a cube, but integrated into today? does it exist? - Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General

As the title says, I'm looking for an app that rotates 'virtual desktops', in fact today screens that I could put a plugin on top.
Ie; page1 = HTC Home
page2 = SPB Diary
etc...
I was looking into ultimate launcher, but it doesn't quite fit; only half of the screen is working, and spb diary is a no go on it.

if you have qvga in settings > display check fixed plug in height and use 292 pixels.

thank you boss, that fixed one of my troubles.

UltimatLaunch is the only software/launcher than can rotate smooth like the cube can.
There is software out by vj (i think) that you can hide also the softkeys and taskbar.

Ultimatelaunch is exactly what you are looking for.
Check out iStyle for some ideas.

Thank you, guys. I actually managed to workaround the SPB Diary problem; only have to drag *under* the plugin. setting the fixed height in ultimate launcher to 292 gave me a bad and ugly scroll bar, setted it up to 267 pixels and it's ok.

292 works if you use dciNobar to hide the bottom bar.

Thanks HostileJava, works nickel.

UltimateLaunch is the best.
Here are all 5 sides of my cube.... 5 sides...guess it's not a cube then..
I am running the messaging plugin, Cal+ plugin, Weather Panel, and SPB Pocket Plus all within Ultimate Launcher.

Can you post the bottom icons please. Also how did you achieve the black background at the bottom icons.
Thanks

The Icons and the tabs are made by me, The grey tabs are modified Icons from a pocketcm iphone theme i found here.

I will post the iphone tabs in the evening again here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=378260
Or scotbotmosh could you post them here, im at work

Yup 267 pixels is exactly what i discovers when you have the bottom bar too. I have a 6 sided today screen cube lmao!
1) HTC Home plus home dialer and 4 buttons
2) Calendar+
3) Task+
4) SPB Insight
5) SPB Weather
6) Phone Off & System Meters.
Works perfecrtly!

Pocket Breeze can also switch tabs by finger gestures.

bubu your theme looks quite good. Could you introduce what it is and used with?
hi guys - what screengrab software are you using?
in my today i have:
wisbar advance 2.6.0.8 (beta) with vista portable skin
phone alarm 1.60 (beta) with my custom skin
weatherpanel 2.5 (also beta) with a modification of weatherbox skin...
note that wp in a tab of pocket breeze (without the upper command line...)
and for taking that screen i'v used the option in handymenu 3.6 (dinarsoft)
ok?
...........
here's mine...
wisbar advance 2 - vista theme
rlcalendar
ilauncher
psshutxp - vista skin
i'd quite like to get rid of the bottom bar on today screen but does it still give you the ability to open the keyboard when required if you do this?
Requesting HTC TyTN original Theme please
btw: is the ftp down???
Bubu thats a nice vistaesque phone alarm skin you've made, do you plan to release it?
Also, how are you navigating your pocketbreeze setup, doesnt appear as if there are any on-screen buttons to change tabs, or are you doing it entirely via hardware keys
Cheers.
i switch pages only via hardware pad... i've configured the pad to works only with pb, and then with right o left pad buttons i switch the pages...
the top bar is hidden by default...
my pa skin is under developpement, but here http://www.pocketmax.net/smf/index.php?topic=2614.0 there is bax2002 starting layout...

Main theme is Wisbar Advanced 2 with a vista theme.
The bt/mail/sms bar is phoneAlarm with a modification of the Media Phone theme.
The main window is Pocket Breeze, not sure of the theme.
Weather addin is Weatherpanel with another theme I can't find.
Can you guess I've tried to reproduce the look myself?
bubu, is there any chance of a copy of that phoneAlarm theme *please*? Media phone doesn't cut it for me and yours looks just about right.

very Nice and simple , what today plugins are u using,
This is mine at 192 dpi mode.
The meter bar is from pBar. This is also used for application switching, comm manager,and limited application launching.
The time and date comes from registry edit, and appears on all application, so that I need not come back to today screen to see the date and time.
The little circle with rotation mark is the dictionary lookup, and appears on internet explorer or word,where I may need help with the definition of any word.
I need to watch my data quota, so this status must be visible. Same for key stock investment.
The main application launcher is iLauncher.
Screen rotation is done with hardware button, so that I can still do it when browsing the net in full screen.

Yes, I agree, WA3 beta 4 works well with my Dopod U1000. Athena's top specs should have no problem with it.
WM6 combined with WA3 is just like upgrading Windows XP to Windows Vista.

Anyone know how to center the wallpaper image, instead of it tiling? (If you look at the wallpaper, you will see that it repeats the top on the bottom strip!)
And thanks for MyMobiler link!

Today Screen Enhancements?!?!

Post your today screens! Let's see how much everyone has managed to mod theirs!
..........................
I personally don't like a super-busy today screen, as I use my device in the car, and I need it to be easily accessible. I have therefore created a theme which uses Wisbar Advance + WA Desktop. I personally love it, but who wouldn't if they created it themselves?
Anyways, take a look at the theme here:
{
"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_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
and you can download it here:
[Theme] VistaMobile VGA with Extras released!
i thought these two programs, Wisbar Advance + WA Desktop, were huge memory hogs.
what program r u using zeeshansohail.
I'm using:
- SPB Diary v2.5.6
- SPB Mobile Shell v1.5
- SPB Phone Suite v1.1
- SPB Pocket Plus v4.00
- SPB Time 2.1.5
- SPB Weather v1.7.0

It isn't wisbar, I only use these applications :
1. Vijay's Toggle today (so the today bars dissappears)
2. CESTART (an application that makes the Start bar go down to the bottom)
3. SBSH iLauncher (To get the icons)
That's it! Then it should look like my today screen on the picture.

If you've tested one that works well, please post it here.
The only one I found that works on xperia is ultimate wm7 for spb shell 2.1.

My preference is still working with a stylus. Since I'm having a lot of tools installed, for me its easier working this way in order

And I'm getting nervous considering that Windows Phone 7 does not support styluses anymore.

Nothing wrong with that my friend, I often use the stylus for speed, most day to day things I use my fingers though.
As for wp7, love the looks, hate the sound of it, basically its the phone equivalent of Vista; beautiful looks, dubious functionality.

Hi! Sorry for my english...
Thx for this amazing theme!
But, i have some problems. First, when i unlocked my phone, and then appear the flip clock, he shows the time before 1 hour and 2 minutes. Ok, this is for animate the flip clock, but he shows me approximetly 2-3 seconds the time before 1h,2m. Is there any way to abbreviate this delay time? It's enoght 1 second to view what's the time. Now, I am always in a mistake about the time.
The second observation is the programs tab. I like the original programs tab with three icons in one line. It's possible to set like original?

I use the built in red theme, since it's finger friendly in menus, with a specific wallpaper file ripped from another theme, and the today text set to black using sktools.
I also use Opera Mini for browsing - the Java based v5 final, since the native version is so buggy, and JZ Smartmort to make it the default browser.
Wrong forum. Sorry bout that. Thought I was in HD2
