Is there a way to turn it off at def time and turn it on again
Not free, but check out SKSchema:
http://www.s-k-tools.com/skschema/skschema.html
However, you can do it with various other apps if you can edit the notification queue. Eg, memmaid will let you do this.

Editing notification isn't enough
According to dinarsoft (makers of memmaid) there is no facility to create a repeating notification; you have to have a notification that both does something and writes a new notification when it does so. This isn't possible by just editing a notification (they say; I'm no expert and I would really like to set a program to run automatically at, say 1AM).
try PocketZenPhone, search to download in google, hope this info helpful.
PocketZenPhone looks very cool
but I just paid for SKSchema after establishing that it would do what I needed. I'm alsol happy with SPB Diary, which provides similar functionality in putting useful programs on the today screen. If at some point I become dissatisfied with SKSchema, PZP seems like a wonderful program with a lot of good Today screen functionality. Kind of like SKSchema and SPB Diary in one.

Why dont my programs close when I press the X at the top right? This is very annoying. I have to go to my running programs and close them manually, grrr. Anyway, is there a way to change the default behaviour so that the programs do close? Or is there a utility to do so?
Thanks
Allan
it's always been that way with pocketpc / windows ce
it's ment to be that way
pocket plus let you do it different but with some applications it mess up pretty bad if they are closed like that
like if you write an sms and send it and then close outlook before the sms is sendt 100%
Use Tascal Close all application from this site.

Dear "allanmb", try spb Pocket Plus 2.0 or 2.1, it has the "close" button feature, in addition to other useful features, like:
Today plug-in.
Short cuts to programs
Drag-and-drop in Today plug-in
Saving webpages and pictures in PIE
New window support in PIE.
Taskbar battery indicator (in the top)!
Extended themes
Storage card formatting
ZIP support.
"Folder Up" button added.
And other features.
Any way, it is a good tool.
Another good software that has this feature, is Battery PackPro from Omega One, it has alos "close" button features, Today Plug In, Battery indicator (nice one)!, and other features as well!
Both are good.
Wizbar advance also allow program closure
Hello,
Another program I use a lot is Wizbar advance currently at v. 1.3.2.2 from Lakeridge software (it's freeware).
It's also skinnable, shows battery/ memory in top bar etc.
If you do choose to use it though, watch out for it hiding your notifications eg. sms etc. - it only shows a static notification icon. I would recommend PocketZenPhone running along side it. (Also freeware, available in these forums). PZP allows profiles like the nokia phones for meeting, silent, pager etc., but also allows huge customisation of the phone within these profiles - including changing the way the leds flash when there is a sms or message waiting!
PS - There should be a wizbar advance for phone edition PPC soon, and they are currently beta testing wizbar advance version 2, so hopefully some of the issues will be cleared up.

Hi all,
I have been using PPC Profiles for some time now- I have recently discovered the PhoneAlarm app...
I love all the features of PhoneAlarm- especially the repeating alarm on sms etc.
I don't really need many of the display items of the PhoneAlarm today bar; what I do want is all the Profiles listed side by side (as with PPC Profiles).
As PhoneAlarm is generally better- is it possible to have the above feature in PhoneAlarm?
So, all I really need is an app that has repeating alarms and profiles displayed side by side. Even an individual app that does the repeating alarm thing would be great.
Thanks.
Hi SH500
I currently use PhoneAlarm, but check out SuperAlert for PPCPhone edition. You should be able to find it at www.pocketfillers.com This is just a repeating alarms app that runs in background, accessible from a icon in the system tray. You can use in conjunction with your current profile software, or try the excellent PocketZenPhone for profile functionality. PZP is available in today screen and system tray versions, so you can keep your today screen really clean with this and SuperAlert.
Hope that helps
Regards
Chris
Nice one- i'll have to look into those software titles.
Thanks.
Phonealarm Profile switching
you can use the buttons of the navigation pad (left-right) on your macigcan to switch between the profiles. this is just like having the profiles side by side. first klick down until the phonealarm is marked, then use right or left to switch.
Orlando- a great tip- even for many others I should imagine.
Thanks.
Okay, the Prophet is a great machine. I am getting used to WM5 and like it a lot. The Prophet is fast enough for normal business use, so no complaints.
I do have a wee list of things I would like to be able to do. Some might already have been cracked, so any help would be fab. (These also apply to Wizard and other WM5 devices.)
1) Button Lock
Pressing the power locks the buttons. All is well until you get a notification and then the buttons come alive and your pocket can take over and start dialling people!
Is there any software / reg fix to require a key combination. (I know about the code option, but that is tricky without the stylus.)
Good old Menu * on the Nokia is great!
2) Network info
Is there a simple and clean Today plugin / element that will show you the network name and the signal strength? I know there is commercial stuff out there, but I want something that is in keeping with the regular Today stuff and looks like it came with the machine!
3) Upcoming Events
Can you limit the number in the list. I like to know the next four appointments, but when I have a busy day (!) a scroll bar appears and looks ugly!!
As you can see, I am not that fussy!!
Any ideas appreciated.
1. Mort Saver, get it from www.sto-helit.de
2. DkToday, use the search to find it.
BTW, MortSaver also shows phone signal, but no operator name and only when activated. DKToday shows it in your today screen

A freeware Calendar+ will definitely help. Download it here: http://mohairsofa.com/content/downloads/calplus.exe
Use the little padlock icon on your today screen to lock the phone.
I've been searching and came up with nothing although I am sure it has been covered. I'm looking for a program that will automatically change my phone from vibrate to ring based on the time of day. Thanks.
Something like SPB Phone Suite or Phonealarm allow you to set time-based profiles.
Might be what you are looking for?
Ie, I have it set so it goes vibrate from 9am-5pm and Ring+Vibrate the other hours.
Hope that helps =)
Yea that would be perfect, which one do you use out of curiosity?
Im currently using SPB Phone Suite.
Serves me better at the moment between the both of them.
Still trialing both really, just to test the functionality.
I used to play with rlToday great today plugin and have many skin for it. I liked my rlToday skins change based on time of day. So I wrote simple mortscript which run on specific time of day (setted in setting.ini file) and change my today screen plus ringer volume, vibrate, backlight, flight mode on/off!
I think if you were familiar with mortscript your can modify my script (see attachment) and create your own AutoRingToneChange
PLEASE READ MY .mscr CODES AND MODIFY THEM BEFORE RUNNIG THEM!
AutoSkin.zip ==> after set you desired times run autoskin.mscr
Office.zip ==> rlToday skin, copy it to your rlToday skin dir.

Hello
The Mega is my first smartphone, and thanks to xda I found lots of usefull info and apps to customize it just like i want
I think now it's time to share some apps I did mostly for my own use, but maybe usefull for some other people.
Well, here are two simple applications:
RotateMon
- The first, "rotatemon" (stupid name I know... ) is designed to run invisible in background and simply rotate the screen to landscape if one the following apps are launched: sms /mms ; opera mobile 10 and notes (notes.exe)
When you exit the app, the screen is restored to previous orientation. (meaning if you already are in landscape, you will stay in landscape)
I did this app because i couldn't found something doing this the way i want. I know there are mortscript scripts to do this, but not exactly like this. (and there's a problem with tmail.exe with this method, because mortscripts checks if a windows exist, but sometimes tmail.exe runs in background with the same window title "SMS / MMS" as the active window, so we must check if it is really active or in background...)
I know it's possible too to assign a long key press to the action "rotate sceeen", but I was tired of long pressing this key everytime i launched opera or the sms program...
Well just try it if you want, and let me know what you think about it, it's very usefull for me, maybe for you too
You can launch it at startup like I did (for example with sktools or something equivalent).
Please understand that I did it for myself, so it's "customized" for me (the apps that are monitored to trigger the rotation). If it is usefull for someone else I'll be happy to provide a more "user friendly" version (with the ability to configure what apps are monitored for example). Don't hesitate to ask
StayAlive -update 28/12/2010: now with a nice interface, install cab, more user friendly -
Another very simple program, designed to keep wifi "alive" even when the device is in sleep mode. It's a simple switch: ON/OFF, based on the registry key Comm\BCMSDDHD1\Parms\HTCKeepWifiOnWhenUnattended , you can switch the "StayAlive state" when wifi is on or off, doesn't matter, and the state is keep after a soft reset.
This tool can the display alive too, it provides a simple switch On/OFF to keep the display alive (doesn't prevent locking, well sometimes it locks and sometimes not, don't really know why..., but the screen stay on). Please note that the screen will not stay on at full backlight level, it will stay on at the "lower" backlight level (to prevent too much power drain...)
Ps:Sorry for my poor english

You just have to delete the program folder. If it's running, kill it with a taskmanager before of course (or soft reset). If you put it in your startup, remove it before, then kill the process or soft reset, then delete the folder.
No modifications are made to the system

Hi seb3773 I like you rotatemon very much. It is what I need, but since I have used Swype I had to turn it off. When the screen rotate my swype keyboard don't rescale well and the screen is cut out on te right side.
I would be grateful if you could disable sms rotation in your program?
or maybe some "user friendly" version above-mentioned?
I'm proud if it is usefull for you too A more user friendly version is coming soon, as i'm actually unemployed , i've plenty of time to do it. I intend to program a configuration interface with some nice features. It will be ready in 1/2 days
Great work
good works, man.
I wonder whether you can add-in one more switch not to connect 3G or smthng.
I'm having problem with that. When i accidentally press on browser icon, it start connecting to 3G network and i got to pay data charges.
It would be good if we can turn off. Thanks
