New Dash

Hello, Ive recently purchased a Dash and I'm curious what are the better apps for customizing a smartphone. I own a axim x51v and I've tweaked it how i like... now im interested in improving my new phone...
I've so far seen opera, and coreplayer.
I'm looking for good home screen apps
Thanks,
BvN

flash to wm6.1 whole new home screen for ya. plus rickys has all kinds of stuff on there like fav programs and photo dialer

Hey thanks for reply. I have a US tmo phone without myfave or any extras. I just want to make sure I'm doing this correctly to get ricky's 6.1 running ok.
1. Run SDA applicationunlock from computer
2. place surrealapp on phone and install
3. reset device
4. run uspl.dat file from computer
5. run RUU v23 (the boot loader) from computer
Also, have you ever used CHomeConfig?

Check out the wiki for upgrade information and caveats. There are links there to the instructions from the ROM cookers themselves as well as video links to the process so you can *see* how it works before doing it yourself.

wm 6.1 ricky's v23 no opera is what i have on mine and its awesome, tons of goodies like threaded text, sliding panels, jogger bar, flash lite player, omap clock and much more. Here is a very good link to some great programs and apps.

Some programs i'm running are
vtap
yahoo go 3
google maps
sktools
photo contacts pro
aces texas holdem
pocketnesterplus - nes game player
tgetfile - needed for pocketnesterplus
jeyo personalizer - reorder's first seven in start menu
tcpmp - plays youtube
hope this helps a bit in getting the fun rolling!

Yup, v23 rocks and I really enjoy the nice little apps installed. I just wish smartphone could access network resources like the PPC or Professional Version of WM6.1

same thing, lol

There's a lot of cool apps you can find for it, it all depends on what you like,and what you want your phone to do for you.
I'm running Rickwatt's V24 no Opera, and I ended up adding Opera mini 4.2 afterwars cause I hate PIE and after trying opera, I think its a great browser.
I also have: WPC- wallpaperchanger
File changer- for .cpr and .dll tweaking
Additional Fonts and .cpr for changing the clock's look.
Google Maps
Sktools
Pocket Player 3.7
TCPMP
NRGZ28 Mini weather 1.2
Pocketnester Plus(nes)
PocketSportcenter
Bejeweled 2
Guitar Hero 3
P.Gotham racing

great programs and apps

Thanks so much for the great share. I'm a new dash convert (I bought mine on craigslist for $60 after my other cellphone crapped out) Now I'm having fun tweaking. It's a truly amazing smartphone! Next week - wm 6.1 ricky's v23 no opera...

Must have apps Productivity applications

Guys, let's start this thread
Must have apps
1. RSS- for me Freerange, its a must I've tried all of them but for my cup of tea I love this app, great customizations, internal viewing browser, its sweet !!
2. Weather - this is an easy one NRG's MiniWeather for sure no doubt, it simply the best, Kudos to NRG
3. Instant Messaging - Windows Live Messenger and JiveTalk beta, just love the natural feel of the WLM client and for the other protocols www.beejive.com is great as well, great graphics but its still in beta, I was one of their first customer with Blackberries and it does work like a charm on that platform, so I'm hoping the final Windows Mobile product is as smooth as the Blackberry.
4. Notes - the native notes app that comes on the Samsung Blackjack II, its nice and functional and it syns to Outlook 07 for those that are not on Exchange
5. Outliner - Efficasoft Outliner, its simple, small memory footprint and very reliable
6. Celetask - great Task managager
7. Todos - Oxio's Todo List 6.1, it works like a charm with a fair degree of customizations and highly reliable
8. GPS - Google Maps, Live Search, Garmin Mobile XT (gps app loaded to the miniSD, very sweet)
9. LedAlerts - it handles all the LED notification on my BJII and it also compatible with the Dash and all other smartphones, its assest to my setup
10. Browser - is there really another, in my eyes Opera Mobile 8.65 works like a charm, like it better than Opera Mini
11. Voice Notes - guys, check out the guys from WebIS, check out the app called "Note2Self", this is how it works, hit a key record your message and it will email you the voice notes via activesync to any email, so I have it sent to myself and created a folder and a rule in Exchange 2007 to receive all these notes, its a great "Getting Things Done" addin in my humble opinion, it will also let you save the notes to the memory card as well in orb or wma format, I give this app 100 stars and very cheap.
12. Backup - Spb Backup - simply 100% reliable
13. Passwords - Spb Wallet - very nice interface and customizations
14. Screen Capture by Ilium Software - small footprint and works like a charm
I hope we can share more

15. SkTools - great byte cleaner
16. SmartToolKit - Great vista lookalike taskbar at the bottom
17. Skyfire Beta - The best browser yet
18. KinomaFreePlay - Best Youtube video, I recommend you check it out. It could be downloaded from below under my signature labeled as Smartphone Programs. I recommend this to everyone...
19. PocketNester - NES Emulator Lots of Fun...

Music Player - Pocket Player
Video Player - CorePlayer with YouTube Viewer
TV & Radio - Spb Online
Calendar - Papyrus
Photo Viewer - Resco Photo Viewer
Alarm - pTravelAlarm
Backup - Spb Backup
Task Manager - acbTaskMan hold more info than Celetask
Wi-Fi Finder - WiFoFum2
Volume - SetVolume
Browser - Opera Mini & Mobile
VNC Client - MochaVNC
Notes - Vito Audio Notes

only in england does spb online (tv,radio..) count as productivity software...i gotta go there once i learn the language
hi stylez

Parlingo is also cool

Although its not an app, Screen guards or savers are great as well, so I thought I add mine
www.bestskinsever.com for me they are the best, they are coming up with BJII total body guard in two weeks, they already have a screen for the DASH which I absolutely loved

I just use reQall. Sign up for an account. Call from your mobile. They transcribe and email the results.
You can also use keywords. If you say "Buy milk" it starts a shopping list. You can add things whenever you think about it. Then when you are on your way to the store, you call tell it to send the list as an SMS.
Best of all, it's free.

Nice I just signed up, I'll setup the number as one of MYFAVES and test it out. thanks

Haha that program is awesome... Works like a charm...

1. RSS- Newsbreak - (Illiumsoft) It works the best for me. NO ADS. It does a good job with podcasts as well.
2. Weather - Showaco/Outerdepth or NRG's. See you need a sports ticker it's mandatory. NRG's is so clean but sacrifice is the key.
3. Instant Messaging - Palringo just owns with sending pics/voice messages only in beta too. It's light and quick. I only use AOL as my client cause I'm an old foggie that doesn't need 5 messaging programs. AIM Messenger mobile is now in final and works nice and has a great interface. Little more heavy.
4. Notes - I don't take notes have a photographic memory. Lies
5. Celetask - great Task managager (agreed) plus SKtools to clean up monthly.
6. GPS - Google Maps, Live Search,
Garmin Mobile XT (gps app loaded to the miniSD, very sweet) How do you use Garmin Mobile unless you have a Bluetooth adapter receiver?
9. Alerts - Been using DontForget forever...Thinking of trying a switch to LedAlerts if it removes the blinks unless to inform me of notifications.
10. Browser - Opera Mini for speed. For flash Skyfire, Opera mobile also in there.
11 Backup - Sprite - wouldn't change does the same as SpB
12. Passwords/ETC - Code Wallet Pro
13. Dashwire - your oh **** backup for basic necessities. Contacts, Photo's, Emails, Texts.
14. Pocket Player - best in music so clean and sexy...still can't get podcasts to work who cares.
15. Core Player - Never looked back but still hold on to TCPMP
16. Showaco Pocketsportscenter plugin - gotta have your sports updates.

Oh I forgot about the Showaco Pocketsportscenter plugin this program is amazing... its a mini espn for me lol

Garmin Mobile XT works with windows mobile devices that an internal gps or a bluetooth gps, it goes in an MiniSD card, I have mine loaded on a 4gb card, you basically select the regions you want, its very cool

You can't use toll free numbers as myFaves, so I asked reQall for a direct number. Here it is for your myFaves pleasure.

AEButtonPlus

If you're not heavy on using data and prefer to avoid any fees.
Nodata is the app for you!

I just want a message notifier
All I'm looking for at the moment is a simple mail and sms notifier for the today screen, preferably a transparent one.. ZoomSMS doesn't seem to work, and I have been unable to find anything other than an entire shell or a plugin with loads of other uncustomizable addons.

Titanium plugins (CLauncher & CComm) for WM6.5 Standard

I am porting some Titanium plugins for WM6.5 Standard.
Currently, I have ported the CLauncher & CComm, both of which were originally developed by "chriscsh" and quite good.
You can find out more information about these plugins on their corresponding threads:
* Titanium CLauncher http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=514490
* Titanium CComm http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=513747
The plugins require Mortscript, which is also included below.
I have only tested and verified the plugins using the PD Titanium panels on the EnergyROM. However, I believe they should work on the 3vo ROM as well. These plugins use the ATPluginInstaller, which provides a robust installation and limits compatibility issue with other panels.
Here are some screenshots:
(CLauncher showing two applications, Facebook & Tiny Twitter)
(CComm showing the two pages, Setup & Phone connection)
(Steps for adding an application to the CLauncher panel, in this case, Opera Mini)

is there anywhere we can add another panel? one for apps another for games if possible?

Well.... not exactly. The CLauncher is a single panel.
The idea here is to be able to access and launch applications that are used very frequently (maximum of 9). It really does not matter if they are games, utilities, online applications, native applications.
The feature that you ask for would need to be implemented in a different plugin.

thats what im saying like an a cab that will let us another panel like clauncher

This two are working great, the only one i miss is the contact panel,

i dont have much experience with this type of mods, and im getting an atplugin error, so if anyone could help i would really appreciate.

can someone help me set this up no idea how

yeah working fine in portrait mode too!!! (some fix to the cpr but nothing impmossible!!)
really good job!
now we need a way to add more than one launcher... it could be great and usefull!!

O.k once you install the .cabs I had to go to Chome Config. and "show" both panels. You can the go back to you home screen and setup the CComm panel. As for as the CLauncher panel goes manual input works best; expecialy if your apps are located on your storage card, i.e \Storage Card\Program Files\Facebook\facebook.exe. Then you name it, and choose a icon. Ihave Chome Config. Icon-pak installed and I get mine form there. Hope this helps. I would love to have Chome Config work fully on WM6.5 though.

Ok, I am scratching my head just a little here. I have this set up and it is working well. I am able to launch a couple of programs. Of course I set those app's up using the "Choose from list" method. Now....here is the problem. I am trying to add the Opera Mini app using the manual method referred to in your 3th picture, but my Branded T-Mobile Dash does not seem to have a forward slash "\", only a backward slash "/". Am I blind, or just being a n00b? I have looked the keyboard over and over again, and honestly, I don't think it has it. Help please.

Ah. I see said the blind man. Heck, I didn't even know that was what that button is for. Guess it would have helped if I read my owners manual, lol. I was so used to texting on my previous phone, Motorola RAZR. Like I said before, I am new to the smartphone/full keyboard thing.
Thanx man. I would have taken forever figuring that out.

To get the "\" you must press the camera/sym key that is to the right of the space bar. There you can find backslash.

Now i feel like i wasted 30 minutes of my time or that i'm not as lazy as some people who use roms.... when i installed the 3vo rom series i spent the first 30 mintues after initial setup editing one of my chome panels so i could have a programs panel with facebook, twitter, oz messenger, youtube, and opera mini. the made a second panel for my comm settings, reboot, and free memory. lol. i guess when the final version is released i'll just use your ports instead of wasting my time. lol

What I did is export the registry entries for my custom panels, so when I reflash just import those entries and I'm ready to go, just export the following entries
HKLM\Security\CHome\DefaultSettings\""Your panel name"
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\CHome\""Your panel name"
The export is on My documents so after you export copy it to your SD card
Hope this help and save some time next time

Yahoo messenger exported to WinMo 6.5?

Hi Guys,
I'm just a noob as you can probably see from my number of posts on this forum.
Just bought my HD2 (Virgin Mobile) a couple of months ago, and am following the forum and website every single day for new things to learn/install etc.
As i am a big Yahoo Messenger user, i have tried different 3rd party software e.g. Palringo, Nimbuzz etc for yahoo chatting but is not really compared to the real thing and by that i mean (..and please don't shoot me) the iphone version.
I bought the HD2 for the simple reason that i hate Apple, don't like them one bit but some apps like Yahoo messenger are cool .
I like the things like shake to buzz someone or the interface of the app or sending files feature etc.
So now i am urging/challenging all the great devs in this community, can someone port the Iphone version of Yahoo Messenger app to WM or design one from scratch but with all the features that it has?
Thanks in advance

Well, i'm pretty sure that application will coming soon with the same user interface as like on iphone.

i hope i can help you
try out the oz messenger, search the forum as oz messenger, hope so that some of the messenger version matches HD2. as far as I remember theres a lot of variation , combination and versions. try until you find the most suitable one for HD2 ..
best of luck

Thanks. Apparently this uses your SMS and not your internet connection. I have around 3000 inclusive text and unlimited, well around 1GB, internet plan so i would've liked to use my internet connection.
I think i just need to wait until a wm version same as the iphone will pop up, but i would still never buy an Iphone

the oz messenger uses date not text service. I use it everyday. It has yahoo, AOL, and hotmail (I think). this program supports auto start on windows start up, Background sounds and Alerts. It supportsBuzz, smilies, and auto sawing of Conversations. I used it with the touch (QVGA), Touch Pro (VGA), & Touch Pro2 (WVGA). seems to work on all resolutions. It should work on Data Connection & Wifi.
let me know how you like it...
Good Luck
