Turn on GPRS from Menu Bar, Now You Can

After being ticked off about not being able to turn on GPRS like we could on WM2003, you know tap on the "G" and select turn on GPRS or something like that. I have since been on a restless pursuit to find a simple and small program to take care of this...Well my search has ended, here is that small (4.5kb) program. Just copy to programs and create a shortcut to the today screen or if using wisebar even better..Once their just tap (make sure phone is on). It will connect to GPRS and also tell you your IP Address....Enjoy

"VJVolubilis -gprson" might provide an alternative with some other functionality thrown in as well.

Any feedback...working well for everyone?????

Perfect!!!!!
Just what I needed! And easy to get working!
Thanks man!

I assigned the voice recorder hardware button as GPRS.exe by PQz2 （http://www.nicque.com/PQz/）.
It's great convinience!
Thank you!

When you say "Programs", which folder do you mean? Can you please specify the path. There are 2 "Programs" folder.

If you want it to show up with all your regular programs then place it in
windows/start menu/programs. Otherwise you can put it anywhere if you
are using Wisebar or a program like Ilauncher.

If I turn GPRS ON using this program, how do I turn it OFF?

you can turn it off via comm manager or just tap the connected icon in the menu bar and then tap disconnect. nothing changes you just turn off like always....

@cktlcmd
you also can switch off the gprs connection by pressing the red telephon key for about 3 seconds.
Wolfgang

VJVolublis -grpsoff or -gprstoggle can also do that. Although pressing red is faster

Perfect, thank you. This is exactly what I was looking for, for use with PocketPuTTY. I especially like the fact that it tells you your new IP.

How do you put a shortcut on the Today Screen?

auto keypad lock?

Hi
I want to phone to keypad lock itself automatically as a normal mobile do. There must be a setting for this? As for now I have the lock thing in my today screen and have to press it. I often miss and hit something else and the phone calls people all afternoon while in my pocket. Somewhat anoying.
/d

Would be nice to have a device lock that didnt take up so much space on the today screen.

Then look for the DeviceLock CAB file and assign it to a hardware button so you can remove it from the Today Screen (just like I did last week ).

Did a search for that cab file, but didnt find it. Where is it supposed to be?
/d

i used vjkeypress with the link -133 which will lock the device and assined it to my comm butten because i don´t use it that often and have it in my tray also

I cant seem to install the devicelock.cab on my Blue Angel ... is it because it wont run on WM2003 or some other reason maybe.
Does anybody know about another program for key locking the BA?
Cheers

You might want to ask that in one of the BA forums, this is a Wizard Forum...

Frezzor: How do you assing the shortcut to the comm button? I can only choose installed program when assigning the buttons.

Automatically dim backlight?

I've got a question: when my TyTN was in for repair, I used a Nokia E61. It had a cool feature:
whenever you don't use the device for 30 seconds, the backlight would "fade out" to the minimum (not 0, but 1 on a scale of 10). Now that I have my TyTN back; I sort of "miss" that in my TyTN. Is ot possible to create something that would do this?

Ooh. That is a pretty cool feature.
I second the request.

Suprised I haven't seen that yet.

that means an process should always regulate the backlight and but it back to maximum as soon as an input happens. sound a bit like wasted cpu load
edit: i want it! ^_^

Great feature, have you tried this plugin

no files...

Extract and turn on show system hidden files. Then You will see all files.

mmm on my PC I have this option switched on. Tried it with Resco Explorer on the TyTN, and who could have guessed: I have the files.
Now the next issue: where do I put them? Tried the /windows directory, but I thought it better not to replace the existing backlight.exe without "proper guidance". Anyone has experience?
<edit> Heck, tried it anyway. I can't open the backlight settings now... (thank god I made a copy of the original backlight.exe).
Any advice?

If it disabled your backlight setting that's a good sign, there must be another file referenced in the mui which needs to be included. Can someone point me in the right direction?
Stynos I sure hope you did do a backup of your old backlight files. If you haven't, you can probably get them back with recovery software or from someone with a TyTN. I should of added a warning, just thought it went without mentioning.

removing these "new" files and soft reset should restore system ones.....ehhh..
btw, it is not working on wizard, too...

There's another files in the directory called "backlight.dll" maybe include that one too.

No such file, did find this one though...

I loaded the power_service.dll and the backlight control panel app still doesn't work on my HTC Apache. The Power icon still works perfectly.

My power registry looks like this:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Power\State
BacklightOff
ColdReboot
On
Reboot
+Resuming
+ScreenOff
+Suspend
+Unattended
+UserIdle

Mine is the same.

What option tabs do you have under Settings/System/Backlight ?
I've got |Brightness|Battery power|External power|
In Settings/System/Power I have |Battery|Advanced|
If you've got these same settings, one of them might be conflicting with the other.
For example I've got Settings/System/Power|Advanced| "On battery power" set to "Turn off device if not used for 5 minutes"
Then in Settings/System/Backlight|Battery power| set to "Turn off backlight if device is not used for 30 sec
The last setting just lowers the backlight

Your last setting is "Turn off backlight", I thought it would add an option to dim the screen to a lower backlight setting. Because I have the turn off backlight feature

The setting says that, but it doesn't actually turn it off. It just lowers it to 1 on a scale of 10 (I can still see my today screen). Tapping the screen or pressing a button lights it back up.

My PCs playing up so screenshots will have to come tomorrow...

Hello,
First off I have WM 6.1
What is Unlock EXE for? I tried the path to s2u2.exe and it only kept the lock screen on permanently. I had to do a reset to get back to today.
Also, once file->save is selected, the close button does nothing, but the options are saved anyway.

it's good great tool setting, thank you

cool. thanks

Yes this most useful. I believe without you have to edit the registry manually.

hasnt this been out for a while now? i remember dling something similiar if not the same app but older and it let me set lock, unlock wavs, slide and answer txt..

Nice....
Great works...Hopefully in future we will see more function. Likewise changing background,clock etc..We can still do these things. But you can add those function, so anybody can change it with settingplus..Thanks again..

Just a feedback, the soft key <Close> did not close the program, the screen still remains. Need to close it via the [x] at the top right hand corner.
Overall, a nifty program. Thanks for sharing!!

for sum reason the wav file for me dont work

Yes it has. I've recently gone back to it, and added the "Unlock EXE" and tweaked it a bit.
BTW, UnlockEXE is what S2U2 will launch when you unlock the device.

How large files were they?
Were they wav files, or some other format?
And, was the path generated in the text box correct?

Will test out the ApptoDate for your latest version, once I go home.
Update:
The soft key works, even ask you for a confirmation..

will this still work in the latest cersion os S2U2 v1.30?

I believe not for the S2U2 and S2A text.. cos' A_C moves it to another location now.

This is the "DUSK" theme.
I wonder if anyone have got simply the 2 .cpr files needed.

Here's the .cab without the Dusk theme.
Credits to Heartofwolf from htcpedia.com.

for the slider.cab, i notice there is a blank space above with a thumbnail.
may i know how do i fill in that blank?

i uninstalled the slider cab and then the old lock screen is gone.... i then get another lock screen that requires u to tap instead... just fyi, i installed heart of wolf version and its fine.... but i dont know if uniinstalling that will get me the original back... it is ok for me as i dont mind the new one...

Done!
Copy the files using TotalCommander to windows root directory and windows/landscape folder (I don't know if this second one is necessary).
Then settings>lock check that windows default is selected and enter a pin code.
After that the lock screen will be back to normal and you can remove the pincode if you (like me) don't like it.
