I know there are several apps available for profile switching but I'm looking for some specific functionality.
What I want is an automated profile switch when the mda is on external power.
I think I had a program for this a while ago but due to all the rom upgrades etcetera I seem to have lost it.
Does anybody know which of the known profile apps can do this?
Thanks
haven't come across one that changes the profile based on the charging status however I did have one last year that would react to the GSM cell ID that it was in e.g. if it recogonised the cell at your work it would go into vibrate mode or if it recognised the cell at your home it would switch to quiet or what ever you choose . It was quite neat but I'm damned if I can find it. i'll keep looking.
phoneAlarm will do this
Even Profilws for Windows Mobile does this........ Look at www.winmobileapps.com
Thanks guys, I'll check them out.
Using AP3.0 I seem to have a very unique problem as I can not find any references to it, so I would like to debug the radio or at least look at what is going on between the cell company(fido) and the phone. I have 10+ years of c/c++.
The problem is that the phone is not connecting 50% of all calls in or out. If I dial out, after 3 seconds it hangs up. Inbound calls are fw to vm.
How would I go about producing a log file to begin with?
Thanks
The thread below is for an application built into most WM phones (but not the Athena) which shows the cellular engineering data coming from the celluar radio. Unfortunately most of the functions only appear to work for a very short time before they lock up, which is probably why the application wasn't included in our Athenas. However, it does demonstrate that its possible to interface with the radio - if you can find the documentation that tells you how. Works great on my wife's Tilt.
If you manage to write a similar program that works on our phones, please post it!

Dear forum users,
I'm a happy user WM6.5 with TF3D 2.1. The weather at my location is updated nicely, however there's 1 issue I don't understand:
When I look at my home screen it still says 'My Location' instead of the city name where I live in (Ho Chi Minh city)...this is different from many screenshot I've seen on this forum where weather forecast city names are displayed nicely on home screen.
does anyone have an idea how I could fix this?
Thanks in advance for any ideas/support.
Best regards,
Nghia
Hi there,
I'm having exactly the same problem. The weather tab just stays at 'My location', as does the home tab. I've manually added the city I live in to display the weather, but I'd like to know how to get the phone to automatically detect it. Any help?
I had this problem too and tried lots of fixes I read about here and none of them worked. Then I tried going into my phone settings and changing my phone from "auto" in the Network field to "manual" and then selecting T-Mobile. I'm thinking it was finding AT&T and not being able to determine my location.
Settings>Personal>Phone>Network>Network Selection
After doing this and restarting the phone (airplane mode on/off) it detected "My Location" on the weather tab and then on the clock. I'm in SW Florida and am new to T-mo so i don't know if this will have any undesirable effects.
Not sure if this will affect my roaming, but I don't really roam much so I should be ok. See if it works for you guys.
Hi cocytan,
Could you tell me how to add city manually? My city is not listed in weather list of my phone. I have att, touch2 came from tmo unlock. When I try to update, it said something about not able to connect to dns and web2go.
Thanks.
Same problem here with Blackstone ROM
RUU_Dutty's_HD_WM6.5_5.2.23016.5.0.3_Leo_R5.zip
Update Radio to
HD_Blackstone_Radio_1.14.25.24
Can't get My Location to work...
Did you guys try my tip of manually selecting your mobile carrier in settings>phone>network and set it to manual and then select your carrier? I tried everything before this, and it's worked on every ROM I tried it on.
You can always set it back to automatic if it doesn't work or impacts your roaming.
I'm just curious if others see this fix working, then maybe we can collectively figure out why it's happening to us (is it location, carriers, ROM versions, etc.)
-Joel
Hi a042349,
manually selecting the carrier didn't work for me.
But I read somewhere else that it could work when you enable Wifi.
Doesn't need to be connected, just enabling should do the trick.
And it worked for me!
I tried the wifi trick and it didn't work for me. All my testing was done at my house with only my wifi in range (I live in the country) and it didn't matter if I was using it or not - no MyLocation data until I manually selected T-Mobile.
I'm on T-Mobile in Cape Coral FL - are you on Tmo too? Did you try driving around to pick up different cell towers? As I said all my testing has been at hoime, so not a lot of "variety" in what it could pick up over the air.
-Joel
Hi Joel,
I am on T-Mobile, but it's over here in Germany...
I didn't try different cell towers.
Looks like you have to try both, when encoutering the problem.
Is anyone here who tried both and it still didn't work?
If u change system lang on registry, it´ll work.
Mui lang=0XXX
Cheers.
i tried all of your suggestions but nothing helped it worked one time but since then ...
Gotta say i've only ever had it working once, and even then it was very inaccurate (brought up somewhere about 20 miles away).
I've tried every radio, manual network selection, turning 3g off, i also had to add my own town into the database and nothing works.
Using google maps with wifi, 3g, grps it finds my location to with in 500 metres, with gps it's spot on, so i know that aspect of it works.
However using the weather my location, it rotates between 3 different locations (One is about 1 mile away and the other 2 are about 5 miles away). It'll bring up the name, but always gives me the "There was a connection error while attempting to download weather data. Retry?" message.
so i'm at a loss as to how to get this working.
My location is working for me, i'm using the tmob radio(not the one in my sig but it worked with that one too) its showing a village about a mile from me, and the same on my wifes Hero-Stock ROM. all ive done is load latest Google maps and wait for it to find my location then exit, go to weather tab and select download weather automatically then back, a screen appears to accept google data download, accept then it works,
it seems my location is only as accurate as google maps as it uses the tower positions around you to triangulate you approximate position, when i'm in a town or city it shows that place. i dunno what else to suggest changing my radio helped. i'm not using 3g, maybe that helps?

Interesting
Which setting for syslang would I have to use?
I am in Germany, but my Windows Mobile is English.

I've tried doing everything the same as above and no dice.
Like i said google maps my location feature is pretty accurate for me.
Using google maps with wifi, 3g, grps it finds my location to with in 500 metres, with gps it's spot on.
Sorry i can't help any further..its weird, i'm running At0ms 3.7 but i'm sure it also worked for me on previous builds,
i think on earlier builds i had to also switch data connection on in comms so it stays on - Actually i think this might be be key as i think My Location has trouble calling the data connection which is where your error message is coming from. i hope it works for you.
As you're on Vodafone you could try this reg setting for Agps i don't think it will make any difference but it may do..if nothing else there good settings!

yeah it worked on fusion 3.5 but hasn't worked for me on any other rom.
TVM for the reg settings, i'll give them a whirl.
I've tried everything listed here and am unsuccessful on TF2D 2.5.
Does anyone have the original 2330fc3c_manila file they can upload from 2.5?
Thanks.

I a running shadowline's 23064 build with 2.5.19133431. I was unable to get the location stuff working as well. I turned on all the location settings through SenseUI, but no go. I enabled Assisted GPS through Advanced Config (not sure if that is relevant). Still no go. I allowed my phone to connect up to my home WiFi, and instantly, it recognized my location as Seattle.
Not sure if it will work for others, but it worked for me.

That worked for me at my home in Germany.
Now I am in Italy on holidays.
Same infrastructure here. Working WiFi, too.
But it doesn't do the trick here.
My phone still thinks my location is Germany and any updates just fail.
Think, I am giving up with this build.
Anybody got this working on the hero?
I saw it on the gadget show where the presenter was seeing her friends current position (who was carrying a gps enabled phone) on her pc in real time and she was able to see where she was going etc.
Now i have paired up the pc and my hero but when looking at my profile on the pc it gives my position of a day ago or 23 hours ago!
Is it possible to see in "real time" or is it only able to see past locations?
Thanks in advance

It's working right out of the box for me.
I've been using it since I got my hero.
It works great, I can see all my mates on it in real-time too!
Make sure you've set it up properly...
I set it up on igoogle on my laptop and just added a friend(my hero) and thats all i did. but like i say it doesn't show in real time!
Is there anything in particular i should check for?
Thanks
Gaz
I don't think so, since Latitude worked for me right out of the box, as I got my Hero (before it I was using Latitude on a Windows Mobile device). No configuration was needed at all.

Hmm. No special requirements are needed from the laptop or anything? Just seems strange.I can pair with the laptop ok but it always shows onw day ago???????
Gaz
Google Latitude works fine for me.
Not in realtime but it works
realtime would mean everyone have to update their location all the time with enabled GPS. oh god my battery

Latitude works regardless of the device running it: if a GPS receiver il available you'll get the maximum precision, on a regular phone your location will be fixed out (rather well, to be honest) using WiFi hotspots well-known location, carrier geolocation (if available and applicable) and a number of other less obvious methods.
So, on your Hero it'll work using GPS, WiFi or cell tower location: a laptop is not required.
So, if Latitude isn't working for you I can suggest a double-check at its website, looking for some wrong setting. Please note that you'll have to explicitly activate your location sharing, as it's turned off by default. See here: http://www.google.com/latitude/apps/badge
oooops.............schoolboy error!!!
My calendar was out by a day hence being out by 24hrs....Sorry guys but didn't feel the need to check as it shouldn't be wrong
Do i keep having to refresh the page then to see where it is?
Sorry once again folks

Im looking for a signal streght/ Db meter for my phone. Currently running Energyrom, Touch pro 2, CDMA (Verizon). Ive tried searching the forums and using google, even tring bing, but couldnt find one. I know they are available for blackberry and android, but couldnt come across one for winmo. Any suggestions. Thanks in advance for your help.
FieldTest.exe?
I don't know if it's included in Energy ROMs.
Does something need to be changed in the registry? When I run it I only get -99 for all the tower info and nothing changes.
You can also type in *#*#364#*#* on your phone dailer to get there.
Looked in my windows folder, and no fieldtest.exe in there. So im assuming it was taken out of energyrom. I've also tried dialing that number, found it on another page, and it doesnt work. Any other ideas?
Attached FieldTest.exe

i get that also. it only seems to work right on 2g
I just realized it works when you change your connection to GSM only. If your connection is on 3G WCDMA, you need to hit index then WCDMA and you can see your signal change there.
