[Q] anyone know what the process scribble is?

i have a process running that says its called scribble... com.htc.mysketcher... anyone know what this is?
Judging from the name, I'd say it is likely to be an application or widget where you can scribble. Seeing how it is an HTC software, I'd say it is their Notes widget.
thanks for the response, that sounds viable but i don't have the notes widget installed .....
maybe it's this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=696193
how i got this piece of delightful information:
1. i went to http://forum.xda-developers.com
2. i went to the forum-search (click on those gears next to the field in the upper right)
3. in the field with the label "Keyword" i entered the word "scribble"
4. i've hit the "search now" button.

Thanks for your delightful information . now let me tell you how retarded you are:
1. i do not have a custom boot animation running
2. Upon first viewing your link to "delightful information" did you stop to think that maybe I wouldn't install this boot animation because it might not be the proper size for our screens?
3. if I had in fact installed this, don't you think I would have enough common sense to know what the process might be considering this would be the name of something I MYSELF had installed?
4. Try posting a useful comment instead of a smart**s one
Scribble is an htc app used for two things. The first is its an app that works with htc's stylus enabled devices (e.g. The flyer and evo view) to draw or "sketch" directly onto the screen. The other thing, and why its on our phone, is it is the app that facilitates htc's built in screen capture feature.
i can confirm screen capture, i took scribble out and bye bye screen capture
awesome, good info, thanks alot to the both of you!

woah, calm down there. My post wasn't meant to sound like a "smart**s" one.
I just tried to help. Although, the lmgtfy might let you think that, i just added it for the giggles.
I truly apologize if my post offended you in any way.
I just wanted to show you, detailed as possible, how i got this (indeed delightful,
because information is always delightful ) information.
You were the one who opened a thread with "blabla scribble blabla"
without mentioning your ROM that you're using
the date you first stumbled over this process
what applications you have may installed or other modifications/configurations you made to your device
what research you've done to get additional information
and finally:
not sharing your research results in your post
You gave SOME information as an answer to my post, but not in your
original post. Why not?
Would you've shared more detailed information on your problem
in your original post, i might have not came up with such a "smart**s" reply.
And i am the one you call retarded. Nice move.
As i understood this forums, this place isn't meant for:
"I have a question xy, can someone give the answer?"
It's meant for:
"I have a question xy, i have done this and that to resolve it, but i still have some open points i want to clarify, can someone help?"
The difference is, that you SHARE the information you have, to PREVENT people come up with guesses (like i did).
Guesses will form up to rumors, rumors spread out, become an urban legend and
everyone will soon swear to god that he or she knows someone who had "xy" resolved by some urban legend... true story.
In addition, this place is not for:
"yo, the answer is bla"
it is for:
"yo, the answer is bla and i have this and that information to back up my claim, go and check up if this works for you too."
Instead of calling me "retarded" you could've simply stated in a proper manner,
that my given information is not useful at all, because of the resolution or something
else i could've easily checked myself but i did not, because i was in a hurry or whatever.
This would've improved my behaviour in this place, but now i am just frustrated
with some guy i don't even know just because i tried to contribute.
Sorry for using my crystal ball, it was foggy in there.
I guess i am back to reading this forums, instead of contributing to them.
[edit] fixed some of many typos ~.~

I think you're really reaching here. In a prefect world that'd be great but this is the real world. There really was nothing wrong with the OP! I understood it just fine and was able to answer the question with no problem. I also think that anyone that took 2 seconds to read it should have understood as well. Also if there were a rule that you had to post links to back up every answer then I wouldn't have even posted the correct answer because I don't have time to track down links for simple questions that I know, I know the answer to.

Good idea.

[Q] Looking for a clickthrough for some firmware or phonegui

Hi everyone,
might sound like a strange question but still:
Does anyone remember a clickthrough for some firmware or phone here on xda? I read somewhere there was one quite some time ago so i dont remember the details. Basicly you had screenshots with linked "buttons" which lead to the next screenshot depending on which "button" you clicked. You could traverse the gui that way without any real functionality.
I am not looking for a real simulator (like there are BlackBerry Simulators) but for some pictures linked by overlaying the buttons in the image with a link to the next screenshot.
Sounds familiar to anyone?
regards,
The_Bender

interesting request message app or format.

Hi all
Just a quick one. Can anybody tell me what phone/message app or icon/theme pack the attached message has been screen shot from ?
Personally I think it's from an iPhone but not sure.
The long and short of it is this message is supposed to be from two different people but I'm using a bit of common and I think they both same person as both bubbles reside on same side.
Not a normal request I know lol any input welcome cheers.

[App][5.0+] Who Posted That? - A game with celebrity tweets

Hello guys,
First of all, english is my second language so there might be somethings not well written .
I'm Leo, a 23 year old software developer from Brazil. Since this quarentine started I have been laid off from my work due to this covid-19 situation. I was working with software development for web and I have always wanted to make apps for mobile, now that im unenployed I started studying this mobile app development area. I have been developing this app for 2 weeks while learning how to do it.
The app is basically a game with celebrity tweets. I have collected about 15 thousand somewhat thoughtful tweets from the top 500 followed twitter accounts to make a game where the user must guess who posted the tweet. It is very hard to find interesting tweets from celebrities so I have saved around 600,000 tweets and used machine learing models to filter self promoting tweets or boring topics...
I made this app more to learn how to do it but my friend told me it is a cool idea for a game, so I'm asking you guys to get a more honest review and in case of this having a positive reaction I would make some promoting to get more public awareness. Thank you for your time

This seems like a fun game. I do have some feedback for it below:
Consider changing the wording of the first screen of the tutorial. The whole "99% of you already figure it out but I guess I need to explain it anyway" comes off kind of harsh for the people that didn't get it.
Speaking about the tutorial, it should only be shown to the user once. So if I download the app and play the game, it should show. When I close out the app and wish to play it again, the tutorial shouldn't show again.
Consider showing the top and bottom options before the dragging starts so the user. It cuts down on wasted time because the user has to swipe up and down each time before picking there answer. Also, this would be helpful if the user skips/is skipping through the tutorial.
