Thanks for the input. It did not work for me. I don't know what the problem was. I uninstalled and then installed version 1.10 and now it works fine.
Thanks again.

Change the last three letters of Value Data to lnk (LNK) instead of exe

Soft reset.

Keep me updated! :-)

Yeah, I figured out the problem later on that night and fixed it version 1.01, then released 1.10, so it works now. Thank you for your input!

Another request(s)....

Can someone make a YouTube Icon, a Music Icon (with a music note) in chalk style format?

DREXLERMAC 12-12-2007 10:11 AM

For Some Reason The Word Mobile And Excel Generated An Error Message That It Couldn't Open It And Try To Reload Those Files ?? These Are Files In The Original Rom . Any Thoughts On How To Fix.

M Drexler Md Fccp

Musicman247 12-12-2007 10:53 AM

Ph33zy said he fixed it by "and fixed the office apps by changing path to \windows\pxl.exe and pword.exe"

So he went into the registry and change the Path values to \Windows\pxl.exe for Excel and \Windows\pword.exe for Word.

If you're not comfortable with registry editing, thisguyinoc will be coming out with an iCube Configure App soon.

LuvDog 12-12-2007 11:19 AM

I was changing my calendar icons to the new CL_Calendar and I notice in the registry the IconPresspath field is hex/dec and not a string value.

Its funny, because yesterday the reg field was a string value and I was able to use the classic icon. Today (after a soft reset) I also noticed that the IconPresspath field is hex/dec and it reverted back to the stock calendar icon. Musicman, do you have any ideas why this happened?

Musicman247 12-12-2007 11:39 AM

Oops. Sorry. Got alittle rushed with 1.10, I guess. New version just to fix that up on post #4. :-D

If I install the new version, will that overwrite all of the changes that I've made? If so, its not worth it to install the new version because I've changed about 12 registries. It would be nice if there was a cube backup/restore tool.

Musicman247 12-12-2007 11:49 AM

yes, it will overwrite. Ill mame a version that will not overwrite later.

Sorry to keep bothering you. Would it be possible for me to manually change the registry value to string and add the iconpresspath? If so, would the changes be reset when the device resets again?

Musicman247 12-12-2007 12:09 PM

yes you can manually change it and have no ill effects after a reset.

kenlewisesq 12-12-2007 04:20 PM

I am sure that this has been answered already but I searched and could not find anything so here goes:

How do we skin the Quick Dialer? I can find the registry settings for everything else but not the Dialer.

Thanks

bigknoxy 12-12-2007 04:32 PM

on Mogul?
 
I know this is the touch thread, but as others I am curious if this will work 100% on the mogul.
I have installed on my mogul and the skin works on the quick dialer and the side w/ 3 options (music, sprintTV and something else) but on the third side it almost looks like its the corner of the cube or something. I can still touch and it will launch apps.
Also when I go into the registry and edit the totalSides nothing happens.

I have the touchFlow cube installed that i downloaded form this website.

anyone have any ideas/thoughts?

All of these are found in \Windows. I have not yet found the file (xml or otherwise) that determines where these images go (it might be the QuickDial.exe itself), so right now I can't move any of the buttons, just replace them.

Replace the files QD_Bknd.brn for the background and buttons when idle, and QD_2_Bknd.brn to replace the screen that shows when you are deleting a contact.

Replace QD_Defcon.png and QD_Defcon_HL.png to replace the shadow man.

QD_01_HL.png, QD_02_HL.png, QD_03_HL.png, and QD_04_HL.png are the buttons pressed along the bottom of the Quick Dial screen.

All of the buttons for the QuickDial screen are .png, so anything in the Windows dir with QD in front of it is part of the QuickDial screen.

It's probably the APLauncher.exe try putting these files into your \Windows directory (back up the ones you have now first) and see if that fixes anything.

Just a caveat, these are files not meant to be on the Mogul. Use caution when using them. they could work, or they could break what you have. Try just the APLauncher.exe first. If that doesn't work, put the Biotouch.exe in there too.

Good luck!

bigknoxy 12-12-2007 05:06 PM

i'll give it a shot

ok I'll give this a shot and report back. Thanks.

Musicman247 12-12-2007 05:10 PM

Soft reset would be required after putting those files in.

ceekay1103 12-12-2007 05:11 PM

i have a prob i can see the 1st and 2nd side of the cube fine but when i try to go to the 3rd side it like it gets stuck inbetween 3 and 4. i have the ppc 6700 can some one please help?

Musicman247 12-12-2007 05:14 PM

When bigknoxy reports back we'll see what we can do. No promises, though.

bigknoxy 12-12-2007 05:17 PM

yeah...

ok, I should probably know this, but when I try to copy the file over it gives me an error saying either i don't have permission or that the file is in use. I'm assuming its in use, but not sure how to stop the process so i can replace the file.
how would i do this?

Musicman247 12-12-2007 05:23 PM

I use Total Commander ->http://www.ghisler.com/pocketpc.htm or you could use ActiveSync (think ActiveSync would work). But Total Commander is the best bet. It's a File Explorer that allows you to overwrite files.

Here's a direct link to the CAB -> http://ghisler.fileburst.com/ce/tcmdpocketarm.cab

bigknoxy 12-12-2007 05:39 PM

it worked!

Ok, instead of replacing the files i just renamed the files to APLauncher1.exe and Biotouch1.exe. I replaced both of these files and it worked. You will need to replace both files and then do a soft reset I replaced the APLauncher.exe first and it fixed the functionality and the biotouch fixed the cube itself (if that makes sense). Anyways,I now have all four sides of the cube and it even seems like it is running faster than before. Looks like i still need to fix some of my links but that should be okay.
:headbang:
Thanks a lot.

Musicman247 12-12-2007 05:57 PM

Awesome news, bigknoxy! Could you post a link to the cube you installed on your Mogul so that we can post instructions and a new CAB for Mogul users?

I believe these files (with the addition of the latest iCube release of course) is all that you need to get a working cube on your mogul.


One thing I have noticed is that while sides 1, 2, and 3 work fine, side four displays fine but I don't think is launching any apps when i press on a button, what i'm saying is that side appears fine but doesn't actually do anything on press... any ideas?

thanks for all the help so far.

Yep. I figured that would happen. Put this in your \Windows directory as well.

Was there an installation program that you used for these files? The setup.xml shows that something is supposed to extract the correct files out of the files you just posted. Can you give a link to the thread where the Cube is?

bigknoxy 12-12-2007 07:55 PM

yup, 4th cube appears to be working. Makes since now that I think about it =D>

So theoretically you could duplicate this process and add as many cubes as you wanted, right? just curious.

I just installed the .cab of the HTCCube i believe... Its been a while since i did it, so let me think about that a little...

also i got the cube from the xda-developers website, I'll let you know when i find the right link.

Badaim916 12-12-2007 08:23 PM

worked perfectly on my sprint htc touch I even made my own slide to touch background took most of last night but everything works my youtube icon takes me straight to a working www.youtube.com after I instaled the flash bundle thanks OP and everyone else on this site

meatlocker 12-12-2007 08:24 PM

Musicman and ThisGuy - thanks so much for your work thus far. The iCube is the coolest cube tweak around for sure. Is there an iCube Config Tool in the works?

Even if you could just supply the cab, that would be excellent!

This is Beta quality. I'm expecting bugs, but I need to know what they are so I can fix them.

Let me know what happens!

I'm suprised there's no icon for bluetooth!


anyone have the address for the bluetooth settings??

The .cab is attached to post #148 on page 15.

its the HTCCube(2).zip

Pitchblack98 12-13-2007 11:09 AM

I hope this isn't considered hijacking, but I have a friend that has the Tilt and wants this on his phone. I think he is a little jealous when I showed it to him on my Touch. Is there a GSM version of the HTC Cube in cab format anywhere or would the CMDA version work?

Thanks for the information. I am now stuck. I cannot seem to overwrite the icons in the Windows directory (I have tried both Resco and Total Commander). Is there any chance of you releasing a version of iCube with just the app cube faces altered but leaving everything else the same as the stock cube? I love everything about the iCube except the Dialer - I HATE that Dialer skin on the iCube - I really like the stock Dialer skin.

Outstanding work on the iCube - once I get this Dialer thing licked I will be all set.

Thanks again for all your help and hard work for the community.
