Enabling full WM the REALLY EASY SHIFTpack way - Shift General

Check it out (with video):
http://www.modaco.com/content/forum/266537/View-Topic/
Thanks to those who made this possible (primarily by providing USBTool, which I have actually edited to fix the typos)
P

Excellent job!

Yes indeed great job! With this video every newbie can do it

That's the hope
P

Just great!!! Thanks a lot!
BTW: Do you think that I might face problems installing it on a (future) German version of the Shift?

No, you should have no problems.
P

What use is the phone pad cab file?

Inputting text in an easy predictive manner without sliding out the keyboard.
More SHIFTpacks to follow.
P

Can you upload your fixed usbtool.exe? I'm happy with my setup now but would like to lose the typo!
Edit - Don't worry, just decompiled it and did it myself...

This is really, really great! I am not that experienced, but now I am confident enough to do the things that have to be done.
But I am still waiting for my device.
Thanks a lot!

Pantaloonie,
Would you be so kind to upload your recompiled version of USBTools.exe without the typo pls. Thx.

He wasn't first.... You were and without you we wouldn't be looking at lovely screens using 3D icons and iLauncher on our Shifts....
Well done to you both, but first is still first... Better solutions / easier solutions often come out later...

You can buy the Shift at Coolblue (umpcshop.be). They have a shop in Antwerp where you can play with the Shift before you buy it. They have them on stock right now (see their website).

re
First off, THANK YOU PAUL and EVERYONE who helped make this possible!!!
secondly i noticed after doing this hack that you can actually click on the phone icon and do everything except actually make a call. Do you guys think we can replace a file to enable the calling or we have to wait until we can actually make a custom ROM?
Thanks again and keep up the GOOD WORK!!

Which phone icon are you referring to?

Home screen plugins ("CommCEntric" & "Retro")

Hi
I would like to bring your attention to 2 free homescreen plugins i've made.
The first is CommCEntric - it places 2 icons on the home screen to quickly switch on & off the bluetooth and wifi radios.
You may already know of its existence, but I thought to further advertise it
The other one is Retro - it's like an all-new version of RJTime, it's a totally customizable analog clock, and it's a new release (first released a few days ago)
These plugins were also made with "eye-candiness" in mind... because i feel like WM5 and 6 has a lot to do yet in this aspect.
Please see my page at http://web.gemini.dynalias.net/default.asp?c=index_ek.xml
looks good

First Impression: Meizu M8 Skin

I just wanted to give you a first impression of my first skin for WA/WAD, based on pictures about the new Meizu M8. It's not finished, because 've so many things to learn, e.g. how to skin the dialer, PocketCM...
Have a nice day!
i was seriously gonna come here tonite and see if anyone had done, or was going to do an M8 skin or just make the icons. i admire some of the slick look and functionality of the iPhone, but i didnt want to just put an exact clone on my phone and have people thinking i wished i had an iPhone instead. i will definetly keep an eye on this thread.
Duuuuuuuuuude i been waiting for someone to do this. awesome!
Cant wait see it finished
Come on. I fully support you.

Here's a little update, i changed some buttons on the titlebar and removed the title-text. After pressing the icon for Music another menu will appear.
Some questions:
1. How can i export the themes for WA and WAD to share them?
2. Who can help me in skinning the standard WM6 dialer?
3. Who can help me in skinning PocketCM?
Have fun
Thommy
figured i would see if i was getting any sort of xmas...i mean holiday present in new info about this skin. i like those media player shots, are they from the M8?

Stock quotes

Hi,
On my sons Iphone, he gets stock quotes with a push on an icon...
Can this be done with a Diamond?
Something like this maybe? I'm working on it.
Pefect!!! that's it.... When??
JP
I'm not sure yet. I just started playing around with it a few days ago in my spare time. I'll probably post a beta within a couple weeks, or maybe tomorrow, who knows.

WOW...this may save me another grand (by not getting the HD) if you can get that running. I like the appearance and format, as well as the research options.
I WILL DEFINATELY DONATE TO YOU AT THE TIME I DOWNLOAD! YOU ARE MY FAVORITE PERSON OF THE DAY...CONGRATS!
...in the meantime you could look at Stock Manager. Works well on my Diamond.

Right now, just using http://wireless.etrade.com. Not as fast, and interested in getting it into a tab in TF3D (see there is manila files from the HD already on this site, so may get my wish). I like the format of this one much better, so may run both (depending on final product, and visibility of all the markets).
THANKS AGAIN!
this looks really awesome!! looking forward to your app!
please hurry, can't wait any longer...

Hi guys,
i was searching for the same thing and now i use Equity Expert. It works fine and looks ok.
http://www.freewarepocketpc.net/ppc-download-equityxpert.html
I'll leave this thread for posting links to the existing apps out there. For those interested in an "XDA-grown" solution, see this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=441204
I changed the colors from the original design, and posted a working proof of concept, which will soon be the full blown thing. Screenshot below.
that all looks so cute!!! i really can't wait
You guys looking for a Stock app, should relax and lay back and let the Masters/geniuses of XDA Developing, eventually port Black Stone ROM to Diamond.
Then we shall have the cool stock TF3D app.
Dont get me wrong Member GeckoDev, looks like your app is gonna kick assss
Thanks.

I'm all good with competition. I was really just doing it for myself, but I saw a few threads like this one and thought others might enjoy it too. If you like it, help me make it better. If you like something else, that's cool too, post a link for others.

This matches my theme much better, so you are my favorite person today as well. I will run both yours, and the TF3D tab from the HD. I like your format much better. The HD tab will give me quick glance, but your tab will help me make decisions wirelessly before I buy/sell on my E*Trade account.
Fantastic job!
I was the one who initially posted the question about the stock quotes program...
So I am very pleased with the great work there has been done..
Alas, I can not install it because my diamond refuses to install Net CF 3.5.
I get an errormessage about freeing space (lots of space left) and about a "errormessage" 2
Can somebody please help?
I got the ice of changing in the registry:
HKey_Local_Machine - Software - Microsoft - .NETCompactFramework
click on 2.0.7045.00 - 1 to 0
click on 3.5.7283.00 - 0 to 1
3.5.7283.00 isn't even in mmy registery....
Thanks
I agree the Equity Expert is very nice VGA stock quotes applications and its also ready to work with the Touch HD, Omnia and Xperia devices !

Same here. It would be a nice little program if I could make use of it. I love riding my motobike but not on the racetrack.
But I will think of you if I'll ever do
Thanks
That's a nice to have anyway. Cheers.
its great also to test speedup out of track...
under the speed limit law...of course!!!
OK!!!
Nice tip!
Especially the track section and speed per corner is a really nice feature
I'll forward this to some of my friends that still race!
thanks man!!!
I've tried few months ago and...I've noticed it's unusable with internal gps antenna, but it's quite accurate if you're using an external bluetooth gps receiver

ROM 1.27.707.Pie.igomyown [july 2011] (build 21915)

Herein I post my second rom. After working on nearly 20 builds among 6.5 and 6.5.3, I could make sure that this build is surely one of the best.
A notice to the friends keen on 6.5.3; due to low RAM in Opal, 6.5 builds are much more efficient. Anyhow I hope you find it interesting.
In this rom you can find the followings:
Manila 2D + Theme from HTC HD mini MODIFIED
Finger keyboard v2.1 Thanks to Rozenthal
Notification enhancement enabled as default, you can see how it works in the picture.
Showcase 1.0.1b
Nodata
PIM Backup
Quick shutdown
Opera Mini 5.1
EZ input 2.1
Connecting notifier enabled as default
Audio Manager (working properly)
Audio Booster
Volume Control
HTC Endkey
USB to PC pop up working properly
JBlend 2.1
Adobe PDF 2.5.1
S2U2 v2.43 lock thanks to A_C for his permission to use his lock
All appreciations for Pajerm for his aid and sharing packages
For homescreen you need to install Manila Home Weather Updator
Download

You keep alive our old beloved Opal
Really thanks

Why don't you make a 6.5.3 ROM? It looks awesome but I prefer the more finger oriented GUI from the newer builds
Good Job! That very nice! Really thanks!
I tested it today, good look, fast but just a litel problem the phone don't make a call

Like other roms i've seen up to now, i think the problem is with the GPRS. you need to disable it through nodata. then it should work fine!

Dear friend i cooked more than 200 roms with the fololowing builds:
21890-21899-21915-21916-23698-25026-25028-28244-29002-29003-29007-
29017-29019-29020
the ones higher than 23xxx are 6.5.3. be sure 29015 is absolutely one of the best. so light and stable
I have some problem! After using GPRS --> Google maps! I can not call, but I can receive calls--> I have a notification: "Cannot complete the call. The signal may be unavailable or the phone number may not be valid. verify the number or try again later" Help me!
Sorry! I'm not really good at english!
Google translate! I'm vietnamese!
Where can I download this Rom?
