I´ve been following with interest the porting of touchflo interface to non-Elf (Touch) devices.
There have been lots of requests for developing a cab with files n settings for such an interface. It has been suceesfully ported to custom ROMs for Artemis, wizard...., but developers say that there is no way to build just a cab.
not being a developer, i would like to know the rationale behind "cab is no possible", as i can not undestand why, if touch flow can be ccoked to a ROM, it can not be made into a cab. Surely there is an explanation.
(i ask this question because i´d rather keep the stock ROM until warranty period is over, but i want to use my device (Artemis) as much as possible without reverting to stylus)
The Problem is that the Touch.dll must be replaced with the one from HTC Touch... this is not possible.
Only before cooking the Rom you are able to replace System DLLs
..
hope this helps
So the solution would be to make an installation rotine that unloads touch dll from memory, ,overwrites it with the replacement "flo" one, and then reload touch dll.
is that a workable solution under MsMobile platform?
Sorry if i´m proposing a nonsense, as i´m no programmer at all (just "hello world" stuff)
I'm not one of the ROM cookers here but I think the system dlls that need replacing cannot be deleted because they are in ROM and therefore, the device needs to be flashed to change behaviour.

or just the cab being reinstalled after every hard reset?
The touch.dll is different from device to device... so u'll have to have a "touch" dll that fits your device. Another reason is that the dll can not be changed after flashing the rom, has it is protected by the OS (not even using Total Commander...).
I try to overwrite Touch.dll via some program to replace the original Touch.dll.
After replace it, Touch-screen is no respond to any touch on the screen but Hardware button still working ,then I restore my device.
In my idea, I think Touch.dll is device specific and this file take control all of touch-screen. So Touch.dll cannot be replace by conventional method.
We have to rewrite Touch-Flo program to hook on another dll, e.g. Touch-Flo.dll. (This is just my theory) But I don't know "How to do it ?".
Does anyone have idea about it ?

Well, until Tytn II(Kaiser) is released, the only touch-flo enabled phone that can be bought off the shelf is HTC Touch.
So all cooked ROMs for Artemis, Wizard.....that include touchflo, must include touchflo dlls extracted from HTC Touch ROM.
Then, my understanding is that, as these touch-flo ROM do actually run on devices other than HTC Touch, the dll´s needed must be not so "device specific" but (more or less) generic for QVGA devices without graphics processor (or at least for OMAP 200 devices).
maybe its not only touch dll, but also other files which have to be replaced by files from HTC Touch.
Has any body managed to extract the touchflo files from HTC touch or TytnII??? If yes then kindly post them here. Maybe we can try to put it in other models like Hima..

There a number of ROMs that include TouchFlo in Prophet, Artemis n Wizard xda-dev forums.
i dont know how to extract specific files from a ROM file, nor which files are flo-related files, and have to be extracted.
Surely the cookers of those ROMs can advise and even provide the Flo files.

look in the wizard WM6 forum, there are several kitchen roms and links to OEM packs with all the touch stuf thats needed.
I agree ,
i dont understand why is not possible to make one application just to touchflo,
let´s take some examples:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=321242
this stops, but i test and works, only whid some bugs, and is not reali a touchflo
http://www.pocketcm.com/index.php
this one makes touchflo
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=325223&highlight=iphone+media+player
this one is touchflo application
icontacts is a touchflo application
so...i dont understand why is not possible to make a touchflo cab
i have all this aplications in a s200 wm5!

touchflo requires Touch.dll, and Touch.dll is not an application. Itz part of the OS which is device dependent. Unless someone writes a fully working touchflo cube, managed to remove the current touch.dll with his own dll, then it is portable from device to device.

funny thread in the sense some pple is asking the same again and again.
I would summarize state of art as follows:
-Some ROMs with Touch flo have been developed by forum members for devices other than HTC Touch.
-Touch flo files are available for those who want to cook their own ROM, at least for OMAP devices.
- As today,Touch flo files can not be installed in a device over an existing ROM because installation can not overwrite certain files as they are in use by the system.
Workaround (Yet To be made)would be an installation routine that unloads files to be replaced, and loads touchflo ones. This routine should be performed after every reset, as resets reloads the files from original ROM.
Here are a bunch of cabs to give you the look of the Touch but these won't give you the finger scroll feature.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=311225
I personnally don't care for the eye candy on my wizard, but like the touch driver that lets me finger scroll. The OEM packs I've seen bundle this driver with the today plug-in, but there's just a few files specific to the touch driver that can be separated out from the today plug-in.

to get fingerscrolling you'll only need the touch.dll not othere file or regestry setting but somehow it doesn't seem to work for all devices. I don't know why... if it just can't work or no one figured it out yet?

Hello all,
I've been searching for a while, even in this forum, but dont find any solutions concerning these two issues:
1) how can i set the date long (dddd dd mm yy) in the today page? My Diamond 2 runs the original French rom, wm 6.5.
2) I ve found a lot of solutions on the Internet to add a town, but no one works, and most of the time i must hard reset the device. HTC Sense doesnt start again. Softs like Weather Database Editor for example make HTC Sense not working and doesnt even add the town i entered...
If someone knows the right way to do so, i would be grateful
Thanks in advance

I confirm it works perfectly with both WM6.1 and WM6.5, just follow the instructions carefully..if you have any problem you can PM me, tell me the city you want to add and I'll make the manila file for you.
Thanks to both of you. I've already tried this method but it didnt work. As i said in my first post, each time i install "Weather Database Editor", it makes my HTC Sense unable to launch. I'll try one more time... but i almost sure i'll must hard-reset...
It would be kind of you Superman122 - sorry, Sualc - if you could make it for me. The town i want to add is Valence, in France, and the AccuWeather code is : EUR|FR|FR022|VALENCE
Thanks again!

Advanced Config - Menu - More settings - TouchFLO 3D - Push "ok" for the error - Home page date format - ok - reset...
Hope it helps you
Valence (FR) weather Added
@ Siber:
Here's your city weather on manila!! (see attached screenshot)
I made a .cab file so that you don't need to install Weather Database Editor anymore,by the way this may interest everyone..
ATTENTION:Since I have an italian ROM, the modified manila file I'm posting contains country names in italian, if that causes any problem or simply you don't like it, please post your manila file and I'll work on it. You can try the one I posted just for the fun of it but BACKUP your manila file first!
Ciaociao
Thank you sualc for your help,
Is there an easy way I can edit the files you posted to add a couple of cities to my TD?
EUR|CH|SZ021|LUGANO|
EUR|IT|IT009|COMO|
Saluti,
Filippo
Lugano (CH) and Como (IT) ADDED
The easy way is to install the .cab I posted above and then manually add your cities using SQLLiteAdmin. If you have an italian ROM you can modify the manila file in previous post, you could edit the "Valence" line (if not interested in..) and any another city you're sure you're never go to .
I am being very brief because I assume you read the "official" instructions, if you have any problems,PM me
EDIT: Well, Since It's almost Xmas and I feel Santa Sualc, i modified the manila file for you, but remeber to install AddCityWeather.cab aswell!!(AGAIN: this file is certified to work in an italian ROM, if something goes wrong I will need you ORIGINAL manila file)
P.S: It's really stupid not to put those cities by default, ok they're not enormous cities like Tokio but they are regional Capitals in their respective countries..
Sulac, you are the best! it works great!
Yes, countries are in italian in the list, but it doesnt matter. Thanks again!
No prob,mate..But seriously, if you want a nice&neat work,just post your manila

Hi koen-ronse and thanks... but i dont find "TouchFLO 3D" in the settings. Are you talking about HTC Diamond 2?
He's not online at the moment, I think I can answer for him:
Advanced config is an application that you have to download and install (google for it), then follow his instructions
Sualc, i didnt want to bother to much, but since you tell me, i post my manila file
Thanks also for the answer about the advanced config!
Here you go, Valence in french database.
Sualc, thanks for your help, and your fast reply!
@ koen-ronse, thanks also, i found the soft "Advanced Settings" and it allowed me to do exactly what i wanted.
It's nice to see there are always people ready to help when needed.
Thanks Sulac,
I can confirm that it works perfectly on my Italian ROM
You are very nice!!!
Buon Natale

See "Show Weekday" (thread 303771) in Modaco Topaz forum.
Hello, I would like to change the software on my P3300 (WM5). I want to install the latest version.
It is possible to tell me what the appropriate link?
Thanks
do you want the official WM6? or a cooked ROM?
Silvio
what would you advise me?
depends on what you want. If you want the official version of Windows or the slightly less stable but more recent ROM cooked (unofficial) by the users of the forum..
look below your thread to see some of that..
Is it possible to put the version that you are using, if so give me the link because I've been searching and still found nothing.
Thank you for your patience and help.
are you Italian?
No, I'm Portuguese but there is no problem that the device is in English, if there was better in Portuguese
I haven't the portuguese or WWE shady's rom...you can ask him about my version (the best of shady for me...) or: click for his new version..
Thanks for your help, tomorrow I'll try and then say if it worked

Hello everyone !
I don't know if i'm right, but if not, pardon me and just tell me or move it
Other thing, sorry if there was a post about it, but I did lot of search, couldn't find it...
So, I'm runnig on WM6.1 on Touch pro 2 with htc stock french rom (actually the fastest rom for me...). It's the rom wich has the official memory fixe(the informations are just in case...)
I want to have manila 2.5 (or even 2.1, but can't find it in WVGA as cab file).
I found every cab on : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=746086 (in the bottom of the first post)
The problem is, if I install the 2.5 manila cab, every thing works (of course with the "IsWM6.5" value change) except for one most important thing...
Menus, text, everything which could be relatted (I think) with language isn't shown correctly. It displays me something like IDS_MENU_BLABLABLA .
How can I solve it ?
If you can tell me were to find a cab for sense 2.1 in WVGA it would be great too
I'm using a mac, so I can't make my own rom (for having sense+wm6.1 without htc messaging).
Thanks for all
ps : Sorry for my poor english...
