Hi guys!. First of all, really nice app, really useful! Contrats to the author ;)

I'm using WM6.5.1 23409 ROM on a Diamond, and so far i've found 2 issues:

1) The one already reported about the Win button not being "released". I see the author is aware and fix is more or less "ongoing". Perfect! Eagerly waiting for newer version... (enjoy the holidays btw :P)

2) Sometimes i have to push soft-keys twice, the first time i tap doesn't seem to happen anything... In this case, i don't know if it's sonmehow related to the first issue...

Does the second issue happen to anyone else??

Thx and again congratulations for this great app!!!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] pg2005:
really nice app.

HTC touch HD Touchflo wont start after softreset. What did I do wrong?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] finsmaniac02:
Yes, I too can confirm that there is strange behavior with reading emails since installing this version of showcase suite. I am on a HTC FUZE running the newest "Chrome" rom, it came with the previous showcase (used the top right corner, even though icons on the bottom). Anyways I have noticed since switching that if I read a few emails and maybe send/delete some eventually it locks up. I have tmail.exe on the exclude list because I prefer to leave it up all the time.

Any workaround or fix would be greatly appreciated by all of us, I am sure; but most of all, thanks for the hard work and the app!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] witschey:
I don't know what caused you to want to do a soft reset, but I had to do it due to the phone freezing.

My system (Kaiser running WM 6.5 23053) worked VERY nice with the new Showcase suite until it suddenly froze. I attempted a soft reset but it was never able to start again. It would freeze in the Windows Startup screen.

I have reinstalled ALL the software that I had before (about 59 programs), except for Showcase Suite, and the phone hasn't frozen at all. I am now pretty certain that Showcase Suite cases the bugs that I described in an earlier post; namely:

- Freezes the phone after a while.

- Causes Outlook to close while reading emails (when you open several emails in a row, scroll through them, but switch to another email before finishing to read....while using MS Exchange)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] pavanmaverick:
Has anyone noticed a problem with this version of Showcase and Resco Explorer? When I install Showcase, Resco begins to act like I have a 200x200 screen, with the today screen showing through on the top and bottom!

I have reverted to 1.01b for now....
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] DrBasem:
I installed the new Showcase Suit onto Miri's ROM with build 23053 and was never able to boot my device successfully. It just keeps halting on the "launching TouchFlo 3D ..." phase.

Thanks for your efforts bro. I'm pretty sure it'll soon work :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] FurY2007:
Yup, the item 2 happens to me too on my DIamond
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] juavil:
This app seems to be based on the code of Start Menu Button Hook that is GPLv3 licensed.

According to that license, you can modify the code as long as the new app follows the same license and you public the modifications done.

i believe calc found a fix for the locking up/freezing, he posted it over here - http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=4578782&postcount=4644
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] agh1701:
I am not sure about this. I am having zero problems withe e-mail and SMS. with showcase suite loaded I am having problems with e-mail locking up. Has anyone tried this?

UPDATE: I have tested it and it dose not seem to fix the problem.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] amarullz:
I am not use even a bit code from that thread/apps, and the new build was completely different from previous wm build for hooking start menu.

The different was: my code doen't need any signing certificate to be able to hook the messages from different windows.

Pros: It can hook any windows messages from another process without needed signing the code (ex: SDK Cert)

Cons: Hooking messages must be passed via another window, so I can't access the messages directly from hooked WndProc ( If I change any local variable on hooked WndProc, it will bring GWES.exe error - Access Denied ).

So, yes, managing the message with this method was more difficult than what you pointed, but the compatibility was better, it will run even in Original ROM without SDK Cert installed.

I will find the bugs in ShowcaseSuite.exe after I finished my other project ;) .

Note: ShowcaseSuite.exe was very-very experimental app, I share it because I want to share my idea, If it works for you, I am glad, and I don't even ask you to give me some milk :D. And don't forget that WM6.5.x even only on Test Build State :P

And as I always said "USE MY APP(s) WAS YOUR OWN RISK :D :D --> off course I never create an application(s) that will make your phone become a brick :p"
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] SOHKis:
i have re-cooked w/the new .dll calc posted and enatives. haven't locked up yet, but i've still got some testing to do. i'll report back w/my findings.

*doesn't seem to have helped, still getting lockups*

keep up the good work amarullz, thanks for sharing your app, ideas, and work! it's greatly appreciated!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Cythrelo:
I'm having a really strange problem with Showcase for 6.5.x. Everything else works fine, but when I try to launch the task managing window, I hold the start button and nothing happens. When I check in the task manager, Showcase.exe is running, but I can't switch to it. If I kill it and try again, I have the same problem. I've tried replacing the files (it's cooked in, so I downloaded the OEM and copied all of the files into \Windows\) and I'm still having the same problem.

Is this a problem with an obvious solution? I haven't had any luck searching the thread.

TITAN running 23414-23053

I have been using the QVGA version on my TITAN and all is working well.

I use DotFred task manager to identify the Windows name of the program that needs the "adjustment", and enter that into the reg.

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=4562699&postcount=671

This program has helped me to adjust to the newer builds.

I'm still stuck on 21858. For the smoothness of it.

But that could change tonight.

The way these builds keep rolling out.

Thank you again for all the focus that you put into this.

I'm also having problems with outlook with this application installed - it keeps shutting down my outlook after reading a few emails... works fine after I uninstall the application.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] amarullz:

I will fix it after WM6.5.x consistent with it UI&Core, so I don't need to build the ShowcaseSuite.exe every WM6.5.x Build(s) released. :p
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] finsmaniac02:
Makes absolute sense to me, why "have" to fix it multiple times? lol. I just wanted to say thanks again for the app, I am sorry if its frustrating to get on here and see a bunch of us complaining about it freezing and stuff; I hope you remember at the end of the day how much we all appreciate your awesome work here!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] witschey:
I think most, if not all, of us understand. I shared the bugs about the application because I think every developer would want to know if his/her application has bugs. It is through testers that you find out that something is wrong.

I like the showcase suite a LOT; so I am anxious for a working version. You have showed us that the showcase suite can be a FANTASTIC application once the bugs are gone; so now you have us hooked into wanting to use it everyday, but due to the nature of the bugs that is not possible (it freezes the phone, closes outlook while browsing emails, etc.).

Older Versions??

May sound stupid (and I did search the Thread) but is this backward compatible to 6.1? I found this thread after reading the old one and seeing it moved. My Verizon CDMA is still unable to be cooked.

If so, which version please.

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] dijor69:
Hi, thanks for sharing your program is very useful to me, I wanted to make a suggestion:

Usually people use cleanup programs such as RAM Sweeper or clean memory ram ..., why not add a user configurable button, or register to call an external program like this. I think it would give a lot of functionality that the open if we see that the memory is overloaded, simply opened to click on the cleaning.

Thanks you.

I am using Showcase Suite to "fix" the layout of the screens for Resco Explorer and Registry Editor. If you choose to use the same, make sure you remove "manila" from the regkey "SUITE_PositionFix_WinClasses" or the 6.5 Taskbar will overlay MS3 pages!

My "SUITE_PositionFix_WinClasses" = "RESCO_EXPLORER_CLASS;RESCO_REGISTRY_CLASS"

I am running ShowcaseSuite and notice that Showcase.exe (121kb) does not close on exit (Return, Double X, and Home buttons). Can you fix it, at least point Double X button to close Showcase.exe.

Otherwise, it's running perfectly. Tested on build 23047 and 23053.

If this app can view processes, it will be super awesome!

Thanks!

Is there anything i can do to have wm6.5.x bar with icontacts ae?

I dont want icontact to full screen, but i want to see wm6.5.x bar, so i can close icontact with the softkey of the bar. Is there any (registry?) way to use showcase for this? Thanks.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Trident:
Where is that key in the registry?

I'm going to assume it's the same for MS3.5.

Will removing the Resco keys allow it to show correctly as well?

[Sweet. This worked perfectly for MS3.5!]

I'm having issues with outlook too. When doing a send/receive to an imap server, I'm unable to cancel, or open the start menu, the connection status doesn't update either. The phone stays responsive, I can browse emails and close outlook but then I can't start anything else. Also if I rotate the screen the start bar doesn't move.

Just a heads up, like others I don't expect an instant fix.

After i uninstalled Showcase Suite, then i can open it fine.

Great job on the latest release amarullz. I love the new tap and hold feature especially. But, one thing (and Im sure its a setting im not getting right) but when I install the suite, manila 2.1 stops launching for me. I went in the reg and changed the key for manla launch fix, but still a no go. Once I uninstalled, everything was fine. Im on build 23420. As well, I was getting the random problems with lockups in outlook email when closing out of it or reading a few emails.

edit*** ok, got it to launch now by enabling launchfix and activating position fix as I found that it was in my rom and deleted the key. But, now when I go to use manila or I hit start button, manila closes. Any clues?

last edit** alright, so i stumbled upon a workaround for most of my issues and it still keeps showcase on the start menu. i was going to uninstall (and actually thought i did) showcase suite because of the above mentioned concerns. I then installed just the manila position fix and deleted the entire reg entries for showcase (the suite) under hkcu\software\enatives.........\showcase and left the reg entries created when you just install the position fix (hkcu\software\enatives.........\wm6.5.x fix. Now, at least showcase is attached the start button and it actually doesnt shut down manila anymore. Only problem I have now is, of course no configuration, i.e., no vibrate on hold, or hold to close the app. But, I just needed something reliable to quickly get to open apps and close them as needed. I never close them anyways unless the app has exit function.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Kev007:
Resco Explorer still looks funny (the window is a square now) with Showcase installed, the registry values indicate that the position fix is activated!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] agh1701:
Showcase still has problems with locking up while reading email. I will be so happy when amarullz fixes it.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] makeveral:

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] blazingwolf:
You need to change the position settings for your device.

Hi Amarullz, thank you for the Showcase.

I've cooked it in but the showcase sometimes opens very slow or not at all, after a softreset it works for some time again but this a pretty anoying issue.

The showcase I'm using without HTC Taskmanager and the wm6.5 position fix.

Do you have any tips?

Anybody have a clue on how to get this to replace HTC task manager by pressing top right corner of screen? I installed latest version then reset and it won't do that. It's besides the point if I have to map my only hard button to this or go through the start menu. I been reading through the forum for over an hour searching for a solution to no avail. I got HTC elfin and winmo 6.5
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] blazingwolf:
With which GUI? If the start menu is at the top then you need Showcase 1.01. If you have the start menu on the lower bar then you need Showcase Suite. The two versions are different.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ZenecadE:
I have showcase suite installed. After fiddleing round with the phone, I accidently discovered how to activate it. Long press on Windows key in bottom left did the trick. Now I am happy and contempt ;) To the developer, great software! Keep em coming!

Great app amarullz .

Have you considered moving Showcase_???.png files to a resource .dll?

I cooked Showcase.exe and ShowcaseSuite.exe as modules in my ROM, to get instant access to the app. But there is still occasional slowdown on accessing the .png skin. If it was in resource .dll I could cook it in as module too. :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] amarullz:
I have an idea to "not" use any png files.. all skins will customizable via registries (color), it will increase performance and reduce memory usage. Will code it later :).

About ShowcaseSuite, I still waiting another WM build that I feel comfortable to use it daily, so I can resume to fix all the bugs... Currently I am still hook with 21859 :D, don't know for next couple days...

Yes, replace them

2) Do acknowledgement of closing of whole list of programs

amarullz

2. :D ok... i don't understand :D

I'm too :D

Ok. I'm try again.

If user will press to button to "Close all program" (Xx) , your app must ask "You really want to close all programs?"

Forgive me for my terrible english, again :)

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] kamikaze458:
Amarullz...

I insist, great app!!!

It's working flawlessly on my htc Fuze with ENRGY rom 3.0 (wm6.5).

I noticed that if you are using S2U2 you should UNCHECK/DISABLE the following option (in s2u2) so showcase can woek properly:

"Check Exceptional EXEs run in foreground only"

One request Amarullz --> if you run showcase in a fuze in portrait orientation and the you open the keyboard... then showcase in SOME TIMES wont show the 4 buttons (memory, killall process, etc.).

Can u fix it?

Many thanx and congratulations.... this app should be on every rom.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] kamikaze458:
Mmmm, finally i've to uninstall S2U2 because it just cause showcase not to work. So i ll use the integrated locking program.

If anyone knows the solution!...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] amarullz:
:D Ok no more than 4-5 days again :D, I need to finishing X Button, and configuration file (Showcase will be able to set in background, but without big memory usage)....

I will upload X Button Support (test only) tomorrow (NEW IDEA :D, and very FingerFriendly), If you like my idea, I can finished it faster...

Feature on X Button:

1. Press the X button will show new bar on Taskbar, with buttons =

[ Showcase ] [ Close ] [ OK/Minimize ]

2. If you want to select showcase, just slide your finger into top left screen..

3. If you want to close current window, just slide your finger into top center screen.

4. If you tap only will resulting default minimize/OK action.

5. If you want to cancel/abort the action without selecting some button, just move your finger into other location...

6. Skinnable and MemoryFriendly :D

Sounds great. :) Thx.

Questions:

1. Why is your app found in program list as last entry? (Topaz, OriginalROM WM 6.1)

2. Option > Software deinstallation in WM 6.1: Programes were sorted in chronological order before. Installing your application, order changed to alphabetical order. I don't like that.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] amarullz:
1. I already fixed it.

2. I don't know about it, never happened to me. I am use EnumWindow, by default this function will enumerated windows from the top most into the bottom windows (not in alphabetical), I will find why it happened to you...
