Wanted: Hermes Webcam App - 8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development

Could anyone please be so kind to point me in the direction of an app to make the Hermes camera into a webcam, i have tried a couple of time limited shareware apps, one worked and one didnt.
Does anyone know of a freeware app, or something along those lines?
Muchly appreciated!

yes it does. running right now
Its a bit fiddly to setup and you need a PC connection via Activesync
Also, might want to try microsoft portrait http://research.microsoft.com/mcom/portrait/
some have reported problems though with WM6 based ROMS

i have played with portrait on wm5, but i dont think it will allow you to use the phone as a webcam on your pc, but does work with msn on your device...

M$ Protrait Does not work on WM6.

Thanks. That software looks good. One thing - the camera appears sideways - is there some way to make the image appear the same way up and the camera?

Don't have that setting. Only General, Front Sensor, Network. Running WebCamera Plus v1.05. Is there a later version?

Its accessible on the PC application.

Okay, so this is the problem now. I finally found the program and installed it. Now i Can't seem to connect online via USB. Is there a problem with the program? I uninstalled the program and still can't connect online via USB. Any leads? I was able to connect only just before installing the program.

I can't reproduce your problem. My device networks fine via USB after using the webcam software.
I have activesync installed, but don't have it set up with a partnership for my device (using oggsync instead). Does your activesync sync with your device?
Anything unusual in your network connections settings?
Have you tried a system restore to an earlier point?
HTH.

i had purchased the software and e mailed the company for unlock code.
Given my device id to them but the cab doesnt work.
i had changed my rom with black 2.0 and my radio is 1.4
any idea what could be wrong?

Do you mean that you changed the rom after emailing your device ID? If so, it could well be that your device ID has changed - have a look in your system info screen (as directed by ateksoft) to see if it matches what you sent them.
I had similar issue after changing roms - they sent me a new code.

slow framerate...
Is anyone else experiencing slow framrates???? I'm getting 7-8 fps at most ... ... definitely not liking the webcam at the moment... LOL
pity it doesn't use the mic on the phone

The smaller the resolution that faster you will get... but by fast ... i mean 7 fps ... LOL

The framerate depends on the resolution and quality settings you are running at, if you turn the quality and resolution down you can get a good frame rate.
I run the resoultion at 640 x 480 and quality 70/E and the frame rate is fine.

PDA2K Task Switcher/Closer

Can anyone recommend a good tasr switcher/closer that actually works on the PDA2K.
I've tried vBaar (used on XDA2) but will not work in 2003SE.
Magic Buttons - great but screws up when the phone is on.
Any suggestions?
Mike
I use Pocket Plus, no problems yet.
wisbar and wisbar advanced are doing great too...
pocket plus seems to make my bluetooth headset to stop working...wisbar advance makes your phone unable to show incoming calls if the phone app is not initialized. I use handy switcher, it's ok.
Try using wisbar advance from www.lakeridgesoftware.com

I use Magic Button and it works ok. I do change it from on to off to get the notifications to work though (but all you have to do it tap/hold the icon).

I use handyswitcher and it is ok. I like to use my device one-handed, however, when I click on close all applications, it resets the phone. Instead I have to go to the phone screen and select close all except active. There is no option to just close the active program. I have mapped handy switcher to one of my hardware keys. If someone has something better where you can map it to a hardware button and close or switch programs let me know.
I use handy switcher and when i chose close all it works fine. No reset.

It does work much better than the previous version, but still doesn't handle screen rotation very well.

As mentioned by other writer, WA hides all phone and signal strength icons. Plus I had trouble receiving incoming ph calls. Chris is working on a PPC phone edition version which I understand is almost ready for Beta testing. SPB Plus 2.2 version is working ok here.

I use SPB Pocket Plus... it isn't freeware, but it is absolutely the best task managing app I've found for the PPC.

Hi Mike,
Just tried this program, it's great speedy program. I am not sure why, but the front in smallmenu comes out quite big (unlike the one in their website). I looked everywhere to see if I can reduce the front size. Any suggestion?

Thanks for that very useful reply! Despite the original posters claims I was trying to gather the opinions of others before I installed the software on my phone.
Clearly you're either new to the internet or have so much money that you can risk your expensive phone by installing unreliable software.
I also use sportypal, whenever i have a time to go cycling, i always keep record on the track with it, and till now i haven't had a problem with it. Plus now there is a newer version 1.0.2.

what do you meen by data package?
This software is very easy to install, you can do it directly from http://www.sportypal.com, The application starts, acquires satellites connectivity, then you hit the “Start” button when you are ready to get moving. When you finish you need to connect to their web site to upload your exercize and that's it.

I believe he's asking if he needs the internet/data package from his carrier in order to use this. I believe the answer is no. The GPS in this software doesn't connect to the internet like google maps does.
Aha I understand, I was thinking about the same. The answer is no, you don't need internet/data package
Love this app, I have been using it as well.
thnks for this link. its a great s/w

It has no Live Wallpaper support because it's still alpha release.
And this feature has lower priority than other stuff that have to be fixed.

It won't have live wallpaper anytime soon. They are not worth fixing because they drain battery crazy fast and are darn slow on our devices. I think they were disabled on purpose in FroYo.
hi, can you tell us, what is working and what no in this build?

Hi, dedalum!
On Blackstone BT does not work, wifi and data works, camera.... I'll test it! (I think it wont work) --Tested, but the news are bad!
The old kernels does not work with Gingerbread, so camera does not work, yet!
I tried two different kernels, for the camera testing and for the anti-audio stuttering MOD, in the both cases it cant reach the homescreen.
As nasko_spasko mentioned, camera seems out of reach for the moment...
I also asked in VirusCrazy's camera testing thread, and he also gives Gingerbread "low chance", something for the future...
But I should add that there is (probably more than one) kernel out here that fixes audio stuttering, I'm using Gingerbread with a modified 1253 kernel from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=11169582&postcount=76
Audio and Wifi great, battery life ~ 20-30 hours (using periodic data for ClockSynch and some weather sync, but nothing else)
Cheers,
Robbert

The audio is the most important issue for me.
I have GBX0A running with 1255 kernel. It's the only one that doesn't give me audio-stuttering since Gingerbread won't boot with the 1498 kernel.
The latest kernels 1260/1262 both work but give audio-stutter.
Only thing i'd like is a new rootfs with keymapping for Blackstone like in the rootfs from 2011-01-31.
very nice build. i have one question though... why is the clock lazy?
it is like the android minute is a second short. is there a fix for this?

Am i the only one having trouble with the keyboard not showing up properly? it's only about 20px high and it's impossible to see there are different keys but if you drag your finger around the popup with the different characters show up so it works but seem to be scaled incorrectly...
I tried long pressing on a text field to switch keyboard and the chineese keyboard works just fine but that doesn't really help me...

Keyboard is a known issue.
Recommendation: get Thumb keyboard from Market. It's free and has different layouts and looks.
Fix for alignment squares: use old ts-calibration file from another build, or use the one attached below. Just remove the extension and put it in the same folder as haret and startup.

Use build in Japan IME. It has Latin characters on the numeric keyboard (like in non touchscreen phones). Should be enough to log into market and download gingerbread keyboard.

Or just put the apk inside the AndroidApps folder (it's inside the andboot one). It will auto-install at boot.
I like the app "Gingerbread keyboard" though. I use it in froyo too.

Hmm works perfectly fine on my Surface, see the attached screenshot. I had to wait for at least 10 seconds before anything at all showed up and nearly 30-60 seconds for all of it to load. How long have you tried waiting? Have you tried doing it using only the desktop IE? I used the IE App when making this screenshot.

You're welcome! I almost always use the IE app for browsing on my surface, even when working with my type cover instead of the touchscreen, because the App is running way better than the desktop browser. It may be a bit limited in control features, but most of the time that's not a problem.

Battlefield 4 Commander App broken?

I can't get it to load into any servers on my new 8.4. The app will load and I can select a server but then it just hangs at a black screen forever. I've tried letting it pick servers and I've selected a server through Battlelog and get the same result either way. I've tried on different wifi networks too so it isn't a network issue. Anyone else run into this or am I the only loser wasting time playing Commander at work lol

It doesn't work for me either, it's a tablet specific issue for us, as it works just fine on my Nexus 5.
I sit at the black screen too, I think it may be a resolution issue but I'm not 100%, the thread with the apk on here explains a bit more on how to fix the black screen issue but it's for phones running, but I assume it would work for our tablet as well but I'm not running a rom so no Xposed framework to edit the obb.
