[APP][Update 8/31/08] Stocker - a finger freindly stock tracker

For your using pleasure.... Stocker, a finger friendly stock tracker.
Currently, you will be able to enter stocks and view the delayed trading price. Soon I will add stock history. This has been tested on my Diamond (vga), and works on the qvga emulator. Should be easy to use... Just press the right menu button. I will monitor this thread to answer questions.
And, btw... it is unsigned and required compact framework 3.5.
Update 8/31/08 to version 0.3.19.0909
- added scroll area indicator
- added stock change by percentage
- corrected qvga layout a bit
- added extended view including stock graph, volume, high, low, etc...

nice..thanks...been looking for a finger friendly stock ticker

Your welcome.

looks good... but I wish it was a Today Plugin like the Pocket StockCenter that I'm currently using.

Im using a diamond, so I dont use plugins on tf3d, but I'll add it to the list of stuff to do. Im working on an extended view (stock histroy, more info on the stock) when a stock is double-clicked, then next will be alerts. the possibilities are endless The extend view should be ready within a few days.

cool...I hope to have a Diamond someday!
The StockCenter mortscript is memory lite and very comprehensive...take a look: http://discussion.treocentral.com/showthread.php?t=141737

Well, I have the downloading of stock data working... Im getting a graph to work at the moment.

Great work, looks good! Will be trying out soon on my Touch.

I know that pocket stockcenter and a few others use a free today "banner" that they just send info to..this might make it easy for you to "add" a today plugin by just sending info to the banner. Nice job!

ill take a look at it. still working on extended stock info screen. mostly working, but needs polishing.

Updated. See 1st post.

looking forward in giving this a try thanks

nice been lookin for one of these

Only the US Exchanges?
G'Day,
Firstly, thank you for creating this app and secondly, thanks for sharing! Just wondering whether it includes support for stocks traded on exchanges other than the Dow or Nasdaq? Specifically wondering about the Australian (ASX) and Canadian (TSX) exchanges?
Cheers!

Hi,
Nice work man... keep updating the software with new options... thanks a lot...

tried it on the HTC Touch Pro that I bought from Vodafone yesterday and it says: THE PROGRAM REQUIRES NEWER VERSION OF .NET FRAMEWORK ....
I thought since I have a new phone everything should be up to date in there ?

Nice app !
Two small things :
1) change the ugly button !
2) a small bug on my Diamond, when I try to go back from the detailed view to the stocks list with the small arrow, I reach an error : NullReferenceException at KLOControls.SListBox.GetListItemFromEvent(Control sender)...

Thank you so much!! finally a finger friendly stock ticker app.
please keep us updated!

Just installed and tried it, and it seems to be working with toronto stocks by adding .TO to the symbol.
So for example CAE inc stocks, you could add CAE.TO for the TSX stock.

Downloading now ... Thanks for the effort!!

Lost Functionality after upgrade

Since getting my Touch Diamond a couple of months ago, I've added features and capabilities, hacked the registry and essentially fooled around with pretty much everything offered on this site. Yesterday, I decided to clean up my phone and start again. I implemented Dutty's V.26 release (great piece of work), SecondToday (again, a great release) and S2U2, which I find invaluable.
My phone is pretty much as i want it to be - but I'm missing one function and cannot figure out how it was implemented in my old configuration. On my old setup, I was able to drag my finger, or the stylus, down the list of inbox emails and select them all. This "select" function is not working in my current configuration. I've spent several hours re-reading this forum, but cannot find any relevent information. Does anyone know how to activate this feature?

i think that function is built into some roms and not others.
i dont think it is a seperate program.
might be wrong though.

Thank you...that was my fear...back to the formal HTC rom, I guess.

if your in message list if you tap on menu/select messages a smaller list pops up where you have 3 options ALL, ALL BELLOW or SEVERAL hopes this helps mate save you having to reflash

So...anything new in .16 ?
Is it worth installing...
The final should be ready pretty soon.

Works on QVGA. With the .14 version, I had trouble getting the app to run after running it once. (A soft reset was needed.) It runs perfectly for me now.

Same here but on WVGA (Touch HD). The only thing i don't know if it's ok or not is that the info that i see in my "home - news feed" or "wall profile" on my mobile phone it's only some of the entry's i can see on www.facebook.com home-news feed ...or even different ones....when using m.facebook.com it's like a "middle" situation as i can see more entry's than on my phone but not all that appears on the full site....it's kind of an inconsistent experience but i think that's another topic...
And in my case messages still don't work in this version.
Autosave user and password still don't work.

.16
.16 on WM6.1 over Samsung Omnia Hardware:
autosave pass works, but all drop down menus don't display. I can't also EXIT the program (probably cos EXIT is inside the MENU dropdown) and have to terminate the process to end it.

Seems to work perfect on CDMA QVGA HTC touch runing stock WM 6.0.. no issues I can see yet.. vary fast and nice interface.. but ill end up still just using tha browser mostly

so it's not worth updating yet?? my only question is: if now leaked only v 0.16, how far is the final / offical one?? should have been released in april..but we all know how MS and developers sometimes do I'm a bit disappointed, from 0.16 to 1.0 it's a long long way to go.. and the first release look promising but still far from complete or perfect.. how long are we supposed to wait???? °_°

New italian version is READY!
Facebook 0.16 all resolution working​

x2!!!
Stupid status update comments still no available/working!!!

not working
I have installed the 0.16 ita but the application is closed after 4", has omnia wm 6.1.
I premise that I had installed the version Facebook_WM6.5_Ita of salvy.c.83 is worked perfectly.

apps seems to work on my sprint moto q9c, but the fonts are messed up. seems to be displaying wing dings or something similar. any ideas?

nrice, you need to reboot your phone.
and the program works and installs fine on my Motorola Q9C ... but it still seems to "cache" or "load" forever on the homescreen... I guess I just need to let it do its thing?
I really want this program to work.

thanks Adam. can read the fonts fine now; but you're right it does seem slow--hoping that it's caching or something.

Yeah it seems to load for a long time on the the Inbox screen as well. It's got the little spinning windows logo and it's just cranking along. I'm not even sure if it's doing anything, my status indicator says that EVDO is being used, so I can only assume it's slowly caching.

I am liking this update and from my experience of using it, I think that a few things have improved greatly.
When I used 0.14 it was slow on loading the tabs (home, profile, friends etc), it did not download any messages at all when I clicked the mail tab, it just kept on showing the loading icon, I left it for about half an hour once and it never loaded any messages. When I clicked the phonebook tab it loaded up the list of my friends with phone numbers but when I scrolled down the list it would judder or go back to the top of the list.
In 0.16 the tabs load up much quicker, they seem more responsive and smooth, it has downloaded just a small fraction of my mail, it has grabbed 25 messages but I have over 1000 in my inbox! But then again there could be a limit onto how many it downloads? I'm not sure. Nevertheless this is an improvement, the phonebook tab also now works and scrolls fine. The things that are still bad and need work is the time it takes to refresh things like news feed, status updates etc and the time it takes to load up photos and albums.
Overall I think it's a good improvement over the last version, as said above the only gripes I have with it are the loading times but I'm sure this will get ironed out in future versions. I don't think I will be using the app all the time just yet as I tend to use Facebook through Opera but I will be using it a bit more than 0.14 I think.
My phone is the Touch HD and thanks to the original poster for the upload!

@ nico1969
I don't know where is the problem, in my touch dual it works fine, I've only edit the lang file (mui) into the cab, probabily in your samsung, zibilce dll doesn't work, use my previous version, at this moment i've not noticed substantial differences

My first experience of winmo...

Hi Everyone,
Found this great site looking for forums for the HD2, seems every other leads to here in some way another.
Got my HD2 on Monday with Virgin, so in 5 days I've come to find it an amazing piece of kit yet ultimately annoyed.
I've already got a list of problems and annoyances:
Having to double tap and go into the email fully so it appears read
Tapping to reply to a text yet nothing happens
When using the 'phone' keypad it types in numbers
The phone screen basically crashing so when you press a button it doesn't show the unlock screen. Thus having to take the cover off then the back, then the battery
Pressing the x in the corner of an app yet going to task manager and its still open
The over sensitivity when typing a text and showing words that don't make sense in the predictive text
Having to f**k about for ages to get wi-fi off grrr!
Having to install 3.5 compact .net. I still don't know how to do it
I understand there is a cab for the text and app for the wi-fi but surely it shouldn't be like this. I'm not a technophobe or whatever you want to call one and like to think I'm pretty clued up on tech, (That's why I bought the phone) yet I haven't a clue what a ROM does nor how to install them. I can just cope with cabs ha.
It seems Windows/HTC slogan should be 'There's a cab for that'. (not good)
Anyway rant over and Hello! I'm sure I'll be doing more learning over the next few weeks!

Hi 27firesnake, hope you don't think I was being lazy. Thanks for the links though. I know I'll have to do some digging around, just thought I'd let people know of my story so far.

not to worry mate, this community is all about sharing and helping each other.

Hi there. I'll try to give you more "readable" info about the issues you mentioned. I'll just change the order of the questions...
Having to install 3.5 compact .net. I still don't know how to do it
You can use the official Microsoft link provided by 27firesnake, but you'll have to do some reading... The simplest way is to download a cab and install it directly on your phone. You'll fine one here (item #18). You should do this first, as many great applications (including BsB Tweak) need this system component in order to work!
I haven't a clue what a ROM does nor how to install them
Well a ROM is basically your operating system (Windows Mobile) + HTC Sense (homepage and tabs). You are currently an official RO (usually called "stock ROM" in this forum). What we need to know is what version you use? Most likely 1.43 or 1.48, which are not the latest from HTC. The most recent released ROM is 1.66 and runs smoother and might give you better experience overall, even though there no major updates (just a compilation of fixes). Anyway, some people manage to get "not yet released official ROMs" (usually called "leaked ROM") and are able to install them on their devices. The latest leaked ROM is 2.07 (that should appear on the T-Mobile HD2). Anyway, I would not recommend installing a leaked or cooked ROM for the moment, since you're still a newbie and just received your device...
Simpler answer: you should install the official ROM 1.66. Try to go on the official HTC website to do so. If your serial number is rejected, you should contact your carrier (Virgin) to know when you'll be able to download it. People here will advice you to install HSPL to be able to bypass this protection, but as I said, you should wait a bit more, when you know Windows Mobile more. To learn more about that subject, go to the link in my signature.
Having to double tap and go into the email fully so it appears read
Well this doesn't seem to be a problem, or I don't understand? The email appearing in the Mail tab are just "previews" of your email and you should tap to get in the "real" e-mail application to read them fully.
Tapping to reply to a text yet nothing happens
I don't understand. You're not able to answer to a text-SMS ?
When using the 'phone' keypad it types in numbers
Again, this doesn't appear like a problem. I mean, you should compose phone numbers when in the phone application. If you write the beginning of a number, you'll automatically see the contacts whose number begin that way. Anyway, if you prefer, you can use the People tab (then "All People") to choose a contact typing the first letter (instead of phone number).
The phone screen basically crashing so when you press a button it doesn't show the unlock screen.
Is it real crashes or just freeze? I mean, I you wait for a long time, like 1 to 5 minutes, the lockscreen doesn't come back? Many people, including myself, reported some freezes from time to time, but the new ROM 1.66 really improved thing on my side. You might look for this thread for more and this one too.
Pressing the x in the corner of an app yet going to task manager and its still open
OK, this is easy to solve. Just install the "Duttys HTC Task Manager". It will install a task manager and enable the closing of any application using the cross. You can find the cab here (tip #7).
The over sensitivity when typing a text
The latest ROM 1.66 decreases the sensitivity of the touchscreen. If you can't install it, the easy way to solve this is to install the (very recommended) tweaking application called "BsB tweak". There are a lot of simple tweaks you can ON/OFF. One of these is called "decrease sensitivity" or something like that. If it's still too sensitive, then you can install the fixes found here. Just to be sure you don't have a flawed unit, check if you touchscreen has the following problems (go see the youtube videos too).
showing words that don't make sense in the predictive text
I don't have answers for that one, but I know the predictive is not the best on this mobile. You have two options:
1 - improve your typing thanks to the less sensitive touchscreen (if you make less errors, the prediction will be more accurate )
2 - install an alternative keyboard like Touchpal or maybe Swipe...
Having to f**k about for ages to get wi-fi off grrr!
Well, there are numerous ways to solve this issue.
- you can install a shortcut on you home page for the (already installed) "Comm Manager". Comm Manager is already installed and was designed for you: it is a collection of ON/OFF switchers (wifi, bluetooth etc).
- you can install an application that simply switch wifi ON/OFF. Then you install a shortcut on your home page, so you simply tap it to enable or disable wifi. You can find an application like that here (along with a lot other more)
Hope this long post helps

Smaberg's WiFi toggle cab (sticky in the apps and themes section) is a godsend (as is the BT Toggle cab). I have the 20 shortcuts cab installed so that on the top row I have shortcuts to each of these on the homescreen, along with my two most used apps and main contact (girlfriend).
BSB tweaks is definitely recommended also.
When you type a name into the Phone dialler, it may show numbers, but it narrows your options by alpha, so providing you can spell the name you're after it works just fine. You'd have to have triple tap letter selection there otherwise, which is just far less efficient than whats on offer.

guy .. i have experience something in my device .. i was wondering why my device keep pop out the error msg like service.exe and the device.exe ..
it is quite annoying because everytime pop out those error msg .. i have to open the back cover and soft reset it .. it is very serious .. happened everyday for 3 to 5 times ..

Tapping to reply to a text yet nothing happens
Yeh, you have to wait (if lots of messages) for it to load above. You can see this by the scroll bar on the right becomming shorter.
Once it has finished loading those messages, you can tap and it will start composing.
But if you tap before those messages have loaded; it does nothing.

JAVA & F1-applet?

Currently I'm running the Cell Pro V11 and although I don't think this ROM-version can be the problem, I thought it was worthy mentioning.
I'm trying to get the official F1-applet going that mobile users can download from http://mobile.formula1.com but for some reason it comes up with an OutofMemory-error even when my TP2 has "only" 48% used after a soft reset.
I was wondering if anyone has experienced this as well or that maybe a JAVA-update is in order or that there is some volatile memory that needs excluding in the registry for this app to work.
Really appreciate some answers/pointers from fellow F1-fans.

Same problem for me as well. Haven't figured out what is wrong. Really wish it wasn't a Java applet.

I will look into that. Downloading and testing.

Much appreciated Sergio; I know you're quite the busy bee...

In the FAQ section for the TP2 you will find a link to install JavaFX.
The repeat the procedure and you will not get out of memory anymore

Thanks for that; will try later tonight or tomorrow and report back...
/edit: it works... Bit slow though but I will try it out next F1 to see how accurate it is.
Thanks for the JavaFX hint.

Installed fine but unable to login message keeps coming up with unable to find server.
Any hints mates?
stock Sprint TP2 6.5 Sense 2.5.

Woke up this AM in the USA, & lo & behold the app worked for Round 3 of the WCC - Malaysia.
Nice stuff.
Must've been server issues not allowing some of us to connect the last couple of days.
Best advice I can say for Touch Pro2 owners is download the JavaFX & install that before downloading latest F1 App.
Should be able to get the HTC soft keyboard up & running too & u can choose not to use the app's own proprietary soft keyboard.
