[Q] Shift win mob screen resolution - Shift General

Hi everyone, I have liberated and hardspl'd my shift and install a custom Rom to enable phone etc.
All had gone well but of course screen resolution doesn't fill the whole screen area, I have read that it's too do with the coding in hardspl ? apparently real vga etc doesn't fix it, increase resolution but not surface area.
I know of one Rom that might have fixed it being Project Blackstone but it's no longer available!
Are there any roms available that sort this issue? or software tweaks that fix the screen area?
As the Rom I have is great it's just a shame it doesn't use the full 800x480
Any assistance much appreciated.

[REQ] Touch HD Camera Extracted CAB

Hey everybody i was wondering if its possible to get the TOUCH HD Camera cab.... because of its Touch Focus ofcourse
that would be amazing....also i was wondering if its possible to get 850 mhz without installing a new ROM...cuz i think the warranty with ROGERS is voided if i do rite?
what exactly is touch focus?
in Touch HD....u can click on sum1's face or any object and the camera will focus on it...instead of Touch Diamond's ,where it'll focus to what/whoever the middle cursor is on.
i knw touch HD has 5mp. and alot of possibility of it not being possible...but i thought i'd ask anyway just incase theres a production happening....or even a way to control the focus by swipe of a hand? ...
that would be really nice!!!!
i would really like to see this
i think it need to be coverted to VGA
there is no way it will start directly
so we hope someone do this
someone from HD forum try to run Sony X1 camera but it didnt work (both of them is WVGA)
now he trying to make it working
wow okay...so i guess thers that itty bitty chance it can work...thats GREATTTT
well i managed to run xperia camera on my raphael but due the screen is bigger i couldn't get all of the camera stuff on my screen so it has to be resized down to vga.. well and i couldn't access any menu on the camera.. think xperia has a dedicated camera button and it has to be keymapped to the Raphael.. diamond and raphael is very similar phones so i guess if anyone managed to convert the sizes it might work.. could anyone with blackstone try to extract the camerarunner.exe file i guess it would be and get the resources and language files for it?.. well or manage to share the blackstone camera files here..
oh ya this looks sweet i can test anythig you want i have 2 diamonds so it dont matter if one gets messed up
theres also another thing i mite ask....
is there a way to manually focus..is this impossible??
sumhow alter the VALUE of focus? or however that works...
cuz i know the diamond phone can focus on really close objects but it won't...during the "autofocus' process..i see my object clear and then it goes away...so thats also another bummer...
if sumhow we can control the focus manually that'll be crazieeee
hey just wanna add another thing...
is it possible to manually change the focus length??
if so...that'll be awesomee...

HW Accelerated NFS Not Working - Solution Thread

Hey,
Due to the other NFS Hardware accelerated G-Sensor thread becoming cluttered with links and people comparing it to iPhone version, I have raised this thread.
Please can people post possible solutions to the various errors people get. I, for one, get a black screen and non-responsive phone right after the NFS UNDERCOVER screen after it asks if I want sound.
I've also had the no memory error on another ROM.
The strange thing is it worked on the original drivers, changed to ATI and it stopped working. Changed back - still not working. Reinstalled the ROM (hard reset) and STILL not working.
Solutions please, along with the problems that are solved with that solution.
Cheers!
Omnia drivers
Try Omnia 3d Drivers ;-)

Thanks for the suggestion but I really don't think this is a good idea. For one, the Omnia drivers have already been tried and they are in relation to Direct3D-accelerated apps/games etc so it is not applicable to an OpenGLES-accelerated game such as NFS Undercover. Secondly, it has been found that in the case of D3D, the Samsung drivers have done better than the native software rendering drivers provided by HTC. However, the best drivers for the Diamond and other HTC phones with such a Qualcomm MSM7201A 528Mhz chipset is that the ATI ones are hardware-accelerated D3D drivers, and hence are the best for D3D. Not OGLES.
Some off-topicness, but some clarifications so others don't fall in the same pitfalls.
I think the real problem lies in the differences between the original HTC ROM and cooked ROMs. If we can figure out what specific difference is causing the black screen (I have it too), then we can figure out a solution quick enough. Hopefully.
Strange thing is - i've had it working on cooked roms. It was only after i changed to ATI drivers did it stop working.
Also, as I said, when I re-installed the same ROM (hard-reset) it wasnt working again.
Needless to say I'm completely confused!
Thanks for the clarification though Nuke, didn't know that!
nuke1 is 100% right... I'm also 100% sure that the ATI drivers does nothing to improve the performance in NFS Undercover since it's an OpenGL ES game.
The ATI drivers are D3D drivers.

After trying with several rooms and several ways (Cab extraction, cab instalation, etc) it worked with the MAcadam v1.2 when i extracted it and transfered to the storage. I don't know why also, but others cooked rooms didn't worked. Trying to foun out cause i want it to work on my own rom...
Found a way to fix it
Enable TF3D!
Any idea why enabling Touch3d would make the game work?
Down point about this : TF3D stops the fone going into landscape so cant play in landscape :-( But still works!
Need to see if anyone has an answer!
My recent experience with the black screen - it didn't work using Shep's WM6.5 until I enables TF3D2. Something about the G-sensor drivers with HTC versus the native WM6.5. I tried removing video drivers, adding drivers. For me, it all boiled down to the g-sensor. Cooked roms might be hit and miss based on what the chefs do with the g-sensor stuff.
In my case it just doesn't work. I use standard HTC ROM, I disable TF3D to get extra memory, and everything, but I just can't get pass the black screen that freezes my phone completely, so I have to soft reset. This only happens in G-sensor version. Other one, with on screen comands runs with no problem. It would just be much better to control the car with tilting. Tried to look for solution several places, but no one seems to know the solution to this one. Looks like no NFS for me
I am using XBMOD Manila Rom, in that it was working excellently
where do you guys get nfs i've looked for it but it says its not for diamond
can someone post a link?
you have to buy it.It's not free.Or if you want you can download the trial version
Yes i no that but i cant find the correct one there supoosively 2

Manila 2.5

Research for me has turned up somewhat conflicting results, so I ask if the community can shed some light, and in turn enlighten some of us who are in the dark.
Please correct me as I am sure there are some flaws in my knowledge here.
1. Manila / Sense 2.5 has been released officially, but only for the HD2 / Leo? And as such will only be released for this device.
leading to 2. therefore, the TP2 will never have *official* support for Manila 2.5 and it's lovely widget home / full-screen weather home screens
leading to 3. The Leo has no need for landscape support for all it's stuff because it doesn't have a keyboard?
leading to 4. I can discern that Manila 2.5 has added features such as Tiwtter integration and what has really piqued my interest, this "footprint" lark.
leading to 5. I am confused about Manila. It's obviously the program the runs the fancy TF3D interface jibbery-joo, but in some places I get the impression that it's heavily integrated into the windows ROM and so must come already baked in, and in other places It seems like it could almost be a cab file, ready for install?
leading to 6. does anyone know if HTC plans to give us poor TP2 users a widgetized home screen?
leading to 7. In some screen shots I have seen both the widgetised home screen, weather animations and footprint screen in use on what otherwise appears as Manila 2.1, especially the footprints things. Is this a seperate, installable module?
If it is possible to install the components (like footprints) or Manila 2.5 seperately, is there anyone offering them up, can't find them myself?
Many thanks for listening, it's all getting rather confusing.
Landscape support
Go to the aplications side of the thread. Theres apost called "Project Pulse"
Its a mod of 2.5 that supports landscape in all tabs but is still in early form with a few bugs. The developer is working on the bugs and will continue to update it. Its deffinatly worth looking at if you want to see landscape support for 2.5

well friend this doesn't need to be in the rom section but ill see what i can do with your questions.
1. yep it has been made for the htc touch hd 2 but i am guessing it will be made for future devices and touchflo 3d will be gone for good kinda of like what happend between touch flo 2d when 3d came out.
2. it is very doubtful that the touch pro 2 will get an upgrade like 90% chance of no.
3. Yea pretty much why they didn't just make a landscape now is beyond me i know they will eventually maybe if that rumor about the touch hd pro comes out or something.
4 Yea 2.5 has twitter app which really is just alright i would rather use twikini. And footprints has been out for awhile on touch flo 2d.
5.Its kinda of both in a sense there are plenty of cabs for touch flo 3d but it is built in by htc as a more or less skin such as spb mobile shell.
6. Very doubtful htc loves moving forward with things.
7.If you could show us a pic i might be able to answer that but someone would have to port footprints to 2.1 and i really doubt thats gonna happend any time soon.

Thanks for your answers man.
You're right it shouldn't be in the ROM section. But I kind of ummed and aarrred about it, and as you said yourself, it's a mixed bag whether manila is cooked in or not. Haha.
But very informative and I appreciate the time your took to reply. Kind of gives a good indication.

I was trying to install sense 2.5 in my TP2 until now ! thanks for posting this
i wanted so much a good rom with 2.5 for my tp2.. what i wanted was a french version of the fusion rom, but as we know, attomang seems to have vanished because of some scamming business he tried...
however here's what i think about the OFFICIAL future of sense 2.5 in landscape : pocket now showed us some leaked pictures of upcoming htc models coming in 2010 (based on some xda informations), and it comes out that there's a tp2-like device coming out.. so if it isn't an android based device, i think we can hope that it will come with 2.5 (and that we can base our future roms on the one that will be provided with it)
---> look at thje third one called "TERA"
http://pocketnow.com/tech-news/hot-three-new-htc-windows-mobile-phones-for-2010
(sorry if me english bad.. me native language french xD)
EDIT / for /7/ "home creen animated...".. it is present in the official 6.5 upgrade (so it's a winmo6.5 with sense 2.1) -- animated weather is on with the default wallpaper (or you can say when no wallpaper is chosen, or set for the homecreen)

List your HD2 mods

I'm kind of a NOOB here, sorry...
I have a Tmobile US HD2 that I'm pretty happy with. I've looked through the forums, and have installed some of the apps, made some of the registry changes, etc...
That being said, there's a TON of info on the forums, so I thought it might be a good idea to ask everyone to list everything they've done to their HD2's in one place. I'm pretty happy with the way mine is currently set up, but of course I'm interested to learn from everyone else's knowledge and experience here. Thanks!
So here goes...
My info / proposed format in the next post
Here is my info...
TMobile HD2
Software Information Tab:
OS 5.2.21889
Manila 2.5.20121412.1
ROM 2.10.531.1 (82076) WWE
ROM Date 2/22/10
Radio 2.08.50.08_2
Protocol 15.34.50.07U
Mods:
No flashing of radio / roms (are there even any for this phone yet?)
Software:
Cookie's Home Tab Mod
CHT Editor
CM WiFi Internet Sharing
HTC HD CommManager_3G (Modified the registry so I didn't lose push/wifi function)
Dutty's Task Manager
MichyPrima HTC Lockscreen 2.0 WVGA
Other:
I keep my 3G off most of the time, and keep my lcd backlight at 20 or 30% to conserve battery life.
you really may wanna take a look around the forum. there are allot of ROM's for the HD2 and I personally am running Energy 6.5.X series and have all of them but the HD Mini mod cooked into the ROM.
Thanks!
Yeah I've looked at the Energy ROM but I'm not quite sure I'm ready to take that plunge just yet. Can you give me your opinion of why I should? Part of the reason I started this thread was to see what others have done and where they started from.
Are you using a US or EU model HD2?
What ROM/Radio/etc... did you start with.
I also have the US TM HD2. I mainly installed Bsbtweaks, chainfire 3d driver, lumos. Otherwise it's stock.
I've also been tempted by the com manager 3g, but the first time I installed it I lost wifi option. I had to hard reset to restore everything to original. I might look into it again at some point.
not so much a software mod...
ive put a small peice of tinted film over the flash l.e.ds so they dont wash out everything within 3 metres!
much better shots indoors

joshzzz2001: I know that Cookie Monster (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=625483) highly recommends the chainfire 3d driver. That carries a lot of weight in my book. I haven't installed it myself yet, but I will with the 1.7 version of the CHT Mod which should be released soon.

what type of film have you used to cover leds ?
thanks
it was an off-cut from when i limo tinted the rear window of my van (so i can see out but thieves cant see in ) it was an 80% tint IIRC, ask about on some car forums, you'll find someone with abit left over
***although it took me 3 attempts with different makes of tinting film (and wasting a few quid in the process) that i aqquired from various people on the car-club im a member of, as some of the cheaper brands turn the l.e.d light purple lol***
CHT and Editor
Color Taskbar (Steve's)
Custom bottom bar (Steve's)
Remove start/close button
Diniks Anastasia icon set
Diniks slider (button only)
Diniks Anastasia lockscreen (button only)
Andrew in working's alternative slider (Dinik style)
Custom boot splash
SRS WOW
stock tmo rom but 3d driver,cookies tab, bsb are a must. everything else is pefrences..registry tweaks to opera..sms stuff..audio boozter is needed..take a look at app stickies / tweakin stickies in app section and this general section.

I think it helped for MorphGear. MorphGear didn't really run the games until I installed the driver. (This isn't conclusive since I didn't do extensive testing.) For regular HD2 use, I can't say I notice a difference since it probably doesn't require too much graphics processing.
This is great! Thanks all... Keep em coming!
Thanks for the participation. This is exactly what I was looking for.
I've replaced the Michyprima HD Mini Lockscreen with Chris10230's Middle Lockscreen...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=656441
This moves the standard lock slider from the top of the screen down to the middle, which is perfect.
I agree about the BsB tweaks, I've installed and am running that and it's great.
Question: What's the Chainfire 3D driver do if you're not into gaming?
CoOkie Home Tab 1.7 is RELEASED!
Just installed CHT 1.7 and am working on the CHT Editor now. A must have for the HD2!

[Q] Time and Date input

Hallo,
I need a little bit help.
I had a very special older software, it runs good on the HTC HD mini. At this software are some drop-down buttons for time and date. If I click on one, then I get windows with a calender or a time-window, but the windows are to big and so I can´t tab all buttons.
Is there any possibility to get the windows smaller and tab all buttons. I think it´s a special problem of the HD mini with the smaller display.
I hope anyone has a solution.
best regards michael
hello
whats the name of the program?maybe it will be possible to edit the skin,layout,buttons and stuff..
one more thing..next time post in the right forum category......
you need the source of this application and without that , it's impossible to calibrate any details of this software to HVGA resolution.
so you have to find the main source of software ! or find that developer who programmed this sofware and ask him to fix this problem for HVGA.
