another way or a program to turn the flash light up? - Mogul, XV6800 General

Is there a program or a way to turn the flash light on? I want to assign it to one of my hard buttons and don't like going into camera then pushing the flash on everytime i want to use it.

Don't know if it works on your device, as it wasn't designed for it, but I wrote VJCandela to do this on older devices.

I use this one:

It's great and I have it assigned to a button just as you describe. Comes in very handy when digging in a computer or server racks.

does anyone know where i can put this exe so i can assign it to a button? i tried programs folder and windows folder and it doesn't show up on the list under settings > buttons
i also try putting the exe in the apps folder, no luck

I actually have it on my memory card... I think it gets registered as an application the first time you run it, then it can be added to the menu... it's been so long, I don't remember exactly.

Install the cab below, then go to /Windows/Start Menu/Programs folder and make sure flashlight.lnk is there and you will be able to assign it to a button like me.

the OP would need this, mine has been working all along

nice, thank you

hotvoice.exe for 8525?

I see the hotvoice.exe in the /Windows directory, but it doesn't seem to run for me... nor does it show up as a valid Button assignment. It worked fine on my 8125... did Cingular not include this in the ROM?
hotvoice.exe was linked as the Record button on the 8125. I can launch Notes and voice record from there, I just wanted a more direct way to get there.
Is there a way for me to copy it from my 8125?
Thanks,
Mike

What ROM are you on? If you do not use PTT, using the leaked Cingular 2.06 ROM then you can do the following. Remap one of your buttons to the app. You must create a shortcut to it first so that it shows up in the app list when you try to remap buttons. If you do not want to change your normal buttons try Sleuth's PPTFix to use the PTT button to launch the app.
I'm still working thru the info here as a newbie to the ROMS...
My Device info says ROM 1.34.502.1, however I'm not sure that corresponds to the general #'s I see flying around (I have read the Wiki, and while there's a lot of good info, its also written with a lot of assumption that you already know a lot of the lingo)....
Anyway, I have tried linking to the app from the Programs folder..and that link does show up in the Buttons list... but I can't get the app to launch, period

OK, you've got the stock ROM, look for and install Sleuth's PTTFix, create a shotcut to Hotvoice.exe on your 8525, and map the PTT button to the hotvoice app. It will only show after creating the shortcut in \Windows.
I've installed the PTTfix and the PTT button works fine. While this gives me extra buttons, this shouldn't be needed, should it? (ie. any reason why I can't assign Record to buttons 1-4?)
But hotvoice.exe will not launch.. I cannot launch it from the file explorer either.
Given that Record does not show up in the default list of buttons (as it does on the 8125), it seems like it doesn't work, at least not in the default ROM??

Yes, you can change them to whatever you wish, I was just providing another suggestion. I prefer to leave my standard buttons as they are.
Ok, so the basic problem is that it appears that hotvoice.exe does not execute on my Hermes (regardless of button assignment)
I guess the question is whether or not it is supposed to run on my stock ROM? and/or if there is a way to add it.
Thanks,
Mike

You need a shortcut that calls MSVOICE ( I found this in one of Sleuth's threads)... See below for link to shortcut... Note: you must copy it to \Windows\Start Menu\Programs and map one of your buttons 1-4 to it. I read it will not work on button 5, so if you need to launch an app that you had mapped to its original button, you can remap that to 5 if needed. Note also that you will have a Record icon in programs, it doesnt work if you try to launch it from Programs, only by assigning to a button.

Weird.. I thought I had tried exactly that, about 5 times
But since it ain't broke no more, I'll stop trying to fix it.
Many thanks for your help!!

No problem, I found that the difference is in how the shorcut is made. If you look at the content by opening it with Wordpad on your PC for example... you can see differences in the shortcuts... some ppl where making shortcuts to hotvoice.exe and renaming the shortcut to Record.lnk, some were renaming wrong... but this works for sure.
hotvoice.exe not working
Mike & ercave1, I'm also looking into usign the hotvoice.exe. I have the new ROM, even downloaded the shortcut link and nothing happens. Via Resco Explorer, I first unhide the files to view hotvoice.exe. there I find the hotvoice.exe which is 3K, and hotvoice.lnk (14B) I create a new shortcut from the .exe to the start menu. Nothing happens, I used the shortcut that ercave1 recommended and nothing. Looks like the hotvoice.exe in the Cingular 8525 new ROM and perhaps original ROM does not work or is corrupted. Looking at the attributes, hotvoice.exe shows the following: Read-Only, Hidden, System, ROM. Any help would be greatly aprreciated.

How are you accessing the .lnk? Use the shortcut from the zip file.
You must place it in \Windows\Start Menu\Programs (this makes it visible in the button map app)
Then remap one of your buttons 1-4 to Record. Soft Reset.
I applied this today on my 8525 without a problem.
Yes, i unzipped the link from the file i downloaded, then i transferred it to the start menu. No luck on that. I also have a program called SKTools and there is an option to configure the 5 buttons of the 8525. It allows me to browse by file or by Alias. I noticed one of the ALIAS is :MSHOTVOICE. I tried that ALIAS along with another called :MSVOICE to no avail (I did a reset BTW). Do you have the new ROM or the original cause im not getting this hotvoice to work at all.

Don't understand what is happening I will try and create a cab to install this... I'm on the 2.06 PTT enabled ROM, but that should not matter...
Record cab
For those having problems creating the shortcut try this...
Install the CAB, then navigate to Start>Settings>Buttons then select one of the four buttons to modify and set it to Record, tap OK and test the button.
Let me know how it goes.
That fixed it for me.
Thanks.

Glad it worked for you, unfortunately it's not working for me. There must be a thrid party application or setting that must of corrupted the hotvoice.exe. Next time I do a hard reset, I'll give it a try. Thanks again ercave1 for your help.
Hi guys, I am new to this forum but have read and benefitted from some of your posts.
Zim,
Not sure if this is what you are looking for, but the Notes app is setup to do voice records on the 8525. I will grant you this... there are absolutely NO instructions about it in the manual so I had a hell of a time finding it, but through looking around I finally discovered this.
Just open Notes and then click Menu>Show Recording Toolbar. Now you can record voice records all you want and it puts them in your notes folder for review.
Then, of course, you can map any of your buttons 1-4 to the Notes app and, since you selected to show the recording toolbar, all you do is press the mapped button and then "New" and speak.
Hope this helps (someone).

cool thanks, this seemed to help.
it is odd for me the record short cut will not work directly but if map the button to it, it will work and as long as you hold the button in. it keeps recording till you are out of time.
as jwpetree said the the other way to use the recorder is to open notes 1st.
now to find a tweak to give more recording time.

UPLOADING UPDATED FILES YOU NEED TO REPLACE THE AUTOOFF.MSCR!!!!
Hi there with this collection off scripts you get the possibility to power on/off your device with TF3D enabled, also a little auto Off Function is Included.
Just download the attached zip folder and unpack all files to the root of your device.
Then copy TF3D-DisplayOff-mscr to your programs folder and map it to a button.
Now run the writenotification.mscr, (you need this file just at the first time, do not run it twice)
Now reboot your device with tf3d disabled in today plugins.
After reboot you should notice that TF3D starts.
Now with the button you mapped the tf3dDisplayOff Script to you can put your device to sleep with a keypress.
To power it back on just press power button.
If TF3D is disabled you can start it with the maped button too.
After 5 minutes a windows apear which will ask if device should go to sleep, if you press yes or do nothing device goes to sleep, if you press no the window will reapear in 5 minutes, i make that cause i miss that device with TF3D won't go automaticlly to sleep.
To remove the scripts just run remove notifications.mscr and delete the files.
hey i can't seem to get it to work on my nike..
how do you run writenotification.mscr???
My device says: first run program, then file.
And do you know a way to reload the clock so it starts on 00:00 and then flip down. Mine only does that when i enable the plugin the first time after it has been disabled.

Do you have MortScript installed on your device?
Just open the file like an audio file for example.
what do you mean by unpack all files to the root of your device.
in the attached zip file are several mscr files. Copy them to the main directory of your phone
can't work for me.... i must locate files in windows folder or anywhere in my device? when i click on mscr file WriteNotification.mscr nothing happens why?

and now place a second copy of TF3D Displayoff.mscr in \Windows\Start Menu\programs\HERE...
Before you start right press remove notification and open it, and noe the same with erite notification.
Now map TF3D Display OFF to a button of your choice and disable TF3D in today plugins and restart.
If it works you will notice that TF3d start...

This prog. freezes up my Kaiser to the point of a soft reset. I see TF3D start automatically after a reset, but when I press the assigned soft key to 'sleep' the screen goes off for a second, comes back on, TF3D is gone, and the unit is unresponsive...
doesnt work...I followed your instruction explicitly....and 1 after the inital reboot...tf3d doesnt come up and when activating the TF3D Displayoff.mscr its just dims my screen...howeever I'm still testing

If anyone here is playing around with TF3D for qvga or the drivers you should know that everything with this is still instable and beta´.
The script to it works on some roms and on some not,
If i hear questions like what is mort script and so on i think noone of you should anything of this, caus you are unable to use a search button.
Next versions of the script are posted in the new TF3D Manila dev. forum.
I think everything is posted there (that has to do with manila) until development is ready.
Cause everyone here is always asking the same questions.
If someone can't get rid of the notifications.... mmhhh.... search and you will find a solution how to edit the notifications on your your phone. Hard reset was not needed.

on the contrary..due to time...a hard reset was needed..I dont have time at this particular moment to dig and search for a solution... it is much less time consuming for me to harrd reset and restore from a back up. If you have solution to the notifications issue you should have posted it ...not trying to diss you but seriously...what was the point?
If after the write notifications script, you start the remove notification script all is good.
look into the scripts and you will see that the one does the oposite of the other.
Don't know why it dowsn't work for you.
Try the attached one, it doesn't do anything with notifications, in the archive there is a readme file.
If you don't want this anymore just delete the scripts and the lnk file(make a backup of the old one if it's there)

I have been using this most recent one and it has proven to be the best solution thus far! Is there any type of update on this method since your last post? I am not a member of the developers forum but I feel you are on the right track and hate to be excluded from future developments.
Thanks for all of your work!!!!!
Great, work. This is really the workaround that makes TouchFlo3D worth it for me. The turning off is smooth, whilst it takes a bit too long to switch on (I know that's touchflo and not your script).
I couldn't get the autooff to work. The instructions say to paste the autooff and poweron in the root folder. Shouldn't poweron be in the windows/startup folder? Otherwise I don't see how that script is being called? Or are the scripts in the root folders run automatically?
Is the newest mortscript beta release required for the latest version of this to work? Or would 4.05 or 4.1 do just as well?
Thanks for the good work!
Edit: Ah, the short_power.lnk calls poweron. But doesn't that means you have to manually enter standby and then wake up every time you softreset?

[ How to ] : Turn off your Touch HD without pushing the power button!

Hi guys,
I'm fairly new here, but I thought that I should join in on the contributions and give back to the community, because I've already had countless hours of help just by searching through the knowledge (mostly garbage though..) that can be found through the search engine! Anyhow, after through much sifting, I managed to create a nifty little tool to help you turn off your Touch HD via software. What's the purpose of this? It is simply to preserve the lifespan of your power button. For some reason, the powerbutton and volume buttons just don't seem too solid to me (mainly the powerbutton).
Enough wish-wash, let's get down to it!
What you need:
1) HTC Touch HD (It may work on any phone with a 480 x 800 layout, I'm not sure, I only had enough money to buy a single phone)
2) If you don't already have it, get Mortscript and install it onto your phone.
3) Now, download the tiny attachment and extract the "Auto Shutdown.mscr" file within it. Place this anywhere you'd like, on your Desktop for example.
Baby-Step-by-Step instructions:
1) Connect your phone to the computer. Mine is set via USB only, no active Sync. Copy/Cut the "Auto Shutdown.mscr" file to any location on the phone's storage.
2) Disconnect USB, and unplug the cable.
3) Go to File Explorer, and look for your "Auto Shutdown.mscr", wherever you placed it earlier and copy/cut the file.
4) Navigate your way to the phone's storage via File Explorer, and go to Windows > Start Menu > Programs > MortScript >
5) Paste the "Auto Shutdown.mscr" there.
6) Soft-reset.
And, that's it! I asked you to place the .mscr file inside the MortScript folder because this prevents you from accidentally pressing the file when viewing the Programs menu. If you're going to add the .mscr file to the TouchFLO shortcut list, I strongly suggest you put it all the way to the bottom to prevent accidentally presses as well. After all, upon pressing, your phone will shutdown.
Having said that, you can also now use this with Cyberon Voice Commander or Microsoft Voice Commander, so it's really quite awesome in my opinion.
If someone has already posted something like this (I don't remember seeing any when I searched though...), feel free to ignore this entire post of blabber and move along already, I can't believe you had the patience to read till this last word!
Enjoy! I know I am!
Cheers.
EDIT: I've uploaded a new file down below. Download that file instead. This will now work with any phone running WM 6.1 and higher. I am not certain if this will work on WM 6.5 based cores as I am not sure how the Shutdown process works.
I can't imagine that the power button (nor the volume buttons) will take any damage by simply pressing them. I'm doing so for five months now (pressing them often during the day) and haven't noticed any damage.
The only think to consider is the fact, that you have to press the power button on the left side. You don't need to press it hard then.
Anyway I think there are enough exe files, which will shutdown your device, so writing a MortScript isn't neccessary at all.

John,
Thanks for the input. See, I thought my power button was funky when it was only more responsive on the left side, at least now I know that the phone was made that way. To each his own I guess (I am very compulsive when it comes to the care of a new gadget, sometimes a little insane), I just got the phone like 2 days ago, so I'm still just finding my own balance on what is comfortable and preferable for me. I just thought I'd share it with you guys, that's all .
My philosophy when it comes to doing things is to do things with the least amount of resources, in this case, installing the least amount of programs. I see MortScript being very useful for me in the future in doing certain things without having to install more .exe files.
Cheers!

Using your tool might help to use the power button 10 years or more. I bought my device in Germany. Here we have 2 years of warranty and I don´t plan to use my Blackstone very much longer.

Matt,
I honestly cannot tell if you're trying to be condescending, patronizing or what have you. If you honestly don't want to use the script, simply don't, I'm not begging you to use it. It's really that simple. If you must go out of your way to put other people down for things they've shared, then I simply feel sorry for you.
But okay, thanks for the response.
Cheers.

Guys,
I've actually tweaked it a little bit. I am currently using the attached version. The attached version will work with any phone of any resolution (I think it has to be WM6.1 and above).
Still reading up on the Mortscript language, very nifty, I must say! Enjoy!
Cheers.
I used my last phone (XDA) for five years. The power button went after a couple of years. Ok it really got smashed in as it fell off a two story scaffold on a construction site so I might just bookmark this page for later use.
can we just put the .msr into the programs folder and without installing the mortscript, will it work?

Bigdeal88,
No, you need mortscript because it is the parser. Mortscript is the program that reads and processes/parses the .mscr files. It is essentially a simple script reader.
Why do you ask? Are you not able to use Mortscript?
Cheers.

hi,
this application is just too great to be missed. its just that i am lazy to try mortscript.. would be wonderful if there is a cab file. nonetheless, am dnloading mortscipt now to give this prog a try.
thanks alot!
Hi, i followed the instructions, installed mortscript and copy the file, reset phone. When i click the file "shutdown process.mscr" i get a warning.
Window "Warning" could not be found.
Line 2 (\windows\start menu\programs\mortscript\shutdown process.mscr):waitforactive("warning", 10)
Thanks.
thanks for your effort.

Ruguk,
Are you using WM 6.1? The script assumes that you have the "PowerOffWarning.exe" available in your Windows folder. I would assume that all WM 6.1 would have this file.
@Zolom,
You're welcome.
Cheers.
Hi, my version is just 6. So i guess thats why i don't have PowerOffWarning.exe in windows folder. Maybe its time to upgrade my phone or search more for a full shutdown soft.
Thanks.

Ruguk,
There is no need to mate. Go to your windows folder and browse the contents. I assure you, you will find something along the lines of PoweroffWarning.exe. Just keep looking. When you think you've found the right file, just try pressing on it and see if the warning window pops up. If that's the one, then you've got the right file. All you do then is open the .mscr file with notepad and modify the PowerOffWarning.exe name to the name of whatever it is that you found. It is important that you leave the formatting exactly the same as it was.
Cheers.

I had been looking for a app that could turn off the phone.
I hate having to hold the power button.

Cyberhern,
Haha, you're welcome. But if you don't mind installing a third party program and filling up the registry with an additional couple of lines, look for the PowerOptions software in the Development and Hacking section.
Cheers.

File names for apps

hi Everyone,
Ive just finished configuring the iphone skin with my custom icons and texts and I need to know what some apps are called in WM6.
Ive created a button called exit which closes the skin launcher and takes you back to windows. I want this button to do the same as clicking on Today in the start menu. Does anyone know what app runs when you click Today in the start menu.
Also at the moment it will only launch .exe's. Does anyone know how to get it to go to a folder in file exploroer instead. e.g. if i click games then i want it to go to windows\start menu\games but it wont as its not an .exe.
Thanks.

Well MortScript can do the trick i guess
check this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=542582
Thanks for the reply. I've downloaded it and it seems to work although im having trouble getting the correct command.

well i guess you can ask in the thread or a mortscript thread about commands i'm pretty sure that there are much more knowledgeable users of this forum about mortscript than me (i know nothing)

I've been looking...can you help?

I'm looking for some cabs:
1. A cab that will allow me to select more than one file to copy/cut/paste
2. How to make the lists in folders smaller (as in the Energy Roms)
That's it...unfortunately, don't know their names-hence my issue in finding them.
Currently running Xanny Evo 17b

1. You mean like a file explorer which allows you to select one than one file?
Resco explorer (3rd party app), file explorer 2 and I think total commander and basic file explorer on most roms also does this
2. Some file explorers you can change view in options or do you mean amount of files in programs etc. If the latter you create more folders like 'tweaks' etc in /windows/start menu/programs and then move your desired file into this folder
Thanks, but let me clarify...
You (and I) both use Xanny. What do you use to select more than one file in a folder (music, for example)? It's irritating copying/pasting/cutting only one file at a time.
As for #2, I would.like to get rid of the finger friendliness when listing files. With Xanny, for example, all files have a double space between them,.and the font is relatively large.(for ease of choosing). At this time, only 7 items can be seen at a time. Would like it single spaced.

Well to be honest I use Resco Explorer to select more than one file. You can either select all or use the 'multi-selection' mode. Open your folder containing music, then go to menu > edit > multi-selction mode then select the files you want before you either move, copy, run them etc
Thought i'd post in here as I'm looking for some cabs too. I've searched for 3 days and it's time to ask. Can anyone please tell me the name of the program that adds the buttons to the bottom of the home screen like this >screenshot< shows (camera, opera and comm manager buttons)? I'm sure everyone knows the name... except me.
I've searched for maxmanilla, home plugins, home buttons, sense ui, etc. and I've found pics of this all over the forums but haven't been able to find the exact name of this cab/program/plugin, without installing a whole new rom.
Cheers.

Thank you. That is exactly what I was looking for. Solved both #1 and #2. Thanks again.
With regard to stuntdouble's question: There is no cab to enable the shortcuts, you will need to update your ROM to one of the 6.5.x HTC Sense versions that have that as a feature. Look in the Roms section and pick out something that looks good to you. But don't ask which one is best, as it's all a matter of taste.

Ah ok thx. That's a shame because I love the Topix rom. Guess I'll have to try out a load of roms again. Cheers for the info.

Yeah telegraph0000 is correct, you'll need to flash a wm6.5.x rom to get those buttons on the home screen.

Backup your ROM and try one for the heck of it. If you don't like it, reflash Topix and restore the backup. Nothing lost, but some quality family time...and who doesn't have that to spare
Total Command also allows multiple file selection. However I've only been able to access the feature in landscape mode. I haven't really delved into it too much.
Flip to landscape, click on "Ctrl" (a new button that appears in the toolbar) and you'll be able to select more than one file.
