And in a stock TYTN II with no ROM update, like mine?

It works? Anyone have tested?

I don't want to update my ROM :(
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] lovdatreo:
hard to say. i have noticed that even when it does run it is extremely unreliable on the apache with any aku less than 0.7. on the BA it seemed to refuse to cooperate on any rom other than pv's aku 1.0.

on both devices with less than aku.7 (aku 1.0 on ba) it would seem to work but quickly deteriorate randomly after a few soft resets
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Raven_coda:
I've been working with Kona_Mtbkr and I've decided to post a alpha version of the HTC Cube that should be free of the blanks screen problems and run much faster. Kona_Mtbkr is working with efrost to make the final release so this here is just an alpha. Let me know if it doesn't work for you. It's a stand alone cab so if you shouldn't have the cube already installed. If you do you'll need to uninstall it first. Let me know if you have any questions. Once Kona_Mtbkr releases his version it should trump this, his will allow for more advanced features and better intigration with efrost's FTouchFlo.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] sl_uk2:
it works

hi there i have tried all the cabs and have not got it to spin with yours first time

this is great cant wait for the final

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] duttythroy:
Great work again mate hopefully tonight we will see the final version.:)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Nadavi:
Hey Great work!!!!!

Finally working with Kaiser.

Now all we need is Cube Customizer - Change the links+images of the cube.

Thanks!

Nadavi
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Raven_coda:
Was that a proggy on the elf? If so I'm sure we can round it up and include it in the cab. If not then most likely one can be made. I know the links can be changed in the reg. Let me know if it already exists or not so I can start work on it.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] The_hesham:
Where I can find any release Alpha1, 2 & 3

Is this working with Hima
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Raven_coda:
Look in post #44 bro
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] hyann:
finally a working version

thanks a lot bro

works fine

however i wonder if applications can be put on the cube?

or just contacts and pre-installed links?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] motisu:
Works on my BA!!!!! Fantastic work!!

Kudo's to all three of you!! now all we need is a bit of speed and a cofigurator and we will have a complete app!

My hat's tipped to all of you.:)

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Kona_Mtbkr:
Actually guys, there already is one configuration app for the cube already ... see the thread here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=324556

I had this installed from before, and it works fine for me. You used to have to make sure to remove the MediaHubMini.lnk file that it installs in the Startup folder ... but with Raven_coda's alpha and my next release, that's not even the case. In fact ... that shortcut in the Startup will make the mediahubmini load fast even the first time you bring it up.

Check out Touch Settings. Config the graphics and links for ApLauncher ... and the links for MediaHubMini. Doesn't do anything for QuickDialer though ...
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Kona_Mtbkr:
* My original incorrect statement *

Actually, I believe the Elf came with an app named BioTouch Settings, with an exe name of CustomMediaHub.exe in the Windows folder. One of the original alpha TouchFlo installers has the shortcut, but I can't find the app anywhere.

* Correct version *

CustomMediaHub was just the early version of Touch Settings by carlosp_uk. So is there anything on the Elf to customize these ... not sure. Maybe time to post over with my friends on the Elf forum and see if someone has input on this.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] GiGiSSiMo:
It works, works and... yes, works :D

For translating and for changing apps i've changed reg's key entries, and... works!!! (in italian and with htc camera album for photo and video).

Just a question: in contacts i can see only outlook contacts and no the phone sim ones :( Is there a workaround?

Thanks a lot for your great work!!!

.NET Framework?

Is it going to require .NET 2.0 for the WM5 users? :cool:
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] duttythroy:
Hi mate i have cooked in the touch settings in my next upcoming rom it works the cube even works quicker when cooked in that Raven_Coda posted onle the picture of the applauncher doesnt show.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Raven_coda:
I could be wrong but I don't beleive so. All that apps that I saw that required it are now removed.

Oh wait, the customizer app looks like it needs it, you might get away with no .net if you don't install the customizer.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] toyjeep:

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] jaygriggs:
wow

wow I've been following this and I've had no success with the other alpha cabs but now its working flawlessly! I have the kaiser running the ie big storage rom. donations will be coming!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] wacky.banana:
Raven_Coda et al,

Had to soft reset a couple of times but I am pleased to report that this works perfectly on a HTC TyTN (Hermes).

Its an alpha so I won't complain; however couple of minor issues. I noticed that for some reason my 6 button comm manager had been reduced to 4. Also one has to be careful at which point one spins the cube else you end up opening an application rather than spinning the cube.

I noticed that the time for opening apps was a little slow; however I do have my PDA set so that each app closes down fully, not minimised. I guess that if I were to run the apps as minimised then speed would increase significantly.

Please take all this in context; these are minor issues, given that this is an alpha. The good thing is that it jolly well works!!

Congratulations guys, for some hard work. I will be back here later to check on progress and, maybe, sight of the final version. :)

For those who may be interested, I ran the cube with S2U2 also in place, with no conflicts.

Now what would be really interesting, once a full version is released, is to develop a cube where you can attach your own applications of choice, rather than the standard items. I would just love to have, say TomTom or my own choice of music and video players attached to and run off the cube. I guess this is phase 2 stuff.

Cheers

WB
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] ItsRST:
Thank you all - Great application.

It is working on my Tilt, but I do have one question. I see three sides to the cube. How many sides are there suppose to be?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] KarhU:
Original cube only has three sides - Contacts, Launcher and Media. There is no more pages available at the moment (this is a port of the original Cube, maybe you can add it as a feature request ;) )
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] GLO:
That are the pro's and con's of this cube app over the flash lite apps that others are cooking?

How do they compare memory wise?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] JudgeDredd67:
No one will know until the dust settles. I have both installed and both run on my Tytn. The flash versions seem lots quicker at the moment but much harder to configure and set up contacts. I think by the time they are both done this version will require less space and resources just because the flash versions require flash lite to be running. I am also sure that this version will speed up once the bugs get squashed and clean up gets done.

These are just my own observations. They are all in development stages right now so just sit back and enjoy the ride.

PS. Thank you to all the developers of these wonderful works. I will be kick'en some bucks your way.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] The_hesham:
Thanks kona & Raven_coda

It works ver fine

Remarks

1- Slow

2- When press the icons, then close the icon application u find the Today screen.

To use the cube u hv 2 gesture up agian. Could it be back 2 cube after closing the app icon used (if not possible, fine)

3- Icons Fonts 4 the Email, sms, internet exp.....etc. is very small Could it be more big.

4- HTC today plug in tabs reduced from 6 to 5 tabs. The one disapear is the contact tab. I tried to customize it agian but no way.

I will try the setting cab as Kona mention here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=324556

I tried it but it App launcher screen it is not here, I'm trying 2 solve it with him

Thanks 4 the fantastic works

htc cube

Hi

Using the htc cube posted by Raven Coda on HTC Tytn II works great

but i noticed that after i installed the app i could not calibrate my screen when you try to press the stylys it just freezes and you have to do a reset

removed the cube - recalibrated no problem put it back and it will not allow you to callibrate just freezes.

not a big problem

great work , any news on final release

steven
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] xplode:
The cube works fine here

Device: Blueangel

OS: WM6 Pro 5.2.1933 Build 18533.0.7.0

Waiting for beta release

You can include Random Access for contacts (it depends on biotouch.exe) and also Action screen, some configuration utilities for the cube and for the ftouchflo

Keep up with the good work
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] motisu:
I tried running Random Access but it isn't working on my BA (your ROM) even though the cube is working just fine. It works on your BA?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Kona_Mtbkr:
I didn't necessarily think that this was the case. I'm not aware of any particular dependency of RandomAccess on Biotouch. It's working on my Kaiser even without the biotouch process running.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Kona_Mtbkr:
This is a known issue with FTouchFlo. It pretty seriously takes over all control of pen input ... and therefore calibrate will not work after FTouchFlo has been started up. Also, just terminating the FTouchFlo process will not help either ... once started, the only way to return to "normal" pen input is to reset without FTouchFlo in Startup.

At least, that's what I've heard from the FTouchFlo thread
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] le_cactus:
Hi,

Will a final version work outside the cube again? With the current Cubelink.exe a second parameter (in FTouchFlow settings) seems to be ignorged. I like being able to minimize programs with a up-down gesture outside the cube.

Besides that, great (really great!) work. Thanks!

Cheers,

Cacti
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Kona_Mtbkr:
Absolutely it will! Raven_coda's version was based on the same concept as mine for controlling the cube (we basically compared notes on this). He released his version to prove how fast it can be written in C++, but it didn't have all the bells and whistles as mine.

I have ported mine to C++ ... and man is it faster! :D The ability to launch other apps outside the cube is still there, as well as built-in methods for minimizing or closing the current app, which can be tied to a gesture (I use it on UD swipe!)

Things are looking good for a beta release on this thread of the app itself. I'm leaving the cab installer up to dutty for now, it seems to be his specialty :D I'll update the main posts when my beta is ready, and when I hear that dutty has included it in a cab.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Kona_Mtbkr:
Additional Features?

Also ... I've just sort of added features that I thought would be cool ... and/or a few that I had requests for. Besides control of the cube using the DPad (I've heard the request ... but this one requires a little research) ... is there anything else people can think of to add as far as cube control functionality is concerned? Maybe PM me if you have ideas ... put "TFloCube Features" in the subject so I know ... and I'll make a list and post them for people to vote on, or something like that.

The upcoming C++ beta will have the following:

TFloCubeCtrl.exe <Command> <App_2> <Param_2>

Command line options:

Parameter #1: <Command> - These are the command options that are used when the cube is running, with the exception of open, which always runs the cube open animation

open = Open the cube with animation

close = Close the cube with animation

spinLeft = Spin the cube to the left with animation

spinRight = Spin the cube to the right with animation

Parameter #2: <App_2> - This is the application or "special" command to run when you are not currently on a cube face

openSpinLeft = Open the cube and spin left with animation

openSpinRight = Open the cube and spin right with animation

minimizeApp = Minimize the current application

closeApp = Close the current application

{Path to exe or lnk} = This application will be run

Parameter #3: <Param_2> - This is a parameter that will be passed to the application that is executed in <App_2>
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] littld:
More ideas

I think it would be cool to have another side for more apps or settings. As it is now, you can only have a few apps to launch. Being able to have more per side AND another side offers more possibilities.

In fact, why not make it a real cube and have 6 sides. The animation would look fantastic!

One side for contact photos, one for media apps, a couple for applications, maybe one to replace the comms manager. Build in a clock and some media player controls and I'd rarely need to leave the cube!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] le_cactus:
Wow, it just keeps getting better! I won't use the closeApp however, or will your programm use the ignore list from the ftouchflo seetings file?

If it doesn't it might crash wm as some apps shouldn't be close....

Cheers,

Cacti
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] ranj9119:
does this work on VGA*device 2? a device like Athena, a big one , lol
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Kona_Mtbkr:
The typical cube setup were talking about here has FTouchFlo calling my app, which then interacts with the cube, or I've added the ability to do "other things" if the cube isn't currently in the foreground. So by that nature ... my app sort of does use the FTouchFlo ignore list, because my app is never called by FTouchFlo in those apps that FTouchFlo is being ignored in. Make sense?

Also, to close ... I just send the standard WM_CLOSE message. If an app *really* shouldn't be closed ... shouldn't it handle this message better? I'm not forcing anything closed.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Kona_Mtbkr:
RE: Features

Oh ... and I'm not sure that anyone cares much anymore with FTouchFlo ... but I'm including shortcuts that you can map to hardware buttons to spin the cube left and right. Might be neat to map to buttons on the left and right of your device? I guess I can make ones for up and down too.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] GiGiSSiMo:
Same problem here with kaiser :(

Uninstalling cube tabs are 6 again...
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] le_cactus:
Yup, that makes sence. I could (and should) have figured that out myself.

Anyways, thanks again,

Okay, here is my experience with this.....

Was using Starbase64's 3.62/9 rom with Slithers flash cube. Which worked 100%.

However, i thought i'd try this new official cube...

i installed schaps latest and greatest rom 4.01 which i've used the earlier versions of for ages....

Installed the cube from the cab along with the activate app. Rebooted and whay hey, it just works.... :D

You two should really use the search (forum or google) and you can find what you need. Here's a freebie: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=342314
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Kona_Mtbkr:
Thanks fb401 ... I was just looking this up to answer it for like the fifth time :D
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Kona_Mtbkr:
Good question. Haven't heard specifically ... and I really kind of doubt it. The cube doesn't even run in landscape mode, and with the graphics files it uses ... I kinda doubt it will run on a VGA device.

This would be a restriction of the cube itself, not the interface to it ... so don't request it as a feature!:) Seriously though, at this point ... I'm just thinking about features we can build into the cube interface ... not really the cube itself. To rebuild the cube would be a whole 'nother project. Some have talked about it ... not sure if anyone has done much. To achieve the level of integration with audio manager and contacts page would be a bit challenging I imagine.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] GiGiSSiMo:
I apologize for my post.

Usually i use google search with "site:" option, but in this case i thought that nobody would open a new thread having a problem after installation of cube. This is the cube thread or not?

No more words, only apologize again.

Do u know fb401 how to see also sim contacts by pressing add button in quick dial selection?

Thanks in advance.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] aaronsmckee:
I really hope you guys pull this off, for us hermes uses the flash based cubes are great apps but it would be awesome to have a non flash solution (and heck we can start adding better functionality than what the standard cube offers). Speaking of which have you contacted Slither to see if he would be intrested in helping, I know he has been doing some great work and it might be a fruitful collaboration.

C++ Version

Runs soooooooo much faster, I can't believe it. C# is sure easy to write ... but comes no where near C++ in performance.

C++ version is looking good ... beta should be released tonight!

Great job again mate:)

Beta Release v1.0.4 Available

Whew ... beta release finally available. Runs oh so well for me, I almost couldn't ask it to be faster ... and that's not even in ROM!

Installation text file updated, Readme updated, new shortcuts provided for integration with hardware buttons (also so much faster than the "old" way)

For those of you who only look at the end of the thread ... link is on post #1. Check it out ... I'm getting some sleep now!

beta

HI there well done on the beat release i know you need some sleep.

i have downloaded the beta just wondered as there is no cab how do you install on the device. i am currently using the one posted by dutty

steven
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Kona_Mtbkr:
In the zip archive, there is a file named "TFloCubeCtrl - Installation.txt". It should tell you all you need to know. It's very easy to swap in a different cube controller app, if you had my previous C# version or Raven_Coda's version ... you can just replace them with my latest, update the FTouchFlo config, and you're good to go. No need to remove or reinstall the cube if it's already working. You'll see the speed improvement right away ... no need to SR even really! :)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] sl_uk2:
many thanks

many thanks i have rave_codas and it work can you just confirm which files i should replace

steven

i will be donating to your good cause
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] ^^rac:
Upload!

Can someone upload it here / megaupload?

Thanks alot guys!!

Im interested to check this cube out!!!

(also, can one add the contact pics and everything on this cube version??)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Kona_Mtbkr:
Well, I think Raven_coda said to put his stuff in a "Touch Flo" folder in "\Program Files". Really it doesn't matter. If you want to use one of my provided FTouchFloConfig.txt files (recommended) ... then you'll just create a "\Program Files\TFloCube" folder, and copy TFloCubeCtrl.exe into it (overwrite the old C# one if you had it from before). Then, in "\Program Files\Touch Flo", update the FTouchFloConfig.txt with one of the files from my archive ... it's your choice as to whether you want LR, RL gestures outside of cube to bring the cube back up spinning, or launch other apps (and you can change from RandomAccess and Total Commander). Make sure to rename the file you copy to FTouchFloConfig.txt.

That's the minimum. FTouchFlo picks up changes when you update the config. All gestures should now use my new app! For preloading apps for faster startup on SR, or for link to hardware buttons, read the Readme file!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Kona_Mtbkr:
Updated in Post #1
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] ^^rac:
Thanks alot!

Im checking it out now!!

I may also donate! Thanks for the good work!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Kona_Mtbkr:
It works so well for me ... very snappy and responsive to animate. Minimize / close any app (not ignored by FTouchFlo) is kinda fun! Guess I could've built in the same concept as efrost's "Minimize All". Mine just does a minimize the current app. Hmm, just created my own next enhancement request maybe :)

OK, seriously going to bed now ... enjoy you who stayed up late for this, or I guess whatever timezones that it's a "normal" hour to be right now :D
