[mushu]

Disregard my last post. I did a hard reset.

[saxmanrp]

when I selct a jpg, ico bmp, or gif in the icon section all it shows is the generic icon for those file types.

anyone know how to convert jpg files into ink files to use as icons in ultimate launch..

Is there a way I can get it to work where the clock is like in your video? rather than under it..... running the HTC touch, besides that I think its an awesome application

Hey guys

I've been using this program for a while now but ever since i've updated to the newest rom i've been having some errors. but since this is the UL thread ill stick to the UL problem. Like I said it was working fine before but now the screen just disappears. I check the today options in the start/settings/today tab and it is still clicked on. it is the only thing that i have on acutally. Has anyone else been having this kind of problem?

Thanks.

[tannerj]

I watched all 3 video's and Dash's video he has a program at the bottom of his mogul that scroll's through the unit's status (ie memory, space). I have read most of this forum and can not find what the name of the program is. Could help me with this...

Sorry about that, but I did not know the name of the program. This ultimate launch program is pretty awesome. So far I have had no problems at all with the program.

thanks again and sorry for going off subject.

[Damager]

thanks to all at Wckediden for sharing this program,

follow the video instructions you cant go wrong.. it rocks

cheers!

Page 13 hehe After page 15 I won't admit I can't get it working :)
2 questions...

I can't get "Date" to come down from the top of the list in order to move UL up to the top. I took UL from 1/2 way down up to the #2 position but "Date" is still above. Will this be why I am reading through page 13? :)

Also, just so I get the wording right from your 20 explanations...
untick HTC Home
Then before actually ticking UL I set up all the icons then go back and tick UL?

I don't mean to sound like I am looking for the most articulate wording but I really have never been so stupid on an install before :)

I searched this whole thread to try and find an alternative calendar plugin or third party calendar application that i can put in ultimate launcher .... no luck ... can anyone suggest some calendar programs that work within ultimate launcher... i only tried today agenda and wasnt to happy with that ...

also ultimate search is another application that does not work within ultimate launcher ... anyone know of an alternative application for that , which works in ultimate launcher ?

SBSH Pocket Breeze is a nice setup, it gives a varity of options that you can tab inside of the calendar as well and works good in UL. The only bug is I see is the scrolling is often buggy if the wcked is set to a large height setting. Other than that - perfect.
Oh, you can also customize the calendar with various different themes as well.

Pocket Breeze can be found Here.

sorry, no info on the second question. ;)

Well I know one reason, when people find out about this stuff they think its cool and decide to give it a try and get into all this stuff. It takes a real smart phone junkie to keep updating there phones with the newist software. When I first got into it I made my phone how I wanted it and I thought it couldint get any better bc I had my phone the way I wanted it. I never touched another program for my phone for couple of months (4-5 give or take), this was the time I was on XDA all day long. If this flashing to a new ROM thing goes through smothly for me I will consider taking this thing to a new step, making themes, helping out more ect..

Hope to hear form you tomorrow but it has to be past 8-9pm Eastern Standard Time, you mind throwing me you'r number (private pm) just inscase something comes up, Havea good night, peace.

I found a cool little trick for ultimate launch. Do you want to be able to make shortcuts to system settings, such as bluetooth? here is how you do it!

On your PC create a new text file containing the single line:

21#ctlpnl cplmain.cpl,23

save the file as bluetooth.lnk (make sure it has not been saved as bluetooth.lnk.txt)

Then copy this file into into your pda \windows\start menu\programs (or wherever you want to put it)

You then have to get a bluetooth icon, google it, then re-adjust the image to 32/32 pixels, and save it as an ico file, then put it into Ultimate Launch, and voila!

Remove Program=10
Menus=11
Buttons=12
Today=13
Beam=15
Clock=16
Network Adapter=17
Regional Settings=18
Connections=19
Bluetooth=23

These are the other ones that I have found, credit goes to rabdo from
4winmobile. To use something else replace the 23 at the end of the 21#ctlpnl cplmain.cpl,23 with whatever you want to use, IE today would be 21#ctlpnl cplmain.cpl,13 and name it as Today.Ink then find an appropriate icon for it, and then you got a shortcut for the today screen.

I researched this one because I am lazy, and I wanted to be able to get to my bluetooth settings so I can easly connect my ht820s (motorola stereo headsets) for when I go running in the morning. If you need the icon files, i can post the one for bluetooth.

[iTouch24]

great find but i cannot get it to work.. i am trying to make one for remove programs ... when i click on icon in UL i get an error

i attached the file if u could tell me what i did wrong

[Psycho]

sorry, i made the same mistake myself, the file is a .LNK for link, but not sure if caps work, so .lnk not ink, i renamed it on my computer, shipped it to my device and it worked. You will also have to find a suitable icon, you can use one of the icons that ul comes with, but you will have to select the tab that you want it under, then click new, and select XP-Icon (32 bit) then you choose the file for the remove programs.lnk and then go to the XP-Icon tab and click browse, and navigate to program files/ultimatelaunch/icons and choose an icon that you think represents the remove programs shortcut the best. Hopefully this helped you, just post again if it didn't, again i appologize cause that really does look like i put .ink

[WebbD30]

ok i just installed this and im trying to get it right but i dont have a htc home and i have a messegee clock and ul tab what do i do

customize it to your liking... take a look at the videos in the first post for more details to walk you through it.... also all has been discussed in this thread on top of the videos.

Just discovered this (on another board, hope it is ok to share) but I tried it for one and it worked...
To install and use:
Just drop the folder in My Documents, and then in UL - add a lnk/icon to which ever app you want.

You're probably referring to HTC home, which is customized with HTC Home Customizer (HHC). But there are tons of ways to set up your Today screen with different apps that can be used in or with Ultimate Launcher. Do some more reading and video watching, and listen for key words and program names that you can search for here using the green search button above (I imagine that's how you found this thread). Anyway, keep reading bro and you'll find lots of stuff.

ok mine is comeing around but one thing is there a way to stop the cube from going off like when i tap the bar it gose off is there a way to stop that

I think so. In UL Settings, go to the display tab, and put "transparency minimized" to 0%.

I think that should do it. Hit rep if it works plz....

“ Originally Posted by WebbD30 ”

set header height to 0 on the headers tab....

[kingwood]

ok i have my phone set up right well maybe 80% right but my cube works at the bottom not at the top like you guys can someone help my clock does not move like i see what have i done wrong

[iTouch24]

your clock is not moving when u switch tabs ...?

if that is the case then it is not setup in UL ...

go to setting / personal / today on phone and items ...

uncheck HTC .. if that is the clock u are referring to .. add that today plugin in UL

[WebbD30]

yo ive searched the whole site for an official UL noob forum and did not find one and i watched all the vidsa but i cant figure out how to add items into the tabs can sum 1 explain it to me

[aznajoe]

question might have been answered aready but is there a way to change the htc home plugin in ultimate launch for example is there a way to get the cartoon look at stuff like that because when I change it in htc home settings it always just goes back to default. thanks. hope I'm posting in the right area.

In start/settings/today/items, unchech UL, then make your changes in hhc. Then go bacl and re check UL, uncheck htc home. Golden.....

There is no official UL noob guide. There is however, this huge thread with all of your answers. Read a little more. If you get there on your own, you'll be better off for it.
