Twitodo - Windows Mobile Software Development

hey guys
I'm kinda new to programming, done a bit at college and now and then i read up about it at home but i know the very basic skills. anyways i thought i would test myself and see i could come up with an idea for an app.
its not a windows mobile app but i suppose in a way its for developers (can save progress of development and tweet it to followers). the app is called twitodo and it basically saves a todo list to a txt file in the install directory. it can also open a text file from a custom directory. it can also tweet the todo list to your twitter account and you have the option to view twitter in a browser window.
the ui is ok i suppose but it could be alot nicer.. would apreciate it if someone could do a few graphics for me. also if anyone has a link to a good guide for making installers because im not sure that my program install correctly, i think you may have to run it from the program files directory.
anyways feedback will be apreciated very much, anything i can add or remove at all just leave below please i really wanna make this app better, but go easy its my first program unless you count "hello world" then its my second lol.
EDIT:
Changes:
permissions to write file at startup fixed (moved TodoList.txt default location)
fixed crash when user doesnt select a file in load todo list window
Attached Files Updates!

just thort id put a pic of the ui on so u can see what it looks like

Bottom softbar blocking java apps

For some reason, and this is only after I upgraded to kavana's 6.1 ROM, a few java apps are being cut off by the bottom bar. The first two I've noticed so far as jmIRC and Virca. The text is cut off by the bottom softbar and is not visable until other people (or yourself) types about 4 more lines of text. This is really annoying and makes the app pretty much unusable since you can't see what people are typing until other people start typing things as well. I'll see if I can upload a screenshot from my phone sometime today.
I have a similar issue with the GMail application. When I try to use the options, the bottom softbar blocks the pop up windows for commands, and I'm unable to use it properly.
Here is the picture of my screen when trying to use the app. There is probably 3 or 4 more lines of text that you cannot see for the bottom bar.

I noticed you were using that crappy irc client, i reccomend zsIrc, google it and get the zip not the cab, as the cab won't install, also its for ppc so ya can't set anything up in the menus, but there is a .ini file that is fairly simple to edit and set up all your settings..
good luck.
It's to do with the version of jbed on the phone there is a thread about Google Java app that says about this

Graphical-3D-Interface for Windows P7 - PPt.Concept

Hello to All!
I started some Workshop about Future of Mobile Windows Devices for
- Interface and OS and
- Hardware-Sugegstions
and i want to invite all of you to be Part of this and add your Concepts, Comments and Ideas.
In my Powerpoint-Presentation i worked out some Concept for A 3D-Interface for Explorer, Messaging, Filereader and some Applications-Manager (instead of A Homescreen). Here is the Link, this is about 20MB, because i put in A Lot of Screenshots and Sketches of my Idea.
Within this, you can overview everything on the first View - and there you find Illustrations of an animated graphical 3D-Interface for easy exploring with Thumbnails of everything that is running.
My Idea includes A Concept for making Sessions of what you are doing (opened Programms, Web-Sessions, Multimedia-Sessions, Sessions for Volume, -for Settings, so that you can share whole Devices at once, ...).
Everything is presented to you in horizontal-moving Rings with Icons Rows and Thumbnails of Folders-Content:

"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
You can preview the Content of A Folder in Background-Icons (Levels) as Thumbnails when you hold your Finger on an Icon,
Menus and Settings and Explorer+ Readers are sorted and put together in 1 Interface - that is my Vision for Windows-Phone 7 Series and later Versions.
-Within the Apps-Manager you watch:
I also want to share with you my Idea of revolutionary Hardware-Features for Windows-Devices and how that could be realized.
Please feel free to let me know your Thoughts for some animated Interface and let's talk about your Suggestions for Future of Windows-Mobile Devices (-Should Win. be more the Way of MP3-Player or of A Tablet-PC?) and please publish Illustrations of your Thoughts and Concepts here, also Comments of the new MS Phone-Concept.
"Let's create Future"
While innovative, I think that looks very over-designed. Not sure that it would be very user friendly... perhaps too flashy.
nice
but i think Microsoft had gone through lots of designs before they chose the new one!
Wow you sure seem to be talented! But not quite sure if you're using it in the right place!
Too many icons

What do you mean with "install"? You just have to copy them to your application in Visual Studio or Blend to use them!

[Q] Contacts.apk Padding and Spacing

Hi.
I've started to theme my sgs with darky v9.5 for my needs.
And now I also wanna mod the app's xml-files.
I read about it in some tutorials and I understand that trying is the best to learn.
But I have 2 starter-questions:
1.) For example I have a concrete modding-wish: The padding on the sides of the contact list seems very annoying to me. (Pointed in pic). I wanna reduce it and downsize the whole list to get faster overview. Somebody already modded this or knows the xml-file to do?

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
2.) Modding (esp. system apks) seems to be very time-consuming, because as far as I know the changes can't be viewed directly (with any tool), but the apk have to be pushed to phone and reboot.
Is there a way of faster modding / previewing the changes with the emulator or sth?
Thanks for your help,
Max

I dont know any faster method.
I know something that could help you in situation while you are hammering your head against the wall, I mean -> you just 'cant get the layout right, no matter you try'
Before I begin:
You would need to be familiar with eclipse and creating layouts there.
So..
Create new android project in eclipse
edit layout.xml; paste the contents of the file you are modding...
Workaround all errors that WILL happen
You will see layout rendered in xml file wysiwyg...
Its not easy, but if NOTHING works, it really helps.
This was the thing I did while modding the phone to have big caller picture...
Thanks, if nothing else works, I'll try this

[APP][2/5/2013]ShowTabTip: a workaround to resolve touch keyboard issues

Hi to all members of XDA comunity, today I'm presenting you my new tool, this one is very small and simple

ShowTabTip
Some users used to have problems with text forms (with touchscreen too), the touch keyboard didn't appear and it's very annoying to open osk or the touch panel manually
This tool is very tiny (<900KB) and run in background, only an icon in notification area will be show
This tool check a clicked/tapped textbox and opens the touch keyboard
This is the first version, so sometimes it might not function, biu I've tested with a lot of user, so iThink that it functions correctly
Sorry for bad english
Waiting for feedback!

Official Article on my website
Does not work on Acer W700, Windows 8 x64. Additional components are required?
As I writed before, this is the first version and sometimes the keyboard did't appear, butI don't know why and I'm trying to find a solution
This app don't require anything other as far I know...
Is this based on an autohotkey script?
Yes, and the script is based on a script that i found on ahk forum here: http://www.autohotkey.com/board/topic/89058-help-converting-autoit-script-to-ahk/ with some edits to make it smarter
This does not work... have tested on Dell Latitude 10 x86... icon appears in taskbar, but I click the address pane in internet explorer and nothing happens, still have to open keyboard manually.. Its a shame because that is something that really pisses me off about Windows 8 and I hate using metro mode all the time because apps only run full screen..
