Hello. I couldn't find anything after searching, so I'm making a new post.

This is what my Calendar currently looks like this

each of those calendar days are for exams, meetings, or other things and it gets confusing which is when just by looking at it.

I was wondering there is some kind of an addon that will display icons for each category that I use (like exams, appointments, meetings) So that I don't have to scroll over to each box and click to view what that day has.

Also, what are the differences amongst those green triangles and squares? I can't differentiate them.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] fusi:
top left triangle == morning app

bottom right == afternoon app

filled square == morning and afternoon apps

hollow sqaure == all day event

IIRC

i doubt what you are requesting is possible - i would be suprised if those 'icons' are actually images and not just primitives rendered directly by the calendar app. you prolly need to look for an alternate calendar app tbh

Hey i have a friend who is looking to buy a sprint touch pro. does anyone know what reliable websites i could get one from, apart from ebay(didn't work out the first time:()

I have spent the better part of 3 days trying to find a way to change the color of the FONT on the start menu in TF3D...

I cannot find it anywhere...

Here is an example...

Without TF3D I can read my menu ok.

With TF3D its VERY HARD.

What manila files control the font color on the start menu???

Or better yet, does anyone have a list of what manilia files (the mode9 ones) do what?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] Warjcowski:
Do you have a theme installed?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] FarBeyond:
yes. i have the star wars dark side theme installed.

i love the theme, but i want to change the font color on the start menu.

it is not a .theme installed with tf3d config, its just manila files copied over to my windows folder.

I have now downloaded a lot of theme editing apps and i want to start making my own as well...
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] herg62123:
task manager - hkey current user/software/htc/taskmanager

change ManilaCustomText to 00ffffff (dword value)

start menu - hkey local machine/software/htc/enlargemenu

change ManilaCustomText to 00ffffff (dword value)

these values changes the text to white while manila is running

after you make the changes soft reset your device
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] Warjcowski:
NM. somebody who knows WAY more than I answered.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] herg62123:
sorry i beat you to it
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] FarBeyond:
wont let me do lower case ffffff only FFFFFF
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] herg62123:
it will still do the samething....so that is fine

soft reset after you make the changes
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] FarBeyond:
okie...

so im using PHM Reg Editor.

Im at the location, I open the key up...

i change the Value Data to 00FFFFFF

do i do it in bin hex or dec?

its not saving it...
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] herg62123:
hex

- if you are using the fuze
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] FarBeyond:
YES!

You are the MAN!

;)

The more I learn, the more I can do to help :)
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] herg62123:
there are people on here that know more than me but i will help any way i can

What is the best BT headset with A2DP and a mute button if there are any?

At the very least I am looking for a good BT headset for the Raphael that has a mute button. I constantly need to mute unmute my calls and I can't believe the Raphael doesn't have more side buttons. I have a fuze and am trying to program the PTT to do this but so far no luck. thanks for any info.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Accessories] goomeister:
Plantronics Voyager 855

Plantronics Voyager 855 seems to have mute and a2dp. I might have found the answer
[Touch Pro, Fuze Accessories] Cain0z:
I love my Plantonrics Voyager 855.

It a great headset. Only issue is the boom on it feels kinda weak.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Accessories] mouth:
Sennheiser MM200
[Touch Pro, Fuze Accessories] trinode:
I got some with my sony wireless walkman, didn't realise they took calls too, freaked me out when my Boss' voice came through...

They have play, pause (as good as mute) functions and next / previous track, and volume control too.

model is DRBT21GB
[Touch Pro, Fuze Accessories] El_ninio:
I bought the Bluetrek Duo headset, it can be used both like a single or an A2DP headset. Works like a charm both ways with touch pro, music plays realy nice. It comes with 3.5mm jack so you can put whatever headset you wish.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Accessories] wadeduncan:

Motorola S9 is great for stereo, has mute, answers phone, mp3, etc.

Plantronics 510 does all the above, in mono
[Touch Pro, Fuze Accessories] lbhocky19:
how does your s9 work outside?

i have the hd and inside its great but outside its absoloutely awful

and if i put the phone close to to my head its bad but somehow if its in my pocket it works better
[Touch Pro, Fuze Accessories] DarkDvr:
Any more reviews on Voyager 855? I just ordered one, it looks like it will solve all the problems that I have.

How does the music sound? Anybody used it for VOIP (skype, ventrilo) with Vista?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Accessories] x-online:
I thought the S9HD is a better one ... how is the 'talk' when you're outside say window down or in the bus/train?

I'm still waiting for it to be available in Australia.. sigh~

I used Voyager 855 and returned it as it got some cracking noise when put it in my pocket (pants)... music quality is good but not as loud enough. A few issue when trying to make it works for the first time....

Also thinking of getting the DRBT21GB as well.. to see how well it perform...
[Touch Pro, Fuze Accessories] bapski:
has anyone tried sony's HBHIS800?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Accessories] dukeneverwinter:
I like my s9-hd. Gets pretty good range. Sounds good in stereo. Good enough in calls. only issue I have is bike commuting. I have the phone in my saddle bag behind me and it seem to be about 60% successful. Sometimes it is perfect. other times it is so skippy that I just go without. If I put it in my camleback when I mountain Bike I have no issues at all. The only thing I can think off is that wither tha fabric of the bag is interfering or my body is interfering, or both.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Accessories] djpaul:
I had S9, then Switched to HD version. Love it. I'm in construction, so noise is an issue, but with S9HD I enjoy music, bluetouth and perfect earplugs. Highly recommended. Just watch out for ebay fakes. I bought mine at Best Buy with $10 extra fro 2 year warranty, No regrets
[Touch Pro, Fuze Accessories] edskii:
I just got MotoROKR S605. IMHO, it's simply one of the best BT stereo headsets on the market. I had Jabra BT3030 before, but it wasn't loud enough; then i had Sony Ericsson DS980, but battery life sucked; Finally, i found S605 that has decent headsets that come with it, battery meter is a good option too. It has a built-in radio, all control buttons are so easy to access. The only con it has - micro usb charging port.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Accessories] sefki:
HBH-IS800

Hej,

yes i have the hbh-is800 and its great. Sound is good and loud.

i also have the Plantonrics Voyager 855. I find the hbh-IS800 better because its small and pretty. The bluetooth is better by the hbh-is800.

I advise you to HBH-is800
[Touch Pro, Fuze Accessories] hyachts:
FWIW - pretty happy with my Voyager 855. Performs well in mono and stereo. Way better than my old Motorola headset on all counts. My only gripe is that none of the included earbuds fits my ear quite well enough to go without the ear hook for any real length of time (and certainly not if I was being active).
[Touch Pro, Fuze Accessories] pazookie:
I agree..i ordered my 855 from buy.com for around 50 bux but it wouldnt turn on..so i sent it back got another one and i fell in love right away..and yes none of the earbuds fit my ear either forcing me to use the hook and that still causes it to pull away from my head eventually causing the headset to hang and point down which looks retarded but whatever..(i wonder why more headset companies dont use flexible earhooks like my old jabra bt160 had..it also vibrated which was fun :))..except when using the stereo adapter..that stays in about 80% of the time..and when JAMMED in the sound quality is quite good..enough to get some good bass..my only gripe is you cant change the volume unless the bt is active (in call while connected or with a2dp active) and ive been experiencing some weirdness lately..maybe its my rom but sometimes it will just disconnect from my device and force the call back to the handset and sometimes i cant get any audio when making a call forcingme to use the nadset until i turn off and on the 855..but other than that im glad i bought it

dxTop : The Android Home Alternative is now available for sale using this link:

Purchase dxTop

I've released this here first and made it available outside the market so all the non-US users can get their hands on it. I will hold off a few days and see how things go with this version.

I also want to thank the community for helping me fix some of the issues that I still had with it.

Cheers,

John
[G1 Apps and Games] rickyteddyb:
Just want to know

Is this version stable?
[G1 Apps and Games] Gimpeh:
For those that purchased via this link; how can we expect to recieve updates? I lack patience and if theres anyway I can get it prior I will but this will make it difficult to get updates via the market.
[G1 Apps and Games] TheMasterBaron:
I've been using it like crazy to make sure it works.
[G1 Apps and Games] Phromik:
Purchased, and loving it. All the bugs I found in the demo are fixed, and it even goes to the top screen when you hit the home button like regular home. :) Will let you know if I find any new bugs.
[G1 Apps and Games] Phromik:
Update via market may not work if you buy it early with this link, but since TBM can see who purchased it, he can send them the new versions as they come out. Maybe even betas for this app (and possibly other apps...? <_< lol) But you get my point.
[G1 Apps and Games] rickyteddyb:
one more thing

do themes work on this version?
[G1 Apps and Games] TheMasterBaron:
Yes, I can send emails to users who subscribe to emails durring purchase when a new version comes out. If you use up all your downloads, I can also extend them.
[G1 Apps and Games] Gimpeh:
Hmmm decisions decisions. I want this App so much but not sure whether to wait for the Market or not. Would be ALOT easier updating wise to wait.
[G1 Apps and Games] rickyteddyb:
How long before market version?
[G1 Apps and Games] TheMasterBaron:
No native theme support yet, I plan on looking into adding that next.
[G1 Apps and Games] TheMasterBaron:
If the people who purchase it outside the market don't find any show stoppers by Monday, I'll upload it Monday night (US)
[G1 Apps and Games] AsaSpades:
If we buy it now, we cant get OTA updates unless we repurchase the Market version?
[G1 Apps and Games] Beast84:
Where would we subscribe at? Is there a link on your website?
[G1 Apps and Games] MontAlbert:
i think when you do the google checkout you can subscribe to emails from him- haven't bought it yet- still restoring everything after my wipe :( but will soon after i have back everything up!
[G1 Apps and Games] UnkzDomain:
As awesome as this app is, I really don't want to buy it outside of the Market... please upload this soon. Why even wait till Monday? Honestly, the faster you get it out, the better. Even if there are bugs, I'd still buy it today.
[G1 Apps and Games] TheMasterBaron:
Yes, when you checkout there is an option to subscribe to emails.
[G1 Apps and Games] Gimpeh:
I agree with the above poster. I'd buy it tonight if it were on Market. This way I could get OTA updates. I beggeth!
[G1 Apps and Games] TheMasterBaron:
I'm a little gun shy right now. I want to make sure I don't blow it with a huge bug.
[G1 Apps and Games] UnkzDomain:
Yeah, you could add some auto-update code that downloads an apk from your website to it. That (along with theming) would be a welcome feature.
[G1 Apps and Games] TheMasterBaron:
So you bought it from my website instead of the market? Did you try uninstalling dxTop and then reinstalling it?
[G1 Apps and Games] cente:
I bought it from internet and paid with Paypal 15minutes ago

in the market there is no Pro version form me

I'm in Italy , is a regional problem...???

The demo version found in the market WORKS

The demo versione from SD card DOESN'T WORK

The Pro version from SD card DOESN'T WORK

I can't unistall the dxtop pro because it doesnt appear in the application list (the demo version downloaded from the market appears...)
[G1 Apps and Games] TheMasterBaron:
Let me try it using AppsInstaller and let you know
[G1 Apps and Games] cente:
just wait a minute...

I've didnt read all, after installation he says:

Application install unsuccessful

I've always thinkd it was ok because there is a green flag before it but he says unsuccesful so it's clear that it doesnt appear

same problem also with apk installer

it's really strange because the demo version work well if installed from the market
[G1 Apps and Games] TheMasterBaron:
Ahh, then try the steps in 4th entry of the FAQ: http://dxtop.wikidot.com/faq
[G1 Apps and Games] cente:
I followed the info on your site and used the unsigned demo version

it install , I uninstall as you says , I install again the pro version but it still doesnt complete the installation

I'm going crazy
[G1 Apps and Games] cente:
we had the same idea togheter (yesterday I was reading the faq in your site )

but also following the info it doesn't work

I really think my g1 have a problem but what !!?!!?!?

it's so strange that the DEMO from the market works well and the other not

I really don't know
[G1 Apps and Games] cente:
HERE WE AREEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!

I used another SD Card in order to install and it workd!!!!!

what a f__k!

now I only have to understand if the SD Card 4gb is not working fine or if the old one (2gb ) with only the apk on the root level was the only way in order to install this new beautiful program

anyway thanks for help

now I'm a little bit less crazy
[G1 Apps and Games] TheMasterBaron:
Interesting! When rooting my phone, there were all sorts of comments about formatting your SD cards as fat32 if you have problems. Perhaps the 4gb is is fat32, and the 2gb is not.
[G1 Apps and Games] cente:
I followed the right commets during rooting and formatting the 4gb card that is already fat32 as you wrote.

Also the other 2gb is fat32 but it was completely empty except for the apk in the root level

The 4gb have an Apps folder and inside dxtop pro....

but I don't think that the root level is the real reason.

maybe the 4gb card is not working well?

This is the first example for this strange malfunction...

really HAVE NO IDEA

anyway really tahnks for support and for thsi new good home program

I wait for new widgets and other!!
[G1 Apps and Games] yeticomes:
Hello,

I tried the demo and now purchased DxTop via Paypal. Using the Downloadlink I get a File with the ending .bin (and no name, just numbers).

How do I install this?!

Thanx

SOLVED IT BY MYSELF: just opened the bin with Linda and installed with the Package installer (expected a apk-File) - works fine, thank you
[G1 Apps and Games] androidmonkey:
Just curious why you didnt use the Android Market to download?
[G1 Apps and Games] Tylerspilker:
is the demo comperable in operating ability?

I tried the aHome demo and was very disappointed at it's slowness when returning home.

I dont want to wait 10 seconds for my homescreen to load just to have an extra page or 2 and weather.

if I try the demo of dxTop is it going to tell me if i should spend $4 on this app or keep using the default. (I still haven't set up a google checkout and dont feel like it yet.)
[G1 Apps and Games] MontAlbert:
yes except for the inbuilt delay. i have all 3 homes on my g1- dxtop kicks butt. faster, cleaner, easier to get to certain pages.
[G1 Apps and Games] Tylerspilker:
I dont know if I am sold on the idea of third party home screens yet.

Ive played with all three demos and I wasn't that impressed by the features to justify the clunkiness that I felt they had.
[G1 Apps and Games] tanner2007:
A few questions

1)how do i read this memory widget? like whats good and whats bad?

2)is this thing running up my memory iv been having laggy slow and more problems and wanna know if its maybe the app
[G1 Apps and Games] dwang:
Version 1.0.9 is really nice. Seems to have fixed all the lag and memory issues for me.

I personally don't care about all the widgets or themes. All I want is a fast desktop and the 4 screens swiping.
[G1 Apps and Games] tanner2007:
Looks like someone made something like it

http://betterandroid.wordpress.com/

7 home screens all can have there own skin..
[G1 Apps and Games] MontAlbert:
nothing new- there is a post about this one already- Openhome- tried it, didn't like it- i would if there was a way to get from one page to another with a single action- eg. from page 1 to page 6 etc.

***EDIT*** Dxtop now has theme support for those with root!!!! I love the way developers seem to be always trying to improve apps!!
[G1 Apps and Games] gPhunk:
I'm sorry brother. I meant "dxTop" and not "home" in the below path. But you probably figured that out or someone else helped out by now.

Go to Settings==>Applications==>Manage Applications==>dxTop==> Hit "clear defauilts"
[G1 Apps and Games] tanner2007:
Dont work with cha ninja theme :(
[G1 Apps and Games] jjcd51590:
HaHa

I liked the app so much I payed through ur website and market haha keep up the good work
[G1 Apps and Games] ei8htohms:
me too

Admittedly partially because I really like the app and partially because I want the convenience of Market updates. Still...
[G1 Apps and Games] Beast84:
How exactly does this work? I have the option in the settings checked to allow themes but when I tried adding a theme, nothing changed. Anyone else get it to work?
[G1 Apps and Games] MontAlbert:
worked for me ok. I just made my own theme- a geelong Football club theme with Kspec icons- all i had to do was allow themes in the options menu......
[G1 Apps and Games] kathi17:
Thanks for making the Paypal purchasing option. I don't have Google checkout, and if I really like this app, it will probably mean the difference between buying this one and buying aHome!

I downloaded the demos of all three desktops, and am trying to decide which one I like best. So far, I haven't tried the themes for your's yet. (I have root).

I'm checking out your page now to get tips on using it.
[G1 Apps and Games] Ryanmo5:
I have a question, can you add an option to hide the 2 tabs? The only reason I haven't bought it yet is because of 2 tabs, my theme now hides my tab which i love because it makes home screen look a lot cleaner. Just wanted to ask, figured it would be a cool option. :)
[G1 Apps and Games] nolageek:
Anyone else having problems with dxTop taking forever to load Even directly after a reboot.. if I leave another app by pressing the home button, I get the two tabs and my wallpaper, then it sits there for like, 10 seconds, then the icons show. WOndering if it's conflicting with something I've recently installed, but I can't think of anything.
[G1 Apps and Games] Beast84:
I noticed this also... I have the persistent mode turned on but it still takes a while. I'm scared to see how long it takes with persistent mode disabled
[G1 Apps and Games] MontAlbert:
really? Mine works really well- no lag at all!
[G1 Apps and Games] nolageek:
It's really getting to the point of making me want to stop using it. It takes 1-+ seconds sometimes to initially load... then it'll be fine for a couple hours then it'll start lagging big time. I'm thinking it might be low memory on the phone (I have 12MB left.)

I'd like to try to move my apps to the SDCARD but I keep having issues with formatting as ext2.
[G1 Apps and Games] shaneaus:
DxTop works well on my phone without lag. I have all my apps on the ext2 partition of my SDcard.

"I'd like to try to move my apps to the SDCARD but I keep having issues with formatting as ext2."

I had to use partition manager to create the two partitions. Then I used Windows XP to format ONLY the larger partition. After that was completed I closed Windows down and used the Unbuntu Live disk to run Linux. I used Linux Gpart to format ONLY the ext2 partition.

Then it all worked fine. I simply COULD NOT get windows xp, Partition Manager, or Unbuntu to format both the fat32 and the ext2 partitions while only using one of those systems/programs. I had to do it the way I described in the previous paragraph to get both partitions formatted in the different format types.

Hope that helps. I have been using DxTop for awhile now and like it better than anything else I have seen for a home screen.

Also, the new version allows the theme to change the look of the tab. So, for the user who wanted his tabs invisible all he needs to do is find a theme (or make a theme) that does that task and it will work with dxTop.
[G1 Apps and Games] nolageek:
It was totally 100% the browser cache. It was up to 23MB. I cleared it and dxTop started zipping along again like it was brand new. I think at the very least I'm going to move my caches to the sdcard.
[G1 Apps and Games] d474rpr:
Okay, so I have a bit of an issue...

I created a digital clock widget for my personal enjoyment but everytime I install the widget from eclipse it causes dxtop to activate "Safemode". I only know this from the debug output. While in "Safemode" I cannot see any of my applications in my tab menu, nor can I see applications in the manager. I have to force dxtop to crash and then select to restore my default home before I can see my apps again. They are there and can be called up, however this is really weird behavior. Anyone have any clue?
[G1 Apps and Games] gPhunk:
Errors since last couple of updates

Ever since we got the "Theme" update for dxTop it hasn't been nearly as stable as it was initially. I have the latest version and am experiencing the following:

1) Error during initial boot. "If you are seeing this message, the dxTop did not shutdown gracefully. This could be from a freak accident, a bad widget, or from a power loss." I have no widgets other than the memory one made by the Barron so that isn't it and I manually power down each night.

2) The 2nd error is when switching themes,"The application dxTop (processandroid.process.acore) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again. Force close." I either get this or it just freezes all together.

3) The market icon seems to get stuck in the "Glossy Minimalism" theme regardless of which theme you run.

4) The occasional force close when pulling up an app. This has happened with K9 mail, calculator, and shop savvy.

I have my apps, cache, and data on my SD card and according to the memory widget it's has about 37MB of free memory on average...

Now I LOVE this app and think it's the best version on the market (who the hell wants 7-10 freakin screens?!), but these errors are getting a bit old. I suppose however that I'm spoiled based on how great/stable this app was prior to these updates! :) Anyone else experiencing similar challenges since the last couple of updates?
[G1 Apps and Games] t1h5ta3:
i get error # 1, and phone book now keeps crashing unexpectedly...... no other changes...
[G1 Apps and Games] dwang:
I've gone back to the stock home application.

Dxtop is a bit too unstable now.

I don't like the layout of open home at all.

Ahome is probably the best, but I can't change any of the icons with bettercut so thats out.
[G1 Apps and Games] shaneaus:
I haven't had any problems at all since the update.
[G1 Apps and Games] T-McGill:
I was getting #1 and #4 frequently. I have all apps and data on sd. I fixed the problem by:

#rm -r /system/sd/data/com.android.dxtop.launcher

Dxtop is much more stable afterwards.
[G1 Apps and Games] cal3thousand:
What does that accomplish?

deleting the dxtop launcher? Please I HAVE TO KNOW!!!! :D
