multi touch is already supported in many apps (even in Igo)

look @ 5:00
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7YWhijK1O0U&feature=player_embedded
video in arabic.
maybe enabling multi touch is a trivial matter. i seriously doubt that HTC modified all these apps in such short notice. so far i have seen the following apps demonstrate multi touch:
IE
opera mobile
google maps
Igo,
TF3D,
all office aplications
media player
anybody has any idea about that

These is my review
IE : Does not support the multi touch
opera mobile : working with multi touch
google maps : I don't know
Igo : working with multi touch
TF3D : I don't know
office : I playing with Excel and support the multi touch
media player : support multi touch
thanks

cool (would be even cooler if you still have it), was that video shot in Gitex or Riyadh?
for multitouch on IE look at this video http://pocketnow.com/tech-news/ie-mobile-supports-multitouch-on-htc-hd2-windows-mobile-65 its probably just a newer software revision than the one in gitex. that was a very nice video btw
oh and i found this interesting answer

PMI'm willing to bet that the multitouch is provided by an HTC service that's integrated with the touch screen driver, and is nothing to do with MS. My Diamonds zoom wheel zooms in in IE, that was an HTC "Innovation".

I have to say, I don't speak any Arabic other than please/thankyou/hello/goodbye but this video review has been one of the best I have seen in terms of a tour around the device. Well done.

Is there a Windows Phone (Mobile) version of IGo? I can only find an iPhone version.
Does anyone know if HD2 comes with IGo or any other navigation software out of the box?

You must be kidding - I've been using iGo before the iPhone even appeared, and the iPhone version is a rather dumbed down one. I don't know where you can (legally) download it though.

I assume whenever the zoom-bar of Diamond 2 works, multituch zoom works too (this means it works in messages too)

Thanks for the link.
How do you deal with the need to keep the software on the original SD card? I install most of my software on an 8GB card. Switching between the two seems impractical. And from reading the info at the site, it doesn't look like you can transfer their card data to a larger card. Or is there a way to do that which NavNGo would rather not make generally public?
Thanks.

Does this multi touch pinch zoom functionality work while reading Mircosoft Exhange Email?
Any Idea?

You can't run a legal copy from anywhere except their card, you can't just copy the data over to another one.

Just noticed that an 8GB card is available, so I'm assuming there's more than 6GB of free space. I could work with that.
I tried to find a functioning demo showing the maps AND offering examples of the voice directions. No luck. Any suggestions?
Thanks.

auto pinch & zoom on programs?

Hi
I know that pinch & zoom normally doesn't work in all programs and that if we want this we need to add the key on the registry, but today, trying this program
http://www.megasoft2000.com/product.php?product=PocketClock Pro&division=ppc
I see that I have pinch & zoom without editing anything.
Why some programs yes and others doesn't?

might be associations with the pinch to zoom function, apparently, P2Z works in windows environment, and thus pocketclock is using the same base as windows/other apps with p2z making it compatible
i dunno really, just be happy

Yeah. You search the forums and they tell you how to enable pinch to zoom in any application.
To help, search for BsB Tweaks.

I think neither BsB Tweaks nor Zoomer work with Internet Explorer

Any solution guyz!!!!!!!

Always if ppl ask for Pinch to Zoom they mean real Pinch to Zoom, not the faked one.
Real= like in the HD2 embedded Opera
Fake= like the one from BSBtweaks, Zoomer and stuff (zooms just in on the screen, no word wrap adaption for example).
I would like to have it in IE as well....

I think you will find that IE in Windows Mobile 6.5 does not do pinch and zoom. Interestingly enough IE in the Zune HD does do pinch and zoom and this has led to some of the speculation that the Zune interface is a possibility for Windows Mobile 7...
I cannot remember where I read it specifically - google pinch and zoom in IE Windows Mobile 6.5 and you will find all the feedback on this.

ummm isn't that registry key the exact location(s) where apps like bsbtweaks and zoomer do their magic? i.e. this registry key is responsible for the "fake" pinch to zoom.
to recap, the only REAL pinch to zoom i've observed on the HD2 are:
opera 9.7 (opera 10 only gets the fake approach)
album
native sms (when viewing a thread)
word and excel
notes
adobe reader
(and maybe a few others)

exactly thats why i think its possible, cause in the WhiteList folder u see two folders. one for the ie6 and one for the htc album.. and the album got real pinch to zoom like u said that was the only point why i thought about that

Opera Mobile 10 Beta 3 on HD2

I've just installed and tried this.
http://www.opera.com/mobile/download/
As with the previous Beta, the menus look great, are very finger friendly and the start page is fantastic and customisable.
However I am now unable to turn to landscape. I can't find a setting for this but I'm sure in the previous beta I was able to do this without tweaking.
The graphics look great and it now supposedly supports Flash. Youtube was ok, though I still feel the resolution is far from good enough. But I was unable to play music in myspace flashplayers or view videos on Kontraband.
The final major downside for me is that they still haven't sorted pinch to zoom on this browser.
it's getting better but still more work to be done. I think I'm going to roll back to the earlier version.

Until pinch zoom is implemented Opera 10 on the HD2 is irrelevent without a stylus. There are some things you need to zoom close into to finger press or use the fine tip of a stylus for. The currently limited zoom of 10 makes this impossible on some pages for people with large fingers.

Yes .. some pages just need a bit of zoom in, some just a bit of zoom out. It seems however free zoom is not part of Opera 10 at all.

But majority of the sites do work well. The text is fit properly into the window without any need for horizontal scrolling. And flash support is a definite plus. Even I would like to use pinch to zoom, but still feel that the new opera is a good all purpose browser which doesn't makes me shift to my iphone for web browsing. And lastly, if you don't already know, you can apply Pinch to Zoom tweak in BsB for Opera!. It works well for me.

Yeah, I even use BsB Tweaks to enable pinch to zoom for Opera Mini 5 Beta 2... It does work, BUT it is not NATIVE pinch to zoom: It will enlarge the whole app (including Menus etc) and not just the page. But for those situations where you need to tap a check box that is far too small to hit without zooming in, even the non native pinch to zoom works great!

Yes, the tweak does take care of some zoom tuning necessary for the tasks not adequately covered by the tap zoom. I myself use tap zoom and use pinch zoom only for fine adjustments. Best of both world's with flash thrown in the bargain!

I actually want to go back to the previous beta. I'm using the bsb tweak to zoom but I don't find it works that well to be honest. very fiddly and double-tap zooming seems better.

does the Beta 3 repackaged with flash, support pinch and zoom?

Am I missing something?
I have the same standard Opera installed from day one (i.e preinstalled)
and can pinch zoom the webpage, very well in fact.
and no, i havent installed any tweaks cab's or modded the registry.

That's Opera 9.7. We're talking about Opera 10 beta 3, a new release in development from Opera. HTC will need to take Opera 10 (when it is released) and add their pinch-zooming functionality to it before (and if they choose to) update the HD2 with it.

Ah ok.
My mistake.

Your Current/Favorite HD2 Apps

because we all have different needs for applications and programs on our phones, i was curious to see what everyone has installed and uses most often on your HD2. i myself haven't done much installing, but what i DO have proves to be extremely useful. here's my list and what each program does:
palringo - multi protocol IM program, i had this when i had an HD1...love it
facebook 1.1.0.17 - a deent update to the og app, use this over touch.facebook.com now...
shazam - recognizes nearly any song playing when allowing your phone to 'listen'.
bsb tweaks - many useful tweaks
total commander - use it for registry things and as a better file explorer
gui:
co0kie's home tab - love the 4x4 quick links and the amount you can have
mini hd2 lock screen - haven't tried s2u2 yet, but this is simple and clean
that's about all i have for now. interested to see what other apps, games, and gui tweaks everyone else has. screenshots would be nice, too, if you have them.
