Dopey^^ LOL

So, why not, but I like the black gradient background of your icons, which looks quite well IMO with my slightly lighter taskbar. What do the other members think of it?

But actually the question is: Which app is it we see in the screenshot? You didn't tell it^^

A little bit OT: I'm asking myself, what the [OP] next to your username means? Can you tell it?
[Windows Mobile Themes] Dark Ninja:
LOL, Dont worry im not hiding anything ;).. The magnifier is not an APP.. its part of the OS.. When u instal WM6.5.x youl have the magnifier the already.. so not an app.. just a advantage of the later OS.

OP= Original poster.. On every thread that is opened the person who opened it will have OP next to there username.. jsut to show other users that thats the user who opened the thread.. Its an update by XDA-devs

By makigna theme i just meant to add the softbar.. stick with the current taskbar.. and just add a few light skinning to the menus etc.

[Windows Mobile Themes] Lycox:
Ahh, thanks for explaining that.

:)

Still looking forward to it :)
[Windows Mobile Themes] zenkinz:
don't think so. the one in the zip file fix the volume icon in the task bar. but it will break the volume overlay.
[Windows Mobile Themes] gianton:
i can confirm that as well, volume overlay is not working after the volume fix.
[Windows Mobile Themes] fr0st420:
Just wondering why my signal bars looks like this when I have data on?
[Windows Mobile Themes] Purzelkater:
What is this patch for? I have installed it but now the volume icon from Ninja's taskbar (the "music note") is gone and it shows the old speaker icon.

btw: Nice work with your softkey bar, I like it! :)

@Dark Ninja: I love your Desire Taskbar (without start icon). :D Hope for the next release to fix the last issues. ;)
[Windows Mobile Themes] pimpol10:
I got the exact same problem, please help us fix it. I have Sprint's new 6.5 stock rom. Mike
[Windows Mobile Themes] zai_hkman:
Does the new taskbar miss the headphone icon?

it seems i only got the stock one.

Anyone experience the same issue?

i am using the 6.5.X one with the 20XX volume fix
[Windows Mobile Themes] Dark Ninja:
Did you use the right version? If you dont use the right version then it will become a hardware button for up/down.

Fixed :d

That patch is for the notification icon.. hmm.. Did u installthe volume fix? the right verison? :D

Are u talking about the bluetooth headset icon? Because the headphones one is skinned :S .. check in windows if you have the following file

"stereo headset.bmp" "stereo headset mask.bmp"

@All Updated with a few fixes and changes

Great work

2nd update:

when i try to connect through HSDPA

the H letter seems to be blocked by the icon

any fix?
[Windows Mobile Themes] RSchris:
Still have bugs on V2, concerning the data icons : when data is on, I see only the 3/4 of the "H" or the "3G". I uninstalled v1, reset, installed v2, reset.

[Windows Mobile Themes] Dark Ninja:
is it too far to the right or left?
[Windows Mobile Themes] RSchris:
The right part is missing, for example on "3G" I do not have the G.

Hello!

I tried to search for it on google, and on xda-dev, but without results. I monitored my internet connection on the kaiser with spb wireless monitor, and found that when I do nothing with the phone and the phone is connected to the internet, once in a few seconds, maybe 10 (don't remember), there is an internet activity of 2kbits/sec for a few seconds. The process doing it is called "system".

I wanted to ask if it is normal or I have configured something wrong?

I have phoenix III rom (WM 6.5).

Thanks in advance!

Just saw this Video.

http://www.gsmarena.com/lg_handset_running_windows_phone_7_caught_in_the_wild-news-1477.php

The specs are really awesome, 1GB of RAM!!!

Also winmo & looks pretty slick, I was thiking of getting a android phone end of this year. But with this coming up I am not sure what to do. When are they going to come up with phones that can boot multiple OS system. (could have tried palm pre OS too ;) )

The only other phone I heard coming up which would have better specs than this is the HTC scorpion.
[General Topics] freyberry:
Wait until it's time to upgrade, then ask again.

It makes zero sense to think about this now. A lot will change until the end of the year (lots of Android phones coming out and LG will not be the only company making WP7 devices).
[General Topics] denco7:
And here is an HD 2 running WP 7. http://www.winmo.nl/windows-phone-7-series-draait-op-de-htc-hd2/

There are no phones currently out with WP 7, M$ is just testing chassis requirements . It seems the base requirement is going to be a 1 Ghz processor. By the time WP 7 is officially released in 3Q 2010, believe me there will be a bunch of phones from HTC, LG, and others loaded with or upgradable to WP7S.

[General Topics] dcarr622:
That page you linked to is unlikely to be legit, there is no confirmation that the HD2 is able to run Windows Phone 7. In addition, I'm not sure they're going to offer upgrades, because phones like the Toshiba TG02 and K01 are launching with 6.5.3 with no indication of an upgrade.
[General Topics] matckal:
i think

that hd2 will be your best mobile
[General Topics] denco7:
The site is legit, it is the Dutch Engaget or Boy Genius Report, whether the pics are legit or not, who knows, but all the US rumor sites are picking up on them and the general concensus is that the HD 2 has the hardware to be upgradable

http://www.redmondpie.com/htc-hd2-to-get-windows-mobile-7-upgrade-9140128/
[General Topics] galaxys:
Yep, the HD2 specs will be able to handle WM7.
[General Topics] dcarr622:
I completely agree that the specs meet the requirements, but the question is whether it will happen (either due to the efforts of HTC or the community here at XDA).
[General Topics] SUCCESSOR:
I don't mean to **** in your cheerios or anything. But that site says IF that phone is the RUMORED LG Apollo then it will probably have 1gig ram etc. All that article says for sure is that it's a WM7 phone. I won't hold my breath.
[General Topics] Bikram:
B4 winmo 7 came out, the choice was too obvious, get Android (unless you want break the promises you made to yourself and get an IPHONE). Now my contract finishes beginning of Q3, and I was thinking of getting HTC desire. Now back to confusion, LG 1GB vs HTC desire 512Mb, Android with 20,000 apps Vs Microsoft WiMo. Hopefully we will get more info about winmo 7 soon.

Does anyone know to open and modify the xml files found in the rosie.apk. Im using ubuntu and when opening with gedit it just gives me an error. Thanks Glennlh.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] svirre26:
Hey Glenn!

I did a quick google, and what seemed to sort it out is "xml copy editor". I would link to it, but the forum won't let me do that as im a new user.

You'll find it in the repos anyways.
[Hero, G2 Touch Android Development] glennlh:

and it returned:

I have Ubuntu too and I looked in APT for a "DBase" editor/viewer.

and I found "dbview", which is a terminal application. I tried:

dbview AndroidManifest.xml

it just went into an infinite loop without returning anything :(

I tried other xml files in framework-res.apk and also returned nothing !!

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hixin:
Long shot but jist of it is this...

G1 got knocked about quite badly, didnt boot full stop but was able to get fastboot working fine, flashed the official ADP image to it using "fastboot update <insert filename>"

Now it boots but seems that the sdcard reader in the phone is dead as a door nail.

Basically wondering if theres anyway to flash custom roms using fastboot at all? Tried using the same method as with the ADP images but seems the zips just dont work, couple of pointless txt files missing, created these and aded them to the custom roms zip, but the custom roms dont use system.img format that fastboot needs =/

Any ideas? I literally dont use the phone for pictures, music or anything needing an sd card, but do need to use things that need root, and nothing that requires root seems to work with the ADP image so.....

Any help appreciated :)
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Firerat:
this is a crazy idea ,

boot to recovery with tmpfs support, adb push your rom.zip into tmpfs mounted /sdcard and flash ?

no idea if recovery kernels support tmpfs, you may need to compile one, you could get away with compiling just a module and pushing that

how much ram does recovery need? will there be enough free ram for the zip?

Hi everybody,

If you're interested by a better lifetime of the battery, just avoid installing any bg4all or maxmanila solution as it consumes a lot of power.

I know what I say coz i've tested a lot of roms (stock, stock 2.53, energy, nhathoa, chanvi) with bg4all AND without bg4all for a couple of days for each combination !!!!

Don't just trust my words, test by yourself

note : if you have already installed any bg4all or maxmanila, uninstalling isn't enough => do hard reset instead !

Bye

I agree with you 100%...was tested, lot of time, you are right...

what is bg4all ? and how i can renove it ?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] miro666:
It is addict for with more from 3 rows and columns in home tab of Sense. Best is who can live without HTC Sense, on nature Windows Mobile screen...batery grow 40-50% more life...

Need to try some days with no manila. Try to use Titanium. May then battery life will be increased more.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] DaReDeViL:
miro666:

bg4all isn't for having 3 or 4 columns at all, it's a modification of manila which make the hometab wallpaper appear on all tabs, it's called bg4all coz it's BackGround-4-All (tabs).

The modification you are talking about is something else and, I think, doesn't affect battery consumption !
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] miro666:
My mistake, sorry. I know some addict or modify is it, but sure drain battery... :)

And wit Task manager always kill unnecessery process and apps is good too for battery...

Regards
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] BumAround:
so, are you saying that any cooked ROM with the (same) hometab wallpaper on all tabs must be bg4all? any way to make sure it's there or not, please?
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] chiks19018:
And push email.

I see better life on weekends since it is not peak time and configured for hourly check for emails on non-peak times.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] DaReDeViL:
In other words, to have any utility or modification to apply the same wallpaper to all the tabs consumes more power and drains battery quicker than usual.

but consider that it's not the only reason of battery consumption, as mentioned by chiks19018, push email can increase it, and so does 3G network activation (which I enable only to use videocall) and all other unnecessary processes

Just run titanium, I get 3days on a battery and average 50% program memory.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure General] crisagatie:
so do I, with stock 6.5, sense 2.1 and 3G always on :D. I don't think it has a lot to do with the interface, but how often you use that interface. of course floating pictures in album will cost more processor times and hence more power drain, but most of the time I only use home tab, weather tab and programs tab, so it's ok.

[Touch HD Android Development] N!ghty:
It is not quite self-explaining how to install Android on our Windows Mobile devices. Therefore I took some time and wrote down all the steps for people who are new to "Android".

More testers -> more experience -> more knowledge -> faster/better development.

I hope this way the forum is kept clean(er) from all kinds of questioned that have already been answered many times.

ReadMe Includes:

- Partitioning

- Device preparations

- Boot loader

- Install steps

- Fixes

- Links

- more...

If you are a developer (you create your own package) feel free to use my ReadMe for your packages (update regularly though).

to download the ReadMe click the [Android Repository] button in my signature.

How would i partition a 1GB SD Card? ie what sizes etc are the last 3 same but the unallocated is just whats left over?

I want to use a spare card rather then the one that came with my HD.
[Touch HD Android Development] N!ghty:
normally just calculate how i wrote in the readme:

whole space -768 (3* 256) and then the other 3 x 256

but in ur case i would make the swap smaller (i think its not even used at all) and the fat32 bigger; for instance:

fat32 - 384 MB

ext2 - 256 MB

ext2 - 256 MB

swap - 128 MB (rest)
[Touch HD Android Development] Geeba:
To be honest the bit I find most confusing is all the different versions! :(
[Touch HD Android Development] ghosty_uk:
i didnt create any partitions on my card, and android works as good as it does on any, mind you i have not updated the files fo0r a month so alot might have changed
[Touch HD Android Development] N!ghty:
ReadMe updated!

updated a bit... :)
[Touch HD Android Development] qtype:
i agree...

i've been looking these posts here for a couple of days now and i still don't know how to do it....

especially the DualBoot thing...

is it possible to make a little bigger how-to manual?

or at least explain the versioning and the needed thing a little more?
[Touch HD Android Development] N!ghty:
the readme is about 50 times longer than anything else u will find about installing android anywhere else ;)

the different versions are just like in windows mobile, theres not much to explain, its rather up to ur personal preference. doesnt take as long as flashing a wm rom, so its easy to try out more versions, especially with more sd cards.

dual boot is easy:

1. install the cab

2. open the dual boot program and make all your settings, for example: auto boot android (click on the checkbox/ratio under android logo), check auto boot checkbox and check fast boot (means 3 instead of 10 secs).

3. restart your device, DONT LAUNCH HARET because that will destroy all the dualboot settings. if you restart/shutdown the device normally, the settings will be stored and android will automatically booted at next startup (or whatever you set before)

if you have android autoboot and u want to boot wm, just QUICKLY press the wm LOGO when the dual boot screen appears.

i might include this in the readme soon, just dont have the time right now unfortunally :(
[Touch HD Android Development] qtype:
Thanks for the dualboot help... i'll try that...

the first problem I have encountered yesterday when trying to put Android was SD card formating...

i downloaded the program you said and followed the instructions oh how-to and was not able to do it under Windows 7 with my 16GB SD card... does it even work for Windows 7??? is there another program I can try to do it with???

I have also dualboot on my PC with the Kubuntu being the second OS, but I'm not using it as much as Windows 7... I can try with it if you think it will work.. but first I have to download the 15GB of data from my SD card to my PC, again :(

I would like to put the Espresso build cause I saw that it has everything working beside the GPRS and camera...

can you tell me what should I download for my Blackstone so it works properly???

thanks alot...
[Touch HD Android Development] N!ghty:
like the readme says: partitioning is only needed for partitined builds, which means that android uses several partitions to store different kinds of data, for - hopefully - more speed. only glossy uses partitions, espresso doesnt.

for glossy, u can also use ubuntu (download parted magic or something similar) to create partitions.

for espresso, u just need to copy the stuff onto ur sdcard.

but thats all in the readme... i dont have time to explain in detail coz i need to study a whole ****in lot at the moment +.+
[Touch HD Android Development] qtype:
ok... thanks for the help... you helped me a lot just with the claryfication of the versions that need partitioning and the ones that don't...

i didn't know that...

[Touch HD Android Development] qtype:
one more question...

I get the following message '' Failed to load file\Storage Card\zImage''

Can you help me with that????
[Touch HD Android Development] N!ghty:
meaning u dont have a zImage at all (ur probably using espresso?). so download one from here, copy files onto sd card and rename "zImage.xxxxxx" to "zImage" and ur ready to go.

[Touch HD Android Development] N!ghty:
well, some details about what version you are using would be helpful. however, this is not the right channel to ask this question. i think this question has already been asked several times in other threads. try search function or read the thread for ur version, its probably a version-issue or only for your country/provider

Hi, I have been reading some of the threads here looking for clear answers but I'm still not sure what to do.

I have a 4GB Secure Digital class 6. I don't understand how to partition it. (capacities of each partition)

I just want to use Haret, what are the files that I need?

I went to http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=641021 and downloaded the base package and update 7/04/2010 package. Is that correct?

What do I do with the files once they are downloaded?

Thanks very much!
[Touch HD Android Development] N!ghty:
@Byte_76: for espresso build u dont need to create partitions. however it would be described in detail in my readme.

make sure u got a zimage, rootfs, startup.txt (included in the package, choose right 1 for ur device), and a system.sqsh (also included). then u should be ready to go.

but that, in fact, is all described in the espresso thread, read there.
[Touch HD Android Development] Byte_76:
Thanks for clarifying, much appreciated!
[Touch HD Android Development] Byte_76:
Ok, booting from Haret worked for me but I find the rom slow. Will Android run faster if I partition my SD card?

I don't understand the instructions in your text file. How should I partition my 4GB card?

Can I boot from Ubuntu live CD to partition the SD?

When a proper rom is created to flash onto the phone memory instead of memory card, do you think we will have similar performance to the Hero? They are similar hardware specs afterall.
[Touch HD Android Development] osamaali:
umm? wat abt win files?

i was thinking, i dont wanna get rid of my win files and i dont wanna buy a new card, if i format the card and put android files on fat32 partition as root and all, where will my win files go? even if i back them up i want them back when i want to use win mo....

could you give some details on that please?
