Sideways swipe in Messaging, WM6.1??

[guitarguy]

This question was posted in the Elf forum, but didn't get any answers, so I figured I'd post it here, maybe someone can help me out.

With my original Rogers ROM, I was able to swipe sideways in Messaging to go from SMS to Hotmail to Gmail, or to see next/previous message when in a message.

Since I have flashed my phone to WM6.1 (I've tried Blue Elves V5.0, kokotas Clean ROM Black Edition and AB's Clean ROM), none of these seem to support the sideways swipe in Messaging.

Is this something that is not included in WM6.1? Or is there a reg setting that I didn't see to enable this? I am able to do the same thing with the D-Pad left and right, but I'd like to get the swipe back... That's why we have touch screens, isn't it?

Hope someone can help me out. Thanks in advance...

Damn, my apologies! I meant to post this in the General forum! If a mod wants to move this thread, please do... Sorry!!

That is an HTC feature seen on the Vogue/Elf/etc. Not related to WM. It's part of Touchflo/biotouch/whatever it is called. You need to have that built into your ROM. I think FTouchSL will allow this functionality as well.

Thanks for the quick reply!

I've tried FtouchSL, and I find it doesn't work anywhere near as well as the original "biotouch", also, I has many options that I'll never use, so I'd rather stick to the built in biotouch.exe.

On that note, I had a copy of my original Rogers biotouch.exe from when I disabled the cube on my Elfin, I copied that into the \Windows folder with Resco explorer and overwrote the old one, soft reset, still doesn't seem to work.

I think there's a registry setting that I'm missing perhaps, I'm gonna look around for it, but if anyone else has any ideas, I'd be happy to hear them.

Thanks again...

Do you have the original HTC Cube? If the ROM you're using have a disabled cube, you won't have that feature. (some cooks actually disables the cube since it's pretty much useless now)

Damn, yeah, the roms I'm using all have had the cube disabled. Well, thanks for the help, I guess I'll have to try something else...
