I have nothing but trouble with this thing (cited above) but it wasn't really made up for my phone, so no foul. May I suggest, for you, however, a really cool app I found http://www.gps-weather-radar.com/ which, on my phone, finds the weather for me either by GPS location or by finding the tower to which I am closest and communicating with at the time ...It's really cool !! & free!!:eek:
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] akademik_acheeba:
great work !!!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] seedoubleyou:
yeah, i actually figured out it was simply Accuweather misbehaving... the weather app works great, as well as the entire rest of the app... again, great job!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] dioxda2:
Great great great......

But,

By the way.....

anyone had tried my fixed version?

:):)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] rlsimon:
dunno..

I don't know which one is the "fixed" version, but if it is of help to you, I am willing to try it again ...would you point the way, please?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] dioxda2:
well, I mean the rss fixed one from post 1 (which was edited by me .. :()

did you install that one? :D
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] seedoubleyou:
After running this solid for a few days, I noticed one significant issue with it that's caused me to uninstall it, perhaps temporarily. Battery consumption! Even with auto-updates disabled, I was lucky to get even six hours of battery on my Incite before I had to connect it to the charger.

Anyone seen this? Any ideas?

btw,..it was the 'fixed' cab I was running, essentially problem free until I realized my battery was getting chewed up...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] smjoshi:
Yes I see greater batter drain too. Though not as drastic as reported here. By the way I couldn't find any thing on the Home screen or any other screen that shows the current battery status. Is there any way in which the battery status can be displayed?

I have an a3100 english rom and the phone screen stock obeys landscape ...were you speaking about a custom screen or this one because it works landscape both ways ...I wish the stock moto today screen would also obey landscape...:eek:

anybody can help make this not a ram memory killer?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] omrif:
Hi. thanks you for the download link to this great home screen.

I'd try this on my Omnia and I have few questions:

1. Can you make a compatible version to the Omnia 6.5 WM? it's not look good.

2. I doesn't see the clock on the main screen. =\
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] l3it3r:
It's cool and all, but I will be sticking with SPB MS3
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] oscarbum:
I...LOVE....THIS

Maybe from a numbers standpoint, it eats RAM, but everything seems to run smoothly on my Tilt while it's on.

I do have a couple of issues though.

Pic 1. I have no calendar and no clock on the home screen.

Pic 2. When I press settings on the applications screen or press one of the plus buttons, I get this screen. I can't add anything to those screens.

But all in all, this is fantastic. Almost like Manila with wrap around.

EDIT: Oh, and when I press 'All Programs' on the launcher screen, the today screen just goes black.

2nd EDIT: HOLY S**T! Incoming texts scroll along the top! That needs to be in a screen shot!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] geoja32:
tried it on my d2, work ok not as good as the pharos tho..but great upload
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] jboogie3:
o ya forgot to mention about incoming text, or a missed call... pretty much any notification is showed on the top of the bar. You should be able to show clock and calendar by going to settings from the drop down menu and scroll all the way down and you can turn them on
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] oscarbum:
Love a duck! I thought that would take me to the phone settings. Got it.

Also, when I press 'Lock' on the Home screen and then unlock it, it seems like I have to press OK button on phone to unlock the Today screen. That correct?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] jboogie3:
lol yes that is correct.. now your problem with the fav applications displaying may not work the first few times but if you try it again it should appear.. its kinda buggy at times due to it being made for MOTO SURF A3100
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ai6908:
It sure does eats a lot of RAM, but its a nice UI! Thanks...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] hrhnick:
looks sharp. works nice on my touch pro. it does eat ram, but its a refreshing change of a homscreen

no landscape anything tho :(

even if it just went blank, it jus rotates back to portrait when i snap the keyboard open.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] liewwk:
I own a motosurf A3100. This moto-plugin is a little from what I have (came default with the phone):

1. The home screen is different: the phone settings icons are different

2. I don't have a pics and video display app in the carousel.

Where did you get this cab from???
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] jboogie3:
this is the new moto homescreen that is out for the new roms for the motosurf.. they are replacing the today interface with this one

Works well on TP2...although a little blured, I suppose because it is streched to fill the screen. Seems a bit limited too compared to TF3D2, but I'll keep it on for a day or 2 and see what nice surprises it gives me. :)

BTW...if you set up your city in the weather tab, you have the option to use the current weather as your background. Looks quite nice!

Thanks for posting.

Thanks for posting this. I really like the UI, but unfortunately, it doesn't seem to be 100% working yet. Like the programs launcher shows nothing, and I get occasional crashes. I like it, but until it becomes more stable, I'm just gonna stick with Titanium.

Thank you so much!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] faeArai:
Yeah, the RSS reader seems to be missing. But I like it very. Better then MS3 in my opinion. And... what do you mean by saying that it consumes much ram? Did you ever looked on ram consumtion of tfd3?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] urubatan:
Working on my Arthemis (P3301),

but it runs very slowly, I think I'll keep the HTC home plugin only ...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] oscarbum:
Since this UI was designed for Motorola phones, certain aspects aren't going to work. The RSS feed doesn't seem to work for anyone with HTC and the like. However, if you go into File Explorer and pull up Program Files/MotoSurf/TodayOption.exe, you can uncheck the RSS option and get rid of it. It's like a simplified version of M2DC. And if you're phone is in English, it's REALLY simple since the RSS option is the only one you'll be able to read.

EDIT: The issue with the inability to add favorite programs was solved by reverting back to a 6.1 ROM.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] blazingwolf:
Except for the RSS panel this works pretty well on my Omnia. Thanks for upping it.

Maybe the RSS is linked to an outside program?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] aibonlengket:

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] greenstabber:
is there any way to change the wallpaper?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] twolf:
Not sure if anyone noticed it yet, you can enable/disable tabs on the START/Settings/Today/Items/Plugin Options

Or direcly in \Program Files\MotoSurf\TodayOption.exe

Home tab cant be disabled, and the rest of the list is in another font, so the list is as follows:

- Contacts

- Internet

- Weather

- RSS (duh)

- Pictures

- Applications

Other tips:

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

- You can click once on the upper window on the HOME tab to fix it to the windows there, with 3 extra shortcuts that you can change easily.

- Ordering the launcher and contacts is pretty obvious, just press whithout releasing the finger and drag afterwords. To remove, use the SETTINGS softkey.

- The big weather is reached after clicking a city. As mentioned here before, the C anf F are also clickable to choose weather type.

- Also mentioned here before, the SETTINGS icon on the home tab allows more customization.

- The weather wallpaper option are JPG's inside \Program Files\MotoSurf\ , in fact all the images, icons and XML's that make the layout seem to be there, so skinning and modding this baby should be a breeze. :D

...still havent found a way to change the pictures folder. ;)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] aibonlengket:
well, you beat me to it :) . looking through the xml, still can't find where it store the rss link setting. maybe registry? i looked, but can't find anything related to motorolla and rss.

to change the wallpaper: just change it in the START/Settings/Today/"use this picture as the background"

make sure you tick off wheather settings "set city's weather as wallpaper" in motosurf

Update

@jboogie3:

i think i found where it store the rss.

hkcu\software\brogent\attila\rsswidget\rssentries

can you provide us the key when there is an rss feed? maybe we can add them mannually, or like some one said, there is a program outside this to make the rss working. any program around brogent or attila? just my guess. i could be wrong. just itching to get it to work. :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] hocksteo:
Thanks! I tested it on my MWg Zinc II and it is working smoothly.

You can move around the shortcut icons on Home (upper window) and Favourite Applications by holding and dragging it around.

I wish some of the tab like RSS and Weather which I do not need can be converted into more Favourite Applications :)

Good job!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] alexanderi:
How to remove / unintall it?

Anyone know how to remove it? There is no option on Add/remove program after installation.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] oscarbum:
Doing some research on Google, Brogent is a mobile software developer. I don't know if anyone has heard of this company. None of their apps ring a bell with me, but the site is intriguing. Particularly this:

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Coruja747:
It use a lot of ram, but works nice and fast on a MS20 at 200mhz (KS20).

Much more customizable than manila2D, but it doesnt have too many features. For now its a great today plugin, with nice effects, finger friendly, etc.

PS: You can use this thing using only hardware keyboard arrows :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] jboogie3:

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] jboogie3:
you have to have one in order for it to work properly
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] aibonlengket:
well, after searching i found pRss reader. really nice, it can sync to google reader. it does not integrate with moto surf. so this out of topic.

i know i'm asking too much, but can you extract the rss apps from the motorolla? and upload it. it would be great.

I had to run it by ActivSync except for wap gprs or wifi not
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] zackhunter:
@diabolik Set up your connection so that internet is connected automaticly when a program need it in your connection settings -> advanced -> Select Network.

Best looking TodayPlugIn ive tested on my device, absolutely fast'n smooth animations on HTC Magician (WM6.1 cotulla HTCMAG_WWE_O3 ROM) with 64MB & 416MHz.

Minimum requirement seems to be WM6 and higher.

Pros:

+You can install the program on your storage card. No performance loss. Because all files of the program are loaded permanently on boot up.

+Smooth animation even on slower/older devices

But,

- can't add a RSS Feed. The RSS Update seems to work but stopped immediately because of no RSS entry. (on HTC Magician)

- 9MB RAM minimum usage

- 2% idle load even on standby mode. ~50% load on action

- Deactivating e.g. the RSS, photo modules doesnt affect the RAM. So the DLLs won't be deleted out of the RAM. :mad:

I think Skin Mods and further tweaks can be made, but when you look at the xml files they arer so big and overloaded that it would be a pain in the big toe to write a program for it. But nevertheless its fast.

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] kraski:
First of all, thanks to jboogie3. Grabbed this Saturday night & tried it on my GSM Treo Pro with RealVGA set at 96dpi. It does use memory, but it works very well (even installed to my storage card) with only two glitches that I noticed.

Like others, the RSS tab didn't work for me. And I have BeyondPod, HTC's RSShub, iBrowz beta & Handmark Express all installed. So, none of those connect to the RSS tab. Does anyone know what would?

There's also another glitch that's a little more important. Normally, the far right corner of my topbar sports a task manager icon to access running programs. It's there for Pointui 2, Manila 2D & bare WinMo 6.1. But the MotoSurf UI makes that icon disappear, with no access to the task manager. Any ideas for a fix or an alternative?

And a request. If jboogie3 or someone else is willing to mod this a little bit, one or two more launcher pages would be really nice.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] dlwl:

Just discovered a display glitch regarding background images, at least on my 320x320 Treo Pro. MotoSurf seems to stretch images, left to right, using the left screen edge as a starting point & going off the right side of the screen. There may be a similar effect top down, but the side to side shift is very noticeable in some images -- especially centered logos & cityscapes.
