Hi everyone, 1st post
I have a Q 9h which is a very problematic smartphone when using software made for portrait screens and games. Garbled screen or incomplete display is common. I've read that screen rotation and correct GAPI implementation would increase compatibility a lot.
With lack of screen rotation, software made for 240x320 smartphones or PocketPC doesn't work properly. The best I could do was changing DPI:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\Display\dpi]
"LogicalPixelsX"=dword:00000060
"LogicalPixelsY"=dword:00000060
After changing 131 to 96 fits a lot more on the screen. Then I decreased font size too and played with a virtual cursor utility. But it's somewhat half-assed.
The other problem can be seen here:

This explains what I mean: http://www.modaco.com/content/q-q-m...-the-motorola-q-what-developers-need-to-know/
I've read 50+ forum threads by now, downloaded software kits and source code, even searched hacking tools. I've downloaded multiple versions of gx.dll and the source code and tried to recompile it. I've tried whatever I remember in almost a week. I've downloaded 20+ emulators (sometimes multiple versions) and I only found 3 that work. Then it happens in native games too. The problem may be related with PowerVR drivers either.
Honestly I'm exhausted and getting nowhere, please help. Cheers and thanks for reading.

Hello,
does anyone know a software that can mirror my devices screen?
Yesterday evening, I drove around but forgot to take the holder for my PPC with me. So I just put it under the front window. An surprisingly I could read the screen just fine. Just like an Head Up Display. The only was that it was mirrored by the front window. So I wonder about if there is a software that could mirror my screen, so that the image in the window is just fine.
With this, I can have my navigation without having the PPC stick in the holder.
It would be great, if I can map that software to a hardware button, to switch it on after typing in the destination (which would be an bit difficult mirrored)
Can someone help me?
oixio
PS: I hope you understand me. I'm from germany and sometimes I do not find the right words to say what I want.
Yes, i'm also using my ppc for hud a long time ago, but i haven't found a program to do that.
Can anyone help?
Have a look at tchart speed sentry http://www.tchartdev.com/ this has a HUD mode but it doesnt display maps just speed heading etc. I find the double reflections from the automotive glass a major distraction - but see what you think - Mike
Thanks Mike. I'll give it a try.
If you find anything else post it here...

Since Gryator now supports the Raphael properly, as well as the Diamond, I thaught I would just spread the word, as i've seen some questions about screen rotation in these forums when i've had a brief look around.

[size=+2]Now supports ALL HTC Diamond/HTC Diamond Pro variants![/size]
Gyrator has an advanced graphical configuration interface which can be used to create
thousands of combinations of events to suit every users needs. Windows can be excluded
from all events, or only some of them. Customisable sound events can be triggered, and
the device can be made to vibrate for any event. The keypad can be locked, the screen
can be turned off, or the entire device can be instructed to suspend.
There's alot more information, too much to display here, along with advanced information
and guides on the project website which can be found at: http://gyrator.brins0.net

I've had quite a bit of experience with these kinds of devices so it was fairly easy to get it rooted, hacked, optimized for best performance and working with Android Market.
...but optimized or no, it's still a low-spec device (256MB RAM, I'm quite sure the processor is below 600mHz... no 2D or 3D acceleration, 800x480 display), and I'm fine with that because I only got it because paying $160 for a Kindle that just reads books and nothing else seemed kinda retarded... especially when Android has a Kindle app.
Anyway, the keyboard (standard virtual keyboard) is actually the problem I've been having here. If I try to type the speed I'm used to typing, the device will skip strokes because it's not fast enough to keep up with me, and has all this predictive stuff+key enlargement effects slowing it down (of course, I tried the obvious solutions of disabling everything I can in Keyboard settings... still slow).
Are there any bare-bones keyboard apps with no added "under the hood" functions that you guys know of?
try this link..
scroll at the middle of the page.. u will see a download option.. download those keyboard apps.. it can also run or other devices besides htc.. download your correct resolution keyboard (download all and see which works best for you)
you will download a zip file.. install the two apk's...

GOOD DAY
Good afternoon, community!
Some time ago I started to think about mobile devices with full keyboards - but all what I found were tablets like 2 in 1 and they still didn’t looked good enough. I remembered my Nokias 9 series with beautiful S80 on board, what I have used to write course assignment at Uni, to write job applications, etc. By the same time I’ve been working in retail and used to sell this kind of devices - as well as legends like Qtec 9000. People loved it. So, I’ve decided to move forward!
I have created a concept of smartphone in notebook form-factor:
{
"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"
}
3d model can viewed here https://skfb.ly/RHDK
Inspired by Psion 5 series, so it would have a proper QWERTY, and as Nokia 9 series, it would have 2 screens - inside and outside.
According to concept, it should work on modified version of android with access to linux apps, with factory root access and open boot loader for community ROMs.
I have contacted some ODM factories to get estimation for production, and got some advice on cost reduction, to edit concept - for available mainboard and screens - FHD, because its too expensive to produce specific ones.
So, if there is anyone who is interested in such product - you are very welcome leave your suggestions, ideas and comments!
There is a massive work still to be done before I would go for crowdfunding, so any help would be appreciated!
What type of keyboard would prefferable, laptop type, when screen is on the lid, or sliding out? Or anything else?
Hello! This post goes into General since I haven't gotten up to the post count necessary for the app-development forums.
This post has also been posted on Reddit , but I was suggested to go here instead.
New to developing in Android here. I'm trying to work out best practices and discuss design-principles to make the UI shown in the image here:
{
"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"
}
It is an infotainment UI possibly for a car where you have several elements with diffrent functionatlity.
The navigation part should be updated continously, the mediapart should be able to scroll horizontally through albums with animation etc.
There are some things I would like the UI to handle:
* I would really like this UI to be dynamicly sized depending on Screensize. (But if it is not possible I would like to discuss it)
* I want to seperate code for each element.
Last I dabbled with Android it was through "Fragments". I get the general sense that Fragments have been faced out
but I cant get a clear picture of what it got replaced with.
I guess what I would humbly like to have a discussion about is , how the wonderful Android Developers of XDA
would go about designing something like this?
Thank you for your time!
