VGA screens of your handheld browsing?

Since my wee JAM is dead (£85 to fix) I'm getting an XDA Exec to replace it - the 640x480 screen with WiFi and 3G appeals to me, since I no longer have a portable PC for my WiFi connection downstairs, and I wanna browse in bed!
Can someone post screens on the actual things browsing? Thanks!

Holy... Effing.. Jesus.
Sold.
EDIT: The Windows site is really terrible when it comes to promoting what their SW can do.... those few screens are fantastic...
Do us a favour, could yo also try http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?q=belfast&spn=0.005190,0.016145&hl=en as well, and what are you using to grab the screens as a matter of interest vijay?

I use Visual Studio 2005, which comes with a program called Remote Zoomin.
If you don't want to install this, use this:

Fantastic!

Hey vijay555,
What software is used to generate the "desktop" line screen view, rather than the "today" screen?
Also, what did you use to set VGA (I know of the VGA install available here - which I've tried)
However what did you do to display your dialer pad without the buttons being cropped?
And for anyone else, anyone yet know of a fix that allows us to toggle between VGA and QVGA depending on application?
Regards
Michael

Michael: the top two pictures are from a Universal running the VGA hack here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=32217&highlight=
Not that it's important I think, but i'm using VJNina font modfied from from the SPV phone; I've also minimised my scrollbars down.
The second two are using Terminal Services to log onto an XP Media Center PC. I'm using my VJFullscreenTSC app to make it entirely fullscreen:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=33759&highlight=
So the "desktop" start bar is coming from XP Media Center, on the PDA
I don't get your question about the Dialer buttons.
If you mean this in VGA:
this is using my VJBigPhone app
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=33971&highlight=
All are detailed ony my website www.vijay555.com
Another hack I'm working on is to minimise the soft buttons (the blue menu buttons at the bottom) down to a smaller size, relocate the Today tray and ultimately remove the Start Bar:

PS I don't think there's a dynamic VGA QVGA switcher yet

Vijay, great work by the way...
After much consideration, the only application I want in VGA on my Qtek 9000 is Internet Explorer Mobile. Is there any way to just make that program run in high-resolution? Everything else could be QVGA as far as I'm concerned.
I just don't like the idea of installing a ton of hacks and having to soft-reset between needs.

I swear I am starting to dribble
How about a screen shot of video playing too???

thank for this help. it is useful for me in my project

PocketDos glitching graphics in Street Rod 1 & 2 Game...any help

I started using PocketDos First, its the demo/trial version. I am trying to play either version 1 or 2 of the classic dos game "street rod" by california dreams. I have pocketdos loaded, the nag screen clears and then i execute SR to open the game. I get a choce of video options, ega, cga, vga etc. I use vga as its the only choice that semi works. Game loads up just fine and looks great. Sound works too! 2 problems. First the mouse doesent calibrate properly. I have tried to recalibrate the mouse from the menu and it works for roughly 3 clicks or so and the mouse is then uncalibrated again and off by quite alot. Secondly and most importantly, once you exit your garage to either head to the burger joint to race, or the gas station to fill up. the graphics from the inside view of the car are all glitchy. from the top of the dash and up(windshield) looks fine, but below the dash, all the gauges, steering wheel, and shifter console are displaying strange blinking graphics. Basically you cannot drive a vehicle because of this graphics issue. When your in the garage everything works great! any ideas as to why the graphics would glitch while driving? I have a post on a forum where the pocketdos tech support is...but they are not very willing to help. I have also tried a couple other emulators listed in this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=1276884
however i either couldnt figure out how to configure the emulator, or once i got the game loaded the Mouse didnt work at all and i couldnt navigate thru the game.
Here is the link to the forum where i was asking for help from the pocketdos admins
http://forums.pocketpcfaq.com/viewtopic.php?t=19883
And here are a couple screenshots of the game running on my advantage..the last two shots show what the graphics are doing when i try to drive....if you have any advice, please let me know. And these screenshots are from POCKETDOS, walls port i cannot get the mouse to click, so i'm currently only able to use this emulator, pocketdos.

I am now trying walls port pDOSBox2.0. I get the game to load, everything seems to be ok, i can see the mouse in game, but when i click...nothing happens..the pointer isnt registering the clicks in game..any ideas if I am going to use this port? I just want to be able to play this retro game on my advantage! Thanks for your help

and just so everyone knows the game works perfectly on a windows machine..so its not something wrong with the game itself

I know its kinda a tough question, as its probably got to be answered by a person with PocketDos experience....I know your out there somewhere oh wise pocketdos person
on a side note..anyone else ever play either of the two dos games back in the day?

nobody out there has experience with pocketdos?

Well here is my response from the pocketdos support:
Dear Sir,
It appears as if this software is using a hardware feature of the EGA/VGA chipset which is not supported by PocketDOS. Unfortunately, this feature is non-trivial to implement in PocketDOS, and is used by very few software titles as it is not even supported by all VGA chipsets. In short, there is no way to run this software correctly under PocketDOS.
Thank you for your interest.

[APP][25.09.08]HTC Touch Diamond VR Hologram v2.02

VR Hologram very similar to the wii Head Tracking VR demo made famous on youtube.
Uses G-Sensor to track tilt and update the VR Hologram view accordingly. 3D Hologram created using Managed Direct 3D Mobile (MD3DM). Found it easier to learn than the Managered wrapper for Opengl ES.
This is my first 3D app / game and also my first windows mobile app so be gentle but your comments, recommendations and criticisms are more than welcome. Been checking out this forum for over a year now but never really contributed.

Change Log
v2.02
Control Panel Added
Reverse tilt direction
Control affect of Moving Average Smoothing
Control tilt distance
Use set sprite locations or random sprite locations
Choose number of random sprites (5 - 20)
Choose from pre-set sprite texture (thanks to the submissions on this thread)
Choose custom texture image from file system
N.B. Limited allowed image size to 150kb
certain images (haven't been able to determine why) cause the application to crash. No exception is raised by HTC's implementation of MD3DM so cannot investigate. Just restart app and texture falls back to a preloaded texture.
Displays Average Frames Per Second over recent frames
Settings saved to file and are applied once app restarted
v1.0
First Release
MD3DM Graphics
G-Sensor view tilt (smoothed using moving average)
Nav sensor zoom
Tap screen to exit
HTC Diamond Sensor SDK (Thanks Koush)
Smoothing of G-Sensor reading essential as output is definately not. Kalman filter would have been ideal but the maths involved just goes beyond me. Moving average more than sufficient though.
Hopefully if I have time this concept can be carried forward into a game using either MD3DM or Opengl ES.
This is a concept app but can also be used to show those without the Diamond it abilities
Check it out on youtube
Hope you enjoy!! Let me know of any bugs
EDIT: Default orientation of diamond for the app is laid flat due to how the G-Sensor reading are intepreted. Diamond laid flat facing up to have a view straight down.
It appears that MD3DM drivers on the diamond are not complete as setting the app to draw fullscreen causes the render not to be presented on to the screen.
Confirmed phones that this app works with are:
Touch Diamond
MDA Compact IV
Touch Pro
For the following phones please refer to: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2972398&postcount=417 (Pillermann Columbus)
Touch HD
Touch Diamond 2
For those that are experiencing slow FPS e.g. 0.14fps then please try installing the ATI Drivers: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=475493
By no means is this app optimized to run as quick as possible. Also the FPS is just an average FPS so gives a benchmark indication but it isn't the most accurate.

i have just 3 letters for this: WOW
After installing:
Does not work properly for me. The depth perspective moves. So only when the diamond lays flat on the table i see the background. Otherwise the depth moves out of the picture. This was not how it look likes on youtube
Image example added. This was with the phone laying with the right side down and the left side up.

Nice work. Looks really sweet. Keep it up

THANK YOU VERY MUCH!
I am testing it on my Touch Pro right now...
EDIT: Working great on my PRO! It even zooms in-out using the touch pad...!
FANTASTIC!!!

How do is install the sensor software?
And is it essential?
It looks nice on youtube!

Awsome! Thanks daddy!

thx look nice

It works perfectly! Thank you for sharing! Keep up the good work.

congratulations! nice app! love it!

niiiice!
imagine what could be done with this effect...
one little thought - i think if you made the perspective change "slower" with the tilt, it might look better, right now it seems that the perspective angle changes faster than the tilt angle.
and it would be great if it was possible to have these circles be in perspective (becoming oval) to add to the 3d effect

WOW !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sorry I didn't mention it originally but the default orientation of the phone is flat so that the app looks correct. The youtube clip was recorded with the diamond held flat.
I have updated the original post.

Very very cool! Nice job my friend!

Thanks for the comments - I'll try and tweek the tilt settings a little, thought I had it about right.
My experience with MD3DM is very limited. Not sure how to modify its texture perspective handling but I will look into it.

error
I have a problem. I installed but when I go to do aprtire tells me this erroe:
the sample has run into an error and needsto close : driver invalid call exception

Posts on how this effect can be utilised in cool new apps and games are also welcome. Hopefully we can start something new with the diamond.

hmm.....
I guess you have a Touch Diamond?
What rom are you running as the exception leads me to believe you have a driver missing? This could be sensor drivers or MD3DM graphics driver.

Wow that's great, thanks!
It doesn't fill the whole screen on WVGA, however. Can you fix this?
Two suggestions:
1) You could place the chords at the top like in this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n23WEqqrP0I AND/OR
2) You could place the frets under the strings so that we can directly play the right notes.
Suggestion 1) would be especcially useful for the Touch HD, which has only two hardware buttons but a a lot of free space on the screen for the chords. I'd also be happy to donate/pay for your app if you could make that possible.
Again, thanks for developing that great app for WM!

WOW, Let me try this

Found it lol good video btw !! awesome app very promising too ... high quality sound ... this app rocks!

On Touch HD, exactely as your piano app, it doesn't fill the screen, but this is not the worst problem: the app stays in foreground and there's no way to shut it down if not a soft reset. It looks good, but i had to uninstall both of them because of this

Omniano......Now this..........Thank You for the guitar. Just what I was looking for. Keep up the great work

thank you motha RUSSIA kool app to show off to our rivals the iskumm

Sweet Guitar Sir!!!! Sticking and unsticking the chords is still a bit clunky , but the reaction time and interface is spot on..

I can't speak for the guitar app, but in Omniano there is an EXIT button right in the upper middle of the screen that shuts down the program quite effectively.

ther is a X button top left corner check it out carefully

Installed to storage card and tested quickly and it is fun - One bug though - Don't let S2U2 initialize while guitar running as you won't be able to unlock device - mine did and I tried to slide to unlock and all it did was play guitar strings, couldn't unlock - Didn't soft reset to get it out - not sure how but somehow through a combination of buttons I was able shut screen off and on again and get start somehow as S2U2 flashed on and off - hit it quick and got it to home screen. I wasn't worried - soft reset wouldn't have been that big of a pain. Anyway - remember to disable S2U2 to avoid the hassle. Testing further as this is fun

Thank You So Much This Amazing !!!!!

lol when i first use this app on my PPC last night. I wanted to try stairways to heaven. lol it works the sound everything good.. Im Supporting This App all the way.!! thanks

wow, iperov! your guitar is fantastic, and quick response!!
for your nice app!

The program is amazing! It's not really working on my kaiser though, the sound stutters and is full of clicks. Anybody else try this app on a kaiser? Thanks for help.

processor Qualcomm MSM7200 is too slow for high-response apps.

Don't work for me
It don't play any sound, 'x' and 'reset'-button don't work, and pressing the same hardware-button a second time to set a chord isn't possible. Maybe it's my device.
I tried to use it on my LG KS20 (WM6.0).
Edit:
Ahhh.... okay.... the answer is in the post before.... I've got this MSM7200 processor..... thanks anyway

i cant download for that site
please anyone upload it here or in www.mediafire.com

Tryimg to disable fullscreen apps

While I'm glad that Samsung has decided by themselves that my games need to run in fullscreen, I have text and buttons scrolling off the screen I can barely get to, or can't read at all because of this. How do I disable this and get my games back? When I go into the display settings, the apps are greyed out and do not give me an option to shut this off.

Hey there,
Another way to disable fullscreen is to press the all apps button in the nav bar and then that small black button you can see in the screenshot. That disable fullscreen for me. But keep in mind that there are apps that automatically change to fullscreen because they are optimized for that.
Hppe that helped you out.
Which games do you mean especially?
Then i could try it myself

Sorry, I tried to attach a screenshot last night and I don't know why it didn't work. I shall try again here, but when I choose the All Apps sort, I have no black button anywhere except the bottom left of the screen which hides the navigation bar from the settings screen, but does nothing for my games. Also, yes, as you mentioned, this is one of those games that Samsung wants to say is "optimized" and disables the option for me to turn it off. Been playing this game for about a year(?) and this did not happen until about a week ago. WWE Champions is the name. You can see the titles in each section being cropped off and you kind of make out a button to the right of "Expedition", or "Xpedition" on my screen that is almost completely hidden.

Ok i have the same pronlem with the game.
I forgot to attach the screenshot in my first response.
I'll attach it now that you know what i actually meant.
You could try to contact the support and tell them the game is not correvtly sized.
If you are rooted you can try to edit your screen resolution so that the game could(don't know if that would even works)
Sorry i couldn't help more

I appreciate the help, but, yeah, I have had complaints about Samsung's Game Tools ever since I've owned this phone and this will likely be my last Samsung phone if I can help it. Was so much happier with my old Nexus 6P stock Android.

Hey, I have the exact same problem.
I've updated to Android 9 with my S9+ Yesterday and then I found out that the WWE SuperCard game is stretched because of this problem. The system thinks it's optimized for the screen but it isn't.
Is there any solution for this problem?

Android 9 sucks! Trash ! Rubbish !
Prefer 8.1 Oreo

I think it primarily turned out to be a developer issue. Their code was causing it to look bad until they patched it. I gave up on the game eventually, but I also ditched my S8+. Went with the Pixel 3 XL and couldn't be happier.

So, did it get solved??
I have the same problem with WOT Blitz. I cannot play the game anymore. Since updating to Android 9, the system says the game is optimised for full screen, which it is not, so I cannot see the entire screen and buttons moved to the side. Did anyone find a solution in the end?

Like I just mentioned before, it's very likely a developer issue versus the phone. They will likely have to release a patch, but I just got tired of dealing with it. Have had zero problems with the Pixel 3 XL and never going back to Samsung.

Yes!!! Away with spamsung from the earth!!!
Spammy should be banne, ssued and shut down by now!!!
