Cell Info on Wizard ?

Hello there,
Did any of you guys try to get hold of an application or a tweak to have kjam/qtek9100 display the Cell Info ? I have been searching for a very long time to get hold of something but didnt work. The best I could get so far is a today plugin to show the network provider it is connected to and a graph with network strength.
Any inputs will be appreciated.

I think Nice Track will do what your looking for. The newest version does work fine on WM5. Here's the change log.
NiceTrack v1.5
Here is the latest version of NiceTrack.
http://www.nicecuppa.com/download/NiceTrack_Release_1_5.zip
This will hopefully sort out the instability problems people have been experiencing with Windows Mobile 2005.
Also in this release: -
* Show picture event added
* Removal of NiceRIL.dll, communication with GSM Modem now takes place in C# code
* Ability to show signal strength in dBM
Let me know how you all get on
NiceTrack v1.4
Another version of NiceTrack for you. This release should get rid of the mysterious blank message box.
http://www.nicecuppa.com/download/NiceTrack_Release_1_4.zip
It seems that my NiceRIL.dll really hates Windows Mobile 5, so I am going to rewrite it over the next few weeks. So please bear with me!
NiceTrack v1.3b
New version of NiceTrack available. This hopefully addresses the issues people are experiencing with Windows Mobile 2005.
http://www.nicecuppa.com/download/NiceTrack_Release_1_3.zip
Sorry if you're having problems, I'll try and get to the bottom of it ASAP.

Nicetrack on my Wizard
Nicetrack wasnt so "Nice" to my phone. It ran, but very very slowly. Maybe a little more dev needed.

[release] Freeware - Speakerphone v1.0.001

Speakerphone v1.0 is a simple application for the 2003 devices.
It was created to materialize some of our users requests, that descriebed the problems they were facing in using the standard speakerphone toggle (pressing and holding the green button).
All that this application does is to allow you to easily activate the speakerphone while in a phone call.
Enjoy using it as its Freeware! :wink:
Here is the link where you can download, comment, post ideas, etc:

Hey,
Will this work on WM5 / HTC Uni?
Also, is it possible to have an application that will automatically use the loudspeaker if the phone is connected to mains power supply, and not use it if on battery?
Probably not... but don't ask.....
Cheers!
Hey thanks for your input.
Its a simple app but im glad that you have ideas for it.
I have to release a WM2005 version as users requested.
The thing with the power supply is nice, and its easy to do so why not?
I think ill need to also add a settings pannel for all these options.
Just one think, there are lots of ideas, but you should add them in one place or else...i might forget some of them. try following the feedback line where i originally posted the speakerphone.
I guess ill have some time for it next weekend, so its plenty of time to gather some ideas.
The original feedback line was started on:
http://www.teksoftco.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=85
and continued on:
http://teksoftco.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=88
Ill do my best to implement all the ideas posted there (the list grows :lol: )
Cheers,
Radu
Hey, this sounds great. I'd never had a problem with the green button method until yesterday. After going through a call answering system and then getting into a queue I thought I'll put it on the speakerphone while I wait, but no the phone tried dialing 021.
So, no WM5 version jet, or is there?
A newer version of the Speakerphone is ready (v1.0.002).
Here is the direct link:

How to switch Radio ON/OFF

Does anyone know how to write an application to switch radio on/off i PPC WM5?
Can you send me source ([email protected])? It could be in C++/C# or even worse
I was looking through google but nothing was helpful enough.
Thanks!
Danny, I'm still at work right now, no source code with me. I can try to send you some code a little later, subject to my brain functioning. If I don't send it tonight, please PM me tomorrow.
Basically, from memory, you have to set up a TAPI setup and toggle the radio mode there. Can't remember the details off hand though Later...
V
...originally it is meant to put audio continiously to your headphone by BT... but you can also use them offcourse as a shortcut to toggle on/off gprs, ir , bt.
Put the exe to anyplace and change shortcuts with total commander for changing the path within the files....
With thanks to VIJAY555...
Thanks Krinkiespijer!
... but what I'm waiting for is source code.
I have found tel.on-off_100.exe application which switches radio on/off but I have to write it in my own app!
Danny
Lost all day and still don't know how to do it....
Guys, I should clarify for Danny, that he's looking for a managed code solution. I've given him a pointer in native C++, but can't help with managed.
Danny, I suggest you look over http://www.opennetcf.org/ and then follow the functions I pointed you towards.
Basically you need to get a TAPI line and change the equipment state.
V
It's not that I need only managed code solution. I prefer it but native code is also enough. I was trying even understand it in native code but even msdn documentation is not enough to get by without complete source code.
Even though thanks for bothering
Hi guys, this is kinda OT here, but may i ask if there is a way to turn the Radio ON/OFF thru registry? Thanks
..no, you can only choose between always on or apps depending.
With next key key in register you can change it:
HKLM\CommConnMgr\Providers\{7c4b7a38-5ff7-4bc1-80f6-5da7870bb1aa}\connections\t-mobile]
always on dword=0=off dword=1=on
t-mobile is the name of your internetconnection

How to enable Bluetooth/Wifi from Today screen?

Hi folks,
Is it possible to have wifi and bluetooth enabled with a tap from the homescreen instead of having to use stupid comm manager for the wizard? I searched around everywhere in this discussion board, but search came up empty. Forgive me if this question has already been asked.
Many thanks.....
Best way I know to do this is use PhenAlarm (google it), takes up a little today screen real estate but its a great little app.
thanks...
i already have that software (phonealarm) and i managed to find just one skin that suits me (i.e. has bluetooth, wifi, missed calls, voicemail, however its missing the headset icon). anyhow, thank you for the suggestion, i was hoping that was a hack to it. For eg, treo 700w does have a bluetooth toggle icon on the homescreen by default.
see my thread over at hofo.

thank youuuu

hey,
thanks buddy. excatly what i was looking for. now, i just need another switch for wifi, any luck on finding that?
bittermon,
I tried your program and the bluetooth toggle works perfectly. Unfortunately the wifi toggle does not. When i try using the pre-made shortcut, it says "no compatible wifi found." When i make my own icon it doesn't do anything at all.
btw i have the cingular 8102 with the latest official rom. I also have wireless g mode activated. Any ideas?

Problem with WiFi

If I press wlan button in Comm Manager than WiFi should be ON but it is not. I did use some different roms but still nothing. Somebody know what to do ?
settings-connections-wireless lan - there is only message:
Wireless LAN is OFF.Turn on Wireless LAN.
It does not work. Please help me.
Go back to wm5. If your lucky it might come back. The more I dig through here the more I see people with wifi problems after flashing. You might be out of luck
HOWEVER
I noticed under WM6 the bubble that pops up when you click on the wifi tower ALWAYS says 'turn on wifi'
Good luck!
Same problem with my WI-FI, Not working please help!!!!
Hi All. I am facing the same problem with my WI-FI as Vomithaus is having. Whenever I try to to connect to WIFI from Commmanager, it tries to and then to show disconnected. When i go to settings> Wireless LAN, it asks me to "Configure Network Adaptors", and lists all the adaptors and going into them asks about the ip settings and stuff like that. By the Way I Bricked my phone once and then i flashed with T-Mobile Ship WM6.0 RUU for the WING. And I strongly suspect that the registry setting are not right or the Radio ROM is F***ed up. Can any knowledgeable person help me please? I would greatly appreciated any help.
Same problem with my WI-FI, Not working please help!!!!
This is the addeneum to the last post. The last remaining screenshot for the above post. The last screen shot of the "Wi-Fi Status" in the "Settings > Connection", gives me an option to "Turn on Wi-Fi" but toggeling it results in nothing. Thank You everybody for your time and consideration.
It might help us to figure out how this happened too. I bought the EXEC off of ebay and it was like this from the get go. The previous owner flashed it to wm6 about 1 month ago, but said it was working fine... all he did was hard reset to get rid of the personal information. I want to believe him, but there are a few people on here complaining of flashing the exec and losing wifi. (even the official rom from O2).
Flashing COULD have damaged the transmitter, but it seems more likely that a setting is wrong somewhere (especially since there is a slider bar for WIFI battery vs performance).
This is good news (somewhat), but the bad news is that if there is one, no one knows about it. I have messed around in the registry (there were some promising entries related to POWER), but nothing that even showed a response. I found the entry that connects to the slider bar, but PERFORMANCE = zero, so there is nowhere to go there but WORSE.
This really sucks, is all I can say. I blew $500 on something that is useless (well... not useless, but no WIFI? WHY COULD IT HAVE NOT BEEN BLUETOOTH!)
Another step I have taken is contacting PPC Tech's via email and asking them if they have any idea how to repair it, and how much $$$
I'll keep you informed.
Can you tell me if yours EVER worked, and if so, when it stopped?
I just looked closer at your screenshots.... Do you have a WIFI card? (it say's 'adapter').
No, I dont have a WIFI card but this is way how windows handles all is peripherals (services), as an add-on card. just like you laptop.
Guys, There is a registry fix for this problem.

I am afraid Ron that this is not a case as suggested in Beowulf6's solution. If it is the solution I dont know how to exactly implement it. But I am posting here the exact registry key screenshot for you guys to take a look also. I can't see and TNETWLN1 or TNET12345 key here in my device. I still think it has to something with the registry. Can any one here with a T-Mobile WING verify and post their screen shot? or maybe send me a registry backup to compare with? It would be really grateful it some does that. Thanks everybody for a few seconds to read this.
In my herald i can't see TNETWLN1 or TNETWLN12345 too.
I did use Mobile Registry Editor for that , what you guys are useing?
(sorry for my English, if you dont understand me just tell me please)
Look at the screenshots, there a Reg Folder with the name WLAN, open it, and then open the key with all the numbers and letters. At the end of that line is a code. TNETWLAN1 is what it should be for the Herald.

It is like Bio88 says.
You are already on the right track... click on WLAN and you will find the key.
Change the value of the key into TNETWLAN1
Done

Hi Please look at my screen shot again clearly. I did post what is inside the WLAN folder. There are only two keys :
1) (Default) \Windows\ctlpnl.exe
2) CmdLine cplmain17
I still can't figure where is the key with numbers and letters. Sorry If I am a bit dumb or wrong. Thanks.
it is possible if you use the default Commanager that you dont have this registry key.
I dont know if it helps if you create it on your own.
but for me where i installed a different commanager, the Key was there and i edited it for the wlan button.
My Tmo Wing has "TIACXWLN1" in that registry key.
Do those changes apply to the herald and the Wing interchangeably?
