Use this topic to gather all the elf suggestions and ideas.

there are many topics already, but each one has 2-3 ideas and don't link any reference to others previously posted ideas...

I have gathered many of them (don't think all, i may have missed some)

To all elf maker/expert, please take a look at all these suggestions and give us some informations about what could be done with the right functions and what is impossible to make due to hardware limitation or similar

HeapChecker - Visual Change - SIMcard Security - MSCONFIG - ideas from PabloMDiez

PabloMDiez, on 2008-06-05 02:56, said:

Simple:

1. HeapChecker: Every X time check heap memory size, if is lower than Y Bytes, so ask user to restart phone, with the option of Vibrate, Sound and Flash.
2. Visual Change: using no statusbar elf, show in that place the name of actual book, and at the right corner, show clock, signal and battery. If is on standby, show operator name. But where to put status icons? Maybe instead of the softkeys, or something.
3. A stupid simcard security: If inserted SIM is the same as ini setting, start phone, if not, send a txt msg to original number telling actual sim info (in case of stolen), and/or simulate being locked by operator "Inactive SIM", locking menu phone functions, too.
4. Freaky MSCONFIG elf: Check which elfs will run at startup, and copy it to daemon, or deactivate them, and delete from daemon.

I think idea #3 isn't possible since there's no Simcard control from library sad.gif but anyway.. I forgot other ideas, but if i remember them, i'll post them.

Transfer on Status Bar when minimized - idea from HaKs

HaKs, on 2008-05-11 19:45, said:

I just got great idea for elf.
Can someone do elf which shows xx% on statusbar(up where is battery, signal and other icons) when you are sending/recieving file over bluetooth(maybe IR too)
Maybe small between BatteryPercent -elf (left side on the battery) would be cool

this would be useful when you send some video or song and go to standby using bookmanager, so you dont have to go back to walkman(or "sending window") to see how much you have sended or recieved file

Improved BT Transfer Window - Idea from Photographer

Photographer, on 2008-05-25 12:35, said:

Hello

Personally I'd really enjoy an elf that shows more information when sending files over bluetooth

_______________OLD:______________________________NEW:_______________

_____________________________________________________________________

I could miss the Phone type indication cuz it's probably impossible, there are soo many phones!

Just a thought! It would be great if anyone can tell if this is possible.

Change Top Buttons function - Customize all positions in Standby - Idea from jamesbond22

jamesbond22, on 2008-06-05 07:25, said:

Remap joystick to Keyboard - Idea from D-Man

D-Man, on 2008-06-08 08:53, said:

i'm thinking in an elf to remap joystick to numeric keyboard, but i don't know if that's possible.

Changing Themes - Idea from Silenus

Silenus, on 2008-06-07 21:36, said:

Hey Everybody.

Seeing as every user at least here has more than 15+ themes in their cellphones.

I was thinking maybe with an elf we could rotate the themes automatically.

Like daily at a given hour the theme would change.

That way we can enjoy all of our themes, because most of the time we have a lot of themes we do not even get to see.

Well that is my idea, now what we need is a dev to tell us the possibility of doing this elf.

Awaiting your comments.

Possible with the correct function as mentioned by Ultrashot


Record Radio - Idea from CronoX

CronoX, on 2008-06-01 17:54, said:

hello boys....do exist it an elf that rec the radio!??!if not it is a good idea or not?

Search in Walkman - Idea from nortx

nortx, on 2008-06-08 08:22, said:

Hi! First sorry my bad English!

The Elf idea is the next:

You search in the walkman player, like in the Phone Number names... Just push the Numbers, and write the name... And jump the song, if you want...

I think... It's possible... Thanks guys! I hope, it's a wanted elf...

Thanks!!!

Sleep Timer - Idea from milan91

milan91, on 2008-06-25 17:11, said:

Maybe some elf for sleepmode(where we can put time, from 5 to 240min. and after that time our phones shutdown or music stop) like on TV and other gadgets

mibaksh, on 2008-06-25 18:06, said:

you mean like a sleep timer on ipods and bose control centres? i thought about that one also would be great

Photo Slideshow on Standby - Idea from Ciante
As the slideshow in the filemanger sections of Images and Camera, but on Standby and/or Sleepmode

Improved Note on Standby - Idea from Ciante
Normally you can display only one note in standby, need elf to improve by adding more notes on display that change every X times (defined in .ini)

ScreenOverlay - Idea from PabloMDiez

PabloMDiez, on 2008-06-25 16:02, said:

The elf will show a PNG (as mask) above the wallpaper. The idea is nice, since you can use Graphic clock, and Desktop, and having some kind of background for them, without editing each wallpaper smile.gif

More friendly Flightmode activation - Idea from VooDoo

VooDoo`, on 2008-06-26 00:31, said:

I need an elf for:
- real contact groups Waiting for a better explanation
- switching between flight mode without restarting the phone

Layout Refresher - Idea from Lic3ns3D

Lic3ns3D, on 2008-06-08 14:21, said:

Good idea for elf is 'layout refresher' or something like that.. Because many people try to work with width and heights in layout.xml and they must restart phone after each change...

Or eventually a Layout.xml editor/viewer to change things & see a preview

Crossfader in player - Idea from eng'g boy

eng, on 2008-06-08 09:56, said:

Flash player for non-flash supported phones - Idea from KingOfKingz

KingOfKingz, on 2008-06-08 12:33, said:

i think the font change elf would be amazing.....but still,an elf for watching .swf files on a w800i or k750i would be a revolutionary discover..... ;-) maybe it will be possible one day,may the Force be with us...... :-))))

New folder creation for older phones that doesn't have that function - Idea from andrei_3d

andrei_3d, on 2008-06-08 17:51, said:

I guess it would be very nice to make an elf for k750-w800 so that subfolders can be created, just like in the DB2012 phones and all the newer phones (you know, having that "new Folder" option shown in empty folders or in the "more" list).

Indexing Elf - Scheduled Opening menu - TimerShot - Ideas from r0x0t0

r0x0t0, on 2008-06-23 17:56, said:

1 - An index elf

Create an index of all your memorystick/phone files then search in them , also it should have reindexing when the phone is idle and scheduled indexing ( got the idea from the program that does this on PC , TurboSearcher)

2 - OpenMenu

Opens a menu by using a macro of pressed keys at a specified time
Example - at 3:00 PM open Settings > Display > Brightness and set brightness to 50 % by pressing joystick left 4 times
----------------------Rsoftkey->Click->2x right -> Up -> 4x left

3 - TimerShot

Takes a picture at a specified time .



These are just my ideas , i keep dreaming
