Sorry to hear that. The app is after-all still under development.

Did you follow the uninstall instructions? If not then try re-installing SenseUtil and removing the tab as instructed, since you MUST remove the reference to the tab from sense when removing the tab files.

Let me know if you have any further problems.

Update:

Also please could you post details of the bugs, if they have not been fixed already in my development version then I would love to know what they are so I can fix them too. Many thanks.

re

hay meltwater

i have your RSS Tab.cab in my OS Kitchen integrated.

i habve a problem with your RSS tab.

i push the menu button and Setings or Debug. i became the massage:

RSSUtil.exe

MissingMethodException

RSSUtil.RSSTab_Forms.RssTabSettingPage..ctor

(Boolean advancedEnabled)

RSSUtil.Program.Main(String[]args)

have you a idea? i can not found the problem

great thanks
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] meltwater:
Thanks for reporting the issue, sorry about the delay in replying weekends are usually too busy to spend much time on here.

Looking at the exception message, I'm not quite sure how that occurred, my best guess is that one of the required dlls are missing and it is trying to call a function from it. If you are able to post your RSSUtilDebug.xml file from the programs directory, it should trace where it got to before the exception (note: you may need to recreate the fault, since the debug log is renewed each run).

Note, I hope to start releasing new beta versions soon (see the development thread) so keep an eye out for them.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] meltwater:
3.Beta.0 Version released on the developer thread.

I will update the release version on here when I am confident the new version is suitable, but you are welcome to give the new version a try.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Laurentius26:
That's great news Meltwater, thank you for the update. :)

I will keep you informed.

Grtz, Leo :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] meltwater:
No problem, the sooner I get some feed back the sooner I can start to push through the rest of the development changes.

BTW: XdaTV podcast app is completed, been a nice little project! :D
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] kserogo:
hi meltwater the rss tab is a realy cool idea and i am happy to see that you are trying hard to bring it to life fully functionable...!

i just installed the V3.0 beta version and updated to V3.1 beta. As far i as i can see up to now there are still some little problems.

1st) when i open a post and read it, then it still stays as "new".

it will be "read" only if i open it via rss hub.

2nd) when i open a post, the text appears in a white box (like pop-up) without an image and it disappears by a single touch

3rd) it would be cool if you could make the posts to change by a single scroll right or left, like the rss hub. because now you have to close one post and go back to the headers and the tap another post.

generally, i think that it is not yet quite user-friendly and i personaly will stay with rss hub wating for your update ... :-P

i wouldnt bother mentioning all these but since you want to make that tab perfect i thought my comment could help you improve it...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] meltwater:
1st off, many thanks for the feedback! Yes I really do need feedback so I can continue to improve it.

In response to your points:

1st) Yep that bit is not done yet, mainly since writing to the files can cause bigger problems (i.e. you risk messing up peoples data!), so I've been testing it and will hopefully integrate it fully soon. Donate users are able to set a feed as all read or all unread (this is one way I've been checking it works without issue so far). Also, I wanted to be able to set un-read an item too, which required the ability to select items and bring up a choice of actions...I've now got that working just about, so that will come in a future version.

2nd) Try changing the Item View Mode, in the settings page (I think I've changed the default to "OpenNetCF WebBrowse" which is the best mode at the moment). It's not perfect (I'm aware of some issues on it), but it is something I'll be coming back to soon to improve (basically the MS standard controls for this are terrible so I've had to search for alternatives hence the selection of different ones).

3rd) That mode should do that, I've not had feedback about how well that works though, I just wrote it and guessed suitable values and limits etc until it seemed to work ok. Also, you can switch the scaling mode for pictures with a diagonal swipe. I might fine tune it a little next time I look at it, as there is more I can do with it.

All feed back is good, helps me work out where I need to focus on etc, plus it has reminded me I need to update the user manual!

Thanks for taking the time to post.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] eddietta:
When I had tried to install v3.Beta.0 into main storage, it couldn't be successful. Would you help me please?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] meltwater:
Of course, please tell me what happened and I'll try to help.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] rickyjune:
is there any other theme than green
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] meltwater:
Only just released the theme dev pack, so not yet. What colour would you like?

If you are interested in creating one, then let me know.

If you can provide the RBG values for the different text colours then I can always create a suitable theme file for you.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] rickyjune:
thanks for your generous offer. if you get around to it i would like a white text [255,255,255] with headline color of dark red [135,0,0] :D
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] 1milenia:
can you make a video to understand all this
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] meltwater:
Ok, I'll see what I can do. I'll post the raw lauc file too, so you can see how it is done, it's not too bad when you get used to it.

I'll post the result in the development thread, since it is beyond the scope of the release thread here.

UPDATE:

I've added the info for the Green theme, to post#5 on the dev thread. I can still do your theme text, but you'll need to pick a colour for Read items (typically a duller one so the Unread/New items standout).

I will update the manuals when I've done some more of the betas, since it'll get out of date each time I bring out new features.

A video is a good idea too, will consider that when we have all the new features in place, hopefully I can get some help from the XdaTV guys on that.

Is there any particular aspect you need help or want more info on? As I expect if you are unsure then there are others too.

Is your problem similar to this one below (reported for the fbTab)?

Sounds like you need to enable it to install unsigned applications, I'm using non-stock rom so I can't recall how, but somewhere should tell you (it's a reg key somewhere).
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] rickyjune:
thank you som much for your generousity. I've seen the txt file, do I adapt that then dump it in the Windows folder?

do I need to rename it?

or save it as a different file from a text file?

also my READ color would be [128,128,128] :D
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] meltwater:
Unfortunately it does need to be compiled using a Luac Compiler like the one in the CommandLine Manila Kitchen. It is a bit of a pain to do just for a single file really (no problem once you have it setup though).

Easiest option is for you to post it once you've set each bit how you want it and I'll compile it for you. The resultant file will be 4F9BE867_manila, which will replace the one already there in the windows directory, you'll then have to reset sense.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] timjarsky:
thanks

Thank you for developing this tab.

After almost 2 years with my touch pro2, because of development at xda, I still don't see any compelling reason to upgrade my phone.

Cheers!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] meltwater:
Thank you!

Glad the tab adds to your enjoyment of wm. I agree wm has plenty more to give I think.

+plus thank you for your kind donation! Will PM you about your donate code!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] meltwater:
I've done you a theme file, just rename to 4F9BE867_manila and replace the one in windows. You'll then need to reset sense.

I've also included a CSS file to match.

Development Announcement!

Big RSSTab Development Announcement - Facebook Support
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] meltwater:
Before I release the beta which includes the facebook functionality I'm releasing V3.0 of the tab, which includes all the beta work I've done up until that point.

(05June2011) Stable Release 3.0 (CodePlex 8974) Details here

I shall be updating the user manual soon too, since a number of new features will probably need explaining etc.

Please let me know if you have any questions etc about using the tab, I am happy to answer any questions you have.

[Off-topic] TotallyEpic:
Hi there,

I just started a new website at http://www.androidheroes.com, which will focus on Android Apps and the overall Android ecosystem.

I've decided on a feature, that each friday, I would like to do feature on a single app, to help gain some publicity for the developer, at no charge.

As a software developer myself, I know how important publicity is, and I want to allow developers to use my site as a tool for just that.

I don't know if this is against forum rules, but I quickly checked, and couldn't really see anything.

There's a few criteria to be met:

App must be complete and released on the Market.

Submission must include a 638(w)x300(h) image to be featured on the front page.

A QR code and link to the application must be provided.

No more than 500 words about the application, including summary, functionality etc.

No more than 200 words about the developer, including profile, homepage etc.

I am aware that Android Heroes is a new site, but with features like this we hope to grow our user base rapidly.

Please send all submissions to MOD EDIT: REMOVED EMAIL, I will chose the best submission and feature it tomorrow (Friday 25th).

Thanks,

Chris

Hey,

i'm trying to activate my internal gps on the htc touch pro 2 to use navimaps. But it never finds any signal. Also, I can't find any tab in the settings menu to turn my internal gps on. I'm running WM 6.5. The only tab I find is for the AGPS services, but none for the internal GPS device.

Thanks for thel help!
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Nd01:
I had a similar issue before my phone decided to device lock itself permanently (although that's a completely different issue - just be warned, if you're running 6.5 it's likely to happen - even on a stock ROM, which I had) - try enabling Bluetooth while using the GPS. My phone wouldn't get a signal lock if Bluetooth wasn't activated. Hope this helps :D
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adrift02:
Hi guys,

I'm suffering trying to get some videos to play on my epic. They are MKV: h264 (848x480) and ogg. At first I thought the phone saying it wouldn't support the video was the audio codec, which I tried remuxed as mp3 and wav, neither helped. At this point I am wondering it the h264 resolution isn't supported?

However, another weird issue is my epic also won't play some videos I already reformatted for my ipad.These are MP4: h264 768x576 and AAC. I can't imagine the epic being more limited than the crippled ipad...

Am I missing something here? Everywhere I look, all of these formats are supposed to be supported (well, maybe not ogg). Also, every once in awhile one of these combinations will play, but with missing audio, no subs, can't seek, freezing video, etc. Always some error, and usually just outright says the system doesn't support the format.

Thanks for the help guys, this is stressing me out lol, so sick of trying conversions.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Isira:
What software are you using? Handbrake with Normal profile works just fine on the Epic (but High Profile does not work).
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chinoto:
Last time I tried to find a decent video transcoder for Windows it was a nightmare, maybe this will help you (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Free_video_conversion_software).

If that doesn't workout you could try this: Find a Linux distribution such as Ubuntu, burn it to cd, when its loaded click "Try Ubuntu", and once connected to the internet press Alt+F2 and copy in "(sudo apt-get install arista); arista-gtk". I tried another program called Transmaggedon, but although it gave more control over transcoding, it didn't appear to work.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adrift02:
Ya handbreak did work. Unfortunately I still have to demux both the original and post-hb file to transfer the subs over as handbreak isn't doing it.

Thx for the help. I would still like to know the resolution limitation tho so if anyone knows...
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adrift02:
So I have been fooling around with it some more and found that when I recode using handbreak I don't need to change the vid resolution, just have to force it to 24fps and everything, vid/audio/subs, sync fine (source is 30fps).

I don't think the epic supports ogg/vorbis audio, which explains why the source material didn't work, but then after remuxing with compatible audio why wouldn't it work? All I can think of is handbreak is compressing the bitrate even though I'm not changing any settings there...

I'll update with any new findings.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chinoto:
I took another look around and it looks like SUPER would work quite well. It can use FFmpeg which has support for pretty much every known format and gives you a lot of control over the output. I really didn't expect to find anything this good on Windows, but FFmpeg was originally used under GNU/Linux, so it isn't as surprising.

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] running_the_dream:
Strange, I run mkv with no problem at all. I use Double Twist as my player. Not sure whether this has built in codecs for mkv. I never checked because I can play everything on my phone. Except damn Netflix of course.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] adrift02:
Thx for the recommendation chinoto.

The mkv capablity should be built into the phone independent of the software playing it (at least that's my understanding). All of my reencoded mkv's are working fine which I'm attrbuting to the lower bit rate.

The original bitrate was 1,534Kbps (video), handbreak compresses it to 681Kbps at the same resolution (24fps from 30fps original for sync though).

What's the highest bitrate you guys have had work correctly (no syncing issues even after seeking)?

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] sottyc:
My phone before moving to android was a n900 with maemo. Problem I have is that with that you had card based multitasking which for example you could be playing a YouTube video on the browser or a app. Then minimize it and still hear it running in the background while you text...with android the app seems to just freeze which is what IV always hated about iPhones...

P.S By freezing I mean freezing the state of the app as opposed to "crashing" lol
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] TakoLuffer:
What exactly are u stating you say its bad but then u complain it just freezes.???? If I may add, android does this and over time shuts off the app....iphone usually doesn't all the time..... And unless your playing music in the backround I find no need to be running music while on the phone doing stuff, it saves ram.....also there's an app for that (possibly) pun intended
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] SteveG12543:
Get a task killer? I've had no problems with freezing. I'm actually streaming music from Slacker radio right now; no slowdown at all.

Sent from my Droid Incredible running Myn's Warm Two Point Two RLS5.3.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] sottyc:
:D I dont mean the phone freezes lol I mean android freezes the state of the app rather than letting it carry on running fully as maemo would..

Just wondering if there is a way around this..

Im pretty sure the n900 was underpowered compared to a Nexus S hence why I thought it would be able to keep apps running not in a "frozen state" in the background...
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] SteveG12543:
Oh. Never mind then, sorry about that lol. I'm not sure how to prevent that.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Brut.all:
@sottyc

Multitasking of OS doesn't mean every app is always minimized - that would be really bad. It means app could run in background if it want. YouTupe app doesn't want to do that and this makes much sense for me.

You could try to find an app to play YouTube videos in the background, but I don't think this is a good idea. Phone isn't a PC, you know ;-)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] grindingbob:
As a user you shouldn't notice any difference to your app's behaviour whether it's frozen or even killed in the meantime. As a developer you can influence, to a degree, your app's priority, or create a service, so that android doesn't freeze or kill your app - it still will in extreme cases. In most cases, however, you shouldn't need to.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Dirk:
You wouldn't have an enjoyable experience running youtube and anything else simultaneously. Phones just aren't that powerful, although the dual cores will probably be an improvement.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] sottyc:
This is what alot of people dont get...its not to do with performance..My PC back in the day had less power than modern phones and it still worked fine with windows 98 lol...

As said the N900 is underpowered compared to most android devices and that could run anything in background in fact to could have loads of apps open and keep running while you do other stuff..

Youtube might seem a stupid one but I only use it to listen to music so can be useful to be running..

I dont think its anything to do with power, its the OS not being able to cope...

You cant even run online radio via flash via a website and minimize it so you can keep listening.

There are many uses for this...just never thought android does not like to cope with a load..
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] grindingbob:
To say that the OS cannot cope with multi-tasking is like saying linux cannot cope with multitasking. What you describe are design decisions of the developers of the apps you mention. So, I guess, you should get apps that work for you.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Dirk:
The things you are talking about, Youtube streaming and running Flash, are resource intensive.

Multitasking with these is not the same thing as editing a document and periodically checking your email account ot updating your FB status!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Brut.all:
@sottyc

As I told you: you could create an app which will play music from youtube or from WWW in the background. But developers don't do that, because this isn't a great idea - no matter which OS you use.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] roakes:
Hey all,

Currently I have a HTC Desire and previously a Hero. I love messing about with the ROMs especially when it comes to getting the latest Android release before HTC get around to applying Sense and releasing it (I prefer AOSP).

So I'm looking at the latest HTC devices and frankly they are uninspiring so I started looking elsewhere. The Sony Xperia Arc caught my eye hardware wise but I hear when it comes to custom ROMs etc. Sony has a habit of locking things down. So the other ones that caught my eye were the LG Optimus Black and Optimus 2X but I have no idea what their track record is like for allowing custom ROMs.

All in all I just want a phone that I can mess around with, what would you recommend?

Thanks

Russ
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Dirk:
I would keep the Desire until HTC release their first dual-core superphones. Hopefully the next Nexus will be made by HTC and will be running Ice-Cream, which is what i'm waiting for.
