srry, but what is a action screen?

[Christoffer91]

I'm using the norwegian 1.93 offical ROM and this wont work for me.

I installed it, did a soft reset, then i started it by pressing "new" in touch flo 3d and this message comes up:

Can't open this file, HTCActionSCreen.
Either its not signed with a clarified certificate, or one of the components does not exist.
Install this again if the problem still exist.

Maybe not the best translate, but I hope you understand.

I have tried installing it 2-3 more times as well without any luck.

What can I do?

Where did you install it ? In the internal storage ?

[Christoffer91]

Yea, should I install it on phone memory?

[skrap3]

Looks good, will try it.

[Christoffer91]

It worked now when I installed it on the phone memory, looks very nice.

[cataphonic]

Works like a charm. Nice app. Thnx

[Fabliv]

[counterfitninja]

I love this, adds a little bit more to the diamond.

Question is there any way to choose which soft key it changes. I would prefer to keep the phone softkey and replace the programs key. would this be possible? some sort of config program may be?

[sonnybravo]

Hi Fabliv, Looks very nice! I use the other action screen which you made also, is it ok to just overwrite it with this one? Or do I need to de-install the other action screen first?

Thanks for your efforts and keep up the good work! :)

[redlancer]

Great Job.
Would it be possible to add a button to activate WIFI, eliminating other one?
Thanks

It's possible, but you have to do it by yourself with a registry editor.

Go to HKLM\Software\HTC\Manila

Modify the following value :

HomeLSKPath = (nothing)
HomeLSKText = (nothing)

Modify the following value :

HomeRSKPath = "\Windows\HTCActionScreen.exe"
HomeLSKText = "New"

After that, the left softkey "Phone" will back and the right softkey will become "New".

:)

I have always preferred to delete a program before installing a new version.

It's possible, of course, but I cannot make a case by case basis.

[thieu93]

Thanks for this tweak

I installed it but I haven't any icon in program files?:confused:
What's my fault?

[Fabliv]

Thanks for this tweak

The default installation path is \Windows.

After a soft reset you'll find a softkey "New" at the bottom left corner of the TF3D home screen.

Of course :)
I thought that there might be a tool of forming every button ;)

Please: Translation to the spanish? thanks, thanks and more thanks :D:D

arogrzHow do you install the program in \windows file directory? I can choose memory device or the 4gb but not the file??? :confused:

[Fabliv]

[thieu93]

Can you explain me all the steps to install your program :rolleyes:

[Tobias1]

German version added ... :)

Thank you, very nice.:)

[Fabliv]

Thank you, very nice.:)

I just corrected a graphical bug in the german version.
You have to download it another time.

Cheers :)

[adamas08]

Great application, very userfriendly!

The only downside is that you lose your phone softkey after installing. So I was thinking, is it perhaps possible to add an 8th button (new call) to the action screen which takes you to the phone tab without using the hardkey, just like the original softkey. In the latest layout (v3 and v4) there is room for an extra button instead of the wide 'new contact' button.

V3 works like a charm. Keep up the good work!

[Sleehond]

Nice job!
When will the NL version be availble ;)!?

:)

If you do decide to put it in, that would be great. I prefer the v3 (Dutch, but english does the trick also ;) ). It's more userfriendly with my clumbsy thumbs than the v2. And I think it looks a little bit more calmer and organized than the v4 yoda edition. But I guess that is probably a more personal preference.

Either way, they are both a great improvement to the TF3D interface!

[thieu93]

I still not understand how did you installed this program?? :o

Okay, I cannot add an extra button. I tryed different things but I didn't find a solution at the moment.
The only things I can do, is to modify each button (logo and prog),
it allows, for example, to customize ActionScreen according to our needs.

The problem with the VGA ActionScreen, is that we must integrate the text in the graphical chart, that is why I have to work a lot on each translation.

Thanks alot (Again)


little typo:
HomeRSKPath = "\Windows\HTCActionScreen.exe"
HomeLSKText = "New"

it has to be:
HomeRSKPath = "\Windows\HTCActionScreen.exe"
HomeRSKText = "New"


btw: you can buy some coffee tmr :p cheers

Hi Fabliv

Great app - thank you!

I've downloaded and installed your Yoda V4 En version on my diamond -
I've uninstalled the old version, and installed the new V4 on the phone memory. The problem is the program still shows the old version/graphics when i run it - i've soft reset several times and tried uninstalling and installing again followed by a soft resets. Do you know what i have done wrong or heard of this before?

Cheers

Update: Got it working, I uninstalled V4, installed V3 - this worked - then uninstalled V3 and installed V4. Now V4 is working fine :)

[Niccolo]

Yes my friend, but you've to wait a little bit. I have a real job too ... ;)

:D:D yeah ;)

Hello,

Uninstall Action Screen.
Search in Windows folder, all .brn files and delete those that begin with AS_0, and reinstall it.

:)

[WhiT3Kr0w]

Great app. Nice work :D

[Rainer Schuster]

Can I Use the Action Screen with the o2 xda diamond?

[xep624]

:D hope that someone like it..

It looks awesome!
Maybe a hole TF3d style like that...? ;)

[Fabliv]

I need your opinion ...

I changed the glossy effect of the version 4.
Is this better ?

i think that your lighting at the top of the icons should be curved like the slider in tf3d. not like a white light, but it could look more clear. i think it would integrate into tf3d more seamlessly. but overall, its great! thanks a lot!

[xkaiser]

Instead of translate text in .brn files (pictures), why don't do that by puting text in registry entries for eatch APP_x ? (HKLN\Software\HTC\Biotouch\ActionScreen\APP_"x"\Name)

When insert name labels in these registry keys, it appears on screen, but in small text and at wrong place. So, I think that will be simple to tweak these key entries (Name; With; xPos; yPos) and add new ones :TextFont; TextHeigth, etc.

So, I ask developers to make a .cab installer for ActionScreen that works with the new registry entries sugested above.

(Fabliv, what do you think?)

Hello,

Text in this app is hardcoded, xpos and ypos is for the position of buttons on the screen ...

[tm3i3]

Hi Fabliv,
Thanks for a great app!
Got a qn, is there any way to link the action screen to other PIM like Pocket Informant instead of the built-in task/calendar/contacts application?
Would be great since most people would prob have other more enhanced PIM installed.

[konrad.schafers]

Is it possible to design the Action screen without the "New" in every item.

It's just that we click "New" on the home screen (TF3D) and then I think it'll be obvious that all the other Items can be without the additional "New".
Like Contact would imply New Contact (since we already pressed "new")

Just an Idea. I think it makes it look much cooler and tidier!!!
(especially in the listed Version. But even with the little boxes I think no "New"s would look better.

[bizurban]

Hey!

I would like to help translate v3 to danish (I like the layout better in v3).

Please PM me :)

Great work, great application ... GREEEAT :)

I have same opinion : it's redundant see "new..", "new.."... when already had click on TF3D to do a "NEW" action.
Another idea, will be put the "new" word at top of background image.

Lovely, thank you.

How can i launch the aAction Screen?
Thanks, Don

Hi, i would like to have this app in Portuguese pleaseeeee!!!!

I can help translate it if you won't have time or not interessed.

Hi,

i have been using your other action screen from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=422136

i really like your new version, but i miss the connection icons, is there anyway to change the bottom two to wifi and bluetooth?

nice work, also i think i prefer v3 to the "yoda edition" but they are both REALLY nice

[sonyuk143]

it worked for me. Thanks!

ditto.... wifi/bluetooth toggle are abt the most common uses for this action screen imo :)

[Dfrost]

Firstly, this thing looks great! It has solved one of my biggest complaints about the fuze. One question, when I click "new email" it automatically opens my personal email. Is there a way for it to open activesync email I use for my company? Yes, I am a complete noob.

Thanks

[su27]

Please consider replacing long "new contact" button with shorter one plus comm manager launcher. It would be ideal.
I like your action screen and I'd like to use it but I don't have spare softkey. I think many people would replace their comm manager softkey with your app.

[juniorAppleseed]

I would be willing to fill some individual orders.

Tell me
What each button is and the order you want the buttons in
What kind of Icons and what color.

Which softkey you want the action button to be connected to, and what you want it to say. "New" "Action" or whatever you want.

I also like creating buttons for the nine button action theme that Fabliv made. I have a variety of them that I have already made.
