[Q] [email protected] configuration? - Windows 8 General

Hi!
I'm having a problem with [email protected] tile in the Metro UI. For some reason it doesn't show anything from my actual twitter feed and instead shows some other news feeds. If I go to the app itself everything is showing fine.
Is anyone else having this same problem? Maybe I changed some configurations yesterday but I can't be sure anymore.
The weather & stock tiles are working like charm though...?!?

or MS devs may not got it to load your profile perfectly

Metro social apps looking good...though i expect the are just as is for demonstration purposes. I expect when MS open the Store a fully fledged configurable apps will be available...

That's probably true, but just out of curiosity is anyone able to see their tweets in the Metro UI [email protected] tile?
As you can see mine just shows some news (from a source unknown to me) that has nothing to with my twitter feed.

mine wont show anything. The tile just says [email protected]

Mine shows the same random tweets. I want it to either just show the [email protected] tile or to draw from my Twitter feed instead. This is bunk.

WHAT'S UP!? what's it?
Windows Mobile notification inside my device looks different?
why?
did I missed something? or someone....
That looks nice. What's the link?

linked directly
I linked pictures directly, see pictures properties
@JGUI: He was probably asking for the link to the HTML page which originally embeds those images.

Saw that when I tried finding the Windows Mobile boot splash that had the progress bar on it a while ago. Ended up not finding that one, btw... if anybody knows where that went..
Why did you actually attach the same screenshot twice?
fixed, thanks for announce
I must say it looks very appealling to me. I wonder why they're there.. Should I try to create a today theme based on it?
i think, that it is just a fake of WM5 theme.
Look at the fonts and stuff.. positions of the soft buttons text..
hmm.. i don't know.

yih.. one of those "you *could* do this with customizations... (smallprint: if you want to spend a lot of time and money fighting our API and whatnot)
Notification bubbles are just HTML, so they could be real, but it would require access to the source code, so I imagine that bit is a Microsoft only level customisation. I've not investigated but I haven't seen any way of applying a user defiend template to notifications - but as each app is responsible for the look of its own notification, I'm doubtful.
That's not to say it's not possible to hack the system to intercept notifications and re-write them.

Froyo is making nice progress it seems, but I am not sure if you can put applications in there on your own. My guess, those icons are hardcoded in there.
As seen in this video @ 6:30 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0y7XJI4NN7k
It would be awful if they were hard coded. I'm ok with the phone button but maybe i wanna put something else in stead of the browser.
you should perhaps do a search before posting. this exact video is about 8 threads down, here
Interesting, a drop down icon below the google icon in the search widget... does that mean you can change your search engine?
Seems like they let you change orientation how you want in froyo Like cyangoen, or whoever did that mod did
Nice find. Anything can be changed
thats cool, I can roll with that.
maybe it's just me, but i don't find that launcher very attractive; i like the helixlauncher's ability to add 4 shortcuts, which looks much better than this

I'm guessing it's so you can choose options like Image search, local search, books etc.
That makes more sense to me, but who knows.
I love this since helixlauncher2 FC alot!
More home pages please
I liked the previous one better...
The update isn't launched yet and it can be anything....
Fingers crossed...
wish they would add the ability to turn the notification bar from white to black. I also like helixlauncher2's ability to remove the notification bar entirely from the homescreen.

No it doesn't. I haven't had a single crash in over a month. Maybe you should unbreak your phone.

Google as default calendar?

I apologize in advance if this question has been asked before, but, I absolutely HATE how the stupid samsung calendar is the default cal when making new events! I SWEAR THEY ARE STILL STUCK IN FEATURE PHONE WORLD! ahem, sorry for the outburst. Any way, is three a way to change that?
i'd like to know too.

X2 ^^ ... one feature that I missed the most that was on my G1 is the hyperlink of URL, address & phone number.
Especially the hyperlink for address, I drive around town alot for work, and plan my destinations on Calendar the night before. Not having the hyperlink to address has been a PITA.
s0niqu3 was able to push the stock 2.1 apps on to the Vibrant. Check out his post below. I haven't tried it out myself though.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=731822&highlight=calendar
Yeah nothing is more frustrating than putting in the address and when you want to navigate to it, it well doesn't work.
More specifically:
Replace touch wiz calendar with google default

That bar on top pisses me off, but I would rather have a tiny annoyance than using the TouchWiz calendar.
Follow the directions though, you have to remove the TouchWiz Calendar and TouchWiz Calendar Provider FIRST with a root file explorer or ADB (which I never got working), and then uninstall the residuals from Settings>Applications. THEN push/move the two apk's in the linked thread to system/app, then reboot.
You will lose access to a few TouchWiz widgets, and the home dock app won't work.

Email notification for account widget

Hi,
I'm using two email account on the Samsung client,
I would like to have a notification on the widget, so I could only open one in which I have new messages..
To have a notification for new email I must use Social Hub..
I know Gmail (Google client) has the notification in the widget...
Is it possible that Samsung did not think to add the widget of the notification email?

"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Mine shows a notification number,which will add up depending on how many unread emails there are.
here is a screeShot:
This is what Android is kicked for when compared to iOS. Not only are there thousands of devices behaving differently, but the same app in same device having small differences! (is it because of firmware upgrade)?
Lol what? I call it user error. If you add you account individually through the shortcuts, you wont get any notifications. If you add the actual app from the app drawer you will get notifications. Its been like that since the sgs2 and maybe original sgs. Im pretty sure the OP knows but theres also a widget for regular email app that you cant swipe through.
Even though our forum section is a little slow on development, you might want to check out the sgs2 section to see if anyone modded the email app. There basically the same phone.

Remove check for request desktop site and try again.

ahh you are right! thanks.
i prefer the desktop mode for chrome though, i have a scripted that always request desktop mode. So is it possible for me to use the aosp browser for google now and not have it link to chrome? google search doesnt give me an option to pick what browser to use like other apps do. The only way i can use something else is to uninstall chrome.
AOSP browser or any other one should work just fine.

but the google now weather card always opens chrome, how to i make it open the aosp browser without having to uninstall chrome? google now doesnt give the option to pick what apps to use.
Go into app info for chrome. Clear defaults under launch by default.
