hello, i've got the htc hd2. overall i'm satisfied. but i've seen at a friends iphone that instead of having all the quick links out in the open, he has icons of their libraries such as: programs, games, extra, news and more. once he presses a library it opens another window bellow it and he can select the prog he wants to lunch. i beleive if this is somehow available in the hd2, maybe through cookies editor or something like that, it would be great - time saving, organized, easy to use...
does anyone know of this feature in the iphone? is it a 3rd party app or some setting? is it possible to be activated or installed on the hd2?
thanks guys.

u can create subfolder in your /windows/startup folder and move there your start menu items
but i can't create those subfolders as quick links. it's as i would go and start file expolrer and look for the app i want, only in subfolders. i would like to have subfolders as quicklins...

yes u can, if u have a powerful file manager like resco explorer (not free) or any other free one around

the "latest" iOS feature of grouping in folders is a laughable attempt by apple to copy what windows mobile has had for AGES!
the iphone does not have a home screen. instead, it just throws all your program shortcuts on the home screen. the equivalent of this is the windows mobile "start" menu. one tap and you get the start menu to show off to your iphone pals.
the windows mobile "start" menu is more powerful because it offers n-level nesting and unlimited number of links within a "group" (lets call them folders because thats the correct windows mobile term!). finally, it offers mixing links and folders within a folder! not sure the iphone can do that.
as stated above, use a powerful file manager to create folders under your start menu, give them icons, and organize existing links under these new folders. add more than 12 links AND folders to a folder and throw that in your iphone pal's face!
ok. i like what you're saying... however, i am using the cookies home tab editor (i think that's the name) and i've removed everything (clock, tasks, calender...) from the home screen so i can have a picture of my beautiful wife and 4 icons of quick links at the bottom (not including the sliding bar of the windows mobile). so as a resault of this if i had folders on the main home screen i'd needed 4, the most important and that's it. and i have to tell you, i hardly use the START button. so, i'm still looking for something to help me place folders and not link to programs on my hd2's home screen.

there is a way: You have to put a .lnk in that folder and then it will show up on quicklinks for cht.
You can pm watcher64. He made one for me for a movies folder
Forgive my ignorance here. I bought the GTab from Woot solely to learn about Android and tablets, I just got my ipad2 and thats the one I planned on getting the most use out of, but honestly I thought it would be good to have an Android tablet in the house.
Of course, the default OS was painful, so I put on TNTLite and ran some apps and was pretty happy. I haven't used it much since. I am still trying to find a way to stream video to the tablet (and hopefully someday out to my TV, to retire my laptop).....and am not sure which app to use. For Ipad I can use Air Video Server.
BUT ANYWAYS...
The default portal screen on TouchNTap was, I thought, pretty cool....weather, news links and time with your apps available on the bottom row.
Tell me, is there a similar type of portal app you can use on the Gtab? Is there a way to make it just be an alarm clock or a picture frame until you pick it up and want to start using it as a tablet?
TNTLite is cool, and I installed ADWLauncher (I think that is the name), but all I am seeing is now a windows desktop-looking thing. Can you use that front-end with TNTLite? Or is it just adding widgets to a "home screen" like a clock, calendar, web browser, etc.
Thanks!
Take a look at this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=854175
If you want to alter TNT Lite to your liking, it's actually fairly straightforward - once you understand the layout.
When that firmware is run, it layers on a 100% stock image first, then I make the alterations later. You can alter either the updater-script (where the deletions are) or the /system folder (where the additions are) to tweak it to your liking. For example, if you want to keep the TNT launcher, just delete this line from the updater-script:
Code:
delete("/system/app/HomeScreen.apk");
That would add the TNT homescreen back, on the next firmware flash. This is just an example.

You don't need a "similar" portal app unless you just want it. Just sideload (move the files from your PC to the sdcard via USB cable and then click/install the apks from the sdcard) the original HomeScreen.apk, Weather.apk, Clock.apk, and News.apk - then use the Home Switcher to switch to the Viewsonic HomeScreen - if you want that to be your default.
I've done this since TNTL 2.0 because I also like the look and the options.
Other apk's that will fit into the default HomeScreen package are GroceryList and TaskManager. MediaPlayer will also go into the Viewsonic HomeScreen.
In case you didn't back up the original VS default portal files - I've attached them.
Glad to see I'm not the only one who likes the original VS portal.
Thank you
I'm going to be messing with this to see if I can get it to work......however, I do have one question, and its off topic:
Is there any way to put the Gtab into sleep mode the way that an ipad goes to sleep, so you just tap the screen to wake it up? Or have it so that way it has a permanantly on clock display or a rotating picture frame function with clock?
I'd like to buy the dock for it, but not if I have to hold the power button to wake it up all the time, I realize its a little thing but it is somewhat an annoyance.
Hello all,
I'm new here. First post. I hope someone can help me out, please.
I'm looking at a complex web page which has a section on one side which scrolls information in contrast to the main page area which remains static. When I touch the screen and move my finger, it just moves the entire page up, as though it is all one static image.
What setting do I need to change or what add-on do I need to download to allow it to see all the information in this scroll?
The website ends in ".jsp" if that helps...
All help is greatfully appreciated!
Recheck, if javascript is enabled in options(icon top right)>settings>advanced
Try changing UID ( from android to desktop), search for it there are many threads on it, with instructions!
If still vain, Can you share the webpage? Will try a workaround.
Though, I believe, it should show up fine! Without any modifications except for javascript enabled!
Thanks for the reply!
Javascript IS enabled. I didn't have to change it.
Try changing UID ( from android to desktop),
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
This instruction, I do not understand. I've looked for a setting but still unsure. Can you elaborate a little, please?
I'm sure there are other threads out there. I had a quick look on this website but saw nothing. I'm not sure what keywords to use to describe what's not happening for me. New to Android...
Unfortunately, I cannot show the website as it is work-related.
Well, here it goes,
type this in browser address bar:
about:debug
than hit go
new options appear in settings,
Choose debug> uastring> change to desktop
plus rendering normal and disable wide page display, in case it helps.
UID is user identifier> implemented by browsers for web servers to identify the incoming client browser as dektop or mobile device for some good odd reason! Perhaps, ah never mind.
Lastly, try firefox browser from app market if all fails.
I got the bit about Firefox but I'm afraid I couldn't follow the rest.
I typed about:debug and it did nothing I could see. The third time, it took me to some google search results.
I could see nothing in the settings about debug... but then I'm not sur wchich part of the settings you refer to.
I tried installing flash 10.3 but this made no difference.
Does anyone have any ideas on this please?
It isn't suppose to load anything, the page remains same. New "DEBUG" option appear in "settings". Just hit the top right-corner "option" button and go to "settings" than "debug" is that complex?
Type this
about:debug
press enter
go option>Settings than debug >than uastring> than choose desktop
Well that post isn't complex, but the first one was not spelt out clearly - that's why I asked for clarification.
For some reason, even though I did the above actions the first time, the debug option never appeared. Now this time it worked but either way, selecting desktop has not fixed the main problem as per first post.
Anyone with any other ideas, please let me know. Neither desktop nor flash 10.3 has fixed the problem!!
I cannot scroll down a sub-section on an otherwise fixed web page!
Wasn't spelt correctly? Strange! As both the posts appear same to me the only addition I did in former was add firefox option. Since I can't access the webpage, have no idea about the issue perhaps discussing with your company's IT advisor may help!
"spelt out" - it's a figure of speech. Not to worry...
Yes, the IT advisor is my next option but I've always found certain IT forums have been helpful with IT issues in the past so I thought I would try this one.
Have tried the following site on native android browser, honeycomb 3.1, and all panels scroll very well with touch swipe independently from the main web page. There's a scrolling marquee panel at lower right and its auto-scrolling as meant to. Is your tablet updated to honeycomb 3.1?

Hi, I've also experienced problems with the built in Android safari based browser and also the Skyfire browser app when perusing this site that has a scrollable text box within the main page. There are days when the content in the scrollable box is large and scrollable. This will cause these two mentioned browsers on Android 3.1 to improperly display the page. (note: if you view it on a day when that list box has a short list of news items and is not scrollable, then the Android browser will display it without scrambling text over text all over the place).
I just checked the site today and it is in a state that will cause the bug.
http://www.tabletpcreview.com/
I downloaded then Opera browser app today and tried this page and it seems to display all the contents on the screen instead of presenting it in a scrollable list box. At least Opera is not over-laying the list contents text over the main page text though. Go try it and see.
Hope they will fix the Android browsers to decode all pages in future update.
try the touchwiz stock rom, the scrambled text or over-laying the list contents text over the main page issue, at the bottom of the page, is completely fixed in android browser owing to samsung's native tweaks!

Hi mughalgxt, what is this [/B]touchwiz stock rom[/B] exactly? I have a Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 locked retail model which I have rooted and have already applied Pershoot's Overclock to 1.4Hhz kernel flash. The tablet is running fine as it except for the mentioned quirks.
Will overlaying this [/B]touchwiz stock rom[/B] directly on top of my already modified kernel and rooting mods upset anything?
Do you have a direct link you can provide here to get the exact version of this [/B]touchwiz stock rom[/B] that you recommended?
Edit Update: I just read a bit on that touchwiz stock rom modification and I does not seem perfect enough for me to risk messing up my tablet environment right now. I will wait for Samsung to release an official version for my Wi-Fi only tab 10.1.
Thank You!
[stock][eur]touchwiz rom, its directly from samsung, unmodded, on android development page posted by me! The browser displays the complex webpages unscrambled! The only notable issue is the UAstring! It tends to return to android mode from desktop on reboot! I have failed to note any notable speed boost from 1 to 1.4ghz overclocking more prone to freezes so far!Like to remain stock! If browser is your main priority than gotta try the stock rom and may revert back!
Before coming to Android, I had a Nokia N900 running Maemo 5 operating system, which, like Android, was partly open source and based on the Linux kernel. While there are certainly lots more apps on Android, there is one app from Maemo that I really do miss and cannot find a replacement for. The app I am talking about, goes by the name of Queen Beecon Widget and in the words of the dev, it is "A super powerful and customizable widget generation engine" http://wiki.maemo.org/Queen_BeeCon_Widget
It is a really versatile tool. Here are a couple of screenshots of my previous setups to show what sort of thing I am after. Most of the items you see on all three screenshots are created by using this app, as you can input any image that you want to be displayed along with the result, as long as it is a.Png
So, sure, I know about widgets that can cater for certain parts of this app eg. Widgetsoid, Minimalistic Text, Meta Widget etc. but what I am really after, is an on-device widget creator that can export terminal commands, as a result and directly onto the desktop. I have had a look at script manager and sm widget, but that doesn't seem to display the result directly onto the desktop (when I tap on the widget I have made, it opens up terminal, which defeats the object for me). Does anyone know of a tool, app or widget or even a combination of apps that I can use to achieve this?
Hopefully I have been clear enough.
I also wanted to post a very brief and simple way to explain what I am looking for. In basic terms, I need a (terminal) command execution widget that will display the result directly on the desktop.
The widget that accompanies Script Manager is sort-of on its way to what I need. Perhaps someone knows of an app like this, that is a bit more advanced, flexible and customizable. Any help appreciated. Thanks.
Anyone got any ideas?
Hey guys,
I haven't done Android dev in a long time, but I'd be very interested in starting again just to figure out how to make all (or at least a few of the major) apps work in dual screen stretched mode like Chrome does. I'll have the phone by tomorrow, but does anyone know where to even begin looking into something like this?
If we can figure out how to make it happen, I'll gladly start modifying apps and share them so that they can be stretched across the dual screen. I'm sure it's just a flag in the App Manifest or something very straight forward like that.
Any devs with any pointers?
Here's the contents of my app Manifest of chrome on my Note 10+.
https://pastebin.com/14nWYsD1
Can anyone please paste the manifest from their G8x?
If you have Solid Explorer, on the left slide out tab, tap on Applications, then in System Apps find Chrome. Inside there's a button on top that says "Browse". Just tap that and the manifest file should be in the root folder (first thing you see).
Could someone please paste their Chrome manifest file from there?
Thanks!
For example, in the Samsung one there's a few tags like this to enable Samsung (and Note) specific features within Chrome:
Code:
<meta-data
name="com.samsung.android.sdk.multiwindow.enable" value="true">
</meta-data>
<meta-data
name="com.samsung.android.sdk.multiwindow.penwindow enable" value="true">
</meta-data>
If we can find something like this for the LG sdk, we can enable split screen mode in any app we want.
I will extract my own Chrome app manifest tomorrow, but I won't be able to modify an existing apps until Monday or so. .
For completeness sake, and for anyone else who wants to follow along, here's the manifest from the LG G8X Chrome app:
https://pastebin.com/cz3zLrXq
Todo: find something LG Specific in the new manifest, copy it over to manifest files of other apps and see if it works. Unfortunately this is going to take me a while since I don't have my PC this weekend. More to come this coming week!
Update: looks like both versions are the same. Which means the info is not in the manifest file. I'm not sure where else it would be...
Will keep looking this weekend...
So it looks like I'm using this thread as a progress marker.
I found an app called "second launcher". Trying to see if this is a lead or a dead end.
For those interested, here's the manifest file:
https://pastebin.com/YgyLUgJn
This might be of particular interest...
Code:
<provider android:name="com.lge.secondlauncher.allapps.AllAppsDBProvider"
android:readPermission="com.lge.secondlauncher.permission.READ_SETTINGS"
android:writePermission="com.lge.secondlauncher.permission.WRITE_SETTINGS"
android:exported="true"
android:authorities="com.lge.secondlauncher.AllAppsDBProvider">
</provider>
Thanks for this, man. I'm shocked only chrome and whale use wide view.
You probably already know this, but:
The second launcher is the home for the left screen. I'm using Nova Launcher right now and it only affects the right screen. The left is still using Second Launcher
Hey, yeah I gathered as much. I'm trying to see if there's a list or something in this app that is basically an allow list.
What I found interesting is that on apps that are allowed to stretch, when they do stretch across both screens, it affects everything not just that app. The keyboard, notification shade, task bar, etc etc. This capability exists, and there's just one place where there's an allow list somewhere. I just have to find it...
Including when taking screenshots.
All I did between these two screen caps, is press the wide view button. I took the screenshots from the hardware buttons so it's a system wide recognition of the new "wide" state...
I just learned a couple things:
1. Wide view is definitely just a resizing of the screen/elements. If you have wide view on and you're asked for a fingerprint, the whole thing breaks. The fingerprint symbol is in between the two screens and you have to tap it to enable the scanner on the main screen. I.e. you need 2 fingers to use it. (Screenshot below).
2. I found LG development site with a guide on how to enable widescreen view in apps. It seems a bit incomplete, but I'm looking into it.
3. Wide screen works in 2 different modes: 1) the entire Android interface stretches across both screens, the break in the middle is not handled and it's a bit wonky. 2) The app knows there's 2 screens and behaves accordingly. Only certain activities are opened on the second screen and there's information exchange (i.e. gallery app/camera app).
This second more seems a bit more involved/complicated. The first mode just tells Android that the two screens are just one big screen, feel free to stretch across. This is the one I will focus on for now. Maybe if I get time, I can make apps behave across both screens.
What this means: you probably won't see an app which shows independent "panes" like Gmail across both screens, or an e-reader with pages across both screen, unless they are specifically coded by the original developers. A lucky break could be if the app is coded as such, and could somehow be convinced that the doi is changing or it is now in landscape mode. Then it could switch to it's different configuration.
Anyway, let's see what I can uncover. Maybe on Monday I will dust of my old laptop, and try to get the LG dual screen demo app working. Once it does, I can try to extract and modify currently installed apps.

2. Where did you find the guidance? All I know is the old dualscreen api sdk with no wide mode
Have you tried force all apps resizeable & secondary display option in developer menu?
I also think there is some kind of lists for dual screen wide mode supported apps. Just like the lists of some apps to access certain features (auxillary PentaCamera, multi window etc)
Have you tried to launch QSlide on wide view mode? There's a developer kit to launch some apps using qslide

Lg has a link to their LG Dual Screen SDK on thier site. Looks like a great start
EDIT: It also looks like the system uses Googles Foldable screen API 29 even though my phone is only running Android 9. I assume this means that the device needs to have the "resizeableActivity=true" in order for the Wide View button to appear. I am looking through Whale and Chrome now to see if that is indeed the case and if an older version of either without this snjipped of code supports wide screen
Looks like it's probably "com.naver.WhaleMediaStandaloneDualFullScreenActivity" where things get interesting... Looking through chrome now
Within the manifest of Chrome:
Code:
<activity theme="@7F14024B" name="org.chromium.chrome.browser.media.PictureInPictureActivity" exported="false"
excludeFromRecents="true"
configChanges="0x00000D80" noHistory="true"
resizeableActivity="true"
supportsPictureInPicture="true">
</activity>
Final edit: AAAANNNDD here's the manifest for whale:
Code:
<activity android:theme="@7F140101" android:name="com.naver.whale.dualscreen.DualScreenTabActivity" android:exported="false" android:taskAffinity="com.naver.whale.dualscreen" android:excludeFromRecents="true" android:configChanges="0x00001FB3" android:windowSoftInputMode="0x00000010" android:hardwareAccelerated="false"
[COLOR="red"]android:resizeableActivity="true"[/COLOR]
android:supportsPictureInPicture="true">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="com.naver.whale.dualtab">
</action>
<category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE">
</category>
</intent-filter>
</activity>
So I'm pretty sure this is the puzzle piece we need. If we can root the device, we can force this activity any app an force full screen.
Though, Gmail has this and it does not do any sort of multi screen view for me... Hmm...
Yes! Thank you!
This is what I saw earlier as well, that it says it used the Google foldable APIs but did they back port it? I assumed (like most Android manufacturers I e. Samsung) that they just developed their own thing, so I was surprised to see them mention Android foldables.
Do you think all it needs is the resizable activity true in the manifest? If that's the case, I'm going to try it on some of my apps and see what happens!
Will report back later tonight!
I don't know for sure if it's the only thing, but Google's Dev notes on foldables mention this specifically, good luck!
I may mess with something here or there myself, this dual screen thing has a ton of potential
Yeah so I don't think that's it. I checked GMail and also checked Google Maps. Both of those have this in their main activity but neither of them support it. It may be PART of the puzzle, but it's definitely not the missing piece. Will keep looking further.
So I found something that bothers me a bit....

Unfortunately, 3rd party apps can't use the APIs. Because those APIs can use only LG System App.

God, I really hope that's not true. So far it seems to be. Since Chrome/Whale browser, etc. are system apps.... Google Maps is not, so it can't... same with GMail…. honestly if this is true, I might return this phone. This is huge for me....
Ignore that, I think this is only valid for those specific APIs that the person in the forum referred to... please ignore my comments, carry on...
I was able to have the device spit out information about the two displays that are available. The second display definitely comes up as an HDMI display. I think I have a lead on how to get full screen apps to show up. More to come.

Some Korean apps (not system apps) can use dual screen perfectly. So it's not true. I believe it's like how LG older Multi-Window feature works, there are some lists of packages names for supported apps. There's also a way to build the code inside an app

Just tried it, unfortunately it shuts down wide screen moose and opens Gmail on the main screen only
Also, have those apps a shot. You can do some dual screen settings, but nothing like one large screen. Maybe I didn't go through enough settings, but I couldn't get the second screen to play nice

Tried both. Neither of them saw the second screen until it was pushed over to the second screen, then I had to re-enable settings and permissions. They basically just behave like two independent devices... it's very odd.
