Has any worked with the Camera API on windows? I tried using the DirectShow on HTC Tilt and Samsung Propel Pro, the resolution is not that great on both. Any ideas?
[Windows Mobile Software Development] arcanemyth:
Have you tried this? Because it was pretty ok when I tried it sometime back.

Also, you may want to have a look on how MyMobiler captures the mobile screen,cuz it shows each camera frame perfectly without any problems. My two cents...

[General Questions and Answers] D0cStrange:
Hello,

I actually have an HTC TyTN II, with all the stuff it should have, you know, the car thing, the desk station, the leather phone case, and the bluetooth stereo headset (Nokia BH-503), and it is a good device, but it is becoming old and older, some times it won't load the manilla, and it also have problems loading anything that is stocked in the internal memory (messages, contacts, settings), it is really becoming old...

Well, i wanted to change it for something new, something much more powerful, I noticed the motorola droid, it seems to be a pretty phone, but i don't want that keyboard anymore (i'm not anymore the geek i was...), the hero is a good choice you may say, but it is still a little expensive, and i have the feeling that the 528 mhz processor is not that powerful...

So i'm looking for a new gen mobile phone, based on Android OS, having a processor of lets say 1ghz (like the snapdragon one), Wifi, bluetooth with A2DP support (for my nokia headset), Gps (i'm doing market studies, i need to move so much, and i really don't know brussels that well), and if possible the accelerometer and the compass for enhanced reality.

I don't watch movies on my devices, but i won't refuse a good resolution, i play games from time to time, but most of time it is solitaire...

I'm a music addict, so it needs to have a good standby time with bluetooth activated, and why not some good internal memory (in my 8gb SDcard i have over 5gb of music).

so, can you recommend me anything?

hi there, I'm looking for a good fm-transmitter to use with my hd2. I use a lot of different cars during the day due to work and the only car that has a line-in is my own. I can't change anything about those cars because they are not mine.

Now I need a fm-transmitter to use my hd2 in those cars. Who has one or had one and can recommend one. I read a lot about ****ty quality and bad reception, that's why I'm asking you guys. and the one limitation is that I don't want one to plug into the car-charger. the one I have my eye on is the Belkin TuneCast 2/3.

I hope you can help me chose a good one.
[HD2 Accessories] Armes:
After some siginificant research, and some very disappointing results with cheap chinese FM transmitters, I bought my wife a Motorola T505, see here:

http://video.google.co.uk/videosear...orola+55+handsfee+fm&vid=-4588731908718964954

Very easy to set up and use, and the sound quality is very good. Battery life is also good although it can be connected to a car charger via it's mini usb (and we all have loads of them lying about now HTC have gone micro, right?). it's well made and just feels quality right out of the box.

All, in all, I'm very happy with the result, especially as it knocks the others for six costwise.
[HD2 Accessories] ghost-5:
what i would like is something similar to this

so that I can simply unplug it from my own car and straight into the works van and keep it charged with minimal fuss.

My friend has one like this for his ipod and it works great.

Has anyone seem anything similar? or is it too early for products like this to be released yet
[HD2 Accessories] XaMaB:
I'm using http://www.chronos.com.tw/_products_0616/mp3/Car mp3-delux/Car mp3-delux.htm for 3 years, first with usb stick, later with WM phones.

Just need to switch usb mode on phone to "storage card/disk drive" and you get music from memery card + car charger.

Sound quality is as good as normal fm radio station. Worse than cd/mp3 car player, but usefull for multiple cars.
[HD2 Accessories] FunMCRider:
I am using this motorola motorokrt505 bluetooth fm transmitter it works seamlessly with LEO and Xperia X1 music and phone. It will answer calls and switch between songs in your play list, it will even start your HTC music player without going into the phones menu. Battery life on it is superb I charge it once a week and have never ran out of battery.

[HD2 Accessories] d3l1:
I ordered a Belkin Tunecast II and will report back soon. It's enough for my usage and it should do the trick, hope the quality is ok.
[HD2 Accessories] de5perate:
I have been using the Venturi Mini http://www.myventuri.com/overview.aspx for a while now with my iPhone and it works brilliantly - A2DP stereo bluetooth, a USB connector to enable you to charge your HD2 and it does handsfree calling.

I have been impressed with the sound quality (once you've found an FM channel that is free all the way from home to work). It connects to your phone reliably and simply - press any button when you get in the car and it pairs.

The only problem I have had with it is if you go out of range of it for a short period of time (If you leave for a long period it turns itself off) - when you return to your car it doesn't automatically pair. But you simply have to remove it briefly from the cigarette and push it back in
[HD2 Accessories] Adita:
de5perate,

If I may ask a few questions:

1. Do you use the Venturi to charge your HD2? I believe it only delivers 500mA on the USB, and I'm not sure that's enough to charge the HD2. I wouldn't want to buy one only to find out that I can't charge my HD2.

2. Do you use your Venturi and HD2 for satnav as well? If so, are you happy with the combination?

3. Somebody told me that you could listen to your favourite radio station and when a call comes through, the radio automatically commutes to the Venturi frequency and you can take the call. Is this true?

Thank you very much.
[HD2 Accessories] Pixel:
I got the Jabra SP700 yesterday (£34 from Amazon). Only had one journey with it and a quick play, but it seems good so far. The FM transmitter seems nice and strong, and the speakerphone seems to work well.
[HD2 Accessories] d3l1:
got my tunecast II today and had the chance to test it with two standalone fm-radios and it seems to work fine, given you place it in a good position towards the antenna. will have a try tomorrow in my car at work, a new VW Passat. Hope it works there as well.
[HD2 Accessories] ghost-5:
+1 for wanting to know this also. This looks like a good piece of kit.

Also what connection comes out of the unit to charge the HD2? USB?
[HD2 Accessories] Pixel:
the HD2 charges from a PC USB connection, there's an option to disable it when sync'[d, so it must do. USB only provides 500ma, so it should be charge, although it might be a little slower than from a mains charger.
[HD2 Accessories] timsah:
The Answer is late, but could be useful for other users

It charges HD2 without any problems.

I use it with Tomtom, works just fine.

This is true and when your call is finished it automatically plays music back again :)

The only problem is the backround noise being too loud. It is hissing.

Anyone know how to fix that? I would really appreciate your help.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] devwithzachary:
I have a HTC magic 32B (English vodafone) and would really like to use a HTC sense ROM that would work on my phone, im running cyanogen 4.2.5 right now and like it very much but really love the senses UI and added features (multi touch and flash would be the best!).

So i was wondering which ROM would be the best for me, i would rather one that was updated alot really so i know bugs are getting fixed. Also i would need everything to be working (wifi, BT etc.) and would love to have multi touch and flash but if i cant o well. So does anyone have any ROM's they think would suit me?

(just moved from where i posted it before as was told this is where it should go)
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] WebghostDK:
Don't use Hero ROMS.

Use the Sense UI build for Magic's.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=561982

I can recommend this one, it is smooth :)
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] hudl:
Yeah, i too love the sense UI but with time i got dissapointed of the speed of every single sense ROM i tried - although our cooks have done a really great job of pushing it to the limits. I think they can't get faster as they are now - it' the HTC ROM with all the features itself...

I used eViL's nano sense (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=577797) that's really fast (as can get with sense UI) and stable. You have to select what you want to install and it's limited, but who uses every part of sense?

Well, in daily use it pointed out, when making and receiving calls and switching between applications it was too slow for me (lags,...). I needed full exchange support and so the only alternative was a rogers ROM: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=555499

It has multitouch and double tap to zoom in / tripple tap to zoom out in browser and has also youtube built in. You don't have to mess with partitioning and swap and for now, i'm really impressed with the speed of it. Just using it for two days now, so i will see how stable it is. But it's such a big difference in terms of speed, that every sense UI ROM will have to compete with it for me.

I really appreciate the hard work and effort every cook puts in his ROM development. And i hope they will get it as fast as the native android. But sadly, i think it's just not possible...

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] jbass350z:
OK. I have a strange problem. I built a new PC and loaded Win7 x64 on it. Everything was working fine. I was even using my TP2 to tether. This worked for about an hour. After a few reboots and software installs, I could no longer connect to my TP2 either through tethering or through WMDC.

I struggled for hours to figure out the problem, but nothing worked. Finally I reinstalled Win7 hoping that would fix it. Nope. It did not. No matter what I try, Win7 fails to install the driver for the device. I have downloaded new copies of WMDC from MS and that hasnt helped.

Any thoughts? It is working fine on my Vista machine.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] fun_key:
It may not be of great help, but mine works fine with w7 x64 (with USB). I am using the HTC official 6.5 rom.

It was a little more tricky to use the internet sharing with BT, a driver could not be found for a component but everything was working though. I had to force windows to use a driver for that unknown device to rid of this cosmetic issue.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] eras2r:
RE-download the WMDC from microsoft. There is a driver update that will install. The WMDC that comes with Win7 didn't work for me either, but after I reinstalled it worked great.

Also, your ROM may be runnin a USBtoPC service for the Popup Window to appear. You might want to soft reset your phone and try again.

[General Questions and Answers] trepamuros:
Hello,

I've searched deeply but I can't find what I'm looking for.

I'm searching for a very simple application: One that could set defined volume levels (system and phone) and vibration on/off when run (with parameters). I mean, a way to create/edit/change phone profiles (like G-Profile does), but simpler.

I'm not interested in scheduler or toggle phone on/off (this is well done by G-Profile). I'm looking for a much simpler application.

For example, the app would be great if allow this commandline:

application.exe -ringer 0 -system 50 -vibrate on

... and set mute ringer, system sounds to 50% and activate vibration.

Do you know something similar?

Thanks in advance.

I am a psychotherapist and would love an app to do this:

At 15 minutes from the end of an appointment a gentle sound would play to remind me that I should wrap things up

At 10 minutes a different sound to REALLY wrap things up

At the end of the appointment a different loud sound should signal.

What do you think? I don’t believe anything like this exists.

- I would love if the program could have a configurable number of reminders and sounds to play.

- It would also be great if it would only do this for appointments with a specific category and status.

- It would also help if you could configure the volume to be at the system volume setting, or a specified volume.

- It would be nice if there was a big button to enable/disable the whole thing.

Do you think? Would this be hard to write? Would someone be up for the challenge?

I am guessing other professions would benefit from it e.g. lawyers, massage therapists, anyone who works by the hour. A small niche, but one who would really eat this app up :-)

Thanks!

[Windows Mobile Software Development] frazell:
Interesting idea.

I might add it to my list of Windows Mobile applications to develop depending on how things shape up. This looks like a good application to offer in the sub $3-$5 price range.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] speed_mark:
Hi Frazell,

Glad you may be interested. I used to develop software, so I can be a good beta tester, and think that I can specify what I am looking for well. Hopefully we can make a good developer-tester team. Let me know. Sounds fun to the be user for once :-).

Hi,

I am fairly certain I could Mort script your entire wishlist posted here. Mortscript is not as cool as a .net app, but does not lack in speed or power.

Wouldn't be too hard. Obviously a lot of timing logic, but no big deal. There are already a number of timing scripts that I am sure would plug right in.

I don't know if anybody would be interested if I pushed it out? I may use this concept app as a test showcase (big word) for my HTML based Mortscript menus. This means the Buttons you push to start/dismiss alarms can look real nice with a background or color scheme.

Thanks for listening,

Keith
[Windows Mobile Software Development] speed_mark:
Hi Guys,

I would be absolutely delighted if either if you gave it a shot. I tried to flesh out my specs. Not all of these are necessary for me, but I tried to think of how to make it as attractive as possible or a wide range of users.

-	An unlimited number of reminders with different sounds/volumes. Perhaps you can specify with timing from the beginning or end of the appointment. i.e. you can specify 10 minutes from the end, or ten minutes from the beginning

-	The volume should be selectable as a system volume or specific volume. This is important since I often want all OTHER reminders to be silent while I am in an appointment.

- Vibrate option

-	A play test button on the screen where you choose the sound to test how it will actually sound

So the screen to set up sounds may look like this:

_(Sound file)_ _(minutes)_ _(from begin/end)_ _ (Vol)_ _(Vibrate?) _ (Play Button)_

_(Sound file)_ _(minutes)_ _(from begin/end)_ _ (Vol)_ _(Vibrate?) _ _ (Play Button)_

_(Sound file)_ _(minutes)_ _(from begin/end)_ _ (Vol)_ _(Vibrate?) _ _ (Play Button)_

__(Add Another Reminder Button)___

-	The (Add Another Reminder Button) shown above will add another line.

-	Perhaps different profiles based on appointment status/category/time combinations.

-	Perhaps profile switching from the command line so it can be controlled by a third party profile app (e.g. phone alarm)

-	Perhaps three big digital clocks current time; elapsed appointment time; remaining appointment time.

-	It should not put an unnecessary drain on the battery. i.e. it should allow the phone to sleep if they do not want to see the clock screen on all the time. Obviously it would still wake to ring the reminder tones .

-	Perhaps a finger friendly manual profile switch button.

-	Perhaps a finger friendly enable/disable button

-	Perhaps an easy way to make it start up with the phone automatically.

If profiles are too complicated, it would be fine without profiles, as long as you can enable/disable the program by the command line. That way other profile managers can handle that. I think that without profiles the program should be relatively easy. Perhaps profiles can be a 2.0 idea.

Thanks!

[Windows Mobile Software Development] speed_mark:
Hi guys,

Well I could not help myself - I ended up coding it myself in Mortscript. Thanks Keith for the reference to Mortscript - I had seen the name on the board, but had never known what is was.

Unfortunately, it is all hard-coded to my requirements. I do not know how to put a user-interface on it so that it would be extensible to other users. Perhaps this is what you were going to do Keith?

Thanks,

Mark
[Windows Mobile Software Development] howdykeith:
That is great.

Could you post the script?

I was going to start with the user interface first. I wasn't too thrilled to set up the reminder code, so this is a bonus.

I can also add code to store settings and whatnot if you have not done so already...

:)
[Windows Mobile Software Development] speed_mark:
Hi Keith,

Here we go. I have tried to make the code as easy as possible to follow. You will see the first few section are all the parameters which are currently hard-coded, and would need to be made accessible via the interface you write.

Currently it only works in Pacific Daylight Savings Time. The variable offset is coded for this. Perhaps you can figure out how to get this to work for all time zones.

I also have another problem. If the phone goes to sleep, the alarms will not work. I am guessing I need to put some sort of logic to put a program in the notification queue or something. Any ideas? Can you do this on your side?

Thanks,

Mark
[Windows Mobile Software Development] speed_mark:
OK, I solved the issue with the phone going to sleep. I also added a few new features.

It still does not work other time zones - perhaps you have some ideas.

There are two files "reminder.mort" starts the program; "reminderKill" stops the program.

Here you go. Enjoy!

Mark
[Windows Mobile Software Development] howdykeith:
Hi.

As fast as I can I am finishing up my Ringtone update.

There is a timezonebias command and I expect that will fix the time zone issue.

"Phone goes to sleep". I wonder what that means ;). But seriously. I am fairly certain I will get to peruse your code and set up a interface for it maybe even by tomorrow night (elves willing).
[Windows Mobile Software Development] speed_mark:
Great Keith!

I am excited to see what it would look like :-)
[Windows Mobile Software Development] howdykeith:
So I have been digging in.

I am just posting a initial start alpha.

It's not working, just for show.

I did drop it into a cab file so u can install/uninstall it.

[Windows Mobile Software Development] speed_mark:
Hey Keith,

That is looking like a nice start!

[Windows Mobile Software Development] howdykeith:
Betterer Version

So this version connects most of the dots.

Why don't u enclose 3 sound files so we can cab em up and set them as default sounds?

Delete your ini file if you are just copying mscr over.

Maybe next version i will make sure it baks up and is able to restore from a reinstall. Probly better to store them in the registry for just such an emergency. ("I keep my feathers numbered...", Foghorn Leghorn)
[Windows Mobile Software Development] speed_mark:
Hey Keith,

That rocks! Very cool!

Here are some issues/suggestions I had - you probably are aware of many:

-I tried to run it with the latest "stable" mortscript, and all I got was an error that the sub "Mortscript" was not found.

-I then downloaded the latest beta from the website; the program then connected and downloaded another even later version. It then got an error trying to install that version. I moved the file it downloaded to the right place, and then finally it worked :-).

- Can we make the interface a little easier to use with your fingers? Particularly the "Activate/Deactivate buttons"?

- Can we have a check box "Automatically Run At Startup (in the background)"?

- Can we make the other reminder parameters configurable by the interface i.e."time"; "flashes"; vibrate"

- I like the INI file idea - that is cool.

Congratulations! Super cool!

I will ZIP up the sound files tomorrow for you.

Mark
