TF3D is good and all but when the keyboard is out the interface is a nightmare to me...
I understand when we slide out keyboard out we usually need to type...
but why would it force us to use just 8 fixed application that we can't even change...
Is there anyway i can change the way TF3D work? Or at least choose the app available when the keyboard is slided out?
I have no solution for you but I just want to agree...
The thing that bothers me most is the fact: When you slide out the keyboard you want to type but all the links on landscape touch flo do not start something to write but actually start other applications. So you need to use the softkey buttons quite a lot until you get to where you can actually type. So I rarely use landscape TF and usually go into the application first where I want to write and then I slide out the keyboard...
agree
i agree to, the landscape mode is not responsive when the keyboard is out..
Has anybody found how you can start to compose a new email from the keyboard yet
There is a registry string under HCU\Software\HTC\Manila called EnableLandscape. It should be TRUE. However if you change it to FALSE, when you slide out the keyboard you still have the portrait TF3D cropped...
It's not a solution ofcourse, but maybe it will leed to something...
This what you actually get:

I just just tried it....and yes the cropped TF3D just doesn't work with landscape=/ if it were a stretched TF3D i would've actually just took it lol..but it is just very hard to operate with it cropped

Any1 know how to completely disable (i dont want it in memory too) Touch FLO?
Hey...
Try this:
\\\REGISTRY\HKLM\Software\OEM\TFLOSettings\
EnableCube = 0 (original = 1)
It worked on my MDA Touch and i know it worked on some Orbit 2 too....
Tweaking instead of On/Off
The Polaris also has a number of other registry entries under TFLOSettings that, in addition to allowing you to turn Touch FLO on or off, also enable you to tweak its sensitivity. Does anyone know if these settings documented somewhere? I've done a search and found bits and pieces of information but not all the information in one place. Thanks.
WHY, oh why?

Question: Why would you want to disable TouchFLO? I personally think TFLO is the best invention since sliced bread...

I found this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=351082 under Tips & Tricks (post #6) from the Nike forum but it works on the Polaris. I changed the Touch Flo settings on both my Nike and Polaris from 15 to 50 and now it's much faster. Hope this helps, let me know.

I like TFLO. However, certain apps like PhatPad which I use don't behave well with it. So I would like to exclude certain apps from TFLO. I could do this with fTouchFlo by editing a config file. However, I don't know how to do this with TFLO and a search didn't find anything. Anyone help would be appreciated.

Good for you. To each his own.
I DON'T like it.
I want to use stylus or buttons only. I don't give a damn about finger functions on the screen.
Let people do what they want. Help them if you are interested and you can, but no need to denigrate them.
Don't take this as a flame - no offense intended - I just recognize that whatever feature exists for any mechanical device, some will love it, some will be indifferent, some will hate it.

I am not sure that is possible. Your best best is to make the PhatPad developers aware of whatever issues you are having so a possible fix can be applied to future versions of the app.
I want also disable TouchFlo and replace it with the 4 cube version SCLPF
Hello, I have my polaris for a week now.
But I have the oppsite problem. My TFLO is disabled, but I don't know why!
I dont have my Polaris in landscape mode, so it should work.
I don't have any strange programms installed.
Can anyone help me with this?
TFLO has reg settings to disable for certain apps. Eg there's one for photo album there.
Is there anyway I can benefit from TouchFlo and some of the SPB softwares (like phone suite, Spb diary, mobile shell etc.) both?
I would like to see multiple appointments on my today screen and also the task list by categories which is very important.
Moreover, I have found that the sound stuff doesnt work properly on any of these roms available here unless i use mobile shell which really keeps phone silent only when i have a calender item that marks me busy. TouchFlo sound option keeps the phone silent eventhough someone's birthday is there on the calendar or even if my out of office event is there on calendar..
when i killed twice manilla2d.exe all that absolutly useless (for me and maybe some other users) stuff as panel in the bottom and large alarm clock which makes my device stupid disappeared. now there is clean screen with wallpaper. very nice, i like it but there is string "tap here to launch touchflo tm". is it possible to disable manilla2d.exe startup on every boot and this start link on the screen? (via system registry file?)
so when it is completely disabled it would be perfect to have some tiny alternative as clock in system tray or on the screen. and one more useful possible function is smth like custom desktop shortcuts.
do you now such software programs?

works good on my vox (with dr. gonzo guava rom 0.5) and looks perfect. (i am using black theme). i didnt notice any bugs yet and its so fast too.
http://pointui.com/Home.aspx
little hint:
to unlock keyboard you have to press "up", then "down" on d-pad.
(thx h4waii)
Tried it a while ago on my Vox, only issue is that it doesn't run at the system level - so backing out with the End call button will exit the application completely.
BTW, you don't have to push center on the d-pad to unlock. Just up and down or even down and up quickly will work. Hopefully they add more support for skins and add the ability to input numbers from the home screen to place a call.
I have been playing around with this for a few days now. The interface is zippy and looks ultracool. However, there is almost nothing you can do to customize it to your liking. Because of this, it remains only a good idea for me, can't use it
Hopefully, the developers will fix all those issues and we'll have a really usable version for smartphones. That would be something...!!
Yes I'm also looking forward to it
I just want the ability to see which Wifi network I'm connected to, and a better application laucher (too much scrolling for me), also what said h4waii and of course skinning support.
And it would be perfect for me, I don't really use any specific plugin on homescreen anyway.
Personnaly I tested, and I wasn't enable to dial a phone number.
I had to bring back to WM home to dial a number.
I think it's a little borring...
Did you see this problem
Yes. There is no dialer for PointUI, hopefully they make one.

And so??? How do you dial a number?
Well on pocket pc they can hit the regular green phone key and that brings up the usual dial screen but it doesn' work on smartphones.
Well i's still a beta
Ok thank you DOc
it has been released for WM2003 (SE) now too as an Alpha Version, runs pretty stable on my XDA II with WM2003.

To dial a number, you should completely terminated the home.exe process, dial your number and then you can bring back up the PointUI home application. If you simply hit Home twice, it will keep the pointui process running in the background which seems to consume a lot of RAM.
I have my zero key mapped to upon triple keypress, close the active application.
I dont really see the advantage of using this program what functions does it add ?
I know that when the Touch Pro is in landscape mode with the keyboard slide out, there is no TF3D interface but only eight shortcut icons. Is there a way to allow TF3D in landscape mode with some sort tweak or program??? It will be so awesome if this can be accomplish. I am sure alot of people have the same question and interest in this.
You could use the Search button to find the answer, there are several threads like this one.
Anyway, welcome to the forum! As for the TF3D in landscape I am afraid the answer is no. You can't rotate it just yet. You could try with a VGA version of TF2D though...
I've had a lot of issues with the screen constantly rotating on my fuze when i slide the keyboard out. Goes all the way from Monx>Pfcsabre>At0mAng and even self cooked roms in Da_G's kitchen. I never install any kind of g-sensor applications either. All i do is use the default calibrator.
A soft reset seems to fix it for a bit but before long it shows again. It's very frustrating while trying to type an sms/email and it keeps rotating from portrait to landscape.
I've tried to search for it...but if you put in g-sensor or screen rotate all ya get are apps. Has anyone else encountered this before?
Thanks

I did encounter with At0mAng's new ROM...... its too much in convenient that's why changed to my own build ROM. Its some thing to do with gsensor pack used or some drivers used from Diamond ROM( I cook my own ROM in AtOmang's kitchen)
Seems like u have Gyrator installed.... I use Energy Rom and it only rotates to the default orientation when the keyboard slides out... and exception of the new opera...
Package/Application [OEM]
Some applications, such as Opera, handle Rotation internally ... have a look at the .REG/.RGU as well as the .INI file(s). Also verify the OEM .PROVXML's asa some of them include changes to Opera behaviour.
As for other rotation in other applications, G-Sensor (aka Sensor SDK 4.0) provides the abilitiy to configure White/Black list entries. If you look at the G-Sensor 4 package I posted to the OEM Repository (4Shared), you will find a .PROVXML that allows you to quickly define entries for both lists.
The original values for the entries in the .PROVXML are found in the .REG/.RGU file.
HTH,

That the frustrating part. It does it without being in an app. I can have the phone sitting with nothing running and just showing the tf3d screen..slide out the keyboard and just watch it switch back and forth

Rotation for Phone Canvas and Manila are also definable entries in the White/Black list for G-Sensor 4.
If you're up to it, download the WinMO 6.1.21051 kitchen (and packs) and cook a ROM with the 21051_Test_ERV_Profiles.zip - use the thread paperclip to locate the attachment. It's the ROM profile that I currently use for my device.
The Manila version is 1.2.35845.1_1813.6; Landscape should display and 8 button selection page. If you experience erratic behaviour, it could indicate a hardware related issue.

Hello, I can't install Fingerkeyboard on my new HTC HD2. When I try install i got a msg "instalation unsuccessful". Any solution of this problem??
I have it and it works perfectly :/
for me too its working fine.
Can You send my your .cab? I try version 2.0 and 2.1 and instalation doesn't start Where is the problem? I don't install .net frame work yet.
Also works for me, however when backspaceing (deleting) it seems to skip some characters. A bit odd, but I guess the timings are just off a little...
I had a lot of problems with Finger Keyboard on the Leo/Sense Roms and HTC's messaging app. If I used the shortcuts such as a smiley, on some of them, the cursor would jump backwards after the smiley was shown.... It bothered me so much I went ahead and disabled HTC's app and used the standard windows one (and by doing so lost all integration with the contacts tab)
Can someone here who has this app please test the shortcuts for me on their Leo? I get mine in a week.... I can live with the HTC messaging but I simply can't do without the shortcuts like the ".com", "..." and smileys! I hope it works!
Thanks!

I dwnload form other source and now it's works. Thx

I have exactly the same problem. Actually, it does that issue each time I hint something else than A...Z : space, dot, coma, @ etc. each time, I have to wait 1 second before typing the rest, if I don't, the cursor jump back and I continue typing in the middle of the word if I didn't care. It's really a mess.
I have a Touch HD "1", with Geranium 6.5 rom. I thought Opera Mobile 10 was guilty, but I've juste realized the same issue while entering a new appt in Pocket Informant.

I've installed the 6.1 Barebone, and everything get right
