WM6

does anyone know if or could i have the start menu on the bottom? that would make it feel more like a PC.....

No.
Use Wisbar Advanced Desktop for that

What a wonderfully non-descriptive subject line.
It says absolutly nothing and gives no clue what the post is about.
It forces us to actualy open the message and read it to have any idea what the issue, question, or information actualy is.
A new low point has been reached.
To answer your question. Two ways come to mind to move the menu to the bottom so its more like a PC.
Ignoring the fact that, if this was actualy done, the softkeys would now be in the wrong place for the hardware keys and that this question doesn't have anything in particular to do with Windows Mobile 6.
1) turn the phone upside down
2) buy a PC and use the phone as a modem.
Those are the only ways I can think of.

Wow, what a wonderfully non-helpful post. It does not answer anything, and it forces us to read it just to figure that out.
A new low has been reached.
Next time u got nothin good to say, don't say anything at all.
@Zacch, ive been trolling these boards for a few months and havent seen anything of this nature. I'm not sure the phone can even support somethin like that, but if there was u would find it here.

deach01 does have a point, though. How many of us have time to actually read every single thread? I certainly don't. The only reason I read this one is because I was tempted to make a post similar to what deach01 said. If someone has a question, and they'd like to have people read the question and respond to it, PUT A REASONABLE SUBJECT on the message!
I can only think of two reasons why someone would post in a WM6 forum a subject that says "WM6" - and neither one of them is very complimentary.
The two biggest problems with public forums like this (as I see it) is A) People asking the same question over and over without looking through previous posts to see if it has already been answered, and B) People using vague or "catchy" subject lines, like "WM6" or "PLEASE GOD HELP ME!".
Well, now that I've broken one of my main rules for forum posting (i.e. keep on topic) I'll go back to work. I just wanted deach01 to know that he isn't alone in his frustration with this sort of nonsense.
Brian.

You actually can turn one of your softkeys to launch the start menu. Here's a few options:

I downloaded the Android Cab file on TIlt 2, n luvn it

I wish all the customs roms that chefs cook up were this easy to do. I was reading on the forum last night about this and came across the cab file version of this install. Its soo easy its pathetic. by the way i have Att Tilt 2 stock rom windows.v.72001a(or somethin) windows mobile 6.5 manilla v.2.1. doing this install made me realize two things. How fast att actually can be at times. this was basically a 90mb. file. I downloaded it with opera mobile 10 on regular service in like 5 mins. Thats pretty fast to me for a phone. i can just imagine if i used opera mini but mini doesnt let store files downloaded to your storage card. which is still cool because cut and paste puts it wherever u want. Second thing i noticed is how much more Informative this forum is. That google android cab is a brilliant piece of work. i dont know how they exactly did it but it works pretty damn good to be not the final version yet. i was skeptical doing this type of modding, since it is complex and looks like your rom being reflashed or something..lol i was like ohhh lord, what i do now..lol but to much surprise, just like the instructions say, it loaded flawlessy, basically. Knowing me, i tried testing all the capabilities of it seeing how far itll let me go. I like the android set up and interface. There are still some things i noticed wasnt working yet. like the wifi. or the keyboard light doesnt come on. it still works though. i havent tried the bluetooth yet. i didnt like that my programs didnt carry over but no biggie since i guess its another format or something the phone is running. Its really cool how the install kicks windows or liniux off and boots up this android rom or whatever. they say its not an emulator or a full blown rom. seems like one to me by how good it works. Also the g sensor needs better way to calibrate. it doesnt rotate really like it should or not fast enough. When u on this though, u are limited to whats on this install. Meaning only using the programs that come on it. Knowing me, i tried going to the app store to see if itll let me download some prgrams. i got all the way to the end pressing download and an error came up on the screen. Maybe its not set up yet in this version to let u add android programs and stuff. which wouldve been insane. But hey, this is free. I definitely have to say how talented the people are that put this together. This is just like running any program really. and when i want go back to windows mobile or touch flo, just soft reset and bam, u back no problems. the first time installing is the longest, not too long though. any time after that, it boots up faster since all folders and whateva were already made. So after soft rest, i can just load it up anytime with the Haret icon just like i would load up Opera Mini. Thats just too cool. Ima fool my friends telling them i got new AnDroid Phone from HTC to mess wit their heads. Im definitely gonna read up alot more on these threads and see if any way to load or download android programs. i wanted the free opera mini 5 one so badly but error came up. force out or something. all in all, Im really liking the setup and the widgets. plus u can change backgrounds with preloaded ones, which seem high quality. just as clear as on tf3d with hdwalls. Sorry for the long post. Just wanted to rant and let any skeptical people with Tilt 2 like mines know this is One Install You definitely want to check out. I still have to test somemore on how far the capabilities go when in android mode. Ill keep ya posted.

i gotcha..lol

thanks for the post demandarin
i too am running the htc tilt2 and am rather new to all of this. so it was great to share your experience and concern. so with this android rom you saw that some things are not working. will you let me know when they get all the kinks worked out? please. i am interested. i have my phone dialed in the way i want it now with all that i have learned here, so i dont want to put anything on that doesnt have all the funtionality. so please if you remember hit me back when it is 110percent. thanks!

Doing this install/mod still enables you to use windows. you can now choose which Operating system. if u tired of windows and want to mess around with Android os, then this enables you to. this is still in developement so of course not every single function wrking. its good enough for now. i can make calls, recieve them, go online, go to android app store and download new android programs. I see what you are saying on not wanting to mess up your phone. the install cant get no easier than for this one. basically a new os/ROM without having to flash device. All i do is press Haret exe., like any other program, and it boots XDAndroid up everytime. im still amazed on having it. soon after enough reading and research, i might flash a rom or 2..lol All info needed is right here in the forum. ill keep ya posted, but this is a working version that u can text and make calls, etc...im glad i downloaded it.

Android nbh?

I just heard the news about flashing android on Diamond，can I get recognition here？
Sorry to my bad English，if you can‘t understand my words，you can use google translate the following：
我刚听说一些消息关于将android nbh，我能在这里得到肯定吗？

Hrm... You obviously know mildly what you're talking about if you're referring to nbh...
Why didn't you use the search feature friend? Or even peruse the stickies... Maybe the first few posts of some of the popular threads?
Either way, I'll be nice. Basically it's not possible yet. Hopefully soon, I know a few devs are looking into it more seriously, one of them posting here - http://www.neopeek.com/en/community...67-Flashing+Android+on+our+devices?groupid=13
It's been done with other devices like the Kaiser, so it is possible. Just needs to be sorted out for our devices

If only it were possible to get a nbh for XDAndroid my life would be complete.
Of course there are many people working on it but I do not see it happening within the near future, as it is not a primary concern of the main dev team.
As of now we need to focus on stability and getting all hardware components to work 100% first.
I do see it as becoming possible within my devices life cycle so I am looking forward to it.
But as of right now, nope

[Q] how to install buttonremapper on XDANDROID FRX06?!

HEllo i woud like to install buttonremapper on XDandroid frx06 but in wont let me because i think it's not full rooted! how can I install it?!

Huh? Guess I'll have to try it on my RAPH110 to see if that is the device you are talking about. Not sure what you mean by "not fully rooted" as if it wasn't fully rooted, I wouldn't be able to install half of the apps/programs I have on there...
At best, it might be a device compatibility issue but this XDAndroid not fully rooted deal is hogwash to me(IMO).
[on another tangent]
Don't just say stuff like that unless you know for a fact that is the problem. It makes your problem less likely to be solved by the devs that work on the project and possibly from others that would otherwise be willing to help. And if you don't care one way or the other, why post about it?

FRX06 is most certainly 'rooted'. Titanium Backup wouldn't work otherwise...
I looked at that app, and I don't think we can use that app. You can remap buttons in the rootfs, which native Android devices do not have...

Question: Are you dumb?!
@arrrghhh
Well, maybe you can help me in another way. My problem is the following: my qwerty keyboad has the "A" & "F" letter unfunctional and in windows i had rebind them to other keyz. Does exists a solution for this problem on XDAndroid?!

Not really but I was being a tad sarcastic... I'm goint to take a stab in the dark and say you didn't catch it. Oh well, I don't suppose you want to tell us what device you are attempting to run this on(which was my main question and yes, I have seen other device owners post here). So, there's no way I can be of further assitance, my friend :enter sad face of choice here:
Additionally, you should take Arrrghhh's suggestion to remap the buttons in the rootfs... No idea how to help you in that arena either

Yea, you'd have to make your own keymap basically. It's doable, read thru F22's rootfs thread - there's tips on how it all works. Bust open the rootfs by bind mounting it on a Linux box and see what's inside. I believe the kl files are the ones you'll need to modify, just make your own and reference it in the startup.txt.

****! i thaugt that there is a app that can easily do it like in winMO. I don't have a clue of what you where instructed me! hope someday i'll have time to learn how to succesfuly rebind them! Thank you arrrghhh for now!
@R^7Z leave the sarcasm for other that have a nice life! It's not easy to buy a new keyboard when the price of one piece is half of my income/mounth. :|

"To each their own" my friend! I hope you find the good in the day...

Sorry, your situation is pretty unique. Perhaps there's something simple missing why it can't remap buttons on the fly, but I'm not aware of what. I would look into it deeper, but again - because of your unique situation I don't think it would really be worth it.

Just installed it in Gingerbread (alpha) and it FC'd when I attempted to run it but haven't had a desire to downgrade to FRX06 yet...
I might consider it later when I actually have the time...

You sir need to find the correct section. It's called Q and A. This section is development, for those that have developed something to post new topics. And you also might want to look into the iPhone 5. Sounds like that might be the more user-friendly type of device you need.

hahahah iphone 5 ahhaqhhah

I've got to agree with Aevia here. You were neither very helpful, nor very kind in your response. It's responses like this that are the worst thing about the xda community.
