Hola, Alfonso.

Gran aplicación y con un gran potencial, pero me gustaría hacerte una sugerencia: unificar el config.xml y el skin.xml en un solo archivo de configuración.

Me explico: aunque la utilidad de configuración permite cambiar el skin, si tú instalas, por ejemplo, un theme de gullum, después es imposible volver al theme por defecto si el nuevo no te ha gustado, porque el config.xml del nuevo theme ha sobreescrito el anterior y la ruta a los enlaces sigue siendo la del nuevo theme. Hay que desinstalarlo obligatoriamente para volver al theme por defecto o cualquier otro.

Si unificas los archivos de configuración en uno solo, nombrándolos de la forma "default.xml", "iphone.xml", "htc_home.xml"...el usuario podría cambiar de theme a su gusto, solo seleccionando el deseado en la utilidad de configuración.

Otra cuestión a considerar sería el incluir en todos los themes un enlace a la utilidad de configuración. Actualmente sólo lo lleva el theme por defecto.

Creo que esos cambios multiplicarían la usabilidad de tu aplicación.

Gran trabajo. Un saludo.

Hi, Alfonso.

Great application with great potential, but I would like make you a suggestion: to join config.xml and skin.xml into only one file.

I'll explain it: although the config utility allows changing the skin, if you install, in example, a theme by gullum, then it's impossible to return to the default theme if you don't like the new theme, because the config.xml file of the new theme has overwrite the previous file and the path to the links is still from the new theme. It's mandatory uninstall it to return to the default theme or any other.

If you join the config files into a only one, naming it as "default.xml", "iphone.xml", "htc_home.xml"...the user could change the theme his way, only selecting the desired one in the config utility.

Another question to consider would be including a link to the config utility into all themes. Nowadays only the default theme include it.

I think those changes could multiply the usability of your application.

Great work. Regards.

Nostramo

I've a surprise for the next release ;). It's not what you ask, but may be it solves a little your requisite. By the way, my vacations have ended :(, so the development is going to be a lot slower... sorry...

La verdad es que ya le estaba dando vueltas al tema, no creo que sea tanto unificar el skin y el config como añadir un xml mas....

- Skin.xml: información de visualización...

- Setup.xml: el actual config.xml. Tendrá referencias al skin a usar.

- Config.xml: indicará cual es el Setup que se usa.

De esta manera se pueden desarrollar skins de manera separada y además el usuario puede selecionar la visualización que quiera para un conjunto de páginas que se haya descargado...

Respecto al enlace a configuración, estoy deacuerdo. De todas formas esto depende de la persona que hace el tema en concreto. Lo que sí estoy pensado hacer es dar una manera alternativa de ejecutar la configuración de manera que aunque no se incluya el enlace en el tema por lo menos se pueda ejecutar desde otro lado.

Muchas gracias por tus comentarios!!

Un saludo

------------------------------------------------------

I've already been thinking of that, but I think it's not about merging skin and config file but to add a new XML....

- Skin.xml: visualization information...

- Setup.xml: the current config.xml. With references to skin.

- Config.xml: will reference the setup to use.

This way the skins can be developed independently and the user can choose what ever skin he likes for the downloaded setup....

About the link to configuration, I agree. Any way that depends of the developer of the setup. What I'm thinking is adding an alternative way to execute the config tool so that if the configuration link is not included on setup, it can be run throught outher way.

Thanks a lot for your comments!!

Now I'm verry excited :D and don't worry about development being slower. maybe you get better time to think when not working to hard on developing :D

Won't the original code for the Programs row work for what you are trying to accomplish?

<row rows="3" marginX="5" marginY="5">
<separator name="Programs"></separator>
<folder path="HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Explorer\CrossPlatformNavigationURL" zoom="1" name="Programs" recursive="true"/>
</row>

It displays nicely, regardless of language. And it even shows sub-folders. Unless of course, you're trying to achieve something different. Please do share.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] JamesAllen:
Maintain Interest

This is an excellent effort by you to produce a valuable program. I, like many others, don't see the need for FTouchFlo and the Cube. Don't get me wrong, they are "bleeding edge" applications and nice looking, but the reality is that, once you get into a non-Touch application (and most of them are), you need the stylus anyway (or very tiny fingernails). So what we are looking for is a nice "launcher" that is very finger friendly and scrollable.

ThrottleLauncher is all of that. My only caution to you, as an avid proponent for your work, is that you not let this fade away. I think Freestyl is an example of one that is similar to yours and appears to have died away. I know you have a real life, as all of us do, and you can't spend a great deal of time developing for us. But please continue to keep this project current. In my time here I have seen many projects launched with a great deal of energy and interest, then fade away.

Please keep up the great work.

I have my folder on storage card

I even try to create new registry and change config to pick my registry still same error. FYI running program applet never works for me as well (KAISER)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] JonathanWarrick:
I know it's been mentioned but I haven't seen an official reply to the question. Any plans of including the today screen plug-in so we won't have to launch this? That would completely sell me and get me off of HTC. Thanks for the great work on this! It's coming along amazingly well and when I have time to really play with the options and customizations, I'm sure I'll be even more impressed.

And thanks for the skins too! Those look great as well!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] APBilbo:
Thanks! I'm not planning of leaving the project. As I said it will slow down cause I've ended my vacations, but I'll keep working! ;).

Mmmmm.... That's strange since that code is using native system calls to get the icons.... Anyway I'm planning to implement a logging system so that all this errors I can't reproduce have some more info... With the info I have (ofcourse it's not your fault I don't have more ;) ) can't figure out what's happening... sorry.

Could you try to create a folder (for example \Myfolder\) and add only one lnk file inside and try to add something like:

<folder path="\Myfolder" zoom="1" name="Programs" recursive="false"/>

Just to test if it a particular file problem or it's a general integration bug on your device.

Thanks and sorry for the inconvenience.

It has been responded indeed.... Look at the second post of the whole thread ;).... I'll just say that it's on it's way :cool:
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] mugglesquop:
ooo nice! Installed and fully working on my T-Mobile MDA Compact III (HTC Artemis).

Just a thought, when you scroll, could you have it so it carries on scrolling then slows down (sorry for the bad explanation!) there are a couple of apps like this, its a nice touch :)

Also, having to rename the config file is a bit of a chore, but i suppose this is just lazyness :P

Cheers for a great app!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] APBilbo:
Do you mean kinetic scrolling.... It's implemented... You can control the initial speed and the deceleration in the config app.

The renaming of the config file is for security as the config app it's still buggy ;).

Thanks for your comments.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] APBilbo:
Little Preview of what I'm on

Here you are some screenshots of what I've acomplished already.... As you can see is the throttle... into a today plugin!! :cool: You can also launch a windowed throttlelauncher while the other is on the today screen also. Still a little buggy and also want to add some more things before releasing but hopefully you will see it soon...

Hope you like it!!

Gullum, I've use some of your icons on the screenshots... hope you don't mind :o...

Edit: Sorry double post....
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] gullum:
I'm trying to controll wmplayer with TrottleLauncher I can but I need to open WMPlayer first and choose a song to be able to controll it

this is not an actual screenshot edited with Photoshop can't get it to display tags
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] oyegaurav83:
Is it possible to add other plugins.. like task or appointments etc.. on some page of the launcher?? i want to make throttle launcher as my default today screen...

hopefull you got my point..

Thanks for the app.. :)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] APBilbo:
Not currently, but the plugin height is configurable so you can add any plugin you want over it. In the screenshots the top plugins are Tasks, Calendar and BatteryStatus. Other thing that can be done (not currently but thats one of the things I want implemented before releasing) is changing between pages of the todayplugin and the throttlewindow by icons so you can "have" some full screen pages and some pages with the today plugins....
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] APBilbo:
So.... you need two things....

1. Way to take tags from player

2. Operation to open player and choose first song of current playing list if it's not open.

It's OK?

Thanks for the configuration and the icons!!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] oyegaurav83:
How can i make icon names appear just below the icons.. like what the icon links to.. Is it possible? Right now the icon name appears while clicking the icon..
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] APBilbo:
Not posible at this moment :(.... You can try something using the "text" tag in the config instead of the "icon"... That's also something on my TODO list ;). Take in mind that I started developping this app the 18th of december.... Lots of things remaining!!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] oyegaurav83:
:) i downloaded this app today.. therefore all these questions.. hope you dont mind.. maybe this will help making the app better!

anyways.. thanx for this app... its great!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] APBilbo:
Ofcourse I don't mind, you (everyone) are wellcome to post any questions ;).

I love how the stock ROM will not drop frames in low light, at both 30 and 60fps. Also, OOS allows all 3rd party camera apps to also remain at a steady 30fps. Have ROMs been able to achieve this level of performance yet? I'm looking for video/screen record samples so I can check before flashing (or returning the phone).

Use kies. You'll need your model number and serial number tho

Put phone in download mode

Connect to pc

Open kies

Up top click tools

Then firmware upgrade and initialization

Put in your model and serial number

Click OK

Click start

[Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ShinySide:
I didnt see your odin output edit when I responded earlier...... Where did you get that firmware? I dont think its a genuine untouched file because of its name and the fact normally bootloader aboot/sbin/etc flash before recovery/boot/system. Id download a fresh copy of your current firmware from HERE (download is of course slow tho)

You can try reinstalling the drivers. Heres official samsung drivers- https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=150304
[Sprint LG G3] Alex_XV6700:
I'M NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR PEOPLE NOT FOLLOWING INSTRUCTIONS OR HARD BRICKED PHONES.

To follow this guide you must at least be able to access TWRP or Download mode or Fastboot at least.

(This guide applies too if your phone boots but with the Secure Boot error 1003 <- this error doesnt let your phone charge powered off)

1. Download Unbrick.zip

2. Download LG root zvb method zip from HERE (thanks to AUTOPRIME & Team CODEFIRE)

2a. Extract unbrick zip and root zvb zip in the same location

2b. right click "open command prompt" inside the folder of extraction.

3. Have LG drivers installed (you can find them in the forums)

4. If you have access to download mode and no TWRP installed you must first nuke LAF

4a. use the command prompt window we opened on 2b. and nuke laf using dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/laf

4b. type LEAVE (this will leave your G3 on fastboot)

5. On the same window we must flash TWRP. using fastboot flash recovery twrp.img

5a. then fastboot flash boot boot.img, fastboot flash aboot aboot.img, fastboot flash laf laf.img

5b. fastboot reboot should take you to twrp where you can flash any rom (I suggest FULMICS)

5c. If the rom you flash fails to boot or you keep getting secure boot error keep on with this guide.

6. Enter twrp and copy the boot, aboot and laf imgs to your internal storage

6a. open a cmd prompt and enter adb shell

6b. use dd command as follows:

dd if=/sdcard/aboot.img of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/aboot

dd if=/sdcard/boot.img of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/boot

dd if=/sdcard/laf.img of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/laf

7. Reboot to recovery and flash any custom rom this should fix your Secure Boot error Sprint LG G3. :highfive:

Thanks to all devs who worked on root and roms for this amazing phone!
[Sprint LG G3] robbyyyyyyy:
Thanks! I had a working phone but still got the boot error. I copied the unbrick.zip to my phone and used the terminal in TWRP to run the dd commands in step 6b and it fixed the error! Reinstalled a fresh fulmics and everything is working fine.

[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] PsiPhiDan:
I plugged in my headphones to the phone and heard horrible static/hissing in the background, particularly when the volume is over halfway. I've tried 4 different connections (to my car stereo, to my headphones, to an external speaker, etc) and they all sound equally awful. I really hope I don't have a defective unit... This isn't normal though, right? Anything I can try to do to avoid an RMA? I'm rooted, bootloader unlocked, on PureNexus with EX kernel. No audio mods.

:(
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] PsiPhiDan:
Also, just two notes:

1) I am 100% sure the cable is plugged in all the way.

2) I have no issues with the speaker (which tends to be what people have issues with on this phone, ironically). Audio had no distortion through speaker, but through the headphone jack its horrendous. I can't even listen to it it's so bad.

Unfortunately (fortunately?) that's not my issue. I can hear music, it's just terrible sounding due to the hissing I'm the background. It's as if the cable is only half plugged in (but it's not). Thank you for searching though! :)
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] shakirajane:
Google has admitted the audio distortion issue being reported in its Pixel smartphones is an hardware problem, and it looks like the company is issuing replacements for customers. The audio distortion issue was first reported in December when a user named Mark Buckman had posted about the same.
[Google Pixel Questions & Answers] PsiPhiDan:
Wasn't Mark having issues with his internal speaker when headphones were NOT plugged in though? I think those are different issues. My audio is fine at full blast, as far as I can tell, with no headphones plugged in. It's just when I plug something into the headphone jack that I hear the problem. I'll try his piano and see if I can reproduce his issue though. Maybe I just haven't tested the internal speaker hard enough.

EDIT: Grr... I do have the other problem too! Shown clearly by the Perfect Piano app... Well thank you for leading me to finding that out! :)
