:eek: looks amazing , I guess for xperia users, instead of turning the phone sideways to get the panel list we could just press the xperia button?

I'm a big fan of social network integration throughout the phone ui, do you have any plans to integrate them with the ui? facebook contact pictures, online photo albums, etc.

maybe its possible via plugin?
[General Topics] schaps:
Yes it would be a good idea to handle Xperia button.

Yes, social network integration is on the way (Facebook, Twitter, Windows Live). I'm open to any idea.

SIP support

SIP support is still weak on any device other than Nokia devices (N95,ESeries, n900), where on those devices you can any time for any contact choose the type of call you want to make ... voice call,Video call, internet call(which is sip) or even skype call in nokia n900.

but it will be a great feature to embed the support for sip in the TouchXperiance, am aware of the tool created by you schaps for sip configurations, but it's not giving the possibility and flexibility to choose between sip and GSM calls as Nokia, I know a lot of advanced mobile users switching to Nokia for this sip support... it will really kick tons of asses to have this feature.

check the youtube video titled as "VoIP on the Nokia N900" to clear what am talking about.
[General Topics] schaps:
The Windows logo is just an animation. I wanted to make some cool animation by randomly drawing icons which blow up the screen, then I remembered Windows Phone ads and I thought it would look nice to put an animated logo at the center of the screen.

As I said earlier, I had the opportunity to test on an old Diamond and it was surprisingly smooth, of course it's not as responsive as the 1GHz HD2 but I can't make miracles, it's smoother than TouchFLO 3D so it will not be a problem. I can tell you I'm not using the full power of the HD2, I defined a reasonable framerate for not impacting on battery life, but I could make animations even more complex and faster.
[General Topics] schaps:
My SIP tool does nothing more than configuring and activating SIP on Windows Mobile, but SIP feature must be included in the ROM (which is generally not the case). I remember that integrating SIP feature in ROMs was causing issues on some devices, I don't know if this issue has been solved and if it works on WM6.5. Otherwise I don't think I would be able to develop a SIP client it's very complex and requires knowledge that I don't have. All I could do is an integration with existing SIP clients (like Skype) if they offer some API.
[General Topics] schaps:
There may be a QVGA version (or similar resolution) if there is an important demand. Actually TouchXperience should work but it will not be usable because graphics are not adapted for lower resolutions.
[General Topics] schaps:
Thanks again guys, I'm happy to know that many of you prefer TouchXperience than Windows Phone 7. Before their announcement I worried about TouchXperience future on the long view, but as they will continue to release pro devices aside WP7 series, I could offer you an interesting alternative to their future UI. I hope many of you will follow me in this great project! :)
[General Topics] wbsoul:
it's a pity that we don't have real native support but maybe we can have an alternative like calling a sip client from touchXperiance and passing the called number to dial the number directly if we wish to make a sip call from the contacts.

Donation - Beta tester request

Hi Schaps,

I just made a donation - ID:30601706VT678441M Please count me in for the early beta testing.

I also prefer this over WP7.

Thanks
[General Topics] schaps:
Thank you very much for your contributions, that's encouraging and it help me to keep awake during those long nights! ;)

Well, I did not expect so many donators, now the early beta is not going to be so private anymore... But that's not bad if I can get various relevant feedback.

Some of you made interesting suggestions, don't hesitate to share your wishes for future versions of TouchXperience, I take notes then I will make a priority list of the features I will add later.
[General Topics] Timothye:
SO when can we expect the beta ?

and how would you like ot receive feedback , thru email , pm or on this thread ?

looking forward to testing .

thanks again for your contribution to the community

+1 Vote for qvga version. Common guys vote more...

And schaps plz do care about 2g drivers instead of usage of 3d drivers you can use animation like spb mobile shell for qvga devices (with no 3d drivers) plz:D
[General Topics] [★]:
Cant wait for the release, Im very excited for you :D
[General Topics] guap:
should be very simple, in every xperia rom we can handle it with:

HKLM\Software\SonyEricsson\PanelManager\ApplicationName

Value="*.exe"

it only works with exe (no .lnk) and it's an absolute path. I.E. to point to \windows\myexe.exe I have to change it to:

HKLM\Software\SonyEricsson\PanelManager\ApplicationName

Value="\..\Windows\myexe.exe"

hope it helps;) thank you for your great project, can't wait to try

Home Automation

I was incredibly happy to see Home Automation as an option! Looks great. For quite some time I'm searching for such a tool for my WM device. I use X10 at home. My wife has an iPhone and a good X10 app was easy to find, but not for my HTC Touch Pro.

How will Home Automation work with TouchXperience? Do I need a server with a specific application? Is there something mean and lean on the market so I don't have to have my pc/server on all day to use this feature?
[General Topics] dark_sith:
awesome ... M$ should just implement this. I wouldn't need to switch ...
[General Topics] amnagheall:
Awesome!!!!! :D Question?? can this run in HTC Touch HD purely like the one in the video?? and, is it a launcher only, like SPB shell?? THANKS!
[General Topics] schaps:
I suppose, as it was running smoothly on an old Touch Diamond.

As you can see, it's much more than a launcher!
[General Topics] schaps:
Yes, home automation needs a server application, unfortunately I don't think there are other alternatives than a home server...
[General Topics] schaps:
Thanks for the tip, it will not be a problem to implement it!

You know the home of your UI? With the start menu in the middle and all the applications on the edge of the circle..

Did you make that? Because I saw an image of it on bbc.co.uk

I'm probably an idiot and didn't realise before. But I'm just wondering.

[General Topics] adversario71:
ther's no early beta yet?...this awesome UI got a toomuch long delay,don't u think guys?

i really respect this work..but..i will do a nice donation when a beta comes to this forum..not before.

why he don't release the one he shows on the video?

i hope something comes soon..

greets
[General Topics] dehell:
Delay?

I think that comment will not help to get a version earlier, nor to have a better one. My donation was for supporting the work that is done now, not to have an early "show"-version not worth for beta test.

Take the time you need, Shaps, so we have really something to test against.

(must admit, awaiting it ...)
[General Topics] ddavtian:
I don't think so. How much is "toomuch"? I'm not a developer but can appreciate how much hard work is needed for such UI.
[General Topics] schaps:
I know you are all awaiting it and I'm the first to be impatient to release this beta. I'm working day and night to finish in time, don't forget that I have a full-time job and the rest of my time I'm doing this extra work for free. I even had to take some days off for not being late with the project. I have no rest and I'm really exhausted, so telling that delay is too long doesn't help me at all...

What I've shown on videos are experimental builds, so it's definitely not for release. Even if the UI is not too buggy I still have a lot of work on system integration, which is a very delicate task, if system integration is not perfect the UI will behave unexpectedly for the half of you.

This beta is not only for showing you TouchXperience alive or for giving you a chance to play with it, but it is for beta testing purpose so it needs some preparation (debug code, diagnostic and bug reporting tools, online support,...).
[General Topics] KevinNash:
Good to see you back my french neighbour ;)

Can't wait for this dream coming true ! Good luck to you with this hard work.

I can also meet you in the " real " life, so you can have a beta tester with face to face feedback, I have 3 HTC phones : HD2, HD1 and Diamond 2.

Keep me informed please.
[General Topics] Dirk:
Looks amazing! I can't imagine the amount of hard work that goes into making something like this.

Thanks for all your efforts.
[General Topics] chizzwhizz:
jus to add onto this...the build that is being beta tested will most likely not be what we saw in the demo video as julien previously mentioned. i imagine it will be more of a functional UI so that us as beta testers can ensure that the core of the UI is working right. if the core parts are working perfectly then the fun, cool additions can be focused on. that is what beta testing is...if you want to be a beta tester just so you can be the first to have this on your phone then you are sadly mistaken on the purpose of a beta tester.

keep up the good work Julien
[General Topics] Badwolve1:
Schaps, you are producing a wonderful product (That personally, i'm excited about :)) you don't have to kill yourself to get this out on time, i am happy to wait for this, looks AWSOME!!! i wouldn't care if there was a month of delay, and anyone who is complaining about the delay should be ashamed, they should try making something as intergrated as this

I'm a web design student. If you need any kind of help, feel free to email me. I'd be particularly interested in writing technology tips and tutorials (like I already do on my own blog).

Also, you should put a theme on that blog. Start with something free and buy a unique one whenever you make money from it.

I am currently running the MLIGN 1.5 Sense UI ROM. The only thing that annoys me is the old 1.5 market. Is there anyway to get the new market onto a 1.5 ROM? Would really like to see it!

Thanks In Advance.

There is no fix/hack for this. Upgrade to an Eclair rom or just deal.

Now let this thread die.

[Nexus One General] AndyCr15:
I've done a little experimenting, made a spreadsheet and all, to see what makes a difference to the battery drainage. Here are my findings -

Live Wallpaper: YES

Connection: 3G

Taskiller Widget: YES

Battery Drain: 7.5% per hour

Live Wallpaper: YES

Connection: 3G

Taskiller Widget: NO

Battery Drain: 4.5% per hour

Live Wallpaper: NO

Connection: 3G

Taskiller Widget: NO

Battery Drain: 4.4% per hour

Live Wallpaper: YES

Connection: 2G

Taskiller Widget: NO

Battery Drain: 4.15% per hour

On average, using one of the 4.XX% scenarios, if it was left asleep for the hour it drained battery 2-3% per hour.

Heavily used for the hour, browsing the web on lunch drained battery 6-9% per hour.

Mind you, today has been relatively light use all day, Live WP, 3G and I've got 3.7% all day. At this rate, I would probably get 27 hours use. The battery does seem to get better after a weeks use, so don't judge it straight out of the box. I know some people said using 2G would save battery, I was surprised how little it did.

One thing I used to do on my Hero to save battery was turn of auto rotate. Tomorrow I might try that and see how it helps battery life.

Are there any other things you'd like me to test?
[Nexus One General] AndyCr15:
I don't believe so, no. I might try again next week with them off, just to check it wasn't the battery getting better that scewed results, but so far, they look to make no difference :)
[Nexus One General] xSiraris:
It seemed that the live wp drained my battery more when I used it, even when it wasn't on much. I may do another test to see.

I find that the battery lasts a little longer if you power the phone off before charging it. Today I've been streaming Last.fm, played about 20 minutes of Julelust in the bathroom ;) and did quite a bit of GTalk chatting, and my battery is at 85% after about 3 and a half hours.
[Nexus One General] AndyCr15:
I wonder if it depends which LWP you use? I was using the Live Earth Wallpaper...

Also, I might try underclocking to 600mhz for a day, to see what that saves.

For me, I'll probably use it with all the bells and whistles on, even if I only get 20 hours life, as long as I know I'll be home to charge it that night. If I know I'm out for a couple of days, I'd like to know what settings I can change to extend it up to maybe 40 hours hopefully.

I should also do a day where I turn of data sync, I think that makes a big difference. If you turn it off with the power widget, will it stop everything using data? E-mail, apps, everything? Or do I need to actually turn data off for that?
[Nexus One General] rossiscatch:
Very interesting. Which task killer widget did you test? Thanks.
[Nexus One General] AndyCr15:
I think it was the one from ES Task Manager. Now I've got Advance Task Manager and just place a link to the app rather than the widget. It's still only 2 presses to kill everything.

I have the paid version of TasKiller, which I used for a long time on my Hero, I should test that at somepoint too...
[Nexus One General] henihazbay:
nice topic.

Can you tell which Rom are you using?

Default?

Cyanogenmod?

Modaco?
[Nexus One General] peliROJO:
I don't think this is relevant unless he's running a stock ROM with no 3rd party apps installed. Also, if you believe the battery gets better after a week of use then why perform any tests until after that week has passed???

This testing is flawed in another way; inconsistent usage patterns.
[Nexus One General] henihazbay:
It surely is.

It changes many thing including if it's needed to kill an app to boost memory etc.
[Nexus One General] AndyCr15:
So leave the thread and don't be so negative.

Yes, Modaco's 1.5, some in Cyanogens. Why would an app in one ROM use more battery than it does in another? This testing was for me, why would I test in any ROM other than the one I use? I just thought others might benefit from what I found.

Why should no 3rd party apps be installed?!?! Some of these are what I want to test!

I did wait a week...

Of course there are inconsistent usage patterns. Even if you tried I bet you couldn't do exactly the same things every day at the same time with your phone.

This is not a scientific experiment, it's just my findings. I'm not claiming I can tell you how long your battery will last, as I said, I just wanted to know what things helped and what things hindered. Please have the good manners to not bothering to return. Thanks.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] rob_p:
Just a quick question, has anyone gotten the inbuilt "Internet Calling" WM SIP client working on the TP2?

I've been reading all of the threads that I can find on this site to do with SIP, VoIP etc... and trying to get the InternetCalling app working on my TP2. I'm currently running Sergio's Cell Pro V11 ROM, but I've also tried it on the NRG Phoenix ROMs.

It seems that no matter what VoIP setup cab I use to install the client and it's constituent parts, no matter what registry settings I alter, and no matter what SIP provider I try, it always ends up at "No Service" after "Searching".

I just wondered if anyone had experience of getting it to work, either over Wifi, or over 3G?

I've also investigated whether the problem is that Vodafone UK block SIP traffic on their network, but I've not come across anything to say if they do conclusively one way or another?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] ctla20:
I am getting the same problem, I think I am not using the right SIP server. On one of the tutorials it tells me to use my SIP server. I am with Telus but I don't know what the sip server is.

Same here. I could not get internal SIP working.
