Hello all
I am new to programming, and have been tinkering about a bit after getting my HD2. Took me a while now, but I've just completed coding an app, and would like to share this with the community. This is intended for motorists in Singapore, to view Traffic Cams. But it is quite unlike apps found in the iPhone. This app's features:
> Allows multiple cameras to be selected and displayed. Up to 12 cameras at once
> Save up to 4 Favorite routes, with each route storing up to 12 cameras
> Small program size and quick startup.
> Very fast image download speed
> Refresh images easily, and only if the camera's image has changed.
> For Windows Mobile 6.5 touchscreen smartphones, finger scrollable friendly
> Haptic feedback
Thanks to eboelzner for his wonderful work in putting up the HTC SenseSDK, which is used as the UI for this app.
If it proves popular, I'll work on porting it over to the Android and WP7 platforms.
Let me know if you like the app, and if you face any problems with it.
Update
> Minor bug fix - Error when viewing same selection mutiple times, and reduce file size
Thanks. Will try it out.
Thanks for sharing!
Does it support other city traffic cams?
Sorry, not at this time. Any particular city you're wishing for?
San Antonio, Texas for starters
Awesome!
Sounds so cool! Can we get London supported please?

What are the new/improved features in WM2003 SE?
Landscape mode.
All the rest is just for micro$oft to brag about their operating system :wink:
Kidding, it´s the following:
- VGA and QVGA that support high-resolution displays,
and a new landscape view.
The following modes are supported.
# Portrait / Landscape QVGA (240x320, 96 dpi)
# Portrait / Landscape VGA (480x640, 192 dpi)
# Square screen (240x240, 96 dpi)
# Square screen VGA (480x480, 192 dpi)
Not all devices will support switching between modes, i.e. landscape-only, portrait-only or square-only devices are possible.
- Phone Edition improvements.
Previously, you were unable to compose a number directly from the Today screen, now with this update, it will be possible. It will now also be possible to send a Short Message Service (SMS) directly from your contacts list. Lastly, there have also been some improvements on Voice Recognition features.
- Other Enhancements
Transcriber will gain the ability to use shortcuts. These will let users write a short code phrase that will be replaced with a much longer piece of commonly used text. Shortcuts can also be used to launch applications.
Much like Windows XP does, the Start Menu will now show the most frequently launched application icons. There is a new section in the Start Menu which will display the most frequently used applications. This is divided from the list of applications that appear because they are stored in the Start folder.
The second edition will also get WPA (WiFi Protected Access), which was developed by the Wi-Fi Alliance in an attempt to make wireless networks more secure.
The new version of Pocket Internet Explorer will also be able to force web pages into a single column, similar to the way NetFront 3.1 and Opera does. This will make reading web sites not formatted for handhelds easier.
That is what i got from reviews and news.
Ive seen other changes to, as a nice improved loading Icon that runs much smoother than the original one. (Maybe to create the illusion of something actually loadin :wink: )
I was looking for Emulator(GameBoy/GameBoy Color/Gameboy Advance) for Smartphone and i found a lot of others that does not work or there is no option for me to change the resolution because it is too small.
Finally i found a post from modaco that work on my cingular 3125 wm5/wm6/wm6.1
I believe it also work on older OS like wm2003
Hi everybody,
I've been hunting on the net for good console emulators for the smartphone and came across PicoDrive and PocketSNES. Unfortunately neither of these emulators worked properly on my C550. So I decided to try and fix it so I could play my favourite games on my phone.
The biggest change is probably getting it to work at QVGA resolution, which was a definite improvement to the postage stamp size window. After much tinkering, I think I've reached a milestone and am happy to share it with the rest of the community.
Disclaimer: These programs have been tested on my C550. I hold no responsibility for any damage caused by running them on your own devices.

The best emulator I've seen is SmartGear. It has support for NES, GBC, GameGear, Genesis and a couple others I think. It's going to have SNES support really soon apparently too.
The only problem is it's not free, but it works so well and with unlimited free upgrades, I think it's worth it.
bitbanksoftware.com (there's a dev discussion at modaco)
Wicked. Just what i needed. Thanks for posting this (..and thanks to Parallax for the changes!)
What are game emulators? The name implies a peice of software which enables running various formatted console games. Or is it a console game that has be rendered to play on a multitude of devices. In which case, a more appropriate name would be game emulation.
is this worked for 6.1 pro erofich ?
The PicoDrive is an interesting app.
But isn't it possible to load ROMs from a SD card?
I can't select the card in the menu and with my 64 MB ROM there's enough memory for just 1 ROM.
are there any GB/GBC/GBA emulators for HTC diamond? i tried "PocketGnuboy_QVGA_08_01_06.zip" and i was able to config the keyboard for directional keys and game keys but every time i tap the screen (to launch keyboard), it always pause so i cannot play it anyway.
any other alternatives or solutions please....
i appreciate it thanks...
hahaha... i just found a keygen for smart gear...it's funny coz the keys are dependent to owner ID.

Great idea! Can't wait to test this
I have only tested this on WVGA, but it should work for other resolutions
wow.. nice work will post impressions on it soon
UPDATE : BestWindowsMobileApps.com Review ( version 0.6 )

works on VGA will post a short video soon
Yup works great! Thanks!
Awesome works on VGA can't wait for the rating to be there..
Nice! Going to try it out now
Excellent app.just what have been needing.works great on my kaiser qvga.
thank you.
regards
lohtse
Cool app.
I can't wait to see it with more information displayed within the app though. Like which actors played which characters and the trivia and goofs and that such.
Keep up the good work.
awsome!
dude,
Great job..its quite simple and fast !
i was looking for something smiler, coz no app as my knowledge does that in our lovely WM, I have the reader with IMDB data base, but for the new movies what shall we do !!!
anyway, I think if will add more info, i mean every thing should be shown in the app it self will be more than perfect, and also i think the most info is this :
1-User Rating
2-Plot
3-Genre
4-Actors
But, dude, thanks again and may god bless you
see you in next version bro!
Great App. Thanks.
Ya think Steve Jobs will try to restrict use of iPhone API's?
I applaud you for releasing the source code. Have you considered creating a Google Code project for this?
Blade0rz, many thanks for this really nice application to tap into IMDB's vast resources. Like shabek, I look forward to additional info especially Ratings, Plot/Sypnosis and Ratings. One comment is that I noticed the image aspect ration is distorted. WOuld be great if we can have the correct image aspect ration for posters and actors. Thanks again and I will be tracking this daily
app runs good on my omnia i910. it would be great to have a synopsis of movie and ability to select the actor and have their info come up. also, i cannot go back once i pull up a movie. i have to close the app and reopen it again and perform another search.
this is a great idea and thanks for contributing it. i look forward to future releases
Nice app, it works on my Rhodium WVGA, but has some problems installing.
When installed (I can't choose to put it on my phone or external memory), I can't find it in the thumbnails. To open the program, I have to search it in my Explorer (my machine / Program Files / IMDB Mobile).
It also has some minor problems with the landscape; I can type, but it doesn't respond on the 'enter' command and the pictures are stretched to halfway my screen. The text doesn't go to fullscreen either, only to halfway.
The landscape thing is not a biggy (especially since it's the first beta and you cracked the iPhone program), but am I the only one who's having the installing problem?
But besides this, a great app! It's the #1 app I've been searching for lately and I'm very thankful that you've been putting effort in making it!
[edit]
I've noticed where the installing problem is. When you instal the app, it sends the shortcut to the folder "Windows / Start Menu". Maybe it's because I've got the official Dutch 6.5 ROM, but my programs are in "Windows / Startmenu".
Thanks Mate , very Nice , works like a charm
At the moment,its more of a proof of concept more than anything. I have implemented Plot, Tagline, Directors, Writers, Rating so far from the movie details.
The API also contains data for Quotes, Cast, Trivia, etc so all of those will eventually be implemented.
The app isnt a port of the iPhone one, it just uses the same data. Any interface issues are my fault
Hopefully should have a fully functional beta by the end of the week
can't wait buddy!
Updates:
I can't stop touching my phone!
BIG UPDATE Liquid Version 3 22.09.2012:
So much new stuff: New Objects, New Features, New artworks, New Settings, many Fixes and Changes, improved stability.
New Objects:
-The amazing Color Fluid Surface(including; Liquid Colors, Anti-Color, Particles, a swimming Object, Connections to other Objects, own new sub-section in Settings)
-Full Screen Image(just shifting a little with homescreen)
-New Liquid Beta-Particles (linked to the Fluid Surface to make, 2 fluid physic engines connected driving each other!)
-The amazing Color Fluid Surface:
Get a realy liquid screen.
Make fine colorfull swhirls with each finger or mix the whole fluid witch all touch points.
Continuously auto-selecting the "next most-amazing color" for each touch point.
See the colors mixing transparent on any background.
Finger 4 bill dropp Anti-Color, the mathematical opposite of Color. Anti-Color and Color will be colorfull neutralized against each other. Naturally Anti-Color is invisible but I found a way to show it. It´s enabled on default and will change to it´s naturally invisibility if switching to "Inverse Fluid Colors".
The Engine has it´s "own" swimming Particles and a swimming customizable Object.
Some Objects are connected to the fluid and will swimm in fluid and/or add forces to it.
The Fluid Particles are very fine and have some options, you can select an independent build-in texture to keep them look Particle-like while using any Picture on other Objects.
Fluid Surface code is great but calculated on cpu and needs power at higher fluid resolution. This needs some optimizations, I will try to move some expensive calculations to faster scripts or buffer-array-operations to make it run faster at higher resolutions. Rendering fluid is already fast.
-Static Background Picture. It´s just shifting a little with homescreen. If you select a not-transparent Picture, background will hide the 3D-Android and the 3D-Background Particles, so don't forget to disable hidden Objects to safe power.
-New Liquid Beta-Particles.
Interesting dynamic physics. Connected to Fluid Surface, if active together, engines will move each other, result will move very dynamic or chaotic.
Beta because unoptimized, slow, cpu draining, laggy touch and unstable physics could force close somtimes because moving out of bounds. But It can blast the Fluid
-New Image Artworks all supporting Transparency:
If you want to use old removed Images, you can extract the Images from old apk file.
-New Settings. Added icons to most options. Select Picture direct from Image-Buttons.
As simple and friendly as possible.
Linked gravity-sensor-delay to framerate slider to make it fast or power-safing together.
Added info and contact button linked to this thread(nothing else online yet).
Wallpaper runs fine without sdcard now. Just Cropping Image is not possible without sdcard reasonable.
- Build on Android 4.1.-, minimum required Android 2.2.
Runs Best on 4.1 with "additional features" and best stability. Settings Icons will not be visible on older Androids than 2.3.3 if I am right.
Runs on every phone and virtual device I tested. Also it runs on my TegravII Tablet on Android x86 4.0 R2 but only the 3D-Android is shown and changing Picture works but everything else not. So I will try to get it running complete on not fully compatible Android x86 later.
-Bugs: Nothing is realy broken for me. For left bugs seems just trying again makes it fine.
Loading or Cropping Pictures could still fail on bigger images or incompatible formats. I will rework the image handling a little softer to make this stable. Unfortunately Wallpaper can force close on first start in some cases.
This was next step to get everything ready for more interesting stuff.
Please send some feedback after testing.

Update II : 20.07.2012
I like it now. XDA-Texture is attached right way. I added perlinNoise like wavy movement to get it a little more interesting and flaglike.
No more forceClose in settings menu but still no effect on now selectable options. Next step= Lsd-colors(see LsdCam effect1) and settings. Will see to get the waves more harmonic and with some settings and more(maybe custom) images and it should be fine for first effect.
Have to come more and better.
Update 4 (26.07.12) : LSD-Wallpaper V4 XDA-Version V3! Resize and own Pictures.
Wallpaper should work on any display resolution.
-Options are working. -
-3 build in images or load own picture. Picture will be resized on load. Transparent png working.
-You can toggle waves on or off now..
Wallpaper is funny with own pictures of peoples and faces.
Issues:
If you want to use options to load own foto.png or own foto.jpg there must be the files foto.png or foto.jpg direct on sdcard, else it will forceClose. Will add a album selection with cropping there.
If you toggle waves on or off it will load xda image, so you have to select the picture you want again after toggling waves.
LsdWallpaper is drawing delayed @ 30fps while not consuming much power. Also it should release resources on hide so it should only consume power if you (could)see it. I can confirm the mesh dont moves if phone is locked. Also fps, texture- and mesh-resolution will be adjustable in settings.
This runs on other roms and display resolutions on emu, should run on most Android Phones now. should we give it to all Android phone section? I will not give them 3D if it is finished

You are right, I will try, I will have it also. But this will take some time.
Update: XDA-Version V1! There was not much time but here is the Result so far. Will add more effects and more options (current option is without effect). (Multi)-Touch to see XDA-logo. Note:Image is not attached the way it should and will be but this is also just a nice and free multitouch XDA-Life-Wallpaper. Works nice with the attached analog clock from the Android IDE.
It´s Live-Wallpaper-Whish-Week,
So please post any whish how your favorit dream live wallpaper should be and I will do my best to release it here (if I like the idea).
While porting my LSD-Cam to latest Android-Apis for supporting ICS-Roms I started creating life Wallpaper.
This I am currently locking into Android drawings and will attatch Textures first to my physics and implement many Effects for easy creating intresting and custom Live Wallpapers also for XDA community. This will keep some days, Eclipse-Android is not so diffrent to my mother language processing and everything runs like suspected, it is "just" porting to diffrent drawings and handlings.
so you may post whishes for wallpapers.
Also I will be able to create widgets, lockscreens or any professional android content.
Also I will look int 3D to bring up stereoscpopic content(I am also 3D-Master )
Works very well, looking forward to see more options

Very great: I downloaded AIDE from PlayStore, copied eclipse wallpaper project to sd card and could build it without changing anything.
So I can code and compile on phone in a great way. Thanks AIDE!
Right now I am implementing sterescopic 3d for the evo3d to the live wallpaper.

We've just published a new Android app for inventory on the Google Play Store.
Mobi DB Inventory is a powerful app that can handle complex inventory tasks.
You can quickly add new items, review availability and condition of the items. Add pictures from the gallery or take a photo from the camera. It’s possible to sort and filter entries in the list to organize data in a convenient manner, search for necessary items and save database to SD. Ability to scan bar codes is also useful to quickly add new items.
ness data.
It would be great to get feedback from the community. Your rating on the Play Store would be cool as well.
Just give it a try!
Cheers,
Ekaterina
Had a good look at it and it works well!
My only suggestion would be to do more with user interface to make the experience as pleasant as possible. I noticed with the demo database, for example, that the Employees table didn't seem like it had been designed to fit onto a smartphone's screen; the table was wide and the screen was in vertical orientation, and therefore involved some scrolling to see the rest of the table. A way to improve on this would be to force horizontal orientation for wide tables on smartphones. This way, the table will be much more visible.
