I must say.
I love you.
Tried it and downloads fine (as if verification was needed)
Think I'll leave updating my phone until JF's picked it apart, though
Haha no problem! I've been searching about for a while trying to find evidence of the new update so thought I'd be useful now I've actually got it
To be honest, apart from support for paid apps in the Market, I can't really see many differences...
Excellent, good to see someone caught it early. I'll hang fire for now until someones give it a good once over.
I haven't heard much about it but I hope the radio update it includes is the same one that seems to increase battery life in RC33. Can say I'd enjoy that.

Interestingly (annoyingly), Maps is now 3.0 but there's no sign of Latitude...
latitude is present in rc9 (uk).
Voice search is not present.

i've not noticed any real difference in anything to be honest!
does anyone know how to solve the https issue?

I have latitude and https is working fine.
Maybe because I made a "fresh install":
jf1.41 -> rc8 (dreaimg.nbh) -> rc9
hmmm, I may try a wipe and install....see what happens.
Surely we shouldn't have to go through that process to get new features from an update...?
I wouldn't have thought so...but you never know!

I just installed HiDialer, and it's something I've been looking for for a LONG time, but do you guys know what the two services running in the background are? One says "remote" and it makes me a bit uneasy.
Just installed HiDialer 1.50 on my rooted stock N1, gives me FC as soon as I try to search for a contact by pressing the key pad.
Also, it does not show contact images pulled from Facebook, only "local" images...

HiDialer is amazing, thanks for letting us know. By the way, I'm using 1.5 with no issues. I suggest uninstalling and reinstalling it .
Anyone knows the author/contact of HiDialer? I'd like to contact him for some additional functions. It'd be good if it's open-sourced.

Did you know that HiDialer doesn't have a single instance, it create multiple instances in the memory - this consumes useless RAM.
I strongly suggest everyone to use SpeechDial from The Market.
Try SpellDial from the market. Quick. Easy.

SlideIT is always placing a space between words or, more accurate, in front of all words. Only the first word in a text gets away without a space before it. But, if I write the first word in a text, delete it to replace it with another word, it will create a space and the word will be all small letters!
Example:
Hi it's me!
(now, if i want to replace the word "Hi" with "Hello", I'll go back, delete that word only, and it turns out like this:
<space>hello it's me!
(a space in front of the first word, and its all small letters)
Also, in my language (norwegian) there is a lot of words that are combined by two words, but SlideIT doesn't allow me to enter two words without a space between them, unless i go back and delete the space myself.
Well, easy solution: Go to options and de-select the Automatic space option! Yeah, thats the problem right there. I've already tried a bunch of times, but it doesn't change anything! The spaces keep appearing no matter what!
I've already emailed Dasur, and here is what I got:
Dear Sven Erik
We will check this issue,
Can you tell me if it append aso in Note an Word application ?

I answered YES to both apps, but still no answer.. (Sent on April 12th)
So, is anyone else having this problem?
Any solutions?
SlideIT looks nice and is nice to use but it has lots of little annoying bugs like the one you highlight here. The killer for me was the correction issue with HTC Messaging. I emailed Dasur suggesting they change their editing to the method Swype uses where you can place the cursor anywhere in a word to change it to something else using the suggestion system. With SlideIT you need to highlight the entire word which can't be done in HTC Messaging. As a result, any changes when composing text messages means the word has the be deleted and retyped in it's entirety.
As a result I'm still using Swype until these problems are resolved.

Norsk og tysk har mange likheter! (Er det riktig?)
I have the exact same issue: In German, many words are combined to create longer words as well and because the automatic space option is not working, it is not possible to enter them without having to remove the spaces inbetween manually afterwards. I also contacted Dasur and they sent me an answer thanking me for the feedback... But nothing has happened since! Otherwise SlideIt is awesome!
talk to them on their facebook page, they may be a bit more responsive there.

Yup, Norwegian is part of the German language tree
I sent Dasur a new mail yesterday, and again they reply with questions. I answer them, and guess what? No replies...
Same problems with dutch language here. I also searched for a solution and sent an e-mail but no response.
I got my response from Dasur now, it seems like the auto space option is only ment for ABC-mode:
It's not a bug,
We think that in slide mode* you write word after word
and not try to add word to word (in most languages you can't combine words)
my suggestion to you is to save the long words and to slide them in one slide
In the next version we will offer to disable the auto space in the slide mode too.

But that sucks! Sliding really long words with one pass is very inconvenient! The margin for errors is far too big! And it would be such an easy thing to implement! Come on!
Oh well... We'll see what the next version brings.
I just realized that the auto space option makes no sense if it is only ment for the abc mode, as you enter all letters and spaces manually. so as a reply to the mail I received earlier (see my previous posts) i had to reply:
Hi,
So what you are saying is that auto space option can only be turned off in abc mode? Is there even auto space in abc mode? How does auto space work in abc mode? I am sorry, but I cannot seem to make any sense of this...

I agree, v4.1.0.3 has been out for quite a while now so i hope im wrong but i think it will still be a wihle before a newer version is released.
As mentioned, it actually does respond faster than Swype but Swype is much more finger friendly, has less bugs, its just a smarter layout for editing etc.
SlideIT has great advantages though like the abbreviations etc so if they can just tweak it a little, it will be better than Swype. Needs skins as well, very plain unfortunately.
New mail received!
Okay, i still cant seem to figure these guys out...

if you slide you will get auto space always

Hey Guys,
Was hoping for a bit of constructive feedback. Wrote an app called NameBuzz:
A new concept in incoming Caller ID and SMS ID technology. Silently know who's calling, without your phone leaving your pocket!
- Vibrate pattern based on syllables in contact name
- Create custom vibrate patterns per contact
- Speak contact name out loud
- Vibrate on call end
- Press volume key to disable during call
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
The idea is that with only 5 or so people calling you regularly, their syllables should be enough for you to differentiate between people. And if not, you can always create a custom vibrate pattern for that contact!
As an extra, it also allows you to set up speaking caller ID - for the situations where you don't need your phone to be silent!
You can install with the following link:
NameBuzz Install
It's only tested in English for the time being, and on a Nexus One and Desire Z (HTC Vision).
If anyone gives it a go, feel free to let me know what you think!
Cheers,
Daz.

Nice app! If only the voice was more enjoyable not so roboty if possible. The buzzing will take some time to learn, especially if you have friends with similar names..
AIM mobile IM = buzzing out of control!

I think it should be fairly intuitive, as you can work out the number of syllables, and then the name. I would use the testing function a little to familiarise yourself.
AIM mobile IM = buzzing out of control!
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
This shouldn't buzz out of control, it will be the pattern of:
Buzz-Pause-Buzz-Buzz-Pause-Buzz - and then repeat.
AIM-space- Mob -ile -space-IM
So AIM = 1 syllable
Mobile = 2 syllables
IM = 1 syllable.
And I put little breaks in to break up words. Does that make sense?
could always use morse code for the vibrate patterns
I think I will try this.

Awesome, thanks! However, I guess you should warn people I've only tested this in english, and I coded the text-to-syllable engine to only really work with english letters. Hence, I'm not really sure how it will perform in german! Special accented characters that should be treated as syllable indicators probably won't get picked up...
Let me know if you give it a go, would be interested to know if it's really bad, or just not perfect!

I think I found the problem with this app not showing up in the Market for me. My phone was missing an update and once I performed it, NameBuzz showed up and installed without a glitch.
Great app. Makes phone calls a little easier to screen.
NameBuzz 1.2 now available:
- Works in collaboration with in-built ringer state. If your phone is in silent, it won't vibrate/speak, if in vibrate mode, it will vibrate but not speak, etc...
- Disabled during Call Waiting - simply provides call waiting tone rather than vibrating.
- Add custom speech text (ie. Incoming Call from Joe Bloggs)
- Added ability to set silent ringtone.

great keyboard works great
Took at look at your website, looks like a very good keyboard. I have the TMOUS HD2, and I've never liked its keyboard -- its keys are too close together.
I'd like to try SlideIT, but I have a question first. Can this keyboard be uninstalled if I don't like it by using "Remove programs" on my HD2? Thanks!
Looks like a great improvement. I'll post some feedback after some use. I already like the numbers/symbols being available by long press. That was one of the features lacking compared to Swype in my opinion.

Looks like a great improvement. I'll post some feedback after some use. I already like the numbers/symbols being available by long press. That was one of the features lacking compared to Swype in my opinion.

Did you install SlideIT on a TMOUS HD2? If so, when you installed the program, does it show up under Settings - Application - Remove programs? Have you tried uninstalling it? Thanks in advance for your reply.

No, I installed it on a RhodiumW. It shows up fine in the Remove Programs though. I haven't tried uninstalling, but it's generally pretty easy to look at a cab and just delete files from your phone if it won't uninstall. There's only 5 files, a shortcut added to \windows\startup, and 1 registry entry. A .dll goes in \Windows and 4 other files go in \Program Files\SlideIT. There's a setup.dll, but that probably just pops up the registration screen after install (though I don't know how to take the dll apart and see what it does ).

Neither do I (know how to dissect dll's)!! Thanks for the details. I'll probably give it a try after I backup my phone with SPB Backup, just in case.
Works smooth, i like the keyboard also, doesnt lag. Some words to need to be spelled out tho, other than no problems. Definitly a GO
I tried to try the keyboard. It's always asking for an activation key. So it wasn't possible for me to try it. But it looks great. I'm using Goatrip 5.5..

I'd like to try SlideIT, but I have a question first. Can this keyboard be uninstalled if I don't like it by using "Remove programs" on my HD2? Thanks!

Yes, since it didn´t work at my device (allways asking for activation) I uninstalled it using the windows routine. Everything seems to work as it should afterwards.
Here's my review after a few days of use.
Errors/Bugs
-General Settings - It says ‘Taping’ instead of Tapping.
-Check for update returns “You have a last version. Update is not available.” It would probably be more grammatically correct to just say "You have the latest version."
-Did have some problems getting it to type after initial install. I needed to switch to different keyboard and back to slideit in order for it to work correctly.
-At one point, I got stuck on registration/settings page and a task manager showed almost 11 MB of memory being used by SlideIT. It locked up the phone. This seems to be almost exclusively related to the registration pop up. It appears at different times (not just after a soft reset). I have a problem of it appearing after ending a call. It makes the device non-responsive for several seconds until the phone allows me to press 'OK'. I imagine this would not occur if I had a licensed version.
Likes over previous version
-Symbols above letters
-Smiles
-Moving the period to right of space bar. I was always pressing "," before in the previous version of SlideIT.
Suggestions
-Add a feature for one letter words like “I” an “a” where you can slide from I to space and have a space-I entered. As it is now, a space has to be entered manually before pressing “a” or “I”.
-Change Brown to default to the color instead of the name (lower case). Just personal preference I suppose .
Thanks and looking forward to the final version.
I would like to try it, looks nice to me, but when I press demo button it tells me that I need internet connection to activate demo. Probably becouse I am on wi-fi not on data connection. When I will have working intetrnet settings for prepay O2 UK I will try again. It would be nice to be abble to register with wi-fi internet co
nnection. Sorry for my English.
