Finger Menu - Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking

Hey people,
I thought i've seen a tool to use the finger to scroll through the menü some time ago.
Does anybody know a tool like that.
IÄm tired about using the scrollbar on the right side to go through the menu

Ok
So that one is included on the ROM, depending on your device look for a ROM that includes "Finger-friendly"
On my ROM I have that included
If your device is non HTC build you wont find it on the forum
Good luck,

FTouchSL you need ?
google for it.

Some few questions.. PocketCM and Buttons

Hey there!
Iam doing my prophet more finger freindly but i have some few questions i would like to get some help about..
I use PocketCM.. But all my contacts are stored on the sim card, so i can't see them in the program.. Is there a way to get to app to show my sim contacts?
And then i have another problem.. To get my prophet to work more finger freindly i need to get most of the buttons bigger, but how can i do that? Like the buttons in the start menu can i do those bigger?
Thank you !

What is "Cube"

As a relative Newbie to PDA customisation - in a number of Threads deatling cooked ROMs a number are offered with or without "Cube".
What is "Cube" and whatis the difference between ROM's with and without "Cube"?
btw - I recently down loaded the O2 Premium v2 w/o cube for my Orbit, no issues installing and working well, one or two minor issues, but easily overcome with a tweak of settings
Best way is to show it! See the cube?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4HNP1lgbR98
hi all,
can someone please explain how you get the 'cube' to work?
I am running ARTEMIS TOUCH 3.01 WWE - FULL WITH CUBE and everything works OK except I cant see the cube even tho i have it enabled in the TouchFLO applet under system settings.
Thanks and excuse my ignorance... i'm kinda new at this updating ROM's stuff.
-Axel
Problem solved thanks. Found a pictorial explanation on one of tom_codon's posts... thanks tom.

I’ve been looking through this forum for two days now and still can’t find a definitive answer to this question…
Is there any way you can modify the ‘Cube’ touchflow application so that it is a ‘proper’ cube with 4 sides ( i didn’t know you could have a cube with only 5 surfaces!! but i digress ) and add shortcuts on the new 'forth' side to launch your chosen applications?
Please can someone give a definitive answer thanks
can you point me in the direction of getting the cube to work - I'm where you were.....searched for tom's post can't locate it???

A 'Proper Cube' has 6 sides
Im a new too and cant seem to get the cube thing working...its probably really obvious. Anyone know what the button name is for the cube so I can assign it?

[CAB]/[OEM][New Manila Mods]All Programs Tab 4icons[V3.3][UPDATED]

LANDSCAPE WORKING
original method taken from Showaco
Ive spent quite a bit of time working on this now so i feel i can receive some credit for all of this work
Start Menu All Programs 4 iCONS (not working on programs page)
-[CAB]
v3.2
V3.3 - ONLY FOR LATEST MANILA 2.1.x
--------
-[OEM] -(copy file into manila directory in your kitchen)
V3.2
Does this only change the "All Programs" page or does it bring back the old style
start menu and bring back the programs tab?
Would it be possible to just create a cab that changes the "All Programs" section
to the 4 icons view instead of that massive long list that exists as of this moment.
i think the start menu need to be spaced out a bit more if anyones intrested ill keep updating
it should do both, thats what ive been trying to achieve if u want just the all programs to be boxes i should be able to do that for you
The "Start Menu" just looks too close and squashed and is it me or is it padded
to much from the left.
The "All Programs" screen looks fine though.
So would it be possible to only have "All Programs" and not the "Start Menu" mate?
Edit:
Just read your post, could you do that for me please. I like the new Start Menu Rhodium has and I prefer 3 applications per
row but definetely want to change the "All Programs" bit.
Navigating through a list is just too long. I don't understand what HTC were thinking LOL
yea it is , same thing i thought but it is a working example ill do you the all programs only now should be easy enough

Hi,
nice work. It looks nice.
Does it work on a original (Dutch) HD ROM? I cannot copy the manila file in my Windows folder: the folder is protected or the program is running.
Thanx. L.

with this pack the sfotkey don't work.
The two soft-buttons on the bottom do not change from whatever was shown previously.
I use italian rom on my touch HD
now the buttons on the start screen are not working anymore
i saved the original mannila file and everything back to the normal.

Would u please make another choice for us? I want to choose folder first, just like the old start program with other folders...
thanks!!!!!!!!
there was a few issues with the 2 soft keys at the bottom of the screen not always changing or not showing the right options, i tried the file and come across the issue so i made a few changes, i think for the better

Remap 'home' button to 'start'

Along the bottom of the phone there's a home button and an endcall which, within programmes, seem to do the same thing - take you back to the today screen. Or, in my case the 6.5 CHome thingy. And the back button in most apps takes you to the home screen too - so that's three buttons largely doing the same thing most of the time.
The new phones with 6.5 preinstalled will have a windows-flag start menu button, I assume this will open up the new hexagony start menu.
Is there a way of remapping the home button so it launches the start menu instead?
That is EXACTLY what I have been thinking for the last days. Pressing Home-key should naturally bring up the start-menu.
Nice idea, even because reaching the top left corner with your right thumb(maybe for left handed it's easier ) while holding the HD with the right hand is a little bit tricky
I'd like something small to do this but I have a feeling most people will return with the suggestion "use aebplus to remap"
I have the same feeling wiggz, There must be a registry key or something that can be changed and put into cab format? Anyone got any ideas?
Me to
So, we are many!!
I too have been looking for a way to do this for ages.
I too will be watching this thread with interest and hope.

No aeblus cannot map the home button as it's hard coded into manila!

so as the home button is coded into manila it mean's one has to play with the manila files and remap to start menu all that would mean is to change some scripts!!
bottomline Home button in theory can be mapped to the start menu!! so it's plausible!!!
i'm going to watch this thread as well --- i've been looking for this since I got hold of my HD. I've already remapped the "back" button to S2U2 via AEB since you are correct, essentially the home, back, and end buttons all work very similarly.
Hoping that someone posts a solution to this!
i have the solution...install this program and you can change all the hard keys to do almost any function...i have mine set up to do the exact same thing that you want it to do!!
cheers!!

Thanks,but could give more informations to remap keys,please ? The list is empty when i launch the application ...
Same here. I was so happy when I found this thread..
When I tried installing that, it did not work... Maybe it was my ROM.
There are REG keys that remap home in certain cituations, i.e. manilla but I have yet to find a way to get the reg key to do anything else.
The new keypad.dll maps it to a normal vk_lwin, so you can remap it as you like.
Unfortunately I have not yet seen it an any ROM.

It is for Diamond and the author says here post 10 "For the touch HD, maybe you should download HTCAPI.DLL somewhere, put it in /Windows and try again". Haven't read the whole thread though so not sure if this is what the problem is.
i know its a little confusing to get it started...so heres what you do...install cab, go to program files\dredsensor and click on dredsensor.exe and a config.ini will appear...now close out whatever app you are using to view files...and open dredsensor...now you will see default under name...tap default and then click menu, then edit...change type to launcher...then go to click and tap the gray box next to the home key...go to events and chose Misc:Start, hit select, hit ok to comfirm, change whatever others you want to...then hit save, then hit ok to confirm...then hit exit...then you should be good to go...hope this helps!!

Is theire any methode to customize the HD mini?

Hey ... i would ask you if their is any kind of methode to customize the HD mini.
I mean the Clock or the Pictures in the Slider
When it is posible can you pls tell me how ?
(sry for my bad english)
Here... this tool is not made by me but it´s from xda-developers and i cant find the thread any more... have fun...
You will have to try out different settings... but you can´t destroy anything...
Go to "config" and try the touch flo version you might have
it´s not a skin... it´s a skin making program
When you go to you have to tick the boxes "include portrait" and/or "include landscape". Then press convert (this may need some time) finally press "create .cab" again
cheers, stephan1
wow very nice ... i'll try it soon
