The non-Hero multitouch browser, is it a hack and recompile from source, or is it a case of the stock code having multitouch built in already if one enables it in the kernel? I ask because the zoom buttons popping up in my way are driving me mad, so I thought I'd try building a version with them disabled - but no point if the source I use as my base has no multitouch built in.
i can't really help on that, but have you tried Opera browser?

It's a shame the moderators are unable to read the post before moving it. Loccy seems to have done quite a bit of 'development' here, and the question seemed, to me, quite related to development.
I thought somebody already created a browser with the zoom buttons removed? I can't seem to find it at the moment but I swear I saw it come out 2 or 3 days after Cyanogen's first implementation of the multi-touch browser.
It was moved to here because what the OP is asking has already been created AND INCLUDED in CM roms.
open browser > menu > more > settings > uncheck visual zoom controls.

I tried using ResHacker but after replacing some of the graphics (which is all I'm after) MusicID wouldn't run anymore claiming it was unsigned.
How can I replace the graphics in this app and still have it function afterwards?
(FWIW: the graphics in MusicID appear to have been done by someone schooled in minimalist 80's computer graphic design. Who failed.)

Just curious, what kind of new thread would be considered acceptable to you? I'm not trying to be a smart*ss, im serious, if all "unnecessary" questions go in the "top of the page" thread, what kind of topic/question/information would be alright to start a new thread? Just so i don't make the same mistake kwoodall made.
Oh yeah, kwoodall, i totally agree with you, and wish ya luck on improving the ( 1980's miami vice) look of musicid. dschoenike
Hmm. I did this for that very program awhile back and it worked fine. Only thing i think it could be is if a image file had a different extension or there was a problem when you saved it back to cab.
Or did you try and change the images once it was installed instead of editing the cab file?
I tried to edit the .EXE file itself. Was I a bad boy?

Actually my fellow ppc'er. If you read about the Development & Hacking section , there probably isn't a correct topic/subject to start a new thread. It specifically says that this section is for pretty much Hardcore Developers.
In other words, from the way I've read the rules, and about this section, and especially what I've learned from the Mod's and senior members, this section is supposed to be for someone who has created an application/software/etc. Not to ask questions. I may be mistaken , but from what I've gathered, the only way a question should be asked in this section , is if you can find a specific thread concerning what you are lookin for, and then post it in that thread.
I know that when you go to this section that is not the case, but thats how it was meant to be, and that is why that thread up to , was created. So theres your answer.

I disagree. If that was the requirement for making a new thread, ones having to do with dialer skins, spb mobile shell, all the HTC programs, opera mobile beta, etc etc etc would all have to be erased or relocated, and I just don't think that's appropriate. This thread deals with hacking and the modification of a program, thus I think it is entirely appropriate to post it here. That said, I don't know of a solution for the OP's issue but would like to know the answer as well.

Install SDKCerts.cab and/or change your security policy to allow unsigned applications via HKLM\Security\Policies\Policies add new value "0000101b": dword = 1
In the future, please use the thread mentioned earlier for questions, as this is a rather simple step that almost everyone knows about...
Dowloaded new version of opera onto my Elfin (I think, the memory extended tTouch) and just started playing with it, and like it so far, but can someone help out. I have dark Keypad installed and use it for everything but whenever I try to type anything in opera it starts to open keypad then decides better and opens up the original HTC crappy qwerty one instead. I just can't seem to stop it doing so, and it's really anoying. Anyone have any ideas?
If not then does anyone know how I can unistall all other keyboards, and will this force it to us the Keypad. Or is only having one keyboard a little dangerous.
Cheers.

doesn't the other thread only talk about opera 9.5 or is opera 9.5 rev1958 = 9.51? i'm a bit confused..
Some people will waste more energy trying to point out what you're doing wrong in one of the million plus discussion forums on the internet than what it would take to actually answer your question.
The official Opera beta is a great browser but it has two major flaws that you can't fix and can only wait until the next release. One is the keyboard issue you've mentioned. That is the deal killer for me. The second is it turns of the sounds for text message/email alerts.
Neither can be fixed as of yet.

Basically, the Development and Hacking forum is for developers to share their projects. Kind of a sounding board to beta test and continue developing their apps. When people post their questions in the open forum it kind of clogs up the search engine with garbage. It makes things harder to search for.
You should search for your topic, read the entire thread to see if your question has been answered already. Then if it is a new question, post inside of that thread. You will receive a much friendlier response.
Hey all,
I was using my HD2 today and I don't like the way the phone has certain lags :/
I know about Chainfire's Patch for HD2, and i've heard about another patch that supposedly does the same thing. Also, there seem to be various different forums for boosting the performance on the HD2. I would like (if this is possible ) to have the best known combination of registry tweaks and programs and modifications in one thread so that they'll be easier for everyone to locate I think key improvement factors would include Performance, Smoothness in day to day graphics eg Scrolling through the Album in Landscape or Music or the Start Menu, Speed (The CPU doesn't Idle when it needs to be used for power).
I think what bugs me most is that seemingly slight lag when scrolling through HTC Sense, or when playing Teeter. Sorry if i'm bothering everyone
Thanks for helping

Elemental Fire,
A little confused by your post. There is a Hints and Tips thread and a Questions thread on here which should cover off most of what you need. Even if everything you wanted was in one thread I bet it would grow to such an extent that you would have to search through it at some point to find and understand the variations that pop up with published solutions, tweaks, etc.
You have 2 options; start your own thread and populate it with all the "best features" you are looking for or keep a log of the things you find that will be useful to you. For the former you get to put some time into the forum and help others out, for the latter you satisfy your own needs.
Hope this helps.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=629388
(Use SK-Tools, and: HKLM means H_KEY_LOCAL_MACHINE )
Anybody have any ideas. I am aware that devs are not supporting the original leak. But im just looking for info more than anything. Every once in a while i will hit the home button and as soon as i return to the home screen the calendar clock, and the feeds and updates widget are no longer there.
I think I know what you're talking about. If you wait a little bit they come back... think it's the launcher resetting. Did it to me a lot too, switched to super clean, haven't seen it since *knock on wood*.
This belongs in general. Read Me
But it happens to me to with beautiful widgets. Time and again. i just deal with it since this is not the final build.
I understand what your guys are saying but thats not my problem. im fully aware that if you use adobe flash, or apps that use a lot of resources that if you hit home sometimes it will refresh the home screen (happened all the time on the Original droid). My problem is the widgets disappear all together meaning they dont reappear. Ohh and this isnt a general question this question refers to an unofficial rom aka ROM DEVELOPMENT!!!
Also its not all the widgets that disappear it just the Samsung widgets (i only use calendar clock, and feeds and updates widget)
If you read that link you would see that your question should have gone in the leak thread. Or your thread should have been started in general. Why must people try to justify their mistakes?
good day. From the Fascinate sporting the XDA app.
Here are few key excerpts so you don't have to read the whole thing:
If you have developed a ROM, or are working with others to do so, the development forum is somewhere to discuss and share ideas, post useful feedback and logs or crash dumps, and to discuss a common goal developers are trying to achieve.
Once you have identified what you need help with go to the device Q&A forum (general if device lacks one), and make a clear, informative thread that explains the issue, and what you have tried doing to fix it. Did you re-download the ROM? Did you ask a friend to flash it for you, to reduce chance of user error? What steps (exactly) did you follow? What errors did you see (exact wording)? Did you double check all the steps? Did you do a wipe or hard reset?
So remember… before you start a thread in development, ask yourself what you are developing. If you can’t answer, then stop, step away from the post button, and think about where you are posting. Would it be better in General or Q&A, or is some more time with your best friend, search, required?

And same here op. It bothered me for awhile cause I really like the program monitor widget and that blue digital clock. I ended up just getting another widget from the market but touchwiz seems to make it all shaky every time I went to another screen. Wish there was a fix, but I just deal with it.

^I agree with you wholeheartedly, and I dont think they were trying to attack him personally, but...
it's a matter of frustration that established users have here with people completely disregarding the rules (and this is coming from someone with low post count). To my understanding the development fora are supposed to be FOR devs, not end-users. I think our role as end-users (in this development forum) is to provide support in terms of bug reporting (or whatever the dev might need) and such WITHIN specific dev threads. By not adhering to the rules, new users are unintentionally changing the dynamic of how these fora are supposed to operate.
So they're not trying to be d*cks, they're just trying to maintain the integrity of this forum.

Easy solution: Read the rules, and when you're corrected by someone with 10 times your post count, who provides verification, just admit you were wrong.
How about a solution to this problem,, in the sub forum section page change the expalnation of the 4 sub forums to capatilazation and place it before the actual sub forum link and change the sub forum link to un capitalized font . I think this might help force people to rerad first before clicking the link.

No one has a problem with everyone being able to post in the development forum, Just people cluttering it up with things that belong in the general forum. I will never understand how people can argue so hard for anarchy. If developers and veterans are complaining about the state of the site, then maybe you ought to get your act together or we'll just leave. Then who's going to help you with your issues? Other noobs who have won the right to post wherever the hell they want by driving off the people who actually make roms and mods and fixes. If the op wanted a topic for his specific issue, he should have posted it in general. If he wanted to post in development he should have done so in the thread for the rom he is using, not created a new thread. It's clearly stated in the rules. Why is that such a problem to some people?

He's a troll, just ignore him. This thread should be locked since the OP has been helped and it's just going downhill.
Thanks for all your work sonofskywalker, I keep alternating between Blackhole and Superclean still trying to figure out which is a better fit.
I would like to request that you have all of your thread titles standardized if you are offering a ROM.
A good template would be:
[ROM](ANDROID_VERSION)-(UPDATED_LAST) Name (Version number etc)
ex:
[ROM](2.3.3)-(03/31/2011) CyanogenMod 7 for Vibrant.
&
[ROM](2.2)-(04/03/2011) Trigger v2.9.2 / EDT
or something to this affect. it's confusing looking around with all of the rom version numbers being mistaken for android version numbers. Also, it's nice to see when something was updated without having to see the entire thread.
It's already pretty much like this..
there are only 2 2.2 roms, Trigger & Bionix
there is 1 gingerbread rom (cm7)
and there are 9999999 2.2.1 ROMs
dates are almost always in the topic title anyways...
that's just being nitpicky.. speaking of which, this is posted in the wrong section.
ironically, you just posted an extra thread that contraindicates your cleanup suggestion.

Posted it where it would be read by the correct people. Less cleanup, more organisation of ROMs.
To other responder, two things: you're wrong (i.e. there are two Gingerbread ROMs for the Vibrant: CM7, MIUI), and even if that were true, not everybody knows which ROM is which all of the time. This would make things easier for users who don't view the forum every day and don't keep up with every ROM.

Did you ever go, into dev section? All the titles are put fine, and theres already been a precedent, and its been set. The titles cannot be changed.
Thread is useless and takes up space.
(Useless post being nitpicky) (android 1.5-3.0) (4.4.11) (please delete) is how u should re-label this. N fyi there are 3 gingerbread roms. Cm7, miui and dbl rainbow.
