Wikipedia on your Diamond - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps

Has anyone installed the mobile version of Wikipedia on their Diamond? Any good? Where would I download it?
Thanks,
Jon

Why an special application for wikipedia? Why not use the original page, it looks perfect on the Diamond. And if you are afraid of waiting for the wiki to load try
http://wapedia.mobi

I want it installed on my Diamond because then searches are instant. Gotta make use of that 4GB somehow!

im using mobipocket reader with wiki from http://fbo.no-ip.org/cgi-bin/twiki/view/Public/MobiPedia

Adobe acrobat reader lite

plz, i remember that there is a lite version of adobe reader, i have found once in one of the customized ROMs, any one have that cab file?
You can download the .exe yourself from the Adobe website however they do not certify it for WM5 - That said I do believe it works perfectly OK on WM5 devices.

Yup, it does work OK under WM5.
Thank you for your reply, i know that, but this is the full version which exhaust the system too much, so, plz if any of you have the built in acrobat reader in his rom, look for its version, it should be a lite version that is a very good reduced version. Thank yu very much.

Is there a difference between the one Demonefixio pointed to and the one on the xdadev ftp?

Your're cruising the forum today Quite a few mb - the one on the ftp is the light edition
Is there a feature comparison between these two versions? Mbs shouldn't be an issue if installed to a Storage Card, but a faster app (especially for searching) would be great.
full version is better for small screens

Acrobat LE does not allow reflow mode application- even on tagged .pdf documents. So opening and reading a file is really a pain since the text never fits well on the small screen.
The acrobat reader for PPC version 2 from Adobe website has this feature enabled. Reflow is really useful for reading text .pdf files on small screens. For graphics you can simply turn the feature off. Although if the original .pdf has been properly tagged- it behaves wonderfully for both text and graphics.

The full acrobat version is much larger and takes time loading, but you can install it on the sd card and it runs just fine.
word search times for the two are comparable, as expected, the full version is a bit slow- (but I was running it off my sd card)
The full acrobat version is running fine on WM6.
Try Foxit Reader for PPC
Try foxit reader it is cool...

Newsland

I always used AvantGo on my old PPC, so wanted something similar for my Exec. I found Newsland on MS's website (yeah, I know, I deserve everything I get) and it had some good reviews.
Unfortunately, it doesn't work, and the website I'm supposed to register with is no longer in existance. The only site I can find is in Russian.
I thought "Stuff it" and tried to remove the software. I used settings>remove on the Exec. It has gone from the program list, but the software is still there. I tried removing it through Activesync, same result; gone from the program list, still on the Exec. I've tried a soft reset, it's still there, taking up room. Any ideas?
Newsland Remove
Hi,
I think the following is happened:
The Today screen plugin of Newsland was still active wen you tryed to remove Newsland. What you need to do is, try to install the software again, and when this is done deactivate the today plugin. Than remove the program again. After that you can look with the File Explorer and look at Program Files if the map Newsland still excist's. If so, you can delete it!
Hope this helps,
Cheers Leo
Does this mean AVantGO does not work in our Universal? Any other alternative to get NEWS REPORT on our Universal?
@cktlcmd
Hi,
If you want to use a good newsreader!

For me this is the best, tried Newsbreak and SPB Insight but this one is much faster and better designed.
Cheers Leo

Thanks. I checked the site. I do have a question. Does it support landscape view on our Universal? All the screen shots I saw were portrait view.
Landscape view
Hi,
Yes it does, I love this app, works smoothly!

Thanks Laurentius26, I'll try it now.
To the person asking if AvantGo works - it does work, just fine, in landscape or portrait. Just go to the AvantGo website and download the latest version. Annoyingly, it insists on syncing through it's own software rather than going through Activesync, and it seems slower to upload than it was on my 3 year old RX3715.
Still, it does the job just fine. I wanted to try something a bit different, so I may have a look at the other suggestions.
Edit - worked like a charm. Thanks again.

MINI S And eXPerience

Hi

I have tryed and i keep getting error after error and not workin?

It's not "XP on your PPC", it's a skin, nothing more. Try the official forums maybe?

HTC Plus

Find this from other forum. Work fine on my HTC Trinity.
More screenshot
oh its taing too much of real estate My screen area!
Does it support VGA?
Backlight working ?
Does the backlight button work with this release ? In the other version your device will freeze at bootup....anyone tested already ?
btw: seems to be the same version like in the other post....
Cheers
Edit:
Could not wait Just installed, no problems on my device (Artemis) and Backlight-button. Looks cool.
What i don't like: in the GUI-Config you can only add apps from the Programs-directory (for example: when you want to add solitaire (which is stored in "Games"), you need to move the shortcut into the Programs-Folder....or you need to add the registry-key in HKCU\Software\HTC\HTCPlus\Shortcuts manually....or am i wrong ?
But in the end.... i think i stay with HTC Home....
Works on Artemis?!

It's interenting that you had no problems. I also installed on my Artemis with official HTC Asia WM6 rom and yes, it works until you switch off the device. Than you can never switch it on again, only by soft reset with stylus!
So I uninstalled the prog quickly...
Otherwise it would be nice to have it on Today screen, so if someone could construct a bug-free cab from the extracted files I would really welcome it!
cheers
Anybody tried this on a Touch?
The "other" Version (as petervbeck says) in the Hermes Forum doesn't work on the Touch.
I doesn't work on my Touch!
Working on Wizard
HTC Plus is Working on Wizard!
just 2 bugs:
when you select battery status in Customization and you tab on the symbol you go to wifi settings and backlight is not working

I'm using Tom's 4.1 full and as i said, no problems. But in fact- i like HTC Home more, but that's my opinion.... on my device i had no problem with hanging boots or something similar, i tested all the buttons....but not for a long time...then i switched back to HTC home...that's my expirience with Plus..
Cheers
How about a little credit where credit is due? This is the same version I posted in the Hermes forum here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=326689
Today I posted an updated version that should help some people who had problems with it.
This tool was non-functional when I found it. I had to dissassemble the dlls to find out why the utility would not work (missing HTCImgCodec.dll).

Thanks! Keep the great work!

Is the "aplication launching pad" of HTC plus finger-scrollable, or the only way to scroll is by tapping on the arrow?
TIA
Can anyone confirm that it uses less memory than HTC Home?

nobody seems to answered earlier question, does this support vga?

how do you remove HTC plus!? I like it but it freezes my PPC6700 sometimes. I don't use it but I cannot remove it from the today settings menu. Thanks
I do not know if this plugin supports VGA. If you have a VGA device, try it out and let us know.

[SKN] Ryon WM Dialer VGA

Heey!
I don't know if anyone is still using the original WM Dialer but me now with all the phonecanvas and stuff out there, but anyway..
Here is a skin I made..
Feel free to use
(I only use the wm dialer for making calls, for answering I got S2U2 which is great!)
In landscape mode some buttons got little graphic issues, but don't use lanscape my self..
Download cab and transfer to your device, run and softreset.
This is my first cab but I have tested it and seems to work fine.
(Uninstallable. From Remove Program's list as any other program)
Use at own risk! Your phone is not my responsibility!

Enjoy
very nics for sharing i still use the WM Dialer think its snappy and less mem usage like the colors black and grey less mem usage ,.thank you
Best dialer skin I've seen, you should make one for the htc side to answer phone canvas like this, Thanks
Great!
Going to install this on my 6.5

EDIT: Worked out great!

No, it's made for the original wm dialer in wm6.1.
I have not tested on 6.5 but WH33LSONFIRE did, so it seems to work on both..
No change to Dialer
Hi,
sorry if im missing something simple here but having installed the cab restarted device the dialer remains the standard wm one.
My Device is the diamond using latest orange rom.
cheers.
james
Great job! I've disabled the TF3D dialer, because the memory leak is in there. So now my diamond looks fresh again! Thx
really nice looking dialer, Ryon. thanks!!!
I like it a lot!
I don't use the WM dialer anymore (since slide-to-answer came along) but I'll add a link to this thread in my WM dialer skins thread.
Keep up the good work!

Beautiful skin. Can anyone upload to rapidshare? I can't access megaupload. It says the service is not available in my area.
Edit: Dont'worry. Got it now. Will test soon.
It looks a lot like the Pocketshield dialer.
