Whats about VGA-Software on Touch HD?

---

Hey guys,

i love the design of the new HTC touch HD. But whats about the mainstream VGA-Software? Will that work on this WVGA-Device?

Greetings,

Nick, good point, asking myself, too. In the past WinMobile apps scaled well to larger resolutions, so I hope with this step it will be the same.

had the same Q..
so take look here http://www.portegeclub.com/forum/ at te 3rd Party Software
the Toshiba Portege G900 as the same screen res.

some apps will not fit the whole screen ...

but most of famous and valiueable apps will fit to 800x480

I think about all the nice freeware like Total Commander, TCPMP, iContact, and so on ...

I hope, they have no probs with 480*800.

For the Toshiba Portage (WVGA-Screen), there is a software called "WVGAFIX".
Look at http://www.portegeclub.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=628

If somebody can write this software for the Touch HD, all VGA-Software should be run normaly ...

VGA on HD

---

Have tried installing stuff on my HD and all works , vito contacts,skype,power sms etc all ok, only problem i had , and its only a small one, was with MEMORY MAP , it works ok,the maps look greart, but the bottom of the screen with the zoom icon etc is a bit corrupted, can still see and use them ok, but not quiet spot on.
TOMTOM 6 and 7 work, check which versions on other threads, and with gsen it works great in landscape too !
Google maps is really fast and again looks great on that big fat screen !!!!
overall im really impressed with the phone and coming from a TYTN II thats no mean feat .
If you are thinking of getting one....Do it !

Yes a great deal of software runs without any problems whatsoever.

For a quite extensive list of HD compatible software check this if you haven't:

memory map fix

memory map works fine, the dodgy icons along the bottom are not actually caused by any res probs...... its the standars htd black today theme, to fix i did this

i downloaded a random black tsk them file and put it in windows
click settings/ today, choose the new black theme...

you can test this by choosing any of the defaults such as guavva bubbles or windows mobile green, but if course u want black still so search google for black today theme / tsk file
