Hehehe!

The version at the moment is still a development version - hence a few blank placer windows :P
It does go nicely with your theme though!

I'm slowly adding things to the blank windows over the coming weeks....


I am however hitting a few problems with qt....

The following sections either dont work or won't work correctly on maemo (QT Mobility)
audio-input/output
Haptic Feedback
keyboard lights
main led's
(unsure on gps, will try today)

So whilst i'm still adding things, i'm trying to think of a sensible way round the above. Not really wanting to use gstreamer etc as it moves away from multiple OS compatibility.....

For the GUI, those buttons which can be pressed should be somehow more clearly visible compared to others which do not have anything to click to. Like different color in the background. For example in Cell / Phone screen, the top right "sub-window" is actually a select list but it is hard to notice just by looking at it.

Is that gauge meter in Cell / Phone -screen a signal strength?
I do not quite understand that screen. I have "3G" on main status bar, but Healthcheck says "GSM" and shows some value of 50%

Where possible, would you please add the "HW revision"? I believe it was in one of the earlier release but it appears not in V3 anymore.

also the swipe action is not that smooth on my N900(I have power kernel 42(max at 805hz), and with swappolube recommended settings)

cheers,

Can you go back to the old version...sorry this NEW version suck bad....i hate the interface and i hate the scrolling and something is missing ....i just don't like the interface. I can't go back to reinstall and make the old version work again because some python files are missing and so it doesn't run.

I prefer version v1.2.0-3

romanianusa, i mean this in the politest possible way......... No.........

Many many reasons why........
a) you are rude
b) you are rude
c) you are not constructive at all
d) you are using software from extras devel
e) did i mention i think you are rude?

What i would prefer is for you to think about it a bit and explain what parts of the old and new versions you like....
Maybe what navigation would be best in your opinion?

Lots are missing as i have not finished it, the gui is a test to see how well it works (not that great) ... but how else am i going to design something people like without first getting it wrong?

Hi Zimon,

That screen is still a work in devel, the box is a selection box, so click GSM etc and a listbox appears. works fine on gsm and wifi i think, but the others are a bit iffy.

And a i agree, they really do need an fx overhall,

Hi cheve, will do
Forgot about that one :P

Yeah the swipe action is a bit slow, as it reloads all the stuff as you swipe, so takes a little bit...

Going to probably swap the swipe action to something a bit simpler i think :P

i don't think we should compliant, better to say we don't deserve complaint to any developer since they are providing softwares for free.they are keeping our device alive by developing free apps.i welcome any improvement or changes to any apps

if i don't like new change in any apps all i would mildly request him to help me.and definitely i will never hate any of developer.

so,in the last i realise that i think no human with heart can say or use this "HATE" words for any developer.

and yes you are rude!

hehehe
Thanks Nicholes

I think thats enough of a rant from us
Any constructive issue is a good issue - and the guy does have a point :P - it does look rubbish

I started again with a new look today (don't worry - the code is all done, so shouldn't take too long for me to swap and change!)

I need to try and find a visual look that works with the constant updates!

Allthough, correct, hate is a bit harsh!! - would have preferred:

as I am using an extras-devel application, i will provide feedback:
The scrolling doesnt work very well, to slow and hard to use
the interface(ie, everything) doesn't look right...
And lots of things are missing
But feedback comes in many ways hehe

It does beg the question, how would people like this information displayed?
A lower menu bar that can be hiddem? and main window with pop-out windows?
a dial on the side of the screen?
Or use the top menu?

WTF...did i ever said i hate the developers?? Get some clues!! I only express my opinion. My opinion is the UI is not intuitive....not user friendly, not appealing. I hate the UI...i don't hate the developers....get your fact straight!

If i can install the previous version...i wouldn't be bother coming in here but IT seems you can't go back to the previous version due to some incompatibility issues....that is the problem i have.
