Developer's Corner Discussion / NOSTALGIA - I NEVER THOUGHT I ...
Last post by Abram - June 02, 2008, 11:31:57 AMFirst of all thanks to jhollin, uk, wichtel, and all you guys for keeping this program going. I've been lurking as a guest a few times. 
I have moved through several devices & software over the years and I still find myself thinking TP was the best not only for the time of its development but also its ease of customistion. On my current device, (HTC Athena, I'll probably change it soon as my contract soon ends) I'm using the HTC Home, SBSH Pocket breeze5.4, ILauncher3 and Pocket Weather2. I'm still amazed that it takes all these 4 together to do what TP was doing on its own.
I still think TP should live forever and hope that someone would have the authority to make it open-source or something, stipulating that it should be forever freeware. Let people get creative with it and give it more life, new life. I'm sure they'll welcome the challenge at xda developers where I now frequent.
And NO, I'm not opening new wounds but thinking that something good should come out of the pain of the old wounds. Also, I still can't program and I even wonder if I can still edit a config txt file (so I'm not personally promoting my agenda). No, that's not quite right! I do have an agenda!
I'll be the first beta tester on new devices if you ever need someone to.
Best wishes to all,
Abram.
Special thanks to uk_skinner for all your help, especially with reduced TP skin.

Help and Support / Several Problems with TD+
Last post by KidR - February 17, 2008, 03:42:48 PMI´ve got td+ on my vpa compact 4 now. it´s installed and working about 50% 
the first block is the sunrise and sungodown with times. everything´s fine. next to that there should be the weatherinformations i think. but there are only 3 white circles which are crossed with a line..nothing happens(i found the cties in the config so i think they are correct) my online-status is also alright..i can open websites and stuff like that.
my second problem is the agenda. i think this is the section whre my calendar should be seen with important dates and so on. but it´s always empty. i can push any of the button on the agenda-screen..nothing happens. it says it is updating but nothing happens..
my third problem is another "field" on the today-screen. that´s probably for the newsticker. if i open this section i´ve got 4 buttons on the left. if i push the first one the next 3 get green but nothing happens. if i push the first one again the other three go back to red( i´ve tried several adresses for the rss..don´t know whats wrong there and i don´t know what the cache of pages means. if i say 2 it caches to din a4 pages in my display ? really don´t know)
the next thing i don´t understand is the storage thing. i always read you have to make the path of this and that but wtf...i don´t know how to find the path to my main-memory and i don´t know the path to my microSD card where you can look up the status..
last but not least i have absolutely no idea what the poom is or are. i don´t know what to choose in the config and how it works and what it changes...something with category icons..sorry..no idea :-/
i´m very very sorry about my ignorance...i´ve read a lot in several forums but i didn´t find any special answeres to my problems.i´m getting frustrated although this td+ should make it easier
by the way the shortcuts are working great
a million thanks to everybody who can help me with that...
greetings
KidR

HammerSkin / Re: Hammerskin Disappears in 2...
Last post by Wichtel - January 24, 2008, 03:17:11 PMSorry for the delay, here is the correct code.
In Region 2 Mainpage
In Region 5, 9 and 10
So you have to update 4 Regions. You can use this Update for QVGA and VGA Skins. Take a look on the var33 or var 16 in this example, you must use the var from your skin (that's important) otherwise you get a malfunction in your skin.
With this Update the Hammerskin works into the year 2009.
Good work mfigrs
In Region 2 Mainpage
Code Select

HammerSkin / Re: Hammerskin Disappears in 2...
Last post by mfigrs - January 22, 2008, 12:37:30 PMAh, I forgot. I also edited the section of the skin's .TXT file "// Angabe der calendar week (KW) of the year", around line 600, to reflect the correct number of weeks. My code is as follows: (I hope Wichtel, that you don't mind )
if,var,var33,,<,38355
//Jahr 2004
addvar,var33,-37977
else
if,var,var33,,<,38719

That is it.

HammerSkin / Re: Hammerskin Disappears in 2...
Last post by mfigrs - January 22, 2008, 12:34:25 PMI have already updated the skin by myself. I have just edited the .TXT file and extended the "TIERKREISZEICHENANZEIGE BIS EINSCHLIEßLICH 2007" section to 2008. The code start's around line 220 in the file.
The whole section after editing looks like this:
if,var,var16,,<,38353
//Jahr 2004
addvar,var16,-37988
else
if,var,var16,,<,38718
//Jahr 2005

//Jahr 2007
addvar,var16,-39083
else
//Jahr 2008
addvar,var16,-39448
endif
endif
endif
endif
It was pretty simple...

SPGM-Vid / Re: Thumbnails/Captions How To...
Last post by SCrowther - January 17, 2008, 04:57:57 AMNo solution to this posted so for others who like myself wishing to know the answer ......
It did not work for me either so I did some digging, and found that the spgm.conf file needed changing, the toggle that allows showing of captions with thumbnails was rem'd out and so defaults to 'false'. Unrem and ensure it's set to 'true' and all is well.

HammerSkin / Hammerskin Disappears in 2008
Last post by Wichtel - January 03, 2008, 06:14:51 AMHi Folks
the Hammerskin Disappears in 2008 from your TodayScreen. It's a problem with a variable this reaches only to 2007.
I will fix the Problem in the next Day's.

Developer's Corner Discussion / Re: Problems with tpfans.com -...
Last post by GJCV - January 02, 2008, 05:22:48 PMQuote from: mfigrs on January 02, 2008, 11:35:54 AM
I am fortunate enough to reside in the USA, where TP still works. But I'd really like to have this issue addressed. I am not a programmer, but in case any help is needed, I am willing to help.
Indeed, it would be nice to resolve this issue.
@ Uk_skinner:
If you don't have time to look into it (which I respect), would you perhaps be willing to release the code so that we could give it a shot?
Thanks. GJCV
