I would like to ask the programming heavy weights of this site to weigh in on the possibility of being able to design a custom user interface for Windows Mobile.. I am thinking something along the lines of Touch Flo, but designed by and created for PPC Geeks..
I first pitched the idea of creating a Custom Operating System for our phones in this thread... I was thinking a base redesign from the kernel up.. I really think it could be possible... I personally have NO coding skills, and am only starting to develop an understanding of how a PPC works.. But if people can create code for their own custom ROM's, or create ways to create new icon's, anything should be possible.. I may not be able to code, but I would be willing to donate time and effort into testing, and I know monetary contributions are always willingly accepted... Now an idea has been pitched for a custom UI that would be easier to design and create than an OS... Now I ask you... What is your opinion, comments, suggestions on this? Is it possible to create such an endeavor? I thank you for your time, effort and consideration in this proposed idea.. Last edited by BigDiesel07; 12-04-2008 at 03:17 PM. |

Re: Custom UI for WM ~ PPCG ~
I would invest time to learn how to code if we can get this to take off. I would also donate time and $. We should probably wait till 6.5 comes out though and base it off of that so we're not running an outdated os.

Re: Custom UI for WM ~ PPCG ~
We could call it "Android"
![]() The only problem here is you're looking at writing everything, or porting from other OSes. At that point, you might as well just port the whole thing and get rid of WinMo core too. If I were going to work for free (and I'm not ![]() To see why you have to write everything over, just take a look at TF3d - really nice experience, weird behavior with WinMo notification interactions, and "oops I fell off the edge of the world" experience as soon as you drill down to the kicking-it-old-school window mobile apps.
