Hi guys,
I once found a website (maybe even on XDA-DEVELOPERS) with a bunch of tip'n'tricks on how to speed up tytn. Things like disabling the clicking sounds and the phone-dialing sounds, NOT disbleing the commMNGR and the battery meter on the bottom tray (which seems to slow the TYTN down).
I cant find the site now. Does any one know of it?
As a member, you should know how to use the "Search" function. I saw this thread somewhere in this forum. Please spend sometime searching the forum before you ask.
I did and I cant find it
Forums are for helping each other out right? Or criticizing one another? i forget...
Is this the site you are referring to? (make sure to scroll down past the first big post about benchmarks)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=320370
I came across that one yesterday and just re-hunted it down for ya. The disabling the alarm sounds really did "brutally" increase my phones speed. Hope thats the one you were lookin for. If not, good luck searchin. maybe Ill give it another go when I get home from work.
THANKS!!! Thats the one
You gotta love arrogance on the internet. I'm just great full for the site as a whole. Its been beyond helpful. So thank you everyone from he junior members all the way to the moderators.
Hello to all,
Just found this site and I'm really impressed! This is definitely what the internet is all about; the free exchange of ideas and spreading the love worldwide =)
I have a request for the GURUS; I am visually impaired and hate using the clumsy & cumbersome magnification tools available for WM6 (even mobile speak/mobile magnifier are booty at $90/each!).
My plan is to install Touch-it (how cool is that!!!!) and the other assorted goodies available for my new wing but was wondering if anyone has designed a theme for low vision/easy viewing?
To be honest I would be happy with larger, bolder fonts and easy to read coloration (black on white background or similar) can anyone recommend a theme or possibly help making one for me?
All help & suggestions are welcome, and links are great because searching through threads with my vision can be frustrating or near impossible at times.
Thanks to all & keep up the good work
Please forgive the jumbo text. Looking to make life easier.
I wanted to post since you've gotten 20+ views and no replys. Annoying when people read what you have to say and offer no insight.
I cruise a lot of the different app sites and forums; I haven't seen anything other than the large start menu mod that ttran implemented on a version of his open touch rom so far. You should post this up in the Herald Mobile 6 forum so that perhaps a cook or two might see this and have some ideas for you.
In the mean time, if I come across anything worthwhile, I'll dig the thread up and let you know.
Peace out
Cool deal,
I'll try over there and I'll check out the TTran mod =)
Hey everyone - now that many people are getting the HD (through the post, shop, stealing, whatever) I was wondering what programs that people are using.
If possible, please also state what the app does. eg;
Coreplayer - multiple-format video player.
Also, please post in Beards' topic with version numbers, screen resolutions, etc!

Yes there are. And if you take a little look around the forum you'll even find a thread dedicated to exactly that...
I looked through 3 pages fof topics... Though it's nice to see you post in all duplicated topics...

You can't miss it.... It's on the front page titled:- 'Programs/Utilites & Games ~ working on the Touch HD'

That tells us what programs work, not what the programs do and why people use them.
Different topics IMO. I'm interested in this thread.
Thank you for correcting my error constructivly, Beards. I don't venture out of BLACKSTONE or ELF, really. Will do, now.

The opening question clearly states:- "Ones that work well with the HD, that is."
What we don't want to end up having is two topics with members posting what works in this topic but not in the other ~ which after all is what the other topic is all about.

Your topic, as useful as it is for the elite, is also a big tease.
For example, I don't know what gsen is but I imagine i might want it! I guess I'll have to google.

Jon,
All you need do is go to the topic and ask......
Yes, the topic does list software titles working/not working but there's nothing wrong is posting anything specific about a specified program.
In fact I personally would recommend it.... The more information available is so much better.
Beards
This all stems from the fact software is a total mess on windows mobile - even looking at the biggest sites like clickgamer and handandgo none of them have support for the HD yet. As soon as microsoft bring out their software store the better - that's one thing apple got very very right with the iphone.

Couldn't agree more Jonathan.
At the moment it's a total minefield in ascertaining what does and does not work.
Beards
There, edited the first post. People can post in both topics. I think it would be interesting to see how many people, for example, used LunarTilt or that iPhone GUI - Beards, with your topic, if someone sees Coreplayer 2.5, they may not bother to list any other interesting apps they use.
Thanks for the link Acelister.
If I find anything of interst applicable for this topic I'll pass it back on to you.
Beards
one major problem and handicap windows mobile will have over the iphone.
The mobile osx is only one device (iphone), so it is a lot easier for developers to create and optimise software for the device, as for wm the developers have to think about the many different devices, thus full optimisation isnt really possible, that is why not all programs will run on all devices.
cor blimey - didn't mean to start anything off here, sorry!
The thread of http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=442663 is fantastic, and very much appreciated.
If I ever catch up with you guys who have been playing with WM for years, and come across an unlisted app that works, please be assured that I will add to it
However - as a noob, short of Googling each and every one of them to find out what they do (ok, some are pretty obvious!), I have no idea which fall into the categories of "kinda vital" through to "dead useful if you want to do something dead specific".
What I was really hoping for in this thread (and I guess supersquash in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=446128 and Philo25 in http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=445543) was a sort of 'starter for 10'.
Looks like between the various posts we're getting there though, so MANY thanks to everyone
Well I've never really gone out of my way to install anything on my Touch Elf, so this was pretty new to me too. I've been getting the hang of it though.
I've installed:
Advanced Config (changes various hidden options),
Capsure (screen capture utility),
Coreplayer (video player),
Klaxon (alarm),
Total commander (better than File Manager),
SPB Mobile Shell (makes the Today screen look completely different),
iFonz (makes the Today screen look like the iPhone).
Those are all easily found using Google.
Nice one Sir - good to see there's a few of us in the same boat!
sounds like a good starter list - now I just need to start Googling where to get these from...
LOL - wife's gonna love me for the next few weeks...
I'd best start earning some brownie points fast before the HD actually arrives

I hear that... "You've not stopped playing with that since you got it!"
I'm supposed to be spending time right now trying to get hold of a Nokia 7510 (yes, I know, but she likes it!) - and instead I'm on here downloading stuff for a handset that hasn't even arrived yet LOL
(shhhhh please )
Is there an XDA forum browser-type of app for the G1 that anyone's made?
If so, where can I find it?
Just curious because it's a bit taxing to have to open up Browser/Steel and navigate from there... I guess I'm just lazy though.
Mods, if this is in the wrong subforum I apologize, it seemed like it was in the right place to me
umm bookmarks? im happy my g1 has such a nice web browser.
I don't think one has been made yet, but I'll second the need for it. A site like XDA just isn't very readable when you have to pan multiple times to finish a sentence.
really? how do you have such a problem? i use the default browser or sometimes opera and its readable and speedy even on EDGE. do you have bad eyes?
A nice low/zero graphics forum skin would be good. That way it would work for the WM users too.
I'm sure there'll be one already out there for vbulletin.
Probably not for the development section though, this topic.

i have the browser autofit and its ok, but the links on the top i have to pan acrossed, plus clicking search and your notifications has posed issues for me in the past, xdas forum isnt 100% g1 browser friendly at the moment, so some small app to browse xdas threads would be great, especially if it listed the threads kind of like when in the market you see different sections there for different types of apps, have the different android threads, and then in there be able to scroll down and maybe even have the app notify you via the notification bar of a new post rather than via email, just an idea
i definately agree with an app for this
wouldn't the site itself have to make a mobile specific version like many sites do for the iphone (and the G1 sometimes)?

Hey! thats on reason why this is my favorite forum software.
PDA
Post this in the apps and games section. This is the development section.
Anyway we can just expand on the PDA forum view?
PDA View
I've set up a mobile version of AndroidClubhouse. It automatically detects when someone accesses the forums through a mobile device, and defaults them top a special mobile template.....its not perfect, but it works much better than trying to scroll a full forum.. If A mod or Admin from XDA wants to hit me up, I'll link them what they need to make a G1 friendly version.
Once again, sorry mods for making the job more of a hassle and putting it in the wrong subforum
I only have Edge where I live so the browser takes a while to load up, it takes longer to pan around and such and you can't really use the browser very well if you only have one hand available (a lot of my texting/emailing/browsing takes place while I walk) but then again that's just me.
If you're going on the site from the browser though, you have to type it in the address bar or go to bookmarks and click on it. For us lazy people, it would be easier to just click to open an app and you're already there. Lol
Hi, I am working on a new site with some of my buds...
Since we all have HD2's lol we will start here. The plan for this site is to help you with your android hacking. Like I said we will start with the HD2 for right now but eventually expand a whole lot. We want to have Android latest news and phones, help the community out. Maybe have forums eventually for other android devices in the future. Who knows where this idea will take us, but we want to focus on helping out the community. In no way we will be competing with XDA, but for Newbies is not easy reading thru all these phorums; or they are just lazy lol. We currently have a writer, graphic designer and a Mod freak to start things off. We want to know what you guys think, feel free to discuss and overall: What would you like to see on the site?
The site shall be called WWW.ANDROID4LIFE.COM and it goes live real on 3-1-11
You can preview the site now! Here: http://www.wix.com/casademipadre777/android4life

Thank you!
Very good site. Fantastic for beginners. Layout is easy to see and format throughout is good. Continuity also good.
One thing I will mention is that the transition effects between pages may be a burden for some older legacy computers and people running a a poor connection. Perhaps having a feature to avoid this would be good.
Good work man

Thanks. I'm glad you like the concept, and you are right... Pure Html sites are better but they lack on data stability, which is why we are using more flash sites. Besides they are more simple and I am a flash freek lol. This site is more for our generation and you need a good internet connection jaja! But we do have a link to update your browser flash player, we hope that helps some people. I really appreciate your feedback and trust me your suggestion is kept
it appears like its a NAND flashing method you are building here
you should specify that, as we know the other method is via SDCard in Winmo 6.5
also you should highlight the importance of the very basic and foremost first step of all
flashing HSPL3 (2.08HSPL)
then, MAGLDR
then everything else follows.
just my polite suggestion, very nice website BTW

Thanks jigners, we are thinking of adding a seperate tab for the SD Method for those that follow. But you got it right we are Emphasizing the Nand method. We will talk about this in the Video Tutorials along with all these major important steps, thanks!
Asshhhh.
Oeh, ok i try start at first things. It will be hard for you to understand but i give my best.
Never ever dont think this way - i have new and good pc (laptop, tab or smartphone) and my friends have too. So i create website, fun yes.
Real life is other. 65% people use older pc-s. Even more, think if someone goes to this site with hd2 and winmo, what and how he then see this page. This ugly and today outstanding flash IS NOT good way make good website. I'm serious.
REMAKE IT NOW.
About design.
I liked it. Littlebit mottled but not hurt everyone.
Site visitors counter today also out. Just place it bottom and hide for itself only.
I recommend to you get better some php based cms and attach your design. Then your site will be gotten on fly. With hd2 winmo and 3G. As you want bring beginners to site.
And one hint more. Think again about site content and main idea. Why? Week ago i seen on HTC site HD2, today not.
I dont want claim or blame you. Just these opinions i got whe i looked to this site. I thinked itself many times that hd2 needs some special site for helping xda devs work better and not waste time for threads named like these examples just gotted at this forum: [Q]Help needed Please, problems, HELP!

I understood some and thanks, we will work on making a back up for those that use older pc's lol. Thanks for the tips too, the datat that flash sites produce is awesome. The "visitor counter" feature that you mentioned is built in on the url as soon as you click it, the features of flash sites. We certantly want this to help people and make it easier to see, thanks... I hope we don't become like that site that you mentioned, that just disapeared lol...

In "Download" page you put only NAND builds. I think, links to some modern SD builds also must be present on download page.
