[Windows Phone 7 General] omniauser7:
I got DuraSec ClearTec screen protector in the post today. Its very cheap a pack of 5 for £4. I'll swap it when better ones arrive but this is good for the time being.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Cruzer1:
Hey guys, the problem seems to be the metal back of the Omnia 7 ><.

Whenever I hold the Omnia with my left hand and use my right hand to pinch and zoom, it does not register.... but it still allows single swipes/input. But when I place the phone on a table, multi-touch works fine and its as responsive as having no screen protector... wtf?

I'll post up a vid shortly to show u guys.
[Windows Phone 7 General] nrfitchett4:
capacitive screens are glass. No matter what type of glass they are, they are tough to scratch. If you treat your phone with respect, you will have no problems. If you like to throw your phone in the bottom of a bag/ purse, then get a screen protector.

I've only briefly used one on my hd2, and took it off after a couple of weeks. Still no scratches. You are more likely to break the screen from dropping it, then to scratch it.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Cruzer1:
Hey guys, have uploaded the video on youtube so you can see the problem of the Omnia 7 with a screen protector.

note: when I had no screen protector I think it was the opposite, where if I held the phone with one hand, and used two touches with the other it would work... but if i placed the phone on the table by itself and tried to swipe or use 2 touches, it would struggle... could anyone without a screen protector atm test this?

[Windows Phone 7 General] Smoothound:
AH! That explains the response I had from Samsung. They told me that the Omnia 7 has AMOLED which means it's scratchproof. Cheers. :rolleyes:

Yes, see below.

And a screenshot for good measure. Shall we consider the matter of "Gorrilla glass" closed? :)
[Windows Phone 7 General] Cruzer1:
Nope, they never mentioned Gorilla glass.....rofl. But does make me feel better because I ended up taking the screen protector off.

Regarding my last post about problems of touch input without a screen protector, phone works fine being held or on a table witout a screen protector, so disregard it, might have been something totally different the other time when singletouch/multitouch was struggling without a screen protector.

Eitherway, i've uploaded another vid of me holding the phone differently when the screen protector was still on, multitouch works when I'm holding it via the two plastic parts (top and bottom) but DOESNT when I do a hand grip, go figure.

Anyone else having similar problems with their Omnia 7 when a screen protector is applied?

[Windows Phone 7 General] Cruzer1:
Wow, dropped my Omnia 7 for the third time, this time only about 4 feet off the ground, but it slid front face on the floor tiles..... and what do you know, its got scratches ><. One short one, and one long but really thin one. If this does have gorilla glass, well, I thought it'd be tougher than this...
[Windows Phone 7 General] root beer:
Gorilla glass DOES scratch and chip, seen this first hand 2 times plus look on the web and there are numerous reports.

And from all the reports It would say it's 99% that the Omnia has gorilla glass. I did email them to have it verified but they haven't replied.
[Windows Phone 7 General] Cruzer1:
Thanks root beer.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] papajohn:
Hi everybody,

I've migrated to Android in the past couple of days, and the app I miss the most from WM is LMT launcher. It's not that I 've been using the app a lot in WM; it's just that under Android you have to manually fire a task manager each time you want to close an app. What I was looking for is the universal "two fingers swipe" from LMT that will allow me to terminate the current foreground app.

Any ideas or suggestions?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Sichroteph:
android is build very differently. You don't need a task manager. Just use autokiller app if you think your hd2 lack of free ram.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] hebbe:
you did not really read the post, did you? :) he's not asking about a task killer or whether it's reasonable to have one or not.

he is asking for an app that supports multitouch-gestures to launch applications, for example a video player, his favorite game, or maybe even a taskmanager (please, no need to tell again that there's no need for a taskmanager in android :D )
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] snoK123:
Exactly what i'm searching for! I wanted to open a new Thread and found this one...

For those of you who don't know about the functionality of LMT:

LMT is an app laucher which much more features! You can assign multitouch gestures for starting programs, switch between programs (double left for previous program, double right for next programm, double bottom to top for close program etc), switch connections and much much more...

I think it woult perfectly work with ithing thumb if you assign it to double top to bottom.

I already asked the dev of LMT to port it - but he don't use android on HD2:(...

Here's a little video of LMT - but its a very old version and doesn't show everything...

I think this would be a great enrichment for every android user!

Is this possible an Android???

Thank you very much for reading and replys...

greets

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] noname81:
Can someone with android development skills tell me, if an app like LMT would be possible? Can an app/service catch all touch events, even when it is not the foreground app. If this is possible, I'll dowload the SDK and start porting... :-)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] papajohn:
Lol, thank god that ppl see my point. :-)

Anyway, did anyone have any experiences about this:

If it is possible, I may save one of my weekends from WP7 development and try Android instead. ;-)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] kafer12:
you can try the app from my attachment. WinMo style X button in your status bar. of course this is not LMT`s "swipe to close", but seems to be the fastest way to close app in Android
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] snoK123:
OK, I'll push this Thread, because we need an answer to this question:

Would be fantastic if it could be done - and you'll do it, noname or papajohn!!!

LMT Android

I was thinking about Android, but without LMT i will stick to win mo.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] noname81:
Haha! Still some guys using lmt here! Thanks!
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] tiho5:
noname81, I appreciate your work so much and thanks again for it! I want to ask :-) when are you going to add more gestures? I think an L is possible (then you have a mirror L and 2 more rotated Ls). Plus double L again in the 4 possible mirror positions and only with this we end up with 8 more gestures. What about a mirrored delete gesture? There are many more potential candidates. Like double square but made and then this opposite direction of movement (counterclockwise) can be used for other gestures to double their number...

Please, see the picture.

Hope to get you interested!

Thanks again!

I will post this in the official thread as well.

[Epic 4G General] shinma6980:
Has anyone else tried this? I've tried it but I've noticed that it only shows ever 20 seconds or so then sits there until the next 20 seconds. Essentially, I'll start streaming live and the first few seconds of the video will show then it freezes. Once the timer on the camera reaches around 20-22 seconds, the live feed video will kinda fast-forward/skip to the 20-22 second mark and freeze again until around the 40-42 second mark. Anyone else experiencing this?

The regular recording videos and sharing them is fine but the live feed just flat doesn't work.

Should tell you what you need. I believe sideload wonder works only if you have installed the android sdk which you can just google and download it. Put the android sdk in the root of your c: drive of your computer. I think you need to place the sideload wonder in the tools section of the android sdk too. Afterwards, I had problems getting the phone to be recognized by my computer. I got mine to work by installing SEUS on my computer and preparing it for update. It will install the necessary drivers for your phone to work. (There is also an update for AT&T rom if you want to install it, but I haven't seen any difference after the update.)

FYI - I never got sideload wonder to work on my computer, but I did learn how to use the adb method of sideloading apps. Sideload wonder is just a "pretty" version of the adb method, so I would just learn how to do it via that way. You can check out this thread called adb for noobs.

[HD7 General] pr0ph:
HTC's website says the HD7 has an "Ambient light sensor".

When I have the Brightness settings on "Automatically adjust", I do not see any changes to the screen brightness. Darkness and sunlight have no effect. Curious to know if others are having the same problem or if my phone is faulty.

Thanks
[HD7 General] bukwit:
If I set mine to Automatically Adjust on either low/medium or high settings it does adjust according to ambient lighting.

Have tested by holding up to a light bulb on all 3 settings and have noticed the changes.
[HD7 General] pr0ph:
Thanks for your reply.

A bit more experimenting with a LED torch and it does seem to be working. The curve is not as I would like though. I would prefer the screen darker in darkness and brighter in the light much like my old iPhone. I was in full sun today and the screen still wasn’t full brightness. So with it on High and Auto off, the screen was brighter than when on High and Auto on. So Auto was bringing my brightness down to what seemed to be about medium levels making the screen a bit of a pain to see. I want full brightness in sunlight please. I am sure others will prefer this default setting though, especially those concerned about battery life. Hopefully a future software tweak will allow sensitivity and brightness curve adjustments. Until then, I will stick with the "high" setting and Auto off.

Thanks again.
[HD7 General] Ighor:
Have same problem.. Automatic light have no effect on my HTC HD7 (unbranded, with and without nodo).
[HD7 General] EdZorX:
I totally agree, with me its more of a problem in the darkness. It is way too high when it is completely dark and its more obvious when I switch it from auto to "low" as the screen does become much darker.

Its something with either HTC or windows as my old touch pro 2 had the same problem, in complete darkness the screen would never go lower than 30%...
[HD7 General] rhn:
The light sensor on my hd7 never seems to work..they should implement the way it is on the iphone:(
[HD7 General] Ighor:
Is anybody know is there light sensor available physical on HD7?

Heared on HD2 it work's fine. If it software issue then MS mast fix it.
[HD7 General] chivaslopez:
yea my phones ambient light sensor doesnt work either i see no changes with the auto setting on.
[HD7 General] Audio:
Auto-Brightness works fine over over here - o2 debranded with NoDo update.

When i take the phone out of my pocket/case in sunlight, i notice about 2 - 3 seconds after I unlock it, it gets noticeably brighter and when comparing to "high" brightness without auto it's exactly the saem. Agreed though i would like it to be dimmer in complete darkness (in bed, for example).
[HD7 General] brianmakris:
I am curious if there is a registry entry that I can change to help with the highest and lowest settings. If I turn on auto it does adjust it slightly when I am inside, but when I am in the sunlight I can hardly see anything. If there is no light also it is still what looks like a medium setting making it very bright. I hope we can figure this out, it isn't a big deal but still :-) BTW I am on TMOUS with NODO

Basically the same as the galaxy s with a small oled screen on the bottom to be used for notifications, etc. I think they're calling the small screen the 'ticker' or something. It's just a refresh, not a next gen device.

Thats if it's the same device I read about...

That would be the Continuum my friend :) and yes it most probably is that one
