TF3D "ALL APPLICATIONS" Mod???
 

Hey All,
So far after messing with the TF3D interface and getting it the way I like, I noticed that when you have a larger amount of applications the ALL APPLICATIONS menu gets far too long to use easily. Is there a way to break it into sub folders like standard windows mobile 6.1 or 6.5 while still using TF3D????

What version of manila/TF3D are you running? The cab I posted works only on manila 2.1 if that's what you have. You can try it on stock TF3d, if that's what you're running, but I'm not sure it will work. It's uninstallable if it doesn't. Here's a pic of what it does to the all applications/all programs (as my phone calls it) tab.

• It shows as TF3D 2.0 on the phone.

What I'd like to be able to do is put FOLDERS in the All Applications menu.

That Mod is for VGA only the Imagio is WVGA.

I just tried 4ColumnsStart&AllPrograms_v1.1.cab this works. Adds a 4 column main start menu and a column based All Applications menu.

The Icons on All Applications load very slowly.

I'd really just like the ability to place folders in the All Applications menu.

Still Looking.

Wouldn't it just be easier to use async & create folders in startmenu and move what you want in different folders?

Re: TF3D "ALL APPLICATIONS" Mod???
 

Huh? Creating folders in the start menu doesn't create them in the All Applications menu. They are ignored.

What am I missing?

Rick

Re: TF3D "ALL APPLICATIONS" Mod???
 

I think he's saying screw the all applications menu and just use the start menu which can be rearranged to your liking. It seems there is no solution for you my friend...

Re: TF3D "ALL APPLICATIONS" Mod???
 

Yeah, I thought of that as well. The old start menu (skinned to match) would work. But I thought it wouldn't be that difficult to get TF3D to recognize folders. Tap and you're in a folder called UTILS or GAMES etc.

Guess not.

Have to figure out how to get Manila to simple go to the old windows start menu when All Applications is tapped. Try that out for awhile.

@6sto - The original poster seems to be aware of how to edit the "\windows\start menu\programs\games\" directory.
He appears to be asking about how to get this directory link to show up in the HTC Start Menu rather than the original
Windows Mobile Start Menu.

1. Do what 6sto said. Basically, organize your Games links into the "\windows\start menu\programs\games\" directory.
2. Browse to "HKLM\Software\HTC\Manila\ProgramLauncher\" in your registry. The numbered folders here correspond to slots
on your HTC Start Menu. 0 is the top right slot, 1 is the one the right of that, and so forth. Pick a folder that
corresponds to an empty slot.
3. Edit the following keys:
DispName: Games
Path:\windows\start menu\programs\games\


I found this last night in one of the other posts here - hope this helps. It has allowed me to organize quite nicely.:cheers:

Kaz,
Good looking out!

Just a quick question. Will this place the folders on the MAIN application menu (when the windows hardware button is pressed) or into the All Applkications soft menu after that?

Thanks again,

Rick

Mine are on my first level Start Menu. The top row has the stock Home, People, Calendar, and Settings buttons. But after that I have it separated into Gmaes, Apps, System Tools, Multimedia, Comm Tools. Makes it much easier to find apps once you sort them.

I copied my start menu\program folder to my pc and rearranged everything like I wanted it then copied back to my TP2 - works great!

Can you post a photo?

Here are some pics. Use the attached program to setup the folders easy.

Re: TF3D "ALL APPLICATIONS" Mod???
 

Kaz,
Way to go, that looks GREAT! I may never need to use All Applications again.

Quick question, the cab file does what exactly???

Rick

Re: TF3D "ALL APPLICATIONS" Mod???
 

Thecab creates the 5 folders and has their icons already made.

Re: TF3D "ALL APPLICATIONS" Mod???
 

OK... all done. Exactly as stated. I even like the folder ICONS.

Great Job!!

**HINT: Install the Atom D3D driver and you will see the icons draw and redraw much faster!

Pardon the noobness. Have a stock Sprint Touch Pro 2 and wanted to add some folders to my programs. However the folder shows up but it just contains " all programs" not the contents of my games folder. Can anyone walk me through what I am doing wrong?

Re: TF3D "ALL APPLICATIONS" Mod???
 

Figured it out. Noobness at work. I didn't have a capital "G" in games. Works great now. Thanks for the tips.:)

Re: TF3D "ALL APPLICATIONS" Mod???
 

Glad it helped.

Here is a screen shot of my "Start". I'm still using the Stock Verizon Sense 2.1 ROM. I have modded the start to 12 rows of 4 icons(48 total spots). The middle 8 spots in the screen shot link to folders (I made the PNG icons from found images). The second screen shot is the "Applications" folder opened. I guess I'll update to Sense 2.5 if Verizon ever releases the ROM, but I'm pretty happy with this until then...lol
