  1. @All: Because 1.0 Version has many error and take much memory. It takes long time to fix, so I decide to stop developing version 1 now.
    I'm building ver 2.0 with optomized code and quite new functions.
    I'm sure you will like it.
    You can see V2 preview here

    Regard!

    Please read all first post! There's some advice that solve most of issues

    Preview video: Youtube video

    I have found the error on weather update!
    Fix: Download accuweather.cs.txt, delete .txt extension and overwrite at Home2\Common\

    1.1.0.1
    -Fix almost errors (code, graphis)
    -Add 4 (and more with mod :) discover!) shortcuts on Home Applet:

      +Hold applet space to select shortcut
      +Hold shortcut to remove

    -Main update is about HomeScreen:
      +Notification
      +Top bar
      +custom function for 4 navigation buttons (edit in custom.cs)
      +Hold Right "+" Button to access setting screen

    and...what i miss:-?
    Restart after install

    1.0.0.1 for test.

    To complete this work, I have to thank to:

  2. 1)My wife :) She has supported me a lot, and I know she was sad because I spent much time to make this projects. I love her very much!
  3. 2)Of course, Point UI team for very very cool product PointUI 2
  4. 3)Cardefbel for HomeScreen custom bar!
  5. 4)zenkinz for Calendar applet
  6. 5)Orlando [list]for Communication applet, base on his SystemInternal2

  7. And many people who have great code…Please tell me If I miss anyone!

    How to play:
    -Install PointSenseSuite…cab for PointSense Applet (it will take a long time, because of compressed cabinet and many files to extract)

    -Install PointSense.HomeScreen… for custom bottom bar. I don’t use title bar because I like my default taskbar :). You can use cardefbel’s work to have full custom top and bottom bar. (Require install PointSenseSuite before and restart PointUI)

    Important: Backup your Home2\Common folder to get back default bottom bar. And do it with your own risk!
    I’m not sure If the custom bar work on Lite version! You can test it and feedback to me :).

    - Select PointSense Theme (for correct color, include hero wallpaper in theme folder), and the PointSense Applets.

    Notes:
    Recommend to install in clean PointUI

    With WVGA & WQVGA device:
    -Applets fit the screen so no need to mod any thing.
    -Maybe I need resize graphics a bit for better performance!

    With VGA & QVGA
    -Recommend to install PointSense.HomeScreen to have more space for applets.
    -If you don’t want to install PointSense.HomeScreen, you can remove the title bar by deleting HomeScreen.Title.jif in Home2\Theme\Default to hide the title bar.

    Install and discover their functions yoursefl!

    P/S: Thanks for all your support.

    Do you like Nitrogen Player? If yes, try PointSense Nitrogen skin.Fun!

    1)Any install problem. You can try:
    Thank to dickenz:
    - Remove PointUI from Start > Settings > System > Remove Programs
    - Delete \Program Files\Home2\ if there is anything still there.
    - Download and install PointUI 2.1.0.6 from http://www.pointui.com/products/home-2/
    - Enable PointUI from Start > Settings > Today > Items > Tick PointUI Home2
    - Close the Settings window.
    - Disable PointUI from Start > Settings > Today > Items > Untick PointUI Home2
    - Download and install PointSenseSuite (QVGA or VGA) from the first post.
    - Download and install PointSense.Homescreen (QVGA or VGA) from the first post.
    - Re-enable PointUI from Start > Settings > Today > Items > Tick PointUI Home2
    - Once PointUI has started go to Menu > Customize > Change theme - Apply PointSense theme.
    - Go to applets window, remove all current applets you don't want and add PointSense applets.

    2)afreeb's advice would be to remove all other applets ... then install pointsense suite apps... then once those are running then add other applets... this was the only way it would work for me...

    3)If you feel PointSenseCalendar too slow:
    -Unselect PointSenseCalendar, PointSenseCommunication
    -Reselect PointSenseCommunication, PointSenseCalendar in exact order
    It work well for me!
    4)Do you like a operator logo on topbar. Make a jif image with your operator name, and put it in Home2\PointSense\Theme\operator. Fun :)

    Nice suite blueoceean! Kudos! I for one am going to be using your suite in the near future when it has been completed :-) Reaaaaaaaally nice!

    2 quick questions though.
    1.) Clock OnClick, can this be modifyable to let's say your alarm app? (G-Alarm for instance?)
    2.) Can the flipping animation be turned off? As I like the view of the clock, but hate the fact that everytime I pull my device out of standby it flips the clock.

    I modified the flipclock source to do just this in my case, I'm just wondering if you can also create this :-)

    Ps. Nice background in image 2 :-P

    This would look awesome on my black Xperia :-) Thanks Blue...
    Would you release in parts or only as a completed suite?
    Are you inspired by the ThrottleApps?

    I intend to release a nearly completed suite(60% work) because I am finishing some new common classes and common suite dir.

    blueocean I simply can't wait. If you manage to complete this suite you've done this community a huge favour (and something I wanted to do with Revolution UI but alas it seems my developer has gone AWOL) by finally delivering a cohesive and complete UI that has everything that is needed for day to day use. And on top of that, mimicking the Sense UI will give it the same feeling which will carry across all applets. Something that has been lacking when you install PointUI then are presented with your applet choices. We'd wind up installing this applet from developer A, that applet from developer B and your phone would never feel complete.

    Bring it on :) - Complete PointUI for us!
