Weather Watcher

Not sure if any of you could use this weather tool I found. You can put in any zip code or city, state or most countries. It has a small profile of about 200kb, decent graphics and five tabs (Currently, Hourly, Daily, Detail & Alerts). You can have several cities or zips.
Cons are:
1. Weather not located on today screen.
2. Takes some time to upload all the information but you can have it automatically or manually update for you when you open it.
PS: I've tested it and it works with WM5-6

please work
thanks . nice one

This is by far my favorite weather app, especially since it is free.

[APP] Shopping Cart v 5.3 available now!

** version 5.3 available now! **
Information:
You no longer need to uninstall previous version(s) before installing the latest version!

This requires .NET compact flash 3.5!
This supports Windows Mobile 6, 6.1 and 6.5.
Supported resolutions are 240x320, 320x320, 240x400, 480x640 and 480x800 in both portrait and landscape modes.
Downloads are in post 2 or you can use AppToDate to update it.
If you create your own language files please upload them to this thread so I can include them with the application!
Upcoming:
Add language support for configuration utility and save/open/browse dialogs. Currently only the main application supports alternate languages.
Possibly adding price information option per item (this would toggle-able by a setting).
Possibly adding finger gesture recognition for different things.
Possibly adding SMS support.
Possibly adding Today plugin.
Possibly add D-pad support.
Version 5.3:
New features:
Shopping Cart Companion - You can use this tiny application to easily create and manage lists (both standard and master lists) from your PC and transfer them directly to your device.
Fixes:
Optimized code greatly for larger lists. Opening a large list, e.g. 40 items per tab over 3 tabs opens in 5 seconds instead of 30. This has a huge impact on older / slower devices.
Version 5.2:
New features:
Shopping lists now have the typical elastic rebound effect when a list is scrolled beyond the beginning or end of a list.
Fixes:
The position of a shopping list no longer automatically scrolls to the top of the list if you click an entry that is below the "first page" of the list.
Version 5.1:
New features:
Save As menu option for new lists.
New setting to save a new list automatically.
New option under Settings/General/SIP. Show automatically when entering: Enabled, Enabled in Portrait Only, Disabled.
Fixes:
Exporting all marked items of a master list to a regular list doesn't work when using "mark all items".
Exiting from the master list without saving or anything says that the user tried to save the masterlist as a regular list.
Various errors with save dialogs not appearing and files not being saved.
Version 5.0:
NOTE: You will have to uninstall the previous version because of the name change! Otherwise you will have both applications installed!
New features:
Landscape for all supported resolutions. This is currently only within the main application screen, not the settings screen, save/open screens, etc.
New initial GUI upon start of application (enabled or disabled by a setting)- a "home" screen with more intuitive quick-launch buttons to access application features.
New option on long-press-hold over an item - copy item text to input field.
Language files included have been updated with the new entry above and need to be translated. When you do, please upload them to this thread.
A new setting to prompt a user to overwrite an existing saved cart rather than just doing it.
Application will be renamed to "Digicast Solutions' Shopping Cart" from "cRaCKwHoRe's Shopping Cart"
Fixes:
Intermittent application errors / crashes when deleting / duplicating items / opening and closing SIP.
Application not remembering last opened list.
Saving a list sometimes doesn't actually save it. This is fixed.
I am trying to prevent where a list of items scrolls back to the top if you are scrolled down and click an item.
Version 4.2:
Fixes:
Scrolling issue resolved.
Inability to add new categories/tabs resolved.
Resampled and resized images thanks to aiiro.
Version 4.1:
Fixes:
Opening a saved master list would cause an error. This has been fixed.
Installing the latest version of Shopping Cart will no longer overwrite your customized application settings with the default ones. They are now saved between versions.
Adjusted size of item container on different resolutions so that all items can be seen completely when you have a larger list.
Other:
Still trying to duplicate the "scrolling" issue affecting some users so that I can fix it...
Version 4.0:
New features:
Duplicate item (context item)
Rename item (context item)
Move item up/down (context item)
Check / uncheck item (context item)
Rename tab (context item)
Rename tab (menu item)
Add tab (menu item)
Delete all items (menu item)
Sort list (menu items)
Addition of master list functionality
Addition of Help screen
Addition of AppToDate support
Changed application installation location and registry location to "Shopping Cart" instead of "Shopping Cart v x.x" for compatibility with Sashimi and AppToDate
New setting for prompting user to clear cart
New setting to disable single-clicking an item to check/uncheck it. Disabling it requires a tap+hold and select from a context menu to check/uncheck an item.
Fixes:
Application now shifts/resizes when SIP is displayed so you can see everything (may add a setting for this, what do you guys think?)
Lots of new language items so language files will have to be edited
Tweaked some code and fixed a few memory leaks to make application faster overall
Saved lists are now automatically saved as Unicode files to preserve special characters.
Version 3.1:
New features:
Multiple resolution support - now currently 480x800, 480x640, 320x320, 240x400, 240x320. I only have a 480x800 device but on my emulators everything looks fine on the other resolutions. Let me know what you find!

Functionality to remove an entry altogether.
Tabbed cart lists to separate shopping carts for different stores.
Custom/enhanced save/open/browse dialogs. Default Windows Mobile ones are awful.
Context menus.
New configuration utility to change application settings, rather than modifying the registry.
Numerous new user-configurable settings and options via configuration utility.
Saving a list now retains the marked/unmarked status of a list when it is saved and re-imported.
New menu item(s) to check / uncheck all items in the cart list at once.
Fixes:
Slow scrolling issue.
Rearrange status and item list columns so longer items don't display over or behind the status checkbox.
Unicode character display issues with language files.
Labels no longer cut off in different languages.
Other:
Changed checked-item image to green checkmark to match "Manila" styling.
There are 15 language files now included, thanks to all the contributors for making the changes from the previous version. Old language files are not compatible with this release and will cause an issue when the application loads if you try to use one.
Had to temporarily remove color and strikethrough options for compatibility. Will try to add this back in for next release.
Version 2.1:
Fix startup issue for alternate language roms.
Remove scrollbars but still allow scrolling, to be more like other touch-sensitive scrolling applications.
Ability to customize the color of checked / unchecked items if MultiColorFonts is enabled.
Multiple language support.
Moved application settings into registry rather than .xml file.

Downloads
The files are below. Shopping Cart Companion needs to be extracted. It requires .NET 3.5 framework on your computer.
Also, here is a link to all the .NET 3.5 compact framework installation files.
You specifically need to have:
NETCFv35.wm.armv4i.cab
NETCFv35.Messages.XX.wm.cab (where XX indicates your phone's language)

Hi thanks, that's really cool. I will use it as a to do list (I had raised this question a while back). It's not quite as good as getting it as a front page tab, but it will suit me fine. Cheers!

Fantastic, thank you.
Just last week I was thinking that it would be better to have a program that I could easy mark off what I have got. Now it is here. Cool
Thanks

Looks good...thanks!

Looking mighty fine crack . Lol @ forgetting cab file in first post.
/a

great work buddy.

Any one has ried on qvga?

Hey just tried this and on QVGA and it works but it seems that the spacing is slightly out compared to yours on the WVGA? Have a look
Apart from that all seems good!

great work, thanks!

A while back I wrote a very basic utility where I could write a shopping list and use it on my phone to go shopping with rather than taking a piece of paper and a pen with me. I got tired of forgetting stuff LOL! I use it every time I go to the store. I just thought I would share it with you all.
You can manually type in items to add to the shopping list or you can type up a list in Notepad or something similar. If you want to import a list in the application just save the file as a text file with each entry separated by a carriage return (new line / Enter) and copy it to your device. Then, in the application click File and Open and browse to where you copied the .txt file.
When you tap an item (click it) it toggles strikethrough text style, in effect marking it as found
Attached are a few screenies.
I'm open to suggestions as far as modification and such. It is designed for and works for the Touch HD as far as resolution is concerned. I don't know about other devices as I haven't tested it on any as I have no others.
Also, it requires .NET compact flash 3.5.

You mean the home screen being where it shows the clock, your missed calls, voicemails, calendar events, etc. right? If so, I wasn't aware things could be added to that. If they can I could look into it.

saw your announcement in Dutty's area, and got it. Work like a charm, man, thanks. I have been looking for a super simple one like this for long

Simple and useful...
Thanks!!

v2.7 and 2.9 Functions
BEFORE USING v2.8, PLS SET ENSURE THE REGISTRY HKCU\Software\HTC\Manila\EnableLandscape = true
v2.7 - only for manila 1921xxx
v2.9 - only for manila 19222xxx (Landscape version)
There is a minor change to the previous versions (v2.6 and below). You can now access the Setting screen by swiping top to bottom. Horizontal swiping is removed and goes back to default where you can access other tabs with the exception when you select Panoramic wallpaper which will pan the wallpaper left/right instead.
Firstly, let me point out the functions of the corners of the screen for different modes.
Max Manila Setting Screen can be accessed by swiping from top to bottom
Menu/Skin Customization (v2.9) - this is the additional selection option appearing on the MENU (accessed from homepage right softkey). What it does is to allow you to skin your notification icons by selecting jpg/png files from your album. Here's how it works.
v2.9 cab will come wt a folder called "MyFolder" in \windows. There are 8 icons 64x64 png files in there which basically is the previous and current version icons.
You can move this folder later to storage card and rename the registry path \HKCU\Software\HTC\Manila\Max_Folder. You can leave this blank and the album will open to the default path. I find this much more user friendly especially when you have tons of folders to search.
You can create your own icon in any square size; for eg, 128x128; 100x100 whatever. It should re-size back to 64x64. File can be jpg or png if you want to have transparency. Later, just dump it into the folder on #2.
Normal (Full) mode - this is your default screen with taskbar at the top and softkeys at the bottom.
Top Left - Navigates to People screen
Top Center - **REMOVED on v2.82** (previous version Cycles Clock Array)
Top Right - Show Battery Info (v2.82 - you can now edit the registry to link to your app.
\HKCU\Software\HTC\Manila\Max_SKTPath = your app path
\HKCU\Software\HTC\Manila\Max_SKTArg = your app argument
Bottom Left - Navigates to Home screen
Bottom Right - Navigates to manila Settings tab ( not Max Manila settings )
FullScreen mode - this can be enabled through your Settings screen. Your taskbar and softkeys will disappear and a fullscreen is displayed. The first time after you activated the screen. Press the HOME button to ensure that the screen fully covers up the task and softkey bars.
Top Left - activates StartMenu
Top Center - **REMOVED on v2.82** (previous version Cycles Clock Array)
Top Right - on v2.82 display taskbar information ( previously display battery info )
: Battery - Press to open up battery info
: Sound Profile - Press to navigate to sound profile setting
: Data connection/signal - Press to go to communication manager
Bottom Right - Lock screen (v2.8 onwards). This can now be changed to link to your app. Tweak the registry below.
\HKCU\Software\HTC\Manila\Max_SKPath = your app path
\HKCU\Software\HTC\Manila\Max_SKArg = your app argument
Bottom Left - Activates the softkeys panel ( when activated, your softkeys will appear for 2secs before it closes itself ) (v2.8 onwards)
Lite mode - removed on v2.81. You can anyway set your manila back to default by using the settings from the setting page below.
Here are the new screen for the Settings page. Most functions retain for now (I'll add more to it later) but I have shifted it around a bit. Arrows basically scroll more settings.
SETTINGS
Wallpaper - there are 3 types of wallpaper here.
a. BG4all - this is the wallpaper which will automatically load up when you select through MENU/Home Wallpaper/Weather Wallpaper. Wallpaper will show on all tabs and is fullscreen on v2.8 onwards. If you leave it, it will not display anything. Setting is "B".
On v2.9, there will be 2 seperate wallpapers. Portrait wallpaper and Landscape Wallpaper which you can select from MENU/Home Wallpaper. This will be HQ wallpaper. So, make sure you pre-format your wallpaper to 480x800 or it will not come out correct.
Portrait Wallpaper - selects your portrait wallpaper.
Landscape Wallpaper - selects your landscape wallpaper. The wallpaper will be rotated 90deg. So, make sure that you rotate your landscape wallpaper -90deg before loading.
Animated Wallpaper - this has now been tweaked to activate the animated components on your Portrait wallpaper. It has been disabled for landscape.
Remove Wallpaper - removes both portrait and landscape wallpapers.
b. Full - the file is a 1024x768 size jpg called "MaxBackground.jpg". This wallpaper will fill up fullscreen and all tabs. It is used in 3 different functions.
"P" - stands for panoramic. When this is activated, you can swipe left/right to pan the wallpaper.
"F" - stands for full. It will remain still at where you have previously panned.
"H" - stands for home only. This wallpaper will only show in home and the other tabs will have the default wallpaper (read below)
c. Default - this is the manila wallpaper that requires app like HDWall to create. Rather than using the latest file of 512x1024, I have reworked a fullscreen default wallpaper using the old filenames. If you are using HDWall, go to config and select profile "TouchFLO v2.5 BETA - No Compression - All Tabs".
4bfcbbee_manila
54612042_manila
In landscape mode, this will be replaced wt another wallpaper. The construct of these files are as such
0509ab83_manila : Left
- 512x512 manila qtc
- actual wallpaper dimension 480x480 (from top left)
47fb5656_manila : Right
- 512x512 manila qtc
- actual wallpaper dimension 320x480 (from top left)
Assuming you have a landscape wallpaper of 800x480. Below are some instructions how you can make your own.
- for the RIGHT wallpaper, crop from the right to 512 and expand your bottom to 512
- for the LEFT wallpaper, crop from the left to 480 and expand right to 32 ( your total width should be 512 ). Do the same for the bottom.
*******on v2.9, this has been removed due to it's redundancy*******
Call History (Call H) - toggle the call history on/off. This will now reside on top of the calendar. Voicemail alert has been added for v2.8 onwards.
Calendar - you can now select option 0, 1, 2 or 3. 0 will not show the calendar bar on the screen. Pls make your own adjustment to avoid any overlaps as I have removed this feature due to the inclusion of VGA which complicates the matter.
Slider - for those who does not have this feature build into the ROM, you can toggle the icon off. What this does is that it removes the first layer of the tab icon which makes your transparent slider looks much nicer when sliding through all the tabs. "ON" means slider effect is switched on.
Mute - you can now activate a silent "S" or vibrate "V" mode when you put your phone face down ( that means front screen facing the floor )
AutoLock - when turn on, your phone will goes into LOCK mode when you turn your phone upside down ( that means rotating your front screen 180deg )
Alert - here you can select whether to display the shortcuts or notification icons on screen. Also note that on v2.8, the notification icons will only display in fullscreen landscape mode only with the exception in normal mode, when your tab icon is retracted.
NS - both shortcuts and notification icons will display
S - only shortcuts will display
N - only notification icons will display
OFF - both will not display
Hide Tab (previously called Tab Icons) - in v2.8, this has been renamed to Hide Tab to avoid confusion. This only works in normal screen mode. When "ON", it will activate the retractable tab icons. In fullscreen mode, this will disabled for the sake of accessing softkeys.
Weather - this is where you toggle your weather animation. It is best to toggle it off to gain speed especially when you are loading wallpaper for BG4all.
Shortcuts - you can select 12/16/20 shortcuts for WVGA and 9/12/15 for VGA.
If you have problem accessing your shortcuts, go to the registry HKLM/Software/HTC/Manila/Home and look at the numbered folders. Chk out the "IsSet" and set it back to 0. Remember to do a SOFTRESET afterwards.
In lanscape mode, shortcuts will change to 3 columns for WVGA and 2 columns for VGA. (not tested on VGA device yet bcos 1922xx not ready)
Fullscreen - this will activate the fullscreen mode. Fm v2.8 onwards, the fullscreen softkeys can be accessed by pressing the bottom left while in fullscreen mode. The softkey panel will appear for 2secs.
Titanium - this will deactivate TF3D and goes to WM6.5 Window Default UI. To get back to TF3D, just go to StartMenu/Settings/Home/Items and select HTC Sense.
Goldfish - my own hobby app which will create an animated fish swimming around your screen. To close the app, just double tap the goldfish.
LTab - when "OFF", this will retain the original tab during landscape. Your other settings must be Hide Tab = OFF and Fullscreen = OFF. This is normally to be used when you want to set back to default settings.
Resolution - select "W" for WVGA and "V" for VGA phones.
Clock - this now replace the big analog clock button and incorporate all clocks into one including a full blank screen. As for the big analog clock, you can move the clock around by press+hold and move. This clock also has 3 functions to it.
Left - will toggle the inner face of the clock
Top Right - goes to world clock page
Top Left - cycles the size of the clock
The text on the setting button is labelled as below :
FA - Flip and Analog Clock
SA - Spring and Analog Clock
D - Digital Clock
AA - Dual Analog Clock
MF - Medium size Flip Clock
LF - Large size Flip Clock
S - Large size Sprint Clock
LA - Large size Analog Clock
AC - Huge size Analog Clock
OFF - Blank Screen ( removed Notification and Shortcuts )
********The text "My HTC" on sprint clock can now be edited from the registry************
\HKCU\Software\HTC\Manila\Max_TextName = text displayed on the sprint clock
\HKCU\Software\HTC\Manila\Max_TextSize = font size
Rotation - to use this, pls ensure that you do not have any external program activating the rotation of the manila or you may encounter conflicts. Below are the 3 functions :
OFF - deactivate all rotation but maintain the album/music rotation
R - rotates your screen clockwise when your turn your phone right. In this mode, your album/music turn landscape in the normal direction but can also be rotated when turn the other direction.
L - rotates your screen anti-clockwise when you turn your phone left. In this mode, album/music rotation will be disabled and replaced wt the landscape mode.
B (only on v2.9) - rotates both ways. Album/music rotation will be disabled and replaced wt the landscape mode.
When phone is facing up ( screen on top and flag ), it will not activate any rotation event.
3D - this basically toggles the look of your shortcuts between normal and 3D like when you scroll it up.
TBar - this basically toggles the display of fullscreen taskbar indicators. Can only be activated when not in fullscreen mode.
PAnim - cycles through the type of rotation animation for portrait wallpaper. Here's the description of the text.
OFF - no animation
SD - slide down
SU - slide up
SL - slide left
SR - slide right
RA - rotate anticlockwise
RC - rotate clockwise
O - increasing opacity
FU - flip up
FD - flip down
? - random
LAnim - cycles through the type of rotation animation for landscape wallpaper. Here's the description of the text.

SR - slide right
RA - rotate anticlockwise
RC - rotate clockwise
O - increasing opacity

S - scaled down (lower position)
ST - scaled down; hidden when no alerts (lower position)

v2.7 WVGA Fullscreen Softkeys
Here's the status of the WVGA Fullscreen Softkeys. It is not finished yet but I thought it will be good that you all can help to beta test it. You practically have now a pretty smooth operation in fullscreen mode as I have tweaked the script to remain in fullscreen mode especially after exiting from album and music.
Home - ok
People - ok
Messages - ok
Mail - ok
Internet - softkeys showing but disabled due to some issues for now
Calendar - intermittent hang problem when switching calendar. To release, press HOME and you can get back to calendar again
Stocks - ok
Album - ok ( when changing to landscape, the screen just momentary disable fullscreen in order to trigger certain events )
Music - ok ( Left bottom button in landscape fixed )
Weather - ok
Twitter - ok
Footprints - ok
Settings - slight modifications. Pressing settings will go straight to the settings page instead of opening up another menu for All Settings and I've added a left softkey to go back to HOME screen
There's a new tab, not sure what it's called "Documents"?? which I will work on when I get a chance to flash the new ROM.
As for the VGA version, this will come shortly as I have to work on the original VGA files instead bcos the WVGA version will mis-align some stuff for VGA.
BTW, it is ok to install/uninstall on top of the the main cab as both of them do not share any files in common.

For Manila 2.1919xxx Users
It is very similar to the original 2.5 theme except that the fullscreen and rotation do not work. In place of the rotation button, you can now toggle your retractable tab icons to stay permanently. Pls also note that the manila components for manila 2.1 is different. The only components which you can download and replace is the panoramic background on post#4.

Looks simply amazing. Waiting anxiously to see this one.

wow... pretty cool
great work u did here m8!!!
Could you maybe pls share manila name of new "clock-wheater-area"?
/e: or how did you do all that at all?

oh my dear god!this is amazing!!
Thanks a lot man for your great job!!I love this very much!!plase release the .cab as soon as possible!Thanks again!!

Bugs, Problems and Fixes:
Problems with fullscreen mode using MaxManila 2.7SE:
Download and install the fix files from this post. Thanks to ceesheim.
Problems with 'Portrait Wallpaper', 'Landscape Wallpaper' and 'Remove Wallpaper' options not showing under Home tab menu (instead getting standard 'Weather Wallpaper' option):
::Update:: I haven't been able to gather enough information from people with this bug. Please take a look at my post here and download the Home_Pages.xml file. Copy it to your Windows dir using Total Commander and soft reset. If this works please report it in the thread or pm me. The ManilaFull.xml attached to the post may or may not be compatible with your Sense 2.5 build; try it at your own risk!
MaxManila installs an edited 'Home_Pages.xml' file to enable these options. If your rom is not WWE it will use a different file called 'ManilaFull.xml'. A fix is described here. Thanks to Intruder73. I hope to get a ready made 'ManilaFull.xml' file posted here as a patch some time in the future. In the meantime yome has detailed the edit here.
Rotation/landscape problems:
Different manila builds have different levels of support for landscape. Individual rom cooks also enable or disable registry values and the GSensor as well as installing third party rotation apps. This will all affect the way landscape is supposed to work in MaxManila. Check the following (these are all suggestions that may help; I have found no definitive solutions):
Registry: HKCU\Software\HTC\Manila\EnableLandscape = false (This is the correct setting)
Apps: GSensor '(Diamond 2 GSensor.cab') is installed, no third party apps installed (i.e. ChangeScreen etc.)
GSensor whitelist: Download and install BsB GConfig and make sure 'Manila.exe' is removed from the whitelist
"It won't work on rom xxxx" problems:
Simple answer: Try another rom then. Complicated answer: Does the rom use CFC compression? twopumpchump has made a patched mode9.dll file to get it working Download and instructions here.
Some Quicklinks not working:
Neither Max nor I have been able to replicate this problem so Max can't fix it. A workaround is to go to the MaxManila settings page and cycle the number of shortcuts. When you return to the Home tab the Quicklinks will all work again.

Great Max.
Think it is good with a new tread. The first tread is very big and a little impossible to find the answer becaurse of the constantly new manilla files.
Looking forward to see the new program from you and the components.

You have to use MaxTTM to convert that. I've written a tutorial on this but without the images ( run out of bandwidth )

its only working on cooked roms?
or we can try it on the stock one 6.1?

Hmm.. I'm not into lua scripting.. - but could you maybe tell me the manila file name of the black background layer behind the clock?
At the moment I'm trying to get these things more transparent..

So you have a stock wm6.1 running manila 2.5
This is only for manila 2.5 AFAIK.

Maxycy, this is phenomenal. Thank you so much, at last I've gotten rid of that bug/feature of the clock scrolling 1 hour and 2 minutes every time I change to the Home tab.

Installed CAB on Miri Rev7 (not 7.1), doesnt work.
Any idea?

[DEV][GAME/PANEL] Bubble Advanced Beta (Update1)

UPDATE 1:
- i guess i did find the "move to right" bug where bubbles did not move correctly in some cases. so it should work fine now.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
i plan to develop a flashlite puzzle-game panel for the X2 ;-)
but before starting a "bigger" project i did a "redesign" of bubble breaker to test handling and some issues with flash lite and (of course) compatiblity with my x1:
Bubble Advanced (Beta):
gameplay:
its the same as in bubble breaker. the basic strategy is to "cluster" one dominant color to get as many points as possible.
differences to bubble breaker:
- empty collumns will not "close" automatically.
- if you doubleclick on a single bubble you get special moves (move all bubbles to left or right).
- coming soon: more specials and difficultys
you are free to test it and report all issues
so lets go:
PC-VERSION (BubbleBeta.zip):
-------------------------------------------
Info:
this is the PC reference-version to compare speed and behavior.
of course this runs very smooth
Online Demo:
BubbleBeta
or:
Installation (PC):
download and extract BubbleBeta.zip
doubleclick the BubbleBeta.swf (or drag and drop into a browser if you have no flash standalone player installed)
THIS IS ONLY FOR BETATESTING. PLEASE DO NOT REDISTRIBUTE THIS SWF
Known Issues:
none (so far)
X1-GAME-VERSION (BubbleBeta_0.8.0_English (Game).cab):
-------------------------------------------
Info:
this is the "non-panel" version. it runs with the flash-lite standalone player.
the flash-lite standalone player is not the same as the Sony Ericsson ActiveX Deployment Flash Plug-in. you need to install it additionally.
Installation:
- download and install Flash Lite 3.1 Standalone Player on your X1.
- install BubbleBeta_0.8.0_English (Game).cab
you will find the game in you games folder
Known Issues:
- slow but playable
- "tap&hold" is a pain in the a**. but there is no way to disable the context menu in the standalone player.
X1-PANEL-VERSION (BubbleBeta_0.8.0_English (Panel).cab):
-------------------------------------------
Info:
this is the "panel" version. it runs with the se-flashlite-deployment plugin (also used by various other flash-panels).
Installation:
- download and install Sony Ericsson ActiveX Deployment Flash Plug-in on your X1 (if you havent already installed it).
- install BubbleBeta_0.8.0_English (Panel).cab
- add the panel to your panel-manager
Known Issues:
- slow but playable
- (r3a rom and "old" panel manager): fast doubleclick on the same bubble is somehow blocked. you have to wait like 1 second to click the same bubble again. tip: you can still fastclick another marked bubble (next to the first clicked) to avoid this. it seems to me this is a problem of the panel manager.
- (r3a rom and "old" panel manager): after activating the bubble-panel the "old" panel manager quits if you press the panel-button again (maybe this will work with the new panel manager).
BETA RESTRICTIONS:
--------------------------
- highscore will not be saved
- screen rotation (landscape mode) is not supported
- no sound
QESTIONS:
-------------
can someone please test it with the r3a rom and the "new" (inofficial) R3A panel manager ?
thanx and have fun,
- QuadWord

Update1:
- i guess i did find the "move to right" bug where bubbles did not move correctly in some cases. so it should work fine now.
- did some _minor_ speed improvements
.cabs in the first post are updated.
- QuadWord

panel doesn't work with new panel manager. tried softreset, still nothing, maybe because i run a stock rom
and for the game itself... well, its slow and the context menu is annoying but the graphics look really good and the extra features are making the game more interesting.

austrianX1user:
thanx fou your feedback!
sadly there is no way to disable the context menu :-(
i will however look into the panel issue.
just one question: normally you can double-click on bubbles to remove them. in the "old" panelmanager you have to wait like 1 second anfter the first click before clicking the second time. did you have the same issue with the "new" r33 panelmanager?
- QuadWord

Im using a custom rom which i believe also uses the new panel manager (Touch-IT 7.2) and the panel doesn't appear

to enable x2 - flash panels on the x1 you need:
- the activeX Deployment
- the .cab below
BUT: it turns out there is no "stable" way to run x2 panels on a X1. i can only provide the "best possible" way. if the panel is more complex it will bring down the panel-manager sooner or later.

Please help a colour blind man
HI
I love bubble bobble, and this is a fun new version. I'm looking for new stuff for my pre-ordered HTC HD2.
Please could you consider allowing a change to the colour set? I am, like a fair proportion of men, slightly colour blind in the red/green area. What that means is that there are two sets of balls that both look green, and two sets of balls that look purple. This makes the game unplayable for me.
The version of bb that I currently play has a black and white option which changes the colours to different patterns of clear, lines and hatches. That's OK, but it would be SO much cooler if I could pick my colours from a palette.
Jim

[win32] API - New Sense interface Look 'n Feel V1.6.4 (01/28/11)

I have created a win32 API for C++ that mimics HTC's Sense UI Look 'n Feel... More informations on my website: charlie-soft.com
DOCUMENTATION : http://charlie-soft.com/Software/Manila_SDK/html/
This SDK is designed for speed: .NET applications are usually very slow to load and not fluid. I use some tricks to improve speed, like drawing only area having changes, scrolling without backbuffer or creating textures for text (GDI text drawing was slower…).
What’s in the box:
PNG resources for VGA/WVGA. They can be easily modified. SDK will resize automatically the resources if your device has a smaller (or higher) resolution!
Design your app for VGA, the SDK will adjust the layout for other resolutions!
Full Finger Control.
Source files (.cpp and .h) of library.
Source files of example.
Class:
MyEditControl: Edit box with different width. Easy get and set text. SIP detection: scroll Edit area.
MyItem: Button (3 types), checkboxes and switch (TripleState!). Event on click, visibility and state can be changed/get easily.
MyPanel : This element is not visible but is used to bring together elements. This element can have a title and dotted separator between each element.
ChildSection : Contains a subsection which is displayed with a sliding effect.
MyLabel: Print text with different font and color.
MyPictureBox: To print image (png, jpg, bmp, gif…)
MySelector: Like the HTML select. Scroll screen if list is out of screen (see video below).
Section: A section is a panel which can be scrolled up/down. It contains the different elements.
MessageBoxSense: Four type of messagebox: info, Ok/Cancel, Abort/Retry and Yes/No.
MySlider: A simple slider of any size... The min and max values can be changed easily, as the cursor position.
Change log
V1.6.4
Added the possibility of multilines in edit control
V1.6.3
Added possibility to add picture to slider of ChildSection...[bug solved]
Explorer bug solved
V1.6.2
Added an event when user click on screen...
V1.6.1
Memory usage improved
V1.6
Loading of image is now safe (use video memory by default but if problems use device memory)
File Explorer
Icons
Speed and memory improvement
V1.5
just add possibility to change color of text for hover and selected...
Minor bug changes:
items out of screen no longer try to redraw
text of items recompute their size when changing
background color is correctly changed
The SDK is now multi thread safe!
Add the possibility to right clicks (long press)
Add the possibility to hook windows message (WM_ACTIVATE for example)
Add the possibility to have a bottom bar.
Add the possibility to have a background image (landscape and portrait).
If the app is allready started, close the new instance and show the previous one.
MySelector can be scrolled if the list is too long.
Text is now printed with alpha transparency.
Compatible with any character (hebrew, vietnamese...).
MyPictureBox can now be stretched.
Memory usage reduced.
V1.4
Minor bugs fixed
Add the possibility to show MessageBox without a main application.
V1.3
Background can be transparent ! (see this app for demo)
Native drawing (DirectDraw was too slow in landscape)
Slider can have a force feedback (see this app for demo)
V1.2
MySlider added
drawing process rewrited: less redraw->less computation->less CPU utilization -> battery consumption reduced
Loading optimisation
The layout is now independent of screen resolution!
top taskbar is occassionally cleared [fixed]
White screen, touching the panel brings it back [fixed]
landscape items position incorrect [fixed]
V1.1
landscape compatible
Abort/Retry added to MessageBoxSense
TripleState Checkboxes and OnOffItems added
FAQ
is QVGA resolution supported?
Yes, SDK will find the correct resolution and select the appropriate resource resolution. The SDK will delete the other resources...
have you planned to extend MessageBox types to Abort/Retry?
Yes, to create one:
MessageBoxSense::show(L"Hello",L"Try again ?", MESSAGE_ABORTRETRY);
is this landscape compatible?
Yes but having refresh rate issue. Seems to be a DirectDraw problem (S2U2 was subject to the same issue...)
If someone know how to solve this problem, send me a message !
Back button too slow.
You can change the speed anim using this function: changeSpeed(double nbMilisecond)
why aren't you including some TripleState Checkboxes and OnOffItems ?
Both are now included:
new MyItem(1,5,15,ITEM_IS_CHECKBOX,ITEM_THIRD_STATE,L"My third checkbox (Third state)");
Other apps
Wake on Wan is a new app which use this SDK. Sources are available!
Quick shutdown is a software which use this SDK too. It can turn off, restart or set the phone in sleep mode. Sources are also available!

Good work ! thanks for sharing hope devs will use it.

Hello my friend !
Great work !
( C'était exactement ce que je cherchais en c++ pour mes MFC smart device !!! )

Great Work, Thx for the source!!

Really great work!
but I have two questions:
- is QVGA resolution supported?
- have you planned to extend MessageBox types to Abort/Retry?
thank you
regards

NIce work
Altough i don't really know what todo with it... i instalt the example.cab and it was really smooth!
Only one thing if i go to other controls and i want to change the value then the onscreen keyboard should show up right? But it doesn't.... So i slide my qwerty keyboard open, and in landscape i get an error message: DDERR_SURFACELOST(back buffer)
I dont know what it means... is this landscape compatible?

Good job man !

Nice works !
I just have a feedback, I find too slow the animation when you click on the "back" button, is there is a way to speed it up ? (or disable simply the animation)

SDK Manila
Hello all !
I will try to answer all your questions. So :
- is QVGA resolution supported?
No but easy to implement... Just resize resources to correct resolution. I will post resources shortly.
- have you planned to extend MessageBox types to Abort/Retry?
If it's something wanted, I will do it.
- is this landscape compatible?
No, not yet. But will be in next release!
-Back button too slow.
I will add a method to set the speed of animation... in the next release
-Bug with hardware keyboard
The onscreen keyboard don't show up and I don't know why... I will look around for a fix.
If a developer wants to translate .NET applications into C++, feel free to post I will try to help you!
There is still lot of work, but I will try to do this quickly!

thank you for quick reply. I need this extension for my app "htc menu loader" (link in signature) to migrate from .net to c++
again, really great work. You are making something that HTC should have done months ago.

Great project !
I don't know if you notice but I disabled the bottom taskbar... Do you think that I should add the possibility to enabled it? I saw that your application needed one...
I hope you will find my SDK easy to use !

Hey, this looks awesome.
Question though: I'm just shy of clueless when it comes to making an actual working app. Is there any place I can go to read/learn the coding I will need to actually use this?

Application win32 c++
You can use the example application included into the SDK to learn basic stuff or you can download this application: WakeOnWan. It’s based on my SDK (here are the sources).
You need some basic knowledge about Object-oriented programming and C language. I try to explain how to use the SDK in the example using comments or on my webpage.
I will also post a short tuto in second post...

Very, very nice! The demo runs very smoothly on my stock Touch Pro 2.

What's sad, is when I was young, I used to be able to code in C. Made my first video game when I was 6 on a Commodore 64 (ok i dated myself here) Now, can't remember very much

C++ ? It's just like riding a bike!

Sweet thanks! Just downloaded an ebook on c programing.

Sounds (and looks) great, although there are still to many glitches (like not working in landscape etc.) which are preventing me from using this package.
But I have one question, why aren't you (all) including some TripleState Checkboxes and OnOffItems ?
I need them often but you cant find such controls online - not to speak of sense.

TripleState Checkboxes ?
Hello,
the TripleState Checkboxes is a simple feature I can add. To be sure, TripleState Checkboxes will looks like:
And tripleState On/Off:
I will include them in the next release... Be patient, the next release is coming soon and adds support for portrait and fixes a few bugs...
