I have contacted a number of other developers, but of course not all of them are interested. We also have our own SMS application that is currently under development. As for an application using AirPush ads, while we do allow our developers the freedom to make their own applications I do not think I could warrant on of our developers using this method of advertising.

@Tombarr: Any updates on your Messaging Metro sms app? I tried using it yesterday and it spammed my girlfriend with 6 duplicate texts. Was also curious about deleting threads our individual texts. Don't mean to press you on it, I just really like the potential of it, and am looking forward to being able to use it full time.

Will you guys be getting into themeing along side your apps?

Sent from my ADR6400L
[Android Apps and Games] tombarr:
@m.ark Metro Messaging is NOT part of the Seven+ Project. Our application has not been released, it is current under development. I will refrain from giving an expected release date, as I know in the past that it is often difficult to live up to them. Instead we will simply surprise you, but keep watching our blog, subscribe to our email newsletter, etc. to get all the latest information.

This brings up a great point thought that I would like to highlight: not everything WP7/ Metro for Android is associated with the Seven+ Project. If its us you can find it on our website, and there should be some form of indication either in the Market description, the application credits, etc. I personally abstain from branding my apps as I feel it detracts from the user experience, but if its not on our website it is likely not us.

@EggoEspada I played with theming on my calculator. Right now we are not doing much with theming, but I would like at some point to offer a theme engine to our developers that would allow UberMusic-esc theming capabilities to our applications. I just don't know when that will be or how it will look, nor can I mandate that every one of our developers use such an engine.

Ah, my mistake. I thought I saw it on your website. Bad memory again.

Anyway, that being said, do you guys plan on offering ad-supported apps, or cheaper ones? Even if less feature filled, I would personally hate spending $3 on a music player that I rarely use. I'm sure the zines app is worth the money, but from someone that might not be your target market, will there be alternatives? And for that matter, who is your target market?
[Android Apps and Games] tombarr:
Well one of the freedoms our developers have is the ability to set their price. As much as you might feel it is expensive, take Google's 30% then the 33%+ owed to taxes, throw in hosting fees, domain registration, time, etc. its really just out of a joy to do this. An ad supported application usually brings in next to nothing and takes more time and effort to get the ads to work in the first place (not to mention it detracts from the overall quality of the application). A free version also requires twice the effort to have to update both applications every time. All of this ads up, meaning the time spent to make a free version detracts from the time put into the overall quality of the full version. Short answer: you can ask Temitayo, the developer of ZPLayer, to decrease the price or make a free version, but from a developer standpoint its usually not worth the trouble.

How could I change the icons to the GB ones? I understand that they're imported from your website, but I can't access schemas.tombarrasso.com. I like the statusbar a lot and bought since I want to support such a great piece of quality work!
[Android Apps and Games] tombarr:
I take it you are looking to decompile and recompile using APKTool? Well unfortunately for you the status bar I made is 100% in-code. My user interface library is 100% code-based to make it easier for developers to use (no resource importing, etc), and it allows the icons to then be in any color or scale up/ down without requiring more pngs for each resolution.

This project is coming along nicely, and I am very excited to see where it leads.

During my typically multiple-month-long research for my next phone, I was heavily considering wp7 - Their beautiful ui, and integration of apps is incredible (the people "hub" is genious); However, I was torn, due to my love for Android's customization and the Google apps integration.

Your project is making me more than ecstatic to stay with Android.

Keep up the great work, as I can't wait to see this come to fruition.

Also, Tom, any relation to the Penguins' former goaltender?
[Android Apps and Games] tombarr:
I am glad to hear that! Unfortunately for Microsoft their user interface seems to be the only temptation. A small application market, limited framework for developers, and extremely controlled environment is very reminiscent of Apple but M$ is a little late to the game (more than 3 years late)!

As for a relation to the goaltender, not that I am aware of but I suppose there are very few with my last name so if you were to trace it back enough sure, why not!

Just wanted to say that i found this launcher while looking for go launcher themes and I am way happier with this launcher than any other i have ever seen. I love the options for customization for it . Is there plans to add support for vertical 2x1 tiles . Also is there any plans to add support to create tiles for any application you want instead of just mail and or widget tiles?

****EDIT**** Ok I am an idiot sorr yfor the wasted post. Although i will leave it there for i deserve to be laughed at for asking such a question before looking thoroughly for the answer first. Found out how to create the vertical 1x2 tiles so Thanks for all the hard work.

OMG YOU ARE THE SENTIO UI dude!!!! Im sorry lol its just that I saw a promo vid about Sentio UI and was BLOWN AWAY! it was amazing. Just wanted to say that if it ever gets released, it would be amazing. Also, I would 100% support this rom, purchases and all, because as much as I enjoy the Android UI, sometimes simplicity is the better method. I have only used Launcher7 free and I love it to death (im always switching UIs) so 2 questions:

1. Would this rom possibly be runable on a Kyocera Echo (i started a site called Hear the Echo, so that I could get all the phones under one roof and see if we can find a root method)

2. Will sentio UI see the light of day?

Thx,

[Android Apps and Games] kanttii:
Oh yeah! Could it be possible to implement the GB icons to the app, could I do it myself somehow? Is the source code open?
[Android Apps and Games] tombarr:
The application is open source, and you can find the source code on GitHub. However, the Android Library Project used for the WP7 UI is not open source and all icons are drawn in-code not with images (otherwise it could not be a library project). This is beneficial because it means I can control the size, shape, and color of all icons without requiring a dozen images (literally, any color of the rainbow works fine). However, for themers this means that you cannot change the icons.

Request feature in Launcher 7

I am not sure this is the right place to put request, but I take my chances.

I am Launcher 7 donate user & simply love this application.. However if developer can include support of 2x2 2 x 3 (& other sizes) tile support for the widget it would be perfect. Now it is only supports 1x1 & 2x1 tiles which sometimes prevent other widgets showing information properly...

Also pop3 email supports needs fot the mail tiles...

thanx in Advance

Have you considered

what MS might think of this?

I downloaded launcher and am very impressed, its smooth and seems fairly faultless, so don't get me wrong I am definitely a fan.

However.

MS will have invested a lot of time effort and money into their OS, and I'm making a hunch that they won't take too kindly at their intellectual property being copied, especially as some of these apps have paid versions.

If it was an open source project, they might look less seriously at it, but as money is being made ... (even if it is a small amount).

The other side of the coin I suppose is that they might see imitation as the sincerest form of flattery, and encourage it to try and persuade people to switch loyalties.

Well you never know ;)

Hey guys I installed Android Wifi Tether and it definitely works great however I seem to be missing features. I can only use WEP and not WPA passwords. When I switch for Auto to Galaxy S under device profile it opens up the stock Mobile AP nonsense and won't let me get rid of it. I have to reboot if I want to clear the Mobile AP. My MacBook Pro is able to connect and use the web however it recognizes it as a "device" and not a "Wifi Network". That may be nit picky but I can't tether with other devices like another mobile product or an Xbox or PS3. Anything? Thanks guys

[TouchPad General] serena_johnston:
Hi,

I have posted this question on Precentral & Google but I'm not having any luck. :( I also just posted this ? on WebOS so hopefully XDA & WebOS will be able to help.

In trying to load/open Preware on the TP, it gives me an error. Below is a screenshot of the error & a screenshot of the Manage Feeds. I didn't try to add any feeds.

I did install Preware before the OTA upgrade. Not sure if that has anything to do with it. I have tried removing Preware & reinstall and gets the same persistent error message.

I haven't tried to customize any feeds yet.

What am I doing wrong? What do I need to do to correct this?

Can any experts tell me what I could have done to prevent this error? My brother has gotten a HP TP also so if I was to do this again, I'll like to know what I have done wrong to prevent it from happening again.

Thanks for everyone's help.

Cheers,

Rena
[TouchPad General] coffmad:
what id say is probably the best option is to remove preware and reinstall, it seems one of the links to the feeds may be incorrect, a reinstall should correct this, if not then you may need to individually turn off each feed one by one and then update feeds untill the problem stops, by doing that you will then find which feed it is that has the problem and hopefully be able to correct/replace it :) hope this helps
[TouchPad General] serena_johnston:
Thank You!

Hiya!

Thank you for your recommendation. Before I tried your route, I went ahead this afternoon (was sick of look at it for the whole weekend wondering what I did wrong) to try one more time on its own & Preware loaded.

Is this a server issue? (Or maybe - not Server but something similar?) Where it's so busy and it just messes up. (I'm not familiar with Preware/WebOS at all - total Noob!). I did not change anything on the FEEDS. All I did was try to load Preware & it actually worked!

Anyway, I got it to load - install all the recommendations and the sucker is fast!

Thank you for your help!

Cheers,

[Q] Preware Issues with Touchpad 32 GB

Hey everyone i would like to start off with a thanks.

I have overclocked 4 16gb touchpads but on my fifth it was a 32GB and im having issues with the feeds in preware . with just the standard feeds im getting an error.

PREWARE

Unable to run command: /usr/bin/Ipkg -o/media/crytofs/apps update 2>&1

then it shows all the feeds with errors.

any help would be appreciated Thanks :confused:
[TouchPad General] geekaren:
I don't what the resolution is, hoping someone who does will respond. I'm getting the same error on my 32GB.
[TouchPad General] seboj:
Do your feed URLs have a / at the end of them? I ran into this problem, and removing the / fixed it.
[TouchPad General] djmegatron:
im just using the default feeds on this so far all 16 gb are working like butter
[TouchPad General] seboj:
Sorry, missed that part about the default preware.

Have you tried the standard error-fixing steps yet?

Reboot Touchpad

Reinstall Preware

It looks to me like one of the feeds may be down, or installed wrong. You could also try disabling them one-by-one until you find the culprit.

Another user reported the same error, and she waited a few hours, and it seemed to fix itself.
[TouchPad General] djmegatron:
all general steps have been taken

reboots ... re install still the same

all feeds work on the 4 16gb
[TouchPad General] djmegatron:
just a side note if anyone doesnt know you can get a few games at http://www.webosbuzz.com just use webos quick install, to install them. hit the plus icon add the downloaded file (.ipk ) and install. [ note need for speed takes a while to install ] ( 7 to 20 minutes depending on the pad )
[TouchPad General] krakerx:
Had a similar issue, did it on first install, and every subsequent reboot... a quick run of WebOS Dr, unit was restored, and everything worked like a dream...
[TouchPad General] c01e:
I have the 32GB and to give you an idea, I had to webos doctor the whole thing to finally get it to accept the preware.is.awesome feed... (yes, I followed instructions to the T, 6 times, Kept failing the updates. Once the doctor was done, I set up the palm acc, loaded preware, Added the feeds, (reboot each time, Do not allow preware to update before reboot) and THEN it worked... (well worth the hassle too!)

thanks everyone my buddy with the 32 gb will be out of town for a few days. i got everything working but the over clock. ill have to give these fixes a try in a few days.;)
[TouchPad General] ponyboy82:
Cool, keep us posted!

So -- does the 32GB require different steps than the 16GB, or is this "non-typical"? I have a 32GB one and was thinking about trying to install Preware, etc.
[TouchPad General] qwertyaas:
Is this an issue with the 32GB in general?
[TouchPad General] phobos512:
I didn't have to do anything special on my 32GB... You guys made sure not to enter a password when you enabled dev mode, right?
[TouchPad General] dabuddha:
I have a 32 and followed the same copy pasted directions that are everywhere and it all worked without a single problem. No webos doc used. Running uberkernel at 1.5 and everything is quick and smooth. I don't think it's a general issue.
[TouchPad General] bilbo6209:
I had the same issue, but I tried again last night, deleted all the offending listings, re-added the preware.is.awsome and it worked.... I had too done it multiple times with the same errors.... no clue what I did diffrently, maybe it was the deleting of the "bad" listings?
[TouchPad General] ponyboy82:
Phew, thanks for the feedback everyone. Hopefully I can get around to doing this soon!

That is not referring to the MR1 build. It says 1.0xxxx. MR1 is 1.13.605.7. That is the pre-release build that was used for downgrading in the original root process. The problem was that build had an old hboot that wouldn't interrupt the flash before the security warning happens. Which was a serious issue when we only had 2 RUUs newer than that to recover with. Anything from the release firmware (1.12.605.6) and up should be perfectly fine.
