Touch2 MyMobiler skin - Touch2 Themes and Apps

Dear all,
Thanks for all the useful tips over the past few years, I've finally done something worth giving back to the community.
I noticed the HD2 and diamond skins but there wasn't a skin available the correct resolution for my QVGA Touch2... So I decided to make one using the existing skins as examples. The process was pretty straightforward and took me about an hour playing around to get it right.
I know that there will be some issues so let me tell you what I already know before you come back to me to tell me.
Anti-aliasing is a bit rough around the edges, it looks best on white backgrounds. At any zoom level other than 100% it does not go transparent and you have a white edge (which looks a bit ugly). According to other similar threads this is due to a bug with MM not the skin itself.
Also if you switch the skin into landscape it goes wrong. I am hoping that somebody may have some ideas as to how to get MM to rotate the skin, or be able to set a landscape skin up. I could not find any examples of this.
Also I don't think the start button works, although the button is mapped out.
Enjoy, let me know if you have any ideas about rotating it. I don't have much time to adjust but thought other people may well want the same as I did, so here you are. Feel free to improve on it.

Edit: Attaching screenshots

Hei, can you post screenshots, i dont understand whats that...

That is the point! But there was not a skin for My Mobile which makes it look like the Touch2 until now. Those screen shots are actually displaying my phones screen, not an emulator or static screenshot.
Have a look at this site: fuzemobility.com/mymobiler-skins-for-htc-hd2-tp2-and-more/ and you should catch on.

Ok, thought that the screen was "automatically" displayed by mymobiler.....
And since I use direct mobile device connection, never had the need for mymobiler .....
Will give it a try.....thanks for clarification!

very nice, but many users asked me to remove the bump logo , so i need without the bump logo .
thanks for helping man
Here's my contribution. If you have another specific idea please feel free to post and I will try something different. Just and FYI for anyone who ever wonders what font Microsoft uses it's Franklin Gothic...

What do you think of this one?
Sysgod, i like it... but my opinion isnt much =\ Lots 0 gold... pretty pimpy.

this is the best till now
create something for Welcome picture too
but, try to make the text aligned to the left (so keep blank on the right) because the size 320*320 is used to be suitable for landscape too, so we have to make the text not to the center, try to make it on the top and left little bit.
did you understand me, or show you an example??
Ok, I have 2 relatively stupid questions. The first is what exactly is a bump logo? And the second is how does Sysgod get his images to load in the post like that? Is that done using the insert image button? I would try it out to see, but I don't have an account anywhere to upload it to an HTTP source.
Ok here is a Welcome Screen image that I edited, shifted to the left. Is this what you were talking about?
xeno1, you have to have someplace to upload them. If you don't have access to a site then use a free service like imageshack or something similar and just post the link to the image with the image icon in the reply menu.

yes, but also needs to be shifted to the top, and think again about the text size.
i suggest to move the windows logo down and the text to the top, imagine that the device is moving from portrait to landscape and the opposite . so i hope it will be suitable, if you want to get more clear, look at welcomehead.96.png in your windows directory (in case it is on 320*320 size)
thanks for the good work
Ok, I think I understand what your talking about. How's this?

Chome Weather 2.0

FYI, CHome Weather 2.0 works on the VOX. Please follow the link to see the original thread in the Excalibur forum.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=396068
And click here to download the files needed for the Vox.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2250095&postcount=43
Hello...just downloaded this version of CHome Weather and it looks amazing...great job. There's only one problem, probably related to the 240x320 cpr file because, like I already read in the excalibur forum, there's an issue in 240x320 where the background looks a little odd and doesn't fit the area like it supposed to. But again amazing job...keep it up
EDIT: I've just used a version of the 240 x 320 cpr file already used in another version of your plugin and it works great now
I was just now testing the other layouts and there are some issues:
- I realized that everytime i change the layout, it doesn't matter the cpr 240x320 file i did put there because when the layout is changed the cpr file is kind of replaced by the one corresponding to the sellected layout.
- In the HTC and Iphone layout, it shows always an icon with a cross below the icon of the current weather, instead of showing the icon corresponding to the weather.
- In regular layout, the gold and silver backgrounds don't work well in 320 x 240.
- In the regular layout, in the 1 and 3 layouts, I can't see the hi and low temperature.
Yeah, you'll have problems with the portrait layouts.
Is it possible to fix the problem with portrait?? That is the last thing, that keeps me from donating.
I am so happy with this program. I worked as Organic M's test subject to get this working. I can't say I notice the problem you guys are talking about in regards to portrait mode.
This is what I see:
have the author, removed the files from the location... I am unable to get those...
Can someone help plzzzzzzz!!!!!!!
Thanks

There are 2 links in the main post at the top of this thread.

Davis,
From your post, it looks like that screen is in ladscape mode. Portrait is taller than wider, yours looks wider than it is taller.
Thanks a lot.. I found the same at the post. I was just eager to get Weather update on my VOX...So got carried away...
Thanks

Well if you put it that way, you'll definitely NOT get me to fix the portrait layouts. How about.. "here's a small donation and small request... I would really appreciate it if you could work on the portrait layouts(which is a major PITA) so this works properly on my phone".
Well then I Only wanted to know if it is possible to do it. But I can live without it. I can look outside to see the weather. You know I made a lot of stuff for the Vox...but I never received ANY donation!!!
works beatifull. got no issues with any layout (i'm using plain black background). excellent job!
the only question i have is if it is possible to manually edit order of appearance on home screen somehow as i could do it in standard homescreens in _home.xml file?

This is definitely NOT what I wanted to happen here. I worked with Organic M to get this app to work with our phone models and he was nice enough to help us out.
This is far from the thanks that he deserves, since the app is designed for an entirely different model.
Why so serious? can't we all just... get along?

I think the Chome Configurator will allow you to change the order of Slides on your Home Screen.

???
As I said I only wanted to know if it is posible nothing more. And I just wanted to clarify that people here are not thankful! I really do apreciate his work. And the work of all the other coders and cookers! I hope you understand my point!
Does this plugin use necessarily the whole width of the screen, or is it possible to customize its size or layout (present conditions, 2-days forecasts, 5-days forecasts...)?
At present I'm using Fizz Weather with Orange plugin on my Wings, in order to show an analoug clock and weather forecasts next to it (see here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=89987&d=1212446950); will it be possible to make the same thing with Chome Weather?
So... is anyone still interested in making this work better with the Vox ? Maybe ask some of your ROM cookers to look at the policies in the registry and ask them remove the restricts that don't allow cab files to copy files to the \windows directory ? Then I wouldn't have to make two separate .cab files when I released a new version That, and if anybody wants to help test the portrait layouts, we can make this happen.
Yes it would be great to see the weather plugin fully working on the Vox...that thing about the restrictions I never understood that because after checking myself the registry many times, I saw that the restrictions were disabled and the thing about installing files in the windows folder still remains a problem...

[Q] Changing TF3D landscape shortcuts

First off I want to thank everyone here at XDA for all the hard work and effort you put into tweaking these great devices.
Now, on to my question, I've searched here and the diamond forum and I can't find any mention of a way to change the shortcut buttons on the landscape TF3D screen. I would really like to be able to customize that screen with shortcuts to applications I actually use. There must be a way to do this, has anyone got an idea?
First post , please go easy on my noobness.
Searchipoos......
Post #9 on first page, bottom ish of second page for a bit extra
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=426328&page=2
Thanks Ouza but I saw that post and it's not what I'm looking for. This only deals with changing the two softkeys at the bottom of the landscape screen (which is nice in itself).
I'm wanting to change the 6 big shortcut ''buttons'' above that.
Basically I'd like to make the landscape screen the same idea as the programs tab in TF3D or something like it.
Any ideas... anyone??
I would seriously like to change the big shortcuts as well.I have a dock in my car using the video out. Video out forces Landscape mode. When I hop in my car, I dont want to take notes or check tasks, I want GPS, internet radio, Live Search...
I will dig deep into the registry and let you know what I find.
I want the same thing !!
Video out in the car, so I want to be able to start my Navigation from the landscape-menu.
Jochen
Change Landscape Menu
For the TV out menu that pops on screen after you plug in the video out cable, you can change the shortcuts in the registry.
HKLM\Software\HTC\TVOutPopUp\
There are four links in there, you can change them to any app installed on your phone. Only problem im having is changing the icons.
I have to bump this thread. There must be a customizer out there for the lanscape shortcuts! I just may go back to HTC Home if there is no way to put shortcuts in landscape!
I doubt this is exactly what you're looking for, but herg62123 is working on adding landscape tf3d to his project. See http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=447056
Not quite,
I have my TP docked in landscape in the car and I would like to open apps like NAV, or Picture Dial, or Kinoma Play in landscape.

I don't think there is going to be any easy way to customize those shortcuts. I'm pretty sure the landscape shortcuts are hard-coded in one of the binary manila files.
That sucks!
Well I guess HTC Home will do for now.
You could change the softkeys to point to two of the apps you want to run. Not the perfect solution but it's better than nothing...
I guess....
Maybe I can use 2nd today and set a button to it with AEbutton and have HTC HOME for landscape and TF3D for portrait.
Thoughts?

Sounds like a good solution. I haven't used either product but from what I've read on here that should work. good luck!
Glad to see this topic getting some attention finally
For anyone interested, try out this theme with a slimmed down version of tf3d in landscape. It may suit what you're wanting more.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=458036&highlight=landscape
Frankly, though, I didn't like it, and preferred to go back to my old theme. My main goal was having a landscape screen with a handful of a few apps I'm most likely to use, but in this theme you still have to scroll through your entire list of apps installed so, it really wasn't any kind of shortcut.
I'll keep sorting through all the manila files for a solution. Anyone with any reference docs or anything on creating themes or customizing tf3d would help as I've never dealt with it until now.

I've been searching around and noticed that indeed themes do change the "landschape shortcuts" but there doesn't seem to be a "general" program that's able to change them. I'm a little confused, because some reactions state it isn't possible to change these "shortcuts", saying they are hardcoded. Does this mean they're rooted so deep in the code that it's very hard to change them? Anyway I keep following this thread and hopefully some come up with a solution... Keep it up!

GIF Animation as wallpaper in TouchFLO

Hey guys, has anyone successfully used a .gif file as a background in the TouchFLO? I can set it as the background on my Fuze, but it isn't animated. It just stays at the start.
anyone? is this even possible?
Not without some piece of software to handle the transitions, no.
but yet regular unsmart phones can do it

thats what I dont understand? ive been searching and waiting for something to support GIF for either TF3D, today screen, WAD, SPB, and I think its funny it can be done with S2U but nothing else :-( hopefully someday it will happen. I think it would make our backgrounds that much more awesome
yeah i definitely agree... i figured as much about using third party software but that would probably only be for the windows today screen and not for touchflo. ill do some searching and see what i can find, im pretty hell bent on figuring this out.
Re:
I actually have a piece of software to support this, and I currently use it on my today screen. PM me for details and ill send it to you.

hi,ive pm you ,thanks
All of the solutions seem to be today plugins. They work but not with TF3D since you cannot set them as backgrounds. The most impressive I've seen is this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=340222
If you turn off TF3D you can get an airplane flying in the background - pretty neat. Anyone have the ability to convert this into a background for all or some TF3D tabs?

[APP][29/11/09] l3v5y Multitouch Paint

In the same style as the Stantum resistive multitouch screen demos, I've made a multitouch paint application.
There's a video here.
You can use one finger on the "slider" to select the colour, and the other to draw with, or just draw with one or both fingers. Double tap to clear the screen, and press and hold to exit.
Let me know what you think!
You need to soft reset before this will work properly.
For those of you with single touch screens, it'll work, but with only one finger at a time...
Developers, check out this.
video is not working?
Maybe there : http://wmpoweruser.com/?p=10863
Youtube just taking a while to process....
This looks amazing L3v5y well done that man!
All I need now is the HD2 to play with.

Did you soft reset? (should have mentioned that in the first post...)
Looks good indeed Some suggestions:
1. Tap and hold under the color bar to get a magnifier glas to se the color you selected.
2. If you swipe the screen slowly the drawing becomes choppy.. Dont know why but you might want to look in to it
3. Select other sizes for the brush..
Good work!
Bravooooooooo! Thank you!

1) Sounds like a nice idea, will think how best to do that.
2) That's because I'm drawing a line between the previous point and the current point. When you move less far, the line is shorter than it is wide, and much more prone to that. Will work on getting it less choppy.
3) That sounds like it could be useful, will think how to do that...
I'm also thinking it might be useful to save images, and "retract" the colour selector so you can use the whole screen.

Will add a soft reset function to the cab.
l3v5y,
looks amazing.. multitouch! who would have thought..
Just curious.. do you have plans to take this further? I am very much into painting and one of the main reason for buying HD2.. but haven't quite found a suitable painting app.. think the closest is the Dynaink.. but the colour palette don't show all colours. (same with your colour window as well..)
would be great if you can adjust the size of brushes and maybe just a smaller tab to bring out the colour window perhaps?
keep up the awesome work mate.
cheers

That sounds nice Another thing. Maybe have the possability to have "layers", so you can go back and add some, and then go back again.. Diffrent tools like spray etc..
Congratulations...
Now, we can say that HD2 is really a MultiTouch...
Cool! Nice app.
Nice one mate. Can you explain to why I have been led to believe multitouch was only going to for HTC's own apps, and not for public development?
Edit: I must be an idiot since everyone else got it to work (I did soft reset) but it crashes on me if I try multitouch, or it gives me single touch...
Edit2: And like magic it started to work all of a sudden.... I think your app is making fun of me....
I soft reset and it didnt seem to work still, was taking me back to the home screen, but then it worked, great work l3v5y
Although on mine it still seems to crash frequently but only when having two fingers when one is on the colour part and swiping, seems hit an miss, anyone else have this?
