HTC Touch - TouchFlo 2D Internet - Touch CDMA General

I installed TouchFlo 2D on my HTC Touch (WM 6.1 / Telus, Canada), and it's a great leap from what WM provides!! I cannot however, access the Internet, Browser, Bookmarks, or YouTube from the associated Internet page TouchFlo 2D provides.
Is there a way to get them working through TouchFlo? I tried uninstalling TouchFlo thinking reinstalling it might help, but that crashed my syncing ability. I had to softboot my phone, and the computer as well several times before they started communicating again.
Additionally, should there not be a solution for getting the Internet functionality working, is there a way to successfully remove TouchFlo 2D ?? I'd possibly like to try something else if I keep having problems.
Can anyone help ??
Thanks,
Karen VK

Did you install Opera, as well as the YouTube app? The links will not work without the supporting applications. You can also try installing M2D Customizer to set the internet widget to use Internet Explorer instead of Opera if you don't want to install it.

Thanks for your response, and sorry I didn't respond sooner (!!) My system had a melt-down so I de-installed TouchFlo, re-formatted my computer, got a new cell .. I'm just getting back to trying to play with it. I'm hoping with your simple response I'll be up and running in no time.
It was frustrating though, that I tried to post my query over a month before it went in, but couldn't start a thread, and the help team wasn't able to resolve anything. Thanks soooo much for being there !!

OK .. I finally started trying to get back to this yesterday (after my computer and cell both crashed) but I'm still having no luck with TouchFlo 2D. I re-formatted my HTC Touch 3050 (Telus, WM 6.1) for the 3rd time this morning, and I'll be re-installing all programs now.
I previously said TouchFlo 2D is great, but it's been frustrating. I cannot use the Internet through the associated tab -- even though I installed Opera as suggested. Now I also cannot access Google Maps, though it is installed, and worked prior to my whole system crashing, and; my phot album won't come up. Oddly though, YouTube worked yesterday (didn't before) before re-formatting this morning.
Is there anything else I need to install to get this working ??
How do I either get Opera to work, or access the internet through Internet Explorer which is already installed?
How do I get Google Maps to work?
How do I get the photo albums to appear?
Thanks very much
Karen

Honestly the best way to get it running is to flash with a rom that has it included. It makes TF2D much faster than just installing the apps anyways. Plus that way it all works and usually the rom also included the tf2d configuration app as well.

Thanks for your help. My HTC Touch crashed again, so it looks like I'll be replacing it. Not sure what I'll be getting, but I may be jumping up to the HTC Diamond (with TouchFlo 3D built in).

installing htc touch-tody plugin slows down my system - how to fix?

hey,
i installed the today-plugin from the htc touch. after recognizing that the speed slowed down i uninstalled the plugin (sadly). after the uninstallation my system is still slow like hell - even after soft-reset. i think the plugin changed something in the registry.
is anyone having the same problem? is there a way to solve the problem without hard-reset?
I solved this problem by reinstalling the hole system
Its a common problem with the HTC Home plug-in. Unless the plug-in is built directly into the rom (B&B v3.7 for example) then it will always slow the device down. Even uninstalling doesn't fix it as it leaves some registry entries or something which slows the device down. AS the previous poster has said, hard resetting the device will fix this but its not ideal. If you do want this plug-in then the best way is to download a rom that has it 'cooked' in.
same problem here.
everything in my device was working super fast, until i installed the today-pluging from the htc touch. it slowed down to 50% or less!!
even uninstall didnt solve the problem, had to hard-reset too...
Any fixes?
Read the kaiser home plugin thread in the hermes mobile 6 forum - it has a Cab that installs the files into \htc rather than window - this seems to stop the slowdown. Better though is to use a rom with it cooked in. Sorry no link as i am on my device.

The differences between the 2 TF3D cabs and other things !!

I had the first TF3D cab installed on 10/31 on my Xperia till 3 days ago. i then did a hard reset and installed the new cab posted by itje.
the differences are quite remarkable: at least 50% faster than the first one, much more stable and dose'nt slow down after a while, all panels are working including audio, albums and youtube.
the only thing that i noticed, still no support to certain bluetooth functions, also your bluetooth connection drops if you had the WiFi on bug.
it integrates nicely with my BMW 650 I-Drive and i get all my phone book " more than 300 contacts" up in less than one minute.
I also noted that installing Dashwire slows the Xperia greatly.
and finally installing the above cab did not mess window media player and i can still see my videos.
All the Best !
Did you use the panel install for either one of those? Im asking because I dont know if itje cab is compatible with the panel install, the first one by daran works great with the panel installed.
I used the Panel install on both cabs.

I did the same thing. First the TF3D of Daran. Then a hard reset. Then Manilla HD from itje. Installs fine and is quite responsive.
However: Album is really not working. Nor does YouTube.
This was done on a Dutch VF machine.
Really hope for improvements in the future.

Thanks for clearing this!
What about the language? I got a german X1, will this mess up my whole device?
interesting. It looks like the standalone youtube cab and the manila cab (that packs youtube as well) are different then. I installed the standalone youtube cab and it screw up the video playback.

heyyy after installing the cab....im unable to see this manilla hd thingy......after goin to settings>today>items i cant see any hd plugin either....wat could possibly be wrong???
im using the default WM panel..
Well, there's a beta 2 for Daran's cab and beta 3 will supposedly be out next week, whereas for itje's there hasn't been any new updates. Since your installation of Daran's cab was on 10/31, could it be that you're using beta 1? The results of your comparison might be different if you did a comparison using beta 3.
latest version of touch flo 3d for xperia
Hi,
Can ne 1 give me the download link for latest version of touch flo 3d for xperia..
I've installed the itje cab & it works fine but there are some issues:
1- youtube works when i installed it separatley i can log in & browse but i can't play any video same with my opera
2-music player in the tf3d doesn't work at all
other than that the cab works fine

MAJOR bug driving me mad..

My phone has been running fine for months, yet now all of a sudden whenever I try to launch an office mobile app, be it word, excel or powerpoint I see the title bar at the top of the screen, the main screen freezes on touchflo though - the device remains unresponsive (unless I tap start and goto today again) and the software hangs. It seriously takes a good 4 mins or so to start any office mobile app.
Now a few weeks before, Tomtom was doing the same thing - I simply put that down to it being a GPS app.
So has anyone expeienced this? Can anyone offer any help? I REALLY do not want to hard reset.
Did you installed the hotfix from HTC already, or tried a cooked rom?

I have installed the HTC hotfix and I have the original ROM running.
Its not so much the system freezes, its just any office mobile app takes forever to launch..

But as it was running quite well a while ago, it is a software issue at all. So I would suggest to perform a hard reset (or flash a cooked rom).
I actually fixed this,so will let you know the solution for future use..you will be surprised.
What was causing the major hanging was the fact that on Resco Explorer, in options, I had enabled the device to expose the NETWORK folder to other apps (as I have mapped several network drives through Resco), so on disabling this option, office mobile works just fine now and launches instantly! as does Tomtom now too!

How does your X1 crash/hang up on you?

Okay, im just curious about this. I've read all over the net (and this forum also) that your X1 is bound to crash one way or another. Sometimes i read that people can have 2 or more crash everyday, which i think is quite strange.
My X1 fortunately never crash up on me. I surf the net, use wifi, listen to music, use the GPS via Garmin, chat on yahoo messenger and even watch a full length movie on it. Fortunately it just never crash on me. Not on a normal use anyway...
Speaking of which, i've tested my X1 also, to see until which point it might actually crash. I surf the net + Activate garmin + chat on yahoo + listen to music + occassional sms in between, and the phone is still doing fine.
It does get pretty laggy at times, but the point is it's still very usable.
here is all the apps that i've installed on my X1 (as in remove program thing):
Astraware bejeweled 2
Astraware Sudoku
Xperia Tweak
Garmin Mobile XT
Google Maps
HTC enlarge start menu
J.S Advanced config
Slick
.Net CF3.5
All the panels
the only bug that i have in my phone is the one where i cant add the speed dial. But this doesnt concern me because i just dont use speed dial anyway.
So im just curious, how does your X1 (if ever) crash up on you?
Oh and one more thing, im still using the R1A original ROM.
mine crashes whenever it sneaks out in the middle of the night and steals a car.
doesn't seem to have got the hang of cornering yet...
I have not updated to the latest ROM.
My X1 crashes when I leave it untouched for a period of time. The battery will be hot and no matter what button I press the screen just won't light up.
I'm trying to update to the latest official ROM now but I have no idea how to use the SEUS thing. -_-'
My R1A crashed about once to twice a day.
What I had installed is pretty much what you had plus TF3D HD as panel from itje, PlumSIP (Chinese input), SKTOOLS, SPB Shell.
It got a bit better when I switched to Daran's TF3D but that had problem of itself. And I started using SKtool's memory reclaim in the back.
Now I'm on R2A and its virtually crash free. I've yet to try TF3D as I'm waiting for a solid TF3D 2 solution as cab.
So al fingers are pointing to TF3D at the moment. Shame because besides being the best eye candy, I've also found it to be the most useful including SPB Shell
im on r2a. mine doesnt crash but hangs occasionally.
ironically its everytime when im showing it off to my frens. sometimes the screen just hangs.
wanted to show a video to my fren today when out of nowhere the video and all other videos cant be played. had to soft reset..

the million dolar question is, do you have TF3D installed on ur phone?
TBH, i'd love to get TF3D installed on my phone, but for some reason i just bound to know that it's gonna cause me problem anyway
Can we safely say that the crash free ROM is actually the official ROM now?
Or maybe someone else use cooked up ROM but still actually run the X1 crash free? leave your experience here...

Random Apps Closing?

Is it me or does the T-mobile Dash 3g randomly closes out of apps. I was in my Internet explorer and it juss closed out. It also does this when i recieve messages. Is it my setting or something because i cant uderstand whats doing this.
Mine too
I have the T Mobile Dash 3g unlocked with win 6.5, same thing started happening today...all apps closing after abiyt 10 seconds. Looking for the problem.
closing
this seems to be a win 6.5 issue, and possibly a problem with SPB software.
I foind this thread but there are others too:
I also found a reference to SK Tools which i also have installed. If I cant find a solution soon, I am going to reset the phone and start a clean slate
reset the phone
well i reinstalled win 6.5 and it was not so bad since i was near the beginning anyway and had all programs saved in one spot. I did not install SKTools this time, i did install SPB online, and so far so good, the apps are staying open.
BTW A GREAT free program is SMARTToolKit which will expand your soft keys and give you lots of quick options....works well.
Yup,it's not all apps, just seems to be IE only. And yes it wont stay open like all the other programs when phone goes to standby. Very annoying. FYI, I'm using 6.1
Dash 3G Apps minimizing
There are few threads on this issue. I have narrowed this down to some change in the registry. I will know which part of the reigstry shorty. After running one of many apps (SPB online, SPB radio, Wunder Radio, Pocket Tunes, SK Tools, even the native Bluetooth app) application windows will not stay open and apps minimze on their own after about 10 seconds. If i restore the registry the phone works fine again. Since this problem spans so many different apps and developers, it is a MS problem. MS may say it is the developers problem, either way someone needs to fix it./
