Fantastic work so far mate... would love to see this once you have completed it.

The image reso was low but im assuming that its due to only being a prototype but love where your heading, works great.

 

[Slither2006]

Thanks DJKai,

Don't worry its well underway. I did a basic mockup of this prototype with the buttons for the music/photos/vids....and it worked great...i just have finish what I mentioned above plus also implement the "DownSlide" code so that the app minimize but not close the app....this way it'll prevent you seeing that annoying "Flash Player" title bar when it starts....if efrost is successful in getting the touch.dll to work with Hermes then you could launch it buy sliding your finger up and that would make it closer to the real thing.

Yeah sorry bout the low res....I had to take screenshots of Youtube to get those menu pics....if anyone has any better 240x320 bmps or pngs of them I'd be very interested...even if their just screenshots straight from a HTC Touch phone.

I'm at work right now so won't get a chance to code for another 5 hours.

BTW : Did you try enabling the Fullscreen option in the FlashPlayer ? Because upon opening the swf it will not open fullscreen.......yet.

 

[DJKai]

Yeh I ran it in full screen mode.

Ouch you had to resort to youtube for the pics... i'll see if I can find those images for you... may have of seen some around somewhere.

It sounds as though you've got everything all planned and set.. great work again mate.

Edit: How are these? One still missing LOL

You're a champion DJKai!!! I'll use these pics as soon as I get home!

 

[DJKai]

No worries.

Final piece to the puzzle.

They look great! I'm thinkin I might touch up the text as it doesn't appear to be anti-aliased/smoothed. What do you reckon?

Yeh sounds good.

 

[Slither2006]

Anti-Aliasing Done!

What-do-ya think of these apples??? They were compressed jpeg hence the artifacts a little....the photoshop files I got look great!

I'm intrigued by the HTC Cube Launcher and after testing out ByKa's great Cube Launcher I was inspired to make as close a port to the HTC Cube Launcher as possible.

You'll need FlashLite 2.1 and will have to manually run the swf file in fullscreen mode....ill fix this later.

Here is what I've done so far (12-10-07) :

- Implemented 3 menus (contacts, Main menu, pics/photo/vids)
- Navigate between menus by sliding finger left and right.
- Only implemented a sliding animation not cube rotate animation.

To do very soon :

- Configure all buttons to launch their corresponding programs.
- Create the rotating cube animation (shouldn't be hard just time consuming with photoshop.)
- implement a config file that can read in contacts and assign contact pics.
- implement the DownSlide code very similar to the left/right code so that it minimizes the app.

This is really just a prototype so far and I'm sure many of you hate prototypes but be patient and I will deliver the final port as soon as I can.

Decompile my swf if you wish and reuse the code just give me credit where it is due. I'll upload the .fla file when I'm finished.

Hope you like it and if you have any feedback or suggestions

BTW : I contacted efrost and tested out his alpha release but had no luck getting his touchFlo working on my Hermes.

can u give me the fla file so that i can make a chinese verion?
thanks

 

[Slither2006]

No probs, I will once I have completed more code.

Im flattered you'd like to convert the language....I'll go one further(be extra helpful) and give you the blank AI files or BMP's for the Menu so you can edit them and right the chinese characters on them.

Please be patient once it is finished or at least close to finished I'll publish my FLA straight away. But once again remember me when the credit is due please.

 

[Kenzneth]

Thank for your help

Hi Slither2006,

Your work looks great - it will be very nice to have something close to HTC Cube Launcher.

BTW, I was also thinking that Efrost's FTouchFlo Cab must be very complementory to your effort. I tested it today, and it works very well on my Hermes (Softbank X01HT Herm 200) - it is still running. If you need some help with testing on Hermes just le me know

Good Luck

 

[Slither2006]

Hi Marttin,

Thanks for the props! Yeah I will do my best to get at least the buttons finished as soon as possible. The contacts page will be the most challenging as I want to make a easy way to add and remove contacts with as little stylus action as possible.

You're absolutely right about efrosts TouchFlo efforts working on the Hermes and I agree that it could complement it very well!

I'll PM efrost later down the track once I have something decent to offer and see if we can assign the UpSlide motion to my flash app. I was also thinking the left and right slideMotion from the home screen could be assigned to different pages on the cube and open them accordingly....the latter could be tricky tho.

 

[The_hesham]

Greate effort
I hope it will work on Himalaya, only Byka cube worked

Best Regards
