Program Request : Minutes Counting - Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General

Hey I didn't find anything via search function and dunno if someone developed a program like this before but I don't think so...
The basic idea is of a program for people who have free minutes like me
It counts the calls and minutes you can choose if it should count in 10 secs or per min and it should have a today plugin showing the rest minutes so there should be a setting to set your maximum mins per month. Then it should reset every month or add up depends on settings again because every contract is different. What do you guys think? Do you think it's easy to write?

sms inbox takes forever to open

...about ~6-7 seconds from the time I tap on it till it opens
any ideas/fixes? :s
It should only take that long to open on the first time after a reboot. Well mine usually takes 5 seconds. But since WM5 doesnt close the app it will sit in the background and should open quite readily there-after.
If the 6-7 seconds after a reboot is tiresome, then I think your best solution would be to keep the inbox clean or perhaps divide the messages into sub folders. Thats about the best I think your going to get as I really havent seen any sms tweaks kicking around.

Data Plans, how many mb you use per day?

Hello,
I was wondering how many mb's you guys run through daily and how often do you use the internet/messenger
for example would 10mb a day suffice? how many instant messages or web pages could i view for that?
Thanks, just looking to compare to see what would be good for me, my 8525 arrives friday
could be anywhere from 21 to 51 mb in a day depending on what i find while browsing for things to install on my Vario II. if it's alot of graphics and downloads like themes and such from Wisebar's site then expect a 50mb day. if it's only browsing here and 4winmobile then closer to 20mb assuming any downloads i do aren't roms for the vaior or any of my other phones
thanks for the reply
i wont be doing much downloading from it except for the occasional mp3, other than that just browsing the net and using aim/msn
do you know how much data an aim/msn message consumes?

It depends on your needs.
I only use it for updating the weather (~ 5kb a time), some instant messaging and some tv text (app I wrote since my tv has no text :') )
I've got a 50Mb limit a month and I use SPB GPRS monitor to monitor my usage.
Last month I've been using it not a lot, because I wanted to be sure that I would not get some suprises on my monthly bill. 10 Mb a month is not that much. But consider using your WIFI too when you're close to a WIFI hotspot.
IM doesn't consume that much, it's more the MP3's. If you've 10 MB a month, than you can download maybe 2 MP3's....
Though I must say that downloading MP3's is not something you should do with your PDA. But that's just my personal opinion.
^Its 10mb a day not a month stated in my first post, although there is a 50mb a day package too i was considering
Im not contemplating downloading a lot of mp3's, but im sure there will be times on the go when i cant get to a wi-fi spot and need to download one.
50 mb a day, would that cover a fair amount of msn/aim and web browsing in one day?
i have no clue about these bandwidth monitors so im not sure how much websites take up(on average)
i can use upto 150mb a day but i also use spb GPRS monitor to make sure i don't go to mad!

REQUEST: Exe scheduler

Is there a program/application for scheduling to run an exe every hour, day etc. I want to run application ie. Free Ram (sktools) say every hour in the background - to recover Ram. That would be nice.
hey pl55, there are many such tools (like runeveryday, search on this forum)
there is another way as well, take a look at my prog (shantztodaychanger, see the sigs), though it is primarily for changing themes every set period of time, it also provides option for running exe's, plus you can block off the theme changing part by putting in the mask option as blank and including all 24 hours in the masked time, so that can also be used for ur purpose.

It's been out for quite a while, atleast a month now... but since it's here if any of you first time installers get an error after install while trying to open/configure/send in the picture mail app saying memory too low just uninstall and reinstall the app. I had this problem on my Mogul/Titan and no matter what the memory condition I couldn't get it to work. Hopefully this will help someone.
im having the same issue...
and ive tried uninstalling and reinstalling it
im still just going to use sMMs until this has the kinks worked out or i get my touch pro
it works for me on my touch except one little bug:
after i send a picture, i get a black bar on the bottom on my today screen and can't seem to get rid of it until i soft reset. I use Ultimate Launch for my today screen and dcinobar.exe to get rid of the bottom soft button display but this black bar takes its place without any functionality. Tried running dcinobar.exe manually again but still doesn't go away.
any suggestions?

I've had this issue with dcinobar, basically I just open and close my keyboard forcing it to redraw.
I keep getting the error - G66: There was an error trying to register your phone.

well when the black bar appears with the keyboard icon i tap on it to show the keyboard and then tap it again to make it go away but the black bar remains. can you be more specific as to what you did to make it go away?
Can someone confirm for me. I have a Sprint Mogul without DATA on my plan. I was tired of it constantly dialing the #777 number for data even when a program wasn't needing it. So, as recommended by someone on the ppcgeeks board. I called Sprint and had them disable data on my account altogether.
I received a picture mail via SMS text the other day. I wasn't at home where I have WIFI. I tried to open it, the #777 popped up but it wouldn't connect obviously.
So, if I had data enabled (but still not paying for it). Would I have been able to open that picture mail? And would I have been charged for using that data to open the picture?
This whole thing pisses me off. We have two phones on a shared account with the $99 vision plan without data. Sprint now has a $99 plan for a single phone with data. If we wanted data on our's, we have to pay an extra $30. What?
if you have data blocked on your account you obviously cant download pictures unless you use wi-fi
if you dont have data blocked and you dont have a data plan then you will get charged per kilobyte...unless you use wi-fi of course...
if you have a data plan there will be no charge...
and data doesnt automatically pop on for no reason...its initiated either by the user or by the phone automatically (for example to update the time or automatically downloading email)
and for a very long time the smallest data plans have been 15 dollars per line
a very long time ago you had 10 net and unlimited text but customer service wont activate those plans anymore and if you have them now you stay in them until you change your plan
the 99 dollar everything plan is an exceptional value...its priced the way it is to 1 prevent overages and customers leaving bad bills because of overages...2 the higher the rate plan a customer is on the more money sprint makes and 3 makes its easier for the rep to set up your plan (they've found that some 20% of customers have their plans intially setup wrong) and the customer to get what they want quickly and easily
130 dollars gets you 1500 mins 2 lines and unlimited messages, data and gps...thats a helluva deal
Soltioun for low Memory problem for Sprint Picture Mail in Sprint Mogul
If anyone has had problem with low memory RAM notice after installing Sprint's Picture Mail program in Mogul, here is the solution:
Sprint tech support emailed with these instructions to solve the problem with low memory for Sprint Picture Mail program: Un-install, soft-reset, and download and re-install the Sprint Picture Mail Program in Sprint Mogul phone. After doing so, the low memory warning for RAM memory was no longer displayed whenever my RAM was occuped in exess of 70%. Good luck.

Unfortunately, I have now noticed that removing and re-installing the Sprint Picture Mail program only initially stopped the low memory warning for RAM memory. Once you soft reset after first use of the program, the same problem with low RAM memory comes back.
Sprint: please fix this program!!!

[Q] Changing time format to 24 hour

Does someone know how to change time format to 24 hour? In KF this option is missing in time settings.
I'm wondering the same thing. Would love to have my KF's time match the 24-hour clock on all my other devices.

That would be good for us Railroaders, we use 24 hour.
Amazon take note and give us the time in 24
I've used ClockSync for 12-hr updating through an atomic time clock. It says it has 24-hr support, so if someone could test out if it can alter the time from 12 to 24.
https://market.android.com/details?id=ru.org.amip.ClockSync&hl=en
App for that
There is a $1.00 app at Amazon (search for B007IVVC42 there)
It is called "24 Hours" and does exactly that, plus it can setup custom numeric format for the date.
