you can change the background to anything you like! just go to PointUIs
folder in Program Files and replace the bg.jpg with any background you like!
(thanks to Montecristoff) for sharing the hack)

Nice!
Nice, thanks. Although I notice that in my HD is not fully working, I'm not able to get to contacts and I can only see one soft-button at the bottom, while I remeber from use on my old tytnII there were 2. Also the access to call history iw WAY slow. However is super-fast, hope they will preserve this speed for 2.0, it seems a capacitive screen!

I believe this VGA version they released is an older version of pointui. thats why it misses some features.
Call log is indeed slow, but playing around with this only makes you more eager to V2 release
i just love this app!

great Montecristoff
and thanks for your share

Its fantastic. Too bad its so "buggy" right now on the HD. But yes, it does make you anxious for v2.

Is there a way that I can change the background in this program?

you can only change the homescreen background.. just replace the bg.jpg with one of your choice in program files/pointui

Thanks!

it's fantastic great work!!thanks

Am using this at the moment - it's great Will use until Home 2 is released I think, thanks!

wow... this is great!!
thanks so much for sharing

Tried it on X1 and it works! Really cool, although some of the background images aren't large enough. Can't wait for version 2 to come out.

Hi,
I have no idea what is this program for...
But the first screen looks like that is some quality 800x480 background. So this program can really use WVGA wallpapers ? It doesnt resize them like TF3D ?

can i use this on other panel? (not today panel)
thanks so much~!
p.s. use in X1

Works fine on my X1. With Today Panel as well as with TF3D Panel! Now a panel version (start PointUI, and on panel switch end it again) would be nice...
Used it now for nearly half a day and no real bugs found yet.
BTW: the PointUI site is down...since when? Is PointUI2 coming?

i hope the site is down because they are updating it with pointui v2... cant wait for this one.. its gonna be the bomb

the newest PointUI is almost out

http://www.pointui.com/development/final-stages-of-development-for-home-20/
We’ve frozen the feature set for the 2.0 release and have some serious testing underway. We’ll be announcing what you’ll get in the free and paid versions of Home and other information for those keen to get into some Applet scripting.

Cool, thanx, will wait for the 2.0 version. I hope they include custom sms interface too

Dock-N-Play Animated Today Background [Beta - 0.8 Beta Cab Available]

Beta Cab (0.8) available here: http://rapidshare.com/files/198951161/DNP_0_8_Beta.cab
All,
Dock-N-Play (DnP) is a "Craddleware" application that detects when your phone is craddled and on external power. If so it launches a "animated" today screen that provides a clock, email, current weather and appointments along with... wait for it... an animated background! This is one of those - "WOW that's neat... can I get that for my phone?" impress your co-workers applications. I have posted a few screen shots. My hope is a small community will help create animations to share with others. After the initial release in WVGA I will create a VGA version for others (likely not QVGA though - sorry)
The next release (after this one) will include some more options to:
- go full screen,
- assign quick-launch programs to front icons,
- change clock to completely transparent, semi transparent or fully non-transparent
A later release will add assignable quick launch icons to the middle of the screen for things like GPS navigation, Phone, Locking etc
Here are a few preview screens:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

Beta Cab available here: http://rapidshare.com/files/198951161/DNP_0_8_Beta.cab
Some known issues! {beta}
I believe this will only work on English ROMs... the next release will fix this. Setting location for weather requires "blind" typing or use of something like My Mobiler... also will be fixed. Please feel free to create your own animation skins but be forwarned that I will be making minor changes to the config.ini and txt files to accomodate needed internationalization changes. The next major release will include a PDF guide for creating skins but I'm guessing many will be able to just look and edit existing sample files. Also current CAb does not allow/display option to load to storage card... as soon as I figure out why I will fix this too
Please enjoy and know that fixes/enhancements will be forthcoming

Wow...very nice indeed.
One request, can this app have a lock feature?

Sounds Great, Hope It Goes Well, And Keep Us Updated

Incredibly nice idea, I'll definately test this out once you release the beta. Cheers!

try to make it run in fullscreen and take advantake of the hd's resolution.
thanks, and great project.

Great job...
Looks very good.. keep up the good work looking forward to test it

Can we have a youtube preview ? 'cause the picture previews doesn't really give us an idea of what it is like to have an animated background

I'm rebuilding my dev box with Windows 7 and watching the Superbowl... I'll put a video on my blog tomorrow and add a link to the first page.

Looks like a really great idea! Looking forward to testing it out, keep it up!

an Idea
abeery, what about an option to turn Touch HD into a picture frame ?
i.e full screen picture slideshow.
Good Luck to you and all Developers!

Some quick comments and answers
Added video to first link
Animations can be created by end users so picture frame possible
Full screen an option I will add but not use myself because I need full notication task bar icons for work

i love the idea!
what i would like to see in this app is a three mode function(or more).. for use in the car, home and office..
lets say i get in my car and i dock the phone on its holder, a screen will pop up with 3 big buttons that say "Car" "Home" "Office"
i click the button Car and the car menu shows in screen.. maybe it has a big clock a big "Call" button a Button to launch my GPS app etc..
when i receive a phone call in Car mode a screen should pop up with some nice buttons to answer or reject the call.. maybe a photo of the caller etc!
Now for the "Home" and "Office" modes what you already developed seem to fit
cheers!

I love this idea... Let me play with it and see what I can come up with... may end up being a version 1.5 release but I will do it.

UNmexed, fantastic ideas to add to an already fantastic idea. This is exaclty what I've been looking for, hopefully this will lead to us being able to use our WM devices as Windows Sideshow type desktop extensions........definitely going to be loading the beta~!

Brilliant work can't wait finally something to show off to the iphone boys.

Will we be able to get rid of the bottom "curtain" and make the clock smaller in order to see more of the background?

Maybe make the clock background transparent instead of white so that more of the beautiful animation background can be seen.

Beta Cab now available

Wow thanks will give it a try
Thanks a lot for your idea and work
I like a lot the idea of umexed +1

Point UI Home 2 Point Sense Suite

I hope everyone has been keeping up with the Point UI Home 2 development. These guys are coming up with some pretty creative stuff. The newest addition has been Point Sense Suite, a replication of the Point Sense UI found on the HTC Hero.
Have a look!

Thanks for posting this it looks great.

Compelling indeed.
Unfortunately the download is restricted.
I would like to test this app.
I didn't see any register information, any idea how we can access it? Legally of course!

Just download app and register with PointUI community to access all downloads. It's free to register, it's an online community... like XDA, sorta.

i saw the video but what realy turned me of was that you have to click the arros to move something???jeees..whats the use of a nice touch screen then..

Looks good but yeah youre right about the arrows thing

my god its realy different from the last point ui , it has much less bugs and i doesn't show conflict with spb3 panel (korean) you can adjust it any shape you like the new applets are perfectly designed its very smoth and doesn't have lag point sence and next gen add on are impressive the only bad things about it's costy and also like the previous point ui it needs to be out of panel modes to apply changes (themes , new software installed on it) oh by the way it takes about 10-12 sec for me to load it from the panels (with all the changes it was less than 6 but point sence add on theme makes it double) but for me it was worth it (sorry for my bad english )

nice wish someone can cook a rom with that interface woot woot!

Yes, I regretted purchasing the software ($20) but after this showed itself I began to feel a little bit more optimistic!

where can i download it? i just registered the pointui community but i cannot find any download link :|
EDIT: sorry i founded it out it's in the thread in this link -> http://community.pointui.com/topic/suiteto-come-pointsense-suite
EDIT AGAIN: now i have another problem i install the panel, the i install the point.sense.suite and the point.sense.home.screen cabs, i go into the panel, menu, customize, change theme and i select "pont sense" then i have a message wich tells me to close the panel and re-open it. after i do that the only thing i have is the default pointui home theme! what can i do? :S

Had the same problem!!
After you changed the theme, you'll have add the Pointui home applet..
you can do this by pressing the small icon next to the time and date in the upper right corner

thanx i got it
anyway has someone any kind of news on the release of the 2.0 version of this theme? thanks

How do you change the wallpaper?
I tried it via the normal SPB way and its just done half the page in a dark cloudy texture. Doesn't matter what image I choose, they all do the same

strange... it's ok on mine, try instaling this on fresh copy of SPB MS3

I was able to change the background once, but after that its stuck with that image. Never changes back, I am going to try to change the image, now I have as wallpaper, to the name of the one I want. Hope it works.
The player is not working also, I mean the image of the music is not showing.

Guys i installed the mortscript first followed by the other cab files but nothing happened. I dont see any new UI or any option anywhere to set it. Am i doing sumthg wrong or this does not work on Windows 6.5. I am using Touch it 12

restart phone or MS3 necessery

Ok so be honest before I go to all the trouble of registering, installing and playing to only be dissapointed:
1. Is it fast?
2. Does screen rotate work and how quick?
3. Any bugs / issues that are annoying?
4. is it worth it?
Thank you for your honest opinion on this cool looking homescreen.

Try it - you might like it!

I only tried v1 - downloaded v2 but haven't had time to test it yet.
1 = seemed OK to me.
2 = didn't try - it wasn't installed for long enough.
3 = I think I couldn't get back to 'normal' MS3 menus as the bottom buttons are replaced - most annoying bug was inability to exit MS3 but I tried the PointUI Sense theme at about the same time so it could've been that one. Also, having to uninstall and reinstall MS3 if you uninstall this is a minor inconvenience!
4 = worth a punt... I liked it enough to give v2 a try. The widgets are cool, its just a shame the developer hasn't done a widgets only version!
The only other thing I would say is its in French - weather, calendar, etc. text has French rather than English... but once again I'm only commenting on v1.

I really liked SENCE UI.
I always like to see the picture of the person who's calling me. In touchpro the Facebook intergration they have is pretty bad compared to SPB. The SENCE UI is almost perfect, the only thing its missing right now is the ability to show the Jacket of the music I am playing now. But apparently the guys are working on it.
For speed its really fast enough (even though it doesn't have the cool transition animations like Touchflow). I am Energy ROM Titanium version (without the manila) an dits running at its 49% CPu usage. When I had manila it was running at 47%. So its not much of a defference, plus I got all ability to customize it like android.
I am waiting for Manila 2.6 if it comes before SENCE UI v3. Then I will try it too .

MS3 beat out Touchflow anyday, even Leo. Installed V2 and have been working with it for a few days. It's fast and super customizable. I'm on Touch Extreme 10.1 final, so my phone is stable and fast. Give it a try, it's worth the install. Screen rotation isn't 100% but it's usable from the SBP home screens. But when you get into the actual MS3 ui it works great in landscape.

On this V2, is it possible to keep the old look of SPBMS 3.0 and just have the plugins? I didn't like the interface changes made by Sence UI.

Here they have Widgets ONLY!

[GAME] Teeter

Everyone loves Teeter right? I'm sure there'll be lots of shoddy ports for WP7 on launch, so I decided to do it right and first
Obviously, I'm pretty sure the name is trademarked, so will have to be changed before release...
Here's some screenshots of my progress so far :

Engine
(Cant post images or real links as I'm a new user )
I'm looking for designers to come up with a possible alternate style, to diferentiate from the original teeter slightly. Maybe themed worlds?
I'm open to ideas

I edited your post to add images
Nice work!

I wrote an article about this, which should give you some support for your app and maybe a few people who will be willing to help with designs...
Will come out at 3 pm EST today.

thats great news Guess that gives me more motivation to finish it then

And how about a real Metro UI skin? I guess it will look great!

A metro UI skin is a great idea, just not sure about how to pull it off well, will give it a try though

Make everything a blue block? I joke, of course Very nice work, looking forward to see how this comes along, as this is by far my favorite Windows Mobile game.

Nice job, OP! I wouldn't be surprised if HTC have already made a port, but this is still very cool.
My only comment is the 3D view looks a bit strange. There is no real depth, just the 2D Window rotating in 3D space. Look on youtube for "labyrinth 3D".
Keep up the great work!

I forgot to mention, that view is just for the emulator, as I cant really pick up my monitor and tilt it around
As soon as I get a real device to test on, I'll move everything over to the real G-Sensor, and lose the pseudo 3d kinda thing
ALLTHOUGH
I could easily make the 3D view better and have this as an alternate to using the G-Sensor, perhaps as an option from the menu? All input is helpful at this stage
Also, anyone who wants to follow my dev work, my twitter is @lordadamwalker.
Not much stuff about this project yet, but I only started yesterday morning, so It'll be there. Best way to keep updated

I would like a natural Port of the Game most.
Please add a Missionselector after one managed the final level.
If you make a Metro SKin please make it alternative, some people dont like it all the time.
Also I think Stability and low latenzity is more importent the difficult View, you should set your priorities according to that.

looking fwd to see how this game turns out...

A direct port is where I'm starting certainly, any extra features I can add when I finish the engine completely.
There will be a level selector for completed levels.
And there will definitely be a choice of skin to suit all tastes
Performance and reliability are my key focus, so rest assured the engine will be well tested and tuned

Not one to double post, but I now have access to a Windows Phone 7 device, so I should be able to make some real progress. Updates coming very soon

well?
Where is the port?

You might have better luck finding the OP on twitter. He hasn't logged into XDA since May last year.
