HTC Cube launcher + TouchFlo

(Click here to view the original thread with full colors/images)


Posted by: lemeiux1

Anyone wanting to have the Touch Cube and TouchFlo on their device, I highly recommend checking out this app, works GREAT! Thanks to Poorly Duck for posting, and the original developers over at XDA-developers.com


http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=11954

To install:
1. Download the two zip files from the first post in the link
2. copy both CAB files to your device (my documents folder)
3. Through File Explorer on your device, click the CAB file of the audio manager in your My Documents folder and allow it to install to your device
4. Soft reset
5. Same as step 3, just click the cube CAB file instead (YOU MUST INSTALL TO DEVICE NOT STORAGE CARD!)
6. Soft reset

NOTE: if you want to just use windows media player instead of HTC audio manager, you dont have to download the audio manager file, just simply go into Cube Settings in Program files and under the media hub tab, just change the audio to windows media in the first drop down box

Changing of all paths to launch the program you want are to be done in Cube Settings and you must wait about 30 seconds after you make a change before you soft reset or the setting wont save (really annoying lol)

if you have any questions feel free to post them here and I'll try to help u out

you need the cab file for HTC Home Plug, its the today screen plugin that gives you the Kaiser/touch look. It's seperate from the cube and touchflo
but the only downside is that it still wont be one of the sides of the cube

DL from here

the cube works from gestures, if you want a program excluded there is a document in program files\touch Flo and there is an exclusions list in it, just type in the program u want to the exclusions list (anyone using S2U2 this is a must!) and the cube wont be launched from withtin that program.

and scrolling must be done near the center of the screen. How it works is there are two areas, one is a rectangle in the middle of the screen and the other is the area outside that rectangle(the edges of the acreen). if you swipe from the outside of the rectangle into it (in any of the four directions (down to up, left to right, etc) it opens the cube. If you sipe inside the rectangle area, it scrolls

works good on wing??????

anybody have luck installing touchflo to wing..

i already have htc home installed... what do i need to do to get touchflo on there/



Posted by: ruindpzzle

Anyone have it working on a 6700 with flashed to WM6? I've not been able to find a confirmation anywhere.

Nevermind, I found it here: http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthrea...&highlight=cube



Posted by: voicestreamREP

i have cube installed, home installed, but i dont see any cube? how do i work it lol



Posted by: ruindpzzle

swipe your finger across the screen, try from about the lower middle to the top, and if that doesn't launch it, try from left to right.



Posted by: voicestreamREP

ok figured it out....

it works best for me top of screen from right to left. FYI

BUT------> HOW DO YOU GET THE WEATHER TO WORK??!!



Posted by: eddiecanuck

Heh, finally got mine to work when I tried swiping lower right to left.

On the XV6800 it doesn't seem to work all that well, at least not on mine. Was difficult to get it to take the finger swipes, and it seemed to lock up the device momentarily from time to time. Also, loosing the speed dial on the HTC Home with it installed makes it not worth it to me. Too bad cause it looks GREAT.



Posted by: NexVision

eddie whats your email I spent the last 2 days installing diffrent versions and doing resets untill I found the master combo. I will send it to you tom still working on the keypad though.



Posted by: lemeiux1

sorry for going off topic but whats up NexVision? I used to be a big nextel guy and was at nextelmodz alot and remember u, good to see some OG's around here!


UPDATE: For sprint users, Poorly duck has made a new cube with yellow sprint style icons, works the same, theres a link to it in the original thread I posted

I need help installing the cube on my t-mobile wing(herald) the cube doesnt show up



Posted by: Dapitt84

Question about this. Do i unzip the file before transfering it over to my phone? Or do i just transfer it directly?



Posted by: lemeiux1

yes just unzip the files on your computer, then transfer the .CAB files to your ppc



Posted by: pinarphan

Hey Eddie

did you ever have any luck? I'm thinking of trying on my 6800.



Posted by: Dwnshft

Anybody got the files hosted somewhere else?

Posted by: rickyboy

I just installed the 2 cab files to my phone.I am using the wing by the way. What do I need to do from here. I cant seem to get it to do anything.Do I need to download anything else in order to make this work.Your reply would be really appreciated.Thank you and have a great one..



Posted by: lemeiux1

ok if you installed correctly then all u need to do is swipe your finger across the screen (easiest is left to right or right to left) and the cube will launch



Posted by: rickyboy

Thank you so much.I finally figured it out.Anything else cool you can do with the wing?



Posted by: Dapitt84

Ok. I installed it and it's nice. A little hard to get it up sometimes. But my main question is, how do i get the home page to work? It's an Rar file and what do i have to do to install that one?

the cab file u need is in the rar file, extract it on your PC with winRar and copy the cab file to your phone

rar files are basically the same as zip files you have to extract whats inside them



Posted by: Dapitt84

Since i don't have winrar on my computer, do i just download it then? anyone know a website with it that's safe?



Posted by: rickyboy

I just googlee pocket rar and it brought up a list of free apps which let you download those kind of files.



Posted by: spawn1980

Posted by: Crazygreekdude
