.net

has anyone tried .net 3.5 ob their Vogue ?

anyone state if it works ?

Yes, I have it. Yes, it works for software which requires it. However, it also causes other software to stop working. An example is E-Sword, mentioned in the thread asking about Bible software. If you have a program you want to use which states it requires 3.5, you can only hope it does not have a conflict with your other software. At this point I would not load it if you don't have to.

.net 3.5 actually speeds up most day to day tasks. you can have both 3.5 and 2.0 installed so there should be no problems....i have only 3.5 installed on mine and have had no problems.

I also have both 2 and 3.5 installed on my Vogue, and while there shouldn't be any problems, there are. As I said, you can install 3.5, and then if you do have a conflict, make the decision as to whether 3.5 or the program that no longer works is more important to you.

do you know which one is set as your default?

same question for me ?

You can find the current .NET setting in the registry, or you can use the .NET Config from modaco.

Anybody give this a try yet. I'd like to know if anyone finds it useful before I start developing new features.
Cheers,
Ken

I can test it for you!
Hello,
I found your little app quite interesting, seems simple and intuitive.
I will test it, and give it a try for my next poker tournament. =)
I'll come back to you to give you my appreciation / comments.
Thanks for your good work!

I'd love to try it out, but as with the user above, my diamond runs at vga.
Would really love to see a vga version, as this is one of the apps ive really wanted for my phone.
Thanks for your contribution!

Screen Orientation

The one thing that irks me the most about my Imagio is that the screen will only go to landscape for the camera, the VCAST TV, and the Internet Browsers. With anything else only portrait is available. I would really love to be able to make it go landscape for other programs. I have found a couple of free routines that will set the phone to do this but they won't work because the Net Framework on the phone is the wrong version (go figure an older version of Framework would be placed in the most up to date version of windows). Can anyone tell me what is the best routine that will allow me to toggle landscape mode at will on the Imagio?

or just download the new .net framework

Thank you so much. I'll try what was listed. Does anyone know why the latest .NET CF isn't installed in Win Mo 6.5? Why would Microsoft not have the latest in the latest OS?

I have 3.5 installed on mine and I'm using Gyrator 2 to rotate my screens around
Great plugin

Well I followed the instructions for editing the registry and changing the orientation for the TF3D screens works great. Now what about the other programs such as Word and Excel? Do I have to do all the same registry edits for those or only part of the edits? Thanks for all the help guys. I'm about to get the phone the way I like it.

Was 3.5 already installed on your device when you bought it or did you have to install it? How do I find out what version of .Net CF is install on the phone?

I don't know what version I had

I found by using gyrator and changescreen for screen rotation is buggy, slow, and sometimes pages seem to get scrambled. I don't need rotation in all apps that's why I installed g trigger, available here. I have it set up to jerk the phone from side to side and this toggles screen orientation. I also set it up to have the dialer come up when you flick the phone forward and to close programs when you flick it away. It really works great, no crashing. And there are no accidental orientation change. Not to mention it saves you the "phone" softkey and you don't have to try to hit the "X" in the corner anymore. Try it, it is a cab install, and removes completely if you don't like it.

Perfect way to set up my Touch HD? Trying to play Pokemon

Excuse me, I've tried multiple times with varying degrees of incomplete success to play Pokemon on my HD.
Graphical Performance is the issue and brings me here to ask for the best combination of Rom/Tweaks etc so I can have the best working HD ready to tackle the problem.
I also do not know how to access the registry* to perform registry hacks but please do mention such hacks as I just can't sift through every thing available on the internet (have tried for 2 days) just to find a working combination of hacks and mods and roms.
I also need to know what will be needed to be installed to correctly play Pokemon in full landscape mode with an invisible gamepad overlay in Morphgear.
Is there a better gameboy advanced emulator than Morphgear, if so please mention.
Thank You.
*I tried Total Commander but couldn't find the registry location with it exactly.

Hi Connor,
To make Pokemon work with the Touch HD, as you mentioned you do use the MorphGear emulator. I'm not sure if there is a better emulator or if it can be used in landscape mode...
To use MorphGear, simply download the program and install it with some modules (here).
Note: The modules are .cab files, transfer them on the HD and install.
Then download a good skin for gamepad like this. Now just transfer some ROMs (http://www.rom-freaks.net/) on your HD and load them with MorphGear.
To access the Registry, using your file explorer (Total Commander) go to the Windows directory and locate and open a file called RegEdit.lnk (i.e. registry editor).
By the way, are you using Stock ROM? just thought i'd mention that many cooks (people who make custom ROMs) also incorporate these 3rd party tweaking tools into their custom ROM releases. For example, the one i'm currently using (XannyTech Grid Evo 1.7C) has a Tweaks directory containing applications like 'Advanced config', 'HD Settings Tool', 'Registry Editor', etc by default. If you want to install these individually, then again search the forum for these. Another few i know of are called 'HD Tweak' and 'SKTools', which allow you to tweak and optimise your HD further.
You can also check out this article i came across for information on other tweaks: http://ec30.com/category/utilities
I hope this helps you out.
Regards.

Thanks that does help to give me a single source of tweaks to draw from.
Hope none of them should conflict and become redundant.
Any other tweaks helpful to performance are still welcome.
Now, about the ROM, which windows mobile/manilla combination should I use? Apparently 6.5.3 performs worse than 6.5.1? Does it? I do use custom ROMS, right now I'm on... Miri's 6.5? Premium Rom. Don't know if I should have chosen Premium but the next option down didn't feature Touch Flo.
Does anyone know how he has an invisible landscape overlay:

(you should probably turn off the sound)
Thanks for your help.

No problem at all mate. I would suggest that you read this thread, it gives you information on the latest builds and what they each offer in terms of stability and performance.
You can maybe consider Topix ROMs - they are generally quite fast as they are kept as close to stock. I know that Topix 3.2 has been benchmarked in this (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=516190) thread - and yes: It's slower than 6.1 Topix. Still, 3.2 is one of the fastest 6.5 ROMs I've encountered - and the benchmarks do not necessarily represent your experience: For me, the latest Topix ROM seems almost as smooth and fast as the older ones! The difference is only minor! Especially since Kwbr uses Manila 2.1: The ROMs using the newer version of TouchFLO off of the HTC HD2 (Leo), Manila 2.5, have been known to run slower... but that's understandable as they were intended for use on the HTC Touch HD2, which is more superior than the Touch HD with more processing power, etc.
I currently use 28014 build (6.5.3) and in my opinion, I think its quite fast. I would reccommend you try out the same version as I currently use, if not satisfied, then try out Topix.
Regards.

If you're having graphical performance issues you could try a wm6.1 rom as in general they'd be faster than 6.5. I tried Dutty 3.9XT for awhile and liked it, it's very simple without a lot of extra things added. I've also tried EnergyRom (both 6.1 and 6.5 versions) and they were both very fast.

BsB Tweaks - .net Framework and my work mobile

I have the Touch HD for work and have started to 'expand on it'
obviously taking things slowly as don't want to brick it and have to explain what I've been up to.
1)
Started with BSB Tweaks, however this says I need to update my Microsoft dot net compact framework.
My question is what version should or can I go to?
2)
I have installed Opera 10, how do I link it through to the the icon on the horizontal menu on the HTC homepage? This still goes through to the old Opera9
Thanks

Ok have answered Question 1
Any ideas on Question 2?
