And I for one thank you for it. Looks like a great release so far!
It still gets Google readers list of articles wrong though just shows a couple of them with a scrollbar and a load of white space instead of filling the page.
Can anyone explain what the values mean in the adaptive zoom settings?
wow this is changing very fast. Perhaps there is no need to build Opera mobile into ROM.
This build still is unable to download files completely.
In order for links to work in minimum overview zoom, you need to change it from 60 to say 70.
Let's see if the soft keyboard pops up and if the space left by the keyboard is reclaimed.
Edit: keyboard still pops up unexpectedly, but seems like it's able to reclaim the space after toggle off of keyboard.
Still abort itself unexpectedly though.
Seems whenever I try to type in an address, it switches back to full-screen mode after a few key presses so it takes several attempts before I can get a full address typed in. I had to change the minimum overview zoom to 85% again for links to work.
Nice One ltxda

Strange, I don't have such a problem. Am using the stock ROM though. The link will also work with minimum overview zoom set to just 70%

I've noticed since I posted this that the soft keyboard doesn't have the problem. Only the hard keyboard has this problem.

I had read your post about that and tried 70% first, then went up to 75, 80, and finally 85 worked. Must be a difference between your stock ROM and AP4. (?)
Default browser
The new installation doesnot set Opera as default browser. I have made a cabfile that will define Opera as default browser again.

Does anyone already know a solution for the keyboard problem. I hate it when Opera changes to full screen while entering text with the keyboard.

Keyboard issue makes me think again
I hate the keyboard issue, & now with a much better release of NetFront out I have switched for the past 4 days and been very happy. Opera is a good product, but these niggles are not going away and NetFront feels easier to use.
I can scroll in multiple ways (including the scroll wheel on my BT mouse) and the rendering of the typical sites I use is fine.
I suspect that most people will end up with both, but for time being I am happier with NF.
I also find it incredible that Microsoft can put out PIE and think that this is adequate. The WinMo platform is fast falling behind others but the apps that MS would have us use are so poor as to be laughable. When can I have a working Android !!!???
In the last few days I've been getting out-of-memory issues that I never had on the other 9.x releases. The touchflo settings are way to sensitive in this release, too. I've debated going back to the version I used before (Opera_9.5__Build_781__Diamond__Uninstallable__VGA) but it had other issues and didn't render nearly as well.
I'm hoping for a newer build soon.
I disabled the cache and it works fine. Haven't had any memory errors and I'm using a Universal not an Athena so you guys shouldn't have any problems!
Crashed once today, one keyboard popup glitch. Other than that it's better than Netfront, primarily because I get sh**loads of DNS/certificate/inflatable chipmunk errors with Netfront which DO MY HEAD IN!
No such problems with Opera which aside from the lack of flash support is about as good as it gets.
Still not as good as the Iphone browser, but getting there.
Now when are opera going to bring us an Email client that's ALMOST as good as the Iphone one?
I can only sit and wait patiently.
People can slate Apple/Steve Jobs till the cows come home, but there's some damn good stuff in that Iphone: without it we'd have no Opera Mobile 9.5, no Touchflo, no fancy Touch Diamond GUI and probably still a rubbish browsing experience on our Winmo devices.
Credit where credit's due, eh?

Can't disagree with a word of that and I am a die hard MS fan but if Apple come out with a 5" iPhone/tablet device with VGA or better resolution and make the browser cope with flash I'd buy it without a seconds thought.

I had the intention to release for this app the VGA-WQVGA-QVGA versions as well, but this means a lot of work, since all the graphics have to be resized and the code to be optimized for these screen resolutions.
But...
But. I've released three apps so far (FakeBadge, Walk of Fake and Pocket Noise). In total, almost 8.000 downloads. And a single donation (for WoF). This means, i guess, people is not interested in my apps. Or, at least, not that much interested.
So, if my piggybank continues to stay empty, i'll go on to releas freeware apps. But only in resolution that fits my device (so, in other words, i'll share what i do for me): it's a nonsense to spend many hours working on other res for nothing, isn't it?
VGA version please???

Don't take it personally, but all three are really bling-bling or kiddy apps. Nothing productive, whereas Your programming skills could be put to use for coding something that's actually useful - for example, there isn't currently a single sms/e-mail app on the market that's finger-friendly, functional and has many options. So there's Your empty piggybank. I think if You'd write something that's actually useful, You'd get donations from at least hundred members, not 1. Think about that.

You could be right. Of course i don't take it personal, but what you say brings me to some thoughts. So, i say "could" for 4 reasons:
1. i know my apps are stupid toys. But why people download them, then? Eight hundred downloads in 10 days tell me that people like my apps, stupid or not. And download them.
2. How many "intelligent" apps have you seen for iPhone? Not so much, i think (if you've seen what i've seen). Despite this, the more an app is stupid, the more it sells on AppStore. And have you seen how many people here complain since such apps are for iPhone and not for WM? How many ask to port iPhone apps to WM? see how many did ask for iBoobs port, for example.
3. Some developers, here, develop "intelligent" apps. See, for example, Chainfire, Mitonioes, Blezalex, only to say a few. They should have become rich, if what you say is true. But i don't think so. See Mitonioes donation log for iPhoneToday: i think he is about 150 bucks: not exactely a big amount of money for such a long waited app...
4. Have you seen where G-Alarm is gone, and why? It was free, at beginning. then ageye has seen that, despite his efforts to make the app better and better, and despite the fact that it was one of the most (if not the most) downloaded WM apps, his pigybank as well was always empty. And so decided to make his app a pay one.
This to say that, for me as for other people that release free apps here: we do this without forcing anyone to give us a single cent, and saying that IF one likes the app, he CAN make a small donation to send his appreciation. But if people thinks that "someone else will donate, so why bother? After all it's free", this behaviour leads to the situation where almost the whole developer community has gone to iPhone, where apps are rewarded. Or, as i stated in 3rd post, one develops for himself, and if the apps is ok for you well, otherwise who cares? After all one does this for free and none cares to give him a sign of appreciation.
wow, it was a long OT. but i hope you understand why, if you could be half right, i too can be right the other half
cheers
So You did take it personally OK, just kidding. I see Your point... But I wouldn't go so far to call iPhoneToday an "intelligent" app as it (as far as I know):
1) Simply is a launcher, for which we have like at least 20 alternatives to everyone's liking,
2) It is an attempt to mimic an interface of a system on another system to look like the first system. It's like I would skin my ubuntu to be a mac. Pointless to my mind, no real productivity gain in that.
If You take a look at Iconsoft PhonEx for example, there is an app that has a really well-thought UI, options, intuitive usability etc etc, it's like a perfect example of what my point was, as it completely replaces the useless WM stock dialer and contacts. So I got myself a license, even tho it's 25$. I am willing to pay for great stuff.
G-Alarm does too many things (general mistake that every developer makes is that he thinks when his app has tons of features it makes it greater - it does not, rather on the contrary) to be a simple alarm/timer/stopper, for which 200-300KB is enogh, not 2,5MB.
For me it's all about:
1) Is there real comfort, usability or productivity gain in it for me?
2) Is it small and fast and doesn't have useless features?
For the rest of qualities, I really don't give a s..t.
But, if You are interested in developing something useful, take a look at this - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=520689. It has been half a year and nothing much has been going on. Like I said, there really isn't a good sms/e-mail app outthere

since you are the only one (out of 9 hundreds downloads) reporting this behaviour, i'd not call it a "bug". I'd not even call yours a "report", since it's similar to "doesn't work", that says nothing.
Anyway: i really don't know why your device locks up. Are you using the right version? For what i know it's a WQVGA device. Have you error messages? Do you hears sounds? Do you see something or nothing at all? What happens?
after clicking it , it gets to the main screen and hangs the device requireing a soft reset . no errors .
nice idea for a app but for now gotta stick with flaxbox ;-(
Was looking for such a fun app.
At first it works fine, but only at first as there are no seconds!
It runs fine after a reset, but is t able to start it up again after this first run!
I can press the button all I want but nothings happens no error message, nor no trace of the program in memory
Installed on HTC -HD2, storage card (do not want in in main memory).
Any idea's?
Note: Your Fakebadge app, also does not start after this app has run!
Note:2 Run first Fakebadge = ok 2nd =ok run PockedNoise = NOK
That's a realy strange behaviour, Pandor, but i cannot replicate it in any way, so i really don't know what's going on on your device... I too use the app from SD card, so that's not the problem.
I had a similar behaviour only once, when the app was still in beta: but that was because i had so little resources left (only 20% free memory) that the app didn't succeed to load all its resources and crashed. But i had it in memory (spotted via MemMaid).
So, if you have not it in memory, i guess the problem is somewhere else: maybe you've something running in background that leds to this. Don't know, sorry: as now you're the only one out of 15.000+ downloads reporting this behaviour
So I installed Memmaid, as the taskmanagers, did not show any programs running.
Here I saw that eighter Fakebadge or Pockednoise was remaining as a running process. Close the process and indeed it runs fine again!
I close the app with the Close button.
Note I have 200mb of memory left!
Hey all, i noticed people were asking for a "exercise/fitness" app like ifitness.
this is html one i was developing so made it into a quick widget for you all to see.
its main design is to be a guide.
this is a beta look and feel, i'll start filling out the exercises soon.
iv given it a nice nike+ look as i love the orange !
is been developed for Wvga 480x800 first.
ideas/development..
it will be split into male and female
it will have things like..
Intake, Nutrition and Diet, Weight lifting, Strength Training,
Cardiovascular Exercises, Weight Loss, Aerobic, Motivation,
Preventing Injuries, Avoid cheating, Calculators.
iv put in as much as i can about water intake and Vitamins & Minerals.
im playing around with a BMI Calculator to fit in there too.
im trying a kcal Calculator soon.
im hoping someone brilliant could make a nice flashlite jog meter
also when i can get embed wmp to work or a nice flashlite player maybe we can have music too
im open to ideas and info or people who want to work on it too.. hope you all like !
There should be a way to use the accelerometer as a pedometer. And, a body fat % calculator would be nice.
maybe a cab, instead of a zip? :X
and a food log..
Hey, first of all, THANK YOU! For reals, thanks for taking the time to develop such an app. Now moving on to suggestions
I mostly do weight lifting and some jogging so my suggestions would be these:
- Include a catalogue of available weight lifting exercises (www.bodybuilding.com is an excellent resource)
- Add the ability to create a weight lifting schedule that works as following:
Design a schedule beforehand and fill in sets/reps/weight
This mode would have weight lifting days pre-set by the user (for example I have a chest-lifting day, in which I do bench press, incline bench press and a couple more. I'd like the ability for that to have been designed beforehand by me, and I'd insert the weight/set/reps on the spot during my workout)
Design a schedule on the fly
Start with an empty training day and add exercises/sets/reps/weight on the fly.
It goes without saying that each set should have its own reps and weight
Awesome work so far mate, keep it up!
PS. Haven't tested the app yet, will do so as soon as I can.
Thanks for developing this, love it already =d
Well I have been looking for something like this for a long time.
It would be nice to have the calories intake measured.
One way to do this would be for people for people to use the label of the article to help them input the right data:
If they weigh the food (cereals / chocolates / anything that has a label), and put the weight in grams (example, as I live in Europe), and the calories for 100g, the program could calculate how much calories they consumed.
It would then add them all up, and tell you how much calories you’ve consumed.
It could have some database of some food like fruits that do not come with a label of how much calories per gram they have.
If it could calculate too, how much calories you’ve burned during the training session, it could even tell you if you’ve consumed more calories then you’ve put in the body (witch is what you need to do in order to loose weight).
Regarding the training:
It would be nice to have some specific areas trained, so if you want to train your biceps, you could find 2-3 exercises to do it.
In training some muscles should be trained together (during the same training session), so it would be nice to have it do a training session A for day 1 and B for day 2.
Third request would be if it could have a timer, so that people know how much they are resting (between the series). If they need to rest 30 seconds it should not be 2 minutes.
I know this information is not new to many, but this would be the things I would look for in a program like this.
Good luck and let me know what you think about my suggestions.
i love the idea, if you want me to help out with anything to do with graphics, please ask. i am a photoshop nut, and i could help make the screens look even prettier also if you need, i could help resize things for other resolutions ex: qvga or vga. again great idea =]
edit: as for the player for music i dug this up on another site...
"From Wikipedia "The Advanced Stream Redirector (ASX) format is a type of XML metafile designed to store a list of Windows Media files to play during a multimedia presentation."
Flash doesn't play any windows media native files. It only plays Flash video files (flv) and Mpeg4 (h.264 encoded) either as a .mp4 or .mov file. So to get that to play in Flash you'll need to figure out how to convert it to a file type that flash understands or look into something microsoft native like silverlight." - http://www.ozzu.com/flash-forum/playing-asx-files-flash-player-t103840.html
as for a m3u playlist it appears possible....

Some links
If you need some workout / nutrition info here are some good sites. The first link has a list of all the different muscles and exercises that you can do to work them out along with an animated gif of the exercise in question. The second link is just a food database. Maybe these can help give you some ideas to incorporate into your program.

Nice work - I look forward to seeing some content
Thank You!
Some nice work here. A couple of suggestions that might ancrease it's appeal, and a question.
I installed the program and ran it. It then put a bunch of files into the Main Memory of my HD2 without asking permission. Naughty! Naughty! For various reasons I need every Mb of storage I can keep, so this was a problem. It resulted in memory management issues that drained my battery like crazy, so sadly, I had to un-install it
The program was not fully uninstalled via the phone, and there is no uninstaller in the package, so I 'm going to manually delete all the related files I can find. I suggest that you either provide an uninstaller program or a complete set of un-installation instructions.
And please! set the program to be installe din the Storage Card! I would really like to give it a serious workout!
Thanks again - and keep Developing!

One neat idea would be food log integration.
As in built in foods with calories that you can search through, including fast foods and such.
Also camera/barcode integration, so you could just scan the barcode and it looks up the food and it's calories/nutrition info.
I know those are a big big reach, and probably not likely but they would help make your app complete.
Also if possible the calorie burned exercise should be weight specific, i.e a heavier person doing 2 miles would burn more than a light person doing 2 miles at the same pace.
Hi guys,
I would like to try this app but my Windows Mobile version is 6.1 due to the fact that is much quicker than 6.5 on my Smartphone (I have a Blackstone).
Could you please provide this app as a CAB installation file as WGT files aren't supported in this version of WinMo?
Thanks and regards,
Elvis

This may be an area where the dumbphones win, but I've only been able to find one app that is just a timer--open the app, you've got a timer--and it's way too cumbersome.
When the app opens, I need to see:
A number pad.
A Next button (for moving from hh/mm/ss).
A Start button.
ETA: Also, number pad input needs to overwrite the current field, not insert.
These features have been available on every dumbphone for over a decade. Can't they be done in Android?
This isn't exactly what you are looking for, but I use it.
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.hybrid.stopwatch
It has a stopwatch, too, but remembers which mode you chose and launches in that mode.
Yeah, I tried that one and it has all the same issues as Kitchen Timer, though it's nicer to look at. Who decided an Android timer would use this cumbersome +/- interface? It's made worse by the fact that once you get a cursor in a field, it inserts rather than overwrites, and won't jump fields.
Ideally, the only actions necessary to set a timer should be open-0-0-7-3-5-start, no navigation, no clicking up and down as if we had a device with two buttons (i.e. a watch).
Yeah, I looked around for a timer too. This was the easiest to use that I found. I rarely have to change the time on it so for me I launch it and hit go. But if I was constantly changing the value, it would be annoying. Makes you want to go out and write your own!
I'm poking around in App Inventor to see what I can manage--I would be lost writing code from the ground up. I think I should at least be able to come up with something with multiple one-button presets on the starting page, and they can probably be user-programmable, but I don't think App Inventor has the commands to give focus to a numerical text-box (thereby highlighting the contents for replacement and launching the number pad) on app initialization.
If you want, take the time to send me some EXACT specifications and I'll see if I have time to whip something up; we're not talking 10 year global weather modeling here! LOL
TIA,
Roots

I'm actually making progress in App Inventor, but if it comes to naught, I'll PM you.
Well, it's not finished and it's not pretty, but it's a timer
So far, I can't get the box to grab focus when the app opens, but it's still quicker for entering a new value than the others on the market. The empty red bar will bring up the number pad. Hit hours, mins, or secs to start the timer with the relevant units. Start/Pause work, and if you enter, for instance, "90 + Mins" it will convert it to 1 hour 30 mins. More than two digits in the Hours box will break the UI, but it will count them down
The preset buttons and persistent notification box don't do anything yet, and it doesn't remember the last value entered if you close the app yet, but the core functionality is there.
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/7299403/TimerSAUR.apk
ETA: enabled persistent notifications and shake-to-stop.
ETA2: remembers last value entered and whether Persist was checked, made some visual tweaks and added an icon.
ETA3: re-skinned the whole thing and hid the preset buttons for now. I can add features, but I'd call it a complete app, and more functional than anything on the market, for my purposes.
ETA4: I, um, even fixed those script errors that caused FCs if you tried to start a timer with all fields empty. Details.
D'oh! As far as I can tell, the App Inventor "clock" function pauses if the device is sleeping--not exactly practical for a timer :/
Maybe I'll have another run at it tomorrow.
Maybe you can save the time that it paused, then calculate how much time has passed when it wakes up and start from there. That won't help much if your time expires while it is sleeping, though. Will App Inventor let you prevent sleeping?
Talking to App Inventor community members, I think the clock provided is just not workable for something like this. Maybe if I'm willing to build a windmill to turn a doorknob, I could figure something out, but I'd probably be better advised to start learning real code if I want to pursue the matter.
Better yet, I could take Rootstonian up on his/her offer
Yeah, it shouldn't be too difficult to build. And since you already have some of the GUI worked out, you can just pass that on.
I've built one Android app but it was a while ago so I'm very rusty. But it sounds like it can be done pretty quickly.

I have been using SuperNote to write notes for my classes, and I have some problems with it...
Anyone know if there is anything I/we can do to get Asus to fix some bugs?
I would love to be able to get a bug report to them so that they can maybe provide us with some updates in regards to this.
Problems (I'll add more as I remember):
- Export Notes does not export the photos or annotations
- Page 63 is exported as page 64
- When typing on the very last line, the view keeps going up and down
- There are no special characters
- it does not support basic keyboard shortcuts like Ctrl+C Ctrl+V Ctrl+A (Esenthel)
Might help if you told us what you think is wrong with it.
you could get a logcat while you're doing those things that screw up and send it to asus?
A logcat huh... never thought of that...
Although the thing is, I don't think sending an e-mail to support at asus dot com will do any good...
I was kinda hoping that there might be a better way than doing that...
I like the app, but these little bugs are a little bit silly... I'm not a developer, but I don't think it's too hard to fix these... right...?
For me what's most annoying is that it does not support basic keyboard shortcuts like Ctrl+C Ctrl+V Ctrl+A, I do have the keyboard dock, so I'd like to use it for full advantage
Ah yeah... that is annoying... lemme edit the top list and add that on.
for me, honestly, super note was disappointing. i was expecting it to be so much better.
some fixes id suggest if any rep is here, or if we wanna compile:
1. the limit on a page is annoying. youll be writing something and then it wont let you go down anymore. i know its replica of a4 paper, however, i think itd be better if itd continue downwards, like in Microsoft word.
2. the pixelation that occurs when you create an annotation and resize it.
so annoying!
3. already discussed, but the fact that a stylus doesnt work makes things hard
this sort of interrelates with point 2 above, because...
i for example will want to draw a graph. now to precisely label it, i cant do it with my finger, nor a stylus. so i have to draw it HUGE using annotation, then resize it to make it smaller. then it pixelates!
4. no autocorrect or the ability to correct. it just comes up with red lines.
5. - no change in font.
6. the ability to interchange the page type would be nice, for example: lined paper to graph paper.
7. when doing math, usually, i'd draw a line down the middle of my page to divide the page in half and thus have more working space. i wish this functionality was possible in supernote. i.e. divide the page and have your own custom sections in which you can write.
8. the lack of colours. theres only like 4! - black, blue, red, green!
9. the inability to record and type at the same time. - that includes voice recorder, and video recorder.
i have to open up the sound recorder app and use that, - this way i cant actually insert the sound clip into my notes.
10. following on from the point above, the inability to insert things! cant insert sound files, movie files!
thats all i can think of atm.

All of this! Lol
And I hate that even when you readjust the page after filling it up, when you start typing the freaking thing jumps up and puts all your words at the bottom, even intermittently throwing them off the screen.
I would definitely like to either see them put more work into this app so it truly is super, or I'd like to see someone pick it apart and create a new one that works right.
I moved this thread to the "Themes and Apps" forum because, well it just fits better here
FreeNote is much better then Supernote.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...wsMSwxLDEsImNvbS5zdWlzaG91eGllLmZyZWVub3RlIl0.
- U can write xx pages.
- u can export notes to many apps for ex evernote.
- u can save file as pdf or photo.
- handwriting, keyboard writting, Keyboard+hand writting, touch keyboard with many options,
- u can draw all u want - not only letters and u dont to create separate sheets. U can do all these things on one page!
- and a lot of more!
I loved the app when i saw it, and after trying to use it once i disabled it.
I mainly use tablets to write histories apart from the obvious email and websurfing.
It force closed on me on a very long test note i was writing and all was lost, tried again this time copying and pasting a long piece of text and bam force close again.
To be honest i deeply regret buying the TF700
i have tried everything so far to replace a real laptop and it has proven a big waste of money...
I guess my last resot would be to try the iPad but i can't do that to myself i am afraid i might like it

It's worth the premium account then then offline works like a charm.
If i wanted to pay for simple tasks I would have got an iPad, wait no they come with a decent note application... (I tested my wife's)
here is a good note taking I found not as much fuzzy stuff as super notes but doesnt force closes every time a bird flys by

No it doesn't... Evernote works fine off line. It just waits to sync until you're connected, unless something has changed since the last time I used it.

When I tried with the SKY Wifi Smartpen It kept crashing when no connection was available and I could not see any notes taken unless I was online.

I think that has more to do with the pen than Evernote. It sounds like the pen needs wifi. Is there an option to use bluetooth instead of wifi?

No, not the pen, I transfered notes from the pen to evernotes, then tried to access the notes from evernotes and could not unless online
Yes, exactly. The pen uploads the notes to the Evernote cloud, so how would you be able to access them without the internet? Unless I'm misunderstanding you, this would be the problem regardless of what note app or service you use, unless the pen can somehow transfer the notes directly to the Prime. There is no service in the world that can access a cloud-based server without access to the internet.
