Hi all,
I've using the tp2 from few days and seriously love it. I've never been a fan of Touch Flo so, I prefer no to use it.
There is something I don't understand.
When touch flo is activated, i have the new marvelous one finger contact manager, contact editor and other stuffs like call history. When I disable TF, I just get the old winmo contact manager, what a pity !!
Does anyone knows how to not use Touch Flo but all the others facilities ?
Many thanks.
Seb
You can't use TP2 apps, if TF3D is disabled.
I think you need 3rd party software...
What a shame !
What could you advise as third party app ?
Thanks for yout previous answer.
Google iContact.. there are few variations of it.. they are better with finger support.
Thank you for your anwser.
But as spb ms3 I don't like apps with low res icons.
No matter, the old outlook would be fine... Snif...

The U.I looks really cool and was wondering if there was a way to get it for the Touch Dual? Cheers!
I believe that's a question for the Development board, not this one. I think I've seen something about that there ..
looks nice, shame it still links to the CRAPPY looking windows mobile apps, i wish someone would completely revamp the entire shell of windows mobile

Yeah! I also really long for something that would replace the ugly-ass WM apps, such as SMS/Email, Calendar, etc.. So if anyone find anything, please let me know
I had this working on my mine, but shifted to UL which is pretty awesome
same here ultimate launcher is brilliant. ive installed vito sms-chat and vito fun contacts too so its rare i see the hideous wm shell now

vito sms chat, how is it for you? I liked it but it created a new SMSfolder which I didnt like and SMS notifications wouldnt work anymore. On vito Quick contact, can you still pop out the software touch keypad? I mean I know we have the hardware slide out keypad but sometimes I like just using the touch screen.
sms-chat is fantastic. although you dont recieve the normal text alerts you should still hear your sms tone and a little semi-transparent window pops up in the centre of the screen with the sms info. In my opinion it is a lot better than the normal wm sms and even better still than the threaded sms in wm6.1.
Fun contacts works in such a way that you dont need to use the keyboard unless you are editing contact info and ive just confirmed for you that you can use the software keyboard as well as the hardware keyboard for this.
hope this clears things up for you
Will try to give vito SMS chat another trial. Thanks!
Try lord smiff threaded sms. I love it.
Hi,
I am still a bit confused about whether to get the Xperia X1 or the Touch HD. One concern is the possibility to show appointments on a today screen without getting rid of the user interface (i.e., I do not want to shut down or remove TouchFLO3D).
What I need is a possibility to show appointments not only for today, but for a user defined timeframe - like 1 week or a couple of days - in advance. In fact, right now I use a combination of the HTC homescreen with TodayAgenda 1.5 on my WM6 device. I like to switch on the device and see the actual time/date and all upcoming appointments without having to switch to a today screen, i.e. immediately. However, I am looking for a solution to integrate this into TouchFLO. I know that it is possible to have the "normal" today screen on HTC TouchFLO3D devices and use TodayAgenda.
Is this possible with TouchFLO3D on the Touch HD? (I expect that with such a screen size it should be possible to show many appointments without scrolling ...)
Eriol
Yeah man.. I would like to know if that is possible as wel.. on my diamond with SkippyCentraal ROM(NLD)
I did some tweaking with the software from here, but did not find a sollution yet on how to get more than 1 appointment showing on the today screen with Touchflow on..
Wow, thats sad ... if we cannot show appointments in TouchFlo3D
I just cannot believe this kind of limitation ...
I own Kaiser and I have never use TouchFlo ...
I also used TodayAgenda 1.5 and loved it on my previous phone. It was the bast app ever (for me) to be able to see all my appointments for next 30 days as soon as I switch the phone on. Shame we can't combine this on touchflo 3d as I dont want to disable it as it is what makes it different to other win mo devices.
Come on community. Let's crack it!
personally i dont like touch3d at all, it's slow, i prefer to use ultimate launch to have 2 or 3 today screen, and u can scroll each one using ur finger for example: i have 3 screens, one for today, with time and day, one for appointment(using agenda) , with any number of appointments u want to display in the screen!!!, one for applications icons( iphone style arrangement).
hope this may help!

If you tweak it (and maybe change to another ROM), it will work perfect for 95% (speed is good)
But the not showing of appointments (only 1) is sad... and there has to be some of u super tweaking guys who can fix this
X1 Panel allow u to customize the # of appointment showing on the panel
not sure if Touch 3D on HD is able to do so.
Well, maybe someone who has already got the HD can tell us ... this is really crucial to me. In the Raphael forum someone suggested to de-install TouchFlo3D ... that is exactly what I do NOT want to do, because I like TouchFlo3D otherwise.
In fact, HD screen should be big enough to show everything AND the upcoming appointments for the next 9 days or so ... Isn't there someone to figure out?
With Xperia X1 you can easily switch to a today screen that shows these appointments, you can even install TodayAgenda on the original today screen, without the need of removing the panel functionality.
There is an application called SecondToday that adds a 2nd today screen and is reported to work well with Touch Diamond. I wonder if this would be a suitable solution for Touch HD as well ...???
Eriol
I think this has been requested from the beginning of touchflo3d. I cant belive that HTC can fix this. I use the calendar every day and think its one of the major apps in WM. But HTC keep ignoring the calendar, there isnt even a tab for the calendar in touchflo3d.
If anyone know a nice integrated calendarsolution in tochflo3d I am very intrested.
Is this TouchFlo 3D cannot be disabled? Or replaced?
Hi folks
I think its about time for my first post in this forum.
Since HTC catched my attention with the HTC Touch Diamond I often visited this forum. Now I finally decided to purchase a HTC device too. I will go, like many of you, for the HTC Touch HD.
But enough of OT chat...!
As MEE I am also looking for a solution to display more appointments on the homesreen or in a new TouchFlow tab (if passoble).

No, unfortunately not. The Touch HD manual sais (on p. 67): One all-day appointment and up to two timed
appointments can be displayed. Touch this area to create, edit or view an
appointment. (See “Calendar” in Chapter 12 for details.)
This is not at all sufficient!
Anyway, this might be of interest for us (in German, though): Howto: Add a normal Today screen on TouchFlo3D
Someone here to try this on Touch HD?

This is interesting ! Please if anyone can test this and probably creates an english how to

A Today Screen clone would be one option to gain access to today info, see here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=401907
But with our large HD screen space more flexible plugin spaces, for example x number of appointments, would be prefered.

Definitely - I agree. But is it possible to add plugins into TouchFlo3D? X1's panels are rather independent, so you can add or delete them like you want to. In TouchFlo3D, the question is whether you are bound to what you have - or whether you are flexible as with the X1. I read in a X1 thread that they even think to add TouchFlo3d as a panel!
I hope we (or HTC: do you hear us???) finds a solution without the need of porting X1's OS to the Touch HD.

I would prefer a solution without the panels. The issue (showing appointments) is rather simple compared to installing the whole panel app to Touch HD. The latter might be a good project, but generally I hope we find a solution with less impact on the phone (I will use a company device, and I know that our IT guys will attack me if I start installing different ROM's or lots of programs that are not supported).
Eriol
As a suggestion, is there any way to interface Spb into TF3D? Spb shows LOTS of forthcoming appointments, and its Today screen is so programmable to user requirements.
Would there be any practical way to use this on the Touch HD? (Even Xperia has this now!!!)
I plan to turn off TF3D (is it possible with Touch HD???)
And use something else, probably SpB Mobile Shell .... ???
Unless, yes, if we can enable "Today" application in TF3D !
I have a touch hd, you can disable the TF3D under the "today" preferences.
Hi guys, has anybody idea, how to show today tasks on main Home in TF3D.
It's the last thing, what I need to be a happy user
Thats not possible ...

I know, that it's not possible "normal" way, but when I see, what all of you can do, so it's piece of cake for you
I think that this problem has many users.
For some stupid reason that nobody understands, HTC has disabled anything from displaying on the Today screen if TouchFlo 3D is running. You can however go to Settings>All Settings>Personal tab>Today and deselect TouchFlo 3D, and then you can add Tasks or any other item that you like. But you'll have to scarify TouchFlo 3D for that, and use regular Windows Mobile. If anyone has a hack or registry fix, please advise. Thanks!
Work better then yota or phonex
Contact Manager | February 4, 2009 Pocket PC
Beta Released
Built on the experience and success of Resco File Explorer, developers at Resco decided to create an application which makes managing contacts a quick, efficient and pleasant experience.
Resco would like to announce that the new application will contain the following features:
Touch-optimized interface
Easy navigation
Chat-like ordering of text messages
Letter navigation
Favorites
Quick search using keypad
Direct calls
History of calls
Easy assigning of pictures to contacts
Managing contacts in groups
Today plugin – quick access to all your commonly used phone functions
..and many more
http://resco.net/downloads/pocketpc/contactmanager/en/RContactMan_beta.exe
This looks very nice.
The only problem i see and for me it's the overruling off the keypad.
Thanx.
Looks Good and works fine... But there is just English Letters to search Contacts...
it's the first beta release guys ...upgrades will come soon, and specially also because it is nearly the Mobile World Congress
For a first release I am very impressed.
It definitely outdoes Yota contacts and any other contact program.
Not to mention it actually includes it's own shortcuts to the various tabs!!! Definitely a HUGE plus for me!
Maybe works betters, but is awesome ugly xD
Yota looks better

Not yet possible, but I posted a request on their forum for this, and other features. They say they will work on it.
Anyone interested should go to their forum and voice your support for adding these features. Resco seems to be listening.
Looks veeeery equal to PocketCM, which is my favorite app for more than a year.
Better donate therefore, as to buy such an obvious clone......
Just my 2cents

thanks! you saved me from deinstalling! the phone-app is now back to the htc-standard but thats not a real problem...
really nice contact manager and much faster as all other alternatives.
this is a good one!
Anyone know if the Touch HD or Windows Mobile 6.1 have ability to block calls from certain callers/numbers?
I need some sort of call blocking/filtering software that works well with the TouchHD. Something stable, that you know works well wth TouchHD. Paid or Freeware. Thank you!
Try with Photo Contacts PRO (v. 5.10). It works great for me!
http://www.pocketx.net/
spb phonesuite gets my vote (paid for)
My solution is to set a silent ringtone for the contacts number that needs to be ignored.
Does Spb or photo contacts interfere with touchflo in anyway? I like the TouchFlo call setup I just want to block calls. If it interferes/changes the answer screen, causes delays, etc then I might stick to the silent ringer instead. Please advise.
i dont use touchflo so cant comment, however you dont need to use the today plugin with spb phonesuite to make use of the functions
it offers a 15 day trial so check it out
jonajuna, thanks...will check it out.
try MagiCall I guess that's you are looking for.
mcano, that looks perfect, but does it play nice with Touch HD and TouchFLO?
MagiCall rulez!!!! i use it and im very happy
MagiCall all the way =D this program rules!
