Hey guys, just a quick question...(i think im hoping for far too much tho) ...but, is there any possible way to get our precious droid devices to possibly use vector formats for icons??
im currently playing with Launcher Pro and Desktop Visualizer.....and as such, im reallly craving some vector based icons, that I can resize without losing quality.
...am I hoping for too much?
...could it be possible for some of you smart minds here to implement, say, a EPS file format into the phone?

Hey hows it goin guys...im new to the forums here and im new to windows mobile as well, just recently switched over to the mogul from the instinct and well im wayyy more satisfied with it than I ever was with my instinct.
Right now i'm running a custom ROM on my Mogul, Titanium v. something...it definately improved the usability of the device over the default OS, but still is a little laggy for my taste. Not to fear ill be getting a touch pro either tomorrow or monday so that's where my real interest currently lies.
Lemme get to my point.
Basically i'm here to introduce myself considering ill probably be spending alot of time here (and to be honest, at other forums as well) after I get my pro, and also cause I have some questions about stuff i'd like to understand. Before I ask anything i just wanna make it clear that i personally am very knowledgeable when it comes to techincal aspects of the computer world in general so I don't have too hard of a time understanding majority of things.
Now for my questions.
1. What is the difference between using the default sprint rom or a custom one? Advantages vs. disadvantages? What should I be considering in selecting a ROM for use? What's the best one? What is a 'kitchen'?
2. What is the difference between the different radios? What are the disadvantages/advantages of using different ones? What is the purpose of changing to a different radio? What's the best one?
3. Any important/useful tweaks/hacks/software I should know about to improve the usage of my device? If i'm going to be venturing into the world of 'custom ROM flashing' and 'radios' and etc, what else do I need to know? What different factors should I take into account that will affect the stability of my device?
I think I had some other things I wanted to ask but I can't remember them right now, if i think of them later i'll post.
And I understand that I could probably search and find the answer to some of these questions, but I feel that by asking them this way i'll probably get a better answer. I have a basic understanding of my above questions right now, but i'd like to have a better-than-basic understanding if you know what I mean.
Thanks in advance to anyone who responds to this, I appreciate the help.

Follow link below
Well, I've recently got a Touch Pro from my brother and it's a lovely new thing to toy with, especially a windows based phone. Having owned other more 'simpler' phones, this is a lovely breath of fresh air :3 So I found out there are now better versions of Windows Mobile; 6.5. Well, anything better than 6.1 anyways.
So I cruised by the magical interwebs for a some info and I was redirected to these forums. Though only to be bombarded by a wall of [tags] that I honestly don't understand nor do I have a gist of. Basically; Lolwhut?
I've been searching around and I just need help with
|TP|6.5.5|WWE| ★ Energy Series (23554/21898) ★|Mar 30|★ Sense 2.1 / Titanium
I read the sticky, but sure, that's where stuff like the ROM or the language. In essence, I just wanna be able to distinguish what the fish it is that would be more suitable for my liking. Or at least the difference in them.
And also, could someone direct me to a very muchos dumbed down version?
P.S; Woot first post
Distinguish what fish it is? Well, I'm not so sure what you mean, but maybe you're talking about what the rom has to offer.
If so, then NRG posts a list of all the programs he use. Most of them are pretty self explanatory. I use the same ROM as above and I can tell you that they're all useful apps in one way shape or form.
Also, what is your main question in all this. Do you want help in how to flash a ROM? or do you need help trying to figure out which rom you like best?
Well, I just want to know how to differentiate the versions of releases by those chefs (as they're called I think) based on speed and stability.
In essence; yes, you can say that I do need help trying to figure out what's best.
Hi all,
I've nearly finished a project that has been about 4 months in the making. I'm not going to go into detail about what it does or what it's for, but there are 2 applications - 1 on the PC where you make "project" files, and one for your phone where you utilise these project files.
I need some graphics doing for both apps (icons and splash screens).
I'll obviously give anyone that's interested more information about the app, but anyone that's interested let me know and, if possible, link or attach some of your work on here.
I honestly believe that this app will be a BIG hit, as it does a nearly unlimited amount of things. It will also replace the CHTEditor.
Anyone that gets their artwork in it will obviously be mentioned in both the thread and the app, so it will earn us both kudos! Me for my app looking great, and you for showing off your skills.
Thanks all!
I can do the odd graphic thing, Im not particularly good but I would be willing to have a go if no one else wanted to (which is very unlikely)
tbh I just want to know when its being release

You bought a phone with an infant OS for functionality? It can't do half the things Android and iOS can (yet), and you say it's ugly. I am really questioning your reasoning skills. By the way, it's the best looking and smoothest interface available. Please tell me you don't think the silver/lime green/blue (and completely uncustomizable) iOS theme looks good LOL

You should have read a bit more or ask here before you bought a WP7 with what you call a hideous interface, would have saved you money and us having to read thru all the .....
Quick answer.... No !
Guys, 2 things:
Stop flaming please and try and be helpful
secondly and lastly, @OP, this is not dev related so im moving this to Q&A.
Thanks.
Ok people....let me get this straight....I picked up the phone from a friend that needed money.....he bought the phone on contract, and later needed some money....not a new phone...I gave him 100.00 dollars for it...I am a happy owner owner of an hd2...in a dual boot config...I have never had a windows phone before so I know nothing about the OS....themes....modding.....nothing at all....which is why I came here to ask for EXPERTISE.....not flaming....Im sure there are things on your phones that you dont like either.Mine on the other hand is the looks of the Operating system...after seeing all the different roms and themes for android that are available...I was simply curious to see if there was anything like that for htc hd7 YET...I personally think that Microsoft designed an extremely ugly interface for such a nice phone..I hate the looks of it...big ugly squares of color that take up the whole screen ....looks like a 3rd grader designed it...IMO.So please dont flame me about the phone.I know anyone of you would have happily paid 100.00 for the Brand new phone as well...So on that note...thanks to the people that actually gave me useful information.Now I have the answer to my question.I understand the phone is very new and it will take time to get things modded, themed etc...so I will wait....Or maybe someone here is interested in a trade for an android device that is similar in value?...Who knows....
To the Flamers that have nothing better to do but bash someone for something they have no idea about....GET A LIFE!!!...and remember this next time you ask anyone about something you are unsure of...and hopefully you wont get flamed simply because you ASKED.....peace out...Larry

I remember seing a few apps that would secure notes and pictures with password/encription protection.

lol way to go in hijacking someones thread
Seriously though, there is a free app on the market place called SecureIt, in which you can place photos stored in the normal folders and place in there, password protected.
It cant store anything else in there, but it is a good place to hide the girly pics from the misses (so im told )
If you wanted to keep anything else in there such as documents, i guess you could save them in jpeg format instead of pdf for example, that could work
CHow.
Hey larry,
Good you found your answer and that your enjoying your HD2 (it is an awesome device IMHO).
WP7 is in its early state and as such MS will continue to develop it further, i mean look at Apple; they certainly didnt get it right first time, nor did they with android hence all the updates which improve not only the UI but speed, security etc.
WP7 does indeed have exciting times ahead, you only have to look at Mango to realise how well integrated social networking will be in the very core of the OS.
Personally i think wp7 is good, a refreshing attempt at something different, which has great scope for further development in both the OS itself and on the market place, but everyone has their own opinion and certain OS's are not for everyone.
Feel free to PM me, or discuss this further here
Cheers,
Tim.
My Wife has been a professional photographer for about 7 years now. her birthday is coming up within the next 2 weeks. I have purchased her an Htc Sensation for her birthday.. I would like to have a custom rom made for her with photography as a main theme and really the purpose of the phone.. Ex.. a photograhpy style ui theme. Camera tweaks etc etc.. i am no dev so i do not know what can and cant be done.
If any dev is interested in this please feel free to pm me or leave a reply on this thread..
I will pay via pay pal when the project is completed.
Sincerely Kevin
one comes stock with the fone, check it under lockscreen, and get a live wall paper called "photogrid" and the phone will now display pics when locked and unlocked.
the stock camera is really good for a fone, but there is a mod to improve it vastly
...unless i completely missed the point, there is no need to waste your money with a request such as this

I would guess he wants this to be the equivalent of the audiophile rom for the galaxy s 4g
For the most part i'm interested in a theme. I am no photographer or have really any artistic ability.
I would like someone to create a Themed ui that is represenetive in a way Photographer feels about their passion.
Foto tile slideshow is a much better live wallpaper to use i find.. Displays multiple pictures at once from a few sources

thats a tall order right there, for the most part, when i capture my "passion" on a fone i do it myself, kinda pointless if someone else's interpretation of an idea you try to conceive comes through...more often than not, you wont be satisfied...
on top of that, i done think anyone will make this for you on such a short notice for that amount of money...your best bet is to pm a few themers in the themes and apps thread and cross your fingers.
other than that, im sure she will love the fact that you got her this fone, it has a great camera, and really, its the thought that counts when giving a gift ;P
