Bluetooth icon - Touch 3G General

I did a hard reset yesterday and now i can't see the bluetooth notification icon in the menubar, so now i can't see if my bluetooth is on or off. Does anyone have a solution for this?

You sbould be able to go into start-->settings-->connections-->comm manager and take a look. It'll show you if bluetooth is on or off.

Yes I now. But before the reset i had the icon in the titlebar. In that way i could easily see in my homescreen if my bluetooth was on or off. It was also very handy because i used to set btIO-mini (which is a bluetooth toggle) to a hardware key for easy and quick switching.

problem solved. I removed my dialer skin (mrincredible 3d) and the icon came back.

Just for your information: I tried another skin (Poorlyducks) for my dialer and had the same problem. The bluetooth notificationicon would'n apear. I removed the dialerskin and it came back. Will try some other skins in the near future but it seems that skins installed on my Jade make the bluetoothicon disapear, so be aware if you try some skins!
If you manage to find a nice skin (just for the dialer!) which doesn't make the bticon disapear let me know please.

There's plenty of dialers on here that you can isntall. Just do a search and you'll find them. Not sure about the disappearing icons though....never encountered that kinda problem. I'm using the SPB black47 dialer skin on my Touch. Looks great.

SPB Pocket + and Wisbar Advance 2.0

Hi,
A couple of things...
1) Does anyone know of any conflicts between SPB Pocket+ and WA2? I just downloaded P+ and thinks it's fantastic, the only problem is hat my top and bottom taskbars are now back to the original 'blocky' style. Can these two programs run together?
2) I have seen screen shots of peoples today screen where they have a bluetooth icon. Where can I get this icon from? I want to be able to turn my bluetooth on and off at the touch of a button rather than having to go through comms manager (idle I know, but there you go). I have scoured my XDA looking for the icon and think I can safely say... it's not there!
Thanks all
Matt
Anyone???
Shouldn't be a problem running both PP and WA2. Just remember to turn off PP's close functionality.
As for the BT functionality, I haven't tried it but this might be what you are looking for:

Bluetooth Toggle As Today Plugin

Is there any application that makes putting bluetooth toggle as today plugin possible in WM5 ????
Please Help !!!
Maybe Like This One -->
Thanks in advance
download and install batterystatus. Very easy to find as it is all over this forum. Go to the options and select the Tray Launch Tab. You will be able to add bluetooth,wi-fi,phone, as well as many other options to the tray at the bottom of your screen.
this should work
found this somewhere, i have it installed and it works good.doesnt take up much space either.
As an alternative, Vijay codes up a bunch of really handle utilities, and one (VJvolubilis http://www.vijay555.com/?Releases:VJVolubilis) can toggle BT. Then all you need is a today screen shortcut to his prog with the right suffix. cLaunch should do it if you want it on the today screen instead of the tray, or even create a drop-down menu controlled by a hard key with something like WM5NewMenu. All these are free, but I'm sure the developers would love a donation!
Theres a registry hack on ppcgeeks that enables that and wifi on your today screen if I find it i'll post it
BT on today-you find it???

I have been searching for this for a while now. I have started using phone weaver and turned everything else off but BT. See cab and thumbnail. In thumbnail look in bottom right corner of today screen for activated BT! I would like this to happen without running Phone weaver, seems to take up a little more memory than I would like for this type of app, but it works great and I am happy with it. Just what I wanted, if I could actually get rid of the few little icons to the left of the BT I would be VERY happy thats my main gripe here...
Cheers!
Efcomm.cab is what you need

ciclebt.cab.... and assigne to hardware button. or use as app via applauncher programs.
You can use btIO-mini (see attached file). In this zip there are 2 files.
I made this for 2 reasons. The first is to have a quick toggle via HTC Home integration, and the second ist to be able to turn on/off BT via voice command.
1. bluetooth.lnk -> put this in your \windows\startmenu\program files\ folder
2. btIO-mini.exe put this in \program files\btIO\
3. Make a shortcut from your favorite launcher today-plugin to btIO-mini.exe
Make a softreset, after that you can use voice command to turn on/off bluetooth.
There is no visible indication, like pop-up or message box that tells you which state BT is. The program just looks in which state BT is and if it's off it turns BT on in connectable (invisible) mode, and if it's on it simly turns BT off and exits.
So this is not exactly what you asked since it is not a today plugin but maybe it will help you.
Cheers
EDIT: Be warned! The program icon is ****ing ugly. Will have to find a better one...
Thank you guys for your response ....
But I'm asking about the plugin in the attached picture ...
thank u again ..

HTC Dialer in Landscape Mode

Hi,
I want to use my HD in the car in landscape mode. I have deactivated TF3D and I'm using Gyrator2 for turning the display - everything fine so far...
The problem is, that the HTC Dialer doesn't work properly in Landscape mode. My only solution so far is to switch off the HTC dialer and use the standard WM6 dialer with a registry tweak:
HKLM\Security\Phone\Skin DWORD Enabled --> 0
But that also switches off the bluetooth status icon in the status bar on top, and it is not really satisfying.
anybody here who has a better solution for the problem, or has a working htc dialer in landscape?
regards jan
other way 'round:
does anybody know how to solely (re-) ACTIVATE the bluetooth status icon in the top status bar after it is dactivated by the reg-entry above (not how to change back the reg-entry, just to get back the bt-status-icon with the htc dialer still deactivated)...
...or does anybody at least have a solution / program to see the actual bt-status on the home screen?
regards jan

Programs such as phonealarm (pocketmax.net) can give you the option to see the status of your bluetooth, wifi etc. The main benifit is that you only have to press the icon to enable/disable bluetooth etc. The program is skinable and offers many other features.
I've just applied the reg edit that you have made, but for another reason. The HD also suffers from the 2 - 3 second delay before it rings. Changing back to the windows dialer appears to solve this issue (also giving faster boot time and more available memory).
another problem with this regedit trick is that it desactivate the volume ajustement when speaking... So it's realy anowing... Anyway to solve this problem???

I use landscape view on my diamond too, I just wonder does the HTC DIALER for TOUCH PRO or PRO2 's dialer works properly in landscape mode?
If yes, how come no one port it to HD or Diamond?
Some diamond's cooked ROM 's a landscape dialer , but it just does not pop up while there's a incoming call .......

Bluetooth indication

Is it possible to make a small tool that shows a small indication at the taskbar if the Bluetooth is on or of?
I use the windows dialler pad because the ring delay is lower than the HTC dialler.
But than you will have no Bluetooth indication.
It would perfect if the indication is very small. I don’t need a icon because this will waste the small place of the task bar.
Just a blue dot like the white dot that appears when Gsen is active.
Have a nice day
Thomas
Sorry for my English. I tried my best
I'm very much in favour of it. Have the same problem!
Me too please.... I have requested this before, but no luck yet.... I now use a programme called "bluepower" which turns on the bluetooth whenever my diamond is being charged. So when I am in my car and my phone is in the cradle, I know bluetooth is on. I don't need an indicator in the taskbar as I KNOW it is active. Therefore I can stick to the windows dialer for the same reasons as you.
I found this after a very quick google. Tested and working fine on my Diamond.

same thing here. seems like it started with me after I used my s9 bluetooth headset. when I used my wired set, I don't think this happened.
I have the same issue, but it doesn't have any consequences for me.
Another issue I do have with S2U2 is when I make a call via a bluetooth headset, the keypad disables and it happens often that keys are pressed while the phone is in my pocket after I made a call. Haven't found a setting that disables this either.
i tried to install it but i get the error that it is not signed and therefor not running.
i looked up everything here but there is so much on S2U2 that i dont know what to install in wath order.
-go here and download the wvga version and the language pack.
-extract the s2u2 cab file in your memory card and the correct language file.
-install the cab in your tp2 (not in the memory card), rename the language file (i.e. lang.english.ini->lang.ini) and copy it into \programs\s2u2 folded (when asked click on replace existing file).
-reboot.
when windows starts a popup appears and s2u2 starts for the first time. so you can now set it up in s2u2 setting (wallpaer, ecc...)
thx dude for the lightning fast response
you're welcome...solved?
yep, just ninstalled it and works fine.
one more issue...
S2U2 is not picking the weather from HTC's weather panel... wht do u think is wrong?
thx....
mine shows weather correctly...have u selected touchflo3d in s2u2 settings?
...have you downloaded the weather for the location and have you setting up the gmt time for the same locatioon in home tab?
to show weather correctly weather tabs must shows the same location as gmt time.
sorry for my English...
the seven options for weather that s2u2 1.62 gives me are
Off | SPB Weather 1.x | Weather Panel | Pocket Weather | HTC Home Weather | UserWeather | Manila 2D Weather | Manila 3D Weather
I selected both Weather panel and HTC Home Weather, none seem to work.
Yes, tocuflo3d's weather panel has downloaded the latest weather updates...
my home location and time are correct too...
thx....
EDIT: I tried Manilla 3D and its working! .... hmm.... is tht its name?....
yeah!
Hey I just installed S2U2 cause I needed a good locking program but for some weird reason and multiple installations, uninstall and soft-resets, I'm still not able to get the slide to unlock work.
I mean i get the screen with the time and all just the slider isn't there.
i have tried many skins but still no go.
Is there a solution I don't know?
thanks for your help.

In the S2U2-Settings, set the following values (beside the others you want, of course):
Hide all softkeys: OFF (This is the value that hides the slider)
Display mode: GDI (Otherwise the screen would be scrambled sometimes when you change the orientation)

It won't go completely away by this but it's much better than with the other display driver modes.
If you find a definitive solution for this problem, please let me know
