Differences between Touchflo in Diamond and HD? - General Questions and Answers

Are there any differences between Touchflo in the Diamond/Touch Pro (I have a Sprint Touch Pro) and the Touch HD? How about the Diamond 2/Pro 2?
Also, if there are differences, what is the lexicon so I can make an informed decision on which ROM to download? TIA!

The info is out there, want the search, feel the search, BE THE SEARCH!
There aren't any differences in touchflo between the diamond/touch pro and the touch HD other than resolution. Your device is 640x480, while the HD is 800x480. With that said if there are any differences, someone has probably ported them to other devices or more likely other resolutions.
Case in point: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=493531
A great example of what is included in the Diamond2/Touch Pro2 devices. Again different resolution but that doesn't mean the rest of us have to be left hangin.
I'm using a new rom that includes the "Rhodium" manila and enjoy linking my contacts to their facebook profile to get updates and contact pictures. The Calendar tab is also a nice feature.
In the end, you really need to search around and try out some different options, everyones is a little different.

also, go to pdadb.net to compare devices.

[SOLVED] Best Kinetic Scrolling app?

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.

Hi guys.. Im new to this thing.. I just want to know if there is a thread for newbies like me.. Because im planning to purchase a winmo device (htc touch pro 2 / diamond 2) and just wondering what are the available tweaks for such device..
What is manila by the way? is it an application you install so that winmo will be customizable?
I've read that there is manila 2 and manila 3? What's the difference?
And also, is there a tweak which puts the new touch flo 3d from the diamond 2 to the touch hd? just wonderin because im also considering touch hd..
Thanks..

Hi guys I also havea question I have aHTC touch pro and some of the apps arent working because it says a i need a newer version of the .net framework i have all the origonal software on the phone ie no 3rd party roms . how do i upgrade my wm6 or .net framework??????
Generally, everything you want is available. TF3D for Diamond/Touch Pro/Touch HD
the new TF3D works on all and comes from the Diamond2/Touch Pro2
TF2D is a lighter version of it mostly for QVGA devices.
If you decide to buy a winmo device, you will be able to customize it pretty much any way you want.

First of all you can take a look here & here for Touch Pro II.
Then here & here for the Diamond II.
& last here & here for Touch HD.
The above is for collecting informations about the phones. My opinion is that Touch Pro II is almost perfect.
If you mean Manilla 2D or M2D & Manilla 3D or M3D the basic difference is the 2 or 3 dimensions equivalent. M3D has more effects than M2D & can be used only in powerfull PPC's with a lot of Ram. the PPC's that you are thinking can support it, don't worry .
For your last question all that I can say is that at XDA-Developers everithing is possible

TF3D or TF2D on NON-HTC Devices, WVGA

I've search the threads for these two, and even tried using the forum search, but there's just so much chaff amongst the threads that after hours of looking, I gave up.
So, a simple question. Is there a version of either TouchFlo 3D or 2D (The Manilla interface) available that runs on NON HTC devices, and has preferably been sized to WVGA resolutions?
If so, please throw me a bone (or better yet, a link!).
Ta
So I guess that's a no then?
I would like to know also
I'm currently reading up on the non htc patch,,,
it looks like manila runs on the Samsung i760
looks like the answer is in this 500 page thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=398173
Manila 2d WVGA here:
http://www.4winmobile.com/forums/e-...a-2d-tf2d-m900-f900-x960-wvga.html#post237210
I haven't tried it myself.
I'm looking for a definitive list of what would be needed to get manila 3D 2.1 or 2.5 up and running on a non-HTC device too. I know there will be lots of other packages to install in addition to manila itself, but it's hard to work out exactly what is needed.....

Difference between Rhodium and Tachi Dialer?

Been searching around the forum for this, but haven't found any answers. So can someone please briefly answer my question:
What is the difference between the Tachi Dialer and the Rhodium dialer??
Both seem to be ported to several devices other than the original, but I can't see any big difference in images...
Thanks for any help
They are fairly similar.
Rhodium supports conference calling and video calling (it's designed for GSM phones) and has a manila-esq bar of buttons along the bottom of the page. Parts of it don't work on VGA devices as it's for a WVGA device, but it has landscape.
Tachi is for a GSM/CDMA device without a forward camera, and is for VGA natively so it works on VGA devices. It has no native landscape mode though I believe it has been made to work in landscape with some of the Rhodium files.
Ah, okay, thanks a lot
Cool Thanks for the info
Is Tachi developed by HTC as well? or has it just been ported by cooks from somewhere else?
Developed by HTC and brand is dopod which is HTC's.
I think it has only released in Chinese.
Best Regard
Hi Sorry for perhaps a dumb question but I had one of these dialers on a previous rom which had a record conversation/call option which one of these has that option,sorry for being a noob

The Diamond is a VGA device. See here. I know, cos it was my 1st HTC device and I LOVED it!
Anyway, in answer to the OP, I don't think the clocks will work as Sense and TouchFlo are different things, so I reckon the Manila files would (probably) have different names. Other than that, they may be compatible.
I suggest you ask someone who makes clocks for Sense, like dragon_soft (for example), OP of this thread...

Well in that case, I still have to correct you
Most VGA software IS compatible with WVGA, especially theme changes. When I moved from a Touch Diamond to a Touch HD, I kept all the theme mods and just applied them. I'd say 95% of them worked. The only ones that wouldn't work were things that relied on the vertical resolution (in portrait). Obviously, the screen was still 480 pixels wide, just 160 pixels higher! So, if it was still TouchFlo and not Sense, the clock mods would work.
Anyway, I've said my piece
Thank you very much for your answers guys, you´ve enlarged my knowledge
I´ve opened up a request now, if there´s another soul that´s interested in this! (My interest is focused on the android clock).
