First of all, I'm really sorry to double post, I've posted this in Xperia section, but I really really need Blackstone users to help me out, thanks in advance.
Hi, I'm a student in Queensland University of Technology at Australia. I'm developing a Sudoku game for Windows Mobile 6 Professional with WVGA resolution, I have a SE Xperia X1 but I need your help!!!
This is my second attempt in developing Windows Mobile application, last time it was a big failure, but this time I've put a lot of effort in this application in order to make it very graphical appealing, use-able, and powerful, y'know this is very hard in WinMo platform, either it will crash or it will take too much memory/processes to run it.
I've used smallest amount of custom build controls to make this happen in qSudoku, I want to make it user friendly, finger friendly, apply the concept of "a screen full of content", and graphically appealing. So far I've only tested it myself and I want to know what do you guys think
Please go to Faculty Of Geek for more information about this application (or me )
Email ([email protected]) to me if you want to provide feedback or just anything
(Download links at the bottom)
Current features:
Four levels to choose from (easy, medium, hard, insane!).
Load and save.
Multiple numbers in one square.
Clear all numbers in one square at once.
Check numbers in all square. (that's where the red 'x' appears )
Hint
Show solution
Check answer (the 'All Done!' button)
It's full screen
In this version.....
Only 6 puzzles available.
No settings available.
New Game and Load Game buttons will take few seconds to respond (which is obviously not good).
Will expire on 15 May, 2009
Has no icon and sounds :-(
In future versions.....
Will improve memory management
Will provide option to turn off full screen
Will make the application more responsive
Will support more screen resolution
Will support non-touch screen device
Will make the hint not so 'obvious' (you'll know why once you play it
Downloads:
WCGA device with .NET Compact Framework 2.0
WVGA device with .NET Compact Framework 3.5
Here's some screenshot:

Looking all good but wrong section. This should be posted in the "Development and Hacking" section

Thanks for the info, I'll post one there, hope it's won't get deleted as I kept posting the same thing.

One idea, D-pad from Toshiba TG01

This morning I realised one great thing, porting Toshiba TG01 D-pad software to Blackstone Can somebody explane me is it possible or not ?

Only time and patience will tell us.

It shouldnt be too hard, with the 2 devices having similar resolutions, but i cant help but think this is of limited use. How are you supposed to select something under the dpad?

Hmm, I had no idea Maybe it have bring to front/back options

i think you can hide the pad just like any other virtual keyboard.
of course, you use the pad when you need d-pad functions(games etc) and not when you need to select something on the screen(in that case you don't need a d-pad, no?).

They stole my idea!
Hey!
I was thinking about this idea few months ago while testing the Touch HD.
I love the HD but sometimes you just need to use a D-Pad, and with the HD you must open the keyboard for that.
Of course, opening the keyboard hides half of the screen so it is not the best idea.
I wanted to develop a virtual D-Pad, one that pops up as a result of some kind of a hardware button.
My only problem was to hack down those arrows commands. I know how to develop all the rest (sticky floating panel).
If someone could help with with how to programically control the arrows - I will be able to create the user interface for the virtual D-Pad.
(Or maybe someone will just port the Toshiba one and that's all... )

The best option would be to try to extract the Dpad Toshiba software from the original TG01 Rom. This shall be easy for the Rom chefs.
I think this application would be really useful.
Update:
I've found that the virtual D-Pad application called Flexipad. great video on http://www.theunwired.net/?item=videoview-toshiba-tg01-windows-phone-software-hands-on
I Hope that someone can extract the application from the ROM of the TG01 as it would be awsome on the Blackstone.

D-Pad TG01
The D-Pad works different from the standard Input Methods.
You can move it all over the screen as you like and it´s Semi-transparent, so that you can even see what´s under it. And you can switch between D-Pad Mode and Touchpad inkl. Mouse-Pointer...
Pretty Nice actually...

Finally there is a ROM update for the TG01 where some chefs can try to extract the application.

any news on this

+vote for it!

I cant think of any reason why this should not be possible. Hope one of you WMpro's can get this working on the HD.

bumping this post

I tried searching a tool to extract applications from a ROM.
Do you know any tutorial?

extract files
something from here can help you http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?auto_redirect=1&pagename=TitleSearch&s=extract

Dump of the Flexipad from TG01
Thanks to arag0n85, the attached dump of the Flexipad.
I coudln't make it run, but maybe someone with better skills may do it.

[ Idea ] TF3D Notes Page

One app I keep using a lot of the time is the notes application.
Just to quickly jot something down, or to look up something I wrote earlier.
It would be great if there were a new tab integrated into Touchflo (or Sense, whatever)
I know how to do a bit of programming of my own, but no idea how to create something which would add a new tab to another program such as TF3D.
But yeh, I'm just putting the idea out there.
Please comment if you like this idea.
I hope someone out there will find the time to attempt making this, as it would be a great addition for Touchflo.
Heres a little mockup I made:
(sorry for the poor graphics)

"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Select notes along the slider on the right.
To make a new note, slide to the top one (which is blank)
start drawing on it.
Press the tick button, bottom right to save
To delete, slide to the note you want to delete, then click the delete
button, bottom right.

Thanks Dude, This is totally awesome imho....
very nice idea..
I would also add the functionality of reminder...
Sometimes I need to remember something that Ill quickly note but then even forget to look at it...
so very good idea if reminder was added too...
Are there any DEVs feeling the same?

Thats a great idea.

I agree. That would be a nice thing to have

sorry to go off topic, but where did you get your tray skin for 6.5.1?

Thanks for those who've replied, I really hope a dev actually does something like this.
The skin is the one that came with the ROM im using.
Cant remember what the ROMs called though.

Won't be possible sorry.
As far as I understand it, the code for manilla isn't released by HTC, so attempting to add a tab would be impossible?

You sure its not possible?
A new tab has been made before you know :/
Check this out

If you could find a notes today plugin program you could use the manila today tab program you referenced.

That is not a "tab" persay. It displays the today screen and therefor you can show a today plugin, but not add any specific manilla features.

Help guys I really would like these two things if possible??

I am using build 28008.5.5.0 benko rom ultra lite
I'm wanting to have these two things added to my phone is this is possible?

The first screenshot is a mock-up as far as I know...
There is a theory that it will soon support music play from your lockscreen.
But I could be wrong, if you give a link to that shadowline ROM I can do some research because I would like to have it too!
Cheers,

i heard it was a real project and the was actually written but never implemented... hope they will cause that would be sweeeet
in the meantime you could use S2U2 coupled with S2P that will give you a very similar things more in a iPhone style though

Okay, and if there's anything I don't want on my phone, then it's iphone stuff.
No but those are all third party programs, it would begreat to have it implemented in WM.

I don't like the iPhone neither... still when something is good I don't care where it comes from
S2U2 provides many very good things (that iPhone don't have actually)
- SMS/MMS/EMAIL/MIST CALLS/TASK/APPOINTMENT/ALARM Display and dismiss without unlocking
- 1+ appointments display
- Time and real battery meter (always or when charging)
- weather forecast
- Fullscreen caller ID
- Slide to answer (or not)
- blank screen/lock on talk
- integration/actions on MP3 player S2P without unlock
- system/incall volume control
and that just the basic features...
It is honestly a great tool !!!
Otherwise regarding integrated in WM... I don't know what the MS devs are doing but they better get their fingers out of where they shouldn't be
People are still very cold about getting WM Phones... they even rather by a LG or a Sam-****-sung

Ill have a look and try that program but as some one lse said I don't want my diamond to be abit like the iphone thats why I got it because it#s nothing like it

[REQ] Sense To Do (tasks) list manager

Hy all.
I and probably meni other users are not happy abaut task manager build in Windows Mobile. It's way to hidden!
Task list shoud be visible from home screen. This is the only way I can see what I have to do in comming days.
Sou I made user interface for this app.
It looks like this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
If enyone has the time and knolage, this could be big thing

wow...amazing work....have u made it?

I just put some Sense graphic's together and this came out.
Now we need some developer's to make the hard part, and that is modifying the Sens files.
I'm hoping Co0kieMonster could taka a look at this.

BUMP....Great idea!!!

looks awesome. I wonder how much of this is covered by ptasks.
A manila tab would definetly be awesome but not neccessary for me

I tried ptasks... and gave up, it was too slow for regular uses..

...maybe you give "mvcal" a try (www.portablepim.de)
hence the website is in german, the software will be english after installation. If you prefer german, you can switch to it in options->languages)
or you download directly from here
It cannot only manage the appointment, it also handles the tasks in a fingerfriendly manner and combines it with appointments.

Very interesting, this is the function that lacks to sense. it would be nice to share it ou explain how to made it.
thanks

bump!!! I like this!!
Marty

Really interested too.

Would love to have something like this.

Its an amazin idea..it mus be not so hard for the great Developers here on Xda..
Plz sum1 mak this possible..after making the Call History tabs this one is next!

bump bump bump

Look at here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=659089
Not exactly a new tab, however for sure tasks integrated in Sense

yep, i'm using AHT already, it works..
the thread starters "design" just have more eyecandy... i also looking forward to the day, when a friendly dev will make one

Hi digibum,
ask meltwater. He has done FB-Tab and is busy with RSS-Tab. I think he
has found a very good mechanisme to do things like that....

Yep this is just the kind of thing which could be done using the same methods I've used. The whole concept is to remove the difficult sense side and provide a simple way to populate a tab.
If a developer is interested in doing the TodoUtil program (.net side) I can probably provide a shell of the Sense RSSTab which by design is supposed to be generic enough to be populated with any kind of list data.
There are still features I've not yet built into the Sense tab (long press selection, left-hand icon selection, notifications), but as I develop the RSSTab the idea is I can expand what it is able to do.
Even as it currently stands, I don't think there is much that would need to change to get a simple To-Do tab.
