yes exactly
[Windows Mobile Software Development] mtstmp:
i'm kinda suprised it's not out there already. the palm pre has it and it's a nice feature. kinda reassuring. lets hope someone can pull it together...
[Windows Mobile Software Development] waterproof125:
yea i would see it as a staple in touch screen devices, but maybe it takes too much memory or it gets in the way? im not sure but i know i would definitely use it
[Windows Mobile Software Development] Irishpride:
I am all for this as well, it would be really nice to have.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] howdykeith:
That would be nice.

(Use yer imaginations...) (Loads images and does things to them...)

So if when u click on the screen it takes a screenshot and then does a ripple on that image...

I know Twolf has done ripples in flash, so if flash were an acceptable solution, that would be a method. Have to take more screenshots and load em in to keep it updated..

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=540643

So i don't know how this app exits, but if it could output the coordinates to the registry or a return argument i could at least click on the today screen with them in Mortscript.

I assume BBonz is already half done with the app anyways...
[Windows Mobile Software Development] xawen:
I've been trying to figure out if this is possible from a coding perspective... It seems that (at least with the .net compact framework) that there's no way to hook screen taps. A program like this would actually have to be a driver for the touch panel. The most similar thing anyone has done is TouchResponse. Unfortunately, the author hasn't been online since November...so I can't ask for details on how it was done.

If anyone can help figure out how to create a program, service or driver that can globally hook screen taps and return coordinates...I can probably write this.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] noname81:
Hi xawen,

"If anyone can help figure out how to create a program, service or driver that can globally hook screen taps and return coordinates...I can probably write this."

You can hook all touch events via the PenTrac.dll approach. Have a look at Scilors Multitouch DLL thread. There I explained the approach and posted the sourcecode...
[Windows Mobile Software Development] noname81:
hm, but this is only an approach for the HD2's touch.dll. Not for all Win 6.5 smartphones...
[Windows Mobile Software Development] br3nt:
HD2 is good enough for me ;)

no but seriously, tried doing some (very little) research but came up with nothing

HP TouchSmart-like cursor

Has anyone see/used an HP TouchSmart computer? the touchscreen cursor (a white cursor dot appears when the screen is touched) and a ripple appears when a button is clicked... that is exactly what I'm hoping to find for windows mobile. Any ideas anyone?
[Hero CDMA General] macvalentine:
What would be the safest max i can set the freq.?
[Hero CDMA General] VoLoDaR1:
i have mine running at max all the time works great
[Hero CDMA General] macvalentine:
i have mine at min -528 max -528 when the screen is on

when screen is off i got it at min - 128 max - 245

thing is i found that i can make the min even lower and the max up to 998

i wanna know the highest i can set it to so i can get full performance
[Hero CDMA General] VoLoDaR1:
im not too sure about that one but i would love to run mine at 998 lol
[Hero CDMA General] 702DROID:
so overclocking works now that we have the kernal then ?? cuase it wouldnt work without the kernal before right ?
[Hero CDMA General] wtphoto:
I would like to know how you did this as well
[Hero CDMA General] macvalentine:
im not sure if im doin it correctly

but i was just goin through the settings on overclock widget and went to advanced settings and went to "click here to define" and it has all frequencies from 19200 - 998400 you just gotta check them in order to use them
[Hero CDMA General] abcdfv:
Yeah, with our pre-source kernel, overclocking is not possibly because dynamic clocking is enabled in the kernel, so it automatically adjusts the clockrate.
[Hero CDMA General] watzone69:
So basically the Overclocking Widget is useless until we get a ROM with the new kernel source? Oh well, won't be long.:D
[Nexus One General] zkgbz:
I thought this was fixed in 2.1 but it looks its still an issue. Let me know if I am missing something.

Is it ture the the MT3G Fender has a new music .apk and if so can some one post it up...?
[myTouch 3G, Magic Apps and Games] DaemonAshra:
I have the Fender Mytouch coming in the mail. its the first android device i'll have ever used so i dont know how to extract files from it. if its anything like WinMo, im sure i can figure it out, but in case i can't it would be great if someone to give me a quick tutorial.

I want to get everything i can off this new phone and get it up here.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Apps and Games] bonesy:
It's nothing like winmo,I had a touch hd and when I changed to magic I bricked it cos I thought it was like win mo. Android will let u flash the wrong thing thus bricking.

Read up like mad and make sure you quadruple check everything! But you will love android!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Apps and Games] Azuske:
I downloaded it from one of the devs on twitter... it wont install on any rom i have tried though so it seems useless

i wasnt able to firgure out how to do it. if it means anything, though, i dont even use the default music app. its a little slow and kinda bland looking. meridian is better.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tommeke4:
hey guys,

im running the latest cmod build (4.2.13),all my apps are on my partitioned sd card and everything is doing what it is supposed to be doing.

except after a while my phone slows down so much that im not capable of doing anything regular anymore. i found out my internal memory gets filled up after a while (2 weeks?).

currently my internal memory only has 28mb of space left. Also when i reboot the phone the internal memory is still around the same. how is this possible? shouldnt it be like 90mb's of free space..?

what is filling my internal memory so much it slows down my phone like not being capable of using it in an normal matter.

i dont know where its comming from so i dont know how to fix it!

best regards
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lbcoder:
Well the first step would be to actually go in and check what files are being created, where, and what their sizes are.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tommeke4:
and how is that possible? the files are being created in the internal memory, not on the sd card.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] whateveryouwant:
Same problem

I have the same issue! Need help!
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AndDiSa:
Try to clean all caches (browser, news, ...) . Application caches fill up often internal memory.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bryant_16:
perhaps you can get CacheMate application for this purpose.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sakumaxp:
i had the same problem and yes, it was the data/cache of my apps that was taking up all my interna memory

I've tried two ROMs and both took at least three minutes to load the music tab.I have filed about half of my 16gb memory card with music and when i click the music tab the screen becomes unresponsivefor a few minutes and then any screen presses are carried out after the album artwork has loaded. does anyone else face this lag with the music tab? and how can I fix it? this is extremely annoying as it freezes the phone!
[HD2 General] lee1980:
have u used the sync or disc mode to load the music?
[HD2 General] jordzabest:
I used the disk mode. is this the problem? I have been unable to sync my device using active sync because when I connect it,I get a message saying that outlook isn't the default email client or something and then the device charges but is nowhere to be seen on my computer.thanks for the quick reply btw

yep ! Same here ... a real pain. But I've found no solution yet ...
[HD2 General] lee1980:
I've ca. 4GB music on my card and all is fast and responsive. Stock 1.48 GER.

It could have several reasons be that you have faulty mp3 or and faulty card.

On the other side its always better to sync music via Windows Media Player rather than doing it via copy/paste.

I would go for a format. and then try to make active sync working because sooner or later you will need it. If you can't do it right now I would try to copy the stuff folder by folder by folder. Before doing this i would check wheter all the files are valid. There are several threads here describing how to check this. Mp3Val is a good adress to begin with. Just download and run it over all mp3 files: http://mp3val.sourceforge.net/

In addition I would also have a look here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=5220474#post5220474 and check for those hints...

Cheers,

LEE
[HD2 General] jordzabest:
thanks

thank you! I connected my hd2 to a different laptop where outlook allowed me to use the active sync connection and I resynced using windows media player. the music tab works a treat now!

I'm trying to create a efficient game loop on .NET Compact Framework.

The base of the game is the game loop. It has been very long time since I last time was doing any games related development and first time doing it on CF.

I thought I'd port my old Managed DirectX game loop to Compact Framework but that seems to be a no go as the Application.Idle event is not there.

Has anyone experimented with CF game loops?
[Touch HD General] zyonuf79:
I have done some extensive searching both within these forums and the general internet. The only really helpful item I found was a youtube video showing some dude syncing zune pass subscription songs with his Touch HD. Unfortunately, I am not able to sync my zune pass songs. Would running a cooked ROM prevent this or should I be looking at something else?

As an aside, thank to all that contribute to this forum. It has been a great reference and it is great to see an enthusiast level community working to make WinMo better.

EDIT: Alright, also let me ask: who here uses their phone with Zune Pass? Please post your ROM version here or PM me. Thanks!

[HD2 General] Monty Burns:
Ok .... so, the fact that we know HTC pay attention to people gripes, comments and compliments on these forums.... if that had been a "we love HTC thread" would that have been closed?

I agree being rude and obnoxious are very good reasons but ... why not censor the very few posts related to it. Why close the general dissastifaction with what appears to be a typical HTC release. Without a place to talk about the general failure of HTC, how can the majority of people learn? How can those prospective customers be aware of the challenges they need to overcome to turn a rubbish device (out of the factory) into a great device (after XDA and chefs)?

And it appears all you have to do is complain about a thread, not be justified in your complaint.

The one thing i've always used in years is the xda forums and some of that i haven't even owned a HTC device. Like it or not, most people here have invested a lot of hard earned cash (or will over the next 18/24 months) and that will naturaly attract an emotional value - hence some anger when something like this doesn't work. The fact there was so much feeling in that thread should indicate the level of "emotion" about it and the incensed feeling they have about the amount people feel they have spent, money and time, on a device they are so unhappy about. Maybe if you guys created a "vent here thread" you might get to allow people to rant AND get usefull threads - heck, even HTC might read the "vent here thread!" and take note?

I'm so worried after reading todays threads in particular, about ordering mine earlier today but sadly nothing else that supports FULL exchange meets my requirements. I know my consumer rights and will use them to the full should I need to but I hope not it does have so many great points.
[HD2 General] wacky.banana:
If you have doubts about this device then don't buy it. You will be severely disappointed. If you have not taken time out to test drive one before putting your order in then, with respect, more fool you.

Finally, moderators on here bend over backwards NOT to close threads or be seen as censoring debate. However we have to keep a balance and if, in our judgment, a thread is getting out of hand or no longer has any value nor serve any useful purpose then it will be closed.

All the best,

WB
[HD2 General] Archer:
My opinion.

Here's an example of 2 threads.

This forum is not about defending or slating any particular device. It is meant for users to get together and talk about ways to make the experience better. This forum is not responsible for the fact that some hardware that comes out of some factory and gets some software installed on it is not 100% perfect!

Now for 1 moment, can we please put aside arguments regarding the device and talk about the forum? Which of the above 2 threads is the most constructive?

Thank you.
[HD2 General] jakem:
More to the point, what is the point of leaving the first example open? At the very least there should be a dedicated section for those unhelpful posts (as [★] suggested yesterday) but I think they should just be closed as they're so worthless.
[HD2 General] Monty Burns:
Do you work for a newspaper?

Both comments are usefull. Just because you don't see the use in both doesn't mean they are not usefull. Does that mean 10% of men don't like brand x of condoms so they should be ignored of Fred Smiths Condom appreciation website?

(sorry thats a really poor example but its 2am here in SA and i've been on the beer and Eve-online and films for a few hours ;) )

Very fair play to you for putting forward an argument (non abusive as I would hope) and maybe catch up tomorrow.:)
[HD2 General] wacky.banana:
Monty,

You are a Londoner eh? I should have known. You lot are nothing but trouble makers! :)

First off sorry about the quotes within quotes; didn't realise it stopped you from quoting back. Now that I do... :)

OK, lots in your post that I could come back on in detail but I won't because I'm the sort of chap that likes going forwards, not looking back in self pity or whatever.

The one thing that you have suggested, and you are not the first, is that we think on somewhere where people can let off steam WITHOUT cluttering up the forums. As you know there is some work going on as to how best we can restructure the place to make it better. Can I ask you to be a little patient while all this gets worked through.

In the meantime, think on the following:

- Help us to support people who need and want help and please be robust about those that don't but just fancy a moan and upsetting people on here without ever really wanting to seek help or to help themselves (the word Troll comes to mind).

- If you look at the Development & Hacking forums you will see that Development is stronger than ever and does not change what this place is all about. The work of the chefs is recognised and appreciated, and you can argue that is also development so 2-0 there. :)

- Lets all try to be a little adult, constructive and get along a little. I can tell you that, from a Mods perspective, we really want to be doing other things to make people's lives on here better rather than spending time closing threads down because people just can't have a little respect for each other. I often wonder whether anyone ever reads the forum rules. :(

Finally thank you for keeping on the straight and narrow re this thread and not going off the rails and getting it closed. :)

[HD2 General] Archer:
I totally agree mate (hence the support in said thread raised by [★] yesterday.)

I find this site a ridiculously valuable source of information when I need help with my phone, and I find it disheartening to have to wade through complaint after complaint just in order to get to constructive discussions.

If I wanted to live in troll city, I'd pack all my stuff into boxes; call a removals company; do some browsing of estate agents and property letting agents; check the reputation of the areas I was interested in and then guess what.... MOVE TO TROLL CITY!

I'm a placid guy generally, but some posts really make me struggle to just not tell the OP where to go.

+9999999 recurring to real constructive users of this site.

If 10% of men don't like brand x of condoms then they should definitely speak their mind. They would be wrong though to go to a forum that supports uses of brand x condoms and slate them. A support forum is for support.
[HD2 General] Monty Burns:
OK first, no idea who Martin is. :) (Its Monty spelt the wrong way - doh) :)

Second, guys sounds like we might have a good conversation on the values of "to HTC or not HTC" although I might be on the wrong side, despite just spending a bucket load of fivers on a HT2:D.

Please, keep it clean and (well funny if you can't) but not personaly insulting. Everyone on a keyboard is a human being!

Be safe, have fun!
[HD2 General] Archer:
I agree with that totally, but I do think this thread should be moved to a general area. Let's face it, it's hardly HD2 specific now is it!

It would be nice to see everyone's thoughts on this, rather than just the ones with The God Phone. (Just kidding - that was meant to incite trouble ;))
[HD2 General] MrMagicMushroom:
To be fair, those "I hate this phone" ranting type threads really do spiral into a hate fest or at least the few I've seen. If a topic is interesting and you comment on it, and go back later to see how it develops when all that is left is just insults, it has no use to most if not all.
[HD2 General] Monty Burns:
Argh! I'm not a god!!! (although I think I am, with my size 9 shoes... bow down before me!:D)

Seriously, maybe a good idea. I guess in an odd way this may complement (orb3000s?) the other thread vote about should it be HTC or not site? We don't know you server statistics of course but, we can hope that we can get to the stage where we can give our opinion on HTC honestly..... ( i wanted to deleted that and not type it as its not fair, i think we can, mostly ).

In my view its like a really cool manopoly. The games fun to play for almost all of us (i may/may not include myself in that after 2 years HTC abscense on next Friday) but for some it really sucks cos they keep losing.

I would think that moving it to an adult discussion of the real benefits as us users see if you become "open" but, we have no idea of the server costs... only you guys do. :)

(you do of course know that pressure will mount and mount and mount with regards to non-HTC phones. Your not silly :-) Samsung, LG, Acer.... to name but a few know that the serious money is in smart phones in the next few years, not feature. In Slough o2 test 150-200 meg 4g phones a couple of weeks ago )
[HD2 General] omneity:
From what I understand, this is a developers forum. i.e. look to the potential rather than to the faults as is.

There are far too many distracting threads along the lines of "the virtual keyboard is killing me", "my wife left me because of the battery life", "the pink camera issue made me kill my neighbour". These type of threads may have valid points but they are all a bit melodramatic and really don't serve the purpose of the forum very well as they fan the flames of discontent rather that rise to the can-fix mindset. Despite what the trolls (for want of a better word) might like to say, this isn't a fanboi site, it's for those who realise a problem and want to solve it, simply just improve things, or just want to tweak things just because they can! I'm sure most of us here are all too aware of the shortcomings of Windows mobile software, just as we recognise the potential & strengths of this platform.

Speaking as a self-confessed technophile I will admit to spending an not inconsiderable amount of hard-earned money on utter crap i.e. gadgets that promised so much, yet delivered so little or were simply just badly executed. The HD2 is non of these, it's a stunning piece of design & engineering. It's not perfect, for example: the sharp edges of the camera lens annoy me a little, but it doesn't induce a desire in me to vent my spleen to the world.

I'm optimistic, I hope to survive longer than my HD2 and maybe via this forum HTC will hear my concern for this non-life threatening design flaw and engineer a more ergonomic lens cover for the next mobile phone I get. If they don't, it will undoubtedly leave a microscopic void in my life, but I'm strong enough to move on and no doubt the HTC designers will burn in hell for their tardiness. ;)

xda-developers is what is says and is a great community that helps us get the best from these intriguing phones, so please diss the efforts of those who contribute and recognise that enthusiasm is a far better fertilizer for technology than manure.

Besides that, looking at my HD2 I've just noticed that it's going to be wet & windy at "My Location" tomorrow. That's fifty miles away and I'm not even going there, so it's a win for me! :D
