VGA Hack worth it or not(poll) - JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General

So Dudes and Dudesses,
youve done the VGA Hack was it worth the aggro
P.S This is a poll ,not a pole so please do not girate upon it in a G string

of F*CK ITim sick of trying to edit this

I think it makes the Universal worth having - I just got a Hermes yesterday, and despite it being a beautiful device with feck small buttons, QVGA is too old school these days.
VGA will make you blind faster then the Victoria Secret's catalogue, but it looks beautiful. With careful tweaking it can be made usable for day to day work, but for remote desktop or PocketWord etc, it's great.

Hate you so much. Now I want a VGA device even more.
:wink:

Thats vijay555 mate,
He is a top fella but they say he has gills and two sets of knee's and can our run a 911

VGA mode is fantastic - I couldn't be without it.
I have it turned on all the time but find it mainly useful for:
Web Browsing and actually being able to see worth a damn
PocketPutty connections
Terminal Services

You think that's weird, you should see my table-arm attachment:
FYI - I'm working on a new app for the phone, to make it much better then VJBigPhone. One day some time, hopefully this year
But seriously, VGA is great technically and it's a real shame to use QVGA afterwards, but it is painfully small sometimes. But with appropriate UI tweaks, it can work very well.

anybody know if this is done yet.a buddy sent me in an email?
i like the look of this one much better than the HTC dialer. Someone please grab this of the phone...
yes!!!!!!!!!!!
i tried all kinds of dialer skins on my mogul but i just went back to the original cause they never worked right and i think the iphone skins look funny.but this is classy as hell imo.
good work...
looks classy......anyway to get it????
EXCELLENT! One of the geniuses really needs to get this off the Diamond. I think by far, this is one of the best stock skins I've seen.
ask the creators of Athena Project 4.0 to help you with it.
they are the ones who created the dialer(i think since its in their AP4.0 ROM)
I WANT I WANT I WANT!
Lol that really is tasty.
Yeah, it looks good
Id also like to be able to have that working on my Trinity!

Yes, yours is my second favorite dialer skin! Anyway maybe u could make one like the one posted above with all the other screens that go with it like missed calls, landscape, etc? If these pics above is the stock diamond dialer then it shouldnt be hard for our top developers on here to rip it and make it easily available to everyone on here.
Maybe you should check this one out:

Done nicely be a photoshop expert. Both spencepu3 and pauldgroot have done some nice skinning to this dialer!
Great work guys!
hahaha, I feel honoured xD
you called me an expert, I LOVE YOU
ok, enough spamming. spencepu3's dialer is nice too but he forgot to skin almost half of the dialer. E.g. when a key is pressed you will see the original iPhone skin again.
thats a vga dialer... just so you know
works on the athena cause of 5" screen

no 3G or video call?

Glazed VISTA

Still very much in the early stages but I thought I'd show it and see if there was any interest.

Thanks, performance wise so far it's good but I can only judge on the Emulator it's been built on. I expect on a phone it will be even better.
great, cant wait till its done
Very nice, I really like the Media page.
is it available for qvga???
Sry for my english, but i dont cant find the download.
Looks awesome but only on (W)VGA devices.
Unfortunately not really suitable for (W)QVGA.
Sascha
looks great!
Memory Used
realy NIce themes...keep it work
but i think Fuze/TP etc will able to used it bcoz i think this prog will eat our device Memory..
How about QVGA version?
when you release it?
I like this alot.. Hopefully all the screen real estate on the left side of the screen will be filled with sliding bars (launchers/task manager links) and other scolling madness.. I love the hidden docks in WAD.. Great concept even though its a little clunky and non responsive at times.
sweet! thats sexy as =D
i might have a closer look 2moz
but for now: does the startmenu hav the same options as the one on vista? because i LOVE that one XD
nice i love this skin
Looks AWSOME. If this runs smoothly on a QVGA im willing to test or whatever.

Thanks. The Media Player was something I really worked hard on It combines WAD2, WMP for movies and music, Nitrogen Player for MP3's, Resco radio and a TV section. There is no transition between each of the players so at all times it has the empression of being operated from within the one player a true,

Toshiba TG01 with new windows interface

Like other WVGA devices it looks like this interface will be specific to WVGA. Very limiting that is....o well it does look "very nice" lol

nice! today screen Clock with Seconds!
And i love the 1ghz processor xD
Check this video out at Mobile Crunch. I have to say Im not that impressed.
http://www.mobilecrunch.com/2009/02/03/toshiba-tg01-fondled-on-video/
Interface looks pretty great on the video presentation I saw. I'm wondering if the 'stipes' will get a bit stale after a bit of usage? Looks pretty fluid and I'm all about that in my preferred interface. (whichever flavor I'm in to at the moment.) Will be interesting to see what comes out of it for our various devices.
now that i saw the iphone size comparison on msmobiles.com, i beginning to lose interest. this thing is HUGE!
thats nice really

agreed, im on board
I like the settings GUI
But the Toshiba Stripes menu uses way to small buttons (especially for switching clock, calendar etc.)
Sascha
I want, hope they release it in the US too. the top could a bit smaller but I still want one.
it's not a windows interface, it's just like TF2D and TF3D it's over the windows OS.

i totally agree it seems to b point UI ..
With that 1gb processor ps2 games should be doable as long as it has proper video and 3d drivers this time around.
what's the word on availability date?
price?
markets? etc
it would be a really nice upgrade to my athena.
There is already a thread on this subject:

lol i smell and HTC lawsuit underway haha
yeah but you know, with a touchscreen only device, there is little left to imagination...
at least it has tri band 3g. htc really went awry in reducing the range of supported bands in their latest handsets
Actually, the acer has a cleaner square look to it...
I wonder if they have managed to gid rid of the annoying fingerprints issue, looks cleaner as galaxys said
yes, but it does have a proper stylus... the touchHD one gets pretty uncomfortable after a while.

Try and limit my time on stylus anyhow, don't use it to much to be honest unless and using file explorer or changing my registry

Curiosity, what apps do you have installed for keyboard, file exporer etc?
I use the stylus to write quite a bit as the recognition is much faster than I can input using fingerkeyboard2 etc. For serious remote terminal, i use my bluetooth folding keyboard but that doesn't get much use. The stylus was the winning feature for me, something else over the iphone and others. I also use remote desktops and having a pointer is priceless.
For the most part though, i'll admit i never use the stylus with day to day messaging, phone calling etc ... but is sooo handy to have.

So yeah - it's been a while since I've been in here... Been busy as all hell!

Theres certainly nothing wrong with a Hermes. I'm still using mine every day with R13.5 of my ROM. I still can't pick any major issues with it!
What is the latest ROM for Hermes?
Is CRC 13.5 WM6.1 latest?
Any WM 6.5 ROMs for Hermes? ......
I gotta agree, I had 3 Hermes (Dopod 838pro). 2 are still going strong though the keyboard is fading on one - some keys are hard to press. 1 got stolen!

Define latest?
13.5 is the latest release of MY ROM.
WM6.5 is pretty slow on the Hermes. You can only stretch old hardware so far....
