Hey, everybody.



I have seen on the internet that some of the HTC phones has Touch Flo 3D. Is it possible to get it to the Cruise?

I got a geniue"?" Windows Mobile 6.1 Pro as ROM installed.(Downloaded from HTC's official homeplage)

Hi Crisytaiser! Welcome to the Forum.

It can be done but it doesn't work especially well. This is due to the Cruise not coming with any 3d video drivers - although some smart members of this forum developed some, however they cause problems with the way the Cruise's backlight works.

If you're interested, take a look at this topic: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=465507&highlight=tf3d
It's in the Kaiser forum, but is relevant to the Cruise as well.

I don't know whether the stock HTC ROM supports the 3d drivers (which can be found here: http://www.htcclassaction.org/driverprogress.php#update_20081009_1 ).

You can get it working and it does look pretty sweet, but it isn't reliable enough (IMHO) for everyday use.

You can get TF2D (called Manilla 2d) that works really well on the Cruise. Read about it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=398173
This works pretty much like TF3D but doesn't have much animation.

Before you do anything though, make sure you have a good read of the stuff in the wiki - it ain't that hard to turn your expensive device into a paperweight if you're not sure what you are doing! Good luck.
