Does anybody know or has utility to create shortcut to turn on/off Wi-fi on Today screen? I really need it 'coz it can save my time when I want to control it.
Thanks

You can use VJVolubilis if you have software that allows you to put links to programs on your today screen, or else put the wifi toggle command in your list of permenant start programs. The registry hack doesn't seem to do anything other that show the status of the bluetooth and WIFI connections on my universal. You can get VJVolubilis from http://www.vijay555.com/

I've tested this software alreay. But, it didn't work on my PPC.
(Dopod 818 Pro with WM5). Anyway, thanks so much for your info. :lol:

@Theerayuth
There was some mentione here, that VJVolubilis actually does work on the prophet, after you have at least once manually turned on/off the Wifi in the Com Manager.
Now I wondering, if we do use the wifi toggle at startup, will this enable VJVolubilis to work afterwards without the need for one turning on/off in Com Manager?
Any thoughts?

This works on the m600, but clicking it only opens the comm manager, just as fat to click the comm manager button!

I'm afraid that it work on m600 only, but, not apply to Dopod 818 Pro. May be I have to find other softwares to handle it. Anyway, thanks so much for your info.

In my case (XDA Neo) I've just copied Windows\WiFiInit.lnk to Startup folder and after that wifi switching with VJVolubilis works fine. even after device restart.

Mine does that also, but it doesn't bother me that much. What is s2u2? If that can stop it I might try to check it out just for the sake of not having it do it when I don't want it to.
Edit: NM I found out what is was "Slide 2 Unlock".

It can be really annoying... I would like to know what causes it as well.
For sometime I was missing calls, texts, emails, etc. when the phone was asleep. You ever get that?

You should consider linking to A_C's thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=353008&highlight=s2u2) instead of just giving out the cab so A_C can get credit for his excellent work and whoever decides to use it knows where to go to ask questions and get the lastest version.

S2U2 latest version is .97... It works flawlessly (on my Sprint HTC Touch/Vogue). He fixed a lot of problems in the earlier versions...

Oops, correction... .98

No prob, sorry if I sounded a little rude.

Screen comes on whenever reception changes from 1x to Evdo to Roaming etc.
Problem is if you didn't lock and it's in your pocket it starts running all kinds of stuff.

S2u2
will that work on WM6 even though the one i have says wm6

Is there a way you can stop that from happening other then S2US?

I've noticed this as well, but it only seems to happen if I leave Opera Mobile running in the background.

S2U2 is pretty awesome
i like it alot

Same problem. Fairly annoying. I have a phone holder that clips onto my air vent in my car. At night it just lights up for no reason. I might have to give s2u2 another shot. Last version i tried was buggy.
.eric

im pretty sure its a lot of different things that cause it to awake.. going from evdo to 1x, checking your email because you prolly scheduled it to do so every hour or what-have-you, it could be updating the weather as well.. really the reason the phone is waking up from sleep mode is data based.

Copy both files to the same folder in your device. Optionally you can create a shortcut to add to start menu programs.

Wifi and bluetooth on today screen.

I have seen a screenshot of the today screen with the wifi and bluetooth on it. How can i get it on mine?
Also is there a app like the iphones iano application avalible for windows mobile?

Have you try X-panel yet? I believe X1 have many "Today screen" instaed of default one. Some of X-panel have both Wi-Fi and bluetooth on sceen and you can do 1-click to enable/disable it
Try! ^__________^

jagger2k do you have an X1? If you do you just need to enable the "Wireless" today plugin (which is done by default).

I have tried the xperia panel but i dont really like it. I much rather preper the windows today screen. And yes i do own an x1, how do i check to see if wireless is enabled?

doesnt give the option to put wifi and bluetooth on the today screen though.

Phone Alarm from Pocketmax. Simply a must today add-on for WM

jagger2k, you could try this registry edit (http://www.mobilitysite.com/boards/tips-tricks/133347-you-can-display-wireless-today-plugin.html). I tried it on my X1 last night and it works fine.

Have you ticked Wireless???

artesea,
maybe in your Xperia there is an entry wireless under today\items but it isn't there in most branded Xperia's so please stop repeating the obvious and let others help to find a solution.

My X1 is not branded. I don't have that by default under today options.
I wanted the option to one-click BT and Wifi so I installed PDAStatus.

I did as instructed, but I don't like that Wireless Today optiopn.
PDAStatus is better for me, clicking the BT or Wifi icon will turn the clicked item on or off, not just take me to comm manager.

Some bluetooth utils you might find useful

The first is A2DPSwitch. I wrote this a while ago and posted in the Kaiser forum. Posting it here because I made some changes and think some here might find it useful. It simply toggles the connection to an A2DP headset. Simply run the exe and if connected it will disconnect. If disconnected it will connect. The new changes are that now it checks to make sure BT is on first, and turns it on if it isn't. The other is a fix. Before if there was a non A2DP headset and an A2DP headset in range sometimes it wouldnt work. Now it always finds the A2DP headset. Useful for those pesky car head units that don't automatically connect A2DP. The cab will place a shortcut in the start menu.
The second is BTKeepAlive. An exe that runs in the background and checks to make sure BT is on and turns it on if it isn't. The checking interval in milliseconds can be modified by changing HKCU\Software\JKing\BTKeepAlive\Interval (DWORD). The default value is 60000 (one minute) and if that reg value does not exist 60000 will be used. BTKeepAlive 1.1 can now also keep discoverable mode on. Set HKCU\Software\JKing\BTKeepAlive\KeepVisible (DWORD) to 1 and BT will be kept on invisibility mode. The default is 0. I know there is a mortscript written to do this but I would prefer not to leave this up to a mortscript. Also, BTKeepAlive will automatically check immediately after the device is woken from sleep. Run BTKeepAlive.exe to start it and run BTKeepAlive.exe again to terminate it. The cab will place shortcuts in the start menu and in startup, and will create the reg value.
While you're at it, why not assign A2DPSwitch to the long press of a volume key?
[/Shameless plug]
Now back to working on X1BC. Cheers!

Thanks. It's a must for buggy HTC bluetooth driver across all their devices. My Kaiser and X1 always drop A2DP connection after phone call, and it would not happen on my Asus P525 on Eten M600

why is it after i have installed it, it doesnt seem to run? it just show a blank icon and doesnt do anyhting. its for both programs.

The programs do not have interfaces. BTKeepAlive will just run in the background. click on it again and you will get a notification that it is exiting. A2DPSwitch toggles and A2DP connection. Do you have a wireless stereo headset?

I thought it was just that the Windows Mobile bluetooth stack just sucked at A2DP. Did either of those devices use the broadcomm/widcomm bluetooth stack?

P525 use Widcomm but M600 use MS stack as well.

I have just purchased an X1 and have the problem with bluetooth turning off constantly. I have downloaded the .cab files and unzipped them, but the setup file is an .xml file and there are no instructions.
I am prety new to this stuff and dont fully understand.
Could someone please give me some setup instructions.
Thanks

A cab file is an installer that you can run directly on your PPC. Just copy the cab file to your X1 using Active sync or by copying it to your storage card and open it on your X1 using the file explorer.

Thanks JKingDev for such a useful tool like btkeepalive!

Now I have a question:
are you able to expand this useful tool for the function that it keeps alive the visibility of bluetooth too?
because after using wifi, my bluetooth toggles automatically invisible, but i need visibility always to use bt with my car stereo handsfree...
i hope you could help me

That is strange that you must keep bluetooth on visible for your head unit to connect. Sure, I will add a registry value "KeepVisible". If the value is 1 btkeepalive will keep visibility on.

Ok, version 1.1 uploaded. Set HKCU\Software\JKing\BTKeepAlive\KeepVisible (DWORD) to 1 and BT will be kept on invisibility mode. The default is 0.

Hey JKingDev,
great work!
I've already tested it. I changed the DWORD to 1 and now it keeps BT visible
Thanks a lot!

Great set as usual JKing
i really like your apps, installing almost all of them on my phone
Thanks mate

Hi,
Thank you for your great work, but may i know how am i able to remove your program as your program doesn't show in the program list when im trying to remove it. Thank you.

Hmm, I am really not sure why that is. It should be in add remove programs as "Jonathan King's BTKeepAlive". How did you install it? Did you manually run the cab or did you use something like UC to install? To manually remove, stop the program, delete the shortcuts from \Windows\Startup and from \Windows\Start Menu\Programs, delete the program from \Program Files\BTKeepAlive, and delete the reg key HKCU\SOFTWARE\JKing\BTKeepAlive.

confirmed with my x1 too btkeepalive keeps on bluetooth all the time!!!! great work!

JKingDev, may i make a request ?? hmmm ! could you create a deamon that when the handsfree from your car connects the deamon would activate a2dp ??
this would be a killer deamon !!! like you said that car a2dp is a pain ...

This script works perfectly, thank you so much! My HTC Diamond disconnects bluetooth randomly when paired to my BMW bluetooth so hopefully it'll work as well in my car as it does when I toggle off bluetooth manually. One quick question, if I set the dword to 1000 (1 sec) will that have any impact on my battery? I'm hoping not as this is such a tiny program but I really have no idea.
