best multipage/multitab today plugin?

Hi guys,
What's the best multi page today plugin with the ability to insert today plugins inside pages?
I'd like if i could have first top half of the screen with htc home plugin and second bottom half with more than one tab with inside different today plugins.
Sorry for my english, hope clear enough...
TY
Bye

there is wisbar advance desktop (WAD for short) which can do some wondrous things and it is completely customizable and skinable:
http://www.lakeridgesoftware.com/products.php?prod=WisBar+Advance+Desktop
takes a bit to get used to, but you basically lets you create today screens and add what you want to them, including other today plugins and counters, text , images etc...sorry, not the best description. Have a look at the forum on the site to see what people are using it for.
Hope it helps

I like the good ol' HTC Home. Nice and simple.

I'm really digging on the the tried and true cLaunch lately. As I'm limited to a 240x240 screen, there are only a few viable options for the limited real estate and cLaunch is working nicely as an app launcher. In conjunction with Quickmenu, I manage my device and access my apps with minimal keying.

X2 for cLaunch. Simple, clean, multiple pages, custom icons (.bmp, exe, or dll) you can even change the size of the icons you want to make it more finger friendly. I set mine to 32 pixels, and took off all the borders and tabs. You can use lnk shortcuts.

I think OP 's original request was for something that is tabbed AS WELL as be able to include other today plugins as tab.
can cLaunch or ultimate do that?
I know SPB Pocket Plus can but there are some plugins it can't incorporate which I wish it could like the WM6 calendar and task plugins.

is there an english version of ultimatelaunch

This is a best plugin so far and uses a minimal amonut of ram considering how much works it does.
Anybody know how to put meter in this plugin like battery, signal, memory etc. And show running programs in a tab.

You can create your own tabbed today plugin (for FREE) by using:
1. rlToday
2. MortScripts
Example: http://rotlaus-software.de/forum/viewtopic.php?id=1099

thanks its nice but is threre a plugin for unread msg and phone calls

That ULTIMATELAUNCHER thing seems quite nice - but I havent figured if it is possible to point it to a folder. It has super interface, but I find it a bit to difficult to configure...

Is that an exe for pc installation? If so, can you make a cab for ppc installation?
or is that suppose to replace an exe file somewhere? If so where?

Iphone-like taskbar

Hi folks,
Is there a way to have exactly this bar permanently on today screen? The pic was taken from an Ifonz screenshot.
I have a Gsmart VGA WM6.0 pro.
I tried Wisbar and other stuff but no way..too heavy and not user friendly at all. The best would be a kinda tsk file or whatever... any help?
Thanx for the great forum..Bye.

The only way to have it permanently there is to use PointUI which has the top bar. Its not quite like the iphone bar, but it has what you need and acts as a task switcher as well as a way to get back to the pointui home screen.
I have asked the developer of the today life program (xml config tool with themes) he is making if he was planning on making a permanent top bar. But he didn't seem to care... such a shame too since it is useful.

Wisbar is the easiest way.
You won't get that without additional software.

Are you sure that PointUi is VGA compatible? I tried it before but it didn't work.

Which version? I believe the latest one is (it may be a seperate cab).

Well, they did a test version in the old 1.02 version. I don't think they ever did anything for their new 1.5 version in vga.
http://forums.pointui.com/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=862&st=0&sk=t&sd=a
There are some other vga programs listed in that thread that may interest you.

- problem is that this tasbar is much smaler than the original wm6-one.
- also the icons, text, everything is completly different. windows can´t handle this.
- so the only way to get exactly this taskbar is a net application that runnes over windows mobile.
- why should the programmer of todaylife make a new taskbar when he created a complete Gui thats above windows mobile ? funny !
- if you look at my thread (bluephone) you find a todaylife skin with a original iphone taskbar.

I will try PointUi 1.02 alpha and post feedback.
Thanx guys.

Why? He created a complete gui thats above WM, great! But it loses its functionality the moment you open a program and it goes back to the WM interface, top taskbar. I thought it was supposed to be "above" WM? How do you get back to the today life screen?
You even created a skin for today life and I tried it. Sadly, it doesn't feel like a gui replacement for WM when the taskbar changes to the ugly, non functional WM bar.
I don't know anything about programming. But there must be a way to keep that bar at the top. *sigh*

all apps are programmed for the big wm taskbar, even if someone could manage to let a new small iphone tasbar stay on top and hide the original bar, you would have a ugly free space between taskbar and any application. So you want nothing more than programm every available software for windows mobile new
so i can tell you just this two words: Not possible ! believe it or not.

Wisbar. It's pretty easy to make a skin like that, and it's not as heavy as you mention. Give it a second try!

PointUi alpha 1.02:
seems quite fine and fluid on my Gsmart WM6. I only hope it will be developped for VGA devices.
Wisbar:
I'm still not satisfied with Wisbar 3. It eats my ram and freezes the ppc. Not worth keeping it installed.
I'll keep the original WM interface as it is. Only some spb plugins will be kept in wait of some new advice or suggestion from the forum.
Thanx guys for all the enriching posts.
Ciao ciao.

It 'eats' about 300K on my device. I don't find that very much. Many plugins are more hungry.

as Syd159 said. It does not eat too much and I never had freez caused by Wisbar. It is normal app in combination with Ultimate launch (or SBP Pocket plus) you got total "new phone"

yes wisbar do consume lot of RAM and slow down my phone so I did't use it anymore

Imho I think that a today plugin like Gsmart glass can be worth trying. I like the gui and it belongs to Gigabyte (like my device ).
Have you guys tried it? If so is it that good?

can someone please help me! im trying to find a tiny today plugin that shows u ur GSM carrier name/logo ...mine is ROGERS ...just so i know that i have my GSM activated on my today screen!
builtin 'wireless' today item takes up too much space ,plus it displays wifi and bluetooth icons which i don't have a need for
cheers
for example in this pic, where it says Phone Off, i wud b nice if had a rogers logo or some type of Green icon so i know my gsm carrier is ONLINE

I'd suggest something like BatteryStatus (although it has a new name which I have forgotten!) with a skin with just GSM Status.
Also, whilst it's good not having another thread, you're more likely to get an answer in the Questions and Answers sticky.

any developement in this taskbar?

"Today" Tab in TF3D

Hi there,
One of the things I really miss from my Kaiser is the ability to have today plugins. I use MSN a lot with my mobile, and having the MSN plugin right on today was nice. I used other plugins as well, but with TF3D it´s simply not possible.
What I really miss is a TF3D tab where you would put today plugins, like with SPB Pocket Plus...
Any way of doing this ?

Lol thats a good one, I've been using MTP_v0.3.6.2 for a few days and it works pretty well for an unfinished add-on...
Laters,

Awesome!! Guess you´re a Battlestar Galactica fan!!!! yay!!!!
But in fact, I was looking for something stable... I´ve found so many posts saying it wasn´t possible to have a new tab in TF3D that I kept from searching directly.
Anyway, a work to keep an eye on: will also keep looking for other options.

what use is google when there is nothing there to be found:
Options so forth:
-Manila Today Page: Unfinished, buggy (try to hit start from there...). Does not work under wm 6.5
-Second Today: does not cooperate with pocket breeze well, does not seem stable with most ROMs
-TF Detacher: to me useless, does not enable to use manila functions+today, works as if you turned tf3D off...
...difficult choice. I would have loved second today if it worked. But it does not, so I am on MTP hoping things will get better: FYI: none of these programs is developed.

I'm using secondtoday with pocketbreeze wtihout any problems at all. HOWEVER, what you have to make sure to do is uncheck the option to auto-resize the height of pocketbreeze. Once I did this, secondToday has been ROCK SOLID. Absolute must have app IMO.

Which UI do you prefer?

Just wanted to gauge what everyone's thoughts were about which UI they prefer the most now that there are so many options.
Which do you prefer using out of the below:
TF3D
TF3D2
Titanium
Point UI
SPB Mobile Shell

Voted for TF3D even tho I haven't tested any of the other, but I've seen youtube videos.

Neither of them..Sense UI all the way.

It hasn't been ported to the diamond properly yet hence i left that one out.

tf3d2, love new calendar, and dipper manila

It doesn't matter if it hasn't been ported to the diamond..All I know is that Sense UI is the best UI out there. Just my two cents.

Wich UI do you prefer?
I would say PointUI Pro with the Sense UI themes and applets, works like a charm, feels smooth and lag free.

SPB Mobile Shell 3

SPB shell is the best for me, better than manilla, it can be configured like you want and everything it is very accesible and finger friendly.

Using titanium right now. But can't wait when HTC releases sense ui for winmo.
Also looking for good port of sense ui for now, which one you using CraZyLiLbOy ?

voted TF3D2 now it's very usable also with the "old" diamond
PointUI is really nice but wastes too much memory
SPB Shell isn't free

I really like SPB shell is the best.
Its finger friendly, customisable and easy to use.

I'm a Titanium user for now. But when Manila 2.6 shows up... I'll be switching to that!

Im with you on that one Trident. Can't wait for the Diamond Dev's to port it over

I feel all the new UIs are memory hungry, so use the old school Touch Home screen, got everything you need, and still room to fit a couple of home plugin's on the today screen, and it runs so much quicker than anything else I've tried (and I've tried them all)

does anyone knows where to find old school htc today for vga screen?
found couple htc today, but icons are too smal at vga screen.

This is the one I use, works fine both portrait and landscape.
Upload didn't work, here you :

I am useing SPB and I like all programs to be finger friendly:

Agreed. Everything is so much easier with it. You dont even have to use the start menu if you configure it properly.

SPB mobile shell is well worth the $30

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!
