[CAB] launch android from yer start menu - Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Android Development

this is my first working cab and im so proud of it. this puts an icon in your start menu so you can easily boot to android without having to navigate file explorer. this is also uninstallable, if you decide you dont like it go to settings > system > remove programs.
i did check with google and you are allowed to use the android robot so this is legal. all i have to do is write this:

isnt that awesome?

Nice icon, my .cabs do this automatically as well. This would be useful for people installing a .rar tho that still want an icon.
Edit: I linked your post for people who still want to use the .rar and have a start icon. I also made a XDAndroid icon for the start menu if you want to use it, although the original icon isn't bad either.

Actually I was gonna break out the Adobe CS4 and see what I could come up with. LOL I just didnt want to do it today, so I made the start menu link, and not the icon.

i didnt know that. i installed from your cab and it never gave me the icon so i figured i had to make my own. this does also install on any device. i got it on my fuze.

I've added this to the wiki.

By the way mine only shows the HaRET icon ... but it is in the start menu. I am using a 6.5 ROM if that helps
edit: icon shows after soft reset

I've added a link on my page to this cab where the .rar package instructions are. Just in case someone doesn't want to use the .cab, but still wants the shortcut. I also made a new icon for my XDAndroid cabs if you would like to use it also I can send it to you.

thats cool. im sure alot of people appreciate that.

i finally installed the newest version of android and haret is in a different place now. if you have something like total commander you can fix the shortcut under its properties. ill upgrade the cab soon for people who want this more stock icon.

Not to rain on the parade (because hard work is always appreciated) but, isnt this the same thing as dualboot from yozgatg? You can use the icon created in start menu on his project to boot straight into android also, with out resetting. Although, I think he's going to be updating dualboot since the path has changed for the install, which you've already noticed Nonetheless, thanks for the contribution.

Sometimes that dual boot app is nothing more than a pain in the ass. Seems more streamlined with just its own icon. I have an icon i install from my .cabs as well. Don't use dual boot anymore.

If I wasn't constantly flashing my phone, id probably stick with the dual boot, but for me eventually it just got monotonous. I may even go back to it once android is more complete, but for now I just went back to the simple things in life.
lol
Also, these guys need to change the registry (unless you know how personally) to look for the "andboot" folder, instead of "android". Nothing major really.

You make a good point. Since I don't use it everyday, I don't ever really need to boot straight into it. I just run it to show off or mess around with it for a little bit. I dont know how to change the registry, but I know the shortcut for this app can be manually changed to look for andboot as mentioned above. i think that's what you were talking about right?
Oh, I think you were talking about dualboot. Yozgatg is actually updating it today so you can set where haret.exe is located to boot from.

Hehe, great minds think alike Here's one I made a while back:
bedoig said:
I was sick of haret uglying up my start menu, so I used reshacker to swap the icon with one of my own making. Figured I'd share in case anybody else is interested.
The exe now contains 16x16, 32x32, and 64x64 icons, so it should look pretty good on most devices. Just extract haret.zip to your storage card, replacing the existing executable.
For WM6.5 users, I created a cab that will also install a 90x90 png along with a start menu shorcut and the appropriate registry entries.

Great icon
Thanks for this icon, it really works well for the .rar file in Reefer's thread.

so please how to puted in the start menu as in the picture
I have the 6.5 ROM.
Thanks in advance

This is great because I flash ROM's just about every day and lose my shortcut.
Thanks!

Messaging Shortcut

Question: Does anyone know a registry edit or what line in the .xml file edits the shortcut for messaging? I'm not talking about the key on the phone, but the shortcut on the Homescreen. When you click on the shortcut for messaging it brings you to the screen w/ Text/Multimedia, Windows Live, and New E-Mail Account... When I click on it I want it to open up IMSMS. Anyone know how?
But if anyone knows how to remap the button in the lower right, that would be helpful as well.
Thanks!

Has anyone gotten this to work? I tried for a few minutes this morning and had no luck. I'm not sure which directory I should start from... Any help would be appreciated! I just started using extreme text on my phone and I LOVE it, but to fully integrate it I want to be able to push the messaging button and have extreme text come up instead of the mail program. Thanks for any help!!
PS- old, I love all of the stuff on your website, thanks for all of your hard work and effort!

try this, its worth a shot.
you will need Total commander. do a google and you will find their official site. its free aswell.
You will need to go into \windows\ and locate tmail:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
after you locate it go into menu and and hit edit.
you will get something like the picture below:
at this point dont do anything to it.
locate exactly where the "exe." file is located for the program you want to use.
here is an example of my old t-zones key entry modded for Tornado low light, which is a great app by the way. i had to add everything in the quotes.
once you have found its exact location you will need to enter that information back to where image one is at. make sure that you keep "19#" in there.
let us know if that works if not we can keep helping you.
another thing i was going to mention was that you may loose your MMS and email functionality from that button. im not 100% sure of this but make sure you either take a screen capture or write down everything exactly as you see if you want your button to work like it used to.
hopefully i didnt over complicate things because its not that hard and we are here to help you if you get stuck somewhere.

Yeah, I did, actually, it was already in there, with a number after it. I'll do a screenshot on it tomorrow if I get a chance and post it.
I'm not sure if I restarted my phone yet, let me do that.

Okay, restarted it, and no worky, takes me to the WM6 Messaging Screen.
So, I went and checked, and here's what's there for the value.
"\Storage Card\Program Files\Extreme Text\eXtremetext.exe" /MAILLIST
I'm going to remove the part after the quote and see what happens.
Nope, still no worky after restarting.
I'm going to try the other method.
...
That didnt' work either. I double and triple checked it all, no worky.
What could I be doing wrong?
Just uninstalled it and reinstalled it to the main memory, same problems, I changed the locations so they were correct.

[APP] Manila Today Page (MTP) - Today-Plugins in TF3D

Hey guys,
did you seen this new cool tool at the diamond-forum?
This program displays today plug-ins in one of the manila pages.

Greetings,
nick
I like the idea.
With the ROM:s, we actually have the programs tab free, since the programs are reachable via the start menu.
@Nick007
Good find.
Thanks
Did anyone test it till now?
Works well.

Did you have a mod for the same background in all tabs?
If yes, works it with this tool too? (Do you have your custom backround in this modified tab too?)

Yes, it didn't change any other mod. I still have the possibility to change background in all tabs, have different layout, icons etc.
And yes, you can use the same backgrounds from other tabs or you own only for this tab.
Only problem is, that this mod didn't use landscape
There is a problem with this app and dutty's v3.3 with default start menu and programs tab enabled. When u install this software, the last tab in your manila disappears. Mine was Settings, and it was gone... So it was kinda hard to get to settings to change the tab order, but i done it and made the Music tab the last and it's gone but this Today App works fine but there one more thing, try setting "Override tab height" 200 for example in MTP settings, and at the manila tab u will see 2 halfs of backgrounds, aswell as when you hold the Today tab in manila it will show "Today Screen" on the back background, not front
First: Nice work!
It overwrites my Manila preferences page. Now I want to get back the preferences page and map it instead to the stock tab.
How can I achieve this?
you have another solution. In the config app, select today as target page. It will create a new page named today with your today plugins.
I created an extra tab nr.12 (with regedit) and copied the values from the settings(nr.11) tab to the new tab and did a reset then installed MTP did an other reset. MTP shows up as the last tab and your settings tab is still there and also now you're able to move the MTP tab around to the position you want.
From me it deleted the 3rth tab.. my SMS tab... noidea how to get it back, nor do i get an extra tab with MTP options or anything..
went to settings, added **** to my start, softresetted.. nothing..
seems like this program is a hoax ? =/ or am i just tarded ?
works fine for me, it overwrote my settings tab, but i regedited the Tabs so i had the setting tab instead of one of the ones i didn't use anymore (i.e. stocks).
Works a charm!
Works well for me on Miri v24 ROM, however I don't have the background How can I put the same background than my other tabs?
Come on, that's not really nice to say!

Be nice togehter. There are many coders outside who writes pretty good and usefull software. But these guys have only one phone!!!
Not enough money to by every actually phone to write the source for everyone. Or is there a possibillity. Ah yes. Donate and the guys can do that.....
I am a coder too. Not for phones but for industrial automation controls systems. No not Siemens, i am a lucky one .
The today plugin runs on my phone perfect. OK i have an original one. Seen my signautre. But everyone who knows a loittle bit over cocking, cabbing and manila problems, use never the install cab files. Take a klook in the file what he does and do it on the old way. Step by step with your hands and a keyboard.
And another thing is: the most people ~90% forget to do a backup before install new apps. Backup files or the complete phone. However, backup is the trick to come back every time to the original status.
The trick from us users is to feel the toughts from the coder to get an idea what he has done. Why is the button green and not black
The other part of the story is: everybody is free to install apps. Or it is the story - ahh a new driver/app, i MUST have - Why that, we humans are crazy? Thanks god the coders not
Ok back to reallity. Be nice and have respect for the work from others. Many hours of coding, coffee, meal and lovely people in the background that support coders. Give all the time contsructive comments or reports.
Ahh by the way, a report from xda that is an idea. Then every coder can use that doc for user reports. I think i have work todo today.
Have a nice day and cocking, cabbing and gambling wel

In the main settings from MTP there you can select to use the same background as normal, or you can use a own one. There is the possibillity too, to change the hight for your own background.
Play a while with that and you find out new things. I hope it help's.
mike2nl: thanks for your reply.
in settings it is set to use same background, still it is all black, not as my other tabs bg.
I think, sometimes the people don't read the f...g manual. Or better the original thread here.
Ok, there are 79 pages. I have done it and can find out a way on every problem. Why you not? Ok the app is an older one and so as i sayed, the coder can't do it for all the phones and the installed software. My question again. The most of you are using billy soft. Is everyone from you agree what ms have done? I don't think so. But there is all the time a solution for problems. Possible the coder can fix the problems. We have to write down all the facts and inform the owner of the app, because the coder don't take a look in every thread that talks about his app. So be nice and talk with him .
ecb5:
There is a setting for the offset hight for the background. Play a little bit with that. I had have problems too, but in the end i have used a different background. For me it is not so important. Important is that the apps are working. Possible the coder can fix it. We have to write down all the facts and inform the owner of the app. I hoipe it helps a little bit. Otherwise we have to talk again .
Roachie:
You have read the important things in the original thread? Yes? And it is not working? Then you must have done things wrong. I have spoken many people arround me and no one had have problems. What have you done in which way in which steps. Before you talking with this type of words you have todo things that the coder can follow it. But you don't have done that. What do you expect. Sorry but our glass marbless are out yet.
Advise:
Please install it again, step by step. Write down what you have done. Send that to the owner off the app. Then possible you can expect help and support. So long as the owner will do something.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This all here is open source software. That means you have NO warranty of support! All the coders do that about here free will. The coder can say: discontinue. Then there is a problem.
Sometimes i think:
I as a coder, cabber and skinner must stop with my work, because there is more and more no respect for my/our work. At the end you all running without all the good stuff. Only some people have that, the coders....

The bars are Thermed wisbars using the Wisbar Adv3 which can be trialed and downloaded at http://www.lakeridgesoftware.com/products/pocketpc/WisBarAdvance/. This program you should be able to use on any rom. I've found no need to used cooked rom's so at this stage I would have to say no on this.Tks for your comments.

No sorry I don't as I have no way of testing it.
So can u confirm that it works on cooked rom too ?? Because i still see on the first post that it works for default rom only .
The second thing is how to disable the digital clock at the Home Screen
The last one is which version of manilla should i use because now i'm using rom without manila but just miss my manilla when i saw your works.

No I can't confirm as I don't have a cooked ROM, Don't know what you mean by the Digital clock as you say your not using manila. What ROM you use is a personal choice.
instructions..?
this looks promising but I really don't understand the instructions...
are there any more detailed instructions?
Yeah i dont understand instructions either.
Theres 3 or 4 different instructions... Backgorund, Wisbars, manilla etc.
Which do you follow? all of them?
idiots guide would help, alot of people dont know whet they are doing here
what i did
i installed all the cabs one by one then moved the windows skins separately into the wmp folder as per the instructions, sort of ignored the wisbar
it all then started working after a few restarts but I didn't like the outcome, not sure if I got the full effect of course as I didn't / couldn't follow the instructions.
screen pics here look better on the top of the thread than what appeared on my phone... plus everything slowed down very much.
Again, I didn't follow the instructions per letter so maybe that's why I didn't get the full effect

All Zip's need to be opened on your home computer, CAB files are copied and pasted to your phone usually onto your storage card and then within your phone go to those CAB files and press and Install and follow any Instructions.
The Background are just copied and pasted to your phone and then selected through the TouchFLO settings.
The Ultimate WMP Folder is copied and pasted to your Windows Media Player folder on your phone and then selected through the menu options when you boot up your media player.
The Instructions are detailed as to how you get the wisbar on and to get the full affect you will need this. Just place it's folder on your storage card and then follow the instructions.

in the meantime...next project is taking the curve out of rosie so it is uniform with the rest of the screens.
Look awsome
Hey man dont know how to sign zip files but keep working on it your doing a great job....Excited to see the finishing touches
Idea: maybe you could pm Drake and see if you could put it in his rom it would look badass
Hey man i would help out if i could with signing or even drawables if you wanted but my pc's power supply was fried about a week ago during a thunder & lightning storm. If im up and running again soon and swing by to help if its still needed.
I'm willing to help. What rom is this for? Any Hero rom?

Great minds really do think alike . Check the bottom of my post lol
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=4320489&postcount=1
Anyway ive spent countless hours going through .xml's trying to find where it would be located. I thought i came close a couple of times but i would only get stuck in a bootloop. Its either located in an .xml somewhere or it can only be changed from the source(which would suck). There arent many of us who have taken on the task of theming the Hero so we may be alone in our efforts. There is also the "remove" and "select" that would have to be taken out possibly from seperate .xmls otherwise it would overlap the image.
Good thing is that if it is an .xml mod, then there is a simple solution. We just have to find the darn .xmls that control it.
If you wanted to try something temporary, you could replace the middle tab with the image you wanted and modify it with borders and shadows etc to give it a sort of flushed look. Like if it sits within the tab. I tried it with a few images and it came out nice. Worth a try. Anyway great work. Looking forward to your finished theme

oh yeah...since u are familiar with xml....i removed the slider above rosie because i didnt know how to take the curve out....is that a xml edit so i can place that back in?
Lol i know what you mean. Im the same way. I would help with the signing but my pc is down atm. I should have a new desktop in a few days so i can help then. My own projects are at a stand still because of my crashed pc. Sucks. If you put the slider back in it will re-appear with the curve. Easiest thing to do is make it transparent. Itll still be there but it wont be visible.

yeah thats how i have it now.....so it doesnt show...but id love for the slider to go straight across...i was hoping it was an xml thing and u had a solution...no worries...cant wait to get this done....
im thinking instead of just making a transparent lockscreen im going to do some stuff there too....
my question is...do i need to make mods to all the programs that use the lockscreen i.e. music,phone,etc.?
1000+ views and still noone to help get this thing zipped up and ready to go?!?!?!

(try this link I am having problems with uploads right now due to firewall)
androidupdate.tar includes
-complete updates for polymod eclair 2.1g wifi and full market.
-Most apps are themed but still a work in progress.
-HelixLauncher included with stock Launcher
-lcd.density = 150 in build.prop I use this for 320x428 nbh. Adjust your build.prop accordingly for your resolution. 160 for 320x480 and 110 or 120 for 240x320. Make sure to use an eclair nbh from http://ponack.net/poly/BT_Update/index.php?folder=S2Fpc2VyX05CSHMvRWNsYWly/
Just as an understanding I did not create any of this so thank those who did, polyrithmic for the eclair build, cloverdale for the wonderful theme, and to everyone else who has helped me along the way
looks great
looks great, how about posting an update tar?
give me a couple of days there are still a couple spots im not happy with once I can get them then I will be happy to give a link. I was hoping this thread would spawn a little more creativity amongst the kaiser users. There is a ton going on over on the vogue threads with theming for donut would like to see some of that here for eclair.

I figured I'd let you know the download link works fine for me. Thanks for taking the time to post this and send me the links. I probably will not get a chance to mess with it until Saturday. I will definitely let you know how it goes. Thanks again.
Since we're on 2.1D now, what effect does the wifi and market part of the update have on the system, specifically will it 'downgrade' the new settings? Just for the sake of compatibility.
I may just install the theme, see how that goes and get back to you.
Excellent work btw, really like this
resolution
hey i know you said to adjust the resolution through the build.prop file. but how do i edit it? i opened it in the notepad, but it wouldnt save the change?

The first update is based off of Poly's 2.1g Dark, I didn't know of any 2.1D but will check on it. I imagine it would work with his 2.1g plain as well. The update includes the wifi fix and market update that he has posted on his thread I just put them into one package for user friendliness.

Here are links to different resolutions, just install the correct androidupdate you need 320 has lcd.density set at 160 and 420 is set at 150 make sure it gets named properly to androidupdate.tar before trying to install

thanks
hey thanks for the uploads!
so i don't know if its just me or what, but is it smoother now or is it just me? haha. but heres my OPINION, don't take it the wrong way. but..
i thinkyou should just keep the signal bars and battery bars the same just make them blue? with a white outline maybe? and then the helix icon to scroll up the menu is nice, but is there anything different we can change it to? lastly, is there anyway to make the lock bar blue too? hahah just wondering
but great job with the work! me like

The Theme is designed for donut, I made it work on eclair, it does seem to run a bit smoother that may be due to the png's being smaller. As I get time I am trying to get a few of the things you suggested worked in, I don't like the dots, and I might be able to change the helix icon to the original only blue its a little tricky though.
There are a couple other things I am working on ATM and once I am done with those I will probly get back to theming. This is actually my very first theme / contribution to the community.
well let me be the first to tell you then. that was pro. hahah! NICE!

market?
so this is probably a quick fix, but when i was trying to download apps from market, it says start downloading, but it won't go any further then that. i've tried resetting a couple of times but it hasn't had any affect. any ideas?
Just a quick note on changing build.prop or in fact any system file, you must run 'rwsystem' (from console/teminal emulator ), before editing, this makes the system read/write rather than it's normal readonly state, after editing run 'rosystem' to return to normal.
I prefer editing system files using the built in nano editor, since i'm used to it. Not tried editing from gui so ymmv

Were you able to download from the market before, maybe a reboot will help if you haven't done it already. I'll double check again over the weekend to make sure it works for me right now I am working on a full nand install of a 2.1 sense build.
edit: Somehow I missed poly's update to 2.1D some things in this theme may not work correctly on that build due to all of his updates. Once I get squared away at home this weekend I will look into creating several different themes for that build.
yeah oddly enough i was. i tried resetting a couple of times, and even taking out the battery. i sometimes have wifi problems with the market but everything else works fine with wifi. its odd..
thanks again!
