New User Interface

Hello,
Pointui.com has launched a new user interface, similar like iphone and its free.
Check out a detail review over here.

Nice!
Looks very promising. But I think it will be a real memory eater. Can't wait to see the first reviews.

Interface
interesting, looks very nice. apparently, they will release their first version at midnight today. can't wait 00.00 and by the way, i wish u all a happy happy new year with out beloved wizards

Check this video of it running on wizard, it works flawlessly.

It does look nice, but you realize that was a demo, right? I'd like to see a real demo with an actual running copy of it with a real finger using it. As far as I could tell, thats just a flash (or similar) example.
BTW the website (with countdown clock) is at http://there-is-no-place-like-home.com/

mfrazzz, if you want to know for sure then go and download it
It's now available.

BTW: I'll retract my above statement after watching this video:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qRw1T-N5dic&feature=user
Looks impressive as the other demo.

Thanks and it looks very slick and is very responsive. I have issues trying to setup my home location for weather though. First, I find it odd that USA is seperate from North America . Then when I select Colorado and choose a letter (C for example) it first loaded the B's. Then I exited out and came back in (as it kept showing B) and did it again. Choose C again and it loaded W's...
Still this look very impressive. Are we allowed to cook this into roms?

It's free, and I didn't see any licensing information so I don't know why not.

Hi mfrazzz, sounds like you are hitting the right of the screen in the area that activates bookmark scroll try clicking in the center or to the left.
In the future it would be great if you guys want to burn it into roms, but if I was you I would wait for a few bugs to get sorted out. We are going to be spending the next few weeks working through issues that have already been raised in our forums.

Yeah, I think my problem is I'm doing quick and light presses. I need to get the feel of this, but if I do a more firm press its selecting thing properly. So I think this is a case of user error in learning this

Yep, fully understand.
Quick question... Is there anyway to get to the Apps that are located in the Start Menu? (\Windows\Start Menu) . This seems to show apps starting at \Windows\Start Menu\Programs . So by default things like Office, Contacts, etc are not available (unless I'm missing something again).
On first blush, I'm impressed so far. Now people need to rewrite the apps underneath so they are more finger friendly too

Hi mfrazzz, try in Favorites.

Its really useful, but theres is some of the thing that is missing in it, if intigerated than it would one of the most useful program a winmo user will ever need. I will write a review on it may be tommorow check my blog.

This looks freaking sweet. There is one thing that I noticed though. Kinetic/Touch scrolling is normally done opposite in the direction of scroll so that the text/image follows the direction of your movement. This seems to bg going in the direction of scroll. Is there a setting to change this?

You can change this. Hit your settings button (upper right gear symbol) The change it to object navigation from slide naviagation)
Also for those that can't close programs. Hit the program name (of the app you have open)in the upper left, then choose force close. So far i have only seen this not work on the phone screen which you have to minimize.
I really like this interface and it's a keeper for me. The only issues i really have is #1) Reoccuring appointments do not show and #2) it defaults to outlooks e-mail instead of the account switcher. i don't use the outlook e-mail, instead i check 2 pop accounts. My work around for now is to add a shortcut to messaging to the startup and access it there.
If anyone has a work around for the above, please post it.
GREAT APP though!

Hi ROCOAFZ, version 1.01b is going to be available soon which allows for an alternative email store - you can specify a different store name and the unread email indicator is the total for all your email accounts. Won't have a screen to update it at this stage - just a registry val to set, but with a bit more time...
1.01b is going to be the first mass test of Update Manager. Man, I hope it works
Recurring appointments - on the list, but don't expect it within the next few days - we're back to day jobs as of tomorrow and presently spending time trying to tackle some of the bigger bugs. Actually, we are spending our time trying to keep up with our forum and getting no coding done
Glad you like it.

Hi everybody,
I have written a detail reveiw of pointui home here check it out.

well i just install it on my phone and i think it's a lovely app. run fairly smooth on my wizard. kinda lag on the switching of viewing mode, unlike the video. beside that i love.

Is there a way, or someone that wants to do this mod?!!!!! Notification Sound in Call

One thing I have wanted on this phone since I got it is to be able to know when a text message or other notification comes through while in a call. Like a short beep or something similar to the sound the G1 makes when the battery is low. I am not a huge coder, but love toying around with my rooted G1. Any takers? Anyone want to do this? Anyone else been wanting this??? Thanks for all who view this thread.

I think Handcent sms has this feature but we are still missing gmail and other notifications

Maybe someone can get this done, this is one of the few things that has bothered me about my g1 since I got it.

I know this isn't the place to ask, but a way to have the keyboard along with the face buttons stay lit until the keys lock would be the best thing. It's annoying to move the trackball every time to just get those buttons to light up every time.
Unless there is a way and I've just missed it every time.

i second the hancent sms. only one i know that does it and you can get rid of those annoying ass bubbles.
and, jesus people, stop with the unnecessary flame war. :/ really wtf are you guys gaining from any of it?
meltus if it does, what rom are you using? i could have sworn it was an options on cyanogens, but i can't find it anywhere it would be so i'm going to have to say its hancent sms. are you using that as your msging app?

Obviously you people aren't READING THE WHOLE THREAD.
We are aware that Handcent covers SMS/MMS notifications in voice calls, but what about gtalk, gmail, facebook, MSN, ect.
As far as I can gather, Handcent DOESN'T do this.
The OP is asking for someone to see if it's possible to modify the Phone.apk to include this. All of you "Members" and "Senior Members" need to get off your high horses, if you're true senior members (likely not the case as most of your post counts probably come from slamming people who "DO EVERYTHING WRONG!!!") remember the days when the Android section of this forum was still relatively young, everybody helped everybody, regardless of how unusual or stupid their questions seemed. These days if you're not 100% perfect in your initial post, you get slammed. Leading to more completely useless posts from all of you "Senior Members" that are taking up EVEN MORE space with useless drivel that's EVEN MORE useless than the OP.
I personally think this is a great idea, and whole heartedly support it, if I had the slightest idea how this is done, I would be on it right away.
Also, before anybody slams me for being wrong, I have never used Handcent for my SMS handler because I prefer the modified one that comes with my CM build, but if it DOES allow notifications for ALL APPS through calls, it could have saved a great deal of time to mention that.

This gets my support as well. I dont like Handcent. So if we can make it work with the standard APK, it will be awesome. I have asked around, for it to work, its not the Phone.apk that needs to be modified, its the .apk that giving out the notification that has to be modified. example is
for sms/mms, the mms.apk needs to be modified to check the phone status, and give out the correct sound notification. (not in call, use selected sound clip from external speakers; in call, use small beep sound in the ear speaker.)
same goes for gtalk,gmail,twidroid and any other apps that have notification.

Good to see some serious input here finally, depressing to know it would have to be handled by the corresponding application, being as some of them are off limits (gtalk/gmail/ect).
At least someone still has their head on straight here.

I'm sorry. I usually post something constructive, but this kind of crap makes me mad.
Why does it bother you that he had more than one question? How can you even complain about that? Uh oh, I just used 2, I probably have a "metal disorder" too, huh? You know what people accomplish by asking questions? They learn things. Yes sir, it is people like YOU, who don't ask questions or even make the slightest attempt to educate themselves, who shouldn't be "allowed to breed." When people like you breed, we get thick skulled smart-asses who think they're tough on the internet.
P.S. You used 7 extra periods that weren't needed. Your first sentence was a fragment. You used one capital letter. You used the wrong form of it's the first time. You used the wrong form of you're. You forgot a period after retard. It's supposed to be "mental" disorders. You used an ellipses incorrectly. You used "where" instead of "were."
P.P.S. His sentence wasn't even a fragment (I'm assuming you mean't "typed" instead of "type"). "I'm an idiot," says Mr. Grammer and Punctuation. There you go. Stop trying to be a hero for the board, that is the mods job. You saying "OMG RONG [email protected][email protected]!!" isn't helping a thing, considering 90% of people who post in the wrong thread just post one time. Especially when there are people before you that have pointed this out. I know it gives you an ego boost, but seriously, keep it in your pants. You are the one filling xda with garbage, not the people who have a question about a feature they would like to see implemented on their phone.
Thanks for bearing with me, everyone else.
Stefan, find something better to do than insult people in a forum. Next time you see something in the wrong place and someone has acknowledged it, I dare you to just skip over it.
I was going to delete this as well but it makes my point so much easier to make and its not a flame post or very hostile.

Obviously, you're not reading the whole thread, bro. We are putting suggestions out. So what if we miss two words? You're complaining about something that's not happening. We're still TRYING to help.
But, back on topic. Now that I know this, I support. Would be quite useful, as I have it set so apps get killed on screen off and it seems everytime I press "End" on a call, it goes blank and only thing that keeps me knowing I even have a sms is "Sms unread count" widget.

I do sometimes, especially when coordinating stuff with a few people. It will be something like talking to someone, then getting a text to update me on information to relay to the person I am talking to. Stuff like that.
Other times its just an compulsive need to reply text as soon as it comes in.
Also, another reason why you need to know if a text comes in while in a call : having 2 girlfriend. (not that I have 2 anyway)

I have the TTSnotifier app and it will announce the callers name, if they are in my contacts, from call waiting. I also have it set to notify me of incoming texts as well. Doesn't work with email though. You will need the text to speech app from the market for it to work. You can customize the announcements. Hope maybe this will help. Can't remember where I got it from but I can e-mail it to you. [email protected]

Just emailed you.... I don't care if I don't get my texts or email but the absence of "call waiting" notification has been driving me nuts... to the point of really thinking of getting rid of G1. I mean, this is so basic, we shouldn't have to find workarounds just to enable this. If that app does that... it would be like a gift from heaven.

interactive backgrounds

hey guys,
is there any way to get interactive backgrounds on hd2, like on nexus one or desire? would be really nice
or is it possible to have the nexus one background on hd2, maybe without "interactive"?
thanks in advance,

is not interactive/animated but I think this is what you want.
You can use it as a wallpaper.!

yeah thats it
but isnt it possible to have it animated or even interactive?

I think we have to wait for TouchXperience!

would be awesome

Nope. Currently, there is no app (of which I know, at least) which does what you are asking for. As someone has already stated, we`ll just have to wait for TX...

How do uninstall this? It's still on my apps list and start menu

I'm sorry but it's a pity someone posted TX. Schaps the dev of TX asked every tester to do not release his work. Don't be surprised if devs stop their hard work. So please remove the links, it's like WAREZ because not agreed by the author. And then what you got ? Complainers about "how does it work ?". Exactly the issue the private beta test avoid...

The phone, at least the T-Mobile version, comes with some animated wallpapers. Is there anyway to put something in the folder wherever they're stored and use that?
I'm not really sure what file type they are though either.

Still getting popup adds, no aps open

The latest wrinkle in this ongoing problem is ads with soundtracks! They just start going off when I'm on my phone, and if I'm in public they can be really annoying to those around me! I've read the only thread on the subject posted last year where someone suggested an ap call configAPK be found and removed. I did that but I'm stilling ads. Someone suggested hit the Recent key on the navigator in order to find the source of the ad, like what app put it out, but I didn't understand the instruction. Some members even blamed Samsung for doing the, but how would their doing this not simply drive everyone to consider an Apple phone?

It's odd that this is going on. Apps are hijacking our phones and getting away with it! Actually, I'm surprised advertisers are doing this.

Just in reference to the recent apps method you mentioned it's just another way to get into app settings through settings - apps.

I'm still working on the process in the link.
Today I hit the Recent button after a video ad and found BeiTaPlug. I planed to Google it but saw your response and had to check it. Later I saw Smart Scan there, which I know i suspicious, by virtue of having a Scan prefix. I can find the latter but not the former. It appears to be a plug in but where would I find plugins?

Is there a way to disable bubbles and re-enable chat heads for Facebook Messenger in 11?

I'm sure I'm not alone in thinking chat bubbles kind of... Suck. They're buggy, they disappear at random, they don't work properly, etc.
So I'm hoping, through rooting or something like that, there's a way to disable bubbles entirely to make Facebook Messenger think the device doesn't support them. I know for a fact that on a Note 20 Ultra running 11, you can completely disable bubbles and Messenger goes back to using chatheads - but disabling them on my Pixel 3a (Android 11) just prevents any sort of popup notification.
Is there a command, rom, Magisk, or something to do this? And I'd rather not install an old version of Messenger again since Facebook disabled the ability to share pictures and videos for old versions.

FB is malware... and that's being too kind.
I tossed FB well over a decade ago.
It's far worse today... the bubbles are the least of its issues.
You may be able to turn off the bubbles in notification setting or globally...

I wanna know the same. Bubbles are very buggy atm. Chat heads were perfect.

Mod Edit: Quote removed since post removed.
That's not in the spirit of this forum... so you "found" a toggle. Yay.
I disabled bubble notifications (hint) on Pie long ago.

No, I compiled an apk that disables the Bubble Notification API within the app, and in turn re-enables the default messenger chat heads. It's not hard to disable the bubbles, but that's not the point. Almost no one in this thread wants to disable bubble notifications because it does not bring back chat head functionality.

Yeah I realized it was about FB after I posted.
I haven't posted FB in over a decade...
in fact I stopped using it within the first month.
Fb's history speaks for itself.

Lol okay but you had already warned the guy twice about Facebook's security issues, why'd you have to say it AGAIN and word it the way you did? He obviously acknowledges now that he's basically giving away his personal information for someone else to sell, so just leave it at that.

Do you have any documentation of your fix working?

Also, I'm new here, but I think asking for donations up front is against the rules of the forum. I'd be happy to donate if the fix works though. I think I have $10-15 worth of crypto in my wallet if that works.

Honestly bro, I wouldn't update to 11 just yet. Even if the apk I provided was perfect (it's not though), I still prefer Android 10 over 11. Aside from that, there is one standing issue with the apk I compiled. Since Android 11 fixed some "issues" with the Apps Drawing Over Other Apps, there are now display issues with Messenger's chat heads, but only while in landscape mode. It works flawlessly in portrait mode, but when you enter landscape mode for some reason the heads fly off the screen to the bottom right and when you open a chat it opens it below the viewport, therefore just displaying an opaque overlay and nothing else. Very annoying for gamers who use Messenger a lot like I do, but for most it isn't a huge deal.

First of all, thanks for the detailed explanation
So the landscape mode problem you just mentioned is exactly the one I hate the most about Messenger on Android 11
I thought your apk can fix that, but turns out it couldn't
Still very appreciate your work ^^

Yeah, sorry about that man. Unfortunately, I'm not smart enough to properly decompile Messenger to change values and stuff like that. Under normal circumstances I would have done it already, but Facebook uses their own method of decompilation protection, with their own custom value types and things like that. People have tried on multiple occasions to decompile it but it's just too complicated. Not sure what they're trying to protect, to be honest. But if someone else would be willing to help me out with decompiling, I'd be glad to fix the display issues!
