Hi,
Does anyone know if such program exist?
Or, any know how to run Activesync via bluettoth in easier way than tap on Start>Activesync>Tools>Connect via bluetooth (that's 4 taps).
Regards,
Arto.

You can use Mortscript to whip up a little cute script that does the 4 taps for you with a single tap. Google for Mortscript (or Mortscripts) and download it, it is freeware and well documented.
I was also looking for something that will make this quicker. Thanks psych0t1c.
Thanks psych0t1c.
I try using Mortscript, follow instruction, put the .mrsc on \windows folder, put a link on \windows\start up folder, but without success.
Here is the .mrcs text:
Run "\windows\sync"
MouseClick "ActiveSync", 10, 300
MouseClick "ActiveSync", 10, 285
Close "ActiveSync"
Exit
Please Mortscript expert give me advise...
Thx.

What is going wrong? Does nothing happen at all? Some thoughts on the fly:
-Extension should be mscr not mrcs, but maybe that's a typo.
-There should be a extension to sync. Use "sync.lnk"
-Give a little time to start the program (use "sleep 500")
-Give a slight time to rollout the menu after first tap ("sleep 100")
-Minimize instead of close. Don't know how MortScript actually works - if it is a real "close" or not.
-Maybe it is also a bad idea to put it in autorun before you tested it. Could be that during boot sequence the Script is the first to execute while most of the system is still in a less than ready state. Might be better to start it by hand when using it or to measure your booting time. So if the entire device takes 18seconds from the disappearing of the splash screen to full service (you see your today screen and no "waiting" symbol) you could just go and give the script an initial delay (sleep 25000) to wait 25 seconds before it starts out.
Test it out and lemme know what exactly is going wrong.
Still didn't work overhere, but her's something better :
AutSyncME :
AutoSyncME is a FREE software which connects your device automaticly to your computer via bluetooth connection with a click of a button.
Why do I need AutoSyncME?
Until now, in order to sync your device with the computer via BT, you needed to do the following: 1. Press on start.
2. Press on ActiveSync.
3. Press on tools.
4. Press on "connect via bluetooth"
Quite a hassle...Isnt it?
What does ActiveSyncME does?
Just download the file (cab) attached below, transfer it to your device, and double click it to install the software.
The software will be installed in the start menu - programs folder.
Want to make it a lot easier?
Go to "settings" on your device - "buttons" and assign a hardware button to this file.
Now, every time you want sync your device with your computer, just press the hardware key.

We need program that can make our life easier.
Hopefully you can write a program to do bluetooth (or any kind of connection) activesync in predefined period time (or in interval time). But most important is reliability.
Thanks!

please suggest me some tools which realise "autostart" for my magician. The tool should run a program when i turn the magicion on.
Thanks!
Check out sktools. That'll do it I think.

use MemMaid. really usefull tool
Thanks!
Maybe somebody knows also a small (freeware) program?
try search at http://pocketpcfreewares.com or http://www.freewareppc.com maybe there's some. anyway, you can allways add a shortcut to app in the windows\startup dir (use totalcommander for this).
@dddrko:
as far as i understand, the startup folder starts only after reset, not at powert button...
This is a nice tool: Event driven application/command execute !!
http://www.kent7.com/holly/wakeapp/
It can start an application or run a command at about any 'event' = Meaning, whataver happens :
On a specific time or when ;
PC card changed
othe IR device discovered
Network (dis)connected
AC Power On/Off
full device data restore
RS232 conection made
data sync finisched
system time changed
timezone changed
Device wakes up
Haven't tested it yet, but looks mighty powerfull !
Good spot. These are standard events for the PPC, so SKTools, MemMaid and the lovely WakeApp should support them all.

could you please tell what exaxtly is working? Events,timer, ...?
OK, other way,
Example :

Also found :

On= 32837
(Resumes playing WMP after power on)
I guess adding a key in ether wil get you what you want also...
@jpiek: thanks, i will try it
About memmaid - i dont think that this tool can add entries to the notification queue...
Background: i have an old Magician (with long white beard), and i want to use it as remote control with Salling Clicker.
This program uses bluetooth and every time i turn on the device, it should start Salling Clicker (or bring to foreground) and reconnect the bluetooth connection (so my girlfriend can focus on what she wants to hear or see...)
i tried three items and all worked:
event by power on
event by changing sd card
timer

Repeat events?
With both memmaid and wakeapp, I can get a program to run once on a timer, but what I want to do is get the program to repeat daily at the same time. Memmaid seems to lack the ability to choose repeat; wakeapp shows "no end date" when one looks at the entry, but the notification disappears after it runs.
Memmaid can't do create recurring notification
I have verified with dinarsoft that memmaid can't put a repeating notification to run a program. The problem, they say, is that there is no facility to repeat and the way other programs do it is to write a few days worth and when that gets close to the end, write a few more.
Given this, wakeapp almost certainly can't either, since it seems to just be a "notification writer".
Can SKSchema run a program at the same time every day? An if so, can it then minimize the program?
Yes,
SKSchema can do repeating program runs, even do it only on Tuesdays or on the first of the month.
guyz this was requested by flavopic and others..so i wrote a small script to for it
Instructions :
1. First of all install Mort Script from HERE To you device
2. Place the Both the Applications as they are attached in the following locations (dnt change their names)
the script will look in the following location :
" \Storage Card\Oxios\Close App.exe "
" \Storage Card\Oxios\Hibernate.exe "
3. Then place this in the startup folder (if you want it to start automatically)..or you can also bind it to any H/W key
Please not that i've set the timer to 5000000
If you get any error please Post
I've just edit it because I've an Italian device (so the directories' name are different...)
When this program runs automaticcaly, how to make it not show the window which appeare?
I mean... Is there a way to hide that window?
Or something that hit automatically the "OK" button?
@ather90: There is a problem with the solution you posted. It needs the script to be running always, which has the following drawbacks:
1. Consumes a lot of resources
2. If the script's process is killed somehow (e.g. WM may automatically kill a process smtimes if a new process is opened), then the running of app stops.
Moreover, you need to install the complete scripting engine to do a small task.
I can suggest an alternative in terms of my program Shantztodaychanger.
Though it is an app to change themes/wallpapers at set intervals, it also runs exe's. And to use it as a pure exe runner, just use the "mask" option, leave the mask field blank, and choose the duration of time for mask to cover all 24 hours.
It runs only when needed, hence consumes very less resources, and is pretty small as compared to installing MortScript. And is also more reliable in terms of execution.
@flaviopac: There is indeed a solution, but that would require some custom software or a little bit of trick . After executing the program, we can wait for a few seconds, then find he window of oxios and kill it. This can either be done in the program itself, or there is another way. You can club the mortscript method with my program. If there is way to send a message to the window thru mortscript, we can execute a mortscript thru my program, which in turn first executes oxios and then sends the kill/ok message to it. This way, it will also not consume resources unnecessarily.

Anyway... I don't know how to make a mortscript file hit the OK button or close that window...
So, how can we do that?
@shantz..thanks for the tips..actually if i had time i would have built an app for it in C++...but i didnt..i will look for something which presses the OK button automatically

This program is an evolution of the first I made. It will route the audio to the earpiece when an certain program is running.
I put the program here because I have test it in wizard, if people test this in others phones and it works, please post here and maybe move this this thread to an more "generic" forum.
the program MUST be under "\($program files)\audioswitch" folder, you must unzip the contents to this folder.
the configuration file (command.txt) is under this format:
1000
skype
fring
etc
the first line is the delay(in miliseconds) in witch the program will "look" if a program in the list is in the top level window, faster phone, smaller delays, I recommend 1000 ms.
the next 20 lines are the programs you want the audio to be routed to the earpiece(max 20 lines for now).
Again the program is under the "do it on your own risk" and "I am not responsible for anything" licence. And,of course, it is free!! Do not sell it!
It is manly intended for little expert users, as it is still in "beta" fase, hehehe.
How it works:
the program runs in an eternal loop and look for the title of the current window that is displayed for the user in a time interval.
When the program mach the title window with one of the names user configured it it will switch the audio, when the program is not running anymore, the audio will swich back.
Do not launch two or more instances of the program at the same time, could really mess things up. -- se the forum (thanks tucahara)
To stop the program, u must use a process manager.
it would be good if someone could make a cab to install it. -- done see the forum (thanks tucahara)
this is still a beta, I intend to make ajustments as people give feedback.
Thanks,
hope u like.

new aproach to do the switch and now open source, even with an class that others can improve and put in other apps...
Some people complain about me not openning the source of the app, I have just made this way because there was proprietary code inside and I had no time to rewrite it without the proprietary code.
I have made the best I could, and now I had some time and rewrite the app in open source, to those who only complain about it, get the code and make it better instead of complaining!
Thanks for all that encourage me to continue the work and helped the development.

Audioswitch for Skype
On HTC Touch by Sprint (CDMA, also known as Vogue), audioswitch does switch the audio in the Skype 2.5 windows mobile PPC from external speaker to handset. Unfortunately, the microphone is then also disabled. I hope you'll be able to tweak your audioswitch to resolve this.
Thank you so much for developing this wonderful applet. I'm sure you will have the gratitude of many frustrated Skype windows mobile users.
What really happens is that when the sound output is switched in some phones, the microphone gain changes too. This happens because the phone thinks it is a "normal call".
Most of the times the mic gain increases, but in your phone it must be decreasing. Try to figure out in registry where the mic gain controls are recorded and chage all of then to the same value. I had this issue with my P3301 and solved this way, but there is quite a time now and I do not remenber where are the reg keys to change, but I have found the information here in the forum.
I will try to figure out for other "hack" to solve this issue... thanks for reply.
doesn't work at T-Mobile Compact IV (aka Diamond)
Sound went to loudspeaker....
PS: fring last version working fine with sound at mine phone (without any additional programms). Sound is going to correct destination automatically
I just tried the latest version of Fring, which automatically switches audio to earpiece when call is connected.
The same issue occurs with the new Fring as I described above with your audioswitch program: I can hear audio through earpiece, but microphone doesn't work (or is inaudible).
I couldn't find a tweak or registry hack to correct this. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I have an idea. Rather than regularly polling to see what the current windows is, why not use a windows hook to monitor windows messages. When you see a message indicating a window has come to the foreground test it against your list of windows and enable/disable audio switch as necessary. Use SetWindowsHookEx and hook for WH_CBT messages. If you are unfamiliar with using SetWindowsHookEx I could supply you with the hooking code and all you would need to do is insert the code to check the window names, enable the audio switch, and disable the audio switch. Or you could send me the enable/disable routines.
Another tip, I noticed that skype places an icon in the notification area during a call. If there is someway of detecting the notification icon that could be another great way to trigger the switch.
Great program though. Works beautifully.
OOOH

It is a good idea to use hook, I have not think of it!
I use a proprietary code included in a lib at the company I work for to make the "switch" but it is not different of what u find here in the forum.
Maybe we can make an effort to re-make it with hooks...
so this program must run all the time? after every softreset you have to start it?
is it not easier with mortscript (for example) to make an shortcut that opens skype as well as the audioswitch program? and closes the audioswithc program when you close skype?
I am using it right now and it seems to work perfect:
i used this script after installing mortscript (http://www.sto-helit.de/):
run( "\Windows\SkypeSoundSwitch.exe" )
runwait( "\Program Files\Skype\Skype.exe" )
close( "troca2" )
(see that in my case i downloaded your original program and renamed it to skypesoundswitch.exe and put it in the windows map)
I renamed it so i could remember what the purpose the file had.. changed nothing but the name!
Thanks for the program by the way! it always worked perfect!!
so to sum up the way i have it now (most files included) on my xperia x1:
1) installed skype
2) installed mortscript
3) add skypesoundswitch to \windows\....
3) add skype.mscr to \.... (root)
4) overwrite skype.lnk with the new skype.lnk in \windows\start menu\programs\..
in the way whenever i open skype(.lnk), it opens skype.mscr, this opens skypesoundswitch.exe and than skype.exe... when you close skype.exe it closes skypesoundswitch.exe...
it seems to work perfect.. but hey maybe i am doing something totally wrong here.. than just shout!
by the way, the .mscr and the .lnk files are offcourse edit-able .. so you can put the files everywhere you like..

That works great too. The advantage of this new program is that it will only reroute the audio when skype is in the foreground. You could minimize skype and leave it running, and audioswitch will automatically restore your sound. Get a call and open up skype and your sound goes back to the earpiece.
I will create the code to do it with a windows hook when I get a chance MarceloFB. Please pm me your email address. All you will have to do is insert the code to read the config file, check the window names, and when necessary enable or disable the switch. Or please show me where to find details on how to code this myself. Thanks!
Hat off to both of you and really glad that we will have a much improved solution.

okay! I only used skype to make calls and than get offline so this way did the trick for me! but i have to admit it would be much better when i can keep skype online!
this new program does the trick indeed! it changes the output back when i minimize skype!
But still my question above, you have to start this program on every startup isn't it? what does it do with the battery?

Yes it must be run at startup but placing a link in your startup folder will make everything transparent to the user. I don't think there will be an effect at startup. In it's current form it must check every second (or whatever you set the timeout to), but its only a little bit of code. I am not really sure if that will really have an effect. The more often it checks the faster it will switch when you open skype, but also the more processor use. Check less often and it uses less processor, but there might be a delay in switching the audio. I proposed doing it by hooks though because this would use even less processor. The app will only check when a new window takes focus, rather than just periodically checking. This way it only checks when it needs to and will always switch instantly.
I am glad u liked the program.
I will try to answer most of the questions...
1- JKingDev:
I have though in your idea of using hooks, but if I use a hook, the program will have a loop anyway to check for the messages(hidden loop ;-) ), and it would have to have an "fake window" or something to process the messages. This way we have only one loop, in a very simple command line program with high optimization, so we have to think what is really the best way of doing it... I will pm u as soon I have any time to "program" again. hehe
2- people that uses mortscript with the old "troca2"
I will try to make a way to make this program work the same way as troca2, maybe with an "argc argv", wait the next update.
3- the battery life??
if u notice any battery life decreasing with the usage of the program, configure a bigger delay, maybe 5000ms, it is a matter of adjust the "timming" for each processor. Post your results here so others can find the optimum value for the delay in their phones.
4- have to start the program every reset?
yes, just put it in the startup folder.
maybe someone can make an cab that put the program in the right place and a link in the startup, it would be cool! I dont have an easy program to deal with cabs, and the vs projects for cabs.... I really cant make that thing work!!
well it is only the batterylife i was worried about. but i'll try running the phone this weekend with the program running and doing some skype.. lets see how it turns out!
For folks who have issues of mic on using this program, there is a quick solution for this problem. You can try sjphone. It provides a internal mic volume control. However, the major setback is that it's only working in wm5.
my 2 cents

will check this, but people reported that worked in xperia... and it is running in my P3301... anyway, will check and post an wm6 build if it is the case... check the error file and see if it tells anything.
Other thing, this program uses low level api`s, so your windows MUST be fully unlocked for it to work in wm6.
Last Update January 15, 2009

السلام عليكم ورحمة الله وبركاتهis it only for changing the profile or it can do more
thanks !! for your time to make it happen any how.
awesome, I was designing this kind of application myself..
But this looks nice, I will look at the source and see if my style matches yours. If so I think I'd like to help develop.
This could duplicate (and more) the functionality of Wifilocations (also on xda-developers), but more than just turning on/off the wifi and bluetooth!

i don't think so, anyway i'm planing to implement alot of new features.
let me know if you have any specific request.
I've been wondering when WM would get to have something like this. About 3yrs ago, I played with a similar program on my Nokia S60 phone. It worked pretty good. When I went to the conference room I could have the phone memorize that location and it would put my phone to silent. And so on. Thanks for your interest and work on this. I look forward to testing it out!

thanks for your support, please let me know if you are facing any problems.
i will be including some more stuff in it soon
I use Wifilocations, but I find it somewhat unreliable with the cell-readout (but perhaps it's me). Anyway, I will give your application a try. I will mainly use it for turning on/off Wifi anyway.
I have a few questions though:
What is the polling frequency?
Is there a special -hide autostart option?
What is going to be different from Wifilocations?
Thx for your work!
Best, danckel

in the future, this application will have alot of features,
it will have a default profile (Unknown Location Profile) which will allow you to set your default setting when you are not in a known area.
also it will have options to prevent from stopping bluetooth and/or wifi if a call is on going (to prevent a BT Headset from disconnection or to prevent Wifi incase of VOIP call).
some more features will be there and whatever you have in mind can be implemented.
the polling time will soon be an option to set i think now it is set to 30 seconds (i'm not sure about the timer settings), the software automatically polls the cell id when a major event happens (add new location or edit one for example).
but i'm concerned about one thing, is it consuming battery?!
i didn't notice anychange in battery life or performance of the device. can you please confirm this?
thanks all for your support.
Didn't test it yet, but I'll suggest you add:
launch an app (sequence)
send predefined sms
connect to A2DP receiver
go to flight mode (cinema, hospital, plane)
turn off GSM part (bad or no coverage)
antitheft actions / lock the phone (when it leaves a specified location)
-> maybe this can be done with just running another app
How accurate is this ?
Cheers
Good Job ,, Well Done ,,
mmm ,, also I suggest to search for another products to collect more ideas to rich your software ,,
You can test this software I'm really using it ,,
http://www.handango.com/catalog/ProductDetails.jsp?storeId=2218&productId=246582
it has many ideas that you can include in your software ,,
also ,, this software not depending on net framework ,, and it has an independent wm service working in backgroud to monitor the cells and change the profile this thing make it too light and stable,,
it also has a today pluggin ,, so today pluggin it important ,,
so ,, give your self a time to try it to get more ideas for your software ,,
like,,, making it shareware
nono ,, please don't make it shareware ,, take all features from GSM Locator except this one ,,

Sure, Sure, these are all nice features
i started immediately on some of what you said
regarding the accuracy, this cannot be measured in any unit!
the GSM mobile cell looks like a hexagon, when you are outside the city this hexagon is set to be larger (covers more land) while it is smaller inside the city, mostly, inside the city (or locations with high mobile traffic) will have more accuracy but not that much precised! for example it will not distinguish a room in your home, but it will be able to recognize your home (but maybe not your neighbour if both are covered with the same cell tower).

needing dot NET framework is not a minus! it's a framework, it makes my life (as a systems developer) easier.
developing a today plugin is tricky, it requres an unmanaged code (cannot be done via managed code at all), so if anyone is interesed in helping me in this part i would be pleased

No way, i'm not planing to establish a company and sell this product. i'm having fun developing it in my spare time
some people might have a performance concern, i did my best to avoid any practice that might affect performance. but even though, please report any performance issues if you face some
enjoy it

Guy, you were plugging your app (with handango link no less) three times on the other thread and now you are bumping it in here on the other app's thread, again? You must seriously work for them. Please, cut it off.
I tried your program, however, it could never get a fix on my location... it was always "unknown".
Im using a Xperia X1 GSM version...

Polling time of 30sec is fine, but I could not verify it. A very helpful trigger event is "turning on the device again". Could you include an active polling on this event?
It would also be nice if the application showed the actual cell id rather than reporting "Unknown" on the main screen. This enables me to check whether the polling actually works.
Wifilocations also has a trigger event when you leave rather than enter a cell. This could also be very handy.
Battery drain is of course a major concern, because the application has to run continuously. I haven't had time to check the battery drain yet.
Finally, is there a program switch that enables starting the program in the background?
PS: Thanks also for sharing the source code.
send predefined sms
-this option would be very useful for people who always travel because it can send an sms to a pre defined number especially if it will also send the cellid. it can be used as a tracking device.
this is what i did:
- launched LPM
- Options > Add New Location
- added location name: Office> ticked Ringing Volume > adjusted to lowest point > Start Recording > Saved
- quit the app
- relaunched the app, now the Current Location shows "Office", Ringer: 0%
- when someone calls, the ringer volume is still max
