Hello all, I had a few questions that I was unsure of the exact answer as some of the topics I found relating seemed kind of vague exactly so I wanted to be sure.
1) Found the answer in another thread.
2) Is there a difference between running QVGA and VGA applications on the titan? For example the newest opera 9.5 build. I have seen two different versions posted one that was QVGA and one that is VGA. Is there a performance difference to running VGA or any reason to choose VGA over QVGA or vice versa?
I had a 3rd question but it seems to have slipped my mind right now so I will edit this if it comes back into mind. Thanks
Titan is a QVGA device. You will get better performance with a QVGA program. I have not tried it, but would think the vga program would not render properly on the titan and it would for sure eat more RAM, but again, just my programming background talking.

Paulya Phone Skins and HTC Universal
I have tried the skins from paulya.com on a Universal with ROM as below.
They do NOT work. I have attempted to modify the graphics of Pauly's very nice skins for my own use, this is possible and you can make the appearance on the screen appear normal at the corrected pixels per inch size, however, the underlying .dll that controls the layout of the touch screen that comes bundled does not ammend the touch responses correctly (as an example: in portrait mode the graphics for SPEED DIAL, HISTORY and TALK remain horiozontal above the number pad, whereas the .dll expects to find them in a vertical list to the right of the dialpad. If you have the time and the skills there are instructions on several forums (including this one) for editing the relevant dynamic link libraries.
The only skin I have found so far that works (as downloaded, out of the box, so to speak) on this device with its current ROM is O2's XDA Exec skin (or one made for it by a third party) which is attached to this post. This skin however consumes 2mb of storage for a minor change in appearance (transparent in place of solid graphics). I have deleted it.
Incidentally I have paulya's Vista phone skin on my HTC Himalaya. It is beautiful graphic work and makes the device very usable with one hand no pointer required. Thank you very much for all your hard work.
CORRECTION:
Further effort shows that the underlying .dll bundled with paulya's eten skins does amend the touchpad on the screen correctly. (i.e. you get the result you would expect by tapping on the screen, but the graphics will not display correctly even when they are resized to 192 pixels per inch. I would imagine there is only a small effort required to get from here to something that works but I do not know how to do that.

Hey i didnt get it right... the vista skin does it work on exec.... i suppose not.... please can u upload any working skin for exec.. i have been looking for the same for quite some time but the search is futile.... else upload the 2 mb skin u mentioned about... i m ready to sacrifice 2 mb for a good looking dial pad skin... thanx
PaulyA.com is no longer. For those of you who are still interested I have moved all my projects to JPL4Designs.com. The old site got robbed while I slept on it.. Mods, if you please update my links on the forums I would greatly appreciate it. Google is picking them off XDA-Dev and others rating the old site high. Thanks so much.

Welcome to the forum
If you do a read and search you'll find some nice dial pads for Uni
Good luck,
OK I am still using windows mobile five due to work related reasons. Hopefully they will upgrade my active sync to a WM6 compatible version so I can upgrade. I am trying rlToday and the TouchLike theme. It looks really good... Well what I can see of it. But everything is very big.
I have looked around and the 8125 is suppose to be QVGA... or am I mistaken? I have tried themes for WA, SBSH, SPB, ... but it seems like all QVGA themes turn out to be very large on my screen and unusable. I then try the VGA themes and they are the same way. Am I doint something wrong? is the 8125 a non-VGA PDA? do I have to turn something on?
I have been searching these forms for a week or so now and can not find anything.
Best Regards,
SoBBie
The 8125 is definitely a QVGA device.Not to be insulting, but you are for sure installing QVGA themes? I would think if something were wacky with your device everything would look "wrong."
Wizard is definately a QVGA screen.. when you have thing bigger than your screen, chances are, you are using a VGA program/theme/skin. Think, a 640x480 stuff inside a 320x240.. bigger on which screen?
Guys is there a way to fix the really TINY kepyad in TT7? i tried TT6 and have the same problem??
i had the same issue with xperia
I have exactly the same problem - not much help I know but at least you know it's not just you
You need the VGA version of Tomtom.
i have the vga version cab it doesnt work, only the qvga version works
There are several variants of the V7 cab, some of which are for VGA devices and will install on the HD. Check the other threads regarding Tomtom for the correct CAB.
Is the 7.910.985 vga cab the correct one to use on the HD?
Yes it is.
I went through that problem. Version 7.450.9028 doesn't matter if it's qvga or vga has got a tiny keyboard. You have to use 7.910.9185 VGA and keyboard is perfect in that version.
BUT!!! That version is a lot slower that 7.450.9028
So, there is no perfect sollution Good looking or good working
a lot slower in what sense? In the FPS? In the response time? In the lag?
Looks like FPS but it also causes lag
I have a CDMA Diamond Stock 1.22.557.1 ROM Running Opera 9.5 build 2392.
I dont have time (believe me I've tried) to read every post in every thread of each different version to figure out which ones do what. My question is which stable version is the most up to date that will work on my diamond and replace the current Opera thats installed? I don't want to have 2 separate operas taking up all my device storage, and I cant tell which build is the most recent because I have build 2392 and it looks like theres a newer verion thats 15613 or something. Also most of the threads dont even describe whats different about the build. Any help would be appreciated.
Unfortunately there's no single answer to your question.
(Not with the information you've given us.)
I suggest you start reading some Opera threads in the Development & Hacking forum (under General). If you want to make a quick selection on Opera threads, use the search!!!

I've tried, and I tried asking this question in the "Main Opera Thread" but no one seems to want to answer questions there. I promise I've searched and I know every build there is I just dont know which one to chose.

This is one of the big problems from many users in the forum, they look for information and some freaks complain all along, sending you to the search function. I've tried self many times to look for some info and the search function didn't help me at all, but those who are permanently online (Qt:04:56 PM --> At:05:04 PM*) just can delivery a poorly answer like that
- Well, if you want a faster Opera, install the build 15746 from Samsung Omnia, it ist very fast, support flash and WMP plugins very well, but it does not support Diamond's scroll wheel for zooming and the view does not rotate via Diamonds sensor too. I had it for many weeks on my Device.
Opera v9.5 Build 15746 VGA Samsung Omnia
- Or just use the latest available version from Diamond Pro 2, this one, support flash and wmp plugins too, works stable and supports the scroll wheel, but the view rotation does not work here too
Opera v9.5 Build 15613 VGA Diamond PRO 2
Ahh... hands off from the Opera 9.5 Beta 2 available by Opera.com
Install the opera CAB.file on your main memory to prevent a dual installlation.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!! That's all I needed to know. I dont know why so many people here think that google will take you to every single answer you're looking for. Sometimes its just not there. Again thank you for your help!
EDIT: I understand the Omnia version does not support the scroll zoom but does it still support the double tap zoom? Also is the Omnia version stable otherwise? I like faster and the scroll wheel isnt that big of a deal so as long as I can zoom some way I'll go with that one.
You're welcome

Any noticable improvements to warrant loading the newer diamond 2 build over the existing one? I cannot find any comparisons or feature rundown to determine if it worth the effort.
Anybody have some personal feedback?
Ceger
thanks for great answer, i downloaded the Opera v9.5 Build 15613 VGA Diamond PRO 2.. the good thing is the view rotation works on my diamond.
Hey guys, I Dl and installed the 15746 vers from omnia and opera keeps starting by itself over and over again. I cant get it to stay closed.
I just upgraded to the Diamond PRO 2 version on my Diamond and was able to run it once. Now every other time it just doesn't do anything. :S
EDIT: Ok, looks like it was a temporary bug, after a reboot it starts up normally after each close. Another question, maybe noobish... where is this opera.ini everyone keeps talking about? I can't find it.

Depends... Things like TF3D themes then No as they are customized for the screen resolution, ie QVGA, WVGA, VGA, so pick carefully or your flobar will be in the middle of your screen.
Top Icons should be a yes, they all use 32x32 ico files within the dll, so it should be ok, but not tested this. However, I did load so many with my Blackstone and they were all fine. Note that there are CMDA versions and GSM versions.
Pictures you will just have to get 480x800 pictures for backgrounds.
