Hi I'm from Bulgaria, and a big HTC fan.
A friend of mine showed me today a brand new HTC TD and Touch Flo 3D is missing. Compared to my own device, has a RSS Hub, but no Touch Flo 3D. There were no time to check the rom version of the device (may be tomorrow). Any ideas why a trader will offer it in that condition, and how to restore the plugin?

Went to Start - Setting - Today (tick TouchFlo3D on)

If you HARD reset the device, it counts down from 3 to 0 after the OS is installed, in order to install additional programs. If you press the reset button in that time, the device will boot without installing these programs. You end up with only WM6.1 installed, and not all the HTC software as TFL3D.

I think I have the same problem with the guy from Bulgaria. I read the post and I want to do a HARD reset. But I don' t know how to do it or I don't understand exactly what it means

Hi there,

I too was wondering why my brand new TouchDiamond 2 didn't have touch Flo 3D installed. Through doing a bit of google research I found the following info in wikipedia:

From the HTC Hero[1][2] and HTC HD2 onwards, TouchFLO 3D has been heavily extended and is now being referred to, along with other usability improvements, as HTC Sense.

HTC Sense is a user interface, based on the TouchFLO 3D user interface,[1] developed by HTC for mobile devices running Android and Windows Mobile. Announced June 24, 2009, the first phone running Android to feature HTC Sense was the HTC Hero,[4][5] and the first Windows Phone to feature HTC Sense (an updated TouchFLO) was the HTC HD2, announced October 6, 2009.[6]

At the World Mobile Congress 2010, HTC showed their new updated HTC Sense UI to debut on the HTC Desire and HTC Legend, with an upgrade available for the Hero and Magic.

The Windows Mobile version of Sense is the successor to TouchFLO 3D.



Perhaps this addresses the issue you've been having? You can tell if you have HTC-Sense or Touch Flo 3D installed by going into settings, then into "all settings", then into "Today", then select the tab for "items". There you'll find a list of check boxes. If one of the check boxes says Touch Flo 3D then you have that, if not it should say HTC Sense. Checking or unchecking that box will enable or disable that functionality for your phone. Hope this helps! Good luck!!

Cheers! :)

I have also been having some problems with my Diamond. My uncle got it in a contest, but could not use it with Verizon. I got it, started it, and the installation process worked up until a point, where it froze. I soft restarted the device and it seemed that all was working, except no Touch FLO. Checked the Today section settings, no TFLO option. However, under Settings>System there was a TouchFLO icon, it seems to just be options for TFLO. The phone has been working fine with my AT&T SIM, even after hard resetting twice, everytime, (even after leaving it plugged in and on all night) the install stayed frozen. I called HTC support, and apparently my phone is an Indonesian model (that explains why the charging adapter what European, and no carrier logo is found on the box or phone) but they could not fix my problem. Is there anyway I can get TouchFLO?

You'll need to go to settings and set up TouchFlo3D on the startup...
