DREAMS of a better Polaris.

Polaris has potential, I know!
This is my first thread so don't go rough on me.
All this is about an idea, about a dream, about the future.
I wish there could be something we could all do to save our little Polaris's lives from the trash bin.
Wouldn't it be nice!?!
I suggest 5 things!
And i would need some hardcore programmers to be working on this..
Yes, for crying out loud, I am calling for Bepe, Olipro, Vivi, Udk, Pawel062, cmonex, misar, faria, tadzio, pof.. There are a lot of you guys. And really as far as I know you know what you are doing!
I am using Bepe's rom at the moment.. (bepe an update maybe?)
SO!!!!
YEA!!!
THE FOUR MAGICAL THINGS WE ALL NEED:
PROPER Graphics support - Coming in june with the Diamond i suppose.
Or if you are smart enough see how it
works in core player 1.2.4 and take it out.
PROPER Eased up system - I mean roms with all tweaks and tricks
+ make them empty, like totally empty!
PROPER List of applications - To show everything that is available for the
TC, Also more settings availability (up until
how big the application icons must be)
PROPER OVERCLOCK - What no one thought about this one?!?
PROPER Launcher - I have got one in mind, I can try to do it in
flash version, yet i'll need you guys to
program it for pocket PCs out there.
MAYBE THIS THREAD IS NEVER TO BE DISCOVERED
YET I BELIEVE THERE ARE LOADS OF OTHERS WHO
WANT TO START THE SAME THREAD!!!
Drivers+Easy System+Overclock= KILLING COOL EXPERIENCE
All the software choice, will help you decide what you really
want from the device.
I've got ideas.
I need help.
Post me a personal message to get my skype and other stuff.
Update: Changed the fonts.. not so big now..

Lot's of big fonts and requests from someone who doesn't appear to understand much about why his some of these requests can't be fulfilled.
Out of interest tcfanboy, how much cash are you willing to gift to people you've mentioned to do all this work for you?

I am not planning to sell this product, so there is no cash in this for me.
I am just saying i can contribute, i wish others could too..
I just like to have my device working, don't you?

don't be a pessimist.
I'm just tying to help.
If you don't like it, you can ignore it.
Big fonts are there to stand out. But yea i guess they are too big.
I know nothing about programming on a device such as a pocket pocket pc.
But i can program in pascal, delfi, and i am currently getting hold of c++..
I am not a lamer if that's what you are saying. I just need guidance.
Will you be of help?

People here are trying there best taking apart other devices and putting their codes into other. How about a new level?
how about writing the codes ourselves.
Just asking you if there is there a tutorial online? The one every beginner has read.

hey tcfanboy, thanks for the poll, u've got a point here but: u see all this work that the ppc wizes are doing is voluntary and asking them for stuff that they already know abt its not the best idea(my opinion). I'm sure they're doing their best to provide all of us with good roms and various improvements but they're not receiving any help from the company that was supposed to do all this work: HTC !
Anyway, HTC announced that they will release some sort of update in this month or next one for the devices with Q7xxx chips that will provide some sort of fix for the current issues but they didn't specify what exactly will the update do. And its not surprising considering they don't even admit they've got a problem with the video acceleration
I'm definitely looking forward to see your list of requests integrated in a rom and I'm sure sooner or later it will happen. Thanks to every1 working on any improvements!

according to an o2 germany insider at ppc-welt.info, there can not be software driver update, since this is software code on core-level, wich cant be solved by flashing a rom

there will be an update that fixes something that htc is not willing to tell in advance but it optimizes grafik performance
the hardware acceleration cant be activated afterwards, according to the o2 guy

i might be able to contribue with a ultra lite rom. i know i said i would release a new project rom but i want to mess more with a lite rom so will release a full and lite rom tommorow. if u all dont mind me removing almost everything like camera etc.. i can definatly get something really lite made.

acceleration can be turned on and off at any time. acceleration is nothing more than making dlls that turn on the acceleration and use it. manilla aka touchflo 3D is a example of acceleration in use. if u look at the dependencies of manilla then you will know the dlls needed for acceleration.

Manila runs on a quite different device though
The actual hardware could be disabled in the Polaris-generation through some sort of burning certain areas on the chip (some guy wrote about it in here a couple months ago) to physically destroy certain features. But giving effort to find out if that is the case by disassembling other ROMs is surely not the wrong thing to do! I guess I'll wait for some sort of fix or buy an Xperia if that one happens to arrive first

hey Pawel, if u'll integrate in your rom all the fixes and current improvements that vivi, pdaviet and udK have in their roms, it doesn't matter how lite the rom will be because we can always install on it the applications we want.

I don't know much abt wm platform but working in IT gives me a bit of a tech background and I'm learning fast, please correct me if I'm wrong but I think this video acceleration problem on Polaris is not easily achievable even with the dlls from Diamond because they are built for VGA and TC is using QVGA Right?

This is correct. But then again a driver is a driver and the resolution shouldnt play a role. nVidia drivers work for 1920x1200 as well as they do for some 1024x768 output... It could be different though for fixed resolution devices like our mobile devices are. We'll see, we'll see, or we might switch the hardware manufacturer...

Really? It looks like you're making so much promises both in Polaris Project, with the Glass ROM and now here.

thx
I am glad to get some Seniors here. Thx guys. I saw this post of all the htc programs..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=344544
Well.. you should add the program list of the programs in the original rom.
Downloadable links and light description of features.
Yea, I am a demandive person! Someone must be.
Btw, there is an excellent company which makes software with understandable interface. Well.. I did not necesserely buy their products.. But the name is Vito. So this is the interface which should be used. If interested in them ask me I'll provide a free link. I am from russia. It's legal here. )))

Polaris trasformed in Diamond

Is there any way to transform the Polaris exactly as the Diamond? all these roms available doesn't seem to do that!

If it was possible at the moment..to get polaris to be like diamond, I can assure you that this forum would have it.

Armando we will give you the benefit of the doubt since that was your first post.

Diamond runs at 520mhz and Polaris only at 400mhz. If everything could be ported then we would have an even slower Polaris. So the best is to have a fast look alike than a slow true fake. Don't you agree? Anyway you could try the pdamobiz roms with a flo3d replacement.

if you want a Diamond then go buy one.. gezzz you can't please everyone i guess.

Fish in Water Application for Touch Diamond

Hi,
A friend with an iphone showed me an application that got me well impressed..
The applications shows several different types of fish swimming in the water..
Taping the screen was like dipping your finger in water and shaking it..... quality sound and picture... this also made the fish scamper...
Is there a similar application for the HTC diamond? i know its totally useless but would be an awesome show-off application..
beany

That would be a very cool app.
An aquarium to "carry away" ;D

Thats already discussed under G-Sensor applications.. If someone could make something like it.. it would be cool

i remember seeing the sony xpedia demo... has a similar app...
when it launches hopefully someone can export the cab

This is what i so on the iphone:

Developers, we need you to make this??

i'ts actually an X1 home screen not just an app. The fish not only follow your touch on the screen, but also alert to notifications such as missed call's etc (if i remember correctly the fish changes colour to show missed calls / bluetooth on etc - but don't hold me to this)

Can developers actually create this for the HTC DIamond?

Of course they can! But they dont have this much time to play with useless applications guaranteed
But I still hope someone will make it :-9

This may be usefull when the diamond is in the craddle i think !

it just looks really good on the iphone....

i don't remember where from in the forum but i downloaded a very similar app.
i uploaded it for you or anybody else interested. this is not my application and i am sorry i can not remember who's, but here you have it
http://rapidshare.com/files/146610608/Flash_Ripple_Fish.zip

yeah, thats the one...
it needs improving though... but the foundations ARE there....
can a developer improve the interface, graphics, sound ETC ETC ...
can the app on the IPHONE work on the HTC?

I believe this video is made by someone of the P3D team. It was just a test if it would run and as i recall only the clock was working and not the rest. So i think touchflo 3d has to wait till the 3d drivers are finished.

Old vid; read the 3D topic. The sticky one.

Thanks at least some one see's what happened that is a huge thread and i found nothing mentioning touchflo3d from a quick scout

I'll be totally honest with the Diamond/Polaris thing...
I did want a Diamond way back, but because it was NOT available here in Honduras, i HAD to buy the Polaris...
At first i saw it,,, sluggish with no drivers, crap 3d, etc...
so i said,, "sigh *birds chirping in the background* one day i'll buy me a diamond...", then i remembered this page from when i was doing my HTC research on wether to buy one or not... so i came back ,and... well..
im here
and like i said in the 3D drivers thread:
DIAMOND AINT GOT NOTHIN' ON POLARIS.
'nuff said. (oh, by the way yes, thats a little period right...a bit more to the right...quite...there ^ )

the video dont show a full working manila 3d, relax guys. If it was fully working, dont you think the video would show us a bit more?
but ofcourse, its a step on the way

Me too, exactly: I had a Polaris, sold it, bought a Diamond, sold it, re-bought a Polaris.
Reason: Polaris is a PDA, Diamond a nice phone, nothing else

Also batista had a polaris, then a diamond and then a polaris again.

[Q] New HTC 3D Theme?

HI
i just saw the new HTC 3D phone, and must say the new sense is amazing!
is it possible to have that to the HD2? just look when they are scrolling through the homepages! amazing! i want that!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NYB2JK7s8rI
look at the end!

The uploader has not made this video available in your country.
Sorry about that.
Houston We have a problem.

lool , how would u make 3D on non 3D device simple impossible m8
And that home screens scrolling, that was implemented loong time ago in MIUI RoMs ( at least )maybe some other launchers can do that too. But I have a MIUI RoM for a while and all I can say I would not change for any other style. Well maybe if someone offer me a brand new phone for free with other style Android But still would change it back to MIUI for a while

It's good advertisement made by HTC. Unfortunately the effects of the 3D would not be that nice and crisply clear.
If you read this
http://www.engadget.com/2011/03/22/htc-evo-3d-first-hands-on/
you will discover that the 3D effect only work when the phone is facing you.. sad isn't??
won't work on the HD2 has the 3D effects requires a special screen specially designed for it. The screen on that phone has got also an higher resolution [qHD]
I mean the EVO 3D is a truly piece of art, so if it's available in your country go for it! I think it's the real successor to the King HD2.
however you can get the interface sense 2.1 without 3D effect on the HD2 easily.. just have a look to the NAND development
hope this helps
and remember it's not everything that shines is gold

Try to check this, thats the video about the same phone what he mean
HTC EVO 3D
