Hi mini_man,
Can you help me with the phone skin, I saw you used the HTC Dialer Skin, I read here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=311557, that there were some problems, using alot of memory and no video calling and loosing the G & 3G top icons and uninstall problems, I am not concerned about the Video calls as I never do them and I hate the touch Dual standard phone interface, I just want the normal clean looking interface. Are you having any problems with yours and where did you get it? THanks.
Your looking at the wrong dialer.

This one works fine and has video etc. It was taken from the the HTC Touch Dual Rom.

Just another performance thread, or...??

Hi all,
First, I did not want to start a thread like this, but Iam reading XDA Devs since the beginning of September '08 and I did not find anything that can really help me out with my X1 performance.
I understand this is not really primary gaming device, but...when I try game EMUlators like FPSce, pocketGBA, all games there are running damn slowly (15fps and lower), switching hardware acceleration in pocketGBA and most games just does not work. When I try classic CAB games, they are usually slow, some scrolling type games (Worms, Atomic Cannon, some RPG's, etc. does not have smooth scrolling and it looks terrible). Some problems can be a bit solved with WVGA switcher (when you switch to VGA mode, it helps performance a bit). JAVA games are just same case, slow and slow (15+- fps).
I read everywhere in reviews, that X1 got really strong hardware...but the truth? OS is slow too (what could I expect from WM, heh?), applications are slow, even the damn scrolling in the application browser (programs, settings) are damn slow and there is scroll tearing.
Does anyone of you got information about incoming updates (drivers,...) or are there any tweaks or drivers or anything that REALLY helps the X1 performance? Please, dont mention advanced tool, xperia tweak, etc. Those tweaks does not really improve the performance at all.
Last thing: dont get me wrong, I really like my X1, but these things really annoys me and I bet it annoy most of you too. Thanks for all suggestions.
Emulators...
I play many games with really nice fps on my x1...
Mostly using Morphgear
without sound ->SNes/Genesis/GamboyAdvance games ->40 fps or more
with sound -> Gamboy games -> full fps + sound
Otherwise try different PocketSnes versions and Pocket GBA (without sound)

If sounds is REALLY important for you (when playing games) then buy the Asus P565 (Touch Diamond style device without keyboard but with speeeed) !
With the P565 you can run any emulator on 100 % with sound and even FpseCE with good fps + sound.

windows wm6.5 default today plugin works not very smooth as it was,
file explorers (resco and windows explorer) scrolls same speed as it was,
3d games (virtual pool & 3d mines) works same as it was,
igo8 same as it was

HTC HD Concerns.

Hi all.
I have been using the phone for around 3months. I upgraded from Nokia E71. Here are some of my concerns.
1. On HTC HD, Opera mini 4.2 doesn't support flash menu on web sites. Why not? Nokia E71 had Opera mini 4.2 and it supports flash menu. I don't use Opera mobile because it's just too darn slow compare to mini.
2. Is there anyway I can turn off automatic pop up on virtual keyboards?
3. Is there any virtual keypads(up, down, left, right only) that stays always on top that I can orientate and position on the screen? I find having no Dpads on this phone pain in the butt, especially if you can't use stylus.
4. Is there anyway I can manually orientate screen? I would want to have it at fixed landscape for everything except when I use Phone functions and Garmin Mobile XT.
Thanks.

Making Scrolling more "Smooth" ?

Is it possible to make the scrolling more smooth? (Maybe like the iphone?)
an app or ROM that can do it maybe?
can you give us more information? which handset are you using? with which ROM?
I dont have a wm phone yet
I just watched the Iphone vs WM 6.5 from pocketnow and he said that scrolling on the iphone is just SO Smooth, and on the wm 6.5 its a little "Natchy".
So i just wandered if we could Customize the scrolling ability in wm6.5 to make it more Smooth?

There are a few programs that allow for kinetic scrolling which is found on the iPhone. Many custom and official roms have this built in of course. The video you may have been watching probably showed a rom without a scrolling driver/program. FTouchSL is a program that allows this.
Scrolling smoothness depends on processing speed of the device itself. I have a HTC Touch and scrolling in menu and lists is jerky at default CPU speed(200Mhz). When i overclock it, the scrolling appears much more fluid (btw, my ELFin goes up to 300Mhz!! Even 308 works but i use it at 300 )
Actually the differences between the iPhone and WM6.5 aren't that different.
Scrolling on the WM6.5 has kinetic scrolling built in. The difference is that Windows Mobile will change the scrolling depending on what app you are using. Most scrolling is EXACTLY like the iPhone.
The "notching" effect is only found in the later builds of the Start Menu where when you FLICK... it only scrolls one page at a time... verses scrolling all the way to the bottom... similar to the iPhones homescreen where you flick to go to the next page of app icons.
With WM6.5 you don't need any type of additional scrolling as it is already smooth and fluid. Stock WM6.5 drivers are even better then that of FTouchSL and HTC Gestures.
Few days ago a guy at work asked me whether you can even use the touch screen on Windows Mobile because he thought that's only possible with iphone. That's so RIDICULOUS (my favourite word as of recently). But I guess we can blame it on MS for launching 6.5 way too late....

I'd blame it on apple for their brainwashing of the most of the population, including looking at that latest lawsuit themselves, into believing that they are teh only ones to do anything at all ever..
Regardless of any kinetic scrolling present in Windows Mobile 6.5 or later, there really is nothing out there that will let the default WinMo apps scroll as consistently smooth as an iPhone, not even on my HD2.
There are some third party apps with excellent smooth scrolling built in (Like Resco Explorer 2010), but if you want the start menu, WinMo contacts, messaging, File Explorer etc. to have perfect smooth scrolling - it's not going to happen.
It's not terrible by any means, but you'll get the occasionally hiccup or lost frame or pause. And it doesn't seem like its running at full frame rate either - but most of the time it runs pretty well. Certainly not anything to lose sleep over
Well you can always get some Cooked ROM like Dutty`s ... I could say that it is better than my original ROM was. And I mean in all terms.
Coincidently, i have a related doubt. Is it possible to make scrolling in WM 6.5.X more fluid and bouncy like in WM 6.5 by replacing some registry setting or file?
I would like to know this too,I dont think its possible.

Im using the ROM from my Signature so its a 6.5 Build and like some peoples here say the drivers are already includet in the 6.5 Builds but i search in the rom and i found that file PhysicsEngine.ddl in my windows directory the file was only 20kb
So i download the cab scrolling bouncing 6.5.x.cab and i saw in the cab that here just have the same PhysicsEngine.ddl but its a bit diferent and is 23 KB not 20 like in my ROM.
I install the CAB and i don`t know do is placibo effect but now the scrolling is even better, so my question is from withch ROM you extract this ddl file and maybe have diference in the this files so when this is a bigger size its mean that is a bit diferent.. because if was the same size 20kb this mean is the same.
Also if this is right we can extract this ddl from the very very latest 6.5 Buld witch is posible to be more up to date and the ddl file to be even better.
It seems to me my scroll is also become better. Before it was often, that then I started to scroll, the phone recognized it as a touch and lunched what was under the finger. Now then I scroll – it scroll, then I touch – it touch.
wow
this makes scrolling much better.
Good POST

This does noticeably affect how this scrolls. Thanks so much for the cab. I am running an NRG ROM, and it has most definitely improved my scrolling abilities. GOOD WORK!!!
It's certainly better. Anyways, I once used a ROM which had a really, really smooth Windows menu. Just as smooth as iphone. But I forgot which ROM it was. I have no clue why it was so smooth : (
