NOTE: Please download the latest build 11142008 at this time. I'm just keeping the older versions (see attachments) for history purposes only.

06 Nov 2008 Update: build 11062008 attached. Change log on post#2.
---------------------------------
Application launcher that LOOKS and FEELS like M2D!
Got some free time so I decided to write an application to replace the M2D's "All Programs" application launcher. Basically, this replaces the folderview.exe in your \Windows directory.
NOTE: Hence, this would only work if you have M2D running on your device!
NOTE: I implemented a finger scroll algorithm. So, if you are running FTouchflo or FTouchSL, please include folderview.exe in the exemptions list.
Features:
1) Interface is very similar to M2D. It uses the graphics of your current M2D theme. If you change your theme, you can exit the app launcher and re-launch in order to effect the changes.
2) Navigation is very much similar to M2D. You can scroll up and down the list or drag-scroll the tab icon bar. The icons in the tab bar represents the folders of your Start Menu; the "Main" category represents links in the root of Programs folder. (Limitation: It only reads the folders under \Windows\Start Menu\Programs. Sub-folders are ignored.) You can alternatively use the D-Pad: Up and Down moves up and down the items; while, Left and Right moves through the folders.
3) It uses you current custom folder icons (icons.lnk). If you want to customize your folder icons, just do a search on how to do it. It has been discussed several times in the past. In order to customize the "Main" category (or Root of Start Menu\Programs), just drop an icon.lnk on your \Windows\Start Menu\Programs\ folder.
4) Wherever/whenever possible, I wrote the code to be compatible with any screen resolution/orientation. But, I tested this only on my device (Hermes, QVGA device). Feedbacks are appreciated.
Screenshots:
Using Diamond M2D Skin:
{
"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_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",

"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Using Deault M2D Skin:
How to install:
1) Copy the attached cab file.
2) IMPORTANT: Make sure folderview.exe is not running on your device. You can use a good task manager to close/kill folderview.exe (or install attached cab file right after a softreset.); otherwise, installation will fail.
3) Copy the cab file to your device and execute to install.
4) Requires netcf 2.0 or higher.
NOTE #1: I implemented a finger scroll algorithm. So, if you are running FTouchflo or FTouchSL, please include folderview.exe in the exemptions list.
NOTE #2: Build 11042008 doesn't have file checking (will fix that soon). SO, if your M2D graphics files are not in the root of \Windows folder, this will crash. Make sure the graphics files needed by this app are in \Windows folder:
1) "hh_fw_tabbtn.png"
2) "hh_fw_tabbtn_mask.png"
3) "hh_fw_background.png"
4) "hh_fw_background.png"
5) "hh_fw_title.png"
6) "hh_fw_tab_bg_fill.png"
7) "HH_SETTINGS_FOCUSEDBAR.bmp"
8) "HH_SETTINGS_SEPARATOR.bmp"
9) "HH_SETTINGS_SEPARATOR_MASK.bmp"
NOTE #3: Before installing, try to use the built-in File Explorer (or Resco Explorer, etc.) and navigate to your \Windows directory. If it takes you a long time loading the \Windows folder as in more than 10 seconds (!), then this application is "unusable" to you as you may experince noticeable lags as it accesses your \Windows folder often. Based on experience, M2D cooked in to the rom is a lot lot faster than installing it via cab.
Enjoy!
Change log:
Build 11142008:
1) New feature: Copy and Move links between folders. Please see video presentation: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NXOeJ4-zDW4
NOTE: Tap-and-hold on a link and drag-and-drop to COPY or MOVE to a specific folder. Default is "MOVE TO" but you can drag the icon to "COPY TO" if you are copying the link to a folder.
2) Faster and smoother scrolling.
3) Same as build 11142008, your M2D graphics files should be in \Windows folder. Otherwise, it will crash.
Build 11062008:
1) Fixed some bugs.
2) Faster and smoother scrolling.
3) Same as build 11042008, your M2D graphics files should be in \Windows folder. Otherwise, it will crash.
Build 11042008:
1) build 11042008 is the initial release. So I expect some bugs. Please post feedbacks. Thanks.

i just get the error "an unexpected error has occured in folderview.exe.....usw"

That's because of the bitmap mask on the tab bar. Without the mask, scrolling would have been a lot lot faster. I'm using .netcf and I can't find a good class to handle bitmap masks. so i implemented it using lockbits and manipulated the pixels one-by-one. Not an elegant way of doing it, but it works well.

netcf version 2.0 or higher is required.
this looks great. Can't try it yet because I'm trying out m3d, which made of think that this would also be great if you could run it as a stand alone app-launcher (a program that could be run outside of m2d).
I've been looking for an app launcher like this that simply follows the folder structure of my programs folder. It would be great if we could have it as a program and therefore run it from a hw button. Thanks and great job!
Looks cool, wonder if anyone has a Japanese Rom

Hi
I've got the same problem.
Looking into the Exception, I noticed it's actually a "FileNotFound" Exception...
I've got .NET CF 3.5 up and running on my device (HTC Prophet G4).
Is there any additional file to install beside the cab ?
Thanks in advance for your help
Cheers

I didnt want to go on a rampage and ppl start asking icons for EVERY software out there... :/
These icons are all in vectorial, so they can be reused and resized easily, just drag the attached swf to a I.E. Windows and zoom in, or import the SWF to any adobe software.
The start menu files are transparent PNG inside the Windows folder.

Post in your findings...
Thanks Twolf for your great work.
Installed your tool and it works fine.
I also installed Titanium weather. To do the settings was easy. But if i type the zip code of my city in germany, the plugin gets wrong weather datas, i think. I believe, that it gets datas from US.
How can i type the right zip code, so that the plugin understands, its a code from germany?
Thanks and greets
Pinotage - you need to go to the accuweather site and do a lookup for an international city. You'll then get the code - for example: London is EUR|UK|UK241|LONDON
Put that in instead of a zip
rom
So many WM 6.5 Rom's i cant decide which to try, any recommendations as to which is best
Kieran
This is from NemanjaLO
The start menu order is held in the reg key:
"HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Shell\StartInfo\Start"
The Rank value determines the order.
Either set this when you build a ROM or export this to a .reg file once you've got it how you want it so that you can re-import it after re-flashing.

Thanks, yes it is, it works fine on wm6.5, just one thing, never close the start menu.... or it wont open again untill you reset. If you open it and want to close, just press the TODAY icon....
Havent figured out yet what exclusion to add on WKtask or how to have a transparent icon bar. :/
Is there any way to get transparency bars in manila2d?
I have found little bug: if manila was started by manila-control, it got transparency bars.
But tapping on start menu will change it back to classic one

yes works for me,too...but it has no transparancy.... in your screenshot it seems to be transparent
ahh ok i see it you just got an lightly tsk-theme so it seems to bee transparant.... would be nice if u or someone else got it glassy
Another tip:
To reorder the start menu icons you can press and hold to send a icon to the top (not extremely helpfull, but its a START), also, after you reorder them as you want, you can backup that order by exporting the regkey HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Security\Shell\StartInfo\Start.
Not really a trick or tip but could be usefull for some people!
I have my hands on a WM6.5 ROM for german users! More infos will be ready as soon as possible!
animelover, I will make love to you when this really happens )
Hoi twolf
Thanks for your tips and tricks they are very helpfull, I've just have a small problem I'm trying to use your startmenu_grid scene but I get an error about copying file and acces is denied, is there another way to use ure grid_scene ?
btw I'm using NemanjaLO's rom First Updated and my phone is a niki100 16k with radio 1.65.29.22.
Just a small tip try R_fyvitto Hexagons see pic.

I use resco explorer that bypasses those errors, you can force the overwrite with a cab file, but Resco is the way to go for future problems...
Themes and tsk
Here's a link for qVGA themes for WM6.5:

The tsk can be opened with WinCE Cab Manager (commercial program), and the images replaced easily for new looks. Unfortunately, you cannot bundle custom pngs for the buttons, titles etc in the tsk, and it needs to be added separately.

any reponse, comments, infos, bugs, or suggestions yet?
a friend beta test it and now am currently patching the code for confirmation box (MessageBox).
Wait for my next post..
friend:
"A message box "Done" keeps appearing everytime i copy or delete multiple files"
indeed a bug, just a minor bug though .. what he meant was "while copying and deleting"
fixed.. new download available. Use the links from the first post
Okay, my little feedback:
Couldn't test it right now because of the following fact:
It only works with WWE-Roms. My is a german ROM so my startmenu folder differs from yours (my is "PPC:\Windows\Startmenü").
But I have a folder that is named like yours, but only of some wrong installations of some other progs. If I delete this folder your prog starts with an error. We need an option to change the start menu folder.
@lycox
that's interesting! any more advance users can tell me their Start Menu locations?
What I could do is to make a list of start menu locations (based on your feedbacks about it) and scan if one of those exists. If not then probably I could make a deep folder scan and look for an interesting shortcut files and make it as a Start Menu path.
Or use the environment variable %CE11%
Or use the environment variable %CE11%
EDIT: sorry for that double-post ._.
@alexirsi
hey, I didn't know WM has environment variables. Thanks for that info!
hello, GREAT APP, just one thine your version 2 is not recognised as a CAB, keeps asking to open with something, can i ask how to get around this.
Thankyou for your great work.
@r8zer
Well .CAB files are supposed to be like an .MSI on Windows Desktop. If .CAB files are not recognized in your WM, probably something messed your file type associations. I cannot give an additional information about it (there is but, I don't think you're going to like it *eheclearmemoryem*).
I'll try to upload the binaries too in case .. It'll be available later after I finish some path references in codes
thanks for such a quick reply, all other cab files are working fine, so i dont think that it is a file system problem on my phone as im thinking all cabs would have this problem,
thankyou.
EDIT:: Just found the problem the file downloads with the cab extension but after the cab there was an underscore, i have removed that an will try again.
EDIT 2:::: YES ALL WORKING!!!!!, SWEET!!!
@r8zer
I tried downloading the CAB from my Skydrive and I was able to install it in my WM6.5
not sure what causes your problem. Am not sure either if other users downloaded the CAB have the same problem since I have no feedback from them. Though @lycox was able to install it but it shouts an error due to WM version problem, not sure why his Start Menu path is different (WM German version) probably a character encoding
yer a bit of a strange one, but it works great, maybe he has the same problem where there is an underscore just after the cab, and it's not being recognised like what happened to me, could be as simple as that.
but thankyou for your work this app is really useful at getting the program screen nice and tidy.

I have to say, that after downloading the file from your account, I had the underscore too. But that wasn't a real prob. Just renamed it
One more hint: Most of the localized ROM's have localized paths too.

Hi,
I really appreciate this plugin, nice work, but....
I don't know if its caused by WM7 project which I am using, but plugin appears in titanium (with different font, but its OK) and there is no reaction / I cant play anything or move fwd/back. Only Launch button reacts.
Any possible solution to fix this ? Thx.

Ok, i have uninstalled WM7 project and everything works fine now, but the plugin is modified to your custom titanium layout, could you make it for original titanium layout ? - fonts, height and format of each menu. Thx
Can in install the nitrogen in my storage card,my memory,or device memory?
Maybe i can save some memory....
re:
4 frybend:
1) WM7 project is not supported by JMLPanex!!!
2) i'm write new plugin file with default Titanium layout, see 1st post attachments, or you can edit *.plg file for changing skin and then apply it from Start Menu

You can install Nitrogen player where you wont, path to nitrogen player you can choice when installing CPlayer or from StartMenu by running NitrogenLoc.mscr !!!

If you have installed only cab file, you must:
Download default_multires_orig_titanium.zip from 1st post and extract plg file from it to: /Program Files/CPlayer/
Then run Change_skin.mscr from Start Menu and choose skin: default_multires_orig_titanium
Then will be work fine...
Cab installation file contains only VGA skin!!!
Thanks for your work.
could you give an OEM package for this great plugin ?
Thanks again.

the original idea of the skin came from the RR33 HTC Sense like dialer skin(but it only skined the dialpad)
Ok we need some more info:
this dialer is only portrate (can rotate but no dialing in landscape)
this dialer has video dialing (there is no conference call)
this needs to be cooked into a rom to work as it should.
WVGA version
And here is the WVGA version I'll add some screens later tonight if I find the time
Topaz Hero Dialer 3g
could maybe use this one too
It's cool, thanks man, i will try
There's no landscape support for this dialer right?
Would really like to try a cab... is there anybody willing to cab it up please? Thanks gullum!
thanks for your great work......but i've got a little problem (see picture)
awesome work mate i would cab it up if i knew how to
just curious, is anyone able to port this to WQVGA?
cheers gullum!

what phone and did you cook it in?
there needs to be a shortcut to phcanvga.exe (amarullz app) in start up folder
great skin, but can't install it. the reg file into phone canvas dir says no valid registry files and when i copy all filesi in windows folder my phone became the wm default dialer. how can i install this skin
ported just from topaz? what about from TP2 ? Just for a landscape mode
would this work on a cdma vga touch pro?
It doesn't have conference call, right?
added wvga to post2 and updated 1. post with a little more info
Compressed Images and CAB

Thats because it is a PACKAGE FOR ROM COOKING. There is no cab as of yet. If you look at original post check out these bold areas:
Only EXT package if someone wants to make a cab your welcome
After the feedbacks from the diamond keyboard to qvga I never will make a cab again
..........
this needs to be cooked into a rom to work as it should.

EDIT: I went ahead and:
1) Compressed all images and all images inside phcanimages.dll
2) Signed all .dll files (wouldnt install without signatures)
3) Cabbed it all up
5) Edited phcanrc.dll to remove scrollbars
5) Uploaded to my FTP with direct link There is also the uncompressed unsigned cab there which is 14MB compared to 8MB
HERE is the link. I can host for a few weeks, but will most likely remove after that. If Someone needs the uncompressed version let me know and I will sign the dll's and upload again the cab.
DONT FORGET: When installing you need to kill phcanvga.exe and cprog.exe first
EDIT2: Also, I remove phcanoverbmp.dll because most ROMs have this already and it will mess up custom taskbars if overwritten. You can get it attatched to this post.
EDIT 3: Reuploaded corrected cab as per the following few posts.

Let me know if it works ok. I tested on my own cooked ROM installing over the LEO 2G dialer without issue. Just want to make sure it works ok for others(although I am sure there will be a few who "just can't get it" )

Let's say I nearly got it... Unfortunately, I got my custom taskbar nearly wiped out. However, you can see my specs in sign. I'm running Amarullz's WM6.5 position fix (not Showcase, but previous version with no task manager function), which works perfectly even for Resco2010.
I'm attaching screenshot, I've installed modded Amarullz Rhodium dialer, aluke's rev.6 taskbar (and position fix), if that matters. However, thank you so much to both creator and cabber, dialer is even opening Sense contacts and automatically got Italian translation.
EDIT: sorry I changed the screenshot (cause it contained personal infos... ), so I pointed out the issue with red boxes.
Guess I didnt remove phcanoverbmp.dll after all. I will update the cab for others. You could uninstall and reinstall to get taskbar back(after I update the cab which I will do now), or go to windows and delete phcanoverbmp.dll(assuming your taskbar is a cooked in feature), and it will return to the file build into ROM.
The other issues I believe are due to the phcanvga.exe program(it shows the SIP menu area in a fixed size or something). The empty area on the right was not like that when I tested it, is that always there?
EDIT: Reuploaded cab without the phcanOverbmp.dll and am attatching the file to original post for those that need it.
A small tool I made while creating my ROM. I don't know if this will help you in any way guys but it's my share for this community and a big thank you for helping me.
So here's DropToWin
Which copies files and folders to \Windows directory. I think it's a good tool if you're trying to make some changes in your WM.

I also wrote another program called Package Manager. Grab it here
good job, p're. will try it. i'm particularly interested in stop/start sense without going though the hassle.
p.s. just installed it in storage card, not on device, did a soft reset but cannot launch restart/stop sense. error says: file 'drop to win' cannot be opened, either it is not signed with a trusted certificate, or one of its components cannot be found.

forgot to tell, you have to install it in your device. the shortcuts was looking for DropToWin.exe in \Program Files\Gambit Mobile Tools\DropToWin.
