WM5.o Compatible close button needed!

has anybody come across a one button close all application for WM5.0? Spb 3.0.1 is too slow on WM5 and Wisbar Advance 2.4.....is also too much for what is needed. Something like Magicbutton but written for WM5.0 would br nice, nothing that requires much memory, but something that enables the closing of running apps without having to go into start/settings/system/memory...etc.
Wouldn't it be nice if Microsoft had just written in that piece of code, as they are well aware that since PPC2000, that every application opened, remains so unless you manually close it down in memory (therefore hogging memory resources!) :evil:
Well if anyone knows of a WM specific solution, please do share.

I added couple files which they are usefull for you and they include the closeall app.
Install the cab files you'll see the close all, Reset and Running programs, which they can be clicked from the systray directly, after the installation they require a soft reset or else you go to Start>Programs>System open TrayLaunch and press Enable

GSPocketMagic++ is the most stable program I've tried. You need to put some amended bitmaps in to get it to integrate with WM5 but it works well...

Thanks guys. I'll try them both and let you know how I get on.

Damn!! My Jasjar is a Rocket!!

sub69: I don't know what kind of coding they used in that software you recommended, but it has boosted refresh rates and performance in general by at least 30%!! I know this sounds crazy but it's true! My opinion has completely changed about the speed of the Jasjar. It seriously Rocks! I couldn't care less if it doesn't stay this way, because it shows me conclusively, that future ROMs' will probably address the issues I have had thus far.
I needed this. Thanks a bunch sub69; best link I've had with regards to Universal software.
OK 1 gripe only: I've lost my two soft buttons on the bottom bar (any ideas?). It comes back and stays operational after a soft reset, but as soon as I use the 'close all' option of the program, I loose the soft keys! Damn..there's always a hitch!
Another positive though, the speed boost remains even after I have exited the program and revert to standard WM5.0 launcher!
P.S. I had at least 12 programs running simultaneously with no slow downs at all and 15 megs of Memory still available (tried to run out of memory, But couldn't). Very pleased at the moment, this is what I was expecting from the HTC Universal!! I'll test extensively before I comment further.
Thanks again sub69, u da Man!!

Mental...I didn't realise it was that good!?!
Not sure about the soft buttons, although come to think of it I have noticed they've disappeared a couple of times. Must've been when I hit "Close All" too?
Glad I could help, anyway. Do let us know how things go...

Still cannot believe it!! It's still going strong. Sussed the soft button thingy:Under start (GSPocket)/options/settings...uncheck the 2 tabs for'use exten task close' & 'Use Today skin'. That's it. It runs absolutely perfectly for me & with no need for amended bitmaps too! It fits right in wih my red or blue border themes (I only use my own jpegs now instead of themes - in the hope that I get no performance issues.....so far so good). Under menu settind tab I only select close all & setting (which gives me quick access to all settings in WM5.0..personal & system) and under 'click' tab I leave it as default 'Menu'. I'm so impressed with this software, I didn't think non-specific WM5 software coul be this good!
That site you recommended is also tops!
This software is so good that I must put up a new thread to inform all of your wonder find. I just hope all who try it get the same experience I'm getting. Thanks again sub69....I don't even feel the need for the next ROM update/grade...though I won't be turning it away.

Hmmm, not sure why you're that stunned. I'm finding it just fine - but certainly no faster than my JJ runs under PocketPlus 3.01, and the non-VGA graphics are a real step backwards. Anyone know how to solve this?
You mention a speed improvement; can you clarify: Before this, how long did it take to rotate the screen, and how long does it take now?

MagicButton (mbutton) works with batterymeter
Hi All,
I installed MagicButton (freeware) om my K-Jam. It works so far!

That's the file you need to download for the Jasjar, then if you have an SD card reader, you can transfer it directly to it and install the .cab file by selecting it! If you don't have a card reader, let's hope you have a bluetooth dongle, as it's a small file then you can bluetooth it over. However if you have no problems with your activesync connection, just use that to dump the .cab file on your storage card somewhere or into 'My Documents' on the jasjar.
It's not complicated.

Yep, using it myself now - but no speed change over PocketPlus (even after hard reset to remove PP). Using it cos I like menu and PP didn;t offer all that much more that other apps don;t give me.

Speeding up WM5

Apologies if this has been covered before, found these settings on another website (http://smartmobileassets.com/cgi-bin/Blah/Blah.pl?b=winmobile,m=1132411511)
Have they been tried and do they make any difference?
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\FATFS\CacheSize=0x1000(4096)
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\FATFS\EnableCache=0x1(1)
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\Filters\fsreplxfilt\ReplStoreCacheSize=0x1000(4096)

Yes they work!
Yes they work beautiful on my Jasjar, the device is noticeable faster in all the applications.
Thank you!

Yes, "0x1000" in Hex is identical to "4096" in decimal. Put whichever one you want into the relevant registry entry.
I've messed about with these registry settings too, but in all honesty I haven't noticed any difference in performance....

But as darkdestroyer says in the other sites forum...
Yes i've done this since it was first released on Aximsite by another member. At first I had 8 mb allocated, but i guess 4 is the best number. The PDA right after a soft reboot is still the same speed, but after you have all of the shortcut's/programs run once, they will be put into ram and the following run's of those same programs/shortcuts will be much much faster. This is indeed a great find and should be standard with WM5
Click to expand...

No changes in the performance of the device.
The only change is battery draining faster than the original settings.
I've done these changes before and had to reflash the ROM again to my device.
I don't see any need to make these changes, and I don't advise any one to do them.
Regards,

These registry settings have been reported to increase performance by many users on different forums, some using the Dell Axim x51v ,BA users and even some Universal users and are even incorporated into tweaks2k2. My advice is to try them for yourself and make sure the changes are actually being applied after a soft reset and then perform some tasks on your device (see the post by Carnivor) and then make your own judgement. No one so far has reported any negative impact apart from a small reduction in program memory. The changes can always be reversed if needed.

Erm... so is this registry tweak adding cache memory to the system for running applications then? So that .exes or .dlls that are loaded when a program is run are available more quickly to the system next time they're needed?
If so (and I can't quite believe that this could be the case ), are we now recommending that we allow programs to stay resident in memory to speed up the machine?
... much like the standard PocketPC "Minimise, not close" behaviour that people seem to hate so much?
LMFAO if so! (and please tell me I'm wrong if not! )

SiliconS,
You are absolutely wright.
The proof is that after making the registery editing the application when opened for the first time it does not open on a faster way than the original settings, but when you open it for the second time it opens faster that the first time.
The appications remain opened in the phone memory and reduces the devices memory and the battery life as well.

Microsoft's WM5 development team must be LTFAO when they read stuff like this. People spend hours complaining and looking for ways of forcing the system to properly close apps using MagicButton or PocketPlus, and complain when their WM5 machine runs slow.
Then someone comes along offering a way of speeding things up by caching programs and files in memory!!
Am I the only person who thinks this is utterly bizarre?
Oh, man. MS must be laughing at us. :shock:
(No offence intended to anybody - I'm just amused by this. )

So, if you are running something like GSPocketMagic, Magic Button, etc, which actually close applications properly, all you are doing is reducing the amount of memory available to run programs with no gain whatsoever?

Well I made the changes and found no improvement in speed, but it was worth a try. In the light of what has been said, I'd like to change back the settings, but can't remember what they were!!!!!
Can someone post up the original values please

Here they are:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\FATFS\CacheSize=0
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\FATFS\EnableCache=1
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\StorageManager\Filters\fsreplxfilt\ReplStoreCacheSize=0

Many thanks - all sorted

Guys, these registry hacks work! If you haven't been able to get them to work you may have missed a step or two.
First of all, Windows Mobile 5 already holds running information in the RAM, so these tweaks do not truly change that but they do enhance it to make the WM5 device runs MUCH better.
I've have had a TON of people comment and e-mail me about these changes both on my site and many others about how well these tweaks work. In fact, I don't think that the developer of Tweaks2k2 would include that in his latest version if it didn't work.
Couple things; you have to either cycle the power on your WM5 device or do a soft reset from a software app only! Cycling the power will write anything in RAM to ROM, in this case the registry settings you have just changed. If cycling does not work you should soft reset your device using a software app. I think there are a couple free apps to do that but you can also use SPB's Pocket Plus or others. If you just hit the reset button on the back after making the changes it soft resets right away without writing RAM content to ROM.
You can check this by looking at your registry settings after a soft reset to see if the changes took.
I have still noticed that sometime after a reset my device will still run slowly but it isn't because of these changes. In fact, most of the time it is perfectly fine and MUCH better than it was before the changes. MUCH!
Be sure to also turn off error reporting and do the activesync hack to keep those from draining battery and you should do well.
Again, many have made these changes and seen a very significant improvement in performance.

New to XDA EXEC

Hello one and all.
I have been looking at this forum for about 1 week and i'm still none the wiser. This may be because I have no idea what im doing and I am a little worried about making rom changes as I have no experinace of this.
I have a 02 exec. Which i am happy with but its a bit slower than I thought it would be. The phone seams to mess around when answering.
I have booted it up as normal on the basic setting.
A few questions that I have :-
What is the best setting to boot up on basic or corperate with the code ?
What reg changes are critical to boost performance ?
Any Software that I should get for the Xda ?
VGA settings do I need to change them ? What effect does it have.
Any advise would be good. If it could be given in a format my 2 year old could understand that would be good for me.
Thank you in advance

You'll find a wealth of information on each of your questions by browsing & searching the posts already on this forum.

thanks moandal that's why I posted.
1 post says basic setup another say corporate. 1 post says hack this that and the other. another says not to.
I'm new to pocket pc.
these forums do not make it clear what is best.
example radio version 1.06 or 1.08 at least 3 posts on here saying each one is better than the other. I have no idea.
all I was asking for is some guidance as to which set up has worked best for people.

@CRJL you've one up on me mate - I did not even know this thing had two modes!!!
BTW, why is that? Someone mentioned somewhere a corporate password - how to enter this & why would I want it.
BTW CRJL, I agree with you, these little devices are very confusing, espcially because the front end software (WM5) is soooooooo labourious!
Andy

when you hard reset the thing. after all the rom stuff loads up it gives you the choice of basic set up or corporate. it selects basic automatically after 20secs.
if you tell it corporate then you have to put the code 0506 in. this the uninstalls some stuff off the exec. you loose mms and all the gprs an 3g settings for conecting to the net. (i don't know what else it does) some of the people in the forums say it makes the exec faster. I could not really notice any difference.
you loose a few applications as well.
until I learn more I'm staying in basic.
I find these forums are for more advanced users so the simple questions tend to get missed. (im talking abot my first post) still not had a reply answering my questions

CRJL said:

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
for this you should first make a hard reset (carefull, with hard reset you will loose all data!) by pressing both app buttons and reset at the same time.
When it starts up, after the installation countdown shows up you should make a reset to stop the automatic setup.
Now you have a machine, which is only basic setup. See how you like the things in there.
After you now enough about this, you can make same hard reset again and start the corporate setup. Then see, how you like this setup.
After this do same with basic setup.
In total you have then an idea, what you can have with the 3 different setups.
Now you can decide, which of the 3 setups you want to start with. After this, you should read the posts about Extended Rom, how to unlock it, which programs are in there etc. Then you get an idea for example how to install some software in the basic setup.
Also, you can add some programs from other Roms. For example I have an MDA Pro and I added the I-Mate Backgammon game to my setup.
Try out and see what customizations you want and need, which you do not want.
CRJL said:

Click to expand...

Basically, this does not really make difference. Forget about reg changes. Performance depends on running programs and setup - see above.
As far as I know, o2 installs some app in the basic setup, which makes the device slow. As I never tried o2 rom, I do not know, if this is true.

read here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=31697
here also I recommend to try out the software and just keep the ones you like.
In total I would recommend you to create a directory on your PC where you put all the setup and cab files, which you want to have in your final setup. After trying out all, make a hard reset again and install the files from this directory. This prevents any junks to be left behind from your previous tries.

I think, you get more problems than it helps. Some programs appear too small on the screen. And when you make a Romupdate this does not work anymore.
I recommend not to install any VGA Patches. Instead just set the text size to more small and search in this forum for some registry hacks to change system font etc. and see if you like it, when the font is more small (this is good for Opera or PIE as you can view complete page!)

Nice reply, thanks mate!
erm
yes
ahem
erm
what are the ><ahem, ahem>< "app buttons"
Andy (thicky wicky Blacky wacky Adder)

thank you. I will give the 3 setups a go. I did read that if you soft reset before the counter that video calling does not work.
will give it a go and see what happens I'm sure there will be a cab file on here to sort it out.
anyone wishing to add any pearls of wisdom fee free. I'm learning more and more all the time.

app buttons: the buttons on the keyboard, which have changing functions. these functions are shown at the bottom of the screen. These buttons can be found to the right and left of the red and green call buttons on the keyboard.
about video calling: yes, this feature is installed after you switch on first your device. it is activated with one cab file. If you can find out which cab file this is, you can install it manually in the basic setup.

Overclock Capability

Hi,
I overclocked my Prophet about a week ago to 301MHz and have it seems to be very stable - i've had no freezing the whole time whilst browsing the web, send emails and watch streaming video via orb. I just wanted to know if anyone has been able to push the Prophet any further to get an idea about its overclock capability. I know the phone in most cases remains working if you clock it to high but my Tornado seems to have slowed down after I overclocked it too much and I don't want that to happen with this one aswell.
Thanks

The highest speed I can OC my prophet to stably is 286. The chips all behave slightly differently so one may clock higher than others...

cool thanks!!

I advise you not to overclock it that much. At least not in a regular basis. It is a good idea tu use the scalar mode. You can find that setting on BatteryStatus plugin.

someone can tell me the name of a overcloker ?
id proved 2 types of programs (turbotry,other) with no results.
anyone knows a cool program tooverclock a Prophet - qtek200 and WM5 ?
thanks a lot

Try Battery Status, I've been using this for a very long long time with many cool features other than overclocking......trust me and try it....http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=270751

Does anyone know if batterystatus is available for WM6.1 standard on tornado?

the wm5.0 version works perfectly for me!

thread closed after request by thread starter.

Overclocking the Treo Pro is possible!!

Ok, Before I start, I'd just like to note that this is my very first Thread on XDA, so if this is the "wrong section" and what not, sorry.
Now, If somebody has already figured this out and has a source, please direct me towards it, because I simply couldn't find it, Googling for my life! But I actually figured out a way myself and thought I'd share it in case this is still unheard of.
It's quite simple really, from my research on the CPUs that are in these HTC Devices, I figured MSM7kCpuSpeed should do it, but whenever I adjusted the clock in there, the phone froze, even under clocking froze the phone, then after toying around with other clocking programs, I discovered the phone apparently does some kind of auto CPU Scaling CONSTANTLY, so I looked for a way to disable this, and found Pocket Hack Master. and to my surprise, it worked! MSM7kCpuSpeed no longer froze the phone with the Auto Scaling disabled!
So here's how to in short:
1. Download and install Pocket Hack Master, and under File > Edit > Settings > Advanced. Tick "Disable Device Built-in Scaling" then tap "Ok" and then "Minimize" Make sure Pocket Hack Master DOES NOT CLOSE! Keep it open and MINIMIZED.
2. Download and install MSM7kCpuSpeed, Overclock and enjoy!
I've only gotten my Treo Pro up to about 730mhz without any crashing. but this actually works! I haven't tested with some kind of Benchmark, but I tested with many different emulators, and they are indeed much faster!
And that's it! Enjoy!

Hi there, I tried your overclocking solution but I got a problem, when I try to run MSM7kCpuSpeed I get an error message and the application does not open. I have Pocket Hack Master running with the mentioned setting activated.
Any ideas? I installed MSM7CpuSpeed v2. Looks like the device is not supported from what I have read in the MSM7CpuSpeed thread. I have the unlocked GSM Treo Pro. Perhaps you are running the CDMA device?
Would love to overclock my Treo Pro.

Yea, I do have the CDMA version, but I don't see why that would make the program not work... Unless the GSM Version really has a different CPU? and not just clocked at a different level.
Maybe you need Compact Framwork 3.5 or higher? I dont know if its needed to run MSM7kCpuSpeed, but give that a check.

Both the CDMA and GSM versions of the Treo Pro have the Qualcomm MSM7201 chipset. The difference is the clock speed; the CDMA runs at 528MHz, while the GSM runs at 400MHz.

Thanks for the info.... hummm, I just checked and my TP has CF 3.5 installed. Maybe it has to do with my ROM. I am using Mordaz 6.5 21884 in Spanish. Are you in 6.5 or maybe 6.1? Perhaps the language?

I'm using a 6.1 - 21057 rom from RaiderFan, English.
Well, I really don't know what to tell you. this really does work... for me at least...
... Hmmm, I don't know if this could have something to do with it, but I am using RealVGA at 96 DPI.

I'm using the same rom but in Dutch. Anyways I also get the same failure report.
Well I'm going to instal another rom today, so I will let you know if that is a game changer.
edit: Tried with the 21903 and 28.... (both 6.5) but still nothing and the same error.

I do got a question regarding the battery. It seems that the apps are really draining my battery, do you also notice that or is it just me?

Im using PHM (Pocket Hack Master) Version 4.36.062, Msm7kCpuSpeed Version 2.
As for battery, I've been able to keep my Treo Pro steady at 768mhz, and theres only a very small decrease in battery life.
Hmmmm.... You know, I had discovered 2 different ways to overclock the Treo Pro, I didn't even bother mentioning the other method, because its a bit tricky and requires you to be fast, but it seems more reliable, however it only has 1 clock choice and thats 768mhz.
well, here it is: You need to download NueOverclockTest (Google NueOverclockTest, wont let me post links)
After you install it, theres 2 ways to do this, if your lucky, you can just open PHM to stop the CPU scaling, then just go ahead and use NueOverclockTest to overclock to 768 Mhz. However for me, after I did that a few times, it didn't seem to work anymore untill i started doing it the tricky way, witch goes like this.
First, you have to have PHM CLOSED, then you gotta have a way to open PHM real fast, either by setting one of your keys to open it, or whatever, next what you do is this, open up NueOverclockTest and click "ok" twice till it gets to the "Your current clock speed is xxx.xx Mhz, set clock speed to 768.00 Mhz?", when it gets to that menu, sit and wait for about 10 seconds, whats happening at this point is your Treo Pro's CPU is scaling a bit for whatever reason, and by waiting 10 seconds, it should scale to 400Mhz and sit there, if you click "Ok" while it isn't scaled to 400mhz, the phone will just freeze, now, IMMEDIATELY after you click "ok", open PHM as fast as possible, otherwise before it can open and stop the scaling, your phone will just reset back down to 400mhz...
there is 1 problem though, these instructions are for my Treo Pro witch is clocked at 528, as you already know.... I don't know if its the big jump in CPU clock that freezes the phone, but if is, jumping from 400 to 768 might still be too big of a jump and will just freeze....
now, if it does work for you, the way I check to make sure I did it fast enough, is to use Nue Clock Control to see if it says "768mhz". I also use Nue Clock Control to clock my phone back down, Because closing PHM and letting it scale back down automatically only froze my phone. Letting my phone go to sleep also freezes it.
Well, thats it! Good luck!

xXHawkeyeXx, thank you so much for the tutorial!
But it is probably the device itself. None of the hacks worked for the GSM version, I even downgraded to wm 6.1 but nothing.
Still happy with 6.1 though =)

Awww, but we can't just give up there...
Its been confirmed that both devices use the same exact CPU, just clocked to a different default level. The oddest thing is, there's no reason Msm7kCpuSpeed shouldn't be starting up, I'm about ready to hard reset my phone and starting clean to see what exactly it was I did without noticing to get Msm7kCpuSpeed to start...
It would be a darn shame, I love the Treo Pro, and want other fellow Treo Pro owners to experience the joy of overclocking.
Yea, 6.1 does seem to run better IMO.
...well, if I can convince my self to try a hard reset, I'll let it be known, just that it would be a lot of work setting my phone up again.

Hi guys, I have not been able to try another ROM yet, I will give it a try in the weekend.
Ruben__ about the ROMS you tried, were they in english? Sometimes developers create their apps in english and do not support another languages...
Edit: looks like a couple of posts in the MSM7K... thread point to the Treo Pro.

Yeah, but it looks like the guy in that first post has his info a bit backwards... The CDMA Treo Pro isn't the one with the 400 Mhz clock.
At any rate, looking forward to hear how that trying a different ROM goes. Perhaps it was that all along since you both weren't using English ROMs.

I'll be trying this on my unlocked GSM Treo Pro, with stock English ROM build 19216.1.0.5, this weekend and report back my findings.

Just tried with 6.5 21884 Mord4z ROM in english (GSM unlocked Treo Pro) but unfortunately the same error message when opening MSM7... maybe other ROMS might work. I hope someone else has better luck than me!

That is some real Palm Treo Bro-ttitude!
But seriously don't! It is a pain to set things up again.
@ guilledil
I have tried different roms and nothing worked for me but I did find a program which is not that great but it does something. It's called 'speedbooster' and it doesn't really 'overclock' the phone but let you prioritize the cpu for program's. It will also let you improve the video speed but it's not that noticeable and it really drains my battery.
I think we gsm'ers are stuck @ 400 mhz

MSM failed to run on my stock unlocked GSM Treo Pro. It complained about the Compact Framework being too old on my device.

@hockeyfan: I think stock GSM does not have CF installed by default. In Mord4z 6.5 21884 ROM it comes installed. You could try installing CF 3.5 but it is not working for me in wm6.5.
@ruben__: I have been using Speedbooster for quite some time now and it does what it says... it is not overclocking but it is something. Guess other Treo Pro owners could try it. Well, we tried it but as you said, we GSM'ers only get 400 mhz!!

there's no way to overclock treo pro.i've tried many ways,but all lose.
