[HOWTO] Enable quick app switch view for Mango Emulator - Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking

I have found a way to enable quick app switching (or what ever it is called) in the Mango emulator. It seems to be a little bit buggy but it works. Here is a screenshot:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Here is the how to:
1. Press [Windows]+[R]. A "Run" dialog should appear.
2. Now type in "notepad %programfiles%\Microsoft XDE\1.0\WM7_Skin.xml"
3. Find
Code:
<button
toolTip="Back"
onClick="0x3B"
mappingColor="0xF7941D"
/>
and replace onClick="0x3B" with onPressAndHold="0x3B" so it would look like this:
Code:
<button
toolTip="Back"
onPressAndHold="0x3B"
mappingColor="0xF7941D"
/>
4. Now start your emulator and press and hold the back button

Thanks but Why don't you just hold f1 button?

I didn't know about F1!

This does not work for me. I have the Mango emulator but the folder you said to that the .xml is in does not exist

Click to collapse
maybe you got windows 64 bit
then replace %programfiles% with %programfiles(x86)%
so the path then should be C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft XDE\1.0\WM7_skin.xml

Bootanimations that look good on Galaxy Nexus

I did not create these, unless stated. What I did was to try them out, modify resolution and see if they look good or bad or work at all.
All of the attachments have resolution already changed for Galaxy Nexus.
Installation is as usual: rename to Bootanimation.zip, then copy into /Data/Local
You can preview them on the phone: open terminal, enter su, enter bootanimation and press enter. NOTE: To exit the animation you need to press CTRL+C on bluetooth or USB keyboard, so connect it before executing bootanimation command.
You can also preview Bootanimations on PC with BootAnimationPreview
So here we go:
This one was found on XDA Forum here
It looks nice when upscaled to high res. The attachment name is: desirehd-bios-boot_yazayad.zip

This is Fireplace which I created myself:
This one is also found on XDA here, it's called AndroidParticles1:
AWESOME

[SOFTKEYS] Droid 4 Style ǂ ICS blue

I just made these for myself, and I liked the way they came out, so I figured I'd share. Inspiration came from seeing my friends new droid 4.

Included in the .zip are the following files:
*Not a flashable zip, these must be added to your SystemUI.apk, search bar location is dependent on your rom*
Code:
ic_search_land.png ic_sysbar_home.png
ic_search.png ic_sysbar_lights_out_dot_large.png
ic_sysbar_back_land.png ic_sysbar_lights_out_dot_small.png

ic_sysbar_home_land.png ic_sysbar_recent.png

If you included a search button as well, I'd be in.

What do you mean by the whole set? I'm using the menu key as the recent apps button. I'll add the 3 dot 'menu' key I made along with the landscape png's as soon as I finish them.
Edit: Updated OP, added all necessary files/.zip with all .png's

[App][Total Commander]

For all of us who are using it on PC (and missing it on android )
It's still on beta and not yet available on Google Play but, as far as i'm used it, it's fully operational and functional. Good thing is that it never ever asked for superuser privileges but it can do whatever you want with system files so...
you can download it at http://www.ghisler.com/android.htm and bellow are some screenshots that show/prove it's functionality
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
P.S. It does looks a bit confusing at first sight (like it's predecessor on PC at first look long, long time ago...) but after few finger hits over the screen it gets very logical and practical so give it a shot
How about remount /system to RW?

Full.
First, while you are in system folder, hit last green button in main menu:
then hit the R button:
and there you go:
As i understood on the TC forums there is will of author to make that R button permanent part of main menu but with this way it stays open down there untill you choose to disable it so it's fine like this too
Final 1.01 version out, now also available on playstore:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ghisler.android.TotalCommander
and ,best of all, it's free
Thanks man for a wonder app.

It's messy, but you could try the registry.
Run regedit (hit Start or Win+R, type "regedit" without quotes, hit Enter, approve UAC prompt).
Go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Shell Folders
Edit the strings in the relevant registry values, such as "My Pictures".
Log out and log in again (or just restart).
I can't promise it will work - your error is weird and I've never seen it before - but hopefully it will.
Yeah it worked ! I had to do it ten times after removing and re-insert the SD but it finally worked
thank you !!
