A good friend of mine - Bernd M. Walter - just released ZOOOMER for the HTC HD2.

}
What does this app do?
Zooomer enables "pinch to zoom" in the programs you want. The software scans all .exe on the device. Just select the app you want to bee zoom enabled and perform a softreset - here you go: the exe is enabled for pinch to zoom! Currently only user installed (and some few built in) applications can be "zooom-enabled".
Screenshots and the download (CAB) can be found here (website is german but the app itself is english): http://www.mobilitynews.net/?p=8295 Please do not add ANY MIRRORS! This app may only be distributed via mobilitynews.net! THANKS!
If you find this software useful feel free to click the "donate" button within the software - thanks in advance! The author is not responsible for any damages on your device! The worst thing that could happen is that you have to do a hardreset
Goal: the developer of this tool needs an own HD2 for further development - we guess that more "zoooming" is possible on the HD2
Downloads: +18000
Donations so far (will add names here):

A BIG THANK YOU TO ALL DONATORS WHO KEEP THIS PROJECT ALIVE!

Strange. How many exe files do you have on the SD card?

works fine here - may take a while if you have many apps installed. does anybody else have this issue?

First thing I tried it one was internet explorer, and it didn't work.
I scanned the windows folder and checked iexplore.exe, did a soft reset, then tried it. No luck. I've checked in the app, and iexplore.exe is still checked, but it hasn't worked.
Anyone have any clue about this? (I've not tried it with anything else yet!)

This software is only working with installed .exe and not with system programs. IE6 itself has a built in zoom funktion, when you click on the magnifying glass

same with facebook.exe Didnt work but much of what i have checked does work. In my opinion, even if half the exe's worked its an awesome program. Nice work!! Now we have more "multitouch" than apple hahahaha

Okay, thanks.
I obviously knew about the native zoom in IE, but wanted pinch & zoom functionality. Guess it's not this program that I want after all.
Thanks anyway.

As Facebook comes preinstalled it doens't work
Tried it with many apps (where I found it somewhat useful) like iGO8 or Resco Explorer and it works like a charm

This looks like an awesome program. Maybe the creator will look into pre-installed apps working with it also?
I will give this a try when my HD2 arrives. Looks set to be a permanent addition to my apps.

The creator will do when he can afford a HD2 That's why there's a donate button in the program I was his one and only betatester

I have touch HD with Leo latest ROM.
Is there a chance to prepare this great software for HD which doesn't have capacitive display?
Basically instead of zooming using 2 fingers have an option to zoom by zoombar or double tapping on the screen.
thanks for your thoughts...

unfortunatly not. this app enables pinch to zoom (which is in the HD2) for installed apps. the HD doesn't have pinch to zoom

Awesome. Sounds good mate.

I tried it on TomTom 7 and it worked, but not quite.
It only enabled the pseudo-zoom, where you zoom in on the screen and a thumbnail appears in the bottom right corner to pan around.
TomTom has its own zoom functionality; it would be better if that could be controlled by 'pinching'.

This is what "Zooomer" should do - in this very first version. There are some investigations to get apps work like you want TT to do but first the developer needs his own HD2 - development can be somewhat tricky when you don't own the device Stay tuned and donate a coffee for the guy

Oh, ok then. Sorry.
I think enabling the 'real' zoom mode must be done in 'HKLM/Software/HTC/Smarttouch'.

We noticed this already but all efforts didn't work (until now) - seems to be not that easy

I'm experiencing that right now... trying to add TomTom, but no luck yet. Hm. More difficult than I thought.

I've got the new version on my Samsung i730 (with WM5) and it works great, however . . . as with the WM2003 version, the vibrate function does not work. Other i730 users reported this as well on the old version.
David
I am glad to hear that you are happy with the product.
Unfortunately, we did not have access to every WM device out there
And anyhow, Samsung never actually published the API to vibrate the device, so this is probably the problem you experience.
If someone knows how, we will be more then happy to add that support to EZdial.
Regards,
Rave
great software guys. ive been using your products since the first phoneplus and this one beats them all.
I am using an ASUS P525 which i have bought in taiwan and i works just wonderfully with the built in num pad KB.
Thanks.
Well, I installed this liking that Picture dial screen ,but I am using the Eten dialer cab with paulya skin....could not get the contact dial to work. and using the default skin...was too big and couldn't get to the backspace to clear so tried the vertical, but it would only show one button instead of three for a match...will this just not work for those of us who have a different skin?
thanks
Hi MDANavymom,
Well the software was not intended originally for ETEN since the dialer is very much different from the default one. But I guess it is working and some quick guy from Israel adjusted the skin so you can try it out.
Link to skin:
http://rapidshare.de/files/23936966/EZDial_Eten_Grey.rar.html
Let me know if that helps, so we could upload the skin to our site.
Thanks,
Micha
Hi Michar,
Thanks for informing. The software looks great. But just a question before I install the trial version.
Will this work with the PPC in landscape mode. I am asking this because I have an I-Mate Jasjar and mostly I keep in the laptop mode which means the screen is in landscape mode. Some times back I loaded the phoneplus II application and it did not work in the landscape mode as it would hide the bottom most row of buttons. And what about Phoneplus III for WM5 does this work in landscape mode.
I shall be obliged if you can provide us with this information
Regards
The software os designed to work with every resultion and every orientatin. Meaning it will work in QVGA, VGA and square in protrait and landspace.
It only requires the proper skin to be used.
The release comes ready with QVGA portraint, landcsape and square and was tested successfully on Wizard in supoprted modes.
I will publich some VGA skins ofr the JJ later today that will work fine for you.
Stay tuned.

Ok, installed the skin and it's alittle better, but not quite there....also the photo dialer still does not work...how do I get this to work. I am hoping I can get it to work so I don't lose the great Eten dialer and skins that I have.
Thank
Teresa
Can you please specify what excatcly is not working in teh picture dial?
If you go to the install directory i.e \Program Files\EZdial\ and launch PictureDial.exe directly - does it work then?
Thanks,

If I launch directly by going into \Program Files\EZDial\PictureDial.exe, yes it does launch, but when I am in the phone and press up on d-pad for speed dial...I get the default speed dial screen.
Thanks

This is because the ETEN dialer uses the DPAD up for it's own use.
Unfortunately, I am not sure there is anything we can do here.
If we could add that to the menu would that be helpfull for you? Is that something that you would use? i.e right softkey and then - picture dial?

I don't really use the Left soft key in phone which is set for Contacts...but am wondering if I can somehow manage to get Smartkey to open the photo dialer from withing the phone...let me check on that otherwise will have to try and get the left soft key in phone program to open photo dialer.
Sorry for being such a pest.
Thanks
Teresa
Hi Michar,
Thanks for your very prompt response regarding my query on screen orientation and working of Ezdial.
Just one more thing does your latest WM5 compatible version of PhonePlus III also work in landscape mode.
Sorry for repeatedly asking you these questions but you know I sort of don't like installing and uninstalling software pn my phone and therefore as far as possible I try to confirm what I want.
Hope to receive your kind response on this.
Regards
Sorry to say that PhonePlus will not support Landscape mode.
And no problem with bothering me, this is what the forum is all about.
We can use that to better the product for everyone's benefit.
So keep the feedback coming...
very very recommended! fast load, integrated perfectly into the wm5 dialers and skins, i have not found any bug yet.. try it guys!
After choosing the contact and tapping 'sms' to send a message..the messaging app loads very slowly. Not sure whether its some software conflict or EZDial has problems calling up the internal messaging app.
Btw..i'm using ipaq rw6828.

Nice skin!
You are welcomed to send me the skin and recieve a free license!
Regarding the slow opening of messaging application I think this is a problem of WM5.
What I have done is that I use PocketPlus as my task manager. Within pocketplus I have set the messaging application amongst the exception list so that it does not close when I press the X button but only minimizes. While this takes up some RAM but on the other hand the messaging application responds almost immediately.
Hope this helps

Doesn't the patched version (from Jade) not display certain items on the Home tab? I noticed on the screenshots provided that it shows quite a bit of detail on the Home tab with the original version, but hearing reports that with the patched version it does not?
Thanks guys. I will try the patched version as suggested. I will unclear why there was a 6.1 and a 6.5 version but no worries.
What the hell :S, ive installed ezinput from the mega, then it asks me to restart, and now my phone hangs at the radio initalization screen and it won't boot into windows mobile anymore :S, now I have to Hard reset my device. So let this be a warning for all of you

The warning is that this is all brand new software from a phone that isn't even out yet , posted so that people can try it out on devices that it was not even meant for.
C'mon use your head . What were you expecting ? WM 7 from Microsoft.? If you are going to hang around here, Backup...backup.......backup everyday and be prepared to hard reset anytime and always. Or else don't try beta software that is meant for another phone. Simple
By the way, the new Manila works great on my phone, except for the weather tab, ( doesn't work at all ) as far as I can see, it is just a cosmetic upgrade ( new theme that's all ) and not worth the effort.
My 2 cents,
Im just telling everyone about my experience of this software, I'm not asking for an opinion. Its just an warning and nothing else. Im not expecting anything.
The packages have just leaked around so they are expected to have errors. I tried this bunch today and have Manilla, EZ Input, Menu Enhancement (pretty good) and Notification Enhancement run smoothly. However, until now, I still can't get the dependencies of Manilla (the remain only need Shared and Framework, I think).
Album and Audio Manager run ridiculously .
P/S: I cooked into ROM.

I was merely pointing out to everyone ,that if you are going to experiment with software and packages from another phone, then don't be shocked and irritated when it crashes your phone.
lol, looks like someone forget "use at your own risk". I normally stuck at boot screen of windows when cooking. Be patience
sorry for DP.
I tried Camera package lonely, it acted nothing. However, when I cook both 5.04 and this new version of camera, I got new version worked.
New version take picture really fast but the screen preview is set to highest zoom level by default. Maybe some dlls from 5.0.4 do the trick.
Just let you guys know this

Latest Flash Player and X2 panels

Does anyone has the latest Flash Player
Coz I was trying to get the X2 Panel running on my HD2,
and most of the panels are working fine apart the city and growing plant,
I've also find out that they are both SWG files which mean a normal flash player would be able to run them
I've installed the flash player 7 and the flash lite 3.1 but still they are not working
those SWG files run fine on my PC so they aren't corrupted.
anyone can help?

Do you have the install for X2 Panels? if so where can i DL? if you go search Adobe Flash Player PPC on google you will get it!!

tried the adobe flash player 7 for ppc, but the two panels mentioned above still refuse to work.
i d/l the panels from a Chinese websites and total size of all required softwares is over 45 MB. So if MG you want it, i can only send it to you via MSN.

i found the panels on the htcpedia site
it worked for my HD2 only with the wwe rom (not on the dutch)
it would work on other roms if u change some linking names in the files

Hi, maybe this is too much too ask but could you post some pics of the panel screen running on the HD2 or maybe a video? it sounds awesome!
Found that my x2 panel version seems useless here as it is a Chinese version......

Hi, I don't think its the problem of roms
as i have tried WWE, UK T mobile, HK CSL and many other roms but yet,
when i run the pixel city night and growing panel, it pops up with the same error: unable to create player
So i think its the problem of the flash player
could you tell me how do you get your panels working on your HD2?

Same problem, downloaded the rar from htcpedia but the graphics heavy panels, namely pixel city night and growing arent working. They produce an error every time.
Nice to have the tiles, i use it as an rss reader and to show off lol.
Ok so i got it to work *turned out i had to change the program files folder name..* but i cant get anything except the tiles panel *wich actually is pretty cool* to work because my device has no more memory left!
I also cant seem to install the other panels on my memory stick.
It runs smooth and looks pretty cool i'll admit but they will have to improve it some more till the point that all the panels work, then we'll have something cool to play *and showoff * with haha
Hi,
I installed this yesterday and played with it, it really doesnt do anything useful!! After the 10 cab install i was hoping for something great!!

Installed.
Sorry, I don't like it compared to the official "2577" folder I had previously on my HD2.
This version is less complete. It does not include the useful "Quick Menu" for instance....
I think it's actually an old version. Isn't it?
Thanks for the heads up!

The last version (once updated via CoPilot Central) was 8.0.0.557 which suggests that this .659 version is newer, not older I think.
Actually it's the old interface. The one I had cooked in when I bought my HD2.
Since Copilot has totally revamped the interface, including a better menu and also a convenient quick menu which is launched at start up.
the version posted in this thread misses many features. So it is maybe a new version for HD2, but i is old compared to the regular version available on ALK website.
No comparison.
You will find that the quick menu has only been removed as it conflicted with the Navigation Panel and other features on the HD2.
I use the Navi Panel, and before if you clicked HOME on it, it would open Copilot, but thats it. It would stop on the quick menu.
Now it loads up your home favourite, so you can just click go.
ALSO, it now works with Footprints, so you can click on the footprint coordinates and it will give you directions to it. Again, this didnt work before.
Finally, Device screen orientations now works. Before I had to set it, now it rotates to either portrait or landscape.
These are all things that didnt work for ME before.
So in all, there are a few fixes there. I also prefer the black menu, suits the HD2 more.
Thank you for these clarifications.
Never had any issue with the regular version
Text to Speech
Can anyone confirm if Text to Speech and Traffic now work with this version?
Actually, I noticed a bug with this update.
It switches on automatically the bluetooth (and of course doesn't turn it off when I leave Copilot).
Anyone else noticed it?
I spoke to ALK support and they said that the HD2 needs it's own specific update to make TTS and Traffic work.
I am hoping this is the update, but as I'm not due to drive anywhere over the next few days it would be great if someone could confirm it works.
I'll also ask ALK if this is the update they were talking about.
Many thank for the info JetMouse.
I heard that on the Iphone version the TTS was not very good, and also that you have to select a male voice to have it working (don't remember the name)...
Will try tomorrow.
Please, regarding the bluetooth, anyone also has the same problem as me (automatic switch on)?
Thanks
Just had a reply from ALK:
"This version should indeed allow you to use TTS and the Premium Services".
Will be interesting to see if it's any good!
Thanks for the update, tried it and didn't like it.
Was using the latest standard v620 one, TTS and Premium Live Services work great as it does on this current one, but I hate the black theme and I really miss the startup screen which asks me what to do.
Plus I found it to be buggy, tends to randomly crash during startup which the official standard one does not and I found the HD2 version to have very sluggish menu transitions while the standard blue themed one runs silky smooth.

I agree with this. Did not like this HD2 version neither.
The interface of the latest standard one is indeed really better....
Also I found some bugs in this new HD2 version (for instance the "More Options" button, which does not work).
Update successfull,everything works fine .

Don't know if its an older version or not, it seems to include more voicers, and I prefer the colour of it, dunno how you turn off the start up voice which it says u can...

To do this go into the More Settings and then click on Sound. You should see a tick box where you can now turn off the start up sound and even the button sounds.

[App][2.3+] Portrait Lens: Stand Out!

Portrait Lens for Android Creates DSLR Focus Effect in Flat Photos
What’s the difference between a snap taken with a phone’s camera and a photograph made with a professional lens? It’s the DSLR focus effect when the important object is focused on and the background is blurred. It makes a photo look beautiful and natural. A new photo manipulation app called Portrait Lens lets you create the DSLR focus effect in photos that you have taken with the mobile phone’s camera.
Here’s how you can create the DSLR focus effect. To begin, take a snap or select a photo from the gallery. The next step is to create a mask by dragging your finger around the area you want to focus on and the background you want to blur out. No matter how complex the shapes of an object could be, the application recognizes the focus area and applies the effect. It also uses a soft finish to incorporate the blur into the photo without making it look sloppy. Once done, you can save the output photo in the desired resolution (up to 3 megapixels). If necessary, you can change settings such as sharpness/blurring and saturation separately for the background and subject.
Effects (separately for the background and foreground):
- brightness, hue, and saturation;
- sharpen and blur;
- reduce noise;
- pencil sketch.
Effects for the background:
- motion blur (value and angle).
Effects for the original image:
- auto levels;
- auto tone.

Installed it to try it.I started the quick tutorial that appears when you first run it. It doesn't get past this screen. None of the buttons work to advance the tutorial.
If I press back, I can use the application normally. But you might need to look at fixing the tutorial getting stuck. Unless that's all there is?
Works fine for me, including tutorial.
Tutorial and integration with the camera and gallery is actually quite well polished
Crashing on 4.4 nexus 4 after took a picture or open one from gallery

I was just on Google+ discussing apps that create effects and whether they are good or bad for the photography industry.
That is another topic in itself but then I saw a post for this. I think this is a very promising app. Going to give it a test drive now.

Nice app. It can be a bit confusing at first, but it's a nice idea. Looking forward to future updates.

Yes, this version works.
Was able to take the picture, although when I tried to define the area I had to use two fingers on the screen instead of one, was not able to apply any effects, but was able to save.
