Is it a .cab file?

Does anyone know whether it is a .cab file that runs on top of WM 6.5 or 6.5.X, or does it run on top of or with HTC Sense? Just came from the site and it says that the UI only consumes about 5mb of Ram...this is amazing considering the effects that I see...would've guessed somewhere around 10-15MB at the least. Will wait to try...anyway, our HD2's with the 576MB patch can handle it...

So, I just made a donation...so hopefully I get to test this new radically enhanced WM UI... :):););)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Straynart:
Without this patch [tricky one ?], it can handle it.

This really looks like someone wanna get some donation and then he is leaving without a trace. I`d really loved the work of schaps and his programs and Roms for a few devices, but I don`t know if this is the same person like the one who is posting these "new" news.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] pablo11:
This kind of comment is why he left xda. I am testing this too and I haven't donated for over 18 months. When I did it was not because he asked for it - it was because he was making great roms for my Hermes! This guy does amazing work and I for one am glad to be involved in it.:rolleyes:
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] black14987:
I followed his forum and I followed the posts of the ppl who donated much and he hasen`t replied to anoyone.

For me it looks like he is showing some new screens only to get some donations and then hes not ssen for a long time.

I hope I am wrong, but I don`t think that this is still schaps.

thanx
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] kaospiloten:
I am also a beta tester. I really like TX, it runs smooth on my HD2 with stock 1.66 rom. Schaps is offering great suport and we just got a revised version now.

I like how we can make our own custom panels(meny pages) and add any wigdet, apps and other stuff. The animated backgrounds works great to. TX is now running on top of WM 6/Sense. I donated 10€ and its worth it. :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] snowblind2142:
I agree! Not that I'm particularly interested in using it myself, I have read a few Irate posts in the "post your today screen Here!" Thread..

I believe they where speculating it had been photoshoped due to no reply..

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] ark2020:
usefulness

Is this layout really useful. It seems a little useless to me. Too many menus and widgets which provide data which can already be accessed quickly from HTC's Sense UI.

I don't think widgets work well on mobile devices. But I do like the animations and smoothness of the UI and the palm pre style switching between running apps.

All in all - good but not great.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] remaht1:
i tried it

i tried the beta release ,and mmmm...... i dont like so much ,many problems and bugs ,and its not very very smooth ,it increase the battery consumption ,and needs many memory !!!!if someone likes to try it pm me
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] HackMimic:
I know he is posting more screenshots for people to see more of the UI. with the release of the screenshots he is giving info out on each screenshot so everyone can have a better understanding of what his app has to offer. its not out yet as he is the only developer of this project and does not have a team assisting him which takes time. So all donators will get more updates than the rest for supporting his project. I believe the donators will see more more updated builds till he gets everything worked out then the non donators can play if he still releases it for everyone. Why things are this way as he would be swamped by to many emails to concentrate on the project. I have talked with him an he gets several hundred emails asking to test the app, what minimum donations are and bug reports. It is crazy having to deal with all of that and program and debug the app. with all that going on TX is something to really admire and how down to earth the dev is. to all those who complain how long its taking put yourself in his shoes and you will have such a great gratitude that his is taking the time to produce this for the community.

PS: Beta testers who flash roms all the time. did you use the bootloader app he included that boots you into bootloader. so so nice.:D

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] anrabi4:
Yep, same here as well... Bah, I was soooooo much hoping that he is uploading a new test version for us to play with... :P
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] snowblind2142:
Your all asking in the wrong place. You need to head over here and check his official site for updates.

As for you buddy (@remaht), you really shouldn't be sharing his work, the system is in place for a reason. If he gets wind of it you wont get any further updates even if you don't like the current version, you wont get to test any further. No different to warez.

I'm not saying this to taddle, just to point it out to other "less educated" members.

soon enaugh windows 6.5 will be replaced with windows 7 and this user interface becomes obsolete...so not sure why the developer doesn't just give up on this...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] tictac0566:
This is your personal opinion, isn´t it?

MS confirmed that WM 6.5 will continue - and when I see all the great enhancements incl. Manila and all Manila mods and tweaks, I think it will live for quite some time.

WP7 is a whole different story... with limits like iPhone OS - means no more openness. Everything closed. A different customer.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] jdep1:
are u seriouse? julien schapman is one of the best developers that ever came across xda please respect his work. i tested the UI and it still needs work but im sure many will love it once its compleated & by the way its not the end of 6.5 once wp7 comes out
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] kenkiller:
It's precisely for that same reason that development for this is interesting.

Once WP7 is released, WM6.5 will be partially dead and stopped in it's tracks. UI overlays like this gives the thousands of WM6.5 devices out there a second wind.

Of course, unless you like to go for the latest and newest (and buggiest), then no one is gonna stop you from going the WP7 way. :D

[HD2 General] Shasarak:
Are there any ways to enable or simulate "push" email on POP or IMAP accounts?

I need to get frequent updates from my ISP email box. I currently have my HD2 set to poll for new mail every 5 minutes, but this simply murders the battery: it burns 4 or 5% per hour even in stand-by, let alone when I'm actually using it. I've heard that push email is actually more economical than polling every 5 minutes (as the "heartbeat" signals are sent out more rarely and contain less data). Obviously one can enable push email when talking to an Exchange server or to hotmail, but by default there's no way to do it when communicating with a POP or IMAP server. Is there any way to achieve or simulate email push from one of those?

One possibility that I have heard of but know virtually nothing about is a thing called "IMAP Idle" - if anyone wishes to educate me on how it works and how it can be accessed under Windows Mobile, and whether it can actually help, here, then I'm all ears! But any suggestion is welcome.
[HD2 General] thenewguy1979:
There are really no push email for Windows Mobile. Only for Iphone.
[HD2 General] xdadevelopersuser69:
I'm looking for the same thing.

I found this other thread here which can be what you are looking for.. (oh, I can't post links as I'm new).

Search for the thread called: SchedHandler 1.74 / Scheduler for PUSH EMAIL+Polling/execute/switch/etc

In the windows mobile apps / games subforum.
[HD2 General] RSJ:
Use Gmail with the IMAP service and Activesync - this seems to work reasonably effectively as a push email service.

push email is built right in. its very reliable but you have to use your MSN, live.com, or hotmail account though
[HD2 General] Shasarak:
The built-in Windows Live application does push email very nicely for hotmail - no download needed. But I was asking about POP or IMAP email accounts.
[HD2 General] Tomo1340:
I forward all my POP accounts to gmail and pick them up as they are pushed over ActiveSync. I've tested it by emailing me and my wifes blackberry and its only marginally slower.
[HD2 General] pnharrison:
I also tried this; and it worked fine for push email part. However, did you solve the problem of any replies you send coming from the gmail account? Despite trying various "reply from" settings within gmail I couldn't get it to reply as if from the original account.
[HD2 General] Tomo1340:
There is apparently a way to make gmail send through another account, I can't get it to work.
[HD2 General] kilrah:
Same here, I just took the plunge and configured my gmail account for push, and fetching from my 3 usual POP3s. It seems to work pretty well, but the reply email address is indeed always the gmail one even if I set the address to be "address the message was sent to", or even just set another address as default.

Gmail can be a bit slow as well, it seems it checks the POP3 about every 5 mins. Push can take from 30 seconds to 10 minutes. When replying, the outgoing mail appears in the desktop inbox right after the mail was sent from the device, but there can be a delay until it's actually sent out, I tried twice, and once it took 20 mins and the other 2 mins only.

So you'd better not be too stressed, but it definitely beats having to check manually, sometimes 10 times in a row, times 3 accounts, for nothing as there's no new mail...
[HD2 General] Spike15:
Hosted Exchange is very affordable and solves all the problems people have with technologies like IMAP4 and POP3, which really are out-dated, and, in the case of IMAP4, not consistently implemented.
[HD2 General] LordLugard:
Yes there is, and is provided by a company called Seven, for free. http://www.seven.com/ . Give it a try.

I use it on my Treo Pro and it works fine. Sign up for a Seven account, download the cab file and configure your POP or IMAP accounts.

**NOTE**

If you're using GMAIL (which is IMAP), Google provides free push for GMAIL via Exchange Activesync (Google Sync, you get push GMAIL, contacts, calendar). Go here http://www.google.com/mobile/sync/
[HD2 General] kilrah:
OK, when I logged in to gmail this morning I could see that it was now polling my POP3 only every hour or so. It says it decides the polling interval on how often you get messages, and that it's not possible to define one manually. So that can lead to long delays.

So instead of having gmail poll my POP3, I've now set my server to forward everything to gmail. It's a lot better now, I get the mail on my phone within 5 mins max.
[HD2 General] Starfury:
It seems a lot of people don't understand what "Push email" actually is...
[HD2 General] Tomo1340:
Can you expand your point?

As far as I am aware Push Email is when the MDA pushes the mail to the MUA at the point of the mail arriving on the MDA as opposed to the MUA polling the MDA for new mail at a predetermined time.
[HD2 General] Starfury:
Without going into all your TLA's, Push email is effectively the server saying I have an email for this client and pushing it to the device telling the device, "heh I got an email for you, catch!" like the way Blackberry works.

The majority of people on this thread keep referring to POP3/IMAP4 which is Pull email as the mail program goes to the server (be it every 30 seconds or every hour) and asks "have you got any mail for me please?" to which the server replies yes or no...

The OP from what I saw wanted to know if any Push Email solutions existed, eg. Blackberry style and the majority of replies were to do with Pull Email solutions, eg. POP3/IMAP4, so I just made the comment I did.

Heh ho and all that malarky... :cool:

Edit: on re-reading (I am at work so may have skimmed it a bit quickly) maybe my original comment wasn't relevant to the post. Ah well :)
[HD2 General] Shasarak:
I think we understand the distinction between pull and push just fine, thanks. :rolleyes:

My question was whether there is a way to make an email account based on POP or IMAP behave as if it were push-based. Use of IMAP IDLE should achieve this (if I understand it correctly - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IMAP_IDLE). I was also inviting other suggestions.
[HD2 General] Tomo1340:
to reiterate my earlier point google mail does free exchange connection to their POP/IMAP service, you can realtime sync mail, contacts and calendar data, its pushnot pull.
[HD2 General] Shasarak:
My apologies for not thanking all contributors to this thread indvidually! :) I've been a bit too busy to try out most of this stuff over the past few days. I'll get around to it eventually....
[HD2 General] kilrah:
We know what push email is... but most of us have common POP3/IMAP accounts for our usual e-mail addresses, with no push support. So in order to have push, we need a way to transfer these to another service that does push email. And that part has to be done through POP3/IMAP...
[HD2 General] Tomo1340:
use pop forwarding to forward them to googlemail. that's what I do.
[HD2 General] kilrah:
Yup, that's what I said I've done :)

I've spent the past 2.5 hours searching for an answer to this and have come up dry. I've recently upgraded my MT3G to a 2.1 Android ROM. I notice that the auto-suggest constantly tries to give priority to names it finds in my contacts. So, when I try to type a simple work like "or" it will default to "Orwell" in my contacts. Hopefully this makes sense.

Is there a way to remove my contacts from the dictionary or otherwise prevent this from happening?

Thanks,

[XPERIA X1 General] gbajzelj:
My X1 didnt work as it should after around 6 months.

-the display got black when I slided the keyboard out,

-headphones jack did sometimes shov the headphones simbol on the top bar of the screen even when the headphones wasnt in the jack,

-in the center of display i had a grey spot. It was very visible if i turned on the camera and covered the elns with my finger. It might be from stylus or somethin. it made look X1 lcd look cheap and of bad quality,

-the on the keyboard if i pressed M or N key once it wrote MMM or NNN (multiple characters for only one press)

-and the last thing is that when i was having a conversation sometimes didnt hear anything. i had to slide open the phone and the close it and sometimes it healped but if it didnt I had to use the speaker. and it looks bad when you are using 500€ phone to have to use the speaker for all conversations.

then on 1.12.2009 I personaly got my X1 in the shop for repairs. I called afther 3 weeks... the phone was still not repired, so i call them in the beginning of January. the phone was not finished. I was starting to count down the days.

Dont know abouth other countries but in Slovenia (its next ot Italy) the law says that if a device is in repairs for more then 45 days (and that caunts in hollydays and weekends to:) ) you are entitled to equal NEW device. and then until february 2010 they were telling me that they are getting me a new X1. but last week they tell me that NEW X1s are hard or almost impossible to get. so the SE is getting me new XPERIA X2 instead:). thats all I know for now. I still think that X1 was a better phone (it had personality that X2 has not) at the beginning of next week ill know more. today the man from the shop said that its possible to have it on tuesday or wednesday next week.

if nothing else i got from phone that was farly old and didnt work properly (dont know if id get 200€ for it) to a totaly new X2 (it came outh this january,it must be worth around 500€). Ill let you know if/when i get it and let you know how it handles.

is it possible for X2 to ROM it with some costom ROMS for X1?it has the same buttons, same resolution, same hardware... it would be nice to have cristians ROM or touchIT ROM on X2.

Sorry about bad spelling.
[XPERIA X1 General] oTToToTenTanz:
No. There are no custom ROMs for the X2 yet. Have fun with that new phone. Im sure you will like it's. I don't know what my next device will be...
[XPERIA X1 General] gbajzelj:
Well i got my new X2 last week on friday. first of all i have to say that im somewhat of a clean phone freak softwarevise adn in that regard X2 is awfull. it just has too much stuff on it. how can there be after hard reset (did it ubouth 3-4 times just over the weekend) only 80MB free. there is 260 MB available but only 80 is free.when I deleted all the panels that i dont need there was 140MB free but then manel manager stopped working.

then i hardreset it. on X1 hardreset and costumization lasted around 10 minutes. for a hard reset on X2 you need half an hour before telephone is ready to use.

then i wander in panel manager whay some panels are able to be deleted in panel manager but moste are not. yes you can delete them in settings but in many cases it says the panel was not deleted completle, you want delet it from the list?

i wanted to have clasic SE panels (1 and 2) i instaled SEpanel 1 from this forum, and panel manager stopped working again. HARDRESET

When I turned on X1 there was abouth 30% of ram used and 60-70% was free.

on X2 most od the time its 50/50 but usualy if you open application or 2 there is less then 50% free. and that affects on performance.

best thing would be to have X1 software on the X2 device. Or atleast X1 panel manager on it.

At first i dint like its START menu. scrolling up and down when the scrolling in not fluid its no eyecandy. and its not totaly usefull. then i started to like it when i figured out i can edit this start honeycomb menu. i added map called WEB another map called PROGRAMS i put al the stuff in these maps only the SE Xperia 2 green icons and settings are on the front level... and start menu was instantly more user friendly (by the way in file manager there is map WINDOWS/STARTMENU/PROGRAMS there you can edit START menu).

But still I have faith in this device. if the experiance was little more fluid or the CPU was better this would be a great device. it has a nice camera (video recording is not so good but that i got used to with X1 and SE never had great vodeorecorder cameras anyway) and there are 2 firmware updates planned one for march (WM 6.5.2) and one in may (6.5.3, cant wait to have START, X and OK buttons on the lower side of the screen:D).

Final words

I was mad abouth X1 from the momet i looked at it on gsmarena (february 2008) and then almost half a year when it came out i has HAPPY to have it.

now I have X2 only a month after it came out and its just OK to have it. its not good its not bad its just ok.

we will see.
