Does anyone know of an application that allows one to use Wikipedia on the HD2, it doesn't have to be offline viewing. I'm just looking for a faster way to access Wikipedia without loading up a browser. If someone could supply a .CAB file of the application, that would be superb.
I am also looking for a decent Wikipedia application, similar to Wikipanion on iPhone. Can anyone recommend one ? Or may be develop ? )))

Exactly, Wikipanion is awesome.
I guess the link I provided wasn't what you were looking for?
Oh by the way have you tried http://mobile.wikipedia.org/ ? Don't know if thats what you're looking for....

I downloaded both english and italian wikipedia dumps, and the only thing stopping me from creating an mdict version is that there are no pre-made tools to do it under my server's linux OS, and I don't want to keep my windows workstation turned on overnight.
Plus, it's a pity but virtualbox crashes my ubuntu server so virtualizing xp is not a feasible way of doing things...

Hi,
I'm looking for a tool, which allows to execute a program with a command line a certain time of x minutes after docking the device in the cradle or alternatively x minutes after active sync. Does something like this exist?
*bump*
Really nobody got an idea?
Maybe MortScript has such an option ...

Interesting idea. Maybe someone knows more. Unfortunately, I don't know mortscript myself.
Hi
It would be easy enough to write a desktop application that will fire off an application using RAPI. Have a look at the Opennetcf library.
If your c++ is up to scratch you could also create an Activesync Service Provider (then let me know how you did it).

Pete

Thanx man...
do you have any custom css for it?
i mean.. something that allow you tu work in it more fingerfriedly?
No, sorry. I didn't really use it in a 'finger friendly' mode, I just used it as it was with the original css. You could write to the guy who's work it is to see if he could create something for you. You never know, he might have something already.
Hi All,
Don't know if somebody already posted this, but I couldn't find a thread about it.
I just saw a link in a Dutch forum regarding a website where you can create your own panel.
Here's the link: http://www.mysonyericssonblog.com/x1panelcreator/index.php?step=1&lang=en
It's just that my Italian is not that good, so I cannot find the guide. Maybe somebody here can find it and explain how it exactly works. But it sure looks promising.
Herman
Here is the English tutorial
BTW. It's an HTML panel designer
WOW Nice find,
without reading it all yet, will do later, it looks like it will be incredibly simple to do something such as a program launcher.
cool, i'm thinking of making a Hyves panel (dutch facebook like social website)..
Groet, Steven
this sounds great but i dont know how to program in html
anyone one able to give me a basic guide
Wow! This is a great find!
Now I just need to come up with some good panel ideas...
Nice!
What you guys want?

Get hold of a WYSIWYG website editor and use one of those..
I think dreamweaver is still available as a trial, try that to build what you want to see, then save the page as html.
otherwise there's huge amounts of websites that give tutorials on html, it's not difficult at all.
SE Panel SDK supports native panel (i.e. panel developed using windows programming technique) and html-based panel. the latter will be more designer-friendly, but probably won't be sophiscated as the native since API will be limited. That said, with all the panel request on running certain app as the background, I got to say html-based panel might just well do the job.
This is a really awesome find. Makes things simpler/quicker...

Try a simple program launcher, that should give you a taster of what to do.

what about some sort of task manager panel, maybe if possible with more info than the standard task manager. it could include info for battery, ram, cpu use, heat etc. a sort of all in one info panel/task manager

Sounds like a good idea.
At the minute im just making a simple development panel.
Just so people can see how it works when they look at the HTML of the panel etc.
Ive managed to open .exe's etc, just wondering how to open sections of the .exe.
For example: clock.exe opens up the alarm bit where you can set alarms. However im wondering if the tabs on that part are also part of clock.exe
Does anyone know how I can access \\Windows of my X1 on my PC? I can only seem to access it using Total Commander on my X1 and to be honest. Its hard to scroll through thousands of files on such a small screen lol
how about a games panel?

Thats dependant on the games you have installed. I could do it with the games already on the phone but other than that, each person would have to customise it for their own phone

could the panel have settings in the panel manager, where the user could add and delete games?

As long as you've got activesync or the vista version installed you should be able to go through my computer.. But I'm on my linux machine at the mo so can't say what exactly the path is.
I don't think you can overwrite files in x1 windows btw direct from the pc.

EDIT: HTML Dev Panel V1 here
can someone tell me what im doing wrong, i have no programing exp so it may be something simple. i tried to make a simple panel that has a pic as a background and a pic as a button that sends u to another pic. i have uploaded the cab and the folder with the html code and pics. any help in what im doing wrong would be great
Just thought i would share my search for a good e-reader for my HD2.
I have not installed doc tabs or ereader from HTC so looking for 3rd party options.
Freda looks ok - but nothing special that stands out. just a good solid app.
Lexcycle - dont do one for WM.
Mobipocket seems interesting and snazzy with desktop integration and is the one i chose -it does sync, and guttenberg also has mobipocket files, and it can import pdf and html and text etc. it seems well featured with most features you would expect and want.
HOWEVER, just be warned that the cab from their website did not work on first install. I had to uninstall it, and then install to my device via the mobipocket desktop software before touch navigation and menus would work.
It seems adequately features and not as nice as stanza, but OK. If you have touchscreen woes though, install through the desktop app.
Other suggestions are of course welcome.
I think there is one called AIreader that everyone recommends...might want to look it up.
I haven't tried it personally...I like the HTC ereader, but I need to find the cab for it alone since my new rom doesn't have it on it...
I am in love with AlReader! Just perfect!
Im attaching the (freeware) English version. Hope that's okay (it's so hard to find on the web)
I'll give it a try tomorrow and update my post
p.s. I am reluctant to give htc's ereader a whirl as apparently it is quite buggy.
I also like this one...but it would be soooo cool if we got a fingerfriendly version for our HD2...anyone up to the task.
I admit I still have a longing for the tabbed interface and large book covers that you get from the HTC e-reader

Yup that is the one is perfect for the HD2 and I love how you turn pages (I inverted top tapping to forward a page and bottom tapping to return to previous page) I found it to be very good, fast and with a lot of extra options
try it! you will not regret it!

Hmm apologies for that... Sure it was the right file...
I don't believe I will be able to fish it out in the next 36 hours (wprking both days and v. busy tonight), but if you can wait a day or two (or someone else comes through) then please check back!!
The best Ebook reader on Windows Mobile is Allreader+. Unfortunately it isn't free but is worth the money, it can read all the important formats as far as I'm concerned and it has so many options that allow you to set it up exactly as you want.
Other options which are good are uBook and Mobireader.

Of course Freda already has finger-friendly navigation (configurable swipes and taps) to change page etc. As for finger-friendly settings screens, bookmarking and table-of-contents navigation, I am working on it ...
Other feature requests are welcome - so if there are features you'd like to see in Freda, please post here, or email me at [email protected]
Thanks,
Jim
Thanks for Freda by the way, it really is gorgeous. I think I will end up using it over AlReader when it loads a little faster and can open in fullscreen mode by default.
But love it!

Working on this now - expect better performance from the next version (particularly when opening a book for the first time, which right now is sloooow!).

Can you check the build number on your start-up flash screen. If it is less than 804, it might be worthwhile for you to download a new version (use the dropbox link on my website) - because build 804 should be capable of starting up in fullscreen mode.
Cheers,
Jim

+ 1 to that. I've been looking for a stand alone cab for it myself.
If you find one let me know, Visa versa of course .

Hi Jim,
any chance of Freda supporting the .pdb format ?, All my old scifi books are in that format & I can't find any updates for them

To be honest, adding support for extra formats is not one of my priorities for Freda development - because it would make the program bigger, slower and buggier, and in the long run I expect EPUB to become the format of choice.
That said ...
1) As Freda is open-source, someone else might feel differently, and might develop a version to read additional formats. I'm doing some refactoring at the moment, so that adapting Freda in this way will become fairly simple.
2) Calibre is a good (PC based) package that can convert various formats into EPUB; it might be a good solution for you.

Big thumbs up here for Freda! Finally an e-reader which natively supports epub format. No more hassle of converting with Calibre and using Mobipoicket (although not a bad e-reader).
Some minor naggles but I can live with those...

Hello,
Does anyone no of any way to do screensharing on a device that has honeycomb?
thanks
Jason
what exactly do you mean by screen sharing? Do you mean having two or more apps on the screen at once? If so, then no, that is not currently possible.
No, I mean I have someone that has problems with their device and I want to troubleshoot from a distance through some remote access program.
They exist for PC/MAC. Trying to find solution for Android
oh, I see. that would be nice.. haven't heard of anything like this yet though
You mean remote desktop connection? I know you can sideload TeamViewer which allows you to control Mac OSX or Windows 7 computer from your Android device, don't know if its tablet optimized yet or not.
See if WebKey works on honeycomb. I don't have a Tab yet, but use it all the time for demoing apps/giving presentations from my android.
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA App
I thought someone was deving a VNC for Android. The current beta has a lot of problems and doesn't work really well..but I think it'll get there eventually.
Until then there's no easy way to remote to a Android "desktop" yet.
