customizing touchflo question - Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development

hey guys, quick question. i currently am using romeos rom. i just wantto be able to remap those two buttons at the bottom of each tab. for example when i go to the contacts tab, when i click on all people, i want it to open finger friendly friends instead of the default contacts program. ive downloaded the touch flo configuration utility, but that doesnt allow me to do this. any ideas? i cant imagine this being too hard. thanks in advance

u need manila customizer i guess, (but i never tried it tho)

Dcd 2.2.0 with touchflo

I downloaded A touchflo .cab and installed but nothing happened.
When i would try to launch it(from programs/touchflo) it would say that it was alrighty running
Any ideas
ok so touchflo is working in the sence of scrolling. But i dont see the main screen that displays big clock, and start menu.
maybe im mistaken on what that is. can someone help
Never played with touchflo, but for the big clock I think what you want is HTC home.
thanks thats main screen right
same thing happens to mine it says running but nothing happens how do i make it work?
try swiping your thumb from bottom to top on the touchscreen..
i just tried that but still nothing
Guys...
Touchflo is just the software to make the touchscreen touch-sensitive to scrolling like the HTC Touch. It is NOT HTC Home today plugin, HTC Cube, or any other software you may think it is. Therefore nothing will happen unless you're actually using software that allows you to scroll...i.e. PIE or a text editor or what have you.
For the clock and today screen plugin you want to get HTC Home.
For the cube you want either HTC Cube or Vistacube (there are others, but those are the main two)
If you install one of the cubes, it comes with Touchflo...so you can uninstall the Touchflo you've already installed and just install one of the cubes.
Thanks that helps me alot.
One more question.
Are those cubes complicated so set up ?

Help: Need to remove "hide keypad" from phone app

I've noticed on the newer based rom kitchens the left soft key function in phone app of "contacts" is gone and replaced by "hide keypad". How can I modify the .sys or to restore it to "contacts" so I can scroll through my contact using my preferred app of random access. Also when used with M2D you lose the today screen contact tab as well making it very difficult to get easy access to contacts. I know you can press the hide keypad and it shows the recent calls and contacts but I hate using it that way and prefer the old contact left soft key. I have two phones afflicted by this a titan running dcd 3.26 and a vogue running a base of 20748. I use the touch and vogue dialers and on older based rom the hide keypad wasn't there but is on new ones using the same dialers. I'm asking here as I have received no useful answer at ppcgeeks.
Hi drellisdee,
The reason the left soft key no longer bring up "true" contacts is due to the switch to a touch dialer. The touch dialer incorporates "smart dialing" which allows you to spell out the contacts name using the onscreen dial pad. Once you get this down you will no longer want the old method.

You can do that with the MR1 dialier, which has left softbutton as "contacts". I don't think the two features are directly related.
Tried using different dialers and my conclusion is that its the .sys not smart dialing nor the dialers as I tried making roms with and without smart dialing and used several different dialers the true touch one and then the old one from the ppc kitchen from 10/07 which would show the contacts tab on a older .sys base rom. I tried using the phone.dll and the phone redist from an older pre 20k sys which the same dialer gave the contacts tab and the rom built with no error just the phone app would fail to intialize as you couldn't bring up any dial pad.
I actually started thread about this at ppc but it has to do with the fact that all of the diamond sys ports are not true whole sys ports there are some modules in the redist folder in the sys that you have to change and a couple in the baselang folder .... in the past I have done this but here lately I haven't really worried about it .... you could always just find the newest qvga build and port it
Great Post.
That "Hide Keypad" was annoying the sh*t outta me as I couldn't get smartskey to work properly. After reading the thread above it assured me nothing I was doing would get rid of the Hide Keypad option so now I'm living with it.. LoL..

So how do i remove it?
I don't understand what you're saying.
Thanks

Delete soft key for SMS - Going Insane!!

Please tell me someone has figured out how to make the Reply/ReplyAll softkey the Delete key instead. All other mail main screens have delete as the softkey, but for whatever reason they don't think that you want to delete sms messages. The reply softkey only takes you to the same place that selecting it with the main button does; so why have two keys with the same function on a device with few keys to begin with. This is driving me crazy!! I get system alerts all day long and I don't need to open the message to read the whole thing before I delete them. I can't be the only one annoyed by this.
Are you talking about being able to delete it from the HTC touchflo front end? If so, when you pull up the message with out opening it and you see it in the TF3D front end, just touch the menu button, and the delete option is there.
No, not the manila/TF3D interface, but the native messaging interface.
i too would rather have a delete soft key rather than a reply button. back when i used my mogul i think this was the case when it had gone through dcd rom stages 2-3. the delete button ended up changing to reply as it is now and id really like it back
Anyone figured this out yet? I had this same with my Hermes and now I have the TP and it has reply. Its really useless. Anyone figured out a .cab or a registry edit key yet?
I guess no one has figured this out yet. Thanx for trying.
its hard coded into the tmail.exe...i have made a script for myself that will delete on one click from my home key...i just simulated the actions through mortscript...
So there is no .cab out there that will just change the "reply" to "delete" for me since i am using the Stock ROM instead of cooked roms?
Guess i'll have to learn mortscript now.

mortscript is pretty basic scripting...here is my script and the program itself...also the instructions on how to use it...you can use my script for reference...hope this helps!!
changing the reply softkey to delete in htc maple/snap/dash 3g
having the same issue. the softkey in all modes except text/multimedia is 'delete.' in text/multimedia it is 'reply.' driving me nuts in an understatement. it was 'delete' in the previous version. is there a registry hack for this? or, barring that, a mortscript that will accomplish the change? thanks.

New user help!

Well so far I love the phone eventhough it feels kind of weak. But I have some few questions on upgrading, usually im good with searching but i guess not this time. So im looking for a way to make things more finger friendly like menus etc, making them able to scroll instead of using a sylus and if possible using T9 on when not using the keyboard. What do you all suggest?
I just got mine too... I have sprint so I started with the Sprint wm6.1 update.
So far I've installed:
s2u2 (slide to unlock)
htc home plugin (you want this)
s2p (audio player)
s2v (picture viewer)
oxios memory
Look at my thread in this section called sprint mogul must haves, alot of good stuff was suggested there
the gullum diamond keyboards are awesome. i use the diamond keypad for T9 while i'm driving. its awesome. link below:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=392197
Great! Now how can I make the start and stuff like that more finger friendly?
So I installed the home customizer and now the screen flip is not at the bottom anymore but in the customizer but when I use it in the customizer it turns the screen the wrong way. What do i do?
Nevermind I did a hard reset. One last thing is when the slider is open do all yours have a movement in the slider when you tap on the screen?

Change soft key under each touchflo 3d tab

Is there any app or way to change the soft keys for each touchflo 3d tab? Like under the people tab thare is the "all people" on the left and the "menu" on the right. I would like to change the all people from going to contacts to going to pocketcm. Is there any way of going about this? Changing some other soft keys would be nice as well.
Use SoftKey manager
Thanks, already tried that one, only lets you change the right and left soft keys on the home tflo3d tab. I want to change the soft keys on any of the other tflo3d tabs like people, or messages, and programs. Any one else with any ideas?
Did you mean TAB-s?

No they used the word "each" before the word tab so they phrased the question correctly. "each tabs" or "each tab?"
But yeah, I am looking for the same thing. I will post it here if I find it. If not... Off to the reg we go!
It has to be doable because people mod the reply button all the time. If you can mod that then you shoudl be able to mod anything, right? Possibly a hex editor for exe files? I hope so bad its not hard coded but you never know.....
soft buttons on tf3d home
I'm also looking for something like this. With touchflo3d turn off, the home screen left soft button will be "calendar" by default, but when you have a reminder/notification, it switches to "notification" "reminder", etc.
when touchflo3d is enabled on the home screen, this button becomes controled by tf3d, and while you can customize the button, it no longer becomes context sensitive - I find we have to hit the icons at the top bar (live msg, reminder, etc). these little icons are a bit hard to hit. ANyone know if the tf3d homepage soft button can become a 'notification' popup activation button?
dwight.
I think that the stock rom actually has this...so I know that it's possible. That also bothers me.

Does this let me set one of my softkeys on my home screen to "notification"
Just a quick update
I switched to a new rom last night from 'aruppenthal', 'RRE HTC Fuze ROM Ver 4.5 Special Edition" (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=467592), and it seems that this has a different behavior from my previous rom "PROven_ROM_WWE".
in any case, my tf3d home page now has "calender" and "contacts" as the lower soft buttons, and my reminders are coming up and seem to be changing the lowerleft softkey to "dismiss". I've yet to see "notification", but i'll keep an eye on it for a few days and let you guys know about the behavior.
one thing I left enabled this time, was the "system status" window when you hit the topbar icons - this has a shortcut to a mail icon when there's a notification for that, and when hitting it, it shows the respective notification popup at the lower part of the window. That might be a 'workaround' for those who preferred the old notifications but want to keep tf3d.
dwight.

Edit Registry below, you can modify first page of TF3D Soft Key.
\HKLM\Software\HTC\Manila change value of each key (LSK for Left Soft Key, RSK for Right Soft Key)
HomeLSKArguments - Arguement of application you'll be calling
HomeLSKPath - Path to program with in "" i.e. "\Program Files\WebIS\PocketInformant\PocketInformant.exe"
HomeLSKText - text of the button.

This doesn't solve this question - this solution is already mentioned. Please read the previous posts before posting.
Any solutions to this questions yet? Been searching both the forum and google without any luck....
Well, the solution is actually SSMaHo! Just do a search for it. Works like a charm and lets you remap pretty much anything
I also have same issue with X1.
Att the Settings Tab, I really want to change left soft-ket to launch the System Setting but default is CommManager.
I already searched the forum and google with no luck. So I tried to looking into source code and just found something.
It is correct or not, however "settings.mode9" file have embedded LUA codes and these codes contains some soft-key assignment codes.
BTW, codes have not only one assignment code, it contains several assignments and TF3D can apply each soft-key by situation(or any registry? macro? configuration?) I think.
ok, so i want to remap the default today screen contacts softkey to bring up the touchflo 3d 2 contacts but cant find how to link to it. any takers?

this totally solves the problem in manila, touchflo3d 3.0
none of the other solution worked for me
you need manila editing
Hi guys, i was pm Captain_Throwback about this and here his answer.
You can only remap the soft keys in the Manila Home tab. Changing the others requires Manila editing, and may not even be possible. Here are the registry keys for the Manila Home tab soft keys:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\Manila]
"HomeLSKText"=""
"HomeLSKPath"=""
"HomeLSKArguments"=""
"HomeRSKText"=""
"HomeRSKPath"=""
"HomeRSKArguments"=""
Only the "Text" and "Path" keys need to be used - the "Arguments" key can be left blank.

So you'll need a manila editing. for more information do a search or contact him directly by pm. he is a very nice and very patient person that i know so far

I made an application on VB.net that can assign Home Softkeys to any program in Start Menu, also you can assign it to any other touchflo's tab...
This application is tested on Raphael device with Touchflo 3D 2.0
thanks....
cool.... this worked very easily.... I don't want to install another Cab file just to change the button name.....
thanks again.

Thanks geolab!
Just need to figure out the Manila://.page name for the All People view under people now.
Edit: Manila://people\browserlayer\?.page works!
I need the All Programs sub page now
Geolab's Manila Softkeys
Thanks Geolab!
Works perfect! I'm using gangsters 6.5 windows mobile rom, desperately trying find a solution and no one elses worked! Can't believe your post has been sat here all this time, the amount of people that should know about it is ridiculous!!! Made changing the soft key assignments in touchflow 2 (3d) real easy.
So glad to have the 'phone' LSK to TomTom and the 'camera' RSK to PSShutXP!
Very greatful!
