I would love to have something like t h a t ! ! ! - HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps

Hello, I made a screen in Photoshop and would like to know if someone can make a skin for incomeing calls who look like that.
I removed all curtains for an advanced look.
The programm should not cause any problme with my beloved iDialer & iContact, it should be only about the incomeing calls.
What do you think?

do you mean that when a person calls you his picture will be on the entire screen?
Cause that will be amazing for sure!

Yes, right
There is not the smallest reason for HTC to program it the way they did.
That small Images are quit useless. Only 1m away, you cannot recognize the person anymore and to read the name it is also to far.
That could not be too heavy to be done for the guys on XDA.

S2U2 by AC. Give it a try.

I don't mind if someone would do that for you, but I would like to say that I like the images as they are, I don't think that they are useless. To be honest, I think that the fullscreen image looks very ugly.

As for now you can't use caller ID in S2U2 on HD2 devices because of this caller ID in WM6.5. So untill someone is making this guys idea come through or if A_C is making his S2U2 to work on WM6.5 devices we're stuck with this small contact picture.

So it is unnecessery to try S2U2, wont work? What means S2U2 by the way?

For now it is unless A_C have released something new that works on WM6.5 lockscreens...
Slide2Unlock2 where 2 is means to i think!

I found a lot of thinks with S2U2, are that different cabs or is it a big programm that contains that all?
Would like the "Slide to Unlock" .cab only.
Is it for free or does it cost something?
Thanks and regards
Hannes Slanec

I have using Inesoft Phone (it has skinable caller id)
My current skin attached as example
It can also lock screen from acident taps before answer (like slide to answer)
But it's shareware

update : slide 2 unlock version 2.21 FULLSCREEN ID
People,
Download slide2unlock version 2.21, then install BSB Tweaks and
kill all windows Mobile sliders with these tweaks.
THen configure slide to unlock to show FULLSCREEN CALLER-ID.
It works like a charm and even looks better that the drawing from the OP.
Just do it

works only in HTC devices

Homeplug is VGA aware...
I've got the homeplug working on my Universal though if you change to QVGA mode the fonts are too big. I think this is because it is VGA aware and so displays bigger fonts on VGA devices. So if you were to run it in your screens native resolution i.e. VGA it looks and works very well... Though you may have problems seeing all you other stuff . I'm fine with VGA though so it doesn't bother me at all...
hi.. can you share the file.. plz.. so we can try in our universal also..
Homeplug
Hi,
Any news here?
I tried the app as well, but it doesn't show good.
Want to fix this, do I need to enlarge the icons?
Any suggestions?
Cheers,
Leo
My Friend Laurentius you have to enlarge the layout not the icons.
I am saying that you have to open the distance between each tab so the icons can fully viewed.
Come on do it, you all know that you can.
IF you complete this work i will have a full touch contribution in my Universal and i will upload As soon as possible.

But... if you can't do it, why do you think I can

Just need to change font...
I think you're going about the problem backwards , though that said I don't know if there is an easy way of changing the font either ... Changing the size of the text windows in the app involves a lot more work than changing the font size of the numerals within those same windows.
Though since I'm very happy with Homeplug in full VGA all I can say is good luck, because I think you guys are going to need it!
Well... I noticed that this app runs great on the HTC Blue angel.
The screen of the Blue angel has the same size as the Universal.
It still doesn't run 100% on Uni.

i'm working on it.
to answer your question about blueangel, it has a 320x240 screen, lower resolution of that of universal, which is 640x480.

Post I780 today Screen

Hi All,
I780 Screen is a little bit small than other PDAs so demand appropaite choice of Pulg ins for today screen - to show more info.
Here is my screen as of now....
Something interesting: Deletion of below bar to add some more space in today scrren. Please post your today screen.
hi may i ask, what did u do to get the news? i wish to have them too.
For news I use SPB insight...
Currnetly I have downloaded relavga so today also changed a lot...I will post that soon...
But where are other I780 Users?? We wanna see how others configured their today screens so please post.
I don't really like busy today screens - so mine is pretty vanilla:
Hi where can dl this pretty vanila? Thanks.
I'm old fashioned.
Off topic: Does anyone of you use any kind of TouchFlo on i780? No 3D cubes or iPhone like apps but just scrolling any system screen using fingers (like the new Opera Mobile 9.5).

It's pretty straight forward:
1) get a HTC home plug-in of your choice - I use the HTC Home Idiamond (you can get the .cab in the hacking and development forum).
2) UITweaker - change the menu bars to black
3) Select the calender and task items in settings.
That's it!

I tried touchflo but couldn't get it to work - I use pocketCM with a black theme and that works well with my current today screen.
Some of the themes work that goes on in the hacking/development forums is amazing but it's just too much hard work for me!
Oh two other MUST-HAVE apps for i780 users -
Slide2unlock - 100X better than using the built in lock and again fits into the black and white theme I'm going for.
S2P - great media player from same developer than works well with s2unlock.
Anyone know how to remap the softkeys - I want the Calendar one to be mapped to opera.

which is the best (easiest) screen rotating app

Hi all,
after reading so many posts that i thought my head would explode I thought i would ask some advice
which is the screen rotation app of choice?
I have loaded and unloaded Gsens, Gyrator, change screen and I am now totally confused.
The simples one ( cant even remember which one) was so simple to use - open app insert stylus- done! but it didnt work on lots of progs for me.
what i rally want is a nice simple app that allows me to choose which progs ( mainly text and word etc) to have rotated.
sorry for being such a pain
the phone is totally original by the way
many thanks
This one is my favourite:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=487991
I've also tried them all, and this is the best one! Easy to configure. Lets me choose which apps to rotate. That's it!
Thanks for the reply.
after a cup of coffee I hard reset the phone and tried again:
tried g-config. Dead easy to use but i could not get it working on loads of programmes.
I then tried Gyrator which seems to work really well ( though i cant get it to work on any of the programmes that still keep START on the top of the screen - is that correct?)
maybe i will try G- config again
thanks very much and keep up the sterling work
and whats wrong with my TD2 Tools app? it does everything g-config does but has the benefit of backing up and restoring the white list!
not heard of your app sir
give me a link and i shall investigate
thanks

My today screen won't rotate (menu and contact do but the rest don't rotate)
I use a stock 6.1 rom.
Can someone help
why is it, which ever app i try (currently on flip-IT) when i rotoate the device, it starts to rotate (i.e. the windows start icon moves) ,then there is a flicker and nothing?
confused & thanks
Gyrator 2 is not difficult to use, and works great!
will Flip-it work on the Imagio. Is it very easy to use like Changescreen.

well it may not have the same user interface as the others but flipit is in my opinion the fastest rotater there is out there.
Read the small guide and remember to delete the regs regarding the normal gsensor, and the you will see that flipit - as standard - will rotate everything, if the app/page supports it.
This is the one I use, very simple!

[REQ] [TUT] S2U2 2.24 on HD2

Hey guys,
i know theres a thread about 400 Pgs. of the S2U2 software... but there is a lot of chaos in it and no clear solution for the HD2 device..
so .. i would be verryyy grateful if there is someone out there who got a solution to make S2U2 fully work on the HD2 ..
it would be sooo great..
maybe with the possibility to simply uninstall it --> that i would have the stock unlocker..

I prefere s2u2, coz my hd2 has got big issue when I make a call: due to the capacitive screen and coz of the light sensor never works properly, I lock the screen with s2u2 during call.
Yes it's a good app! It also supports custom backgrounds, clocks, sliders and languages:

If most of your contacts have a profile picture from a linked facebook account S2U2 won't display it when they call, it just shows a grey box instead.

There's my post in another s2u2 thread, for s2u2 caller id pics you need s2v pic viewer and assaign from it and you got a brilliant fs caller pic, you can use fullscreen pics well it is the best if you use fs pics at 800*480 or bigger of course maintain the ratio, because you can't zoom without d-pad sadly hd2 doesnt have one, an the latest s2v is a bit old.

Thats the pain though, as the caller ID pics aren't stored on the phone, they are just retrieved from Facebook. To use S2V you'd have to get pictures of all your contacts, save them to your phone and one by one assign them using S2V
I have just one problem, if I disable WinMo Lock for using s2u2, I cant open E-mails from sense direct.
My problem with S2U2 was the battery. It drains like mad. Normally I can do 24hrs easily without recharging, of course with normal phone and internet useage. But with S2U2 installed my battery went from 100 to 2% within 8hrs. Did I do something wrong, does anybody share this experience?
Otherwise it's a great app.

Want a big caller picture when phone calls.

Sorry for my bad english guys, I have searched and searched and not find what i want.
Does anyone know how i can make the photo much bigger when someone calls?
Like the iphone when someone with picture calls it gets fullscreen and not like the htc hd2 with a tiny pic.
Hope i could explain it as much and best as i could.
Any tip and trick would be appreciated.
Pz
download the App. S2U2. Turn on the app. and when someone calls u it will b waaaaaay bigger.
isnt there any other solution.S2U2 doesnt work flawlessly on my KS20 with wm6.5.As do phoneEX and inesoft phone.Isnt there a way just to get the caller picture bigger or even fullscreen like with phonEX without any fancy app or one that works better with wm6.5.3 ?

Well, the Diamond dialer with the Slide to Answer will give you the iphone look that you are looking for. I don't know what device you currently have, but if you have a TP, head over to the TP section and look for a rom from NRGZ. This has this feature available (I think that the app being used is PhoneCanvas but I could be wrong).
Good luck.
what is TP.Phonecanvas is only for VGA i think,i only have a QVGA device.Minimal dialer is better than standard but doesnt work correctly with smart dial.
I have the hd2 and i have tried the s2u and i dont like it. Thx anyway

TP stands for Touch Pro. There is a QVGA port of PhoneCanvas floating around in the Dev and hacking section.
yes i tested the phoneconvasif that is the minimal dialer but as i said,smart dial doesnt work with that dialer,or do you mean something else.
BTW what does phonecanvas even mean,sounds like something special or whats the point?
if youre just looking for a large contact picture when someone calls, have you looked at pocketshield?

Phonecanvas is an app (or rather a port) of a dialer.
pocketshield isnt bad but as all others my wm6.5 doesnt like it.I think either my cell is too slow or the builds arent ready for other dialers.The wm6.5 incoming call nearly always puts itself in front of the alternative one which looks odd.I ve done trying now for a while,and stick with stock,but thnaks for the tip
Hey I had the same question, but I don't want the app to have lock functions as well, as I'm using TLP already
