Is there any neat simple software that will cheack how many minutes outgoing calls I have made and how many sms I have sent from a specific date ie my billing date ?
I would like to make sure I dont go over my monthly allowance and would just like a simple click on my today screen that would maybe read x mins and x texts.
Anyone know of anything like that ?

Does CalltimeApp work on a WindowsMobile 5.0-powered device (I have the MDA Vario)?
Hi everyone
I am looking for any software which count my out going sms
can anyone help me?
Thanks in advance
i thought normally there would be a count of SMSes at the bottom of the sent folder.
Smaato Cost can do this. But I don't like their strange UI which makes their app somewhat sluggish.... but the features are nice. And you can define different targets with different SMS costs ...
pocketAlarm also can count SMS, but there you can't track if it counted correctly also there is no way to define different costs for different target numbers. And I don't like their today plugin as it resized very often for me... and the whole app is too all-in-one for my taste.
As far as I read here, DKToday should also do the job, but showed some problems on Windows Mobile 2005 ... battery drain afair.
Cheers,

Thank you Mbirt

thank you very much

1. There are the networks for Germany hardcoded. No others possible (from looking at the XML file.)
2. No English translation.
3. Looks like you can't define different SMS-costs per target network.

Actually I dont need cost function,I only need sms counter nothing else,a software which counts my all out going sms
MBirth
I am using DKToday and its doing well,can you tell me how to reset sms counter?
Oh sorry yes the sw is only in German, and for German providers,
but i think this is not a problem,if you want to use the sms counter.
I use this sw only as sms counter,
and it works fine, i dont use the cost function.
I had found this one, but i haven´t tested it:

I'm having a problem emails in Chinese on my HTC HD. I have 智能输入 installed with the fonts that lets me enter text in Chinese or surf websites.
But when I get emails in Chinese, the subject line comes up fine, but the message itself displays in ASCII, even if I view in UTF-8, and I don't have the option to view in other Chinese encodings.
Is there a component I can install to fix this?
Hi,
I also have an English HTC HD, when I bought it they installed for me:
雅黑字体_14mb , 马兰花全屏手写, and 梅花输入法
and I can see and write Chinese.
I'm also looking for an other pinyin input method, the one I have now is not very convenient for me because when I input in pinyin "hao" the soft propose me characters for "hao, gao, gan" mixed and it is more difficult for me to find the right one...(i'm a french guy and my Chinese is still not very good...)
my solution is with CE-Star installed, and replace the font with the one you liked say msyh, and change the FontLink registry (google it)
and install the SIP you're used to..
that would pretty much done everything
EDIT: you can even change the system language to chinese, meaning displaying almost everything in chinese like you're using a CHS/CHT rom
To any and all of the three of you. I am English but visit Chinaa lot and like to be able to show Chinese characters / SMS messages etc. to taxi drivers etc.
At present, I cannot even show Chinese chacters on my screen (they always come up as ASCII).
Can you explian what:
雅黑字体_14mb , 马兰花全屏手写, and 梅花输入法
is in English and I will try and track it down.
I don't want to replace my SIP or my default language at all - just have Chinese charcetrs display ont he screen.

u got the cab for 马兰花全屏手写 by any chance? i was brought up in the uk so i can't exactly type chinese but i can write a little
雅黑字体_14mb is a Chinese font
马兰花全屏手写 is to hand write, I found it at http://bbs.cnsmartphone.com/thread-441569-1-1.html
梅花输入法 is a pinyin input I found it at http://www.dayhand.com/temp/PlumSIP6VGABeta2.rar
Thank you for the information. I'm sorry to be a pain but since I really can't begin to search for the font:
[FONT="]雅黑字体[/FONT][FONT="]_14mb [/FONT]
in English, is there any way you could let me know if it is freely available and poiint me in the directin of a download site? I know I'm asking you to do some search for me but I'm not being lazy - I really can't do this on my own.
Thank you in advance for any extra help you can give.
I'm in the same boat. I don't read or write Chinese, but want to be able to display it on a WWE HD. CE-Star corrupted my softkey backgrounds (see here .)
The search continues
Funnily enough I have that same problem with my softkeys and I hadn't even heard of CE Star.
Mine seems to correct itself after every second or third soft reset an d I think was initially caused by trialling AEButtons Plus. Unfortunately, having uninstalled AEB+ many days ago, I wouldn't know which orphan files to look for any more.
Do please update this post if you find an adequate solution to displaying the Chinese fonts. I will do likewise.
In the following website you can find the package I used to display Chinese in the past year or so, on Kaiser and HD, the package also includes an input method but I use touchpal instead for Chinese input.
!!!!!IMPORTANT NOTE!!!!! PLEASE READ BEFORE INSTALL
The msjh.cab is not officially supported on HD, I had to install multiple times to get it working - failed installation result in freeze that you can only get your phone back by HARD RESET! However once it works (restart after the phone without freeze) the problem never comes back, I have tried many many times and combination however cannot find a right combination to bypass the problem constantly..
Because of the problems above, please use it with caution. But I have to say this package in combination with touchpal (which are both free) is the best package for Chinese reading/writing I have tried so far, I have used CEStar and Monster Chinese, both have intermittent problems, compare to the package I am using, although not perfect, but it only gives you headache until you get it installed successfully.
http://www.studiokuma.com/wm/?section=support
(click on the link read "msjh.cab (3610KB)" to download, you will need to check the checkbox and click on the accept button on the popup page to start the download)
Note: you can also download the "droid.cab (1469KB)" on the same site, which will install the "Google Droid Sans Fallback" font, its very pretty and clear.
Fantastic - although scary! Since I am only interested in output rather than input, would it be safer for me to just install the Google Droid font? (I assume this is a Chinese font). And is WinMo clever enough to know that all incoming chinese text can be displayed in this font rather than ASCII or do I need to chnage some things to point it there?
Much appreciated lawrencel... I have ibnstalled only the droid font, and all looks well. It required a soft reset after install and no issues whatsoever.
When I try to download from that site, it gives me a 404 error file not found, can anybody upload it somewhere else. I'm only interested in the fonts only as well, thanks in advance.
edit: I went back to the website and tried to download again, noticed that I forgot to turn javascript block off, now it's download just fine. Works on first attempt, was kind of hesistant to install it after what I have read in this thread, but glad nothing bad happens. My thanks goes to lawrencel for the link.
I just downloaded and installed the "droid.cab (1469KB)" with expectation to be able to display chinese characters as well, and as the result, my HD has restarted by itself more than 10 times and I have not even saw the result yet. Now I have to find a way to uninstall it immediately. No sure what is the problem, but my HD cannot complete the reset process and keep restarting itself.
马兰花全屏手写 is this simplified chinese only?
No way to back out. I have to hard-reset my HD. I would advice you not to install this.
I have never seen such an intrusive software.
No easy way out
Here's a detailed reply I got on another forum :
The problem with IE (and any other browser/email program) is that most mainland chinese web pages are encoded in GB2312. A lot of traditional ones use Big5. The code pages for these charsets aren't included in the standard windows mobile builds. There are a few solutions to this problem:
Install the code pages
Unfortunately easier said than done. The relevant file is called wince.nls, and you can get the right version it if you search for it. However the only way to install it is download a ROM where someone cooked it in, or cook it in yourself.
Install CE-Star
CE-Star has a special hack which installs the full wince.nls file. However I believe it's this hack along with their anti-piracy garbage that makes CE-Star so flaky on many systems. However if reading this content is important to you you're pretty much stuck with this option unless you're technical and enterprising enough to muck with the first option.
I am only interested in simplified Chinese, but given what I've been hearing about CE-Star, I most probably won't install it. Until I find a ROM to download, I will stick with A4 and go check my Chinese mail directly with Opera.
And I'll check whether I can get any replacement email program that can handle Chinese, don't know whether QMAIL does.
Has anyone found so far any trusted method to receive sms, mails, surf web in chinese and keep the system in english??
Has anyone install the msjh.cab file lawrencel is talking about?
So far 2 members has installed the droid file, for one it worked marvellous for the another it was a disaster
Sorry to hear this is still a problem for some. What I didn't realise until a couple of days ago is that CE-Star Suite II is bundled with the Touch HD English version here in HKG. The EULA shows "CE-Star 1.1 License Agreement (05-25-2000)". I haven't installed it (and don't plan to because droid works) it but maybe someone has and can report back for other users.
works partially
with both the sunglobe font and ZTA4_VGA installed, I enter text in Chinese, display Chinese without any problem in Opera, IE, SMS, outlook-synched email, and the subject line of downloaded pop3 emails. Of course Pleco works beautifully, but they have their own system. All of the above in both simplified an traditional characters.
What I still can't do is read the body text of pop3 emails, which drives me crazy. I suspect this has to do with GB-encoding (I use simplified Chinese), which does not seem to be supported by either FlexMail or the WM native mail.
The weird thing is, I have an auto-forward from my pop3 email to Outlook at the office. After synching, the emails that come out garbled in my pop3 inbox display perfectly in the outlook inbox. It looks like Outlook does perform the GB to UTF-8 conversion automatically.
HELP!
I only receive SMS only when the screen is lighted. If my HD is on standby the whole day, I wouldnt receive a single SMS. THis is irritating. Whenever I ON my screen, I would receive a couple of msgs at one go, all timed hours ago. Its really irritating!!!
Anyone experience the same issue???
are u using phoneLog for logging calls and sms to calendar? I experienced this - and sometimes even did not receive any sms - when I used that app ...

Nope, non of the above... have been using HD for a month plus.. still not receiving sms when on STANDBY with screen OFF... sigh.. I on my screen every couple of mins to ensure im not missing a reply to someone's sms... ugghhh!
Is this when your in vibrate mode or normal? For vibrate to work I found you have to enable it in the sound settings. This is not normally needed but for some reason you have to on our devices :S
My Touch HD is back in its box precisely because SMS (text) messages did not alert me to their arrival when the HD was in standby.
I tried all the suggestions made by other posters, including hard reset, but none worked reliably. Reading some of the posts reveals that this bug has existed since the Diamond came out but HTC is in no hurry to fix it.
I can't tell whether any of the 'ROMs' that others produce will cure this problem and am left with an expensive paperweight.
For the time being, I am back using my Treo 680, which has no problems with SMS. Sadly, I shall have to abandon it eventually because Palm does not intend to produce 64bit drivers to enable synchronization. Ah, well, nothing's perfect!

OMG! thats sad! but seriously Im feeling the same.. sometimes when i go out, i switch to a cheap basic spare fone (LG KP110). its sms is way more reliable.. I bought the HD at SG$1250 and yet I cant receive SMSs.. sighz.. tot of selling it away.. but not.. but yes.. maybe not.. sighz...
same here
I have the same issue. Randomly SMS sound does not play until i turn on the screen. I m using stock 1.56 UK Rom. I have a friend at the office with same phone and he is facing the same problem.
All settings are correct. It's obvious because lot of times i get the sound notification while in standby mode....
Don't know what to do.....cheapest phones do this right...
That is so true! i totally agree.. Sometimes it goes back to basic.. the HD gets too complicated that it doesnt even know how to notify its owner of an incoming sms.. this sucks big time.. till this very day I haf to on and off my screen every 10mins to ensure i dun miss a single sms..
If you use HD Tweak, there is an option to set the HD to wake up and notify you when it receives an SMS...
is there a way i can receive an sms with a sound notification instead of the whole phone waking up with screen lit?
is there a way to shorten the vibration when an SMS comes in? the HD vibrates quite long and strong for a single SMS. Just curious. Might help abit in saving battery's life.
Hi, I had this problem after I installed the WWE 1.14 for Middle East, especially after installing the official Arabic Lang. update from HTC !!! When I wake up the Phone from the stanby mode I Receive all the incoming messages at once and the Phone plays the SMS alert !
After Hard resetting the phone and installing a new ROM (1.19 WWE for Hong Kong) the problem didnt go till I went to Settings---> Sounds and Notifications-----> new SMS----> Disable Alert, Vibrator, Falshing Light !!! Basically disable everything and press OK to return to the touch FLO home.
After that, Go again and enable the SMS notification with or without Vibration as you like and it will work !!!
Now, I discovered that any programm that is not made buy a software house, I mean programms made by home developers prematurely screw your system especially programms that interfere with the Windows Shell and System processes and Alerts !!!
My advice is Install a fresh new WWE rom (1.19), if the alert didnt work, Go disable the Alert, press ok, return to home screen, then go back and enable it and it will work !! it seems that there are some things that does not change in the phone settings even if you hard reset or install a new ROM !!!!
For 1.19 WWE and some other Roms, Dont close SMS application directly after sending a message, just press the Home button to return back ! the SMS application interface will stay in the bakground and wont take more than 1% from your free memory ! I noticed even on my current 1.19 rom is if I send an SMS and diredcly Click the X to close the application after sending the message it will cause the phone not to receive next sms untill I open the SMS application !!! Any how, you can close it after a minute if it bothers you to keep it in the background.
I hope this helps !!! I used Duttys 1.17 and faced the 'Coruppted Ringtone problem', that the phone wont ring and switch to a default ring that is not loud and made me miss calls, only soft reset solved it but it came back every 2 weeks !!! no body could solve it even Dutty dont know what is the problem !!!
At the end it is a phone !!! should call, Ring, Send and Receive calls perfectly !! Any Small Samsung or Nokia or SonyEricsson phone worth 100 $ could do the job perfectly while we pay 800 $ for this HD and it cant ring o receive SMS !!!
Therfore, my advice is to use Stock Rom and dont install any programm that is made at home !!! or any other programm that interere with the system process and alerts or Language !!! Do not play with memory management or registry settings !!!
To customize my phone I installed SPB shell and its wonderfull and better than Touch flo except for the Music Player as you will have to use Window Media !!!
Goo Luck
Another tip,
Go to the registry using registry editor and change si follows:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\BuiltIn\RIL
Locate DisableSMSWakeUpEvent entry, and change its value to 0 (the value is 1 by default).
Hope this helps
I suggest that you change your rom

I support this view. Don't be disheartened as probs like this rarely have anything to do with hardware and are generally software bugs which are cured by just updating to official / custom ROM. (this is the best and yet worst part of thing called Micro$oft )
Please read pros and cons of flashing roms well before trying anyhing !
Hi!
you can see on attachement my widget, but I need a little more help to finish...
I test it on my Nexus One and it worked nicely as on the emulator.
My problem is after deleting or receiving new sms.
the sms database don't seem to update untill I close my widget.
I think that is du to the fact the database isn't close until I use the widget.
So can I "close and reopen" my widget without the user see it? Or does it exist a solution to close more than the cursor after taking the message I need?
If I have to use SQLiteDatabaseHelper How do I open sms database by this way?
You also can post comment on my work if want.
my widget work on android 1.6 to 2.1
feature:
- show sms received
- button to open conversation and reply
- button to delete
- button to send a new sms
- button to navigate in sms/inbox
bug to fix:
- refresh after change in sms database
feature to come if bug fix:
- animation beetwin sms
- mark read unread sms
thank's for reading me (excuse my frenchy English..!)
Nice work, I would like to test it. And if needed and supported, I could make a translation to greek. PM me if it's possible.
Hi,
if you're looking for translators I can do the Italian and German part
Greets
Thank's for your answer, I may ask you later, but before I have to correct my last bug. Because even if my widget seems to be nice, we always recieve and delete messages, and that make this bug embarrassing...
I've find so many thing's to buid this that I'm convince I will find how correct it... But a little help will really advance my project wich is building a pack of widget....
Very cool widget!
Not a programmer sorry, but I can help translate to Danish
ooookkkkk!
When it will be finish, I really have to make a multilingual version!!
I would recommend posting this in stackoverflow.com and tag it with android. They are pretty fast answering.
I haven't made any widgets but maybe you should try and check the Notepad Tutorial ( http://d.android.com/resources/tutorials/notepad/notepad-ex3.html ), specially the fillData() method. It works for refreshing the listview.
I allready post on android's forum like stackoverflow and they don't wan't answer me. One beg me to stop my work because a new version of android coold change the method of storing sms and my program will break and it coold maked something like "polluted code?"
But my point of view is that I have a nice Nexus One and I want widget which can do more than what we can find on the market...
Thank you for your post, I will check the site you gave me...
Reading the documentation the minimum refresh update time is 30 min. for widgets. So maybe that's why your widget is not updating.
It seems that you will need to set an alarm if you want faster updates. Here there is some discussion about that: http://groups.google.com/group/android-developers/browse_thread/thread/963a41b2be0ff545?pli=1
I think that the probleme do not come from refreshing my widget but it come from the refresh of the mmssms database.
So I have decided to change my way to acces to this database and want use the path "data/data/...../mmssms.db". When I want to acces to the dataBase by this way, it failed to open the database.
Why changing th way to open thi database and not use "content://sms"?
Because by this android seems to managed the file mmssms.db and open it for you to manage your cursor, that's why we don't use DBadapter... but the fact is android do not close the Database until your program is close (I think) and do not update the database because the file is probably in mode "alone read"... So I wante to managed open and close by myself to be sure if I am wrong or right.
the mmssms.db fil isn't openable for security reason's. So I try to understand why content provider do not refresh until I close the widget but I have no answer. I am searching for other's solution too but I have not enough information to ending my widget so I hesitate to fall down developpement of my widget...
Nice work
