I've been trying to find a universal remote program that's compatible with the prophet. So far, I can't find anything. I tried the latest Novii, and the IRDA remote II. But it doesn't seem to be compatible. Does anyone have any success?
I'mstill searchin for it. did you find anithing working ?
No, I haven't found anything. I wonder why the IR in the prophet is that different from the rest of the current pda's, especially from something like the wizard. It seems like every program out there thinks it's not compatible with the prophet. I wonder if it's just a hack away from fooling these programs to think it's compatible.
Any news on this issue? Does anyone at least know of a reg hack or something to fool these programs (eg, novii, etc) into thinking the IR is compatible?
I tried Novii remote when I had a magician and found that the IR was too feeble to work at any sensible distance. I've not bothered to try it on my prophet yet as the web site does not mention WM5 compatability.
Unless they updated the software, but I tried novii a few months ago, it was still incompatible (the program launches but says they don't recognize the built in IR. I know that these non-consumer IR are useless in terms of distance, but sometime I just want a working remote even if it's right in front of the TV or vcr (b/c some of the machines I have don't even have a remote). So if anyone can find a software that at least thinks the prophet IR is compatible, that's a start.

wow, and is it really possible?
The relatively new version 4 of the novii remote deluxe is compatible to the QTek s200 (HTC Prophet or XDA Neo).
But I'm still not able to get it to work. It freezes right after choosing the "Flip screen" properties.
Maybe someone has a suggestion?

You are completely wrong as NoviiRemote IS compatible with WM5. You can see it on product page at www.novii.tv/pocketpc/deluxe, chek 'compatibility' option on the right.

I didn't have such a problem, but why wouldn't you contact Novii's support team? They are quick to respond.

crazy...
I've just tried it again after I've tried it several times two days ago, with the same install-file and now it works...
[edit]
Really very curious...
Now it's freezing again just when starting the application. I've nothing changed...
It seems that this application is a very, very unstable one.

there's a program called CoolCamera....
That runs on some hardware, not all. It does run on Alpine but not om Himalaya. So no idea if it runs on Touch
Btw, Coolcamera ain't free but it does have a lot of good features. unfortunately, it's buggy on some devices.
doesnt work for the mogul

I tried the trial version from CNET. It shows the preview properly, but it doesn't save it properly. Any other alternatives?
Anyone tried this app on the athena? (as it also has an accelerometer) If so does it work?
http://s-k-tools.com/index.html?m_util.html#gsen
Would be brilliant if it works but my hopes aren't high as I couldn't find anything on the topic.

looks like a nice tool, but after I installed on my Ameo I tried to use GSen Version 1.40.
But a window popup with following message :
cannot connect to GSensor (1)
mhh, doesn't run on Ameo ... and delete it ...
Ameo, t-mobile ROM version 6
btw: I've now asked the developer why GSen is not running on Ameo ... hope I get an answer..

Hey,
I've installed it on my HTC Advantage X7510 with WM6.! Professional, and I can confirm that it works.
When I'm in the today screen and I turn the PDA it does turn in Landscape and Portrait mode with no problem great at last it works.
Thanks for the link if anybody what's me to try anything please let me known.
Thanks
Gigino
I am happy for you gigino, but I am in the same boat as palmchen (have a X7500 with t-mobile WM6 ROM).
Perhaps the interface to the sensor is slightly different between WM6 and 6.1
I am sure it can't be that difficult to access it from WM6. Hopefully the developer will be able to implement it or give some clue which will assist some brainbox from this community in hacking this version to get working with WM6. In my eyes this is one of those killer apps.
I tried this on wm6.1, and had the same error message.
IMO the answer is simple: it works using HTC VUEFLO .dll. X7510 has those dll, x7500 doesn't!
In AP4 or AP5 it will work

could you please provide the new vueflo.dll for the old devices ?
If it only a dll to change that should be not a problem, or ?
btw: I've asked the developer, but he told me that he is to busy and have no time in the moment to update this programm.
Thanks for this. It is a great find. Works well with my X7510.
This is a must have application for the X7510. It is just amazing.

For some it is a must have. For others, it is an annoyance and irritation.
only because we can't get it working!
Sorry guys, we doesn´t have these devices for testing.
We just was surprised about the info, our tool is working on HTC Advantage X7510.
Also we not know the reason why it is not working on HTC Advantage X7500.
Possible reasons:
- missing/different software driver
- different ROM/ACU version
- missing needed hardware
As i said, we cannot test because of missing hardware.

Not because of that. It was working all right.
I hated this auto rotate thing because 9 out of times the rotate happens against my wish, and it slows my device.
After the initial few minutes of novelty, I was already wanting to switch it off.

Thanks for the info, but I still far prefer assigning rotate screen to a hardware button and just press that when I want to rotate.

No, I don't, there are SOME dll, you can find it in the AP4 / AP5 ROM. I agree, the rotation is too slow and the screen rotation is useless and time consuming 90% of time. My brain is much faster in image rotation and my finger is slower than brain but acts only when needed

Screen rotation is fast on mine. Might be ROM or today screen related in yours.
The speed you can change in settings: #timeout(value) - default value 1000 ms

Oeps it just start working. I noticed the veuflo was disabled.

About a month ago I upgraded from my old trusty and excellent HTC HD to the new HD2.
After a few tweaks, haks and fixes and some downloads, I was extremely happy of my HD , in fact the only real improvement in the HD2 to me seems to be the much faster CPU (which of course is not a little thing)
However there are a couple of major gripes (or just lack of aternative options) on the HD2 that I find particularly unnerving, prominent among which is the excruciatingly bad Kboard.
It's even worse than the one I've got on my HTC Hero which has a far smaller screen.
On the HD I had installed "FingrKboard" which I found simply excellent; is'nt there something similar that would work on the HD2?
Or maybe do you think that the same .cab file that worked on the HD's wm 6.1 will also work on the HD2 wm 6.5?
Second major problem with the HD2 is that I still have'nt been able to find a (good and possibly free) registry editor for it.
I have read about some very interested tweaks for the HD2 in the threads of the forum, but they all require the use of a registry editor, which one would you suggest?
And again: would I be able to install and use one of those I had on the wm 6.1 of my old HD(1) ?
And last (and probably least too): would "Gyrator" ,be installable and working on the HD2 as it did on the HD1?
No eh?
And do you know of another app that would make the screen turn from portrait to landscape with all apps?
Even if you could point to the solution to just one of my conflicts with the HD2 , you would have accomplished your Xmas good deed by making very happy a poor afflicted geek.
This is the way you might earn your place in heaven, you know ?

FingerKeyboard worked on WM6.5 on the HD1 and works on the HD2. I found it to be superior to the standard HTC keyboard.
There is also a cab file that reduces the sensitivity of the screen on the HD2. This is supposed to make typing a bit easier although I have not personally tried it.
For registry editing, I use PHM RegEdit. It's a free program.
I use Resco Explorer and once you've downloaded that (for free), download the registry editor add-in (both cabs on the Resco site)

Resco Explorer will eventuall need a key to fully register the program. I do however second Resco if you can buy it.

The registry editor stays unlocked though. I actually never use the Explorer part but you're right, that gets locked after a few days so you need to purchase it (if you want to).
Try Swype as a keyboard. I found it on this site and haven't looked back! It has an amazing input method and is not as over-sensitive as the native HTC keyboard. Check it out....

I second PHM RegEdit.
Simple, easy to use and free.
Thanx fellas.
I had both PHM regedit and fingerkeyboard because I had downloaded and installed them on my old HD(1) and Samsung Omnia i900 ( of which I got rid long ago) , now I have installed them on the HD2 and they work great.
I wonder which other win 6.1 apps will work on the big screen and win 6.5 of the HD2.
Dutty (one of my heroes) for exemple had to modify Cyberon voice dialer to get it to work on the HD2 because as it was the standard version would'nt play together with the HD2., so not all HD apps would be usable on the HD2.
I wonder how Gyrator would behave in the new environment.
Oh, and thanks very much for the link too, very interesting and useful.
I hope I'll be soon able of being of some help too.
BSB tweaks for screen rotation mate

Thanx Carlos, I have already installed the awesome BB Tweaks and now I have also cheked the "show standard windows setting" box, but I still can't find the menu you uploaded with the screen turning option.
Where is it hidden?
Is there any particular option I should enable?
I have enabled nearly all of them anyway but hat option still eludes me.

Hi there..
Dont mean to flame or anything like that.
But the title of the thread suggests that you arnt happy with the device.
So we start reading your post.
But its all just software features you lack or want to change.
And that does not really imply the hardware exclusive to the HD2.
@ Johncmolineaux
Thank you mate, I looked for it for 2 days, maybe I should wear my glasses more often.
@ Enonoid
I'm sorry if from my title you or anybody else got the impression that I was'nt happy with the HD2: I bloody love it man!
I just wished to find a few apps, progs and tweaks to which I got used with my old HD1 (which I loved too).
I also have an HTC Hero and a Nokia N97 ,which after Nokia changed camera lens, camera cover, GPS chip & software, installed ROM 2.0, optimized memory, and gave me for free one year subscription to the latest OVI maps for Europe, has become a great phone too; but the HD2 is my fav hands down, even though as an OS per se I like Andrid more than WM 6.5 (mainly because of the marketplace and the awsome free apps available).
One must be a brainwashed Apple fanboy not to like like the HD2.

Swype is the next generation keyboard, amazing. I am running it on the HTC Touch HD, although it will run much better on a capacitive screen, more sensetive the screen the better it will work.
Yes, Swipe rocks,but after BB tweaks adjusted the screen sensitivity of the standard kwerty, and the FingerKboard, they have become absolutely excellent too.
The only problem is that I can't put any of those in ladscape position.
I have tried to reinstall Gyrator but it does not seem to work on the HD2 it seems made for devices with styluses and resistive screens.
Did anyone find a way to type messages, notes, etc. in landscape?
Is there any software other than Mobiola that works well with the HD2 ?
Mobiola doesnt work well on Oovoo .. I get all kind of green scanlines in the picture.
Does anyone know a software that actually works and connects using BLUETOOTH ?
There is WebCamera Plus, but doesn't work well either.
Is there any other software that works?
Yeah I tried WebCamera Plus, not the best software =\
I guess we are still waiting for proper tool that works with HD2.
I use qik before it works great on my Xperia..

mmh, i never used webcamera plus on my hd2, but on my omnia it worked very well Oo
Nothing happens, its a shame. Softwarecoders sleeping on trees. Since many years there are Phones with intrgrated cameras and wlan and bluetooth, but developers don't think ahead and are not able to calculate 1+1.

Hi,
what's wrong with Webcam plus?
i tried it and it worked for me. Ok, there seems to bee a bug if you set to very high resolutions. Than sometimes there is shown only a black windows and i had to restart. Did you get any more failures?
tinyCAM worked on my stock rom but not on my current Energy rom anymore...
Nice app, thanks! However tinyCam is not exactly what's of interest here. The idea is to have a regular USB web camera functionality in HD2, so you can connect it with Skype for example. tinyCam is video server. Ideally it would be great to have a simulation of some generic video camera, so you don't have to install any third party drivers/software.
