Some of the buttons didn't work until I edited the .ini file enclosed but otherwise looks cool and works nice esp the lock/unlock slide thing.
UPDATE INFO:
Click this link for a VERY cool rewrite of this application;

Nice work!!!!!!!

great find! i was hoping this would show up when i first saw the video. I got it loaded and it's pretty nice to work with. One question so far....where is the comm manager located on the 8525. Im trying to find the path so i can link the settings button to it but i cannot find it. Thanks!
Edit: This is a little bigger issue for me, my clock on the device it self it correct but in the iphone launcher app it is 4 hours ahead. How and hell do i fix this? Any help is appreciated

How did you edit the .ini file?

^^^ Same question here.
I have no issue updating. I just don't know what to do.
I downloaded and will run the file. I will take a closer look.
PS: WICKED FIND! I was starting to think that it was lost to us.

Connected the phone via activesync and copied the file to my pc. Then I can edit with notepad by right click - open with etc. If that's not working for you drag the file and drop it onto a notepad icon

Has anyone tried this on WM6? I'm planning to try it in a few days, so if there's no feedback, I'll let you guys know if it works.

i have some problem with the clock i see only 0 0 in my main screen and when i tap it to lock the screen i see nothing ....maybe it'a beacuse i have hebrow installed in my pocketpc what should i do?
and another quick qustion can i make the screen automticly lock it self after a few min that i didn't used it?
great job!!!!!

That's the same for me, "0 0" instead of the time on the clock, but the locking works when tapping on it... any idea?

I do not know how to do that, but I managed to map hardware button to slide.exe. To do that you have to create a link to it (for example to programs folder). Then you can map this link via Settings >> Buttons. Only issue I am having is that the time is lagging two hours on Slider screen.

Any ideas yet on how to get the time in the the launcher program to sync with the phone itself? Mine is still running 4 hours ahead.

Very nice find! Like many other my only problem is with the slide unlock the time is off by 5 hours and the date is 1 day ahead. If anyone finds away to fix this please post, thanks I will continue to play around with it and see what i can come up with..........

Just a guess - I don't have the application installed and haven't had that program but your phone has to clock settings Home -> Visting. Maybe your phone is accidentally set to Visiting clock and the home clock is off by a bit and the applications are pulling the time from the Home clock? It's a shot in the dark guess but worth a shot!

Well

Thanks for the reply that was actually the first thing that i checked when i noticed the problem

Clock Off
Best guess I can give is that the time isn't being adjusted for time zone. Mine is 5 hours ahead and I am in US Central time zone (GMT -6) so it is close to Greenwich mean time.
I would try to fix this myself since the source is provided but I need a developers kit and a compiler...
Edited:
Actually if I remember correctly (big IF) daylight savings time is a US thing so with DST right now that would put the offset right at GMT.

anybody figure out how to fix the timing issue

rk-TSR Scheduled Theme Switcher (1.0.2)[Updated Sep 17,2007]

rk-TSR: Automatic theme/wallpaper switcher.
Latest version 1.0.2 Supports wallpaper switching too! and better file browser has been implemented.
Here is the theme/wallpaper switcher application I built to switch themes (*.tsk) and wallpaper (*.jpg,*.gif) based on the schedules you setup. i.e, Automatically loads the theme/wallpaper you specified at scheduled time.
I am using day, evening and night themes to reflect on my HTC today screen.
Supports command line execution
Code:
To enable the application--> \program files\rk-TSR\rk-TSR.exe enable
To disable the application--> \program files\rk-TSR\rk-TSR.exe disable
To load the theme--> \program files\rk-TSR\rk-TSR.exe “\storage card\rkAzulBlue.tsk”
To load the wallpaper--> \program files\rk-TSR\rk-TSR.exe “\storage card\MyWallpaper.jpg”
(To load the theme from command line the theme must be configured and listed in rk-TSR, but wallpaper would load without being listed in the application.)
Looks cool with the HTC weather icons!
Install and configure schedule for each theme
Also included my themes(You can use your own themes)
It will work on WM5 and WM6.
Does not write anything to registry and not memory resident (not a background process)
Attachments:
rkAzulThemes.zip contains three ziped themes, check the screenshot.
rk-TSRSetup.CAB is the theme/wallpaper switcher application
Let me know.
Note: this application requires Compact Framework 2.0
You need compact framework 2.0 installed inorder to run this application. The compact framework is already part of WM6, so if your device is WM6 skip this step. But most of the WM5 devices do not have this update. So you must download here and run the installation on your desktop (then active sync to update your device). Only after completing this step install the application.
If you like my work consider donation on paypal
Download from here

Giving it a try
Looks nice will let you know.

Great JOB!
Thx

No comments so far...

Copy the *.tsk files to any directory(do not copy to \windows directory.)
You can put the tsk file on storage card or under \my documents. Now when you click 'add' button on the rk-TSR you it should show up. But when you click the 'add' button you have to make sure that the theme you are adding must be already loaded.
To load the themes go to Start\Settings\Today
Let me know if you need more information. Glad to help you.

It can be custumized any way.... eg.
You can setup 22:00 to load the night theme(or any theme you like) and setup 06:00 Day theme, may be 15:00 to load the olive theme.
Bascially you are telling the program to load a theme for you at a time specified by you.
HTH

Thanks again. Tested it. and its great.

seems nice, testing

Thanks Tytnguy,
I dowloaded and use this great little program. Is it possible tweak it so I can set up different days also?
I have a theme for work hours and a different one for after 5pm. would be great set it different again on Sat/Sun.

Hello,
which with this program still another good thing would be, is automatic switch with sunset or stairway. There are yearly calendars for such information.

Device : HTC Tytn
OS : WM6
When the theme changes at the scheduled time, all elements of the theme change except for the background image. Works fine when I manually use the 'test' option.
Also, its a real pain to have to load up the theme before being able to set it. Also would be nice to beable to edit an existing entry (i.e. change the time and/or theme).
Looking good - and it could evolve into a great little utility.

Are you using a theme and some background picture? Try themes only and see if it happens(Try the themes i posted and test it) I have been using only themes on my TyTn and never experienced any issues so far. Let me know what happens in your test.

Yeah, I know the theme loading is kind of a pain, but I need some additioal info from the theme in order to load it silently! So only when the theme is loaded I can get it from the registry and store it in my program!
Yes being able to edit the time and swich existing themes should be a nice feature! I will do it for next version
Bye the way, thanks for trying it out and giving me the feedback

Thats true, but it is good, if you want to learn binary code, this is best what you can do.

If anyone have some good idea how to improve it, post please!!!

Nice idea, but one little suggestion.
Why not change the display order, like:
Hours
Minutes
Seconds
I think that would make it lot better.

i would like it in a today plugin... but maybe something like this:
h:m:s
0010:010100:110001
all on one line and nice and neat. I would love it just like that
P.S i love that i can hide the 32 16 8 4 2 1 above the binary values so keep that

So, if i've understand well, when a 1 is put you'll need to sum to find what time is it, correct ?
Why no to put it like the binary clocks, like these ones :
This should be very funny to read !

No install, only copy .exe file to your Documents, but you must have installed .NET 2.0, i tried it on iPAQ 4240 and it works fine.

[APP] Diamond BackgroundChanger

I've written a small program that allows you to automatically change the background of your home screen. It works with TF3D only.
Why?
Because it's fun to see a different WallPaper every time you turn on your device.
What?
Diamond BackgroundChanger has the following features:
Ability to specify WallPaper Folder
I suggest you grab yourself a copy of this wonderful WallPaper Pack:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=420906
Ability to indicate whether to change the WallPaper automatically or not
Ability to choose the interval for changing the WallPaper
30 seconds, 1 minute, 5 minutes, 30 minutes, 1 hour, 4 hours, etc.
Ability to add the program to your startup folder
The program saves and restores your settings when restarted.
How?
Just download the attached CAB file and place it on your device.
On your device, tap the CAB file to install the program.
Note: Click YES if you get any warnings.
What Else...
You must click the "Apply" button to start the program.
You don't have to do this if you add the program to your startup folder ("Menu - Add to Startup").
You need .NET Compact Framework 2.0 to run the program.
Please, let me know what you think of it.
Version History
v0.5
-Bug Fixes (null reference, directory that doesn't exist)
-GIF/PNG files can now be indexed too
-Ability to change WallPaper manually
v0.4
-Indicator that shows when the background will be changed
-Fixes to ChangeWallPaper function (might solve null reference errors)
v0.3
-Fixed bug: 4 hours was actually 4 minutes
-Added feature: Add to Startup
-Added some extra intervals
v0.2
-Does not require the application to be running in the background
v0.1
-First Version

hehe,
I was waiting for this app
one small thing:
After changing the Wallpaper directory (and restart)
Wallpaper directory stays on \intern geheugen\....

Oops, the close event was not handled properly. Has been fixed!
You can download the fixed version from the first post. Enjoy!

thanks a lot!!!! Nice app!!

@kevinv2u
Hello!
Nice app and very nice idea from you!
Thank you very much for sharing with us and your work!
Downloaded and installed on my diamond!
But i think there is also still a little bug when the device goes to sleep mode and you wake it up with the power on button my Diamond most times do not respond to the touch screen!?? Like the touchs screen is locked?
After about 20-30 sec the touch screen then worked normaly...
I have the problem only when your program is running in the background... when not the touch screen works perfect when i wake up the device...
Maybe for your next version some comments and wishes from me :
- is it possible that the application starts automaticly when windows starts
- it would be better when it runs as an own process then as an programm in
background mode... because i think then it works also to change
backgrounds when the phone is in sleep mode?
Regards

I've already modified the program so that you no longer have to run it in the background. In the new version it will also work when your device is in sleep mode.
I've updated the attachment in the first post. Please, let me know what you think. I haven't had the chance to test it thoroughly yet.

Wow very fast! Thank you!
I´ve installed your new version! Looks very good!
Now it works fine on my diamond, even the bug, i experinced after wake up the device from slleep mode, with your first version is gone!! No problems till now!
Real lovely app!
One little thing, can you ad longer times for changing the wallpaper to your next version?
Maybe 7h, 12h and 24h??
Thanks

THANKS great app.
Now i can put some photo's from my kids in it as a photo album
Maybe for the next version you could put an extra responce time in it like in the samsung phones, 20 and 30 seconds
That would make this great app a real screensaver.
from now.. your app is running on my diamond

It doesnt work on mine what am i doing wrong?
I got all the required programs installed and the path to my photos is correct but it never changes?

I've changed the program a bit. Yes, again!
Tweaked and optimized it a bit, and added a feature to add it to startup.
@johnboywilson
Please, uninstall your current version. Then install the latest version.
Also, it only works on the Diamond (TF3D). Make sure that the path you've entered is correct. E.g. "\Storage Card\Content\WallPaper". Do you get any errors?

Very nice thank you.
Don't know if possible....

I've had it running for over a day now, and it doesn't seem to drain my battery.
The program only runs at specified times, and doesn't keep running in the background. It only runs for a few seconds and then closes immediately.
If you let it change your background every minute, your battery life might be a little shorter, but then again, the program only runs for a second if needed.

Thanks for your new version and adding the longer times to your programm!
Have installed your new version and seems to run fine on my diamond !!
Great work!!!

Nice app,

Without detailed knowledge about the background of this request, I'd say: try this automation task with Mirko Schenks' MortScript
http://mort.sto-helit.de/index.php?module=page&entry=ms_overview&action=view&menu=29

i just want to send an automatic sms to the service center that request the detail of my usage. i want to keep track of how many MBs and minutes are left from my account
i think you forgot to post the script

fatso485 said:
...
i think you forgot to post the script
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
that was a good one... uups ;-) I'm serious now:
<MortScript>
MortScript is a script interpreter that allows you to do a lot of task automation stuff and even a quite huge command set for implementing logic, it is not a ready-to-run script that matches your "autosms sending" needs. I dont know much about MortScript but I know that is it very powerfull.
</MortScript>
Perhaps you'd like to have a look at this: autosms 0.43 (Feb 04 09), created yesterday
Motivated by ur request, I did some dev playing with sms coding yesterday on the train and here's a WinMobile prog that's doing the job... but caution: this is a very early (and ugly looking) version.
There is currently no MINIMIZE but you can simply keep the prog open.
Some menu items are not set so far, i.e. EXIT. If you want to exit, just use the upper right 'x'.
The STARTBUTTON toogles between Start to STOP and starts/stops the timer.
The first message is sent directly after pushing on START.
When STOPPING, sending shortMessages is stopped and the timer is reset to the cycle time set in the form field 'send every ___ Mins'.
The settings are stored in autosms.ini and are loaded at prog start and saved at prog end.
The prog works fine and stable on my X1, anyway there is an issue with VGA devices but as I told you, this is an early hack...
Be aware: autosms comes "as is" without any guarantees or warranty. You use it for your own risk. autosms automatically sends short messages every X Minutes (preset X to 2000) to the set cell phone number. Using autosms can cost u a fortune, so, I'm not responsible for any financial desaster or data loss or and legal trouble you might produce when bothering others through sms flodding.
so short

thank you so much for your work. it really does work.i need to leave it for a couple of days to test stability. i will also add it to the start up programs
a few things to look into in case you get borded and decide to update this:
-as you said, needs to minimize. starting it again does not seem to work.i had to reboot my device

a few things to look into in case you get borded and decide to update this:
-as you said, needs to minimize. starting it again does not seem to work.i had to reboot my device

good to know. I developed that mainly on my X1 and compiling on XP without the flag "force qvga". I'll provide two versions asap.

sorry!!! I am internally multiplying the field value with 1000 because the internal timer counts in ms... and of cause: 2000 ms = 2 s
next version will have the internal multiplicator 1000 * 60 = 60000

right, this is thought as a quickselect list with predefinded timer settings.
later...

Thanks for the compliment!
I'd like to put a bit more quality in the code before offering it officially to the public. The quality level here at xda dev is quite high and I dont want to push it down

did you try power sms ?

seems like a nice update. .. thanks
will look into power sms after i test 0.44 properly. thanks

Try RJV SMS Scheduler

thank
Thank i will try it out

where were all these replies before. you made snoman reach his 3rd version before answering.......jk
snoman, for text version. how about you make it more friendly for phone startup. i just want to make it easy to autosms start without me having to manually run it and then click "start".
how about you just make it come with another executable (that is fully automatic) that we can create a shortcut to from the startup folder from win directory

good idea. I'll make a parameter just only need to add after the .exe in the shortcut, i.e.
'autosms.exe autostart' if'll then reads the settings from ini and automatically switches into start mode
ok?
(I'm currently at the cabaret, I think this mod is done tomorrow)

Thanks again. I just made the first CAB file for installation. If works fine on my XDA Neo.
Would you mind checking out if it works on ur device?

the cab runs just fine on my device and the qvga wizard. thanks for your work. your program is set to work from startup
now im just being picky with the following wishlist:
-but why did the size grow from 25k to 115k for the same thing. any way of making the cab smaller. maybe recompressing indivsual files?
-not important but also can you somehow make it work as single portable executable (like pimBackup 2.8 that everybody loved to just keep in the SD card)
-also the red square icon is a bit on the plane side how about you just reuse the envelope and stopwatch used in the program as the icon for autosms

Thank you for testing and the reply!

Well, the size is mainly given by the exe and the dll and the bitmap I use and they need approx. 110 KB. My CAB builder does not compress, maybe he cannot or I havn't found the flag. I'll check it out these days.

Beside the need to deliver some dlls the single-file-solution means to give up with saving the parameters like "Cellphone No" or "Message Text" who need at least a file for storage and I'd like to avoid the registry.

Indeed, that's a todo right done after making my own offical program icon.
Let's see what the weeks brings...
