Anyone know if there is an alternative for us?

Check out G-Profile. There are plenty of others out there, bnut G-Profile works pretty damn good for me.

iPhone CAB

For Those Who Wanted An iPhone ROM, Heres A CAB That Should Do Most Of What You Want.
Here It Is iPhone.cab
It Includes:-
Grumps - iPhone App
inphyy - iPhone App Configurer
A_C - Slide2UnLock
larna - iContacts
xelashiu - iPhone Dialer Skin
And A Welcomehead BMP That I Found On The Forum.
Hope It's Ok Not Fully Tested It Yet, Please Leave Feedback.
Cheers
Thx for the release?...are there any problems if I want to remove the CAB...in case I have some problems?
How is the response time of the OS after install....much slower than WM6 withouth this or...?

Gooooood question!
I'd like to take look, just fer ****s & giggles ye know? don't wanna screw up my current install now. I'm in far too happy a place, ROM wise
Already tried it out...but it is useless for me...respons...like 3-5 sec after tapping a button...5mb less free RAM...this is too much for me..
Regards,
Primoz
All I can say is that the Dialer will not work correctly on 8252 with CIN 3.5.2. There are some alignment issues with numbers.
Also it's impossible to enter the settings for the skin and PHONE icon not linked correctly.
Best Regards
Why is this in the WM6 forum? Does the CAB only work on WM6?
It probably doesn't belong in this topic, but why don't we try and change that?
Would there be interest in making a WM6 ROM that looks and acts almost like an iPhone? I can see there being some disadvantages and no doubt a lot of people will miss the today screen, but there might be a few people interested none the less.
Maybe it would be better to keep it as an "iPhone CAB" with everything on it, so that users can try it and remove it quite easy?
What other programs would we need in the ROM do you think?
I'm thinking it would be good to try and embed Piscel Browser, or similar at least, so that you have the fancy finger scrolling on websites.
Maybe we could add the ringtones as well....

Why not ! Could be fun to try at least, providing performance didnt render it unusable.
@Pc78
To Deal With The Response Times, Select Settings And You Should Be At The Configurator App, You Can Change The Response Times With This App.
@.VIBE
It Should Uninstall Correctly, As That Option Was Selected With WinCE CAB Manager
@dusank
Strange The Phone Link Works Fine On My Phone, Maybe Try It Again After A Soft Reset.
Cheers
Follow The Links That Are Posted In The First Post, For Information On How To Configure The Individual Apps.
Cheers
Does it include the filedialogchanger made by ??? which is posted with iConfig?
and could you write which versions of the apps in the .cab?
sorry, but im a little lazy atm so i havent downloaded it..
Problems with Dialer
This is my first post, can you put xelashiu WM6 version of the dialer in the cab file. because of the problems with key pad numbers lining up, otherwise great app Many Thanks

GREAT CAB
Great cab, I was just looking forward to install a cab like these, but has only problem with the dialer, I hope can be fix. Thank you for the great work.
This CAB is very nice, but it was eaier to configure an iPhone theme using WAD with all the godies. Plus, you can put the icons wherever you want and add or delete them.
Unfortunately WAD is buggy and creates a soft reset from time to time. Other than that it's a nice app to play with!
I really like the start for this app... iContact is my favorite cause its a Stylusless UI. Now if everything else is ported it would be awesome!!! The dialer is a good start too but really needs work with simplifying it. It doesn't need to be that complicated and the look can be polished too. I'm willing to work on it with the developer if you need more of my feedback. I'm an interface designer by trade so please use me
I AM WILLING TO PAY IF SOMEONE WERE TO MAKE THE ENTIRE iPHONE OS AS A CAB OR WM6 REPLACEMENT!
Anyone else?
I'm a software developer with a fresh mind straight from Uni...so if anyone wants to team up let me know and I'd be happy to start on this project.
Slither I'm up for it!
I'll design the interfaces... You make them work!
Deal or No Deal?
Oh btw which direction would you like to go Cook our own ROM or CAB?
Deal
I like the CAB direction...btw I'm working full time so i'll dedicate time for the project mainly in the evenings and whenever I get time during work. PM me for design thoughts you have.
Cheers.
slither & and spidey
im excited to see what you guys will produce...

android on i780

Any project or ppl working on this?
Not that i have heard of, i would have thought it is pretty unlikely to happen to be honest. Probably more chance of it on the I900.
I dont think our I780 user group is big enough for there to be the demand needed to make it worth someone doing it.
i dun think so man, it is a great challenge to do tat
i really wait eagerly for the day that i port my i780 to android! some people got to be working on this

Dear,
it's looks like cool if samsung i780 could run android too...
any one want to try this ?
thx
Who is still interested by putting Android on his i780 ? I am personnaly interested ! who can upload the rom ?
i think, the first thing we should do is download the SDK and try to dump it into i780 if possible
thx

We know that is some part of the world, the i780 is or is going to be distributed with Android installed on it, so for sure, maybe trying to dump these roms & to install them on ours, should be the first & best simple step, no ?
That's why I was asking for Android ROM as it should exists for i780 in some part of the world
Anyway, I just installed the Eclipse environment for the Android SDK... in the case of....
ME!
I would certainly like to run android on my i780.
The one reason i got it, was because of the touchscreen+qwerty setup, but the touch screen is pretty much useless as it is.... Well except from playing Lemmings CS, that is.
Bugs and a terrible UI are the main drawbacks of this device.
The only way I have managed to get sort of a finger friendly interface on it, is with spb mobile shell and the 320x320 theme pack. But it is not a todayplugin, and so "pop-ups" does not work properly, and it will go back to the WM today-page when clicking the end-button or exiting many apps.
WM was never made for a mobile phone device. Neither for being navigated without a stylus. I believe that is the main reason why it suck so much at both. Android on the other hand...
And from what I have seen so far, it looks nice. Me wants.
edit: Seems like the Koogan Agore was never released? A comment somewhere seems to point the finger at google an some google certification problem.. Still, maybe someone could mail them and ask nicely for the ROM?
I hate saying this, but is there any news? Maybe someone spotted some news on the web?
I found a video which showed two Samsungs running Android. The Omnia and the i780/Epix.
I'm searching for a couple of minutes now, but I can't find it anymore.

Looks promising indeed! Do you know how stable is this?
so has there been any significant breaktrhough regarding android and the i780
I had the wm6.0, then the 6.5 and now the 6.1, but I find them all to be much too unstable and to fidly to even bother learning more about them.
I did like the wm6.5 interface a lot and I believe android would be a class above everything else regarding UI
Also the guy on the blog posted an image with the android.

Pointui Home 2

Pointui Home 2 is Out.
Not testing yet, i just install it, but looks prety great!
http://www.pointui.com/
Runs and looks great, but things i dont like:
- Too much space at the buttom and
- i had to install it on the internal storage and not on the SD Card
But the rest is, as i said before, great. Good work i think.
Finally!
Looks and feels great - I think I would def upgrade to pro for unified messaging etc.
I am a happy bunny! Might just have to ditch touch flo 3d
Dont work for me Have a Swedish stock ROM.
runs great!!!
well it was running good until it locked up my device lol, soft reset time
I dont like it, something is missing
It looks really great and the animations are smooth. But it misses some features but I think they will come some time because it seems rather easy to write Apps for it. Not like Manila where you have many problems with adding your own stuff.

unfortunately none of that works. Even the folks on the forum are having problems. Looks like it isnt working correctly yet.... but it is still considered beta so ....... modding those files only makes all the weather disappear Guess I will wait on this one for a bit

yes going to have to agree here. I am open to trying out new versions, definitely has potential with some additions and things you mentioned
No Thanks
I was a massive fan of PointUI v1 and had been looking forward to v2 being another huge step forward.
However, I have to say that it looks like a great big bag of crap next to TF3d (and I'm not a big fan of TF3d). Furthermore it seems to have limited functionality, is only a plugin and although it openly states it is a beta, the tone of the feedback in this site is distinctly mixed.
I think I would forgive the bugginess if it just looked better and brought something I thought was useful. But even the screenshots on PointUI's own site look poor quality.
Lastly, the 'Pro' version is paid for software - so how much? What will it do that Mobile Shell and WAD don't? Maybe the applet development will make it a must have...but it certainly needs a few good skinners on the case...
In summary...disappointed - just my personal opinion

Agreed. Not impressed at all...I'm sticking with WAD.
mmm
Yup aggred , instaled it .. and it was not as " smoth " as the 1.X, why have small buttons?.. why have news feeds?
I have a theme now for TF3D and it kinda looks goods... staying with that for a while .. sorry point guys
I quite like it, but it seems that I'm in the minority.
I've added my home town to the weather applet without any trouble at all, also local news in the today feed. Not sure why someone was having a problem configuring that. Pilot error?

It is hardcoded. I have the same problem on my dutch device.It doesn't find the install path on localized devicesI didn't see any icon neither.
So I started it manually.

[Q] Is there some kickass Today screen?

Hey there
Could someone give a really good advice with link to themes for it so I can see...
I have tried so many plugins that my eyes are bloody already...
Maybe I just didn't find good combination of plugin/theme...please someone..
thank you.

You may want post what you've tried already so the suggestions that come through won't be plugins that you've already written off.
I'm currently in the process of testing SPB 3.0.1. Still not sure if I like it enough to replace TF3D as it doesn't allow total integration with my other apps...Resco contacts, sms chat.
I guess you are right.
For starters, I have installed SPB 3 and WM7 black skin..it is very good..not the best but good, I like it
So far I have tried:
×Throttle launch (not good, graphics were blurry, guess it is more for VGA , but could be OK for VGA device)
×PocketPlus (too much stuff, didnt like it)
×HTC Home (I dunno why, but I guess this plugin did something bad to my phone, it acted weirdly, although it provided informaton I wanted, I did a painful Hard Reset and after that everything was OK)
×SPB 2 (I used this for very long time, but I got bored from the graphics and I liked and hated Now screen at the same time )
×PointUI2 (this was freaking awesome, very smooth graphics, but I lack WVGA skins and applets, good skins were VGA only and I couldnt switch to my today screen, which I do sometimes to check how much have I called already)
×rlToday (this one could be great, but It was very small on my screen, I could hardly see the clock )
×this is all I remember what I have tried
Now I am using:
SPB 3
HomeScreen++ (I use this only as a Call Timer, but would like to use it wider, but dunno how , does someone have an advice how to get a MAX out of this prog?)
And I have Spb Wireless monitor and Spb Backup on my todayscreen.
Thats it. So I guess I have tried a lot, but still am not absolutely satisfied.
What I really wish for is something like Omnia today screen..Ow how I would like to drag and drop widgets...I know FEWidgets can do this but I dont like how it looks...
And what I would like to have mostly is somekind of desktop with Icons and stuff...ust like a normal PC....
Thx for replies guys.

Ow
You see, as I said I didn't remember
I tried WAD already, but again, some things are not to my liking.
I guess I am very demanding
thanks for your helps guys.
I guess I will stick with SPB 3 for some time.
Although Id like to make my own theme but dunno how.
I made a thread about this, hope someone will throw some letters in it
Thanks.

[APP] HTC Tasks

HTC Tasks - an application using the Sense SDK to manage your Outlook tasks
I always wondered why my HD2 did not come with a replacment app for the stock tasks application, especially since Sense replaces almost everything. Anyway, I downloaded eboelzner's Sense SDK and startet writing this little app today.
Requirements:
Windows Phone 6.x
.netCF 3.5
(W|Q)VGA device
Current features (very basic):
Add Task
Localization (English, German, Spanish; auto-detect language)
Sense UI
change task status
change importance
change subject
Future Features:
Settings
Change other task properties (description, due date, etc.)
maybe other languages
images showing importance
Localization:
Oh and I would be glad if someone could take a look at my Spanish localization and tell me if something's wrong (my grammar is miserable and I'm not familiar with the Spanish techno-babble) and maybe somebody wants to translate this into other languages as well. So please contact me via PM if you are interested in helping me.
Download:
not yet available
Excellent! Sounds very promising. I also wondered why the Tasks had been left untouched by HTC....

More than 4 years here and don't know how to PM... So here I am, ready to check the traslation. Spanish is my native language
Got your PM and thank you. I will send you the localization files before I upload the app, ok?
Looks good. But arent there already apps like this one? Ptasks etc.
Always good with alternatives tho
In my opinion pTasks is not very fingerfriedly, which is pretty important if you have a device with capacitive touchscreen.

HTC Task sounds great. I use the WinMo-Task every day... it works very good but its so ugly.
A question: Do you want the important tasks to be colored?
I encountered a really strange bug. When I change the tasks StartDate and Update the task (Task.Update()) I get a Win32 Exception. Has any other .NET CF developer an idea what could be causing this?
edit: found out what the problem was. StartDate has (logically) be before DateCompleted.
Makes me wish I knew more about coding. I'm useless when it comes to that kind of thing...
This is really great! Thanks for your efforts.
I don't know if you'd be interested in this or not, but I'd love to see an app like this that can be used as a tab in Sense.
Thanks again!

same here i would love to see it as a tab but what you are creating should do fine for me.
Hi,
looks very promising and I'm looking forward to the first available version to give it a try.
bye
Sven
I'd like to see command line support to use it with Advanced Home Tab (Cookies Home Tab addon) to have directly access to a task.
Looks great!
I will do the translation to Dutch if you want?
Joris
Just to inform you: Advanced Home Tab for CHT adds the possibility to show tasks in the calendar-panel in home tab, too! You have simply to swype it to the right to show your tasks and swype to the left to go back to the appointments!
There are other programs here (ptasks and tasks manila) but the development on both of those has stopped. So hopefully you can finish off your vision before you get too busy working on something else.
You might consider making an actual tasks tab for Sense UI. That's what I've been looking for. Being integrated with Sense means I don't have to start up another application. Just a suggestion.
I'm looking forward to testing this out.
Nice work. If want, Im offer translating to Czech.
Looks very nice. I can translate this to Romanian.
