Where did I park my car? - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps

I tried searching, but without any luck. Does anyone know of a program that you press a button when you leave your car and then use the GPS to later locate your car? My 8125 is dieing and can't wait to get the Touch Pro.
Greg

Save the location of your car to your favourite locations on the GPS program (TomTom or whatever you using). Then you can find it.

Cool...that will work.

No2Chem started building an app specifically for that. I never tried it, and I don't think it is still be actively developed, but it should do exactly what you are asking for. Just another option.

Arrfffffff...But with the GPS lag and some approximative positionning on the Diamond and the Touch Pro, don't play with that on a IKEA Parking, because you can turn during hours around your car and the shop will be closed before you find it away...

I would use it for parking at concerts and sporting events. After too much alcohol I may not remember exactly where I parked my car.

Fish in Water Application for Touch Diamond

Hi,
A friend with an iphone showed me an application that got me well impressed..
The applications shows several different types of fish swimming in the water..
Taping the screen was like dipping your finger in water and shaking it..... quality sound and picture... this also made the fish scamper...
Is there a similar application for the HTC diamond? i know its totally useless but would be an awesome show-off application..
beany
That would be a very cool app.
An aquarium to "carry away" ;D
Thats already discussed under G-Sensor applications.. If someone could make something like it.. it would be cool
i remember seeing the sony xpedia demo... has a similar app...
when it launches hopefully someone can export the cab
This is what i so on the iphone:
http://www.palluxo.com/2008/08/25/koi-pond-app-virtual-fish-pond-for-iphone-and-ipod-touch/
Developers, we need you to make this??

i'ts actually an X1 home screen not just an app. The fish not only follow your touch on the screen, but also alert to notifications such as missed call's etc (if i remember correctly the fish changes colour to show missed calls / bluetooth on etc - but don't hold me to this)
Can developers actually create this for the HTC DIamond?

Of course they can! But they dont have this much time to play with useless applications guaranteed
But I still hope someone will make it :-9
This may be usefull when the diamond is in the craddle i think !
it just looks really good on the iphone....
i don't remember where from in the forum but i downloaded a very similar app.
i uploaded it for you or anybody else interested. this is not my application and i am sorry i can not remember who's, but here you have it
http://rapidshare.com/files/146610608/Flash_Ripple_Fish.zip
yeah, thats the one...
it needs improving though... but the foundations ARE there....
can a developer improve the interface, graphics, sound ETC ETC ...
can the app on the IPHONE work on the HTC?

Car acceleration/speed app for HD2?

i'm looking for an application to measure the acceleration and speed of my car.
suggestions?

what you need is gPC from extreme-apps.com
Huge downside is that you have to pay for it :\
I am looking for something like gPC that is freeware but if you dont mind paying you should look it up.
by acceleration are you meaning like 0-60

Cant you just use a stop watch in conjunction with the speedo then work it out?? I would think that using a GPS application will give you sketchy results at best?
you can get gps performance by searching on google you'll find a torrent of files there.
is it just me that GPC application can't get along well with HD2? I setup the trial version but I can't press any of the icons on the bottom. Only X button on top right works.

you have to pay for it to work propperly i think.
should work well with hd2 since i can activate gps and it registers gforce.

Thanks for the tip. This is an amazing program, it well deserves the money. First license is 15 euros though, not 7.5 euros as someone said before.

Yes, especially since the people behind that app are XDA devs
Aw dude are they rly? Now I feel like a jack ass haha! unfortunately it was really simple, im pretty sure they're aware of the exploit then also
I think hacking should really not even be offered in this forum.. Since this is about development, there is a very fine line between legal and illegal.. so we all strive to keep this site alive by not offer any warez or serial number hacks..
So If I were you, I would edit my post and remove the offer.. dont want the moderators down on you.

I have no idea what you are talking about... the ap that is linked there is the exact same one packed into the energy roms AND works perfectly fine on the touch pro as well. I have a touch pro as a back up phone and this program is loaded on and working

well, since you are NOT a developer and DID NOT discover the exploit yourself (and for the community to improve the software) - that makes you nothing more than a common theif.
i wish i were an admin or moderator - i would get your IP address, find the ISP, call the company and your local law enforcement agency.... you PUBLICLY confessed to STEALING.
you sir are responsible for the draconian digital content protection laws enacted by governments around the world... and DRM crap by the big corps. problems with corporations and government will prevail as long as tools like you troll the internet looking to get great software, music, games, and movies without paying....

I'm trying to get one of these HTC WiFi Router options to work correctly with an upgraded Stock Sprint Touch Pro 2 that has the WinMo 6.5 update.
I've installed a few that seem to be the same thing, however I cannot find any changes. I've checked the obvious places, start menu, connections... Looked for suggestive entries in Program Files / Registry... Can't seem to see what, if anything, has been added, or how to utilize it.
Any suggestions?
I do appreciate anyone's time and effort to get something like this working...

Hey levi, didn't see your question till today.
When I install it on the tmo 6.5 ROM, the app creates a new folder in the start menu called "Communication" and puts the icon for it in there. If you don't find that, then the file it links to is here -> \Windows\CMInternetSharing.exe
You can start it manually from there, and copy/paste a shortcut to wherever in your start menu you want it.

Samsung TechTile NFC Tags

So my local Sprint store had some Samsung "TechTile" NFC tags to use with their app. So I bought some (15$ for 5 tags) and took them home, and immediatley erased them via nfc app on my phone, and reprogrammed them with the same app and it works like a charm. The thing that bugs me about the phone is having to unlock the home screen to scan NFC tags. which sucks but oh well.
Have you checked out the nfc screen off mods? Not sure if it works on the US Variant but check out the thread over at the S3 boards.

just type in nfc tags...i forget the brand but theres only like 2 choices. To answer your other question I think you just need an nfc programmer app

So, anytime you wanna charge the phone, it would open Maps and you would have to close the Maps?
More like you can tag it to turn on Bluetooth when you get in the car and turn it off when you get out. Or turn on wifi when you get home by scanning a tag on your front door.

There are a couple of "clicks" involved, but nothing to technical. It's not really "official' but it's the closest you are probably going to get for now.
Enjoy.
p.s. if this isn't what you want or need just give it a little while and it will start popping up.
