Could someone with the GSM version of the Touch please post their APLauncher.exe along with the values found in the Biotouch Registry folder? I would be most appreciative.

Anyone ever get the massage "Cannot open 'filepath/name' because the file-format module cannot parse the file" from Photoshop 7.0? The bitmaps were created from the brncovert.exe program... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1687493&postcount=463.

You can make your Touch Cube go faster or slower by changing the registry values for:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE>Software>HTC>Biotouch>Biotouch>DownFPS
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE>Software>HTC>Biotouch>Biotouch>LeftRightFPS
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE>Software>HTC>Biotouch>Biotouch>UpFPS
FPS stands for "Frames Per Second" so setting each of those entries to 60 will make the cube flow very fast, almost as fast as your finger goes across the screen. Don't know if anyone else would prefer it to go faster, but I like the increased speed when navigating it.
Setting the number lower will slow it down.
No reset required, btw.
Can you post me an exported file of your whole HTC registry? In the rom for my prophet, there are not these values. So i can try to adjust my files.
For the interested users: Click on the links in my signature - there are many themes to find and also special variations of the cube.

Hi Guys,
I found a way how to modify the cube animation.
This means you can now completely customize your cube (see also links at the end of this post)

Hi there,
do you know, if it is possible to modify the cube in this way, that there are not three different pages but three pages for quickdial ?
thanks

Here are my registry settings for HKLM>Software>HTC>Biotouch
but I am running the 4-sided cube, so a few registry entries may be a little different than normal. (APLauncher2 Key, etc.)

EDIT: Nevermind. I got here from another page and it presented the link to here and the link to the flash version of the cube as if they were both for the same program (IOW, there was one link to the flash cube version for the hermes, and then to here as if this thread was for modifying the flash version of the program)
D'oh!
END EDIT
OK, so I'm a bit confused. I have an HTC hermes. I have installed the cube app and it works reasonably well, though ever since I installed it my WM5 has slowed to a crawl even after reboot... but thats another issue.
So anyway, the default Cube that comes with the app is a 5-sided cube essentially:
Phone
Contacts
Progs
Office
Settings
So, if I want to customize the animations and the skin, I then only get a 3 sided cube? (apps media hub, contacts)
I was hoping to somehow look at the default cube and animations that came with the cube, but I have no idea where they are. There are no .brn files on my system at all. I guess they are embedded in the flash program.
So is there any way to skin this so it looks like the original but with a different skin (IOW, 5-sided)?
Thanks,
Brain21

Unfortunately the flash version that is out there does not support skinning like the default version. You might want to look at Kona_Mtbkr's TFloCubeControl as it does allow for skinning. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=343583

I was wondering how to change the background of the cube. I installed one of your cabs to my phone and it changed two sides but one was left normal. I like the Louis V and can roll with that if I can not learn how to do it myself, but if I could I'd have all sides gucci. It would be cool if I knew how to create all that stuff but being realistic I know no one has the time or patience to show me how to do it so it it is not too much, could you come up with a cab that turns all sides of the cube into gucci or Louis V. Which ever you are cool with. Thanks alot for your time and patience.

All the files are basically the .brn files in your /windows directory on your mobile phone.
If the author provides you with the source images you can basically generate your own stuff; or find one you like...
Basically can make your own in Photoshop; save out the BMP's in the A0.bmp A1.bmp A2.bmp formats; then use the fancy DevilInside BMP-->BRN application on the 1st post of this thread.
You can also play around with Carlos's new version of customizing application which is JUST now starting to support animations...
So if you don't feel like diving all the way in; you can probably wait a few days for a solid release of his application and then just pick the animation; icon; backgrounds; and change out all your application links to whatever you wanted using the cube mod tool he's worked on...
Link to his thread is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=324556
I'm assuming that the reason that just 1 or 2 of the screens are not updating is because Mediahub was still running; try killing the process of all that stuff and then copy all the .brns over again; soft reset and check it out...

Hello, i would like to say that your cube set up is beautiful. I did everything as you specified. I copied the the file using Total Commander form my storage card to the Windows Directory and then soft reset. The first two sides of the cube worked great, the third side, the one with S.M.S, E Mail and Internet Explorer would only flash the new background and icon set for half a second and the revert back to the original:mad: PLEASE HELP.

Hey... if you guys want Icons go to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=351551 and check it out. There's also blanks to make your own in the thread. Both the ApLauncher and the media hub icon blanks are in the thread. Just ask that any icons you come up with you post in the thread. That way we can have all the icons in one place.

Thx Guys
Musicman247
17th December 2007, 11:08 AM
this is what I do when Total Commander won't let me just copy them in:
rename the new files something slightly different (ie QD_Bknda.brn instead of QD_Bknd.brn)
place the new files in your \Windows directory using Total Commander
rename the new files to what you actually want them to be (QD_Bknd.brn)
Go to File>Reload dir
The new files will now have the correct names, and the old files will be placed in a new directory in \Windows (\Windows\QD_Bknd.brn\QD_Bknd.brn)

Any one know how to make the barrel animation work with a 6 sided cube?
Thx Guys
Musicman247
17th December 2007, 11:13 PM
To make the barrel work with the 6 sided cube:
Make a copy of C0.brn-C5.brn and C01.brn-C05.brn and rename it F0.brn-F5.brn and F01.brn-F05.brn
Make 3 copies of B0.brn-B5.brn and B01.brn-B05.brn and rename them C0.brn-C5.brn and C01.brn-C05.brn as well as D0.brn-D5.brn and D01.brn-D05.brn and E0.brn-E5.brn and E01.brn-E05.brn
You may want to use a "blanked-out" version of the animation.

Still use Total Commander; only this Time...Go and get Memaid or simlar and kill the Mediahub.exe and even Touchflo.exe if just the 1st one doesn't work. You need something with a "bigboy" task manger that shows everything process that's running so you can kill it...
Copy them over using Total Commander...Then soft reset.

I'm having trouble getting the hang of creating icons for this most excellent utility. I am creating the bitmaps. I'm saving them with the special settings identified earlier in this thread. I'm converting them to brn's with bmp2brn, editing the registry and all that good stuff. But when I load the cube, the image is either distorted (middle top) or non-existant (skype).
Has anyone else ever see this, especially the distortion issue? The icons are being saved at 80x80.

I absolutely love this cube creation. The problem I am having is the "photo, video, and music" side comes up almost fine...the words are written twice kinda overlapping eachother. The pictures come up fine though. The contacts side is awesome no problem. But the side that launches all the applications while the cube is turning comes up fine but when the cube is stationary on that side it goes back to the default images. Can anyone tell me why that is?

Hey all,
Hope this helps everybody out. I've been using this to customize the skin on my Sprint HTC Touch. It's a bit more user friendly than the command line app, and also converts both ways - from bmp -> brn and from brn -> bmp.

Application (http://www.mathies.com/software/BrnConvertApp.zip)(requires .NET 2.0)

This maybe a stupid question...but. I downloaded the file and installed the program, but can't seem to get it to work. I drag the file(png/brn), but nothing is happening.
I tried it in PC, and thought I was suppose to use it in PPC. Please help me. What am I doing wrong?
Also, what is GRIM?

Did you drop it on the glassy icon? because if yo drop it on the rest of the program it doesn't work and it's a converter that works on the pc for the ppc :P

I think I have the same problem. I bought my phone in Canada (a Rogers version) so it must be a Canadian conspiracy ;)
Do you get the application screen running fine and then it switches back quickly to the default? If so, I think the problem is that because the animations for that screen are png files and in our version they are brn files, you need to get rid of the brn files of the same name (i.e. back them up). I'm having trouble doing this, as every time I try and delete them, they just come back. I think the next step is to get a good file explorer and try again. It's gonna have to wait till morning I'm afraid though

I am having the blurred icon problem as well on the Sprint Touch. Can we start figuring that out?. The windows converter utility won't even convert the images I create with Photoshop CS3. Keep getting yellow exclamation symbol when dragged to it. I can get it to work for brn to bmp though. When i do that photoshop cs3 will not open the bmp it creates. yet other apps in windows will. Weird stuff here. Any ideas/feedback on this?

I'm referring to the Brn converter posted by jmathies I think. The blurr problem happens when I use the exe file by devil inside.

But even after I reverted to the Touch standard launcher I still had no RAM left, and had to savagely cut back content in my main memory so that I could still run programs!

i donīt think that the problem depends on the 1940 theme, the 1940 icon files have nearly the same size then the original ones.
what touch version do u use?

I have the "original" UK Touch (Orange UK software version). WM6 Professional. CE OS 5.2.1238 (Build 17745.0.2.3). 64MB RAM, 128MB ROM. I also have an 8gb microSD installed.
And you're quite right, I don't think it was particularly related to the 1940s theme, just it was the first I have tried, and after the memory problems I suffered afterwards, I am reluctant to try installing a new 4-sided or 6-sided, or iCube etc..

Hello
Just to let you know that the new version (v2.2) of Touch Settings can now function as a customization tool for the iCube skin.. ..it's still in beta, animation is not yet fully enabled, but you can move all the icons around / change apps / change icons / etc.
Feedback always welcome over in the Touch Settings thread! Also read this thread for notes about the app, and remember to always back up your registry first!

you can find it here: http://www2.webng.com/nionxp/download/Default.asp?search=commander
you don't unlock any protection.... the problem is the program you are using to copy files..
1) windows explorer is unable to write file in ROM.
2) total commander can write files in rom
you must change program to write files... from WM explorer to total commander

I have a new O2 Orbit 2 XDA which had the cube software preinstalled.
I have now installed the 'Touch Settings 2.25' and when i goto the 'APLauncher' tab and click on the LAYOUT section it displays that my HTC Touch Software is not recent enough to support custom layouts.
How can i find out what "version" of the cube software i am running and how does one obtain an update.
As a consequence the Touch Settings software is running in "Debug" mode.
Any help appriciated.

Cube is now much more useful.
There is one thing I can't figure out myself, what parameter should I give to tmail so it will launch at stage for new sms? Currently it's -service "SMS"
I want it to go straight to "new sms" when I click it. Anyone ?

19th February 2008, 04:16 PM
Depends on which icons.
The MH/app launcher icons should go in the windows directory, where the transition effect (*.brns) go depends on registry settings. I have mine linked to the Ext_ROM, but i believe that on a Touch, they should go in the windows dir by default.

Umm... the hard reset resets the files from the Disc on Chip memory. the images will be there, but as a string of bits, and so will not be easy to decipher. It would be much easier to back up everything and then hard reset, and then restore everything...

so here is my new vuttion style, with the original spinning cube animation.
Hi Frufo2000,
Thanx for the amazing work done. I've installed everything according to your thread and it works perfectly. (I didn't make a backup of the original files before overwriting them...Is that a problem?)
One small question: When I'm "browsing" through the cube, all pictures have a small (dutch) description placed on top of them.
Eg: The Globe (for Internet Explorer) has written "Internet Explorer" over it. The screencaps in your thread don't show these "descriptions" so I'm wondering how I can disable them.
(eg. The entry before mine shows 6 icons. Bottom right the calendar icon is shown, with also written "Calendar" on top of the icon. How can I disable the description?)
Some help and advice would be very welcome!
Thanx in advance!
iceqbe
21st February 2008, 12:33 PM
Btw:
Is this the way to delete the descriptions?
under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\Biotouch\APLaunche r each app has its own reg group, with a name field, edit that (in my case: clear it) and soft reset.
Thanx

Registry settings... Or, Rename the normal one AL_02.png, and put it in the windows directory, and the pressed icon should be called this: AL_02_HL.png and should als0o be put in the windows directory. Then soft reset.

In the registry (use Reg Edit or resco explorer or similar) look for [HKLM\Software\HTC\Biotouch] and there should be a 'version' for the cube or something similar.
Depending on your ROM, you may be able to use something like shadow Cube TE (Although this is for an HTC Prophet ROM) get it here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=364430)

mmm, i don't really want to reflash the whole ROM, i would just like to too if there is a version i need to download of the cube which solves the issues i have.
Having checked the registry (thanks for the pointer), i am running version 2.0.29087 of biotouch.
So, what would i need to avoid the issue that when i goto the 'APLauncher' tab and click on the LAYOUT section of 'Touch Settings 2.25' it displays that my HTC Touch Software is not recent enough to support custom layouts. Plus as mentioned this has a consequence that the Touch Settings software is running in "Debug" mode.

Great work with the LV cube, themes and other properties.
I was wondering, though, would it be at all possible to complement the overall LV appearance with appropriate PCM Keyboard v.013 and PCM Contact v.20.b themes??? Could anybody do something like that???
I'm sure it would be an utter success and guarantee a massive "buymeabeer" donation inflow.

Apparently, in the latest ROM for MDA Touch (2.26.114.52 NLD), the files for the animations are changed. Better said, there's more of them. And the normal png icons are now brn's aswel.
Could someone with the same version ROM, just the unbranded HTC version, upload the new brn and png files needed? Can't stand the pink ones, but half blue half pink is even worse. Btw, I've got an Elfin.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1463129&postcount=7
The Phone Icons are not included.
I would really appreciate it if somebody could attach the original htc phone icons.
Another problem is that I've copied the icons for the comm manager to my windows dir but the look will not change. Any suggestions how this can be?
Thanks ;)

You don't need them ;)
As I wrote in the first post:
To revert back simply delete the .brn files you have overwritten from your phone and the original ROM files will come back again.
Don't worry - you won't be able to delete the ROM files

damn, sorry I haven't seen this post :(
Total Commander says it cannot delete all of the .brn files...
Do I have to delete the .png files, too?

you only can "delete" the files that you have overwritten.
And yes, if you have overwritten .png files you also have to delete them.
If you have an original ROM the best way is to sort the files in the windows directory by date. Then it's easy to see which ones you have modified.
Total Commander will give you an error if you try to delete an original (unmodified) ROM file.
A reboot helps if (in rare cases) there is a problem in deleting a known modified file.

Doesn't seem to be as easy as this.
The Comm Manager has a really ugly default color within my modified rom.
I've deleted ALL .brn and .png files, which have been able to.
I've tried to delete all of them again after a fresh reboot.
Anyway, the Phonepad and the Comm Manager still remain their ugly colors/items (because they are original files of the ROM).
arent there any packages with the original htc colored .brn/.png files so that I can try to overwrite them?

@r0p3: a tutorial would be very nice
here are the original blue icons:
Hello, and because I'm new here, many thanks to all the guys who gave already so much support.
I allready read a lot of pages here in the forum, but I didn't find the answer, so hopefully I don't ask the second time.
I have replaced all the icons in my MDA Touch from this f... Telekom Magenta into original HTC colors. Now I've got a second phone (for business reasons) and I get a MDA Touch XL. I did the same procedure on it and all the colors except the appl launcher have changed. I realised that in rom version 2.61 the icons of the AL are not any more .png, they are now .brn files which are, in my mind, stored in the rom. Does anybody have an idea to change the colors without flashing the complete rom. Thanks in advance, Achim
Hello guys,
now I find the answer. If somebody needs the complete icons for MDA Touch XL 2.26 ROM (only this ROM) original HTC style,

You'll need to use something like Total Commander to do this.

You guys are GREAT. I am impressed by your creativity, very cool stuff..
Does anyone know if you can either add a "face" to the "cube" to make it four sided OR change the program launcher to make it another speed dial sheet?
My goal is to increase the speed dial to 18 names...
Thanks!

anyone lose the cube rotation ??? know how to get it back?
i used touch settings program and it completely screwed up my touch cube.
i was able to get whatever icons/graphics i like -- but i dont have 3d rotation.
i replaced with original files. still no luck. i believe some registry settings were altered but i don't know which.
any help?
thanks.
note: I can't put anyone's brn files in and get any kind of animation. nothing will work. it just jumps to the next side of the cube instantly.

I had this problem once after I'd used and uninstalled touch settings. It had changed the animation type itself before I uninstalled, so a simple reinstall allowed me to change it back to normal and then I was able to uninstall again...so might work for you.

Ok, first of all, in my opinion - don't use Touch Settings if you can avoid it. I've found it slows the cube down, messes things up, unstable etc etc.
Secondly, I know you've said you've edited the registry icon paths, but to verify, you need: HKLM\Software\HTC\Biotouch\APLauncher
When I skinned the Launcher screen on the cube, I copied the png files from \Windows (AL_01.png - AL_06_HL.png), edited them in CS3, and resaved them under the same names, but in \Storage Card\Windows, and then all I did was add \Storage Card to the beginning of each icon path (IconPath & IconPressPath) in the registry files so they read, for example: \Storage Card\Windows\AL_01.png
Can't remember if I soft resetted or not, but everything worked fine...
Have you done exactly everything above?

I don't know what was going on but I gave up all together on linking the files and just dove right in and edited the .brn files directly which worked better because I could change the animations as well. I went ahead and attached the .psd files and .brn files. If guys like them well you know what to do with em'!!

It seems like it's so simple it doesn't require an explanation but I don't have any idea what to do with it...Start the program, and drag a BMP/BRN into the main image on the program. The image will be converted, and an image of the same name (but other type) will be created in the same directory.

Now you can design animated skins, i launched my photoshop and
started to design a new touch flo interface in refreshing green.
Will keep working on it if my touch will come back from the shop :-/
Hope you like it :)

you must use a program such as total commander to unlock the copy protection of the files.
I'm using TC but it won't let me unlock the files on my HTC Touch. Any suggestions on how to do this? Thank you.

I'd also like to have this explained. I went into the registry and changed the leftrightFPS but it doesn't seem to make any difference. If I go back the standard cube animation I notice the change but not with the 4d.

Alright, So far I've got things working the way I want them. I've got the cube speed down, I've got some program and icon changes. One issue that I am having though that I need help fixing is that when the 4d cube rotates the original icons display but once it stops the current icons display. I know this question has been asked before but I am unable to find the solution. Here is what I've done.
Loaded 4d cube
loaded icon
renamed icon and placed in in the windows directory so that it saves over the old icon
Everything is working correctly other than the displayed icons during animation.
Thanks for your help!

Hello,
Hey Guy's I got a favor if its possible?
Can one of you guy's put together a self installer of the best mods on post #7 that has all the downloadable files?
I am not so savoy, and need a little help, just looking to deck out my htc touch with some cool app's but having trouble figuring out what zip files work with which other ones, kinda like information overload....and i am plagued by, if i install a half dozen files and i gwt errors or other problems then i may have to do a hard reset to start over from scratch....as i have now done 3 times in as many days.
Thanks.
