Thanks! :). I'm glad you're enjoying it. I know the widgets require some more work... It's hard to keep order and design while developing alone... thanks good I've some great betatesters and great designers that work along with me to take Throttle out of the shell :).

Weird... may be you should try another ROM (just for testing, I'm not blaming the rom itself). Please post your ThrottleToday.txt file also.

Thanks!

The log file tells the following:

18:07:26 - USING HARDWARE ACCELERATION!!
18:07:26 - Display OK = OpenGLES.EGLDisplay
18:07:27 - Init OpenGL: 12289
18:07:27 - OpenGL version: 0.0
18:07:27 - Number of total configs: 0
18:07:27 - Unable to choose config for 24 bits, looking for 16 bits.
18:07:27 - Unable to choose config. Getting first available.
18:07:27 - Number of configs 0
18:07:27 - OpenGL window handle: 2080985680

Important thing there is that OpenGL is unable to start (EGL_NOT_INITIALIZED=12289)... You should frist try a softreset. If that doesn't work either, please try using another ROM....

Thanks!

Not the message I wanted to hear :rolleyes:
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] APBilbo:
Sorry to give bad news :(. But I've got a Diamond myself and it's working pretty nice :). It has to be a driver issue, and that one normally goes built into the ROM. So there're not too much choices there :(.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Habib Molaska:
Love this application, just one problem. The calender widget won't show the upcoming events. I've searched the forum and I believe it has to do with the widget which only display events happening the next two to three days? But I think that's just stupid. Why NOT show the NEXT events no matter when they happen? I should even have the option to choose how many "next events" I want to display.

Also, the calender seems to have all the holidays as an event, thus making my calender more busy than usual. I do not like that one bit.

Anyone?

Just love the app though, but this calender thing made me uninstall the launcher at once.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] finch273:
tried now your update and the weather works well that's fine but the softkeybar problem isn't fixed yet but i can live with that...

very nice app the only thing that sucks is the calendar widget, each time i'll swipe from one to the next screen and when i hit the widget the month changes...:mad::eek:

and the big weather pic wont update, anything to set up before this will work???

nice app

greetz finch
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] extrapurifier:
No Prob! It was meant as a joke ;) You do a very good job. Thumbs up!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] APBilbo:
That's really really weird... Note that the calendar only shows appointments (those you entered throught the calendar app) not all events (like birthdays or similar). If the calendar shows appointments during the weekend... there must be an appointments there :P... I mean I would understand that for some reason it may not show them... but showing when they do not exist... that's really weird!

Well... the gestures are there to manage the date... but you're right, I've also had those issues when scrolling. I can add a configuration item to disable the gestures.

About the weather picture... it should update if the weather changes. The big one only shows the current meteo.

Thanks!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] finch273:
i'm talking about this and some buttons to change month and year instead of scrolling could be possible

greetz finch
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] APBilbo:
Ops... that doesn't look very good :o. Have you tried using accuweather or something similar? Seems like you are you using the automatic location service.. right?

You're right... buttons are posible too :). I'll think of it.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] finch273:
it's google weather service auto update and accuweather areacode doesn't work for me

greetz finch
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] APBilbo:
Di you try adding # in front of the accuweather code?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] finch273:
then tl crashed completely when trying to update
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] APBilbo:
:eek: .... Could you post the log file for that please? (enable log file, make TL clash, and then post the throttletoday.txt file).

Thanks!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] finch273:
here it is tl reboots each time
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] APBilbo:
I've tried this one and it's working fine: #EUR|DE|GM001|NORDHAUSEN

Wich one are you trying?

Also I can reproduce the icon not updating thing with the google weather... I'm going to check it ;)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] finch273:
according to accuweather i should name it eur\de\gm017\nordhausen

but i'll try this code

greetz finch
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] APBilbo:
Oh, but it should be with '|' and not with '\' ;).

About google weather... it's actually google's fault:

view-source:http://www.google.com/ig/api?weather=Nordhausen, Deutschland

If you watch the source code... you will see that the icon for current weather is empty :(.

Well.. please, try eur|de|gm017|nordhausen. And if it doesn't work try #eur|de|gm017|nordhausen
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] finch273:
same behaviour like before:confused:
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] APBilbo:
With "#EUR|DE|GM017|NORDHAUSEN" is working for me :(. Please send me the file:

I just tried Throttle Launcher... it looks really nice but it's really laggy on Omnia2 sadly :(

Wondering if something can be done:confused:
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] msoccer2:
Did you install it on device memory or memory card? It runs faster on device memory
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] deadsea:
I believe that's sort of a known issue right? Correct me if i'm worng, but the O2 doesnt have the proper 1.0 drivers. It's not going to be entirely smooth without hardware acceleration.

Unless APBilbo ports it to 2.0, which could be tough since O2 doesn't have all the 2.0 functions either. So yeah, bit sad for us O2 users. Oh And incase, you notice a opengl driver over at modaco, that doesn't work yet. At least as of last wk.

Oh and I did test the earlier TL 1.0. Runs fine, just a bit choppy once you start a few widgets. Didn't actually try to start hardware acceleration though since it seems that everyone that tried has had it crash.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Qazz~:
will this work on a 6.5.x ROM?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] spectra9:
The same here with my Acer F900, it uses the same processor as O2 but with slower speed. I'm using Ginkage 0.26 OpenGLES 1 layer. Hopefully TL will support OpenGLES 2.0 soon
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] defters24:
what have i done wrong, throttelauncher 1.00 is working fine with my himalaya wm6.5.3 28230 by sundream except for a bit slow. now i installed throttelauncher 1.0.1 and now i cant get it to work. I unistalled and reinstalled the 1st version but not working anymore. Throttleconfig is working i can configure and save the changes but after clicking throttlelauncher nothing is happening.

Any assistance pls.

But this application is really awesome...more power to you.

got it working perfectly..now using windows phone 7 theme by arley12...excellent work!!!!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Habib Molaska:
So I have to manually enable the hardware acceleration? How do I do that? I have an HTC Touch Pro2 phone.

APBilbo, about that calender thing. I'm not sure I could follow your reply, either way, why have an empty calender widget when it can display the next upcoming events no mather when they occur? Also, the widget should be dynamic in size and thus be small if there are few events and large if there are many of them. For me to have an option to choose how many events it should be able to show in one go would be awesum.

You've really been successful with this app, please fix the calendar =)

Feature or wish list

Hi

I've installed it as a todayplugin on my Touch HD (german stock rom). I runs fast. Nice programm. :)

Now I have a few questions or feature wishes

it would be nice to add shortcuts for documents or webpages

it would be nice to lock shortcuts/widgets so that they're displayed on all pages

is it possible to display other today-plugins inside throttlelauncher pages ? (That would be very cool)

bye

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] alecoddlyiv:
what device? try the software section for it on here ;)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] det.terry:
It lags...

It looks great but lags on Omnia 2 (not Omnia 1 with lower CPU speed, funny), maybe it's the OpenGLES 1.0

Hope you can fix this.

Thx.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] extrapurifier:
Unfortunately won't work with 5.2.28205 on Diamond :(
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] APBilbo:
@everyone:

I'm working in an update of the facebook plugin :). I've successfully grabbed the user photos, user contacts (with photo) and I think I will be able to get also the stream information :).

@Omnia2 users:

I will try to wrap the Omnia2 drivers as soon as I have some time ;).

Could you post the log file?

Thanks for the feedback :). The first one is a really good idea, I will think of it. For the seccond... it will be hard to handle... Though there could be a theme using widgets in the header so they are in all pages ;).

The thrid is possible :). If you install RC3 and keep the Light3D version from there (or try BBSmart4D theme) you will see a config option of the theme allowing you to host today plugins inside Throttle.

Depends on your device. Commonly they should be built in the ROM.

The Hardware acceleration option is in ThrottleConfig. Wich calendar widget are you talking about?... the calendar or the appointments? I'm a little bit lost here :P. The calendar shows all the appointments (doesn't show events or full day appointments). You can scroll through the months.

Thanks!

So you have it working now?

Yes, it should.

Do you mean in Omnia 2? If Hardware acceleration option is available, you should check it ;). It's not such a great deal, just check if it works, and if it's faster.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] extrapurifier:
I already did :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] APBilbo:
Ah! I thought it was a new error there... Yes, the problem is the OpenGL driver or better said with EGL. You should try another ROM :(. Also try disabling any opengl based application you have in your system (i.e. touchflo3D). I have the app working perfectly on my diamond so it has to be even driver or ROM issue.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] extrapurifier:
Thats what I said. I dont think it depends on Diamond or Touch Flow ... I use this ROM without Touch Flow or Sense and disabled also Titanium. I think it depends on the newest relase of Windows Mobile ...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] APBilbo:
That could also be... It could be an issue with the driver and the WinMo build... Does Touchflo or Sense work there? (sorry if you have already answered this...)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] extrapurifier:
No Problem. Its in my interest, that Throttle Launcher will run on my ROM :) I dont have Touch Flow or Sense installed. Only native Windows Mobile 6.5. Click in my signature and you will see the ROM-Thread from Nickshot. The only thing I did is flash my Diamond with this ROM. Only Windows Mobile 6.5 and Titanium. :)

OEM or EXT for TL 1.0.1

I scanned through this thread and made a request on the TL forum with no luck so far.

What I am looking for is an OEM or EXT for 1.0.1 that will work on WM6.5 on a i910.

Help please since I can't get a good cooked in version with any package maker using the release cab as input.

I would be just as happy with information on how to make it work cooked in.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] alecoddlyiv:
you can resize the panel in the advanced section of the today plugin section
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] alecoddlyiv:
I dont see the problem with this, someone has created this off their own backs and is happy to share it for free and you are griping over having to search for a download link - how lazy are you?

anyway

http://www.throttlelauncher.com/portal/Products/ThrottleLauncher/windowsmobilethrottlelauncher101

all you have to do is scroll down and click :rolleyes:

if that's too much trouble perhaps you would consider sending me your phone and i will install it for you ;) ;)

Quality Software

As a v1.0 i was expecting something half baked - but the whole shell is very well thought out - being able to swipe up/down as well as sideways makes 4 panels available with one gesture.. try that with any of the others. Perfomance on a Topaz with 6.5.3 ROM is excellent - much faster than WAD or Pointui.. SPB shell is too fussy & Infinity a long way from being ready..

well worth a contribution to this project

One suggestion - can the app short cuts behave more like real buttons than just icons ? that'd be terrific.. thanks
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] beababe:
How does this work with a wvga phone with landscapemode+hardwarekeyboard like xperia1? :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] deadsea:
Yup, Omnia 2. I'll test and post back when i can squeeze out a bit of time. Anyways, the performance was ok with 2-3 widgets and no hardware acc. Just that i use a few more than that, so it does get slightly choppy.

If you intend to try to fix the Omnia 2 driver issue, you might want to look at chainfire/ginkage's opengl es 3d driver thread over at modaco first. Apparently samsung screwed up big time on the drivers. Not everything 2.0works as supposed to and not everything is there.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] APBilbo:
I've already looked at modaco ;). I think Omnia 2 has a 1.3 driver also. I tried to make a patch for TL to work with this driver but it didn't seem to work :(.

AFAIK it works great there. In LS mode it will allow you to select widgets to place on the screen.

Thank you very much! :).

I really apreciate your comments and ofcourse your contribution. Thanks!

What do you mean by the buttons thing? Do you mean with pressed effect?

I think he's having an issue with the browser redirecting him back to the download page instead of downloading.

I don't know how to make an OEM or EXT :(. Sorry...

It's not hidden? That's weird... Could you try a softreset to see if it works after it? Please, also post your ThrottleToday.txt file.

Thanks!

Wich browser are you using? Do you have some kind of security settings on your browser. Please try using mozilla or iexplorer from a PC.

About posting the file here, I don't want to maintain the files in several places for obvious reasons. Plus, to download the app you have to accept the agreement, I cannot ensure that by posting the file here and I cannot take the responsability of downloads without accepting the agreement.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Dishe:
I love the concept here!

But as I mentioned back in beta, it looks to lag just a bit on anything that isn't running a snapdragon CPU. To be fair, almost all full-screen today UIs that scroll like this do (SPB Shell, WAD, etc). The only one that seems to manage smooth transitions is HTC's own manila, and I'm sure they have some secret acceleration formula that no one else has access to. :(

I left manila to find something more configurable, then left SPB because it didn't have a smooth enough frame rate on my Rhodium.

I decided to finally try this out, despite noticing some lag in the demonstration video... and the customization is second to none! But when I scroll from side to side, it just lags ever-so-slightly. Most people won't be bothered by this (tons of people are still using SPB shell on their Rhodium and swear by it) but it drives me nuts personally, especially compared to other devices on the market.

Heck, I ran Android on this hardware, and it scrolls pretty fluidly. I know the hardware is capable, but so far no one has managed to create a smooth scrolling 3rd party UI for this device yet. Its not your fault, though- Something about the way MS handles the video acceleration just bugs the heck out of me.

*sigh*

Great job, though. This may just be the best it will ever get under the circumstances.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] johnny.g:
yes exactly - like on the programs tab.. a visual clue would be great if the app takes time to load..

On the subject of the program tab I've selected only favourites and it displays the entire set twice ! (with the + in the middle) any ideas?

also a nice enhancement would be to make it easier to reorganise the favourites list in the config app - thanks!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] APBilbo:
Hi!

I apreciate your feedback :).

I definatelly cannot claim myself to be the master of coding so there are probably some improvements I may have overseen or due to factors I just ignore... I've tried my best during more than two year to make this UI come true and I don't know any way to improve it (though I always try to do it with each release). The problem, and at the same time the advantage, of TL is that it's build to be 100% configurable, that is that it doesn't have any hardcoded visual implementation, you can theorically get any 2D UI (no 3D effects right now) you want with some really nice effects. The problem is that for that purpose the TL core is very open, so what other UI's (likew manila) has hardcoded, TL has to calculate it at runtime, wich takes also processing time.

I tell you this because TL is not designed to be the fastest interface in the market, or the interface for an specific device. SenseUI will always work faster than a TL SenseUI theme, WP7 will also work faster than the WP7 theme for ThrottleLauncher, the same happens with every else interface. TL is there to provide non comercial designers (who don't have a development team to take their ideas to real) a framework where they can make their dreamed interface come true :).

That said, I completly understand that from a practical point of view, on some devices TL may become unusable. But hey... I think it's worth giving it a try, and so you did... so thank you very much for sharing your opinion and providing feedback :). I hope someday TL will match your specs :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Dishe:
Well said! I can definitely appreciate the amount of work you put into this, and as I said before I'm very impressed with how configurable and thoroughly thought out this is.

In my opinion, this is far better than SPB shell. But, yes, I did notice that the slowdowns have to do with the dynamic screen layout... in fact, if I remove all the widgets and have one item per page, it scrolls at almost 30-40fps,which is far better than the 6-10 fps I get when I actually put things where I want them. Perhaps if I kept the animated area to a bare minimum... if I had time, I'd experiment with some custom themes.

Definitely a lot of potential in there.

Meanwhile, I'm going to look into the manila-hacking tools the community has come up with and see if I don't get in over my head with that. :)

Great work!

Is there a tutorial on how to make the widgets work?

... or to install some of the extra widgets too... I have an htc touch pro 2 and I'm really havin trouble gettin things to work.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] alecoddlyiv:
tell us what you have tried, i will see if i can help ;)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mrameer:
I successfully installed throttlelauncher on the phone..

as well as throttlelock.. but those were .cab files. When I downloaded the widget .zip files I attempted to treat like they were .cab files and transfered them onto the touchpro2 (it just unzipped them), unzipped them on the computer and transferred them over, transfered over the "widget" from the zip file.. I then dedicated my time to trying to find a tutorial of some kind online to help me... After that didn't pan out, I gave up and started to try working with the widgets that were already in the reg install. Specifically the weather widget.. I could never get the location code to work (I even researched that and tried to find an alternate one from the one in weather location .zip file).. Also the alarm clock feature didn't go off two days in a row.. lol
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Danni3:
I'm in the process of designing a new theme and i have a few questions i would i like to ask :P

1.) is there a way to make the row scroll around a circular path instead of a straight horizontal or vertical path

2.) is there a way to track the coordinates of an object on screen as it moves around

3.) does throttle launcher do inverse trig functions? (arcsin, arccos, tan^-1 etc etc)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] alecoddlyiv:
to start, the widgets need to be unzipped on your pc then the created folder copied onto your phone into the widgets folder. as for the weather, there have been issues with 1.0 have you updated to 1.01? as for the alarm, pass i use g-alarm
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mrameer:
Ok.. Did All that and now I have the widgets showing up on my list of widgets.. but when I select the green arrow and go back to the home screen, there's no widget.. Tried multiple times on Heropeople and heromusic.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] BB88:
I'm getting the error with libgles_cm.dll too. I suspect it's related to the taskbar icon I have installed. The only way I can start TL is to disable TL in Home's Today's item, Soft-reset, then re-enable TL.

I'm using ralphusion **RaL.GT1H** Lite ROM, with a modified version of DarkKnight Android taskbar.

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] APBilbo:
I'm working on some updates for 1.1 version :). Will probably be releasing for "family&friends" beta testing this week. The final release date depends on how good the testings are :).

Thank you very much! :). I'm glad you enjoyed TL.

Weird... I've seen those issues when there are unexpected errors in TL. Please post your ThrottleToday.txt files (instructions on first post).

Ensure the widget.xml file is directly inside the folders of the widgets and that you have not make double nested directories while extrating the zip files (that is that you don't have something like HeroClock\HeroClock\widget.xml).
