- Fix all trueVGA graphical problems. Icons, screens, etc. I would like to run in trueVGA full time without having these types of issues.
- Unlock Extended ROM so people can put their own apps in for the next hard reset. ;-)
- Put the "Tray Display" utility into the ROM so people can show or hide their trays. File name "traydisplayinstall_196.CAB".
- Setup the "BlueTooth Tray Status & BT Audio Util" on the ROM. File name "btIO-0.5.CAB".
- Maybe the functionality to add/remove program icons from the tray without having to modify the registry? ;-)
- All black VGA theme. Similar to the default WM6 theme but all black.
- If possible, maybe an updated version of Pirazu so we can control a mouse cursor with the joystick?
- Alternative to BlueMouse so we can use a BT mouse cursor on the device. BlueMouse is nice but it costs.
Make it work like "Touch" may be the looks....

Yes...how did I forget this. For sure trying to tie the vueFlo into other apps and possibly games, etc.

For me, these first five would be a darn good start.
- With #1 - Usable dialer in TrueVGA would be #1 on my list.
Couple more (may already be fixed in WM6, but have yet to plunge):
- WiFi On/Off is flaky unless you actually go into the Comm Manager (e.g., PhoneAlarm and other programs are not effective)
- I still have problems doing multiple mappings to Win and OK buttons. AEBPlus does this kinda, but then other buttons get mucked up. Given few number of buttons, this is really limiting.
Wish list:
- USB-powered Beer Tap. I know the low-power port might be an issue, but I'm sure this should be doable. Integration with MS VC would also be great, "Computer, pour beer." (All I can say is, it's been a long day!)
Actually I should have just put mapping of the vueFlo API. That should open up the rest of the developers to building cool widgets also.

That would be cool! I'm in favour!
i think rotate screen would a great feature when you see a photo .
widcomm bluetooth stack =) for dun
also a way to use another windows phone as a bt headset like the touch (if possible)
Solid & Fast ROM compatible with previous backups
Damn guys...you're not asking for much are you...hehe. Actually I quite like the sound of the all Black VGA ROM with Touch like interface.
But hey, I'll settle for a an all black super reliable and damn fast ROM in vanilla favour.
You guys have made some great suggestions, that I can't argue with. All I can say..is I'd love a ROM that I can use my Spb Backup files with...without corrupting any software, so when you release version 0.1, 0.2 etc...it will still be compatible with my backup files, making the switching of ROM's a quick thing to do.
I hate my phone being out of action. and having to re-install everything again.
I third the black vga theme. Also in vga mode is it possible to make the start bar a little bigger so it is more finger friendly. Something the size of when it it is in qvga mode would be great. Also when you push the start bar and the drop down list pops up it would be great if that was larger with larger text. Also at least for me in vga mode in wm6 none of the 3g, signal strength icons show up in the start bar only the time does.
The only thing i'm against is the vueFlo. Except the part about using vueFlo to sense when to rotate the screen.

here try this
WARNING...THIS IS NOT REVERSIBLE....NOT WITHOUT CHANGING SOME REG. ENTRIES... AT LEAST (and i don't know which one's need to change!!)
works well with se VGA too esp. if you have fading eyesight!!!
How about an icon on the task bar that rotates screen.
Also, when using the device in QVGA mode, smaller icons on today screen, start/program screen, start/setting screens.
When in VGA mode, but running a QVGA program , show a matching size bigger soft key buttons.
Show connection icons (H, 3G, G) correctly when in true vga mode.
Hi, where can i get this rotating home screen, shown in this vid:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-bNtHCOpZlQ
Thx in advance!

Glad you liked my video
Anyways if you read this thread you will find lots of stuff to help you out with Ultimate Launch!
Great app!

Make UltimateLaunch Full Screen
I found the best utilization of UltimateLaunch is to make it occupy the full today screen and include current today screen in it in addition to any prog shortcuts.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=365334
Full screen for me is 267 pixels under the "Fixed plugin-height" section of the Display tab. Its a great program that will even let you use your existing today plugins (like HTC Home, quicklauncher, and many more) within one of its tabs. The Youtube video above says it all.
Agreed Guys, amazing program but I require a bit of help.
I had 3 sides of a cube, and it was working perfectly even after a SR.
I added a 4th side with SPB Weather and some contacts using SmartUtilitie's Makecall.exe. and it works great until I SR then after the today screen is blank, I check the settings and UL is still checked.
Only way to get it working again is to uncheck, SR, and recheck, then it works until next SR. ANY IDEAS???? Really love this proggie.
Sometimes I faced this problem of another page appearing in the wrong place.. interesting is I can actually access that plug-in which shouldn't be there!
Sometimes I also experience redraw problem in the page. After 'rotating' it a few times, everything is back to normal.
I read alot in the Blackstone section and I guess some Blackstone owners missed this little tool :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=442426
I posted it for the X1 but since the resolution of the X1 and the Blackstone is the same..
I hope it will work on the Blackstone too
It works nicely with emulators, SKYFIRE Beta 0.85 etc etc .

A week ago I received my X1 and tried WVGA Fix (Version 1) ! It didnt work...
After some searching i found a improved Version -WVGA FIX 2- now supporting all WM 5, 6, 6.1 and WVGA devices.
This little Program virtually "cuts" the pixels bigger than VGA from your device.
Dont get scared.. This only happens as long as you run the program.
Those pixels get black and the program emulates a VGA screen.
When you choose to get back to WVGA everything is fine again
So most programms (not only emulators) will work fine on our nice WVGA screen.
I thought some people here will love this tool too.
PS:Install the cert first, then WVGA FIX2 second.
Cheers !

Tried it already, Pocket UFO runs thanks to it.
Thanks! This has allowed me to try out SkyFire...
J
It doesn't work for me.
It change allways the display to landscape before freezing.
Hmm, SCUMMVM ???
yup I missed that... nice, definitely allows me to run some apps that otherwise screwed up... Especially skyfire
@vincent1: yes the rotation is annoying and not required, but it does Not freeze your phone. Your display mode changes and you still see the fix app running but it's just a frozen screen, press the today hard button and you will see manila, which instantly forces the screen to rotate back to portrait, after which you got normal VGA screen (except part of manila is missing). Now you can run any vga app you like. Just switch back to the fix program to undo the res change, press home again to fix the landscape mode, etc.
@nin2thevoid
thanks mate! Yep, pressing the today hard button is the secret

NP... I use AEButton by the way and have assigned long press of the volume up button to rotate the screen clockwise (I don't always like g sensors to do this for me). This gives an instant fix to this problem as well, and it un-freezes the program instantly.

I can confrim the above and the only way to solve it is to take the battery out as the screen does not react to tap.
hi
any news about this ?
Because I'm getting the same problem
I've tried this and it doesn't work on my HD. the phone becomes unusable.
Is there any other software to enable VGA programs? I'd like to run PocketUFO again.
any good for the hd2 ?.

Instruction:
Make sure that that TF3D installed and works like it should in portrait mode
Get latest MortScript from here. Tested with latest beta (preferable).
Install MortScript on your X1
Unzip attached script and put in your \Windows\StartUp (or localized name) folder on your X1
Softreset (or run script manually)
Report
The basic idea is VERY simple - just prevent screen rotation while TF3D is active and allow landscape for any other apps.
Script dynamically switches between landscape and portrait modes if keyboard is unfolded and device is switched from TF3D to “normal” app or vice versa.
If you are using standalone SPb Mobile Shell (not as a panel) this script prevent show "SPb Now screen" on wakeup if TF3D is onscreen.
Now with real prevention of landscape for TF3D.
Drawback - camera button remapped to right softkey while TF3D is on screen. Looking for solution.
Version History:
v1.0
+ Initial Version
v1.1
+ Added ability to autodisable "SPb Now on wakeup" while TF3D on screen
v1.3
+ Real prevention of landscape for TF3D. Camera button not functional while TF3D is on screen.
v1.4
+ While TF3D is on screen right softkey button works as camera button
+ If TF3D isn't on screen right softkey buttion works as right softkey (hardcoded)
Please include in report TF3D version (source) and type of TF3D use (Today/Panel).
I like simple and effective solutions, kudos

OK, so test it.
And don't forget to report.
Just developed new script for people who use SPb Mobile Shell not as a panel.
I’m personally prefer use SPb Mobile Shell in that way because I like fullscreen look and feel of Mobile Shell (and Mobile Shell Panel doesn’t support Russian).
This script include functionality of TF3D landscape workaround plus prevent SPb “Now Screen” to be shown in case that TF3D active.
If you don’t have SPb Mobile Shell you can use this script as well, it will function only as TF3D landscape workaround in that case.
Installation instruction in first post.
Just tried it. It works. When the phone switch to landscape mode when you slide out the keyboard, it switches it back to portrait mode.
Although i really wished that this script stops TF3d to switch to landscape mode entirely. so we dont see that ugly ass half pixelated screen at all

It's just my first mobile script.
I'll try to find out is total prevention possible becase I don't like ugly screen on nice device too.
But anyway it's better to have ugly screen for 1-2 seconds than ugly screen all the time.
Just developed new solution with real prevention of landscape for TF3D.
Drawback that camera button not works while TF3D on screen. Looking for solution.
New version in first post.
1.3 works fine, camera has no issues.
using Itje 2.2 tf3d as today plug In
1.3 works, but it disabled the camera button as stated
Using UK generic ROM, tf3d as panel. fix it fix fix fix fix!
Thanks btw!

Just wondering how you got yours to work? I have the same ROM as yours, but nothing works on my phone...won't go into portrait mode at all

did you follow the instructions exactly? do you get any error messages?
i originally used the version of this with the spb fix in it (for no reason than I could) then replaced the 1.3 file. Can't see how that would make any difference.
I am using the b10 of mortscript btw, but don't think that makes any difference.
Karlson nice script, I might try some different plugins, if I can get the old BIG VGA home plugin working from the x7500 that would look great in landscape. I've never been that impressed by this action screen..
Think about it I might just try some of my old Rltoday screens.
Very nice fix
my TF3D screen doesn't rotate anymore Thank you

Share your ideas - I can make more scripts for any automation.
Just published new version.
Camera button remaped to right softkey.
If TF3D isn't active right softkey works as default (hardcoded).
Please post any suggestion especially if you need different right softkey functionality.

Well, it would be nice if you could wrap a small UI around your app. Perhaps a landscape disable "toggle" and right softkey remap toggle as well? I'm going to try it again, see what it does now.

for TF3D, I have Version 3.0 (Build 32076) <-- This one came with itje's Touch-IT Xperience ROM v.2.2
for MortScript, I'm using the latest one from the link you provided
using V1.4 looks better
just a little problem though, when i slide out my keyboard it kick back to portrait then came back to landscape --> improvement, it stay in landscape, last try it will always kick back to portrait.
when i slide in, it close the cmEXlandscape perfectly
GREAT JOB!
THANKS!!
Cheers
Has anyone tried this with TF3D as a panel?
Also, what happens when I slide open the keyboard, does it rotate back to portrait or does it show the tabs, but as shortcuts on the screen?

Simply irresistible offer
I'd realy like to use my right softkey to start recording voice notes (single press to star recording, not "record while holding")
Hi, I need one of these for landscape device (i-mate JAQ3). I'd also like to ask which version will be the best for my phone, I know it's quite slow, but I really hope you can help me guys . Thanks for all.
Check here and next time hit the search button before start a new thread....please.
Ahh...forgot to say: No there isnt the new Manila 2d(Weather on Home) in landscape.
