TF3D is a poor experiment... - Page 2

All TF3D needs is the ability to be further customized, something to the extent of UltimateLauncher...though I sheepishly admit that I haven't tried any of the tweak programs which are out there due to reading about numerous crashes and such.

The biggest problem with TF3D is you can't use any home screen plug-ins like the awesome weather panel without using something like second screen.

I use Mobile Shell in my TP although I do think TF3D is kinda cool, so I swap back & forth between the two setups.

I like TF3D just fine. Of course, this is my first WinMo device. I used an ancient Sony Clie and talked on a Motorola V60 before getting this.

...so you may dismiss me as an old fuddy-duddy and return your phone. The Instinct is quite nice. My wife and son love theirs. The web browser is nowhere near as nice as Opera mobile.

You can shut off the skin on the phone too.

Renamed HKLM\Security\Phone\Skin
To HKLM\Security\Phone\Skin_

And reboot

Guys,

thanks for the replies. i've had a ton of winmo phones, and the TF3D, while looking amazing was really getting on my nerves for some of the flaws in the way things are laid out. I'm still on the fence overall, especially with the Treo Pro coming to Sprint in January, but I will try this out a few more days and let you guys know.

For the guy that suggested the instinct... FU! My only complaint was TF3D, not the phone itself, so keep your dumbass comments to yourself.

FU? I don't think that comment is necessary. He was only saying disable it. This is a friendly forum where people with common devices and needs come together. There is no need to cuss someone. I hate to notice that you have never thanked anyone who helped you or have been thanked for helping anyone. Please keep your language to yourself. This is especially important if you are not contributing.

lol WOW i never heard of someone wanting to return their phone because of a today screen plugin.

No, sorry, I respectfully disagree. I've never posted that much, if you look closely, so I'm not truly a regular. However, his comment was not just telling me to disable it. Anyone suggesting an Instinct to a person who is using a WinMo phone is insulting that person's intelligence.

So, I didn't know TF3D was a today item, now that I know, I can turn it off. Do I need to check a thank you to every person who suggested it? Or just to the first one? Look at it from my perspective.

My reaction my have been harsh for a friendly forum, but those comments can be held in check, just as my response should have.

So, in the end, I agree that I was in the wrong for making such a strong comeback, but the reasoning for it still stands.

You should thank anyone who helps you at any time. That is why the button is so easy to press. If you only want to thank one person who told you then do that, but it would be nice to know that you are appreciative of others help.

Not posting is fine, no one wants you to leave. We also don't want others to leave because they think they will not have a warm welcome.

I don't know if he was questioning your intelligence or making a joke, I would lean towards joke, he is always wisecracking in the TP forum. Plus he likes the Philly and we all know the Predators are better. Haha.

If you must cuss use the **** because I am pretty sure the guys here want family friendly. If you want somewhere to let off steam NSFW may be the place for you.

I am glad you can see it in perspective and I am in no way flaming you, and I don't want you to think I would.

On topic, I have had a great TF3D experience, it is much better than the 2d if you ask me, I had 2d on my vogue. The experience of TF3D on TP is much better than Diamond, imho. I had the diamond before.
