Have any of you seen the Finger Mouse on the Samsung Epix? That thing is the shiz. You know how our Touch Pro's have that touch-sensitive center button right... does anyone think they can either rip and port the Epix driver over to the Pro or can a smart person write up an app that does the same? That would be Awsome!!!
Finger mouse as in.....

haha i lold
AFAIK mouse pointer in Pocket PC was first bought out by HTC in their P3300 Pocket PC a.k.a HTC Artemis. The mouse is controlled by a trackball which was initially bought out on Blackberry. Now Samsung Epix seems to have a mouse pointer on screen which can be controlled by a small touchpad something similar to the ones you have on laptops.
yes.
but raphael have a touch panel around the center button.
so, that place can be useful, to make a "mouse"
The whole area downthere is actually touchsensitive
Yeah, I know, it can mean at least 2 things but I mean that the whole area under the screen i touchsensitive and not only around the button.
haha. this is the third "idea" of this.
in my post i already looked into it, but because i am new to programming on Windows mobile and also in accessing the touchpad, i was not able to call it right.
The next problem was that the SDK provided by someone, the message of a touch is only called when the window is open and in front and the demo of this sdk shows that it is also only called when you touch and release your finger of the touchpad.
Maybe this are only restrictions of the SDK programming but it seems to be not possible for my little SDK, WM, NET programming skill.
I still hope someone will make this tool or will help by / fix this SDK.
some other idea already mentioned is to use the touchpad as alternative left/right/top/bottom keypad because it is not really handy on the Touch Diamond/Touch Pro.

hi,
is there some software i can get to have a lock screen that needs my fingerprint to unlock it?
not unless you have a fingerprint reader for your phone which one do you have.
yeah a touch screen (resistive touchscreen)cant read fingerprints
it's not technically possible nor with the capacitive touchscreen
of iphones
but the sedna does have a reader, but we dont know what phone he has
anyone know a fake fingerprint sw for ppc?
I had on palmOS... awesome
got a sony experia x1. did not think it was possible but remember a ipaq had a fingerprint reader touchscreen abot 5 years ago. was wondering if it could be done through sofware on a standard touch screen
no ipaq had a fingerprint reader but it was not the screen

it's the thin line under the directional pad
you slide your finger across it
many laptop have the same system
it's not as good as the full finger print reader like this
got the ms one for my main and one of the sliding one on some laptops
the full reader is easier to get at first try
the slider ones mostly take a few slides to get it

yeah i have the line reader on my laptop. i thought the ipaq had the full reader, guess i was wrong
Hello! I have a Toshiba Portege G900 with a fingerprint scanner but it has only fingerprint launcher as built-in application and I was also wondering if there is any downloadable software for locking data using the scanner. Please say if you know any.
Hello, is this phone multitoouch?
Does it have another name as the previous one is Raphael?
thanks!
no as far as I know no htc device support multi-touch
as far as I know wm don't really support it as it require capacitive touch
rather then resistive touch which all wm devices use could be wrong though

i think youre right thats why M$ keeps saying that i would be a great feature of WM7...
ifim not mistaken apple has a patent on multitouch but i hear the touch pro now has multitouch which can only be exploited with the developer's test kit.

if apple has a patent on multitouch sounds like cheating....
M$ has one multi-touch patent, which includes gestures, so they can legally implement it in Windows 7 and Windows Mobile 7. The Touch Pro2's code name is the Rhodium.
And when you say the Raphael has multi-touch, I believe it's kind of a false multi touch. When you touch 2 points on a resistive touch screen, the phone registers the touch at the exact distance between the two points you're touching.
So what some people have started to do is include "invisible buttons" in their emulators, etc., so when you touch the up on the virtual DPAD and the "X" button, the point registers in between them, where there is an invisible button between those two points, whose action is to perform Up on the DPAD and press the "X" Button. I know it sounds confusing, but maybe this image will help.

HTC HD2 is a multitiuch cell phone fellows...
tested...
HAHAHA... Dude you just succesfully answered a post that was over a year old... Congrats =)
Hi guys,
I checked out the HTC hologram app on you tube and was very impressed..
I have a request for a similar app, might be interesting for most of us..
I had this electric glass ball which connects to my PC via USB.. when u touch on it, it gathers all the light at your finger..
I beleive most us know what I am talking about...
Can we have something similar to electric ball.. where in you can have different color rays on device screen(like hologram) and when we touch the screen, all the vibrating rays come to your finger, just like u are touching the electric ball..
It would be really great if someone can make one... I am sure this app will be unique..
Just had an idea....! Hope I was a developer..

indeed, man, it would be nice idea.
(gentle bump).
it could be square with clock(with CUSTOMIZABLE digits) inside(= nice cradle clock)
good idea
oh yes, that would be so awesome!
would be lovely (and more realistic) if it supported multitouch (for HD2) too...
If someone is making this app, plz make it compatible with Omnia i8000
Are there any developers interested in making this app...???
If some1 is trying to make.. plz let us know.. atleast we can wait...
Looks lyk all the developers are busy..
That electric ball would pretty cool on the screen!
There is now a plasma ball application
Hi there,
I've just seen the kind of plasma ball application that you are after. Unfortunately, this forum will not allow me to post links, being a newbie and all, but if you go to the modaco site I have posted a link to the program in the thread that was started there in the Pocket PC/Windows Mobile Professional (Touchscreen) -> Pocket PC Software forum.
Cheers,
David.
No 1 replied if they were making any such app...
NEways I found something similar (on XDA-Forum itself) or may be something I was actually looking for.. The Plasma Ball check the link below...
I will download the free version once I go home...
For all others who are interested in the app get it from the below link..
The Lite version is free.... so download and check..

Hi everyone, I bought Samsung Epix, which is a wonderful device, except that the optical joystick/touchpad sucks.
So, I wanted to ask if you know about software keyboard that would contain only directional arrows (as for example navigating a word or two back is a catastrophe - the touchpad reacts with delay, and it takes a lot of attempts to put the cursor where I wanted - and using it in mouse mode to click between two concrete letters is a pain too).
I created a mockup of what I would like - is there existing keyboard like this, or some lightweight skinnable one for which I could make an arrows-only skin?

Thank you!
Great idea, but it doesn't exist because the Epix and the Saga are the only phones that really need this.
FingerKeyboard skin
Some time ago, when I used FingerKeyboard 2.0, I wanted this same thing and did it by "cheating." Make made layout in another language and put only the four arrow keys that layout. If you use FingerKeyboard, doing this isn't diffficult as the skins are just text files.
If you'd like me to dig through my old files, I can look for my skin, However, I have a lot lined up as work this week and probably won't get to it until Friday.

Thanks, that shouldn't be necessary - just a tip for a concrete configurable SIP and the 'custom language' trick is enough, thank you!
I have both microsoft bluetooth connected with my nexus 9 at the same time.

The keyboard just work fine and easy to setup.
The arc touch is also easy to setup on my ... LG G3, It won't work on Nexus 9.
The mouse point can't be shown and I find it is connected as a physical keyboard.
I am on pure nexus rom and fire-ice kernel , any possible to fix it?

Have you went to "Dev options>Show pointer location" to see if it is connected but not showing up?

Same problem with on my Shield K1 running android 6.0 and the shield 1.1 software.
Arc mouse shows as connected and paired via Bluetooth but is listed as a physical keyboard rather than a pointing device.
Anybody ever get this solved? I'm trying to use my Arc w/ a Nexus 9 - no pointer.
Bluetooth kernel issue
Same goes for my Apple trackpad
https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=39665
This issue is a little more than 2 years old and has been addressed but hasn't been fixed so all left is to wait for Google to fix this.
The link I posted is for the Apple trackpad but addresses the Bluetooth issues in general regarding pointer devices hope this cleared things up.
Same issue
Same issue with Lenovo Yoga Flex and Samsung Galaxy s8, the arc touch mouse pairs but does not connect.
This may not be what anyone wants to hear, but it may just be incompatible hardware. I purchased the Arc Mouse SE a few years back and it has seen some things. I recently replaced it with the newer Arc Mouse (that has the touchpad). Decided to dedicate the SE to a Shield TV and was able to connect, but not get a response. Out of curiosity, I paired the newer mouse. It worked flawlessly. It seems the SE just isn't compatible with newer Android as a mouse.
