Hello all,
I am curious to know if it is possible to use the WLan indicator that is on the Blue Angel devices (on the menubar) for our Hymalaya devices. I have copied the WLanMgr.exe and WirelessMgr.exe to my device that I got from an external Blue Angel ROM on this forum but to no avail, the later only launches a program yet does nothing. Am I on the right track? I am looking for a WiFi Strength Indicator that I can put in my menubar or taskbar, 2.20CHS does not come with this and I am trying to find 3rd party apps to do just this - but nada.
Can anyone assist?
- Seasons greetings
I am replying to my own post, this is sad...
Either there is no interest in the community to have the Blue Angel WiFi indicator for their Himalaya devices or no one knows how to do this, either way there is no response as of yet...
- Happy NY to all

Mmmm - just noticed this one...
My little square G for GPRS symbol no longer STAYS on the status bar at the top.
It appears as I soft reset, and find a network, but then disapears.
If I click my signal bar gauge however, the G symbol is shown there.
I know they have changed the Signal Status notification box to list Airline mode now, instead of Wireless off...
So is this another new change, or are the rest of you getting the G to stay on?
I ask, because I actually use my XDA2 on Orange UK, unlocked, but before the Upgrade last night, I still got a solid G stay on with Orange.
Thoughts or comments anyone?
I've actually never seen the "G" stay on the bar with mine, and have been thru several different roms, Qtek, I-mate, T-mobile.
It does exactly as you describe. Personally I don't need to see it all the time.
me too, ever since it never stayed on just popped up to indicate that you've connected to gprs but goes away after a while (started with a 1.52.00 rom)
Same goes for me. I always see the G appear at a start up but never have had the G remain on the screen for more than a few seconds.
On my unit after the Aisa update I can confirm the change in wording to "Turn on flight mode" from "Turn wireless off"

Aha...
I guess I have already sussed it, but can you guys confirm what type of devices and ROM's you had/have.
As i am certain as can be that my XDA2 USED to keep the G symbol on permanent, just like my SmartPhone Orange E200 does now.
But now, after the new UK ROM update, it doesn't stay on.
Now that I know this is by design, and that the initial appearance is to assure you you have a GPRS signal, and that you can check it any time by tapping on the signla bar, I have to say i much prefer this new method of informing you.
I just wanted to check it wasn't an error first - but I can happily send and receive MMS so it must be working fine.
my xda1 with 2002(org rom) dident keep the icon
my xda1 with 2003 dident keep the icon
and my
xda2 (qtek2020)(org rom) dont keep the icon
I've had this problem for some time now and I have no words to describe this symptom ... I know I'm not alone as I know a few other people have the same problem:
The signal bar on Xda II shows ok, green LED still flashes like normal, even my Phone Dashboard showed that I'm connected to my mobile operator with signal strength >90% ... Nothing is suspicious until you start making calls, everything stays at "Dialing ..." and there will be no dialing tone !!! Make another call, same ...
Then you'll use the landline to call yourself on the mobile, it goes to the voice message ... All those time, you were actually not connected to the mobile network! When you realise this, the only remedy is to turn on and off Wireless / Flight Mode.
Now, have you had similar experience ?
I think, somehow the mobile network lost you, and Xda II didn't even notice it therefore did not bother to reconnect as it thought it was still connected. Is this it ? Or anyone has any other theory or solution to this irritating problem ~ which I genuinely have no idea who to blame ?
i think i know what the problem is
:idea: try to download and install this software,
http://www.gb-soft.cz/xdaii/product_gprs_tweak_en.htm
and in "gprs settings", disable "gprs always online", and set it to "search gprs on start gprs connection".
that way, you will be connected to your operator as simple gsm phone, not a gprs one.
the mobility managment in this status (imsi attached, instead of combined attached) is more simple to the network, and you won't lose service.
Hope it will solve your problem,
please update...

thanks i have downloaded it and installed, and set the "GPRS always on" to false, but the other one was default ticked ("Search GPRS on start GPRS conn").
i will start my observation today and see if the problem reproduce itself.

did this solve it for you?
Coming into the 8th day with this Tweak installed, with GPRS set to search on GPRS start (not radio start). So far, the network problem has not occured. I would like to give it another 2 to 3 weeks before announcing the problem solved.
However, just one little note, after installing the Tweak ... a day or two I noticed that the BT Icon no longer shows on the main screen task bar even after numerous soft reset. Not sure what causes it.
hey guys, i cooked my own rom with Pandora 5.0 Beta 1, and since then the network indicator icon is stuck on U, even though (as in the pic) the network is clearly EDGE. anyone know how to fix it? or at least what i should be looking for?
bump- cuz i still can't figure this out
Has anybody developed one? I know that the Wifi Companion had one which sweetly placed it on the top tool bar, but it's incompatible with my Touch/WM6.1. I'd really love one, anybody?

First post, bit of a lurker here. Just upgraded my XDA2 after (how long?).
So, got the touch HD. And I find it has a [E] or an [H] on the taskbar. I've checked previous posts, and the GPRS is disabled, but I really really dislike the icon being there. The XDA2 didn't have it there, although it also supported GPRS. Is there a reg hack, or a tweak, something I can do to hide the icon? I don't care about the connection, its the icon that's bugging me....?
Or is it that I'm asking the wrong question? Is it the case that if I can see the [G] icon, I must be connected to gprs, and so to hide the icon I just need to kill that connection (something i thought I'd already done)?
The G/E/H/3G icon just shows you what is available, doesn't mean you're connected.
It is possible, i had a taskbar on the diamond, called ahen by sunnyin that had no G/3G/H icon
Not 100% sure on this one, but I don't think you can actually get rid of the icon as that is a WM feature to show you what is available (if you're connected to GPRS/EDGE it will show it on the signal bars). However, what you can do is change the icon which 'G' and 'E' to just be black like the background so you won't be able to see it. Hence the actual icon notification will still be there (taking up space) but you won't see it.
I have the same problem. disabled GPRS and any way of my phone accessing 3G or 2G, but there is still an E in a gray square showing up at the top. This happened after I first installed cooked roms. My guess is that other apps are attempting to access 2G, because another problem linked to this was an error message, ""there is a problem connecting to the gprs service in your registered home network warning", which I've since then fixed (but the E problem remains)
Edit: lol I just realized this thread was years old. but if anybody has a solution, please comment
