im looking for what the title says. something VGA compatible. it doesnt have to be 3d rendering, that would be cool. just the simple ability to have it go to a screen saver slide show of some favorite pictures would be great.
I have my diamond docked on my desk 8h a day at work id like something to keep the screen from burning in. and also keep my diamond private when i decide to leave my desk for a coffee no need for people walking past and getting an eye shot of a SMS notification that's none of there business.
if this has been made/published before please point me in the right direction as i have yielded nothing good in my searches.
Screensaver PPC
Haven't tried it myself, but will in a couple of minutes.
or this
Matrix SS
Main program works and Matrix add on works.
Too bad, we can't customize our own.
I like the idea of a slideshow of the pictures in your album.
Hi..is there a application for diamond that runs your jpegs as a screensaver??
The standard Pictures & Videos app already has a screen saver. Open the application and go to Menu>Tools>Options>Slide Show (Tab) and check "Play screensaver when connected....".

The fun is great. You have to realized that whatever is missing will be develop in the next couple of months. Now grading android system -> The best phone I've ever had by far, and I have been to lots and lots of Smarts phones....
Addressing some of the cons
Video Player: Available on market, but very, very limited (i miss tcpmp)
Setting Wallpaper: While ur on the Home screen, press the Menu button, wallpaper will be a selectable option
Editing Bookmarks: Open your browser, then press the Menu button, select Bookmarks, on the bookmarks screen, press and hold on the bookmark u want to edit until a screen pops up. Edit bookmark is there.
Clock on Home screen: to move it, just press and hold on the clock until it 'detaches' from the home screen.
to delete it, press and hold until it detaches from the screen then move it to your tab bar which you'll notice changed from an arrow to a trash bin.
to add one, while on the home screen, press the Menu button, select Add, Widget, Clock. then just place it wherever u want.
Something i had an issue with that i posted elsewhere was an rss reader. Google has one on its homepage, ur looking for Reader. Just sign-in and setup your links. Hopefully this'll help some people.
I've got the same pro's and con's as everyone else. I really like this phone much more then my TYTN II. I might have had a bunk TYTN though.
I'm missing the software keyboard, sim contact manager, and file explorer from WM phones though.
Otherwise I'm happy that I drove a long way to get this phone.
Hello fellow G1 users.
Ever since the news about OS came a while back I have been sold on android (well it’s potential).
There is obviously a software shortage… however, the community and google will fill the gaps with time, I think.
One big issue I have the battery capacity.
I would like to hear from you guys/girls:
What have you done to make the battery last longer?
Here are some of the things I have done (currently testing this configuration)
1. Stopped sync on all items….. I only kept calendar (sharing it with my wife)
2. Stopped using the gmail app. Instead I setup all of my email accounts via second email app with all POP (not IMAP <- drains battery like crazy) where I can control frequency with which the app checks mail (10-15 min apart for me).
3. turned off location service from GPS and network towers because I think one these are invoked, they do not turn off
4. Last: the usual…. Screen time out to shortest timeout and screen brightness to lowest comfortable level for me.

I picked up a second charger yesterday for work so that I can charge it.... if anything.
Pros: pretty good v1 Android OS, nice touch screen, fast (almost no lag), decent 3G speed, pretty good marketplace, room for growth
Cons: no virtual keyboard, need full BT profiles, no desktop sync, no task manager, no file manager, no 3.5mm headphone jack, no video recording
now that i seen everyone elses views time for me
ok i love this phone but i still carry around m dash as a picture/video recorder
the camera on the g1 sucks to me especially on how long it takes to snap
in my opinion my dash takes better pictures.
the battery definately sux nomore words about it lol
we realy do need an onscreen keyboard im starting to get tired of opening the phone to type lol
really wish there was a task manager
now for the good
great phone quaity i can hear anybody so clear
very fast touch screen
very fast internet
i love it just a few minor priblems that i kno google will fix later on, best phone i ever invested money in

Thanks for the tip on bookmarks! Afraid to delete clock, what is the replacement like? Any better?
I've heard everyone complaining about the battery life and while its not the greatest I don't think its as horrible as everyone makes it out to be. Batt lasted me 12 hours yesterday with heavy internet use!

Err, all of a sudden my Diamond2 appears to be showing a slideshow after a while when in the cradle. Lucky there's nothing embarassing on there as it's in a cradle in an open office
Is this a feature and how do I turn it off?? Mystified why it's started doing it as it never did it before and I've not been playing - honest.
Cheers, Rob.
And also, even when the device locks itself (automatically), the slideshow is still trying to run. I've got the <<SLIDE>> icon on screen but every few seconds a bit of slideshow tries to peek through the top 1cm of the screen.
All very bizarre...
Cheers, Rob.
Anyone?
There must be a setting in there somewhere to automatically start slideshow when idle?
Cheers, Rob.
Not that I know.
You must have some kind of software doing that... How did you get it to lock automatically? Could it be that!
The automatic lock is on Settings, All Settings, Lock. Just had a look and there's nothing on there that looks like slideshow. Actually, the slideshow appears before it locks full-screen but then it tries to even peek through when locked.
I've been looking around and wonder if it's something to do with "Sideshow":
http://blogs.inquirer.net/m-ph/2007/11/28/windows-mobile-slideshow/
I don't use Vista or W7 - still on Windows XP.
Cheers, Rob.
PS. It doesn't display the slideshow when out of the cradle which is another reason I suspect it's sideshow...
Guess what: I found (just now) the automatic lock.
Anyway, there must be some trick here. I'll check it too.
I'll come up if I found something.
Finally an answer from the Microsoft mobile forum. It's a setting on the pictures and video applet to display a slideshow when plugged into a PC. The reason I couldn't find it was because you have to scroll down the menu to find the options entry. This is one (of a few) things I don't like about WM - it's not obvious that the menu has more items on it than you can see. For a PC user, scrolling a menu isn't a natural thing to do.
Cheers, Rob.
Glad to know!
Please read before throwing the "search first" one liner out at me
Ive searched, ive read,
The problem is, sure i can add things to rotate in BSB tweaks, but my problems are a little more tedious.
With most roms comes rotation of the pictures and music tabs, and so on.
But alot of stuff i want to rotate, such as input for setting up email, so i can type it in with the bigger keyboard, signing in on the data services page in all those and so on.
Basicly i want everything that can rotate, to rotate, (heres where the but comes in)
BUT, when i add things like this to rotate it ends up adding manilla which ends up making the pictures and music tab rotate twice putting them upside down.
I want everything to rotate but what the heck, i dont want upside down stuff too
Ive used g-config and BSB in all of the NRG roms on the tilt2 and now on the hd2 and always does this
I would suggest you delete all the rotate instructions in BSB Tweaks and use a tool called Gyratur instead.
Hope this helps.
WB
I only added a couple apps in BSB to rotate. I would need to stop the pics and music tab to stop rotating and then rotate them by adding manilla (i think it shows up as start) to rotate.
Will deleting all the lists in BSB stop the music ad pics tabs from rotating? I dont think it will. Im not sure how to stop them. I think i tried gyrator not to long ago and got the same result, double rotate in music and pics tabs
No no no...
use this program, the default to portrait, run the "Show Apps Name" tab and add each program, along with its desired rotation. Make sure to select enabled and run at startup.

Ive actualy tried that before and just to satisfy i installed it and guess what, yup, music and pics tabs roate twice, so they are upside down.
Not good. Rotating on the lock screen unlocke the phone and then the app i guess crashed as it wouldnt rotate again

go to exceptions in changescreen config, if you see manila,.delete.it (hold down and then delete). Make sure that default is only the vertical (straight up, portrait) is the only one checked!
I removed manila and still had the double rotation with music and pictures tabs in sense. I rebooted the phone, just so you know. Maybe i have to kill all the rotations listed in bsb tweaks that comes in the rom?
Great, nothing at all on the exceptions page and portait only as deault. Now my all messages page and inside a text convo it rotates landscape and then goes right back to portate.
Just what i figured. No way to disable sense default rotating of the music and pics tasbs and enabling everything to rotate with something else
Have you tried changing the registry setting relating to music and album rotation then setting it to rotate with an app?
No, but i guess ill go looking into that now. And disabling htc messaging rotation too.
Id love to find a solution to this too but from what I've read it seems everyones stuck with the music/pictures problem...
I found a reg entry which im pretty sure enables/disable the album rotation but I couldnt see anything relating to the music tab.....
Someone must know if this will work or not..............

Anyone can get apps rotating! And without rotating manila home!!
Yes i am trying to get everything to rotate without any of the sense stuff double rotating. The most important things id like to rotate are pages where you click and sign in on things like the facebook tab, email setup and so on. I dont really care about rotating anything you listed that you have rotating. Those can easily be rotated with bsb tweaks and some other apps
oohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.............

I want everything automatically rotatable as well except for manila home, BUT I do want the option to (with long press send key for example). Is this achievable?
Was looking through the Nook Color forum and ran across this post.
He called the app Multiimage but I could only find MultiPicture. I am pretty sure it is the same app he referenced. Especially since the nice instructions he was kind enough to share worked like a charm.

The different "Hubs" for home, media movies, etc refers to each screen. By default ADW (free or paid) has 5 screens. Each screen is given a theme (I use Social, Games, Home, Media and News). Then you use some sort of text icon to name the screen. The idea is to group content appropriate for each screen so everything is easy to find.
To go along with this many of us have chosen to use the mulitimage live wallpaper app from the market that allow you to have a different wallpaper on each screen.
Download the Multiimage live wallpaper
long press on the screen and select wallpapers/live wallpapers
select Multiimage and choose settings.
press the button labeled "Add individual settings" so you get screen settings for each screen
now select each screen setting and add the source. You will need to have folders on the sd card for each "Hub" and then have wallpapers inside.

Be sure and click the Add Individual Settings button once for each screen that you have. A new field labeled screen 1,2 so on will magically appear above the aforementioned button.
I really like it and just had to share. The Market link is here.
https://market.android.com/details?id=org.tamanegi.wallpaper.multipicture&feature=related_apps
Sorry if this is a useless post but until today I had no idea. Maybe I should get out more...
thanks. very helpful. i was wondering if this kind of app existed but wasn't sure exactly what to search for.
This can't be all that great for battery life or hogging resources can it?
Anyone done any testing?
It seems like it may be using a little more from the battery, but it hasn't been bad enough for me to un-install it. I charge mine once daily both before using this and after. But I play with the A500 constantly and have streams almost always playing something.
The only other issue that I have noticed is that it can get a little laggy at times. But nothing that I can't live with.
The title is pretty self explanatory but I have long conversations that I need to print out for use in court (oh the fun of child custody battles...) and in the past I have always just screen shotted what I need, but having a convo that is 15 screenshots long doesnt seem like the easiest way to handle something like this. Has someone found an app or maybe even just a different method of taking 30 or so messages out of a text thread in your phone and printing them? Thanks in advance!
try touching the "+" when you take normaly the screenshot, on web pages it works and goes down until you want, i didn´t try with messages

Go into settings on your phone and search for advanced features. Once you are in this section look for smart capture and make sure that is switched on. Now that smart capture is enabled you should be able to see a capture more button show up after you have taken a screen shot. By clicking the capture more button it will automatically scroll down and extend the original screen shot creating one long screen shot with all the needed information you need. Keep clicking the capture more button until you have collected the information you need.

Any good way to print it now, or at least set it up so that can be easily printed by my lawyer when I send it to him? Its just one long jpg right now and if you try to print it in windows it either shrinks to print on 1 page and is unreadable, or it zooms in to where you only see maybe 1/20th of the conversation.

The only thing I can think of is split it up into a few segments and put one bit on each page. Making sure you number the pages to show which order the conversation is in
