question about customizing touch flo - Touch Pro, Fuze General

hey guys, this is what i'm trying to do:
when i go to contacts tab, when i click on all people, it opens up the default contacts program. i want it to open another program (finger friendly friends). how do i do that? i downloaded diamond TF3D config, and it doesnt seem like you can do that... any ideas? thanks

Check the iContact thread because I think this question was asked. I.e. if you hit the phone button and then "contacts" it will load iContact, however from the people tab it won't. I'm not sure they ever resolved that problem, but if they did, please post the response here, because iContact seems like a much better program (and the scrolling is the best I've seen on Windows Mobile...)

i didnt find anything (a link to that thread would be nice). but i'm thinking a simple registry edit would suffice??

Will 'Touch Settings' Program from Elf work for Polaris?

Is the 'Touch Settings' program a posible alternative for changing which programs are called up by the Videos and the Music button within the cube or is it specific to the Elf?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=324556
I'd really like to use CorePlayer for Videos, etc.
Thanks in advance for the help.

yea im pretty sure it'll work. dont have a device though to make sure
Nope, I tried it (all versions) and it won't even install - I get the "the program doesn't have sufficient system permissions" error message. Maybe someone will modify this app for the polaris - it seems like it would be useful since HHC doesn't customize the cube and this does.
** Bump **
I'm another Polaris user (well, it's on pre-order at the moment). This 'Touch Settings' program sounds like exactly what I was hoping to be able to use.
Is there any chance the program can be adapted to work on the Polaris? Can anyone hazard a guess from psargent's "the program doesn't have sufficient system permissions" when installing error message as to what the problem might be since I realise that it isn't reasonable to expect people like the author of this program to have every device at their disposal but if possible fixes can be suggested then maybe it can be fixed "blind"? I for one would be more than happy to validate any possible fixed version on a real device.

Mine is on pre-order as well, and I would love to see this....
PoorlyDuck has some inspiring skins, and then there is this post, on a different site, that changes the cube to six sided.
Here is Poorlyducks post,
page 23 has the skins....

I have posted a few different times to Carlos in the "Elf" forum regarding this topic. Unfortunately he has not responded. It would be nice to use this program versus making the neccessary adjustments to the registry manually. Just a note that permissions error I also received when trying to load to my Touch.
*Bump*
This would be great on the TC. I have found a few registry settings that look easy to change (for the 6 icon side), but a complete program would be better. It would be nice to have the media hub customized as well.

Sorry to hijack the thread but can you point me to the registry change to get the 6 sided cube?
Nope
Hi all,
I´ve got a German Orbit 2 aka TC and as far as I can see it doesen´t work. After installing all necessary files manually (due to rights-limitations) I can start the programm, but it doesen´t recognize my MediaMinihub. I can change the Phoo/Video/Music cube-side, but that´s it.
Maybe its because I got a German ROM...?
sorry for that.

PM sent.
Does anyone know what/where the registry settings are to point the HTC album to the storage card?

Hi, I'm the author of Touch Settings and I would be very happy to work with the community to get it working on the Polaris.
The CAB install error you're getting is v interesting. Steps to take to try and cure this problem are:
1. The device may be app locked, you need to download a program called Device Security Manager, then with your Polaris connected to Activesync, disable all the security:
Look at this web page for more info.
2. Also, try installing the sdcerts if possible (again, see above web page)
3. Check Free Storage memory; lack of this can cause the problem.
Please can somebody try all the above with the NEW VERSION 2.22 OF TOUCH SETTINGS (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=324556&goto=newpost)
If it doesn't work, I will upload a ZIP file of the individual files and we can try a manual installation.
Best

PS: I don't know an awful lot about security certs and device provisioning, so if any other developers can point me to a way of making the CAB install on the Polaris, please do.

The CAB install error you're getting is v interesting. Things to check first:
- Is the device app locked in some way: are the security certificates restrictive?
Look at THIS WEB PAGE: http://blogs.msdn.com/windowsmobile/archive/2007/05/30/all-about-application-locked.aspx
...download the Device Security Manager, dock your Polaris and disable all the security.
- Install the sdcerts if possible (again, see above web page)

Excellent Carlos....I was hoping you would take a look at this program for the Polaris!!

Thx anyway for your great application.

Please HELP!!!

Sorry to hear you've had problems. If you hard reset your device, your cube should revert to normal. If you are unwilling to hard reset your device, then if somebody could post a registry dump from a Polaris (clean, hard reset device) then I can post a fix CAB for you!
C
It works
Thanks Carlos, the 2.22pre version works very nice on my Couise.
I have only question:
If I try to change APLauncher layout I get a mesage "It seems that your HTC Touch Software is not recent....", but I can change the apps grid. What the message exactly means? There is any newer HTC Touch Cube version than what is on Cruise installed?
Tnx

Hmm. ...very interesting. Well, I don't have a Cruise/Polaris, so I don't know!
Could somebody please please send me a registry dump? And, if possible, the files Biotouch.exe, Mediahubmini.exe, APLauncher.exe and QDialer.exe from \Windows\ on the device.

Hi teride
No, there is a new build now that does not expire, we're up to v2.24. You can download from www.fatattitude.com/software. Let me know if it works for you!

Manila 2D and Easy Contact

Hi there,
I'm using Manila 2D and Easy Contact. Before, I was using iContact, and if I clicked on "All People" in the M2D-Tab, there comes up iContact. But with Easy Contact, there comes the normal Outlook-Contacts of WM... Any idea?
Thx,
MCXSC
Well, this isn't really an answer to your question (I think this is just a good time to throw it out there), but it would be nice if there was a way to set default programs, like on a PC.
Then problems like this might be non-existent.

Actually you can, using programs like SKTools, or I believe Schap's Advanced Configuration.
Try checking your settings in easy contact as i now use easy contact and it launches from all people and from contacts in my dialler it has fully replaced the old wm contacts

Love TF3D but I miss my WM Today screen

Been using TF3D on Energy Warhark ROM for my Raphael. I like TF3D now that it works (in the non-stock ROM). But - I miss today screen on WM. Specifically - I need to see my tasks list often and I also like SPB insight runing. Anyone know how to switch fast between manila and WM Today w/o tediously going to setting tab? Or better yet, a tweak for manila for tasks tab?
what you can do is find the "search" link on top and use it.
Look for Manila Detacher. There's a newer app like it in the raph software forum, but I can't remember the name. There's also the Manla Today Tab, but it may not work on that version of Manila.

Second Today is another ap.
You can configure it to run TF3D and set one of your soft keys to Second Today and you can toggle between interfaces.
I run this also in conjunction with SPB Mobile Shell, on the other soft key just to show off....

Contact Manger with fingerfriendly option to edit contacts

Hey guys!
i got a little question about contact managers. if already tried a couple managers (like icontact, pocketcm) but in none of them i was able to find a way to edit my contacts more fingerfriendly. as soon as i wanted to edit a contact (new number, email, whatever) or create a new one i always had to use the standard windows mobile interface which sucks in my eyes.
so my questions:
is there a manager thats has a better gui to edit contacts? if yes which one?
do icontact, pocketcm already provide that option and i just didnt saw ít?
please help me and give me advice how you manage this "problem"
i hope i posted in the right forum otherwise please move it to the right section.
thx

PocketCM does it. For new contact, edit contact, etc... the only thing that is still "windows mobile" is contact picture selection.
hey!
@stylez: thanks for moving. wasnt shure which section is correct.
@claus: thx ill try it and give a freedback
@tene: which version are you using? any specific theme plugin or whatever? because in my version it dosnt work.
edit: @tene: yeah youre right the version i installed couple minutes ago offers that option but i got all sorts of problems with the themes of it and with the keyboard on my 6.5 rom. maybe ill have to try a different keyboard and check whether that will help. or maybe it does not work properly on wm6.5
@claus: well the function is good but the view is a little ugly...

Manila Facebook Tab

Hi guys,
Sorry if this has been asked and is a really obvious answer, but I've used the search function and I can find things saying "Yeah, great idea", but nothing that has actually been done to download and installed.
I've got an HTC HD2/Leo and I'm looking for a Facebook tab for the Sense/Manila 2.5 interface. A friend of mine said there is a mod available, but I just can't find it anywhere!
Any guidance would be much appreciated.
Thanks
never heard of it, but it sure will be nice to have it
only twitter tab
Never seen such a tab and dont know how effective it would really be..

I think it would be awesomely effective. I don't use twitter but I can totally see the benefit of the tab. I'd like to check my friends' updates like I check my text messages. The integration with my contacts is excellent, but I'm left craving more interaction. I'm still a little surprised that this hasn't been implemented before now by the OEM directly.
Anyway, add my +1 to this request. Snoogans.
I must confirm, that the first HD2 divice I had, really integrated FB in manila tabs. The second which I bought from T-mobile (after sending the first back as the second was better "deal"), unfortunatelly did not. Nor have any WM upgrade such tab involved since then. So I am also wandering if it would be possible to find it at least officially. And as e.g. the TV can be integrated in Manila (which is result of XDA inventions, I think it must be possible to solve the problem otherwise as well.
Thanks for help too.
