Draft:Anycall (User Interface)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
  • Comment: In addition to being entirely unreferenced, I'm not at all convinced that this would be an appropriate topic for a general encyclopaedia, and even less so in this level of detail and extent. Perhaps better to selectively merge the salient points into the main Samsung Anycall article instead, where this is already covered? DoubleGrazing (talk) 08:20, 10 February 2024 (UTC)

[edit]

This document summarizes the UI for each product of Anycall prior to Samsung Touchwiz . SHW-A305D, SHW-A301S, SM-B510, and SM-B520SL, which were released after the Anycall brand was abolished, are also included in the description. Anycall's UI is divided into different UIs before skin phones appeared in 2006, Black GUI that changed after skin phones appeared, White GUI that only changed colors from Black GUI in 2008, and Personal UX that changed its design radically.

Anycall's UI has changed a lot compared to other companies at the time and is often mixed up. In particular, it was very severe in sound and ringtones, but even phones with the same UI that came out at the same time may have differences in sound effects and ringtones. This is because the so-called 'concern about the ringtone', which changes the name or tone of the same ringtone, is very serious. Also, in the early days, even if it was the same product, even if it came out at the same time as the telecommunications company, the effect sound was different for each product. With the introduction of Personal UX, the carrier problem was almost solved, but other problems remained.

The operating system was originally Qualcomm Rex OS.[1] , but using the Black GUI as a starting point, a custom operating system based on NetBSD is developed and installed in-house. You can see the open source license in the user manual or in the device's internal menu.

carrier service screen sound message multimedia phone book diary content locker user settings From 2006, the design composition shown in the table above was established. The 'communication company service' has a different name depending on the communication company. SKT changed its name from SKT Service to T Service, and KT changed its name to Goodtime KTF[2] and NESPOT Swing[3] It was this SHOW[4] and then changed to olleh. LG U+ was LGT mobile and ez-i service in the 2G era, but changed to U+ mobile after launching the U+ brand in 2012. 'Multimedia' is different depending on the time. Except for SCH-W690 and SCH-W910, all Black GUI/White GUI equipped devices are 'Exciting Anycall', all Personal UX equipped devices except Samsung Master and SCH-W690/SCH-W910 are 'Anycall function', SM-B510 and later Ro is different from 'product function'. carrier service sound screen content locker multimedia diary message phone book User environment setting SKT series products and Samsung Master released since 2007 # Only the SKT series has a different design, and although it is in the SKT-related documents, SKT tends to interfere a lot with the product UI, no matter how much it gets criticized, such as the integrated message box . Even in some devices that use the left menu right view method, unlike the KT model where the SHOW button cannot be used for both confirmation, both the Nate button and the OK button can be used, making it easy to adapt even if you come from another manufacturer, and the W590 has arrow keys that function as arrow keys. There is an OK button on the touch screen that does not exist on the W5900. Some KT and LG U+ devices can also use the SHOW or ez button as a confirmation button, and starting with Personal UX, the middle button is changed to a confirmation button like other phones, so it is meaningless. Actually, this is convenient in some ways, but the problem is that there is an integrated message box.

Windows UI

[edit]

It has been applied to models supporting CDMA2000 1xRTT since 2000 , and was first applied to SCH-X100 and SPH-X1000 . The existing black and white UI has been changed to a method that opens a notification window, and this method continues to the White GUI. The notification window interface is also connected to the late-type Color GUI when the user-set notification window is combined. Power On/Off was also in the form of an animation and a phone number before that, but like feature phones that came out after that, the Anycall logo appeared and the power-on animation appeared.

In 2001, 16 chords were applied from SCH-X130 and SPH-X1300, and Color Window UI, which is the basis of Color GUI, was installed from Anycall Color Chord .

The Color GUI that came out after that was also made based on the Window UI.

Color GUI

[edit]

Used from 2001 to 2005[6] This is the interface that has been applied for the longest time. It is based on a 256-color bitmap. As in the picture above, when the screen is in standby mode, only a part except for the indicator part can be designated as a wallpaper.[7][8] Also, in the locked state, the background screen is changed to a background screen with a lock drawn on it.[9] At that time, there were 13 menus instead of 9. The start menu includes the 'My Mobile Phone' menu, and you can designate the menu by registering your own shortcuts and changing the icon. The home menu does not include the 'My Phone' menu, and 7 menus were available, but KTF and LGT were able to use 8 menus, including magicⓝ and ez services, respectively.

Until 2002, the interface was based on the Window UI applied from Anycall CDMA2000 in 2000 , so there were many reviews that the typeface or menu design was clunky compared to UIs of other companies.[10][11] SCH-W110 with a new UI in November 2003 and SCH - X850 in March 2004 were released, but the old UI was adopted again . The design has changed quite nicely, and in terms of design, it has changed quite similar to the Flash GUI, and the SCH-S260 paid a lot of attention to the submenus, but it was a transitional UI because it was still based on a bitmap, and this UI design was the basis for the future Flash GUI design. becomes However, although this attempt was made to overturn it, it was used in parallel with the existing old UI for several months after the release of the X850, or in the early days of the GUI, the AP performance was only 33 MHz, so the design was good, but the optimization was poor. The optimization problem is then solved by the MSM 6100, a 146MHz class AP.[12] , 6200[13] 6500[14] This was resolved with the introduction of Lastly, the device equipped with Color GUI is the old UI, SCH-E580.[15] , the new UI is SPH-S1100.

On some devices, the notification tone of the clear tone set is the mysterious tone of the Flash GUI. The S250 has a black GUI glass bead sound among slide sounds, and the E470 has a full version of Flash GUI's fun sound among folder sounds. In addition, the E560 has a full version of Flash GUI's fun sound during the booting sound. As an aside, the overseas release model, SCH-V122, differs from other overseas versions of the product in that it ate the color GUI's cyber theme, ringtones and sound effects as it is, and the game also contains a new version of Bomb Link QCIF, and only the brand was changed from Anycall to Samsung. Among the color GUI equipped devices, the SCH-S250 has the same ringtone composition as that of Flash GUI.

Based on the old UI, the typical fairy village UI[16] and underwater scenery UI[17] and cybertic UI[18] There is, but the underwater scenery UI has been applied to the most models, so it has been nicknamed "Seafood Party".

As an aside, the old UI of Color GUI was extremely reddened.

Flash GUI

[edit]

This interface was used from November 2004 to August 2009.[22] The initial stage of Flash GUI is a UI created by reflecting the design and interface of a new UI created by transforming the late color GUI (2nd generation). MSM6100/6500 or higher chipsets are installed, and as shown in the overview, the UI was different for each product before being integrated into the Black GUI . Of course, there was a time when the same menu was available for a certain period of time. The first device with Flash GUI was SPH-S1300, and the last device with Flash GUI was SCH-S540.[23] am.

The Any Dial function was also added at this time. It consisted of an ink pen and a memo board, and this composition continued to the White GUI. However, LED was added from the Black GUI, and in the SCH-S540, the ink pen, memo board, and LED that existed until the existing White GUI were deleted and replaced with marine boy, ink, and stamp among the any dials of the Personal GUI.

From the beginning, there is a service search animation limited to 2G phones or less that appears after the booting screen. Unlike the Color GUI, the type is one of idling. The important thing is that this was included in almost all models in the case of Color GUI, but it was loaded with luck in Flash GUI. If there is a difference from Color GUI, only the search animation repeats infinitely if communication is not caught in Color. For SKT and U+ products, the animation appears and ends after a certain period of time, but for KT, it repeats until the button is pressed. However, after Flash, whether or not it is caught, the phone number is displayed and booted only for KT and U+. Even if it is the same model, it may be different depending on the carrier. It is mainly used for KT, and the reason is not particularly known. Only a few devices that entered the Black GUI had an idle rotation animation, and since then, more 3G devices than 2G devices have naturally changed to USIM-recognized animations.

UI type

[edit]

roller coaster menu As the beginning of Flash GUI, the ring tone selection screen is in the form of a file explorer, vector fonts are not supported, and the button operation key is similar to Personal UX, not the left menu right check method. Mounted only on SCH-W120 . flash rhythm menu UI of SCH-S350 At this time, menu number 9 was the camera, which was later integrated into the multimedia menu. As shown in the video, there were many responses that the reaction speed was fast. Even though the resolution was quite low at 128x160 , the response speed was almost flying as it was equipped with the 146MHz MSM6100 AP, which belonged to high performance at the time. As of 2020, it is easy to understand if you think about the interface speed of the iPhone SE (2nd generation) equipped with the flagship AP A13 at 1280X720 HD resolution.

For reference, the menu movement method has changed from before. Normally, if you press the down key in menu 1, you go directly down to 4, but in the plate menu, when you press the down key when you are on the first line, it goes directly to menu 4 . Because of this, there were often users who struggled with operation. There is no such issue in the block menu.

Different product features

[edit]

SCH-V870 and SPH-V9900 are slightly mixed with Black GUI elements from before 2007. A clock has been added to the top bar, and Black GUI elements have been added to the theme. Due to structural problems, the SPH-S4300 did not apply the left menu right confirmation method that was used until the White GUI.[29] , Changed to a GUI presumed to be the predecessor of the Black GUI, vector fonts were deleted from the font change, and only basic fonts such as Anycall font, Yul font, Micro font, and Hand font remained. Also, most of the sound effects are almost the same as Black GUI,[30][31] , Rhythm mix category has been deleted among the ringtone categories. SPH-V6000/6050 is the only Flash GUI model that supports both portrait mode UI and landscape mode UI. B3200, B340 , B4100, B4150 , B490, S400, S4000, V850, V870, V910, V9100, V9150, W200 were replaced with xylophone, the basic button sound of Black GUI, only for the clear sound among the button sounds. The name is pure sound. The SCH-V700 has a built-in "Nature's Whisper", a ringtone not found in other models. Most of the default ringtones have been remixed on the SCH-B340 . # Among the basic ringtones of the SCH-S350 , some of the ringtones from the Color GUI model and overseas version are included in the Dance Dance and Modern Classic categories. # Compared to other models , SCH-S310 has fewer built-in basic ringtones, 5 per category. The SCH-V850 has 6 ringtones per category, and the surprise event category has been removed. The G100 and G1000 have a "game bell" category among ringtone categories. The S390, S3950 , and S400 have different boot screens from the models released at the same time, and are the same as some Color GUI models or Flash GUI models in the very early days. In the C230, C2300, and C2350, the menu movement sound is the same as the black GUI 's in-menu movement sound, and the function sound composition is the same as that of the Black/White GUI.

UI of SPH-V8900 UI of SCH-B570 UI of SCH-V940[1] carrier service screen[2] sound[3] message[4] Exciting Anycall phone book[5] diary[6] content locker[7] user settings This interface was used from May 2006 to June 2008.[8] It is the first UI installed on skin phones and will be installed on all Anycall terminals for a fairly long period of 2 years and 1 month. While the Black GUI was being used, it was also used in Windows Mobile-equipped smartphones that came out with the MITs brand.

characteristic

[edit]

Sound effects within the menu GUI are integrated into one, and block menus and highlight menus are supported. In addition, except for all QCIF models and very few QVGA models, icons corresponding to sub-menus are laid at the bottom of the block menu. In the C230 series and S series, icons corresponding to submenus are displayed for each item in the entire menu list like Flash GUI.

The feature of Black GUI is that the lower menu is listed in the submenu in the entire menu list, adding convenience.[9] It is said that people who used other brand products such as Cyon , Sky (Pantech) , and Motorola in those days and switched to products with this UI did not adapt to the UI.

In the case of a model such as the all-in-one phone (SCH-W320) , it was the series with the most functions among the Anycall UIs of all time, and after this, enjoyable functions began to disappear one by one.

Also, Samsung Electronics began to include the clock at the top of the screen that we always see when using a smartphone.[10] From April 2006 to early September 2006, it was in the shape of a digital clock, and from October 2006 to September 2008, it was Tw Cen MT (Gothic).[11] The narrow form of was used.

From this UI to the next UI, the White GUI, for CDMA models, the time setting function has been moved to the submenu of the airplane boarding mode settings, so setting the time requires a fairly complicated process. This does not apply to WCDMA models because the time setting function exists as a submenu of the user environment settings main menu.

[edit]

design In the SPH-W4450 , the highlight menu is omitted, the jazz menu is installed as standard, and the existing block menu is included as an optional option. There is no big difference between the jazz menu and the existing block menu. In all QCIF devices and very few QVGA devices, icons corresponding to sub-menus in the block menu do not appear at the bottom. In addition, it does not float even in the horizontal mode of a bar-type display equipped with a horizontal display, a swing phone, or a horizontal instinct model. Instead, only for the B710 equipped with a 3D display, the icon corresponding to the main menu appears whenever the menu is moved. Black GUI of Benz Phone 2 (SCH-S480/SPH-S4850) and Freesia Phone is a variation of the 1st generation Flash UI. The font composition also uses the elements of the 1st generation Flash UI. The default value is Anycall font, and Gothic font was entered as a vector font. In addition, these two ringtones are mixed with some ringtones such as overseas ringtones in addition to the ringtones of the early days of Black GUI.[12] The sound effect rehashed clear, fun, and mysterious sounds from the days of Flash UI. In the case of the highlight menu, it was loaded with assortment matching. If the submenu does not appear and the OK button is pressed, it operates like the existing block menu. In fact, it is safe to say that it is a Flash UI disguised as a Black GUI. In the case of devices for SK Telecom, the background screen of the telecommunications company was changed after the logo was changed to the wing of happiness logo, and the T logo was changed after the launch of the T brand, which was changed a total of three times. For W series devices, which support WCDMA for KT, the background screen of the carrier changed twice after the launch of the SHOW brand. Because the SPH-W2100 was released before the launch of the SHOW brand, a total of two changes were made. SCH-C230 (SPH-C2300/C2350) is also similar to the existing low-end models except for the variation of Flash UI and different clock fonts. As an aside, the standby screen of the rendering image on the first page of the user manual copied and pasted the standby screen of a QVGA class device, but the actual device was equipped with a QCIF liquid crystal. It was originally planned as a QVGA-class device, but the plan changed and it was released as a QCIF device in a hurry, and there was no time to modify the rendering image of the user manual, or it seems that it was just annoying and copy-pasted the standby screen of the QVGA-class device. However, since it came out as a C series, it seems to have changed to a QCIF device in the middle.[13] Since the SCH-W690 and VVIP phones are equipped with AMOLED displays, only the color has changed in the White GUI, and the No. 5 menu has been changed to the Anycall function and a beading sound is included. Also, the menu structure is 2X3. The highlight menu animation effect has been lowered on devices such as W2700 , W4700 , and B570 . Originally, it was an animation in which the light followed the angle of the icon, but it was changed to an effect that only emits light from the icon. From around 2007, some UI, such as the notification window, was changed. The design of the notification window, which was used until the Flash GUI, was newly changed to a square one, and a translucent black background was applied to the standby screen clock. However, for the S series, only the indicator clock font change was applied and the existing notification window design was used. Since W2100 is a 3G device released before SHOW, it has KTF background screen and boot screen for WCDMA. sound W5000 , W5300/W5310 , and W4950 have built-in Samsung Tune among built-in ringtones . In the Citizen review video, the B570 makes a 'cloud' ringtone when the menu button is pressed, and a 'digital' ringtone when the OK button is pressed . Even in the days of Flash, there were occasional phones with this function. A 'minimal piano' button sound has been added to the SCH-V940 . B450 , B5100, B5150[14] The W210 and W2100 are 128 chord models, but they do not contain 128 chord ringtones such as AreUReady and childhood. In the B570 , V960, and V9600, a new ringtone, "Little House in the Woods," is built-in instead of "Chopsticks March" in the love feeling category among built-in ringtones. The SCH-B680 has a unique ringtone composition. 'Dancing soap bubbles' is in the clear color category, and 'Thrilling', 'Waltz with you', and 'Breathe Breeze' are in the rhythm mix category. In some QCIF devices, the xylophone sounds clearer and louder than the xylophone of the existing QVGA devices. From what was confirmed in W290, W330/W3300 , W390M , W5000 , W5300, and W5310, it seems to be a software problem, not a speaker problem. However, since the C230 is a variation of the Flash GUI, it uses the existing xylophone,[15] After White GUI, both QCIF devices and S series use the existing xylophone. As an exception, the W2100 uses a corresponding xylophone even though it is a QVGA device. W290 is said to have a bug where the booting sound is heard as the shutdown sound when the power sound is set to space. W270 has 'Shooting Star' instead of 'Dynamic' among power sounds. Also, the sound of the folder is cyber, space[16] , three types of champagne. However, the W2700, a KT model, is included well as the sound effect of the existing Black GUI, but uniquely, the sound effect of the menu movement sound has a slightly higher pitch than before.[17] Folder sounds such as minimal pianos have not been named, but have been simplified to Folder Sound 1, Folder Sound 2, and Folder Sound 3. |In W270 and W2700, the crystal bell category has been deleted, and the number of built-in ringtones is smaller than that of other models. After 2007, SK Telecom models adopted T Folder (Slide) as the folder/slide operation sound as the integrated UI was applied. When the Goara phone W270 was re-launched in 2009, the exterior chuno mark and background screen were changed from SKT 3G+ to T brand as expected. However, the T-boot sound and folder sound were not added, the menu order was the same, and the integrated message box was not applied. Although the V8900 and W2100 are gift box and 3G WCDMA themes of the KTF brand, respectively, the booting sound of the flower theme was applied. How it works and more In the W5300/W5310, the bottom menu is not listed in the sub menu. In the highlight menu, only submenus are listed. In some models released in 2008, there was a setting for listing the lower menu on the menu selection screen. However, the highlight menu is not listed as a sub-menu like the W5300/W5310, but changes to a fake highlight menu like the C230 and S series. In the V890 and V8900, the first Black GUI devices, the initial development version or terminal for review did not apply the method of entering the lower menu by moving left and right in the in-menu, and had to enter through the confirmation button unconditionally.[18] In some devices, when the highlight menu is selected in the menu selection setting and exited, the in-menu of the existing block menu appears, and the highlight menu appears only when the cancel button is pressed once more. At this time, if you move the cursor in the in-menu of the block menu without pressing the cancel button, a very cool sound is heard.[19] Devices for SKT released from 2008 have an integrated UI, and at the same time, the NATE button can be used as a confirmation button within the menu GUI.[20] However, some KT models and LG U+ devices could use the SHOW button or ez-i button as a confirmation button. Confirmed on W3600.

Windows Mobile(MITs launcher)

[edit]
  1. The first menu of KT devices is NESPOT Swing only for devices that support Wi-Fi.
  2. Menu number 5 has been changed to MITs.
  3. Menu 8 is the basic program.

Criticism

[edit]

lower sound effect

[edit]

Although it showed good performance in the exciting Anycall and screen menus, there are many criticisms for lowering the sound part. Since Skin Phone applied this UI in 2006, the number of ringtones, which had been close to 50, has been reduced to exactly 30, and the sound effects have completely replaced the existing sound effects.[21] Also, there were many people who were disappointed that some of the notes in the menu were fixed. Of course, the ringtone problem was being solved by adding various ringtones since 2007.

Low-end model discrimination controversy

[edit]

Low-end models such as Benz phones accounted for about 30% of the Black GUI days, but there was criticism that the performance was too low. It is basic that the sound quality of the effect sound is poor and that the highlight menu animation is not supported, and some low-end models such as SCH-S480/SPH-S4850, Freesia phone, SCH-C230/SPH-C2300/SPH-C2350 are fake highlight menus that do not list anything. , The downgrading of the exciting Anycall menu was serious, so there were many cases where it lags behind the previous Black GUI. Even in the S series, Anycall is the default, and there is no dedicated highlight menu sound, and the highlight menu sound is a clear/fun/mysterious sound like the block menu sound. However, the low-end model was initially aimed at children and the elderly, had the necessary functions, and the price difference between the low-end model and the general model was not too severe, so it was passable.

White GUI

[edit]

This interface was used from July 2008 to September 2009. It is a modified version of the Black GUI installed in the pastel phone, and there is no change in the menu structure. Also, the design adopted the haptic UI as it is, and the overall theme was changed to white. The exciting Anycall menu number 5 has been changed to the Anycall function since September 2008. Originally, this UI was a soldering iron that was used instead of Personal UX in the domestic version of Anycall Soul, but due to this, the response of the domestic version of Anycall Soul was not very good. It was sparingly used for breeding. From this time, under the influence of TouchWiz, the number of battery compartments was changed from 3 to 5 from 2008. However, some devices ate 3 squares as they were.

Problems and likes and dislikes

[edit]

worry As the Black GUI gradually declined, Anycall users expected a new UI. However, the changed UI is just a change of color from black GUI to white, and advanced personal settings such as the highlight menu have become too simple like the list menu. If other menus have changed only the UI of the menu, the highlight menu, except for the S series and the C230, has changed even the sub-menus of the in-menu, which is a great feature enough to make a big mark in the history of Anycall. However, there was a lot of backlash to come up with such a worrying design. Also, in the S series, unlike the Flash GUI-based Black GUI days when there were icons for each sub-menu item, it showed the extreme of carelessness by simply putting numbers in gray squares without even making icons for haptic UI design, let alone worrying. In addition, the menu movement sound and sub-menu sound are fixed, but there are only two sound effects. One is the operation sound in the main menu and the up and down keys in the in-menu, and the other is the left and right keys. Deleted a lot of features In the past, Anycall's high-end DMB phones supported various entertainments such as Anycall Band and playing with My Pet. Devices with built-in gyro sensors also supported G-Fun, a gyro sensor-specific function. However, since this UI was installed, entertainment has been reduced to 5-6, unlike the Black GUI, which had 5 to 9. Even the S series had only bomb links, so if you wanted to play another game, you had to connect to Nate or ez-i and pay for it. Of course, in addition to the slow 2G download speed compared to the 3G of the S510, S5150, and S540, the pain of the terribly slow game speed was a bonus when I downloaded it and tried it. Discrimination of low-cost models This problem has actually been raised since the Black GUI. In the case of a Benz phone, the specifications were quite low for a follow-up, and even if some models did not support the animation effect of the highlight menu, it was controversial enough to hear criticism that the interface was a decoration for the S series and C230. However, starting from White GUI, discrimination against low-end models has become more severe. The menu sound is not applied, and the key sound is applied even in the in-menu. I did hear the menu button sound when navigating through the main menu. However, in Flash GUI-based Black GUI devices, at least the basic 3 menu movement sounds of the Flash GUI era were applied, and icons appeared on the in-menu.[37] As a result, the phone has earned a reputation for being reserved for the elderly rather than just for the low-end buyer. Adopt haptic design Accepted the UI of the 1st generation of haptics. At least, there are positive opinions that it shows a new look, and others say that it was just a rough icon.

Different product features

[edit]

White GUI of S510 , S530 , S540 , S5150 , S5350 is a variation of 1st generation Flash UI. The clock font also went back to the UI font used in the early and mid-2000s. The default font for the enamel phone is Gothic, but Anycall, a font that was used intermittently before the Black GUI, is included as an additional font. In fact, even in the days of Black GUI, Anycall font was used in low-cost CDMA models such as Benz phones (S480/S4850), but this is the default and has no gothic font. When updating some white GUI devices released as LGT, the OZ background and boot screen from the LG U+ era are added. The main menu theme of SCH-S540 is red. Of course, the overall guidelines of White GUI were followed. In addition, the menu screen adopts a new haptic design. The keypad layout uses the only Personal GUI model among Black GUI and White GUI equipped devices. In addition, the Any Dial has been changed to Marine Boy, Ink, and Stamp instead of the existing ink pen, LED, and memo board. hybrid The Soul Phone has a pink version built-in. Also, some of the ringtones are deleted and the ringtones of the Personal GUI are inserted instead. W510 , W590, W5900, W5950 are arranged versions of Samsung Tune ringtones. In the case of some models such as Soul Phone , SCH-C330D , and SCH-S540, the basic button sound of Personal UX, bead sound, was used instead of the xylophone sound, which is the basic button sound of Black GUI, only for the button sound. W590, W5900, W5950 , S510, S5150 , S530, S5350 , S540 have folder/slide operation sound other than music box instead of cyber and space, and the other models use Black GUI folder/slide operation sound as it is. For the Soul Phone, settings related to the direction key display have been added, and SKT and LGT models have OK in the middle. B850 , W510 , W5200 , W590, W5900, W5950 used the 3-segment battery icon that was also used in the Black GUI. Surprisingly, the enamel phone had different menu movement sounds depending on the carrier, and the SKT model S510 heard the menu button sound, which was neither clear nor mysterious, and the LGT model S5150 worried about the black GUI sound. Hourly notification sound The S510 has a first-generation female voice, and the S5150 has a second-generation sound. The notification window design is divided into two types, the first one is concerned with the 1st generation Black GUI[38] , In the second generation, only the color was changed to white in the Black GUI 2nd generation. Devices equipped with QCIF displays do not use the gothic font for the block menu, but instead use the Gulim font, while the SCH-S540 uses a raised font.

Personal UX

[edit]

This interface was used from 2008 to 2014. It first appeared overseas in April 2008.[39] Rather, it appeared before White GUI. The first applied model was Anycall Soul overseas, but the domestic version received a bad evaluation because White UI, which was hastily made by spec down, was used instead. In the beginning, Haptic UI design was used, then Omnia II series, TouchWiz design from Haptic AMOLED to the previous model of Galaxy S, TouchWiz 3.0 design from Galaxy S to previous model of Galaxy S III, and TouchWiz Nature UX 1.0 only for Wise 2 and premium folders. , A301S[40] was influenced by the interface of the Galaxy S5, such as changing to the TouchWiz Nature UX 2.0 design and turning the indicator icon white for the Samsung Master. BSD license from documentation . It is characterized by a significant increase in the use of open source frameworks compared to the previous one, such as the full text of the Mozilla Public License. In general, positive evaluations for solving problems that were too much of a concern coexist with criticism for overturning them. 'Multimedia' is only for the SM-B510 and later feature phone Master Dual 2G , but since the Anycall brand was abolished, it has been changed to a product function. However, SHW-A301S does not have the Anycall brand, but uses the Anycall function. It seems that the A300S was slightly modified to become the A301S.

In Korea, it is installed on several cell phones, including the Style Report phone.

evaluation

[edit]

positive evaluation

[edit]

multimedia improvements Many say that multimedia has definitely improved by accepting the criticism from the White GUI, adding various games, and installing G-Fun on almost all devices. Also, in 2010, you can freely move files by simply plugging in a USB. The use of content archives has increased. The 1st Any Ring ringtone is also included, and Over the Horizon is available for feature phones released in 2012.[41] Some of the Samsung Galaxy ringtones, such as etc., are also included. Diversification of screen menu settings The screen clock setting can be changed from a fixed font to a variety of fonts, and a 3X4 arrangement is possible by adding the menu to the existing 3X3.[42] , You can set the menu you want, and above all, you can use various themes, not just one theme, which is a chronic problem of black and white UI. In addition, users can create their own themes. However, the theme creation function disappeared around the time of the minimal folder, and then the theme function was deleted. However, for Samsung Master, theme changes are limited. To be precise, only the background can be changed. Abolition of discrimination against low-end models After 2008, as touch screen phones became popular and the use of folder phones and slide phones gradually decreased, it was decided to simply produce only general types. Therefore, all products differentiated from low-end models have changed equally. However, in reality, products such as bodyguard phones were seen as expensive and other models were inevitably seen as low-end, but fortunately, QCIF did not occur. However, magic hole phone[43] , Simple / Slim Slide Phone , etc., only the interface is QVGA.

negative evaluation

[edit]

Arbitrary reorganization that does not consider the existing tradition When moving from Black GUI to White GUI, it was deleted, but the existing tradition was maintained. However, Personal UX just became a completely new version. ringtone[44] , Background screen, ON/OFF screen, clock font, and game functions have changed drastically, and many users have found it difficult to adapt.

In particular, the clock font of the navigation bar is 'Acens', which has been around for 4 years.[45] As for fonts, WISE II and Premium Folder's standby screen clock font was replaced with TouchWiz Nature UX 1.0 font, which is subtly different from Galaxy S3. From SHW-A305D, the Samsung Sans font of the Galaxy Note 3 maintained the clock font of the idle screen from Android 4.3 to 4.4. For SM-B520SL, the indicator clock font is Samsung Sans, and the standby screen clock font is TouchWiz Nature applied to the Galaxy Note 4 . Changed to UX 3.0 style.

In Master Duel, the signal strength part was increased to 7 spaces in the style used up to Samsung Experience 8.0, and the battery icon was changed to a shape similar to Android KitKat, making it unbelievable that it was an existing Anycall UI . Of course, this is an existing feature phone OS that is neither Android OS-based nor Tizen OS-based. It is better than the White GUI, which claimed to be a new interface with only changing the color, but there were criticisms that it was too drastic a change. red shoes Compared to the previous GUI, the reaction speed was a little slow. Obviously, even though I used a higher-level chipset than the chipset of the Black GUI era, it is subtly sluggish enough to feel a little uncomfortable when I use the Black GUI and move on to this one. In particular, in phones equipped with low-end chipsets, such as MSM6260, which is installed in magic hole phones and simple slides, it is noticeable that the reaction speed is slow.[46] Comparing it to the products of the same generation , Cyon or KT Tech Ever, the difference is more evident. However, the optimization is definitely better than the Color GUI (especially the old UI).

Different product features

[edit]

design In feature phones released through KT from 2011, the carrier's background screen and boot screen have been changed to olleh , the carrier's service item has been changed to olleh, and SHOW Internet access has also been changed to olleh Internet access. However, despite being released in 2011, the SHW-A280K with the SHOW logo maintains the booting screen and booting sound of the SHOW era, and the carrier's background screen contains both SHOW and olleh's. Starting from the Nori F2 , the OZ boot screen has been changed to LG U+, and it has been changed once again in the master phone. In Samsung Master , the Anycall boot screen was deleted, and the Samsung boot screen used in devices released from the 2nd quarter of 2012 to the 1st quarter of 2014 was added. When turning on devices starting with SHW-A305D, only SAMSUNG appears, not '(TALK PLAY LOVE) Samsung Anycall'. Of course, the Samsung logo replaces the Anycall logo. In fact, until the slogan was changed to TALK PLAY LOVE, only SAMSUNG was launched as a black GUI equipped device.[47] The clock font of SHW-A330S and SHC-Z160S uses TouchWiz Nature UX 1.0 style. Feature phones released from 2013 include Over the Horizon instead of Samsung Tune. Among them, SHW-A330S and SHC-Z160S include the 2011 version under the name ' Over the Horizon ', and from SHW-A301S, the 2013 version is included under the name 'Over the Horizon'. In addition, some ringtones of Samsung Galaxy were installed, such as 'Scent of the Season' for SHW-A301S and 'My Drama' for Samsung Master 2G/3G. Instead, as there is no Any Call brand, Any Ring's first album has been deleted. For reference, some of the ringtones from Any Ring's first album were installed on the Galaxy S. SHW-A301S, a device released in 2013, includes Polaris, which was only included in the Samsung Galaxy released in 2011. For Samsung Master (SM-B510S/SL/K/LL), the color of the indicator icon has been changed to white , and some of the Galaxy S5 backgrounds are included. When setting the standby screen of the Samsung master to the calendar, the clock font used the font presumed to be Roboto installed from Android 4.0 or higher. The Samsung Master Dual (SM-B520SL) has a changed indicator icon design, and overall it is similar to the version of TouchWiz Nature UX 3.0 included in the Galaxy Note 4 . Also, the indicator's clock font has been changed to Samsung Sans. In some models targeting the middle-aged, the clock font at the top has been changed to the clock font of the 1st generation Flash UI. However, Samsung Master Dual, as mentioned above, Samsung Sans[48] was changed to sound Since the magic hole phone , the basic button sound has been changed from bead to round. Even after that, the bead sound continued to exist, but it disappeared someday. However, it is said that there was a bead sound in Wise Phone . After that, the default button sound was changed from round to tick, then to peanut. However, there are some exceptions, such as the basic button sound of SHW-A280K being monochrome. In the case of the A130, which is called a como phone, the SK model does not have a beading sound and the tick is the basic button sound, but the KT model has a beading sound instead of a tick sound effect. However, in the SK model, if the theme is set to Theme 3 and the button sound is set to Tick, only the in-menu direction key buttons will sound beaded, and if set to Round, a peanut sound will be heard. Starting with mid-to-late devices equipped with Personal UX, there are differences in tones such as the music box folder sound, voice on-time notification sound, and Nate entry sound. This is due to the use of a Qualcomm sound chip instead of the existing Yamaha sound chip. For the same reason, when you play Rhythm Star, you will hear a somewhat different tone, which is called B tone phone. Ringtones of early devices follow the structure of White GUI except for Samsung Tune, which was used from Haptic to Galaxy S. W8350[49] , W8400 's folder/slide sounds are incorporated into Black GUI's sound effects (minimal piano, music box, glass beads). The W8400's Samsung Tune ringtone is an early version, not an arranged version built into other Personal UX models. For feature phones released in 2011, Samsung Tune has been changed to the booting sound of the Galaxy S II. Feature phones released through SK Telecom from 2013 have had their boot screen and boot sound changed. The folder operation sound has been deleted for Master Phone and S1 Safe Phone . The Samsung Master uses the booting sound of the existing S2, not the Galaxy S4 or S5. This is limited to SKT, and the U+ model does not have a boot sound function like the A300K. In the meantime, the A305D is equipped with the Galaxy S4's booting sound in addition to the S1's own booting sound.[50] SHW-A301S contains some of the Galaxy S4 wallpapers. In addition, in feature phones released after this model, the theme creation and theme selection functions disappeared, resulting in a unified theme. How it works and more From SM-B510 , the Anycall function has been changed to a product function. In most models, folder/slide operation sounds include cyber and space, in addition to the music box that was introduced from the black GUI. W570, W5700, which are early Personal UX devices, are made based on White GUI. When you enter the game, the White GUI window appears for a moment. Even when some devices enter the camera, the Black/White GUI's confirmation/warning sound comes out, and the low battery sound or call connection sound is used in the Black/White GUI.
