New panels? - XPERIA X1 Themes and Apps

just randomly checked the sony website, and there are two new panels...
Test CNN panel B10
and
Test Gokivo Navigation B10
http://www.sonyericsson.com/fun/wxh...ntentItemId=36424;ts=1247690304226;phoneId=-1
Don't know how long they've been up, so apologies if this has been posted already (i did quick search before posting and found nothing)
The Test CNN panel has a funky new 'roladex' style front page (3D), and it's generally smoother
The Gokivo is pretty slow to search for places considering I was on Wi-Fi connection, looks like a pretty good panel though, only had a quick look in the menu, and it's got traffic updates too. It's kinda like a cross between TomTom and Googlemaps. Didn't have time to test it, but here's the website link:
http://www.gokivo.com/
So maybe SE haven't quite given up on the xperia just yet....?

they have been out for quite some time, and you know what the good thing about WinMo is: even if developers stop making official stuff, XDA people still make apps that will keep ur phone hip and great for another 5 years

already gone
Found the panels also during a random check and immedatly download the Gokivo panel to try out.
too bad they already disappeared from the SE site. probalby not quite finished yet
I quickly tried Gokivo on my Xperia. it looks good but its very slow in searching and updating maps.
like mentioned in previous post it's in between TomTom and google maps but needs to be a lot faster to be useable.
I hope it gets back on their site soon!

Any chance you can share it? I went to the SE site and thought they might have hidden it from me because I'm not in Nth America or Europe - but now I see it was actually pulled.

well I was thinking.. since they have 2 more xperia phones coming out.. if the panel system isn't being ditched, then perhaps some would be reversely compatible?
just a thought.

Anybody download the cab and care to share the gokivo panel?

@ steve and augie, here's the gokivo cab

I had the Mytopia panel but deleted it.
You get two games after registering, Texas Hold'em poker and something else.
I loved the poker game but after something like ten games you get locked out and it requires a monthly subscription.

New front page on main site !!!

The xda-developers.com main site has a new front page. It's still very much a work in progress, and it will change significantly still over the next few days and weeks.
But please have a look and say whether you like it.
The articles currently available through the front age will find their way into the forum over the next week as well, and they'll get their own small box on the front page.
If you can, please help turn the XDA-developer news service succeed. With so much going on, I feel it's important we have some kind of editorial summary in order not to drive people nuts.
everything is fine except........ wheres the links to the pages like connectors ect...
WOW new front page, looks good too!
But for some reason I'm unable to logon with Pocket IE.
FYI the below error is whats being reported:
Template->make_filename(): Error - file does not exit
No Pocket IE what am I going to now!

Ehm, whoops, I forgot to say currently it only works with the XDAdevelopers theme... Same goes for the encyclopedia. I'll fix that soon.
:?:
I can get to the forums but where did the rest of xdadevelopers go? The links to the tools, tutorials, pictures, etc... Seems I can't find the links to these areas off of the new home page...
Always get "Template->make_filename(): Error - file does not exist".
Did some testing, found out that it is related to being logged in.
If I log out, the site opens normal.
When I log in again on the site, I get this error again.
Tested with IE 6.0 and Mozilla 1.4.1

You had selected subSilver as your style, and as mentioned above, that wasn't done yet.
The ood news is that it now works for you. The bad news is that I deleted subSilver. See my other message... Sorry...

OK, but loved the sub-silver more then the yellow. Think it's to flashy.
Thank god it's just yellow and not orange :lol:
Looks good although I don't usually go on the front page since I bookmarked the forums for my devices.

There is a solution to everything.. Or a work around too.. Answering q & a section to get 10 posts isn't that hard... It only takes at max an hour to get to 10 posts legally...

Home Screen Snapshots

I want to see what other peoples home screens look like, how do I take a screenshot of mine? Is there an application for that somewhere. I am working on compiling information for my website so I can easily get to it all. If people can point me to the best reference areas I would appreciate it.
Thanks
Please share your home screen with me
I use MagicSS.
Home screen simple and clean like I like it:

What do I need to do to get my clock large like your second picture.
These are a few variations I've used.
I'd love to see everyons home screens as well.. I have attached a program that takes them for all the people out there not knowing how to do it
Mine are also fairly simple & maybe a bit dark?
Won't show mine. Ohhh well
Here is my home screen, very simple and effective
Here is my Home Screen
Pretty basic, home plug, and the HTC Customizer, plus a wm6 theme I found online. My ode to the Florida Gators.
Let me know what you think......
I would like to see more too.
And thanks for the Screen capture program works like a charm.
HEre is mine
Let me know what you think. Its my ode to the Florida Gators. I use the standard HTC home plug and home customizer...

i would like to know that too. also, could you please list the used apps on your today screen
No problem, I have Spb PocketPlus installed with the bare minimum components for the today screen plug-in. Then on my first "Home" Page I have unlocked HTC Home (you have to do this to place it on a tabbed page of Spb) then under it is the meters that come with PocketPlus. Then on the next page I have rlToday with a skin I made and will attach to this post for any that would like to use it. Then the next tab is SBSH PocketWeather 2.0.5 that I slightly modified from the PhatPhinger skin you can find one there site. Then the next page is just a app launcher page that zips me to any of the apps that I use a lot. I have sense added a 5th page that has Windows Live and Windows Live Search plug-ins on it. The good thing is that even with all this loaded and running CRC's v12r6 6.1 ROM, I still have 42.58M Storage and 22.46M Program mem left. And I have a lot of other stuff installed as well.
Thanks for asking about my screens and if I can be of any other help just let me know.
thanks a lot!
one more question: how do you unlock HTC Home? i apologize if it's a stupid question, but i really don't know...
There is a CAB file on this forum somewhere that is HTC Home Customizer that lets you unlock it.

Point UI Home 2 Point Sense Suite

I hope everyone has been keeping up with the Point UI Home 2 development. These guys are coming up with some pretty creative stuff. The newest addition has been Point Sense Suite, a replication of the Point Sense UI found on the HTC Hero.
Have a look!

Thanks for posting this it looks great.
Compelling indeed.
Unfortunately the download is restricted.
I would like to test this app.
I didn't see any register information, any idea how we can access it? Legally of course!
Just download app and register with PointUI community to access all downloads. It's free to register, it's an online community... like XDA, sorta.
i saw the video but what realy turned me of was that you have to click the arros to move something???jeees..whats the use of a nice touch screen then..
Looks good but yeah youre right about the arrows thing
my god its realy different from the last point ui , it has much less bugs and i doesn't show conflict with spb3 panel (korean) you can adjust it any shape you like the new applets are perfectly designed its very smoth and doesn't have lag point sence and next gen add on are impressive the only bad things about it's costy and also like the previous point ui it needs to be out of panel modes to apply changes (themes , new software installed on it) oh by the way it takes about 10-12 sec for me to load it from the panels (with all the changes it was less than 6 but point sence add on theme makes it double) but for me it was worth it (sorry for my bad english )
nice wish someone can cook a rom with that interface woot woot!
Yes, I regretted purchasing the software ($20) but after this showed itself I began to feel a little bit more optimistic!
where can i download it? i just registered the pointui community but i cannot find any download link :|
EDIT: sorry i founded it out it's in the thread in this link -> http://community.pointui.com/topic/suiteto-come-pointsense-suite
EDIT AGAIN: now i have another problem i install the panel, the i install the point.sense.suite and the point.sense.home.screen cabs, i go into the panel, menu, customize, change theme and i select "pont sense" then i have a message wich tells me to close the panel and re-open it. after i do that the only thing i have is the default pointui home theme! what can i do? :S
Had the same problem!!
After you changed the theme, you'll have add the Pointui home applet..
you can do this by pressing the small icon next to the time and date in the upper right corner
thanx i got it
anyway has someone any kind of news on the release of the 2.0 version of this theme? thanks

i would appreciate feedback and feature-requests.
Your last picture posted here has a grammatical error - 'has been', not 'has be'.
Tried this app. Very smooth.. in fact, a bit too sensitive.. When i scrolled, I keep opened links accidentally.
A ligther background or something more 'relax' would be nice I think. This is a bit too 'dark' to my liking.
hey bro, i tried looking hard, couldnt find the gramatical error.... i might be going blind
as for the over sensitivity, rest assured i would be passing the feedback to obelix, the creator of the slider control; which is used in this app. I have to give him credit for making this awesome control that cuts the development by almost half when designing the UI portion
Would take that as a feature request and put it into my tast list for the next few releases
once again thanks for not only using the app, but providing feedback for it too. There is no point in people just using app without telling us, the developers, what they really want to see. Its after all you the users who end up using it on a daily basis. So thank you!
on a side note, got a nice email from microsoft this morning
Hi
Just wonder - would you consider making this reads the other Singapore e-news intead of just ST? While it's nice to have one app for one news site, I really don't like the idea of filling my screen with few icons for different newspaper.
Just a thought. Of cos', it would have to be a different names then. Ha..
But this programme so far running very smoothly and scrolling is good too. Well done!
hmm, it would increase the complexity of the app, introducing the possibilities of having more bugs. I would avoid that.
moreover i have done up the CNA app as well as the backend of Today app as well... just a matter of time before they become general release items as well
http://www.mobinauts.com/topic/110817-local-app-channel-news-asia/
It seems very cool...but I would like to have this for other newspaper...
the straits time with Windows Phone 7 theme. Nice touch
Definitely gonna try this out. Great development.
looks great! will try it out now
sw33t
This is great, though wishing there are others like CNA or Newpaper
Also I'm getting this error on my HD2 once in a while after I quit or while using the app (can't take a screenshot for some odd reason)...but other than that, it's working fine. And I notice a 2 second lag when I scroll it way way up or down (till the icons are gone) before they appear again but meh, I could still live with it
Code:
STmobile.exe
ObjectDisposedException
at
System.Windows.Forms.Control.InvokeHelper(Delegate method, Boolean fSynchronous, Object[] rgobjArgs)
at
STmobile.settingsFile.updateSyncState()

thanks for the bug report. i will fix this before the next release.
as for the CNA app, already done it. a few selected users are now testing it... would be available soon: http://www.mobinauts.com/topic/110817-local-app-channel-news-asia
here is another app i did initially: 4D and Toto http://spoolsmobile.appslah.com/
initally planned to do TNP as well, but i soon found out that TNP is slightly harder and they lack online content.
are there any alternatives for things like Australian or UK news? it looks amazing!

[GAME] Teeter

Everyone loves Teeter right? I'm sure there'll be lots of shoddy ports for WP7 on launch, so I decided to do it right and first
Obviously, I'm pretty sure the name is trademarked, so will have to be changed before release...
Here's some screenshots of my progress so far :

Engine
(Cant post images or real links as I'm a new user )
I'm looking for designers to come up with a possible alternate style, to diferentiate from the original teeter slightly. Maybe themed worlds?
I'm open to ideas
I edited your post to add images

I wrote an article about this, which should give you some support for your app and maybe a few people who will be willing to help with designs...
Will come out at 3 pm EST today.
thats great news Guess that gives me more motivation to finish it then
And how about a real Metro UI skin? I guess it will look great!
A metro UI skin is a great idea, just not sure about how to pull it off well, will give it a try though

Make everything a blue block? I joke, of course Very nice work, looking forward to see how this comes along, as this is by far my favorite Windows Mobile game.
Nice job, OP! I wouldn't be surprised if HTC have already made a port, but this is still very cool.
My only comment is the 3D view looks a bit strange. There is no real depth, just the 2D Window rotating in 3D space. Look on youtube for "labyrinth 3D".
Keep up the great work!

I forgot to mention, that view is just for the emulator, as I cant really pick up my monitor and tilt it around
As soon as I get a real device to test on, I'll move everything over to the real G-Sensor, and lose the pseudo 3d kinda thing
ALLTHOUGH
I could easily make the 3D view better and have this as an alternate to using the G-Sensor, perhaps as an option from the menu? All input is helpful at this stage
Also, anyone who wants to follow my dev work, my twitter is @lordadamwalker.
Not much stuff about this project yet, but I only started yesterday morning, so It'll be there. Best way to keep updated
I would like a natural Port of the Game most.
Please add a Missionselector after one managed the final level.
If you make a Metro SKin please make it alternative, some people dont like it all the time.
Also I think Stability and low latenzity is more importent the difficult View, you should set your priorities according to that.
looking fwd to see how this game turns out...

A direct port is where I'm starting certainly, any extra features I can add when I finish the engine completely.
There will be a level selector for completed levels.
And there will definitely be a choice of skin to suit all tastes
Performance and reliability are my key focus, so rest assured the engine will be well tested and tuned
Not one to double post, but I now have access to a Windows Phone 7 device, so I should be able to make some real progress. Updates coming very soon
well?
Where is the port?
You might have better luck finding the OP on twitter. He hasn't logged into XDA since May last year.
