GPRS Connection Selection & Mortscript - Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General

I hope someone can help me or point me in the right direction, I would like to be able to choose which GPRS connection to open before using programs.
I can do this with BatteryStatus but like to keep my today screen simple, like me. I was hoping to use Mortscript to make a shortcut for the different connections. And here is the but, I don't know were to get the relevant info to put into a mortscript file?
I apologise if this is in the wrong section, any help is appreciated.

Quickly Change Network

Hi,
I'm new here and was referred to this forum by another user.
Does anyone know of a program which can quickly change the network (from 3G to wifi), instead of going through all the connections menu and doing it manually. It gets annoying doing it, and someone thought someone had created a program on here, but I cannot find it. I was wondering if anyone is aware of a proggy that can do this.
Thanks guys

Shortcut to Network Cards

Dear Wizard owners,
I have a (propably) simple question. I am searching for a shortcut to the list with found network cards. To be more clear....
Start -> Settings -> Connections -> Network Cards
IF your wifi is turned on you should get a list of found/saved wifi connections. I already had made a link before to 'Running Programs' as can be found in many threads. Just a file with a code; that simple. I hope somebody can give me a similar code for this particular link...? I hope so. Thanks in advance.

This may be what you're looking for -
Network Cards: 34#\Windows\ctlpnl.exe cplmain.cpl,17?\windows\shellres.96.dll,-13888
I'm not sure if 13888 refers to the generic app icon or not, but if it does you can open up the shellres.96.dll in ResHack and find the one you're looking for and change it to that.
By the way, delete the "Network Cards:" part if you use that to create a link, if you didn't know.
Hey Xeno1,
thanks for your quick and adequate reply. EXACTLY what is was looking for. Thanks again!
Bart
No problem. I have a pretty decent list of almost all the links to settings menu apps, and most of their icons in the shellres.96.dll. Let me know if there are any others that you need.

Mort Script changed Comm Manager appearance...

Hi all! I have a little problem on my Hermes, so I decided to ask for help on the best WM forum in the world. I was using MortScript for a few days, and somehow I managed to change some registry values regarding Comm Manager. You can see on the screenshots what happened, and I just want to know what exactly should I change in registry to get things back to normal(I want to see again "Phone" instead of "00000" etc.)? I'm new in PPC world, so I'm begging you to be very specific in explanations. By the way, I removed MortScript in the meanwhile, at least until I learn how to use it...
I solved the problem on my own, so this thread can be trashed.

New User - how to make cabs

Hello,
Forgive me if this has been asked before, I've done a search and haven't come up with an answer.
I'm looking to start making my own sliders and icon sets, can anyone point me in the right direction where I might find out how to do this? (i.e. how to make cab files)
Many thanks.

I'm not a developer or WM skin designer/ROM chef, but I think your question is a little like asking "how do I strike the bottle of Champagne exactly right when I build my first ship and launch it?".
In other words the cab file is the end of the process, the final delivery system for installation by multiple users. I would imagine that a good start would be to have created your sliders and icon sets, understanding of course where the files/icons go on the target system, that they all work properly, tested by friends, which systems are supported is known/documented, etc, etc.
Then you want to put these finished and tested files into a cab file for re-use and/or distribution to others. I'm sure there are some good tutorials (Google is your friend) out there on creating Windows Mobile cab files, when you're at that stage.
Also for general development/app questions a more generic XDA forum like this would be a better place to start.

Always remember that search boxes (Google on the outside, forum search in here) are good things to become proficient at - especially if your goal is learning some new skill.

I use WinCE Cab manager, since it seems to be the best out there. It allows you to package files, registry settings, etc., and has an easy wizard for people who don't know how to use the program. It has a 30 day free trial, and after that, it's $99, but it's worth it if you regularly make and modify CAB files.
Otherwise, if you don't want to buy that, Extendir Cabs is alright for basic CAB file needs. It doesn't do all the comprehensive stuff that Wince Cab manager does, and it isn't as easy to use, but it gets the job done.
Personal favorite for me is QuickCab. Requires zero intellect to figure out how to use it.

I second QuickCab. Only rule is that if the cab is registry values only then you need to add a file (even if it's empty) since it's a requirement. If you're just doing registry values then try this: http://www.fuzemobility.com/make-a-customized-cab-for-your-registry-tweaks/
