For those who are using Alpha 3, these are the things I've done to improve overall responsiveness on my ATOM -

1) Modify FtouchFloConfig.txt - Change Delay:0 and GestureWaitingDelay:350

2) Remove all other applications listed in the config file that you dont need to launch.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] efrost:
Hi to all!

I've released Alpha 4 version which is fast and reliable. Please read comments in the first post.

For those who still have problems with down-up-down gesture, here is description how it is recognizing down-up-down gesture, so I hope it will help you:

During "GestureWaitingDelay" time all events from stylus buffered.

If "GestureWaitingDelay" time exceeded, all buffered events will be sent to Windows without any recognition!

If during "GestureWaitingDelay" time you'll up the stylus, recognition process will start and it will check:

1. First (where you've touched screen) and last (where you've released stylus) points are at the bottom of screen which is height_of_screen / 3 * 2.

2. For all points between first and last there is check: X-50 < X < X+50.

3. Y coordinate of upper point of the gesture less than height_of_screen / 2.

So, if all these 3 conditions are true, gesture will be recognized.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Ronnymes:
Great work Efrost,

But you don't solved the align problem :(

I cant align the screen..
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] efrost:
What is the problem? What you're doing and what is happening?

I didn't touch calibration in this release... My friend wrote this mathematical hell and he is very busy now to look on problems and fix them.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Ronnymes:
When I install youre great ap scrolling is great! nice speed, but cant press the button 7 + 8 + 9 etc.( soft kb)

I have to align the screen again, only thats not possible.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] efrost:
To use standard align screen application you shouldn't start FTouchFlo. So, just softreset your device and run align screen application.

But I really don't think that if you'll align your screen with standard application it will start working with FTouchFlo because when FTouchFlo is running all calibration is done by FTouchFlo internal procedure.

I would recommend to delete calibration.dat file, softreset device, run FTouchFlo and pass FTouchFlo calibration procedure once more.

If you'll have problems after that, please, publish here your calibration.dat file from the root directory, and I'll take a look on it.

Thank you!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Ronnymes:
Oke tnx, trying now ;)

-Edit- Problem solved tnx m8 !!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] efrost:
Ok. Hope you're trying Alpha 4 :)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] evojulz:
Awsome efrost, trying now. I just got to work but I just can't wait...

You might want to add in the uninstall procedure (for us noobs) to remove the shortcut from the Windows/StartUp folder before S/R and then uninstall, otherwise it's still running when you uninstall and the screen stops responding.

Edit: And backup your config file, but watch for changes ;)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Ronnymes:
Yeah I did :)

I love it to, its working great now!!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] evojulz:
First impressions: I like the confirmation S,L,D.

Sliding and Launching work ok, but when an app in the exclusion list is launched then minimised the screen becomes unresponsive. Hard buttons still work and S/R is the only way to get out of it...

Back to Alpha2 for me. Keep up the good work though ;)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] efrost:
Upss.... Stop! I've found it! 5 min and I'll reload A4.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] elgreek84:
Oh man, I've been having tons of fun anticipating the next release. I'm glad it's finally here. I've b een checking this thread like at l east 1 time every 5 minutes. Woo!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] evojulz:
See my signature, same as yours, P3600 but with official WM5 1.23.405.2 ROM and 1.38.00.11 Radio.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] generalriden:
Possibility to set up initial mode: "Scrolling" or "Launching"

please elaborate this..

what is scrolling mode and the launching mode? , i cant find a D also
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] efrost:
Hi!

In the "Scrolling" mode you're able to scroll contents of windows with scroll bars.

In the "Launching" mode you're able to start programs defined in configuration file with up-down, down-up, left-right and right-left gestures.

"Initial mode" means that you can set up which mode will be active after you'll start FTouchFlo.

Sign "D" means "Disabled". When you're working with program which is defined in configuration file as Excluded, you'll "D" sign at the top of the screen.

Thank you!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] elgreek84:
efrost been having problem on my mogul6800 coming out of my lock/poower off. touchscreen stays disabled and cant unlock and have to reset. srry cant explain much writing from phone

it turns off when i go in suspend mode the s symbol on top disappears
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] curious george:
@efrost

How do get it to ignor the SIP(Keyboard) & Grumps iPhone app????

What about for programs with tabbed pages, introducing a left to right sweep like scrolling horizontally, that switches tabs??

Thanks

Curious George
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] efrost:
It ignores SIP.

To ignore APP you should put it the config file. Take a look on existing config and read the first post, please.

Switching between applications - good idea :) I'll think about it.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Ragart:
efrost -- fantastic new version! Love the indicator up top. Very, very small, but it shows the info we need at all times. And, if I'm not mistaken, the scrolling does seem even easier than before.

Great job!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Olioaglio:
efrost,

alpha4 is really mindblasting step forward...

Usability is really great now, no more slowdowns,

exceptions work fine, gestures is a great feature.

WOW, donation is on the way ;)

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] efrost:
Thanks a lot! :)

Thanks a lot! efrost!

but..would you please check the link again^^?? or you are modifying the file again^^??

here is what the pop-up windows says [B\Invalid Attachment specified. If you followed a valid link, please notify the administrator[/B]

Updated: the link works again!! thank you!!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] aaronsmckee:
link not working

The A4 release link is not working can someone check it?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] mphayvanh:
Works flawlessly on my x51v WM6!

Next request: GUI for the config file..then my world would be perfect (and a 32GB SDHC for the Axim).
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] efrost:

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] minz215:
Future implementation.

@efrost

I don't know if this could be implemented but it would make life easier if you could use both applauncher and scrolling together. This is my idea of how it could work.

By registering where finger was first placed and where it was removed.If the finger starts from maybe 20 pixels (could be more/less) from edge of screen ,and finishes 20 pixels from opposite edge of screen, within a time limit of maybe 100ms, you register a program launch, or else register a scroll. I'm not sure if you could implement this but it would be cool if the app could work like this.

Thanks on what you've done so far. Alpha4 seems pretty bug free at the moment.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] efrost:
I can try to implement it this way but I don't think it will be useful enough since sometimes you'll be launching applications instead of scrolling :)

Anyway, I'll definitely try this way! Thank you!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] hamstarz:
Same exact problem with my mogul. 9 times out of 10, I'll lock my phone and put it into suspend mode, and it will come out just fine. However, sometimes when it comes out of suspend mode, the touchscreen will completely be not working. The indicator icon at the top will be frozen/not working. Only a soft reset fixes this issue. I have not had this problem with any other verison of the app. Otherwise, great work!!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] eman3316@optonline.net:
I am having a problem when when running V4 and Wisabar Advance 3. Seems that when I minimize a program my touch screen becomes unresponsive. Any chance you could release only the scrolling portion of it without the indicator button on top. I am thinking maybe the indicator at top and the minimized program do not play well together. I do like the idea of being able to launch a program or scroll without an additional button press.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] elgreek84:
Ok it's working now, I think I downloaded right after he posted it, apparently there was some problem withit. I redownloaded the new version he put up and it's working perfecly and fast! great job! thanks!

Hi efrost,

Tested on my Hermes and its working EXCELLENT! Im going to finish the Cube Start up and Cube close for Cube Launcher Verison 0-06. Can't wait to see it start up!!! Excellent work once again!!!

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] myownregister:
hi efrost,

great to see you're feeling well now coz what came out was simply amazing work!

just tried alpha4 and would like to report that the launcher does not launch the gCalc calculator app. when launched, it simply displays a windows wait icon and then goes back to the today screen. other apps work perfectly!

alpha4 simply is the best! very clean, simple, and really wonderful app!

regards,

myownregister (running WM5)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Sian:
Hi efrost

Just to check, do i need to uninstall previous version before installing the new one? Also, I've experienced screen totally not responding after uninstalling. Is this normal? I need to soft reset each time I uninstall the old & install the next version.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] curious george:
I have been using the 1st post as my guide and placing apps in the exclude list since v2. And it works a heck of a lot better on v4. My question was more directed at the fact that the Iphone app by grumps seems to be a Process not an actual named program. Granted it could be both but a search in the settings/running programs does not list it. I have used a task manager to find it so I know its name.

Will touchflo ignor listed processes as well???

Thanks,

Curious George
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Sian:
Hi

Can tell me the setting to launch Cube Launcher by Slither 2006? Also, what program to be placed where. The one in the FTouchFlo a4 I'm not sure whether it's what i've in my phone. Thanks.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] bchau:
Alpha 4 works great! Just one request:

Can the status "S", "L", etc be hidden?

Thanks Efrost.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] michd43:
I agree with bchau or even place it somewhere else and a bit larger. It sucks to pull out the stylus, (Dam Seidio Case) and then put it back.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] blablum:
How about implementing a list of programs where FtouchFlo always works as slider and another one for working with the launcher? After the program is closed or minimized, FtouchFlo could go back to the general value. That would really make this perfect.

By the way, great work so far!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] z0d1ak:
well can u give me the thread link or the link from where i can download it from man ?? i don know i m still looking around for a complete stable wm6 pro rom for my device but no matter wat i try sum or the other has sum problems ! since i recently joined up this so can u suggest me sum max stable roms that u tried out i guess i tried mos of them unlike me ! i m still trying them out ! thanx

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] c_shekhar:
Hi efrost!

the alpha4 is functioning much better on my Hima. The horizontal flow does not work. Very goo bro!...
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] efrost:
Hi! Yes. You should uninstall previous and then install new one.

It's normal behavior. If you're uninstalling FTouchFlo when it is active, Windows just kills the process and screen is not responding. I am using buttons to install new one instead of sofreset. :)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] efrost:
You should set up FTouchFlo to run a program which will rotate the screen.

Thank you!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] efrost:
Hi. Ok. In the next version. Thank you.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] efrost:
Hi! Any process started by some executable file. You just have to know it's name. Check startup folder and also HKLM\Init registry key for executable you have running on your phone. One of them will be the process you want to exclude.

Thank you!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tchoklat:
How do I do this, I cannot see any way to set it up. It appears only in the background. Am I missing something?

tchoklat
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] efrost:
Hi! Take a look to the first post. There is description how to configure programs launching by FTouchFlo. Thank you!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] hamstarz:
hey efrost:

I was wondering if you had figured out the problem with the disabled touchscreen coming out of unlock. I thought it may have something to do with the phone's unlock function, but when i tried using slide2unlock it also disabled the touchscreen and froze the program/phone when i tried to unlock. This just started happening to me with alpha4 and is the only thing right now preventing me from using it.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tchoklat:
Yeh, I see that. The file is already configured so it seems. Can someone post their config file to give me something to go on!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] ve39:
second that
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] efrost:
Hi! You don't have to use stylus to switch between modes. Down-up-down gesture still available. Icon is just for inforfmation...

Thank you!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] KarhU:
Noticed the same behavior with s2u2. After unlocking fTouchFlo icon turned red and screen irresponsive. I also put fTouchFlo a4 link to startup folder and notice randomly disabled screen upon boot. Down up down gesture does not work for me - I think I do something wrong :(.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] efrost:
Hi! I didn't notice it with current version... Yesterday night I've fixed bug causing this behavior (I hope), so you can try to download A4 once more and reinstall it with currently published version.

Also you can check Modified date of MouseEvent.exe. It should be 17.10.2007 00:40:54.

P.S. studying the code and trying to repeat this bug now... we'll see.

Thank you!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] psvillars:
hey i too have experienced this bug and it's not just s2u it's any program that runs full screen if you close it it will cause touchflo to lock the screen causing a reboot and the button idea is a great one but like others have said i would move it a bit and make it a bit bigger.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] zard:
After starting TouchFlo, how to stop it?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] efrost:
Hi! Only softreset. Thank you.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] sudist:
Hello efrost,

You're application is a must for the WM enviroment!

Still testing version 4 :) I like the icon, but love to see it in the TRAY. EDIT : WHEN THE ICON IS IN THE TRAY, IN A PROGRAMME I CAN'T TOGGLE!! So may be an hardwarebutton???

In version 1, 2 and 3, after a while my ASUS P535 becomes very slow. Screenupbild is sometimes 5 to 7 seconds!!

When I want to stop you're application (by killing it), my PDA isn't responding anymore :( , and the only way to solve this problem is a soft reset!

I see some times you're icon changing to D (DESACTIVATE) and would like to chose it myself.... and still using my PDA!

Thanks for this application and keep up the good work
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] marttin:
Alpha4 installed on Hermes WM6 and running for 5-6 hours - works perfectly.

Havent noticed any problem with unlock, as well with PocketCM (runs on full screen) - could be a device specific problem?

Personaly I am very happy with the icon the way it is - I switch between modes only using fingers :D

Great work Efrost
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Ronnymes:
I found a bug, when you startup Schap's Advanced Config Tool the touchscreen dousn't respond.

Except the hardware buttons, so you have to soft reset the device.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] simonte:
this is absolutely great news!

works great on my p3600 with WM5!

The icon is great, but if possible i would like to see it on the task bar (like pBar) or even better dont even see it, maybe you could implement a ''gesture'' kind of act/deactviation.

I also would like an easier way to add programs to the exception list.

CONGRATULATIONS FOR THE GREAT WORK!!!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] emch:
HI~

This app. really GREAT!!! :cool:

I'm using it in my HTC Touch. But it always call out the "TouchFlo" interface when scrolling. Can it be solved?

(this case won't appear in PocketCM...)

Thanks!!!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] efrost:
Hi! I don't know how original TouchFlo is integrated with system. I need HTC Touch in my hands to study how it works.

But I'll buy HTC Touch a bit later. :) I have to wait a bit to buy it from donations... I have there something around 15 euro so far! :D

P.S. Btw, why you need FTouchFlo on HTC Touch phone?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] dchkchung:
I have just installed the lastest cab file on my Trinity on WM6. After I did a soft reset and activated FTouchFlo, calibrate the screen, I can see a small dot on the top middle of the screen. But when I try to swipe my fingers all over, nothing happens.

Am I missing something?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] efrost:
Hi! I'm not sure. There are 6 threads in the FTouchFlo and of course it is possible that I've made a mistake sowewhere in the synchronization. I am trying to catch this error from yesterday night opening and minimizing different fullscreen applications (PocketCM, Slither2006's Flash Cube) together with turning screen on and off. It didn't happened even once so far. :confused:

If I'll not catch the deadlock it I'll have to redesign internal structure... :( there is no other way how to fix the problem.

Thank you!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] efrost:
Hi! Probably yes. This small dot is icon showing current mode:

"S" - scrolling, "L" - launching, "D" - deactivated.

You can still switch modes using gestures or you can press this icon with stylus.

Thanks.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] michd43:
Can't wait. Ive been waiting for something like this for months. Keep up the great work.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] michd43:
Hey generalriden, what cab are you using for the cube?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Merlin_reloaded:

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pctuner:

a solution to my trinity

hi ,

i've searched a long time to find a good solution to install touchflo on my trinity .

Your solution work well .

One think who is forget by other is to install before htc music pluggin .

It's the only think who change with other .

I don't know why is important too but it's ok

Thank's for your great job :)

I precise : the cube work only with button , not with touchscreen
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] generalriden:
regarding touchcube, were trying to find a solution so it will be touchscreen. only BYKA'S touchflo is touchscreen yet its using flash
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Daanmannetje:
Would love to use it on my O2 Stealth, because of the smaller screen it is almost impossible to use scrollbars without the stylus.

Can you tell me if this touchflo will work on this phone (it's not HTC, but it is WM5) or can I test it?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] efrost:
Hi! Could you, please, send me your touch.dll and I'll check if it will work or not. In case if there is WM5 and touch driver written as MS described in PlatformBuilder documentation - for 99.99999% it will work. :)

Alfa still not ready... :(
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] paulrockliffe:
Just a quick question, when you scroll through the contacts or whatever, it doesn't stop you from opening the contact with a tap or anything like that?

Looks really good mate, can't wait to be able to have a play with it!

Keep up the good work!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] finthamoussu:
Suggestion

Hi, first off all, I want to say this is COOL!!!

A feature that could be great for scrolling, would be that it handles scrolling as iContact does (after you drag, it keeps scrolling reducing speed, and if you tap again it inmediatly stops scrolling), and not just in contacts (like iContacts), in every control that supports scrolling (outlook, browser...). I think this is not so hard to implement.

In my opinion this will give the OS a GREAT look & feel, or may be, it could be an option for someone that doesn't want this behaviour.

And, one more thing: PLEASE RELEASE AN ALPHA !!!!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] ramontrotman:
i agree...please release an alpha! with a cherry on top!!! :)
