[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] crua9:
if i knew how to i would make a rom i would make a rom like this

youtube.com/watch?v=7SImOIMcMlk

But i cant so i have to make this challenge to get a rom like that/

I have a mytouch 32b and im putting out a challenge to see if anyone can make a fully working rom like this one in this video asap to be crown the best developer in the world.

this means the bluetooth, wifi, cam, video, touch screen, and volume, calling, text, and everything else for the 32b need to be working for you to be known as the best developer in the world.

also im putting out another challenge. I look and looked and i cant fnd any rom thats not based off of any other phone besides from tat which is impossible to get their roms. besides tat rom all the roms out there is based off of the mytouch slide, hero, or nexus. I want a rom that fully works and is not based off of any phone out their and mind blowing cool. i want it to be available to the mytouch 32b.

for the both of these challenges if it dosent work with mytouch 32b then u cant be mark as the best developer in the world. but im not making a rule saying u cant make a version for 32a and one for 32b.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] alan090:
are you some type of idiot?

no offense not trying to be rude but this is primarily for 32a sapphire development and really your request is not even possible with the hardware on the phones we have - do you think 3d effects can be possible with the same crappy screen?

obv not - do some homework and stop making requests that are ridiculous
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] crua9:
it is possible. if you look at the nexus roms 3d gallery and the video you notice they both act the same. all u have to do is some how convert the code for the 3d gallery to the main home screen and trick it into thinking the icons for the apps is pics. then rewrite the code so when u selected an icon it will do what u want it to

anyways about the hardware being crappy thats kinda a major point to this challenge. anyone can make a great rom on the best hardware with a little bit of time but only the best can make a great rom for crappy hardware.
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] alan090:
then get cracking genius

heres some links to help you

http://developer.htc.com/

that should tell you how to get started on your own rom

so if you invest enough time you should be able to become best rom developer ever
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] crua9:
thanks i will see what i can do but this is still a challenge so anyone can post their rom on here and we will see what comes of this challenge
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] pix27:
ROM(e) wasn't built in a day! Anything's possible with the right amount of resources. If you're willing to fund it, I'll be willing to do it :D Talk is cheap, except on my Rogers bill!
[myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development] crua9:
lol nice. but ya its a challenge and sadly i dont have the money. the main reason why i made this challenge is it seems like everyone who makes roms only makes them so their phone is like a newer one that just came out. kinda like a keep up with the Joneses thing. i want it where we have roms that is so good that the new phones that are coming out will try to keep up with us and question why a few people that makes roms on their spear time is better then people who are paid to make it for new phones.

anyways if u are worry about money the person with the best rom will be known for the rom and just like Cyanogen he has people donate to him and if he wanted to he most likely could get ads on his site. like if this challenge go well then most likely there will be another one down the road and maybe that other one down the road will have money but in order for there to be another one this one has to go well

[EVO 4G General] tripcomputer:
Like most everyone else here, I want this phone. Currently using a Helio Fin and can't stand it.

On the positive, Sprint is ending all Helio contracts, and is offering a sweet deal.

1. $50 towards any device (on top of all other discounts)

2. No credit check or deposit (because I had monthy service 1+ years)

3. Helio service and this deal ends on May 25.

My question is: Assuming the Evo is released on June 6, how do I get the Evo with this deal?

Notes:

1. I already called once, and I can't use this deal to pre-order the Evo because "the phone hasn't been released yet."

2. The letter with the deal has a phone number on it. It's Sprint sales.

A few ideas I had, with questions:

1. Get a CDMA(sprint) blackberry from eBay (to use until the Evo is released) and pre-order the phone from BB/RS/etc.

Will those stores honor this deal?

Can their systems do that?

2. Call the number and get the deal, then return the phone within the 30 day limit because of their 30 day "satisfaction guarantee".

Will I get the "new customer" price for the Evo after I return whatever phone I pick first?

Will Sprint even allow this?

3. Use a prepaid phone until the Evo comes out.

Thanks for any insight anyone may have about how to get this deal and still get the Evo.
[EVO 4G General] bmxrider4444:
Not positive this still works but if you buy a phone, and in 30 days decide you don't like it you can swap it out with a diff phone and pay the difference, again not sure if this still works
[EVO 4G General] dsarch21:
dare i say stop using a cell phone for 2 weeks?? i know crazy...

i actually just sold my nexus and had to wait 3 days to get this lg phone thing from ebay to hold me over til EVO time.

being 'off the grid' for three days was glorious!!
[EVO 4G General] mrono:
I didn't have a phone for 6 months, it sucks but you deal with it.
[EVO 4G General] nonpointtruth:
I currently have an iPhone and I fully intend on selling it to get the Evo.. iPhone's are not all their talked up to be..

Side note.. Been awhile since I've been on these forums..

Edit: And no, Radioshack will not honor these deals.. Radio Shack is a 3rd party dealer for Sprint.. Only a Sprint Corporate store would be able to(if they even can)honor that deal.. I work at The Shack.. And I can't wait to preorder this phone!

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] sillymcnasty:
Supposedly this phone is able to announce incoming callers and read sms messages?

Voice command is enabled.

Messaging and phone are checked off

Notifications tab: Announce notifications through device speaker or wired headset

Only During Free Time -- Unchecked

What do I have to do to get this to work?

v.1.6.21881 WM 6.5 stock
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] sirphunkee:
Well I know under the "phone" options (button), you have to maually select "announce incoming calls", but you may have already done that as well. Other than that I'm not sure why it's not working for you..
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] sillymcnasty:
There's a little too many menus on this thing.

Settings -> Personal -> Button has "Voice Command" selected for Send Key (Hold).

Settings -> Personal -> Phone: I see nothing for incoming calls.

I don't quite know where to look for this option. Also, once there, will there be an option for reading text messages too?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] sirphunkee:
sorry silly, I didn't describe that very well :o

settings-personal-voice command (same place you probably saw the settings mentioned in your first post). Highlight "Phone" in that list, then hit the "Options" button to the right. On the following screen, check "announce incoming calls".

Also, do the same for the "Messaging" item in that list...hightlight it and hit "Options" again. This time, make sure "High priority messages only" is unchecked.

Those are the only other voice-command related settings that I didn't hear you mention already.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] sillymcnasty:
awesome.. worked wonders. i didn't know each separate listing had options. weird voice though lol. thanks
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] sirphunkee:
Awesome, glad it's working! Yes, the interface isn't very smooth, and that voice leaves something to be desired. If you want to adjust the speed that it reads to you (I slowed mine down), there's a setting for that in Advanced Config (the app)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] daniel_lfc:
I've got no 'voice command' anything on my phone?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] sirphunkee:
Are you using a stock ROM? I wasn't aware that there were any that didn't include MSVC. You can try the attached cab to add it, but first check in Settings -> All Settings -> Personal to be positive that you don't already have it.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] daniel_lfc:
I'm using that ROM from the HTC website from March.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] sirphunkee:
Gotcha, I just thought it was packed in any 6.x OEM ROM. Did the cab work for you?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] daniel_lfc:
All I have is Buttons, Phone, Input and Keyboard Sliding Sound.

I'll try the cab.

Below is the link to create your own theme keyboard. Thanks to Jonasl and GimpSta.

HTC_IME_hi.apk is the Xperia10 keyboard

HTC_IME_themed_by_gIMpSTa.apk is the red and black keyboard

Couldn't get the red themed one working. Installed it, selected it from the keyboard selection settings.. tried restarting the phone/etc, still won't work. What is the trick to get it working?

Try installing the one that says it is an upgrade, i got it to work. the Red is pretty cool.

Install the Xperia10 theme first n then install the red theme last, it should ask to upgrade. See of that work.

Hey guys, i got it working, all you do is install the file from gimpsta, go to language/keyboard activate the HTC IME MOD. then go to any where u can get a text field (messages/mail/gtalk/sms) touch and hold the entry field, choose text input and change to htcime mod

Heres mine

[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] krelvinaz:
Worked for me.

o Downloaded both APK files located in the first post of this thread.

o Installed the HTC_IME_hi.apk First

o Activated it: Menu > Language & keyboard > Select THC_IME mode

o Installed HTC_IME_themed_by_gIMpSTa.apk

o Turn HTC_IME as active keyboard. I used email, compose, Press and hold below the signature. Window pops up, Select Input Method and chose HTC_IME mod.

o I also reset (powered off and then back on) the phone.

Below is the two keyboard layouts. One for Alpha the other Numeric.

[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] Irishpride:
I just want to thank whoever put this together, I spent about an hour making different themes, one thing I wish we could keep on the themed keyboards is the button on the bottom left that drops the keyboard out of view.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] krelvinaz:
I do miss that, but... all you need to do is hit the back button on the bottom and it does the same thing.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] bbfunnyman:
There is an easy solution to this, that is a bit "cooler" than the button. In the keyboard options, you can enable "Gestures" Swiping Up, Down, Right, or Left can be programmed to a few commands, including "hide keyboard"

I personally have:

Swipe Down = Hide Keyboard

Swipe Back = Delete last word

Thanks for krelvinaz and shizs14 for the mod.

This keyboard is well and above better than the regular keyboard, almost just for the extra options available to the user! The color is a bonus.

Krelvinaz:

I might suggest modifying step 5 to compose a new item, and "Long press in text box" the part about the signature threw me off a bit. It wasn't clear to me at first.

For me, I can switch keyboard in any text box (not contact input) on the fly by doing this.

Works great when handing your phone to rookie, or someone who wants to try the different keyboards, I have Stock set to "Full Querty", this IME mod to Compact (my default) and Swype as a fun alternate.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] gIMpSTa:
All you have to do is enable it in settings :) Or, rather, disable the smiley button.

Keyboard settings -> user interface -> smiley hack
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] bbfunnyman:
great tip, thanks
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] krelvinaz:
Since upgrading to 2.2, this doesn't seem to work any more. Load okay, but when you go to use it, it errors out.

Have been using the non-red themed one.

I've looked at what I thought was newer, but that would not load at all.

Any suggestions?

**EDIT**

The HTC-IME theme builder works...

[Droid Incredible General] roflhorse:

[Droid Incredible General] flipinfin:
I didnt know when it was posted. Though why does every1 say you have to root phones to flash to carriers when you can get everything working on stock rom. what 3 years ago they didnt know the command ##prl# or was that in updated stock rom? or ##778# or ##program# these phones dont need qpst dfs or cdma workshop to flsh to cricket page plus only carriers that need nv files.
[Droid Incredible General] cmlusco:
You dont need to root you just need to get the new carriers prl on the phone, which can be done thru epst (##778#) on a stock sense rom. This works for cricket, boost, page+, etc. But major carriers (vzw sprint at&t) will not accept phones on their network that they did not sell you. In that case you need qpst and cdma workshop to clone a good esn from a phone on that carrier to your phone (which is illegal by the way). Sometimes on these networks it is hard to get data and mms to work, that is where root comes in.

Somehow along the way switching to other major carriers got jumbled in with switching to other smaller carriers, even though the process is very different.
