Curious as to what this app does and how well it works. Anyone have a screenshot of this running.
Thanks
JM
I use TrueVGA and it works well. You can see all Icons only the CommManager is blurred.
Please attend the the correct order of installation.

2. MvRTrueVGA_v1.3.cab

Can I ask why you use TrueVGA (and not OzVGA)?
I've not tried either on the Ameo, and before I go for one, I was curious if anyone who has tried both knew of a reason to go for one instead of the other...

There are some problems with OzVga. For example, few Icons are missing.

I tried installing the files above, as OzVGA had always been somewhat a mixed bag of giddiness and disappointment for me.
In the end, I've had to uninstall TrueVGA as well, mainly because my signal meters and start menu icon etc etc would not show. I installed in the correct order and yet still nothing.
As a seasoned XDA-er, is there a trick I'm unwittingly missing?
Cheers

didnt lose my signal icon, but the one telling me if its G or 3G, connected to HSDPA etc seems to come and go now, rather than always be there as expected.
other than that, and some of the settings pages being messed up, works nicely.
Yeah, for my case, my data connection icon always display itself as trying to connect to a WiFi network even though that's not true. Some of the settings screens are badly messed up, as you have mentioned.
I have another query: does the Side Display works in true VGA mode?
I tried to attach the keyboard to the screen but nothing comes up.
The Keyboard did not work. I use the Resco Keyboard it is much better than the original.
Oh, I wasn't referring to the software keyboard input. I mean, when you attached the hardware keyboard onto the screen of the Athena, there will be one strip of visible space of the screen that shows some status like time, messages etc.
It works in normal VGA mode, but I cannot get the display in true VGA mode.

The "one strip of visible space of the screen" works ok in a true VGA mode in mine device. You should not attach but close by the keyboard the screen. Sometimes it doesn't show the white strip, but try to move a little bit the keyboard, because it reacts to by sencors to magnets on the keyboard.
Yeah, you're right. I need to move the keyboard around until the display comes on. Thanks!

My Comm Manager, phone pad, Connection icon (E (edge), etc) and password screen don't display properly. Did you have these issues and if so, how did you fix them?
Also, what did you use to create your theme? I want to create a new theme for the newer resolution.
Thanks in advance.
When I last used real VGA mode it was on my Universal.. Again there were icon problems, but on this very forum there were VGAFILES packs that had file to put in the windows directory that replaced the missing icons.
I cant remember the exact details, but I suggest people having problems look through the Universal forum for VGA info as there was a LOT there.
Hope this helps.
I have all about VGA screen's file for my universal. But since i still waiting for my athena, i can't decided wich file is needed. Just icon or something?
Is anyone using SPB Mobile Shell with any of the VGA apps? If I have it loaded on the today screen, the pda locks up when it tries to dispay the Today screen. The only fix thus far is to remove it from the Today screen.
Thanks

yes u are right the pda locks when using SPB Mobile shell. i have a question about the keyboard how to use it because in true VGA mode i see NO keyboard its white space with no letters and also can someone confirm if resco keyboard can be used in trueVGA mode?
I´am using the Resco keyboard and it works fine.
ANyone please help. My BA's Touchscreen is cracked and not functioning anymore. But for now i need to use it. When sending SMS i have to touch or press the Send button from the touch screen. But since my screen doesnt work anymore, is there a way like assigning the "Send" button into the hardware key?
Or is there any application that can do this? Anyone please help!
Thanks in advance!
hi
what do u mean cracked?there is a picture and there is no tap action?or there is no picture and response anymore?there is like damage in lcd like un usual colors and rabush and lines?because may be if u change the rom or re-upgrading the rom,may be the problem fixed,specially in minor problems.
i think u cannot send msgs without tap action.
there is a crack, display is okay, but touch response is not fuctioning well, the only thing i notice is that, when i press on the right bottom most of the screen, sometime touch works and sometimes not works. I been trying to do the Align screen method but doesnt work. i think it is the hardware problem.
if that sms is really that important to you, you can always connect the device to the pc and when connected to activesync a nice little freeware called "my mobiler" can be used to control the device with the pc's mouse and keyboard and gets the device's screen on your pc screen. it can be downloaded here:
http://www.mymobiler.com/
but after bypassing the problem for now, we should focus on getting the thing fixed. you could answer homam_france's questions to help us determine what exactly went wrong and maybe you don't need to bypass then anymore but can solve the problem!
EDIT: ignore the request for more information, you already answered while i was writing this
@Chef_Tony
Thank you, but that is what I am doing right now. But my problem is that when i am not in from of my pc and I need to send important sms? Maybe there is a software that can map the Send softkey to hardware key.
Thanks again!
you could try this program:
http://classic.pocketgear.com/software_detail.asp?id=21070
there is a trial version there, and if you can install, start and control that program without the use of the touch screen, or from your pc, maybe you can tell it to for example, map the left softkey with the mail hardware key or something like that, i haven't tested it. if that prog is not right, on the bottom of that page there is a link for related applications, maybe one of those helps you.
if, however, the remapping of the keys does not work, for a different sms application, you could try:
iwindowsmobile sms chat:
http://iwindowsmobile.com/threaded-sms-messaging.html
visual it simple sms:
http://www.visualit.co.uk/PocketPC/simplesms_V5.htm
or this one:
http://www.mobileflipper.com/mobile-tips/sms-application-for-windows-mobile-50-60-and-61/
maybe their way of hitting the send button is different and works for your device.
by the way, on any normal mobile phone, you can also send an sms by pressing the green call button, unfortunately, ppc phones don't do that.

Why don't you just go to Setting/Personal/Buttons and map a button to "<Left Softkey>"
Thanks to everyone
Thanks to you all. I finally got a chance to fix my touch screen. not bad at all. except that i forgot to right fit the volume hardware keys.
Be very careful with the Volume key, if you don't close the case wright, you might broke the switch (a little switch on the mainboard that is moved by the volume key). Just make shure it's in the wright place when closing the case
Hi to all.
What can I do in case the ba is working, the screen is perfect but no more touch? it's a os 5.2.1933(18533.0.7.0)
thanks
that can happen but it has probably nothing to do with the rom. it means that the digitizer is broken and you need to look for a new one, maybe a good ebay search or a post in xda's marketplace could help you
thanks 4 the reply. Do you mean a new lcd screen?
no, just the digitizer, it is the see through touch panel on top on the actual display, maybe you are lucky and find a cheap one, as you don't need a new screen.
you can buy a new digitizer on dealextreme.com, i recall a few months ago they were selling the digitizers for Blueangel devices, its very easy to disassemble the BA & replace it. Good luck.
BA Screen alignment settings at HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\TOUCH
Can any of the members pl. post the screen alignment settings available at Registry entry Screen alignment settings for BA and/or variants at HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\HARDWARE\DEVICEMAP\TOUCH
Value Name: CalibrationData
Value data:
? (5 sets of data)
Value type: REG_SZ
Value Name: MaxCalError
Value Data: ?
Base : Decimal
Value type: REG_DWORD
With these values most of the BA devices with defective touch screen can become functional to large extent.
Actually we can add the values to the BA Wiki
Regards
here's the CalibrationData:
17 154,258 154,788 865,785 859,262
i dont have a MaxCalError key.
Good luck,

Hi DTD,
Thanks for the prompt reply. Pl. verify the data provided by you as it doesnt seem to have the 5 sets for the CalibrationData values & repost correctly.
Thanks in advance

Marble world 2 worked in full screen onece now the bottom is always chopped off??
why do some full screen apps sometimes get "chopped" off at the bottom / top its odd.
i cant make nester work on tp2 atall yes it loads but again chopped off at bottom would not landscape and tp2 would not allow me to assign keyboard keys to controll it i attempted to configure the controls many times to no avail
the sims 2 says only works in landscape mode pls change screen oriantation and try again; did this to no avail it switches to portrait when it loads then throuhs up the error
picodrive did not work it loaded up and then crashed and closed
anyone with some light on the above things would be brill! thanks
so sorry if this is the wrong section for this post!
I hade that same problem, solved it after installing MorphGear,,
Check this out
http://www.spicypixel.com/web/page/morphgear/Download.aspx
First install the morphgear.. than install the emulator you want ( in your case the Ines )
Its working perfect, you can also assign the keys you want, and get full screen with sound..
Try it ouT !
soon as the misses put her naff tv on tonight i will be checking this out! is morphgear an emulator its self?
how do you get it to go full screen? Right now mine is like a 150 by 150 pixel screen haha.
nvm i got it, in case anybody wonders you just set the screen size from 100% to window size.
it will not flip round to landscape how does one do this it does in the menu when first loaded but the black background and the morph gear logo dont go landscape and neither do the games also some games i load it says no memmory error and loads console up but it means nothing. when i try to landscape it it emains in portrait i.e if i open the keyboard hoevery the bottom off the application chops of 10mm and tou can see the today screen behind it
how do you get the pretend on screen game pad to work also?
What emulators are you using?
problems to config the inputs buttons on TP2 soft morphgear
what'sup everybody, well i have one problema with morphgear, everything is ok but the inputs buttons i just can't config, when i tap the (...) and than tap the button that i would like to change appears the number 229.
i can config the directional only. inthe case of the street fighter for exemple the low punch,medium punch and high punch is the number 229,smae thing with the kicks. i'm stock with just one button but i have 5 other to config. i have the 229 number
help me plz....
i got the same problem and can`t find anny solutions :S
(you can use the "Ctrl", "Del" and the 1. button on the front, but its only 3 buttons and there position is not good for playing)
Try using K For Raphael from this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=425646
It worked for me.
The only thing that's still a bit weird is assigning the d-pad buttons. Up and Down seem to be switched with Left and Right, so I have to assign them differently. Anyone else having this problem?

yes... it's an issue. the k for raphael.cab needs to be edited to work with the tp2. although the keyboard from the tp is close, obviously, its mapped differently. I can get it to work once in a while but has to be remapped every stinking time you open Morphgear! hopefully, someone with a little skill can fix this soon...
The Rhodium (Touch Pro 2) is a WVGA (Wide VGA) device, which means it has screen resolution of 480x800. Normal VGA is 480x640, so there's a "bar" of 800-640=160 pixels left over at either the bottom or top of your screen when using applications which are written for VGA display.
However, there is a tool which virtually forces your screen to VGA. Basically this means you'll still have the black bar, but all VGA apps will work. Search this forum for "WVGA fix" and fetch it.
As for the black bars being there, call it evolution. I'm rather certain your TV gives you programs in 4:3 and 16:9, black bars are common there too, live with it as it's better than stretched images

True, that program works well. Been waiting use it since I had my htc wizard. Wish we could get the r for tp2 so we could have the buttons mapped properly.
emulation
Well there is smartgear that works great for 5 dollars. Also have you guys heard of Fcpse1.0 it a playstation emulator that works great.
Hi @ll
I have a little, perhaps easy question. I am currently building an app which works with several address. A nice feature of my app would be, to start the installed navigation software (tomtom, navigon, ...) with the target address to automatically start navigation.
Now I have seen that there is the so called Navipanel from HTC which does something simillar. But how does it work? I just own the HTC HD not the HD2 with the latest one. Are there any specifications for the navigation software to start them with a specific address?
C YA @LL
Nobody knows?
sensors and functions and navipanel
nekromonekron!!!!
The question is not correct not how,but where is the navi panel working..?
In Touch pro absolutely.In other phones,not so well.But there is a fantastic expantion video even here in this forum.Look for touch lock proThis little program is free,and comes with a website tutorial,and there is the video.Even google is helping you.Just search for it.
Navi panel is the one below the touch screen,and actualy it has the buttons for navigate the phone and for touching them,or better to say swipe your finger into many diff. directions,you activate sertain function.The functions are limited to your phone.What made it is,what functions are aviable on it....
hope it helps somehow Helios

Thanks for your answer, but I think we are talking about two totally different things ... I am talking about the so called "Navi Panel", which is a panel activated when you put your HTC into a car kit. With this panel you can start a certain navigation software (Navigon, TomTom, etc.) with several parameters. For example, with the Navi Panel you can start the navigation software and let it start the navigation to your home location, without any fingertip. Or start the navigation to a certain address from your contact list without entering the address into your navigation software. And that's what I want to know: How is it possible to start a navigation software with a destination parameter?
woooww.This is something new for me.sorryyyy.

Just been getting a Samsung S5E tablet I have always used chrome but on trying to add a website url to the home screen it only created the icon to the domain url eg when I try to add this url https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-51768274 the icon crwate the link to bbc.co.uk only. I add this via the 3 dots at the top left then click add to home screen.
This works fine in my Huawei phone using android.
Has anybody else got this issue or does everyone else manage to get this to work.
Thanks in advance
