Every resolution is supported. The two configuration files LANDSCAPE.XML and PORTRAIT.XML contain the screen size and button layout positions - if you have a differente size screen you can simply edit these two files to move the buttons around - full instructions are included in the XML file
So I have seen the great work that people have been doing here - and I absolutely love the themes from Greatbal - but the overhead from SPB (and having to have it installed) do not seem to justify the actual overhead.
I decided to start writing my own fully customizable fullscreen page - this will be updated as I add more features - and will post the executable for people to send and leave me feedback!
Transparencies are fully handled.

FAQ:
Q. It crashes because of xxxxx
A. First try copying and running the files from system memory as some devices (HTC Touch) have issues resuming from standby with program running from the storage card. If the program still fails - edit the config.XML and select YES for errorreporting - then run the program - when it crashes post the errorreport text file here and I can try and help you.
Q. Why is there nothing on the calendar or music or blah blah page?
A. Because the app isnt finished yet - as clearly stated above! - more is being added
Q. What version of WM do I need?
A. 6.x - it does not work on WM5 or below
Q. How do I install it?
A. You dont! - simply copy all files to a folder on the device and run the EXE - that's it - no install - no uninstall - nothing changed on the device - no registry entries required.
Q. What is the default unlock sequence
A. 1 single guesture - ^ (you can change this on config.xml)
Q. Can I change stuff?
A. Yes - everything! - the landscape.xml and portrait.xml contain all the positions for the icons and layouts for the skin, while config.xml contains details about non-skin related options
Q. What Compact Framework do I need?
A. You need either 2.0 or better still 3.5 - unfortunately some custom rom cookers have not fully incorporated CF into their build and this may cause you problems - not just with my app but anything that uses CF. My only suggestion here is to try an updated (or different) base rom! - it works perfect with all the WWE builds with CF installed - so I know it's the rom
Q. I get a white screen when starting the program
A. This can be caused by two things - either you did not UNZIP all the files into a directory (this will contain the program files and TWO sub directories :- PNG and WAV) or it can be caused by a problem with the custom ROM you are running and due to the cooker not implementing the compact framework correctly - and the only solution to this is to use a different rom (this will affect all programs that try to access these portions of the CF not just mine)

good work thanks

I'm not one to stifle innovation, but i'm curious how this is/will be different from something like RLToday
(both are full screen, and use XML for configuration)
http://rotlaus-software.de/forum/viewtopic.php?id=1171

RLToday:
1. vjtoggletodayiialpha to remove topbar and bottom bar.
2. vjokbutt / mortscript to have X/OK icon we you lanuch application.
3. Mortscript to have Signal, battery, Wifi, Bluetooth, Volume on our new customized topbar.
The program I am using is pure .NET - no mortscript, no vjtoggle required to create full screen
I intend to replace all the original functionality of the device where possible.
The one thing I cant stand is a beautiful today screen and when you press the "messages" button you get the bloody horrible white page with the message display - I intend this to replace the messaging, calendar and contacts sub pages and make them feel a lot nicer to use.
I am using the full API and some imported DLL calls to reference the information on the device directly instead of using scripting programs - and as such as you can see - it's tiny in size and runs very quickly!
I have also already managed to code left and right guestures for page swapping although they are in the code provided - the guestures currently do nothing.

looks VERY promising, will keep an eye on this thread!

this is indeed very promising n will help to reduce the use of multiple programs and plugins

Nice! Sounds like alot alot of work...hope you find somebody to help you ! GL !

Nice work
It looks nice and promising, keep up the good work. I wish I am good at art work.
Hopefully somebody with good art sense will help you. Good luck friend.

Sounds like a cool idea.
1. How did you replace the home screen?
2. iContact has a fairly portable titlebar module you could use... it's in C++ win32 though.

The home screen isnt actually replaced - it's still running behind - the key is to use the API's to adjust the window up and over the title bar and make my app foremost so it takes over.....you can see the start menu still working by pushing your "windows" soft key - the menu will still pop up bottom left - although I need to make the title bar visible again when my application loses focus - something to do.
The main screen is actually just a custom built graphic which is updated periodically - but that has events behind it that detect "zones" on the page for clickable areas - the page is re-drawn in the back buffer and then flipped to the main screen to prevent any flicker - currently the display is set to update every 5 seconds - need to assess battery performance based on update speed.
The advantage is that because the page is built up from "element" small graphics pieces that can be interchanged or replaced totally and also resized to anywhere on screen - the layout is completely changeable!

Oh, in that case, you could make the carrier, battery, signal strength, etc., configurable too!

They already are! - download the program and try - the icons at the top are all png/jpg/gif files in the PNG directory and the size and position of the icons at the top can be configured through the XML file in the application directory
<OperatorTextX>0</OperatorTextX> <X location of operator text
<OperatorTextY>0</OperatorTextY> <Y location of operator text
<OperatorTextSize>7</OperatorTextSize> <operator text size
<SignalX>155</SignalX> <signal strength x pos
<SignalY>0</SignalY> <signal strength y pos
<SignalW>25</SignalW> <signal strength width
<SignalH>10</SignalH> <signal strength height
But still everything that is included up to now - is all within 55K!

Hope you can keep working on this as it is quite promising.

sounds good, a new fullscreen skinnable gui that needs no other apps. i only know two really good ones: mobile shell and pointui. pointui has a batteryproblem and isnt skinnable and mobile shell isnt freeware hard to skin.
But you will have a lot of work man. thanks and good luck.

Ok - am going to leave the rest of status icons for the moment - I have all the API references for Bluetooth, GPRS, Edge HDSPA etc to see if they are active or not and will put them in in due course.
Next I am going to work on the new "send SMS" screen - this is going to be a total replacement for the horrible white screen sender - much more like the diamond SMS screen - but I found that to run really slowly on my Kaiser (under the mobile shell) - so will hopefully be making a much quicker version!
First thing to do is the screen layout - again the size and position of the entry box and the name box and the background will be customizable through the XML - yes - I am making everything move/sizeable lol.
Next will capturing the keyboard input to the boxes and finally using the SMS API to send the mesage and return to the main screen.

Looks promising, I'll be checkin this out the next days.
Keep up the good work!

wow this is amazing...one question will the sms program be a replacement threaded style ap or just to send? If this becomes something like point ui but with complete control that would be awesome. keep up the good work.

I intend a full SMS replacement UI - the SMS sender screen is already done and will be uplaoded shortly - the SMS history will also be completely re-written to be able to be viewed threaded or non threaded - however you want to see it! (hopefully)

thinkin of flash integration?

No plans for flash - but I can play flash moives through the .net framework - although - my aim to make a fast replacement.
Please see the latest version for bringing up the SMS screen - it is INSTANT - makes you wonder what MS is doing with their screen and why it's so slow at loading

[REF][PROJ] udK Syrius R0 WWE Confirmed Known Bugs List [ONLINE]

OK then, the original ROM release thread is getting a bit repetitive so if everyone replies here with their known bugs/problems to the "R0" release we'll be able to have a list of all the known bugs and have a clearer view of what is an actual bug and what's something more user/device related.

Regardless of the bugs, I do enjoy this ROM a lot allready. udK, keep up the good work!

Is this just me or do others get these problems too?
1. I can't setup an email account (hotmail) within the "Mail" section of the TouchFLO.

4. Camera Album and related fuctions not working correctly (stuck on zoom) - We probably all agree on this one but better ask.

I'm not sure what qualifies as a bug but if this isnt one then I will erase my post.

Sorry for english
1. Autofocus does not work.
2. Audiomanager stops work in sleep mode (S2P works perfect in sleep mode on R0)
3. Can not play movie in Photos and Videos tab.
4. Gestures in photos preview does not work at all.
5. Quick GPS stucks at 82% (probably because of new radio. Looks like HTC changes technology of satelite data update. Some where here was that it is only because of bad signature of update.)
6. Wifi problem (cannot turn on/off while using active sync)
7. Can not switch to 3G/2G band in usual way.
Looking forward to hear about r1

Beside what is mentioned by firiel above.
Cannot setiup hotmailn with windows live.
3G (HSPDA) is working fine but GPRS is not working, in the original rom both was wirking fine whatever signal was present. settings are correct.
Voice Dial is missing.

Already reported some bugs in this post:

how many threads do we need for 1 ROM to report bugs! C'mon people use the original R0 thread to report your issues. It gets real crazy for a cook to have to go to multiple threads to see issues.
Hopefully a Mod will remove this thread....

I think its a good idea for this thread to be created, IF the first post is updated regularly so the GREAT Cooker UDK, can just watch 1 post despite 44 pages.
Also people please confirm the issues mentioned so that they can be confirmed as bugs. ForumUser please add only confirmed, by +3 people, issues to first post

you do have a valid point, but let me ask you this. I am sure you see so many new posts being created that it pushes other posts to other pages. In that scenario it might make it hard to keep track or rather easy to lose threads... if its all in one place this isnt as likely to happen..
just food for thought....

Theres about 40 pages in the R0 thread all repeating the same bugs , threads like these are a good idea if used properly and the first post updated

Not yet mentioned in this thread, the END key will only lock device, even if quick list or one of the other options is selected.

also not mentioned that Audio Manager keeps searching and searching and searching,
which might be btw. the issue that it lags sometimes for 2-3 seconds

Thank you all for your input so far. We got quite a list. I have some spare time, so I put them together in the second post. I hope .ForumUser doesn't mind, perhaps he can help with the first post to keep it updated and to have enough space for the possibility of even a longer 'wishlist'

so far things that i've noticed that have been mentioned are:
1 - of course, quickgps
2 - camera problems (auto focus, etc)
3 - Windows live needs to be re-installed to work (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=334621)
4 - Touchpal can't be installed
5 - opera opens with two tabs from the touchflo menu
6 - videos don't play in the touchflo menu
7 - camera album doesn't have the normal finger swiping functions working properly
8 - wifi won't turn on/off when connected through activesync
9 - iGO8 isn't working (have to disable manila to get it to work)
10 - audio manager has no way to increase or decrease volume
11 - there is no program icon or easy access for normal functions such as rotate screen or adjust backlight.
12 - video calls do not work
13- PDM not working
14 - no gps photo (registry edit HKLM\Software\HTC\Camera\P10","Enable",1)
These are just some minor bugs that i've experienced or seen people write about. Personally i'm loving this ROM and most of these bugs aren't really bothering me. I think UDK is the man!!!
Once again, if you guys already see some bugs posted on this thread, DON'T REPOST IT! if not we'll have the same problem of 20+ people reporting THE SAME BUGS!

[list][23.11.09] hd2 shipping rom (1.43) bugs collection

Please help me collecting the bugs from shipped hd2 roms (i sent this thread-link already to htc). I own a german version of the HD2.
Real Bugs that need to be fixed in the next hd2-roms:
- calender wont go past 1.nov.2009 in week-view (monday set as first day of the week) fixed in 1.48
- g-sensor not working in titanium (no titanium landscape switch)
- notification LED doesn`t work
- connection to the internet without a timeout/break (gprs-disconnect timeframe should be larger)
- voice command does not work with a bluetooth headset
- volume of a stereo-bluetooth headset cannot be controlled. The device volume has no influence on the headset.
- storage card is called "storage card" instead of "speicherkarte" in the german rom (might cause problems installing apps)
- view music by recently added
- volume cant be adjusted during a call when in handfree mode (speaker on the back)
- overstearing speaker sound (back-speaker)
- purple center in pictures taken with the hd2-camera (htc is working on a hotfix)
- sporadic volume control failure in Music-tab/streaming-player fixed in 1.48
- audio-booster disabling itself after playing a song
- HTC Messaging takes all SMS's and stops them from being published on the "notification queue" that other programs can listen to
- Sms not being sent/delivered (can't confirm that, works for me)
Minor Flaws that should be fixed in the next hd2-roms:
- 3g-button missing in comm-manager
- geotag (camera) is implemented but deactivated
- taskmanager quickmenu missing
- taskmanager icon missing in list (to assign quick button in sense-homepage)
- navigation panel link missing in startmenu
- taskbar icons (phcanoverbmp.dll etc.) from wm6.1. Should be the rounded edges/G/H/3G from wm6.5.
- facebook contact pictures and birthday should be saved in contact details (you loose the friends fb-pics and birthdays when disabling fb-sync-feature)
- opera zoom-slider and more tabs
personal opinions/wishes:
- save wasted space from the huge clock (smaller letters) and add 8 quick links (4/4) drop down to 16 links (4/4/4/4) (shortcuts on main page)
- ability to choose between background for all tabs or just the main sense-page.
- more contact shortcuts (20 instead 15; 4 icon rows)
- smaller webpage links in sense (3 or 4 icon rows instead just 2)
- playback support of avi-files (divx/xvid)
- solitaire link missing
- when pressing settings in startmenu i want to get to the startmenu-settings rather than manila-settings-page.
- battery percent icon instead of just 4 bars (taskbar)
Many things described can be fixed with regedit or total commander. See here.
You can also use BSB Tweaks to enable some features.

- notification LED doesn`t work
- connection to the internet without a timeout/break
- no way to make an owner information input

- microsoft voice command does not work with a bluetooth headset.

Just looking at your first selection, these are not bugs!
Just because something isn't as you'd want it, doesn't make it a bug. A feature that you want but wasn't advertised as a feature and isn 't a feature is not a bug. Maybe the fact that it doesn't make my coffee is a bug??
Seriously, there are a handful of ACTUAL bugs, let's not go diluting things with this random nonsense.

divided the list (bugs/minor flaws/wishes).
please report back if you can find something else.

The htc sense bug for calendar can be fixed!
Found it on the o2 forums and if you change the layout to week starting on sunday then the problem is fixed. Also this is just a temporary fix also i do hate week starting sunday but it is solved by it!

A lot of these things can be changed using the tips/tweaks here
And a missing feature is NOT a bug. The calender issue is a bug. The Geotag camera not being implemented isn't a bug. It can be activated very easily in the registry.
I suggest you read the above thread, and then amend your post.

I found that I didn't need the Owner Information fix. It is now stored in your Contact card in Contacts. All of my Resco stuff is reading that fine.

Thanks to post issues that can help our cookers to cook a nice ROM for our device in order to be more accurate.

is anybody else experiencing some kind of lagging while playing music now and again?

hi there,
I'm a HD user... Just want to know that how does the HTC messaging work on the HD2?
When ported to HD, the program is very bugy as if you trying to restore about 300 msgs or more, the program will become very irresponsive and will take a long time to load and display the existing msgs everytime you open it up..
With long msg, the text will overlap with the date. Not sure if this is the case on HD2 as well. It could be a bug of the HTC messaging, or it could be that our HD is too slow to run it.. need you HD2 owners to conform that for me.
Thanks!

There's a nice default text selection tool included on the HTC HD2, an HTC Sense feature rather than a Windows Mobile one, which we've video demoed recently. It allows you to tap and hold on a text and bring up an adjustable selection box that you can spread to encompass the desired text.
You can further expand both the functionality and the eye candy of this feature by enabling the magnifier. To do that, edit your registry HKLM\Software\HTC\TextSelection\EnableMagnifier and change its value from 0 to 1. You'll get a nice magnified preview of a portion of the text allowing you to select text more easiliy. Wonder why HTC had that disabled out of the box?
from devs over pocket now...thanx

How about the volume rocker that stops to control volume in Manila Music tab or Youtube every once in a while?
Also, Manila music player crashes on too many people.
And finally, Audio Booster disables itself after each song (or when the phone is locked).

Real Bugs that need to be fixed in the next hd2-roms:
- calender wont go past 1.nov.2009 in week-view (monday set as first day of the week)
- g-sensor not working in titanium (no titanium landscape switch)
- notification LED doesn`t work
- connection to the internet without a timeout/break (gprs-disconnect timeframe should be larger)
- voice command does not work with a bluetooth headset
- volume of a stereo-bluetooth headset cannot be controlled. The device volume has no influence on the headset.
- storage gard is called "storage card" instead of "speicherkarte" in the german rom (might cause problems installing apps)
- view music by recently added
Minor Flaws that should be fixed in the next hd2-roms:
- 3g-button missing in comm-manager
- geotag (camera) is implemented but deactivated
- taskmanager quickmenu missing
- taskmanager icon missing in list (to assign quick button in sense-homepage)
- navigation panel link missing in startmenu
- taskbar icons (phcanoverbmp.dll etc.) from wm6.1. Should be the rounded edges/G/H/3G from wm6.5.
- facebook contact pictures and birthday should be saved in contact details (you loose the friends fb-pics and birthdays when disabling fb-sync-feature)
- opera zoom-slider and more tabs
personal opinions/wishes:
- save wasted space from the huge clock (smaller letters) and add 8 quick links (4/4) drop down to 16 links (4/4/4/4) (shortcuts on main page)
- ability to choose between background for all tabs or just the main sense-page.
- more contact shortcuts (20 instead 15; 4 icon rows)
- smaller webpage links in sense (3 or 4 icon rows instead just 2)
- playback support of avi-files (divx/xvid)
- solitaire link missing
- when pressing settings in startmenu i want to get to the startmenu-settings rather than manila-settings-page.
Many things described can be fixed with regedit or total commander. See here.

Totally agree! I want this future "perfect" rom!

I guess I'm lucky not to have had any music player problems? I've been using my HD2 to play my music in the car and while studying at uni. What type of crashes do people experience?

Bug in sense SMS writer
When reading / replying SMS in sense ui, there's no close button, nor ok button. Need to hit hardware key "home" to get back to "today screen".
HD2, orange FR, 1.43.73.1 (21864).

+1 for sporadic volume control failure in Music-tab/streaming-player (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=584242), and for the Audio Booster disabling itself.

I have some trouble with the HTC keyboard using some textfields in Opera. Sometimes, e.g. saving favorits, i cant type big letters in the titlebar. I tab on the caps-button to enlarge the first letter of the page name. But if i tab the letter on the Keyboard, my HD2 wrote the small one...
I encountered the same problem in some textfields like post replays in some forums. It seems its a problem with the T9 suggestion, but if i change it to ABC, the Bug doesnt disapear.

I found a good option in this version but I don't know if it was in the previous versions or not.
the option is to keep any app you want keep running in background and not be closed even if you cleared the ram memory . :good:
run the application you want to keep running and go to the recent apps by pressing the square button and slide the application you want down side and you will find there is an closed locker icon attached to this application prevent this app from closing when you click on the trash icon to clear the memory. :good: :good:
Note: if you slide the app down side again you will find that the locker icon changed to an open locker icon and now will be closed if you clear the memory.
** this option will be useful for the social and chatting apps to keep running and receive notification all the time (facebook, whatsapp, viber, ....)

LineageOS 16 and maybe 17 ... no basic settings option suggestion for developers

For some time I compared different roms for Redmi 4x. I summarized basic options in the table and sent to the developers.
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet..._q-erkzYRjm2PRzNjwmNyNTPE/edit#gid=1328689442
As:
- there was no interest in errors and there was no effective response as to any corrections
- it is impossible for a single person or a 2-3 person group to createstable rom
- the number of reported errors and thus the possibility of making corrections is strictly dependent on the number of testers, which of course depends on the population rom brands
- a lot of roms have single editions, without any later updates, including we are wasting time testing what is not allowed to work properly
I decided to go back to the most popular LoS rom because:
- is constantly updated
- the system only downloads about 1 GB RAM!
- the installation file is only about 550 MB
- no need to install Gapps
- the system is not overloaded with unnecessary overhead settings and applications
BUT, there is a lack of basic settings / features, maybe they have been forgotten:
- dark background of text messages and call log for dark mode
- camera with 50% cut menu
- it is not possible to add 8 or 9 icons of the desired settings to the top bar, shortcut bar in one line ... the maximum current quantity is only 6 (almost all other roms can personalize the appearance of the bar)
- no built-in number blocking option: not in contacts; reserved; from phone booths: unknown
- no parameters during charging, even current; sometimes fast charging does not activate and we are not aware of it, and tel when we care still charging in standard mode; if there was such information we could disconnect and reconnect the charger which often solves problem.
- options in the gallery: editing, sharing, deleting after viewing the photo could be placed more ergonomically in one place, e.g. under existing in the upper right corner drop-down menu with "three dots" and that same without obscuring the image itself (I think AOSPextended has it)
- default icons: camera; browsers, sound / screen recorders are not clear
- small date and watch with seconds on the upper beam
- list of connections as in older versions of android with a specific date and time, not in the type "3 days ago"
What do you think about it I suspect that the above functionalities are also not present in LoS for other devices, but they would rather be useful. Perhaps some of them will be restored in LoS 17.
I put this case also into reddit LoS group:
https://www.reddit.com/r/LineageOS/comments/g2frm0/lineageos_16_and_maybe_17_no_basic_settings/
