  1. I WANT TO SAY AGAIN THAT I ABSOLUTELY DESERVE YOUR PRESENT WORK! GREAT JOB.
  2. Regarding WARMTH: As far as I can see, the set power (watts) for the DNA chipset ALWAYS represents the maximum output power - regardless of whether in TC or REPLAY mode (boost and preheat are a separate topic). For example, if you're using an RDA and storing a puff on relatively dry cotton, the performance on newly wetted cotton won't be enough to achieve the same result. With "Warmth" you have the possibility to provide more power. However, since this has sometimes led to VERY bad results (for me), I have been allowing a correction of the (maximum) power in my themes for some time, even after saving.
  3. first of all: my english is exclusively due to the google translator... I am very pleased that you took my criticism to heart and delved very deeply, looking for the basics for a long time. My statements about the competition between the two systems were based on memories of a past discussion, which I unfortunately couldn't find anymore. Because of this, I have now again carried out tests and graphical evaluations. Contrary to the earlier discussion, I have to concede today that the two control systems do NOT seem to compete, but that REPLAY clearly dominates, lying above temperature control. As can be seen from the second graphic, it makes no sense to change the target temperature when replay is activated - which you have also prevented in your theme (as far as I understood your description correctly)
  4. V1.0.3 - Replaying with Temp Control: If I have a working temperature control - why should I use REPLAY? (Apart from the fact that I activated two competing control techniques in this constellation)
    Very complex and very detailed graphics for everyone who would like to have it bright and colorful. No gimmicks with background images, all legible - good work.
  5. "just trying it out more to come" => Make sure that the background does not affect the readability of the screens. Place the logo on the main screen differently, or darken it so that there is a clear contrast to the screen content.
  6. One more thing, since you're already dealing with Escribe: As long as you are not sure how the DNA chipset works, please avoid custom themes, which allow the material to be changed directly within the theme on the mod (not to be confused with changing the profile). With some, the clean separation of the material-specific settings is not clear enough, so that you can catch problems and possibly think of malfunctions in the DNA chipset. It is best to stay with the standard theme until you have mastered how it works. Later, the beautiful wide world of custom themes will be available to you.
  7. Hi - as has already been written: Limiting the puff time is the absolutely wrong way to prevent the cotton from burning. Think of this function more as a safety feature in case of unintentional actuation (e.g. in your pocket). Set the power to match the coil and your puff behavior. Or use a temp-sensing wire and TC mode or Replay. Then these problems will be a thing of the past.
    2 weeks ago I didn't want to write any criticism and only praised the porting to the landscape format. In the meantime there is so much personal contribution in design and function that I HAVE to rate the theme - 5 stars, no question. I have to acknowledge that themes don't have to be foolproof at all costs and there are also theme developments that require some personal responsibility from the user (combined Replay / TC) - although I also have to say that I based this rating on the description (and my poor knowledge of English) because I don't have the time for a deeper analysis at the moment.
  8. Response from the author: Thanks for checking it out. I've heavily edited the menu. I kept the same layout style & a similar look to the icons but all spacing, font size, every icon & every bar is reworked. It looks similar but it is not. For example non selected bars may be black rather than maroon or vice versa. They may be longer or thinner, etc. That's just the tip of the iceberg. It took re-sizing & re-colors even if it's not immediately apparent. Also, under the profile setting you can change the material to Watts on any profile to not get a false positive. Replay or TC is definitely not broken. I purposely set some profiles to a temp-sensing metal to get people to fool w/ Replay on this. It can be set to Watts within the theme in the profile menu or via the profile shortcut on the main screen. I've been playing w/ several different coil builds the last 2 days & testing Replay reliability when mixing wire types. I understand (I think) your saying you don't want material changing options without the profile changing them or any way to get TC or Replay to engage without the chip doing it. That's up to Evolve. I personally find said control safer than allowing the chip to decide alone. Especially when building coils that are using 2-3 different metal types. The chip never knows what they are. In my humble opinion it's a useful setting. I've gotten some reliable TC out of some combos that I wouldn't have without this option. I realize I could delete the control but I personally use it. While most people don't use TC at all I feel that if someone is going to go through the hassle of downloading themes they will probably have a grasp on TC & can navigate it accordingly. I think Evolve would strike the option if they found issue. That's just my stance. I don't take offense to the review at all. It will hamper the theme from being seen in the future as users like myself will sort by highest rated but themes rarely get reviewed at all so so be it. It's fair given that I've used the Material-ish style of menu. Just understand the amount of work to get it where its viewable to my satisfaction has taken enough time to where I could've built an entirely new menu. I didn't want to do that as I've used a variant of it for 5 or more years. It's just what I'm used to & proficient with. Again, it had to be re-worked quite extensively. Even colors in all states are very viewable. That's rare on here in my experience. It's at a point where it could easily be my own menu if I changed a font style or a few icons but it works for me. The original design was special imo. The 3 bottom shortcuts always made sense & are easy to see outdoors. That said even those are reworked to look perfect when highlighted & not just in a color. Notice the border. No need to reinvent the wheel. I have similar experiences when using the default theme variants. I'm not a fan of someone slapping on a wallpaper & saying it's new. I have toyed with the idea of building a color changing version based off the default theme or a souped up version of the default as a starting base. It's allot of work though & I'm less familiar with it's functionality. It took allot of crunching to get this version within the chip's tiny memory constraints. I will agree with you in that I liked the color toggles vs a sub-menu but I've added so many colors it's no longer feasible. On all mods/all chips I've always been a fan of color options which is why this theme exsists & is what it is. It's a worthy trade off for me. As I lean towards graphic design & beauty in my work vs. programming skills. If a theme is programmed great but a field isn't clear when highlighted or selected I'm not going to use it. Thanks for the review. => Thank you for the feedback - so I can reiterate that I am aware of the time invested and would like to expressly reward it. Back to the material selection within the theme, which is why I see this critically (even if I also allow this with my themes!): What happens when the mod is in TC mode and the user switches to a non-temp sensing material? With some popular themes, the option to switch off the temperature control afterwards automatically disappears. A weak point in the Escribe software is that no individual conditions can be created for the selection of the individual materials. The choice can only be generally permitted or not. Unfortunately, it is not possible to distinguish "if temp-protect, then only temp-sensing material". But this discussion now goes far beyond a theme evaluation and so I would like to emphasize again that I did not miss your work, your changes to the original theme. For this part: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (if I sometimes express myself misleadingly - I'm "somewhat" unsure in English and translate everything with Google)
    An interesting approach - even though I'm not a fan of defining the "main screen" multiple times within a theme. In the previous themes, I found it a bit more elegant to select the color directly without going through an additional screen. I deduct one star because the basics of the theme are taken from an existing theme, which offers scope for incorrect settings (material change without control of the operating mode, so the TC mode remains active with non-temp-sensing material) - this one However, the problem affects ALL themes that allow changing the material within a profile.It is up to us to point out incorrect, impermissible settings within our themes. I hope you're not too disappointed with my 4-star rating, but I'm really not a fan of 5-or-none ratings - a thumbs-up/thumbs-down would also suffice. With all the rubbish, I've actually given up on writing anything at all, with a few exceptions - in both directions 😉 and I like the enthusiasm with which you continue to pursue your idea 👍🏻
  9. 🧐 - I can hardly imagine - it seems to me more like one of the many themes that only clutter up the forum...
  10. I don't see a landscape theme here, but a halved portrait theme, both parts side-by-side. I am firmly convinced that you can do better. The landscape format gives you plenty of scope for new ways to create your own and stand out from the crowd. Accept the challenge.
    Ein Stern, weil weniger geht nicht. Okay, jedem das seine, aber für Silicon im Briefmarkenformat muss Mann schon ganz schön fertig sein - ungeachtet irgendwelcher political correctness... Abgesehen davon kein Mehrwert, die für die Bedienung relevanten Informationen sind kaum zu erkennen. Wieder ein Griff in die Kloschüssel mit einem "tollem" Wallpaper unter Missachtung jeglicher Nutzbarkeit. Es tut mir leid (nein, eigentlich nicht), aber mich nerven diese ewigen Wallpaper-Themes schon lange, wo jegliche Grundlagen einer Usability ausser acht gelassen werden, kein Mehrwert für den User - Hauptsache, was veröffentlicht. Fehlt jetzt eigentlich nur noch ein big dick oder giant pussy lips... - Wobei, dafür ist dann vielleicht doch das Display zu klein.
  11. It's not an easy task to create a landscape theme - you're too used to portrait mode over the years. It is now all the more difficult to transfer an existing portrait theme to landscape. You've opted for a side-by-side arrangement of the controls here and you've done a really good job. However, I found your screen layout in the Vape-Droid-Theme to be more creative. The chart display on the puff info screen should perhaps be stretched across the entire width to better display the details. I don't want to make an evaluative criticism, because I would also have to include the technical substructure and there I (for me and personally) no longer conform with some properties of the original theme - which neither devalues your work nor the work of Citrael target! SirTimmyTimbit has created a graphically outstanding base, there is no question about that either.

  13. Yes, I know - the mod is called that, but as before, there is no DNA 400C chipset. It's a 250C. Otherwise, especially with a mod for 4 cells, it would be very, very informative to read out the 4 cells separately.
  14. Ein frohes Weihnachtsfest wünsche ich Allen 🎄 Eigentlich hatte ich vorgenommen, mich nicht mehr zu anderen Themes zu äußern... Aber hier sind, denke ich, einige Worte angebracht. Dein Theme ist ganz im Sinne des Forums: Einige User wechseln ein Wallpaper, einmal/zweimal/x-mal und müllen das Forum damit zu. Einige User erstellen Themes von Grund auf neu, beginnend bei Null. Die meisten User hingegen wählen ein Theme ihrer Wahl und beginnen dies zu modifizieren - manchmal verstehen diese User nicht einmal, wie das Ursprungstheme funktioniert... Jetzt zu Deinem Theme. Du hast Dir offensichtlich viele Themes angeschaut, heruntergeladen und ausprobiert. Schließlich hast Du Dir aus all diesen Themes die für Dich sinnvollsten Elemente herausgesucht und zu einem neuen Theme komponiert. Das ist prima! Bedeutend hervorheben möchte ich allerdings, dass Du nicht einfach "blind" kopiert hast, sondern die Elemente verstanden und an Dein Theme angepasst hast. Vielleicht ist das der erste Schritt zu einem Theme komplett in Eigenregie? Ich wäre gespannt auf das Ergebnis. Einziger Kritikpunkt: Wenn Du das Theme explizit dem Hyperion / 100C widmest, sollte sich der Battery-Screen mit bis zu 4 Zellen eigentlich verbieten - der Hyperion hat nur 1 Zelle und der 100C wäre auch gar nicht in der Lage, mehrere Zellen getrennt auszuwerten. Hier könntest Du über eine Abfrage der Zellenanzahl (Cell Count >1 = true) das "DNA 100C"-Label gegen ein "DNA 250C"-Label wechseln und das Hyperion-Logo z.B. gegen das universelle Evolv-Logo.... PS: Es würde sich vielleicht lohnen, einige Besonderheiten in der Beschreibung zu erwähnen 😉 (Akkuwarnung, Warnung bei falschen Einstellungen) LG Carsten
  15. If everything works now and you are satisfied, then everything is actually fine. Without wanting to confuse you now (and therefore my question was about the theme) - if you are actually in preheat mode, the factory setting should take place as temperature and not as punch (I don't know that exactly anymore ...). As a punch, however, there is no problem either, as the chipset dynamically adapts the punch to the target temperature in preheat mode; Punch 11 is ALWAYS slightly below the target temperature. (We're specifically talking about TC mode here). Theoretically, an "overshoot" can only occur due to a preheat output that is often too high, i.e. the maximum temperature is immediately overwritten before the chipset can regulate - which has not happened to me so far, because the time window of the preheat is much too short (okay, As an MTL steamer, I have never entered absurdly high numbers ...). Personally, I only "know" the Temp-Protect message in connection with the annealing of the coil, if I have already selected the material but have not yet activated the TC mode. As soon as a temperature-sensitive material is selected, the chipset switches off with the error message "Temp Protect" - regardless of the explicit activation of the TC mode. So: Always anneal with the material "Watt". (I hope it was reasonably understandable - everything is translated from German with Google)
  16. Hi, First of all, welcome here. If I understand correctly, this is your first DNA mod and you have already used Escribe to make a change, have uploaded different material. Have you copied all (!) Settings from the 316SS-factory-profile? Have you changed other things on the mod, e.g. B. the theme? If you have changed the theme: before or after creating your "new" SS304 profile and which theme?
  17. Since I am currently very present with many themes in a row in the list, I take this post a bit personally and would like to comment on it as follows: - For the selection of the wallpaper, I am pulling the individual themes together into one post, although the interventions in the theme goes deeper than "just" exchanging the background. - It seems like it is "just" a different logo, but the average user is probably not able to exchange these logos in my themes without getting a non-functional result afterwards.
