ftouchflo Dunce

[GenghisKhent]

I feel like a doofus. I have the cool PK 3.0 Black Dual ROM on my x7500. It's great, but I can't get ftouchflo to work. When I click on it in programs, a prompt appears that it is already running. But, for example, sliding my finger on messages just highlights a bunch of messages, instead of scrolling. I'm sure I'm missing something simple but I don't know what it is. I've searched but haven't found anyone else with this issue. (I haven't changed the configuration file so it is still in its virginal state). Any guidance would be appreciated. Tx. Jeff

Follow up. I think I was unclear on the concept. Even with ftouchflo, you can't use touchflo in contacts or email. That is what I was trying to do. touchflo does work in IE, for example.

I realize there are solutions such as iContacts or ssContacts for scrolling in contacts. Not sure there is a corresponding solution for email.

I am using the trial version of Touch Commander, and may try the touch cube.

Anyway, thought I should follow up on my own question. Thanks.

Mine works work email without any problem. I can swipe my finger to scroll the directory of mail in an account as well as scroll a mail while reading it.

I use fun contact so I set it as an exception program. Fun Contact is the best iphone like contact that I know of, although it is not free.

Thanks eaglesteve. You're right. My email works. Now I feel like a triple doofus. I guess I didn't properly understand how ftouchflo works.

Fun Contacts is a nice program. Thanks for the recommendation. Does it only work in portrait mode though?

Well, on to turning my x7500 into an iPhone, GUI-wise only of course.

I've never tried using it in landscape mode before. I think it does not make sense to use it in landscape mode because you want to see as many contact as possible. There is no reason to have wider screen for each of the contact because the width is already enough in portrait mode. I think it would be wise for the software designer to automatically switch to portait mode even if the user is in landscape mode.

Duh ... that makes sense why Fun Contacts is portrait mode onlyl.
