Hi!
I just installed the new updated ROM from o2.ie. (1.72.00WWE) All works fine but I can't work out how to toggle to landscape view! Been round the block a good bit but can't find a button for this!
Can anyone there help? Thanks!!
Conor
Go to setting/system/Screen can choose landscape
You can download RoteteScreen. cab at this forum to make a shotcut
Still can't see that button in "Screen" as you sug
Still can't see that button in "Screen" as you suggest.
I'd prefer not to install a CAB if possibile as I thought that screen rotation formed part of this second edition of PPC2003.
Am I wrong on that?
Thanks!
Conor
Hi, I don't think you have 2003SE. The latest upgrade from o2 is still 2003 (first edition). There is no official SE upgrade for the xdaII. However, I have recently upgraded using finalzero's 2003SE ROM available here and, as they say in glasgow, "it's pure minted, man". Highly recommended. Plus, I have been able to install it without the caller ID which makes the system a lot l-o-t slower. The extended ROM, by a fortuitous mistake, has to be installed manually so this can be customised.
Hope this helps.
Do you have a link to FinalZero's SE Rom? I'm using the one originally posted by DCS but if there's a better one!
You're right mate! The o2 upgrade isn't Second Edition!!
Thanks for saving me from myself!
It's taken me ages to reinstall my programs and SMS messages so I'll put up with this ROM for now.
But if someone could really recommend a good prob-free plug-in for screen rotation I'd be much obliged - thanks a lot!

Hi All
I have been playing with QVGA and True VGA and there is just a too big Gap between the two
One is 2 Big and the other 2 Small
previously on my Jasjar I set the resolution to 144 (Slap Bam in the Middle)
The problem with this is all the VGA Stuff as well as the most of the icons is missing but ..... IT IS REALLY the best RES to work, not too smal or big the sliders etc also looks just right
Shouldn't we start looking at developing for 144 Resolution and get it over and done with once and for all
OK - It's been a long time since I've done this, where do we start!!!!!!!
VGA 128dpi
Hi Skillie,
144dpi resources are hard to get so it would be quite a lot of work. I can easily provide you with 128dpi resources because they are supported by Microsoft.
I will provide you with the necessay files within the next 2 days.
Cheers,
Tobias
VGA 128
This is the installation for VGA 128dpi. Give it a try. This one is for English devices. If you need any other language let me know.
If you don't need the video call function then you can fix the phone by setting the registry entry
HKLM\Security\Phone\Skin\Enabled=0 and perform a soft reset.
Have fun
PS: When I will find the time I will provide a little program to switch betwen 192dpi <-> 128dpi <-> 96dpi
VGA 128pdi
Sorry it seems that there was a problem with the upload ...
Yeah Man!!!!!!
This is so cool - did you do it all on your own?
I will test this for a while and let you know but the size is nether too big or small - This I can live with this for more than 10 minutes - look at that real-estate!!!!!
Thanks u are Tops!!!
VGA 128dpi
I'm doing PocketPC development device driver development since 2002, so it was not a big deal
There are some minor issues with some dialogs, like the wireless config dialog but I will fix that when I have some time. Actually I got the resources from the QVGA 320x320 emulator, which runs at 128dpi.
Cheers,
Tobias
I have been playing with it - my Phone works but the other usual stuff not
but i am so impressed with this I will actually keep it on this resolution
A lot of work has gone into fixing the the cosmetics i'm sure to find the right files for this as well
From now on I am recommending this to all who complain about big Icons \(or too smal ones )
Excellent Work !!!!!!!
I bet this will be part of WM7!!!!!!
Cheers
Frikkie
I'm gonna sound like a real noob now .... can i just install this new CAb and try it? If i dont like it uninstall and then reset and its gone? Dont wanna bugger up my Ameo as I have it working how i like apart from the screen space!

If you uninstall it again you will be back on 192dpi (factory default).

I tried this utility quickly. Initially seemed ok. Today screen looked good as did the program files.
However when I tried to start Excel, nothing seemed to happen at all except the machine was apparently stuck on something. It stopped doing anything beyond putting the word excel in the title bar. Still saw the 3 pocket office icons on the screen and that's all that happened. Had to manually stop Excel with the memory tool. Uninstalled the vga cab and all is back to normal, including a working Excel.
I tried this. Excel and word worked perfectly for me.
The backlight glider also has no problem. HTC homeplug is perfect.
Phone application works although it leaves a space at the bottom. Also,I can't see the dialed number if it is not one stored in the contact database. Any way it still beats VJBigphone hands down.
Comm manager is messed up still.
Standard keyboard are too small, as expected. However the Tengo keyboard is still prefect.
All icons on tasksbar are perfect. Today screen icons are completely perfect.
The beautiful standardcalculator skin is gone, replaced by ugly looking round lines for the keys. But this is no big deal. I don't need the standard calculator anyway. HiCalc is the way to go, and HiCalc works well, other than a little gap at the top.
This resolution is way way better IMHO than ozvga or mvrtrurvga. The size of the taskbar and bottom bar is a lot more pleasing, and blend in with the application better, since theit sizes does not contrast too sharply from the button sizes of traditional applicationapplications.
The only real problem is, my navigation software iGO my way is completely messed up. What a pity. I like this resolution very much,but would hate to have to uninstall then soft reset to drive. After driving,I would have to install then soft reset to get back to this.
Is it possible to have a program to toggle,at least to remove the need for installing and uninstalling? I suppose it is not possible to avoid the soft reset?

I will provide you one this evening. BTW: TomTom for instance works perfectly with this resolution. iGO also doesn't work with 96dpi on VGA as far as I know. I'm sorry

Just surprised why it takes so long for this utility to come out. Very very fantastic!
Good... at last something new to play with since the WM6 flashing.
This is definitely the resolution that brings the X7500 to its fullest rights
As mentioned earlier someone had issues with the Excell but I also had a issue but everything works now
Cool
I'm looking forward for the toggle to switch the display modes. Thanks for your huge contribution.
Does it work with WM6? To come back to factory resolution is it enough to uninstall it?
THX so much!

Yes it works on Wm5 & 6
and uninstalling it actually restores it
PS This looks awesome on the jasjar as well (But obvioulsy nowhere near the X7500

THX so much...about phone skin? Should I use an appropriate skin to use the phone?
Great, but some icons missing
Hi, I love it, however some of the small icons in SPB Pocket Plus / Diary are missing... any chance for a fix?
I used PDAVIET 4.0.0.4. and the design was perfect for me.
Because I had problems with charging with USB and WiFi which didn't start each time, I wanted to test other Roms.
First I tested ProphetTouchIX. The TouchFlo And Cube effects worked at the first boot and never worked after that. And it was too slow.
Then, now I'm using Mysterious 1.0. So far so good, but I don't like background.
I'd like to have the same Today/Phone backgrounds and the same Dial phone theme, keypad I had in PDAVIET 4.0.0.4.
I'd like to use TouchKeyboard/Keypad I saw in ProphetTouch IX. It's really great to SMS.
So it's possible to do it?
why not try crystal v4? it has touch keyboard..but im not sure about the theme used in 4.0.0.4...the themes in crystal are default ones..
I saw screenshots and I don't like it.
I found how to restore Touch dial keypad. (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=311225)
I'm still looking for the Touch Keyboard.
Actually, I just want to remove the background picture. I do prefer it with no picture.
I found the HTC default touch theme (*.tsk). But I don't know to put this file to make it appear in the themes menu.
EDIT : I found where I have to put *.tsk. In Windows directory.
for what it's worth...this cab was floating around...i dunno though, you might need to change something to get it working properly. It seems to just appear like the screenshot when installed...
Thank you. I almost removed everything from the Mysterious theme.
I'm gonna try it.

The build is not aligned with CE as Jaime did some magic with it to make it battery friendly. The magic worked but it has now this build align problem .

The main purpose of this ROM is to make Atom Exec owners stay away from stylus as much as possible with an original interface other than iphonish or htc thouch ones so no transcriber built in.
It is the industry tendency
The second purpose of this ROM is to keep Atom Exec owners out of Diamond or iphone stores

Jaime.

It isn't really a problem. It was made on purpose. Build 19949 battles a lot keeping registry keys and it is when errors and battery drain come up.
Let's say that it is a car with big engine (19949) with acuate accessories (19209).

Jaime.

Hey Jaime it works like magic as I tried it and it is the easiest way to do instead of going into the prvisi... provissss provin... that thingy. Although this then reverts u to the old network settings instead of ur star clad network settings .
HP 6815
Hi,
I've got an iPAQ rw6815 and i'm actually very fond of "touchy" interfaces. I love PointUI, for example.
So, can I use this rom with my pda?
If not, where can I find the ingredients I would at least try to put them into the boring (!) WM5 the ipaq has by default. (None of the wm6/6.1 roms out there on this site has worked reliably for me, yet)
Important!!
many guys are not clear about the installation, let me clarify it here:
The correct sequence of installation should be like this:
1. install sdkcerts <- REMEMBER!!
2. install the revised resouce pack
3. run RealVGA. if it prompts for missing DLLs, just ignore it. proceed and it will do a soft reset
4. if you want to have video call, install 3G Dialer and do soft reset
5. the <Diamond WMP Skin.cab> is just a skin for WMP. i think it looks much better than the original one in 96dpi. you may choose not to install it. i just want to share with you guys here
NOTE:
I haven't tested the language packs, they may conflict with the resource packs! if you really want to have the language packs installed, make sure you install the language packs FIRST before this main program!
Updated RealVGA
-Revised WLM resources
if you use DXHL2 or above, it's better to update this patch to have faster response of WLM. it doesn't harm if you still use the old patch
what's more:
-Nadavi 3G Dialer (for Video call) <-remember to install RealVGA first
-HTC WMP Skin (NO more gaps!!)
Hey guys I have modified the source pack of realvga. it's tailor made for i780. no more missing icons in Domain Enroll, Task Managers or threaded sms.
enjoy!
NOTE:
Make sure you install <sdkcerts.cab> before the resource pack!!
a screen shot included
anyone who has time to test it?
really appreciate for the effort...
i780 wm 6.1 realvga
does not for seem to work for me.
no change after installing sdcerts and realvga
I just test it today and it works flawless. Thanks!
missing dlls
recieve a missing dlls message when 96 dpi is selected

these came from the original RealVGA
you may ignore them and click the "proceed" button to continue
i know the "mboxchs.96.dll" is the resource of chinese handwriting but i forget what "sskim.96.dll" is about
they shouldn't be playing a role in the patch
hope this helps
Thanks Xyam - but issues....
Hi Xyam - went ahea with 96dpi desite the missing DLLs.
Generally - seems to be ok but the menu text has disappeared. So I see only icons in the Start Menu.
any ideas/solutions
Thanks in advance
hi,
this realvga works fine for my i780.

thanks

hi,
the size of the icons are pre-defined, say, 32x32 and 16x16 in 96dpi.
I know HTC TouchFlo has the "big icon" feature but it slows down the phone.
hope this helps~

Works Great! Thks so much for the files.
Plenty of folks have been using the i780 fix on our i770s, and it seems to have the same issues the i780s had. Did you manage to fix the symbols in the dialer? Is that an issue on the i780? the locations and bluetooth icons in the phone dialer skin render oddly.
Do you know if you have to do a full reinstall to use the new respack? Or can i say diable realvga, install the new pack, etc etc...
Thanks for the tweaking, it's very much appreciated. I'll report back on how it goes.

sorry i don't have the i770 in hand so i have no ideas about your issues.
can you just upload a pic showing the problems?
if you have installed realvga before, make sure you roll back to the original 128dpi settings and uninstall realvga. and then install the new patch.
i have video call dialer for i780. pm me if you wish to get one

Hi... THANK YOU THANK YOU VERY VERY MUCH....
i used to use the original 96DPI.
Many problems. cannot use PHONE, cannot vibrate and ring, cannot use contacts...
Yours is superb so far...
i'll continue playing around and see if anything can report back.
happy
thanks alot for sharing great tool for us. simple but very essential for me
tested on my samsung i780 ROM ver i780PDXHL2 and working very well.
guys, my video call function failed to work after applying RealVGA 96dpi.
Although i have disabled phone skin (by ticking it).
What's weird is that when i enable phone skin (untick) in 96dpi, i can receive video call without any problem but again I am unable to make any video call....
help?
OK, but Without translation
It works fine on my French Orange i780 (example : the letter icons appears in the sms mailbox) but I lost the virtual keyboard.
The virtual keyboard re-appears when I install the french translation (LangPackFRA.ARM.CAB, this one I download with RealVGA 1.1) but I have many problem : cannot use phone, cannot vibrate and ring, cannot use contacts... So I uninstall the french translation.
How can we make a french translation for this version ?
thx a lot brother
works very smooth on my i780
problem.
hi everyone, i have recently updated my i780 from wm6 -> wm6.1 and getting some problems with realvga. It worked perfectly on wm6, but not on wm6.1
Some icons are missing in the "Settings" and "main menu" when i apply the dpi. I also get a error message regarding some missing dlls when applying the dpi i want to use.
anyone else here know how to fix this problem or install realvga on i780 with wm6.1 without problems?
tnx in advance.
