ei99070: as it says in the thread, if you lose the dots after loading the program, it means that the start bar has drawn over the dots. The dots are drawn top left corner, and they're just a stand in for now, they'll be replaced by something more useful later ("navipanel").

If you do lose them, you need to use a task manager like wisbar, magic button, small menu etc, to activate VJFullscreenTSC. This should bring the dots back topmost again.

If this still doesn't work and you're sure you've loaded VJFullscreenTSC, then temporarily exit wisbar etc. I'm not sure what task managers you guys use, but because of where the dots are positioned (over the startbar) various skinning processes could draw over it. As I said, the dots will be replaced later.

Post with any problems and I'll get them sorted. I use SmallMenu and that works well to reactivate it.

Here's a thought: on Win32 API we can make a window on top, can't you make the same with your app? :wink:

I didn't check the API on WM, so this is only a suggestion!

Best regards!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] vijay555:
ei99070: a good thought, which is why it's what I do :D

However, the Start bar (particularly if skinned) can take precedence if it wants to.

As I said, I will replace the dots (I experimented by putting them under the start bar, but it's ugly), so once the beta has been tested ok, I'll work on changing the dots into something useful and not on top of the start bar!

I just needed somewhere that was discrete and wouldn't interfere with use of the client itself.

Great work, it works! Refreshing is much better than WM05 build in sw. These are my problems/questions:

1- on my JasJar and WM2005, even if I set sw for full screen I can't have it. Any solution?

2- When I try to access to my leading profile, it says there are restrictions. So I have to access with "Guest" profile. How can I solve this? (my pc is working with XP Prof. and WiFi router)

3- I have tried to open a MSWord file (office 2003), but it goes in error becouse of something missing. What could it be? Is there some upgrade I have to do in orther to use MSWord via terminal service?

THX a lot!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] vijay555:
Ok guys, I'm back from Harry Potter. That was good stuff.

I've updated the program a tiny bit, extending the "dots" to slightly extend below the start button. Hence it shold not be able to be obscured.

asci: I don't quite understand - you know I'm not changing the terminal services, well just to patch it so that we can make it fullscreen. It shouldn't change refresh rate, but if it does, great!

However, it's only true function is to make the terminal services client fullscreen. Is it not doing this!?

I'm not sure I understand this about the leading profile. I suggest you try installing the concurrent user patch, which provides the useful feature of staying logged on as one user, and still using remote client on another user.

Question 3, re word: man, this is quite silly, but I've literally never used the terminal services client. I just made the hack, as we say in the UK, "for a laugh". Can't help you about what to do with it...

Will there be a way to connect to "/console" sessions or to different ports than 3389?

Thank you
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] ei99070:
I think you are not seeing the whole picture here!! All this app does is make the terminal service client on WM2005 fullscreen! This is NOT a replacement app, but sort of an add-on!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] francorg:
Ok.. but maybe there could be a "console addon" :D

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] vijay555:
new version out v0.2

Guys, I've released a slightly updated v0.2.

It corrects the oversight that WM2003 users lost the sip and couldn't enter any info. :oops:

Hopefully I'll get some work done on this next few days. I've had so little feedback though :(

FYI just checked out the xbox 360 launch on oxford st (I'm not a nerd, I just happened to be in the area. Seriously) Was a real damp squib. Literally. Raining... no screaming hordes. no one mugged on the streets. And only 6 policemen guarding :shock:

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] thaihugo:
Hello VJ, I tryed your version, but I've seen a small quirk: If I ask to adapt the serveur desktop size to the pocket screen, I get a maximum size of 640x(480 minus top bar and SIP bar)

Do you have a way to hack the response about client screen size to give a 640x480 answer so we get full screen and no scrollbar?

TIA
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] vijay555:
thaihugo: the 640x480 screen size is a limitation of the terminal services client. I've had a preliminary look at tricking the client, and will investigate further, but this is not a limitation of my hack, so it's a question to throw out hopefully to the wider community.

As indicated in the first post, the scrollbar hiding option will come shortly.

v0.1 and 0.2 are just a test of the technique I used to make the client window fullscreen. GUI work and additional functionality will be added when I'm satisfied from feedback that the program generally works. In some 2,400 downloads I've had approximately 1 indication that it works, thanks to asci. And I'm not even sure he got it to work. So I'm not working further until I get a bit more verification.

I am aware that there is a black bar at the bottom of the expanded client window. Will be addressed in next release hopefully.

V
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] thaihugo:
About feedback, I'm sure people will test it over time. I've actually tested it only today for the first time.

About the screen size, I now this is something comming from the video driver answering the request from the server. We might get it either from the screen size answer, or by tweaking the network packet beiing send. I don't know if somebody can go further.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] simon_darley:
okidoki, gave it a very quick test just by connecting to my local xp machine as ts and it worked "ok".

that big black bar at the bottom is frustrating

the start bar and start button is still off screen, thus defeating most of the full screen benefits

I still founf having scroll bars within scroll bars frustrating, which should go away if the whole thing was full screen, if its going to marginally fall short, smaller tsc bars would be better

by the way, I think its ridiculous that any software developer doesn't test their own software, surely you have some access to ts box or even an xp pro machine.

I have worked with sw developers, and ,y wife is one, and still believe that the public should not be yor ALPHA testers.

I will try again sometime during the week on my ts box at work, currently I cannot get jj to connect a vpn to the sbs at work AND continue to "hold" the connection while I run tsc over the vpn to our dedicated ts box. so will have to wait until I have15mins of free time at work (unlikely)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] vijay555:
Thanks Simon.

I think you entirely missed the point of why I was asking for testing, and why I volunteer my own efforts for the benefits of the "public", being the XDA Dev community.

I myself work in a full time professional non-programming job, and developed this app in my spare time purely for the benefit of the community, since I don't use it at all. Since I have no need for the program, and as you have no time or need for it, please don't test further.

64k color? That would be nice!

Is there anyway to get 64k color? Reg hack or something. I know it has to be possible because the citrix client for pocket pc will do it. Just a thought. terminal services with 64k color yay, that would rock.

Mike
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] vijay555:
tintoy: thanks for your comments. As indicated above, I don't think there's anything to open source right now. Code is very minimal, and I think

sl9's GPLed code is likely to be significantly more polished than I can present right now: I'm still very new to C++.

If anyone is interested though, it works by subclassing the viewer window to take control of its functionality. I've always been weary of

subclassing, and you should be to, which was why I needed to know that the program exhibits no unexpected issues etc.

Mikee4fun: re 64k colour. To quote the show Blackadder,

I can think of three possible ways of achieving this, each of which I'm investigating.

1. A registry hack. Easy if it works. I was investigating this yesterday but I got somewhat distracted last night for reasons that might be

apparent, and stopped my research on the point of reaching a conclusion. Will post here if it's possible.

2. Hack or reimplement the Thin Client: an extension of what I'm doing now, but proven unproductive so far. Particularly with WM5 code being signed, I investigated removing the code signing or resigning the client, but I think someone with more experience of this might be able to help. Harder to do,

but seems that there's only so much we can do from the "outside".

3. Write a new TS Client. Way beyond my experience, but you could try the java client.

Sigh. I hope someone finds this info helpful.

V

PS I've been asked to try to hack the citrix client to. I'll post if I'm successful, although I could do with a test server to connect to. Anyone?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] thaihugo:
To sign an exe, you need to use this tool, and to have a proper certificate installed in your certificate store. You can then sign any exe to make it run, even after modification. Just run it and follow the steps.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] vijay555:
Guys, I'm having major difficulties posting to the board, so sorry for slow updates.

I've tried the registry hacks, and they're mostly futile as far as I can see. We can change connection port, and perhaps some settings, but from what I've read and experienced, colour depth is fixed.

However, in line with option 3 above, I've had a thought and recompiled cetsc.exe for ARM. It loads on WM5 but is just giving a dialog. If I can get it to load an .rdp, I'll post my findings here. That would be a great result though.

V
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] vijay555:
Guys, I'm updating to v0.3

updates: Scrollbar hiding and some navigation control

When the scrollbars are hidden, use the VJFullScreenTSC menu to navigate around if you're in QVGA.

Issues: the startbutton is unaccessible until you scroll down, so you have to use the menu, scroll down a bit, and then use the start button. This will be corrected shortly.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] vijay555:
Guys, I've updated a very tiny bit, VJFullscreenTSC 0.4, just for dreamtheater39.

This version will just hopefully pop up the VJFullScreenTSC menu if you try to load it a second time. Thus, you can perhaps assign it to a hardware key to load up the menu, if you have trouble hitting the menu dots in the top left.

I have thought a lot about my comments since I first wrote them.

at the time of writing, I had never seen vjay around before and had seen a few people using the forum to promote their own products or interests by linking to their related websites, plus I was probably just feeling like an ass on the day as you have indicated.

sooo cut bull**** story short, you are right.

VIJAY

I would like to formally and on the public forum rather than a PM, state for the record that I am sorry for my rude and inconsiderate statements that I made.

I have since seen you around many times and your assistance and help to those around less fortunate and less knowledgable should be commended.

so, in summary, i'm sorry vijay. you will find my comments now edited.

cheers

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] vijay555:
Simon, many many thanks.

Your comments did frustrate me very much at the time, and although I was still very new to programming (and still am! Always something new to learn and hack), I decided at that point not to share any of my programs or assistance any further.

However, I love this board, and can't help but respond on any queries that I think I can add something useful to. Even I get bored of me sometimes. However, even though we're all just a loose band of geeks, it's that very bond that makes it a fraternity.

So I threw myself back in, and now I'm suffering the consequences. I've got more apps than I can satisfactorily support, when I'm working full time as well, so perhaps people get frustrated. But, if I'm not supporting and bug fixing my apps at this second, I'm writing a new one for tomorrow :)

It's exhausting, but as I've said elsewhere, I love programming for the personal satisfaction. However, what makes it more than one man's perversion is that you guys are here to share it with me!

Ok, it's 20.45 and I'm still in the office after a very long day. Time to go home. And start programming 8)

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] vijay555:
Guys, I'm posting a pre-beta update.

Hopefully this one has a bit more error checking and fixes the infamous "can't touch the good bits down below" bug. If you've tried it, you know what I mean.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Taz69:
Not sure if this will be of any interest but the TS Client isn't locked to 640x480. After playing aroun with Virtual Display it appears that other screen resolutions work as well.

Also VJTSC plays pretty well with Virtual Display, 800x600 and 1024x768 are both useable on the Universal using VJTSC to free up real estate and Virtual Display to navigate. Even the 'Fit Display' option scales just the required remote display without the additional bars.

The only thing that doesn't work is the overlayed graphic that is used to access the menu, though this isn't a problem because it can still be accessed through the Start menu via the keyboard.

It would be handy if VJTSC saved a small config file as Hiding the SIP and ensuring the screen is scrolled top,left is a little fiddly each time but TS from a Universal with 800x600 and 1024x768 options is now so useful I might have to put up with Virtual Display's failings and buy the damn thing.

The virtual display software that I have been using is Nyditot's Virtual Display 5.02. On the Universal it is pretty picky abut the rom installed. With the orginal Orange MSFP rom it would lock up as soon as you booted, with the latest QTEC rom it seems much better.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Osku958:
i was using some jelly bean sony rom by divaksh (it had cwm touch) and i wanted to try the new cm10.2 rom by munjeni

i downloaded the cm10.2, put it on my external sd card through a usb micro-sd reader and then put the µsd back in the phone

i selected "reboot to recovery" from the phone's power menu (i had an xposed module for more power menu options)

then i noticed that the phone didn't reboot, but it had turned off completely

i held the power button and the phone vibrated but didn't power on

it powered on on the second try, i then went to the cwm recovery by tapping the volume down key

(i was going to make a backup of the current system, but i forgot it lol)

i flashed the cm10.2 zip (cm10.2_pepper-ota-eng.root_Build.1.zip) without doing any wipes, because i wanted to get to the correct version of cwm recovery

(i would've properly done the wipes/formats from the cwm recovery that is in the cm10.2 kernel)

it finished flashing the zip and i rebooted my phone, but then it didn't power on anymore

now when i hold down the power button, the phone makes a short vibration but nothing else

.

if i plug the phone to a charger, the led lights up (red) for approximately a second and then turns off

if i hold down "volume-down" and the power button, the phone vibrates once and flashes the led (green)

i've tried going into flashmode and fastboot mode but the light doesn't stay on for long and sony mobile flasher doesn't even notice the phone even though the drivers are installed

the "hold down power button and vol-up"-thing also works but it doesn't seem to do anything else than vibrate

what should i do?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Hamza Murad:
Is your bootloader unlocked?

If yes then flahs
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Osku958:
what?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Hamza Murad:
Is it unlocked?

When I bricked my xperia p I flashed a custom kernel which allowed me to enter Cwm and then flashed the stock rom. I am new to this flashing thing so I recommend that you ask someone experienced what to do. I just shared my experience of recovering from a softbrick. Don't flash new things blindly but ask someone experienced before doing so.

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] ChikeD:
Have you used flashtool to flash firmware before on that PC?

Have you installed flashtool and it's drivers (sola, flash & fastboot mode).?

Make sure the phobe is off, press power + volume up untill you feel 1 + 3 vibrations and see if it stay in flash mode longer.

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Osku958:
how? the phone doesn't boot and flashtool doesn't recognize it
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] manudo:
Same problem here, I think that Munjeni's post is bad written.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] manudo:
Ok, I fixed it, follow my instructions as they goes. You have to flash the .img kernel that CM10.2.zip comes from.

For flashing it, go as follows...

First try to install the following drivers, with Flashtool. The executable is in C:\\Flashtool\drivers

Run as adminsitrator and follow screen instructions, allow any driver install.

When it's ready, try to plug in the phone in fastboot mode (turn off, hold power and vol up and release power button, led has to turn blue/violet/pink, whatever, a color like that)

Run flashtool.

Flashtool will recognize the phone as the log says, if its not try to install drivers mannually.

If it's recognized then click the black lightning button and select fast boot mode.

At the right side click "Select kernel to flash" and browse the kernel that comes in the .zip. (in the file you've downloaded you have to extract a boot.ini because is the main kernel to make the ROM work, so you have to put somewhere else, I prefer desktop)

When selected, log writes all the procedure until it show an "OKAY[time]" message.

Finally click "Reboot device into system" in the center side and wait until boots.

It should be working now, I spent a lot of hours investigating, but finally I fixed, hope it works for you too! :)

If there's an error or some question, feel free to post.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] akkufix:
That was "the long run" for windows-guys. ;)

For Linux - no drivers needed anyways - just download fastboot from anywhere and look for kernel. Put them in a personal directory. Open and run in a terminal (some have to be login as su) "fastboot flash boot kernel.img" (or whatever kernel is called...), plug phone in usb, while press and hold power and volume-up buttons. Blue LED comes shining and terminal tell you the flashing.

Unplug or type "fastboot reboot" to re-start phone.

Sure, you also can use FlashTool, too. But for only flashing a kernel it is not needed. Only for flashing stockrom ftf. But this is another story. ;)
