Same here > LOOK HERE < TF (manila 2D) is beautiful & I do use it daily, but Mobile Shell allows you to do SO MUCH more with your system.

Just the fact that you can't use Home plug-ins like the awesome weather panel shows just how limiting TF really is.

Re: Touch-friendly alternative to TF3D

I use phonealarm and I think the one man developer for it is genius. He's had many years under his belt now developing this piece of art and it's fully customizable and allows for adding custom apps and links to certain functions for calendar, alarms, etc. It's also skinnable and many skins are available for it www.pocketmax.net

Re: Touch-friendly alternative to TF3D

I would have to say learn UltimateLaunch as well. Its very flexible and sounds like it can do what u want. There is also a thread for HTC Home but the customixer DOES NOT work. The default setup matches the pro icons already and the retro digital looks cool on these new tech screens so it should last until EMU or somebody brings the customizer up to VGA and resizes the icons

Theres a thread on this is the diamond forums I think...basically they were saying you could run both. You use second today screen and then have the cube set to load when you swipe as the second today screen.

I dont know how successful they got with it, but its worth a look, if you want the cube. I personally loathed the cube

Re: Touch-friendly alternative to TF3D

iLauncher + PocketBreeze + PocketWeather + Spacer looks pretty interesting.

Re: Touch-friendly alternative to TF3D

my only problem with mobile shell was that I cant customize any pictures.. I can change the color of the interface.. but I cant do any picturs or backgrounds or anything like that... its an awsome aplication for what it does.. its simple.. yet effictive.. and from what I have seen in my use.. no frills.... unless I missed those in the fine print. personally.. I love the touch flow interface.. I just wish it was..... better.. and I could customize it a bit more.. but.. that will come with time.. im sure this phone hasnt been out that long..
