[Q] IGO My Way application - Other Tools & General Discussion

Hi,
I came to you as a normal smartphone user to seek help, i bought new smartphone Lenovo S820, and i am unable to use IGO application on full screen mode, i am currently using the same application on HTC HD2 and it works perfectly fine, please help me with that, i have the Maps and POIs, but i think the issue with application itself, or maybe i need to do some proper modification to SYS.txt file or maybe to APK file itself( iGO My Way Android 8.4.3.179971 ), my new smartphone resolution is 720x1280 pixels, 4.7 inches, and i already attached a screenshot for the actual IGO screen size on my mobile.

Square screen (320x320) on WM device, any experience?

I'm currently looking into getting a new handset, i have been carrying around both my XDA Orbit and my HTC S710 (Vox) for a while now, and want to move onto just having one handset. My criteria was simple, keypad or keyboard with dpad and touchscreen, gps and wifi. I found the perfect phone, the HTC Touch Dual. Which I assumed was perfect until I heard it had no wifi! (God damn HTC, silly mistake!, and although it also has no gps, i could easily just use my keyring gps!). So, reluctantly I had to find another handset and thus I did, the Samsung i780, its all perfect, BUT it has a square screen (320x320)! So I was wondering, does anyone here have any experience with square screens? For example what works well program wise and what doesnt? ect ect. Thanks in advance xda-developee's.
(Note to mods: If this is in the wrong section please feel free to move it, thanks)
320x320 is better than 240x240, but it's still an oddball. App compat is a problem. Attached is an app snap in 320x320, to give you an idea.
My main disappointment from the pics I've seen is that WM seems to treat it as a 240x240 square screen for compatability, so you still get 30% less lines on your today screen than you would on QVGA.
So, upgrading the screen from 320x240 to 320x320 actually gives you LESS text and icons on the screen! Only in the world of WM...
i managed to get my hands on a 320x320 device, and it doesn't like most of the apps that I run. so i have now seen a new hp phone im after, the ipaq 614c. hopefully it will be out soon.
I am also anxiously waiting for the HP614c. Any news by when we can expect it to become commercially available
I'm considering buying a i780, but this problem with WM treating it as a 240x240 screen is a bit troubling. Does anyone know if this will be the case in all applications (like IE, Opera, E-book readers etc.)? If it's only the today screen it's not too big of a deal (at least for me), but if other applications are affected it would be pretty bad.
Here's an interesting read on WM Team Blog about 320x320:
http://blogs.msdn.com/windowsmobile/archive/2007/03/02/320x320-revisited.aspx
Turns out they have a 128 dpi (versus 96 dpi on QVGA and 240x240 Pocket PCs).
I guess the question then becomes weather the DPI will affect other applications, or is it only the today screen that's affected? Is it possible to somehow change the DPI to 96 (which makes a lot more sense to me)?

dosbox

Hey guys, I'm finding so many different versions, so I thought I'd just ask, anyone know what the best dosbox version is for the Touch Pro?
0.63? Or try using Bochs 2.3.7
Uhm, 0.63 of which dosbox port? and can't find any indication that bochs runs on wm?
Possible Solution
I am running a Sprint HTC Touch Pro with "SSS" Windows Mobile 6.5 custom rom. However, Dosbox should also run on Windows Mobile 6.1.
I've tweaked the dosbox.conf file and the arrow keys in the mapper.txt file for Windows Mobile Dosbox version .072 so that it is more compatible with the HTC Touch Pro.
I also had trouble getting the keyboard to work. Many suggest using KforTouchPro (See http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?p=2791652 ) but it did not work for me.
What did work for me is changing the Data value in the registry:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Layouts\e0010409\Ime File
This I changed from JakuKbMgr.dll to msim.dll and did a hard reset. Make sure you have the file msim.dll in your Windows directory on your Touch Pro phone before you do this!
T9 supposedly no longer works, but I don't use T9 anyway.
You will need to create the folders Drive and Drive\ISO on your storage card in order to mount the c: drive and d: cdrom drives with this version. Dos programs should go into the Drive folder, preferably in individual sub folders.
Let me know if this file works for your HTC Touch Pro. Thanks.
Speed
A big issue here has been speed. After finding some suggestions in the forums below and changing the core to verysimple, the cycles to max, and the frameskip to 5, I did have a noticeable increase in speed.

It's still not as speedy as the desktop version of dosbox, but my favorite game Quest for Glory 1 VGA version seems a little more playable now.
I did notice the mouse on screen is a little more erratic when the keyboard is out, so it is best to close the keyboard when using the mouse until a fix for this is discovered or use equivalent keystrokes.

Can a 1ghz Android phone view larger image files (help with my test)

Hello,
I would like someone to help me.
I have some pics that I believe are from a 12 or 12.1 megapixel didgital camera and I would like (when the time comes) to transfer these files to my 1ghz HTC Desire smartphone and view these pics as I do on my computer.
When I tried to view this same file on my old but existing Sony Ericsson K800i, the phone told me onscreen that "This picture is too large to context". but smartphones are more robust, more powerful processor's, 3rd party apps to support more things over the native OS.
I DO NOT WANT TO CONVERT OR DOWNSIZE THEM.
... So I want to push the phone to it's max and see if it will view this resolution higher than the phone's camera.
HTC HD2 has the closest hardware spec to the newer upcoming HTC Desire and I would like if anyone could test the attached image.
Can anyone here with a HTC HD2 help me by downloading this hi res pic and seeing if it opens on your photo viewer? What about testing it in a native photo viewing app from market?
This is the pic here to download and test (2848x4272 res):
sendspace.com/file/dva0p6
(this forum is blocking me from posting live links!)
Tell me your experiences with the image and if it works on your HTC HD2 or Nexus One - I need to know.
Can it first of all, view the image in the native viewer?
Is Zooming in/out of the picture verry laggy?
Is the picture showing up as a thumbnail?
Please help me
any help from anyone?
