Hey everyone, Cancel works fine now!
LPotter,
The more I play with this ROM, the more I appreciate it. THANK YOU
I like:
- the way the icons bob when activated
- the nice clear hourglass when waiting (like 1.6, but unlike 1.5)
- not to mention how nice and clear and neat everything looks (I notice this particularly as my eyes are having more trouble these days...)
- The fact that you can show details on packages in the package manager (like 1.6)
- The fact that everything is installed by ipk and thus, can easily be uninstalled (by those of us who are not that familiar with unix - for others, it's always easy I gather) if there is something with similar capability that we like better. (again, like 1.6 but unlike 1.5)
- The choice in how icons are displayed in the launcher (like 1.6)
- the plugin manager is nice
- The today view is quite fetching. (though in the world of comprimise, I don't know that I'd give up the extra functions of ko/pi for it. It is pretty enough to make me think about it anyway)
- The video player is nice to have. I haven't tried to play videos much, but have been jealous nevertheless, that kino doesn't work on the 5000d.
- I like the music player having check boxes beside all the titles.
- I like being able to adjust volume (with large buttons) from the player
- I like the built-in style adjustments ( 'cuz I always add that anyway )
-
Some things would be nice if different:
- The music player would be so much better with a (large) button for turning off the screen (and have it all turn back on when the cancel button was hit). The older media player had a (small) button for this, and it made playing mp3's in the car SO much better.
- I find the documents tab rather useless as it is. I liked the one in 1.5 a lot better. Is there a way to add categories? If there were, that would change things, as it would then be the means of categorizing mp3s for playlists. (and other documents, but music benefits the most) As is is, "business personal unfiled" just doesn't do much for me, and the tab takes a long time to load (I have large CF cards ). For file browsing itself, your advanced FM and treeview have things covered nicely.
Actually, could there be a way to enable/disable the documents tab regardless? That would be very helpful.
- Umm, whatever happened to that great little "Tab Settings" program in 1.5 that dissappeared in 1.6 (and 2.1 beta)? Could we have that back again? Tab manager works, but to be honest, I really like the origional Tab Settings a lot better.
Are you looking for bugs?
System info just refused to load on my just now (but gave a very nice error message instead of just hanging). Said it was due to application error 11.
I also am getting "critical low memory" messages, which just reinforces the fact that I can't use this without the 0 - 32 configuration. 32 mgs of ram is really skimping, and 15 is really pretty unusable.
The QT logo on the startbutton is too big on my machine. It only shows the bottom right quarter of the Q.
Woops, software packages was just terminated due to app error 11 (trying to install the memory applet which lets me add swap files easily). and then hung. somthing tells me "error 11" is related to lack of memory.
After reboot, I have the memory applet installed, but it apparently fails to activate the swapfile on either SD or CF.
(update, swap file works fine on a reinstall - probrably leftover "stuff" on the SD last time)
Thanks!
