activate BT from today screen? - 8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General

that's all i need...
and cant find a nice app for that...
can anyone help with that?
thanks

you may try the commercial apps like PhoneAlarm or PocketZenPhone.
freeware solutions are also available like PhoneProfiles. However what I did was this
Show Network Operator Name in today screen
Restoring Today Item: WiFi, BT and Phone Connection Status
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Today\Items] Create "Wireless" use Key
"Flags"=dword:00000000
"Options"=dword:00000000
"DLL"="netui.dll"
"Order"=dword:00000000
"Enabled"=dword:00000001
"Type"=dword:00000004
Enable clicking on the today plugin above open Comm Manager
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\ControlPanel\WrlsMgr] Create key "Redirect"

I use an app called BTSwitch that's freeware and have it mapped to my PTT button on the 8525. All the app does is toglle bt on or off depending on it's current state. Since I can't seem to find the app on the net any more, I've attached it to this post.

PhoneAlarm does it too if you need PA for other things...

nah, i tried PA...too heavy for what i need...
i'll try the BTswitch and the reg. thing. thanks
edit:
BTswitch exactlly what i needed. sits perfectly on my SPB +
thanks

Something that i've found usefull to me and may be also usefull to others:
By adding the DWORD Selectability='1' to the wireless item, it will allow selecting the plugin with the D-Pad (scrolling on the today screen).

I have Selectability set to 0 and I am still able to select it. Weird.

Today Plugin - Wireless (Universal tweak, works on Wizard)

Not sure if this has been posted in the Wizard forums before but i just found this in the Universal forums and now have a new Today plugin that displays the status of my Wireless connections. It seems to work for everything except GPRS
Just add the keys below to the Wizards registry.
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Today\Items\"Wireless"]
"DLL"="netui.dll"
"Order"=dword:00000000
"Enabled"=dword:00000001
"Type"=dword:00000004
For the full info on this, check the Universal forum here:

There is a photo in the Universal post but here's a screenshot of my K-JAM. The items only seem to activate on the Today screen when you enable the Particualr Wireless mode. As WiFi is disabled as soon as i connect ActiveSync i enabled WiFi in Comm Manager and quickly took the screenshot before WiFi was turned off, hence the unavailable status.
Note you cannot interact with this plugin. it is purely display only.
CHeerts,
Thanks puckster shows up on the list of the items list/today but not on the screen. I assume that is cuz I have no wifi connection right

When I added the entry, I had to go into the Today setting and uncheck, then re-check "Wireless" which made it appear. At a minimum you should see a bluetooth symbol that says on or off.
If you still can't get it to show up, double check the dword entries you created.
Btw - thanks for bringing this over to the Wizard forum Puckster..it's a handy little Today item.
Mine displays Carrier / Flight Mode & Bluetooth as well as WiFi status.
If WiFi is disabled it does not display on the today plugin however my Bluetooth is always displayed there even when turned off. The Carrier (Vodafone in my case) changes to Flight Mode when you enable it.
I would possibly re-check the registry keys. Also i just remembered i did add 2 extra keys to my registry that werent mentioned in the Universal thread.
I have attached a registry export of the key i created on my K-JAM so maybe you could use this as template as it works on mine.
NOTE: All of the keys are decimal dword entries except DLL which is a string.
Chris
Thanks for your help and I have rechecked everything and all seems ok. Phm reg editor can't seem to import the reg file you gave me ;(
It's nice to have the indicators...but I wish they didn't require the real estate of a whole additional Today bar. I would love to find a way to put indicators like that in the icon tray at the bottom (just above the Contacts soft key image).
this is exactly what i wanted much appreciated.
no go here, but I'm on an old, old ROM
Thanx Puckster, worked like a charm
Exactly what i was lookinf for ty again
zeeboxx:
You need to be using the new AKU2 roms for this to work
which answers "meschle"'s question - assuming he's still on 1.6.7.1

Have the same on Himalaya
Hi,
I running WM5 on my Himalaya and I have it by default. However, when I tap in the area, it takes me to the Comm Manager or Wireless Manager.
Same on the Wizard or should I check potential differences in the reg?
Cheers,
Hal.
yes. please check the differences. When I click on it, it does nothing.
Thanks.

ammar you are the best man, I have tried all other methods. yours only worked. God bless you.
I ran ammar's cab. The Wireless box appears in my Today screen, and I tried checking and unchecking it, tried soft resets, even tried a re-install of the cab file. I have a T-Mobile MDA, and I have SPB Today Plus and PHM Traylaunch running. I'm using the black theme.
Anything else I might try?

OK/Close Button Freeware?

Hey Guys, I just recently baught the T-mobile MDA and am looking for the OK/close button freeware mentioned in this review http://www.brighthand.com/default.asp?newsID=12194 Can anyone direct me to where I can find it?
This site is incredible but I'm having a hard time locating this program.
Sounds like they're talking about Smartskey It double duties the soft keys as start and ok/close+more.
Here's a dedicated thread for Smartskey which has download links for the app...

You have to install it in the main memory or in the storage memory and it should start on it's own (provided you have enabled the Auto Start option in its settings. If you install it in the storage card, you will probably need to start it manually.

on my device it all happened automaticly. IF you tap&hold the X or OK in the left top corner of the screen you should see it getting active. tap&hold again ans magic button goes away
I still have not found the perfect task closer/manager. I have used several, but am still searching for the perfect application. The following are my criteria for the idea solution:
1.) Small. This is one of the only applications in main memory for speed/stability, so I want is small
2.) I want the WM5 icons. I like the square X and do not want any extraneous icons for settings (i.e. vbar). Essentially, I do not want to know the application is running.
3.) Task switcher. Ideally, i would tap and hold on the X to get a drop down with all the open apps that I can then switch to.
That is it, nothing extra. All the Wisbar derivatives (vbar, magic button) have extra icons for the settings. The two closest candidates for perfect closer/manager I have come across are wClose by Rui Goncalves and tMan by jasnapaka.com. wClose is only 8k :shock: and uses WM5 icons, but no task switcher. tMan has a great task switcher and is small, but uses a dot instead of WM5 icons. I am currently using wClose. My 2 cents.

Lower task bar

Those tweaks are for the universal not the wizard thats why you can't find the keys you want.
To remove the system tray just delete the init_tray.lnk from the windows\startup folder on your device and soft reset.
Mark, if I delete init_tray.lnk, will that let me use the space for the today screen instead, or is it still "reserved"?
Thanks

Oops, I didn't think to make a backup.. i'm sure someone will be able to provide it anyway should I need it in future.
I have a similar question along the same lines... pocket plus doesnt take up the whole today screen, is there a setting somewhere that i've missed, or maybe a regedit where you can specify the height of the today plugin?
Here is the backup file.
Sorry can't comment on pocket plus don't run that - me a much more basic kinda guy :wink:

Hi
as already told, you can remove Init_tray.lnk from startup. but be aware - this will make slight problems with software, which places icon in tray (CardExport, Pocket GPS Pro etc).
in addition you could gain more place by eliminating lower bar (with contacts and calender). they will be still accesible through soft-buttons, but will not take place on today screen.
i prefer dciNoBar
http://www.google.ru/search?hl=ru&q=dcinobar&lr=
(sorry, some links are in russian, but i think you will have no problems with finding download link).
if you like the result - you may add this program to startup folder so it will restart automatically after softreset.
BR!

Thats cool then if its possible - probably because i still have phm traylaunch and it stays where it normally is and i want it right at the bottom.

its under tools\capture - i would be interested to see what setup you have and i will fiddle with mine a bit more - thanks
EDIT fiddled with it and yes - it works!!!! phm traylaunch is right at the bottom now. Nice one mate - cheers! Now I need some new themes - normal ones are not long enough.
EDIT2 can't get traylaunch to stay at the bottom - trying to sort out a workaround!

Find enclosed a screen capture program - you can assign to a hard key.
through settings\buttons
Its only drawback is that it saves in bmp format
EDIT version 0.02 does not seem to work so well - on my device - the soft keys often don't seem to work, i only got them to work once - I go back to the other version.
No soft key buttons
I have put dcinobar into a cab for easier installation.
Copy cab onto device, click on cab, install to device and then soft reset.
VJToggleToday
For those using dcinobar - I have tried Vjtoggletoday and would have to say it works better. You can remove soft keys only, soft keys and start bar or startbar only - have it just the way you like it. Does not have the glitch dcinobar has where you need to open and shut the keyboard

Very low memory footprint today plugins

What are people using for thier today plugins? I want to make the device run as quick as possible, with as much free program memory as possible, but i want some today plugins with the following functions: schedule/callender, shortcuts to programs, messages, call-time used during the month, gprs usage, weather, normal stuff really i guess.
What have people found to be the lowest memory-using programs?

With 02 you can't get the count messages to work as 02 don't allow a sent notification that dktoday needs to count sms's. You could use the wireless plugin to display operator logo.
Is there a low memory program to put shortcuts on Todayscreen like spb pocketplus does? I've tried traylaunch but I'd only wish it had a browse option to select files.

It's freeware, small and may be easily customised. You are even able to use your own icons. n.b. you cannot creat shortcuts to files.

I have cLaunch and have created shortcuts/icons to excel files.
decknologist: yes, in my experience, CLaunch is one of the most configurable launchers around (look me up on SourceForge. I'm a big advocate).
It can certainly launch .exe, .lnks etc, and all with command lines. Very useful for all of my junk!

How to disable "footprint" on right hardware-button?

Hi,
I would like to disable the footprint-application from the right hardware-button, but it dosn't work. In registry under HKLM/Software/Microsoft/shell/keys I've made two new entries (40C1 and 40C2), so I can choose now the two hardware-buttons in preferences. But when I lay another program to the right hardware-button, this programm starts together with footprint...
The left hardware-button is no problem, it works fine with every programm I want
Thanks
oese
(sorry for my bad english, I hope you can understand my problem...)
Looks like it is somehow hardcoded into the TouchFLO interface. I managed to "unmap" the left key (simply by uninstalling TomTom), but I had no success with the Footprints key so far.
I think that some program or registry setting is responsible for these keys mapping.
I've managed with ae button plus to assing a different application to these keys, but the default apps run again with the new apps. And I think that because you uninstalled tomtom, just they didn't find the app and for this is not running with the new assinged app.
I don't think that is touchflo related.

I am not sure mate, tried to look almost everywhere in the registry with no success. But I'll keep trying, the Navi and Footprints buttons sux. I'd rather have Diamond's/HD's Back and Home keys, if nothing better.

Sure, I know it just doesn't find the app, but at least it got me rid of TomTom (I am an iGO 8 user). I admit it's quite lousy workaround.
I think I found something.
Seems that the function of these buttons loading as a service.
I've managed to unbind the left button by stop the NaviService(NPS0 and I think that
the service App Service(APP1 is responsible for the right button, but I cannot stop this service.Needed further research though.
EDIT:
I've managed to disable it from registry(HKLM\Services\App). I changed Context and Index values to 0 and seems that the button is unbind now!
Needed to set these services to not automatic start also. This can be done with FdcSoft Task Manager 3.1
Ok, after some time playing around with my registry, I found a workaround how you can start a different program with the footprint button:
(BTW I have a German version so I'm not sure how the features are called in English, so if anyone can describe what I write next clearer, please feel free. Thx)
First you have to go to system preferences. In the system tab you'll find an option where you can make some adjustments about A-GPS and Place Settings. In the left tab you can activate and deactive A-GPS and tell your device which provider to use to access it. In the right tab you can tell the device not to notify you if some HTC software wants to start this feature which monitors the place where you are. Check this box.
This will keep the Google notifier to pop up every time you press the footprint button.
The go to the registry:
\HKLM\Software\HTC\FootCam
and simply change the path in there to any program you want to use with the button. e.g. \Program Files\ThumApps\ThumbCal\Thumbcal.exe
Well, works well, but do you have any idea if disabling these services does not cause any other issues?
After a hard reset I did the following
- installed the 40C1 and 40C2 reg key
- set the the NaviService(NPS0) to manual
Both buttons can now be used by Windows without any issue so far. No more changes were needed for me. Hope that helps. (I have a HTC Guide, that is the O2 branded version)

I mentioned that few posts above.
The problem is that when the NaviService doesn't run, NaviPanel doesn't start automatic when in carkit mode, even if this option is checked in carkit settings screen.

Before read THIS
Then use "Start" - "Settings" - "Hardware-Buttons" to change assignment.

Yes It Works,
Followed the steps and it works. I assigned foot prints to put phone in standby ( screen off / on ) The Off works quick, the On has a delay but I will get used to it.
Set the NAVI to Manual Start is the trick
