In use:
Dual functionality:
Ok, this is still beta, but works fine on my system.
it's an extension of the ToggleToday idea, so before getting excited, go and have a read of that (although, look at the pictures first to see if you like what you see). They are not the same program, although they work nicely, and indeed best with each other.
Theory: I don't like all the junk on my today screen, so ToggleToday, my previous program, removed the menu bar from the bottom of the screen.
The new program, ToggleStart, carries this theme futher.
The start bar, ie the bar at the top of the screen on your PPC, carries a number of functions that are useful in phoneedition, ie Signal strength, GPRS status (the G we all hate) and clock and volume.
However, after ToggleToday, there was some discussion about extending the Today screen to be even more useful; hence, ToggleStart, which does just that: it toggles display of the bar at the top of the screen.
Now, this would usually be useless, and is certainly not necessary if you use somethink like WISBar. But read on:
What if we hide the Startbar, but show something more useful instead - we're going to show the Today screen. So, clicking on ToggleStart will hide the bar and show through your Today screen at the top of every window. This, again, would normally be useless.
But, look at the example PhoneAlarm skin I've used and supplied.
This is configured to mimic much of the normal Start Bar functionality, but to be more useful. You aren't restricted to using my phone alarm skin, and if you've got a more important Today screen plugin to show, stick it at the top of your Today Plugins and it'll show through. But Phonealarm for me:
So, what happens:
Your StartBar actually shrinks to 2 pixels high. So the very top 2 pixels of your screen are the start bar, and work in the same way as normal. this is important, because you won't be able to see the OK/Close button and the volume buttons etc any more. But, if you know where they are, click just above them, at the top of the screen, and you'll click them.
This is IMPORTANT - remember, to click ok/close, click just above the Signal strength indicator (ie, where the normal OK button would be, but just above it, right at the top of the screen).
This is true for all of the normal start bar functionality. It's all there, but right at the top of the screen. This takes a bit of getting used to, but works. Also, this means that you've got twice the functionality - clicking on volume on my phonealarm skin will set phonealarm profiles, but just above it will set volume etc.
This is a toggle. Click once, the magic happens. Click once again, it unhappens and everything's back to normal. It won't eat your machine or anything, but worst case, SOFT reset. Don't put it in your startup folder unless you can rescue yourself. I don't use it like this, but you might want to.
Anyway, I recommend this:
-Install phonealarm and put it at the top of your today plugins. Ensure it works.
-Unzip my PhoneAlarm skin to your \Programfiles\phonealarm directory.
-Go to phone alarm and enable my skin VJTinyToday_min.skn
Ensure it works (note - clicking on the left few pixels on my skin will enable configuration. Clicking on the OS X icon will toggle to message display (this has some bugs due to phonealarm, not me). NOTE the phone alarm skin is beta - I'm not sure if the battery and signal strength are perfect yet, I did it at 4am, but I think it works. Feedback welcome.
-Optionally (and recommended) use ToggleToday. Use this BEFORE ToggleStart if you're going to use it, otherwise your screen will go funny.
-Click on ToggleStart. Hopefully now, you should be able to use my phonealarm skin all the time. Hope it's useful.
-You may need to refresh your screen - go to another app, and then back to Today Screen to see the finished product.
It's easy to recolour the skin. I'm enclosing my CETuner color theme, but basically the blue colour is RGB 207,147,247. Recolour in paint or anything!
It's a beta version - I'm going to join this to ToggleToday to do both in one, or either/or, as desired.
I don't know if anyone finds this useful. i don't know if I do yet! But give it a go and feedback! SCREENSHOTS please.

CAB
EXE
PhoneAlarm Skin (note, this only has icons for Home, Work, Meeting (rename it to silent in phonealarm profiles) and Flight. Feel free to make more if you need them) Clicking on the very left edge of phonealarm will bring up the config dialog. Clicking on the OSX icon will switch to message info view (if you've received text message, it'll show you the text of it etc).
CETuner Scheme
:!: Note: read the warnings on ToggleToday on the other thread if you haven't already. Basically, don't put it in your startup folder - wait for your PDA to load up and finish, go to the Today screen, and then run it.
:!: Note 2: ToggleToday doesn't work with WinMobile 2005, and neither program works in VGA. Don't say I didn't warn you. I'll work on this at some point.
- remember, ToggleToday BEFORE ToggleStart, and OK button is still in the normal place, just right at the top of the screen (above signal strength).

RE
Hi vijay555,
Thanks
There is a problem though. I'm using MS voice command to activate both your programs.
When I activate the ToggleStart the top bar was hidden and my phonealarm bar moves to the top. Splendid as I've more scrfeen real estate! :lol:
When I activate the ToggleToday the bottom bar was hidden. Great! Now the problem comes in that the phonealarm bar moves downward and duplicates itself ie. I have now 2 phonealarm bar :roll:
In order to get back to original top bar I'll have to activate ToggleStart TWICE!
Can you solve this issue? I'm using O2 XDAII with WM2003se.
Thanks again.

RE
Hi vijay555,
Another problem.
If I'll to open a program how do I close it. Your last screenshot is a good example. Other program shows a 'OK' button on the top right hand corner to close that program which is missing if I'll to use ToggleStart. Try going into the Display Settings of phonealarm after you activated the ToggleStart and you'll know what I mean.
Can something be done?
Thanks

FOSA - thanks for the tip about ToggleToday before ToggleStart. I've changed the post to reflect this - use ToggleToday first, (if you want to use it, it's not needed, although is recommended).
Then run ToggleStart.
I don't know about voice command, don't use it (anymore) but so long as you follow the same warnings about ToggleToday (ie don't put it in your startup folder) you should be ok. Don't put either one in the startup folder.
Shortly I'll be joining these two progs together, and will make the ToggleToday functionality a bit more robust, right now it's a bit dopey, but works perfectly for me to do what it's supposed to do.
Regarding the OK button - when writing the looong post yesterday, i had made sure I'd written about this, but I've highlighted it above about 5 times now!
Basically: toggleStart shrinks your start bar down to the TOP 2 pixels of the screen, all the way along. So you want to click ok? Click ok - it's still there, but only 2 pixels high. So, to do this, click directly above the signal strength indicator. Obviously you can't see the ok/close button now, (and you might want to edit a theme or something to make it easier to find 'blind'), but it's still there. So, as indicated, all of the start bar functions are there, but in the top 2 pixels. So click on the left above the OS X icon to get the normal Start Menu. Click on the OS X icon to switch skins. Click on profiles to change phonealarm profile. Click above it to change the PDA's volume.
See if this works. If you have problems, back to the drawing board

RE
Hi vijay555,
Thanks.
Finally, I found what you were explaining about closing screen, however, the duplicate phonealarm bars problem still exists.
ToggleToday and ToggleStart programs are put in the Program Files folder
OK, here's how the problem appear. Without using MS Voice Command,
a) activated TodayToggle - bottom bar hidden
b) activated TodayStart - top bar hidden (phonealarm bar moves up)
c) activated TodayToggle again - bottom bar appears and now I have duplicate phonealarm bar
So, there's no problem with MS Voice Command and its not related to where I put the files ToggleToday and ToggleStart in my case
Can you check? Thanks

So from a fresh today screen:
To load:
1. Load toggle today - bottom bar disappears.
2. Load ToggleStart - top bar disappears and becomes slightly messy. (now change away to any other window, and come back, and it should look correct).
Finished!
To unload:
1. Load togglestart FIRST.
2. Then load toggletoday.
It should all work nicely then.
The order is important; later versions will do both jobs in one.
Glad you worked out where the buttons where! I managed to get home to do the screenshot.
V

is it just me but why has nobody asked you for that really smart phone alarm skin,
anychance i can get a copy?

fuzzysb - obviously I'm doing something wrong:
there's a link already posted to about 500pages :!: down my first post.
It's a skin I knocked together. It works very nicely with this hack (it's designed to align with the normal start functions, so you can use both at the same time - eg click phonealarm profile=set profile. Click above it=set volume), but perfectly fine on it's own.
I spoke to Bruce, the guy that made phonealarm, and soon-ish he'll be putting a clock onto phonealarm, so the skin will be even more useful.
I'm working on a new version of this hack. Clearly no one's interested in using it so far! It works great on my system tho
V
PS you weren't the first to ask

yeah i have just seen it, you are not doing something wrong it is just that i am a thick t**t

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I am interested... saw you post on the phoneAlarm skin page..
Looks like a great program, just waiting til I get some time to run a backup before installing ;-)
Is it possible to run something like SPB Plus in the background? and phoneAlarm in the middle?

sphinx88 - you have my assurance you don't need a backup
It doesn't do anything other than graphical, so worst case, soft reset will get you back on your feet. But, the basic advice:
Code:
-don't put ToggleToday in your startup folder
-Run Toggletoday first.
-Then run ToggleStart
To Unload:
-Run ToggleStart
-Run ToggleToady
Simple eh?
I think i've made it sound a hell of a lot more confusing than it needs to be!
Each program is distinct and optional from the other, depending on the effect you want - no top bar, no bottom bar, or no either bar!
How do you mean about SPBPlus?
ToggleStart actually just shrinks the start bar to the top 2 pixels of your PDA. Then in the gap left behind, you can see your Todayscreen. So you can stick anything you want in the remaining 24 pixels, I use my phonealarm skin, but you can put SPB Plus there. It'd be quite a good idea, but you can't see a lot in 24 pixels high! Phonealarm is perfect, maybe a launcher app, anything really, (eg your scheduler?), just remember you've only got 24 pixels to play with.
If you use it, please post screenshots. I'm interested to see how people play with this!
v

OK We are loaded and Working Well!
This also give me some great ideas for skins... Your is perfect for working on the PDA with a stylus, but when I am driving, I like the big buttons. WOuld you mind if I modified your skin with a Large and Small version?
Tested a couple of skins they all preform well. Great LITTLE LITTLE program!
I think Phone Alarm lets you execute programs, I may use something that is triggered by differnet modes.
FYI - Running and XV6600 Verizon.. No problems seems stable.

Of course - good idea. Don't know if it's really practical that small though - it's just a "shortcut" to the today screen really.
Use phonealarm's change skin on profile, and make a nice chunky skin.
I'd suggest you make one that works so that you can always see the basics at the top, and when you switch to the today screen, you reveal the rest of the skin as a nice chunky affair?
Please post screenshots!
V

Found Little Bug..
I use PocketBreeze... When ever I recieve a phone call or make a phone call, the Settings pops up through what every applciation I am on.
I will try and post a screen shot later..

this is great! I love it!
running ToggleStart & PhoneAlarm on wm2005...
thanx
buzz
ps: I guess i'll buy the PhoneAlarm....

buzz_lightyear :shock:
You use your WM2005 right? My other program, toggletoday, wouldn't be useful for you. It gives a nice fullscreen Today on < WM2005
Re: PocketBreeze don't have it. Try to post screenshots. Will have a look at it shortly.
V

RE
Hi vijay555
The icons for the ToggleStart and ToggleToday are the same color and design. This pose a problem when I put them side-by-side in a launcher bar.
Do you think you can either change the color or the design for one of them?
Thanks

FOSA - icons have been changed.
Uninstall the old version (probably not necessary if you haven't moved them) and redownload the cab from the link above as before.
Reinstall, and you may have to soft reset to get the system to pick up the new icons.
V

RE
Thanks. Got it!

(
yeah, phoneAlarm is running on wm2005, but not counting msgs....
toggleStart runs cool. and it's useful to have it assigned to hw button...

New-ish! VJToggleToday 16% bigger Today screen :)

30 June 2006:
Please note:
ToggleNew, ToggleStart and ToggleToday are WM2003 apps ONLY.
VJToggleToday II alpha is WM5 only. You can download the alpha release here. But please read the thread from the end, backwards, to find out its limitations.
Remember that you can launch it with the command line
Code:
-config
to show the settings.
_________________________________________________
23 Oct 2005 Guys, this is a newer beta version. Read second page of thread for info
Guys:
This is hopefully the new and slightly improved version of my today screen hacks seen here and here.
This version is hopefully startup folder safe - I drop it into my startup folder and it does the business quite safely.
- This has been only tested on PPC2003; it should work fine on all PPCs.
- I'm not sure what it will do on WM2005 - Buzz, anyone? It should be fine at removing the Start Bar on WM2005 - but you don't have the equivalent New bar to remove to begin with.
- ToggleStart should work fine on VGA, but ToggleNew will not.
Try it - tell me if it crashes out. Don't put it in your start folder until you know it works. If it works, great!
I don't think this is Wisbar compatible, read page 3 of the thread!
So recall: this program or suite of programs can remove the New bar at the bottom of the today screen. It can also remove the start bar at the top of the screen, shrinking it down to 2 pixels for use in the following manner with PhoneAlarm or your weapon of choice:
After Installation of ToggleNew:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
After Installation of ToggleStart:
ToggleStart in use:
Dual functionality - tiny start bar at the top of the screen, alongside PhoneAlarm:
Please uninstall the old version of VJToggleStuff before installing the new version.
CAB version
Individual .exe if required:
ToggleNew
ToggleStart
TodayToggle
Ok - so the cab should install 3 files into \program files\VJSoft\
it should also make some shortcuts in your Programs Menu.
We have 3 files:
BEGINNERS guide:
ToggleNew.exe will Toggle on and off the "New" bar at the bottom of your today screen.
ToggleStart.exe will Toggle on and off the Start bar at the TOP of your today screen. PLEASE ensure you know how to use the shrunken Start bar - it's still there, but tiny and along the top edge. OK button is still where it should be, top right corner of the screen (see the screenshots above). Please read the old threads to get the idea, or just try it! Soft reset if you get stuck.
Beginners can ignore TodayToggle.exe.
ADVANCED USERS:
TodayToggle.exe The three files are actually the same program - but some people will like to assign them to a hardware key to toggle things on and off on a whim so I've made ToggleNew and ToggleStart toggle the single item. However, TodayToggle will, by default, toggle BOTH the New bar and the Start bar at the same time - if that's what you want and know how to use the shrunken start bar.
However, the programs take a command line option if you are secure with creating shortcuts:
Code:
TodayToggle.exe menu
will toggle the New menu bar ONLY
Code:
TodayToggle.exe start
will toggle the Start bar ONLY
Code:
TodayToggle.exe both
or
Code:
TodayToggle.exe
will toggle both at the same time
If you're confident in creating shortcuts, you can get rid of ToggleNew.exe and ToggleStart.exe, and just use TodayToggle.exe with command lines.
Note that TodayToggle.exe also contains three icons, so using something like claunch or a shortcut you can assign the Min, Max and UpDown icons as appropriate.
/end of advanced user guide
All:
I hope you find these useful. Read the old threads to get the hang of what you can do with it.
You can get my phonealarm skin from here. Please read this thread to read how to use it with ToggleStart.
I consider this software beta until you guys report back and say it's ok or worst case, it turned your PDA into a Nokia.
Don't forget - after installing these hacks you'll need a bigger wallpaper to fill the extra space! If you don't, the wallpaper tiles itself.s
Also - if you use something like SPB battery monitor at the top of the screen, you won't be able to use a shrunken Start Bar (ie ToggleStart) correctly. Disable it or read this thread
Please post screenshots if you do anything nice with this stuff.

August 31 2005:
- SIP keyboard panel issue [Grumble's post]. It will hide itself in normal use

Nice work Vijay but (you knew it was coming didnt ya) the function I wanted this app for was the Hide New. When I run it, 'new' disappears as expected but leaves a white line in its place. Also if I exit an app it leaves the input button showing (see screenshot).
Is this something to do with the size of the bitmaps created for themes ?
Oh well a nice app anyway and Im sure I can get used to the white line

Yep Grumble, this issue is posted on the old threads - I'll update the first post to remind users - you now need a bigger wallpaper to fill the screen :wink:
The white line was actually on your wallpaper to begin with! The PPC tiles the wallpaper if it's not big enough - so it's actually repeating your wallpaper, white line and all. The white line is actually hidden behind the start bar at the top of your screen normally. Try running togglestart to see!
I've noticed the keyboard input thing - it seems to disappear in normal usage.
V

The case here is that your wallpaper ain't big enough. PLease remember when the people made their TSK, they did not put into consideration that the bottom bar could be knocked off. I have the same problem but I just made a way to cover it up. As for the keyboard being there, I noticed this problem comes when you have MortPlayer installed and when you hit the red phone button to take it off your screen. Basically it leaves the keyboard item there.

Mvmajorem - did you try the new version?
I had to rewrite the thing from scratch in Visual Studio 2005. I'm not sure if I screwed anything up on the way.
V

I've tried the new plugin and it does leave the keyboard behind ruining what you wanted to achieve in the first place.
Still thanks for the release, the icon you used now is better, that is all i can say.

BTW, is there a way to make the Start Bar transparent or even change the Start button icon without the use of 3rd party software.

Guys, if the keyboard icon comes up, try pressing the green call button and then going back. It should be gone. I might look into this issue if it's a big problem.
Transparent start bar - kinda possible, but not without some 3rd party software as far as I know. I might look into knocking something together, but I'm working on a couple of other hacks and something that might make ToggleToday even more useful I hope. It's more important right now
V

Vijay,
I've gone back to the older version. I like it much better without the keyboard sticking out.
I love the program!
BTW: Where can I learn to make these kinds of software?

Mvmajorem - I'll look into the keyboard issue. I don't think it happens with the old version right? If not, it should be easy to fix.

Vijay
This is great. The two combined and on one hardware button.
This is my screen ;
Kill Bob, Mick, Harry - any of them, I just don't care !!!

Rick GM - lovely!
I've got a couple more refinements to make... will try and keep you posted.
Rick - did you notice the problem with the SIP (keyboard icon) with the previous version? I'm not really doing anything different with this version, but the SIP icon pops up occassionally. I can force it to hide, but it would require reworking the program into something that will eat CPU. I don't want that - if you find the problem, just press the green key (call button) and go back and it should be gone.
I've had to enlarge my NotesToday as well because there's so much more room now!
It seems like no one is interested in my new program which goes nicely with a fresh Today screen - it causes the today to pop up on hardware keypress, but only stay onscreen for as long as you hold the button. So eg you're in Contacts, but want to check NotesToday, you can pop into Today and back again to Contacts with no clicks.
Keep posting screenshots and/or problems! :wink:
V

Vijay
The keyboard icon does stay after you close an application but I just press my Toggle hardware button twice (diasble/enable) and it's gone.
Haven't tried the new app yet but am more than happy with the functionalityof what you've already done!

Does anybody know - where to get this plugin?
[/img]

Is it normal that after a soft reset,the files are gone?!!!

vijay555
Could you please pack your skin in cab file, i don't understand how to install it. Thank you in advance!

Vijay,
Anyway you can address the keyboard issue ? That did not exist with your previous version.
BTW, this works awesome is start up. Had not had issue with it at all.

Please! Solve the SIP issue, it s really annoying. It s good app!

New! BETA!! Thumb Friendly Reminders and More!

Guys,
This program is BETA
It only works on the English WM2003 Rom, and QVGA only (for now)
Backup your system and give it a go, it can't do anything dangerous, worst case just soft reset. But backup just in case :wink:
Ok, as of writing WM2005 might be out on Magician, so I'm distracted.
But, this is a minor advancement of a proof of concept I put up here.
This version has a major improvement. Read and see...
On loading up, you will see some tiny dots in the top left. It can't be moved for now, and you can't change the image for now (you can use a resource hacker if you want)
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
In normal use it does nothing. If the dots are active they will show the current time and Battery level.
Clicking on the dots will bring up your New Bar - the bar that is normally at the bottom of your Today screen! This means that you can access the New menu or bluetooth or activesync etc from your normal screen. Click it again to go back to your Start Bar. This hack is particularly useful will my TodayToggle program.
Ok: clicking and holding on the dots will bring up a menu. There's only one active option - Reminders.
Don't you hate it when reminders pop up and block you doing anything else? You don't want to snooze it, you just want to go back to betaplayer etc? Click on the option "Reminders" and the current active reminder will be "ghosted" (it won't do anything until there's a reminder on screen)
The reminders will not now bother you. However, to bring the reminders back up, choose the "reminders" option from the menu again, and it will come back up! Note the little alarm icon in the New Bar? That shows that you've got outstanding reminders.
Finally: piece de resistance
Reminders eh? Why where all the buttons so small? You have to take your stylus out just to click "Dismiss"? Who designed this thing? :roll:
So:
There's a slight delay before the buttons are changed, but hopefully it makes sense. BTW - "All!" means dismiss all. I couldn't fit anything else in
So, whadya think?
This is beta. There's more to add to this program, but I hope it's useful.
Note: it's likely to have some minor CPU usage. If you don't want it, don't use it.
Please provide feedback!
HideStart
If you "lose" the dots, try reloading it. If that doesn't work, close it by going To Settings > System > Memory.
I don't know if it works with Wisbar etc. Try it and report!
V

Could you make it so the close button is not there ? (The cross on the top-right when its active)
You could then close by clicking on the 'dots' and selecting,.. say EXIT, or shutdown option.
Also, when closing down, maybe restoring the New menu ??
Will start to have a play.
Jim.....

I know the snooze button relates to the Snooze combo but, to me, the large buttons should be the All and Snooze, with the Dismiss being the small (or perhaps equal) size - better for hitting in the half light. The large ones should be at the bottom left and right for similar reasons (easier to hit).

nice, as always!!!
buzz

thanks for that

On my S100 with french rom it didn't work very well !
When i load hidestart i can see the time and battery indicators but the dots aren't there !
I've also tried a reminder and the buttons are not changed ! If your hack works like Mamaich hack for the phonedialer it doesn't work maybe because the title of the reminder window is different between roms ( "reminder" in the english rom but "rappel" in the french rom ).
It's just an idea ..

Switchcorp - good point, this is all English right now; I'll update the first post to indicate. If you send me the name of the "Reminder" window, and the exact text on Dismiss, Dismiss All, Snooze (button) and "Snooze:" text I'll try to update it, although probably not before my holiday
I don't understand why you can't see the dots. Did you try launching it again? If you "lose" it, you have to close it with Settings > System > Memory.
Are you using anything like Wisbar etc?
jimbo123 - when closing down it should restore the new menu to it's original state I hope. Please indicate if it doesn't.
I'm going to work on putting a "close" icon on the reminder itself, so instead of having to go to the Menu > Reminders option, there'll automatically be a "close" button to press and hide the reminders. But I got tired last night, so had to leave it!
mtbsoft - I understand about the buttons, and I'll happily reconfigure them, but remember that the All button is only shown if there's more than one reminder active, so you'll only have the Snooze and Dismiss buttons with <2 reminders. The reminder text box can't be made wider because the blue highlight is hardcoded to that width, so I don't have much space to play with
Buzz - get back to work :wink:

Translation :
"Reminder" window -> "Rappel"
"Dismiss" -> "Effacer"
"Dismiss All" -> "Effacer tout"
Snooze (button) -> "Répéter"
"Snooze:" -> "Répéter:" ( i suppose it's the time box ? )
I've tried again by redownloading hidestart ... i see the dots but after the "new bar" moves i've a bug on the bottow of my screen and hidestart is crashed !
I've soft reseted but i can't see the dots anymore ... it's very strange

Switchcorp - thanks for the info, I'll try to put it in.
I don't quite understand about the bug and the crash. Don't use it on your ROM for now, it can't do anything useful (I think the hiding startbar feature also uses English names, I don't have the code in front of me right now).
General:
Are you using anything like Wisbar?
This interface is only very temporary. The functionality will go into another program I'm writing, but I thought the Reminder button hack was useful so put it out now. The dots work well on my colour theme and the position is convenient....
Sorry it doesn't work Switch!
V

I've forgot to say that i don't use any soft like wisbar !
The only hack that i've done is the time under the date ( instead of the time only ).
Soft i use : Phonealarm, Alarm Today, Phone dashboard and PHM tray lauch and SPB Pocket plus.
Only those are active !

No problem vijay555 I like your work and if i can help to improve your app's i'll be happy !
Hidestart is a good companion of the microsoft voice command i think For me it is very usefull
I'll wait that it works with the french roms !
I've tried to desactivate all my today plugins but it doesn't change anything

I'm glad you find some of it useful at least!
Today plugins won't make any difference, i'm sure it's the way I find the windows using the English names... I'll have to find french rom for the emulator I think...
I've got a nice Today Plugin I'm making. Some will find it useful. But i've no time to release it right now :wink: Soon.

Guys, I've just noticed a bug on my version (I'm using a different version to the one released here). Can you try writing something using the soft keyboard, eg editing a schedule or something, for longer then 5 seconds.
Does it work correctly? On mine HideStart is stealing focus, ie stopping you writing after a couple of seconds. Feedback if possible please!
V

Hi vijay555,
I also, like full screen and am using your toggle Today program. the HideStart didn’t work in my JAM (Arabic Windows)
I would suggest auto hide for both Start Bar and new Bar after a few second
in today screen and when there is any activity like new message, missed call
or so, the Start Bar only will show up till you clear it then it goes back to hide
again. I think this will be very nice. I assigned Start Menu to one of the Hard
Button and would be nice to have both start Bar and New Bar to show up
when pressing this Hard button!!!
Do you mind spreading your programs in other forum and mention your
name and post???
Thanks and Appreciated,
ksasat

ksasat:
Feel free to distribute any of my stuff anywhere, although try to mention my name and get people to post problems on XDA forums (ie here!)
You should be aware that Hidestart seems to cause a minor problem for me; I use a different version to the one here, so maybe that's the problem, but it seems to take focus while you're typing a message or something after a few seconds. Now one else mentioned this, so as I said, this release is just an idea and if it works for you, great! Please post here and say it works fine. But if not, please indicate here so I can look into it when I get back.
TodayToggle (the latest one) toggle start bar and new bar at the same time using one program. HideStart is English only for now - you'll have to get me the same info supplied by Switchcorp (ie arabic names).
Take care!
V

Hi vijay555
All sorts of problems with this, I'm afraid.
I can launch it ok and the dots appear, I tap them and the new bar moves up to the top... and that's it - no more functionality. I'm using Pocket Plus and think the close/minimise function might be interferring with it. It is still running but I can't do anything with it.
Assuming I can get it working, I'd like to suggest a couple of other changes...
Make the time and battery display optional, I have them visible via other methods and would prefer to see 'Start'.
Make the application 'invisible' to task lists such as Pocket Plus, SmallMenuPlus and RunningPrograms - I think this is part of the problems I'm suffering, it is an application and not a process.
I'll keep trying different combinations to see if I can get it working (and identify why/how).
Congrat's and enjoy the honeymoon!

Congratulation and have fun.
Regards,
ksasat

Guys,
This program is BETA
It only works on the English WM2003 Rom, and QVGA only (for now)
Backup your system and give it a go, it can't do anything dangerous, worst case just soft reset. But backup just in case :wink:
Ok, as of writing WM2005 might be out on Magician, so I'm distracted.
But, this is a minor advancement of a proof of concept I put up here.
This version has a major improvement. Read and see...
On loading up, you will see some tiny dots in the top left. It can't be moved for now, and you can't change the image for now (you can use a resource hacker if you want)
In normal use it does nothing. If the dots are active they will show the current time and Battery level.
Clicking on the dots will bring up your New Bar - the bar that is normally at the bottom of your Today screen! This means that you can access the New menu or bluetooth or activesync etc from your normal screen. Click it again to go back to your Start Bar. This hack is particularly useful will my TodayToggle program.
Ok: clicking and holding on the dots will bring up a menu. There's only one active option - Reminders.
Don't you hate it when reminders pop up and block you doing anything else? You don't want to snooze it, you just want to go back to betaplayer etc? Click on the option "Reminders" and the current active reminder will be "ghosted" (it won't do anything until there's a reminder on screen)
The reminders will not now bother you. However, to bring the reminders back up, choose the "reminders" option from the menu again, and it will come back up! Note the little alarm icon in the New Bar? That shows that you've got outstanding reminders.
Finally: piece de resistance
Reminders eh? Why where all the buttons so small? You have to take your stylus out just to click "Dismiss"? Who designed this thing? :roll:
So:
There's a slight delay before the buttons are changed, but hopefully it makes sense. BTW - "All!" means dismiss all. I couldn't fit anything else in
So, whadya think?
This is beta. There's more to add to this program, but I hope it's useful.
Note: it's likely to have some minor CPU usage. If you don't want it, don't use it.
Please provide feedback!
HideStart
If you "lose" the dots, try reloading it. If that doesn't work, close it by going To Settings > System > Memory.
I don't know if it works with Wisbar etc. Try it and report!

You guys already have soft keys. But I'll see, I need to find out if I can hack the notification balloons for both for VJSihaya anyway.

[new release] VJBigPhone VGA Phone Dialler Fix (beta)

New readers, please skip this part, read the rest of this post, and then come back here:
[edit 29 November 2005 02:32]
Guys, I've updated to version 0.5; download the cab here
I've left the original cab link on my website in case v0.5 screws up.
I've only updated VJBigPhoneRes in cab v0.5, not the standalone.
Note that in order to install the new cab, you will have to run the original
VJBigPhoneRes before the installation in order to close it down.
Then install the new cab.
Additionally, download this cab to fix the button text (it puts text in the middle) and this file to fix the backdrop painting issue by putting a new backdrop in your \windows\ folder, thanks to Azhad!
The new version also fixes the wireless manager (see below), and hopefully moves all buttons. I can't test this without your help, so give it a go and post here if there are problems.
I haven't fixed the see through backdrop, I explain why below.
VJBigPhoneRes cannot fix the caller progress dialog the first time the phone is run (eg after a soft reset), because until you've made a call or shown the dialog, the caller progress doesn't exist. However, after you've loaded the phone, it should fix it all times in the future.
Rotation and fixing the phone won't force the phone on top now. It should all be done in the background.
If this version works, it's one step away from a translatable version for Hebrew etc. So please test.
Once we've got the dialler buttons working, I'll work on fixing the paint problem.]
Original post
Guys,
I'm sure all you Universal guys have applied the VGA hack and have since discovered how it foobars your phonedialler.
Until some one gets around to making a dynamic resolution changer, I'm presenting VJBigPhone to permit you to use the phone dialler in VGA mode.
It is hot off the press. Let me say, this took many hours of finicky work, and I'd appreciate a donation if you use it, because I did this for you guys. I don't use my Universal as a phone, so this is purely for me to give to the Community </end guilt trip>
Ok. first
it's for the English edition of WM5 only
I will get around to making it translatable, but right now my behind and my head both hurt from too much coding
The cab will install two files in your
start menu > vijay555 > vjbigphone
The file VJBigPhone can be launched each time you want to fix the phone. You will have to do this on startup and each time you change screen orientation.
The file VJBigPhoneRes is resident version. That means it will stay in memory and fix the phone every time you change orientation automatically. To unload the resident version, just launch it a second time. It will give you a message to show it's been closed.
Choose which version you require (but use only one at a time).
For most purposes VJBigPhoneRes should be best, and can be placed in your startup folder to fix the phone automatically.
This should work at any DPI, although I don't know if the button images are always available.
Example use:
before VJBigPhone
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
After VJBigPhone
And landscape:
After VJBigPhone
Call Progress
Wireless Manager:
before:
after:
(note Wireless Manager will only be fixed after you've loaded it once. If you don't load it once, it won't fix it. So load wireless manager before VJBigPhoneRes, or force it to be fixed by changing rotation AFTER you've loaded it)
Issues:
- The buttons look pretty good, although the text seems to be a bit offline. I can't fix that, it seems to be coded internally.
- The dialler skins built in don't seem big enough to cover the bottom of the window; the background shows through a little. I can't fix that.
[edit:
I've figured out why the dialler background looks funny.
This screenshot shows a composite of a QVGA screen and a VGA screen resized to match.
The OS accounts 26 pixels for the start bar and the soft menu buttons. However, going from QVGA to VGA, you can see that those bars are only half of the size the OS expects at QVGA. So, we have a number of pixels unaccounted for, and they don't get painted.
This can be partially corrected, but I will only try to fix this after the dialler buttons are working correctly)
Composite:
Cab is available above.
Please leave feedback here or on my forum
Don't forget the donation!
If you can't make a donation, at least check out my ads on my webpage.

v0.2: Hopefully fixed the bug with the video call buttons
v0.3: Now supports resident version (fixes the phone 0.5 seconds after you rotate, to allow for any slowdown caused by other software).
v0.5: Fixes updates in the background so phone doesn't pop up on rotation, fixes wireless manager and hopefully corrects all buttons.

I will try now, YOU ARE A LEGEND, AND IF IT WORKS,Donations on the way to you bank account. Have a bloody wonderful life and remember you are a legend.........

[updated at 2320 11 November 2005]
Seal and anyone else: you might want to redownload the cab if you downloaded it in the last 30 mins.
I've just removed the bit that changed the titlebar text to say my name. As much as I love egotism, it might intefere with other programs including one I'm writing myself
No functional difference so if you like my name, keep it there!
V

Just trying it, vijay.
I thought you'd been quiet lately. Didn't realise you were doing your inventing...
I can't get this to work. I opened the CAB and it installed. Nothing in the phone changed. I did a soft reset just in case.
I tap the icon Programs -> vijay555 -> VJBigPhone -> VJBigPhone and I see the phone dialler screen with a dialog over the top saying 'Already fixed the Phone!'
I tap OK on the dialog and nothing changes.
Where did I go wrong? :?:
I'm in landscape mode and have been since I installed it.
Great to hear we might have this solution though. Good work! :cheers:
Edit: When I flipped to portrait mode and then ran the app again it worked.

SiliconS: it should work in any orientation.
Install the app.
On launching VJBigPhone it will find the phone app. If it's not loaded, it'll load it.
Then, it'll fix the keys and make a note that it's fixed the keys.
Then if you try to run it again you'll get the dialog that it's already fixed em.
However, if you change orientation, the phone app positions all the keys, so you have to run VJBigPhone again.
I wonder why it didn't work the first time you ran it?
How is it now?
Post screenshots if they're helpful or interesting!
V
PS Quiet? I got the fullscreen terminal services hack out this week, feeling the wrath of my better half for my efforts! A bunch of other stuff releaed over the last week or so (smaller things I think) and been working on my website.
I'll be trying to launch a blog very shortly to post my musings on what needs hacking. Left Handed scrollbars have my name all over them...

OK: some quick 'n dirty first feedback.
Would be nice if the text on the buttons were larger. Not a big deal though.
Is there some way of hooking into the screen rotate event in the OS to capture the need to re-run the app? Maybe cos it's not memory-resident it doesn't know what's going on.
Great step forward though.
and lmao @ "send me a small donation via paypal. It will [help] me to keep giving you stuff free!" (I'm assuming that's a deliberately ironic statement! )

tis supposed to be ironic, although the sentiment is that the software is all free. However, if you like it and it makes you feel all tingly inside, send a donation! But you don't have to. But I might start killing puppies if you don't :wink:
Text on the buttons is nothing to do with me, I can't fix that. They're fixed by the dialler, unforunately.
I could hook the rotation event, but hooking is very cpu intensive (because you're pretty much hooking every event, and then filtering the ones you don't want. As such, it's wasteful. As is polling every few seconds). I generally don't hook or poll :shock: but if there's an overwhelming need, I will. But, I don't change orientation that often, so it's not too bad.
V

Another thought: This could be handy in the car, combined with PocketZenPhone: Switch to car profile in PZP which runs VJBigPhone to make sure that the dialler is full size ready for calls on the move. Hmm. I can see that being useful... We'll see
Other than that I think I'd need to map it to a button somehow so that I could fix the phone instantly if I needed the dialler.
Edit: amended cos my original post sounded negative...

The video phone button is stuffed up, it is still in the old position, you can still see it in landscape view.
I noticed that in all your pictures the video call button is missing.

Hmmm, I don't have a video call button.
I guess it's something from the extended ROM i never installed.
Can you post a screenshot?
V

II got an error "Couldnt't find the Phone", maybe cuz iI have hebrew language installed.... :\

zpdy, yes, it's clearly English language only. Once I get it working properly, I'll convert it over to a translatable version.
V

Ok, thanks to Buzz I unlocked my Extended Rom and installed the video call poo. FYI, it slows down your system. I'm going to clear it out as soon as this prog is finished.
So, this version (0.3) now fixes the video call buttons and some other stuff.
However, I don't use the phone at all on my universal, so I don't know if I've missed any buttons, so let's say if you find any issues, please be nice and mail me, pm, or post on my forum/here. Send a screenshot if you can.
The new cab contains a standalone version, in case you have troubles with the resident one.
The other file is a resident version. Despite talking out of my rear end earlier, the resident version should use minimal resources, and will fix the dialler 0.5 seconds after your change orientation (to allow for any slowdown caused by other software you're using).
Either version can be put in your startup folder. I recommend the resident version.
Please post if you find any issues.
V :wink:
ps if this technique works, I'll get around to the foreign language version some time.

vijay555 YOU ARE A LEGEND, thanks for the phone skinning program.
Love it. :lol:

Is it working ok? Any other issues?

I dread to hear them, but you might as well get them off your chest!

fyi all: don't use a task killer to close the phone app. if you do vjbigphoneres won't update the buttons again until you change orientation. use vjbigphone as a standalone fix or get your taskiller to ignore cprog.exe
v

Seal, thanks for the donation! :wink:
Can somebody post here or send me a pic of the qvga dialler? I'm not sure if I'm formatting the screen entirely correctly, that white bit at the bottom bothers me and I can't remember what the qvga dialler looks like. The VGA setup is already flaky enough to risk de-ozvga-ing :shock:
If this technique is working ok for everyone then I'll tidy it up a bit internally and try to work on an international version. And some other stuff I had up my sleeves
V

Yes if you could fill the bottom of the dialer area so you can't see the screen behind it, that would be awesome.

[new release] VJSmallIcons II - "Programs" view

Guys, this is an update to my old program VJSmallIcons. To say it's long overdue is an understatement
This version retains and persists settings between folders. It can also make the Programs launcher fullscreen. When you go fullscreen, there is a menu option to permit navigation back up to the previous folder.
On a whim, for no good reason at all, I've also implemented my interpretation of the Vista View Mode slider, as seen here in Vista.
The slider can be used to toggle modes. Even if you don't need the app, try the slider! I quite like it :wink: Hopefully you'll see this again in VJSihaya.
Normal Mode
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Fullscreen Mode
Available on my website!
V

nice unlike the first one, this one works on my device %)
the slider's a bit silly, I suppose, but kinda cute
( are you supposed to be able to drag it? only seems to respond to taps )
However... I just got stuck in a subdir :x VJSmallIconsII disappeared, and tapping 'OK' (which normally goes a dir up) did nothing. Not sure what I did to get in that state. Edit: Found it, check follow-up posts
and a suggestion... the 'go up one level' bit, perhaps it should carry the name of the level above, instead of the current level?
bug report.. if you run it twice, you will seemingly just be using VJSmallIconsII as normal. But changing any of the modes does nothing. If you exit it, it becomes apparent that you were already running it a copy of it - as that instance with its view (which changes correctly) is still there.
btw - nice UI (not sarcasm.. it really is nice!)

whewps.. now it locked up my device >_< I'll try and repro

yay repro
I have PHM PPC Powertoys installed, so I have a dir structure...
"\Program Files\PHM Tools\PHM PPC Powertoys\"
from a fresh boot:
1. Start > Programs (required first-run)
2. Start > VJSmallIconsII (in program history, still)
3. Start > Programs > PHM Tools > PHM PPC Powertoys
4. Tap VJSmallIconsII floater
result: floater disappears
expected result: pop up menu should appear
at this pont everything still seems fine - you can navigate around, etc.
5. Tap OK button
result: nothing happens, you're stuck at this level
expected result: should go up a level
-----
With MagicButton running - Steps 1-4
5. Tap (MagicButton) OK button
result: device locks up
expected result: should go up a level
-----
I don't know if it's the length of the folder name, or the fact that there's two spaces, or... etc. Can't keep poking at it right now

ZeBoxx: Many thanks.
I'll look into the hang. That's not when you're running it twice is it?
It's hanging because it's subclassing the Programs screen, and if for some reason VJSmallIconsII crashes, it'll take the Programs screen down with it.
It does contain code to detect multiple instances, but it occurs to me that because of the way the window is created it's probably not being detected. I didn't contemplate it being run twice I'll fix that!
Yes, slider responds to taps not sliding :wink: Not sure if I'll fix that! At least for now, it's just GUI...
The folder name - good idea, although it's basically for showing what the current folder name is, if you've got it in fullscreen mode and can't see for yourself. I don't mind incorporating either way, whichever you guys think is most logical.
Bug is confirmed with PHM (I have a similar folder structure). I'll look into it when I get home.

Probably doesn't matter - the hang is just when using MagicButton, so I suspect it's because it's using a different method to 'close' the window?

V

What os is this supposed to work with? I put it on my 2002 devices and no go. I don't like to try unfinished stuff on the newer phones that I actually use (as phone).
This is a bit off topic....
vijay555, your programs alway seem so slick. You obviously put a great deal of work into them. My question is, why spend so much time on programs that help the user interact with the device when the there is a lack of programs that provide real usefull functionality. I am not critisizing any of you projects, more just pointing at what I see as a lack of things to actually do with a ppc once you have it working.

Hey unable to download this app from your site!

OdeeanRDeathshead: not sure about 2002. It's been tested on Emulator, WM2003SE and WM5. I don't have any 2002 devices to test it on.
Either way, I'd suggest waiting about 45 mins so I can get the buffer overflow bug fixed.
Re the offtopic: I've got a lot of new stuff to write, but for me, I do a lot of playing around mainly as an offshoot of reading. For this app: I wanted to make an app to hide reminders. Thus I wanted an app to remodel the reminders. Thus I wanted to change the button style of the dismiss all button. As a result I thought I'd try the same on the Programs window. It was semi-useful (I never use Programs), so I released VJSmallIcons. I know one guy who used it - it's a small market
Next I'm working on VJToggleToday II. For that, I needed to make a subclassing routine. It was easier to debug that in VJSmallIcons II. So I wrote the subclasser as reusable code.
At the same time, I got interested in owner drawn menus for a TV Listings app I wrote on the PC in VB, which I want to move over to the PPC eventually:
So I experimented with owner drawn menus, and then for no good reason the slider.
So circling back, the subclasser will be re-used in VJToggleToday II, which is a useful app, and the slider will reappear in some form in VJSihaya.
I don't really have time to write "big" apps like a word processor etc. I write what interests or distracts me, or is otherwise being used for research. It's a hobby My stuff is mostly for my own use, or research, but some of it occassionaly might be useful to the wider world, which is why I release it publically. But there are a myriad of bugs and issues in the Phone OS which I like to address for my own use, eg why does it take so many clicks to start a new calendar entry? Why can't we add numbers to existing contacts? If it bothers me enough, I look into my own solutions, more as an academic exercise.
Phew, time for lunch

Guys, I've put the new version, v2.01 back on my site. Fixes the crash on long folder names and prevents loading multiple instances.
