over on to the calendar.
3. For some reason, the controls are inverted (i.e. if I am at the Home Tab and press left, instead of going to Contacts Tab, it goes to Weather Tab. Any way to fix this?
4. The Contacts Tab only has one page currently. Update?
Other than that, I love the theme. Possibility of landscape being added?

Okay, cool. I will re-install that tomorrow.
I have a suggestion/request if possible:
Is there any way to change the 3rd (AltTab) and 4th (S2u2) pictures into BlueTooth and WiFi.
Those are a bit more practical, especially since I don't know what AltTab does and don't use s2u2.
Also, I know landscape might be hard/time consuming, so is there a way to get simple landscape (e.g. maybe just a Home Tab w/ texts, e-mails, calls and time listed or something?
I use landscape a lot w/ my Tilt since I use it for texting.

Well, it's actually pretty easy for you to customize it and change the function under Author Mode for those two buttons. AltTab is a great little software that allow you to change programs, just like hitting Alt+Tab on your computer keyboard.
S2U2 is one of the most popular screen lock around and it started here on Xda-Developer. Do a search on it =D
I uploaded the AltTab program. Just copy the folder into your Program Files folder in your phone.

1. Copy the folder "Devonshire" into "\Program Files\Lakeridge\WisBar Advance Desktop\Themes"
2. On your storage card's root folder, copy the folder "Wisbar Advance Desktop." This is where the graphics are and the link has to be the same, or else you'd have to manually redefine each gfx file.

I had a couple of ideas but my programming skills outside flash are poor at best.
I wanted to make a plugin packed much like AnalogClock that is a all-in-one plugin with severall features.
All these ideas can be done with a MORTSCRIPT file!
I tried to do a EXE file in flash that would update the registry much like a MSCR file, but it steals too much RAM and BATTERY when left ON after a few hours.
So I'll just leave the ideas here, in case anyone wants to pick them up.

ALREADY STARTED ON POST #2!
It reads the current time and updates the regkey on the fly, but with a small twist:
If the current minute is different from the last X saved on the registry...
...runs this animation:
Save image name Xa on the registry
Wait 1/10 of a second
Save image name Xb on the registry
Wait 1/10 of a second
Save image name Xc on the registry
Wait 1/10 of a second
etc...so that we could display the same animation as the Diamond M3D clock.
This would require images with numbers 0-9 and their subsequent animation frames (5 should be enough)
If the digits were semi-tranparent with a glass glow, it would be extra good.
NOTE: Wouldnt advice having a seconds tab, as it would be always changing.

Micro notifications:

Pretty much what I already did as a test here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3862296&postcount=475
...but with some extras:
The regkeys could change and make the numbers and icons disappear if they where equal to zero, by replacing the regkey filename with a blank png.
And the main button would change to the phone history or messages link when a call was missed or new unread sms existed.
So the icons would only pop-up when they were needed, and when they did, the main link would go to them.

Better than the one we have already...

DigiClock Quick test for QVGA
i'm trying the animation clock
attached is a quick test for qvga only
the animation not very smooth
Thats great!
I am currently trying to pull off a mortscript that does all this below:
So, the micro notifications I talked about above are suposedly working, it leeches of the titanium weather for the weather icon and temperature (no point on getting this onfo online, as that plugin is much complete), gets the system values like the system panel (but its based only on mortscript alone, no extra EXE's), and shows a clock based on pngs, much like analogclock's digital clock (not animated, hehehe).
I just need the date settings right and then learn how to do a titanium plugin, that I can change easily (I currently using the SYSTEM PANEL to test my mortscript file), but never did one myself.
I would like to see the SMS plugin in action. Looks promising to me.
However, what about a skype plugin for Titanium? There could be several options:
- Launch Skype (Right Softkey)
- Page1: Show amount of online contacts (ActionURL= Launch Skype)
- Page2: Show active chats (Username + Message/Topic)
- Page3: Show missed Skype calls/events
Or even a general "chat" plugin with Skype, WLM, FIM, ICQ, Fring etc. ?
I'd love to see a working notification panel myself. The stand alone one has overlapping txt in the notification areas on qvga and it doesn't look like its gonna get updated.
i'll have to try this one later on thanks.
Managed to make it work... and only with a MortScript that uses less than 150kb on the system.
When you receive a call or sms, the icon pops-up and the main button is used for accessing the call history or messages.
The icons arent showing in this screenshot because I didnt received any sms or call, lol.
The battery icon becomes on fire when its being charged.
The system bars show you your free mb and a visual percentage of how much that is (Mortscript only supports 2gb cards for now)
The clock can be easily skinned, as its simple png files.
To try (remenber its not finished) - QVGA ONLY!:
--------------------------------------------------
- Install System panel (I'm using it for tests until I learn how to create a plugin, shamefull... I know )
- Install Titanium weather (if for some strange reason you havent already, also configure your city on it).
- Install the Beyond Invisible Weather Icon pack, for some reason the CPR doesnt fix the icon sizes yet... :/
- Remove the shortcut to Memstatus.exe that the System Panel plugin installed on your Windows\Startup folder, because its not used by my plugin.
- Backup your \Windows\Titanium_240x320.cpr file.
- Install my files into your device (note that the CPR must be overwritten, if it gives you any trouble, use Resco Explorer)
- With Titanizer or Chome editor enable the System Panel plugin (if it isnt already) and move it to the bottom (so that its not on top on anything else).
- You can now remove the exe from the System Panel of Startup.
- You can customize some settings if you open the \My Documents\Themes\Titanium System Panel\TWolf.mscr file on notepad,
- Reset and enjoy the BETA!
---EDIT----
Small bugfixe, update my MSCR file into the \My documents\Themes\Titanium System Panel\TWolf folder.
There was a small bug when the plugin had a missed call or unread sms.
---EDIT 2----
Fixed the "on missed call" bug (it wouldnt jump to the call log).
Attached the latest MSCR.
---EDIT 3----
Did more changes on the MSCR file, separated the updates into 2:
- The clock, notifications and battery charge icon update every second.
- All the rest, every 10 seconds.
There are more customizable settings and are easier to change.
Also added the condensed view regkeys, but havent had time to change the CPR file yet.
Tryed a different version where the script would first check if the regkeys had changed and only then would change them, but that took more ram to run, so as it wasnt serving its purpose, I went back to the old way.
---Edit4---
Some extra notes:
At first I was thinking of a bigger size panel, true, but that forces ppl to change the design or layout of all their other plugins, thats why I was going for the default only.
So with that in mind, I was thinking (just thinking, for now) that my plugin could show:
- The clock, weather icon, date and notifications on a normal view (First page), that jumps to a pre-chosen app on clicked (Resco explorer, yey), if a notification existed it would jump to their app and on the right softkey link would make the weather update (its doing this already).
- The system settings + battery and network info on the second page that when clicked would go to memory settings, and the plugin settings could be the right softkey link.
- A image "slideshow" of a pre-chosen folder on the third page, that when clicked would change to the next picture (bottom link would go to album).
- On the fourth page a sms messages tab that would show the latest message and on clicked would show the next and so on... The right softkey would jump to all the messages.
- The clock, weather icon and notification icon (no text) on condensed view.
- The settings app (user customization) would be a flash EXE file that would save stuff in the settings (much easier for me to do )
Not sure yet how I'll do all this, but it all seems pretty duable on mortscript.
Would only do a QVGA version, since its all I could test.
This does not exclude my idea that the messages and album (explained on the first post) should have their own plugin.
But maybe after I do these, part of the code could be reused for someone else with better programming skills.
yea i def wanna change my clock
I followed your instructions on a fresh install with nothing added.
1) system panel
2) weather 4.2
3) copied files and below is what I get
Uh, your not the first to have that bug, for some reason the icons dont get resized on the cpr... :/
To fix you need to install and apply the excelent Beyond Invisible weather icon pack.

Just the shortcut on the startup to memstatus.exe, its from the system panel, but its not used on my plugin change.
Also, found a bug in my MSCR, ill update the post with the fixed file.
it had a int(x) code to make number into a full decimal number, but mortscript cant recognize it like that... :/
Still looks the same with installing those beyond icons..
I assume I'm using all the same mods as you since theres only one of them but could you post the cabs your using to get this going just in case?

Looks to me that CPR isnt mine.
Use Resco Explorer to really overwrite yours.
Updated post #5 with the latest mscr version, it fixed another bug.

No, nothing else has to be installed, only the mentioned 2 plugins and my files.
If you get that error its because you dont have the htc taskmanager app, but thats ok, its not important, you can change the main link to any other app you like in the SETTINGS area of my latest MSCR file.
I just used that one because it was already the default on the system planel.
am not going to the gym today to fix this hope it works
the new freaking rom i downloaded doesnt let me replace the Titanium_240x320
not even with resco because it says its a "rom " file
