I am using Mortscript quite often and it gets triggered by PhoneAlarm profiles at a specific time. I'm trying to find a way to get my weather in HTC Sense to update via a program or a command line. Is it possible?
Currently I do it via Mortscript's mouse clicks but it requires me to be on the weather panel screen in order for the update to complete. If it moves to the main screen before update is done, the update terminates.
I have a SendReceiveAll program that works great. I just need something like that for the weather app.
Tips anyone? TIA.
Hi
Search at pocketpc[dot]ch for "zeitgesteuertes-wetterupdate".
There is a complete MortScript solution.
But I'm still searching for the command-file.

Hi,
Is it possible to create a shortcut to the today screen?
And while I'm at it, is there a way to create a shortcut to the (active sync) BT connection that connect my device to my desktop?
TIA,
Cheers
Cacti
there is already a shortcut to the today screen-
start--> today!
PHM Key tools will do this, I imagine the built in button settings will do this, and I've got an app called TodayButton that might help:

Thanks vijay,
It's no shortcut but does exactly what I want
Any chance your will ever make a VJBlueSync version that is WM5 compatible?
Cheers
Cacti
Why do you need to install an application?
Pressing the red phone key will take you to the Today screen from anywhere.
le_cactus: TodayButton isn't even VJTodayButton - one of my earliest apps, but I like it... if you really need a shortcut to Today screen, do check out PHM Tools etc. TodayButton will be updated one day.
VJBlueSync - I released it as is just because I'd done the work, but am certainly not satisfied with it. I'm going to have to directly interact with the Bluetooth ActiveSync menu extension, which will take time I don't have right now, but hopefully, yes, I'll fix it and then try to make it compatible..

Excelent!
Where would we be without you
As for today, I want the Button 5 to switch to the today screen. On that screen there is a link to the Comm Manager so I got everything I wanted. Maybe PHM Tools can do what I want too, but this is working as it should.
@talkingbollox: I just extracted the TodayButton.exe with CabManager and copied it to my device. No need to install it if you don't want to.
Cheers,
Cacti
LOL
Just found the ButtonManager has a link to the today screen....
Why am I always looking for a difficult way to do things when there is an easy way?!?!?!
Anyways, cheerz,
Cacti
Attached is a cab installer for HTC Plus!
This application adds a nice clock and messages interface to the today menu, as well as adding an application launcher with included high quality icons for the applications.
As found, this application was non-functional. HTCImgCodec.dll has been added (exists in some ROMs already) and registry settings have been changed to disable the Backlight Adjust function. For some reason when this function is enabled the device hangs during boot and a hard reset is required to fix. You have been warned. DO NOT ENABLE BACKLIGHT ADJUST.
Screenshots below. More stuff to come.
UPDATE: I've replaced the file with an updated version. This update changes the installation defaults in a manner that should help anyone who experienced a problem installing the previous version. No changes are made in the plug-in, so if you already have it working don't bother updating.
another new one to try thanks bro awe3some!!
It looks interesting!! Thanks for the new stuff and more important, for the warning!
Very cool today plugin! Too bad it doesn't have weather... So, Ill stick to the HTC Home plug.
OK
Nice and pretty, thanks my friend.
not working x500 wm6 =(
now we need it customized like all the other HTC plugins.
Customisation
This plugin is easily customisable. The layout is stored entirely as bmp images under \Windows\HTCPlus. And all the programs chosen can be modified under HKCU\Software\HTC\HTCPlus\Shortcuts.

good
Very cool today plugin!
looks nice! can i still use htc customizer to customize it?
Nice today plugin.
However, it is still lag far behind O2 Plus, which has sould profile, call forwarding, task manager and more...
very nice man
Thanks
Nice! Although I still prefer HTC Home.
Looks great, but couldnt get it to work on my Touch. The today plugin does not appear on the screen, nor in the list with available plugins. The Options tab is present though :\
great thankz
thsnkz,
jdac21
Thanks a lot
I'm going to try it
Unfortunately not working
possible fix
I also originally had the problem where the plugin was not appearing in the list of plugins or on the today screen, but the HTC Plus tab was still displayed in settings. I was able to fix this problem by copying HTCImgCodec.dll into \Windows. I added it to the cab. Perhaps this file is not being copied? Check for its existence and try manually extracting it to \Windows if it doesnt show up.

I installed it on my Artemis with official HTC Asia WM6 rom and for me it works until you switch off the device. Than you can never switch it on again, only by soft reset with stylus!
So I uninstalled the prog quickly...
Otherwise it would be nice to have it on Today screen, so if someone could construct a bug-free cab from the extracted files I would really welcome it!
cheers
Will download an try when I get home!
has anyone been able to customize this plugin?
1. add voicemail to indicators
2. map text message indicator to palm threaded messaging app
i love the simplicity of this plugin, hopefully someone will develop this or perhaps point me in the direction on how to customize this plugin.
Hey everybody!
This is a question bothering me, and I havn't found anything on the web yet - blame on me if the answer can be found anywhere..
I'm using SKSchema to
-switch on WiFi/WLAN in the morning,
-get my emails
-and switch WiFi/WLAN off again 3 minutes later
automatically (at 06:40, 06:41 and 06:44 )
On my way to work in the train I can read the mails.
Now I'd like to update the Weather from the weather Tab automatically at, let's say, 06:42 am (you guess what I want..).
It's no problem starting any programm with any parameters with SKSchema but I just can't find which I have to start to update.
Any idea would be appreciated.
Thx
JackWiDu
PS. On my search I found a file "SIPGT_app.exe" in the windows folder which sounds like SIP-Gate but nothing happens on starting. Do you know what it's for? Is there any build-in SIP-Client??
SkSchema can also simulate screen taps, so can't you setup a script to open up today and the 'tap' on the weather tab and then tap update?
I use a similar method to update my RSS feeds every morning (Spb Insight - I open the app, 'tap' the right softkey and then 'tap' update all)
nice idea
is it possible to open up weather on touchflow ( havent seen how this can be done ) it conects to the internet download weather info and then make it disconnect from the internet
how can this be done?
No matter what I setting I use under what type of calendar view to show me when the calendar is first opened, it always shows the agenda view.
The weird thing is that at first it does open to whatever the setting is (for example week or month), and then in a split second it switches to agenda view. I have to manually tap until the desire view appears.
The setting still remains on "week" but the program still shows the agenda.
I also have this issue.
My device is the HTC Touch HD (by O2 Germany).
But if you start the calendar from the start menu, it will display correctly the selected view.
Any ideas how to fix this?
Same issue here - most annoying!
guys
Are you taping on an event on the home screen (TFlo3d) ? (as in how are you starting it )

yes, there is an upcoming event. Nevertheless, it shouldn't open the agenda view by default.
Hmm, after starting this thread, now I am wondering if that is just the way it works. I hadn't realized that opening the calendar from the Start menu does open it in the correct/desired view.
Do you guys remember if from the home screen it always opened to the agenda? Or did it used to open to the desired view?
I'm doubtful now - can't remember if maybe it always worked this way.
Hi,
I think it's supposed to work this way. When you open it from the Today Screen it always uses this view, hence the name: Today Screen

Rolf
Well there is a solution for Pocket informant
check out wiki
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Blackstone_Useful_Software
SSMaPa:
Now I am sure that the default Calandera has options as well but not sure what they are not werr to find them.
Calendar
Definitely:
When opening from Today, it always opens Agenda view.
When opening from Start -> Programs -> Calendar opens as ordered in Tools -> Options.
Doesn't like it, let's hope for a Registry hack.
Rgds,
This annoyed me too... It does indeed seem to be an issue with Touch Flo 3d, and the calendar link on the Today screen being set to always start the calendar in day view.
So, supposed this is a Touch Flo issue rather than a Windows Mobile issue, I made a little google search and came up with the following from htcwiki.com:
http://www.htcwiki.com/page/Start+Calendar+in+Month+View
I haven't tried it myself yet (past my bedtime as it is ), but will probably do so tomorrow. It seems like a simple enough operation. The instructions are for setting the calendar to month view as default, but I guess changing the parameter from "vm" to "vw" would set it to week mode. That seems logical, right?
Use the search funtionality.
You need the file ssmapa.exe
With that you can modify the manile.exe entry which is overruling the wm setting.
search and you will find.
or when you need someone else to do it for you.... link

I tried the ssmapa. It did not link correctly so I did a full restore. However, in my home page, the calendar now only shows a link "Calendar" but does not show the calendar items. It used to show my two or three of my schedules in the original touch flow 3D. I even did a hard reset but it did not help. Can someone advise how i can get it back?
Thanks, appreciate any help.
Use MortScript for starting Pocket Informant in Calendar View:
runwait ("\Program files\WebIs\PocketInformant\PITab.exe", "5")
sleep (2000)
runwait ("\Program files\WebIs\PocketInformant\PITab.exe", "5")
(Perhaps you have to modify the path....)

Does anyone know how to do this? I have an app idea that im trying to make work that I posted about a few days ago and no one seemed to respond. Im tackling the problem with mortscript and am almost there. I just need to figure out how how to change the spbmobileshell's active window name since it is blank and doesnt have one. It makes my script work for every program....
Is it possible to change this?
If not... Does anyone know how to make a script run that will execute only when mobile shell is active in portrait. waiting for a key board slide and will launch secondtoday... and minimize second today anytime if it is closed to portrait from a landscape position. this may seem a bit tedious, but the idea here is to make a simple script that will allow keyboard slides to open and close apps quick and easily without taking up too many resources
thanks for the help....
