hope u like it

Looks good, I especially like the weather panel page!
EDIT: Just found that the square frame part which shows the weather icons in weatherpanel gets cut off from the top by the start bar. Its not the actual image because I checked it and its not cut off in the image file. I think you have to move it down in the layout...I would do it myself but I dont know how. So can you please correct this? I think you cant see it in the image you posted because you have a white background, and the part which gets cut off is the white part of the frame.

It's awesommmme !
Thanks for sharing this, u really did a great, great job !

THANKs

It's very TKSSSS~

I delete SPB MS2.1 since I see ur theme. I use it with UItweaker, to get black bars.
I just have little problems with ultimatelaunch gestures.

Yeah Great Job. I like it.
I have just one question. How to remove the systray bar?
Thanks

Very nicely done!
I like it! You did a very nice job, congrats!

Its Ok i figured tht out from ur UltimateLaunch.ini and im using Htc Audio manager today plugin in ur music tab ill attach it so u can give it a try And gr8 work man............

Music Tag work now
Just update on the first post, but still have many bug need to fix

instructions werent very clear on this stuff. most of my tabs are missing dll files (especially comm tab). my missed call count shows "xxx" instead of "0"
the music tab works but isnt showing my album art eventhough its showing in mortplayer....anyway to change this to use with audio manager?? mortplayer takes up too much ram
id love this in a black version like the htc diamond

I'm very interested in the music tab... Is it htc audio manager today plugin? this plugin doesn't show album arts (covers)... any explanation please?
like your job!

Slim Sized Font
Hi,
I'd like to know how you get the slim sized font in the systembars. Like the ''start'', ''contact'' font. On your screenshot it shows slim, but originally it show ''bold'' font. How did you do that? Any registry keys?
Thanks in forward

trick to show ablum art
sorry, i forgot to tell you how to get the cover
1. well organize your song (one album one folder)
2. then a cover photo put into the folder and name it to cover.jpg (file size no larger than 145x145)
that's all, click the play button (at the right side) and mortplayer is run, then return to today screen, if the screen not update, click the screen center
(this is a simply mortscript trick)
This music tag is a theme for XIAMultiTheme and not a plugin
actually a want to make it work for S2P (i can make it show up the cover photo) but can't remote S2P, if someone know how to make it work, pls let me know.

The apps that make it look like that are:
Phonealarm with a mod of Macguffin's DoNotTouch skin
found here http://www.pocketmax.net/smf/index.php?topic=4662.0
PS. There have been some changes in donottouch skin that are not published too.
The 2nd plugin is Pocketbreeze 5.3.0.6
have quite a few 3rd party plugins incorporated to pocketbreeze (weather panel, info reader, spb backup plus).
Unfortunately the mods that i did to get the feel is not published. So if you're interested i'll pass you the files, all i need is your email.
The 3rd is Batterystatus.
Of which have modified the xml to get this look and feel.
The top bar consists of:
mytools 1.5.1 - use this for battery uptime and connection uptime (when available). Have got some custom icons for the ok/close soft buttons.
indibar 2.7.0 - for the RAM and Battery meters, as well as the cascading start menu.
The bottom bar consists of Saman's WM5NewMenu.
i think that about covers it.

Hi Techscum,
I am really impressed to see your today screen but I am using Samsung I780. I read all your posts but can't make out which applications will be suitable for I780. Will it be possible for you to suggest some thing on that?

Aboinger, I am also interested in exploring Ultimate Launcher. Your Athena Ultimate Launcher Interface looks so nice. How did you do that? Can you explain step by step. Cos I also installed Ultimate Launcher, but Ultimate Launcher can only slide from right to left or vice versa, functions like the "easy shortcut". But Ultimate Launcher cannot move up and down.
Landscape is supported and works perfectly fine...
my ultimate launcher is also limited from side to side / fade animations
when you are in the tabs option and hit create new it should give you an option to add in plugins / shortcuts
what exactly did u need help with id be more than happy to help
Where download the ultimate launcher?
its an exe so its in a zip
dont know where the cab for the english version is ...
updated video to include ftouchsl / new UL interface

Better!...
I know this is a thread to demo the UL (which I just got put on two days ago....awesome software). But boinger, I notice that you have flames on your S2U2. One: where did you get that animated background for it? Second: your S2U2 looks as if it was designed for VGA....mine looks like a stretched QVGA screen. How can i get mine crisp like yours?
Thanks buddy. Nice layout..
BTW....I'm not sure what the version that was linked earlier in this thread....but I found the english version here!!!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=365334&highlight=Ultimate+Launcher&page=2
yes this one is the english version
and about S2U2 i changed the graphics for vga.. you can do that simply by editing the .png's
i just changed the clock files to be honest.
and in real vga mode the slider doesnt work. so i enabled dpad support cause the screen mapping is off.
i can send you the flames gif... i got it off another member and edited it for vga.
You said editing the png's. Does that mean you changed the icons themselves, or you adjusted the values of the png to fit VGA? Just a little confused on that. Or all together, did you edit the pngs in a software such as Adobe Photoshop? If that is the case I might have to ask are you willing to share....thats a little over my head.
Yes Please email me the flame background...[email protected]
I might go back to S2U2 because of this.
Thanks boinger....appreciated buddy!
the blue flames jpg is attached
and i wouldnt mind sending you the vga clock files but that should be in the clock pack already
boinger,
What sort of icon format does ultimatelaunch accept. Is it only ico? What about png format?
only ico
you can use 32bit xp icons though.. so they look just as nice... only dillema is you have to convert most icons from .png
i can upload my ico icon pack for you all if you like ?
how can i use icon(bottom) like you?
i like your style..
looks nice..
i tried but.. i cannot use it.
i do not know how i set the icon.
i like icon linked like iphone..
please, let me know how you set yr advantage.....
That would be awesome if you uploaded some of your icons boinger. I'm also trying to find some to share here as well.
I'm struggling a little with the "not activated" signs in the corner. I have registered this app, and entered the code twice. Soft-reset. After a couple of minutes and some navigation, they reappear.
I searched for some answers, and it seems there isnt a fixed from what I was able to find.
Anybody else having this annoyance!!
Thanks
here ya go
Thanks boinger. These are nice buddy!!!!
I think I have the wrong version of S2U2. I just took the WM5 version that I used for my x51v. I say this because, I cant use gif. as a wallpaper for it. I'm assuming that I might not have the most current version.
Lastly, I have been trying to incorporate your icons, but for some reason UL will not show them when I select them. I can only use the default icons that come with them.
Any ideas!!!
I don't seem to be able to enter text for the application icon, although I can see that the config icon has a description.
What is the trick to enter this text?
I'm also unable to choose tab icon. Does tab icon got to meet certain criteria for them to work?

set the icon size to 72 x 72 that should work..

Today Screen Launcher IDEA.. please develop..

hi. i first posted this idea on the PointUI forum.. so forgive me for the blasphemous screen.. anyway.. i jsut want to share this idea for those developers, willing to create a scrolling today screen launcher..
click thumbnail for the animated demo..
the idea is, to create a launcher that is customizable (custom icons - TGA or PNG for transparency), scrollable, and FUN.. hehe..
anyway.. it's a simple horizontal swipe and scroll.. but the added feature of the - what i call - default pane..
the default pane should be a set of five shortcut icons (user configurable) that can be easily accessed from anywhere in the horizontal list.. how? double tap the space above the icons..
for example, you have a 16 icon horizontal list, if you are in the end of the list, and you have to go back to your default pane, just double tap the space above the icons, and the list will scroll back to your default pane..
also, there should be an option for memory or default..
the memory option remembers the last position of your launcher and remains where it is even after you launched a program or switched to another window..
the default view scrolls the list back to the default pane after launching a program or every time the today screen becomes active..
this idea could not just be a today screen plugin.. it can also be a launcher that can be called via screen gesture (FtouchSL/FtouchFLO).. the difference with this launcher, is if implemented, would just be an over-window rather than a full screen launcher.. it may also be a task switcher.. depends on the developers choice..
here's a quick demo..
[/i]click on the thumbnail for the animated demo..[/i]
once again, this is just an IDEA.... for someone else with the programming prowess..
i'm just good with photoshop and ideas. but binaries and hexadecimals kill me..
Good idea..i hope some one develops it...u can try Throttle launcher
Where did you find the picture?
Have you done it by yourself?
look into ultimatlaunch also... very similar to what you are wanting
with customize icons and wallpaper... wold be good.. and a feeds infos too on the clock and events apperance
the upper part of the picture/animation is the PointUI Home interface.. no credit for me with that..
the bottom part however is mostly my creation.. (the icons used were modified from bundled stardock icons for windowsXp)
i created the bottom part and the application launcher ribbon as an idea suggestion for the developers of PointUI..
a bit inspired by the leaked wm7 pix and the iphone springboard hacks they created over at cre.ations.net
i don't really like PointUI that much (YET, but i'm getting there), so i also suggest the idea as a native Today Screen plugin.. and an all around launcher.. a minimalist approach, compared to the touchFLO cube and it's encarnations..
i don't like ultimate launcher that much.. i'm not into Tabbed launchers.. too much space consumed..
throttle launcher looks cluttered at the moment.. too much things are rendered on screen at the same time.. it takes up much time loading and, again, screen real estate.. i'm still eyeing for its future improvements though.. especially if it will be able to get customized, as in, to be able to select the features that will be loaded, and will not..
it's not likely that all people want to see a big clock, a bunch of contact pictures, all of the shortcuts, and running programs cramped in their screen at the same time..
Would be awesome...good idea buddy.

they have a single line launcher now, it the same thing you ar requesting. I'm also keeping an eye on them i think the single line can be a nice addon to every rom. (but it has to be easy customiseble)
If you combine Ultimate Launcher with some clever today screen plugins, especially with rltoday, you can do at least the first part with customization only.
if only the creator wants to make pointui for VGA sigh..
That concept has been done here
i tried v2r and though it was not that good....this idea is awesome though i would love to see it developed
I like the concept.... I'll try to achieve something similar with my app (ThrottleLauncher) and report back with what can be done . Some questions:
Any way of getting the art work used on your screen shots?
What are the left and right arrows on the clock for?
Thanks for that cool concept!

This is what I've so far. I know the look is not the same but without the background's it's the closer I can make it for the today plugin. For the "poping up" app, the same theme can be used without the clocks on throttle main app. A little modification on the app will be needed to show the prevous window as background.

The today plugin ribbon is really eassy to achieve with my app ;-). I've made a simple theme for you. Just uncompress the zip file into your instalation dir of ThrottleLauncher (see my signature).
After that, go to ThrottleConfig app (it must be on your programs menu) and set plugin height to 38 (or higher if you customize the icons to be bigger), then sellect Ribbon on the combo box and click "Set Today's" button. Then on the actions menu (left softkey) select Edit AppDB, add as much app's as you wish (needed fields are title, name and exec, only select an icon if you wan't to override the default of the app). Select the app's you want to be on the Used list. After all that add throttletoday plugin to your today screen.
If you wan't to make some playing with the setup you can take a look at this tutorials
http://www.throttlelauncher.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=8
You can for example eassily set the ribbon to be 2 rowed, add a clock, add contact photodial ribbon, etc etc .
edit: removed atachment as it contained an error. Look some post's below for the correct one..

Sorry... my fault... there was an error on the zip. Setup xml must be inside a folder called Ribbon on the setups folder and not directly inside it. Here you have an update of the simple ribbon setup and the one of the screenshots above (this last will require a little work still but I upload it so you can test it ).

icons on themes, dialer skin.

I have tried to search and find what to do to install a theme that has icons, and cannot figure it out. Do I need some program that everyone is using? Also on dialer skins how are those installed?
Do skins kill battery life or use alot of system resources?
Thanks
What theme? If its HTC home, you install the .cab file from the phone or sync the phone to pc and double click .exe.
If its a .tsk file, Put the file in the windows directory of the phone then go to today screen and select from there.
Skins dont use a lot of system resources UNLESS they are actively doing something( S2U2 for example if you install a moving gif as your wallpaper) as they are just being used instead of the originals.. Cheers...
yea, u need to be a wee bit more clear as to what you want, you're probably new and dont know the right terms, so maybe if you posted some pics we could understand a bit better what u are trying to achieve.
this is the style im looking for http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=51534&d=1190401691 with the big clock and some icons below. I think that I will need a plug in to show the icons. I installed a tsk theme but it only changed the color of the top and bottom bars, but did not show the large clock or icons like that one. I saved it to the memory card, not within a folder and I was able to browse find and install it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Sorry Im New
thanks,
Nicholas
that big clock is the htc home plugin, which you can download all over this forum, or at www.pocketemu.com which incidentally also has another program called htc home customizer, which would be the easiest way to customize the home icons. It may not have that exact theme you are looking for, so the best way to get that theme is to ask the person who posted that screenshot

Ditto. Welcome to the addiction...I'm lucky to keep the same clock and icons for more than a week...

Looking for : Finger Sliding Today screen single line program launcher

There are many All encompassing apps that totally take over your today screen. I like to pick and choose little apps.
One I'm missing is a sliding program launcher. One that allows me to pick the programs that are on it.
I've seen Launcher
http://handheld.softpedia.com/get/System-Utilities/Enhancements/Launcher-35563.shtml
This is close....but I'd like to have touchFlo "grab and toss" functionality.
OH....I should mention I'm running Touch Pro....so VGA is required....(cLaunch didn't work)
Thanks in advance
dont kno if this will work with touchflow but sounds like what you want... its a grate today plugin, you can add any file on your device and Every file on your device if you choose, its called elecont launcher.. you can pick one line or many:
http://software.pocketnow.com/productMobile.asp?id=20029
its Not freeware but you can try it for free, and after your trial is up you can continue to use it free, edit it etc all free.. you just get a promt to buy everytime you click an app, jus click ( no ) lol its my main
plugin, and tha first app to reinstall after hardsets lol tha dailer is just as good if not better...
*same concept*
Yeah....that's basically what I wanted....was hoping for free....but I like the app...thanks
Why don't you use ThrottleLauncher? . It can take as much today screen as you want . If you wanna give it a try I can make a theme that just contain a single row of program icons... (It can even scroll horizontally).
Edit: done . To install just install ThrottleLaucher (see my signature). No need to install any theme, just the ThrottleLauncher cab. Then create a setups file inside the ThrottleLauncher folder and unzip the file inside that folder.
The structure will be:
ProgramFiles\ThrottleLauncher\Setups\LauncherRow
Select that theme in ThrottleConfig and you should be ready to go .
Here you have a video of how it's working and a screencapture also...
How about vga?
icons are very tiny. Is there a way to increase their size?

It's using the standar icons from the system, so their size is 32x32 (or 64x64 in VGA)... You can though change the icons asociated to the applications by using the ThrottleConfig 3rd tab and then the icons will "grow" .
but in config, "today" only 2 tabs appear: "info" and General
General only asks how many rows I want
This belongs in Questions and Answers again.. but anyways you should try using SPB Pocket Plus or Ultimate Launch.
