[Touch Pro2 CDMA] WatermelonSlim:
So SPB Mobile Shell is not using the G sensor or the 3D acceleration on my Sprint Touch Pro 2.

On the device settings I have it set to use the G sensor. So Opera uses it, Sprint TV uses it, etc. But SPB Mobile Shell is not detecting it for some reason, and I don't even have the option to use it in the SPB Mobile Shell settings.

Has anyone out therte got the 3D accelleration and G sensor to work in Mobile Shell 3.5 on a Sprint Touch Pro 2? Specifically, on the carousel view screen- it is not asking if I want to use the G sensor, and it is not giving me the 3D carousel...

This is with the stock Nobile Shell 3.5, on the stock Sprint 6.1 ROM (no cooked ROMs, no Mobile Shell themes or anything).
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] kamitsuna:
I managed to use the carousel just fine with SPB mobile shell 3.5. The problem i had with it was it sometimes not backing out of contact profiles. You would have to reboot to get back to the desktop, just uninstalled it this afternoon. Hoping to god 6.5 just works.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] WatermelonSlim:
I have Mobile Shell 3.5 working flawlessly on my GSM Touch Pro 2 with a stock WWE 6.1 ROM. But it doesn't want to work on this Sprint version for some reason.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] Harvz:
If you installed the Mobile Shell 3.5 on your phone.

You might wanna check out the softkey (Call History and Contats ) on the phone screen( left side of the green Talk softkey) if it is still functioning.

The Mobile Shell 3.5 is not fully compatible with the Rhodium device.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] WatermelonSlim:
Never mind. I figured it out. I guess the default setting in Mobile Shell's "system" setting is to not use 3D accelleration (at least on this Sprint model). Once I changed it to use it I then had the option to use G sensor and it worked.
[Touch Pro2 CDMA] WatermelonSlim:
Yep, you're right. That key doesn't work on mine either. I do have SPB soft keys for call history and contacts that work though.

Excellent work man. I have kind of a request...could you make me a Moto Blur themed Hero? Meaning the red presets, basically replacing the green with red and also making the greyish darker if that makes sense? OR just simply replacing the green presets with blue.
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] dying4004:
ratcom: bro why did u say that u cant make good graphics when u can make such awesome themes?? :D:D

awesome work bro. simply cool.

but the music player is still the original color, no change?

albums & email app as well

& when i select the icons, can see the icon selection in 2 red tones, instead of 1 solid color, is that how it's supposed to be?
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] bunt83:
Hey Ratcom!

Nice work.

Are you planning on porting the other 3 colours from "Teh Dust" i.e green, blue and purple?

I love the theme, but just not the colour! ;o)

Thanks

[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] ratcom:

[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] pookie1:
Did you add the stuff that is missing from Teh Dust's packs?

I can't remember what exactly is missing, but stuff like the HSDPA icons still have the grey backgrounds. I ported the green pack and made a few changes, but there's still some stuff needs fixing, which is why I didn't release it yet.

Edit - Just had another look and remembered the problem I ran into last time. I can't find the HSDPA icons anywhere! Any idea where to find them? I've got my icons edited and ready to go, just need to add them!

Also, I can see some in framework that have an R over the bars, but not the H. What are those R ones??
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] ratcom:
R is for roaming ;)

all the icons are in framework-res\res\drawable I think ???
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] pookie1:
Ah that makes sense!

I can't spot the H icons in that folder though. All the other ones are there but not the HSDPA ones it seems. Maybe I'm just being dumb, but I can't find them anywhere :confused:

That's why I want an unrooted one. and for others like the cliq & the droid (I believe) cant get root yet even though they are already 2.0 (So I've heard).

Hi, i was a looking for an aplication like ConnTwaek, this app works in this form:

"I recently fell into a nasty little evil trap with my Windows Mobile 5.0 Smartphone HTC MTeOR: After changeing my mobile phone contract to a supposedly cheaper tarif, i accidentely ran up a monthly bill of about 1000€, because my Smartphone did not automatically end the data connection. Well GPRS/EDGE/UMTS/HSDPA is a packet based system, so usually you are billed per KB datatraffic. Some operators however think time based billing is a marvelous idea. So my phone was idle (= not transfering any data), but still connected... and alas...

Well naturally i cancelled my contract with that particular operator immediately after they refused to correct the bill and in order to avoid these problems in the future i wrote [ConnTweak V1.0.1], which allows setting the idle-timeout for the data connection. It should run with any Windows Mobile 5.0 based and application unlocked Smartphone. You also need to install the .Net Compact Framework 2.0.

http://home.arcor.de/toluse/www/projects.htm

I need when no there are data transmition then automatly disconect, ConnTwaek works more and less, it olnly let me configure 99 seconds, and only works sometimes, and i need restart the phone when i do any change, when y use live msn the program fails, in my operator country use EVDO or 1X for data

Well sorry for my english my phone is a Titan 6800 WM 6.1 i will wait your opinions, thanks

[HD2 General] Edvard_Greig:
I didn't want to hijack the 'lack of stylus/capacitative screen' thread, but I currently have an original Tilt collecting dust while I've been using a borrowed iPhone 3G until something much better comes along (re: TP2, HD2, Droid??) etc

As mentioned in the other thread, one of the key differences between the iPhone and WinMo devices, is that iPhone developers knew they were developing for devices without styluses or d-pads or keyboards etc, so they suited the app for that experience.

With WinMo, there are so many great legacy applications (productivity and most notably games) that rely on a stylus and/or a dpad to successfully navigate and use the applications. I know from personal experience I was apt to use the stylus less and less on my Tilt because I was able to navigate menus quickly with the dpad etc when they were small.

I know the lack of d-pad is the new trend with a lot [most] WinMo devices and I was hoping someone could comment on that from a usability standpoint. I'm even thinking of simple games like Kevtris etc...I know for some games when you have an option to popup the onscreen keyboard that may alleviate some issues, but I know there are other games that go full screen and don't even remotely give that option...thoughts? Am I overlooking something here?

Thanks!
[HD2 General] vangrieg:
Don't know anything about Kevtris, but a lot of (if not most) games are unusable on Touch HD.

Apart from games, there are some situations when I miss a d-pad, usually in situations of scrolling through lists. Drop-down lists on web pages in Opera is an especially annoying example. In most other cases though there are arrow keys on the HTC keyboard, which do the job, but you only see half of the screen (the other one is occupied by the keyboard).

So, to summarize, lack of a d-pad is a problem sometimes, but on the other hand not a huge one really, and I wouldn't change my HD for anything but HD2, which also lacks one. :)
[HD2 General] chalid:
quoted for truth ... :)
[HD2 General] 8525Smart:
When I first began using smartphones, my first one, the HTC Hermes, had a D-Pad. I have to admit, I was addicted to it instantly.

It made everything so simple. Controlling music, scrolling, and notably J2ME apps/games all worked better with it. When I had upgraded to a Fuze, I lost the D-Pad, and did miss it really badly at first. However, over time, I eventually stopped caring so much for it.

The way I used my device had to be adjusted, but it was nothing so major. However, if there is one thing that is annoying about lack of D-Pad, it is that many J2ME apps/games simply didn't work well without it. I got over that because many J2ME apps/games didn't work well with a VGA/WVGA screen either. Still, it was a rather significant blow.

Would I like a D-Pad on all my devices? Yes, but I no longer view it as necessary.
[HD2 General] Edvard_Greig:
Thanks for the replies guys- it sounds like the consensus is that there is no good 'workaround', and that it's a legitimate issue, but in general the benefits/features of the new device outweigh those cons.
[HD2 General] warnold007:
For lack of D-pad on games, someone here on xda has developed a software to use the accelerometer to send the d-pad buttons (not just for games actually).

I think's it's called gpad or something.

The software is still being developed but it allowed me to play worms on a device without d-pad.

There might be other software, anyone else found anything?

If we support developments like that, we can actually eliminate the 'worry' of not having a d-pad, and still enjoy our games, with more fun actually! :D

hello, every body! (first post!)

great to see all the work done on this forum.

would be interested in HTC HD2, but lack of pad is really annoying. Lots of app need one, just for example navigate in calendar (agenda fusion for me.)

Could it be a solution to write a virtual keybord with ONLY the 4 arrows and an OK button? (and no others letters, to gain display space)

i am definitively not a developper, can't do anything about coding, sadly.

[Hero, G2 Touch General] bradels:
Hi all,

Have done a search through the forum and have not seen anyone with this same problem. So thought I'd shout out to see if it is just me, or if anyone has any ideas on a fix:

My Hero syncs to my work emails and calendar via Exchange 2007 using the built in Exchange sync functionality (Work Emails I think its called).

I am in NZ but I work with a lot of people in the US and often have meeting requests that are set in EST.

Any meeting that is set to NZT comes cross to my Hero with the right day and time. BUT if someone has set the meeting to EST- the phone adjusts the time correctly, but the day wrong!

For example: A Monday 3pm EST meeting is 8am Tuesday NZT.

But on my Hero it displays as if the meeting is 8am

Monday

NZT.

You can imagine how frustrating it is trying to figure out which day is the correct day for meetings.

I previously had a WinMo device and it was fine- so it must be something particular to the Hero/Android.

Has anyone seen this before? Or have any tips about if there is a workaround/fix?
