Hey there fellas ,

I'm new in this thing.. cant been tru some threads but cannot find the exact one that i m looking for..

i want just the taskbar and the softkey bar to be 100% transparent with default 1.66 rom..

seen some cabs with clock transparency or tabs but not the bars.. could anyone make a cab for it for me to install it.. Thank you..
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] k8sh:
If you have done a search, you would have found out that this is NOT possible. The only way to make it 'look' transparent is to have the bottom and top bar match the wallpaper and HDWalls can do that for you.

[General Topics] logicfox:
Hello,

I was wondering why there isn't a sub-forum for the Galaxy Spica i5700. Its one of the cheapest Android 2.1 handsets in the market with decent specs comparable to the Magic (I know the processor is inferior and it has lesser RAM. Lets not start a flame war now!). The device is being pushed wildly in the SE and South Asian markets and seems to be quite popular in the Europe too.

I therefore request the admins to open a sub-forum for the Galaxy Spica as I believe there is huge user-base (including me :D) that would benefit from XDA.

Cheers

Where is the 32 bit? I plugged my phone into my PC last night when I got home, and it couldn't use the driver I recently downloaded that I was using for the G1... Or do i have to manually update the driver again using the same driver INF file I used for the G1?

Strange, I'm still getting an error on mine. When I plug mine in, it tries to install the drivers, and then the windows driver install box tells me that the device is not configured correctly. And yes I have USB debugging turned on.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] fermunky:
On this phone, I had to change the default connection mode to Charge Only, and then also make sure Debug mode was enabled. It kept automatically turning into a mass storage device even though debug was enabled at the same time. Also, use USBDeview, it will find all your HTC/MyTouch/ADB/Android drivers installed. Remove them, unplug phone, reinstall PDANet, and you're golden.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] poetik517:
the HTC Sync update for the phone was released for the phone. it should contain the necessary and appropriate drivers.
[myTouch 3G Slide Android Development] chrisinaz:
I've done all the steps in the proper order. Removed everything. However, my phone was defaulting to the USB Mass Storage mode, so I tried it again in Charge Only and it still fails.

I also couldn't find anything on HTC's website that pertains to poetik517's post. But I'll keep looking.

Thanks anyways guys, it's not that big of a deal for me to just wait.

You'll want to remove the driver again via USBDeview. THEN make sure Charge only is selected, reinstall PDANet, and then plug in phone. If it still doesn't work, you are doing something wrong, trust me.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] resopalrabotnick:
Question to all devs, android and winmo alike:

would it be possible to create a rom for a davice with a large (3"+) touchscreen that gives the option of calling only a few preprogrammed numbers and receive incoming calls from only a few programmed numbers?

also, restrict access to all the advanced features like web browsing etc?

something that will respond to an sms from a certain number with a certain content by performing an action? like silent callback or sending gps fix?

this would be for a child.

as for older users, a large number keypad on the touchscreen with a list of contacts? displaying none of the more advanced info that would scare an older luddite using it?

think jitterbug phone, just better.

I would love to be able to get my 6 year old son and an old friend of the family a phone that is tailored exactly to their needs without having to go for some ridiculously xpensive scheme lie jitterbug.

regards,

Resopalrabotnick
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] Jackos:
Why do you need a child carry a WM or an Android device? You may "restrict" the access to a browser simply by not including a browser in a rom. Let's disable in registry installing new programs by running a .cab and the problem is solved?

You may have a look at Spb Kiosk too.

Dunno how to restrict numbers, you may try a Call filtering app, put some white-listed numbers there and exclude the program from the start menu. Or just don't include the shortcut into rom. No idea how to restrict outgoing calls.

I saw a phone creeper app that can track you down the smses that the phone receives, so I think that's worth a try too.

I hope I explained a little.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] resopalrabotnick:
it seems to me like it would be easiest to create a solution for ease of use and in the case of the youth version restrictability by customizing a smartphone versus trying to customize a featurephone.

the old age version is basically intended to be something as easy and intuitive to use as an old bakelite phone.
[XPERIA X10 General] peppars:
Hey all of a sudden one of my contacts shows a red circle like an alert or error or something on the messages screen. When i select the thread for only that contact it shows the red circle in the upper left corner right next to their name and number. I have tried deleting the thread and then sending a sms to them but as soon as they reply the red dot is still there. I am not sure what it means because i receive everything that they send.

If you guys have seen this before or have any idea what i did to make it appear any help would be extremely helpful thanks.
[XPERIA X10 General] Shiwantha:
I have noticed I got that too.

My only guess is all my Google contacts who are on gtalk comes online this will show an indication
[XPERIA X10 General] peppars:
thanks, you may be on to something now that you mention google talk. this contact is the only one who i have google talk with so could be the reason why i dont have it on the others.
[XPERIA X10 General] Shiwantha:
Yes its definitely something to do with contacts have Google Talk

But I have noticed any of my Google contacts selected as busy while they are online will indicate such mark.

In a way its correct if they are busy on chat, why evening thinking to call or message?

Looks slick :)

UPDATED 23/062010

This is the best video yet, which shows a nice example of the deep integration that can be found on WP7. Oh and its even faster, smoother and more responsive than the build shown above.

[youtube]YryRa-A4WlE[/youtube]
[Windows Phone 7 General] Kloc:
Nice video. It looks extremely smooth. Even as good as the iphone to me. I can't wait to get one in my hands.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Jokes On You:
Defiantly faster and has promise but I am not feeling the boxes. It makes the display look thrown together. With both Android and the iPhone providing more vibrant today screens I hope the final release version allows for background images, transparency on tiles and program shortcuts and things of that nature.
[Windows Phone 7 General] gom99:
possibily more vibrant, but the live tiles brings more usefulness to the wp7 homescreen.
[Windows Phone 7 General] shaundalglish:
More usefulness than the iPhone springboard maybe, but certainly a lot less usefulness than the Android homescreen.

And I'm not even sure whether it's more user friendly than the iPhone, because you only get to see 8 tiles without scrolling. With most applications only being representated by icons and not displaying any information, this is a huge waste of space. Normal application icons should only be as big as one quarter of a tile, instead of taking one eighth of the whole home screen.

The Android home screen clearly is a much better concept, with the ability to mix icons and widgets, so that every element on the home screen only takes as much space as it needs.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Jokes On You:
In the current market this can be a detriment to windows. You cant give functionality and usefulness lessons in a 15 second commercial so what the users see must be something that grips them and doesn't let go. I personally dont think this homescreen does that.

That Android method sounds like it can lead to a "cluttered" look if all items would vary in size. I haven't used Android so I dont know its functionality but I definitely agree that the WP7 functionality can be improved.
[Windows Phone 7 General] shaundalglish:
Well, there is a grid (4x4), the items can't take any size and position.

Also, whether it looks "cluttered" is up to you. If you like, you can place icons only, like on the iPhone, to have it look that clean, or you can arrange icons and widgets in a pattern, or you can mix them... you're free to customize it any way you like.

I agree that the tiles could result in cleaner look, which is good, but not at the expense of functionality. Unfortunately, developers can't choose what size their applications should be on the home screen (the choice between an icon that's a quarter of a tile, a whole tile or a double-wide tile would make sense).

Again, I'm a fan of clean looks, symmetry and not too many colors, but that must not come at the expense of functionality.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Jokes On You:
When you say functionality what do you mean? What functionality does the WP7 screen offer that the others don't?
[Windows Phone 7 General] shaundalglish:
That's the issue. It does have a cleaner look, but lacks functionality that would make it more user friendly, like e.g. Android's home screen. I think the clean look should not come at the expense of functionality. They must think of ways to have both, e.g. making icon-only tiles smaller and allowing developers to choose from different sizes.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Zd0s:
I hate the style of WP7 i prefer android or windows mobile 6 series
[Windows Phone 7 General] shaundalglish:
Well that's a matter of taste. I'm a fan of "clean" looks. Nevertheless, user friendliness and functionality are more important and WP7 unfortunately lacks both. The Android home screen is much more user friendly/functional.
[Windows Phone 7 General] jonnymint:
I love the clean look of WP7.

Although, to me, iPhone OS may not have the "at a glance" info, it (and android) look way more polished to me.

That said, being able to choose the colour of tiles, a choice of background, and a choice of transparency for the tiles would probably help a great deal.

One more thing:

YESSS!! They've finally made the Internet Explorer tile icon white!!

It looks so much more in tune with the rest of the OS now. :D
[Windows Phone 7 General] style1:
looks good, I thing WP7 would be being awesome with a wheel like HTC Tilt or something similar. Would make things so much easier scrolling about the screen so you don't always have to touch the screen to do what needs to be done

~style1~
[Windows Phone 7 General] Casey_boy:
I wish that guy would keep his hand still! lol. It gets very distracting!

I see the tile background for pictures and the music and video are different on this guys phone. So that leads me to believe that we'll at least be able to customise those :)

I think the blank spaces (where a user removes a tile) are strange though. I would have expected that the tiles below would shift up to fill the space cos it just looks odd.

P.S. Need to brush up on my French!
[Windows Phone 7 General] NoWorthWhile:
Those tiles actually show you the last image shown/last song played.

Dunno the validity of that date though...

~style~
[Windows Phone 7 General] rorytmeadows:
Well, you'd be surprised. I'm not criticizing what he is doing. I understand a lot of people do that. But it's literally making me uncomfortable and borderline nauseous. No kidding.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Jin187:
I find the UI very functional and user friendly. Its clean, fluid, fast and the idea of grouping 3 different apps into a single hub is brilliant. With this idea, the 8 hubs could actually give you access to 24 different applications.

I currently own a HTC Desire and to watch a video i have to go into an app for it, then to play music its another app and then the radio is another app. On WP7 its all in one place, one hub, one icon instead of 3 and thats just one example of many possibilities.

I find Android home screens aren't very intuitive when it comes to arranging widgets/programs its extremely clunky and can be very frustrating.
[Windows Phone 7 General] shaundalglish:
It's not one Icon instead of three. You have to ho into the hub, then into Zune or radio or... That's at least two clicks.

How many clicks until you're in an app in Android? Maximum two.

And instead of grouping apps into a hub, you can group them into a folder on Android. Or onto one homescreen (like a "music" screen, a "pictures" screen and so on). Or place widgets.

All the things in WP7, you can have them on Android, but better.

Tiles are like widgets, but widgets are better.

Hubs mean integration, but the integration posibilities on Android are much greater. You don't need Hubs, because Android already gives lots of integration possibilities, much more than WP7.

You can have information, shortcuts, favorites on your home screen, but you can have more on Android...

[Desire General] niklz:
Hey all,

I recently received a sony bluetooth headset (MW600) for ease of mp3 listening on my desire. The headset is pretty good all round, the play pause skip track functions are all pretty quick and the audio quality is nice.

The device comes with an LED screen so that caller ID and track titles can be shown, currently the desire does not support the track title feature. It's a real shame for me personally as I've missed not having track titles since the MiniDisc days.

I did know that it wouldn't work prior to purchase, but I wanted to get a future-proof solution such that if/when the correct bluetooth profiles are featured on the desire I can enjoy them :).

My question is to the people most in the know, how likely is this to become a future desire feature, and secondly are there any roms supporting this?

My intuition tells me it isn't a hardware limitation.. is this right?

Anyway, thanks in advance

regards,

niklz
[Desire General] The Professor:
As far as I'm aware (from my limited research), that's a feature limited to Sony Ericsson's own phones. I don't know that it'll EVER be added to other phones, but maybe if you could get the relevant info off an SE phone it could be investigated.
[Desire General] niklz:
ahh, that would suck..

I tried on my housemates sony phone, its the second latest walkman phone. It didn't even see the device, I've read several sources saying that it doesn't work with the x10 which ofc is android, I would assume sony would fix this (they are linking it as an accessory for the x10). If I find more I'll post more, shall try my best to pair with new sony phones when I see them :)
