In both Crystal 3 and Mysterious 1.0 scrolling in Internet explorer is very slow. I have not tried Gullum 9 beta so I cannot comment on that one.
The problem is apparent after a fresh flash, or hard reset before installing any application, and remains the same. It is so bad that PIE is almost unusable.
I am surprised that little has been mentioned about this issue.
I stumbled upon a thread on these forums for another device that mentions replacing the webview.dll in the windows folder with the one posted on the forum.
Well it works like magic, PIE becomes smooth and fast.
I would appreciate any feedback regarding this issue.
Well.
I always found PIE very slow. So, this should be the last site you go to using PIE
www.operamini.com
It's just a Java Applet, but it's the best browser ever for any mobile platform as far as I'm concerned! Give it a try. I use the beta version, just add /beta like this:
www.operamini.com/beta
this is an old and real issue mentioned on crystal's thread earlier and, unfortunetly,it's regarded as something trivial.
to my knowledge the sluggish scrolling of pie, other apps like mdict also affected, have existed since roms built on core 18125.
of course certain roms, evo8 for instance, had taken the issue seriously that not only pie but also all apps affected by the symptom have been working like a charm.
i'm glad this REAL issue is singled out.
hopefully someone might help. thanks a lot!
@shylock
do you mind to upload the version of webview.dll u recommend here? thank you in advance!

Sorry there, didn't mean to cause offense. I just don't think PIE is a well thought out browser for Prophet. Also, I didn't know this was related to other apps as well. Which other Apps have you had trouble with?

don't worry^^ your experience about pie is true. i myself browse the internet with opera 8.65 in liue of pie as well.
as to how many apps are affected, i'm not sure but one of the most popular dictionaries in the world--Mdict is certainly confirmed.

@shylock
thank you very much for the attached! it works!
sincerely wish rom masters choose this file for the later roms^^"
How to replace the DLL?
Hello -
I tried to copy the DLL over the original in the /Windows directory - and it failed saying that the file was in use or write protected.
How does one replace this DLL?
Thx,

Do a soft reset and replace it as soon as the phone is booted up
I used Resco Explorer to copy and paste. It gives an error warning about possible data corruption, but I tell it to go ahead and soft reset.
can't find the webview.dll anywhere in my windows folder? I am running Crystal V3 with no problems, seems very stable. However, would appreciete any help on this issue - shoudl I just paste into the folder and see how it goes?
thanks for the tip, i was asking in a french forum, and nothing !
IE works like a charm now ....
Can I try it on a trinity ? same problem with IE .....
Thanks Shylock, i'm on V7 FrenchTouch by Xvx, and it works like a charm for me too
Mybe you can Try Picsel Browser, it was officially designed for Samsung, but some guy's made a nice cab for all wm phones of it Google it, I can't post WAREZ unfortunately
hey guys i just stumbled into a nice new(launched 1-1-08) program called Pointui it's a skin program for wm5 & wm6 phones. i am running it right now on my wing and i love the damn thing. but don't take my word for it check out what JASON CHEN from Gismondo had to say about it :http://gizmodo.com/339835/pointui-s...it-usable-best-wm-skin-app-ever?autoplay=true . btw guys i am in now way whatsoever affiliated to whoever made the program, i've learned so many things about my wing from this site that i just wanted to give everyone a heads up. again the program it totally free with absolutley no hoops to jump through.
btw the program has to be installed through activesync ( just so u know) also the link to the website it at the bottom of the review.
and here the homepage:
http://www.pointui.com/
and the .cab for installing
Very nice indeed, I used it for 3/4 days and got sick of
the non-costumizable look. I subscribed to their forum,
a LOT of people want it to be costumizable, so I
think i'll wait for the next release.
I quote from PoitUI Forum:
The Dutchman said:
-Today screen Plug-in, just can't miss batteryStatus, quicklaunch and WLM.
-Graphic costomizer of course
-Inversing the up/down sliding
-At the right top, a CLOSE button when running an app
-When pressing e.g. WiFi in top, then activating it.
-Removal of Operator name
-when one want's to go to programs-->games (or whatever secondary
or third or fourth folder) not having to press (select) it, but slide on it to
the left to go to its content
But after all, KUDO'S 8)

but like pointui - all is finally redirected to the crappy winmobile software - when wiritng sms or anything else.
comming there, can be very nice - cube, pointui, spbmobile shell --> but at the end we stop there where we could get by
-->
pressing - start-programms-messaging

There is no .exe (and there is no cake).
To install a .cab file on your device you just copy the .cab on the device and then run the .cab.
got it

I tried this out yesterday, it's pretty neat. My only 2 complaints are a lack of task manager and it eats up A LOT of battery. I uninstalled it.
A little while ago I posted a blue windows mobile 6.1 welcomehead splash. A lot of people seemed to like it, so I made a few more and packaged them up. This package contains the blue one as well.
Enjoy
thanks was looking for these hahaha, and now i got em all in a neat package.
Thank-you sir. Much appreciated!
hey gc, how would i go about implementing these? theyre BMP images, while the default welcomehead.96 is a type 96 file or something. what do i do?

Hey, first off, they're .png images, not bitmap. Second, pick which one you want to use, rename it to welcomehead.96.png, and put it in your \Windows folder (you probably will have to use Total Commander or something equivalent as it may not let you just copy it to \Windows). That's it...soft reset.
Thanks, very good !

Are these only for 6.1 or can we use these on a stock Windows 6.0 device (Verizon XV-6800)?
Thanks!

These are welcomehead splashes and can be used on any windows mobile device that uses welcomehead.96.png as the splash image. The reason why I labeled them WM 6.1 Welcomeheads is because they all say Windows Mobile Version 6.1 on them. You could use them running WM 6.0, but it'll say Version 6.1 on the splash lol.
for anyone who wants to download these directly on their phone, just go to www.wikiwhore.com/splash.zip
i set up a mirror there because logging into xda to download files takes a while sometimes, its easier without passwords...
gcincotta, thanks for your work, look forward to using pink...
Can you make the same thing for this picture please ? (I would like it in blue)
For what it's worth, making your own splash images is pretty easy.
All you need to do is make sure whatever image you want to use is the proper dimensions. For the Titan, that's 240x320. Even the simple "Paint" program that comes with windows can save files as .png files. All you need to do is find an image you want, resize it to the right dimension, save it as welcomehead.96.png, and then save it to your ppc's Windows file.
If you cook your own rom, you can have up to 3 splash images AND use a customized .gif animation. GIMP is a program that you can find for free that is similar to photoshop that will make .gif animations.
On mine, I have a picture of my son, then a picture of my wife, then an animation I made & finally a picture of the Libertarian Party's logo with my username above it.
Hi guys,
Do you know where I can find this one but with "version 6.1" written on it, like the rest of the pack you guys have?
Thank you

hello everybody
I found a recent version VGA but I converted to QVGA, you certainly know this software, this version is unlike other tactile versions available to date
Admin edit: software removed after a complaint from the copyright owner, this software is not freeware or shareware and therefore considered warez, warez is not allowed on the forum.
Quentin Post:
I know, I know...I'm late to the party. Hopefully the quality of the release will make up for the tardiness. I'm still running a Kaiser (just couldn't convince myself the Diamond was actually better--and I'm still crossing my fingers that the Touch HD will get released with TMO 1700Mhz support).
Anyway, without further ado...this version of MusicID is based from the 1.3.16 source from 1800pocketpc.com which is of course released by AT&T. The changes are as follows:
Converted for QVGA (320x240) support. The conversion was done using image resources from the non-touch screen version so they look just fine. Furthermore all fonts have been converted as well. (I'd like to give credit to lepsyfou here, he did give everyone something to use at least even though the images looked poor and the fonts were large. Were it not for finding his original conversion that got me hooked on the app itself I probably never would have made my own conversion).
Removed UID information from query strings. For those that didn't check, the application for download on these forums (and other sites) actually makes all requests under the guise of someone's account (presumably whoever released the app). I won't post their account # here but suffice it to say that if they ever shut off the service everyone using that app would find it stops working. Hopefully that won't happen here.
Removed all AT&T specific features. This also means that all the buttons present after a successful identification have been removed. #1 they are completely useless for anyone not on the AT&T network; and #2 they were pretty much pointless (from my perspective) in the first place. As a side benefit see the next item.
Due to the removal of AT&T specific features I found it convenient to download a larger cover image photo for the album...maybe this will be enjoyed by others as well
Updated the help pages and removed redundant (or now unused) entries.
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
If you've never installed any version of MusicID before simply install the cab. If however you have installed a previous version pay close attention:
Remove any previously installed version of MusicID.
It is absolutely MANDATORY to remove the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\MusicID folder and its contents. If you're an advanced user and are using any of the conn* entries you can leave those but remove all others. If that last statement doesn't make any sense to you then simply remove the entire MusicID key (and all entries contained therein) prior to installation.
I highly recommend removing your \Application Data\MusicID folder and contents. This is due to the fact that the application now expects 150x* size images. The only issue with old images should be a slight off-center display though so it is up to you

Is there anyway you could adjust the Text size? It still doesnt all completely fit on the screen.
Deff dont want to come odd as an ass. Just a thought to make the QVGA version even better.
Thank you

Was reading about this last night on Pocketnow.com. tried to installed and got the unsuccessful message. Was in ATT store today looking at the new Samaung epix, just to see what it was about, would never give up my Tilt for it, but is nice and love the cursor, very responsive.
Now if you have a Tilt, not sure about other cells, or maybe if you have ATT device dial from you cell *43# and it should get it for you. Also might look in your start up might get put there.
I love this program. It actutally found a song from a Musical from 1951 while i have my Sirrus on Broadway. Unreal.
Hope this helps someone.

I am really not all that sure... It said success, and the attempted connecting to media net/internet. then a lot of nothing happened...
Maybe this is one of a dozen questions.. i have been searching on the forums to find some cool stuff for my phone,
I installed Cookies Home Tab and the editor and so on...
Now i found Dinik his stuff, and i want that so bad.. it looks really awsome for me...
When i browse the topic, i see things like: Anastasia Task bar etc..
How can i install those things on my, almost standard HTC HD2? Is it just installing the CAB? Or do i need to install a special ROM (i am running 1.66).
And how about Manila? What is that? Do i have that already? When i search the forums, i see all kinds of mods for it, but i don't find the real program...
I hope u guys can help me, and not saying that this is one of the dozen or something.. i just want to be helped... i have used the search option already.
Thanks in Advance..
ThaSySman
Manilla is you home screen with tabs etc.
Manila is another name for HTC Sense. Download cabs you want to your device, open file manager and double click. Good luck.
Ah okay! So that was indeed a stupido question
How about Anastasia?
