anyone got this working on a treo 700wx?

I have tried to get this working on the treo but still cannot get it to work properly. it appears to work fine until I hit the red power button to turn off the screen and then freezes up and requires a soft reset to get the touchscreen working again. anyone figured out a fix yet?

efrost, is there anything you recommend or is this a recognized issue with the treo and are you working on a fix for this issue???

thanks! i need this program to work!!

How Can I changes the folder of music, photos and videos? I change other part i.e. contact, ie and all it is ok...

Thx
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] KarhU:
If you tried the launcher function and it is not working it is because you do not have the programs that shortcuts in ftouchflo config refer to installed.

Out of box lefttoright gesture should work - it points to messaging.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] efrost:
Hi! Very very strange... I didn't found anything what might cause touch-pad freezing after wake up, but I know about this problem and I'm trying to found and fix it.

Bad thing is that I have only my Trinity and I can't try FTouchFlo on any other device. :( Everything is made based on my imagination how other devices should work and this imagination not all the time correct, I think. :)

I am going to add "debug mode" for issues like this, so, in future it will be easier to understand what's going on.

Thank you!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] efrost:
Hi! I think that problem is "how" you're trying to use it.

Try to do following:

1. in FTouchFloConfig.txt set Delay:10000

2. Save file (don't save in Word format if Word will ask you!)

3. Open mail or text messages.

4. Try to scroll starting from the middle of screen - put your finger or stylus (better stylus because it's much more precise) and try to scroll like you're dragging the contents... I mean, it works not as scroll bar but in opposite direction.

If it'll be working, it would mean that you're starting scrolling not immediately after you've touched the screen.

Change Delay parameter to 500 and try once more.

I use Delay:100 and it works all the time... but I have a lot of experience working with FTouchFlo :D

Thank you!

P.S. I have Trinity, so it works on Trinity for 100% !!! :)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] efrost:
Hi to all!

Just to notice, I'm reading all your questions and trying to find and fix all your problems. I just don't have time to answer all questions.

So, If you'll not find my answer, anyway, try next version. With high probability your problem will be solved. If it is not solved in new version, remind me one more...

I'm really trying to fix each problem even if I'm not answering your questions!

Thank you!

I do not quite understand what do you mean but to make the cube work you need to use the flash cube from this thread.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] vorlon01:
left to right - right to left

I installed to my sprint ppc6700 - this works flawless (including the cube) my only problem is the Left->right: 0% work & Right->left: 0% work. Yes I have configured the text file any ides?? All functions work as described (after configuration).

thanks

I got it working - this is sweet

Great program. Got one bug with the Excludes list.

If I'm using a program which is in my excludes list it works fine. If I leave PhatPad as the active app then hit the standby button to turn the device off (hermes) then back on. Slide2Unlock loads (this is also in my exclude list) I do the slidy thing then it will go back to PhatPad (the excluded app). Now PhatPad will scroll using touchflo while I'm trying to draw on screen which it shouldn't be doing. If I close the app and load it again it works fine.

Anyone else experience this?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Xue v.2:
great job, efrost! this application is really really helpfull, now my PPC is completely styli-free! Nice work!

and oh,

FTouchFlo 1.41 been tested on Eten M600, wich is non-HTC PDA Phone, and it works flawlessly.

I'm still looking forward for more gestures launch, say, diagonal =)

nice work!

really appreciate it!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] efrost:
Hi! Will not be like this in 1.5. Already fixed. Thank you!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] eighty82:
Do you have Touch Flo for Dummies? I'm computer savy, but i don't want to mess up my phone. I love this interface.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] matthew232:
That would be great! Can't wait to get this working on the treo! Anyone using a treo got this to work yet?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] medkid:
I use v1.4.1, sometimes it caused the device's screen mixed up. At that time, I want to align screen, but can't point the point of the screen alignment, so I have to do a soft reset, can this be fixed in next version, efrost ? Can I align my screen anytime I want ? or, can it not cause screen mixed up anymore ?

Thanks for the great stuff, far from better than touchFlo in my opinion. :)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] efrost:
Hi! It is written in the "known issues" section: you can't start MS Calibration when FTouchFlo is running. You have to softreset first to unload FTouchFlo.

Thank you!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] efrost:
Hi! Not really understand you. Could you, please, describe more precisely which functionality you need and what you don't need? :-\

Thank you!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] KarhU:
He want something very easy to use preferably with simple interface - maybe he wants some GUI for settings because there is nothing complicated with fTouchFlo. He wants to try it without any risk of something going bad, I am just not sure how can he mess up the phone, because fTouchFlo can be uninstalled with no consequences. Just my 2 cents....
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Yod-b:
first, thank you for making this software, it's awesome. i have only one problem... i cannot launch other softwares with the gestures... i have a vario II, official htc wm6... is there any idea what the problem should be?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] efrost:
Hi! Probably you have the same problem as lots of people here. Try to set up GestureWaitingDelay:10000 and try to run something. If it will be working, it would mean that you're not starting moving your finger immediately after you've touched the screen.

Thank you!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Yod-b:
thank you for the fast answer... but it didnt help... any other idea?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] mischike:
Hi,

i have the Eten Glofiish X500+ with VGA and after installation i have only a little icon on the top of the screen without function. Any ideas?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] mikhe69:
I have a question, that maybe someone already asked, but from the search I didn't find:(

When I'm in the today screen with every apps closed, and make the gesture to the efrostMinimize.exe, it will open alot of apps, and sometimes it frozees my trinity. Is this a documented bug?

By the way, Thank you so much Efrost for this amazing software.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Mirko86:
It's ok

It's works all but I don't succeed in putting as directed "path" connection a folder instead .exe

thx

slide to unlock : background funcitonality seem to be incompatible with FTouchFlo

I installed recently Slide 2 Unlock program. I configured the slide.exe file to not close. (it will stay in background (hidden) after unlock)

I excluded Slide.exe and iLock.exe in the ftouchfloconfig file

Exclude Slide.exe

Exclude iLike.exe

the first time the process started, the exclude work well. events are masked.

but the second time Exclude is not working I am able to minimize the slide application !

If I disable the background option (the Slide.exe is closed after each unlock)

every thing works well.

is FTouchFlo incompatible with hidden windows after activate them ?!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Auron:
Great!

Hi there! Greetings from Brazil!

Last version (1.4.1) working perfectly in my G-smart i300!

Still did not test program launcher. However, scrolling is perfect!

Thanks, efrost!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] evojulz:
Make sure you are using the latest Minimize.exe from post 50 of this thread. The previous one would try to minimize the today screen but I haven't heard of it opening apps.

BTW efrost, I got this working on a colleagues HP iPAQ rx4200, he's stoked, so you can add that to the list of successes ;)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] freddex:
Have you tried htc 'x'button or wktask? Maybe those can help.

I happened to realise when make the gesture to the efrostMinimize.exe in the today screen, both top and bottom bars changes. There's this 'menu' sign appears at the lower right corner showing test1, 2 3 and popup> which does nothing.

Wonder what are those for??
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Larry Brent:
Minimizing applications is not the best idea.

Always better closing the applications, so you free up a lot of memory.

Disadvantage is that you need more time to (re)open an application.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] danielem600:
really??? when message or missed call notification arrive ftouchflo doesn't crash?

and when system notification arrive?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Charlie Mouse:
Internet Explorer Scrolling

First off, let me say how great this program is, it's exactly what my Hermes needed!

I am using 1.41 and it works perfectly except in Internet Explorer. Horizontal scrolling works as expected but vertical scrolling appears to scroll by page not line. It works the same as if you tap on an empty part of the scroll bar instead of tapping one of the scroll arrows. I've tried keeping my finger on the screen and scrolling a small amount but it makes no difference.

Sorry if this has been mentioned before but I read through all the posts and couldn't find anything.

Cheers.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] CWKJ:
Oh there is a new one here.

Was still hanging in the Alpha 4 thread :D
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] watson540:
you are not alone in this problem. I too experience the same thing. its the only thing holding this app back from being perfect..especially since I use PIE those most out of any apps
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Charlie Mouse:
I've just done some more playing and it seems that switching to landscape mode and back fixed the vertical scroll problem. Don't know why if that is what definitely did it but it is scrolling smoothly now. I will continue playing to see if I can replicate it.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Charlie Mouse:
Right, it stopped working again and switching between landscape and portrait mode didn't help :(
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] efrost:
Hi! It is one of interesting issues I've noticed and not only with IE... I think it depends on available memory - when you have a lot of memory, scrolling works "by line" but wen you don't have enough memory or processor is overloaded scrolling works "by page". I am working on it, so, probably I'll solve this.

One more interesting thing with IE I've noticed: scrolling works smoother and faster at the top of page and slower and less smoother at the bottom of page :-\ Strange behavior and it's not caused by FTouchFlo.

FTouchFlo sends scroll line-by-line all the time.

So, I know about this problem and working on it.

Thank you!

Im using my M600 as a mini office, not phone, I mean, fully functioning it as a PDA, but only use the phone functionality to connect me to the internet, because you know, M600 is a stable GOD of PDA, but a trash of phone.

But, I tested it. Just now.

I called my M600 using my other phone and leave a misscall notification, sms it, system notify it with IM+ message flood, and I found no trouble. Still work like charm with FTouchFlo installed.

I dunno with M600+, but my ROM's M600 225 WWE

HI e frost,

How can I install this program on my HTC P3300.

What is the process to install it?

Thanks a lot for your reply.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Xue v.2:
PIE is the 2nd default application I replaced on my PDA, the first one is the crappy default file explorer.

Im using opera 8.6 as internet browser. I found that opera 8.6 is not affected by FTouchFlo, even it isn't excluded on the config. But now, Opera Software released Opera 8.65 which has a new feature "grab and scroll". Tried it and yes, it support finger scroll now.

Cheers!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] leelouch:
euhh no idea on that problem ?!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] 200mpx:
efrost

There is a nice, small and free app here:

http://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=49304&view=findpost&p=951489

for hand-written notes with alarms etc.

The problem is that it is nearly impossible to use it even if the exe file is in FTouchFlo exeption file. Could you please take a look at this app and say what it wrong and if the bug is on your side or ScreenWriter side.

Thak you in advance!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Charlie Mouse:
Ah, I hadn't thought of looking at processor load or memory! That might explain why it's intermittent. Thanks for a great app and keep up the good work :)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] danielem600:
tnx Xue!

efrost Pliz help me!!!!

When my eten m600+ need resources kill some application :(

But when kill ftouchflo my touch screen doesen’t work :(

If i try to kill manually ftouchflo and the behaviour is the same, touch screen doesn’t work :(
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] efrost:
Hi!

Your touch screen doesn't work if FTouchFlo process killed - it is normal behavior. It is described in readme... and it is not possible to change... at least for now. May be in far future...

Strange that system is trying to kill it. :-\ Do you have some special application for this or it is done by Windows?

Thank you!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] gemblaster:
That looks like a VERY good app! Could you PLEASE post a English link for the same?? I can not find one and I can't read Russian:( (I think that is what it is in)

Thank you, would love to use this too:D .

no i don't have special appòications. i'll try to install ftpuchflo on telephon memory.

congratulation for your application it is fantastic!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] 200mpx:
The problem is that application is developing by a russian guy and there is no other site where you can find it (perhaps he is not speaking english)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] gemblaster:
He did show the code on his site, it would be REAL nice if someone could just put in ENGLISH font in place of the Russian in the apps code and release a English version:D ! Wish I knew how but I don't:( .

Know anyone who can do this and could ask his permision unless he already gave it when he released the source code?

Wow this application is the hammer:D

Please - an english or better multilingual version!

Version 1.5

Hey hey efrost.... When are you going to release the glorious 1.5 version so I can give you a much needed donation ;)....
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] efrost:
Hi! I have to solve a lot of things, as you can see from this thread. Most of them already done, but I am still trying to find out why application hangs sometimes.

Also today I've got new issue (see 2-3 posts above): on ETEN m600+ windows kills FTouchFlo process when there is no available memory, so touchscreen becomes not working.

Hope that this week 1.5 will be finished. :)

Thank you!

You may want to try Hybernate, it simulates an out of memory event.. didn't experience it, and I didn't test neither, but maybe it will act the same.

As there was no feedback from you I will ask again: could you please take a look at this app because it seems that FTF still working if the app is in exception list.

The app is attached
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] freddex:
Hi efrost

Does this one app going to fit all different device types?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] efrost:
Hi! I saw your request, but for now I didn't succeeded with this app. It uses some not usual way of working with touch screen... It is excluded normally, but it receives events from touch panel much slower if FTouchFlo is running.

I'll try to do something, but I would recommend to use PhatPad since it works fine instead :) or move your stylus slooowly :D

Thank you!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] efrost:
Hi! Of course not! It'll not work on microwave ovens or insulin pumps, for example. :D

Seriously, it should (is or will) work on any xDA device with touch screen and Windows Mobile 5 and 6. :)

Thank you!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] 200mpx:
Thank you! Will talk also with SW developer to find a way to use both apps.

PhatPad is much bigger, not a freeware and do not have lot of features of SW
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] freddex:
lol... you are great! so are FTFlo!

Still hoping Excel will work someday, but please take your time.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] efrost:
Ok. I can't promise, but I'll try to contact developer too :) I speak Russian, so for me it's not a problem to discuss a bit with him....

Thank you!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] 200mpx:
Great! It is very nice that you speak Russian! Hope you will find together a reason of this bug.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] danielem600:
hi efrost,

i have intalled ftpuchflo on telephon memory and it forks fine!!!!!

i think my SD is too slow :(

thaks for your support!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] efrost:
Hi! Thank you for this report. It means, that I should change the way how to apply new settings. For now, FTouchFlo rereads configuration each time you're switching from one application to another.

Next version will come with different implementation of configuration...

Thanks a lot!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] mikhe69:
Hi Efrost,

Regarding slow scrolling have you looked this?

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=1585918&postcount=1081

With this file the slow scrolling is fixed, and maybe the page scroll also.

Thanks for this great app of yours.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] efrost:
Just tried it... Didn't notice any difference. Sometimes IE and outlook starting scrolling "by page" instead of "by line" even if I press arrow button on the scroll bar. :(

Thank you!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] r0cky_f:
is it normal to scroll down on today screen and get a black screen??

i read the config file and it seems scroll down gestures means minimize the flash lite. and then when it comes to today screen, it has nothing to minimize. am i correct? is there any workaround to this issue?

after all, this is a great program bro.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] lastnikita:
Does someone know a simple application able to act the same as the Ok button, when that one is hidden ?

VJOkButt can do it, but it simulates a click on Ok which is not visible with my layout, so it won't work.

Other softs I've heard about do only close the current task, or minimize it... I need to *validate*, ie trigger system default action.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] 200mpx:
I know only Indibar2 where you can find CloseApp and CloseAll shortcuts
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] efrost:
Hi! Already mentioned here a lot of times:

you shouldn't use efrostsMinimize.exe in FTouchFlo configuration since it will minimize your desktop. Use Minimize.exe I've published on 7th or 8th page of this thread.

Also there is nothing with minimizing Flash. Slither's Cube calls efrostsMinimize.exe itself and here is nothing connected with FTouchFlo.

Thankyou!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] DJ_Nitro:
First of all, Efrost thank you, awesome program.

Any chance to have lnks support for the launcher in future releases?

Close Apps with UpDown command

If anyone wants to close an app by using the updown command, I use VJOkButt. It's really small in size. Just unzip it, create a new folder called close and place it under program files.:)

I'm a little bit lost about this Touch Cube stuffs.

I have HP HW 6915 as you now it is Window Mobile 5

I tried to setup Touch Commander and it didn't work.

Now what should i do to have something like HTC Touch.

Thanks for your concern
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] piratedninja:
does this work with wm6 on the 6700?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] KarhU:
This thread is not about Touch Cube - this thread deal with finger scrolling in apps and launching programs by swiping your finger on the screen - in all the programs not just the cube. As far as I know Touch Cube has not been ported to square screen device yet - even flash ports that are available here.

fTouchFlo is NOT a TOUCH CUBE - it provides finger scrolling capability to all windows containing scroll bar.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] KarhU:
It should work with all PDAs with WM5/6. Try and you will see. If it does not work just soft reset your device and uninstall the app. fTouchFlo does not overwrite any system files, or write anything into the registry so it is safe to try.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] piratedninja:
just tried it out and it doesnt work for me
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Knightro:
Please consider also compatibility with O2 Flame. It hangs and slows down my Flame. Simple accidental stroke of stylus also activates FTouchFlo.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] KarhU:
Then write about the issue to efrost... It works on most of the devices and he works on expanding the base of supported devices - so chances are you will be able to use it in the future.
