Who's us? Are you from Opera? Ok, here is a thought: what about pinch-to-zoom support
Still no pinch-to-zoom in this release?
What would be the point of pinch-to-zoom support? Opera 10 only supports two levels of zoom - zoomed in and zoomed out. Why would switching between them using a pinch instead of a tap be in any way preferable? Possibly what people actually want is not just to have two levels of zoom, but to have smooth zooming as in 9.7 - but that's a far bigger change than simply detecting a pinch gesture, what with deciding how to handle text-reflow, etc.
OK, but it does support plugins like flash, wmplayer. Well done Opera!!
(activate it via settings/advanced/plug-in)
For dutch users: head over to uitzendinggemist.nl
Multiple levels of zoom can be really handy with a huge WVGA display.
When I talk about pinch-to-zoom support I exactly mean what you said: being able to choose between different levels of zoom and use multi touch gestures to easily switch between them.
The point is that I'm kinda surprised that O10b doesn't have this feature enabled since in the previous one (9.7) it's already built-in
P.S. Thanks for the heads up xenept
nice... though it didn't inherit existing bookmarks?

I totally agree. But I think that the market for a general release is just to early. I suppose we have to wait a bit longer (till WM 7?).
BTW I don't like opera 10 on the hd2. The screen is much to sensitive for it. Reading a column is very difficult. The page constantly moves to the right or to the left when you're scrolling donw.
I do like the new plug-in support though!

Sorry, didn't mean to give the impression that I was representing Opera. I'm just a nobody.
Just wanted to glean feedback from the community before taking the plunge myself!

I was just kidding Would be nice if Opera came visit "us" here though, so we can finally ... punch-and-booeeh those guys. (Again, kidding..)
dont know what you guys are seeing but even enabling plugins doesnt seem to make flash work. Just puts a big play button on flash movies that doesnt work.

Auto rotate working for anyone? Also, unable to watch Youtube videos directly.
No auto rotate here, but it did happen at least once unexpectedly!
What is the site you are trying to test the plugins?
Youtube shoots off into the youtube app.
Those who claim that this supports Flash, can you post a link to a page that contains some Flash content which works correctly? It doesn't seem to play the videos on the BBC News site (which play quite happily in IE).
yeah, it definetely support flash, i just saw a video on pocketnow
for autorotation use bsb tweaks, works like a charm

Hi

Update:
I have put one for OS 2.1 version. this one is with scrollbar, no customized screens yet. 800k looks very small.
------------------
hi all friends,
I have mod the original launcher little bit, to add a screen indicator, the source code version is 1.6.
how to install :
Code:
adb remount
adb push Launcher.apk /system/app/Launcher.apk
Hope you like it.
updated, change the indicator picture little bit.
if you want to change it, the images are under res\drawable-port and res\drawable-land
I put a 2.1 version in the attachment. with scrollbar instead of image .
thanks.
Looks cool
This is pretty cool, I have often wished Android came with this functionality by default.
I made some screenshots in case people want to see without pushing the apk. They're JPG so obviously it looks a little better on the phone.
Keep in mind this Launcher has 3 screens, so if you're coming from a 5-screen Launcher you'll have to re-organise your icons beforehand.

Yeah, reminds me the bottom lines on Home++, its great.
I wonder if it's possible to change either anderweb's or this one to be similar to the scroll bar on sense roms or espresso.

I make the mod by several line of code, if make the scrollbar, I think need more coding. let me think if it's possible.

when i first saw AnderWeb's launcher, that's the first thing that i tried to do, but really haven't figured out something yet. The closest I came was the sense ui in my adw themed launcher2 thread. i do agree. Getting this will be awesome! Seems like we are slowly but surely gettin' donut to run like sense/2.0 without having to ever switch roms. All thanks to the great devs we have here on xda. Keep up the good work!
looks lots of people like sense ui.
Afaik, the sense scrolling thing is pretty much the same as nexus scrolling dots with a minor annoyance:
-if you do it graphically identical (following the circular pattern on the drawer 5ab) you are condemned to a fixed number of screens by design.
-if you want customizable screen number, it can be done the same way as Home++ does, with a bottom stright line (same way as the mod on this thread)
so users need to make the choice
It shouldn't be too hard to implement the sense bar, the rogers magic on cupcake has it. i myself hate the sense iu

So it would be possible to have it look similar but the bar wouldn't move like in sense?
good idea..but don't work on my super d 1.10.2 :-(
Why?
tnx

I wouldn't mind sticking with a set number of homescreens. I myself have become accustomed to using just five homescreens and that alone. I think 5 is plenty, but I'm just one guy and other people have different desires and needs. I wouldn't mind seeing it put into action. I am very much a big fan of sense ui, if you haven't already noticed. lol

I would try it on super d, and post feed back.
Summarize all friends' comment,
1, scroll bar would be better.
2, customized number of screen would be better.
Dear all,
Thanks for all the useful tips over the past few years, I've finally done something worth giving back to the community.
I noticed the HD2 and diamond skins but there wasn't a skin available the correct resolution for my QVGA Touch2... So I decided to make one using the existing skins as examples. The process was pretty straightforward and took me about an hour playing around to get it right.
I know that there will be some issues so let me tell you what I already know before you come back to me to tell me.
Anti-aliasing is a bit rough around the edges, it looks best on white backgrounds. At any zoom level other than 100% it does not go transparent and you have a white edge (which looks a bit ugly). According to other similar threads this is due to a bug with MM not the skin itself.
Also if you switch the skin into landscape it goes wrong. I am hoping that somebody may have some ideas as to how to get MM to rotate the skin, or be able to set a landscape skin up. I could not find any examples of this.
Also I don't think the start button works, although the button is mapped out.
Enjoy, let me know if you have any ideas about rotating it. I don't have much time to adjust but thought other people may well want the same as I did, so here you are. Feel free to improve on it.
Mr Gringo
Edit: Attaching screenshots
Hei, can you post screenshots, i dont understand whats that...
Apologies for the confusion, I have appended a screenshot as requested.

That is the point! But there was not a skin for My Mobile which makes it look like the Touch2 until now. Those screen shots are actually displaying my phones screen, not an emulator or static screenshot.
Have a look at this site: fuzemobility.com/mymobiler-skins-for-htc-hd2-tp2-and-more/ and you should catch on.
Ok, thought that the screen was "automatically" displayed by mymobiler.....
And since I use direct mobile device connection, never had the need for mymobiler .....
Will give it a try.....thanks for clarification!
Google's already indicated that tablets and smartphones won't be sharing the same Android build until Ice Cream Sandwich in Q4, though interestingly enough, it turns out that the tablet-friendly Honeycomb actually has Gingerbread's interface quietly tucked underneath. According to modder Graffix0214, all you need for making the jump is one simple tweak in a system file: assuming you already have root access, use your preferred method -- Pocketables recommends the LCDDensity for Root app -- to change the LCD density value to 170 or higher to emulate a smaller, denser display. After a reboot, you should then see some Gingerbread love as demoed by Graffix0214's video after the break; and likewise, set the value to 160 or lower to roll back. It sure is nice to have an option, eh?

I am curious if this works... if it does then maybe full screen apps and video players will not have the status bar.

I didnt see this until I arrived at work so I couldnt try it. Just wondering if anyone has. I saw that Zoom supports it.
I am sure that it will work- It is not really a surprise to me.
I remember messing around with the density setting and, even on my HD2, the icons and everything would completely change depending on what the density was set to.
That was a far back as 2.2.

This is very simple and very useable browser for android tablets.(Development edition) In simulator it works on all tablets, what I was test!!!
Please don't be angry, if something does not work, so how do you like.
For big android tablets is one problem, browsers are impractical. If you want with right hand finger go back, you probably need stretch to the buttons located on the opposite corner.
In this browser I can operate with almost all buttons in one side.(In next edition I will include these buttons for left hand!)
And for this reason, it is the most practical browser, what ever made.
And it looks good. For others design is depressing grey, or boring white.
It has a bright orange color, with nice buttons.(In next edition I will include other colors and design details!)
It has almost all, what's need in browsers: java script, flash player enabled, bookmarks, history, zoom bottons etc..
It is pretty fast as well!!!
It has tilt scrolling with 3 angles, 3 speeds(you can change it in settings)(works only in lanscape mode).
You can shake device, if you want go back in webpage!
It has four available tabs, but because it is development edition, it works little bit wierd.
This is my first app, who I ever made, and I'm in learning process.
It's will works and looks good on tablets, who has more than 7'' and more than 480x800px.(if you try install on 5'' and 480x800px it will be useless, probably).
And it's designed for landscape mode!
If something not going well, please rate my app and write there, what exactly you not like.
It's 3 day trial version.
Some tips:
If google not open websites, please turn google from tablet to clasic mode!
If mobile youtube not playing video, turn youtube to desktop version!
Please find it in Play store!

Here is the link to the app:

As much as I'd like to help, unfortunately, I do not have a tablet to test this on.
I have updated my previous post to direct link to your app (since you can't post links yet).
If you need anymore help, I'll be around.

First of all congrats on this app! I used on my Motorola Xoom and looked good, but here's some flaws that I think you can fix to improve it.
1 - The color annoys me a little, the orange doesn't go well with JB IMHO
2 - When typing the search it goes to a website, for example : typed xda developers, it try going to the site http://xda developers lol
3 - The color of the letters is white on a white background on the site bar
4 - Ads on a Web browser?! Are you crazy? Your browser may be good, but I can use many others which are free and better than yours! Like Chrome which is my actual browser
Conclusion: it is promising, just some things to fix and improve, looking forward to it :thumbup:

I just think you should take off ads from the pages, put it like on the bookmarks or something like that, because on the page I'm viewing it's really annoying... I understand what you want, but I just think putting ads where you put it is not good, also don't spam your own thread with "refreshes" just to go to the top, put a link on your signature and hope someone find it.
