[Come on!] Develope a photodial today plugin! Please! - Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General

Hi there.
I ahve tried many different soulutions to get a todayplugin working on UL or else that can:
- use photos from Outlook contacts
- speeddial with single tap
- choose sms, call, email
- easy apllying contacts
I only found:
- makecall.exe = difficult to customize and need of own made icons
- vjphone = also difficult to customize
- dialtab.cab = floating arround - seems to be part of SPB Mobile shell - very easy! great! BUT not freeware. shows "trial expired"
So how difficult can it be for some of you guys out here to create a plugin that works 100% ???
Hope someone will join this project. I WILL try everything. But i´m not a programmer!
THANKS for helping!

Hi papmopps, have you tried face contacts? There is a free demo: http://www.cnetx.com/products/contact/

i don´t have it installed. it is cooked in... and not the complete one. BUT only a selfmade cab for ONLY the photodialpart on today.

New App Should Be Made
While I like and use the Face Contacts photo dial, I think thats the name, I too think a new app should be created. When the Diamond came out, it opened up a whole new level to today plugs for us WM users. The functionality of the photo dialer plug on that device is leaps ahead of other software. Its functional, and by god its beautiful.
I cant wait to see these plugs start getting ported over for our devices. Until then , I hope one of you geni's on here make something to hold us over. Actually, knowing how most of you all operate, you'll make something that puts the Diamonds Contact Plug to shame!!!

this is what you need!

just found out the one i linked to was originally by TofClock, known as TofClock Today Plugin, i think he passed on reading some posts so RIP, peace.

The "testtoday" would be the best one, but you may know that there were complaints from Palm about this being posted!! At least that's if my memory serves me correct.

that´s teh problem. but it should be so difficult to create such an app for a developer!

well, rltoday can read registry values, if the contact list is somehow linked there inside, you should be able to make some sord of tool...

I was also searching for this kind of software for a long time. I would say, I tried everythig.
Till now the best solution was htc home and the cube, they act just how i would suppose and like it.
I would like to add something to this request: make it flexible, so you can specify something like x rows and y columns on your screen, I don't like those one-line plugins.
For the meanwhile I would really really love to see a tool to convert contact-pictures to icos.

Hey,
I second this request!
Will pay a good donation for a good quality plug-in.
Requirements:
1. Adjustable contact grid eg. 3x3, 4x4, 5x5
2. Photos pulled from outlook database.
3. Skinable.
4. Low memory footprint.
Pleeeeeeze!

Or This?
I saw this one posted earlier today.
http://solsie.com/2008/11/elecont-dialer-for-windows-mobile-released/
It's not freeware, but $6.95 isn't bad.

Today Plugins: which is most used?

Cause of low memory space i need to know how many users prefer a today plugin instead another.
Ps: If is Others (must have similar today functions of the softwares in the poll) , please write something about it!
Thanx for your contribute and sorry fotr my BAD english!
SkizZO: that's a very big question. What do you want your plugin to do? Many of us use many different plugins for very different reasons.

I generally use cLaunch as a launcher, or my own plugins. But if you want to read about different plugins, please have a good long read here and here.

I know I know (...i've forget claunch!!!)
You have to install ONE of this Plugins, and i want to discover which is most used by Magician users.
As a task closer, I use my VJOkButt. It's not perfect, but it works well for me. For launching, I use cLaunch. With SmallMenu as a startmenu replacement, that's pretty much everything I need.

I use PZP.

PzP Has not the function to put icons on the today screen...
however i hope spb is + used... but isn't a little heavy??
Currently i'm running Ilauncher (for icons)+ GSPocketMagic (taskManager)
(+Pocketweather+PZP+Egress+messaging)
and i would to change this "configuration"
@vijay555: i am talking of Today Plugin that put icons on the screen (and others individuals functions)
I use Resco explorer's Plug in.. I find it very nice and light... it shows battary, memory..etc, also allows you to add your own apllications shortcuts into the today screen....
very nice one indeed

You did not specify that in your original quote. You just mentioned Today plug-ins, not specifically ones that allow you to add icons.

ok you've right! but all the software in the Poll has this function.
xcuse me
Calendar+ and PPCprofilesPRO.
Regards,
Arto.
Currently ?
- JGUI Zodiac Date (jeus for the date, and it doesn't pop up anything if you accedently tap it )
- tAgenda (used to have Tasks, Inboy and CalenderPlus, tAgenda makes all three obsolete)
- Oh, and Nakka's TDLaunch, because it let's can configure Iconsize and margins !
Not really a Today Plugin, but it replaces Todays info perfectly : W-Tools ResInfo (yes, Battery stats, Storage and Mem gauge in the Tray! It even shows charging )
My taskmanager is PocketNav, and i use the camerabutton as TodayToggleOFF and the memobutton for TodayToggle (Hi Vijay ! Great tools ! Normaly i would have taken a dozen pictures of side of my pants !
Now nothing really serious happens if the buttons get pushed accedentaly!)
Wow, someone actually uses TodayToggle?!
There's a name I haven't head for a looong time
I like it, but I will really have to think of something useful to do with that app some day!
V
Well, it's usefull enough for me.
I used to have "Today" under a button, but always shutdown the PPC afterwards, so.......
And if i use TTN5, i don't want to PPC to trun of, hence....
AND i always had a problem with accendently pressing the side buttons, and now the at least don't open "Tasks" or like i said, worse; the camare and starts shooting...
Btw, i tried Hidestart, but it doesn't seem to do anyting but temp. show time and batt %....
I'm still looking for all kinds of "Thumbs only" or "Thick fingers" solutions, i use my PPC a lot 'one handed' or in the car...
Espec. setting snooze to 15 min. or so in the car is considdered 'reckless driving'
I haven't developed HideStart any futher than a very early preview a long time ago. I've got some ideas about changing the way notifications are presented, particularly in VJSihaya, but I still like the idea of HideStart.
However, I think that when you "ghost" reminders, they still try to silently activate themselves from time to time, which causes your current app to lose focus, which is irrititing if you're typing something. I thought it was a bug in my code until I realised this. However, I still use it to ghost reminders from time to time when I'm too busy to snooze them all
It's possible some code I wrote for the upcoming release of VJOkButt (used to get around incoming call notifications) might be of help here... but HideStart is not a priority right now unfortunately. I actually just developed it for my own use in a modified version so that I could switch between Start Bar, New Bar and ToggleToday. It shouldn't really have been released, but I thought the reminder remodeling code was a useful idea to demonstrate... more later, I've got work to do

So do i, if it worked If i only could find a decent prorgamming/scripting language for the PPC. Although Mortscript is pretty nice, it misses so features....
And i'm not really a programmer, more like a scripter... Maybe i should take some time to dive into VB or eVB (I can do quite nice things in Acces on the desktop !)

No prob, i just see whats floating a round and use it if possible. I don't ask around to create solutions for me...

Anyone know a Today Plug in that can do this?

I was wondering if there is a today plug in that will allow me to write or type my own message and show up on my today screen permantly (and allows me to change it through settings)?
Doesnt thebuild in tasks plugin work for you?? Or you want a more "post-it" notes kinda feel??
I just want like one line on my today screen to write whatever I want....for example......like the owner informations with phone number is 2 lines.....I want to disable that and write my own information in one line.....doesn't have to be owner info....just anything I want.....it's kinda hard to explain.....and I want to to be able to use chinese characters to write too.....

tbito, this was exactly what i was thinking of recommending to kiru...and i can confirm that it works with wm2005. i'm using a mio a701 and this is one of my plugins.
Yes, NotesToday is one of my staples. I think it's very useful.
I tweaked the default skin slightly to allow me to minimise it to a dot, (just above the weather plugin)

"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",

"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
and then maximise it to normal:
I didn't end up using it much, but nice idea, well implemented, and well worth the $5.
V
hey vijay, very interesting the way you made it look so small and efficient! mind sharing it? :wink: interesting little application; although i don't use it as much it's good as a quick scratch pad for all occasions...
Someone just emailed me about the skin.
I've found a copy on my ftp - I haven't used the plugin for a while, because I'm still migrating my setup to WM5 and deciding on new plugins.
But hopefully this is the skin shown:
http://www.vijay555.com/vj/!tools/notestodayskin/notestoday_skin_new.zip
I modified the skin to take almost no room, but be stylus selectable, but particularly selectable with the dpad. I can't remember if I had to edit the registry, but basically you can switch minimised and maximised mode by scrolling down the today screen with the dpad and clicking enter. It'll shrink/expand accordingly
V
Hi Vijay,
I Guess this is off topic. But on one of the screenshots your have an extra blue bar underneath the start button. With two arrow vertical up anddown at the start and sms, phone, and bluetooth etc. in it. I also saw some sort of profiles program with the same arrows in a later screenshot. with seems like profiles to me.
Are those programs the same and if yes, which program is it? I'm tried several programs Pocket Zen phone and WM Profiles. But wasn't happy because the vibrate function didn't work properly on my wizard.
Let me know, thanks.
Cheers
Shah
Shah, the blue bar near the top in my 18 August 2005 screenshots is an early version of my PhoneAlarm skin. This was refined into the one you can see in my 5 April 2006 screenshot, at the top of the screen (being used via my VJToggleToday program).
This is used to select profiles (where the normal "Vibrate" icon is at the top of the screen, clicking this brings a drop down menu with my profiles, Work, Home, Silent, FlightMode)
PhoneAlarm is excellent, generally. Profiles are a very basic feature on any phone, and it's mindboggling that it's not a standard feature, but I like PhoneAlarm, and Bruce, the author (you can also see my slightly hacked version of AlarmToday as well in the screenshots).
My 5 April 2006 screenshot also shows claunch at the bottom (apologies for the stupid icons, I lost some icons when I changed phones), being used to change PhoneAlarm profiles with my thumb. So I can make calls/send SMS using VJPhoneTools, change profiles (PhoneAlarm), and launch selected apps all from the same plugin.
V
Vijay, do you not find PhoneAlarm is resource-heavy?
Also, is that skin on your home page? (I've had a look and can't see it)

Hi Guys,
First: THANKS YOU vijay555 for giving me the skin files! (I'll mail you later with my findings, regarding VGA and landscape use)
Second: Does anyone have the other zips that were placed on the NotesToday website? (which is offline now , anyone know why?)
Cached version of the page with the zips I mean:

Thanks in advance.
Cheers!
Puzom:
I may have the skins at home. Frankly, it's easy to write your own. The standard skins are nothing exciting!
Webreaper:
My phonealarm skin is towards the end of the first post here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=27331&highlight=vjtoggletoday
I've used PhoneAlarm for pretty much my whole year on XDA devs, and never found it to be a problem on resources. There are simpler ways of doing what it does, but it's useful, and gives me easy control of profiles etc. Bruce is filling it up with stuff I can't imagine needing, like cell based profiles etc, but I'm happy with the basics - notifications, mail count, profiles etc.
PhoneAlarm or a similar app is essential IMHO for effective use of the phone.
I've had trouble with AlarmToday since upgrading to WM5, but the old WM2003 version was flawless and very useful too.
V
Thanks Vijay. Your skin looks the simplest and neatest I've seen.
I really liked the idea of the cell-based profiles, in particular for things like enabling wifi for when I'm at home, but disabling it when I'm at work. Unfortunately, my house and office are both on the same cell.

[New Release 10-14-2007: Orange Call History icons] Marshall DialPad Skin 0.19

UPDATE: October, 14th 2007 - Call History icons available for the Orange DialPad Skin
UPDATE: September, 21st 2007 - A new DialPad skin is available: Touch
Hi guys!
First post form me in this forum! I have to say that it'is much time I've been reading this forum who is a mile stone for Pocket PC's world.
However, I would like to share with you my work on Windows Mobile phone skins.
I made a set of DialPad skins based on a modded Mitac eDealer. The good thing is that the Smart Dialer feature works perfectly also in WM5 AKU 3.5 and is very easy to use onehanded.
But, let's pictures talk for me...

I modified the Mitac original dialer (eDialer) changing the buttons size and position.
After that I started creating the images (background, buttons etc...). That images are referenced in HKLM\Security\Phone\Skin.
It's a very good idea to create an application to easly design new skins. Let me know.

You are right. I think that the link changes for every session.
Since ShareBig doesn't satisfy my needs for a mirror, I'm trying to move all my skins to another one (still searching one) which is more simple and that don't delete the files if they are not downloaded for long time.

Hi Folks,
I was searching (both here and the net) for an iphone skin that would work with the WM6 calendar. The closets one I could find (as far a just skinning goes) is OtO which is a great apps, but currently does not allow users to send meeting request using MS exchange.
Im not a developer so I have no idea if this is possible so hence this post, is this already been done? If not, would it be possible to do and if so, would anyone be up to the challenge?

Yes me too i am also very interested in thisone. Let's hope the guys from the new PointUI can arrange something. If you see what they already have done, I'm sure they must be able to do something for this in the future. Let's hope & pray!

"The closets one I could find (as far a just skinning goes) is OtO which is a great apps, but currently does not allow users to send meeting request using MS exchange."
I was looking for (if it exists) a skin (or separate apps) which mimicks the iphone calendar for WM6. It would be cool if the current OtO could be customized to select skin types (just like Tene's contact apps with Torx iphone skin). I would still need the ability to add attendees within my contacts or from my company exchange using activesync - but the skin would be a great start.
anyone has a cab file for it
Hi,
I am also very interested in an Iphone calendar lookalike for WM6.
I am fed up trying to use my ppc calendar without the styletus and with my big fingers...
The iphone calendar seems very user friendly.
I tried OTO but it is just made to insert a appointment (private, public not available), not to view the calendar etc...
Anyone is working on it ?
Thks,
Pebrok
Anybody have a .cab for OTO v5.0b...
On the web page http://www.onetouchinnovation.com/get-oto
Binary version of Oto
For at least a year I was searching around for some user-friendly and thumb-friendly calendar app, I got so frustrated and gave up. I was used to my old Nokia 6610i calendar before I had a PPC phone.
Finally, I found Agenda One which is brilliant!
Definitely give it a try. IMO it's actually better than the iPhone app. After watching that youtube video I couldn't believe how un-amazingly-intuitive it was to enter an appointment. Agenda One's much quicker.
Edit: oh, I should add, Agenda One is fully compatible with your PIM data - contacts, calendar appointments, tasks. It does the same job as the default WM ones. I sync the phone with outlook and it's great. I'm going to get an exchange service too and I'm sure it'll work with that.

Agree
Would love to see someone developing something like iPhone calendar (imho, people are turning their HTCs into iPhones with all these mods and themes. Why not a cool calendar? )
I hate the HTC calendar :s for real!

Do you mean the stock WM calendar?
Either way i agree, a new calendar for finger abiity is a defo need in my opinion! Just wish i could dev one lol!
MM
yeah. WM, sorry
but it really sucks! Only now I'm starting to understand it
Well, I'm just trying to help out but if you want to give it a try, Agenda One recently updated to enlarge the text size of editing/adding appointments, tasks etc.
They also added a few other things to make all editing finger-friendly (like input of numbers, there's a nice large dialpad now).
I found it ok anyway, I guess I've trained my fingers to do it (because I will NOT use the stylus for anything but resetting my hermes when it's crashed and poking people I don't like...)
However, it does look a little ugly with with the bigger edit text so you're right, something that is big enough for all thumbs which ALSO looks nice is needed.

[PRJ][01.01.2009] iDiamond Project v.0.2b [PUBLIC BETA IS OVER]

Hello boys and girls!
Here's my little Chrismas present for you: iDiamond Project public beta
As for now, it's nothing but a fancy application laucher, but it will be developed into complex UI over time. I'm too lazy to write more, so look for yourself.
And yeah, a feedback (or even an usability review) will be appreciated.
Special thanks to:
mun_rus: for your help in manila R&D (reverse-engineering and development)
bepe: for your useful hashing utilities
nestore5: for your help with decompilation
chainfire & guys: for QTC converter
Thank you all guys! You all helped greatly to make it happen!
System requirements:
TouchFLO 3D enabled VGA device
The official beta testing period of v.0.2 is over, coz all valuable information is collected and we got into flood&flame stage.
You're supposed to stop using the beta and wait for next releases (in Feb-Mar). The beta will forcefully expire after Jan, 15th.
If you haven't got a chance to try, here's the video:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-VWsOUt41X4
Attention!
If you're going to distribute this to other forums, please do not remove credits.txt from the package, so users can always check back for newer versions in this thread.
Interface modders, if you're going to change some graphics, please leave loading screen logo untouched. This is my personal request
Regarding HTC Touch HD version:
I can not develop HD apps without actual device, and i don't think i will get any, coz it's not even sold here. But as soon a i get one (by some miraculous means), you can count on HD releases along with Diamond releases. You heard me
Donations:
I don't need money for this project, coz i write it for my own pleasure, and Paypal is not available in my region anyway. I wrote it just above, but i will state it more clearly: what i really need are Touch HD (for HD version) and iPhone itself (to look how things are done there), so, if you want, you can look in the direction of fundraising via someone trustworthy in the community, but that's just an idea...
Enjoy!
Known issues:
- Manila hangs or restarts sometimes during adding a shortcut
- Clock icon does nothing - it's just showing time (for now)
Impossible features (do not request them please):
- Locking the entire interface
- Integrating TF3D tabs into iDiamond UI
- Integrating iDiamond UI into TF3D
- QVGA version
Upcoming features:
- Setting wallpaper
- Built-in applications: picture viewer, music player (with coverFLO), messaging, etc.
- Active icons for applications: showing number of missed calls, new messages, etc.
Tips & tricks:
- Adding shortcuts to special places/actions, like Settings and New SMS (workaround): I haven't tried that personally, but i'm sure it's possible to create a special .lnk (with special parameters) for such actions (just goggle it) and add em like regular application.
"New SMS" shortcut attached. Just put it into your Programs folder
SMS Inbox: 00#"\Windows\tmail.exe" -service "SMS"
More shortcuts here: http://www.handy-faq.de/forum/windo...51874-windows_mobile_shortcuts_erstellen.html

Edit: So wait. This means my TF3D won't run Awe. I was hoping to secondtoday this....any way I can get two versions of TF3D running at the same time? I would like to keep TF3D and have this run on my fuze. Suggestions D-Man?
Good job, man. Can't wait to try...
1 min review:
Seems very usable. I like the look. I'm a compare it to the iFonz, like that it's not an app, but I still feel that if you can seperate the bottom four icons and put the page dots above it and have the same docking look as the iPhone. You're good to go Oh and I hate the fact that I can't have TF3D and have this running on Second Today I can only have one. No bugs so far. It seems pretty fast.

Um. Respect people please. This is a proper forum. Not for retards. K? Thanks. And if you were smart enough to know that TF3D (VGA Version) can run on QVGA devices and since this just replaces manila files, it should run on QVGA devices.
wow, saw the youtube vid, really fast! will try this when i get back home.
meccax5, why don't u "-mod removed moronic remarc by meccax5-"? heheheh
sorry for another flame...
Gonna test this out on my FUZE get back to ya ASAP!
thx

I understand the UI, but wondering if it was possible to make it so that TF3D still is the main hompage, and this becomes a replacement for the programs portion of WM6. I understand that it is iPhone like, but I like the TF3D, but would love to replace the programs folder with this instead of the WM6 version. Or even replacing the TF3D programs tab with this. Using it as a today screen cuts out alot of essential info. Just asking and giving feedback.

I basically said the same thing I think it would be possible, but D-Man would have to re-code it and change it, because I think it'd be hard to keep both of them. If you're want it like this only for the programs, I suggest you look into TouchXperience by schaps which should have a public beta by christmas >.> (I've been waiting ever so patiently for him to come out with it since it looks too good to be true and it's uber awesome and I could like talk about it all day since it's so awesome, but I won't because it's going to clog my whole post with TouchXperience)

To me (personal opinion) this is more of a app launcher (a nice one at that), and as far as TouchExperiance, I gave up on it and I think it has been abandoned.
tried it and like it!
it somehow slows down menu popup when im in app launcher thou, not at home screen
one more thing is sometimes it will restart itself when u add a shortcut, and u have to add a different shortcut instead of the one causing prob, then only able to add the one afterward
