On basically all android phones i have seen (that are not from htc) there is a kind of "zooming" animation when you open an app and a kind of "unzooming" one when an app closes
How can we get this on the desire?
Thanks in advance

What a coincidence that I just posted a similar thread a few hours ago
Sorry I'm a new registered user and I'm not allowed to post the URL of my post here.
You can find it in next page hopefully, but I haven't got any replies yet
If you are using the shipped ROM, I think it is just because HTC Sense UI disabled it. I feel confused because even if I flashed my phone with OpenDesire ROM, the zooming out animation is still missing while the opening zooming in animation is OK now. So I also want to know if there is way to tweak. However, I guess you will need the root access even if there is way to tweak
Suggest you guys check out LauncherPro. That supports fly-in and fly-out effects when entering and exiting applications.
Well, I know that 3rd party launcher apps can do this, but this animation should be built-in because I can see it in the SDK emulator, and also in Nexus One, so I would more like to figure out why I cannot see it in OpenDesire, and if other users can see it normally.

exactly ... also i don't like LauncherPro

In my thread someone suggested to try Spare Parts, I installed it but I found I can only adjust the animation speed, but no switch to turn on / off a particular animation...
Pretty sure HTC turned off this pointless 'feature' in Sense...
so is there any way to turn it back on?
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
Although I'm nothing todo with the XDA Android Tapa-talk based app - I thought it was about time we had a single thread for all discussions making it easier for the powers that be to monitor and give feedback via.
Feel free to ask questions about it's use and report any faults you find. You can also ask for new features, but I cannot promise they will ever be delivered.
N.B. The mods will be merging questions about the app into here from the "About" forum also.
So, have at it...
[Insert witty picture here]

how about a wm5 app because when i try to access xda from my tytn 11 using opera or IE i get the web version. should i be typing in a diffrent addy?
FC when logging in?
On my HTC Eris (2.1 stock; rooted), I can read forums fine, but as soon as I try to login to search or post, the app FCs. I have uninstalled/re-installed, cleared cache, etc., But can not get rid of the problem. It did work initially.
Has anyone else seen this or anything similar?
Thanks!
The Tapa Talk based app seems to work well other than a minor bug I've noticed. It appears the Desire Q&A forum is missing in the HTC Desire section. At a guess it may be a bug in the Tapa Talk software dealing with the ampersand in the forum name.
Hello I was in hope of an update that can give settings options to auto hide the dock at the top i have an HD2 running Android and it would be great if i was able to use my whole screen versus a fraction of it due to the Android status bar and the fixed menu options at the top

I like this idea.
We're working on a premium ad-free version of the app. It might take a while, but maybe not. This is a good example of a feature that would be included.

Sorry to reply to my own post, but just noticed what is causing this. Must have favourited the Desire forum before the Q&A forum was added so never seem to see it while accessing via favourites.
However, if I access it via the main forum lists it appears fine.
Workaround seems to be to remove favourites and re-add them if any new sub-forums are added.
Hello,
Don't know if this issue is known here on the forum, if so my apologies and you can move this reply.
Working on Desire HD, i can't seem to save my favorites.
XDAapp is installed fine, I can login, then i can save a favorite, but when i close the app and open it again, my favorite is gone.
I've tried to install the app again, but this won't help.
Any1 have a solution?
Nevermind,
after reinstalling the app twice again it worked.
Not got a phone at the minute so cant test the app for a few days to check if the feature is already there but how about 2 version or at least 2 themes 1 for lcd screens (light version) and 1 for amole screen (dark version) just to help save on battery life as we all know lcd performs better with light colours and amoled performs better with dark colours.
Getting "XDA App" without using Android Market?
This is not a "bug" or "feature request", however, I'm following various development efforts here in XDA land and would love to have the XDA App on a Android 2.2 Tablet that does not have access to the Market!
Why is the latest version of the "XDA App for Android" not available as a simple download somewhere on this website?
I found an old 0.9 version that has problems and would like to get (and keep) the latest and greatest verion on my Tablet!
Thanks in advance for any help you all can provide...
Regards.
That's a fair idea
Though it's tempting to ask why you don't just make the market work on the device and install from there
But still, good idea

Got a strange bug that no matter how many times i Re-install the app it just doesn't go away.
Basicly it started happening randomly the other day (worked fine for a while) and know when ever I search for anything the app FC's.
I've tried re-installing & even wiped my phone back to stock but still the same thing happens every time.
Any advice?

I've just checked with my friends Desire HD & his does the same! To replicate the fault do the following.
*Open the app
*Once loaded press the "Search" button on your phone.
*Search for something
That's pretty much it, as soon as you press enter it FC's. Ill see if i can dig about more & find out why it is doing this & if there is a work around!
I found myself using it all the time. It's a very handy app for keeping current. Unfortunately, I can't find a way of navigating to the "Legacy" phones section, so it no longer shows the forum I was reading.

There were some server errors last night, during which time you would have received blank pages, or messages about tapatalk having been removed.

I have found a work around & I now know which phones this effects.
This problem only seams to effect new UK HTC Phones like the Desire Z & HD (Not 100% sure if its just UK phones but that is all I have to work with). It does not matter which rom its on as it effects all roms (must be something to do with the hardware!)
There is a work around that allows you to search & this is it:
1) Once the app is running click on the "More Info" tab
2) Click back onto the "Latest" tab
3) Press the search button & search as normal
I belive its something to do with the hardware of the Desire Z/HD. Maybe its not allowing the xda app to open our account thus not allowing us to search so when accessing the "More Info" tab it allows the phone to access our account? Just a theory though!
Hope this helps someone! I'm just happy that I can know search XDA on my phone! XD

FC on Advent Vega
I've just started using the App on a Advent Vega (Android 2.2)
If I click on the favourites tab, I can log on and see my favourite forums listed. I can then open up the forums, but as soon as I click on a thread, I get a FC.
If I don't log on, I can access the threads with no problems.
I have tried this on my Desire, but there are no issues with that device.
If you need any more info, please let me know.

I have exactly the same problem on the Advent Vega, previous versions of the XDA app were more stable but for some reason didn't bring in my favourited forums. :/
Hello everyone
After getting rather chummy with the Virtuous ROM, I ran into a small problem: The screen changes to landscape just fine when the hardware keyboard is used but not when it's closed. I've looked under settings but couldn't find an option to change that.
I remember that on the stock HTC ROM, there was an App installed for this, I believe. Do I have to redownload this? Where would I find it?
Regards and thank you,
Go to settings, Display, and check enable auto rotation
That option is checked and it has always been.
Perhaps I should also mention that Angry Birds, as an example, does display in landscape but it does so out of principle (there doesn't seem to be any other mode).
If you're talking about the homescreen, I don't think that HTC Sense allows Landscape mode without the keyboard out.
I could be wrong, of course, but I do believe it worked when I had the stock ROM installed.
This is not a dealbreaker, of course, it's just I was wondering about that.

I have the stock ROM, and nope, it does not switch to landscape mode, except when the keyboard is out. It makes sense since you don't want your homescreen switching back and forth when walking or in a vehicle or something like that.
launcher pro homescreen will switch to landscape when turned, at least on a mt4g rooted running 2.2.1 it does. i havent gotten my G2 yet (this week it should be arriving) so i have yet to try it on a G2 yet.
So I downloaded this and I've never used Beautiful Widgets before, so this was my first. I found a very nice skin "Ice Cream Sandwich" by Tama-Chan.
I go to Settings as I'm not sure if you can change something, and when I go into General, it just Force Closes everytime. I un-installed and installed again and it's still FC'ing.
Also, is it possible to edit an existing skin? I just want to get rid of two black boxes surrounding the clock and the blue border, but I'm not sure you can. I have googled as much as I can and I can't find anything.
Any guidance would be very helpful, thanks in advance
What version you on for ICS and BW? BW had a update just a little bit ago and not sure if that fixed what you are having issues with or not as I already updated. I did install the skin you have and I was able to get to the settings no problem and no FC at all. I am running 41D for ICS.
Well it was pretty recent as I snapped it up during the 10p sale. I'm using the standard ICS no custom ROMS flashed or anything. Do you think I should uninstall and install again? Or does that mean I have to pay again? I'm such an Android noob lol...this is my first true Android phone

You don't have to pay again once you've purchased it!
The app however was updated either today or last night, so go to the market and update it! It fixed all of the crashing problems for me
Thanks a lot! The update fixed my problems

It is possible to modify the skins. Go to /sdcard/data/beautifulwidgets. The sub folders will be like: tskins (toggle skins), wskins (weather skins) etc. Those folders contain the image(s) for the skins

If I can reuse this thread. Does anyone know how to stop the temperature displaying in the notification area?
I already have the Accuweather app doing this (with a bigger better version)
I've turned off notifications in the widget but its still there?

I use Dialler One. Have been for years.
My first android phone was a HTC Hero and with Sense it had the ability to search my contacts when I started typing their name.
Moving to stock android I lost that =[
But Dialler One was the first one I found to replace it, and I've used it on every phone since. =]

On stock ROM it can even search your exchange adressbook.
