Swearing won't get you help...

Go to the "8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development " section and look, and yes this may be time consuming but there is a description by the chef for their rom. Read...

Manilla 3d WON'T work on the Hermes so you're stuck with 2d.

anyone know of a brightness widget that works with the eris? Everything I have tried just goes bright, then back to preset level

thanks
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] refthemc:
That I know of no, sorry, I heard that the problem will be fixed in 2.1 or if we get root I'm sure we can figure out how to disable the sensor somehow...
[Droid Eris Themes and Apps] joey3002:
thanks for the heads up. I will be patient.
[Nexus One General] esincho:
Before purchasing my N1, I saw a video of a Zeemote playing nice with Android promising full support 2 come. I've been hunting around and can't find any progress on this. I have my Zeemote working great with my TP2, thanks 2 a program I bought with a modified version 2 support WM. I searched the same site and only found Bluetooth keyboard support for Android. http://www.mymobilegear.com. Anybody heard anything?
[Nexus One General] MiamiKnight:
Hi .. I just got a zeemote controller too but I only have 2 windows mobile devices. I've been looking for drivers desperately but havent found them yet. Can you please provide a link to the page where you purchased the wm modified drivers pls? I really want to pair my zeemote to my pocket pcs but havent been able to do so yet (no drivers). Pls help me :(
[Nexus One General] Caprius:
It is currently still in beta, but the developer is planning to release it to the market very soon. Both the zeemote and the bgp100 gamepads will work with it. I am a beta tester and can confirm that these bluetooth gamepads do in fact work with this software. The name for the beta software is "Gamepro" but not sure if he is planning to call it something else on the market. The website is correct, mymobilegear.com, look in "GamePad Driver Support Forums"
[Nexus One General] MiamiKnight:
downloaded the drivers, they work great!

Thx for the info, I found the drivers that you mentioned (gamepro) and they work like a charm with the zeemote!! I will definitely purchase the full version of the drivers, since the beta keeps popping a reminder msg. Gaming on my HD2 just got a little bit more serious.. lol. Touchscreen is great but with the zeemote I can do a bit more hardcore gaming that i wasnt able to before (for ex in Megaman x (snes using morphgear) running and jumping while charging the laser..!)
[Touch HD General] ChopShop:
Hey all. I just picked up my 3rd, yes 3rd Touch HD, im a bit rough on them, but i got this one second hand and it was most likely purchased in HKG.

It has updated manila to 2.5 as it might be upto 18 months old.

Anyway, i cant seen to "unlock" the local time zone from hkg, I live in new zealand. Can someone hook me up? if its a registry keyy ill need step by step instructions sorry.

Cheers
[Touch HD General] ChopShop:
Sorry just read the post about not starting new threads.

However i did search a couple times and couldn't find the solution.
[Touch HD General] ChopShop:
Someone point me in the right direction.

The phone is unlocked as in it works here in newzealand and i can change the ttime to my location, but all my texts come through dated and timed as if i recieved them in hkg.

Do i need to install a newzealand ROM?

Im also finding bugs with it as in predictive text wont learn new words, is this a rom issue? i've RTFW but im just not sure what course of action i should take.
[Touch HD General] Svegetto:
Have you tried Start>Settings>Clocks & Alarms? That's usually how'd you'd change it. You can always try and do a hard reset since during initial boot it asks the user for the time zone. If all fails, you can flash a different ROM
[Touch HD General] ChopShop:
No, its 'greyed out' as in i cant change it, all my texts are coming through with strange times on them.

Will a hard reset loose my current ROM?
[Touch HD General] Xerx3s:
BUMP:

I just installed dutty's febuari blackstone rom and have the same issue. It is never asked and and I can't find any option to change it. Normally I wouldn't mind but it is causing some problems for my synchronisation settings.

Does anyone know how to change it?

:(
[Windows Phone 7 General] bukwit:
Great writeup...it's obvious that in order to attain mass market share MS needs to develop an interface that just works straight out of the box. It has to work for all ages which is something Apple have done with the iPhone..simple and attractive with a huge incentive to keep ones interest high through their ever growing appstore. If they can get it right first time and with the enthusiasm from application developers they may well be onto a winner but the win may not come immediately.However, they need to make every step count along the way and the longer they take the bigger the gap to the lead.

I also believe MS may leave at least one door unlocked to get their OS to do what powerusers expect from it.

From what I've seen of the WP7 interface so far it looks pretty neat and I'm definately looking forward to it hopefully landing on my HD2 soon.
[Windows Phone 7 General] aussiebum:
Uh... link's dead.
[Windows Phone 7 General] RustyGrom:
Apparently pocketnow is in the process of moving to a new server and that article is on the new server. I can't see it either.

Microsoft is MASSIVELY different than Palm. In size, skills, and especially developer support and tools.

WebOS is a great OS but like you said, it's main failure is developer support. First, it's partially their fault due to the architecture. Until recently, you couldn't really write "native" apps using their SDK (people hacked it long ago but that's another story). Basically you were limited to little more than a web page with increased access to the phone. Meh. Also, WebOS has very minimal market penetration. Until recently it was only available on the US's #3 carrier and only later on select carriers abroad. Why develop software for a device that hardly anyone has? Apple was (as they always seem to do) able to drum up a large amout of support with very little reason to show for it. Microsoft will have a much more compelling story than Apple did with it's iPhone but will lack Apple's "it" factor (Jobs' RDF).

Palm is tiny. They don't have the money and patience like MS does to sustain a long, battle for the hearts and minds of phone users everywhere. Just look at what MS did with the Xbox. They didn't turn a profit on that unit until well into the Xbox 360. But did MS quit after the original Xbox was a failure? No, they tried harder. And now look.

Palm doesn't have the devloper tools. Yea, they can write plugins for Eclipse but they lack the ability to write extensive APIs and integrate them into Visual Studio. Do not underestimate the power of .net (figuratively and literally). Silverlight is fantastic as is XNA. If I can make a 'game' (although it sucked lol) anyone can.

No guts no glory. Microsoft is playing for keeps. I have no doubt that WP7 or WP8 will be successful.

FYI, Windows 7 is really Windows 6.1. And just like Longhorn, Photon was likely destined to be a failure. Vista was a necessary step to get to 7. The hatred for Vista is largely unfounded and 7 really is just Vista with the complaints fixed and a bit more modern UI.

We still don't know the story on app compat. It's running WinCE and it will support silverlight (.net) so there's little reason, other than wanting a complete clean break, that most old apps won't work. WinCE uses cab installs just like WM (because it is CE). I can write one app and deploy it to a bare WinCE 6.0 system or to WM6.5 (CE5). Maybe they will allow old stuff, maybe they won't. We won't know til next month. They very well may not have made this decision yet.

At one time the iPhone had 0 apps and WM had a **** ton. How long did it take for iPhone to build up a huge base of devs? I'm expecting a pretty solid selection of apps written for WP7 right from launch. Microsoft already has a lot of the key stuff onboard. I've got something in mind and will likely be doing one myself (something I started for WM6).
[Windows Phone 7 General] X-On:
I agree.

I wouldn't worry about WP7 apps' database like the iPhone people will get interest in it, its potential is great when it comes to the new UI (the only thing we know for sure).

About the Photon project, why do you think that it's dead?

It seems that M$ is willing to keep the old branch of Windows Mobile by renaming it to Windows Phone Classic. Perhaps Photon is the final evolution of Windows Phone Classic. I don't think, IF they keep on developping, that they are going to stop to this current bad look and poor customization of WM6.5.3.

I don't think Windows Phone 7 was supposed to be WM6.1, if it was the OS would be ready a long time ago.

I apologize for my poor english, i hope you understand my thought.
[Windows Phone 7 General] freyberry:
I have been told by peole inside Microsoft that WM6.5 will live on for no longer than two years, more likely only 18 months from now. I've heard no word that there would be a successor.
[Windows Phone 7 General] ramdroid77:
Due to the limited versions numbers left between 6.5 and 7 it's not really assumed they will keep it going for too long. after 6.5.3 is gonna be officially released (this month?) my guess it that they're only fixing bugs and make it run on few more devices. in 1-2 years I don't think anymore OEMS will demand it and there'll be not a lot of phones with CPUs less than 1Ghz and such and they'll all run WP7. For MS it doesn't really make sense to keep it going any longer.....
[Windows Phone 7 General] Win_XP:
WM6.5.x will be Windows Phone Starter Edition according to the latest rumors :)
[Windows Phone 7 General] RufusThorne:
Actually it's 'Windows Phone Classic'

[Windows Phone 7 General] dark_sith:
Any chance of a Photon leak? Would be nice project for Xda Dev.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Cotulla:
some screens ...
[Windows Phone 7 General] mamaich:
We had old alpha versions. It was very unfinished, slow and buggy.

Cotulla has posted its screenshots above.
[Windows Phone 7 General] freyberry:
I think Photon looked good. They should at least have finished the work on it and released it instead of WM6.5.

Let those 1000 developers work on Windows Phone OS 7.0 and another 500 work on Photon, release Photon in mid 2009 as WM6.5 and Windows Phone OS 7.0 a year later.

That would have been perfect. Ah I'm dreaming...

Mamaich, any chance you could have another look at that dev document, whether third party applications get paused when sent to the background?

(i.e. whether or not developers are allowed to write programs like GPS tracking tools or FTP clients that can do their work in the background)
[Windows Phone 7 General] mamaich:
There is no such info in the docs I have. These are OEM docs, they have lots of information on WinPhone kernel, and only brief info on user apps.

I personally like WinPhone 7 kernel. It supports lots of different sensors, hardware accelerated Direct3D API (no OpenGL ES), multi-touch, almost all drivers are split in MDD+PDD model simplifying BSP development and ROM updates, redesigned security model.

Obviously we will hack WinPhone7 to enable running native apps (similar to "rooting" Androids that we have to do to install features like VPN client), and publish our own "native mode SDKs" here on XDA.
[Windows Phone 7 General] freyberry:
Thanks a lot. We will have to wait, then.

Obviously, WP7 will be hacked and we will be able to develop native and multitasking applications. But I seriously hope that big, important applications like GPS navigation programs won't be restricted from running in the background... I'll contact MS concerning that issue ;)
[Windows Phone 7 General] bchau:
If MS continue with the Photon project, it would be more of the same.They would continue to loss marketshare. It may be technically more advanced for the WM powerusers. Unfortunately, it is a small minority for the market. the fact that Apple could sell their dump phone (1st iPhone) in millions and continue to do so well tells us what appeals to the the mass market. MS really has no choice but to follow the path they are doing now if they are to remain relevant to the mobile space. Yes, it is risky but the alternative is certain to fail.
[Windows Phone 7 General] ramdroid77:
I assume that Navigation programs would belong to that type of application that would receive a multitasking permission by MS.... If that story about the permissions is true!? But looking at the already exisiting Designed for Windows Mobile or Marketplace submission handbook this pretty much fits in with MS's way of handling 3rd party applications.
[Windows Phone 7 General] MrWhisper:
from the picture. are thet from Windows "Mobile" 7 ?

I like these UI. Microsoft should place these UI to WM6.x if WM7 was killed
[Windows Phone 7 General] ramdroid77:
Me only like other screenshots I've seen with the new bottom bar (battery and signal indication + start button in the middle. I don't know if it's even real. Whatever, I'm gonna make it happen on WM 6.5.x! I already managed to change look of the taskbar. the bottom bar will be next project.
[Windows Phone 7 General] adesonic:
I have to agree with all of the above, as well as my HD2, I have a Palm Pre and whilst I watched the WP7S presentation from MWC, I kept thinking - "that's like the Pre" Palm did a great job with the user interface on WebOS - it blows away the iPhone and Winmo for ease of use, but they did release an unfinished product (although they have managed to put a reasonable spin on the ongoing development by pitching "new features" into the mix every couple of months - things that should have been there day1).

MS are huge in comparison to Palm and provided they do not get bogged down with "big corp intertia", my guess is that the new OS will lauch complete with all bells and whistles intact.
[Windows Phone 7 General] freyberry:
rafyvitto said in another thread that it might be leaked soon.
[Windows Phone 7 General] freyberry:
Yes, those are real screenshots of "Photon", aka Windows "Mobile" 7.
[Windows Phone 7 General] l3v5y:
The images of Photon look rather similar to what WM6.5.3 actually looks like. It's just a coat of paint on WM6.5, and I'd prefer WM7 to that any day.
[Windows Phone 7 General] freyberry:
Even if WP7 doesn't give you access to the file system, native development, multitasking, copy&paste.....?!
[Windows Phone 7 General] l3v5y:
Has there been any mention of a lack of c&p?

Filesystem, since it's based on CE (in all likely hood) will be easy to access.

Native development would be nice (and will be there, just not officially supported or publicly available).

And multitasking does exist, just maybe not as fully as WM6.X. Thing is, the real use of multitasking on a desktop is being able to put two windows side by side. We can't do that on a mobile so it's less useful, and if applications suspend rather than close (which they do from what I've seen) nothing is lost.

I've also got 6.5 anyway, which seems pretty much the same as Photon, apart from the fact that it actually works.
[Windows Phone 7 General] freyberry:
Yes, the build shown at MWC did not include it. It's possible that they fail to implement it before year's end. It also seems like they're pushing their "phone number, email etc. detection" as an alternative, maybe because they know that they won't be able to implement full c&p before the release.

Not without hacking, if they go the Apple route (and everything currently hints to them going the Apple route).

Not officially supported means not allowed for applications that get distributed via their Marketplace. And Marketplace will most likely be the only distribution channel.

Again, not without hacking, if they go the Apple route of not allowing third party applications to run in the background. The operating system's ability to multitask is worth NOTHING if important applications like GPS navigation programs will not be allowed to run in the background.

But we have to wait and see... in the end, it might turn out that there is multitasking, file system access etc.

If there is not, however, then I prefer Photon.
[Windows Phone 7 General] gogol:
From "user" point of view, it does not matter :)

I am just a user, why should I care ... as long as the WP7 phone can do the job done.

Of course, if you are power user and want to tweak around your phone, you would want that.

But obviously, not everyone.

When was last time I did copy paste on my WM6 device (HTC Kaiser)?

Hmm ....
[Windows Phone 7 General] freyberry:
There are LOTS of jobs it won't get done without true multitasking.

Like having a GPS app running in the background, when you get a call in the car, so that you

a) still get directions while you're on a call

b) don't have to touch your phone to reopen the application (which is dangerous and forbidden in many countries) after the call and wait until it gets the GPS fix again.
[Windows Phone 7 General] pilgrim011:
Actually, yes. In one of the videos a guy from MS shows the UI, opens some apps in front of journalists, and then he answers to the question "could you copy that text" (or something similar) with "I don't have it enabled on this device". That means it's not implemented yet, and that's scary.

How can you say that? When I open some GPS app and I receive a call, it should, after finishing the call, continue with navigating, not looking for satellites again. When I'm downloading from rapidshare, I want that to happen in the background while I'm (for example) editing a word document and listening to radio etc. I want (no, I need) my FTP running in the background while I'm doing other stuff on the phone - sending a message, then adding some appts and tasks in Touch Calendar... Etc.
[Windows Phone 7 General] l3v5y:
One think I think no-one has yet pointed out is that this is very beta.

Has any WP7 device actually made a phone call yet?

WM6.5 was in a pretty crap shape when it was shown of last year, and by October it was a much more stable OS that was useful. WP7 is no where near release.
[Windows Phone 7 General] gogol:
I believe calling is a core function of a phone, and I still believe that it will take higher priority than the GPS app ...

So, in my theory, the incoming call will be OK.

It would be like "interrupt" of the running application.

Same like iPhone, correct? You can multitask in some way with its core functionality like Safari.
[Windows Phone 7 General] freyberry:
WM6.5 was at least feature complete at MWC.

I don't trust them, I'm pretty sure they will "forget" some features, so that they can release it sooner.

The iPhone does not allow any multitasking for third party applications. This is very, very bad and there are huge issues with this, like the example I mentioned.

I seriously hope MS doesn't pull an Apple here.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Ruudfood:
I've been hugely unimpressed with WP7.

As someone else asked, why could they not have ceased development of WM6.5 in favour of WM7 (Photon) and launched it without the fancy gestures? They would've got it out the door the tail end of 2009 giving themselves 18 months to get a really slick WP8S out the door.

By the time this comes round the interface landscape could well have changed again with Else. (else.bz if you're interested).
[Windows Phone 7 General] :
I hope i dont get killed for this xD, but since theres screeshots.....

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tWV436jfvp0
[Windows Phone 7 General] Kloc:
I doubt I'll see anything the sparks my intrest this year that will make me think WP7 took to long to come out. I'd rather see I complete feature rich device December 2010 then an incomplete one in April. There are a few things that have all been mentioned before that I hope microsoft allows with there new OS just because the reason I don't like Apple is because they have everything locked down. Hopefully Micrsoft can keep the platform open enough for our needs while still keeping those options hidden enough to not confuse the average guy. Think of it this way if WP7 takes off we will get so many more people added to our community :). If they don't keep it open well ofcourse we will just break it open but we will have a dissappointed look the whole time we are doing it.
[Windows Phone 7 General] l3v5y:
I'm actually kinda underwhelmed by that. Yes it's a nice ish look, but it's nothing more than a slightly better skin than 6.5.3. WP7 is a much better upgrade IMHO.
[Windows Phone 7 General] :
Oh yes lol 1000 times, thats just an early wm7 beta =]
[Windows Phone 7 General] l3v5y:
What I find interesting is that quite a lot of the changes in WM7 are present in 6.5. I doubt MS threw away WM7, they just merged it with 6.5 and then made WP7.
[Windows Phone 7 General] :
Well in the skinning level yes, but that wm7 beta is based of wince7.0, so on the kernel lvl they kept it wince5.2 sadly.
[Windows Phone 7 General] l3v5y:
Well... In that video you linked to, it said "CE5.2 BSP". AFAIK, there's no CE7 BSP for anything other than snapdragon.
[Windows Phone 7 General] :
Yeah thats what most people think xD, but it does exist =]

Im gonna get flammed for this....
[Windows Phone 7 General] l3v5y:
Is there any proof other than one image?

That also looks like a smartphone (standard) build rather than a professional/touchscreen build.
[Windows Phone 7 General] :
Yes there is proof, someone has it.....but i cant tell.
[Windows Phone 7 General] l3v5y:
Hehe... Don't worry. I'll find something somehow :D
[Windows Phone 7 General] Rim1Flex:
Windows phone 7 was the best way to go. Even though I liked the betas, they weren't powerful enough to completely over take the iPhone. The new OS can take over alot of the Mobile market share:).
[Windows Phone 7 General] RustyGrom:
Seems odd to me that something that was "stop work"ed a year and a half ago (Photon) would be based on WinCE7 which is only set to go RTM sometime this year. I mean the ZuneHD and WP7 aren't even based on CE7 and they're more recent.
[Windows Phone 7 General] l3v5y:
CE6 has been around for a very long time

WP7 is also supposedly based on CE7, not CE6.
[Windows Phone 7 General] refthemc:
I'm not sure If I agree here, I think you might be underestimating Microsoft a bit. Yes Vista was kind of a mistake, but that mistake led to that huge success named Windows 7. And I'm sure Microsoft does not want another Vista mishap again so I think Windows Phone 7 will actually be pretty good. In this case I would say that "Photon or Windows Mobile 7" would have been like Vista but instead Microsoft learned their lesson from their mistake and will now release "Windows Phone 7"
