You should have installed the program correctly. The reason why after upgrade, the program won't reset the clock is that the OS's event notification is not quite relible for the first few minutes after the notification is set, please test it after several hours :)

In an earlier post Water said to use NotePad to edit the .ine file and to save edits in USC2. Notepad does not have a save option entitled USC2, but it does have save as unidcode big endian which apparently is the same. I am a happy camper. I got this to work. Before when I saved the .ini file in notepad just using unicode, I got an error message after a soft reset.

Re: Right and Left Soft Keys Not Working

Water,

The .41 version works well. If I change for any newer version, they softkeys do not work. I tried with the same (from .41) ini file, the result is the same. The problem could be in the closing mechanism, if I use the newer versions without ini file , this case works, (but of course do not close the applications).

Thanks

Hi Water,

i have still problems to get the latest version running: Maybe i have started smartskey once from the storage card (i have copied the porggi from PC to Mini SD and then i moved (really a move) the files to the PPCs main memory). Now i get every time i switch on the PDA the error message: "Can not open 'Storage Card/.../Smartskey.exe'".

I dont get rid of it: I deactivated smartskey by starting the exe from the other location in the main memory by starting smartkey again. The normal window appears which ask me if i really want to close it. I pressed yes. I removed the link in the autosart folder and resetted the device. Nothing helps. The warning is back again as soon as i switch on the PDA - although i havent started smartskey any more.

Have you got some hints?

Re: pop up when i turn on my MDA

Did you install smartskey to internal storage or a card? That happened to me when I put it on a card, but the problem disappeared when I put it on the device. I think WM5 starts running startup programs before it initializes the storage card.

Either that or the link in your startup menu is pointing to the wrong place. Check the shortcut to make sure it is.

Figuring out class for app exception list?

Water,

First of all, great app! Really!

In your documentation, you say "For class name, you cannot easily see it, I am using Spy to check it that is one of the development tool."

Is the "spy" that you refer to the debugging items in WM5 (Internal Use Spy) that is accessed by holding the action button and tapping the title bar?

I'm asking because I'm trying to get a particular app (verichat from pdaapps.com) to be on the exclude list. I used SKtools to create an alias and tried to add that alias to the exception list (but since it is an app and not a bunch of classes, it doesn't work.

So, my question(s)...

1) do you happen to know the class info/names for verichat (you can download a trial of the app if you need to)

2) how can I use the Internal Use Spy to figure out the class information? (if you have the steps to figure it out...I can do it...I just don't get the "dump to parent" comment...and don't want to try it without knowing.

Thanks and keep up the good work!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] pinhead:
I don't have "omap clock" settings installed (I'm guessing that is a program) so I haven't modified them. I assume that Smartskey wouldn't change anything like that in its default form, which is how I left it.

I have a spare device, an MDA, and I'll set the .52 version up on that phone to see what happens. I really don't want to reset my main phone right now...

Also, just so I won't be just whining, I want to thank Water for making this program available. It really is the most user-friendly program on this device. It is precisely what should have been included on the device from the start so I thank you for making this a much better experience for me and everyone else.

Re: Figuring out class for app exception list?

Yes, I use remote spy. Just open it and you can see the class name for each windows.

I found out what was making my device reset when using the .52 version of Smartskey. It seems to be attributed to letting it Close programs instead of just Minimizing them the way that the program had done before. With the .52 version the .ini file has it set to close by default, but that made my Qtek 9100 unstable.

Could it be that this function is conflicting with Spb Pocket Plus, which also enables me to Close programs? Is there anyone else who experienced the same issue?

It is fixed by changing the .ini file so that programs are minimized, in the event anyone needs to know.

To make press-and-hold of the right key turn off the device, but only on the today screen.

I suggest this because I find myself closing out of items, heading toward shutting down the device and returning it to my pocket, and the button on top is both inconvenient and an unnatural switch; moreover press and hold currently does nothing here.

I hadn't figured that was possible, but since the volume has a "check for today," why not the right key?

4. Did a soft-reset

Re: How to remove it completly ?

Okay, if you remember downloading smartskey there was a pdf bundled with the download. Well that takes care of your uninstall question but ill lay it out for you anyways.

I have uninstalled previous versions before with NO hitch doing exactly as the pdf says:

Un-installation

a. run smartskey.exe once, a popup will be shown, tap “Yes” to close the program.

b. delete the folder that store smartskey

c. check /windows/startup to see if there is any shortcut that link to smartskey.

d. Make a soft reset. All mapped keys will have no function afterwards before next reset.

Works every time.

I think I need to elaborate more on my post above. I was wondering if it was possible to make the comm button work as a toggle switch between the system volume slider and the ringer volume slider when you are changing volume. Currently, the only way to toggle between sliders is to tap with a stylus or use the D-Pad to move the focus rectangle over. If smarstkey could remap the comm button only while the volume slider is open, and use an algorithm to check which slider currently has focus and then toggle between them by simulating either a right or left D-Pad press that would make it insanely easy to change both volume levels while my left thumb only, making an already great application even better

When the wizard booted back up I got a notification error saying it couldn't run Smartskey.exe and if I copy the files back to the wizard and run smartskey.exe it asks if I want to close smartskey, though it should be asking if i want to install it. Where am I going wrong with the uninstall?
