What application/plugin/whatever is this? - General Topics

I remember seeing tons of screenshots for this and figuring/hoping whenever I upgrade to Windows Mobile 6.1, it would be there. Well, it's not, or at least not in Verizon's installation. What is this application or plugin and where can I get it? It is something I can install just like I've done with the HTC home plugin or is it something that has to be in the rom? Thanks, and sorry if I'm asking a question that's been asked a billion times before. I have no idea what to call this .

The screen shots are both from a WM6.1 Standard device. Do you have a Standard (ie no touch screen) or a Professional (with a touch screen)?

Professional (with touchscreen). So you're saying that layout is only intended for non touchscreen models? That sucks. I think that's a much cleaner layout than the out-the-box layout professional offers. Any ideas or am I just out of luck? Thanks.

You could browse through the countless number of themes and launchers available.

Guess it's time to find a new HTC touch home launcher. Thanks.

If I were you I would invest in Wisbar Advance Desktop. You could easily achieve this with it.

Never heard of it before. Looks pretty sharp, thanks for the heads up!

There is also a throttle launcher skin which looks similar to this. I think it is the windows mobile 7 skin. If you do a search it should come up pretty quickly.

Shortcut for rotating screen in Wm5

Hi!
I'd like to have a small icon in the lower part of my "today screen" (see picture), which switches between portrait and landscape view. I'm sure this is not a big deal, and there a plenty of apps for this purpose... but I haven't found them yet.
Any ideas?

My suggestion, install PHM Tools for rotating, and use PHM tray launcher to stick an icon in the tray.
But there is a hack on the board to use the "proper" rotate screen service. It wasn't a particularly effective hack IIRC, but it was there. Can't remember how to find it now though!

Do you mean this hack?

Sounds good, but doesn't work for me. I'll try again.
No, there was another hack specifically for Hermes. But again, IIRC didn't work for all.

u might consider to use ilauncher(sbsh.net) it has such a functionality. it works for my artemis and Universal
i developed that application many months ago because i didn't love HTC Plug of my p3600... the "secret" is ChangeDisplaySettingsEx API
Here's the thread I was thinking of, mysteriously hidden under the search "hermes rotate screen". Who'd of thought it?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=1098622#post1098622
Gives the "original" screen rotate icon.

Unfortunately, it's not working on my Charmer (I thought this is an wm-issue and not related to the device).
-> I'm gonna use one of the 3rd party apps. Thanks for the feedback!
// EDIT
The hack *does* work on Charmer. I did a small mistake... big impact.

iPhone confusion!!!

Hello!
I am trying to get the latest version of iPhone theme for my Wizard. But for some reason, I believe there are two different types of themes on the net. I found one here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=302739 and the other one here: http://mahmood1.com/iphone.aspx This second one uses Wisbar Advance. Which one is better one to use as both have diferrent looks to the theme, one with the fishes and the other with just icons? Where can I find the most updated version of iPhone?
- TKN
Wisbar changes your today screen with apple icons. The other one by Gumps (great by the way) is a program that changes the user interface and nothing to do with the today screen.
i honestly like to stay away form wisbar...

The slidebar option comes in both wisbar iphone version and the other version?

Which one is better in performance and functionality: Wisbar version or Gumps version?
It appears everything on that page was delveloped by XDA users. You do not need wisbar to run the iphone program. Wisbar is only for the six iphone like pictures toward the end of the page. I am running the exact same setup as described on that site. You can install everything except the osz.wa and osz.wad, those are the theme for wisbar. I would also suggest going to the forum pages directly some of those apps have been updated.

Custom User Interface

Hey people,
I own an E-Ten X500 (WM6). I just can't stand the Windows Mobile UI and I want to make my own one, similar like the iPhone UI. I tried PointUI and loved the speed and how smooth the animations are, but the design isn't what I'm looking for, plus when pressing e.g. messages, you go back to the default Windows UI.
Is it possible to totally replace the Windows Mobile UI? I don't know much about programming, but I know a little ActionScript. Is it possible to create a 'total' UI for windows mobile in Flash? Any tips?
Easy..... Buy an iPhone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
an iphone would be cutting back on functionality alot. I too hope a UI replacement for windows mobile is made, although one based on flash wouldnt be very good i think as was evident from an sms n contacts UI app whose name i cant remember. I dont know alot about wm programming OR UI stuff but i do hope someone comes out with an alternative UI for WM just like we have magnificent UIs for xp etc like litestep.

New Manila Screenshots

HTC’s “Manilla” is basically a customized interface that’s on top of the standard Windows Mobile 6.1 Professional OS. BoyGeniusReport.com reports that “Manilla” is not technically TouchFLO 2.0, TouchFLO 2.0 just has a few updates to the scrolling part of it and the cube, nothing more than that.

looks quite good but there are much possibilities to let your phone looks like that
nothing new for me that is the genuine manila stuff. the htc home plugin though is from the 7510 rom. the comm mananger also, audio manager also, and u see opera 9.5 405 the white/gray dialer is the manila dialer. the other one is just a athena gray dialer.
What app do i need to show running apps in the taskbar like some of the pictures show?

Loving Touch Commander!

I am not one to dig into the guts of my device and edit code. So a lot of the cool stuff that others are doing with their devices was not going to happen for me. I wanted finger navigation and quick access to call me contacts. I did a Google search for Windows Mobile Touch Navigation and there it was, 7th item listed.
I am running the free demo and it is totally solid, have not needed to reset device once. I will certainly purchase the product, it does everything I want it to and more. Here is the link to download. http://www.touch-commander.com/download-exe
I have had a few questions about the product and they have been great and getting back to me.
I just noticed that there are some new skins available as well, I am gonna grab those straight away, the Aero one looks sick!
Hope you all enjoy.
I will certainly purchase the product

If you live in the UK, it's currently being given away free with em... PDA Something*.. along with Resco Keyboard pro - all for the sum of £4.
* well come on there are not that many PDA magazines, go down to the newsagents and find it!
When I tried it on the samsung i780 last week, it worked like a piece of crap.
Is the Touch Commander for VGA Screen too ?
