I just downloaded Pocket Esword on my htc hd2 and it seems it has nt been modified for the screen resolution.It seem to be made for resistive screens where you have to use a stylus. It is difficult to select books, chapters and verses. All the boxes where you select are squashed and you can't make the selections you want. Is there any way this can be resolved so that it can be modified for WVGA screens resolution
It is no longer supported by Rick M. Version 3.20, his final version of pocket e-sword, is still usable for WVGA. However, the fonts are a little big. You may want to try Laridian's Pocket Bible. It is very good and useful.
Thanks for the response. I already have Laridian but I tell you Esword is the best. I have just tried to download the V 3.0.1 for WinMo 5 & 6 and it kept coming up with a notice that the resource was not available. I had to download the version for pocket pc 2003. I just hope that I would still be able to download the app and use even if Rick Meyer isn't supporting ???????
Que 2 :
Is there something that can be done from xda developer side to keep the Esword app going ??????
This is really impt as I can't imagine not having the bible app.

Have any of you guys given this a go yet? http://www.pointui.com/
Its a major improvement over the Standard windows mobile home screen and gives an easier to use interface with your finger.
No ROM cooking involved just install over the top of windows mobile 5 or 6. Its kinda like an improved today screen.
I downloaded it today and I have to say its made me alot happier using the phone without a stylus.
It has just been released and is free to use on any windows mobile device.
Take a look...

But it doesn't support VGA devices?? - Mike
Shame it doesnt support true vga 96 dpi......however its really nice looking and i like imput/design ui a lot, wallpaper and color scheme should be user defined.
it does work in 96dpi, kind of, I think we need to resize one or two of the backgrounds to make it work well.
not gone through the jif files yet, I'm presuming it'll be one of those.
they got a fix for that now, a temporary one on their website
Hi,
I have installed this application but I didn't really like it the way I was expecting it to perform. The problem is, I can't get rid of it now. I have removed the program from remove program but it still shows the 'Home' option on the task bar.
Can anyone help me to remove this program?
Regards
SS

Hi
I am usining it on 128 and 96 dpi
Works fine but when putting in pin for fone the buttons have all tobe touched to see them and then use clear and then enter the pin as u can now see the buutons ???
Any way to fix this ???
good stuff, i like it here ,works good with my HTC PPC 6800
I think once finalized, this could indeed be a killer application for the Athena as it encompasses all areas usually only accessible through the native WM O/S, but in a much more stylish and finger touch pleasing way.
hi,
i'm trying to work out which shell replacement to use on my experia. i've used the full version of spb mobile shell on my kaiser and quite like the functionality although it looks pretty dull. i'm tempted to install TF3D but would like the opinion of someone who has used both as to which is better ?
unfortunately, i need the ability to go back to the standard wm homescreen as i don't think any of the shell replacements can take advantage of standard wm today plugins (i'm thinking david andr birthdays here which i use to warn me in advance of upcoming birthdays so that i can get a present in time ...)
does anyone have any opinions ?
thanks in advance ...
I use all.. I use WM today screen. and spbshell and tf3d.. I choose what I like at that moment. Thats why the panels are so handy
thanks kev!n - you don't find that your phone slows down at all ?
how do you access all 3 ? do you have TF3D set up as a panel od you access all 3 from panel 1 on your x1 ?
thanks
Yes I installed it as a panel. And acces it all with panels. And the phone did not slow down for me so I think its great
thanks for that. did you manage to get the full version of mobile shell working as a panel or are you using the panel version ?
mobile shell + pocket plus + phone suite all the way
TF3D is only a little eye candy no more, and I prefer more info on screen than good graphics on screen.
I have both installed (as panels). No problems here, running very nicely.
Using TF3D more, for the most part simply because the HTC Music Player is more touch friendly (although the eye candy doesn't hurt either if I'm being completely honest).
Can't really see a reason not to have both, especially now that TF3D is available in panel form (and also more stable in that form if others reports are to be believed).

I agree 100% i'm using both and they both work great. I'm hoping someone comes out with a WVGA skin for spb mobile shell panel. If not who knows i might try and make one myself.
Ever so slightly off topis but....
I've got the normal version of SPB MS installed rather than the free panel version. I can access the normal today screen at any time.
A senior member called GREATBAL has made some fantastic skins/mods for mobile shell, these worked perfectly on my Kaiser but unfortunately due to screen resolution they don't work on the X1.
Anyway I have PM'ed GREATBAL and he gave me this reply
'The Xperia-ish theme won'twork on the X1's screen resolution. But it would be very interesting to get hold of the graphics files in the X1 so we came make it into an MS theme. Those graohics files would be hi-res and suitable for VGA/QVGA devices. The images i used are drawn from scratch using photoshop based on screenshots i found on the net. but they are low-res suitable for QVGA devices only'
So if anyone can send these files to the great GREATBAL you never know what magic he could do for us!!
Greatbal has a wvga spb mobile shell theme. Ultimate Windows 7 or something like that. I doesn't work on the spb mobile shell panel but it might work on the full version. I dunno.

I followed the installation instructions in the post and installed this last night including soft reset.
It crashed my X1!.........but soft reset again and its been fine.
It's an OK theme (for the time being).
Hmmm it didn't work for me at all. The theme is chopped off on the bottom.
Does anyone know how to change the default view on the panel version of SPB Shell so that it displays the 'home screen' when opening rather than the 'shortcuts' view?
I hope I've used the right terminology, I'm a bit of a noob.
Cheers,
Ronnie

Thanks in advance.
guys, have anyone installed the most powerful document processing software the "SoftMaker 2008" onto their HD? I've tried individual CAB and Green verson (sorry!) and both froze either after loading the app or having the keyboard brought up and block the whole screen (can't put it back), I just want to make sure before I spent bucks into getting the official one. thanks!
That's interesting. I've been a long time user of 2006 and the install doesn't use Cabs ... it uses a wrapper on the PC to download the file structure to the PDA. Has 2008 changed that ?
I decided against the HD in part because of the lack of practical options around Softmaker. I know you can use BT keyboard (which I have) but you don't take it everywhere.
Paul.

thanks Paul. well, I had an Acer n311 before my HD, I didn't often do word processing on my n311 but I still found it pretty handy when I needed to, so keyboard less might not as much as a factor for me (considering that HD's on-screen keyboard is much more "typable" than n311), anyway, thanks for your help!
Works fine for me
No problem. I've been buying this SW for a long time, version after version, updated packs,etc.
Installs via PC with serial number, or via cabs (yes) but then you have to install the serial n° three times...
Fantastic group of applications. i.e. PlanMaker is now usable with larger screen size, and Gyrator works great to put on landscape mode.
My best.

wow, great encouragement for me! well, I think I'll test out my limit of not doing word processing on HD, if not, I'll just go and buy one SoftMaker for myself then, thanks!
Hi all,
I saw Dasher mentioned on the Christmas Lectures this year and noticed there is a version which runs on Windows Mobile. It's a very smart keyboard that would be a great tool on the Touch Diamond if it could be made into a SIP (perhaps even enabling the accelerometer to control it would work well?)
If you've not heard of it. check it out at http://www.inference.phy.cam.ac.uk/dasher/ - there's an online Java based version to play with on there.
The developer of the Pocket PC version mentions releasing a SIP version but i've no idea when that was posted, so if any of the talented coders on here were able to get it running I reckon it'd be a really good alternative to the standard keyboards.
zinger5
Still, the pocket PC version works very well... and you can always cut'n'paste.
But, yes, a SIP version wold be pretty cool, if a little expensive on screen real estate!
This is my first contribution to the Windows Mobile community. My testing so far is limited to an HTC Touch so I am hoping it works on most other QVGA phones.

Anybody give this a try yet. I'd like to know if anyone finds it useful before I start developing new features.
Cheers,
Ken
I can test it for you!
Hello,
I found your little app quite interesting, seems simple and intuitive.
I will test it, and give it a try for my next poker tournament. =)
I'll come back to you to give you my appreciation / comments.
Thanks for your good work!

Hope for an update
greetz
I'd love to try it out, but as with the user above, my diamond runs at vga.
Would really love to see a vga version, as this is one of the apps ive really wanted for my phone.
Thanks for your contribution!
