Rotation effects - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps

Is there any app were u can set different effects when rotating the screen, similar to iphone and samsung omnia?
For instance, in omnia there is a tab in settings were u can change different effects when the screen is rotated.
Hope u understand what im talking about...

this is what I mean...

Wow. I, too was looking for something like this. Never knew Omnia had such a software. Coming to think of it, it would've been ported by now . Do you know the name of that program?
EDIT: Question seems to have been asked before, but no real outcome.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=2974623

its called "motion sensor" in omnia...
my girl has a omnia with the program but i dont know how to extract it
from her phone, so that someone here can make it useful for diamond.

Screen Orientation - VueFlO

Has anyone thought about linking the screen orentation to VueFLO so it automatically changes depending on the orientaiton of the device? Is this possible? I would certainly be interested

Good Idea!
would LOVE to see that....
Would VueFLO be able to tell the difference between tilting the device to the left (when in landscape) and rotating it into portrait?
A really REALLY cool idea though
Less talk and more results !!!
This would be truly a great app to have on the advantage. Anyone out there willing to build this app for us, it would be appreciated to the entire forum.
is it possible....and if so..how..?? doesnt VueFlo..uses manual buttons..can any1 care to explain if its possible or not..buh if it is..then it wud be great
i would to wite a programe for VueFlo on athena but i can't find any way for connect to VueFlo
i would write the programe for a thing like anti thief
it mean for example if i take athena on the table and turn the programe on, then if someone takeit, it play a sound and ...
i hope you can underestand my post

Eybi nadare dadash.. Your english is just fine...
And that sounds like a great idea... look, i do some xcode programming for iphone and being a close plathform i feel you can do more on that then Athena. dont get me wrong i love my Athena and i wouldnt change it but i think it is capable of so much more ... i broke my x7500 and got iphone and wasnt doin it so i got another athena. i use the both and i love my athena more than i phone....

Believe me, If I could, I would.
Some coding god needs to reverse engineer to vueflo apps to work out how the hardware is accessed. After that, any coder can do it just like the iphone/ipod people are all making stuff that uses the accelerometer in them.
Its not an easy task. We need somebody in HTC to leak the details really.
Arya, so you were never able to fix your phone call recording problem? The built-in recorder handles it, I forget now why you were still having a problem. Off-topic, I know, discuss on the original thread.
On-topic, the motion sensor on the hard drive is just that... a motion sensor. Not an orientation sensor (like mercury switches are). Just turning the unit on its side won't let the OS know its now on its side, however, by adding some kind of motion code it will work just fine. Like shaking it twice downward in the direction you want to be down. Shaking it once would produce too many false changes, but twice or maybe 3 times would send the right message.
This type of phone input has been in the news a lot lately, along with vibration as a feedback. The idea on the news is you would shake your phone to see if you have any messages waiting, and it would vibrate back if you do. Unfortunately since the Athena doesn't have a vibration motor the output part isn't possible, but the input part is, since it has the motion sensors already! (the lack of vibration is one of the top-5 flaws of this device, IMO, hopefully it will get added on the X7502)
So, taking the topic of this thread one step further, how about creating an application that launches apps based on motion input? Yes I know there is a program out there that lets you reprogram most of the function buttons to do this (I forget its name at the moment, I haven't bought it yet), but adding motion to this mix would be so much cooler!
shake it baby?
these ideas seam very good but sahaking it multiple times and to open programs seams like it may cause problems because our device is just tooo big, imagine to shake or rotate ur device a specific way to get pie running (maybe it could be shaken to the rythem of ur favourite song (which has to be the Smashing Pumpkins..) and it shakes out of your hand on to the concrete pavement below wooops!!! just imagine the insurance form for that
Well, the unit's motion sensitivity is quite high. Easily confirmed by changing the viewflo sensitivity to high and then gently tilting the unit when you are in a browser. You wouldn't have to create martinis or milkshakes to launch an app, just a gentle flick or two will do. A downside of all this is carrying it around would present problems (either on your belt or in your hand). Even if you ignore the g-sensors when the cover is on, the cover-on switch is so faulty you might get to work and find that you wired $150 Euros to the Red Cross and sent all your checking account information to some guy in Nigeria.

1 reason of many i can think of is Iphone look alike
Hi, i'm interested in an iphone-like app too.
I still can't understand why HTC inserted a hardware which can handle with orientation, and then it's only possible to use scolling in PIE or Opera.
Why not Scrolling in PIE AND Opera. I love this feature, and want it always and for other apps too, like Rotate Screen automaticly, skip music file or backwards in WMP, Forward/backward in PIE/Opera when moved left/right.
I don't unterstand this. The difficult part is the integration of hardware, and HTC didn't develop a simple app which makes the hardware really do what it is supposed to do.
I even don't believe they added the G-Sensor for the Microdrive.
nothing new?
even with the new softwares incluede in devices such as Omnia or Diamond?

[REQ] answer a call like Touch Hd

Hi everybody,
does someone know, if it's possible to write a tool or simple change files to answer or ignore a call like the new touch hd?
I saw on a kaiser rom, that someone use this way.
i put a pic, so you can see what i mean
hallo everybody

Bumping for justice!
QVGA devices already have that
good luck guys
so we have to hope that some genius can make a VGA version
I am looking for ways to minimize missed calls. I do realize there is sylus lock, sensorlock and answerkey disabler but i find they all have limitations before I answer eg I dont want to take out stylus to answer a call, rotate a phone to answer, etc. If I understand this correctly when you get a call you swipe one way or the other to either accept or reject a call. I think this would be the best option. Hopefully one of the talented people here can have this for the vga screen

even in the newest version s2u2 still sucks out the power from my battery.
yes you can use s2u2, but i dont like the Callerid from s2u2. I would like to use the "nearly" original callerid from Windows. So we have to wait
this looks really great...is there a video to see how smooth the slide effect is on this?
also, is that really from the touch hd?
i was thinking of somthing like that as well, but also hooked with a regular screen lock check it out @ http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=432021
Looked at Kaiser section and downloaded the cab/oem pack for Opal Dialer (the dialer we are looking for).
I didn't understood if it is a 3g or standard dialer, for sure it's just for QVGA devices...do you think that's sufficient to rearrange all pics to VGA resolution to let it works on our diamond?
exactly, this is we are looking for.
It would be great if someone is able to rearrange the icons to make it run on a diamond
Isnt it worth just waiting for a port of the Touch HD ROM for our Diamonds im guessing its built into the new TF3D as well as other new features.
hehe
I have same request
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=431762
but no result
looks very cool...
IDEA!
We can make a "reward thread" (maybe it will become a sticky) asking for a dealer with these features:
- all standard manila ones (vga,videotelephony support and flip to mute ring mainly)
-slide to answer/reject as the opal one
-lighter (in program memory consuption) as possible
An hibryd between manila/opal dealer in poor words...
When someone will realize this app all thread subscribers will donate him something...
This will solve all problems with unintentional answering to calls.
I imagine that this feature will be included in the next firmware update, but until then I would not mind to have a port from Touch HD.
I love s2u2, however this would make a very nice addition to my diamond
I made a simple edition to S2U2 so It looks more like the Touch HD answer screen...
Just a fun thing really
Copy the images to the 'gfx' folder of S2U2...

[IDEA] PSP like ui for diamond

Is it possible to make a PSP "crossmenu" ui ,theme or whatever.
I mean the PSP menu is very sleek and add a phone/contacts tab and u will have a nice userfriendly ui.
Only some simple finger/stylus gestures to navigate and some simple graphics for the looks.
I can make my idea more clear soon (in photoshop) thou i cant "program" at all but i can photoshop a little and will be glad too help .
thanks ,AssyxXx
ps. I reserve myself for some bad writing im typing this on my diamond.
EDIT : made some Phs before school so they're really quick
I think you may love the multimedia panel of the Xperia X1

I've started making a theme for TF3D based on a PSP/PS3 xmb... it'll be posted soon
this would be nice and with the gsensor it would be fly as hell
just like the sony ericsson phones nowadays (like the c902)
BUT i dont really think it's really handy if you want all the TF3D functions...
it would just act as a menu.. not as a interface to read email/sms..
if there was a today plugin that could support flash i could make it..
if anybody knows one pm please (allthough i dont think it exists)
will animated today not work? - that's a flash based today plugin
Well first of all Xperia isnt my thing it ''talk the talk but does'nt walk the walk''
Second I will make some Phs pics so u can see more clearly what i mean.
I might be going over my head but isnt it possible to replace the whole WM?
Please ,post some of you're ideas to this we could make it the ''Perfect UI''
This does certainly got some potential according to me

does that software capable to sense your finger/stylus to change 'pages' ?
its not free, and you need 3rd party software..
if it was free it could've been great.
and warezing this product isnt very xda like

Got myh HD2 and here is my first question...

It is gorgeous and for the last 3 days all's I have done tweak/upgrade and generally have fun with all the possibilities.
One thing I am a bit disappointed with is the font display on the home screen in the quicklinks - the font is so small it just does not seem to display correctly...and some of the links I have added to the quicklinks seem a bit pixelated...
Is there anything I can do about this?
Thanks

i dont get it either but i guess they want phone that works out of the box and they dont want to spent time tweaking it(best part about windows mobile, cause u can make your phone look like exactly the way u want ) and maybe cause of appstore? dunno about that cause itunes are very bad imho... slow and doesnt let u do what u want...
well everybody likes somethin else...
Activating Cleartype fixes the pixelation in the fonts you referred to. To turn it on go to Settings>Menu>All Settings>System>Screen and select the Cleartype tab.
Excellent that has made such a difference - the small title text for each Quick Link is still a bit fussy - or it just maybe be me....
I love this phone!!!
Thanks
Scott
Just did a restart and found the text is now truely clear - so I revoke my fussy statement from before.

Almost sold my HTC Touch Pro 2 but ...

Almost sold my HTC TP2 but SOMETHING told me to wait .. Problem was I was not happy with anything about it except the quality and feel ... I have been using the iphone for over a year now. got so used to that who interface. Someone said try the SPB Mobile shell .. I did .. had an old version from I don't know how many years ago .. Didn't do it for me ... then I went to see what the latest looked like .. WHAT AN IMPROVEMENT .. After than I installed the idial pad and the icontacts freeware and my phone I believe is going to pass up my iphone. I will be passing that to my son. There are a few apps that I will miss but I might find a replacement if I keep looking .. The most missed will be the program for looking at my eBay auctions and second is something called Glucose Buddy .. iphone just makes things so simple ..
gladd that u searched and did some mods and u love your phone. cuz i do to.
Hmm... why did you get the tp2 if you had an iPhone?
DOUBLE POST .. hmmm .. how did I do that ?
I bought it because I like windows mobile .. I don't like paying to put music on my phone, I don't like paying for ringtones... on too many occasions I paid for something and it got lost ??? I don't know how, but whatever was just GONE and couldn't get it back... ON and ON ... I wish WinMo would react to touch a little better, more like the iphone, but it is close enough.
ALSO: I am a gadget-a-holic. I saw one that someone had and just had to have it ..

It makes the menu in file explorer all fit in one screen...stock and some roms make the menu finger friendly, where you have to scroll up and down to see the rest of the menu options.
At the risk of sounding like I should have my phone taken away from me and replaced with an old Nokia or Motorola .. Is there a ROM that would transform this phone into an iphone sort of ?? What I miss the most is that with the iphone there is no digging. There is an icon for settings and the rest of the icons are applications .. I like that because I feel lost every time I pick this phone up .. Yesterday I had to go somewhere and didn't want to have that, "how do I ??" look on my face so I put my sim in my iphone and left my HTC at home ..

Every Sense 2.5 rom offers you today screen with roll-up-applications-on-a-screen (specially Cookie`s amazing Home Tab + editor), plus every important notifiaction on a screen. If you don`t wanna change your rom, you can install Iphone today, it gives you exactly same screen interface like Iphoney - no digging, just taping and you getin` there. Check it out:forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=508429.
Thanks for the iphone today skin info. I installed it and I am tweaking this and that .. I know windows mobile people hate hearing "I love my iphone." But I will say this .. I HATE THE FACT THAT I LOVE IT .. but I miss all the other bennys that come with owning something OTHER than the iphone .. I am now happy to have the best of both worlds.
Lately my eyes are getting older [ I AM NOT THOUGH ] and I have a hard time with windows mobile, especially making calls while driving. So don't get me wrong people .. I love Windows Mobile. I love HTC phones .. I hate Apple ANYTHING .. but I not only WANT but NEED the big icons etc that I have on my iphone .. I hope to be selling my iphone or giving it to my son if he still wants it, in the near future .. He is actually talking about getting the HTC HD2 I think ..
well i know that you can increase the text size but i myself never really did check to see if it did work since i can see but go under settings -> system -> screen. then go to the text size and adjust it from there. not sure if it would work or not but hope it does do the trick for ya
You can configure SPB Mobile Shell 3.5.3's home screen to be almost a dead ringer for iPhone. I understand the thing about picking up the phone and feeling lost, but only when I'm supremely inebriated, sleepy, or trippin' pretty hard. I got SPB set up with 3 pages of quicklinks for 95% of the things I do with my phone. I like to leave the stuff that can temporarily bork the phone in a place that has to be dug out to find...

There is also an exact shell replacement that mimics the upcoming WM7.
