Hi ppl. I want to get rid of all TF functionalities from TP,that means TodayPlugin,Scrolling,etc...which is a part of that rubbish. Could anyone point me,how to do that? I think that Hardreset without installation of that cab can be the way,but I don't know,where to find all other cabs shipped(as ExtROM). Next thing...if someone wants to make a test after hardreset to interrupt the cabs installation procedure to disable that,I want to know,if the home/back keys will lost also their default functions without installation...someone to try it(I don't want to hardreset just for test)? If these things will be successfully for me,I will do that. Thanks.
I think it's start menu, settings, then something to get to a menu where there's a check box next to TF3D, and uncheck it.
Thanks for your tip,but I am afraid,you misunderstood my question. I want to disable EVERYTHING,that is 'extended' by the TF,not only Homescreen. Especially touch scrolling(HTC's solution is very lazy,I want to use SPB PocketPlus) and home/back keys functions(I want to handle them with AEBPlus). Simply I want to have a kind of lite ROM without any TF functionalities.
goto Window\StartUp\ and remove the .exe for touchflo
n copy it to some other folder. finally softreset...
I have deleted all of them,those were there as default(AutoShortcut.lnk,HTCStartUp.lnk,PKG.lnk,poutlook.lnk and Services.lnk),but it doesn't help absolutely. I have in startup some shortcuts,but they are known things(Chronos,AEBPlus,GPRS Monitor,auto-SIP script). No TF shortcut is presented,even I see all files in system including hidden/system.

You should be able to disable touchflo scrolling using Schap's Advanced Config. I don't have a TP, but i know the settings are in Advanced Config. You might try there.
Did it already,no success...

A couple questions:
1) Are you using the most updated version...3.2 i believe?
2) Did you soft reset immediately after making the changes?
3) What features are still remaining, that you're trying to get rid of and which ones have you managed to remove?

1...I have installed previous version,will try the new one tomorrow
2...yes
3...as I wrote before...I want to disable finger scrolling and unbind the home/back keys from their default functions(I think/hope,they are related to TF)

I don't think the home/back keys are tied to touchflo, but you might be able to remap them using the key mapping in advanced config. I obviously don't know since i have a touch pro, but i know that some keys can be remapped using that program. Also i know that some of the updates in Advanced Config are related to changes that weren't sticking on the TP, so hopefully that's yoru problem.
Just to share: I tried all the above methods to disable Touchflo (finger scrolling) and it didn't work for me.
- unchecked scrolling in Settings -> Touchflo
- disabled touchflo scrolling using HTC Advanced Config
I got it working by doing the following:
Create a zero byte file and copy/overwrite the following files:
\Windows\Biotouch.exe
\Windows\Biotouch.dll
\Windows\StartUPBiotouch.exe
Now I am get my scribble pad (RemindMe / PhatPad) to work properly without the lag
Good luck!

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?

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?

Does anyone know how to stop the pop up keyboard? IN general it doesnt come up, except in OPERA, and man is it annoying. Ive tried a registry key change (hkey_current_user\control_panel\sip\allowchange), but it keeps changing back from 0 (i set) to 1 (the original) after I try to soft reset it to make it stick... Any clues?

Normally it will disappear as soon as you type a letter on the hardware keyboard.
Install both Sleuth's SIP Change and Beemer's Null Keyboard.
After BeemerNullKB.cab the Pro should ask you to soft reset.
Open SIPChange and choose NullKB.
I've tried several other ways using the registry, but all cause problems. This is the best way and it doesn't constantly use any resources. SIPChange just run's once at startup and that's it.
Big thanks to Beemer and Sleuth. I should link to their threads, but just to lazy to search again. Sorry
+1 on KBNull plus Sip Changer.
However I still run in to the keyboard popping up when I am in Opera. It is true it disappears as soon as I start to type something but I would prefer it not come up at all even in Opera.
I may be wrong, but I believe Opera has it's own keyboard. I had a Touch Diamond for a while and I noticed that the font on the keyboard looked different while I had Opera launched. Also in landscape mode Opera has a completely different SIP from the device.

A basically equivalent method I use is the install NullKB and use SKTools to set NullKB to the default input method.
Disable Keyboard on Treo Pro...
This is how I've done it.. Seems to work. I haven't had any problems yet.
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sip

AllowChange - value:1 - change to 0
DragStyle - value:0 - change to 1
MenuBarHeight - value: 34 - change to 1
stevebrooks,
How do you get registry changes to stick??? Mine disappear on soft reboot. I've searched, and cannot find the answer!
Thanks,
Rich
try backing up the reistry and saving the changes so all will be restored when you restore the resgistry. just a thought

Not too sure why your registry is reseting. Mine is not. I did have a similar problem with registry resets on my Vogue. I ended up switching the Rom for a different one and never had the problem since. Sorry buddy.. No solution for you.
I really like the new start menu but I'd love to be able to access it when I have TF3D unticked. Any ideas on wether this is possible or is it too much a part of TF3D to separate out?
Thanks

I would like some of the other touchflow stuff like the contacts as well. But like you i dont want to use TF3D.
I do not think this is possible.
The start-menu is an sort of tab of TouchFlo, which needs TouchFlo to be launched.
What you could try is TouchFlo Detacher (use search function), it allows you to switch between the default windows mobile Today screen and touchflo, in this case TouchFlo is running (if you hide it instead of closing, option of TFdetacher)
Just an idea, not sure if it works, but you can give it a try..

Hey all,
I am currently using the energy rom with TF3D2..
I'm not to good at alterations to the phone and tweaks etc. but i am wondering.. on the home screen where the clock is.. the softkeys are LEFT: Contacts RIGHT: Comm Mgr.
Now my question is.. am i able to change the Comm Mgr. one (as i never use it) to say an action screen that i've installed? I have tried numerous things and they dont seem to work. On the original Touch Flo i knew how to do it but as i said, i cant figure out how to do it on the new one..
Any help would be much appreciated!

My bad. Thats a ROMeOS exclusive thing .
Sounds like you are using WM6.5.
The CHome homescreen takes over the softkey assignments the same way TouchFlo3D does. In order to change the Left and Right Softkey, you'll have to make the change manually in the registry or from a CHome Titanium Customizer.
The registry setting is easy if you know the link url to the file you want
Go to HKLM\Software\Microsoft\CHome\CClock\
Find the Strings "SK2TEXT" and "SK2URL". The SK2TEXT is the name the button will display, and the URL is the link.
If you're wondering, in the main CHome Key (folder) you'll find the SK1TEXT and SK1URL which is the Left SoftKey; although I would leave contacts up there.
he said hes using tf3d2. he didnt say he was using chome.
Thanks for that! I found it in the registry.. the only thing is.. how do i create a URL for the program that i want to run when i click that softkey?

Hi, i've used the Cab you provided and it worked; however it has also disabled the Proximity Sensor that blanks the screen when its next to your face, leaving it open to mulitple touches!
Is there any way to re-enable the sensor (or if that's too difficult) to restore the Phone function to its original state?!
don't use cabs for reg edits.. they really are a waste and you can't change the regkey back by uninstalling it
download and install CeRegEditor onto your PC
http://ceregeditor.mdsoft.pl/
connect your HD2 through activesync/msdc
run ceregeditor..
get to know the windows registry the easy way
if you go to tools/auto "jump to" when ever you highlight a reg key and copy it, ceregeditor will open that key..
so easy and efficient !
Thanks, I'll Try the App and see what's been done
Worked! Re-enabled the Slide to uncover Property, and that re-engages the Proximity Sensor!
Thanks Fard
So...how to disable that slide for more options now, so it dont effect anything else?
I just need to edit registry key from 1 to 0 or...?
This is now an option in the latest version of BsB Tweaks. I can confirm it works a treat.
Kinda OT:
But is there a way to make the "End Call" button to "Screen Off"??? It's stupid having the End Call button, as accidents do happens hitting it.

That's NOT TRUE!
Uninstalling a CAB made for a regedit does indeed go back to whatever registry settings you had earlier.
