Disabling Touch FLO

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.

Excluding Apps from TouchFlo

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?

Problem disabling TouchFlo scrolling feature

Hi,
I'm having problem disabling TouchFlo scrolling feature. I tried the Advanced Configuration tweak and FTouchSL option to diable it but it doesn't seem to have any effect on my Touch Pro.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

same here, anyone could give help ?

HKLM\Software\OEM\TFLOSettings:EnableScroll = 0

Have tried, but .... ><

I have it done with this tweak: Create zerolength files named BioTouch.dll,BioTouch.exe,StartUPBioTouch.exe and overwrite shipped in \Windows with these. Maybe backup of original files can be good. Softreset afterwards. If you plan to use SPB PocketPlus to finger scrolling,I have described how-to in this forum.

Thanks TomasNM, u are always helpful ..

Softkeys..

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!

Have you used advanced config?

I have cahnged it using softkey manager that came with the rom but it still doesnt work?

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?

[Q] BSB Tweaks & HD2 Tweaks and other performance tweaks

This is my first post here and I am not writing a lot of threads...
Therefore, please accept my apologize for not using the correct thread name/title for this. Hope [Q] is correct for a question. Oh, and you might have already recognized that I am not native english...
My question is:
Thanks to the help of all the great developers here, I was able to find a lot of really good programs and tools here which make my HD2 the gadget of my dreams. I have tested A LOT of tools for my device and spent a lot of time to find out the "best configuration and setting". However, I can not figure out the following by myself:
I tested the well known BSB Tweak (Version 1.6) and the HD2 Tweak (English Version 1.2.0) Both have their good parts: BSB has this great Rotation option and "MAnila Left Softkey change". HD2 Tweak allows me to disable the annoying Phone Keypad sounds (this is important for me) and allows me to set A-GPS (although I have to admit that I didn't yet figured out what the activation effects-isn't it the same as using QuickGPS???). and some other
stuff...
I remember reading that it is not recommended to have both applications running.
(What a long introduction...) The Question:
Does anybody know for sure if these two programs are interfering each other?
In addition I have installed the Chainfire Patch (which is great for games) and the "TX 3d Performance Update" which I found here:
[REF] [Sense 2.5 tweaks & mods][CABS] Thread
(I can not post direct links)
(second post, dated 26th February)
Do they interfere? Can I install both? I worry that I might install "too much" tweaks which claim to speed up my device but, in the end, slow it down because there are just too much tweaks running which collide...
EDIT: Just noticed that this was already asked by somebody else in the thread. Obviously, the 3d performance patch is replacing Chainfire. Does this mean I do not need to install chainfire at all?
Finally: Is there any cab somewhere to add the "ebook reader tab" to Manila?
I am using ROM 1.66.407.1 with Manila 2.5.19211619.0 and was, so far, only able to add the Manila TV Tab...
Thanks in advance for your help!
I am willing to offer something in return:
If anybody is interested (please let me know, otherwise I will not have to do this) I could write something like a "Guide to the ideal set-up for your new HD2". This "guide" is meant more for beginners who would like to have instructions which programs to install and which settings to made to have a great HD2. I know that there are a lot of threads around here with collections of programs and tools but there is not thread which says "Ok, your're a NOOB so just follow this guide and install these programs... and you are fine" . This guide will also include some nice hints which I did figure out by myself.
Anyway, please let me now if such thing would be a good idea. It will be a lot of work so I do not want to write it "for nothing" (if you know what I mean).
Thanks and, again, sorry for any mistake!

I first used BSB Tweaks 1.6. Later I came across HD2Tweaks 1.2 and installed that too.
Since both apps make changes to the registry, it would not be wise to run it at the same time
The hassle with BSB Tweaks is NCF 3.5 must already be installed prior to running it. Also, I noted that BSB Tweaks does not read the registry first upon running. I came across this when I had to re-load all my apps, patches and tweaks recently. I first ran HD2Tweak to make the necessary changes and then ran BSB Tweaks to do screen rotation setting for some apps. That's how I found out.
Since I found replacement programs for screen capture and screen rotation which are features not found on HD2Tweak, I uninstalled BSB Tweaks 1.6.
I did not install the chainfire patch. Hence unable to make comments on it. I do play games though .

Which app are you using for screen capture.
I need to do a walkthru for a friend.
I have BSB Tweaks on and I'm kinda happy with it, but more is always better
Am I missing something?

You don't need any tweaks for this. It's an option for turning it off in settings. settings-menu-more-private-phone-keypad.

I am using pocket XNView, www.xnviewpocket.org
It has a screen capture feature in the options where one can set a timer for the screen capture to be triggered. There are a couple of other free standalone screen capture apps e.g. www.iliumsoft.com/site/fp/screen_capture.php I have downloaded this as a stand-by just in case I ditch pocket XNview.

The screen rotation method I used is a program assigned to the left-hand button.
It cannot rotate the home screen for which I am fine with that.

did you ever get anywhere with your idea for 'noobs'? I would like some easier method to get all the basics that wont interfere with each other. Havent attempted messing with the registry until I get a little better feel for these things, but I probably should update my ROM-I think???

YES I would love a beginners guide. I can give it to my sister and everyone I know who has the HD2. I just got it and someone directed me here for tweeks but I've never done a tweek!!!

Need somethin which can make all the screens to landscape

Hi guys,
Pardon my lack of knowledge in the subj. but do we have any app/ theme which can make use of the accelerometer and switch all the screens b/w Pot and Land mode. If possible please direct me to some writeup on how to do it.
Regards

go for FlipIt. Its the fastest rotationapp there is. PM me if you cant find it...as i am on my ppc

im using the screen rotation from AEButton, its awsome how i can rotate with just one button press =D

I think gyrator might be what your looking for, It worked fine for me...

try bsb tweaks awesome app and does a lot more than just turn the screen around such as zoom on all programs and other tweaks that make the htc hd2 a whole lot better. im not allowed to post the link to you as i am a new user myself, but search for
BsB Tweaks 1.6
and you should be able to find it

get Graytor 2 it rotate EVERY windows
