3D Eyetracking UI Where? - Defy Themes and Apps

Guys this launcher is damn cool
http://gizmodo.com/5159229/3d-eyetracking-cellphone-interface-is-like-deep-man
but i think i have searched for more than 20 pages for download link i couldn't find it plus that even is not mentioned the release date,
I'm really disappointed , second thing is that all current launchers except spb shell and mxhome x and regina all only matter of icons and some cube turning , nothing more.
Any help??????!!!!!!
the others are boring i need 3d awesome launcher.

Shouldnt work without front facing camera anyway.
I wouldnt expect the defy to do this.

there is no need for a front cam, it works like the diamond-hologram , only by moving the phone !
i want to try mxhomex , but i cant find it anywhere

So how do you know that?
It might work with the 3d compass to give that holo feeling but i doubt that as they clearly state, that it takes your eye-position into account. If it wouldn`t do that it will be very prone to displaying a wrong viewing angle when the user moves around as it has no means of detecting the relative position of the eyes.

one you open in your browser in the device just try to download through the market.
its charming.

its a concept not released and wont be released anytime soon

Hehe it's not a big deal at all... All it's controlled by the accelerometer, and have nothing to do with a frond facing camera.

HTC home plugin, recommandations and wishes
I have one recommendation and one wish for future perfect ROM.
My recommendation which is already present in .5 cross ROM but non other ROM havent, is HTC home plugin .in 5 cross ROM can able to show simcard line status instead of operator name. What I mean is I have two line in one simcard and changing my lines by entering its pin codes and It is perfect to see which line are you using is a very wonderful gift that .5 cross ROM have. Regular phone able to show both operator name and the line that you are using. Afte 1.5 year I supprised to see on windows mobile. If possible could you pls inform me how to change it in htc home plug or could you pls apply it for you future ROM.
The other my wish is closing the applications how as in tocuhflo way. Everybody can easily agree that the worst thing is closing applications by targeting X button. If it possibble to apply all applications doing this feature sucf as touchflo way like sliding up your finger to close, I thing that ROM will be the number one that whole WM6 users have the reason to change their ROMs
Thanks four your works and I'm keeping in touch everday waiting for perfect ROM.
clock will be ddd dd/mm/yy
ex: Thu 26/07/07
have fun.

we'll only have one problem with that sliding up to close programs.... what about contact and internet explorer or even the windows folder. if we do that then the scrolling would only work down and close if we try to scroll up again. this would aplay to all apps that have the option to scroll
but it would be cool to hace some movement close programs..
It´s done when it´s done!
What is all this - viral marketing for a still not existing ROM?
I think it´s done when it´s done - no need for the 5th threat without new information!
Let´s simply wait until the TOUCH ROM gets published and stop further spamming this forum. And for all those who get bored waiting, there are more than enough other good ROMs for testing in playing.
Thanx anyway to all persons creating these exciting new Roms for our HTC Prophet.
yeah you're right gullum but any genius movement can be find to close such as one side to oposite site that non of the applications doesnt use and also havent capability in that way as far as I know. My suggestion is sliding up-right to bottom-left for example.
And also one thing should be considered that when you figure out of usage percentage of sliding applications against to sliding to close (ofcourse if avaible), I thing we will hit the usage of sliding to close.
something like mouse gestures in opera/fierfox? great idea
It's so hot ~~~~

Google Maps 5

Big news about the latest version of the Maps app. It will have downloading of vector data instead of bitmaps so seamless smooth zooming and 100th of the file size, 3d buildings, enhanced multitouch gestures and most importantly OFFLINE MAPS!
Anyone want to guess at which features (if any) will make it to the Legend? Vector maps would be good but I am most interested in the offline maps (which prob wouldn't work without getting the vector version)
great news. vector graphics are a great tool for small and good looking apps or animations (by now only adobe seemed to notice).
they should only activate navigation world wide.
If you want to use Offline-Navigation you can try maps-brut:

I think most features except for the multitouch rotate, because it requires "distinct" or "true" multitouch which I'm sure the legend , the desire, or even the nexus one does not have. But everything else should work.

It'll manage a rotate, no problem
It should work, though I have a feeling sometimes it will rotate the wrong way. Kinda like the pinch apart pictures in the 3d gallery, or trying to play 2 player pong
That being said I hope we get this release, I sure like the sounds of vector, it will play nicely with my 500mb data plan.

Why would it rotate the wrong way? It has no reason to.

Lol, all good.
I guess we'll see when it drops. HTC phones will probably screw up the rotation gesture.
Did anyone see any news on when it is released? They said in a matter of days, and that was about a week ago. I realize "days" could mean months, but usually it means less than a week.
It's already out there for download, look here:
http://pocketnow.com/android/google-maps-5-for-android-with-3d-vectoring-now-available
Just installed them ... and I must say! It works, smooth zooming and even the 3D rotation with two fingers, the compass mode! brill!!!
Mart
3d rotation doesnt work for me... even the desire is listed as only "partially supported" are u sure it works for you? however it would be nice to have at least some buttons to rotate the map
It's been pushed to the market..updating now.
Working alright, I don't get either two finger rotate or two finger to tilt. I definitely love the new rendering method..everything fades in now, much faster to load, much more fluid experience. Had one hiccup so far where it didn't render properly but it figured itself out.
Edit: Ooh! Theres some 3d buildings.
No rotate or tilt here on my Legend.
:sadpanda:
tilt works on my phone - sliding up and down with two fingers
tilt, compass works here with CM6.1 although I can't see any buildings like in the demo
And I can't get the rotation to work
Tilt doesn't work on my Legend with CM6.1. Can see 3D-buildings though, and compass mode works.
I can see the 3D models in NY / Berlin, but I also can't tilt :O
+ Whats my map won't rotate like a compass when I turn. Do i have to enable something in maps for that?

You need true multi touch for that .. legend does have that so that feature might not work ..

Is there really no-one who can tilt accept for me?
I can tilt but I can't rotate with the multitouch feature.

[APP] Motion Controlled 3D Gallery

First off this is not my app. I went back to the vibrant for a bit and found this. It works perfect on the MT4G so I figured I'd show it to you guys.
It was made by avdaga and his original thread is: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=918945
Pretty much it's what the 3D gallery should do. Not just sway the pictures when you move the phone but actually scroll through them.
*If you have the aosp 3D gallery installed already you'll need to uninstall it before installing this one.
Heres the original post:

Hi there,
For a school project I have modified the Gallery3D application to enable scrolling, zooming etc by using the accelerometer.
I have made a short demonstration which can be found here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2xYkblRYPcY
The mod is based on CyanogenMod-android_packages_apps_Gallery3D-a63279d.
It would be very cool to use scrolling for the selection of pictures within the album grid, so one could open/close the picture by shaking... However, the sourcecode was not so well documented and we couldn't find some functions that would help us implementing this... I must note, the source contains 50+ classes, we have only looked into a few.
For installation instruction check http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=752007
Current Functionality added
VolDown: en/disable motion (disabled by default)
Gallery:
● Scroll by tilting
● Reset to first by shaking
Image view:
● Next/Prev by tilting L/R
● Zoom in/out by tilting U/D
● Reset zoom by shaking
With some help I hope to add the following in the future:
● In grid mode: Select center image
● In grid mode: Open image by shaking
● In grid mode: Prevent scrolling out of the grid range
● In picture mode: return to album by shaking
● In picture mode: initialize zooming at current tilt angle, and zoom from there by holding an overlay button (next to the zoomin/zoomout overlay buttons)
If anyone could help me a hand with the image selection, e.g. by giving me a direction where to find functions for this, I'd be very greatfull!
I'm wondering what you think about it, your questions/remarks are very welcome

lmao i figured they desired some battery mods real quick
but for real the only thing i hate is having both of em cus of that damn screen.... the mt4g wouldnt be so bad if i had gotten rid of the vibrant but seeing them side by side makes the mt4g look like **** (which i hate to say about my baby) but its true besides that i hate the thing I would honestly never buy another samsung phone (hence why NS isnt on my sig list) I stepped away from htc once and it was the worst experience ive ever had lol
oh and on a side note I never saw you post those icons i sent you... i couldnt remember if you asked me to just send you links straight to the flashables though lol sometimes I just lost in piles of msgs
Thanks for the gallery bro! Now get on AIM fker!

I dont remember ever getting the icons, I was just thinking about that yesterday. Maybe I missed the PM or something. I will have to go back and look. I was just playing with my buddies Vibrant. He just put the Froyo update on and was wondering if the lag fix would work. it is so laggy compared to the Glacier. I couldn't believe it. I didnt think his screen seemed much better than mine (good screen) and his seemed kinda color tinted. I dont watch movies or anything like that, I am sure there is a big difference there. I probably couldnt watch a movie on it anyways, that would require me not messing with it for like 2 hours and that aint happening. lol
Hey I saw you were making a zip for that guy in the other thread with the batt icons...YOU ROCK PACK!!! Thanks for everything!!!
Ha...when I posted this you had posted 420 times....I guess I know what I have to do!!
ill resend em to ya... no big deal... I always lose stuff in the ridicules number of messages i have lol
side note: lol after I saw your post I tried not to make another for a while because of that (and i dont even smoke anymore lol) just though it was funny as hell... I didn't notice until you posted that...
Thanks pack works great!!

not working with CM7
if it says cannot install... you need to uninstall the original one like I said in the OP
in root explorer goto /system/app
goto gallery.apk or gallery3D.apk (cant remember what its called)
and delete it
then install this one
i installed it again in root explorer then appmonster backed it up then deleted from appmonster. then moved this apk and installed. works perfect! Thanks for the tip!

The reason for that is because it is made from the original gallery app. So when you try to install it your device thinks your installing a duplicate application and denies it.

The next killer app

Hello fellow Arc owners.
I have a quick question for you all.
What do you wish your handset could do that it can't?
Something you've always wanted to be able to do with your phone but has never happened, no-one's ever found a way.
Whatever this something is, it has to be possible to do by way of an app - so no super-high-res screens, batteries that last a year on a single charge or anything else hardware related, we're just talking software.
And I'm not talking an updated GingerBreak or something like that. I mean a proper, legit, above board idea.
I'd love to hear any/all sensible ideas, thanks.
NB: I'm not looking to steal anyone's ideas, if you've got a plan for the next killer app then go for it and I wish you all the best.
I'm just trying to find out if there's a niche out there that could be filled...
Im thinking......facial or thumb print unlock screens.....no idea why though.
mrloltime said:

Thumb print.. won't be feasible on current screens
And facial.. would take too long compared to swiping ?
A snap shot feature would be nice like a system restore. I know there are way to do it in Recovery but it would be nice to have a application within Stock ROM because Recovery is not available within Stock we need to Flash the custom ROM like CM for it.
A better (and free) lock screen could be good ! ..
I used to love how I could use the iPhone/iPod as a touchpad to control the mouse on the computer. Something similar for the arc would be a good idea. Should be graphically pleasing though.
I love to be able to use the camera button unlock the phone directly to the camera app, by long pressing it, so it doesn't happen by mistake. And when you turn off the screen or press the back button it would go back to being locked.

As mentioned, finger prints would require different hardware.
Facial recognition is simply fraught with too many problems to be practical.

Really !! You know how to create a snapshot? Or access it?
Android 2.3.3 Gingerbread Allows Screenshots Without Rooting
Don't know anything more about it though, sorry.
Sorry I think you got me wrong ...! Snapshot i meant a complete image of the system so we can restore it back to previous state. Let's say if something screws up we can restore the image
Right, ok.
I thought you had made two suggestions - screenshots being one and backups being the other.
I could be wrong but I'm not sure that's possible to do unless you're in recovery. I have a feeling that it's only possible to copy certain parts of the OS when it's not running.
As I say, I could be completely wrong but I can't help but feel that there's a reason why recovery is needed to made Nandroid backups.
May be I want to capture video of the activities I do on my device (just like capturing screenshot)...
Though m not sure if its achievable or not!!!
an app which can change anything in the system .. like the default wallpaper settings ..i dont mean the main wallpaper ... change the color .. change the notification bar ... but that easy change anything in the system ... where u can feel easy on making ur own system ... but the problem i dono how to make i hope somebody go on with my idea .... its free for u all ^_^ ... the first who will do this plz let me be the first one who tries it ^_^
thx
I am expecting an application that can show the time and other notification when screen is off. It means that the time can be checked without needing to wake up the screen. W 800 used this technology before. Very useful!

+1 , and the time/notifications have to move up over the screen after each minute (like a screensaver) (like Nokia/Symbian has)

Small image display when opening Sony Camera.app :(

Hello Good People,
Can someone please help with this odd issue. When opening the Sony Camera.app it displays a small view finder instead of full screen. I have tried clearing cache and fixing permission but no success so far.
Interestingly if I access the camera from the lock screen it appears in full screen.
Other third party camera apps work correctly too.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
I have had this problem before...very long ago. I can't remember what caused this.
Are you on stock rom or any sony based custom rom?

I am on XSLIM v2.31 KK Rom

mmmm it brings back a slight memory that this is why I abandoned sony based roms because there was so many bugs especially this one.
And that I hated the sony ui. Now I miss the old sony ui. The silly piano lock screen..
Back then I flashed slimrom kitkat because this was the only aosp or cm based rom that didn't drain the battery when the screen was off.
http://slimroms.net/index.php/downloads/dlsearch/viewcategory/1243-togari
I probably didn't do anything to solve this problem because no one else had this issue when I brought it up.
Thanks SUPERUSER!
I totally understand about the bugs, it’s a trade off for sure. By chance could you recommend a "better" camera.app than the default one provided by Sony?
Thank you!

I tried most of the camera apps out there a month ago..most of them are filled with crap features, ads, a splash screen or welcome screen on start..why would I want that and other things that doesn't belong in the app.
Its a camera app not facebook or whatever random features included in it.
The few I found to be somewhat worth keeping are:
Camera FV-5 Good app. You can crash the app if you're doing heavy work or fast pressing or swiping in menus. But its not filled with any crap or unnecessary features that no one asked for unrelated to the app being a camera.
CameraMX <-- this one has a welcome screen...and other crap included so you dont get right in to the camera on launch. To get to the camera on launch: Press menu and tick "Open camera on start".
But the app has a Time lapse video mode so its why I kept it for when I might use this feature.
OpenCamera is my classic go to. Its a straight forward camera app with no crap or ads.
You might have heard of Manual Camera app but its far from every device that works with the app. And it has many bugs.
There are some other simple apps that has no wow factor like Moto Camera or Google Camera that works fine too I used the Google camera in the past because it does exactly what it suppose to. Take a picture.
SUPERUSER,
As always I am sending a shout out Thank You!
I appreciate you taking the time to respond in such detail and clarity. At the end of the day I just want KISS camera (keep it super simple) open app and it takes a photo, period.
Thank you dear friend
