Hello and goodbye all,
I’ve just sold my HD2 as I didn’t need it anymore due to my company giving me a BlackBerry and not allowing me to set up the HD2 on the company e-mail system due to security…
I’d love to have kept it but I simply don’t need two phones.
I already miss my HD2 even though it wasn’t perfect, ref. quirky keyboard, in-car BT not compatible, always keep a spare charger nearby, (and one or two other little things).
In particular I already miss the nice big HD screen, in-built GPS with a variety of nav. software to choose from (I ran CoPilot and liked it), the fun side of the HD2 (good games and multimedia), and I really miss CHT and having all those shortcuts being just a quick swipe away!
(But I am already used to the BB connecting to my car BT automatically again though, and the battery lasting up to 3 days with normal use.)
I also miss the ‘moddability’ of the HD2, which brings me onto the purpose of my post...
I didn’t really have much time to spend on modding; I have a family, I like going out and I have a job – and I like sleep!
But, I did do a bit of stuff for personal use, some of it I have shared on here before (quite a while ago now). And this actually took me quite some time to do so I thought that I would share it with everyone rather than simply press delete on the HD2 folder on my PC. Maybe somebody else would like to use some of my templates to help them with their own work – that’s up to you, but here is some of my stuff anyway.
I ran my own icons on my HD2; I had about 98% of my apps covered. It was this project that I spent the most time on and is really what I want to share with you - please find STARGAZER icons within the attached .zip file. The other stuff I also ran on my HD2 but I’m not really bigging that up so much, but use if you like. (Please extract the .zip files properly to maintain the folder structure.)
I have also included some PhotoShop (Elements) files with the stuff I have attached, not for all icons due to file-size (I do still have all of them), but enough so you can use them again if you wanted to.
All of the enclosed image files are my own work, with the exception of the base icons. Most of the graphics I have made from scratch.
I have attached a screen shot from a previous post I made to show you the icons - I didn't like the clock in the image so I mad a different one with blue bubble digits - it's all included in the attached .zips.
The font isn't mine, I got it off of XDA, but I attached it just in case you like it and want to use it.
Please use them as you like (if you like)………..
Cheers,
Nick.
Maybe I'll see you again in the future...

Good Luck with the BB mate
thanks for posting your icons nniicckkss, look really good.
good luck in the future with your BB, my mate has a BB Bold and swears by it, maybe not as 'fancy' as the hd2, but having minimal software and OS issues must be nice lol
I really like your icons ! why not do some of these icons in windowsmobile software application? If you do it then thank you very much!

Thank you for your feedback.
I don't know how to cab these up, but I've no real interest in looking into this now as I've left Win.Mob. as my OS.
Please feel free if you or anyone else wants to do this - use them as you like.
I installed them all manually on my device!!

Hi,
Been doing some research on Windows Mobile/PPC shells.
So far I have tried the following.
1.

HTC Home with SPB Mobile shell HOME icons only. (only way i know how to get icons on my home screen was via spb..)
I mainly use this right now.
2.
I tried out ThrottleLauncher's TouchFlo3D
IT IS OKAY, not bad actaully. Still some issues. But not bad at all.
3.
Winterface, wow i really love this.
My major issue is, it has no today plug-in so I always find myself back at the windows today screen all the time.
Other lame issue is their SMS app and contact app and photo app, they could have integrated those standalone apps way better into a single product.
Overall vito's app suite looks promising.
Anyhow,
My question is what other mobile shells are there? Is there anything out there close to winterface but better? I really like it. Overall anymore finger friendly things? Post/link me to other apps. Please give me thoughts.... and ideas...
For iPhone interface look-a-like, iFonz.

Today Life is very good & finger friendly, developing fast.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=407900
and then there is spb mobile shell, which isn`t free + lots and lots of others.
thanks
Thank you for the suggestions.
I already use SPB Mobile. Paid for it and vito suite.
Anyhow keep suggestions/apps coming. Hopefully down road someone else will find this thread useful.
Any others?

WOW, that is not bad
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=364344
found another
Not a bad thread, nice to have all the various options laid out.
As you have HTC's Home plugin for the Today screen included, you may also want to add Pocket Digital Clock (just a nice, lightweight clock) in combination with your launcher of choice such as UltimateLaunch or MortButtons.
yepp
That is the idea of this tread so one day some newbie can look at the work i already did for them. Also hoping others will contribute.

sorry repeated post
Im talking about shells not specfic app so much but thanks for the suggestion.
Becomes kind of blurred as most of the apps that are or are going to be listed are typically just a clock with an app launcher.
I was going to start a thread... regarding
"windows mobile finger friendly apps'
starting a list of applications like this...
but i found a website http://www.touch-innovation.com/
It does not list free ones... so anyone want to add on apps to this list free or paid? besides ones on the site.
rL today - It's a customizable XML based multi purpose plugin..
Hi guys, I´m looking for some aviation software, espacially a weather program that shows METAR, TAF and SPECI weather reports of aerodromes by the ICAO location indicator codes.
Additionally I´m looking for an aviation calculator, some kinda E6B thing or so...
Concerning the weather thing it might be also easy for a skilled programmer to create a little app, because you can grap the necessary weather information easily by the web. There are certain sites like
weather.noaa.gov/weather/coded.html
or
de.allmetsat.com/metar-taf/index.html
and several others (via google)
that offer the needed weather information...
Regards,
insi
I want this too, plenty apps available for iphone...
Plz
Can someone plz make an apps for this service - I really need one.....
Is this something you would pay for/there is a market for?
Also where does this information come from? Can it be easily syndicated?
Let me know and I might be able to cook something up (though it may take a little while).
I would give $10,- for an aviation weather-app!
Google is your friend. Search for WXSYS That prog should do it.
Yes, it looks good.
However, after entering my e-mail address, I still can not send any query.
It does not work for me.
No problem on my HD2 with EDDF. It even gave me satellite images
there is definately a market for that ;-) And I would pay for this kinda app - I think I would pay up to 40 Euro for it.
I know wxsys very well but for german aerodromes, especially the smaller ones it is quite bad...
regards, insi
Hrm,
Ok, maybe I need to canvas an aviation forum to see what kind of response I get.
This is something I might be interested in developing but it might take a little while. I'll keep you posted.
Something similar to aeroweather on the iphone would be great.. Count me in and my $10!! flyingmarvo
Maybe you could have a look at SBSH PocketWeather. It includes METAR aso. Using it for quite a long time. Don't know if that's the right thing for you - maybe a beginning...
After migrating from an iPhone, i am desperately waiting for something along the lines of PilotWizz.
It was great for Calculations, and decodes the latest weather (TAFs and METARs) for easy and simple viewing.
TBH im fairly disappointed with whats on offer on WM in general....hope someone is able to sort something out!!!
I´ve been using the program that´s been said before with good results for Europe:

Hi all,
I use this website for several years now, thank you all for sharing all your knowledges, roms, etc ...
Today it's my turn to propote my app
I made a music player with file browsing, 10 months ago, and I updated it.
Did you ever have music files without tags ? (for example ripped from your CDs)
Did you ever add some music in a "new music" folder in your memory card, without knowing exactly all the artist / albums ?
Do you know the "unknown artist" who sings the "Track 01", even if your file name is correct ?
For all those cases, this application will save you
I should work fine on your phone but many of you have custom roms so I would like to have feedbacks.
You can contact me at [email protected]
It should work with any roms,
The UI can support from small screens (320x240) to the biggest one (480x840).
Thank you,
See you !
nico.
Congrats
It seems quite nice.
Gonna try!
Thanks!
I've downloaded and tried this app. It definitely works.
What I would like to see is a design that is more sleek. The music player for 2.1 is a good example of what I'm talking about.
post deleted
Looks soo cool & better than stock app.
I like it....would be cool to see some album art and maybe a paid version with no ads
seems like a decent app. the interface is very straigtforward and simple, but integrates well with sense. very cool that it is controllable through the applet (as it seems to to use the stock player for actual playback).
i have one suggestion: the fonts are unneccessary big in the file list, can you make them smaller or user selectable?
good to see more music players on the market, i wrote musicflow....
Looking good so far.
+1 for the album art and the graphics.
I have adfree running so can't see the advertising anyway, something you may want to think about because a lot of people have this program.
If I wanted adware i'd have a windows os
Any screens?
@cyberniko
Looks nice but after installation i started it and it gave me a FC on MCR 3.x ROM, didn't started any just launched app.

nice as i am

...for convinience
cyberniko said:
Do you have the android SDK and avaibility to see the trace of the app ?
My problem is that I plug this app to the music service. This music service has not the same name with htc (because of sense) than in basic android device.
I look the name of the device to choose.
If the name, or the service has changed because of a custom rom, it can be a problem.
Do you have HTC sense on this ROM ?
I will try to look deeper into the device to make this choice... I let you know if I find something.

Can you describe debug proces , never done that before.
I can give you the output of it, maybe it helps.
Tested on hero, works great. It's a really good idea - I'm surprised nobody else thought of it first.
Also, I know this is the wrong part of the forum, but I figured since the dev checks this anyway, and to save time for myself, I'd post here. Tried on N1, force closes when I try pressing buttons.
can't test it for now
but does this app works if i uninstalled the default HTC music player??
@cyberniko,
Don't know what happend but i'm unable to reproduce that FC that i had.
I'll keep you posted.
great job!
Nice. I like this better than the stock
so i test it yesterday, and don't seems to work fo me (i recall that i uninstalled htcMusic.apk )
the app is running but saying that playlist is empty with no way to edit it (or i'm totally blind )
Hey Guys
I got some of these cheap, so im going to be giving one to a random member of the community. But then that would be just TOO easy giving it away. So, i'm asking you to post your favourite modification or application for Froyo 2.2 JPH firmware.
Post An:
- Application
- Game
- Theme (For TouchWiz)
- Modification
or anything else you can think of that I would like. This is open to UK members only because I ain't shipping to outside countries that would cost me alot of money to post. Other members can still participate as I will be giving one person £2.00.GBP on PayPal to another member that is not in the UK. Picture of the case below!

What a VERY nice gesture, well done!!
It makes such a NICE change to read something like this post instead of the normal stuff that goes on.
If Im honest I could never post a favourite ANYTHING!! theres just so much and its all good.
Keep up the good work and once again, well done for doing this.

Think of it this way, if you had your JPH firmware, and you could only install ONE third party app, mod or things like that, what would you install? And i'm giving one or two of these away because I have learned alot here, made my phone awesome (Just like I did my Nokia 5800), and now giving something back!
Go on then, Ill have a go
So I go and look at my phone, on there are the things I cannot live without like:
Android Manager
Audio Manager
Beautiful Widgets
Dropbox
Handcent SMS
London Tube Live
National Rail
Home Switcher
Screen On
Shazzam
SMS Backup and Restore
Simply Lockscreen
Tweetcaster
WiFi Analyzer
There all the apps I ALWAYS install on any rom I have installed...
Think Beutiful Widgets is the top??
Maybe SMS Backup and Restore 2nd, I like to have my SMS backed up when messing with roms.
There ya go.. if I chnage my mind Ill edit it LOL
TrOjAn
not the most productive suggestion but the only app/game i seem to use on a daily basis is:
Lets Golf from gameloft.
it really is good fun and very addictive - and i also purchased this phone on its gaming potential over anything else.
i also play superheroes alliance daily but thats more of a thing to do when i have 5 mins free (add me jtjih)
also very nice gesture
Home Screen App - Launcher X Pro
Game - Angry Birds
3/4 repilies, leaving it until tomorrow night to decide!
Adam if it helps decide I love you lol.... could swap you a child even choice of 2, both make tea <jk>

(when it's released) New version of MyPhoneExplorer with Android support.
Imagine Android Manager, but 1000% feature complete with an insane amount of polish.
Now just the waiting game.

Great games that anyone would enjoy:

Hi there,
Before we begin, I know that there's a lot of attention at the moment for text-based clocks, etc. I use apps like TAJM, and appreciate what they bring to the Android community.
I'm a designer by trade, and really wanted to create something that would look nice on my homescreen...so I designed the following mock-ups:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
All of the above is my own artwork, including the launcher pro docks and icons. However, it's just the clock that I want to bring to the table....here is what I'm thinking:
I'd like to see some kind of 'info' clock, with many customiseable options that the user that choose...so that they could personalise it the way they want it. The could have something like:
Large text-based clock with smaller battery stats underneath.
Numerical clock with battery stats.
Larger battery stats with small text or numerical clock underneath.
Large text-based clock with google calender events underneath (scraped from your synced calendar!)
...plus many, many other options.
What I'm looking for is a great, fast coder who can help me with this. I would carry out all the design work, be able to pass the Photoshop PSD files to you, and you carry out the code.
I am thinking that, initially, we create a small app which would be free. However, as the number of options grow, we COULD charge a small amount then splits the proceeds 50/50. I've not thought this thing through yet...but we can talk!
So, can anyone help? I want it to look GOOD, and I want it to be functional.
If you can help, either PM me here or grab me on [email protected]
Thanks
Mike
Cant help but Ill bump because this looks amazing.
Looks great
I'd also like for a coder to appear for this project.
Wish it were me but I have no idea. Just would like this on my Epic
I actually has something similar in mind for a widget. Since I have to rewrite Tajm (it's crap at the moment) I hade plans to make a more complete widget containing BattStatt, Tajm and a weather (in text like battstatt and tajm) and maybe something else.
Though it wasn't as pretty as yours in my head
Well, how about getting something together....I can come up with some nice design ideas for TAJM and you could implement them?
I'm really not looking to out-do anyone...and whatever works well for the community has to be a good thing, right?
