Default Todayscreen as a tab - Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps

Hey there,
Last time (before my computer freezed) i saw a glimp of a hack/plugin for HTC TF3D(2 not sure) that could let you show the normal Windows Mobile Todayscreen in a tab.
Also i'm still searching for the X1 Panel-software. but can't find a concrete answer if it actually works with my rhodium.
Does anyone have some more information about this, or just an url that could push me in the right direction. It would help me alot!
Thanks so far.

Manila Today Page
Check out Manila Today Page in
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=508102
I'm interested on this as well, but I haven't got the courage to actually try it out myself yet. Took me quite some time to get all the apps transfered from the old TyTnII, I just don't want to risk it before hearing someone else having no problem with it.

I tried both Manila Today Page and Detacther... on my TP2, end up i have to restore it from my backup. (Glad I have full backup) I guess it is not ready for TP2 yet. I am really looking for a good one ... hopefully someone will create one in the future. Really missed out lot of WM today plugin.

MTP
Hi all
I tried MTP and it worked with two limitations:
1) No full WVGA support, VGA only
2) No landscape support
If you can live with that it works.

Newsland

I always used AvantGo on my old PPC, so wanted something similar for my Exec. I found Newsland on MS's website (yeah, I know, I deserve everything I get) and it had some good reviews.
Unfortunately, it doesn't work, and the website I'm supposed to register with is no longer in existance. The only site I can find is in Russian.
I thought "Stuff it" and tried to remove the software. I used settings>remove on the Exec. It has gone from the program list, but the software is still there. I tried removing it through Activesync, same result; gone from the program list, still on the Exec. I've tried a soft reset, it's still there, taking up room. Any ideas?
Newsland Remove
Hi,
I think the following is happened:
The Today screen plugin of Newsland was still active wen you tryed to remove Newsland. What you need to do is, try to install the software again, and when this is done deactivate the today plugin. Than remove the program again. After that you can look with the File Explorer and look at Program Files if the map Newsland still excist's. If so, you can delete it!
Hope this helps,
Cheers Leo
Does this mean AVantGO does not work in our Universal? Any other alternative to get NEWS REPORT on our Universal?
@cktlcmd
Hi,
If you want to use a good newsreader!

For me this is the best, tried Newsbreak and SPB Insight but this one is much faster and better designed.

Thanks. I checked the site. I do have a question. Does it support landscape view on our Universal? All the screen shots I saw were portrait view.
Landscape view
Hi,
Yes it does, I love this app, works smoothly!

Thanks very much.
Thanks Laurentius26, I'll try it now.
To the person asking if AvantGo works - it does work, just fine, in landscape or portrait. Just go to the AvantGo website and download the latest version. Annoyingly, it insists on syncing through it's own software rather than going through Activesync, and it seems slower to upload than it was on my 3 year old RX3715.
Still, it does the job just fine. I wanted to try something a bit different, so I may have a look at the other suggestions.
Edit - worked like a charm. Thanks again.

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.

Herald Today Screen Modification

Hello all,
i m new here but i am watching all p0sts about herald for a long time because i have one also...
Here's my question...is there any program like SPB MOBILE SHELL that can customize your today screen with out pay?? SPB shell is really helpfull but i cant find anywhere a non trial version with out pay:/
my sec0nd question..is there any other program to describe your tasks in your today screen ?? i ve tryed couple of programs but nothing..:/still saying 1 2 3 active tasks..:/
my last question is about loading cyrcle in ppc is there any way to change that???
Thx For your Help :>
Spb Diary come in my mind for your second question, it's not free but in my opinion its worth the money. Another program is called Today Agenda, haven't had my hand on it but I guess others here did.
The HTC Touch Today Screen can be an alternative to Spb Mobile Shell. It can be found either here or in the Wizard subforum. It's somewaht free, but it really slows down you PPC alot and takes away at least half of your screen.
yes but htc touch is for wm6..:/ any 0ther program??
I tried installing the HTC Touch Today screen from the wizard forums but didn't seem to work
I think I saw some registry settings on the same thread but didn't have regedit thingie installed so I'll give it a shot later

What language does your OS have.
I had to change the .mui files into 0407 for my german Terra.
And for registrysettings - use totalcommander. The best filemanager and FREE - and it has regedit, ftp, and lan service.
Good luck
As papamopps said, you just have to "localize" the plugin. It is only one .mui.0409 file you need to rename. If you use a good file explorer like TotalCommander you will be able to find and rename the file. I guess you are not using an English device so you should find that particular file easily in the Windows folder. After that uncheck and check the plug in from the settings menu.

Wisbar Diamond Theme WAD2 by JDUME

Hi guys i found this on ppcgeeks.com
http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=28385
Can anyone rewrite the cab - I mean i´m german and i´m useing a german rom and the the cab install will install everything on storage card - but in german system its called Speicherkarte.. Can anyone help
I tried this last night, and had nothing but problems, had no responce from the screen, it worked once, and i will admit that it looked very nice.
it just stopped responding, i couldnt even get into the settings or file explorer to remove the WAD or WA from startup folder.
in the end i had to hold the windows and ok hard keys on my touch cruise to reset the damn thing.
I would suggest you back everything up if you try these cab's.
good luck, i hope you all have more luck than me.
WAD2 is still in RC form...there are still bugs that are being worked out till a final release.

That sounds bad...
I hope someone makes it multilangual....
I tried it on my Orbit 2 ..Works really well and responsive...like the animated gesture transitions...(imho its the fastest diamond theme available)
I just installed the deskop not the taskbar thing(don't like it)
Very configurable....still playing with it...
This is a good UI, and very good theme. I have very much enjoyed converting this them to work on the 320x 320 platform. I think you will see many more using the WAD2 in the near future as it is very flexible and quite responsive and not a memory hog.
Jdume I posted a message on the WAD forum you can respond there or here whichever is more convenient.
i used to use WAD for getting the vista theme on my device, really need to get into it again, cos i think probably did something wrong.
i might try again in a few weeks when i have some more spare time, does the diamond theme have any cool transitions? i mean close to the original thing, i heard months ago that WAD2 was next gen. and that would support such transitions.

HTC Sense and WM Today

Can both HTC Sense and WM Today pages coexist similar to the way SPB Shell works by have the Today page in the background?
There was a program called "TouchFlo Detacher" that I used on my Touch HD. Now I know this won't work with Sense, as it's designed to work with TouchFlo, but I'd imagine that it would be a simple change to put in the relevant class names for the Sense UI.
It replaced one of your softkeys with a toggle button so you could flip between TouchFlo and Today, and it was VERY fast! (It didn't close and later re-open TouchFlo - it simply hides it as Today is always in the background.)
Have a search for TouchFlo Detacher and ask the author if he'd be interested. He may ask you to beta test it for him
Edit:
Here you go - I found it for you...

Looks good, but I personally don't like MortScript, so would rather a windows app, like the above-mentioned one.
I just recently installed M2D on my LG Incite and installed the communcations cab thing and got it to work but, after I had to hard reset and now I cannot figure out how to get the communcations tab to start working again. I dowloaded it onto my phone and just can find the icon under programs where it was before. Any help? Thanks!
*aww my first post! Look at how ignorent I was back then lol.
