Looks interresting. Any screenshots?

i think the idea is great! have you seen the iphone interface for ORB.com?? I would love to see one for windows mobile if you get around to it.

Thanks so much for this app i have not had time to test it but noticed no icon file so i made picasa-icon.zip this hope it helps a little
Also added the icon to exe here PocketPicasa.zip

It works great on my HTC Touch XL (P3452).
Of course, the UI is perfectible ... but thank you for this program

Awsome ,I will implement the icons this evening.

UI, what UI I spent 3 hours on the program , I will spend some more time on it tomorrow, this was me learning google api's
Please send Ideas for UI, I will look at the Iphone interface tonight.

Very very good idea.
I test it.

Actually, there's two ways around that. WinAmp Mobile works very well (and is free) and does most everything Orb does. Or, if you want to spend $30, Kinoma (which actually uses Orb) is probably the best multimedia program I've used on WM.

Anytime I try to upload it says unexpected error and closes....? Using an AT&T Tilt... On another note the GUI looks awesome icons and everything. I normally change the icons in the start menu the one is the only one that I haven't changed it looks pretty smooth...

Hi Alkhal
Icon thanks to wapvirus . Right down to your problem.
Are you using Email upload or direct Upload?
Email has a draw back that you have to send and receive your email before it shows up in the album.
I can build you a special version to help debug this issue, if you are willing to test it for me?
I guess if you are the only one with problems, the weeks effort was worth it.

[App] [Update Version 1.0.0.2] TPSMP - The Pocket Stream Media Player -

TPSMP - The Pocket Stream Media Player -
- Version 1.0.0.2 -
TPSMP works on Pocket PC 2003, Windows Mobile 5 and Windows Mobile 6.
This application allows you to play Radio and TV Streams with your Pocket PC. The streams are stored in a mobile database. You only have to choose a stream and click connect.
This application is written in Visual Basic.NET. So you need to install the .net runtime and sql server mobile.
You can get it from here:
.net runtime: Download!
sql server mobile: Download!
The player functions are hacked out from the windows media player.
..:: C H A N G E L O G ::..
TPSMP:
Version 1.0.0.2 (13.02.2009)
#Fixed: Install Directory
#Fixed: Anchor Elements to Screensize
#Fixed: Get Path (Database not found)
Version 1.0.0.1 (12.09.2009)
#Added: Button Clickstyle (Change Buttonsyle onclick)
Version 1.0.0.0 (11.02.2009)
#Added: First Release
Database:
Version 1.0.0.0 (11.02.2009)
#Added: First Release
Things are be planned:
- More default Streams
Note!!! This application will eat many of bandwith. So you should use Wifi, ActiveSync or flat 3G. Wont´t work very well with GPRS.
Download the lastest Version (1.0.0.2) from here: CLICK
Please comment or send bug reports!!!
If you like my work, please DONATE.
Thanks a lot ...

The default stream database will updated soon because a few streams dosen´t work yet.

Couldn't use it... Seems to have problems with my OS localization?! My system uses pathnames with chars such as "ã" and "ó". Does the app support full unicode? It complains it cant find the path to the database file which is in \A minha memória\TPSMP\Database...
Also noticed it doesn't install inside the "Program files" folder (or respective localization name) but rather installs to the root of the selected drive.
Could you tweak the position of the buttons and stuff so that they'll be right above the bottom bar? I have an Omnia (WQVGA) and there is empty space between the button bar and bottom bar...
What kind of media does it currently support? Also rather than using WMP wouldn't TCPMP be a better option? Either that or have built-in player capabilities like using ffmpeg for ppc...
Looking forward to try it

Hy,
it´s a bug in the get application path function. It appears when you have a blank in the path. I will fix this horrible bug!!!
Currently it only supports the codecs given from WMP.
Greatz

-> FIXED!
If you have an idea for tcpmp and ffmpeg plz talk to me.
Thx.

Sorry I have no idea... Not a coder.
Just thought that the ffmpeg.dll could be used to make TPSMP not depend on WMP. But for what I read in it's release thread the current compile has the network functions disabled... If it were to be used it may need to be recompiled with these functions active.
Nice to see you already fixed those

No prob. I will talk to milesmowbray. Maybe he can give me a hint.

Thx it works I like it I can even add my own Channels thats coool and it plays really really well better then TCMP for me no buffering

I'am very glad to hear this.
Thanks
mccoffein

TV works nice but for some reason I haven't been able to use radio... I usually get messages from WMP like "Access is denied" (Bayern), "The parameter is incorrect", "Unable to open file. The file is damaged or not supported by the player", "At the moment it's impossible to perform the requested action" (rough translation from portuguese message)...
I reckon the interface is not the priority at the moment. I have two small suggestions:
1- Fullscreen on image/video press (like TCPMP).
2- A small suggestion on the volume control. How about something similar to the way TouchPlayer on the Omnia does it (easier on the finger)? Volume bar pops up when the volume button on screen is pressed.

looks nice.
I will test it and report back

[APP IDEA] Sightseeing Helper

I had a dream..
When I walked through Sanssouci Castle in Potsdam my girlfriend asked me a lot of questions about the castle and other Points of Interest. I took my raphael off my pocket every time to opened wikipedia and check for answers. Suddenly i had a very nice idea about an application for tourists. So if anyone knows a solution for any of the following features that would be nice:
1. mobile submits gps coordinates to a kind of server
2. server checks for POIs and looks up text about it (e.g. on wikipedia.org)
3. server sends text files to mobile
4. mobile "reads" text about POI so user can listen to it over headset while watching the POI
Doesn't that sound interesting?
what we need is a way to "translate" GPS coordinates to the name of a Point of interest if one exists there. Then we need to be able to get the text about the POI from a (free) online source and a text2speech engine thats reads it to the user.
Any ideas?

I like the idea. Here's something similar for Android
Have you seen this:
http://www.mobilizy.com/wikitude.php
amazing integration of the handsets features.

Yeah i read about that program before, its amazing. So it just needs to be ported to winmo

Free applications as per request

Hi all
I am a software developer and I am interested in developing smartphone applications on my spare time (and I have a lot) for free.
What I need is ideas…. Meaning, me my self has HTC Diamond and all of my application needs is modest but I am sure that you guys probably have more needs then I do and …. My be you can help me help you … so bring on the ideas (… just not themes and all of this kind of applications).
Thanks

Very good.
Okay, I've got a request:
I need a little program, which is the same like BluePower which switches BT on when connecting to AC but a little bit more extended.
So, 2 things are very needed:
1. A popup which asks if BT should really switched on (YES/NO; Standard: YES)
2. This prog should recognize if a BT-device is connected so BT should stay on when loosing AC-Power
That's for now

- how about an application that converts any selected email or sms into an appointment
simple but very very usuful

photo uploader
hi, i'm looking for a program to upload, pictures/photo's/video to my own website. like, you make a picture and then you can select to upload it to your own specified website. maybe also the posebillety with gps position and some comments. don't know if it's possible.
pls think about it!
grtz heyk

hey i m looking for photoeditor for elfin can u made it

Really cool would be, to have an small app like g-profile, which for example turns on wi-fi on an fixed placed at an fixed time.
for example i come home, it recognizes this gsm singnal, and wi-fi turns on.
or i get to work, its not yet my breakt and it turns the volume to just vibra. than my break starts and volume turns up.
gprofile can do such thing but just with one reason, gsm OR time, i would need both

i want if you fancy making a simple but functional hard key program swapper so i can change the hardkeys setting easily to other programs.

thanks for the offer wish I could do this.
I wouldlike to log calls in contact notes like agendasfusion.
callcalendaris close but buggyand logsonly incalendar.
a weather app like weatherpanel where wallpaperis live radar
a calculator app with running tape, and a transparent keyboard

looks like youre gonna be busy!
i was thinkin recently of working with someone to make some palm pre-like apps
the fluidity of the apps on that device ive seen in preview vids and the wonderful use of the small screen real estate (no top and bottom bars, minimal buttons), is something that is almost necessary on screens like my htc touch (same screen size as the palm pre)
so, i would provide all the graphics for these apps, just need a developer
i think so far pocketcm contacts has contacts/sms covered.. very smooth scrolling, with a skin i can acheive the same simplicity and great use of fullscreen view on a small screen as i whippd up in this photoshop mockup:
i think what winmo needs is a good email interceptor app.. there are none that are skinnable to the extent of pocketcm contacts or as fluid, and then an image viewer (see palm pre screenshots of that app here -simple but very useful-:http://www.engadget.com/photos/palm-pre-official-ui-shots-1/1290333/ you can find videos all over) and a similar calendar app
most needed is the email app
if you could develop trust me.. you would have an insane following of obedient users
weve been looking for one for a long time, but its never come thru
if you make it, ill provide graphics!
think about it
htctoucher

What about a application, an actual good and working application that lets you create group distribution lists for email groups in your contacts similar to how the blackberry allows you to do it from their contact list and be able to use the group listing whether creating a new email or forwarding an email. I am shocked that this issue hasn't been addressed sooner.

Complete lack of integration between calendar + contacts and email + contacts is very disheartening!

My problem is that I do a lot of presentations, and all the presentation pointer/remote apps out there cannot meet my needs in terms of simplicity. All of them require me to run a server app on my PC.
I have used one in Palm that emulates a bluetooth HID keyboard/mouse, meaning it can do anything that your mouse or keyboard can do. The app requires to have virtual keys for Ctrl, Alt, Del, Function keys.

Papi Jump
Hi!
My idea is to make a game, similar to Papi Jump (a great game for iPhone) - you can see the game on this link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vQxltToeNXo . It's an arcade game - you control a jumping ball with tilting your device.
It would be great if could make this game work for Windows Mobile.

Since we're all tossing stuff into the "wishing well", I can add something too
An application that would scroll RSS feeds on Home screen in Manila.
Of course, such an app isn't hard to make, the RSS Hub saves its channels into simple files - the problem is how to incorporate it into Home screen.
Well, I got an idea for that as well! Recently a small program called Personalizer showed up that enables us to change the network provider name into anything we want - that would be the perfect place for RSS scroller to show up! And since there already exists a way to modify this data, I suppose it would be possible to use Personalizer as backdoor for the feeds to show up in that text filed!
Even if they wouldn't actually "scroll", I think they could be made to change every 4-5 seconds.

Or how about a Config-Editor for FingerPoint? ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=499734 ) - so there's no more need to edit the XML Config File manually?

How about an application that reminds you to drink water and tracks how much water you have drank per day. As everyone should know, the average male should drink 3 to 5 liters of water everyday and ladies should drink 2 to 4 liters.
How about a litle app that:
1-Reminds you to drink
2-Allows you to input how much water you have drank (when reminded or manually)
In the long run, you could monitor how much water you consume on a monthly,qaurterly ,biannually and yearly basis.

[APP] rumen's Guitar - WM6 guitar aplication with chords

App name: rumen's Guitar
License: Freeware
System requirements:
OS: WM5 and higher, CF3.5
Hello everyone,
recently I've been searching for a working guitar aplication for WM6 and full touchscreen (like HD2) but I didn't find anythig useful.
So I decide to wrote one by myself. This app is far away from perfect, but I'm new in developing and I will improve it in the future.
I will upload and some videos soon.
For future implementations :
- load text files in that empty text box - for song and lyrics that you can see them during playing;
- increase the quality of sound - it is very poor now;
- multitouch - if it is possible;
- improve speed of playing;
- to put some strings ;
- distosion ......
There is a lot of things that can be done. This is just a start point.
See you soon.
Rumen.
Newer version available: v1.1
New feautures:
1. Strings and some graphic.
2. Text box for lyric and chords with buttons for movement.
3. Load, edit and save txt files.
Newer version available: v1.2
New feautures:
1. Added exit function - File ->Exit
2. Workable link in help menu.

Thanks!!!
Nice app and great job, Rumen! WM 6.x really misses guitar-simulation apps. The only one I've known so far is Iperov's guitar. So, big thanks for you work!
I've been working on guitar app too. Hope to publish it on XDA-developers soon.
As for the version 1.1 of you app:
It would be great if an app didn't stay in memory when it is closed by pressing cross button.

Well, actually this is a WM function - programs are not closed when you press
X button, there are just minimized and stays in memory.
However, I will add an exit function this night

just download it and looking forward to give it a try... 1000 appreciation to rumen...

excellent
Thanks big for the excellent program!
This best that is today. I like a sound and speed of its work.
If you have a possibility to make little changes it would be ingenious!
1. To choose skin for the program (without a text field).
2. Work in the full screen.
3. A sound stop through long pressing strings.
4. Record, listen and save the played melodies. Background playing.
5. Sound change (acoustics, electric, rock, metal).
I will be glad to see your new work.

skin
I offer such skin

love your work... u make my life full of joy....... 1000 appreciations

Thank you for appreciations. Glad that you like this app.
I know that there are a lot of things that can be done.
Will try some of the prepositon soon.
Unfortunally, the time is awlays against us.

QVGA got scrollbars, but works ok.
Olleg1 made good proposals.
Lyrics textbox useless, if you hold PDA as guitar.
Also, "iperov's Pocket Guitar" has open sources which may (or may not) be helpful

editor of chords
Hi, rumen80. With impatience I wait for new versions of your program.
One more offer: add please the editor of chords, with possible preservation in base.
Hands are scratched for test a new skin with the big buttons of chords .
rumen's Guitar to give me pleasures from night game.

That's great.. waited for ages.. SUPPORTING
will be great with distort and much better graphics
