Does anybody know of a simple camera timer that I can install on my Xda2? I've searched around but not really come up with anything...
Thanks in advance
Here is one.
Unzip the attached file and copy cameratimer.exe to \Windows\Start Menu\Programs on your XDAII.
Cheers
Jamie
Just wanted to check now some people have downloaded it, is it working ok?
I have hard coded the camera app to \Windows\Camera.exe but wasn't sure if the windows directory has a different name in other countries.
Cheers
Jamie
Works nicely for me. T-Mobile ROM 1.60. Also works for video if you have the camera set to that mode. Cool.
Thanks, a neat little utility.
Excellent! Works like a charm, many thanks!
i actually posted this topic a while back; asking if there was indeed a camera timer app. nice to see that there IS one! cheers
compatibility
does this work with other pocket pcs that can take photos?
I doubt it will work on non Himalaya based devices. Unless they use the same IA camera app and it must be located in \Windows\Camera.exe
Jamie
excellent little utility Thanks
now all we need is a custom-built tripod...
Jamie,
Thanks a lot for the nifty little application. If you have sometime on your hands can you consider adding a commandline parameter option? I would love to be able to call your application with a call like
CameraTimer /t5 /Quiet
and get it to do its magic quietly. The /Quiet parameter would mean it would exit the Camera application after taking the picture. Can this be done?
Thanks in advance. Best Regards
Ok, a new version. This one will run as the old one or you can put a number on the command line which will cause it to run in "Quiet" mode.
eg "Camera.exe 10"
Jamie
Sorry didn't read that last post properly.
You can now add a "q" to make it exit the camera app after taking a picture eg:-
"CameraTimer.exe" will run with UI
"CameraTimer.exe 10" will run without UI
"CameraTimer.exe 10 q" will run without UI and exit the camera app after it's done.
Jamie
Simple is great! Thanx!
Jamie,
This is amazing!!! Thanks for responding so fast! Most appreciated.
Best Regards
Thanks... and more!
Hello and thanks for this great little program!
Since you've been very responsive to previous suggestions and you may still have all the development environment configured for this little tool, I thought I would try to request new features too! Here are my ideas:
- Display a static text field in the program dialog box that shows your name, the program version and a summary of the command line options. This should bring you the fame you deserve for writing this tool... and also help people to remember how to use the "unattended" mode!
- add an option (both GUI and command line) to loop <X> number of times (or maybe until closed?) sleeping for the <delay> seconds and taking a new picture. This would make the program great for a sort of continuous picture log, where it could be used to take shots every <delay> seconds for the whole day. I could also be useful if you are alone and trying to take your own picture: set the device to repeatedly take one shot a second, start this and just calmly walk over, try different poses, lure unsuspecting strangers into the frame, whatever... You can later simply keep only the good shots.
Just some ideas, I hope you won't mind people being so demanding!
;-)
The time delay and extended photo shoot option is certainly a good idea but then I guess you will need to take the cradle with you to support the unit while it takes the shots.
I've now added the loop option and fixed a couple of bugs.
You can download the latest version at http://www.coderz.co.uk/cameratimer.html
@lostgweilo, sorry only the UI version supports looping

Hi everyone,
I wanted to share something back with the community, so here's a new "skin" for JPLDialer_VistaII by JPL4.
I've created images to overwrite the default images in the JPLDialer_VistaII installation to get a working version of my mock-up below. I'm doing it this way since I don't know of another way to do it, but I'm all ears if there is a better way?
NOW COMPLETE: See below for link to files.
Best Regards,
d38

i like it.... very very nice and clean looking
Really like the JPLDialer_VistaII on PaulyA.com, but I wasn't thrilled about the grass image as it didn't fit right with the PocketCM contacts list I like so much, so, I designed a graphic "skin" to overwrite all of the graphics installed with JPLDialer_VistaII. Pauly A did all the work on the dialer, this is just cosmetic. All of the graphics are included.
1.) First install the "JPLDialer_VistaII by JPL4": http://www.paulya.com/dialerskins.htm
2.) Send the zip file below to your phone and unzip all of the images into your Windows directory (overwriting the files already there, I've named then the same). (Alternate to browse to the Windows directory on your phone when connected to your pc and overwrite the images that way instead).
3.) Do a soft reset. Ready to roll!
I hope you like it.

that is really nice, great work man, i use http://www.paulya.com/dialerskins.htm this website every now and then to get skins from plus they are all free.....
I hope Paulya doesn't mind but I put the bitmaps together into a new JPLDialer cab to make the install easier. The dialer and the bitmaps are excellent.
EDIT: Couldn't attach so I linked it.
JPL Touch Dialer
nice i like that a lot more than the grass, thanks.
redial issue
if i open up the dial pad, and a number is at the top, if i hit the talk button or the hard button to dial from the phone, the phone will not dial the number. I am forced to hit call history then press dial from that menu. Any idea how to fix this issue. I am using a Mogul. Any help would be great
The redial and 911 functions do not work with this dialer. Can someone double check this? I am using a Sprint Mogul.
As in I can't dial 911??? Some one really should look into that.
P.S. Love the look of this dialer. But I suppose 911 should be an option!
Yeah, when you dial 911, the dialer freezes...which is kind of a really bad thing!!
Been a while since I've been able to check back here.
No 9-11 dialing? What? I just tried it on my 8525 (Windows Mobile 5) and it went right through. Not sure why it wouldn't work for you? I know this dialer doesn't use the smart dialer, but I didn't like that in the first place, I doubt that would be the issue for you?
R0N1N, VERY cool, thanks for doing that! I would like to know how that works... Any chance you could share a quick how to? Or a link for more info? Thanks regardless!
I'm going to make a new variation on this one, more of a black based theme, less blue this time. After using this for a while, I've noticed that I would rather see more variation in the button on / off states, especially outside on a sunny day. I'll post it here when it's complete!
Thanks for the feedback! As far as I'm concerned, all props go to PaulyA, but I do appreciate it!
love this skin TY!
UPDATE:
No, this projects not dead, just been extremely busy with work.
All menu items will be configurable!
Links and images will be uploaded shortly.
A flash file made from LG prada screenshots.
The clock moves and most of the menu works. i Havent completed it yet, and there are not animations yet, please try it out and tell me what you think, some of the links may not work on your phone as i may have different file names, if you do i will be more than happy to change. so just test on your phone and see what works and what doesnt.
UPDATE:
New startup screen
contacts now had pocketcm and icontact as a option
IMAGES :
LINK : http://www.mediafire.com/?50dy57fnnt1
Please note, put the Prada folder in your root file, and link startup.swf to a button, or put in your startup folder.
Please give feedback.
Its a fun little toy but isn't really useful at the moment. Can't do a single thing with anything that uses a dial pad on screen and none of the ok buttons work for me.
yeah its just a concept, but would people actually use this if i had to develop it more, with the new flash just around the corner nothing would be impossible, but i want to know if people would use it, that is its basic purpose if people do like it i will further it and make it able to send sms, and make calls etc...
i'd use it
thank you
it s beautifull, thank you good job
Keep on going
Nice "flash lite" programme.
Is anything configurable?
Only 1.2% CPU Usage, the cube from ByKa takes up to 70% of CPU Usage and drains the battery.
Continue the good work
Prada Interface
Can,t wait to see the fnal product. I like the dark theme you have going for it. If I were you I would give it a flash and style animatable icons and movable icons. I see where you are going though...

Not sure if I'd use it much (iPhone gui makes things way to easy to access ) but I would use it to show it off. Seems simple enough for others to fully rely on fully and is graphically pleasing.
if it will work with a magician, i would use it! love the simple graphics...
Oh yes, if it really worked I would use it. It looks great, much better than iPhone wannabe skins. I have to admit I do currently use an iPhone skin because it's simply usefull. I like the Prada style much better though.
a counter for missed calls and sms would be cool! the first screen reminds me at this:

very nice work...keep it up
this program kicks ass. so much more of an experience rather than just a skinned launcher. keep it up. *subscribed*
ok so i have started developing more. If youve tried it you would of noticed that the signal bar and the battery meter show your phones status, ive done the calculator, the dial pad and almost finished the send messeage and mms. You can either use the given on screen keyboard or your own, will keep you guys updated. Thanks for the support
wow, sleek'n sexy(i mean screens on 1st page)...
joshuawittstock,
the interface looks great. is there a way we can change the destination of the menu items . . . such as, contacts opens icontact or pocketcm.
ok , well almost done i linked menu's to different apps, for e.g when you open phone book it will show you a menu asking whether you would like to use icontact, pocket cm etc... are there any special "requests"? ( things that you would like to see in this project? ) im also planning todo a rss reader. thanks
hm... it should work with wm2003... what about a button for backlight? or some space for a weather plugin on the today screen?
can´t wait to try it!
dial pad
are you going to create a flash dial pad or are you going to link it to cprog? i can't wait for the final product.
extraducksauce, i am going to create a dialpad in flash identical to the one found on the LG prada. im also going to be release 'test' models to see how it works on everyones phone, i would like somebody with wm 2003 please try the first link out and tell me if it works... im having a bit of a problem with the writing a message. so i wont release that just yet.
hy there,
http://youtube.com/watch?v=dO_OWpp8vT8&feature=related
is it possible to make it work on wm5?
possible - yes
Whats the point of this application?
That's actually a pretty cool idea.
Wonder if something could be made where you wave the phone in the air and a message is displayed like you had on that Nokia phone or those message clocks.
the point is that if you are in a place where is too much noise (disco) or no possibility to hear one another (train station, two different cars etc), you can transmit messages very easy. the display of a pda is wide enough to be observed at long distance. a flash lite program for this app would be excelent.
Great idea for WM application! "Programable" (text and color) led banner. For me very usefull (on lesson) and cool looks...
Seems to me like a big waste, that's why it's avail on the i****e, nothing much more it's good for, except a LED Banner. If anything, a today plugin with this would be cool.
I only know a piece of software that creates LED gif animation. Like this:

I would think it's not that difficult to program for WM. You just need to make font template or pixel matrix (the latter should save memory since each character is like 16x12LED = 16x12x2 bits) for a-z 0-9 A-Z .,'... then scale it up to screen size and let it scroll. Just that it may be hard for the more serious programmers to justify spending their time on this.
maybe a less serious programmer will do it, after all
How about creating the program to create LED gif images on the devices, to be used as backgrounds for S2U2.
Easiest way is to use flash
I can`t believe no one wants to make this up...half an hour for any decent programmer. wtf

LED Pov(persistance of Vision)
THIS would be much cooler.. someone should really do something of this..
its easy to make..
using a pixel font blink in a certain frequency waving your arm, due to persistance of view) we see the message writen in the air...

Well it's not that hard. Flash -> download a tutorialfile from the internet on how to make it. Adjust it to your wishes, save as flash 7 or flash lite 2.1.
But why won't you do it, when you want it?
If it's an easy way to program it, this would be an excellent first project for you to jump into.
Good luck!
it will be more nicer if its not flash program..well maybe likje .exe file

It only takes 1 click to open a flash file. It's fullscreen and you can make lnk files to it.
Flash is a programminglanguage, much like any other language. It has it's disadvantages, but when it comes to animation and graphics, like what is requested in this thread, it's superb! Easy antialiasing of all objects. Smooth animation.
It's possible to make an exe file run flash animations, but then you need some other programming languages to work it out, or you can use mortscript and make an .exe

EDIT: UNDER DEVELOPEMENT AND WILL BE RELEASED WHEN READY! KEEP AN EYE ON THIS THREAD!!!!
Here's an idea... when you turn your phone off, it locks... when you turn it on, you must roll your thumb/finger to the right around the wheel of the diamond to unlock it...
as you wheel around, the white line around the circle begins to fill from the top, moving rightward around...
sorry for the poor image quality, i just threw it together as a thought.
I hope a developer can throw this together, prolly isn't hard at all and would really be cool for the diamond. Better graphics and glowing line ofcourse.
its simple and utilizes the unique hardware of the diamond, and also the pro.

anyone like?
anyone down to try and create it?
Wish i could, but i have no idea where to start. i'm in the dark here.
to clear up any confusion that may come up, the lights on the wheel itself don't need to light up as you wheel around... only the circle on the screen.
as you would pass a point on the wheel, another section of the ring on the screen would fill in.
Sounds like a good idea. Hope someone have the time to make it.
im sure that 'wheel-2-unlock' is one of the features of the TouchXperience ROM but it would take a long time for this rom to be released i guess.
TouchXperience is a ROM? Not just a cab installation?
http://www.touchxperience.com/en/touchxperience.html
I really want this app....I miss many calls...
sounds good, i hope someone can do it
Ok guys, i got a good man to try and put this together... he's farther along than he thought and will be releasing something when he feels its ready to meet the world!
Sounds like a good idea - I posted something very like it in the AnswerKeys Disabler thread a few weeks ago!
Glad someone has the skills to make it happen!

I'm not the primary developer cuz i don't know how to do so yet, but my boy on another forum is the one working on it... lets see what he comes up with.
i'll run it by him if he wants to talk to that R2U dev
hello
what about first version.
Im waiting forward.

CapacitiveFingerLock
I am working on such an idea already for a week or so:
CapacitiveFingerLock.
It will have another locking/unlocking mechanism on top of StylusLock, as described in this post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2681112&postcount=62
Because I am now on a business trip in America, I had not much time to work on the program. But I haven proven already that it works. I have to remove some stuff from the proven program, and integrate it with my already existing StylusLock. The goal is that it does NOT cost extra battery power and CPU and is really simple to use.
The reason to add this, is to have it possible to lock and unlock "one handed". The StylusLock approach cannot be done "one handed", e.g. on a bike. Also some people do not like to operate with the StylusLock. The combination with this new CapacitiveFingerLock and existing StylusLock will suit more people. And sometimes people will use the Stylus, so they will get the right behaviour depended on the usage.
Good idea, as I do not use any locks or such applications, but this one sounds nice. Just remember that this app should not conflict with, or somehow overcover and incomming call

Woohoo, I've been asking for such a thing for weeks now. Do you have a working version already?
That would be awesome.
Definitely MUCH MUCH better than SensorLock and all the - no need to mention - rest!
Especially because SensorLock is still buggy as hell!

Hello
I wanted to start graphical programming for a next project i will start so i played a little bit and created a simple and easy scroll program.
I should run nicecly on every .net device.
I have just commented the code for you to make it understandable for newbes who want to start programming in .net with graphics.
maybe i will add a flow feature later.
If you use the code please PM me, then you are allowed to use my code however you want.
So I will call it "PM-me license" ^^
and it would be nice for what you used it
if you have ideas i could add post it here
and please PUSH UP THIS THREAD xD
[Update]
If have made some litte bugfixes, speed improvments and i have added a fps counter.
At my Kaiser it runs without touch at 20FPS when I touch my Screen then only 9
And It Costs 3 FPS when you have selected an item. Any Idea of speed it up?
Which device you got and how fast it runs?
IF someone has ideas to improve the speed please PM me!
[Update]
Simple Flow added, just flowing without breaking or something, maybe i will improve it later on...
would be just add v=a*t + v0 till zero or change of algebraic sign.
[Idea]
http://msdn.microsoft.com/de-de/library/5ey6h79d(VS.80).aspx
LockBits do make it fast, I will take a look later
[Update]
Better flow, icons get read from img dir dynamicly just copy some img files there and take a look. There will be a messagebox with the time needed for loading them. If the pictures are in 32x32 already it needs around 2secs on a Kaiser for 42 images. If there are much bigger it takes 14secs (They get resized).
[Update] You can now run the program under WinXP just run the ScrollerDemo .exe in the MissingSchoolBellDir. Icons are loaded from the img dir
Download:
http://www.scilor.com/scrollingdemo.html
*bump* ...
Please add a flow feature. This is a great idea. developers helping developers. Thank you!
Update -> Some fixes, speed improvment and a fps counter
@computerjunkie Flow feature comes later iam sorry
Flow feature added, but beware very simple I would call that alpha
Added a better flow and loading of image out of the img dir for the icons
It runs now under XP, if you have a tablet pc it is really nice
a compiled.exe is in the MissingSchoolBell dir
