HTC Touch Dual - Comm Manager

[kalavera]

Here it is the new comm manager (only 6 buttons, but for me the needed) from touch dual. Included wi-fi fix (there was a problem enabling/disabling wi-fi) from the original JUVS version.

Has requested, some more info & screenshot of the new comm manager:

Here it is a full review of the new HTC Touch Dual.
http://smape.com/en/reviews/htc/HTC_Touch_Dual-rev.html

You can see in the multiple screenshots some of the new touch apps, like the new comm manager (i really like it!), new virtual keyboard, new start (with some big icons on top), a new quick access menu with up to 12 icons (new email, new sms, new contact, etc), new phonebook (with full separation of outlook, sim & windows live contacts), contacts list with a index column on the right (looks like pocketcm) and audio assistant (enhanced equalizer).

[LGSilva]

Thanks for sharing. I wish we could get the phonebook too. :)

ehm... someone can respond? I don't understand the use of this cab... Can I enable wi-fi on htc touch-dual using this menu? :confused:

[Corky100]

This works OK for me on HTC Touch too.....:D

[Sian]

Would the Comm Manager overwrite the default one such that when we uninstall it, we need to find another Comm Manager skin to install? Or can this be install/uninstall without any problem?

[spencepu3]

it installs without problem, overwrites the default

[Sian]

it installs without problem, overwrites the default

How about uninstall? Would the default one be brought back automatically?

This is in case I need to free up space for other more 'critical' applications to be stored on phone memory later on. Hence requiring me to remove the 'aesthetic' improvements :P

[anheuer]

i installed it, it works,

2 questions,

why does it not way on or off on the right like in the picture?
and what does the bottom option do?
i tought beam is bluetooth????

and how do i enable and disable my push mail?
the option is gone?

It works on my Touch ITA, but there's a little bug:

If you disble the Data Connection you cannot reactivate it fromt the Communication panel

To re-enable it, I used Battery Status today plugin

Great work, thanks a lot!

Would it be possible to extract and post here the new virtual keyboard of Touch-Dual too? It is seemingly a very useful input method!

Thanks in advance,

IMO this Comm-Manager is a step backwards.

this hack doesn't work to enable wi-fi on touch-dual :(

[kalavera]

This .cab doesnt try to "enable" wifi on htc touch dual (from what i know HTC have disabled it internally or even removed it). When i tell that it contains wifi fix, its because the original JUVS cab contained a bug when activating wifi (in models that have wifi, for sure, like my prophet).

thanks for clarification :) I still wait/hope for it

[richbayliss]

Hmmmm. I get an error. I might be doing something wrong.

"Installation was unsuccessfull. The program or setting cannot be installed because it does not have suficiant system permissions"

ANybody wanna help a hungover chap out

[Trekvogel]

What's the point of this? Is it usefull for anything except the Touch Dual? And why does it have Wifi in it when the Dual doesn't?

It doesn't really seem like an improvement over the original Touch's Comm manager. Beam is not necessary and push and ringer seem to be gone. Step backwards. I do like the style though.

[kalavera]

In my point of view is very useful and an improvement. Only has 6 options, but they are customizable like the previous comm managers, so you can remove wifi & beam and put the others you want. Also the order is customizable. In terms of size, this one is much smaller and uses less images to work. And, as you refer, in terms of style i think is better.

Try doing a softreset, and install this .cab right away, without running the current comm manager, since this cab will try to overwrite some of the current files. I think this may be the problem ... hope it helps.

I might be missing something but I installed it and I can't figure out how to configure anything. Am I doing something wrong here?

[kalavera]

The configuration is like the old Comm Manager, via registry. Try searching for this info in the forum, if still you can't find it, ask me.

Thanks, I'll look into that.

[carson512]

I can't use the cab....

[a771la]

if i want to add a new button? 10 button?

[kalavera]

No, just configure the order and what are the 6 buttons functionality.

if i want to add a new button? 10 button?

[mcorrie1121]

Ok, so after installing this Schaps Adv Config wont work. Half way thru loading it says "unexpected error".

[divxrippimp]

How do i configure this to have diff buttons than it does now... As he said above, i just get an error with that config app... is there another way?

Thanks!

[kokben]

guys? i installing this to a o2 atom.
everything works except for wifi...
does it really fix the bug ?

[blaz.andrejcic]

you all are wrong. you CAN'T have WI-FI on htc touch DUAL. even when you do hack the phone and try to turn Wireless on, it won't let you because, quite simply, there is NO WIRELESS HARDWARE on board!!
