First time posting, so let me thank everyone on this forum first. You guys do an amazing job of helping the world hack these devices.

I'm looking for a way to integrate the MS2 and HTC cube built in to my CDMA Touch. I love the TouchFlo functionality and I even like the Cube.

I'm looking for suggestions as to the best approach for combining these two tools. My initial thought was for the MS2 contacts tab to launch the contacts side of the Cube. I could probably teach myself how to properly edit the XMLs to achieve this. However, this would eliminate the 16-contact MS2 tab in favor of a 9-contact HTC page.

I then considered that both the HTC and SPB apps are really 2d. The Cube and MS2 allow for side to side motion, but the up/down gestures aren't consistent. I would like to try and make it so that sweeping up always brings up the cube (it already does that), and sweeping down always launches MS2 (I know about the MS2 gesture, but I want to launch a tab, not the three-tab selection).

My current thinking is to try and recreate the HTC animations for flipping tabs in MS2. I would like to avoid having to uninstall the HTC Cube only to replace it with FTouch or something. Also, this doesn't solve my issue with the downward sweep launching an actual MS2 tab, not the chooser.

Any suggestions?

*bump*

I'm looking for an easy way to make the background from S2U, MS2, and the HTC Cube to match. I'd like the illusion of a single interface, right down to the dialpad, contacts (I know about PCM) and keyboard (also PCM).

I know separate skins for these bad boys exist, but there isn't a single one that applies the same visual style to all these components.

Any artists out there?
