is there a software that flips the desktop 90 degrees?
A lot of software would become more usable e.g. Excel, IE etc.
Thanks
JS Landscape, Nyditot. But I didn't test these softwares on the XDA II...

Back your **** up prior to installing any funky software Bro.
Last time I installed JS Landscape, it ****ed up my XDAI.
Try it before you buy it:wink:
Peace and more peace.
On XDA II:
JsLandscape does not work. They are working on a new version for PPC2003. It will freeze your device and you will need a HARD RESET.
NyDitot on the other hand works OK, but do NOT use the shortcuts it creates in the programs menu. (One of them is called reset or restore something) and will freeze your device so that you need a HARD RESET.
However, if you just use the icon it creates in the settings menu, it works fine.
Where can you get "NyDitot"? I can downlaod it from the website but you need a regisration code, which you seem to get only get if you recieved "NyDitot" as part of a bundle software.
Doh, forget my last... found that you can buy it online, or even try it for free at www.download.com
NyDitot (downloaded two 3 weeks ago) locked up my Qtek 2020 - had to hard reset. Be careful....
Osandlan,
thanks, I did have a few problems running it, froze a few times, was only a trial version so I have deleted it now...
im using nyditot v3.22 on my xda running wm2003 v4.01.00 and it works fine for me i use it on 360x480 landscape and its wicked for the internet
i put it on max res and the buttons were too small to use the stylus lol
I'm using the latest version nyditot on my XDA II without any problems, but it's always wise to perform a backup before installing anything: I've had a lot of hard resets through software on the XDAII, far more than on the XDAI.

Warning, do not use. It did not work on my i-mate with Dangaard 1.60.21 ROM installed. After I tried to change to landscape I had to hard-reset.

Do not use what exactly??????
the dotpocket program. DO NOT USE IT. IT REQUIRED A HARD RESET.
I've just found that Chris @ WisbarAdvance (www.lakeridgesoftware.com) has created a plugin that makes WM5 into ablank desktop on which u can do anything. It's awesome, and seems stable on my JasJar (no alarm failures etc). Some kelw features:
- Different landscape vs portrait themes (so no cut-off images)
- Remove soft buttons on today screen
- shortcuts
- virtual screens and popups of shortcuts
- text meters and graphic meters
Basically anything that any other plugin offers!
Check it out.
Checked on the lakeridge website and couldn't find it- whereabouts is it?
Thanks,
Fin
This site states it is NOT compatable with windows mobile 5.0

anyone got a link to wad 0.7? for wm5 ?

lakeridge forums are back up now!
it works, but as you begin using it, you'll find out that your Universal will become EXTREMELY slow.
This is a known issue for WM5 and Universal, so a new update has to come out.

Are you referring to the 2.4.1.11 beta or shipping version when you say it is very slow ?
I installed the software but it made my device slower than ever.
I uninstalled it, and my device is OK now.
I'm using GSPocketMagic Ver 1.32.18, it's the only program which does not affect the speed of Jasjar and does all functions I need to close the running programs. It really made using my Jasjar is much better, easier, and faster.

Is It just me?
Hi,
-Went to WAD forums, dl'd RC6 and even RC5 beta of WAD, WM5 .Cab...
-dl'd from JJ incidentally
-installed CAB from File Explorer
-Install deemed "successful" after CAB ran.
-Soft reset and the whole 9 yards (ie: double checked today screen settings) and see no aesthetic change to Today Screen's look, and some ambiguous WAD folder in Programs.
Advice much appreciated Dudes.
Thank U!
I'm having problems with this too... I just get a blank desktop and it won't load any of the skins I've downloaded to work with it...
Pah.
lol
haha
you need a full version of wisbar advanced!! then you can add the the WAD plugin ;o) worked fine for me..
only problem is that wisbar advance is not wm5 optimized.. it slows the Universal down!!!
so better leave it.. and wait for optimized wm5 software!!
Don;t agree. JJ is just as fast as it was after hard reset and GPMagic++ - EXCEPT that portrait-landscape change is VERY slow - 8 seconds vs 1.5. That's cos it loads a WHOLE new theme and skin - a penalty I'm happy to live with for all the otehr benefits - cascading menu, awesome desktop capabilities, original task management, awesome skinning, etc etc.
hmm
remove it all and reset your device and notice how much faster the universal is.. even if you just stay in landscape mode.
i removed all sbsh software and also pocketbreeze and my universal is 20 times faster.
if you don't mind the lagg when changing from landscape to portrait ok, but the menu and all other programs do behave slower too.
When i flip my screen to landscape it now changes instantly.. have to say i use checknotifications. ;o)
just hoping for a great update soon, or else i sell my mda pro to someone here in holland for 600 euros and wait for version 2 LOL
I agree, Wisbar Advance does slow down the device. No wonder, all this graphic wealth has to come at a cost: resources!

Both.
See what DVL mentions. He's 100% correct. We have to wait for a new BETA to come out or be very patient with your Universal. :lol:
Hi
I succeeded to install PN on JJ but the two menu screen are HUGE
Ther should be a way (something to do with OZVGA) to make those 2 screen normal
Anyone ?
Raphael
use Tweaks2k2 to force the Destinator to start in VGA mode (VGA brute force option) this will solve your problem.
Wolfgang
Universal and destinator
I have uses tweaks2k2 to brute force vga and certainly it has made destinator very usable. However, fonts on the main screen are quite small and the bar that is meant to be at the bottom is in the middle of the screen. Also the zoom slide is not on the right hand side. Overall it is as if one cannot zoom in as much as you can when it is working perfectly.
Has anyone overcome these problems? Is it the case that with ozVga these could be overcome?
Thanks, apap
apap,
you have to change the file Destinator.inf (located in \DestinatorApps\Destinator\Common\Interface\Visual\All\)
I'll attach the file I'm using. Be aware it's for VGA mode and only in Landscape mode.
Just give it a try.
Wolfgang
Please reńame the file to Destinator.inf
Wolfgang thanx,
I tried your inf file. It did put the bar closer to the bottom. However, the font remain small and I cannot find the buttons or scroll bar. Any suggestions?
apap
Well I have a suggestion because I had exactly the same problem:
Actually,without any VGA hack,the only thing you cannot do is access a few options in the main menu,options etc...
SO what I have done is switching to VGA mode ,changing the options I need and then switching back to normal mode where screen is Okay and the main options (adress,poi,contacts) are accesible for current work.
Thanks, I will try this, but the problem tha I remember having in non-VGA mode is that when I turn to the page for inputting addresses and accessing other settings the buttons are huge. Anyway, I will try this and get back to you.
Cheers, apap
It works! Thanks again. Keep us posted on any new developments.
Guys
Here's a link to a german patch for destinator.
When you install it fixes the layout problems but also installs a german cab file.
If you then run the updated program it does run in german but you can change the language back to english.
Enjoy!!

Personally I preferred the english huge buttons.... :lol:

Can anyone rewrite the cab - I mean i´m german and i´m useing a german rom and the the cab install will install everything on storage card - but in german system its called Speicherkarte.. Can anyone help
I tried this last night, and had nothing but problems, had no responce from the screen, it worked once, and i will admit that it looked very nice.
it just stopped responding, i couldnt even get into the settings or file explorer to remove the WAD or WA from startup folder.
in the end i had to hold the windows and ok hard keys on my touch cruise to reset the damn thing.
I would suggest you back everything up if you try these cab's.
good luck, i hope you all have more luck than me.
WAD2 is still in RC form...there are still bugs that are being worked out till a final release.

That sounds bad...
I hope someone makes it multilangual....
I tried it on my Orbit 2 ..Works really well and responsive...like the animated gesture transitions...(imho its the fastest diamond theme available)
I just installed the deskop not the taskbar thing(don't like it)
Very configurable....still playing with it...
This is a good UI, and very good theme. I have very much enjoyed converting this them to work on the 320x 320 platform. I think you will see many more using the WAD2 in the near future as it is very flexible and quite responsive and not a memory hog.
Jdume I posted a message on the WAD forum you can respond there or here whichever is more convenient.
i used to use WAD for getting the vista theme on my device, really need to get into it again, cos i think probably did something wrong.
i might try again in a few weeks when i have some more spare time, does the diamond theme have any cool transitions? i mean close to the original thing, i heard months ago that WAD2 was next gen. and that would support such transitions.

Hi bobsbbq what programs did you use to convert it to 320x320.
I like to convert it to vga (atleast try) so any help is appriciated.
Greetings Gentox.
I just posted a blog entry about my experience with RealVGA and 320x320 mode on the Treo Pro. Check it out at: http://nebowiki.blogspot.com/2008/11/treo-pro-320x320-love.html
I am curious about the experience of others?
Screenshots? Anyone?
I will try and put some screenshots together tomorrow. I have been running RealVGA at 96dpi for nearly a month now and have *never* switched back to 128dpi since installing it. The only faults I notice are the lack of icons for SMS messages in the threaded view and the compacted battery icon - neither of which bother me significantly. frankly, I think the rom should run at this reolution as stock - and as soon as we can cook up a rom I will strip out of it all the 128dpi stuff!
John
I'm running it for weeks now, really like it. The fonts may be too small for some, but I certainly appreciate it.
A few weeks on RealVGA for me too. Never need to change from 96dpi back to 128dpi. In fact 96dpi full 320x320 allows me to easily run apps that have problem with 240x240 mode.
Real VGA here as well. The Best. I wont go back.
Could anyone post any piccys of their pros running the 96dpi?
Thanks
Some screenshots
Hi folks,
A couple of screenshots of 96dpi on a Treo Pro just to show you what it looks like. If anyone wants a particular view showing, just ask.
John
Thanks John
I guess i have to be a problem child. its not working so well for me. a lot of things are messed up, images, background, phone dialer, etc. not so great on my end.

Using 96dpi, it's needed to get Olivetree's Biblereader to display icons on the taskbars correctly, along with some of the fonts.
Also needed @ 96dpi for Mobile Shell 2.1 or 2.11 to use the Omnia or Experia themes (found in the square screen themes thread at ppcgeeks.com). They go offscreen otherwise.
Yes, fonts in some places begin to become uncomfortably small. But, in most instances, it's not a problem. However button placement display gets off center with comm manager, especially the data connection on/off setting.
You can of course slide the font size a notch up, that will make most text a bit larger while keeping the 320 resolution. Not perfect, but perhaps for some a better compromise?

I've been running the RealVGa at 96dpi for a week. I've noticed that the icon for the threaded sms is missing. I can only see a "x" at the icon location. Is anyone able to share some view how i can change the icon back to normal?
Also another thing that i notice for is the view of the dialer is a bit shorter than the screen. Therefore, you can see a line of the background when you on the dialer.
Another weird things that i notice when running RealVga is that, when u dialed an unknown number, after the call, a notice will pop up and ask you whether you want to save the no. You will NOT be able to save the no. from there. Have tried that many times and gave up
Have hard reset and use back the original config. Evertthing went back normal. But just TOO BIG. I just wish that the original config will come with an option for us to choose between 128 and 96 dpi. .... 96 dpi still the best view for my treo pro
I use RealVGA with lot of pleasure on my Treo Pro, here
For now, i would like only replace the icon in the threaded sms, like i did for the battery icon. Maybe in the windows folder ...

Works fine on my Pro, except it's very small & my eyes aren't that young, anymore. Because of that, I installed CMKeyboard & a couple of htctoucher's skins from right here on xda.
If you're having issues with RealVGA, are you using the latest version by Ebag333? It can be found here: http://discussion.treocentral.com/showthread.php?t=170002 on TreoCentral. If you're using an earlier version, change to 128dpi before doing anything else, so that you're at "normal" resolution. The newer version uses Mortscript & it's suggested to install after a hard reset.

I'll have to look at Resco Keyboard. I like other products by them (file manager & registry tool).
AFAIK, some of the versions between 2.1 & 2.14 are OK with 96dpi.
