I accidentally came across this on the net. Its a hell of a plugin. Im surprised I hadnt heard of it before.
http://v2r.ag/
i saw it sometime ago, but found it a bit awkward to work with. and i couldn't get some of the icons and layouts to display properly. but the look is good.
I'm interested in the Media Player plugin....Will download shortly
So, is it free? I can't find it...
Interesting.. I cant decide if I should give it a try or not
I seen it a while ago, But didnt know it was free.

Nice find Vukile!
Odd that all of us PPC geeks would have missed this. Has anyone tried it? Is it worth it? Last time I tried a new cool UI type app (PointUI), I ended up having to hard reset....not really looking forward to that right now.
Thanks.

The UI is free, but the plugins and contact software is not.
I'll give it a try, hope this won't end in a hard reset

did you had to do a hard reset due to Pointui?
tried activeui and activeui multi touch, but it looks crappy.. maybe not for vga screens.. (X51V)

I guess I probably did not have to resort to a hard reset due to PointUI. But there is no "proper" uninstall...so it takes manually removing files and registry keys. Rather than wonder what else it left, I did a hard reset. It was a good time to flash a new ROM anyway
Unfortunately it's not very good. Both the normal as well as the multi-touch are a pain to use. I might not have noticed but what exactly is so multi-touch about it?
Wow.. what a nice find. It works perfect with my Hermes using KinOkin 1.30b Rom.. It's not strange, it just different. I like to try it more..
screwed my phone up...played hell trying to get it off....
i kind of like it....using it on my tilt....takes getting use to but the look of it i think is better than pointui....
Its like Throttle Launcher scrolling on the today screen. this app is very much underrated.. As for PointUI, SK Tools cleaned up after it and I used the softkey applet to set my softkeys again. In the same breath, if you ask me, its Mortbuttons in a different guise, at least its free.
Interesting ui, but ultimately not very good and very usable! Slow menus and unresponsive scrolling don't help.
Looks nice, but is a pain to use, will keep an eye on it though as it has potential.
Also once you uninstall it, it leaves its little installation system on your phone!

Agreed.
Works though on prophet. But not very fluently.
really like its looks and functions. it's just very very slow. otherwise, i like it more than pointui.

I reccomend to rename this thread hoping the solution - explanation how to use the camera view as background on TF3D can be accomplished.
Can not be else than some reg tweaks - but which ones...THAT is the question
Wow, thats a battery saver
But cool is that the top and bottom menu are trasparent!
My guess is that it is a picture theme and the theme is the tf3d screen, so you probably couldn'y actaully use the phone from there.
Thats what I reckon anyway
guys- look carefully at the clip.
it is not recorded - it is the camera showing live stream as you would record or take a picture.
Certainly not a battery saver as it uses the autofocus function which is mechanic and consumes more.
However, it is really cool.
ahhh... the possibilities
think this, and the beer app!! get it... see through beer glass!

Greetings to all.
looks awesome BUT, thats a CDMA diamond with 256 MB of ram and its running so slow to his gesture commands. i have a feeling that it would make your GSM diamonds puke and it would be bailrly useable for the CDMA users. HOWEVER it is very sweet!
So...it is or it isn't a fake !?

T-Mobile version is a Victor by design, not that it matters
it isnt standard anyway; ive got one. the standard rom is as slow as it gets.

At 16secs when taking the phone towards the camera he should have took the camera towards the phone: the phone's image dont change.
I believe it is really a fake. The image just doesnt look right. That swinging left/right is very unnatural.
So I vote for fake
I don't understand what the big deal is? I don't have that creative of a mind though so maybe I'm not thinking of something cool that could be done with this...
looks fake given the display angle on the screen doesn't match the angle of the camera on the subject.
i suspect it's a mirror that's used to reflect the object image onto the shinny reflective screen on the diamond. But I could be wrong.
regardless, very creative!
I'd say he just used chroma keying
Check this iPhone app out that was reported on by Engadget. Looks like a cool concept and maybe something someone is interested in integrating. Just sharing the info. Enjoy!
http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2009/05/14/emailnwalk-iphone-app-finally-lets-us-leave-the-house/
Basically for anyone that doesn't understand this it uses the camera input for the background so you can watch where your walking while typing. I think this can be done but no for devices with laggy cameras it could be done for them but I think it would be pointless. Such as the kaiser. (Though HTC camera 6.8 reduces alot of lag) Im willing to help with the UI
nice concept
lol,awesome
i might add this to my fim if its possible to hook the camera view.
I'm sorry but.... It's a nosense app!!I mean the only thing I would see behind the texting gaps would be.... THE GROUND
Think about it... when you're typing a sms you do it lookig DOWN to your device so the camera would record the ground!!!

This is true. Anyhow, I sure wasn't saying I wanted or needed this developed. I just wanted to pass it along to the community JIC someone was interested.
Keep the info coming in, ya know?
I WANT IT PLEASE would be awesome for walking and if you could use the flashlight too
I don't know how useful would this be... but it would definitely be cool!
The main use of this app would obviously be while driving or riding a motorcycle.

awesome! bring on the expo, 3d cube, and the magic lamp/fire effect!
Imagin being able to see all running apps in an expo or 3d cube, how bad ass would that be?
But, from my experience with Beryl (Compiz Fuzion), it gets kind of laggy even on my 9800gtx, but that may have been a driver issue with ubuntu.
Heres a preview of some of the beryl effects for those who have never used it http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_8ARotY86A0&feature=related
Nice! I can't wait for it!
Is this even possible? I'm running compiz on my main laptop and it would be hot to have beryl on the G1 but aren't there too many hardware limitations? Or is there a different Beryl that you're talking about?

I've been using compiz on an old p4 512ram sony vaio with no real noticeable lag, so maybe.
My biggest issue with compiz right now is that I get horizontal line breaks when I watch anything on full screen :\
I've been waiting for a compiz port for android, I can't wait. I've grown far too accustomed to having things catch on fire when I close them lol. It'll be interesting to see what they do about the keybindings though.
I use dxTop so I hope I don't have to disable it to avoid key binding conflicts but I see that happening at least in the beginning.
Awesome. With Roger FW and these effects, my phone is awesome device.
android runs a frame buffer, actual compiz could never run here. The guy is either a moron or using the term beryl to describe animations in a way people might understand. Leaning towards a moron who is just replying to a blog post since he mentions "porting".

Sorry I have never heard of a 'mddictator' and a google search does not result in much. Maybe you misread the opening post and think Haykuro made those comments? I think it is pretty clear a compositing window manager for X will not ever work on just a frame buffer.
I'm agreeing with imtehk. This kind of speculation, based on reply by an unknown in another forum is ludicrous.
The guy speaks of "beryl engines." Beryl engines, like truglass, oxygen, etc....are for the window decorator part of compiz fusion. Last time I checked, Android doesn't use X-windows with compiz fusion or any other window manager--because it doesn't have any windows! Beryl engines don't have anything to do with desktop effects like cubes, just the windows.
So mddictator is agitating the excrement or really has no idea what he's talking about. I'd be more than happy to be proven wrong, but until someone shows me the app, I'm calling BS.
I would love to see this but I am skeptical; I HOPE to be proven wrong.
For one, like it has been pointed out, Beryl is the decorator part of Compiz Fusion. I don't even have it enabled currently I think and I'm still using Compiz with Metacity style decorations.
Secondly, Compiz Fusion is a Window manager for X. Android doesn't use X nor anything slightly resembling it. The idea of switching between workspaces seems pointless to me from the way Android works it's apps. Actually, Android doesn't even have system wide workspaces (Apart from home) so implementing it would be interesting...
Having the cube effect on the Home screen would be awesome but Compiz can't really help much there to my knowledge. It would be easier to just code that from scratch. Compiz is so MUCH more than decorations and I can't see it being use.
Maybe someone is just releasing something that looks like Compiz, in which case they may have been miss quoted from someone who doesn't know what they are on about?
I think I remember the oPhone has this already anyway, so it seems very possible.
I have made a new boot animation for NRGZ28, it's still in its early stages, and can only hope I have time for more. I'm a huge fan with what he has done to my phone, and he has compelled me to give back to the community.
My goal here was simple. Sometimes I forget(as im sure some of you do to) what it was like owning a stock Rhodium, and i cant even remember what the GUI even looked like. NRGZ28's ROMS, although amazing, does not change dramatically enough for me to be mesmerized everytime i pick my phone up as it used to. Although I'm sure this wont entirely do it either, it will at least remind you of what you hold in your hand! Or something like that anyways, i was never really good at public speeches
This should work for any of his ROMS
P.S.~~if anyone could post some feedback on how far the animation goes on your devices that would be great! that means the leo, rhodium, Raphael... and any other devices that have a screen of that size, on both energyrom and stock roms.. or any roms for those devices. and if you know a way to change the length given for the animations let me know pronto!! I recieved a new warranty phone and the animation isnt playing the same length anymore. not sure if this is due to newer updated roms or the fact that the energyroms tp2 splash screen isnt on there anymore, just shows the ATT splash screen. thanks
Follow me on
Buy me a beer!
Updated July 8th!
Cabbed/Shortened/Resized---No more BS work for you!!
Additional Notes:
1) At least on my Rhodium, the last second or 2 wont play. (the fade out) It will simply hang on the image for a few seconds. (which works just as good) The orginal was 14 seconds long and i had to speed it up as i am unaware of a way to customize the time wm gives for the boot animation. So if anyone knows of a registry setting or a program that will do this. let me know ASAP!
2) I will also work on getting a sound file for it as well if this becomes popular enough.
Install
1) Download .cab
2) Installs it directly to windows
3) It will ask you to restart
Uninstall
1) Go to settings->system->remove programs
2) Will automatically put back the default animation
Please be patient as doing 3d animations takes a long time, as well as tweaking issues just to have more arise. And don't even get me started on getting a decent gif animator, and then trying to get it to do what its designed to do

hotfile download
Video Preview
Screenshots taken at different intervals(for those of you on outdated phones)
Reserved post 5
That looks really cool from the screenshots, the bouncing and then the electric explosion looking thing... haha. Cool work.
Any chance of having it just say HTC there instead of NRG? I think you would get quite a few more downloads/donations.
Also, a short video or gif would be cool so we can see what we're getting!
Idea for Startup Animation
Hi There,
I am a huge fan of energy Roms as well!
I thought the following would be cool!
X-mens wolverine blades comming through a screen shot making the famous-x and the at the bottom Energy ROM...
Wish I knew how to but maybe you can do this for us??

Hmm.. that sounds like a fantastic idea! so the problem is.. start up a new thread for more generic animations, or just change the name and make categories in this one?
Will most likely be uploading a youtube video of it today.

Yes, this was my first concept design.. but depending on where the X goes, it might require that i make hands and wrist at least(which is a little bit of work ) unless it slashes with the blades coming through the background..i forget.
i don't know the legality of putting the original wolverine slash in there, (and wheres the fun in that? ) but i will see what i can do
If anyone knows of some good x slash video's, post them up! as i seem to be having a ridiculously hard time finding any. people need to make tags better! you would think there would be hundreds popping up! but no, with the game out all i find is gameplays for origins-wolverine
i like it alot
i think its awsome. wish i had skill like that !

I went for 2 years. I got 2 weeks off for winter break, and 1 week off for summer break. if you want your summer off you can have them add another 3 months for each summer. thats just for the associates degree. its another year for the bachelor degree and that gets you ready for making video games.
