O3touch brings us a perfect solution that integrates searching and contact managing with Email and Sms sending in one environment, in a real one finger operation, fast and easy to use - and all that for free!
My immediate reaction. After a day of use, I found myself asking “where have you been before?”.
I can not understand how I managed before. I don’t find myself any more thinking twice before going into the process of sending an Email or texting. Now I don’t think twice – it’s all so easy and fast.
We have seen many applications dialers trying to deal with these issues, not even close to what has been accomplished by o3touch. They are heavy, slowing down the device and don’t really do the whole job.
Suddenly everything is big! From the contact name to the text message, not to forget the incoming caller’s name.
Searching, writing, replying, editing, you name it, it’s all visually clear and easily done with one finger – you can forget your stylus at home!
One of the most amazing features is the high ability to customize the o3touch to your preferences. There are 40 deferent setting options.
You can decide what functions you want to take advantage of.
You can adjust the speed of the app, select keyboards combination, change the entire UI language, sound level, visual effect and much more.

The red squiggles show where I think a clue could be placed to show there are more items in the list. It could be an arrow key or any standard method of indicating there are moe things out of view. The red and green arrows are just possible alternatives. The programs touch flo screen could do with the same as it is not OBVIUOS there are more items to be seen.
A nice silver triangle button that fades when there are no more items would be cool.
Some may ask why I suggest this interface usability tweak (in any format). Good question.

Hmmmm......after using TF3D or even READING THE MANUAL it is obvious that there are more items to display.....
Don´t need an arrow in e.g. the contacts application to remind me that there is more than just one page.......but then again, that´s just me.......
BTW: I´ve long turned off TF3D for a less funky but faster and more usable interface.....
But
RTFM and learning are not available to the people who are not 'lovers' of the technology.
They pick it up, look at it, and don't enquire..
Many business users are almost or over, half a century old.
They wouldn't see the value of XDA Developers, etc.

Click to collapse
If anyone, for any reason, does not read the manual of the device, they don't deserve to use its full potential.
Hi there,
Listen, Robert Ferris created a great little tool BAF GPS Toggle (link). I really use it all the time. However, as you can see in my screenshot it does not go well with a Touch Pro visually. It is really difficult to open and start with a stylus as the space is very limited and often I open an adjoining program/function....
As Robert seems to be busy and said not to have time to keep developing this further, I think it is up to us to make the necessarey adjustments. If I want to do that,... Where do I need to make adjustments, how can I change the today line to fit the text? Where are the images, so I can increase their sizes? And would that do it?
Not only would it make a solution, but it would be fun to learn to do this myself as well.

By the way, I am leaving China for Australia and am not sure how often and how quick I will have access to internet. So if I don't reply immediately you know why.
Thanks for your advice!
I don't know about your program specifically but you can change the size of the text displayed by going to Settings->System->Screen
In there there is a tab called 'Text Size', you can change the size of your text there.
Thanks for the suggestion. However, that would change all text sizes... not this individual program line....
From the looks of it, the icon on the left next to the text is the cause. On a 320x240 screen (on the developers site) it displays as the same size as the text. But when you run it on a VGA screen the icon appears half the size.
The developer has to make this cosmetic change or you can resource hack the program to try to replace the icon (if it'll work)
...Sorry, just tried this for you, it won't change the line height if you resource hack the program. The author will have to make the changes internally to the dll.

One of my favourite apps is Tasker which allows me to automate parts of my phone. For instance, I get in the car, it turns on GPS, Bluetooth and it starts up my SatNav software. You can find it here.
From the day I had the app, the one glaring problem with it was the UI. It's stuck back in Gingerbread times and a lot has changed since then.
I recently saw a shared post on Google+ from Roman Nurik which showed various mockups of Android apps with a new UI. This made me realise Tasker seriously needs an update and I know exactly how it should look using the Holo design whilst retaining the original layout.
So here it is, my Tasker redesign. I'll be honest, I pictured what this looked like in my head, so I sat down, opened Photoshop and 40 minutes later I had designed something I thought worked great. It's the very first design so could probably do with some community input and refining. Let me know your thoughts.
Original post was from my Google+ Page, however figured I would share it with you here as well as I appreciate not everyone is on Google+

would be awesome! tasker is the best android app ever, but it looks like crap. well, the focus of the app is clearly getting stuff done, but a little bit for the eye wouldnt hurt
Just released a new app for senior citizens - TilePhone.
The app is specialized for old folks who are not used for smart phones and need a simple phone for voice calls only (no SMS no whatsup etc.).
If you have a spare smartphone after an upgrade, grandpa can now use it without getting lost in all of android possibilities.
The app was developed for my 85 year old father and he uses it daily with much success, for calling his close relatives and dialing a number occasionally.
Usually smartphone have much better speaker then small dum phones, so a smart phone may be a smart choice specially if you install tilePhone and prevent the user from getting lost.
Main Features:
1. 11 speed dial buttons you can configure from the phone contacts list.
2. Hardware keys locked to prevent the user from accidentally exiting the app.
3. Configure or exit by swiping down & pressing the notification (swipe down is extremely difficult for the senior citizens we target).
This is how it looks:

I admit, Android phones could be great if they were refined, settings organized, touchscreen offset and calibrated, and applications made for it weren't lazy copies from iPhone riddled with malware, but unfortunately that isn't the case, also multiple restrictions, no control over application permissions and self-changing options are the most annoying part of Android.
Good luck removing that malware that cant be removed, installing antiviruses that don't do a thing, setting the screen time-out to "Never" or taking emergency school work pictures when your Android is at 10% battery, or asking for support on forums wasting hours of your life.
Me I'm done, parents and grandparents all been switched to iPhones, all problems suddenly disappeared, nobody is bothering me to fix their phone anymore :good:
All phones are encrypted and protected with 20 character passwords, yet unlocked in split second. (Granted, you can have that too, if you choose to encrypt aka marry SD card to your phone forever, but 99% of you wont take that chance, so setting any passwords is a pointless exercise.)
I'll hang around to answer some questions if anyone has gotten any.
lol...I'd like to post a "coolstorybro.jpg" meme but that would be rather rude for my part...instead I will close this thread and go back to watching my stories on TV....
