Hello all.
I've got a thread started in the Nexus One forum for a Live Wallpaper that I made. It seems to work fine on the Nexus but at least one person has told me that the textures aren't showing up on his Milestone. I'd like to get at least a few more confirmations on different configs/ROMs. I'd especially like someone with an actual Droid to test it because in my search for a solution, I ran across someone who reported that his OpenGL app displayed different behavior on a Droid vs. a Milestone even though they have the same GPU. Strange.
Anyway, any help is appreciated. Here's the link to the thread:

Hi Guys,
I hope everyone is well. I am new owner of an Xperia, and even more novice and realm of modding it.
This site is an immense resource and is probably a strong reason why people started loving their Xperias, despite the shortcomings. Anyway, excuse my ignorance, but I ran into this while being on YouTube:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=36YtZHXGCjA
My questions are:
1. Does anyone know what this is and how is this possible?
2. Has anyone tried using it or has access to whatever this entails?
Again, excuse my ignorance, should that be the case . Thank you for reading!

this looks like one of those chinese knock-offs. as far as i know, there isn't anything out yet for our real xperias that mimics an iphone's os
Ye don't bother it's a cheap knock off...I did a little research on them, they sell them on eBay shipped mainly from Asia. They don't have a slide out keyboard like the real X1.
They also do exactly the same ones in an iPhone shell. This guy does a pretty comical review of it, it uses the same operating system as the one from the video you posted by the looks of things. http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=B2tVE7qRLwk&feature=channel_page
Stay clear I'd say!!!
well ... this one HAD a slideout keyboard.
people uptop dont know
its called iFonz i don't have it on my xperia but its an app that replicates the iphone ui
makes sense ^^
i knew that tool but never ever installed it nor watched a video about it. if i want an iphone ... i'd bought one
ahh I didnt watch the whole video but I've seen those fake X1s on ebay before.
It's a real Xperia in the video running S2U2 and iFonz.

What you are looking for is iFonz, as others have already mentioned. For some screens and info on it, visit my blog at: http://xperiancer.blogspot.com/2009/01/ifonz-iphone-for-windows-mobile.html
Just that too bad no one's made a panel to launch iFonz yet.
That would be cool, a Panel... but since iFonz is not add-on or replacement of the Today screen but rather comes on top of it... i don't mind using it as is either.
Does Ifonz run? I thought it had no wvga support

It sure does... http://xperiancer.blogspot.com/2009/01/ifonz-iphone-for-windows-mobile.html
Not WVGA support from the developers, yeah (as you can see from the bottom bar in landscape a little shy of the total width)... but it runs perfectly none-the-less.
Anyone know if anything like this is available for android?
Fairy simple sequencer but, fun and addictive. I think something along these lines was available for winmo but ran very slowly. There are a couple of flash pages with this type of thing, but an actual app should run very nicely on the desire.

Haven't seen one, though it may be worth seeing if progs such as ToneSynthDS are opensource, then you may be able to port them.

[edit]
Found this
==brighthub.com/mobile/google-android/articles/45651.aspx==
nearest I could find.
will give it a go.
There was an app for the Blackstone, and iPhone (i think) thought it would run very smoothly on the desire.
I know this is an old thread but I was wondering the same thing, since I've been playing with some web-based players!

Please post any which are ported to android, I think this would be great on a tablet!
I just watched a video on you tube of the Motorola Droid X. each widget you can long press and then resize the widget too any size on the screen and it automatically adjust. any chance of anyone working on this for our EVO's? I would be the first to donate.Here is the link. Starts at 2:27 into it.

Proprietary code
I'm no expert, but if Motorola made their widgets the same way HTC made their's, then the widgets are tied to the launcher and their won't really be any way to extract them. Obviously someone could program something similar, the same way many HTC widgets have been replicated, but a true port of the software is probably impossible. Keep in mind these guys encrypted the bootloader on the device, so I don't think they are too keen on our Android hacking community to begin with, so extracting those widgets is probably impossible without Moto/Ninja-blur.
Thats definitely a cool feature for ADW Launcher to aim for.
i didnt exactly think they could steal that exact one but someone could make a similar option. Actually i was looking at some of cyanogens work and in one of his roms, he does have a resizer built in, not exactly as smooth as the droidx but would still be awesome to see on the EVO. And word is that he is building a rom for the evo now. He does some excellent work and i cant wait to see what he dreams up for the Evo.
I'm wanting it for my sidekick, the clock it comes with is.... less than good. Someone on the sidekick forum told me to ask for the apk of the Epic's clock, since the two phones have had similar compatibilities and the nexus s version wouldn't run.. So if anyone could upload it here or email to falkner11 at gmail.com, I would appreciate it.
The stock calendar would also be great too, but I really need the clock.
We have a samsung modified clock. I'll try and find the aosp one for you.

Hi all xda members, i just like to help you to solve your problems as fast as possible. Being answered correctly and being solved fastly and accurately.
I am putting this because i had found large number of posts in which people got in trouble, just because they havent asked their doubts correctly. Also not all phones have same specifications so that a common answer may not be applicable for every one to solve problems.
So its all about the way of asking a question in the forum. Please read and follow these whether you are posting a new thread or just in middle of a discussion.
Always read stickies before you post. They are put on top because they can solve most of your doubts, and they can help you to understand what you should/ shouldn't do.
Before asking a question please mention your wildfire specifications including.
Rom
Kernal
Radio
Hboot
S-on / s- off
Tweaks / coustomizations you installed.
Memory card partitions info.
Then you must explain what happened,when you try what.
Eg. My phone got boot loop error when i installed "xxxx script"
If you are trying to learn some thing never ask in parts, ask fully.
Eg. I want to flash a new custom rom, so from where i should start. And never ask like this ; "i cant instal xxxx rom in my phone. Pls help".
Just make intentions clearely.
Dont blame those who helped you for the reason that they asked you to do a thing and you have done some thing else, which may caused you some problems.
Always remember that a straight and clear question will always give you a staight and clear answer.
If you follow these ways of asking questions , i assure that you may not get into trouble.so folow these simple rules. Be happy.
Regards
Shah.
Good point.
Rom: htc_wwe 2.22.405.1
Kernel: 2.6.32.21-g0f9e9b5 [email protected] #1 Tue Nov 30 13:53:39 CST 2010(!) sooo last year
Radio: well yeah it has a radio I'm pretty sure
Hboot: 0.80.0002
S-on / s- off: ON
Tweaks: replaced sense launcher with launcher2+protips from AVD, rooted, installed live wallpaper support, 'bout it.
So, how come the development board is just for posting ROMs and not for instance custom apps or other app-not-rom related hacking? htc_wwe is different from aosp, you know.
Mmmmm because there is a section called wildfire themes and apps.

Yes, but looking at it as a development board the snr is abysmal.
Most wildfire developers have moved on to bigger and better phones, what we have left is a small group of equally talented and dedicated developers who are still trying to squeeze life from our "old" phones, there's the app section here which isn't very active because most of the people that can develop for wildfire are busy working on roms.
There is another section on xda called android apps and games I think, that's where I find new apps that are currently being developed.

Well, on average I use a phone for 3 years before moving to a newer model. But as an app developer it's sad to see that for Android you really need to have several different devices in order to truly make your app work for everyone. The Java mantra "write once - run everywhere" does NOT apply (nor does it really work that way on any java platform for that matter). How many times do you read comments such as "does not work on my droid incredible! Bloody murder and death!" in the market? The safest way to make any app is to use HTML, CSS, JavaScript, some other language which begins with a P and a good database to go with it such as PostgreSQL. This has the huge advantage of a more direct "delivery model" as well, rather then going through a market and hoping that someone will find you (and install the updates later on).
Or maybe I suck as a developer and should rather be doing something else. Though many (perhaps even most) apps on the market have likely been written by even bigger idiots then me.
I agree its a daft model, half the apps the market wont let me download because of screen Res etc etc work absolutely fine and a quarter of the other half could probably be fixed by simply decompiling and making slight adjustments to the code, now I'm not a developer, never will be but I can read instructions well and am pretty sure I could make slight adjustments myself but the point is I shouldn't have to..........

You would have to reverse-engineer the apk back to readable Java, make sense of it all, hack it and hopefully it'll work when you get it to run again. Most of the time, it's probably not going to be worthwhile. For small UI changes you'd only have to decompile the resources and fix the layouts most of the time. This is how crude theme hacks are done (by changing the style xml).
But if it's for a phone, it's still just that. The apparatus was designed as a communication device to tell Scotty 2 to beam up and it does that brilliantly (although there aren't any spaceships flying around the galaxy quite yet that we know of). I counted 211 apps on mine (in the "drawer") so even if I theoretically had 8 hours of time to spend with my phone every day I'd still only have 2 minutes and 16 seconds to play with each one including startup and teardown time until the next day. But as a matter of fact I, for one, do use activities not related to communications more often then those which do. Android tablets (even pre-honeycomb ones) make perfect sense.
tl;dr: don't
