[REQ] HD2 as PS3 media control - HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps

Hi guys!
As a lot of other people, I use my PS3 more as a media center / Blu-Ray player, then I'm actually playing on it. Every time I sit down to watch a movie from my media server or a BD-disk, I'm annoyed of how bad the PS3-remote looks. Especially when my beautiful HD2 is always laying next to it.
So:
I was hoping that some of you geniuses here might have the same impression as me, and see the value in a "HD2 PS3 media control"-app, which uses Bluetooth.
I would think that it only needs directional buttons for maneuvering in menus, a OK-button, the "Playstation"-button and the 4 actionbuttons; X, O, [] and /\.
With so many PS3-owners in the world, I'd guess that this application would be quite "sellable" for the developer as well
Cheers, Eirik.

Would like it =D!

HD2 as PS3 media control
Hey
Go to mobilesrc.com and try Mobile Remote. Works pretty well on my Touch Pro 2. Didn't get my HD2 in the mail yet. Might not be exactly what your looking for but it works with the PS3.

hmm.. i'm watching this thread.. this could prove to be interesting..

Hi
Mobile remote is ugly .... and send me an error :10038 (Failed to load driver)
Another idea ?
Thx

I asked the dev already, Mobile Remote does not work with HD2 bluetooth stack.

I made a little "mock-up" of how this might look, and would enable us to control most of the PS3's functions with the HD2's brilliant touch screen.
Unfortunately I was neither allowed to post the picture, the link or even put the link to the picture in a code-box :-/

Anybody? ... anything?

Its a fully funtional layer that is page 4 of swype.

I think this might already be possible.......
I remember reading about some using their hd 2 to browse photos on their ps3 so........
anyone tried gremote?

Lol, that is exactly why we're better than iPhone. They need a "guitar" to showcase what it can do. Ohh, iPhone, touch a string, and wow oooohhh Wow. I believe our Pocket PC's don't need a "guitar" to prove we're better.
*Pulls of PPC* 3G, oooohhh aahhh. GPS. oooohhh aahhhh
"Hi, I'm a mac, I can play the guitar". "Hi, I'm a boring PC, all I do is surf at HSPDA speed.
iPhone? Please!
At least we have the freedom to develop a program that will run on a PPC and we're not locked out of our OS!
Also there are cool programs like Songbook and Songsheet, great for learning, but if you want to play guitar, might I suggest, just a thought now, a GUITAR!
"Crap guys...the iPhone can do something kind of cool that we can't do. Time to belittle it".
Yeah, because us Windows Mobile users NEVER point out things that are very niche as to why our phones are as good/different/better than the iPhone.
I think its a cool app. cant' be done on the PPC though because of lack of multitouch support.
watching some PPC users reactions to iPhone stuff I'd swear they were just told they have a small :cough:.
Well, we've had this one for a while

People who play guitar actually tend to... wait for it... play REAL guitars
somewhere i see a video where a dude was using a diamond touch di debug mode, and he was using 2 fingers, so i suppose that should be doinable on winmobile too
sadly, actually i'm still waiting for the deliver of my new blackstone, so i can't try :-\

Fun Lights

Does anyone know of a program that's kind of like the fun lights on the motorola phones...or can someone make one i think out would be pretty cool

disco era is gone, man...
lol but it would look cool
We need to get some people working on a program like that.
is any way to emulate nokia Xpress-on Fun Shell to get something like this on air:
I remembered VJAY555 made something similar to this just for fun.
He did vjplumbum that plays a Christmas song and the leds "dance" accordingly and another one to appear like the movie "close encounters of the 3rd kind" main theme...
Both of them must be offline, because I cant find them...
With these, you probably can find a tool that make them run (they are both EXE's) as soon as the phone starts ringing. Take in mind that all these are for wm5/6.
Now, about that nokia airtexting i never even heard of, but it looks very fun... I made a small test in flash, but i cant find more technical informations about it, I need to know the timing and sizes for the display to show a message... All the gadgets I found on youtube had accelarameters, but I don't think its needed...
I'm attaching the small tests i did to appear a heart on the screen, one is sideways and both dont really work...lol

Just make a search in:
instructables
wikipedia and
google for the term:
POV (percistence of view ) *not the pr0n POV =P.*
its the basics of cinematic....
i believe that you can make it flash something like 12fps...
I did... nothing usefull came up.
Nokia-like wave messaging seems really cool, but I don't know if a phone's screen is bright enough to achieve this effect.
I can try to make a small Win Mobile utility that does this, maybe using the accelerometer, but right now I don't really have time for this.

Finger Mouse

Have any of you seen the Finger Mouse on the Samsung Epix? That thing is the shiz. You know how our Touch Pro's have that touch-sensitive center button right... does anyone think they can either rip and port the Epix driver over to the Pro or can a smart person write up an app that does the same? That would be Awsome!!!
Finger mouse as in.....

haha i lold
AFAIK mouse pointer in Pocket PC was first bought out by HTC in their P3300 Pocket PC a.k.a HTC Artemis. The mouse is controlled by a trackball which was initially bought out on Blackberry. Now Samsung Epix seems to have a mouse pointer on screen which can be controlled by a small touchpad something similar to the ones you have on laptops.
yes.
but raphael have a touch panel around the center button.
so, that place can be useful, to make a "mouse"
The whole area downthere is actually touchsensitive
Yeah, I know, it can mean at least 2 things but I mean that the whole area under the screen i touchsensitive and not only around the button.
haha. this is the third "idea" of this.
in my post i already looked into it, but because i am new to programming on Windows mobile and also in accessing the touchpad, i was not able to call it right.
The next problem was that the SDK provided by someone, the message of a touch is only called when the window is open and in front and the demo of this sdk shows that it is also only called when you touch and release your finger of the touchpad.
Maybe this are only restrictions of the SDK programming but it seems to be not possible for my little SDK, WM, NET programming skill.
I still hope someone will make this tool or will help by / fix this SDK.
some other idea already mentioned is to use the touchpad as alternative left/right/top/bottom keypad because it is not really handy on the Touch Diamond/Touch Pro.

Electric ball

Hi guys,
I checked out the HTC hologram app on you tube and was very impressed..
I have a request for a similar app, might be interesting for most of us..
I had this electric glass ball which connects to my PC via USB.. when u touch on it, it gathers all the light at your finger..
I beleive most us know what I am talking about...
Can we have something similar to electric ball.. where in you can have different color rays on device screen(like hologram) and when we touch the screen, all the vibrating rays come to your finger, just like u are touching the electric ball..
It would be really great if someone can make one... I am sure this app will be unique..
Just had an idea....! Hope I was a developer..

indeed, man, it would be nice idea.
(gentle bump).
it could be square with clock(with CUSTOMIZABLE digits) inside(= nice cradle clock)
good idea
oh yes, that would be so awesome!
would be lovely (and more realistic) if it supported multitouch (for HD2) too...
If someone is making this app, plz make it compatible with Omnia i8000
Are there any developers interested in making this app...???
If some1 is trying to make.. plz let us know.. atleast we can wait...
Looks lyk all the developers are busy..
That electric ball would pretty cool on the screen!
There is now a plasma ball application
Hi there,
I've just seen the kind of plasma ball application that you are after. Unfortunately, this forum will not allow me to post links, being a newbie and all, but if you go to the modaco site I have posted a link to the program in the thread that was started there in the Pocket PC/Windows Mobile Professional (Touchscreen) -> Pocket PC Software forum.
Cheers,
David.
No 1 replied if they were making any such app...
NEways I found something similar (on XDA-Forum itself) or may be something I was actually looking for.. The Plasma Ball check the link below...
I will download the free version once I go home...
For all others who are interested in the app get it from the below link..
The Lite version is free.... so download and check..

[DESKTOP MODE] gathering info about that :)

Dear All,
I bought a oneplus7 not that long ago, and I wanted to play with the so called desktop mode. Idea is, back from work, to put the phone on a dock, being able to use my tv for browsing web with a wireless keyboard/mouse, maybe watch stupid yt video etc. Replacing my old laptop for very basic tasks.
The idea is to buy this 30euros dock station so I can have a convenient way to get internet on my tv :

So before buying any hardware stuff I wanted to know if some of them already played with this mode, does it worth giving a try or is it just too early ?
thx
Nico
So I got a Oneplus 7 and currently running Android 10. I enabled the Desktop Mode in Developers and have tried it out a little bit. For me the it isn't very usable. It is stuck in a certain resolution and I want to change it but haven't figured it out. A guy (who is busy right now until the end of the month) has been working on a launcher to use called Flow Desktop found in Google Play Store. It does have some promises and would love to see his app become more than just a concept right now.

You need the secondscreen app to change the resolution.
BTW it seems that if you want to use [email protected] there's no compatible hub yet.
So i bought a simple adapter and BT keyboard

I don't need 4k. 1080p would be nice. Do you have an app to recommend?
I've got no recommendation, Desktop Mode community is not really active for the moment. (Or a least it's just the beginning)
Here's a little something:

There is a comment about OP7Pro in the post:
"I just received my NexDock, and video works fine following above instructions. I can't figure out how to make keyboard/touchscreen work with my OP7T though. Keyboard/touchscreen work fine with a raspberry pi.
Any ideas?"
With no responses. Sad.
Anyone able and willing to create a modified version of the OnePlus Launcher with the following code implemented?
