Porting TouchWiz from omnia to X1i - XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi everyone!
Is there anyone working on porting TouchWiz from Omnia? What i see they have some nice features with widgets and some graphical goodies.
You can view a video here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YE6kFC8Mgr4 from phonescoop
If the port isent possible can someone redirect me to the mouse feature to work on Xperias optical joystick as seen 5min in the video.
Thanks!

there are some similar UIs out there that function like the one in OMNIAs, just search in 'development and hacking' subforum.
*edit*
this could be the most similar to Omnias

Thank you, ill continue searching.
A full port would be real nice, since i like the graphical effects on omnia, for example the landscape effect is good graphical wise

I would be very excited about a port of TouchWiz from the Omnia, especially since there's a WVGA version of Omnia out there now. It would be a perfect match

There was a huge discussion about the QVGA port of the omnia stuff in the dev & hacking section of the forum, alas it didn't work in vga never mind WVGA

That was news for me. I thougt that Omnia had the same resolution on its screen as Blackstone and Xperia. 1-0 to Xperia on one more point then
I hope porting the mouse pointer is possible though.

I made a thread asking for the exact same thing here weeks ago. I think FEWidgets is the closest we can get at the moment. A proper port would have been great, especially if it was a panel.

This would be an excellent port especially as a panel. I have used this on my g/f's samsung tocco and it is a really good interface to use.

this is the closest thing like omnia touch wizard yeah it is an FEWidgets
lets hope in future there is going to be a FEWidgets pannel that would be so cool
so x1 can do x pannel+touch flo 3d+touch wizard all in one !
unbeatable wm device

Well, somehow FEWidgets doesn't seem to work very well for me. When I press the panel button in my TouchFlo3D panel, sometimes FEWidgets will launch and somehow hang my X1 for a while. Perhaps it'd be better if it can be run as a panel.

I have FEWidgets running fine on my Xperia but as an app. The only thing that bugs me is that its still in its early stages and a bit slow. And its made using flash.
A proper port of the TouchWiz from the Omnia would be perfect though.

Folks
We may be in luck at getting a wvga version of touchwiz. I was just searching around and Samsung have released a new version of the Omnia (SCH-M490) with a WVGA res. Only problem is, its only being released in korea.
So im guessing all we have to try and do is find a copy of the korean rom, port touchwiz and translate the language.
take a look at this link http://www.modaco.com/content/i9x0-omnia-http-omnia-modaco-com/275915/sch-m490-video/#entry936699

Porting TFL3D to X1

Is this possible for you guys to port or extract TFL3D to the X1? TFL3D is actually a program running ontop of windows. and i dont see why it cant be done on X1, since both running the same WM.
is it ported to other devices?
theres your answer
is it ported to other devices?
F..King dumb question
Of course its not converted to other devices, as they dont have the hardware for it to run smootly exept on kaiser that i know, but THE XPERIA is SOMETHING ELSE because it has the same hardware, 3D chip and the same motherboard as the diamond......
please read in the forum......
as i am also looking for touchflo 3D to my upcoming SE X1...
Well I tried to install the QVGA version on non HTC phones and it did not work.....
So mayb I did somethin wrong....
The best bet would be if someone could grab it from a touch HD, as is runs the exact same hardware, including the WVGA screen.
Touch Flo 3D (Manilla) From Touch HD
Good news for all Xperia owners. I have Touch Flo 3D (Manilla) working on the X1. The Manilla software came from the Touch HD and works very fast. Weather works as does the audio manager and photo album. I can't fault it so far. Great to have the best of both worlds. I will package it up into a cab and post a link soon - maybe tomorrow.
Nice. Can't wait to try it out.
Looking through the registry on my X1 there are keys there for TFLO in HKLM/Software/OEM
ive been waiting for this since i got my xperia on release day. Every xperia owner salutes you!

I hope u can share with us all =)
Its a shame the panels seem to be so poorly written. They should be silky-smooth with 3D acceleration.
I certainly am disappointed from the videos I have seen and if I did not know the specs, I would be thinking its no more powerful than my Wizard. Theres still even the lag rotating the screen when you open the keyboard. I expected it to be a lot faster and smoother especially for the price.
touchflow will run on htc hd extremely smooth and fast.
htc has got 480x800, too. so i will beleave, that in near future, touch flow will be downladable in wxga res.
(sorry i meant wvga, lol)

I am still working on this. Need to get the album and audio manager working. Also having trouble with landscape mode - don't know if Blackstone actually has one. Also trying to put in comm manager, phone and volumes controls. It is worth the wait as Manilla is not complete without these components!
Good on you man! I am patient and am willing to wait. Many thanks dude!

how is it for U?

Xperia Panels on Raphael? Possible maybe...

So i was over on modaco and they were able to get the panels to work on HD...yea i know the resolution difference between the Blackstone and Raphael....Maybe one of the chef experts can play with it. I tried to install the installer and it installs but doesnt run.

Ok this isin't exactly what your looking for but interesting none the less. this is FEWigets, its omnia-esque for the tough pro.

The next one is smiler to what you are looking for, its called Task Facade.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=420220
But I have seen nothing that is an exact replica of the X1 YET.
Hope I helped you some!
I'm pretty sure he was looking for a project to port panels to the htc raphael (cdma and gsm variations)
i second that.. hope someone is working on porting it to the raphael... well we kinda see that xperia has got tf3d ported to it's device.. well i hope raphael users could get panels too one day..
thirded on that point
the interface is so beautiful (and facebook app ftw) would be perfect for touch pro
I fourth this motion. I like how on the X1 TF3d was one of the panels It is the porting of the app on a different resolution which poses the biggest challenge i think.
It could be used with tf3d, launched with a pull-down of the task bar, like SPB Mobile Shell does.
considering the relase of the files thanks to modacco I don't see why it can't be ported now

Omnia screen rotation on diamond

hi all can anyone make a cab file for the diamond so we can have the same type of screen rotation as the omnia? the diamonds is boring and the omnias one is way cooler. ive had the omnia and didn`t like it as the touch screen wasn`t all that but some of the features were pretty good. as soon as i got mine i got rid of those stupid widgets on the main screen as they make it look like a orange branded phone lol
cheers for any help
Could you elaborate on how rotation works on the Omnia?
yeah in the settings you can change the way the screen rotates when you tilt the omnia and the style of the rotation hope that helps as i haven`t had a omnia for about 5 months now so not sure where in the settings this function is ......
i remember seeing it having some sort of animation when it rotates
yeah thats it... i think it would look the nuts on the diamond but not sure how it could be done unless it can be intergrated into gyrator?? i`m surprised no one has mentioned about this before and i did do a search but came up with zilch
i thought there might have been some interest in this tweak
i am interested. hope others are too. asked about this long time ago in another thread.
yeah i saw that on my friends omnia it looks nice
i think it really has to be ported considering the different screen size..
probably animation is the same as on iphone
yeah looking forward to it!
no news yet?
I'm waiting for this too....it'll be cool to have that Omnia's feature on Diamond

Nice to see the 3 favorite shortcuts come back in the main menu! Is this build allready available for the cooks?
I havent heard any chatter about anyone getting it yet. The products its due on are superstar and leo, which arent out until way after christmas, so Im amazed this is even booted on a touch hd. If it leaks onto the touch hd sections, the nearest hardware is our xperia so we'd hopefully be next in line.
strange thing is, the icons along the top, where signal strenght/battery etc are look very similar to those used as stock by nrg on his energyroms.
plus he posted 2 weeks back some pics asking what people thought of a rom looking like this.
maybe he has it ready for his roms or is working on it, but it's only speculation

I don't like the 3 favorite shortcuts on the home screen. I hope that the final versions has that feature configurable so that the people who want it can have it and the ones that don't can remove it from the home screen.
EDIT: I wish that HTC replaces the Manila UI with the HTC Sense UI; I LOVE that UI.

HTC will release HTC Sense for Windows Mobile, but now they focus it for HTC Hero (Android)
But HTC said they will port it to Windows Mobile
But they didn't say when

[ArkSwitch] HTC Notification-LIKE Theme [UPDATE 07/16/10 BUGFIX]

Here's my theme for ArkSwitch. I wanted it to look much like HTC's notification enhancement since I use them side-by-side.
Click image to view full resolution
Instructions:
1. Make sure you have ArkSwitch v1.14 installed.
2. [Update 07/02/2010: QVGA tested and working, I will assume it works in VGA and WQVGA as well]Make sure your resolution is WVGA; I am not supporting other resolutions. But others may feel free to port it.
3. Download attached ZIP file.
4. Quit ArkSwitch if it is running.
5. Extract ZIP contents to ArkSwitch "Theme" folder.
6. Start up ArkSwitch. Done!
Updates:
07/17/10 - crash bug fixed on HD2 (final?)
*Special thanks to toadlife for the original X-button PNG's*
wow!! great one!!! will you make it for qvga resolution???
As I said in my post I will not support other resolutions because I only have WVGA devices now. But others are free to port it.
Absolutely Great Mate!!! That was exactly what i was looking for. ArkSwitch optically never really fitted into Sense but now... Im happy
EDIT: Hmm damn ArkSwitch constantly Crashes when using your theme. Im running it with RTTs ROM on HD2 (Win 6.5.3 Manila 2013) Any suggestions...?
Error see pics
After crash, the Device runs extremely slow and needs to be Softreseted.
fantastic theme, thanks!
OMFG, this is starting to irritating me xD Next nice theme that fits me, I look at the author and ONCE AGAIN it's ShowTime7 X_X
Congratulations, good work
Any help please...?
Very nice! I'll cook these in my ROMs from now on!
ill make the QVGA version shall upload in a few
showtime7, it turns out your skin does work well on QVGA too. This is confirmed and working. here are the screens
thanks for this mate

I am aware of this... But I didn't think it was related to my theme. I had to remove ArkSwitch due to the crashing... If you are certain that it's only after my theme is applied that it crashes, then I will look into my XML and see if I made an error.
NRGZ, please don't cook this yet until we figure this out! At least not in 6.5 HD2 roms.
Unfortunately I am not a developer so if it's not related to my theme it's not something I can fix. I didn't do much but edit the colors and images in the XML file.

Thanks for testing, I will update my post.
Anybody else experiencing the crash? From the ArkSwitch changelog the last 2 updates to the app were crash fixes so this leads me to believe it's not my theme causing it.
Seems to work fine with mine.
Hey Showtime, I sent you a pm with a link. Hope you like it.
Finally a simple solid theme for arkswitch. I've been using it on:
Energy.RHODCDMA.23569.Sense2.5.Cookie.Jun.22
... since you released it with no crashes or any issues other than minor scrolling lag in the process list - but that happens with the other sub par arkswitch themes I've used in the past. I'm chalking that up to the display API used in the app.
Kudos for working on this. Bonus if NRZ bakes it in future ROMs.

I am thinking of changing everything to GIF and maybe this will boost performance... Will need to change the one with transparency though since only PNG can offer transparency. Hopefully the app accepts GIF format images.
great, a whole lot better now (works fine with the Energy ROM's)
Great minds think alike!
Nice! Wish I'd seen that before hand could have saved myself some time lol.
cool theme, matches perfectly to my current ROM and other themes.
Thanx a lot.
