heres a cab that will create a nice looking start menu shortcut to launch it instead of having to go into File Explorer/Storage Card/haret.exe.
Ill post a screenshot of what it looks like.


This is the cab for Pocket Rar

Heres a new one I found, it replaces the WM6.5 lockscreen, supposedly it taken from the HD Mini. Heres a screenshot.
EDIT=Do not use with PIN lock!!! Will result in hard reset


Heres a cab pulled from the T-Mobile HD2.
MobiTV, I tried it and it works great. This is a 30 day free trial and its 9.99 a month after that. So far seems like it would prolly be worth it.

Try installing Pandora.cab first, enter your info in and get it all set up. then reinstall PandoraVGA with regs.cab over it.
This should be the only time you ever have to do it. even after a hard reset or flash.

Alright guys, lets get back on topic!
Heres the official Slacker Radio cab released this morning!
Works great, Auto updates, and option for premium account.

kk, found my issue.

To anybody who wants to run VSpainter and it's not working out of the box, check
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=473080
that thread out. Has the cabs and instructions for changing screen resolution. VSPainter does not support 800x480

ere's a few collected from threads and PMs from the awesome users on this forum:

1. Silly dice roller
2. Export/Import your contact ringtone settings (NOT the ringtone files themselves). I can't imagine any hard resets without this!!
3. Fantastic menu for soft/hard reset, lock, time, etc. on holding power button down. Can't go without it now!
4. Taskbar I haven't tried just yet..
5. For any fellow musicians or other purposes, gotta have a metronome!!
6. Taskbar I haven't tried just yet..
7. This is a cab of all the settings from a thread here with registry optimizations to speed up your storage card access!
8. Haven't used this yet, but remember it from a thread stating it to be a fairly reliable barcode app.


Another one, Ariel battery, this might be my favourite cab of all as it is exactly what I was looking for to get the taskbar "right." I had tried BattClock but gotten wierd display/sleep behaviours with it (ignoring my preferences in settings). I really wanted to have the time in the taskbar still, but of course it covered up the battery (settings>clocks & alarms), so with this you can display the battery in any colours you like as well as anywhere on the taskbar! (All props for linking to me go to erikdrakon posted in S2W's theme thread-- which kicks major booty btw-- here, if you like the app then click on that and hit Thanks to him too!)*

2. Opn Market - Like Windows Marketplace, but all 100% free.
3. Outlook Cleaner - will delete duplicate calender and contacts from phone.
4. XDA Shutdown - a very light shutdown app when you press and hold power button.

7. GPS WeatherRadar- Weather App that can get radar for current location using GPS.
8. No top curtain - will remove top curtain in TF3D. Tested on MightyRom and stock Sprint rom.

Here are few of my favorites. Enable all camera modes gives you video camera on 6.1 tp2, fingerkey is another keyboard, Qik is an online vidoeo upload from your tp2, and one I could not find is Glympse. Glympse sends a text or email from you phone giving your location for a set period of time. I use it to send to my wife when I am traveling.

Found the Glympse cab.
Cool gps application.
I like that you can limit the time and who has access to you gps info.

I do like the GF Bear-Bonz Taskbar a bit better and I'm currently sticking with it

This taskbar looks soooo much better with the Color CDMA fix!
