Anyway to have HTC Start Menu with TF3D OFF? - Touch Diamond2, Pure Themes and Apps

I really like the new start menu but I'd love to be able to access it when I have TF3D unticked. Any ideas on wether this is possible or is it too much a part of TF3D to separate out?
Thanks

I would like some of the other touchflow stuff like the contacts as well. But like you i dont want to use TF3D.

I do not think this is possible.
The start-menu is an sort of tab of TouchFlo, which needs TouchFlo to be launched.
What you could try is TouchFlo Detacher (use search function), it allows you to switch between the default windows mobile Today screen and touchflo, in this case TouchFlo is running (if you hide it instead of closing, option of TFdetacher)
Just an idea, not sure if it works, but you can give it a try..

I have the Attach one installation and work like a charm.

I don't know whether this solves your problem. I installed AT0mAng & Danny_and_2 TF3D2 Tweak app. And i used Start Menu Off option and it worked for me.

Wow, there it is what i was searching for such a long time.

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?

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.

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?

radio version 1.02.25.19 and protocol version 52.33.25.17U
can anyone please help me to find it...
There are no settings available on the device for TF3D however there are tweeks available on this forum. However, i still can't find a way to make the calender part show future appointments / next appointments a week in advance.
Other programs in Today screen with TouchFlo3D?
I would love to have my old Pocketweather back on the today screen.
I also want my tasks and Agile Messenger status back on this screen.
I have the idea that it's impossible.
Now I use my old today screen without the TouchFlo3D . But now I cannot use that nice people option etc.
Do I have to wait for a tweak from sombeody of you, or am I doing something wrong?

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?

Move Start Menu Apps to end

Hi,
Is there a way to move the applications in the Start Menu to the bottom..
There's already an option saying "Move to top" when we select and hold any application in the start menu.
It will be better if it have the following options when we select an application.
"Move to top"
"Move to end"
or is there any other option where i can set the order of the icons showed in the start menu.
Thanks.
run Miri 6.5.3 vet 1.4 and you can pick up and move your icons around wherever you want...

Hi, I would like to keep the ROM I'm using currently and still get this "Move to end" option. Any other suggestions? Maybe tweeking the registry?
Thanks in advance.
tweaking the registry can be done, however its messy.
I tried program called jw something but it was not that usefull.
I will be in an answer too
The one that control this is gwes.exe. Dont know (prob not) if it works to take the gwes from a newer winmo build.

Have you tried JWMDIconChanger_v2.6b? With tool you can just sort your startmenu entries as you want with a simple list-tool. It's really comfortable! Try it.

Yeah JWMDIconChanger is the best to rearrange your apps/icons in the Start Menu,
after sorting it out it just need a soft reset.
Shame on me. I have the latest version of Icon changer and I didn't know that. I'll try right away. Thank you all for the feedback.

Sense 2.5 program picker as start menu?

Hi!
I don't like the default WM 6.5 "honeycomb" start menu. Would it be possible in some way to use the Sense 2.5 program picker (the one used for adding programs to the quick launch list in manila 2.5) as a program launcher? And ideally even bind it to the windows hardware button?
Regards,
PK
sorry, don't know how to do that (although it would be nice)
however -- quickmenu is a useful alternative -- and it can be assigned to the hardware "win" key...

I'm doing this exact program mate. It will need to be run in conjunction with Co0kie's Home Tab v1.7+ though, and that's not released yet.
It'll be out within the next couple of weeks though, unless anything changes.
The only thing it won't do is bind to the windows button, but you could just put it as a quicklink on your home tab instead.

Nice! I hope its the one with the "matrix" layout.
But why isn't it possible to bind it to the w-button. Is it a design decision? Or is it a implementation contraint?

Hi!
Have you tried it? I did, and it did not seem to work properly. Only slowed down everything. I tried installing on the latest x-treme ROM (6.5.x). Both the windows soft button and tha hardware button stopped working after install.
@johncmolyneux: I hope you continue to develop your app.

Heh - okay. I'll bear it in mind for when the next release of Co0kie's Home Tab comes out.
