This is a cool way to rotate your screen

it has been discussed on the forum before, but no one actually ported it or even posted a cab.....
Any idea how to get this on our TP2..... this would be really great...
*BUMP*....
that looks pretty cool I'd also like to see soething like this for our Rhodium if possible?
Cool! I want to see that also!
Pretty Cool. I was worried because the first two animation were very slow. The following ones looked good.
Anyone know of a .cab for this?
This is a cool effect wouldn't mind getting that for my TP2.
can anyone provide the .cab?
nice
that's pretty cool i would like to have it on my tp2 as well.
Same here. Same here.
Would love to try that out on my TP2.
I definitely would like something like that on my Tilt 2!
i need this like a junky needs a fixs
Know this is purly a cosmetic thing, but I would like this too. a lot better than the boring plain switch. Would love it on my TP2, as well.
Yea I'd have to agree 1000% that this is definitely bad ass!! It makes for real nice eye candy and cool transitions to say the least!! I wonder if this is actually something that can be ported over or made into a cab to be installed to our touch pro 2's?? It's funny to see this thread b/c I've always wondered about this since seeing it on the Omnia way back when it was released so im really surprised the port of that software hasn't made it over to XDA!!?!?! Perhaps it can't??? Let's hope I'm wrong and this comes to fruition
bump bump bump it up!
Bump Bump.......
yeaaaaaaaaaa lol lets get this ported baby, I wish I knew how or even had the phone to lend a hand with this!! I mean ive seen more complicated things ported to our phones like manila aka tf3d which had to be one of the hardest things and also the xperia panels to name a few!

WARNING IPHONE HATERS... (semi-clone on board)
Details here.. http://iwindowsmobile.com/vito-mobile-shell.html
Looks like its open season on hacking this now.
If I can only get it to somehow show calendar events on a page, its a hit.
Interesting. The only thing that stil pulls the I-phone ahead in this race is the speed at which it can use thier shell. I still love my PDA more though. Thanks for the link.
Hmmm...can't wait to see some skinning for this.
*update*
DL'd the cab from the website listed. It hasn't asked for an activation code yet...found activation screen, 14-day trial.
It is fairly easy to run, doesn't seem to take a lot of memory. Very similar to iPhone icon UI, not as 'fancy' looking.
looks boring
There is definite room for improvement...not too bad for a 1st version but it's typical of Vito software.
Contacts can be set up with their own icon and can be mixed in with application icons.
I would like to see something along the lines of SPB Mobile Shell though...i.e. Clock page, calendar. Then again, I suppose that will just fatten it up and cause some memory drain like SPB already does.
I'll try it...
I'll try it for a few days.Thanks.
Looks good but why always duplicate the iPhone interface, come up with something better. The new Diamond interface is like a breath of fresh air. It lets us know there are other options out there that is also good.
the most boring thing about vito apps is how cheap they all look. ugly, ugly, ugly.
looks too generic reminds me of samsung gui
something unique would have been more eye catching!
Nice one
Cool feature, but why use it when I have this baby..
On the HTCTOUCH

**Update**
NM, I found this thread you were in...Is it WAD or WAD2 you're mostly using?

What was the warning for? Another dumb iPhone wan-a-be.
it's actually pretty nice... it just needs some graphical tweaks in my opinion...
Seems ok to me. Granted its similar to the iphone layout; however seems fairly simple and straightforward.
I like the semi black background without it being too black.
Everyone will have a view on this latest interface/gui. What we should remember is that there are people out ther doing an awful lot of development work to give us a better interface/more choice on the WM platform.
Constructive criticism and good points, e.g the request for skinning, is one thing. Simply lambasting the tool is not good enough.
Someone on here the other day was asking for ideas for a new UI for WM. Should we not seize on opportunities like this one presented to us?
Just my dollars worth.

Winterface
I like the iPhone-like interface, and the customizeability. Aside from that, I agree that the overall apearance of SBP Mobile Shell is better.
amen! If I wanted an iPhone, I'd get a damned iPhone!!

is fine.... can you post?
I second WackyBanana.
It'd be great to have skinning sometime soon.
just my 2 cents worth, but iphone bashing is getting a bit droll, since we're all here on WM platforms anyways. You have to admit, Apple's UI's are pretty good, just really short on apps and customization.
So lets congratulate Vito and see if we can get some more customization options.
I would LOVE an option to turn off the Vito 'slide to unlock' option since I'm already using Slide2Unlock Pro 1.05...
like another person stated it looks boring! i wonder how well it will work? will it be speedy or sluggish?
Anyone got the know-how to try this? It would open up some new looks on our devices. Its arguably one of the better things in the 6.1 update.

don't think i got your point
like in ultimate launcher?
no i think he means the today screen from wm6.1 smartphones. (which is very nice)
I havent seen it on wm pro
Yes, separate it out and make it an installable cab as a today screen replacement or addition. It looks really nice, and usability is better than the original.
This should be possible since they both are based on the same OS. Just a matter of finding and extracting.. I dont have the know-how, but would love this.
I also have not seen anyone else mention this. That is why I started this thread.
I believe it has been brought up in reference to the T-Mobile Shadow today screen that can usually be found under the keyword "neo theme". I haven't seen any ports myself either and I know I would definitely use it especially if it was the neo theme from the shadow. I would love to install the "Freddy Shadow Neo Black Theme". My daughter had a shadow and damn that theme was nice.
Omg. Yes. I've been looking for a port of it too. I'm so jealous. It looks really nice. But then again, it might look weird since smartphone screens are much smaller.
well it'd be really neat, but since we have rectangle screens it'd be very different for us to have something like that
If anyone is wondering about what this is, or more, here is a blog from one of the WM developers who had a hand in creating this:
http://blogs.msdn.com/windowsmobile/archive/2008/06/03/customizing-the-sliding-panel-homescreen.aspx
Maybe something like this could be created using TodayLife, I think that's the one I'm thinking of.

Actually, neo is different , thats what shadows used before 6.1. The sliding panels are great to use, but they have lots of limits too. If you duplicate them with another program like TodayLife, then you would have much more room to configure. And you can't add plugins into sliding panels, you can only manipulate the ones included.
Just saw this amazing app/game for yes again the fruitphone.
http://www.iphoneappreviews.net/2008/09/22/ichalky/
This is a must have for the diamond if someone could make something like this
There are so many things coming out for the fruitphone, i hope the same will happen for the diamond. And this little gadget is really cool.
Lol! Funny little guy...Want one!
no useful ... BUT FUN!
i donno if this can be done to the diamond .. but who knows .. its DIAMOND

Why does everything have to be useful?
i want that stick man DEAD!
Funny, that would be cool on the diamond
2D physics simulation, spring physics, probably OpenGL rendering for the sake of speed, Fast Fourier Analysis for the dancing part... Very much possible on the diamond - but none of these things I've done before But I don't see how this would not be very much possible on the diamond...
The only thing definitely NOT possible is the stretching-part with two fingers - since the diamond's screen is not multitouch capable.
Just my two cents ;-)
Alex
This is usefull... if you have no real friends you can use this one Real cool funny app want it on my diamond
So u mean dChalky (for diamondChalky)??

Yeah but a REAL one rather than a Photoshop version
i know... maybe we can ask someone over here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=426244
Having their source code would be a HUGE kickstart for someone taking on the dChalky project - they already do have physics - although it seems like they don't have spring dynamics in, yet...
On Modaco there is a new interface for the Omnia:
http://www.modaco.com/content/i9x0-...ated-9-12-08-new-graphic-interface-for-omnia/
Anyone seen this?
Would be nice to have on the Touch HD.....
looks ugly!!!
Interface looks like from some sci-fi movie, which means it's hard to use and useless.
the project its also on xda.. they released some flash demos and this from my point of view looks really promising.. fast animations and very finger friendly.. hope it turns out as good as they want it to be because this really deserves the hard work..
its a step forward like pointui
A lot of negative comments here guys. Personally, I think it looks ok great, and just 'cos it looks different to manila does not mean it wont work easily.
Let's give it a chance - then judge

I totally agree. Futhermore, I think it looks like a fantastic improvement on TouchFlo, which really is not a user-friendly interface.
I would agree, I think it looks fantastic. I'm not sure it's totally practical, but looks very impressive. Show that to your iPhone owning friends to make them jealous...
So who's tried or is using the new XDA forum theme?
You can view it from: User CP>Edit Options>Scroll down to the bottom>Forum Skin>XDA 2010 - BETA
It's pretty nice. Nice update to the look.
whoa. just changed it to check it out. diffinetly a big change. the font looks really light so its a bit harder for me to read it.
oooo I really like this. Definitely looks a LOT more modern than the old theme.
I like it!
I think aN XDA 2010 BETA theme for our phones would be cool

Lol, i had it for like ten minutes and had to go back to the old theme. Idk, I guess i'm just too used to the old layout
loving this, thanks
dude not hating on the old theme cause it got the job done even with its weird colors, but this new theme is sick fools
EDIT: ok i lied, im with darch, i just switched backed, thats sad it only had a life of 5 mins on my comp

Its still hard to read.. I highlighted it. lol
And i love this new look.. i just have to get used to it.
Im willing to give it a full few days.
Haha my eyes had a seizure when the page first loaded. I like how modern it looks though, and I'll stick with it for a while
takes a bit to get used to but im liking it
I haven't used it yet, but I REALLY like the "multi-quote" button on this new theme.
It's a major change from the old theme, but it is a beta, so I'm sure anything majorly weird about it will be cleaned up later. I actually really like it. It's super clean and tidy
So much better than the pre-1997 theme we had before! Thanks for catching up to 2010 xda!
I used it for a day...
I REALLY like the way it looks but for some reason, on my phone, the sub-forum lists of threads scroll VERY SLOOOWWWWW.
Switched back
I like the new look as well. Love the XDAdevelopers font -- anyone know where I can get it?
I'll definitely give it some time. I've always thought the old theme needed a bit of face lift, so far this does justice.
Thanks for pointing this out gu1dry!

I just can't get into the app.. I prefer the fully functional version of the forum you get using the browser.
Lasted for about 15 minutes for me as well. Looks really nice, but I found it hard to read / find things. Probably just the "pain of change". I've grown too accustomed to the old layout...

Biggest thing for me is how little differentiation there is between quoted text and the new message. There was huge contrast in the old theme, and w/o it, it just makes it a little harder to read. Also, I noticed that, using the stock browser on the phone (i also don't like the app), when it resizes the text, you can't see who posted w/o scrolling. I find that annoying. Considering that 95% of my time on xda is spent on my phone, I almost have to go back.
I like it. I switched and will keep it permenant. It's quite nice. I wish they had a dark theme though where it was a white text on black background thing. That's how I have Visual Studio set up and I can last all day coding in it that way. With the default white background I only last about 4 hours before I have a huge headache....
