[Q] Screen Orientation in Grooveshark 2.3.1 on Wildfire - General Questions and Answers

Hi people,
i'm having a problem with the latest grooveshark app which seems to have a problem with the non-standard screen size of the wildfire. (jokerdroid 4.2, rooted).
it crashes whenever i change the orientation to portrait in the now playing view. on landscape it works. as i cant seem to find an older version to reinstall and want to use the newest features, i'm searching a way to fix the app's overall screen orientation to landscape.
My first guess was to modify the AndroidManifest.xml. But i cant seem to open it in windows and i dont really know how to edit it anyway. Maybe someone can have a look at the file and tell me where to add what?
Help is really much appreciated.
greetings,
mo

While I can't help you with any actual coding or editing, the best I can suggest is to send a screenshot (or take a picture of it crashing/crashed) and if you know how, send a logcat of it crashing as well, to the developer of the app.
You may also want to try running it on your stock ROM if you are able.
Good luck, and sorry I couldn't really be of more help.

i tried it on the stock rom but still no luck. other users are having the same problem, see goo.gl/kd6bD .
i already sent that logfile to the devs. but it doesnt seem much like they would change something as i still dont have an answer after 1 week. Maybe they removed support for certain resolutions...?
i cant seem to find a way to manually locate the logfiles so i cant post them here...
thanx already for the tips.

Will 'Touch Settings' Program from Elf work for Polaris?

Is the 'Touch Settings' program a posible alternative for changing which programs are called up by the Videos and the Music button within the cube or is it specific to the Elf?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=324556
I'd really like to use CorePlayer for Videos, etc.
Thanks in advance for the help.

yea im pretty sure it'll work. dont have a device though to make sure
Nope, I tried it (all versions) and it won't even install - I get the "the program doesn't have sufficient system permissions" error message. Maybe someone will modify this app for the polaris - it seems like it would be useful since HHC doesn't customize the cube and this does.
** Bump **
I'm another Polaris user (well, it's on pre-order at the moment). This 'Touch Settings' program sounds like exactly what I was hoping to be able to use.
Is there any chance the program can be adapted to work on the Polaris? Can anyone hazard a guess from psargent's "the program doesn't have sufficient system permissions" when installing error message as to what the problem might be since I realise that it isn't reasonable to expect people like the author of this program to have every device at their disposal but if possible fixes can be suggested then maybe it can be fixed "blind"? I for one would be more than happy to validate any possible fixed version on a real device.

Mine is on pre-order as well, and I would love to see this....
PoorlyDuck has some inspiring skins, and then there is this post, on a different site, that changes the cube to six sided.
Here is Poorlyducks post,
page 23 has the skins....

I have posted a few different times to Carlos in the "Elf" forum regarding this topic. Unfortunately he has not responded. It would be nice to use this program versus making the neccessary adjustments to the registry manually. Just a note that permissions error I also received when trying to load to my Touch.
*Bump*
This would be great on the TC. I have found a few registry settings that look easy to change (for the 6 icon side), but a complete program would be better. It would be nice to have the media hub customized as well.

Sorry to hijack the thread but can you point me to the registry change to get the 6 sided cube?
Nope
Hi all,
I´ve got a German Orbit 2 aka TC and as far as I can see it doesen´t work. After installing all necessary files manually (due to rights-limitations) I can start the programm, but it doesen´t recognize my MediaMinihub. I can change the Phoo/Video/Music cube-side, but that´s it.
Maybe its because I got a German ROM...?
sorry for that.

Does anyone know what/where the registry settings are to point the HTC album to the storage card?

Hi, I'm the author of Touch Settings and I would be very happy to work with the community to get it working on the Polaris.
The CAB install error you're getting is v interesting. Steps to take to try and cure this problem are:
1. The device may be app locked, you need to download a program called Device Security Manager, then with your Polaris connected to Activesync, disable all the security:
Look at this web page for more info.
2. Also, try installing the sdcerts if possible (again, see above web page)
3. Check Free Storage memory; lack of this can cause the problem.
Please can somebody try all the above with the NEW VERSION 2.22 OF TOUCH SETTINGS (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=324556&goto=newpost)
If it doesn't work, I will upload a ZIP file of the individual files and we can try a manual installation.
Best

PS: I don't know an awful lot about security certs and device provisioning, so if any other developers can point me to a way of making the CAB install on the Polaris, please do.

- Is the device app locked in some way: are the security certificates restrictive?
Look at THIS WEB PAGE: http://blogs.msdn.com/windowsmobile/archive/2007/05/30/all-about-application-locked.aspx
...download the Device Security Manager, dock your Polaris and disable all the security.

Excellent Carlos....I was hoping you would take a look at this program for the Polaris!!
Thx
Hi carlos,
thx for your quick reply. It works like a charm now. I need now some "stylish" icons for my selected apps, but thats another problem.
Thx anyway for your great application.
well, on mine it really did not turn out that well....
The cube does not turn any more
all the icon show a black box

Please HELP!!!

Sorry to hear you've had problems. If you hard reset your device, your cube should revert to normal. If you are unwilling to hard reset your device, then if somebody could post a registry dump from a Polaris (clean, hard reset device) then I can post a fix CAB for you!
C
It works
Thanks Carlos, the 2.22pre version works very nice on my Couise.
I have only question:
If I try to change APLauncher layout I get a mesage "It seems that your HTC Touch Software is not recent....", but I can change the apps grid. What the message exactly means? There is any newer HTC Touch Cube version than what is on Cruise installed?
Tnx

Hmm. ...very interesting. Well, I don't have a Cruise/Polaris, so I don't know!
Could somebody please please send me a registry dump? And, if possible, the files Biotouch.exe, Mediahubmini.exe, APLauncher.exe and QDialer.exe from \Windows\ on the device.

Hi teride
No, there is a new build now that does not expire, we're up to v2.24. You can download from www.fatattitude.com/software. Let me know if it works for you!

Help. It's not working.

Hi,
So, I've installed Manilla to my tilt. It looks great, it flows very nicely, and on the surface, I don't seem to have any problems. But, I'm having problems.
In the People tab, I can't add People. I can click, it highlights, then nothing happens. This seems to be the problem for some of the other tabs too.
Email and text work great.
Internet started working once I downloaded Opera, which is now working well.
Camera is fine too.
The music tab gives me an error message every time. "Cannot play the file. The file is either corrupted or the Player does not support the format you are trying to play." This comes up, but I haven't tried to play anything, this happens everytime I accidentally click on this tab, which leads me to wondering if there's a way I can delete this tab.
The Weather tab doesn't work at all. I click menu, and add a location - nothing. I click add a location on the screen, and I get nothing.
Map Search works fine.
Settings - When I click on sync data, it takes me to the sync screen. When I click Communication, it takes me to the about screen. When I click Sounds, Wallpaper, or About, I get nothing.
Lastly, I have the same problem in Programs tab that I do in the People tab. I can't add any programs.
The programs I'm running are
SJ 2DManila 1_00_18192926_00.cab
XDA-Team_Manilla2D.cab
M2DC_v0.17.183.CAB
RRE_Manilla_1.4BETA.rar
M2DC_v0.21.213.CAB
Scotchua_Manila_Fix.cab
TF2D_Digital_Clock_with_Manila2D_Fix.cab
Seriously, I'm willing to have a phone call with someone to try and take care of this, anywhere in the world, I am willing to call.
Also, if someone thinks that the software they're running is better than the manilla stuff, I'm willing to give it a shot. I just really like the touchflo/iphone-ish feel.
Thanks,
I appreciate any help. And I know the answer to my problem is somewhere out there on either the ROM development or the Software sections, but I tried searching and just came up with too many hits.

First of all which ROM are you using Manilla with?
Post your question in the rom thread you are using, or one of the many preexisting manila threads. Thread closed.

(REQ) Boomshine Flashgame to HD2?

Hello all,
Just wanted to know if anyone knows about the flash game BoomShine?
http://www.k2xl.com/games/boomshine/

if anyone has an idea about where one can find this game for WM, specifically hd2, then send me a link!
or, if you can develop it, i would be forever greatful!
thanks guys!
+1 as well! would be great!
You can play accesing with your opera browser (I did).
If you don't have flash in your browser you can search in the forums. There is a cab to fix it, look for something like FixOperaBrowser.cab.

It works in IE. Don't know if the above flash fix is required or not, but I am literally playing it right now on my HD2, in landscape, full screen.
It does get very sluggish when there's a lot going on though.

[Q] Getting date/time and or date/time/location on images

I have an SGS3 4G (i9305) and want to hardcode date and time, or date+time+location into an image and apparently the native phone camera doesn't support this so I am looking for an app that can do it for me.
I have tried LGCamera and Vignette neither of which supports it or I can't find it one way or the other. So if someone knows where I can either find it in one or both of those apps and get it working....
OR can direct me to another app or solution to my problem I would very much appreciate it. I have tried googling for the answer but didn't find anything really conclusive and it seems a lot of people are actually requesting it....
And yes I know the EXIF info is saved in the file, but thats not what I want. I want it hardcoded into the actual image...
But thanks in advance for the help, and heres to me hoping someone might be able to help me
Cheers
Anyone that knows?
