[REQ] Manilla Tab Messenger (ICQ, MSN, and so on) for TF3D - HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps

Hey guys,
like i already mentioned in "Windows Mobile Development and Hacking" Forum (link) im looking for a manilla instant messenger as a tab in TF3D. I really like this idea and i hope someone can develop it
The idea is shown in a 5min picture (well it just shows my idea, it shouldnt be used as theme ):
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I also post it here because i actually want it in a HD2 Edition
::: EDIT :::
-There would be many ways to realise this idea. It could be one tab for all protocols (multi messenger) or it could be one tab a protocol like one icq tab, one msn tab ... so everyone can install just the one he wants.
-A history would be usefull to see what you were talking about with the last person
-file transfer support
-open weblinks
-copy paste
-click on a contact and the screen in the tab slides to a conversation mode
if you have ideas just post them and i add it to the list. maybe it helps someone who wants to program it

That's a fantastic idea mate. I'd love to have MSN on a Manila tab. I'm gonna bookmark this thread, but I'm not gonna hold my breath

very nice idea !!! hope someone is able to develope it. there is actually a manila tv cab, which is adding a new tab to tf3d.
i would pay some money for a prog like this.
sry for my english

wanna have icq! <3
would love it!

-avatars/userpics
-button for userinformations
-custom statustxt
-contacts statustxt on the bottom of the nickname
-including facebook, meinvz, studivz, schuelervz, skype
-sliding in conversationmode like icq for iphone (search youtube)
-customizable notificaton sounds/vibration
-smileys
-led indication/cameraflashlight(!!!) indication for new msg
-take a picture and send it to your contacts
-quickchange between open conversations in conversationmode
just some ideas

Icq would be very great =)

so would be gtalk and ymessenger

it will be very usefull on my hd2

Would love MSN here!

it would be lovely!

Skype would be awesome, too!

not possible?

A great idea, i hope some will try to do it !!

This would be great, BUT, i don't think it is possible to create such a big messenger in pure LUA
I don't know if Manila can load dlls, IF not this would be impossible ...
I maybe also wrong ;D lets hope I am

Want a brand new Magician ? PointUI refreshes it !!!

All is in the title...
Try to install the WM 2003 alpha version 1.02b of PointUI Home.
And you will see the difference !
For all frenchies, a french version is avalaible here (cab all in-one, simplified installation !).
some screenshots?
look in this thread:
http://forums.pointui.com/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=707
The screenshots above are some ideas for new features to the program. I installed this program; it is simple and nice User Interface. Very well done and the best thing is that is totally made for WM2003. My Magician is another phone now. Some minor bugs that I consider acceptable for an Alpha release. I think it is worth to try. Things that I like: Lock when turn on device, "Touch like" navigation, Turn on Bluetooth just when the Phone Rings and Off automatically when you hang up, nice call history list. Things to be improved: New Dial Pad Skin, Messages and Contacts List like the call history list, On the Running Applications; it could give you the option to Stop them. Just waiting for new releases with improvements for this nice work.
See your love on it !
Good evening magician guys,
just some (little) news about .ui...
How to change the PointUI Home Background ?
>>> WARNING : IT ONLY WORKS WITH WM2003 OR VGA 1.02b ALPHA RELEASES !!! <<<
Thanks to tweakradje to give us this trick
1. Choose any picture (jpg file) you want to put on .ui Home background
2. Rename this file bg.jpg
3. Copy this file in the Home folder (by default) : \Program Files\PointUI\Home\1.02b\
4. Stop and re-start PointUI Home
5. Enjoy !
Just show you my magician revival !

Hi guys,
I've made some work to adapt the WM2003 Slither's SCLPC++ cube for PointUI
This is the WM2003 version (SCLPC++ 0.4) => only for WM2003 users !
Avalaible in Blue...
Or in Black...
You can download it in this thread
Enjoy !
MonteCristoffOn how did you get touchFlo to work on wm2003se?
Regards
Hi madsurfer,
You don't need TouchFlo on your device to use this cube.
To launch it quickly, I'm using a hardware button which point to the link Cube SCLPC++.
Wow..just gave my Jam a new life. Very impressive!
Yeah with this tool my "little old pda" kicks real ass! Great work - I'm looking forward to getting a beta/final release but I'm completly fine with this one, too!
Greetz, Mike.
Couldn't you make a cab for other languages too, i looked in the PointUI forum for german, but that was only there for version 1.5

Windows Mobile/PPC Shell's

Hi,
Been doing some research on Windows Mobile/PPC shells.
So far I have tried the following.
1.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

HTC Home with SPB Mobile shell HOME icons only. (only way i know how to get icons on my home screen was via spb..)
I mainly use this right now.
2.
I tried out ThrottleLauncher's TouchFlo3D
IT IS OKAY, not bad actaully. Still some issues. But not bad at all.
3.
Winterface, wow i really love this.
My major issue is, it has no today plug-in so I always find myself back at the windows today screen all the time.
Other lame issue is their SMS app and contact app and photo app, they could have integrated those standalone apps way better into a single product.
Overall vito's app suite looks promising.
Anyhow,
My question is what other mobile shells are there? Is there anything out there close to winterface but better? I really like it. Overall anymore finger friendly things? Post/link me to other apps. Please give me thoughts.... and ideas...
For iPhone interface look-a-like, iFonz.

Today Life is very good & finger friendly, developing fast.

and then there is spb mobile shell, which isn`t free + lots and lots of others.
thanks
Thank you for the suggestions.
I already use SPB Mobile. Paid for it and vito suite.
Anyhow keep suggestions/apps coming. Hopefully down road someone else will find this thread useful.
Any others?

WOW, that is not bad

Not a bad thread, nice to have all the various options laid out.
As you have HTC's Home plugin for the Today screen included, you may also want to add Pocket Digital Clock (just a nice, lightweight clock) in combination with your launcher of choice such as UltimateLaunch or MortButtons.
yepp
That is the idea of this tread so one day some newbie can look at the work i already did for them. Also hoping others will contribute.

sorry repeated post
Im talking about shells not specfic app so much but thanks for the suggestion.
Becomes kind of blurred as most of the apps that are or are going to be listed are typically just a clock with an app launcher.
I was going to start a thread... regarding
"windows mobile finger friendly apps'
starting a list of applications like this...
but i found a website http://www.touch-innovation.com/
It does not list free ones... so anyone want to add on apps to this list free or paid? besides ones on the site.

Best PIM or organizer or calendar

I'm searching for a certain PIM. Now I'm using Agendus Profesional editio. It's a great one but it's working too slow and it's going on my nerves! If you know what to do to make it work faster, please tell me (but I doubt if anyone knows this )
Well there is only one condition which a PIM must have, a week block view with the possibility to display different appointment categories in different colors or with different icons. Here is a picture what does it look like in Agendus Pro
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Well the Outlook Calender on WM 6.0 has this great week view but it doesn't have the feature to mark different categories. I would be really happy If anybody would have or know a hack or knows what to do about it. I know the registry hack to display names of appointments in the block but it doesn't come in handy.
I've tried out:
- Pocket informant 8 - it has the week block view but it sux!
- Agenda One
- Agenda Fusion
- SBSH Calendar Touch 2
- SBSH PocketBreeze
- Spb Diary
(The last two are actually today plugins, but can be used also as PIM)
Thanks for your help folks
Still no suggestions?
Oh I see. xda developers is another forum where no support is given on a tiny bit complex questions. All this cream de la cream developers of software for mobile units here on xda and no answer, how pityful for such a well known site. They are breaking up HTC's and Cooking ROM's, do lot's of great stuff, but no one tried to write something for this damn outlook calendar to display categories in colors! No rather then that they are always playing with this TouchFlo crap and so on...
Oh well. Thanks =P
It may well be that there is nothing else to work the way you want and instead of a series of "Sorry don't know" ,people are staying quiet. I was one.
Personally i use ThumbCal, doesn't do colours but does do diary stuff well and is finger friendly.
1 and a half year in this forum and 5 posts.... Whats YOUR contribution to the site buddy? May be you could have tried what you are looking for and shared it with us?
Think before judging....
Just a suggestion, no offence intended
Thank you deedee, but unfortunately I've already tried this out. It's really a great PIM or better to say calendar, but I really miss the week view :aww:

Alphabet in music library

Hello,
I'm wondering if this would be possible..
In the people tab you have this nice alphabet at the side of the screen:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Why is there not such a search think in the music tab / library?
If someone can make this for me / us.. I will donate
Now when i want a song that start with the Z in need to scroll all the way down.. and that takes too long
I also send HTC a email about this
Nobody?
Yeah i agree, this would be very useful. Going through the tracklist at the moment is a pain.
Anyone have any ideas ?
I have a response from HTC in Dutch
They said it would maybe get solved in WM6.5
And the guy said he has send the request to the developers of HTC.
I send him a email back with the message WM6.5 won't solve it because it's a problem in TF3D.
And now i'm waiting for a response back
ill also donate a little bit. if it works.

Nice
Too bad i don't know how this stuff works.. so i can't give it a try
But if there are any developers who would like to help us.. We will donate
I would also like to see this implemented!
i have lots of MP3 on my Topaz, in TF3D it takes about 10-15 seconds until it shows up (I guess because of the album pictures).
If I want to browse through the tracks it takes a lot of time to get to the Letter where I want to go.
This would be great!
I'm having the problem too that it's shows up really late..
And i asked HTC if they could make a .cab file for it..
They only sad they had send it again to the developers
So probably no cab file but maybe in the new manila versions
I hope they can do it
EDIT: I've send a email back and waiting for a response at the moment
This feature would be awesome. It should be standard in every list in TF3D.
New response from HTC...
They don't know sure it there is coming a cab file or it will be build in the new roms...
They only know that the guy has send a request to the developers..
So maybe a developer here can make a cab file for us?
