Strange Discovery in WM6.0 UI. - Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De

Well, I did searching, but haven't found anything related to this little thingy. Maybe I was putting wrong keywords, but I didn't find any usefull and similar. And as you know I'm doing many reasarches before posting any topic. But I have discovered little thing in WM UI. And its related to:
Programs Scrolling speed.
Im running stock ROM - WM.6.0.
As you know, if you have many apps shortcuts in Start Menu/Programs, the speed is tragic. Its tragic for me, when i running programs from Start/Programs, but:
When I just ran the programs from shortcut in HTC Home Apps it run smoothly as hell. Can anyone tell me why thats going like this? What's the problem with shortcut in Start menu? And what's the differnce?
Can anyone check this out?
And I'm really sorry if i posted it and its already discovered
Cheers,
Chris
EH stupid fascinated Chris. I think this one is to delete Anyway sorry fot that.
Anyway I have done some experiments and my observation are:
If look closer at this, the "scrolling bars" are different. I mean this one from programs folder running from HTC Home gives more thick bar than this from menu start. And its the same one, which is actualy in Settings. And settings running smooth too for me too.
Noticed that programs folder from HTC Home take a bit more time to run. Whats going on with that. Can anyone explain this?

This has been covered in numerous threads http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=347268 and also in drivers threads

Windows 6.5 Help

I've been searching topics for a while, but I decided it'd be easier this way.
1. Can I change the start menu? Do we have that ability yet? It's extremely annoying.
2. How do I change the taskbar icons? I've looked through many taskbar topics, but I can't find a good answer. I did find one very large topic with a bunch of pictures, but that just scared me haha.
3. How do I change the Touchflo background?
(The two questions above were inspired by this http://www.mobilematt.net/NRGZ28/EnergyROM/New Chapter/Screenshots/Portrait.png)
4.Any clue where I can find a compatible Opera Browser? This IE isn't cutting it. At all.
5. Speaking of programs, do we have a list of programs that are compatible with 6.5 yet? Does the Youtube App work? Mine doesn't, it displays a tiny box in the corner of the Youtube app.
6. WOW IT'S FAST

Task Switcher

Hi there,
Have done some searching but not found anything. I may just not be looking very well, so sorry if that is the case.
On my old HD I remember an app (that you set to launch with the long press of a key) that brought up thumbnails of the apps you had running and allowed you to select which one you wanted to go to. Quite like Macs do if I remember correctly.
Basically I was wondering if there is an app around like that still. Ideally I'd love an app that would do that when I shook the phone, so then I could shake the phone, thumbnails of the apps would appear and I could select which one I'd like to run.
Not sure if there is anything like that or if anyone has the time/knowledge to make something like it.
Thanks.
There are loads of taskmanagers to be found. Like HTC's taks manager, and there is a .cab which makes this work on the HD2 (search on this Leo forum). I myself use wktask, which give a taskbar with icons of running apps, and press them to give them focus. I do not know of one with screenthumbs....
the one you are asking for is taskfasade....

Task manager stupid question

Today I've done some searching on the best means of getting apps to close when you press the X button on them instead of minimising and have found loads of threads on the subject but I'm really plainly doing something badly wrong I think.
The most common answer seems to be to use Dutty's task manager and in the past that was fine, but running 6.5.3 roms I can't because of how it clashes with stuff on the task bar.
So, the other options include apps like:
Touch X Task Manager
X2 Taskmanager
Arkswitch
AE Button Plus
Schap's advanced task manager
etc
The first two on the list after installing (and rebooting) didn't appear to be anywhere as I could not find an icon/shortcut anywhere to run them once installed!
Arkswitch and AE button I can't suss out how to get the close button to be set up properly, and schaps I can't even see a setting for it etc.
General point I'm making here is that I can't find an easy way to make this work despite trying a bunch of task managers and so on.
I'm sure this is just a case of me being thick and not seeing a setting that's right in front of me but I'd be grateful if someone could clarify for instance how I can do this. Apologies that this is a question already asked a lot on here but I'm embarrassed to admit that without using Dutty's, this is getting the better of me!
Cheers!
You could use TaskFacade and LMT to launch it. It does work quite well and looks pretty good, but as I'm using a stock ROM Dutty's is just faster and easier.
edit: I know this isn't exactly what you were looking for (with the 'X' and all that), but it's a quick way to access a task manager to close the apps.
Ignore me - I didn't read the question properly and answered something else
Thanks for the reply Jamie (and sort of John ).
Not quite what I'm after sorry.
An example is QuickMenu - a great app and it has a setting to choose the long/short press of the X button on screen in terms of closing/minimising apps that are running but it just doesn't seem to work, and whatever variation I try is the same.
You can try showacase task manager....
Cheers mate. I have actually tried 3 versions of that (the latest 3) and none of them will install. Must be something to do with the rom I'm using I guess.
So I'm still trying to solve this one....
how are you doing on your search? i am looking for a taskmanager that will give me that icon in the top right to see all running programs.. do you know what i mean?
if anyone can help me with that ( and i think its good for the op too )

Ameba is a must have for me in every rom I flash
Only just seen these two posts - thanks guys.
I'm trying Ameba at the moment, and so far it appears to be doing EXACTLY what I want.
I've opened and closed a bunch of apps now, and in task manager there is no sign of them afterwards.
Many thanks!

Smooth swiping beetween the homescreens?

Hi,
what sort of tweak, utility i have to use to swipe smoothly between homescreens, like in android. Cause if i swipe in the middle of the screen it is just vibrates and switch.
Thanks in advance guys.
That would be really nice to have. I'm sure though, that it'd be a lot of work to get that done, although this is only Sense itself.
I am pretty sure there have been something about this in the diamond section of the forum, but i simply cannot remember who sohuld have made it, or what it is called if it actually do exist

Did you install sdkcerts before installing the taskbar? Something in shellres.192.dll is causing the problem. Can you slide over to your setting tab? if so hit menu, all settings, system, then remove programs to uninstall. Or set up one of your quicklinks to access file explorer, navigate to the cab, click on it as if your were going to reinstall and let it uninstall previous version then softreset and see if it fixes everything..
Yes I installed that first as it instructed. I was finally able to get into my applications and removed it and everything seems to be back to normal. I would really like to install new themes, etc. any idea of a good place to get the downloads from (seeing how my first try didnt work)? Thanks!
^^^ You´re at the best possible place.
But, you need to know a little bit what you´re doing.
A taskbar must fit your WinMo version, plus, as the previous tip said, the certification must be there.
Most tweaks and mods are made for specific versions, like any other software for any other operating system.
Once you´re familiar with those things, you can pimp as much as you want.

Thanks and sorry for all the questions but you guys are the expert. I would like to change my theme, icons, layout, etc. as I am quite bored with mine. Can you point me in right direction? I've downloaded a few different ones but none seem to work.
Thanks in advance for all the help!

I´m not really an expert, either... just a user like you. All I made is some graphics for clocks because I like them in real life, too...
As a beginner, I would start to look a little to what others do. This thread here is great to start: Klick! Maybe just start with the last pages, where you´ll see the latest tweaks and mods. Sometimes people write where they got what they use, sometimes you can ask.
One of the greatest tools to change the layout and the functionality of Sense (that´s the basic user interface of an HD2 using Windows Mobile 6.5) is CHT (short for coOkiemonster´s Home Tab): Klick!
Add some graphic mods and tweaks, and there you go. Some examples:
[6THEMES]Nordpolcampers Tranquility Theme Cabs up! + many more Themes
[THEME] WP7 UI and WM SKINS [UPDATED 26/5/11]
[ Theme.Windroid - The Final ]******** HTC SENSE 3.0*******
Please carefully read in each thread what the author says about instructions.
Last, but not least, there is much more to discover (as in if you like clocks, too, follow the link in my signature for some examples, those clocks are made to be used with CHT).
Enjoy your great device, have fun with personalizing!
