How would you change where the buttons on the touchflo cube point? Would it be possible to point the contacts icon on the cube to PocketCM instead of WM contacts.
Also, it would be nice to be able to keep the cube open behind the application you launch, so that when you exit, it goes back to the cube.
Sorry if this has been answered already, but i couldnt see it anywhere!
Thanks in advance,
Ben.
it has indeed been answered in another thread.
But especially for you: you can modify the Buttons via Biotouch in your Programs.. The Cube can't be held open. I guess it would eat a lot of Memory anyways..
Thankyou very much for you reply!
However, I dont see anywhere in "BioTouch Settings" that lets you define the contacts button that you get below the 9 quick dial pictures. Is this possible?
Thanks,
Ben
oh, this one you can't change afaik. The contacts page on the cube seems to be the program itselfes and if you click to the contacts symbol it changes the view to the contacts program.
read tom's first post of his B&B4 thread. he added a big list of how to change stuff. one of the entries reads:
"Want Set Pocket CM to default contacts ?? ----> HERE<------"
click it, read it, be happy
I'm sorry if this has been discussed elsewhere (And yes I did look), but is there a way to set the touch keyboard to default to the "Touch Keyboard" where each character has its own button? On some screens it appears like that, but on others the "QU", "ER", etc share a key. It's really frustrating.
Thanks in advance!!!!!
try this cab

This is the cab to keep the 40 key "password" you will lose T9 and word prediction ..... do a registry backup.......this cab despite what ever it says WILL uninstall... the registry backup is just in case it can't be uninstalled. I pesonally have uninstalled and reinstalled many times without hard reset...Hope this helps

I didn't make it but codyppc did so give him kudos if you catch him out in cyberworld
This is for the touch keyboard on the touch

Another option
I like what timdawgdentist recommended because I did not know that there was the option available. However, I find the password keyboard a bit difficult to use myself, so I installed PCMKeyboard.

That PCMKeybord is really great. It's taking a while to get used to, but I certainly like it much more than any of the others that I've tried. Thanks!!!!!!!
I personally LOVE TouchPal keyboard, I was a fan with 1.0 and now with 2.0 it is that much better, Twice as better and easier to use. I use SIPChange to make that my default Keyboard. You should try it. You can type so freaking fast with it.

I have hard time text messaging with the native texting program that comes with the HTC Touch (Sprint/Vogue). I can't get the keyboard to disappear so that I can press the send bottom on the bottom of the page.
I like the SPB Fullscreen Keyboard with the black47 theme and PCM Keyboard with iPhone skins.
I tried TouchPal, Touch Keyboard and Keypad.
I prefer the touch keyboard from the least 3 i like.
but I mainly use the Fullscreen now but usually wind up switching around to the PCM. Sometimes predictive is good, sometimes I need to be precise
I'm looking for a good program to close applications properly from the Today menu. Any good CAB files out there? Using Touch 4.01 Vanilla
Hbutton / Ok-Close assignment? working great
Try HTC Task Manager. Make sure u set the option to close program on tapping "X".
but....with hbutton you can assign to the ok button. for me it's more convenient this way, isn't it ?
uh,you're from belfast....i'm fancy to travel to belfast for a long time....

I was wondering if there had been a thread dedicated towards various keyboards or not.. so I thought I would start one. I've read a few things spread out about keyboards but nothing dedicated.
on that note: is someone who is capable of creating a keyboard, much like the iphone style (keys spaced out, not cramped together for people with fat fingers [like myself] and fewer buttons) be willing make one for all of us to benefit...?
thanks!
I have had the PCM keyboard (v0.14) installed, but it messed up the default HTC keyboard. Still don't know how or why that happened.
Turned out I liked the HTC better, so deleted all other keyboards I had
Still waiting for a Swype-like keyboard to try.
Grtz,
Thijs
you could try the resco keyboard. It is great... apart from it having no comma and period on the first page, making it still very slow to work with for me.
that swype looks great
i like the Yota keyboard, looks ideal for people with sausage hands like me
I'll have to give those a try, it seems there are too many buttons on the reg qwerty pad.
next question, how do I change it?

Yep, but that Yota keyboard hasn't been extracted yet.

Try the Shapewriter...works on same technology of swype...although i didnt like it personally...numpad was too cramped...but u might like it since u mentioned swype...swype does look appealing
right now am using SPB and Resco pretty good but sometimes when you tap a letter it doesnt appear.. its like it has a delay or something! but i do wish someone makes sometimes that works good!
PCMK kills them all. Without a doubt.
Tene is also adding gesture support in the next version here, and you can add cursor buttons (left right up down) as in HTC keyboard for navi. Easily the best, I have tried I think just about all sips.
Fully skinnable and you can also change the layout to just how you want. Would highly recommend it.

I found it a bit slow and the autocomplete shows only one option. plus the feedback didn't appear instantly as it should.

How recently have you tried it?
.23 has none of those issues...
Swype seems cool, does anybody have any idea on when the public version will come out? It seems like you can have them contact you when the beta version comes out...

Hi, I also found that you really have to press the screen hard for the feedback to work, you can still press the letter and it appears on the screen but no feedback unless pressed hard??
Also no full stop on the front page??
I am using the latest version which i think is .23??
As coming from an iPhone i really like this keyboard so hope the bugs are ironed out

Hi folks,
I'm looking for an programm launcher like the programs tab in TF3D, but I'd like to have multiple pages, as the 24 places in the tab are way to few.
Else I want to assign it to an hardware key, so I need an application, that is not integrated in TF3D.
Does anyone know a good app for this purpose ?
I guess someone already made something like that, but google and the forum search didn't bring it up.
Sounds like a job for Wisbar Advanced Desktop, I have 8 tabs on the main screen, 20 more fading in with one finger gesture, or configure a mainscreen tab to directly open a launcher page with 20 tabs per page, where tabs can also be a Inbox, URL or shortcut to opening a program with a given file. Then switch between unlimited launcher pages with one finger gesture per page.
^^ can you please tell me what part of wishbar advance i have to activate to make my screen look like that??
Look at MortScript and Mort Buttons You can add the buttons to start menu, Today screen or to the TF3D Programs page. each button has a full page or even multi-pages you can add apps, commands or scripts to. Really handy!

Its not Wisbar Advance (Task), but Wisbar Advance Desktop
http://www.lakeridgesoftware.com/products/pocketpc/WisBarAdvanceDesktop/
Then you need to install Sergej's free Blackberry Theme to the themes folder of WAD, and activate it as your default portrait mode theme.

that looks really nice ... but how does is look in landscape mode? does it support landscape? if yes, i'll give it a try
Dont use landscape, but the program differentiates between those two modes, so you could just re-arrange the dock and tabs to fit your landscape preferences. For me the key feature was to be able to show unlimited appointments on my main screen.
already tried yota center?
Me I use UltimateLaunch that I looove with Yota

hi Lucas,
the first image you attached is your today screen? we can set wisbar advanced dekstop as our today screen?
Yes indeed, but as a today screen where you have full control of what to put on it!

how to set the WAD as today screen? by disable the TF3D only?
last time i did try WAD, but, i didn't set it as today screen, i need to launch it as other program to get WAD work.
so, everytime you soft reset or wake up your HD, you will see WAD in your today screen?
Just disabled TF3D, started WAD installation, and WAD came up as today screen automatically. Yes, WAD is full today screen, but you can choose if you want to keep the Start and taskbar on the top of the screen, or have it disappear. Most standard Today plugins work from inside the WAD today screen, too.

thanks a lot Lucas, i will try.
Thanks for the ideas.
I'm already using Yota Center and its a nice program.
The only thing is that I'd like to have more pages, cause 24 places is too few.
I'll try Mort Buttons, looks interesting though.
have you tried launchmanager ? it's not free though ...

Thanks just one more question. When launching the Music player or Photo Viewer etc, are they the normal HTC ones or are they customized now?
Are they still easy to use?
Also does all your programs work normally? And if you don't like the WAD, you can easily delete it?

No, they will not be the HTC apps embedded in TF3D. You will set up each icon to open up your own apps. I haven't heard of anyone being able to use the HTC player or album yet as stand alone apps.
Yes they are very easy to use!
WAD will not affect the way your programs run. It is simply a launcher program (one of the best that I've seen yet).
Yes, you can easily uninstall WAD by going to remove programs and uninstalling it from there...although I have a feeling you won't want to after you get the feel for what it can do to your today screen!
Thanks that was a great explanation
just one more question for example do you mean it won't have a built mp3 player or something like that but you have to download a 3rd party one and assign it?
EDIT: I just bought it and installed the Blueberry theme but doesn't show up properly, i wonder why. I'm missing the clock, the calender and whenever i press the box on the right side, a empty grey box opens.. weird.
EDIT: Fixed it up by selecting Wishbar Desktop rather than HD BlueBerry, weird. some parts are still German even after applying eng buttons.

You can set it up to use Windows Media player if you want to, otherwise a third party app is what you will need. CorePlayer or PocketPlayer are a couple to check out.
I haven't installed the Blackberry theme for WAD yet but I do no if you don't have the icons installed in the correct places the theme will not show properly. I ran into this same problem when installing Mallmans Vista theme. As soon as I went back and followed his instructions perfectly, the theme was correctly displayed.
I'm not familiar with setting up different languages so I'm afraid I won't be of any help to you there. You may check out the Lakeridge WAD forum for that.
Here is how I have my WAD looking right now, a tweaked version of Mallmans Vista theme!
