Re: How-to: Cube Edits/mods/creation

Really appreciate all the info... Please can you help? I have recently got a Tytn11 through Orange. I have downloaded lots of software to try and get the HTC home screen and a functional cube that I can modify. Im new to this lark and so far managed to apply the htc screen and a version of the cube, both are working but im struggling with modifications:(

1. Does my titan need unlocking before i start?
2. What downloads do you recommend (got the regedit download but can't seem to get it to run)
3. Is there a sequence of downloads that I could follow in order to acheive a fully functional, editable tytan as those seen on youtube?

Any advice appreciated...

put your folders name instead of "folder name"

Thank you so much MM! I figured it was something simple...

Dang, I changed the path to one of the apps in the reg soft reset, and it still does not work.
Getting a message that says "app can't be open, either on of the components missing or it's not signed"..........
ugh.

Yea, so on my last smoke break just now, I realized I forgot one key part of the file name, the .EXE
Now I just gotta do some work with some icons now, but that will wait till I get home and have the proper software to make decent icons.

You should be able to go in to settings->system->Remove Programs and select the vista cube. It would be better if you asked in the official vistacube thread or i'm sure if you search and read you would have fund this answer.

Re: How-to: Cube Edits/mods/creation

This is a great writeup, but there is something that I've been looking for that I haven't been able to find in any of the cube threads.

Where can I change the paths to the 4 icons on the bottom of the QuickDial screen?

I actually don't even want to change them, but I'd like to create my own shortcut elsewhere to the Call History, so I've been trying to find out how to launch that with a custom link and haven't been able to find any info.

Thanks

Sorry I started that thread before I saw this one ](*,)

-- Basically I can't get the Audio Manager controls to show on the cube while playing songs. Like this:

Set the Path for the music button to \Windows\wmplayer.exe, then the controls should be there when you have music playing in Windows Media Player.

Re: How-to: Cube Edits/mods/creation

MM,

Are you saying to use WMP for even if we're using Audio Manager? I tried both paths (\Windows\wmplayer.exe and \Windows\audiomanager.exe) and still nothing...It just brings up the regular HTC AM screen... ](*,)

I have both installed, but on the registry shortcut I just typed \Windows\wmplayer.exe, and did a soft reset. Now when I open a song in Media Player, minimize it then go to the cube and the controls are there. Thats all I did, so I don't know why it doesn't work for ya :-k

Does anyone have default registry settings? I think cube settings program messed with mine and now I have no animation. Just fades in. Then left/right is instant.

Thanks.

I don't take credit for this, it was posted in the Cube Config thread.

I am using Polen’s 6 sided cube and have made brns for all the animations, but there are not enough options in the animation type box of thisguyinoc's cube config tool, so when scrolling through the cube on two sides the icons do not match up. Is there any way to add options to the selection box or any other remedy for this?

Is there any way to get a 4th side to the Minimal Cube? I have the Vista 2.0 cube installed now but have the rest of the phone skinned with the Diamond look, and the minimal cube really fits well with that. I have a handful of custom cube icons I made for third party apps that I'd like to keep on that 4th side. Thanks.

Could someone please help me out this is annoying! I read this thread and it reads easy but something is missing. I converted my bmp's to brn's and resized them according to the tut. for modifying my MediaHub. When I soft reset after pointing to the new icon, the icon is the whole top row with the words underneath the icon???? I was able to flash my phone without problems but I can't do this, go figure!!

Nice work. Am I correct in assuming that this is all carrier independent? Should work with Sprint, Verizon et al?

Hi guys, I've loaded vistacube 2 on my touch and the buttons to "settings" and programs" give me the error message, "file cannot be opened... I've tried to find the registry path to these folders but failed. Can someone tell me how to find the paths for these folders? The default path in vistacube is \windows\htcPrograms.exe and \windows\htcSettings.exe. Thanks in advance!

Re: How-to: Cube Edits/mods/creation

how would i add a shortcut to lets say www.ebay.com on the cube... do u pick internet explorer then under parameters put in the web address...???

7.3 OPENING A WEB PAGE USING A BUTTON
You can open a webpage from a button by putting "\Windows\iexplore.exe" as the value for Path, and then the website's address
as the value for Param (www.ppcgeeks.com)

To get to the Programs list, use "\Windows\folderview.exe"

I have no idea how to get to settings now. Anybody with an original ROM want to upload htcSettings.exe for all of us? :-)

Re: How-to: Cube Edits/mods/creation

I only use the dialer on the cube and have changed the registry settings so only that side of the cube shows up. But when closing or opening etc... the other animations for the other two sides are still visible.

Is there a blank animation that I can use for those sides, or a way to make the animations always show the dialer?

Re: How-to: Cube Edits/mods/creation

(I run xv6900 with OMJ6.1 gps/rev-a rom)

I read the directions carefully, but something is not right. I just want to add an additional cube w/ QuickDial. The directions are for the APLauancher, so maybe I am missing something. Here is what I did:

1. Added "App4" with "QuickDial \Windows\CustQuickDial.exe"
2. Changed Total Cubes from "3" to "4"
3. In Biotouch folder one I added "CustQuickDial" and the 2.5.28927 data

These changes make the cube freeze up when you get to the new cube screen...

What am I missing?

I am suprised more people don't want to have more QuickDial screens. I could fill up a few of them. Any help is appreciated...

Thanks,

windorabug

There's a program that the Sprint Touch comes with called MakePhoneCall.exe its located in the Windows directory and it takes command line arguments(Params). With this program you can configure any APLauncher icon to execute this program to dial any number you want. Example:

Change these values for the particular App icon location you pick

Path = \Windows\MakePhoneCall.exe
Params = 555-555-5555

After a restart, of course, when you press the app icon you configured this way it will call that number.:mrgreen:
