Hey Vijay!

I think I remember that you posted a screenshot of several programms running on a Universal, each in individual windows, like on a real desktop. Now I can't find that post anymore. Did I just dream it, or are you really working on that? Is you are, what the status? Is anything available for testing yet?

Rapax!
Yes, you dreamed it. I was walking back home yesterday and was worrying that I'm dreaming in c++. I started thinking that this must be the Matrix or something - you know that feeling when you're dreaming along, driving your Bentley GT Coupe

and suddenly wake up to the reality of Buzz's car:
Well I was having that feeling - did I really write VJSihaya or just dream it? I'm so often delirious from a lack of sleep, I'm sure I'm just going to wake up with a buggy version of VJPong or something instead :shock:
The app is called VJSihaya. As the name implies (read the thread for why it's called what it is), it's a long term ambition rather than anything immediate. The windowing system itself is pretty much done, just tweaking and playing with new skins. Although I've promised not to write further code on it until I've bugfixed some old apps, yesterday on a whim I incorporated Today plugins, so you can have windowed Today items (eg a copy of weather panel to open and close as required, a floating Calendar plugin etc) which will turn into hopefully a Today replacement. New screenshots soon.
The next stage is a full desktop replacement (easy! I write those for breakfast ) Once the rough code is in place and functional, I'll then refine to provide an open skin support etc. But this all in a galaxy far far away yet. Three guys are playing with the windowing system preview to get some feedback which will be incorporated.
VJSihaya might just not happen at all, there's a lot of code that I think is beyond me, and it'll be a learning experience. But, who knows. I hope I can get it out, because I think it looks cool, even if it's ultimately useless. And we wouldn't have $1000 phones if we didn't want to show off, eh :wink:
V

LOL @ V
excellent!

You need to get some sleep vijay!

Awesome!
It looks grand. I see you mentioned that you currently don't need any testers, so I won't pester you about that. But I do hope that someday you'll release a finished (or even just fairly finished) version. My Boss has a pretty little Sharp Zaurus, and likes showing of with his pdaXrom --> http://www.pdaxrom.org/screenshots.php?menuid=2. With VJSihaya, I'd have a mighty weapon in the showing off contest (And your absolutely right that it's just for showing off, but thats half the fun, isn't it?)

Hey Vijay
How do you know this is not a looooooo :lol: oooooong dream-?????
and your not really this crazy but have a sane simple life with no stresses and the worlds a peace full place-
dam i think i need some sleep!
lol

V

Hey VJ.
Really nice work....appreciated by your greeeeeeeeeeeat effort on making our Universal running amazingly.
However, I do think you should get more rest..you know, stress ain't no good
Good Luck
Cheers
Julius

Yeh, I'm still awake on 10 hours sleep in 3 days.
I'm starting to worry... but doing some nice work on VJOkButt - thumb friendly reminders are back.
Going to finish that in a moment and then finally get some rest. Thank God it's Sunday
V

All I'll say is that VJSihaya is something I'd actually consider paying for.
BTW Vijay, you wanted a cpy of my ROM didn't you? If you want to meet up in London sometime and take a copy off my phone that's cool.

Riceburner: I've promised that I wouldn't work on VJSihaya until I finish some bug work on older apps, and I've spent the last week or so, when I've not been working at the office, doing that. New release of VJOkButt hopefully tonight. Some other stuff shortly after that.
I've spent a HUGE amount of time doing R&D on stuff you won't see immediate benefits of, but when they come, they come. I had the camera flash hack 99% done for quite a while, but one breakthrough made it happen.
I miss working on VJSihaya. I've got so many ideas for it...
Ok: Riceburner I would love to meet up. You've got a universal right? Why did I want a copy of your ROM? Can't remember, but I spent MANY horrible hours yesterday decompiling Roms for devices I've never heard of (MPX300?!) to try and work on cross compatibilty for the torch app. So I think I've got a Universal rom, but remind me why I asked for it?
Anyway, even if I don't need the ROM, I'm in Central London (near St Pauls) if anyone wants to join me for a coke, coffee, Ball and Biscuit etc.

Where are all of the Android Skins?

I figured someone would have created some by now.

its kinda ugly in my opinion

I'd personally like to see one.

i dont think anyone cares.. I think its kinda ugly.. the phones ugly too..
the only cool thing is that you can move the icons anywhere you want.. other than that.. its meh..

why not judge the final product when it's done, not in the state it's currently in...

pff, already looks much better that any wm6 version i ever saw even with interfaces like mannilla 2d winterface pointui spb ms wad 3 ore anything like that!

Hey,
I would also like to see an Android Skin.
I like it, and its really nicer than WM, it looks like a fingerTouchOS.
Maybe we'll get a skin anytime.
greets doena

Cant be too hard to skin in Throttle Launcher, especially since the next version will support scrolling both vertically and horizontally and with support of panels and on screen object movement.

what i think was meant by the TL post is that the new version is going to have moveable widgets.
and honestly .. the way we do the skinning, application dev and hacking, and everything else is done around here..
we can do it.
the device thus far imo looks like a piece o chit!

the device is ugly and the skin itself is just a white topbar, a wallpaper and some icons, can be done with every app here.

Here is my skinned Android. Hope you like it!

egz whats the batt life on it?

I'd like to put here on snooze!

what i like to see now is some Android inspired apps.. i'm quite sick now of pseudo-iPhone apps (well, excluding A_Cs S2 lineup that is)..
how about an application such like the Android drop down notifications.. it's totally replace the bubble notification icon when you have more than 1 notification.. and it's easier to access than pressing that darn icon on the topbar..
it's pretty handy, if you ask me.. i hope someone develops something like that..
here's a video demo of what i am talking about..
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hy-YcGNyJds

I'm a big for on Android (I just ordered my G1 from T-Mobile), but I odn't think there's much to the user interface. The Standard interface can be completely customized so I'm sure we'll see quite a few variations once people actualy get their hands on it. Personally, I'd like to see a TouchFLO 3D type of interface on Andoid which will give access to a lot more information than simply having a desktop with a few widgets and icons on it.
If you're really interested in creating somehting like this, my suggestino would be to do it with Wisbar Advance Desktop. You can quite easily create the look, but it might feel a bit static since it's hard go get thing animated with it.

I believe this is a better Android Skin...!!!!

Better than to have just a simple skin of Android, would be to have the complete OS in our HTC devices!
That would be nice!hope someone is working on that
Cheers

Once they release the source to Android in October and more devices start coming out, I think Android is going to be hard to beat. I bet people will start skinning it right away. It has so much potential.

Almost all that android (the one in the first post ) does will be possible to do with next version of ThrottleLauncher:
- Scrolling footer.
- Widgets.
- Scrolling programs.
- Scrolling contacts.
I don't know if a miss something .
I plan to end a private beta during this week, and it the beta testing goes allright I plan to release it as "unstable build" publically so pleople can start messing with the new features .
I look forward an android skin too . When I'm ended developing this new release I'll gladly help anyone trying to develop a theme for throttle.

[APP] [WIP] [CONCEPT] Google Talk Widget

ok so i got a bit bored doing my Law Case Study so i quickly chucked together this Google talk widget concept.
its very much in the zune/windows phone 7 look but at the same time i tried to make it match the new gingerbread colours and be comprised of very minimal elements to make it easier for people who like to skin things
in my mind it works very simply, the bottom displays a series of dots each dot represents a contact to switch between contacts you simply swipe left / right along the contacts gmail at the bottom (localised swipe to prevent issues with home screens).
you type in the top box black represents incomming the grey / white represents outgoing. green dot is obviously status (contemplating making contact dots at bottom represent status colours to)

You're great, just gave me an idea of how to put live tiles without getting smacked by M$. Why don't you join my project for good?

well if you would like to put me down as a designer you can , but that's about as far as my usefulness will probably go on your project as there is no way id be able to code anything for a very very long time.
ideally i would like a code partner lol so i could design blah blah they can make it work then we can split market profit LOL!, ahh dreams

You can start designing for the dialer application. MDPI and HDPI must be done. Just tell me when you're done.

Omg that looks awesome. I was hoping someone could FINALLY make a gTalk widget of some sort considering it's my primary mode of communication.
Hopefully something arises from your concept. Will be monitoring and donating if something like this would come to fruition.

Wow, this would be awesome, one of the few apps that I'd actually pay a couple of quid for (as long as it was relatively bug free).
Times like this I wish I could code, would love to see this.

I'd love it too. Really raises questions as to why one isn't included in stock..

wow this widget would be badass.....
ill keep an eye out for it in the future
if only I knew coding id be happy to help..
let me know if you need any testers

Looks like a great concept, id love to test for it.

any progress???

Sounds great, I'll test as I have no experience coding.

It will require the gtalk app to be hacked and a new api must be used to bring up the keyboard on homescreen and send typed letters/words to the widget.
btw: swiping left/right for changing contact won't work, it probably have to be implemented with two buttons.
And: The conversation list will probably have to grow from bottom to top so you can see what you are typing..
this widget is really needed ^_^

As a real Android AppWidget, this seems quite impossible.
Read the docs and you'll see how limited android app widgets are.
It is possible to integrate it in a launcher's code directly, and I would love to see it somewhere eventually. Nice design

And?
Scrollable widgets have also been impossible until developers agreed on a proprietary scrollable widgets api.

I'd love to see some sort of popup rather than a widget. If you're already going to press home and scroll over to a widget to check/send messages, it isn't much more work to just open the app. But if you could make some sort of popup that could come up over any part of the screen, that would be much less work and actually be useful.

[APP] FlipFeeds: Flipboard 'esq reader for all Android Devices. Complete it?

Hi all,
I have been working on an HTML5 based reader similar to Flipboard that would work in Android, iPad, Windows 8, etc. However, with news that Flipboard will be releasing to Android this year, I'm debating on if it's worth my time to finish. A few things of note:
It's powered by google reader
It actually has a better image grabbing engine that FB for image detection
Around 32 page layouts thus far
Scales areas and fonts dynamically to fit any resolution tablet/screen
Grabs the first few pages, then keeps going in the background for quick start

Here's a link to check out the super-pre-alpha: http://youtu.be/g3hNYtNVGJM (so you can see it already grabs articles and sorts areas and images)
What do you think? Should I put the time in to finish it for everyone?
Thanks,
B.

I think if u can manage to create and page transition effect that makes flipping through them as exciting as it is on Flipboard then ur App will sell itself....i don't see that on your video.... it's laying out new nicely though.
try to focus on visuals and gestures.

Yea, it's complete alpha stages right now. I don't even have the code in for viewing an article. I won't be taking the exact FB effect, but was planning on making a swipe effect of some kind, but don't want to spend the million hours finishing this out if everyone says "Why bother, we'll use FlipBoard."
Thanks,
B.

Put in mind that Flipboard announced that the company will release the app only for chosen devices ....so if your app suits older less powered devices and have some cool features that are optimized for smooth browsing and doesn't consume battery ...then i think u should work on it and don't give up .
second of all you should know by now people lke to try out new apps every now and then ...we get bored fast my friend
good luck developing ..but if u loose interest then it's also ok .....maybe u will come up with something even better

Yea, now that the APK is out I'm seeing that Flipboard is working fine on older devices, I think I'll hold off. While I'm happy to continue building this, I don't see much point unless Flipboard doesn't come out tablet optimized. Happy to give people another option, but I only have a limited amount of time, and could never compete with the feature list that FB provides.
Thanks,
B.

It's just my opinion, and no, I doubt I could do any better, but that's why you won't see any art from me. I guess it's just the use of a common (and ugly) font like Times New Roman makes it look very unpolished. I like the use of color, but I personally find that boot screen to be quite ugly. I guess I shouldn't have been so rude in how I said it, so I apologize, but why threaten to not do any more just because of one person's remarks when you could instead use the criticism to improve your work. I guess I'm just spoiled by the work I've seen on other devices.

Repeat have you seen it running ?

doesn't change the font.

pacattack is back!!miss you bro(from htc evo)

...and exactly how does seeing it running change what I've said? Like cars10k said, it doesn't change the font, and in the end that's really what makes it look so amateurish. Also I can't install it as I'm not keen on voiding my warranty just yet only to get root. Perhaps an animated GIF would enlighten us, if you're so convinced that seeing it in motion will make any difference.
I guess just let me start over... nice boot animation, especially those wild colors, but you might want to think about changing the font to something more appealing than a font we've all been staring at for the last 22 years... it gives it a rather generic look.
There, that's a bit more constructive, and again, I apologize for being a douche... to me it honestly does look like how I described it originally, but I should have been more respectful in how I said that.

Thanks for your efforts Pacattack and thanks for taking the time to share it with everybody. Keep up the good work, your way, your style.

Pac's the man! Pacman! Ty for your work!
