Ok, my wizard is running at stock speeds (no overclocking) cause i am currently trying to get it running as I want it to before I start trying to overclock the nuts off it. Problem I have is that after a while it starts running like a dog and no matter what processes I kill it will just not get back to its post soft-reset sprightly nature.
In my startup folder I have
CapNotify
CheckAutoRun
GPRSNotify (which is somehting to do with SPB GPRS monitor I think)
sddaemon (smart dial daemon from what I read on these forums
Services
I have already disabled
Init_tray
poutlook
Theme refresh (which kept changing my desktop back, grrr)
WifiInit
Has anyone got any idea what makes it run so slowly?
Anyone know how to stop pMSNServer from running itself in the background all the sodding time?
Or how to stop ActiveSync loading in the background when it has been nowhere near a USB cable?
Anyone know how to get programs to actually close when you hit the [X] and not have to use task manager to kill the process? (Free options appreciated, I didnt really like pocket plus).
Cheers for any help you can offer.

Have you performed the WM5 registry tweaks? These are documented here
An easy way is to install mokski's two tweak cabs.
As for the x closing apps you can use wclose which I posted here I also use smartskey, a quite necessary lil app!
Hope I was of some help.
Cheers. Just disabled the file system cache (which I dont remember enabling) and will see how it works. If it doesn't work, I shall be re-enabling it and boosting the amount available.
Also disabled the phone skin. Does this work on a wizard? Or is it's running slightly faster the fact that I have just restarted? Or maybe it's just my imagination?
Thanks for wclose, should make life a little easier. Shall look into smartskey afterwards.

This doesn't stop pMSNServer.exe from running. That was the first thing I did (unchecked it), and I even removed the option from the registry branch for Today.

Ditto. Seems to be tied into Poutlook, so as long as I dont read my SMS messages it seems to be ok.
And disabling the skin on the phone app seems to have been the biggest improvement so far.....

Activesync fix
In Active Sync on your device, go to menu-Configure server. Then put in a fake server address and leave all other settings as they are. tap next untill you come to the screen that asks which items you want to sync. uncheck all checkboxes that indicate which items are synced with the Exchange Server and finish the configuration. Then go to menu-schedule and set the sync options both to manual. Now Active Sync will not start automatically to try to make contact with an Exchange Server, which is the cause of the problem.
How do you mean 'disable phone skin' ? and what is the visual effect?
I have a tmobile mda, and when I did disable phone skin it got rid of this ugly pink dial pad when I would try to use the phone as a phone. It also disabled smart dial which was good because smart dial would call people when i was already on the phone because my ear would accidentally push buttons.

Remove operator skin from Phone app
If your device's Phone app is skinned, you can remove by setting:
HKLM\Security\Phone\Skin\Enabled = 0 (DWORD decimal)
Similarly, you can restore it with:
HKLM\Security\Phone\Skin\Enabled = 1 (DWORD decimal)
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
And as bendog says, it removes the autodial features so whenever you push a button it doesnt go through your phone book trying to match a number (which is REALLY annoying when you are trying to use the "Press 1 to buy a ticket" style systems).
Otherwise, it is still kind of blue, just a LOT less laggy.
Phone still seems to end up running like a bit slow though (dont know if that is just a general slow down due to disabling the file system cache) despite me having over 20Mb of Program memory free still. Killing pMSNServer and poutlook when they are running in the background helps.
Current background tasks are....
connmgr* - This and cprog do the actual phone bit, dont think you should want to kill them.
cprog* - Phone GUI maybe?
device*
filesys**
GPRSNotify - SPB GPRSMonitor software related
gwes**
mstli*
NK*
sddaemon*
services*
shell32*
srvtrust*
Things with a * are in /windows. All are .exe files. Those with a ** are .exe files in /windows with a .exe.0409 file also present... no idea what those are.
Also, poutlook and pmsnserver are in windows and are not "required", so seems I cant use that as a test of whether the process is "required"/"preferred".
I think my problem with the blasted pmsnserver stems from me using my hotmail msn account to log into MSN messenger (which promptly downloaded the hotmail into poutlook). Am gonna have to change my msn account to a new MSN address and see if I can remove the hotmail folder.... am sure I have seen a thread on it on here somewhere....
/me finds option to download hotmail automatically..... and disables it
Hmmmm... maybe that will solve that problem.
I use smartskey as well - a beaut of an app, very usefull.
If you want to determine what is consuming the most memory, you could try to install ITaskMgr, which shows CPU Load, Memory Load, and running tasks and processes as well as how much memory they consume each.
Very handy to spot those applications that consume a lot or have memory leaks the longer they are used.

Even with nothing else running, skype opens, logs on, then just crashes right down? anybody else have this?
all I have installed so far is tomotom 5 and total commander.
same problem here.. what version are you running?
I noticed more crashes in 1.20 (beta) from the forums
boh versions 1.1 and 1.2 beta xscale
now its working ok, uninstalled the beta and did a soft reset b4 reinstalling 1.1. this sucks
I tt5
voice command 1.5
total commander installed
the 1.1 has started crashing now too. damn. you thought these monkeys could have checked this out first?
These maybe some of the causes
Skype would NOT open when many applications running in the background. Closing them all it then opened OK,
ACTIVE SYNC id the biggest criminal, it will not run with this in the background.
Close AS4 and SKYPE opens up.
This is now a "Known Problem" on the Imate site, as well as unstable WIFI, which they claim to have fixed, though they don't tell us what the fix is...
Hi,
Here is the update radio stack .
ftp://xda:[email protected]/Uploads/Universal/Bluetooth 1.03.01/
What is this stack for?
This is a Blue tooth?Will it fix the Skype issue? Because I killed myself getting BT to work with Tomtom, would hate to lose that, also, are there any update instructions?
Skype issues...
I have another skype related issue:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=28257&highlight=
any suggestions?
ActiveSync conflicts with skype
It took a while to work out, but here it is: Skype works fine as long ActiveSync is not on. In the old machines, AS would kick in and appear in the memory only after you sync'd. Here it comes up automatically, whether you sync or not. In fact, you should see Active sync running in the background virtually always.
Clicking on the memory you'll see its always on, you press stop, and Skype works for 5-10 minutes, until AS turns tiself back on.
Any fixes for this in the registry?
In my case, Skype does not really crash, it simply does not open up after minimised. However the application is actually operating correctly in the background (I can still receive calls), only the links in the Start menu and Programs menu stop working.
I found that you can bring back the application by going into the Settings --> Memory --> Running Programs and then activate the application from there. Also, if you have an ongoing call and tap on the phone icon on top of the screen, the application is displayed correctly. Reception of a call also 'wakes' Skype up.
If you want to reduce ActiveSync activity you can reduce the update period in Programs-->ActiveSync-->Menu-->Schedule (e.g. peak and non peak hours).
Do you have a JasJar
I don't have a 'schedule' option oin the Jasjar??? Do you? I have 'connections' which is usb + speeds. or 'settings' which is as settings for mail notes, etc

ActiveSync won't show the Schedule menu unless you have an Exchange Server configured for email. The schedule is for periodically checking the server (default 10 minutes).
To Mikey:
Nabil has managed to install a working upgrade of Activesync 4.1. I wonder if that is worth trying to resolve your conflict with Skype & ActiveSync. It's worth a shot, that is if you havent already tried it.

has anyone noticed the size difference between the skype cab you get off skypes site compared to the one in the extended rom,
site = 3.79mb
rom = 4.60mb
anyone used the sites one yet??
im about to load it up as i got rid of skype soon as i got me jasjar out of the box. i'll post results shortly
well, installed and running from the site (the smaller cab), with loads of other apps including activesync, wifi, PIE, contacts, etc, havent got any contacts on there yet tho, so cant really tell if its meant to be having problems yet but it appears to be working absolutly fine
about page states version 1.1.0.6
whats the roms installation version?
the real culprit was, 100% sure, VC1.5
I did several hard reset and re-installs. competition for title of Skype Killer was down to SPB3 and MS VC1.5. well, MS Voice Command 1.5 caused the active sync to kick in and Skype to bug and only a hard reset got rid of it.
Cause of low memory space i need to know how many users prefer a today plugin instead another.
Ps: If is Others (must have similar today functions of the softwares in the poll) , please write something about it!
Thanx for your contribute and sorry fotr my BAD english!
SkizZO: that's a very big question. What do you want your plugin to do? Many of us use many different plugins for very different reasons.

I generally use cLaunch as a launcher, or my own plugins. But if you want to read about different plugins, please have a good long read here and here.

I know I know (...i've forget claunch!!!)
You have to install ONE of this Plugins, and i want to discover which is most used by Magician users.
As a task closer, I use my VJOkButt. It's not perfect, but it works well for me. For launching, I use cLaunch. With SmallMenu as a startmenu replacement, that's pretty much everything I need.

Calendar+ and PPCprofilesPRO.

Arto.
Currently ?
- JGUI Zodiac Date (jeus for the date, and it doesn't pop up anything if you accedently tap it )
- tAgenda (used to have Tasks, Inboy and CalenderPlus, tAgenda makes all three obsolete)
- Oh, and Nakka's TDLaunch, because it let's can configure Iconsize and margins !
Not really a Today Plugin, but it replaces Todays info perfectly : W-Tools ResInfo (yes, Battery stats, Storage and Mem gauge in the Tray! It even shows charging )
My taskmanager is PocketNav, and i use the camerabutton as TodayToggleOFF and the memobutton for TodayToggle (Hi Vijay ! Great tools ! Normaly i would have taken a dozen pictures of side of my pants !
Now nothing really serious happens if the buttons get pushed accedentaly!)
Wow, someone actually uses TodayToggle?!
There's a name I haven't head for a looong time
I like it, but I will really have to think of something useful to do with that app some day!
V
Well, it's usefull enough for me.
I used to have "Today" under a button, but always shutdown the PPC afterwards, so.......
And if i use TTN5, i don't want to PPC to trun of, hence....
AND i always had a problem with accendently pressing the side buttons, and now the at least don't open "Tasks" or like i said, worse; the camare and starts shooting...
Btw, i tried Hidestart, but it doesn't seem to do anyting but temp. show time and batt %....
I'm still looking for all kinds of "Thumbs only" or "Thick fingers" solutions, i use my PPC a lot 'one handed' or in the car...
Espec. setting snooze to 15 min. or so in the car is considdered 'reckless driving'
I haven't developed HideStart any futher than a very early preview a long time ago. I've got some ideas about changing the way notifications are presented, particularly in VJSihaya, but I still like the idea of HideStart.
However, I think that when you "ghost" reminders, they still try to silently activate themselves from time to time, which causes your current app to lose focus, which is irrititing if you're typing something. I thought it was a bug in my code until I realised this. However, I still use it to ghost reminders from time to time when I'm too busy to snooze them all
It's possible some code I wrote for the upcoming release of VJOkButt (used to get around incoming call notifications) might be of help here... but HideStart is not a priority right now unfortunately. I actually just developed it for my own use in a modified version so that I could switch between Start Bar, New Bar and ToggleToday. It shouldn't really have been released, but I thought the reminder remodeling code was a useful idea to demonstrate... more later, I've got work to do

So do i, if it worked If i only could find a decent prorgamming/scripting language for the PPC. Although Mortscript is pretty nice, it misses so features....
And i'm not really a programmer, more like a scripter... Maybe i should take some time to dive into VB or eVB (I can do quite nice things in Acces on the desktop !)

This is a great free today plugin 'TodayAgenda 0.9.9' by Marcel Tiews - its better than calendar + and very configurable and also shows all your tasks due etc.... It has a small footprint and works in qvga and vga resolutions.
Copy cab to device via activesync, click on file through file explorer, install to device - will load better as its a today plugin.
EDIT 14/7/2006 New version available 0.9.11

i'm trying that, seems great application, THX :wink:
Is there a web page for it? I may wanted to try it out. PocketBreeze is a bit slow on my already slowed Charmer. However, I tried a lot of other plugins and PBzz is currently the best on for the price of $10.
One of the thing I like about PBzz is the integration of the Tasks and Appointments on the same screen, and birthdays too. Further, I found the others annoying is the fact that they named tomorrow just like any other date, which may undermined the importance of that particular task tomorrow. Hence, everytime I was looking at my Today screen, I have to particularly check todays date to ensure that if the next task/app on the screen is tomorrow or not.
Do a check
can any body from the ones installed this app tells me if it enables me to set the saturday as the first day of the week or no.
Handy little app meschle! Thanks for posting it.

Thats something your end - firewall or antiviral causing that. It downloads fine for me - try downloading on your wizard through internet explorer.
Ok. I've tested it. My comments as mentioned above,
It doesn't show tomorrow as 'Tomorrow' and, it doesn't even show today as 'Today'. Maybe someone would talk to the author and ask him to make those changes, which is, in my opinion a very good improvement.
But other than that, it is a very good today plugin.

Copy the cab file over to the device via activesync - place in \my documents on your phone - click on the cab file through file explorer on the device. Install to device not storage card. Do not unzip the file - cab file is a self installing archive.

My phone company, 3, have just released these finally in Oz and am heading out to get one tomorrow.
Now is the best time to ask everyone what are their favourite programs they have installed on the Trinity? Saves me searching around forever....
I need one that closes all programs totally (so they dont continue to run in the background), switches what hard buttons do (unless you can do that automatically), plus whatever else people think i need......
I thought this would be a good thread for all newbies and others who want to know what are the best ways to pimp up their Trinity.

You can stop all running programs from Start button->Settings->System->Memory.
Also the new ROM i got has an option somewhere with the ability to change the behaviour on the closebutton.. It says HTC menu util or something similar.
Get magicbutton (for the task closing), its free and works fine....

It's under START->Settings->System->Task Manager.
It has 2 options;
1) End programs by tapping X
2) End programs by taping and holding X
MagicButton sucks pretty hard, the last version has some issues with the telephone application (it doesnt close it).
The most kick ass application you'll ever get for your trin is this one:
Spb Mobile Shell: This a pretty good application that enhance your today screen with tabbed menus and give you alot of nice features like enhanced menus, task manager and alot of other cool features.

thanks for that. what are the programs down the bottom where you can have all the shortcuts on the today page? The one with the tabs for Big,Apps, Car,etc plus the little icons below that....... same program?
That is my only shortfall of this beautiful phone- the lack of shortcuts i can program.
Matterhorn, it looks like you would benefit in battery time and also speed, by using the option to properly close your apps rather than minimise them when pressing the X button. I am judging this by all the apps that appear to be open in the bottom of your today screen.

The apps at the bottom of the screen are all just shortcuts, they aren't running. The program iLauncher allows you to make shortcuts at the bottom of the today screen. These are the apps that I use very often and don't want look for them. The other groups of shortcuts "Big", "Apps" etc. are also part of iLauncher and I make the icons big so I can use my fingers to launch the apps. I have iLauncher programmed to close some apps with the X while other programs are not allowed to be closed with the X, such as Messaging, Mortplayer, IE etc. I use the "close all" option when I really want a clean system. Believe me, I don't let apps run unless I need them running .
how do you make it so the ilauncher bar is all the way down the bottom of the screen? mine sits about halfway up....
Montalbert,
Go to start>settings>today>items select program shown and select move up or down!

BIQ

It is a bit tricky because when you have items in your calendar plug-in it moves the whole today screen up and down. That is why I use TodayAgenda instead, it is an app that allows you to set the length of your Task and Calendar list. This way you only scroll within TodayAgenda and not the whole screen. This makes it possible to make the iLauncher stay at the bottom. You just have to set iLauncher to manual height and experiment until you get the proper height for your today screen.
I hope that helps
I'm a Windows Technician for PC, this is the first time I have jumped into the world of Windows Mobile. I bought a Imagio with Windows 6.5 from Verizon wireless and I'm trying to clean it up as much as possible "like I would my pc" and hopefully extend the life of my battery in the process. I installed SKTools and so far I have managed to lower memory usage to 50 %

Push internet was a new feature introduced that made it so pages you specify on the internet tab would automatically be downloaded in the background according to a schedule. When you visit the link on the internet tab, you bring up a cached (and reasonably updated based on schedule) version that loads much faster.
Disabling push internet disables your phone from downloading the pages, which results in better battery (less data transfer) and more memory (less instructions sitting in memory.)
So what have people been disabling...please specify the file instead of telling me like push internet..cause there isn't a file that says push internet. I've been trying to figure out what services, and startup programs I can do without. Thanks in advance!

Using Touch Commander you can select the exe file then go to File and >>>>>>>>> on the menu. Pick Create shortcut. Click on Tree and browse to \Windows\Startup and say OK. You now have a shortcut (.lnk file) to that exe in the Startup folder which will start on next boot.

Sorry for the stupid questions, but I am no where near the level of computer knowledge some of you guys have so be patient.
1) when looking for these programs, are you finding them in the file explorer?
2) if they are deleted, are then gone for good. I would hate to get rid of something and then realize I needed it cause if I screw it up, there is no way I am fixing it right back like some of you guys or gals can do.
My imagio though was running around 60% when I had sense UI on it, but with the HTC touch flo home screen on, it is running around 70-80% so getting it down will be a big help.
Thanks in advance.

I have deleted the Items you have recomended on my start up and it works good so far.
I Googled the services you have recommended and they seem to be of use, "I'm no expert on them" so I have left them for the time being.

I being using SKTools, is basicly a full suit of diferent tools, including one I would say resembles msconfig from Xp/Vista/Win7 where you can disable items and re-enable them in case you need too. I disabled TouchFlow and the TV Icon thing and that alone freed about 20% of memory.
Here is what I have. Even with Shozu running, I am running at about 57-60%

Very difficult to follow your list by Images
I have lowered my Memory usage to 41 % upon boot with these 2 cabs, I can confirm they work good on my Imagio.

I cant get sktools to install keeps telling me it is not a pocket pc app and yes I checked to ensure I dl the wm6 ver.Any ideas?
Not sure, but I can think of a few things. How are you installing it? Did you get the .cab for SKfile or a exe? Also I suggest updating your .Net Framework to version 3.5

I have 3.5 running thx.What the message tells me is that I dont have a PPC.Strange

Make sure it's for PocketPC (touchscreen) and not Smartphone (non-touchscreen).

There isn't Push Internet on the Imagio, it is only on the TP2.
Not sure what I am doing wrong but when I dl the WM 6 ver it still says Not the ver for a ppc I know I am missing something but don't know what it is.
