Brightness control by sunrise/sunset - Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General

I would like a applicaion who controls the brightness of my HTC automatic on sunrice/sunset times
is there something like this
i know there's a app "twilight" it controls it whitin tomtom but i need it for the whole pda
thanx already

maybe pocket alarm
With pocket alarm you can create profiles.
Brightness is a parameter of the profile.
Profiles activation can be scheduled.
Do not expect the exact sunrise/sunset time, it's you who set the activation time.
Another flawless is that you need to activate pocket alarm as today plugin.

Brightness
This is not exactly what i mean but thanks
Has anyone an othe idea

PhoneAlarm- need feature of PPCProfiles...

Hi all,
I have been using PPC Profiles for some time now- I have recently discovered the PhoneAlarm app...
I love all the features of PhoneAlarm- especially the repeating alarm on sms etc.
I don't really need many of the display items of the PhoneAlarm today bar; what I do want is all the Profiles listed side by side (as with PPC Profiles).
As PhoneAlarm is generally better- is it possible to have the above feature in PhoneAlarm?
So, all I really need is an app that has repeating alarms and profiles displayed side by side. Even an individual app that does the repeating alarm thing would be great.
Thanks.
Hi SH500
I currently use PhoneAlarm, but check out SuperAlert for PPCPhone edition. You should be able to find it at www.pocketfillers.com This is just a repeating alarms app that runs in background, accessible from a icon in the system tray. You can use in conjunction with your current profile software, or try the excellent PocketZenPhone for profile functionality. PZP is available in today screen and system tray versions, so you can keep your today screen really clean with this and SuperAlert.
Hope that helps
Regards
Chris
Nice one- i'll have to look into those software titles.
Thanks.
Phonealarm Profile switching
you can use the buttons of the navigation pad (left-right) on your macigcan to switch between the profiles. this is just like having the profiles side by side. first klick down until the phonealarm is marked, then use right or left to switch.
Orlando- a great tip- even for many others I should imagine.
Thanks.

Stopwatch & Countdown Timer

Hello,
I have just bought a Tytn and about the only function I miss from my old mobile is the stopwatch/countdown function. Does anyone know of any decent freeware that can provide this?
Cheers.
Very simple...but effective:
http://www.deltadevelopment.de/users/christoph/deltaTimer/
I've tried a few countdown program (for my cookings and laundry), but they seems to have the same problem (including the one stated above), all of them are running on a background task basis. Once you have the program switch off (some doesn't even survive a phone off) and the timer stops. Non of the software I've tested actually runs on notification queue (like the way WM5's reminders are based). Hence, I actually use my alarm program as count down timer.
Thanks for the replies.
This program do not wake up my device when it should ring.
Spb Clock is great timer application, but it has the same issue.

Task Scheduler controlling the PDA Settings Directly?

I'm hoping someone can assist me - I'm looking for a task scheduler for the Ameo that allows me to configure the PDA settings. For example, of an evening, I setup the Ameo to charge on my bedside table, with the SPBClock running in fullscreen screensaver mode, so I can look across in the middle of the night and see what time it is. However, each night, I have to change the settings to drop the screen brightness down to minimum so that the glare doesn't fill the room too much. And each morning, I have to turn the brightness up again so that I'm able to use the device in the day.
I'd like to be able to schedule this automatically. Also, I'd like to be able to configure the volume control to set itself to a standard setting each evening (quiet, but not too quiet) then change the volume again in the morning.
Id also like to schedule programs to start up/close down at scheduled times, but I think most task schedulers do this anyway.
Recommendations please?
Phone alarm sounds like the most likely candidate..

I use PhoneAlarm and it will do this. Only issue is WiFi control is a little flakey, but I think that's a WM5 issue in general. PhoneAlarm also has other nice features. I'm a fan. It does have a nice skin that works well with TrueVGA.
Looks like it could do the job - I've installed it, so I'll see how I get on with it and do a review. Nice and cheap as well for purchasing the full version. Cheers All!

Vibrate Scheduler

Whats up guys
I was wondering if there was a program out there that lets you schedule vibrate on/off. This would be really useful so that it would change before and after classes, after 11:00pm or whatever.
Thanks guys
Joe
The HTC home plugin mod by kaiser will do this
Search the forums for 6 tabbed htc home!
Just a quick explanation of how this works. the HTC Home plugin has four options for setting the volume/vibrate of the phone. Normal, silent, vibrate, and automatic. Automatic is the one your looking for. Basically, what it does is put your phone into silent when you have an appointment in your calendar. The only problem is that it doesn't take into account whether the appointment is listed as "free" or "busy". I personally wish it would not silence the phone when the appointment is listed as free, but you take what you can get.
so it's tied to the calendar ?
you cannot schedule it to do it at certain hours even though the calendar is empty ?
I think PhoneWeaver does what you are looking for (if im not mistaken)

Or PhoneAlarm.
Any suggestions of programs that don't need to take over the Today screen? I'm using Windows Mobile 6.5 default today screen which doesn't seem to have automatic vibrate like TouchFLO 3D had.. I'd also rather have it as automatic silent, not vibrate, so I still need a real program even if I go back to TF3D.

I agree... best choice you will not be disappointed
Definitely buy G Alarm. There is also a hack on these forums so it opens from the the alarm tab on the home screen.
Amazing program. Can set alarms for anything.
I found that if I turn off the HD2, the alarm not working when times come...?
I just over slept because of this.
More then 3 alarms
Currently you have 3 alarms.
Is it possible to change some parameter in the registry from the hd2 to change the count of alarm clocks displayed ?
Can any one tell me ?
thanks
