Ok, I think this one is gonna need a sticky. I got sick of having to type in all of the shortcuts in the registry editor to change the cube, so I wrote this little spiffy app. It allows you to customize the 2 sides of the cube with shortcuts. Just make sure you know what you are doing as far as what can go where. Enjoy!

Version 1.1 - I got tired of waiting for the file browser to refresh everytime. Now you only have to wait for the first time, after that it is cached.

Version 1.2 - Added IconPress to the 6-App Side, and IconPlaying, IconPlayingPress, and IconPress to the 3-App side.

Version 2.0 - Added param for 6-App Side and 3-App Side. Added links to animation files. Added GUI for app selection for 3-App side and 6-App side.

Version 2.1 - Squashed the bugs that were coming up. Sorry I didn't test it enough before releasing.

Version 3.0 - Now supports multiple 6-App sides (See Polen's Vista Cube (http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=12798))!! Added reset to defaults. Automatic shortcut selector or browse for apps. Fixed the bug where the Program Files directory wasn't showing up in the Browse tree.

Version 4.0 - Added support for the iCube (http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=13301) , animation configuring for newly added sides, export settings to .reg file, and icon image preview*.

*The icon image preview must be set up correctly to work. It all depends on the naming convention used. Polen's icon packs (http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showpost.php?p=144533&postcount=126) work with the preview. Since the .brn files cannot be rendered, a .bmp file must be placed in the directory with the .brn having the same filename or following Polen's naming convention (ex. ie.bmp -> ie_top.brn, ie_top_press.brn).

I tried testing it with the stock cube, Polen's 6 sided cube, and the iCube, but may not have caught everything, so if you find a bug, let me know!

SORRY!!! I left out a file from the .cab, it's all fixed now! Enjoy!

Version 4.1 - Fixed a bug in the export settings and the Save button was getting disabled.

difference between this and touch settings???


ok one question

when i make Icons. I save them as a BMP 24 bit, then i can just BMP to BRN and it will work?

ambush276
30th November 2007, 08:40 AM
also you just install CAB and go. Do you have to stop any processes before going. I guess i wont wait for Touch settings. This looks like it will work great???

just need to know if i need different icon sizes for the 3X2 and Media Hub????

Without wanting to detract from what you have done, you may also want to look at 'Touch Settings' which has this functionality already. (now works on the Vogue) See:

in your post though it said that you cant do Iocns yet on the sprint touch this one i believe if you just set the filepath you can!

also carlos kind of in response to my other thread in the vogue forum.

I was at my friends house playing w/ his sprint touch, downloaded some icons from my website, and put them on w/ this prog. I just saved files to the windows folder with BRN extension and it worked? Idk if it will w/ touch settings, but this one works for that purpose....

still not sure though if you need different size icons for mediahub..???


also still my question..... do you have to stop running the mediahub.exe or w/e the file is called before installilng this puppy?

As of yesterday's build Touch Settings can display / change Sprint (BRN) Icons. Simply tap the pictures to change.

great! ive heard so many great things about the touch settings program.. That i want to continue using it.

My question is are the pics still fuzzy when you use BMP to BRN. OR are they clear like sprint pre installed logo's.

my final question, and i know its been asked, can i use the 119 by the other dimension for both the 3X2 and Media Hub Screen?? What dimensions do i need? on the pics?

also i heard about Media hub not closing? is this true or is it fixed?

What I'd really like to see is the ability to add QDail sides to the cube like you can with the Aplauncher. Has anyone got that working? I have more than 9 frequently called contacts and would love to have at least 2 sides of contacts - one for personal and one for business would be perfect.

But now that I've typed all this...I just realized that you didn't write the 6-sided cube app, right? I just integrates with yours....

I've been using the Touch Settings program from Carlos -- I'm anxious to see how this one works, too. Thanks to both of you for your hard work!

Yeah, I didn't write the 6-sided cube. I worked with Polen to make my app scale to the number of sides you have installed.

I played with your program yesterday (okay, let me be honest...I spent 20 hours in the past 24 hours making new cube graphics and drinking coffee until it was bleeding out my ears) and it's wonderful. In combination with the 6 sided cube it's a really great ap.

This may be from a total lack of sleep and the really nice caffiene buzz I've got going, but I'm a bit confused regarding the rotation anims and how to set them via the anim tab.

Is there a way to specify different transition graphics sets between sides 1&2, 2&3, and 3&4? It seems like the default is set to use C0-C5 for all rotations of the Launcher. Am I missing something? I was that the VistaCube program installed D0-D5 so manually created my own and added them to the Windows directory. My D series seems to be applied to those transitions eventhough the animations page shows C0-C5.

Is there a way to get to a drop down menu specifically for the extra sides or is this something that must be done manually? And in either case...how would I set it up to have separate anims for each of the different sides?

The main reason I ask is because I'm planning to use rather generic icons on my launcher pages so that I can swap out programs whenever I want without having to update the graphics on the cube. For example...I have an MP3 player icon that says "Music" on one page. I can assign that to Mort, or WMP, or anything else I want and not worry about the icon. That allows me to put the icons into the rotation graphics so it's a smooth transition and I don't see the "flash" when the app icons load on top of an otherwise different background.

Whew...long-ass question for something so simple. Any help would be appreciated!

Did you ever figure out a way to add another contact side to the cube?

I just installed the CubeConfig3.0.CAB

In the usual screen that says successfully installed and if you need more room... It is followed by a message I have not seen yet:

The program you have installed may not display properly because it was designed for a previous version of Windows Mobile software.

FYI

EDIT: I'm running the unmodified WM6 on a Bell CDMA Touch (Vogue - 128MB RAM/256 MB ROM)

So far it seems to be working properly. A question:

I use the Windows Live Mobile for email, etc. Using the default path for Windows Live takes you to what I guess is the main screen - Has the search bar, email and a box for messenger. I would like to go directly to the email screen. My guess is that there is no separate application (ie different path) but probably a setting for a particular service or or whatever the proper name is for it; like the extra instructions for the tmail app to direct it to sms or email, etc. Has anyone already found a solution for this?

It would be nice to add a feature that would export/import all the settings for the cube to a text file or xml or whatever is easiest/most practiacal.

It would be a faster way to make changes but also serve as a backup for what can be a rather time consuming process.

I suppose any update from Sprint may wipe out our customization, not to mention a hard reset if necessary.

That's odd... I am using the HTC Vogue (with Bell Canada, but exactly the same hardware and firmware versions) and it works on the 3 app screen for me. Bell has the Music button go to their mp3 store. I changed it to WMP. One tip: The "Windows Media" option is not WMP. Use browse, select \windows directory and look for wmplayer.ink or wmplayer.exe there.

You can't just rename the file, you actually have to convert it from brn to bmp or vice-versa. I've attached the (excellent) brnconvert program that has been posted many times around the forums...someone please help me remember who wrote this app -- I'm afraid there's no "about" screen and I just have the zip file with the app in it.

Just unzip this to your PC. I've got the program on my desktop... drag a bmp file over it and it will convert to the proper brn format. When you want to edit the brn file, you can simply drag the brn over on to the application and it will be converted to a bmp. VERY SLICK.

Try downloading it again -- I just downloaded the attachment from my previous post and was able to execute the exe with no problems...

BTW - you can run the exe and drag over the file, or you can drag over the icon...either should work just fine. The nice thing is, whatever directory your original graphic is in, the converted file appears there -- not in the directory with brnconvert file.

You can put it anywhere but when you install it, it will ask you where you would like to install the files (storage card or device) its really just personal preference.

I'm having a problem with the touch cube.

I have a HTC Touch Cruise, and i tried the 2d animation just to see how it looks. After saving i tried it and i noticed it was'nt what i liked so i wanted the 3d animation back.

But, the 3d won't come back, i saved and also deactivated it, but still, no 3d animation.

Someone please help me, maybe a answer or some files i can copy to my device to fix it would mean a lot to me.

Thanx in advance

Two questions I wanted to ask you guys. First I'v gone ahead an have completed 2 of the 3 sided quick launch apps. Last one seems to be getting the better of me. I'm trying to figure out how(if possible) to launch a path to my custom ringtones. To bring up the actual white screen that comes up when you go to select a different ringtone. Heck maybe even just the file where my ringtones are placed. Right now I have my custom ringtones on my storage card.

Second question, I've done the six app, an 2of3 quick launch apps(see above), after a quick soft reset, they work good. The only think I see between the cube coming up, or once its scrolling through all three sides- for a second I can still see the old icons. Once the screen comes up, my new icons do display, an are linked. Am I missing something on installation, or is this normal. For someone who doesn't know, you wouldn't be able to tell, an really its not that big of a deal. I just wanted to see if theres a fix for the delay. Thanks in advance.

Forgot to mention that I have a CDMA HTC Touch incase you need that information. Thanks again.

That happens because it still has the old animations mapped to the cube. Many people don't like this so they get the blank animations that just display a black cube when moving the cube from one side to another. Unless you are using a cube like Pollen's Vista Cube 2 or his original which he made animations for then they should be the same as the ones showing up. Hope that helps.

Bare with me people- since It's only been about a week since I've got this ppc, an before that- I didn't know anything about modying a ppc.

Ok, so since I'm still using my old cube that came with the ppc, the original animations are mapped to it permanently? Because it sounds like there is no way to get rid of them or disable them? I'll have to do a few searches to familiarize myself with the cube an its file type. I'm gonna see what it takes to change it out, an if its beyond my know how, I'll keep it the same way for now till I get a better understanding. Thanks again.

You can change them out using the cube config tool. Click on the animations tab but you would have to change them out for all the rotations which is kind of a pain in the you know what. I will attach the blank animations for you in case you want to do that.

Quick random question.. I've read through and not seen anyone address this (although I only quickly glaced through really) I used to use the elf version of this which did the animation work and everything for you.. is this tool much like that one? Will it animate it automatically or do we have to do our own bmp animation files?

Thanks!

After the wm6.1 ROM upgrade, this app no longer handles icons properly. Its not the applications fault, but HTC changed the way the icons are read, apparently they can only be in the \Windows\ directory, or something. MusicMan had some fixes for it and his various Cube mods, but this application didn't seem to get an update.

You can still change the launcher paths for the cube using this app, but changing the icons makes the cube just show black spots.

Ah, so that's the fix!! The icons HAVE to be in the Windows directory??

Actually, after thinking about it, I don't think that's right. I have icons in My Documents that work and some that don't.

If this could work with WM 6.1 that would be great. I'd love to change the stock Cube Icons

Does anyone have a link to Musicmans Icon program?

When I run the program I am given these options. Icube Side, 3-App Side and then Animations and About. When I click on the Icube Side it gives me the option of Icube side 1 and Icube side 2. That said.. umm I dont have the Icube installed. I am running a telus WM 6.1 rom on my phone which has a 4 sided cube. Does anyone else get this Icube issue? It shows a panel of 3 icons wide with 4 down. My stock cube looks pretty much identical to the 3 sided cube except the 4th side has another 3 links on it that run to , Telus Mail, Telus Navigator and Pocket Express.

I really want to mod this cube so I can have my GPS programs on one side and MSn and what not on the others. I have already created a ton of icons in the elf thread. I just need an ap to make the changes. Bah

I would like to do this as well but have not found a way to do it.

I hope this hasn't already been addressed, but I've not found it here or at PPCGeeks. That being, my only internet connection at the moment is on my xv6900 from Verizon, so browsing extensive webpages isn't all that easy.

Here goes: I have installed both the configuration tool and the touch settings. My cube now has four sides, i.e. and extra applauncher with six buttons. I've mapped one side with radio streaming pls files and names, linkedt to tmcmp. So, I click on NRK-1 and get this Norwegian station, can click on the next button to get a German news station and so forth. The media hub I linked to three of my most commonly visited websites (cnn.com, spiegel.de, wikipedia.org) so that I have a nice big touch link and connection. All of this works great. And I have thanks to all involved in making this possible.

I spent several days playing with the custom icons (couldn't make my own because my desktop is a Mac and the brn-convert software isn't compatible (or I'm too dumb to figure out...). I've gone back to simple uniform icons for everything so I can change button mapping more quickly. My problem: When I use the touch flo from right to left, I get all sides perfectly. But, when I go from left to right, the new applauncher shows with the icons slipping to the left off the screen and a slice of the mediahub icons showing on the right. The labels are in the correct places and the buttons work. I tried going to registry settings and manually copied the height and width settings from the apps in launcher 1 into launcher 2. No effect.

This is just cosmetic, but it would be cool if fixable.

Thanks you anyone who can help and my apologies for such a long message. I'm a professor and I guess it shows.

P.S. Am now using the Apple Wireless Keyboard with the ppc and finding it really useful.
