BG4all not working

Thanks for your great work & excellents mods! I tried many on my stock USCC 6.5/2.1 TP2 - finally got brave enough to launch Mighty's 2.5 / 2.04.82488 base rom, which has been flawless... Except... Any ideas why I can't get the BG4all to run? I have tried every version I could find-hoping one would take - restoring between each one - NO GO. What am I missing, it worked flawless on my stock 2.1? Also, how would you classify his 2.04.82488? Unlike the common 1922, 2011, 2012 etc., those numbers make sense to me.

I can't find any compatabilty threads to link me in.

Many thanks
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] santod040:
It works fine on Mighty's latest rom, as I have had him try it personally and it is posted in his thread as well. I have also tried it on his rom also.

Make sure you have not installed any other BG4all cabs or the HDwall patch. They will both cause conflict. Let me know how that goes.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Solarays:
Which version?

Thanks for the rapid response, I forgot to ask which version of BG4all should I be using? :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] santod040:
The one in this thread bud. ;)

As Mighty's latest rom is 2.5.2012.

Transparent Topbar - Taskbar

Is it possible to have also transparent the topbar and taskbar because the HDWall patch doesn't support the BG4All

BG4all not working - Resolved

I figured it out... I kept installing BG4all onto the mem card like I was used to w/ manila 2.1 (mabey I was just getting away with it). Doesn't work that way on 2.5, it appears. Thanks for the MightyRom spec - 2012.

I am using a ROM cooked with B4all

but I would like to remove it

what can i do??

thank you!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] lemonspeakers:
santod040,

Do you know why this cab is not working for the CleanEX DsE New ROM? It give a weird bloated/overstretch background with half of it chopped off.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] santod040:
Not sure why you would have that issue.

It's like that in portrait and landscape?

Not familiar with that rom. Is it 2.5.2012?

Maybe try my newer BG4all cab HERE.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] snhan1090:
Hi,

I'm sorry if this is a repeated question, but I've been reading the thread trying to find a solution as to why only half of the picture shows in landscape mode. Is there anyway of solving this without installing MaxTTM? I also don't know how to do the reg key stuff =x

could you possibly make a cab to fix this?

thank you!

(btw, im running on manila 2.5.2012)

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] santod040:
Manila is only capable of natively using one picture for both orientations.

That is the way all simple BG4all solutions are.

It has to cut the picture heigth wise, for it to fit the screen, without stretching in landscape mode.

The suggestion above works well, but is not compatible with many other mods, such as Co0kie's, MaxM, and GTX.

If you really want HQBG4all and would like to have seperate wallpaper for portrait and landscape modes,

and also would like to be able to use it with any of the mods mentioned above, I suggest you try the Voldeus Transparent bars, wallpaper method.

bg4all

is there something im missing? i ran the cab and its not working? is it supposed to prompt for reset? because it didn't for me. please help
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] santod040:
Try the attached cab file.

I made it to remove my BG4all that is cooked into NRGz roms, but this should work on other roms also, as I believe most chefs are using the same BG4all these days, or at least the same files.

What version of sense?

What rom?

Yes, you should soft reset after.

It doesn't work for me, it just made my HD2 to have a blank (all black) wallpaper, like it was using none, it was previously working fine with CHT 1.8.5 in HQ wallpapers and Normal Wallpapers.

I'm now unable to have a wallpaper, even after uninstalling and reseting (soft).

I'm currently having a problem too, I am unable to make my HD2 rotate to landscape SENSE.

No matter what I try.

I installed bg4all because I thought it would make me able to rotate my phone, but no luck with it.

I'm using Dutty's HG 4.1 WWE with COM 5 (22.06.2010) in a TMOUS HD2

OS: 5.2.23569.5.5.0

Manilla: 2.5.20153712.0

CHT 1.8.5

CHT editor 1.8.5.1

Please can anyone help me? I just want to be able to rotate my Sense 2.5 to landscape.

thanks.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] santod040:
BG4all will not help you with rotating manila.

That has to be built into your rom.

As for using this with Co0kie's Home Tab, 1.8.0 and 1.8.5 have BG4all and HDwall mods built in.

You do not need to install BG4all or HDwalls, or the HQwallpaper patch with the latest CHT.

All those features are built in and will break if you install BG4all over them.

You need to remove this cab and reinstall CHT and then your wallpaper will work fine.

CHT 1.8.5 has HQwallpaper setting on by default.

Just use the right softkey menu to select your wallpaper for home tab and all tabs in there.

There are many apps available to auto rotate manila, but BG4all is a wallpaper mod, and has nothing to do with rotation. :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] tamnteh:
downloading and will report the result back...

edit: already install the BG4all n it's working perfectly. wonderful!!

[Touch HD Themes and Apps] santod040:
Ok, here is a simple BG4all for the new roms with 2.5.2011 and 2.5.2012.

This will give you BG4all in both portrait and landscape and will also work just fine with the Co0kie Home Tab Mod as well.

Enjoy, and let me know if you have any problems, and what rom if so. Thanks! ;)

Many THANKS to Co0kie Monster for his great tool and new input for making BG4all.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Steve0007:
Santod,

You need to proportionate the landscape picture.

Decompile, change the size and position in landscape mod, recompile.

That should do the job.

Or wait for CoOkie to finalize it.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] santod040:
No, it is ok as TEST 2 for now, my friend.

Sure beats the breaking of the wallpaper that we had before when going landscape.

Please PM me, if you have such a problem with my threads please!

You can also change this as well, if you like.

Nobody said this had to be the only solution.

It just happens to be the first one for 2.5.2011 and 2.5.2012 that works. ;)

Relax a little bud. It's ok that I put up a BG4all cab.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Bandis710:
What do you mean by fullscreen ? When I use your cab I have my background on all tabs but I still have the black bars on the top and on the bottom , do I need to apply some transparency tweak ?

I am on a Topaz 20121225.0 rom ..
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] santod040:
Fullscreen, meaning that before, all BG4all's for 2.5.2011 and 2012 cut off in landscape.

To skin the top and bottom bar use MaxTTM.

Check all 3 boxes in the WM6.5 taskbar tab.

Then tap convert. Then it will skin the top and bottom bars.

Or you can use HDwalls instead of BG4all to accomplish the same thing with better quality resolution.

But you would have to cab up each wallpaper.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] miancule:
Sorry pal, I have to disagree. Please check this out:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=629714

As for the wallpaper positioning in both portrait and landscape, just PM me if you feel that you could use some help.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] santod040:
Sorry but last I had looked there your cabs did not work in landscape mode or with Cookie mod. I see you have updated with version .3 and a new description today though. ;)

I am glad that there are others willing to work on this as well. That is great, possibly yours is better. I have not tried .3 yet as it wasn't there before.

I am just trying to provide options for everyone. Thanks.

I also already had a HQ B4all that worked fine on 2011 and 2012, but did not work with Co0kie's Mod. This one does.

I do plan to mess with mine some more and see what else I can do to improve it, if possible.

So maybe I will need assistance later, thanks for the offer.

I do know that in my thread in the HD2 forum, there are many happy to see a version compatible with Co0kie's great mod.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] miancule:
I don't want to mislead anyone - my mod is not compatible with Co0kie's, but it has solid landscape suoport :)...
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] santod040:
No problem. That is why I made this new one, by Co0kie's own new methods for making BG4all.

I also had a BG4all with full landscape support HERE previously, that would not work with the Co0kie mod either. But you could set different wallpaper in portrait and landscape modes.

Thanks for clarifying, and that again is why I made it clear that this one will work nicely with the great Co0kie Home Tab mod.

Thank you very much for your work too though, Miancule. :) It's greatly appreciated as well.

I noticed that there was an iphone app for browsing the freeview tv schedule in the UK. Has anyone found something similar for windows mobile devices? Or do you know of any program that has the ability to download weekly updates for tv viewing? It would be nice to have an app for this.

In a totally separate question, has anyone found any Mpeg-4 usb tv sticks that can receive the new Freeview HD signals yet? I've used an mpeg-2 stick for a while and synced programs to my blackstone before, but would like to upgrade to a new HD stick. I've written to a few main players in this market, ie. Hauppuage, and they say that they won't have a product out until just before the world cup.

As an alternative perhaps someone knows of an RSS feed for the guide info?

[Nexus One General] windmill_81:
Hi, I've now used the Nuxus One for a few days and I'm pretty happy with it and all it's fancy fetures.

The phone works flawlessly and the only minor issue I'm willing to report is the fact that when the phone is lying on the table the touchscreen doesn't respond as quickly as it does when holding it in hand..

I've also noticed that if you touch the shell of the phone with a finger while trying to use the touchscreen, everything goes back to normal.

Is it a flaw only present in mine or is it an issue that involves the capacitive touch screen of the Nexus?
[Nexus One General] windmill_81:
Video Proof

This is the video I've taken with my other phone so it would me much clearer what I mean..

The quality is not great but I hope it will be explicative enough..

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hXPpyGwuSzM
[Nexus One General] nenco:
mine work correctly, try it on another table
[Nexus One General] windmill_81:
I've tried it on different surfaces but the result it's the same..

Problem is that it doesn't always do it, so it's difficult to judge if a surface works better than an other.

I've called HTC support and together with them I've done some tests, like letting another person use it the same way, but nothing changes.

I've also done a hard reset and nothing has changed so I think I will have to send it in hoping they will fix it..

I envy you in the US where you can just ask for a replacement... :)
[Nexus One General] rotohammer:
Is it possible that your fingers are real dry and or you are working in a dry low humidity environment?
[Nexus One General] windmill_81:
Hi,

I don't think so, since I've now tried it in different environments and by different people...

This is very weired..and annoying..
[Nexus One General] rotohammer:
I've had my Nexus One for over a month, but I recall having the same issue one day early on.

Similarly, I've had days where I can't operate the touchpad on my notebook computer because my fingers were dried out from handling solvents.

I have an associate that has a similar issue when the phone is in a leather holster case. She has to take the phone out on occasion to operate it, most while driving.
[Nexus One General] lightforce:
havent had any issues. Call them for a replacement
[Nexus One General] windmill_81:
I think I will do so!

The problem is minor but sometimes can be a real nuisance.. :(
[Nexus One General] :
Looks like screen isn't grounded properly.
[Nexus One General] windmill_81:
Yes, I think so too. It must be something electrical. When I keep it in hand or touch it, the static electricity must not influence it, but it does so if I try using it lying on its own.
[Nexus One General] windmill_81:
I've taken another video changing the surface on which I use it on..

Take a look: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iZ-nS_h5Pqs
[Nexus One General] rotohammer:
I'm glad to see you're still investigating. Because the problem is so repeatable, and the fact that its not a common complaint, I'd conclude theres a something wrong with your phone.

One thing I'd try is to remove the battery for 8hrs (overnight) and see if that make a difference. I've worked with a lot of electronic devices that behave badly after receiving a static discharge. Sometimes leaving it sit without power helps the static dissipate.

But the fact that it works while on the laptop would indicate a poor ground from the touchscreen circuit to the chassis of the phone, as the proximity of the laptop changes the capacitance of the internal circuit enough to overcome the lack of effect that the chassis alone needs to provide.
[Nexus One General] windmill_81:
hehe I have to investigate to be sure this is a bug relative to my device so that when I will send it in for repair they will have to find a way to solve it and not just pretend it doesn't exist... :rolleyes:
[Nexus One General] htcmagic:
try pressing with all skin and not with your nail. It needs heat to work.
[Nexus One General] rotohammer:
No, it doesn't. To prove it, hold a metal spoon and slide it across your screen. Mine works.
[Nexus One General] palosjr:
this was a common problem on the G1 and the way the capacitive screen was designed. In order for it to be functioning completely, HTC told users that he needed to have it in his hand or at least a finger or two touching the phone. HTC said that it simulated a circuit (the hand on the phone made a complete circuit while just touching it left the circuit incomplete) I have noticed the same thing on the N1... it works great in my hand on if i am touching the sides with a finger and scrolling or using it, but if i just lay it down and try to scroll/touch with 1 finger it becomes much less responsive, the same way the G1 would.

i will see if i can find the exact thread over in the G1 forums where all this is posted.
[Nexus One General] Batas:
It makes sense, but then, why others work? mmm...
[Nexus One General] rotohammer:
The only thing I found while googling is that you need some humidity in the air for it to work effectively. I'm really not sure if that applies to this specific design though.
[Nexus One General] :
I've never had an issue with using the screen on a table, so this is probably isolated, I'd give htc a call and ask for repairs.

Edit: I just tried for the hell of it doing the pinky touch on the frame, and the soft buttons became much more responsive. Hmm
[Nexus One General] SBS_:
Mine seems a tiny bit less responsive when put on a wooden surface and only using one finger on it, but far from useless. I can still use it as normal, but it seems you have to hold your finger on the screen for a fraction of a second longer.
[Nexus One General] windmill_81:
The thing that annoys me is that some devices suffer this issue much more than others and mine seems to be among the ones that suffer more.. :(

I payed more than 500$ for it and I want it to work flawlessly!
[Nexus One General] htcmagic:
I have been using nexus since it was released. When i sit at my desk is sitting right next to me on the desk, which is wooden, and is working perfectly. Just touch your finger properly and not like in the video. Also tried metal spoon and nothing moved.
[Nexus One General] rotohammer:
I guess I'm the lucky one then.

Heres a video of my spoon friendly Nexus One :)

View attachment roto-nexus-spoon.zip
[Nexus One General] windmill_81:
Ok, maby if I press my finger on the phone using more skin it responds a little better but why then does it not need this type of pressure usually? Why sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't? And why should I have to press the screen differently if my phone is lying on the desk instead of in my hand?

I understand that this is not a huge issue but since other phones that use the same screen tecnology do not have it I don't want to live with it.
[Nexus One General] rotohammer:
You have to compensate for the lack of capacitive effect you finger has when your hand isn't holding the phone. It's actually additional surface area, not pressure, thats causing it to work. Thats why the spoon works for me, but not a screw driver blade.

Basically, your phone just has a lower sensitivity. I wonder if your phone is less prone to the finger/palm wrap issue that plagues me. Sometimes I have to hold my phone with my fingertips just so I can operate the screen! I'm getting used to it, but Id think its more annoying than your problem. :)
[Nexus One General] windmill_81:
Annoying is the fact that the problem occurs randomly..

Sometimes it's perfect and sometimes needs as you said more pressure surface to operate..
