Hi everybody. When I write SMS with my girlfriend I sometimes mess with the text. For example I write the text down on a paper and writh it backwards like:
Hi sweetheart. I just wanted to say that I stay here one more day. I love you --->
ouy evol I. yad erom eno ereh yats I taht yas ot detnaw tsuj I. traehteews ih.
So that she has to read it from the end.
Unfortunatly I am not a programmer. Could anybody write a tool that can mirro an sms text please. Then it would be easier. No need of paper anylonger.
And if anybody else has more funny ideas it could end up in a fun sms tool.
Thanks alot.
Greets Alex
oh yeah great fun. I suggest you ask your girlfriend to look at the phone facing a mirror and read the text from the mirror image. Just joking no offince There are serious issues which need to be resolved with XDA2 SMS before we can make fun out of it.
Kufi, have you really thinked on what you said ? did you try the mirror ? was the same effect ?
Alex, if i have some time, i'll write a simple app to do it in the next days and post it here
regards
Hey Hbatista! Sounds great!
Thank you very much!
@ kufi if you turn your display off you get a mirror
Alex
loooool guys, you are wonderful! I tried the mirror but what I saw was the ugly me..
here's your tool with source code
Glad that good humour still persists!
Here's your app. I'm including source code and a ARM cab to do the installation. You should copy the cab and dat file to your device and proceed to installation.
Hope it helps
regards!
talking about good humor..
I included in the about box a small credit to Kuffi!
Hi hbatista! Thank you very much for your cool tool.
A copy function would be cool though. Because then I could copy any text into a sms or mms using the normal tools which also stire the send messages.
And... Nice Mirror Pic Man!!
Thanks.
Alex
right away!
no problem!
here's the new version with a copy/paste menu!
Thanks Man.
Really nice one.
Alex
Now I get an error:
MirrorSms.exe
MissingMethodException
Application::Run+0xf
frmSendMirrorSms:Main+0xa
Is anything else exept the files you attached needed to run it properly?
Alex
sorry!
yep.. I only tested it on emulator, and I don't know why the opennetcf is not being correctly installed...
this new version is working...
Now another funny thing. Does anybody remeber these secred languages form childhood? We were about 5 children and we had such a language training it for weeks. At the end we were really fluent and nobody could understand us. My sister and I still use this language for fun every now and then.
Now we could transfair this to SMS.
For example: Iluvi aluvam coluvomiluving laluvateluver.
which means: I a m co mi ng la te r
I am coming later.
The rule is: After each vowel you put luv and then repeat the vowel if there are more vowels in a row like ea you take all of them and put luv there like ealuvea.
Do you like my suggestion?
Any other ideas?
Alex
lol
well, and what about random ? :lol:
the source code is there, so any other posters can change it. now i have to come back to my vehicle tracking system
Thanks anyway.
Very nice tool

phonenumber?
Do you need to type the phone number in by hand? I don't know any phonenumber nowadays ...
Copy/paste doesn't seem to work in that field

contacts integration only available at commercial release
(read this post title) :lol:
I'm just kidding.
Well, integration with contacts will be a little more difficult. There is no library to do it in the language i used.
Even the clipboard integration was more difficult than sending the sms (can u imagine ?), because compact framework does not support CE clipboard.
I'm not fluent in eC++, but maybe other posters can do it...
Although, if i have some time i will do it...

Hello hbatista,
I'm trying to find a simple programming language to program small nice functions for my Qtec. can you suggest an affordable language ?
thanks
See OpenNetCF
Hi Abalgir
Right now, the best choice would be eC++ (embedded visual c), but for someone initiating, it could be complicated. You can also choose embedded visual basic (eVB).
Although, Microsoft operating systems are migrating to "Managed code" and .net technologies. This means that you should start thinking on using .net to program the devices. In .net you can choose your favorite language, like c# or vb.net, but i prefer c#.
With .net compact framework, you can do a lot of things, but some core fiunctionalities are still not available, but you can use something like OpenNetCF (see www.opennetcf.org) to do core things like sendsms, etc
hope it helps

Diamond theme
Hi,
first of all: great work!!
i've got an HTC Touch Cruise with the SPB MS2.1 and your diamond theme layout F with the colored menu buttons.
Now screen:
- the cellphone provider's name doen't come centered in the middle of the top line and writes over network cover symbole and battery indicator.patch please.
-with layout F, profile icon moves from top bar to bottom right just above screen icons but internet connetion icon in top bar is not available (very usefull)
-new profile icon is difficult to hit.touch area too small.
-is it possible to have the upcoming appointments from the agenda on the now screen? it would be cool to have all the general information in just one click and one view.
Other screen:
-the forum explaination how to add the 9' menu button is hard to understand for me as i am not an expert at all.please make a patch or plugin to download.
-very important:customizing the menus,it does not allow to add the adjustment blacklight icon to the menu (does not come on the list?)?? In the SPB MS2.1,this came on the second page top left, very practical!
Thank you very much for trying to make live a lot easier!!!
Not sure
Hey man, sorry but I dont know much about spb. But I am downloading what your using as we speak, and going to see wat I can do. I'm pretty sure someone else will beat me to the answer though, but if not, Ill try. And thanks for using this thread. It makes searching alot easier. I wish everyone was as enthusiastic about stopping unnessicary threads. Most complain about it, but wont help when somehting like this is created. But I will keep check on this, and will PM you personally as soon as an asnwer is posted. Thanks.

Changing wallpaper problem
Hello,
I've got an Artemis (P3300) and whenever i try and change the wallpaper nothing happens.
I view the picture and click "Set as today wallpaper" and choose 0%, then click ok. After this nothing happens - the wait symbol is supposed to come up while the wallpaper is changing but this doesn't happen. Then, when i check the today screen its the same as before.
I've also tried changing the wallpaper from the today settings menu, and this works but the opacity is 65%. Is there any way to change the opacity setting (to 0%) using this method?
BTW, this problem occurs with all roms i flash.
Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

NOTE -DOLLARS AVAILABLE TO ANY DEVELOPER FOR THIS PROJECT
I am looking for a developer to write a small utility that will remove the black lines on a Today screen that surround/delineate each Today item. The attached picture should help people to understand what I mean (see where the RED arrows are pointing).
The end result should be that any item seen on the Today screen will not have these black lines, leading to a clean, seamless look.
I was certain there was a registry hack for this; however after 2 months of fruitless searching on here and requests in other threads I have not found what I am looking for.
So what's different this time? Well, I will now pay someone to create a utility programme to achieve what I am looking for.
Interested and able to help? Please PM me.
Many thanks
WB
There's already an application which removes them... I ... crap, can't remember what it is. i'll search for it and let you know unless someone beats me to to it.
Nir,
Thanks. look forward to seeing what you can find.
WB
same as my problème?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=422825
thanks advance
It's the utility to change the colors of the today screen, I can't remember either.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=343335
i believe this is it.
hi this tool is awesome I didn't knew it, thanks for sharing
But it is not the tool asked, it is only to change the theme and the entire color of your phone
You could use Ultimate Launch. It doesn't display the lines between plugins.
It offers a few other perks too
All,
Many thanks for the various responses. I have used UI Tweaker several times to try to achieve what I want and while you can change the colour of the lines you can't entirely get rid of them.
As for Ultimate Launch, have also used that as an alternative UI but I don't like it I'm afraid.
The request is therefore still open for a developer to take me up on it unless someone comes up with an existing solution that does the job as I set out.
Appreciate the help so far.
WB
+1, I would be happy too if there is way to delete those lines
maybe i was wrong about UI Tweaker then.. because i KNOW there's an app to remove the lines.. i used one. i'll search again.
Nir 36,
Thanks in advance for looking. Hope you find the item. This has been a very long quest for me.

UI tweaker I try to but not work
yeh
I'm everywhere too ...
Still no idea guys... ?
Yeah. I originally asked here about this on XDA-Dev's about 3 or 4 years ago. The only response that I really received was that the lines are coded in to the shell32.exe or possible gwei.exe [sic]. I know that Wisbar Advance Desktop and a few other programs will remove the lines. However, those programs have a lot of other functions that some people may not want.
Here's my original post from '05.

I can't believe you made your request so long ago and are still waiting for a solution.
I agree with you that all that is required is a small utility to achieve this. Just looking for a talented developer on here to take this on. I am absolutely serious about paying someone to do this so its worth their while.
There are a fair few people who want this so its over to you guys, unless Nir36 finds the tool he says he knows of.
Thanks
WB
I'm sorry, i can't find it. I searched everywhere... so it's one of 2 things.
either i'm senile and i used UI Tweaker, or it's just... gone.
if i manage to find it sometime i'll post it.
I would be willing to give some $ to, If some one would like to make a app, for this.
Thanks T M Z
apparntly i got theme to be "transparent" because my background was black
You can achieve this, if you don't change theme too often and if your theme (TSK) file isn't with draws, with a tool like UI Tweaker from Victor Wong (http://mobile-sg.com), with the excellent ThemeGenCE (PC tools to modify the TSK file or with SKTools (in color tweaks)
Put the 'Today Screen horizontal Bar' at a very close color of your theme... The bars will be 'erased' (you won't see them...)
Hope this helps...
Attention:
The Release is Here
I do alot of skinning but finally decided to jump in and try and actually create my own program, and i need a little help
Some of you may be familiar with trinket softwares "fake call." If not you can do a quick read up with this link.....
http://www.trinketsoftware.com/FakeCall/
I am in the middle of developing something similar but a freeware version (if you didn't know the software isn't freeware any longer) I had put a very basic but working program together in basic4ppc, i then found out i had to buy the software to compile the program. Since i already own visual studio 2008 i decided i would go ahead and try to rewrite my program in vs.
I have completed my design, but i need help with the code....
i need a help with-
"sound" - i obviously need to be able to play sound, i have looked in ms help in vs and they provide some keywords but i am getting errors when i debug.....
-how to load images from an xml file- (in need code for the call)
These will all get me rolling and allow me to release a beta......
I'm getting closer and closer
Because everyone has a different dialer or "incoming call screen," i have decided the best way to go about your fake call is to allow people to select a screen shot and a sound of their choice, creating a very customized realistic experience for every phone (as it would look just like the dialer on your phone) without having to input an obsessive amount of information. (caller name, picture, ect..)
thanks for your help in advanced
THANKS TO-
MRABIE
Attention:
The Release is Here
Wow, this is great. Ya, since fake call is no longer free this is a very amazing idea. I know a lot of people here will help you. We just have to wait. =)
Great idea, I downloaded that app a while ago when it was posted and was rather disappointed to find out it was fake freeware. A couple of suggestions, the aforementioned app would use the default ringer. The suggestion seems pretty simple from a logistics point of view but may be more difficult to program than I would imagine, when selecting a person with a ringer other than default associated use that one. Maybe have a call timer that will stay up and count until the end button is tapped. Hope this helps.
I didn't realize that the other software had gone commercial. Thanks for stepping up!!
bump............
What programming language are you using, considering Visual Studio supports several.
In vb.net your Wait method could be replaced by Sleep(milliseconds). Documentation. I am not sure, however, it this method is included in the compact framework, assuming that's the one you are using. Hope this helps somehow.
Full .Net documentation can be found here.
I am using .net but may consider rewriting again later after getting a release to rid the program of dependacy on the .net framework.
I Have updated the list, as i have gotten some stuff already figured out thanks to different people on the forums, THANK YOU
If you guys can help me out with this other stuff it would be greatly appreciated

thanks for posting.
just as a reference, there's something called DOWNCALL which is free and simple.
edit: my bad, this calls someone at a scheduled time.. doesn't fake a call.
this is nice of trinket but will only last until the 24, and is really only supposed to be for our webpage.
UPDATE:
i'm working on xml now
still need help with sound
did this die out or is it still in development?

Heres an app I use called PhoneyCall
http://www.aimproductions.be/titleview_comingsoon.php?title=PhoneyCall
I used to live in Denmark where the banks provide you with a coloured wallet card on which you write a load of numbers including your 4 digit pin however, only you know the location of the four numbers you need.
I have seen an iphone app or two that do the same thing:
http://www.mochasoft.dk/iphone_pin.htm
or
the HideYourPin app on this page http://bragoszewski.com/iphone/
Basically I would love to know if there is a similar app for the Android platform.
Regards
David P
If this isn't already available, if someone can make it (preferably like the top link in the post above) I would be eternally grateful and you never know, it could make you a few bucks on the market as well
Cheers
David P
I agree, that would be a nice app.
good idea... i think it's not very hard to implement... i will try it this weekend

Fabulous and thanks in advance for trying
did you get my PN last friday? i have a first version that needs to be tested, an translated to correct english
just seen the message and am grabbing it now. Will test and get back to you by tomorrow
Thanks again
David P
@troedi,
It looks great and I wouldn't even change the english within the instructions very much. I will send you via PM later on today any changes I think would be benefificial regarding the wording.
How difficult would it be to have multiple patterns? So you would start the program and then have a list of your saved PINS, one per pattern, and selecting the required PIN opens up the appropriate pattern for viewing or editing?
Regards
David P
An absolutely brilliant idea!
And, could you possibly make this an 'open' beta? I would love to start using this.
Thanks.

thanks for your comments! i think it isn't very difficult to manage more than one pattern. should be realisable in a few hours! as far as i can remeber i've coded the app well-structured enough.
@LukeHandle: i will send you a pn in the next minutes
Why didn't you post it here, so we can all be beta-testers and thus the app will be out sooner?
ok... you've convinced me
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/2817943/Pin%20Code%20Keeper_beta.apk
Let me know when you have the multi pattern version up and i'll give that a test too and well done, looking great so far
David P
ok, gonna give it a try and post back
Any news on a multi pattern version of this app? I couldn't find fault with your help text so far hence not sent any PM with verbiage.
Looking forward to testing the latest version once it's ready
David P
the multi-pattern version is nearly complete, but there are little bugs when saving a pattern! but i can't spend much time on the app the next two days. I think the app will be ready for testing on friday evening!!
oooo nearly time for more testing
>>> Here it is <<<<
Enjoy testing my app and please tell mi if you think it's ready for the app market
_________________________________________
Edit: download link removed -> use market to download. Look for "Pin Code Keeper"
Downloading and installing now
Thanks again and will feed back shortly
David P
Instructions are great.
2 things to mention though:
1. It wouldn't install over the top of the previous version even though it identified that it was an updated version so I had to uninstall the old and install the new.
2. Might I recommend that on each patter, net to the Pin Code Kepper in the title bar, you also add the pattern name given when a user edits the words "New Pattern" to something to better remind themselves?
So the title bar Might look like this (see attachment)
Kind Regards
David P
