Hi, this thread is about the HTC Touch Settings program.

Thanks.

Does anyone know what the parameter is(if there is one) to start the M$ picture viewer in slide show mode?
[Touch GSM General] Noonski:
Thanks here's a beer.

Cooked it into my Rom, but i have to admit i transfered the Cities Xml to the original Wether cities XML. Wasting space makes me feel guilty.

Thanks for the App.
[Touch GSM General] bufodill:
Hmm, I like this. now if I just could get the weather to work.

I find my city on accuweathers homepage, and insert the code I get. When it didn't work, I also tried with different spellings.

It should be locCode=EUR|DK|DA013|N%E6stved , but locCode=eur|dk|da013|Naestved also seems to work in ie / firefox. None of them will give me weather though.

Anybody got a clue?

Will buy you a beer on payday if you fix it :P
[Touch GSM General] carlosp_uk:
Hi bufodil sorry to hear you're having problems. I take it you're ticking the checkbox marked 'Set Manually' and entering: EUR|DK|DA013|NAESTVED into the box?

C
[Touch GSM General] bufodill:
Yep, you're right. Tried both N%6Estved and Naestved.

I've also heard from some other norwegians that made their own cities.xml that cities with æ,ø and å are tricky... :(

Gotta be a solution for it, since the cities are in the accuweather system...

Strange though, since copenhagen (København) works with kobenhavn
[Touch GSM General] Cangaceiro:
Is it possible to set another website for the weather because this accuweather.com doesnt show accurate weather forecasts for my city - São Paulo - Brazil.
[Touch GSM General] graffitisurf:
Firstly I would like to thank Carlos for this app. However I cannot get Agenda One to open in the cube in place of the calendar. I get a message "the file Agenda One cannot be opened" because it is not signed or one of its components cannot be found. Can anyone help me?
[Touch GSM General] carlosp_uk:
This is 99% likely to be a 'file not found' error, rather than unsigned.

You're possibly not typing the correct file name into the 'Path' box, it should look something like \Program Files\Agenda One\agendaone.exe (I don't know the name of the agenda one executable / install dir)

Have you tried clicking the '..' button, then finding the file and doing it this way?
[Touch GSM General] graffitisurf:
Wow that was quick thank you. I had tried the browse button but my storage card did not show up. When I tried again after your advice it showed and I'm good to go . Thank you again for an excellent application.
[Touch GSM General] arndt-k:
hi!

Nice addon, i like it! :)

But i have one wish. Maybe it is possible to change one of the cube sites so, that they have only one programm? in the moment, all the cube sites have more than one link (audio, video....).

my dream is, that when i wish over the screen, my contact list comes up (on one site of the cube).

i hope you understand my terrible english. :o

greetings from

arndt
[Touch GSM General] carlosp_uk:
Thanks Arndt.

I think I understand what you are saying... ...you would like to have an app, such as the Contacts application, on one side of the screen, instead of the three launcher screens? I don't think anyone's coded something to do that yet, but I might be wrong. Check out the dev & hacking forum.
[Touch GSM General] arndt-k:
hi carlosp_uk,

thanx for your fast reply. ok, i check the dev & hacking forum.

But maybe you can code it...you are soo good with your application!! ;)

greetings
[Touch GSM General] carlosp_uk:
It's all about hooking into the biotouch.exe application though, which is what runs in the background to respond to the 'finger swipe' action. It then works out which of the three applications (MediaHubMini,APLauncher or QuickDial) to launch, animates the BRNs and then calls the appropriate app. So, yes, i could write a replacement app, but hooking into BioTouch.exe isn't so easy.

Off the top of my head though, I think it's been done - isn't there some sort of 3D glass cube or something, with a QuickDial style contact pic dialler on every side of the cube? Do a forum search, you should find your answer!
[Touch GSM General] nubbin:
No shortcut to Biotouch?

I've flashed the new ROM to my P3300 and all the elements are present, but I cannot get the cube to work. I've tried dropping a shortcut to Biotouch in various menus (settings, Programs etc) and managed to get it to work once. What am i doing wrong? I just want a button to press which makes the cube appear - it worked perfectly on v4.0 before I flashed with v4.1, but now Biotouch won't appear in the drop down menu to apply changes to the buttons menus. Help!

Weather update through activesync

Can anybody tell me how to update the weather in my HTC Touch through my USB connection to internet? It works nicely if updated by GPRS, but not when docked to the USB... the manual says it can be done thruogh activesync, but not how to do it, of course...

Thanks a lot!
[Touch GSM General] ruedi05:
Hi,

i manually installed the prog as it is described in the installation file (at first i killed the process of BioTouch.exe and MediaHubMini.exe, then copy the files to the described folders and so on, at last a softreset). So far so good!

After softreset, when i first start TouchSettings i get the message: "Cannot read existing settings - is HTC TouchFLO installed?". TouchFlo ist installed, so i use the button "ok". The settings appears now: -and here is my little problem- :

On the AppLauncher is nothing (look pic1)! But I have Apps which you can see on pic2!! What's going wrong??

On MediaHub it's ok (look pic3)! I can change the Progs and they are working!

Any tipp welcome.

Kaiser and the cube

Hi there,

Is there anything I could install to get the cube on my HTC Kaiser?
[Touch GSM General] carlosp_uk:
Yes, I'm pretty sure there is. Go and search in the Kaiser forum I think there's several helpful posts.
[Touch GSM General] carlosp_uk:
Hi there

I think this is probably due to your registry keys being located in a different place. Could you do me a favour? Use a registry editing program and search for the key:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\BioTouch\APLauncher\

....if it's not there, can you see a similar key name? If you can get the location of the key to me, I can tweak the program to work for you!

C
[Touch GSM General] oarthus:
Carlos

This is really a great piece of work, making customisation simple even for geeks lik me!

I guess HTC will want to include this at some point in time in core product.

Anyway, as you make things simple, some always would like it to be even more simple. Where can I find information as to what the parameters should be for each app?

For instance I see that in the tmail.exe (linked to messages) it says -service "SMS". Where does this value come from?

I tried setting up with TomTom and it freezes the apps, maybe I'm missing a parameter like NULL or something...

Also maybe it is a way to create a shortcut to create directly a new blank SMS (instead of having to go through several screens)

If I could also create dial shortcuts to specific contacts (the standard HTC one forces you to go through 2 screens as it displays all numbers for one contact) by adding the phone number? I use ILauncher which includes such shortcuts, they are nice.

I realise my question is not directly inked to the app of Carlos, but it should help me (us?) make a better use of it!

Thanks

Olivier
[Touch GSM General] soulfire:
hi, after installing the cab, i encounter the same problems as ruedi05, but i solved it by going into the register directly. NOw i facing another prob,whereby everytime i tap on the "video" on my mediahub, default media player come out instead of TCPMP. For my music and picture in mediahub, the default "picture and video" windows opens with my desired program, what is wrong?
[Touch GSM General] carlosp_uk:
Olivier

The answer is that this completely depends on each application and what command line arguments it accents. A full discussion is really outside of the scope of this thread; but as you have seen, the tmail.exe program accepts a -service argument followed by the (exact) name of the MAPI mail store that you wish to display. Searching these forums should provide answers to some of the other command line arguments available.

Best,

C
[Touch GSM General] carlosp_uk:
soulfire

This is the very reason why my application exists! In other words, editing the registry directly produces these unwanted side-effects. Try the manual install version of the CAB from www.fatattitude.com/software

Hmm I cant get the weather plugin to work for Esbjerg in Denmark.

I use Europe -> Denmark

Manually set: Esbjerg, DK

EUR|DK|DA008|ESBJERG or EUR|DK|DA008|ESBJERG| none of them work.

It displays the cityname on the homescreen but it doesnt get the data. I have checked the code with acuweather and it works fine there, with and without the last "|".

I have tried punching the data in and press save and then ok and save but it doesnt work, I have triede puching them in af reboot, and it doesnt work. Eventhough I press save it doesnt remember the info i punch in...

Does anyone know what I can do to fix it?
[Touch GSM General] carlosp_uk:
Hi, please try this:

1. Click on the weather tab, choose 'Get from Web'.

2. Select a region, select a country and select a place.

3. NOW tick 'Set manually' and alter the text to read:

EUR|DK|DA008|ESBJERG

4. Click 'OK' in the top right of the screen.

5. Now click 'Save'.

Layout problem!

Hi all,

I just install (in manual mode) this wonderful software, but I have a little problem: I try to change the mail launcher icon with a png downloaded from this forum.

Then, with a layout problem, I try to revert to the original png (always taken from this forum), and I got the same result: my layout is broken, as you can see in the attached image...

can you help me?

Thanks in advance!!
[Touch GSM General] carlosp_uk:
It looks as though you have not replaced the original PNG file properly.

Unzip the attached files into your \Windows directory, then change the icons for your Mail to \Windows\AL_01.PNG and \Windows\AL_01_HL.PNG

This should fix it.

Carlos
[Touch GSM General] jedi_ale:
OK!!!

Thank you very much, now works great!!

I have a question: I'd like to replace my icon with the one attached, so have I got to put it on the gray and white backgrounds? Where can I find these empty images?

Thank you for your support!!
[Touch GSM General] carlosp_uk:
Will these do?
[Touch GSM General] jedi_ale:
Ok now it's really good.... thank you so much!

But I don't want to bother you and make you things for me, so can you post the blank backgrounds (and maybe explain in a couple of words how to do this with photoshop or so on???)

thanks for the time you spend for all of us!!

Help: APLauncher Icons

Hi,

I have successfully installed Touch Settings and can working with all custom options well with the exception of one...the APLauncher.

Yes, I can change the icons to my custom ones and it does ask me to power down so changes with take affect. However, all this does is load my custom icon over the default one!

For example...

The first Email icon is still there but my custom icon is loaded over it, overlapping the text "Email" How do I fix this so that my custom icons with or without text completely overwrite the default ones?

Any help is appreciated...

Thanks for the excellent utility...

Hello Carlos,

I've the very same problem. When I start TouchSettings on my XDA NOVA it gives me the message:"Cannot read existing settings - is HTC TouchFLO installed? I'm afraid I didn't see any reply to the first posted question how to solve this.

Hope you'll find time to help with this.

[Touch GSM General] SpikeUK:
Hi all, what I want to do is swap the Tasks button which I never use for a Contacts button, which I would use all the time. Is there a step-by-step guide on how to do this? I'm using TouchSettings v1.22 on an HTC P3300, Windows Mobile 6.

I've tried various things under the Launcher Tab, but I can't seem to get it to work right. Thanks
[Touch GSM General] carlosp_uk:
Before we go down that road, could you just spin the cube around to the Quickdial page (with all the photos on it) - there is a button for contacts at the bottom of here? (the rectangular one with a silhouette of a head on it)
[Touch GSM General] SpikeUK:
So there is - I hadn't noticed that. Picture of a silhouette with three lines to the right.
[Touch GSM General] SpikeUK:
Does this mean that it isn't possible to put a Contacts button instead of the Tasks button? I cannot seem to be able to find that Contacts icon in the list of icons - the nearest one I can find is QD_03_HL.png but that isn't right as it's too light.

[Touch GSM General] gnam:
I don't know why, but there are a couple of day that the font of the cube and the Comm Manager are changed (bigger and terrible), I mean the titles under the icons of the cube.

I try to uninstall Touch Settings and reinstall it but no way to solve.

Any help please?
[Touch GSM General] SpikeUK:
@ gnam and others

How did you get an image of your screen? It's a great trick I'd like to be able to do. Thanks
[Touch GSM General] carlosp_uk:
gnam: The fonts are nothing to do with Touch Settings, this must be a result of something else that you have installed or changed, perhaps while customising the today plugin / cube? Don't know! But, anyway, nothing to do with this app, I can promise you that.

SpikeUK: Look for contacts program in \Windows\ and point your icon to that. Is it \windows\contacts.exe ? Don't have my phone nearby

Anyone having uninstallation issues:

If, for any reason, you can't uninstall, simply delete the shortcut from \Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Touch Settings.lnk

then delete any programs in

\Program Files\Touch Settings\*

...simple as that. If you're really determined, you can also replace \Windows\mediahubmini.exe with the original unpatched version (see www.fatattitude.com/software but that's not necessary)

Hi, I just edited the touch bio thingie so I can launch pictures with teh new htc album and movies with tcpmp.

I have currently 2 littles problems with that now:

1st is: I leaved the param string blank for app 1_2 and app 1_3 but the system keeps launching the ugly and silly default "pictures and videos" browser. I am pretty sure this could be fixed but I do not know how. (I had the same problem using touch settings program).

2nd: How do I change file type association. I would like to open by default avi and wmv and so on with tcpmp.

Thanx for your replies!
[Touch GSM General] carlosp_uk:
It sounds like you haven't installed the program properly; it is supposed to install a new version of MediaHubMini.exe in your \Windows\ directory that doesn't launch the default "pictures and videos" browser. Try to re-install the app properly? Or download the 'manual installation' version and follow the instructions carefully.

Within TCPMP, go to Options -> Settings -> Select PAge -> File Associations and tick the correct ones.

Hope this helps

C
[Touch GSM General] katjie:
Yes thanx a bunch. Everything is finally working fine (how stupid of me... I forgot about changing the file type directly from within tcpmp!)

Cheers

By the way, I noticed while i was editing the registry that the key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\OEM\TFLOSettings contains infos about speed and so on. Any chance we could arrange the settings in there so the touchflo system is a bit more responsive?

Hi, I've installed the app on my HTC Touch and can use the app with no problems except that the (cube?) animation has dissappeared.

Before installing the software I used to get slide and rotate animations when using the finger sweep (left-right, up-down). Anyone else had this problem or ideas on how to get it working?

Thanks
[Touch GSM General] h20wakebum:
None of this works for me...

FIRST:

MediaHubMini does not show up under windows\startup... it is not running... hence, I am unable to install the program... will this work for the Sprint Touch?
[Touch GSM General] SultanH:
I had the same problem with HTC Touch from Sprint. MediaHubMini is not in \windows\startup

and I got a message when installing saying the "the program or setting does not have nenough system permissions."

I installed the Memmaid and killed the MediaHubMini task and then I could install it.

But once you install it and run it you get "Cannot read existing settings - is HTC TouchFLO installed?"

You can click and go in but it doesn't work.

How can we get this to work with the Sprint Touch?

Thanks,

Yes - I've just received a very helpful reg dump from a Sprint owner (thanks for that) so I'll be releasing a new build later this weekend to hopefully get compatability with the Sprint version.

(For those that are interested, the reg key format has changed slightly on the Sprint, presumably they're using a later build of the HTC biotouch software.. ...anyway, it has a different AppX_Y key format that I shall get the software to support.)
