Hey all,
I've really been trying to find a solution to this and searched a lot. I think it has something to do with the USER AGENT thing, and changing the registry, but I can't get it to work.
So PIE loads all pictures on the phone, automatically squishing it or formatting it for the hermes screen resolution. That's fine, but when I save the image, it ONLY saves it at that small, pixilated crappy resolution. I can't zoom the picture.
I think this is somehow linked to the whole "can't post on myspace" thing, because I can't post on myspace either haha.
I'm using the Black 2.5 right now, but tried Custel's 1.2 and had the same issue. When I used Black 1.2 or 2.0 it was NOT an issue.
This happens whether or not I use PIE Plus.
I know where the information is on the WIKI showing the reg edit to change the user agent so the web thinks you're using a regular desktop browser, and PIE Plus has this option to change in it's options as well, but it's not doing it.
Is there some other registry key or whatever that i'm missing that tells the internet how to format its information?
Again, I searched and looked and tried and hacked and regged haha, but did not find a definitive answer to this. MUST POST TO MYSPACE ON MY PHONE!!!!
Thanks.
anyone? i'm willing to donate some moolah... i need to figure this out before i hack back down to 1.2

check your pm's
thanks. i don't like opera though. the scroll bar on the right doesn't work at all and i don't like the interface.
the only reason i'm persistent here is because it actually WORKED at one time with no problems! all i did was change the user agent in the reg and it worked after i set it to make the net think it was windows xp.
but on these latest roms, it doesn't work.
i know there has to be a solution here.
thanks though!

scroll bar doesn't work? which version were you using? Also have you tried minimo? Not a fan of it personally but might work for your needs?
minislo is too mo... I mean... yeah.
I bumped back down to black 2.0 and PIE is perfect! man I may have to stay here
there's gotta be a reason it works here and not higher...
sorry to up my own thread,
but with black 3.5 now, the myspace posting works, and gifs work...
but jpegs still display as formatted to the screen size, and when saving the images, they are much smaller in file size and resolution.
for example, a normally 111kb file is only 25k when saved.
there has to be a definitive answer to this!! and i can't be the only one trying to look at po... uh, pictures and they don't display well.
I've noticed this behavior when I have the Cingular proxy enabled. My understanding is the proxy compresses images in order to speed up load times. Once disabled, images appear, and can be saved, as they should be.
Perhaps you have a carrier proxy enabled?
ugh... n00b question of the millenium
how do i disable the cingular proxy from black dymond?
How are you guys taking those screen shots of your homepage etc on the dash and getting them on the comp.
Thanks!

I would advice you use SmartToolKit RC08 as it works well with the dash, can be downloaded @ http://www.neilmorgan.co.uk/btbbanywhere/closing_applications.htm. Place this file on phone via active sync or beam via bluetooth find it via Filemanager on phone and click on and install. You will need to go into it's options to get it to load @ startup.
Hope this helps.
More software available @ http://www.neilmorgan.co.uk/btbbanywhere/software_good.htm
I've been wondering about this myself... After getting a screen capture on SmartToolkit, how do you get the bitmap to display in your post as a thumbnail? For some reason, I can only get it to be an attachment--but I want it to be visible to everyone as they scroll past my post.

hmm, I've never had a problem with this. All i do is take the screen shot, then put the xx.bmp on the desktop, upload it as an attachment and viola, it's there
if you want, i'll do it right now.
EDIT: I just realized what i did, open image in paint, save it as jpeg and upload the jpeg. it should work fine
Good Luck !
I like "My Mobiler". Free app, runs from your desktop and allows you to control your phone screen and save screenshots directly to your PC.

Are you running WM 6.1/Vista? I'm having trouble connecting it. Ok, i tried everything but it just does not connect, Ahh - Even tried connecting from the phone. Nothing happens. Just says connecting but never ends up connecting.
Can someone else try it out & tell me if it's working for them or not?
You know what, It's the damn firewall in vista but even after i turned it off, it's not working.
Oh well, nevermind
VISTA SUCKS - There you go, had to say it.

If only there a was a way to write sms's as well on the desktop, that'd be great...!
I use Smart SS
http://www.louterrailloune.com/smartss/
I also notice that there is now Smart SS+
http://www.louterrailloune.com/smartss-2/
I like that it is a small specific app without all the other junk like Smart Tool Kit. Not that I don't like Smart Tool Kit but it has a lot of stuff in it and if all you want is a screen shot than this app will do.
Seems like SMart SS+ will allow you to take .png and .jpeg as well as .bmp
Thanks for all the links guys, I will def try these out.

This was EXACTLY what I was looking for And recommend it to other, very easy to use
So I searched but couldnt find the answer. I am looking for the app that lets you control your phone from the computer. Its not screencast or remote desktop. It was an app that would give you an IP address to go to from your computer and up would pop the home screen of your phone. I charge my phone in another room and run wifi tether and would love to see whos texting me and be able to reply among other things without having to get up every two minutes. I had it before and flashed a rom and thought that titanium backup had run but it didnt so I lost it. Thanks for any help.
Well I would recommend Remote Desktop (I know you mentioned it), it is an awesome app that I use all the time, it lets you send sms messages. I think the one you are thinking of is called PicMe. It's ok, pretty sluggish IMO. I really think Remote Desktop is the best app for this type of thing.

I like remote desktop but you cant tell when you get a new text or whos it from.
edit.I do remember the one I had being a little sluggish so that might be it, haha.
Good thread. There's an app called Browsix that has a built-in sms client. Check it out.
Try webkey

webkey looks awesome just worried about the lag
webkey is exactly what you're looking for. When i used it I didnt see any lag. Kind of wish they had an option to alert you on ur computer screen when you got a text but maybe I just didnt select the right settings

I believe the app you may be looking for is called "droid VNC Server"....
I have it and have tested it to work with the Evo.
I never realized this but you can actually click on the "browse" button on web pages and it takes you to the picture hub to attach photos. You can't do this on iOS devices which is stupid.
With GPU accelerated IE9, WP7 will soon have the best mobile browser available!
one thing that i dont like about iphone browser is when you got to other tab, then after few minutes when you go back, the page will load again.
Sorry, what "browse" button are you talking about?
You know when you want to upload something on a website. That button.
Indeed, I didn't even try that assuming that iy wouldn't work. It does, however.
I do love these little gems that people are uncovering and sharing. There is so much to WP7!

Yeah, the WP7 browser is sweet. I have all 3 popular systems, iOS4, WP7 and Android, and IE is the nicest of them. However, I would like to see web pages adjust to frame size like the Android browser does... zooming in or out, the content adjusts to maintain full view rather than needing to scroll side to side to read it in portrait mode.
Huh?

No, its not part of the OS itself. Its the website button, on whatever website you are on to upload a picture.

Lets say your on lets say PhotoBucket or flickr something and you choose hey why not upload a picture and on your computer you click upload and "BROWSE" and you find the picture of last night and upload...
Well hes talking about that browse feature where you can locate the picture or watevr via a file manager or an app
can one of u guys with windows phone 7 go to depositfiles.com and see if it lets u upload a mp3 to that site since you guys say the browse button works with pictures but does it work with other file types on the phone like mp3s?
For example go to photofunia.com proceed to make a custom pic and you'll see what the man means (I really gotta change this Android avatar lol)

I highlighted the "Browse" button there. When you want to upload an image, you need to pick it on your device. iOS doesn't let you do that.

There's no way you'll be able to upload mp3s anywhere from WP7.
At this time it only lets you upload images. Maybe this will be extended to other OS "libraries" such as Office documents, but I can bet money it won't let you upload music without some hacking.

I'd rather they improve what they're doing now, resizing text to fit their frames, so you can read posts at a smaller zoom level.
After using android for a while I hated the reformatting it does, you end up having text breaking the flow of the website or a news post with an image that is so big it spans past your screen size just because the text reformatted to fit and it zoomed in way too much.
I find the iOS and WP7 browsers to be pretty smart in detecting what part of the website you want to read and resizing that text so you don't have to pinch or even double tap sometimes in order to read.

why is it that it will let u upload and download pictures from the browser? why wont it let u download a mp3 or a zip or rar file thru the browser? ive used a phone in the store and tried to download a mp3 it played the mp3 when i hit save to download it and it wouldnt add it to my library there has to be some where that its temporarily stored on the phone i wonder if theres a way to get it and save it to the library without using the computer
I think that's because 99.999% of all cases where users would upload mp3s to web sites would be for illegal sharing.
That's just my guess, though, and please don't argue with me about it.

Applications can be hidden from within the Hide it Pro app.
Gallery Features :
1.) Thumbnail View
2.) Pinch To Zoom , Double tap to zoom,Rotate pics
3.) Slideshow with Fade and Zoom effects
4.) Caching for seamless browsing

Just want to make it clear im not getting anything for doing this i am only supporting the work of a dev and wanted to share it with the community..Please give him a thanks once you had a look on his page..
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.smartanuj.hideitpro&hl=en
Really clever and useful app.
I've only used it to hide apps on friends' Androids, once I've configured them.
They're new to Android and want the simplest experience they can get, with all the benefits.
It's a shame that you cant hide Minimalistic Text and Desktop Visualizer, and still have them run on the homescreen though. Hidden apps won't always run in the background (as warned in the app).
I hope it continues to develop - it's definitely worth al look for anyone who is not aware of it's potential.
I love the fact that it actually operates as an audio manager. Excellent disguise.
I'm using it since a few month. Save with tb. Restore after flashing a new rom. You just have to hide app again. Great app. Bugless.

hey buddy if you go on your phone and in the search you put Hide Pro that will be the first thing it will come up..download it and enjoy the app. but if you want the link just let me know and i give it to you
Been using it for ages now and its quite good, easy to use etc.
The only problem is it doesnt truly hide the pictures, files etc you want hidden. It simply moves them somewhere else with the old . trick before the folder name. Anyone who is familiar with android phones will know how to find them with root explorer.
Ive been searching but cant find an app that truly hides it. Back in the days when i was on Windows mobile 6.5, there was an app "Hide my stuff" and believe me, it did just that. Connect your phone to the PC, the folder exists but its blank in size, no files, cant unhide them etc. Only way to view them is via the app on the phone but i cant find anything on Android that hides things like that app did :-(

Dont think you follow me, dont get me wrong, ive used for 6 months easy and it is good for what it does.
What i mean is that it doesnt matter what ROM youre using, it doesnt truly hide the files you think are hidden. ie/ if i had your phone, i would be able to find the files easily so if the average person took your phone, whatever pictures you hide, arent seen in the gallery for example however its easy to find anything you have hidden if you get my drift. This is because the app moves the files somewhere else. Any file explorer can see them so its not really hidden. go to /mnt/sdcard/programdata/android/language/.fr/ and everything hidden is there so i wouldnt call that hidden lol
The other app i mentioned when i was using windows TRULY hid the file and there was no way you could ever find it unless you unhid it with the app, hope that makes sense.
I was just putting it out there if anyone knew of an app on Android that truly hides files, i havent found one yet.

Much appreciated. I hope you have better luck then me because ive been looking for ages and to date, this one is one of the better ones. The way it functions, ease of use, menu etc is great, i just wish it truly hid something.
Most on the market just put a . in front of the folder, with file explorer its easily viewed.
If you are ever bored, hide some pictures you dont want anyone to see, go to a photo shop where you can use the self service machines to print photos, put your phones SD/micro SD card in there and whatever you have hidden appears lol.
When i used this other app on windows it wouldnt appear

Il give you a buzz if something comes up..In the meantime im having a bloody rough time putting a link in my sig and its not bloody working and ihave tried everything i know
I'm using this app since the beginning. It's a great app. it had already saved my life lots of time !!!
It's really great for the money !
Hidden files are renamed in .bin, and then are moved to a "secret folder" in External_sd\ProgramData\Android\Language\.fr\ or something like that.
The add-on option is a way to lock an application. When you try to launch a protected app, you've got a force close message. in this message you choose report, then you have to input your secret code, and the app is launched...really clever solution.
Developer say that his next goal is to hide some secrets contacts from address book.
Yes man, believe me, it's a great app. hidden in a audio manager application.
PS 1: I have nothing to do with the developer. I've try lot of similar apps, but this one was the best one.
The other solution was giving by Tasker and some intelligent script to lock app and hide files. But it's more more complicated ;-)
PS 2: On the bad side, developer did not update his app for a while :-(

thanks for your comments
This one encrypts files
Try Private Gallery - Hide Pictures from market.
It encrypts files with option to hide app access via phone dialer.
Tested on Dell Streak 5.
I am using this app since 4 months.. it simply does what it says.. n it was one of the best
but the last update killed 'Lock App' feature which comes with an plugin... which is one of a kind..i love the disguised force close option.
Please tell me if this feature is still working for you'll???
Hi everyone,
I've managed to hide apps but I can't unhide them? It gives me an error when trying to do so and the app appears back in the hidden list.
Anyone else experienced this and managed to fix it?
Since the location of hiden files are stored in Phone memory (\ProgramData\Android\Language\.fr) can we move to External SD Card memory?
I often confuse with the terms "SDCARD" in file explorer, in my opinion "sdcard" is the external memory card which is purchase separately...
This app appeared on my phone without being installed. What caused this???
thanks for share:good:
