Swype it, cab it! - Windows Mobile Apps and Games

Have you seen that input method?
Swype, check it out! They show with HTC's Diamon later in the video:

does anyone knows more about a cab ^^?
---EDIT 1---
here more information:
http://www.swypeinc.com/product.html
------------

Yup, cabs are not yet publicly available, we'll all have to wait. And if this is going out to anyone but OEMs we'll have to wait even longer, right now our hopes are on a demo version or something I guess.

Same discussion here.

oh not seen it...
thank you!
close it! delete it!

Tried the cab from modaco on Touch HD. Find it kinda sluggish.. not so much the swyping part, but the words appearing pretty slowly.
This could be because XT9 is present too. Didn't see this in the video on Swype website. Don't know how to turn it off. Anyone?

Swype? No thanks!
Swype? No thanks It don't works!!!! I prefer Dasur SlideIT it works perfectly on my Sony Xperia X1 and on the Htc Diamond 2....I think Swype has some kind of problem to get in to work or maybe is not compatible at all.....they make me laugh when they appear with their video copy like Apple-style Brand and try to shock the world with a new invention when on the markey there is already better product. Please Swype- men do a better job next time. Ciao

SLIDEIT
Yes the name is DASUR SLIDEIT, you can even try it for one month then if you like it you buy it...if you don't.....

Any kind soul can help - how to make HTC XT9 predictive word suggestion not appearing when using Swype? This makes Swype sluggish.
I suppose this is because this cab is meant for Omnia, which do not have XT9.

try to find the setting of ezinput...

btw,this function isn't working in the cab file provided.
Statistical Tracking
Keep track of your speed using Swype’s built-in statistical tracking.

just installed the cab couple days ago, it works pretty good on my fone.

eh, Swype works perfectly fine here, but the cabs floating around are English-only. I'm going to have to guess that's not the language you're wanting to use..

I've tried both and in my view Swype is infinitely superior - it even looks slicker. I'm on an HD2 mind you, perhaps the processor and larger screen help.
It's worth noting that the original thread for Swype was closed down at the request of the Swype developers as they were working OEM only. I also saw a thread today suggesting Swype was to be made more widely available...who knows!

meh i don't like this one :/ I just can't write anything on this app

where the hell can i find swype for my hd2 , looking every where.....

A 2 second check on google for swype cab found it for me!

Swype works way better than I expected, I've been looking for a good sip for one handed operation and I can use this with my index or thumb and its as quick or quicker than my X1 hardware keyboard. This is pretty much the best sip I've ever used easily, only problem is I'm having problems where it switches back to the horrible default windows mobile keyboard very often... might have to try sipchange or something... But very impressed with swype, from the same creator of T9 input, its very versatile easy to correct and add words so it's my sip of choice, I just gotta figure out why it keeps going back to the default keyboard

if the sve rom aku 3 is better then the english so

i see people say its better version and few people say they put pach from sweden to englisg so give us the pach so we all can put the sve version?
i gotta tell you man- you are extremely unclear...
how hard is it to write posts people will actually UNDERSTAND?
Weird posts
At Least He Stopped Using Capitals.
The patch is easy to find i believe its under the wiki.
But the swe version is the fastest, it is still missing some components yes it has wpa2, but no mms and some other apps are missing as well
...and the language patch doesn't patch everything and still leaves quite a lot of Swedish hanging around. It is enough to make the phone useable to a non-Swedish speaker though.

huh??? I patched the English cab and almost everything in English. In fact the only visible Swedish is my voicemailname and an entry in my setting (and maybe a word here and there...), the rest is complete English...
I'm using the SVE rom...
I tried the new Test rom for HTC... I tried the new leaked Cingular Rom... and I decided to go with the Swedish rom patched to english.
The Test Rom for some reason wouldn't let my phone go into sleep mode... so it would drain my battery real fast... that and the device got physically warmer than it usually did... I didn't like that at all.
The Cingular rom seemed alright... but it was lacking WPA2 which isn't very nice... and seemed a bit more bloated... especially with that little startup video... I think subconciously 80% of why I changed it was because of that.
With the SVE rom:
It's true that you can't edit the MMS settings... but the application appears to be there... maybe you can import the settings via registry. I don't really use MMS all that much, but I'm assuming you could get it to work that way.
I also copied all the short cuts from the swedish start menu in the windows folder over to the english Start Menu to get Internet Sharing, Streaming Media and MIDlet Manager.
This one seems pretty stable to me so far and does seem faster. Not sure on battery drain as of yet, but seems to be holding well.
The only issues I've noticed so far... there seems to be a slight delay in the sounds as I click around... seems like the sounds are always playing catch up. Also... when i get a new email... the subject line isn't bolded like the old one... so it's a little harder to see where the new emails end and the read emails begin. But that's a small annoyance.
TCPMP player seems to work much better as well... I did a quick benchmark of a 320 x 240 divx about 180bit rate... and got 299% using the ATI driver. There is no screen tearing when paused... so I like that.
I'm using radio 1.21 here in California... and it seems a lot more stable than 1.27 as well...
Hope this information is helpful to someone...

I have figured a way to fix the mms settings, I took the mms files from the windows folder off of the english version and put them on the SWE version. I am not sure which file specifically does it, but I know that I wasn't asked if I wanted to overwrite any files so I assume its all of them that are missing.
If anyone wants this I can zip the files and put on the ftp

New Version MusicID Shazam 1.3.16 Tactile QVGA + VGA ( Fix Font)

hello everybody
I found a recent version VGA but I converted to QVGA, you certainly know this software, this version is unlike other tactile versions available to date
Admin edit: software removed after a complaint from the copyright owner, this software is not freeware or shareware and therefore considered warez, warez is not allowed on the forum.
​
Quentin Post:
I know, I know...I'm late to the party. Hopefully the quality of the release will make up for the tardiness. I'm still running a Kaiser (just couldn't convince myself the Diamond was actually better--and I'm still crossing my fingers that the Touch HD will get released with TMO 1700Mhz support).
Anyway, without further ado...this version of MusicID is based from the 1.3.16 source from 1800pocketpc.com which is of course released by AT&T. The changes are as follows:
Converted for QVGA (320x240) support. The conversion was done using image resources from the non-touch screen version so they look just fine. Furthermore all fonts have been converted as well. (I'd like to give credit to lepsyfou here, he did give everyone something to use at least even though the images looked poor and the fonts were large. Were it not for finding his original conversion that got me hooked on the app itself I probably never would have made my own conversion).
Removed UID information from query strings. For those that didn't check, the application for download on these forums (and other sites) actually makes all requests under the guise of someone's account (presumably whoever released the app). I won't post their account # here but suffice it to say that if they ever shut off the service everyone using that app would find it stops working. Hopefully that won't happen here.
Removed all AT&T specific features. This also means that all the buttons present after a successful identification have been removed. #1 they are completely useless for anyone not on the AT&T network; and #2 they were pretty much pointless (from my perspective) in the first place. As a side benefit see the next item.
Due to the removal of AT&T specific features I found it convenient to download a larger cover image photo for the album...maybe this will be enjoyed by others as well
Updated the help pages and removed redundant (or now unused) entries.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
If you've never installed any version of MusicID before simply install the cab. If however you have installed a previous version pay close attention:
Remove any previously installed version of MusicID.
It is absolutely MANDATORY to remove the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\MusicID folder and its contents. If you're an advanced user and are using any of the conn* entries you can leave those but remove all others. If that last statement doesn't make any sense to you then simply remove the entire MusicID key (and all entries contained therein) prior to installation.
I highly recommend removing your \Application Data\MusicID folder and contents. This is due to the fact that the application now expects 150x* size images. The only issue with old images should be a slight off-center display though so it is up to you

Is there anyway you could adjust the Text size? It still doesnt all completely fit on the screen.
Deff dont want to come odd as an ass. Just a thought to make the QVGA version even better.
Thank you

Thank you.

No biggie thanks again
Was reading about this last night on Pocketnow.com. tried to installed and got the unsuccessful message. Was in ATT store today looking at the new Samaung epix, just to see what it was about, would never give up my Tilt for it, but is nice and love the cursor, very responsive.
Now if you have a Tilt, not sure about other cells, or maybe if you have ATT device dial from you cell *43# and it should get it for you. Also might look in your start up might get put there.
I love this program. It actutally found a song from a Musical from 1951 while i have my Sirrus on Broadway. Unreal.
Hope this helps someone.

Opera 10 Different UI for Smartphones!?

Hey guys,
I was playing with a friends touch pro2 a few days ago and when I opened Opera 10 I saw the weirdest thing. There was a much slicker UI then there is in the normal version. It even showed the time let me put it simple, It was the most BEAUTIFUL browser ive ever seen! The only odd thing was when I clicked on the addressbar the onscreen keyboard didnt pop up, so u had to use the hardware keyboard. So then I deciced to check which version it was and compared it to the one on my hd2. Strange enough it had the same version/build number:s. So for days I searched the web/xda to find info on this different Ui, but all resulted in nothing! Then suddently this morning I realised... It might be the smartphone/non-touch version! So I installed that one and tadaa.. There my baby was in its fullest glory, fully touchable and all! If only someone could get the onscreen keyboard working, This would me be the most perfect slick lookin browser available!
I made a few pictures check them out below!

[APP/DRIVER][9Jul] Pinch to zoom ON ANY DEVICE IN OPERA! TOTALLY NEW VER!

Hi ladies and guys,
I’ve finally managed to do what I was trying to do since about 4 months ago. Pinch to zoom on your device in browser/Album/more.
First, I want to thank to many people, from what I remember it is l5v3y (C, Windows, ...), Chainfire (reverse engineering within IDA), Da_G, thx1200 (ZoomBar mod), supbro (GreenButton app), Twopumpchump (psychic support) and from what I don’t remember, many more.
So, this new version practically SIMULATES PINCH TO ZOOM FROM HTC HD2, so IT IS FLUID and BOUNCY
Just as I wrote earlier, THIS VERSION 2 IS WORKING ONLY IN OPERA! GMAPS AND ALBUM ARE BROKEN BECAUSE OF THIS NEW WAY FOR NOW!!
CURRENT DEVELOPMENT STATUS AND INFO HERE
9th July Update - spent another many hours on new algorithm, borrowing HD2, working, testing, swearing etc.
14th June Update #2 - use FIXED version, the normal one breaks GoogleMaps!
14th June Update - fixing many stuff, now Opera and GMaps work way better!

3rd http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LmLC5CkRwjs
Please, don't reupload these three, thanks. If you want to make one as a review or anything, sure you can do
Download stats:
alpha - 2286
alpha2 - 60
alpha2fixed - 3105
Downloading and running howto:
Download this attachment and install the cab on your device. Now you will have in Start new folder named Pinch To Zoom with two links - Enable and Disable.
Don't try running ResistiveSystemPinch.exe file twice (or more times!), otherwise it may crash your gwes (not sure why, I close everything)!
For those with problems running it in Opera, try this (thanks to kain144000!) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=6866597&postcount=237
Try downloading compatible Opera (thanks to NorcoFox)
Also note, that if you just launched PTZ, it reacts AFTER you first change your topmost window, so try going to eg home and then back to Opera!
ENJOY!
to keep me working (I spent many, MANY hours on this)
Donated:
- $12.5 - Scrufboy
Any $ is appreciated and will receive betas (if there will be any, there is not much to betatest)!
Compatibility list
Opera 9.5 - tested, works (on some builds) - with v2 it's broken!
Opera 9.7 - tested, works (on some builds)
Google Maps - tested, works - with v2 it's broken!
Opera 10 - doesn't support this type of stuff or I'm not aware of that
HTC Album - working on supporting it
Frequently asked questions:
Will it work on WinMo 6 or 6.1? YES
Will it work on QVGA, VGA, WVGA, HVGA, ..? YES
How does it work? Magic...
Can you add support for application XYZ? If it is doable then later yes, but not right now.
I noticed you keep one finger still, do I have to? Since resistive touchscreens report only one finger, I detect movement between those two fingers. If you move both, it won't detect any change and it will fail to work! So yes, one finger must be still.
It doesn't work for me!? I'm sorry, I can't do much without getting access to that device. I guess it must be some kind of uncompatibility between Opera version you have. GoogleMaps should work for everybody though.
Can you give me source code? Yes, I can.
And will you give to me? No, I won't. I'm too greedy!
Can you make this for Android/Symbian too? No, I can't.
Tested devices:
HTC Touch Pro 2 -- WVGA, really good user experience
Known problems and their solution:
All except "it doesn't work for me" are gone?
Nice one -I'm impressed! look forward to trying it out.
looks great. I'm waiting to try it on my Blackstone
I'm salivating already! can't wait to test it
Amazing work!! Can't wait to try it out!!

+1 I m gonna check this thread everyday waiting for a download link!!!
Oh I should notice, that for best experience (hate this world after MWC ) is required WVGA screen because of digitizer resolution, but it will work on any screen (resistive)
And yes, one of the other testing devices will be hopefully soon friends' HTC HD and mine Kaiser once I turn it on.
Will work on WinMo 6.1 devices?
Sure, WM6.1 will even work better, because it doesn't have that f...ing gestures
Excellent!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I simply cannot express in mere words how much I can't wait for this. By the way, Prague is the most beautiful city on earth. I had the pleasure of going there in 2007, and was thoroughly amazed.

Hi OndraSter
Allways surprinsing us
Thanks for another super work
Will it work also on non HTC devices, i have Samsung Omnia i900L.
looking forward to testing this on my topaz
Sure, only requirement is WM5 and newer I guess. It was compiled on 6.5.3 SDK but hey, it is still WinCE so theres no reason why it wouldnt work on other phones.
Oh the other requirement is zoombar or pinchtozoom from HD2 capable Opera, since Im using messages from those drivers. But I guess newer 9.5 and almost any 9.7 can do that, album 2.x and newer I guess will work after adding it too.
And inbox in Tmail might be problematic with wm6.5, I need to find way, how to disable gestures events or I need to study them, what are they capable of.
PS, Im still thinking about my next project, what should I do... Just joking ofc, I have now plenty jobs to do.
Great Work!
U did it. Now it's possible to make a zoom of the pictures album using our fingers.
When will be released?
Thanx
Looks great OndraSter, looking forward to trying it on my diamond (any idea on Opera10/mini5 support?). Thanks.
Very nice work mate. Can it be used on HD2 phones without issues?

[Q] Keyboard

Any keyboards out there? I've tried all the ones I could find.
Resco
FKB2
Stock
They all suck.
The only one that is okay is boogiecornejo's revised KB. Anybody know of any project or any keyboard that is good?
I like Swype, SlideIT and Touchpal
I agree... Swype rocks!
Swype is good, but not for typing fake words.
All I can say is, that the 10$ I spent for SlideIT was one of the best invests I ever made As I am writing messages in both German and English, SlideIT for me was the best solution. Switching languages and having separate user dictionaries is very easy.

Agreed, i alternate between Swype (currently v2.0 as is faster than 3.9) and SlideIT all the time, both are so good but from a langauage point of view, SlideIT wins for sure.
Also takes up alot less memory vs Swype. Also has the cool features of having the SIP built in and the abbreviations that you can teach it. I just type a few letters and my saved passwords type which is cool. Just a shame there are on skins out there as it does look crap lol.
I find it does often type faster as you dont have to double swoop around repeated letters etc but when letters in a work are close to eachtoher, sometimes SlideIT just doesnt get it, then i use Swype and it types it no probs.
Apparently SlideIT 4.1.0.3 is to be upgraded soon but ive been hearing that for a while lol.
