Automatic Time Correcting Application for the Universal ??? - JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General

Does anyone know of any automatic time correcting or syncing application that is compatible with the Universal?
I noticed after 3 days that the clock is some what delayed by 3-4 seconds on mine after manually calibrating it to exactly the same as the actual time.

I use mtimesync to sync with internet timeservers. Works ok, but it ain't freeware. & you need internet access.
Cheers, M

SP timesync
search on google , it's free. there's also a version for your desktop

sp timesync
It's good enough for me, especially cause it's free.
Thanks, M

Thanks very much !!! I'll try it right now.

strange clock behavior

my xda2 clock seems to revert to 2.30 on a daily basis, even when i change it to the proper time..i not sure if this is hapenning while i am using activesync or no ( 1st couple of times it happened i thought i must have accidentally adjusted the clock while the xda wa in my pocket or something, but not so)...any advice on what is going on here.
thanx
Settings?

Same thing occurred with me.
I think it has something to do with your
PC systems clock settings?????
Later
As far as I can tell, the XDA syncs to the PC clock everytime you active sync it. My pc clock was set to june 2001 (I don't use it much) and it used to drive me crazy that this was happening till I found out why !!

Hello Folk!
I have the similar problem...really annoyin' indeed...
Everytime when i sync. with desktop, my qtek's clock jumps 9 hours forward, according to Desktop Clock.
If someone knows why could that be, please write it here!
:? Damn!
Keep up the good work! :wink:

If you go into the Tools then Options on the botton there is a check box, synchronize mobile device clock upon connecting... unclick that and there you go
Tnx a lot, zabes64 !! )
I searched throught that tools menu several times with no success...i really don't know, how could i miss that...
Now it works like a charm....tnx to U M8!! )

I know it's a bit late and you've already got round this problem by not syncing your pda time with desktop, but i just thought i might mention that i had the same problem with my SPV E200. Every time i synched with my computer, the time on the E200 would lose 6hrs, was very frustrating for a few days until i realised that my time zones were set to different places on my phone and computer. Computer was set to London GMT as it should be but phone was set to somewhere in USA thus every time i docked with my computer, the time on the phone was set to the correct time as if i were in USA. Just had to change my time zone to the right one and everything fine
Tnx Pal!
I checked and that was IT!
Now it works Like it should )
Keep up the good work!

Uploading GPS Info

Hi There
Ive tried searching high and low for this type of feature and I cannot find anything. Let me explain..
What I want to do is on my Pocket PC with a GPS unit, is basically have a program running that grabs the Long/Lat data from the GPS at a specified time interval (say every 60 mins) and uploads that to a website or FTP via GPRS.
What I plan to do on the website side of things is to have the website read from that data and load Google Maps to show where the person is!
Anyone already know a program to do this kind of thing?
Thanks in advance
Gary
Hi
I have made a program that will get the gps pos of a device and send it back to a pc via SMS it can send it to a server over gprs.
pjcltd is there any chance of a copy of the program.
Darthgus, hers a laptop solution, I am sure there is a pocket pc solution somewhere.

GPS
Try www.pocketpccreations.com
I have used it to get the location of an operator when tacking data. I have not tried to run a timer it get the data when a user clicks the button. You have to add the gps custom point.
Let me know if you need any further info.

Yea, Im not really wanting to run a program like that to do it, basically I just want something sitting in the background dropping the GPS point every x mins or x hrs type thing to a website/ftp.
We use this for our workers on the road. They send back positions every 10 seconds via their XDA & we track them on maps in the office.
However, it's part of a larger 2-way data app.

ie com1 - com9
and it will send the pos to any sms number that you want

I look forward to testing this program. How do we get the unlimited version if we find it useful?

Perfect Bluetooth Manager for WM5/WM6

hi y'all, developers like me, who upgraded from WM2/WM3 to WM5/WM6, i know they surely miss the Bluetooth Manager, which is in WM2 & WM3, it's always been a full-fledged tool for everything, like creating BT Headset connection, BT Dial up network, BT File Transfer shortcut etc. It also tells you the speed of all active incoming & outgoing bluetooth connections. While in WM5/WM6, there are only few basic features of switching off/on bluetooth and changing its visibility.
Screenshots below, in post#6.
This application will work both in WM5 and WM6, i got this application from FTP of this site(Thanks to Helmi), so felt like posting a link as well. Cheers...
http://rapidshare.com/files/78498277/Broadcom_Bluetooth_Manager.CAB
NOTE: TAKE A PRIOR BACKUP, BEFORE INSTALLING.
Any screenshots?
Am downloading now...will post some screen shots after I've installed.
Broadcomm stack
Well, first of all , this has it's own thread . Just search for boradcomm / vidcomm bluetooth stack , and you will stumble upon it .
As far as I know , the forum paid $ 100 for a developer who ported this from the IPAQ operating system.
I installed it once ,on a previous WM6 edition , and it worked ( but see below ) , but i'm unable to get it to work with the more recent editions .
It does work , but there are several drawbacks .
1) Bluetooth light doesn't work any more .
2) Runs out of memory from time to time .
3) Not very well integrated into the OS .
etc , etc .
But never mind me , give it a try and post the results . ( PM me too ! ! ! )
Ummmm, thanks for that heads up...makes me think twice about testing this any further now...
hi mates, as requested by u, i m postin' some screenshots of this application. In the meanwhile, i discover'd one more function. When u turn the bluetooth on, and go to the traditional file explorer(the default one), if u right-click on any file, it will give u an option to send via bluetooth, the best part, there will be a drop-down menu, for the paired bluetooth devices, so that u don't need to make a search again.
And i agree with Dakshithaw, i myself mention'd that i got this app. listed in the FTP of this site, felt like posting a link. Bcuz a novice user wouldn't serarch for BROADCOM STACK, would try for bluetooth manager or something like this. Bluetooth light workin perfectly fine here, however it runs out of memory and fails to start sometimes(1 in 10 for me), so i reboot and work it out. It's well integrated in the OS, This bluetooth manager opens automatically when u click on the icon of bluetooth . It's actually worth using it, bcuz of its utilities, interface etc. Adieu..

Hi mate, initially, when i wuz postin' this application, i actually tried to upload it, in this thread itself. But it didn't work, it prompts "upload failed" i zipped it as well, but that didn't help either. So i gave up, and uploaded it to Rapidshare.
Just now, after seeing your reply, i tried to upload it again, no go. In fact, i discovered that i am unable to upload any file above 2MB. So, i have sent an e-mail to the webmaster, awaiting his reply..
You can either wait, or PM me your e-mail address, i ll mail it to you. The Rapidshare link is workin' fine, i tested it again.

Caused major problems with my bluetooth radio - in fact messed it up pretty bad... TomTom stopped working, uninstalled this and TT started working again...but BT radio seems irreparably damaged I can't pair up with my car anymore...plus I've lost all sound! Oh man, I'm having to do a hard-reset now...
I tried this on Hermes with WM6. I had it maybe couple of days installed and i didn`t use any bluetooth accessories with it. Today i tried to unistall this program and it caused a hard reset! After unistalling device reboots and after splash screen there was only white screen. Several soft resets or removing battery didn`t help. Hard reset solved this...
i found this bluetooth manager also on LG KS20
Faced the music..
Sorry for the trouble, mates. In fact, i never felt like uninstalling it, nor do i have GPS, so didn't know the consequences. However, after readin' ur posts, i uninstalled it and faced it. The sounds went off, even mp3 files were comin' corrupt. Had to do a hard reset to resolve. But i ll have to install it back, b'cuz it works, as an utility for me. However, i ll just put a warning msg to take a prior backup.

Even i do get this msg sometimes, this happens when there are too many applications running in the background, already. Either close the idle applications, or do a Soft-reset. Try to run it after a soft reset, it would work.

Does'nt seems to work on my htc touch !
Even after removing the soft, BT doesn't work anymore... May be must try an hard reset or flash again the phone.
Otherwise, the soft is in german language, where/how to modify/find the english version ?

Email, sms notifications...schedule ?

Hi, I have been searching for this for a few days now and cannot find anything.
is there a software out there that lets you schedule you notifications ?
i like my to hear a sound when I get new mail but I hate to wake me up in the middle of the night
thanks
my device: HTC TOUCH (VOGUE)
wow, can't believe tis is not in demand...I guess I'm weird...
anyone ?

if yes, that is not what I'm looking for...I need something that I can set and forget about.
anyone else ?
phonealarm has got scheduled profiles.
I also want something which can disable the sound of email notification at night - without all the other features - just simply configure so between specific hours, no audio notification is given.
I tried 3 different profile apps I found on this forum (with google search), and I found this one to work the best for me:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=353586
Hope it helps
For my setup, I only have active sync and windows live sync up to midnight and then from 7am in the morning.
Someone mentioned PhoneAlarm...there's also AlarmPal from the same site, which notifies you of an email/SMS/MMS/missed calls etc.. repeatedly until you do something about it (or as many times as you tell it to!); it has the option to define the time period - start and end - for when it should be active.
I used to use it on my Hermes, but have never gotten around to installing it on my Kaiser; I used to have it set to be active from 06:00 to 23:59 which worked well.
It's not free, but it's pretty darn cheap

2 problems with my HD --> GPS, Opera

Hi,
I have a Touch HD since a couple of weeks now but there are two problems that I can't seem to solve. Maybe there are some smart people that can help me with this. (I tried searching the forum first, but can;t find the answers)
1. I have TomTom7 and Igo8 installed and the first 2 weeks they worked like a charm. Now however I get a GPS fix for a couple of seconds, then after a couple of seconds it's completely gone again for it ony to return again after yet another couple of seconds. This repeats over and over making the apps useless for navigation. I tried a soft reset but it didn't work. Also I have this problem with both TT7 as Igo8 so I think it has something to do with the internal GPS receiver. Anyone any bright ideas??
2. I'm pleased with the performance of the Opera browser but lately I come across more and more sites that don't perform well. In most cases I can't log in or I can't use the search function. Some examples:
- hotmail.com --> SMS tab does retreive my mail but my GF can't log in at her hotmail account when she goes to hotmail.com directly
- NBA.com --> hugh NBA fan but is doesn't show well
- moviemeter.nl --> Dutch IMDB so to speak, can't use search function
- Partybets.com --> like sports betting but can't log in
- hyves.nl --> Dutch facebook, can't log in
Can you guys surf these pages correctly? What can I do to get a better performance out of sites that require login or have search functions or is it impossible to get these working on a WM device??
Thanks really much just for reading this cuz it's somewhat of a long question! Any help is appreciated!
Kind regards
Wow...over 60 reads but noone knows the answers. There goes my hope that these problems were easy to fix
i think i have the sort of same problem as you are on opera, did you install the adobeflash plugin? friend of mine , he installed the adobeflash plugin and the flash on the sit works , but mine doesnt donnt why , and i tried to post but no one answered:<

Use Advanced Config to turn AGPS off. I used to have it off and everything worked perfectly until I decided to see what it does. Then it would loose the GPS signal every 2 seconds and when it got a fix it would put me in the sea at 1km depth

I'll try turning A-GPS off and see what that does!! Hopefully this will work!
Does anyone have an answer for my problems with opera or is anyone that can check the above sites i mentioned and use search or login function to see how they'll look on your HD??
Yes, I had the same issue with the GPS a couple months back, and turning off AGPS should fix your problem. As for opera, no browser is perfect but I would reccomend trying skyfire (it will load anysite always and completely).

Try HD radio 1.13.25.24, tt7 works fine with AGPS using this radio (without starting any other GPS-using program). Cold fix < 5-10 sec
How about changing the settings of Opera.
Try to get to the settings when you opened a opera screen.
Turn OFF the "mobiele weergave" option ("Mobile view" in an english version of Opera).
Then you should enable "Javascript" underneath the advanced tab.
Try things like Hyves and Hotmail again.
Hope that works for ya.
