READ THIS

Then remove dithering on the files that you desaturated.

also, you should mention that only the the green keys are now grey.

I can post the PSD's if you like. heavy download though. then you could change the background to whatever color you like. As I said however, read the link I posted above. it will make sense why the file you posted is 1kb larger even though the colors were removed.;)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] SOHKis:
thanks man, it wasn't playing nice w/the 2012 package i'm running (shifted spacebar & xt9/abc switch) so i've put it aside for now. similarly to you i don't think i'll be able to spend much time on it.

i simply removed the saturation from the greem images that remained, making sure they were 8 bit. if i get some time i'll go back & remove the dithering.

thanks for the link, time to start reading!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] S.V.I:
posted PSD files in case anyone is interested.

check first post.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] hasseye:
hey man like SOHKIS said....i myself was playing with the 2012 package...

im not trying to be a pain at all love and appreciate what you do. I myself am gonna start messing around and reading that article to bring me up to speed with this.

I just feel theres no reason to work on an ezinput skin for older versions when 2012 is going to be the latest and 2011 already works with your current skin. This came from the tmobile shipped rom version, so chances are when all these companies come out to release their newest rom update, this might be the one companies include. Both cookers and originals will be able to take advantage of it.

To me it seems like an easy fix just an alignment issue, but who am i to say whats easy...

anyways i'm here to help if theres anything i can do. thanks man.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] Maringer:
Hmmm. Looks like a very good idea to me and I'm surprised there hasn't been more interest in this.

Regrettably, I'm on a Leo 2.5.2012 based ROM (XannyTech 2.1B on my Blackstone) and, if I reading things correctly, this Keyboard mod isn't suitable for the particular EZInput build I use?

Oh well, Swype seems a good alternative so I'll have to persevere with that.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] hasseye:
hey S.V.I

not sure why there isnt much attention in this....this is soemhing that all of us are dealing with....and this is coming from a diamond users...

anything from diamonds to touch pros to the newer version of them (2) to possibly even the HD2....we'd all like a faster keyboard. (yes i no the KB is wvga, but in portrait it works perfectly for us vga users, which is why i use it)

anyway we can move this topic into the Software Development section to attract more attention?

i just stumbled upon this by accident, so i can imagine all the hundreds of other people that would be interested in this...i would love for the latest 2012 KB to get ported, however i no your busy and was hoping others can maybe shed light on this.

Hi S.V.I,

I'm optimizing SIPBITMAPS.DLL gfx from unbranded EU TP2 WM6.1, but have some problems.

In the middle of the space bar there's a line. ABC/XT9 button don't have green color and functionality is messed up. ABC means XT9 and opposite XT9 means ABC. There's no simbol on the caps lock when is locked (2nd press) and few other glitches in landscape mode.

I'm using Unsigner -> PE Explorer -> mSigner (New certificates from 2010 - Privileged Developer Certificate) -> replacing stock file. The SDK certificates are also added in the ROM.

Even if I don't modify the stock SIPBITMAPS.DLL file, simply unsign -> sign -> replace in ROM problem exist.

Please help.

cheers,

trusa1
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] S.V.I:
your problem is simple: wrong dll image files.

what you need to do is dump your dll (original) edit the gfx so that they fit (using the PSD's as templates. then save for the web in CS4 as 8bit PNG's.

open all the png's with photoshop and save each of them as bitmap (8bit)

replace the old files with the new ones using reshack.

(P.S.: before you do anything to the dll you must remove the read only atribute; unsign the dll; open with reshack; edit images (dump, mod, import in that order); save the file and sign. check the dll.txt file that comes after you signed it to make sure the file is signed successfully.)

good luck. :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] trusa1:
I'm using dumped (original) dll file.

I made copy of file from ROM to SDCard and than transferred one to the PC.

Than dumped RUU_signed.nbh to check MD5/SHA1 hashes of both files (copied/dumped).

These files a same.

dll.txt message: This file is signed, but not timestamped. Succeeded.

Thank you for your support.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] S.V.I:
are you cooking this in or installing via cab to test it?

if it is a cab, you need to install the sdk certificates, and mark the dll as a system file with wincE cab manager.. it might not be overwriting.

I don't know what the problem is otherwise.

let me know if that helps.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] trusa1:
I have the stock WM6.1 HTC ROM, not cooked one and have installed TP2-AppUnlock.cab to 'unlock' the stock ROM.

Didn't find the SdkCerts.cab with the new certificates from 2010. I found WM65Certs.zip (http://htcpedia.com/news/new-certificates-out-for-windows-mobile-developers.html) with new certificates and copied them to the device the certificate installer installs them (sdksampleprivdeveloper.pfx and sdksampleunprivdeveloper.pfx).

Just in case I have installed SDKSamplePrivRoot.cer, SDKSamplePrivDeveloper.cer and SDKSampleUnprivDeveloper.cer

I'm not cooking. Haven't installed Hard-SPL yet.

The replacement of the ROM file was never an issue. Copying the modified file over ROM file or installing one via CAB working fine.

A they certificates OS depended?

Didn't have any problem installing them.

I have been successful in modding phcanImages.dll by the same procedure.

hey S.V.I. just wanted to say thanks a lot. ive been looking for something to make my keyboard typing more functional and since ive downloaded your tweaks its been considerably better.

im running on 6.1 stock on sprint and no complaints. i mean sure theres the minor things like the line on the space bar and the XT9/ABC button seem to be have opposite functions, but im all for functionality over minor blemishes so thanks again.

[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] CEO:
WM7 on the Touch HD?

Any news?
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] habibjamil:
Too early to tell; but I am confident some chefs will be generous and courageous enough to try it :-)
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Smobbo:
What i heard was that wm7 needed atleast 1ghz cpu and more rom/ram then the HD1 to function. So i think that it might be a bridge to far for the blackstone.

However i have to agree with habibjamil, there will probably be a few chefs who will give it a go :D
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] bigdyl69:
Given the amazing jobs these guys pull off already with whats available I'd say the sky's the limit. We'll just have to wait and see
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] mcdull:
I guess multi-touch is a core function in wm7.. So no go for HD1.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] KilZone:
As long as Multi-Touch (or Pinch-to-Zoom) isn't required to boot we can run it. I mean, HTC Album 3.5 for the HD2 has Pinch-to-Zoom functionality, doesn't mean it doesn't run on the HD, you just can't zoom that easy.

Second off all, if Microsoft didn't change the 'idea' behind WinMo (multiple device support) there will be a driver layer that producers can change. These drivers will be changes (probably) but that might give us an angle to build a non-multi-touch driver. (All speculation though.)

So I tend to agree with the quote below. Yes 'the sky is the limit', not all functionality might work, but we will have to wait and see what does work. Android didn't run on the BlackStone either, but see how for they got (that's partially Open Source, but still).

I don't know if it will run, only time will tell. I think there is a chance it might work, but also a fair chance it won't boot. It's all up to Microsoft what the OS checks for when it boots and what we can change.
[Touch HD Windows Mobile ROM Development] Fallen Spartan:
To early to tell. No point guessing. My gut tells me that a number of chefs will have a go, though my head tells me that it may not be possibly for a number of reasons.

HD doesn't have multi-touch

HD doesn't have 1ghz cpu

But this doesn't mean that some things couldn't be taken from WM7 and brought to the HD

We'll just have to wait and see. Until then, this thread is rather pointless as no phones exist with wm7 yet

Is there any way to get the 3d weather on the home screen without flashing to a completely different ROM?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] kimtyson:
Uh... From Home Screen- Menu-Home Wallpaper-Weather Wallpaper?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] The Jack of Clubs:
all the stock roms have non-sense 2.1. you need sense to have the weather clock and weather wallpaper.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] nayr1482:
Initially TP2's came stock with WM6.1

With WM6.1 it is NOT possible to have weather on the home screen.

Some carriers have released official updates to WM6.5. Check your carriers site to see if there is an update to WM6.5 available.

I am on Verizon and they have an official 6.5 update released. I believe most carriers do now (I don't think Sprint does).

I have the ATT tilt 2 so It came with WM6.5 installed. I am not sure what Sense it is currently running but is there any way to get an updated Sense?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] The Jack of Clubs:
the tilt 2 comes stock with touch flo 3d 2.1. not sense 2.1 or 2.5. youll need a new rom to get the shiney weather clock and backgrounds.
[HD2 General] lude219:
The Youtube client is a no-go for me. It would just "connecting.." endlessly and would not play at all. Is there a way so that when I'm browsing on Opera and come across a youtube video that when I press play, it would open the streaming media player instead of the youtube player? I look in the registry under opera to see the default player setting but didn't find any. Basically I don't want to use the youtube client program at all, and would rather have all the youtube videos be open with the streaming media player instead. Any help? thank you:)

[Nexus One General] DMaverick50:
i have a video thats in 720p. its avi which the n1 couldnt play so i renamed it as an mp4 like the other movies on my phone but it still wont play, the phone "cannot play this video"

I use doubletwist but it wont sync this video so i had to just click and drag from the folder to the sdcard

Is the problem that the n1 cant playback 720p? Am I not transferring the file properly? Because i was under the impression it would play 720p...Ive had three android phones and trying to play videos on them has always been like flapping my arms to fly, it never works and i feel stupid for trying...thanks for any help
[Nexus One General] AndyCr15:
I'm no expert, but you can't just rename a file to encode it in a different format. I don't know what double twist is, so can't help there.

Android hasn't been good for video playback, but all my videos that I encoded down for my Hero play much better on the N1.

The fact it wont play the 720p video files you put on there doesn't meen it can't, it just means you need to encode them into a format that the N1 likes.

I think the biggest problem is the amount of data the video uses per second compared to the amount of data the N1 can get off your SD card. Is it class 6?
[Nexus One General] Eclair~:
I know this is VERYYYYYYYYYYYY irrelevant, but in your sig, it says "HTC Nexus One", where as the HTC codename(?) for the N1 is the "HTC Passion", Nexus One is it's Google branded name.. hence "Google Nexus One".

I hate calling people out on stuff like this, because it is a possibility that I could easily be wrong.. but it is something that kinda irritated me lol >.> and please don't reply back harshly.. I just had to say it ~.~ but you probably already know :P
[Nexus One General] cekle:
The problem is the video is in the wrong format and the Nexus One doesn't have the proper codec. No you can't add codecs to the Nexus One. You will have to find software to convert it into a format it can recognize.

The supported video codecs for the Nexus One are on the Google Nexus One website.
[Nexus One General] theartfullodger:
Eclair stated..

I think they are pretty d**** identical, tho no doubt someone wiser with access to both 'phones will advise me otherwise...

if you run APP "Quick System Info" it will report all sorts of nerdy stuff about what your dog is doing: The report from my Nexus One starts...

i.e. the beast itself (my N1) appears to describe itself as both Nexus One & Passion.. schizo or what eh??

(You can send yourself the report (HTMLorTXT) by email... and yes, the APP is free.. )

Cheers!

Lodger
[Nexus One General] Eclair~:
Um.. you do know that N1 and the Passion are the same device, HTC first gives their own personal code names (from my understanding) to devices they create. I'm assuming whatever company asked for them to make the device then gets to rename it, or just keep the name (like the HTC Hero).

For example(s) the HTC Dream, is the G1, the HTC Sapphire, is the MyTouch. The HTC Passion, is the N1.
[Nexus One General] AndyCr15:
And myself I don't see anything wrong with saying HTC G1 either.

I understand your point, I just think mine is an HTC device that people call the Nexus One, so it's an HTC Nexus One... :)

I also have in my sig HTC Universal, wasn't that called the JasJar by HTC?

Anyway, we'er going way off topic here.
[Nexus One General] Makaijin:
Staying on topic, in my understanding android by default cannot play .avi files. As AndyCr15 mentioned, you can't just rename a file and expect it to magically reencode itself. Just like how I can change the Ford badge of my Ford Focus into a Porche badge doesn't really make it a real Porshe does it?

You'll have to get yourself a video file converter and re-encode it to the approriate format.
[Nexus One General] timothydonohue:
^what they said. it's done in the wrong codec. there are avi files it will play, i believe, but it can't do divx or xvid right now encoded avi files. you need to find an h.264 something encoded avi.

doubletwist 'should' be able to do conversions for you. but, it takes forever and a day. probably faster to do it with ffmpeg. google for instructions

Archos 5 android internet tablet has the best media player but i don't know if anyone can extract it and make it work on N1.

you can download the firmware off their site

I already posted a while back about it...

It plays pretty much every video/audio format and does it perfect ...even plays 720p MKV

and even plays youtube @ 720

Use handbrake to transcode your videos to mp4.

Just use the iphone profile, but make sure to change video resolution since iphone screen is smaller.

He's is talking about 720p even if you try to play an 720p Mp4 it wont play

o rly?

I reencoded the shuttle video from youtube in 720p and it plays without a hitch. (its already in .mp4 container on youtube, but still needs to be encoded)

1080p wont play though :(

:D
[Nexus One General] demo23019:
yea i take that back think something was wrong with the mp4 vid i was using all i got was sound no vid at just re encoded wall-E 720 and plays fine
[Nexus One General] kyleroden:
um guys. I hate to break it to you, but seeing how the screen resolution of the nexus one is 800x480, it is very fundamentally incapable of displaying 720 lines of vertical resolution.

Sure, you may have a video that is 1280x720, and the nexus one may play it, but it's scaled.

It's like hooking up a 15 inch lcd monitor to your computer and watching a video whos resolutions is 1920x1080, you can't say you're watching it in HD, because your display doesn't support an HD format.
[Nexus One General] Deadman:
that actually made sense.
[Nexus One General] lashtal:
@kyleroden — we kind of realize it will be downscaled to fit the screen :)

but if you dont feel like transcoding (which takes time) and have enough free space on the sd card, why not leave the vid as is?
[Nexus One General] NexusDro:
It shouldn't be that hard if people can rip the Nemo Player from the Acer Liquid.
[Nexus One General] Makaijin:
Think the reason why many 720p mp4 files won't play on the nexus one (or even iphone) depends on what encoding profile was used to encode the stream. The 3 mainly used encoding profiles are "baseline", "main" and "high". Anyone worth half their salt would encode 720p material in the "high" profile since is supports more bells and whistles like b-frames etc. and is normally intended to be played on a HD screen/TV with a more powerful player/decoder/PC etc.

The majority of mobile players don't really support the "high" profile since it requires more processing power to decode compared to "baseline". So chances are most 720p and higher materials need re-encoding for it to play unfortunately. Well since you are gonna transcode the stuff anyways you might as well set it at the correct resolution since the encoder software is going to a much better job scaling than on-the-fly scaling on the nexus one.
[Nexus One General] heero884:
So is it a codec issue or a hardware limitation? I was expecting a 1GHz Snapdragon to be capable of playing back 720p h264 videos.. Yes I know the N1 doesn't have a 720p display but it would be convenient if transcoding videos weren't necessary..

[Nexus One General] Makaijin:
Well like I said earlier, 720p player is supported if it's encoded in h264 "baseline" profile. The problem is the majority of the stuff out there is encoded on the "high" profile which isn't supported on the N1, iPhone, PSP etc since they all only support baseline.
