It is the memory requirements for this application that has forced the company to discontinue any new versions/updates and provide the last one for free without any support.
They stated "at this point in time WM devices can't handle the next level we want to take our software. So instead of producing an application that does not meet our standards we have decided to pull it from the market"
Perhaps more of an excuse for the software developers not being able to work within the constraints of current PDA limits- who knows.

Right you are... eats up about 6mb of memory. But still I enjoy showing it off to my buddies. I'm not sure if this can be installed and run from a storage card. Will do tomorrow.

Hey, if you want your PDA to look like Windows, use Windows

Have you tried to create a webpage from the screen of the PDA??
I would actually make use of your TSC program had I a suitable device- unfortunately still stuck with JAM- no point of term. services via bluetooth!
Wouldn't mind having one of those up and coming mini-tablet style devices that are due to run the full blown version of XP though.

I'd like to have an OQO or something Unfortunately even the Universal's screen becomes too much work on the eyes after a while. Such a dilema: want a big (VGA) screen, want a small phone. Not gonna happen.
I don't think I'd like an OQO day to day, but nice in bed. But yes, VJFullscreenTSC could be used to write webpages from the Uni.
As I understand it, Experience is a flash app isn't it?

VNC options for trinity (have searched)

hi all
Recently got an M700 and am loving it. Since discovering this place I've been amazed at what customisations you can do, and with flashing to WM6 using AX3L's fantastic ROM, getting TomTom6 working, and a few choice other apps to allow FTP etc., i've now got a device that does pretty much everything I could ask of it anywhere! (Probably matter of time till I brick it though...).
What I am missing though, is a decent VNC client (although I've used the RDP client semi-successfully).
I've searched for 'VNC' but no joy - surely that can't be the case when there's so much other stuff available? or is the search function not liking the term...?
thanks for a great forum & resource

Did you see the posts re zoomVNC on PocketPC Thoughts? Looks nice!

i have now
thanks - looks excellent
i guess there's others out there i couldn't search for too!

For me the best is PTPocketOffice.
It was recommended by Menneisyys:
http://www.pocketpcmag.com/blogs/index.php?blog=3&p=1572&more=1&c=1&tb=1&pb=1
It consumes a lot less data than the others VNC.
It's fast.
It has fullscreen.
It can be used one handed.
The server side can resample the pictures to make it smaller (less data and better image than if it was done by client side).
The only minor thing I'd like to see improved is their proprietary softkeyboard. why not using the system keyboard? I don't want to use a new keyboard with each of my apps...

that's a great article
i hadn't thought to even try logmein until reading it there, i'd assumed that with their remote screens always being slightly fuzzy and smaller it mightn't be great - wow, was i wrong!
just tried logging onto a client's SBS server and the screen scaling and rotation together make it nearly as useable as a standard desktop! the screen scrolling at the side of the screen is a great interface! there'll be occasions where i need VNC, but for know i think I've got a favoured solution

rss program?

Hi there. I saw in this forum many good programmers. Can any of you make a RSS program with embeded photos like newspanel???

RSS Hub is my choice of reader, and will probably always be. Even supports podcasts, and auto updates.

The New Viigo beta, for SURE! Has TONS of features, at least give it a look:
http://viigo.com/beta

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=398571

I like BeyondPod. It works well for me.

pRSSReader. does its job simply and perfect

I know there are a ton of free ones but I've always gone bake to SPB Insight because it actually downloads the whole article and not just a link. Does anyone know of a free one which also has this feature? Basically in the morning before I set off to work I connect to my wireless network and update all my channels, there is no 3G available in my area, nor where I work, no wifi at work either, which is why I like to have whole pages downloaded. I have HTC RSS hub built into my rom but it only gives me brief headlines wanting to connect to the internet to view the whole article. Seems like a waste of time to me.

pRSSreader does that too AFAIK

Try Egress.

I really like the Egress 4.0.0 interface however it has horrible memory leaks (Once I uninstalled Egress the memory leaks stopped). I have yet to try 3.3.0.
I really like pRSSreader which you can find at the below URL. The new 1.4.x release really improved the UI. However, there are a few small bugs that the author David Andrš is really working hard to fix.

all this programms are good but not any can show pictures in today screen like new spanel.

[10.24.08][DEV] OpenMenu - an LGMenu Clone

Hi all!
REQUEST
I've been working on this using Basic4PPC, and it's coming along quickly and nicely. But, I'm using the unregistered version!
I initially wanted to charge a tiny fee for the app, but I have a better idea. If I could get donations to get a proper license for Basic4PPC, then I'll release it and any subsequent versions and updates as freeware instead. Hell, I'll open source the buggers.
In addition to this, it means I finally have a development platform I can use to make the apps that I've always wanted to. I have the skills, just need the tools: so you can get more apps in the future!

The LGMenu as it currently stands.
My application will have 4 tabs, as per my 10b ROM.

Another day, another application I'm working on.
I have an LG KS20, and one of the coolest parts of this phone is the LGMenu. It's great! But the issue is: there is no customisation whatsoever! So I decided I was going to create something instead.
Currently working on the application itself, using holder graphics.
What would you nice people like to see in this application?
Customisation is a must, as well as skinability.
But what else?

Hi!
I like the LGMenu as well but didn't use it because it's not customizable. Therefore your effort is highly appreciated
Some ideas (see attachments):
- an integrated appointments view would be nice
- scrollable icon view

yy what replace skin for programms menu?

Being able to add wallpapers to the background, man, that'd be the best.

dude, if you like B4P buy the app, Erel put a lot of time in it
I did and i didn't even ask other people for money

+1 for scrollable icons
I think this would be most useful.
greets doena

I'm being paid on Tuesday, and I *will* be purchasing B4PPC. So shush.

[Q] Chrome fonts are different sizes when zooming in.

Hi,
Since the last Chrome update I've noticed that when zooming in on a website (these forums for example) that one post will be in a large font and another post will have a tiny font.

}
I've gone back to the older version and everything works fine. I was just wondering if anyone else had this problem and if there was a solution other than downgrading?

I've noticed the same thing since the new update. I've also noticed that when you click on something. It doesn't flash blue anymore to indicate that it was pressed. Plus, when you first enter a website and start scrolling around before it's fully loaded. The page will automatically scroll back to the top when it's done rendering. My Nexus S used to do that and it drove me crazy. Hope they send out a quick fix for all this stuff. On another note, how does Google not notice these glitches before an update is released?.. Boggles my mind sometimes.

I've also noticed that when zoomed out the display is no where as crisp as it used to be. For example reading xda full screen in portrait it was quite easy to read, now it is quite blurred and the letters run into each other.

Chrome is a disaster, I really wish Google would sort it out, as I love the desktop version.

Is that what we are leaving it at? That it's a disaster? Firefox does this too. After searching, I haven't found a solution. Has anybody?

I think this is a good feature. Yes, it doesnt look like real page but i am reading texts more comfortable with this feature. Anyway, its not a disaster..
Sent from my Nexus 4

My workaround to still using chrome/chrome beta on xda, is to scroll down to the 'quick style chooser' and change it from 'xda 2013 beta' to 'xda 2010' that seems to totally sort out the wonky formatting on my nexus 4.

The feature is called Font Boosting in Chrome, or Font Inflation in Firefox for Android.
I don't think it can be disabled.
