working iphone slide lock and mp3 scroller for WM5???

Check this out... http://techdigest.tv/2007/02/watch_the_iphon.html The working slide lock and scrolling mp3 library is cool. Wouldn't mind getting ahold of that software.
oh my god
how do you do the unlock scroll button. i cant figure it out
iphone who what where........haha this is great. oh this gonna be great if they perfect that scrolling feature.
I just want the locker...
how do we do this. and how to get the slide to work. enlighten us or me.
im using the meizu theme which is better that the iphone theme. the wishbar skin is very accurate with the signal strength plus it kicks ass on my 8525
No idea how he did either one. Perhaps it's flash based.
Slider lock
Guys,
He's using something called,
PPL1.20. PPL can be downloaded for free from http://arianesoft.ca
I installed this, but have no clue on how to use it!!!

Any help here?
The video demo is really impressive...
I hope he'l sheare his develpment
To be honest I dont find faking the iPhone very exciting. However many concept in the interface are worth having (Like the sliding lock, the big icons "a la" claunch, etc...
What would be great is use what he developped and then configure our own icons, background, etc... That do not have to be Apple's one (Yes Apple's oens look good but sooner or later we'll get tired of them...)
Kind of a way to have the best of both worlds
+1 that theme is unreal.

It requires programming skills
Basically if what the video shows is tue he did quite a good programming job there (Actually PPL seems ike an interesting tool)
slider
OK,
Anyone willing to try reverse engineering an actual slider lock with this program mentioned above?
hell if i can emulate the iphone on my 8525 why get the iphone. oh 4gb memory, 4gb memory cards are already out. remember we can add third party apps.
but hey its still a hot phone. but check out the meizu iphone copy lol.
i know i can get the iphone for $350 when it comes out though.

That would defiantly be cool. I would even host the download on our web servers to avoid issues...
hey send to me if someone makes it. i dont mind being a guinea pig.
i have a wizard and the hermes
Ouch
The account of the guy has been suspended...
I guess that the host doesnt want troubles with Apple (+ probably he had a huge bandwith consumption...)
Obviously it's "programmable" and he seems to have it done pertty nicely
The whole point now is to have him share his development (Too much work to start this from scratch...)
His site is back up
However he is staying mute... No answer on his blog when you post a message..

hey people! here is the new updated slider!
it supports:
* Lock the Pocket PC keyboard inputs - NEW!
* fullscreen without taskbar
* 12 hour support (like “10:22 AM”) - FIXED
* highlighting “slide to unlock” text
* english dates (like “saturday, march 14″)
* error sound plays when tapping anywhere except slider button
* opening sound plays when slider align to right (3 second)
i’m trying to get load external image to background.. it works in flash test file but it not works after the compiled exe file..

[REQ] Coverflow for contacts

Hi
I used this app on winmo today sceen...
is thee any developper vwho'd like to dev one similar manila finger friendly style?
a fullscreen coverflow would be much appriciated...
anybody feeling like it ?
http://www.cnetx.com/products/contact/
that would be cool...
do it a bit like the media player style where u go into contacts as normal but when you turn the phone on the side it looks like album cover flow...
nice idea man
JR
Well i'm note able to do it myself
I dont know how to dev for winmo devices
nobody interested in developping this ? really?
Wasn't there a flow idea on one of the HTC, or was it Xperia? where you had a top to bottom flow with contact pictures?
either way I think this would be more useful than a set amount of quick contacts imho.
I would develop it, but I have trouble stopping chocolate from melting, let alone coding

Android lacks consistency (widgets,apps, copy and paste)

Right now what android lacks is consistency is not so hard to fiz i dont know what's taken google so long , i think they should:
1.Force developers to build widgets that MATCH android's color scheme , the facebook/twitter widgets for example look HORRIBLE , winamp's widget doesnt look so bad but it would be nice if it'd match the black on the notification bar
2.Stick with ONE way to copy/paste and text edition , why the hell would they make one way in sms, another in the browser and another one on the gmail app?
3.Force manufacturers to stop using skins ala windows phone 7 , let them add widgets, music apps, twitter/facebook apps but stick with the stock ui, notification bar, and icons , gingerbread made android decent looking so there's no excuse
I know android is supossed to be open but samsung and motorola should be arrested for the hideous skins , my god touchwiz is atrocious
Yes, lets lock it down. Then you can have windows phone 7's ugly sister -_-
The more i think about it the more annoyed i am about the fragmentation issue with Android. I agree with the OP that there needs to be more consistency across the platform.

[Q] New to Android (from iOS)...advice with notifications and status bar

I just got a Samsung S4 (Verizon) because I was tired of Apple's stagnant OS and tiny screens. And I'm a tinkerer, so I'm loving (sort of) the endless ability to change and modify just about everything. And LOVE the big screen (and I have no problem whatsoever putting it in my pocket or using it one-handed...).
I'm encountering a couple of Android frustrations and wondering if anyone can either confirm, "yep, that's how it works", or point me to an app/widget/utility that "fixes" what I'm encountering.
Thanks in advance for your advice.
Notifications and status bar: I have to say I'm missing Apple's red badges that easily call attention to new emails, facebook posts, text messages, etc). I understand that on Android, all notifications show up as those little teeny, tiny white icons in the status bar, amongst the sea of other little white icons (wifi, gps, gestures, bluetooth, etc), making it not always obvious at a quick glance what's new.
I understand swiping down gives me the list of all notifications. But strangely, for such a customizable interface, evidently you have little control over the appearance and order of what's there. For instance, the "ongoing" notifications of WiFi connected shows up at the top, which I dont want to know about at all (along with those from other apps that merely announce the app is working, such as Juice Defender). And others follow in a long list with no particular organization or visual distinction.
I have played with the app SuperStatus Bar to reduce the status bar clutter, but it grinds things to a halt and takes over the notification panel without improving it. I've looked for widgets that show email, sms, etc badges but most are ugly (like most of the email widgets that come with the popular email apps like K-9, Aquamail, etc) or don't function consistently (like Notifier Widget for Facebook).
So, any suggestions or apps that help with this? And thanks to all who have read this all the way to the bottom...
Sorry to know your move to Android wasn't too smooth
I'd recommend you try Floating Notifications once it comes out of beta, holds a bit of promise
You'd get notifications from apps you choose as little floating bubbles.
It isn't too smooth now though.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2263987
Apart from that, getting the little wifi icons and bluetooth icons are pretty standard, and if there is a way to remove them, I'm not aware of it.
Also, you could use an app like light flow to make the notification light display a color of your choice based on the notification, it'd let you know exactly what notification you have before you turn the screen on.
I hope I helped

Thanks for your suggestions!
I've been using Notify+ which I like for notifications. The status bar still looks like a mess to me, but I'm sure I'll survive it.
I'm actually starting to get used to the Android way of things and am feeling much better. Loving the bigger screen (Apple is loosing the game in this regard) and the customizability (although this is a double sword when you have some OCD tendencies...).
Sort of wish I'd held out for the Verizon HTC One, rather than the S4. the S4 is great, but I'm finding most of its much-touted whiz-bang features (air gestures and motions) to be gimmicky, buggy, and available in too-few apps).
But all in all, having fun with my new phone!
Thanks again for your suggestions.

Dev Needed. (Simple App Request)

Hi I'm looking for a simple app to be developed. I don't know much about coding but I would assume it would be fairly easy to put together for someone who knows what their doing...
My Request: When you recieve a notification on the watch you get an orange dot as a notification reminder on your watch face. I would like the option to customize this. Colour, shapes etc... I hate having the orange dot and would like to be able to pick the colour to show... Shapes etc would be extra but figured it would be neat to add although the ability to change the colour is really what I desire.
If anyone is willing to develop this I would be so grateful and thankful.
Bump.

This cannot be done by application. ROM files must be modified.
That's disappointing.
