All I want is the theme like the one NBD 7.9... with the big clock, access to weather, contact, programs, sound and music BUT WITHOUT the TOuchflo Cube since I barely use the cube at all and I keep ending up everywhere everytime I tried the cube.
Any suggestions.
Thanks
Suggestion
Yes,
Install xda mobile 6 (if you didn't already do this). Search the forum on howto.
Second install the htc home plugin, the standard htc skin, black communication manager, htc music player and black dial pad. See following thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=311225&highlight=TouchFlo
The result in the touch software without the cube. At least I think it has, but correct me if I'm wrong. (Never seen the Cube working)

dont do this...the result will be a very slow device.....
is more easy you use NBD and remove the shortcute from left button.
you will have a more fast rom then doing this

yea u are right and the cube does work by the way lol
works perfect, the only small insue, is the second time when you open it
this wont show the cube screen, you need scroll the cube (force the screenchange) and voala!
the cube apears again
cube works?
Which rom have you guys updated? Can't get the rom with the touchFlo working on my MDA Vario (qtek9100). Anybody any experience with this device and the cube?
greetz!
Thanks!!
I guess I will sticking with NBD 7.9 and just try to get rid of the touchflo on the bottom right of the screen. I was hoping that by just running the HTC home without the touchflo will speed up my mda.
Again thanks...
I've had my Orbit 2 for one day and find internet explorer unusable, so much that I'm considering sending it back and staying with my hermes/tytn/Orange M3100. The touch scroll/flow is very very sticky and slow.
On my hermes I have SPB Pocket Plus installed with the 'Smart Scrolling' feature on. With this, Internet Explorer finger-scrolling down web pages is super-smooth and fast.
I installed SPB Pocket Plus on my Orbit 2 thinking this would sort the problem out but when installed on the Orbit 2 the Smart Scrolling feature is missing (!?)
I really don't want to send the phone back, so any help with resolving this issue would be very much appreciated.
Please.... This has already been posted so often! Why don't you simply use the search function?
I'll give you one hint, however: ie_slow_scroll_fix.cab
sorry, I did search but didn't find that cab. thanks for the pointer!
I've installed it and scrolling is much improved, but still nowhere near as good as om my hermes with SPB Pocket plus installed with the Smart Scrolling feature.
Does anyone know why the Smart Scrolling feature of SPB Pocket plus isn't available when installed on the polaris (Orbit 2)?
try disabling htc's touchflo 1st?
It appears SBP PP's Smart Scrolling is not compatible with any TouchFlo device. I suppose thats a good enough reason for a little donation to support the chefs with their cooking of a TouchFlo + SPB Smart Scrolling compatible rom.
also u can try PIE for windows 6.1
Why not install the new Netfront Browser 3.5? It's got a really smooth scrooling function combined with tabbed browsing and the zoom-out function (like Opera mini). And it's free until May 31, so you won't have to worry anymore for the next three months.
The IE_slow_scroll_fix.cab, however, made scrolling perfectly smooth on my device. I don't think it could be much better. So perhaps you try to do a hard reset and then install it first or uninstall SPB and then install the cab? It should work almost perfectly...
Think TouchFlo + SPB Smart Scrolling compatible is impossible. You'd have to choose one. That's why I'd rather use SPB which at least comes with updates for bugs.
I agree with maati:
Install Netfront. Maybe till end of May HTC has released a new rom where the bug is fixed.
This worked for me
try this one also.. PIE for WM6.1

Guys, thanks for the suggestions!
I already have Netfont Browser 3.5 installed, and it has a very nice 'action'. Is there any way to get it to scale down the web page to a column like Internet Explorer does?
I've just tried Pocket Internet Explorer for WM6.1 (Thanks for the link alipi2007) and running this along with the IE_Slow_Scroll_Fix cab seems to do a better job.
However, let me give you an example to decribe the issue I still have:
When using the Polaris to view the index of this forum (http://forum.xda-developers.com/index.php), I flick my thumb from the bottom of the Polaris screen to the top three times in quick succession - the screen scrolls and halts at the picture of the Wallaby handset.
Now, when I do the same on my Hermes running SPB Pocket Plus with Smart Scrolling, this three flicks of my thumb up the screen takes me down to the picture of the Vogue.
Quite some difference, don't you agree?
It's this speed of navigation and fluidity that I need on my Polaris.
Since some weeks, I'm thinking about of buying the Touch Pro and couldn't find the information in this forum I was looking for. My question concerns the usability scrolling through large screen content without a click wheel like my touch cruise. In a local store I played a while with the Touch Pro and it was strange to navigate through the screen content with the arrow buttons. Is anybody here, who has changed from click wheel to a device without that wheel and can say something about the usability?
The other thing was, that I often pressed the other buttons while navigating.
The last thing (just a minor issue, not worth to open a new thread for it): Is it possible customize the today screen to show more than one plugin inclusive the TF3D? The TF3D looks nice, but its full screen, something that I dont want. On my Touch Cruise, I have the Home Screen Plugin (that thing with big clock), PocketPlus and HomeScreenPlusPlus.
On Touch Pro the area arround the arrow buttons is used for zooming in a couple of applications.
You can change through registry this function to make it scroll, like your Touch Cruise.
However, scrolling a large document never seems hard for me. I just use gestures...
As for the other question you have, when and if you buy TP search for Second Today. It adds a second Today, free of TF3D, where you can enable any plugin you want.
Thanks for the info, they should help me in making a decision. The only problem is the justification for buying a new ppc. My "old" touch cruise is just a half year old. *g*
Hello all,
I just got my Treo a week ago, and sucessfully got M2D running on it Thursday using the package found here. (Without RealVGA),
But I noticed on the way home yesterday I lost HSPDA and the phone would only connect to 3G. I also couldn't switch bands from the Phone settings. So last night I hardreset and started over, and this time I did not install the HTC Task Manager from the package since the Pro ships with its own version. Didn't install Google Maps either in favor of the version in the Pro's ROM.
End result is the Phone settings are back to normal, I can switch bands and it connects to HSPDA. But, I don't have the Task Manager as a part of TouchFLO, I have to get it from Windows itself. Any way around that?
Thanks for any help.
found where? no link.

Excellent! our own forum.
First off the M2D installation instructions can be found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=2840311.
This is a very clean install of the HTC Diamond interface and works great with the 320x320 resolution. The contributors there have been VERY responsive and helpful.
Second, if you install M2D you should also take a look at KaiserTweak or AdvancedConfig: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=KaiserTweak. BOth have ways to speed up the TouchFLO interface that make the experience much better.
Third, check often and update M2DC http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=427392&page=79. It will make your experience with M2D much better.
Last, I've been getting a Windows error the past few days that says, "A problem has occurred with filesys.exe." I've searched xda and find references to the error but can not find a resolution. Does anyone else experience this and have you any fixes? The issue may arise from M2D or from Opera 9.5 Beta (which I also highly recommend).
I've upgraded to a Treo Pro from an HTC Kaiser. A nice phone, but compared to the Treo Pro a real clunker. However, many people have done banner work around making the HTC Windows Mobile experience much better than Microsoft has. Check out thier good work as well but be careful - our screens are square 320x320 and most everything in the kaiser forum fits on a kaiser screen.
Thanks for creating a seperate forum for the Treo Pro (a.k.a., HTC Panther).
What an awesome post. This is why this forum was needed. Now I have touchflo working perfect on my phone. The only problem is flick scrolling no longer works! I downloaded FtouchSL and it works like a charm. Only problem is it isnt compatible with the HTC Touch Flo. Anyone know a way to add flick scrolling to internet explorer, and messages that works with M2D?

Since posting this, I've also installed RealVGA 96dpi found in this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=443385. I thought I had the best of everything then I saw what 320x320 really looks like.
I've also seen a reply to this original post noting that "My Favs" were missing. I've not experienced this in either IE (which I NEVER use any more) or Opera. In opera, you'll find your IE favs by touching the star in the opera menu bar at the bottom of the screen. That's my experience anyway.
I have installed with some issues:
I can't seem to make the weather app work, is there something else I need to install (sorry if this a noobie question) and also the launch application tab does not seem to work, I try to add apps just like in the quick dial tab and nothing happens.. also the google map search is not working.. any ideas? I followed the instructions but it does not seem to be working..
any tips would be appreciated, also if you happen to have an unbraded rom in english, it would be very helpful!
If you are running this setup of M2D with RealVGA at 96dpi, use the files in steps 2,3 and 4 from the link below to get everything scaled properly to the screen. Plus you get a nice blue theme color

Most up to date version of M2d
Hi everyone, i am new to this forum. I have installed the M2d version 017.18. I just wanted to know if this is the most up to date version avaliable for the palm treo pro. Any help would be much appreciated. Thank again for a great forum.

Found the blue theme. Works very nicely on my Treo Pro @ 96dpi. Are there other themes available here for 320x320? In particular, I'd like a dark orange, dark red & all black (or black & charcoal).
TIA
Bill
Over time, I have updated the files to customize m2d with RealVGA 96dpi on my Treo Pro. I have included my Step 3 of the install for the Treo Pro. Included is the Flip Clock, resized the location tab map images to fill the screen, and the HTCHomeSettings.xml has been updated to work with the new builds of m2d. I only take credit for finding what I wanted and making it all work.

This is excellent work. Thank you very much. This fixes some issues I mentioned in earlier posts in this thread with the mail screen and was easy to install. Let's keep this Treo Pro thread active!
For step 3, should I just be copying these files into the window directory? I could of course just run a sprite backup to be safe first but I am just curious.

A backup first is always good. Copy the Step 3 folder to your Storage Card. Stop M2D from Settings-Today-Items, by deselecting TouchFLO. Copy the files from the Step 3 folder to the Windows directory, and overwrite the existing files. Enable TouchFLO again, and that should be it.

Despite following advice I cannot intall M2D on Palm Treo Pro : message is " cannot find config file"
in fact the config manager is not launched.
Any tip ?
Thank you
Marco
mi treo freeze in inactive mode, is soo slow to activate, why?
Which is the last version to be installed with Treo Pro?
I found M2D Build 1.0.18203328, is it correct?
Thank you
Hi I got the same problem as you with the m2d. My application launcher, google map search and weather tab is not working. How do you solve it? I got a Treo Pro (Dutch version)
Thanks
And thats the problem, its not working on a dutch version. You need to flash it to WWE Rom. Before the pro, I have owned a HP 614. Had the same problem, but after flashing to WWE, i was able to install M2D
Hello all,
I'm recently returning to touch screen WM devices after having a 6.1 smartphone for a few months.
I can't live without finger scrolling so i must ask, which is the best add on for finger scrolling? I used to use ftouchflo, it was ok, but it wasn't kinetic. Then i upgraded to ftouchsl, but it was quite buggy.
Now I see the touch diamond and touch pro/fuze as well as the lg incite with nice, built in kinetic scrolling. Is there any way to port such an add on to the Tilt? (The phone i'm using) or are there any good alternatives?
Thanks!
does anyone have any input on this or is this sub forum just dead?
I've tried all different types of add ons and i'm really just looking for some users' opinions.
it's christmas lol wait and see what people say later on today
I don't think there's anything better to use than the FtouchSL...
use HTC Touchflo instead of ftouchflo, or ftouchsl,. it have so many option anyway,.
I beleive that if you install TF2D found on the development and hacking forum it will include HTC Touchflo, which works great as far as I am concerned.
htc touchflo is far more superior than ftouchflo or ftouchfloSL. I have tried both on my Polaris. The kinetic scrilling in HTC is very good.
You have a HTC Tilt yes? If so, is touch scrolling enabled? (Settings->System->TouchFlo, if that doesn't exist, I suggest you flash a cooked ROM, most of which contain TouchFlo built in).

The only and big advantage ftouchflo/ftouchsl has over HTC touchflo is that it is cofigurable. while using the handwritten notes (I use PhatPad) the touch scrolling can be switched off while using ftouchSL/ftouchflo whereas it remains a pain in thw [email protected]# using it with HTC touchflo.
Thanks everyone. I had a hermes a couple months ago and when i put m2d on it, it didn't include touchflo for the whole system. Apparently it does now? I'll try an m2d rom on my tilt when it comes in a day or two and see what happens.
