[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Dr J:
as far as i understand, the XDA Enlarged Start Menu is just taken from one of the other HTC devices and is not "payware" or anything like that.

if anyone was developing an enlarged Start Menu, i'd love to see a kinda fullscreen version, this would make it much easier to navigate. kinda in the style of iContact or the latest volume control taken from Diamond. i don't really se why the start menu needs to be only a percentage of the screen size anyway, just seems like bad design, they've made it look like the Start Menu on a Windows Desktop PC so that we all know it's Windows, but have not actually thought about the interface being user friendly for a handheld device. for drunk people with fat fingers. like me.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] m.schmidler:
yes man, I absolutely agree !!! It´s funny, I never really thought about start menu, but now when I read your suggestion it just seems really crazy how much possibilities for improvement there are.

I thought about a completely customizable start menu, fullscreen.

Maybe with a kind of plugin system, volume / vib toggle, backlight strength slider, power off+soft-reset buttons....*sigh* THAT would be cool !

What about Touch Launcher http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=433862
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] m.schmidler:
It´s a normal app, but I was talking about a REAL replacement. It should hide when I tap "Start" again, and, as I said, it should be really customizable.

To all devs out there: Is anyone interested in coding such an app ? I think this is desperatly needed to make WM a bit more usable, although there are already tons of good software out there.

Martin
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Mikulec:
Did u try Quickmenu 2.7?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Dr J:
hmmm, main thing i want is fullscreen. that one seems nice feature-wise, but it's not what i'm after.

devs, do any of you know how they changed the size of the Start Menu from the old style to the new enlarged one?

if we know how to do this then maybe we can hack the existing app to at least lengthen right across the width of the screen... or if it was hacked with a config we could pick how many items we wanted...

this could be a great project for the coders! :D
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] mr_deimos:
Well, quickmenu is _almost_ perfect. If it only was more finger-friendly. Being able to scroll trough menus like in icontact and all so many other apps would be great for it, but at least having twice as big menu entries would be enough in most cases. It has all the features needed, it just mimicks the original start menu a bit too much ;)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] dancer_69:
Touch menu from touch commander suite is exactly what you want,and it has and application menu enlarged. Unfortunaly its not freeware.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Andreal:
Here is little something about system fonts:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms901091.aspx

By changing some registry values you can change size of start menu (including font size etc.) and popup menu as well.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] nelshh:
Ohh thankyou! But, using PHM Regedit I've tried changing the Ht-value for BarFnt, which didn't do anything. Perhaps you have some pointers to what I should try? :)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Andreal:
BarFnt values are for menu bars (for example: bottom bar in total commander).

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\GWE\Menu\PopFnt

is for popup menu (screen 1 shows Ht value of 1200)

Truly, I don't know how to change start menu font size via registry.

If you want to have full screen menu try mort buttons
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Dr J:
can you launch mort buttons by tapping Start on the screen?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] m.schmidler:
maybe by editing the registry ?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] iggy:
If anyone can duplicate the Touch Commander one it would be perfect. I have touchcommander but do not use it anymore, unfortunately you have to install the whole program to be able to use the Large menu option.

The great thing about it is it enlarges menus in all programs.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] laser21:
Sorry for bringing up an older thread, but I think this is still unsolved!

I also would like to have a fullscreen start menu. I tried quickmenu 2.8,but it just isnt what Im looking for. For me it would be fine if clicking on the start menu would bring up a dialog like when you click startmenu -- programs.

Hope that someone has an idea!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] twolf:
QUICKMENU 2.8 for me too... ^_^

I'd only add that scroll movement and ability to customize the start icon (it already does this, but only with one icon).
[Huawei P50 Pro] drzewoid:
Hey all,

I didn't find any information about this, so i ask - does Huawei P50 PRO have 50 MPIX AI MODE? It's special full resolution mode to take high quality photos in P40 PRO, but i don't know is this available in P50? Can You check this? It's something eles than normal 50 MPIX mode, photo is processing few seconds, but results are impressive.
[Huawei P50 Pro] lawtq:
Yes that camera made is there on the P50 pro. I have it on mine
[Huawei P50 Pro] drzewoid:
Thanks for info, but i want precise question - is this mode called 50 MPIX AI or 50 MPIX or available both? Because it can be "normal" high resolution image and how long does it procesing single photo? Can You send some photo in this mode?
[Huawei P50 Pro] qbcgraphics:
both are available: 50 MPIX AI and 50 MPIX.

The photo takes about 3 seconds and the processing almost 10.

The examples are 50 MPIX AI the weather is bad therefore the images are also not spectacular

[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] hitch:
I was in a hurry to make a connection and left it in the seat pocket on the plane. Someone in Chicago or another connection has a great device. I bought the redfly to go with my ATT Titan II and just connected it this morning. The big disappointment is that video is terrible. Other than that most apps work great. Let me know if you want me to test something.

It is unlikely that the airline will find it, so I'll have a battery and original box for sale in about 10 days.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] rorydaredkign:
thats really sad
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] stanip:
Re Redfly, how is the performance in mobile office? Read some reviews mentioning about pdf files opening extremely slow... your experience so far?

Using BT, how is battery life? Just curious to know the real user experience.

Thanks.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] hitch:
Redfly

All of the mobile office apps work great, it is not hard to see why they are targeting the business market. The only thing that I'd love to see would be better video play, but I did not expect that. The keyboard is fine for touch typing and I've had no trouble getting used to it. The screen is really good in the truck and I'm enjoying it for gps, google maps, and expensable. The view of contacts and calendar when in the truck is so much better than the phone itself. It is priced ok and worth it at $199 but that is still a stretch since it cannot replace my phone screen or media player for video on flights. So my dilemma is still multiple devices if I want a larger screen. The screen for Mobile Office is better than the Advantage, but for a do it all device I'd like to have it back.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] btrcp2000:
I just received my scratch and dent x7501 from an ebay transaction, and it only came with the charger, so I might be interested in whatever you have, especially proprietary cables. I can't say I necessarily have to have them, but it might be helpful in case i decide to sell.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] hitch:
I didn't think I'd miss it like I do. So I'm going to watch the "for sales" and ebay for a couple of weeks to see if I can find a replacement. If not, I'll contact you 1st.
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] Pawel062:

[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] badersk:
As for the power plug you might want to see if you are getting it plugged all the way in. Many have noted, as I have with mine, they have a lot of tension on the socket so it doesn't come unplugged and you think you have it plugged in when you don't.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] AGxM:
Been a while since I tinkered and so with some trepidation I thought I'd try the switching between different launchers using Tasker.

After some swearing I managed to get it working using the guide HERE

Got Niagra on the front and Nova on the large screen!
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] jfrancis999:
Thanks, man! How well does it work for you?
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] AGxM:
Pretty good, now struggling to use KGWT for my next trick but may give up on that lol
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] Ry4n83:
Thanks for the tip. I got it going too. Now I remember why I hated it.🤣 I had some fun with it for a bit though. Definitely not efficient but without hex or root. It was a nostalgic trip back to 2010😬
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] Ryan1469:
Can't seem to get it to work. Just a question, once i set it up i get [ No active profiles (3 of 3 enable) ] on the notification panel for the tasker. Is it supposed to be like this or the profile should be active for it to work?
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] jemfalor:
use state any sensors to help detect the hinge angle
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] Ryan1469:
Sorry, I didn't get it. Can you please elaborate.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] jemfalor:
state > sensors > any sensor > hinge angle
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] Gregbmil1:
That's awesome. I bought Tasker like a year ago. Everytime I download it I open it, get frustrated, then uninstall it, lol.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] Ry4n83:
I think I love niagra though. It's so minimal on that big screen i think it would be better to just create a one page widget than run two launchers. That side animation was on one preset years ago. I sent my phone to safe mode play with stuff using adb today 🤣 still have no idea what I did that prompted it.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] Ryan1469:
@jemfalor Sorry I am a noob to the tasker. Where do I select hinge angel in the any sense?View attachment 5427995
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] jemfalor:
under type, press magnifying glass
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] Ryan1469:
@jemfalor thanks for the help mate but it is not working for me. I will pass into it until someone post a detailed video as I have done everything right which Is mentioned in the guide but still no luck.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] jemfalor:
it is working. just learn to figure things out. change interval type to sample,
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] pieces of cake:
Works, but it's glitchy. Sometimes the stock home screen returns until I press the home key. When the device is unfolded and the main screen is visible, pressing the home button causes Nova Launcher to reload, which is pretty annoying. Worst of all, after configuring this, the keyboard keeps reverting back to the Samsung keyboard instead of Gboard, and sometimes the keyboard refuses to pop up at all. Time to undo this damage.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] mhtruth:
does "tasker" work faster than the "Bixby Routines" method? im using Microsoft launcher (small) Nova 7 (larger)
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] AGxM:
Pretty instantaneous I find, and if the wrong launcher shows, (although this is rare) a swipe up reverts the screen to the correct one.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] AGxM:
View attachment 5431169View attachment 5431171
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] dmccabe:
The Bixby Routines version works well for me.

Now.... If there was only a way to have two instances of Nova Launcher running on the device at the same time, I could have version one layout on the cover screen and version two layout on the inner screen.

Anyone any ideas?
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] iTryH:
Maybe you can help sorry for bothering you. Everything seems to be setup except when folded or unfolded I have to hit the home button manually for the launcher to change. Do you happen to know how I can fix this?.
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] AGxM:
Sorry, no. Sometimes the switch doesn't happen automatically for me either and I just swipe to swap the screen but no idea why you have to do it all the time
[Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3] iTryH:
Okay, no problem my friend. I appreciate you answering probably something you've said 100 times already. Sorry bout that.
[LineageOS News & Discussion] sn00x:
GrapheneOS has this nice new feature called Sandboxed Play services which basically allows to run google play services as unprivileged apps. To make this possible, they built a compatibility layer.

For testing purposes I already merged necessary commits and created patches for LOS. As I'm not going to publicly release any builds, I've already posted a guide so that any rom builder can easily integrate the gms compatibility layer in their rom (not necessarily lineageos).

But, I'd love to see this in LineageOS officially. In a comment on reddit it sounds like the main problem is that the feature violates the Android Compatible Device Document. However, after looking at the source code of the compatibility layer, it seems like the layer could easily be implemented without violating anything. In fact, the gmscompat layer was implemented as a compatibility change to reuse the existing compatibility change infrastructure. It is a special implementation though, and automatically get's activated for GMS apps only (see these two patches).

My thinking is, if the compat change isn't activated on its own for GMS apps, but additionally relies on a checkbox (disabled by default) in the system menu, that wouldn't violate anything, because the default behaviour isn't tampered with at all. And as soon as the user enables the compatibility layer with the help of the aforementioned system menu setting, Google play services can be run in a sandbox.

What do you think?
[LineageOS News & Discussion] Sewdohe:
I had inquired with the graphene devs about 2 or 3 weeks ago and they couldn't even tell me all of the repos I had to cherry pick the 100+ commits from....thanks for this. I've been putting off integrating this into my LOS ROM since I started developing it almost a month ago

It's a Lineage 19.1 rom
[LineageOS News & Discussion] PiXinCreate:
Glad to know about that!

I'm new to all these ROM development stuffs. I'd be helpful if you publish your work on GitHub with a build documentation..:) (optional, you can decline my request).

As the dev already has confirmed that former (GMS_Sandbox) is ROM independent, I personally feel like making a Magisk Module for that, which will be systemless and optimal.
[LineageOS News & Discussion] Sewdohe:
Yeah, I surely will upload my sources. It's just so monotonous creating each repo one by one and adding remotes lol I've been putting it off.

Getting it working with that gist was very easy though, most every commit auto-merged.

But yeah, I'll upload those sources and post back here when they are up.

( I am new as well btw, I just got started about a month ago)

EDIT: SOURCES
[LineageOS News & Discussion] solarkraft:
From what I read the Lineage OS developers don't seem very cooperative, at least on this front (see LineageOS for microG).

A Magisk module would be amazing. It would also make the work I just did to compile Lineage obsolete :p

Do you already have a technical approach for such a module? Would you just replace the files that have been changed? How concrete are your plans to make it?

[HTC Excalibur] Bupahs:
yeah upgrade to the 19.99 plan and stop trying to abuse the system :mad:

There are ways to do it but those ways are slowly drying up as T-Mo secures their ports for 3G

Time to pony up some dough :D

Also you will need to app unlock your Dash (search for it, its in the forums) so that the 'my location' feature works.

Is there a date set to bury the plan?

Your password is the last four of your Social Security Number

Oh and official word from T-Mobile (if you can trust their reps information half the time) is 2009 to 2010 for T-Zones / T-MoWeb to be "discontinued". If you noticed you cant even access your T-Mobile album anymore from your handset, you must use a full internet access (Smartphone / Blackberry) or computer to access your Album (yeah I am probably one of the few that ever actually used the My Album feature from T-Mobile) Wap is going the way of the Dinosaur, I'm told the old wap will be replaced with a streamlined xhtml service (which actually is still wap.. duh T-Mobile) for their ringtone / wallpaper purchasing (like anyone still buys these things LOL)

Hi. I'm currently using redmi note 10, and I was wondering if there is a custom rom like iOS for my Android phone? If not then why??

I mean I have installed "Pixel Experience" on my phone but why there isn't an "iOS Experience". I know there are many folks who'd love something like that.

I've tried searching for it and found none, there are some iOS launchers on play Store but they're filled with bugs and ads.

Please reply, Thanks.
[Redmi Note 10] dsashwin:
Well... Why would we need iOS Experience on Android? Maybe get an iPhone? The way the 2 are made is very... VERY different fundamentally.

Pixel is Android, Pixel Experience is Android. IOS is not open-source like Android. and moreover you can not flash iOS to Android phones, like Redmi Note 10.

Making a ROM like iOS but based on Android is going to be a hard task and a very buggy one. Your best bet is to use launchers and themes which kinda look bad in my opinion.

PS: You can flash MIUI, if you know what i mean...

iOS Operating System is not open source, not like Android. It can be done, but it's hard, like .. you have to do a lot of redesigning.

That's something a large team can do. OEM company maybe. I don't think normal developers have enough passion to do that.

it's not visible at all on a pitch black background, but only on light colors like white, gray...etc check the attached photos below !

anyone have or had same issue on their Xperia 1? and if anyone knows what caused it to appear and if its gonna be permanent or if it will disappear by the time?

Please let me know in the comments!
