movie back grounds - Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General

Anywhere to do one? I have a friend that wants to try it not sure why talk about sucking your battery life..

what are you asking for ? your post makes no sence at all . Movie back ground ? Anywhere to do one ? not sure why talk about sucking your battery life ?
I like drugs too.... but id give it a rest for a bit mate.

well I said in plain english a friend wants to use a movie as a background instead of a still picture is their anyway to do this? basically what I said. Maybe I shoudl speak British english then no one would understand me

Please be nice (it's in the forum rules)! There's no room for racism here (or anywhere in today's world).
Besides, I concur that your initial post was difficult to understand. And your 2nd post wasn't much better either. Punctuation, grammer, and sound sentence structures would have helped.
Anyway, regarding your question, I assume you are asking for an animated background wallpaper? It's not possible with TF3D. The animation would have to be a GIF file or something. But once converted to a manila file, it'll be a still image.
Not sure if it's possible for an animated wallpaper on regular Today screen though. Perhaps someone else can jump in on it?
Btw, I don't really think this is a good idea. It'll probably negatively affect performance and battery life.

haha, your post is far from plain English mate

drawflex, you really shouldn't be so mean. Remember that English isn't the first language of many posters and as such there are lapses in coherence at times. Yes, the first post was confusing, in part due to a lack of punctuation, but your reply was just rude. We don't know where ajac is from so maybe English isn't his first language, maybe he (or she) was in a rush and wrote a run on sentence without reviewing it. We don't know and as such should not jump to conclusions. No need to flame.

I recall that S2U2 supports animated wallpapers. But it's not something I use because of high battery and resource usage. If you google "animated wallpaper windows mobile", you will find some other apps as well.
And seriously, please use punctuation. It sounds like your English-level is alright but you are deliberately typing with zero regards for the rules of the language..

Resco's Photo Viewer came with a screen capture.
You could capture some stills of a movie or show with this (or similar app) and use the files to build an animated .gif.
It would not be as much of a resource hog as a movie clip but it will still suck the life from your battery faster than a static page.

Battery Gauge CAB

There is a little utility available here that I think is suberb - it's a little battery gauge that runs across the top of the screen (see the screenshot) but noone as far as I could find has ever created a cab for it.
Well, here it is It's a brilliant little app - like batti but more colourful ;-)
The cab will install the app in program files and create a shortcut in the startup folder to run it on startup. I've had absolutely no problem with this but as always, make your own backup first !
It is possible to change various things like the colours, size etc and also to hide portions to make it go behind buttons etc. in wisbar skins
I must stress that I did not write this app and take no credit for it - that belongs entirely to ins0mniaque for producing a brill little app
I just thought everyone else should know about it
Smiffy.
Does this have the same problem of replicating itself every time the application is launched? Seems like that was an issue in the original thread.
Not bad work! But it is pleasant to me more!))

Will any of these programs accurately measure the life of the battery?
Shogunmark and Faira were talking about this issue (some time ago) where the battery would only decrease by 10%, not 1% like on the wizards.

Why would you keep launching the application? Isn't once enough?
I've read the thread and that only occured because someone was messing with the settings.
As for the apps posted by juvs - they seem a bit..."flat" to me - the one i cabbed looks nice and 3d on mine (as much as a 3-pixel-high app can, anyway ) and I don't like the memory gauge on the bottom of the taskbar - that's intrusive if you ask me.
Now p*** off and get your own thread
Smiffy.
I wish there was a way to change the color of the bar. I don't like that fruity rainbow color. It looks bad IMO.
I've been using the O2 battery meter for now. It matches the color of the theme and doesn't stand out like a rainbow does:
(My battery is at 100% now, but when it goes down the bar reduces in size and leaves gray behind.)

Thanks for posting it (and nicking my sig LOL )
Mark.
If it's yours, you must use it on another board - 4winmobile perhaps? I didn't remember seeing anyone on here with it when I "adopted" it
Besides, it's so fitting
Smiffy
Apology accepted
Yeah, it is fitting - it's a good reminder to n00bs to "engage brain before opening mouth" Sadly, that doesn't happen often enough.....
You're right, I do use it elsewhere - MoDaCo, 4WM "and many, many more"
I don't mind you "adopting" it - it's reassuring to see it being used by someone who understands its' meaning!
Cheers,

@geraldo3: This is a nice attempt, but IMO, it really doesn't talk about WM6. It talks about other apps that can be installed on any WMx OS. It doesn't bring up many of the differences between WM5 and 6, and while it talks about how powerful the OS is, I find you're really not using any of the native apps that it includes (no problem, neither am I), so how "powerful" is THAT?
When you named your device "dopey" (a common synonym for "stupid"), I thought you were going to be detailing how the changes between WM5 and WM6 are only minor ... no real modifications to the OS programs, outside of some very minor aesthetics. No enhancement of the calendar, contacts, pie, task management, basic ui, media player, etc. Many of the "bugs" that were in WM5 still exist in WM6. But your article is mostly complimentary, instead. Left me a bit puzzled.
Yes, IMO, there are many reasons to call WM6 "dopey". The only things I really find are some slight speed improvements, and few UI changes (that some people like and some hate), and, depending on the ROM, a bit more stability. It's the ROM cookers here that have made the OS CONSIDERABLY faster, and have given us back some storage and program space, to boot. IMO, WM6 really should have been called WM5.1.
On an editorial side, you've written pretty well, but you do need to check some of your grammar, sentence structure, etc, if professional writing is your goal. If not, don't worry about it ... you have gotten your points across well enough. One thing you might consider (if you haven't already), is removal of the personal details in your screen shots. The Internet can be a nasty place at times, and you need to be careful (but maybe you made sure all the data shown is false).
Anyway, that's it for my comments. Thanks for sharing!

Good for a Blogger. I would say battery drain comes from SPB and the Radio you are using as you made it sound like wm 6 is the problem.

Images and Video folders + streaming media

Good evening all of yours!
After many read threads, i make up my mind and start this new one cos i don t find find any good solution...
Is it possible via registry or an applicationto specify in the HTC launcher a particular folder for images and videos? I would like to open all the images and videos i record on storage card.
Then i found already things about the problem but no solutions really about the way to configure streaming media to open onlines videos like youtube and so on...
I had this configuration once after flashing rom and then i flashed again and i don t have it anymore!!
Thks for any answer!!!

Firstly the second post from you is not a way to get attention, this is a forum and expecting an instant response is extremely arrogant.. please let people have a chance to see what your request is before coming back and wasting spacing on questioning why you were not answered. secondly i would hope that with your arrogance may come the miniscule amount of intelligence it takes to do a search.
So for the first part of your question
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows CE Services]
"FileSyncPath"="\\Storage Card\\My Documents"
now all your images and videos will save to the storage card and will by default open from there. From here you should be able to figure out where you need to go in registry to tweak the default file locations.
AS for streaming I have no idea but I am sure that the internet connection you obviously have will yield a result thru some search engine...just like the 30 seconds I took out of my life to get the above result which you should have been doing yourself.
Hi Davidf!
Does your member status give you a bigger a.s than the other ones? cause my arrogance don t even deserve a good evening from you!!!!
I replied to my own post about 5 hours after because i m looking for a solution to this little problem since a while, and yes, was impatient to have a solution!
Thank you for your answer to my first question but you see, my post is not so useless as you are not even able to find a solution to the second one!!!!
And what do you reply to the new ones who keeps asking about the stuck with the bootloader after 1% doawnloaded??? do you shoot them up like you did to me??!!!!
Honestly i don t know who is the most arrogant beetwen us!! So i hoppe that you wont be bothered yourself one day with a little or big problem because if everyone starts to answer like you did, you wille be stucked a long time...
By the way, have a good night and take care
***Sorry for all the other persons who will read this but i think that there is perhaps a more gentle way to answer even if my questions were stupid!!!!***

How to turn off button enlargement

Sorry don't know how to call it, but I have installed a newer schaps firmware and now I have the following tool I want to get rid of.
When I press on the right corner on the G(PRS), volume etc buttons, they are enlarged in a separate window (text balloon?). This means every time I want to access the volume or messages I have to go through 2 steps instead of 1, and I cannot change the volume of my phone just by scrolling the wheel, now the enlargement comes forward. (sorry for my bad english).
Is it possible to turn off this thing?
Thanks in advance!

Sure, you can turn it off. Just go around somewhere in Start/Setting then you will see the menu enlargement icon to turn it on or off.
Ignore the guy above - he's just a smart arsed f***wit who either doesn't know what he's talking about or just simply cannot be arsed to read your question properly.
Now, as you've no doubt already found out, his instruction was for a totally seperate thing (for his sake - YOURS CHANGES THE SIZE OF THE ICONS ON THE START MENU when what the post actually asked was how to get rid of the speech bubble that comes up when you click on an icon...idiot)
What you need to do is to fire up a registry editor (handily, there's one included) and go to HKLM\Services and find the LargeTitleBar key.
Delete it. Restart. Job done
Have a nice day
Smiffy.
With all due respect to a senior member like you, i would like to tell you that whatever vichet007 has said is true and if you disable large start menu you can get rid of the bubble. So why unnecessary flame some guy who is trying to help.
Thanks

Menu option
I'd like to know what setting lyhouth is talking about. I searched in settings and could only find large and small keys settings.
Quakie
Large Start Menu (and large Title Bar)
Having seen both functionalities (larger start menu as well as large Title bar bubble) as separate entities here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=344533
i have concluded, that Schap's must have skillfully crafted one switch to simultaneously change the state of both settings.
This "Toggle switch" is found in:
Start -> Settings -> et voila "Large Start Menu"
While the larger style sure comes in handy for thumb use, it is a drawback of the large setting, that one cannot simply in- or decrease in call volume by simply using the scroll wheel but one has to remove the phone from the ear and set it manually via said big bubble.
Using the siple routine indicated above, one can decide for onesself, whether this feature combination caters to ones personal needs and preferences or not.
Being given the choice, along with the Advanced config tool et al. is what makes Schap's Roms so useful and great in my personal view. I must say I love them.
Cheers, Chris

Sorry Mr Senior Lordsmiff for this inconvenience. I just do hope that my contribution/response can help because I used to do this when I have this issue (if I can understand this issue). Please just ignore my post if you think it's not helpful or it's wrong because I am not an expert like you, Mr Senior. I spent time responding to this (using my limited knowledge as what you mentioned) because I do believe that people in this forum are helping each other if they think they can help.
Sorry for my bad English as well.
Hey come on you guys - don't be all up tight about this. It was tongue in cheek - highlighted by my use of stars instead of actually swearing. Everyone gets flamed occasionally, including me.
Suck it up and don't be such a bunch of girls.
Oh, and xda2jojo - next time you PM me to tell me not to use an inappropriate word, make sure I've actually used an inappropriate word.
The number of times I've spoken to flar and others in an attempt to become a mod and stop the people that are actually using bad language on here to each other and i get a PM reprimanding me for using stars in a tongue-in-cheek post??? Was there not enough smiley faces for you?
I apologise to lyhuoth for my abrasive sense of humour but that's what it was.
xda2jojo can f*** off and give me a free holiday then.
Well...we are all from different location, different culture with different sense of humor.
My co-mod including flar knows everything before i sent a pm to remind others.
Try to use again inappropriate word even using star, i'm gonna give you a permanent holiday.
I *really* can't believe that you're having a go at me because I'm censoring myself and not actually swearing...unbelievable.
With the personal attacks that go on around here all the time, I'm being censured for personal restraint during a tongue in cheek post.
It's obvious to me that you don't do any modding on this forum because anyone who knows me and has seen my previous posts knows that I am sarcastic, abrasive and helpful in equal measure.
Since when did the mods around here:
A) do any actual modding
B) start wearing jack boots
Custel got a 24hour ban for far far worse and you're threatening me with a permanent ban for using stars????
Seriously, unbelievable.

[Q] [Request] Simple number application

Hello,
I'm a starting devolper, i tried to install visual studio and the sdk's ect, but im stuck in a huge reducantion hell. but that aside.
I wourld realy like if someone is able to make me this application.
i want a simple application with 2 number input filelds (i would prefer if you use the sense sdk)
and the deafault value of both sould be 20, en max to 50, and min to 0.
I wourld realy like it if it has a scrolling function for the input.
it doesent have to do anything with the number.
for example of what i would like it to look like see atatchment
Hmmm,simple to do that.
May I have a question for what purpose do you need that?

For a game, Magic the Gathering. I would realy apriciate it if you made it
I can try to do something,but in different,bit simplier design first of all.
Scrolling or up/down controls?
Please describe better your requests,what exactly you want.
Well its realy easy to make, just ust the sense sdk, in the link upside, and it will graphicaly look right.
so that you can easly go up or down several numbers. so you can scroll it, it's nececairly
I could do that just using native code(I have knowledges just with Embedded Visual C++). I have no experiences with Sense SDK. Will be it hope enough. A will give a look at it within few hours.
Here we go.
Please check out this demo and let me know,if the scrolling is OK.
Exit from the app is by tapping area below 400pixels.
testing it now
---edit-----
works like a charm but a question can you make one box next to it, and some sort of line in the middle, so that you can see what value it has and maybe move it a bit away from the corner.
TYVM
Of course.
This is just a scrolling test. I started to develop it from zero.
Can you paint some layout you like?
The first one is how it curently looks the second one is what i like it to look like
Just so simple?
Sorry,I can't share it with this design
I will prepare something more clever okay?
sure, or jou could make it like this screenshot i posted in front. XD
---edit----
like the second one only bigger, and much longer
---edit----
look what i found http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=701177
Btw,what a device you are using?
This link you posted for my imagine of the design or did you found what you want?
i found what i wanted, thankyou very much
OK,no problem. However I'll finish that,maybe you'll like it.
Working on this design...
Tahts way better bit i dislike the brown, can you use red perhaps?, and i dont think its quite the resolution of my phone. i'v got the hd2
Well,little bit busy at work...
However I thought,you found your needs,so I start focusing on another things.
I can spend some time with further development...
