App. for inverting screen - General Topics

Hi
Last time a was out driving I found out that when I placed my mobile on my mobile on the dashboard it works as a Head up display With some tweaking it works perfect as a speedometer and speed camera warning(using tom tom), but I need to find a application that can invert my display. I tried searching, but with no results. Does someone know about a application that could help me with this?

Search better.......
There are tons of these apps....You could also do that using a simple Mortscript file.... Or maybe using a particular task manager (anyone, except the winmo one, has this feature...)
Next time follow the link on my signature.....

I know there are alot apps that can rotate the screen, but I hav'nt found any that can invert it yet.

I missed something.....
I'm just curious... Why you want invert your screen?

Because when I put the mobile in the dash and the display shines in the windscreen it gets inverter. So i get a bit har to read everything backwards.

Maybe it works....

Think the OP is actually looking for something to create a mirror image of his display, as opposed to just inverting the colours.

Sounds like it yes! Someone?

Sounds like an awesome idea. I have never heard of software possible of doing this, but at the very least I understand what you mean. You want to invert the image, not the colour (text = txet) so it appears correctly in a mirror image (or a car windscreen).
I will keep an eye out, as it should be possible, though I haven't seen anything yet.

just asking, why don't you just use a windshield (or any other kind) mount for all what you want? why go into all this trouble?

Because a windshield mount is all "in your face". Using the reflection is a lot more subtle and is just plain neat.

To those who didn't understand i took som pictures today, maybe someone would take the time to make this kind of program?
The picture are a bit fuzzy because it is nearly imposible to hold the camra steady for the five seconds it takes without i tripod. There are also two reflections from the windscreen, but it is easily readable in real life!

No one knows?

i'm interested in this as well... but just don't have any knowledge on how to do this. one alternative is to perahps add a mirror somewhere to invert the screen once prior to the windshield...

Camera Vs. Picture time...

Hey xda techies,
Here's my problem; I'm not sure if it's because of WM6 or the MDA Wizard / 8125, but it takes a long time when I take pictures. What I mean is when I press the button to take the picture, there is a delay between that and taking the actual picture. Most of the time, it's a miss because the person or the actual picture I was trying to take moved!
If anyone has a configuration or a tweak to fix this, or even another picture taking program - I would really appreciate it!
Phil
Plus...
Oh and I just remembered...
Also the flash of the camera comes on pretty early. It barely gives that extra hint of glow that it's already gone. The way it is now, it's a waste of flash. Anyone know how to fix this?
Phil
my solution
this is pretty much what i did. took off my casing and drilled a hole through the flash spot. its soooooo bright now!!! it can easily light up an entire scene at least 4 to 5 feet away!!!! its an extremely bright light. people get blinded by it now up close

Holed up!
Yo Taz,
Now I wonder how the hell did you ever figure that one out! It's not everyday someone decides to just drill a hole throught their pda!!
Seriously, thanks for the heads up... What about the time delay between the button and the actual cam taking the picture??? Any info on that?
Man, the things we do to find efficient solutions...! You crackl me up!
Phil
hahaha. thanks. i wasnt sure if i should do it or not but i didnt really mind. i hated the flash being so dim it was frusterating at times. now i dont have to worry!! about the flash time i realized that the best solution was to use the Batterystatus overclock to about 247mhz and not have anything else running at all. also turn off the shutter sound and turn off the picture preview that happens after you shoot. makes things a bit quicker. my camera is really quick with pictures now. i save to my 2gb storage card!!
hope that helps. let me know how it works for you.
find the coolCam application. I had it in one ROM many months ago and it was a FAR more efficient camera app then the one that is being installed from every other app. not sure why it faded so quickly but it was a very lite version that ran very fast!
Dis someelse test it? Is it OK with all devices? Can someone send the pictures? Maybe even with before and after pictures?
THX
Okay....
Alright guys,
I downloaded Coolcam and installed it. Works pretty well and somewhat better than the cam with wm6 / 8125.
My problem is, I tried to change the program to start when I press the side cam button on the pda! It didn't figure in any of the lists! I currently have it on program files, but I just can't get to it!
Anyone has an idea, please let me know.
Phil

Fun Lights

Does anyone know of a program that's kind of like the fun lights on the motorola phones...or can someone make one i think out would be pretty cool

disco era is gone, man...
lol but it would look cool
We need to get some people working on a program like that.
is any way to emulate nokia Xpress-on Fun Shell to get something like this on air:
I remembered VJAY555 made something similar to this just for fun.
He did vjplumbum that plays a Christmas song and the leds "dance" accordingly and another one to appear like the movie "close encounters of the 3rd kind" main theme...
Both of them must be offline, because I cant find them...
With these, you probably can find a tool that make them run (they are both EXE's) as soon as the phone starts ringing. Take in mind that all these are for wm5/6.
Now, about that nokia airtexting i never even heard of, but it looks very fun... I made a small test in flash, but i cant find more technical informations about it, I need to know the timing and sizes for the display to show a message... All the gadgets I found on youtube had accelarameters, but I don't think its needed...
I'm attaching the small tests i did to appear a heart on the screen, one is sideways and both dont really work...lol

Just make a search in:
instructables
wikipedia and
google for the term:
POV (percistence of view ) *not the pr0n POV =P.*
its the basics of cinematic....
i believe that you can make it flash something like 12fps...
I did... nothing usefull came up.
Nokia-like wave messaging seems really cool, but I don't know if a phone's screen is bright enough to achieve this effect.
I can try to make a small Win Mobile utility that does this, maybe using the accelerometer, but right now I don't really have time for this.

Can someone take a good picture for the Wikipedia page?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Touch_pro
The picture is terrible right now, taken by a webcam!
Could someone with a good condition Touch Pro and an SLR camera replace that thing?
EDIT:
I mean.. compare the picture to the Xperia's
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sony_Ericsson_XPERIA_X1
Sure, I'll try and do this shortly...
Hmm, appears you have to be a bit of a fancier user to upload an image to the Wiki.
So, I took these - still not fab, but I don't have much time today, but if anyone who *can* edit the Wiki, then feel free to use them.

If you read the discussion, there was a different pic there before, but some guy changed it because it showed a customized theme.
Ideally, we should have high quality pictures of both the CDMA and GSM versions (since they look different) in the open position, preferably with stock-looking TF3D theme.
I don't want to put my Fuze up there, since it's branded and lacks the front-facing camera.

			
				
wow that's a HORRENDOUS picture. and the ratio's messed up.
xperia photo looks professionally done though :\
why not jack one from the HTC site?...oh wait they pulled them down
i did a google search and found some decent high res photos:

Sure, there are plenty of good production pictures of the Touch Pro, but do they pass Wikipedia's image "fair use" legality requirements? I don't know their rules myself, but I know that user photos tend to be allowed.
Okay it's still not changed.. Who here is able to edit the Wikipedia page? I guess one has to be a user to post the image on Wikipedia?
I believe the main problem Wikipedia has with the photos are with the contents of the screen and I've seen screens blurred before, so, from photoshoping jmbilling's photo...
and my poor attempt at removing the background (should look fine over white)

Bump.
BTW, jmbillings, if I could get your pictures in their original size, that'd be cool. You can send to [email protected]
How about these?
Sure, still need someone to post the picture though.
I see the Touch Pro article now has no picture whatsoever.. <sarcasm>great.</sarcasm>

Where do you want the picture inserted? Nevermind I don't have the rights to do it.

[REQ] tweak to disable vibration on start up

search for sometime now, could not find any leads that may shed light to this
anyone out there? I'll try searching for it in the registry, if only i know where to start
First off, I don't know why you'd even ask for this. It's a tiny burst of vibration that happens only once when you power up the device, and that's it. There's no harm in it and I can't see a genuine reason for wanting it gone since it happens so rarley.
Secondly, you can't get rid of it. It's part of the self-diagnostic that runs when you switch on the device. If you did find a way to stop it (and I'm 99.9999999999999999999% sure you won't) then the phone would probably think there was a problem and not boot.
You're gonna have to live with it mate.

I was also looking for a solution to this problem.
You asked, why one should wish to deactivate this little vibration on startup...well, quite simple:
My HD2 performs its system backups every night, while it is in its cradle beside my bed. I am using SPB Backup which does a warm reset after finishing its operation. It's really not very funny to wake up every night, only because there is this "little" vibration during the boot up process.
If you are a user of a genuine HTC ROM, there is even an additional little melody playing after vibrating, which is still more uncomfortable! Only for this reason, I just reflashed my HTC ROM back to a Vodafone ROM (which only has the vibration).
I think, it would really be a good idea, If someone found a tweak to suppress the boot up vibration!

[APP] NEW upcoming interface

Here's something I came across while I was on DeviantART website

"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",

"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

}
You see the first N1, the interface looks really good and then if you read the comments from the user, it says:
"I also added the first look at the new Deep Blue user interface that will ship in a ROM update that has yet to be decided. For those who root, watch out for this one. It will be complete and may add a few new widgets you don't get with the stock Android interface. Please read the legal note below regarding the new interface."
There is also a legal notice on this so no one can copy this work....
So what do you guys think?
EDIT: here's the link :

fwoar dude, that looks sick!
Hmm Gingerbread anyone ?
Doubt anything official would ever look like that, personally.
Really do NOT dig that dial-like theme...
I'd love to see it becoming real, but those pics are really old and still nothing....
I love the missed calls / emails / text messages...to bad he doesn't know its Sergey Brin not Bin
Don't worry Ander, your launcher still rules,
But don't sit on your laurels...

looks great. does anyone know what that clock widget on the darker version is?
Seems like the dock at the bottom is a colossal waste of screen space for the number of buttons it has.

i'm going to label it the symbian theme
You guys are hilarious! Thanks to commenting on my theme. It WAS in development for Ultimate Droid Rom but Blackdroid and I kinda parted ways on a good note. So that leaves this theme in limbo. Anyone interested in working on making it a reality? Contact me at zandog (at) gmail dot com I also have a few more themes on my smartphone design concepts at zandog.deviantart.com
wait so we can download this already? check out the download button on the side. we can download already?!
I hope you are not being serious. It's only a psd file for photoshop if anyone wants to make theme.

lol it's cool. Now if someone can actually make them really that would be just awesome. For starters I'll settle for the widget with missed calls and text count and all those goodies
lol yeah i would like that too
Is there anyway to get that red android wallpaper? looks really nice.
