Aura WM's Shop Savvy? - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps

Hey guys,
I really wanted that shop savvy program like many others onto my htc diamond so I have been doing alot of research. I finally came across a concept that microsoft research was putting together a while back I got it loaded onto my decvice. It takes a picture of the barcode recognizes it but then gives a network error. I was hoping that maybe someone could figure it out and maybe have it look and act alot nicer then it is at the present moment. to bad we can't just find a way to connect it to the same database shop savvy uses right.
Here is the link for the desktop download. I have a .cab version but have no way to uplaod it.

APP request - grol testing software for windows mobile

Hello everyone. I am a second year electronics student and am now working for my General Radiotelephone Operator License (GROL). I am looking at having to memorize the answers to just under 700 questions. Its rather tough lol. The reason I am here is simple. I have searched and searched and have not found any software for my touch pro that will help me study for this test. I don't know how to write programs but I know that many of you out there do a phenomenal job. I am looking for someone that would write a program for me that would quiz me on all the questions for the GROL. In fact I believe that if one where interested in making a few dollars he or she could go all out and make a program that creates a full exam from the test question pool, then watches which ones the user gets wrong and makes sure to ask them more often. It would also be cool if a pop up window came up explaining the proper answer. I also think it would be nice to have a screen at the end showing results. I know at first this seams daunting but I do have software that came with my book that is close to this and could send you a copy. Also, the entire question pool is listed on the fcc website. It wont let me post the link here but if you contact me by email i can find it for you.
The GROL only requires sections 1 and 3. The only other program similar was marked at $40.00 and for the pc. Nothing has been found for the PPC where it makes the most sense. During random downtimes a person can do a few random questions here and there. I believe that if made to look nice with a nice touch style interface someone could post this to windows marketplace and sell it for $20.00 easily and make some nice cash on it. I would learn to program and do it myself if it weren't for the fact that I am in class now and need it ASAP.
Thanks in advance for all that entertain the thought of taking this on

It's not exactly what you said, but maybe you can use SuperMemo UX & SuperMemo Mobile. It's free software, but you will need to build your own course.

I know this is an older post. And I knkw what you mean, and are talking about. I am changing career fields into Avionics, and a classmate has an app for his (cry)Phone. But in the Google Play Store, they have some, but they are expensive for what it is ($19.99 and $12.99). I can't find anything except crApple. Absolutely no Android. I can't even find anything where someone ported the CD that is in the book over to Android and other platforms. I have coppied the files from the CD to a folder on my computer called "GROL." So I didn't have to have the CD in my computer the whole time. I'm going to graduate at the end of this month, and I only have Element 1 done. Partly its my own fault for waiting until now. But either way, I'll have 3 & 8 done. But it would be nice if I could take the studying with me when I have life going on and not by my computer. Lol
Android surpassed crApple, and yet we still get kicked to the curb.

CabCache - All the cabs in one place

Hi peoples,
I have had a windows mobile phone for years, mostly thanks to the support of people on here who have been able to answer virtually every question about tweaks, enhancements etc and therefore stopped me throwing it out of the window. I currently have an HD2 and, again thanks to the people on here, I love it.
The only problem I've had is being able to find the tweaks and CABs without trawling through pages and pages of forum speak.
so, I've created a site call the cabcache.
The idea is to make it easy to find the cabs and tweaks, through a simple search.
it's in its early form as it's going to take me a while to collate all the tweaks and cabs available, but I'm adding more and more every day. If you would like to help me build the site, please get in touch.
I've tried (and will strive to) give credit to everyone who owns the cabs and tweaks. If you see something on the site that isn't giving you the credit you deserve, please get in touch. Similarly, please get in touch if you see one of your offerings that you would like removed.
At the moment, you cannot upload your own cabs (removed due to previous abuse) but this will be re-instated shortly (about a week I think once I've reconfigured the code)
so, if you want to help me out, please PM me, or get in touch through the site.
many thanks.
very good idea
Have just checked out the site and it is looking very good so far. Clear, concise and easy to use, perfect.
A cracking idea which will save a lot of time.
Keep up the good work and I hope you get the support the site deserves.
this is a great idea, hope it realy takes off.

I don't mean to be a ****, but what's the difference between an offsite compared to a thread that beat you to the point already: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=584415

The only difference is that thread is currently 67 pages, making it difficult to search.
I just wanted to make it easier was all.
If you'd make use of some PHP + a database and integrate rate systems/upload features this could be pretty good.. Then it could also display screenshots, be categorized, reviewed, etc..
You could also make it device-specific categorized. Then you can ask the XdaMarketplace developers to integrate it into their app by creating an API and not only offer apps but also tweaks/sense mods for their phones directly.
Hi , even if you don't add loads of features as mentioned above, which would be great, as it it its very useful as a searchable portal to all the adjustments that can be made. I picked up on one already swype, that I hadn't seen listed thanks for that.
Hi,
firstly, many thanks for all the positive comments (and the couple of negative ones I've had lol)
All feedback is appreciated.
Logins are back!!
so you can now create a login and add your own CABs and Tweaks.
As before, if you have any problems, or notice anything that shouldn't be happening, please let me know.

Hi,
I've been getting the emails advising me of the error. The issue seems to be that you haven't entered an email address in the registration form. This is needed so that I can ensure the registration is from an actual person. Your email address is encrypted in the db and is quite secure.

ok..
working again now. Had to get hosting company to reset permissions on the site as for some reason they had reverted to read only, meaning the DB couldn't be written to.
great idea, would be great if this thread is notified of updates as and when they are added as i/we will receive a notification
It would be really useful if there was some way to see which phones the cabs are compatible with. Some clearly don't work with the HD2, though they probably to work with other handsets.

Are there any news app for the HTC HD2??

Can someone tell me what is the best application for news on the HTC HD2?
It is best if it can update news in real times on the homepage with compatible font for the HD2 screen.
I look but cannot find such program thus it would be great if someone can help? Thank in advance.

I don't know if it's the best but you might check out the AP News app. It's free and very easy to find. on the Microsoft Marketplace.

I have been using it for a while now. I like it a lot. Another thing you might want to try is some rss reader app.
Decided to look on the Marketplace and cannot find that AP News app on the UK Marketplace.
Is there anything else that is suitable or am I being useless in my ability to find it on the MS MP?

snaptu has a few news channels on it not very consise & not totally utd but for a basic news feed try this
i have not come across any winmo rss reader that is even close to what you get for the iphone or android devices (i have an iphone 3gs, nexus one, samsung i8910, archos 5IT and motorola milestone - and i consume news from all these devices depending on which one is the closest!).
anyway, after having tried multiple apps on various platforms, i find myself returning to google reader's mobile version.
i would suggest you set up your feeds one-time in google reader using a desktop, and then from your phone access the mobile version located at google.com/reader/i (note the "i" at the end of the string).
you can use opera 10 - the formatting is a bit off, but the headlines wrap properly. you could also try skyfire.
if you consume lot of feeds, you will love the way stories expand in place, and flicking down takes you to more headlines. this vertical approach is much faster and elegant than the horizontal approach implemented by dedicated rss apps. those apps take you to the story in a new window and then you have to retract back to get to the list. you are always backing in and out, rather than flicking downwards seamlessly...

I have tried Daily News and AP News app and gotta say Daily News was better - until I found Yomo Media... Take a look at it...
http://www.freewarepocketpc.net/ppc-download-yomomedia.html
BTW - you want to install OMarket as well as it stores about 500 free apps for WinMo devices....
More devs should start developing apps with the ManilaSDK. It is pretty much aweseome, and makes us able to create state of the art apps for the, in my oppinion best mobile plattform!
Freewarepocketpc.net is an awesome plattform to share the products!

What happened to Sashimi???

I am looking for something to automate my email settings after flashing. Sashimi seemed to be the software that would do the trick. Seems like it dropped off the face of the earth. Author is banned here and the winmob experts website that he moved to is gone altogether.
Anyone know if this software is still available or is there something that will do the same thing that is current.
Thanks
Paul
Am also wondering. Have the experts on xda transitioned to something other than Sashimi?
It's your lucky day, a guy just near there have posted a modified version :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=9303770#post9303770
Disclaimer : I haven't tested this one, so i can't tell if it's crap or not...
Sashimi still standard??
Is Sashimi still the defacto standard being used ? I know SPBclone is the pro cloning/imaging sw, but i figured developers would constantly be tweaking a similar solution.
FYI some Tutorial Vids that might be of interest to anyone in my point in this learning curve. I found them of interest @ least These will have links to the rest available on Youtube
oops - seems as a new user i cant share the links w/u but search for 'winmoexperts' on youtube and u will see
thnx again all - site has been very educational
very nice, thank you buddy

[development]Filgoal app

hi
i found an easy way to make quick apps for websites
it is in that link : http://developer.bada.com/badaforum/board/thread/view.do?boardName=tools&messageId=33230&startPage=1&curPage=1
i tried to make my first app right away
My first app is for Filgoal.com (Egyptian football news website)
that app is totally based on RSS feeds and a youtube Channel
after trying the app i found a serious bug
the bug is when you load the first line of the news it loads normally but when i press back and load the second line of the news it loads the first one!!!!
i found out that all the news are shifted by one
of course i don't know how to fix this so i attached the whole app and waiting for anyone who finds where the bug is and how to fix it
Thanks in Advance
Yes, i am trying to steel the way for the scrolling, it seems that this guy added the webcontrol on a scrollable panel. that could be the solution for my problem the other things, i don't know the code is to modular to check it quick out, sorry.
By the way this example is from arun.sd this guy send me the Premium Partner E-Mail as i entered it, i think he is one of the main bada developers, and he is realy good, respect.
ok i understand now
he is a big developer but he didn't notice that bug!!!!!
i really need anyone to contact him directly to tell me how to fix it
i already wrote on his twitter page,developer.bada thread but he is not responding
if anyone know him please contact him
Yes i have his e-mail don't worry have you tried the installer method or the one with the source code?
You could post to his topic on the developer page there he should look out sometimes
And by the way have you ever seen a programm without any bugs? I not.
Thanks larioteo
it is just one method completes itself
i posted in the topic already
i thought it should be bug free as it is in the tools and libraries section
i am angry because i already uploaded the app to the seller office and i need to fix it quickly before being refused
i'll wait for further info from you
Dont worry, have you forgotten the mail? they will delete it automatically. or you can also do, but one question have you try it with another site? i am also interestet in this info app, its cool, and the scrolling is that how it should be
Already tried it with several sites and the same bug exist in all of them
when i get it fixed i'll make a one for XDA of course
maybe you can make for you sites too and give it a try it is really cool with its youtube feature
yes i will take a look after the next voluntas update ok?
of course
here we are a free community
you can do what you want when you want
we don't force each other to do anything
Please don't hurt me^^
No i think a little bit politeness isn't bad. We are all here for the same thing, making bada more suiteable for us and others.
@mylove Application XDA for bada sounds wonderful, especialy for bada OS section.
e-mailed Arun and here is his reply
Thank you for your email.
I shall be away from office till Jun 2.
I shall attend to your email as soon as I return.
Thank you for your patience.
Regards,
Arun S Devarajan

so when he is back he will see how to fix it
@baza14
of course it is interesting too
i think it won't be approved at Samsungapps so i'll contact morata to help me with its installble package making
i'll make it from tomorrow
Yes this guy arun is cool, i couldn't imagine it that i got the premium partner state, he is fantastic.
@mylove90 you could give it a try, how, pn me
Already made XDA app put there is a bug also so it can't get data from RSS feeds on the bada forums
it now can get data from the portal,twitter and XDA TV
to me it is useless because it doesn't support bada in anyway(the whole world in it revolves around Android and WP7)
it is pointless to release it now
will try with Arun to find a fix for it too
P.S : you are a noob video is so funny
could you send me your sourcecode? i will fix your problem. please make a file called
Changelog.txt
and list all bugs in it that you have found, detailed when it apperas and what you have done to get it. I am a little bit confused, in the last time, i need this file
For the appbuilder itself i dont have enough time due to sdk2.
Sorry for being so stupid and not posting the source from the beginning
Actually if you fixed XDA app you will fix the AppBuilder
i attached the whole folder from the SDK
i was all that time waiting for Arun as he sent an E-mail from two days that he is so busy and will try to fix the app this week end but i don't think he will have any time for it
Thanks in advance
I know he is currently coding on bada 2 i think this is more important.
Got the fix for the app from Arun finally
i'll try it and report my feedback to him
Hej cool, he is fantastic, isn't he`?
Then you don't need my Services?, Mabe change the gui or icons, that it looks more in your wishes.
yes he is so cool
but said at the end of the mail if you faced any more problems don't come to me back
he is just too busy
still i need you
he just fixed one issue
the first one in the changelog file
maybe some polishing in the app would be nice too
it is yours now
take it seriously i have not done anything in it to take it as my app (just collected RSS feeds)
here is the indexing fix
Credit goes to Arun
1) Go to: XDA Developers\src\ListForm.cpp
2) Search for this function in that file: "ListForm::OnItemStateChanged"
3) Replace the existing code ["LoadArticle(index-1);"] with "LoadArticle(index);"
4) Compile + build the project

Click to collapse
found another fix for the UI to make the Logo pic over the articles bigger to fit all that area
Credit goes to me this time
1)Go to XDA Developers\inc\Globals.h
2)Search for LOGO_MAX_HEIGHT
3)Change values as below
#define LOGO_MAX_HEIGHT 90
#define LOGO_MAX_WIDTH 480
4) Compile + build the project
