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?

That crappy wm5 'wait' thingy

Please if any of the rocket scientists on this forum know of some way to change that 'simon says' looking wait animation for wm5 then let us know.
I cant stand the way MS makes their interfaces look like a frikkin Fisher Price gadget and each time that thing loads and makes me watch it cycle red, green, blue, yellow the more angered I get.

:shock: :shock: :shock:
Never gave this much thought, but if it bothers you that much:
1) Get a coreres.dll.0409.mui file. (should be in any good ROM dump, or use TestWM5.exe by mamiac)
2) Change the bitmaps using ResourceHaker or any other res editor.
3)Check Asukal's posts for how to re-sign the file, then put it in windows directory.
Good luck.

This is the thread on changing for WM2003. The info might be helpful.

sorry, just gotta laugh at the prospect of having a hamster on my screen now...
though i'd take that over the spinning thing too...

I loved the little hamster!
Although a few frames of VirtualGirl might not go amiss!

lol, indeed sir, indeed.
so...anyone want to try this on WM5? I know it should work but still....

Very cute idea, I will try this my self soon with a custom graphics.
Just one problem I am not anxious to combat:
In WM5 system MUI's will not load without a signature. This means creating a certificate, provisioning device then signing DLL. I know it can be done, but still, a lot of extra hassle.

Exactly. I don't think it worked when I tried it way back when, but I don't think I signed it...

Request: SMS Pop-up like this!!!

Are there any sms-pop ups like this one for wm?:

"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

}
Would be great to have a good looking sms pop-up app that shows photo of the sender like this one, seems there are several available for Android but all the ones I've found for wm looks like ****

Try SMS-Chat by Vito Tech, it has a pop-up that is pretty similar to that.

I know but I don't think it shows an image of the sender...

S2U2 does this, but it will only show if the lock screen is on.
And the picture wont be that big.

Just use XDAndroid, or get an Android phone haha.
Edit: Wait nevermind, I see use already use it, haha. Good choice.

Yes it's very nice, the problem is I can't use it at daytime or at work due to the battery drain, so I only use XDANDROID at home at the moment. But it was XDANDROD with handcent sms that first made made me go wow! and wondered why we don't have anything like it in wm...
You've probably already seen it but it takes it even one step further and allows you to fast reply in the pop-up:

Oh, really? With the latest builds I have been getting fairly decent battery life as long as I'm not constantly using data connection. So I have been using XDAndroid pretty much as my main OS throughout the whole day. But I also have an extra battery just in case.
I do really like the SMS popup with Handcent. The quick reply is really what sells it for me. Very useful.

Well I have constant data connection with push mail and stuff running so it really makes some difference I've noticed but yes the battery life has improved a lot in new releases and isn't way behind wm now except for when using wifi that is!!!

I'm searching something like this too?

Im looking this!!!!
Cheers!

Sims 3: Crashes due to insufficient memory

I've gotten this message about three times so far while playing Sims 3:
"Heap 2 out of memory" allocating 40 bytes but only 128 available (36 LFB). Increase icf setting . . ."
Anyone else get anything like that?

Ive gotten this warning several times i have been doin research on how to increase icf setting and it said it was sum advanced stuff and it sed it cood ruin your rom but it wasnt necessarily for the vibrant i think it was more of a computer thing idk but i want to increase memory so i can play more soon

Here's a pic and video of the crash from the Tmo forums:

I pretty much can't buy/move anything without this happening so it's rendered the game practically unplayable. Hopefully a dev here can tell us what we need to tweak.

I think the above poster is trying to promote a site, its not even fully up and running, and i see nothing as to a fix for anything on the site, unless someone else see's something I dont

The one thing i have done is every-time i buy something, or move something i save my game, for me it usually happens if it try to buy 3 things in a row, so i now buy, save and buy,save...and when it crashes at-least my last save has the prior thing i bought. Its not a great way to play, but its all i can figure out until someone smarter than me comes up with a fix.

I haven't event installed the game yet so sorry I am of no help. Though I still find it funny that they promote a game that does not work.

FCC Car Launcher screens

Figured I would create a thread here so that we don't clog up the main thread but think it would be helpful for people to get examples of what people are running. I always feel like I am not getting the most out it just because there are so many possibilities. I know my situation is different since I am running 2 units but here is what I have currently running, I think I am going to change the navigation to one of the other options because it annoys me how much the location jumps around while sitting still and haven't seen any 3D recently to make it worthwhile

Just downloaded FCC Launcher, and having tried most of the other launchers out there, for me, it is the best one! Currently creating my screens, so will post an image when done. Can't seem to upgrade to the premium version, though.

Were you able to get it upgraded? I love the launcher as well, almost like there are too many options for it

Yes, I had to uninstall, redownload and re-install, and it then worked. You are right; there are so many options. I had my screen all set and ready to take a pic, and then the media player widget stopped showing artwork and track names from DAB-Z. I will get it fixed and then upload an image.
