New Ideal Coming to My Brain in the Early Morning

Dear Water, I came to your topic almost every week. Unfortunately, I haven't saw your reply for the above bug discription. Hope the DPAD actions on sub-windows derived from Phone Application can be fixed in your next update.

Anyway, I just got a new idea about your excellent software. It is about the OMAP clock fuction. Right now, SmartSKey can fix a clock value for omapclock.exe. Can you make an enhanced function for it to manually adjust the clock value. You may add 4 or 5 parameter in the ini file for overclock and underclock. Such as the OMAP clock value can be underclocked to 60 or 80 MHz when the PPC turned to sleep. and go in stepping back to 180 or 240 MHz when it were awake. A button even can be assigned to active a manual adjustion of the clock value via the volume slider. I'm sure such function will significantly advance the performance of OMAP CPU, minewhile, prolong the standby time of the battery.

I know Oliy has published a software called OmapScaler. It can automatically adjust the OMAP clock based on the CPU load. But it make the PPC very unstable with frequently restarting. And because it need to frequently check the CPU loading, it will case high CPU and memory occupancy. I found the CPU load is always 100% when the software loads. But with SmartSKey, the OMAP clock only be adjusted manually, almost no additional CPU load is need. And for current version, the parameter OMAPCLOCK seems have no relationship with the soft and other keys. After you add the new fuction, the OMAP clock and some keys will be linked together. It's much smarter!
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] rissala:
Thanx for the reply...

I thought that part was clear... But to be on the safe side I even removed all the ExceptionList form the ini file... Still I'm getting the same issue... the LSKey and RSKey are not working... I can still see the Applications in Memory after closing them...

Any thoughts ?

Hello Water,

and thanks for this great application.

One thing that would help use the prophet, or any handheld device, to be used with one hand, is an application scroll through function. Something similar to what is in windows XP by holding alt and then pressing tab. This way one could scroll to the open application that one wanted directly.

I was trying to think of some configuration in the INI file that would do this, but could not find anything.

Do you have any ideas?

thanks.

I've got an HP hw6945 (HTC Sable). I can't get the softkeys or dpad to respond properly like they do on my MDA (wizard). The slider scrolls pages, but nothing else works.

I've tried with and without the ini file, both for version .52 which is what's on my MDA and version .56. I've uninstalled according to the readme and rebooted, but nothing seems to work.

Are there any reg hacks needed?

This is one of my favorite programs on my MDA. Thanks for all your efforts.

TIA.

WM6 issues with smartskey

I am using smartskey in Orwell's WM6 ROM and none of the changes I make to the ini file seem to work. No matter what setting I change it only uses the default behavior. Is anyone else having this problem?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] juiceppc:
I have a question. Does anyone else's smartskey not reliably overclock on wake up. I swear this happens on every ROM i've tried. When I wake up my Wizard and check the clock speed it often is at 180 and not 252 like it is stated in smartskey.ini. Sometimes it does set it to 252 and sometimes it doesn't. I usually use BatteryStatus but now that I have WM6 Battery status isn't working properly and I'm stuck with OMAPCLOCK and SMARTSKEY. Does anyone else experience this and have a "fix" to make it overclock everytime reliably.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] nottoosmart:
you need to get omapclock and omapclock plus package. that will keep it overclocked constantly

Smartskey is great, use it in combination with magic button (which is freeware) and you will close your apps easily.

SmartsKey does not uninstall

I seem to be having a problem with getting Smartskey to work properly. After following the steps to install the two files (in the storage card), the program does not have any effect on the volume slider or on either of the two softkeys.

So for that reason I decided to uninstall the program. I eliminated the start up shortcut and deleted the two files on the storage card and did a soft reset. Every time the phone comes out of sleep I get this notification error that Windows mobile 5 cannot find the Smartskey executable.

What can I do to solve this problem? Ideally, what can I do to get the program to work properly. I feel that there is possibly some conflict with pocket informant which writes to the soft keys.

SmartsKey not disabled with Calendar

I use SmartsKey (v0.56) happily with my Cingular 8125, except that it still is active with my standard Calendar application.

It is specific to the Agenda and Day views, where the left/right DPAD buttons scroll days (same as the up/down DPAD buttons) instead of the "SmartsKey-off" functionality of scrolling through items in a day.

In the Week view, it does the "right" thing: left/right DPAD buttons scroll by days, while up/down DPAD buttons scroll by weeks.

Is this the expected v0.56 behavior? (Reading the release notes, I assume should not remap DPAD functionality in Calendar at all, but maybe I'm wrong....)

I upgraded from earlier versions and have reinstalled v0.56 a few times, but no change. My 8125 uses standard OS 5.1.70. Thoughts?

Thanks Water

Thanks Water for an excellent bit of software. Has made my K-jam at least 50% more functional. Seriously makes you wonder why this is not implemented in the OS in the first place.

I have been using this software for almost 8 months now and just stumbled upon this site (and came to know the developer), and wanted to say "Great Job".

What would make this software better? Not much really... only if you could somehow include an option to switch between running software which is another important bit the Microsoft guys forgot... I know there are other apps out there which allow you to do this, but nothing beats not having to install another software ;-) and also I'm sure the implementation would be just as superb...

Scroll Bar Toggle

Water,

First off, AWESOME PROGRAM!!! This is great for one handed use. Would you consider adding a function to the volume scroll bar function? I have noticed using a friends smartphone with a scroll wheel that the function will either scroll by page or by item depending on the nature of the program being used. Additionally, once you have highlighted a specifice program the user can depress the scroll wheel as a selection or enter function. I know the 8125 does not have an actual scroll wheel but can your program be set to determine the need for scrolling by page or by item and then from there using the button atop the volume slider (currently the Comm Manager by default) act as a selection key?

Thanks again for a great program.

Hi,

I have exactly the same issue but it appears that for some reason the shortcut on my PPC keeps getting deleted so Smartskey doesn't restart automatically.

I got around this by putting a readonly flag on the shortcut. Sure enough, restarting the PPC automatically loads Smartskey OK from now on.

Be interested to hear from anyone else with this issue.

Smartskey and Photo Contacts Pro 5.02

I've been using smartskey since I first began using windows mobile 5. I've only had Photo Contacts Pro 5.02 for about a week. My problem is that Photo Contacts Pro does not like to be closed, so I've tried to hide it by editing the smartskey.ini file by adding

APP08=Photo Contacts PRO

, since Photo Contacts PRO is the title displayed from within the program. The executable is PhotoContacts.exe. None of these methods work even after closing and restarting smartskey or soft resets. Am I doing something wrong, or am I confused about the application of the smartskey.ini file? Any help would be appreciated.

smarkey not activating after reboot

I have had smartskey on my 8125 for a year (installed on memory card), and I consider it essential. A few days ago, I kept getting error messages that smartskey could not be initiated. I thought it might be the location on the memory card and downloaded the latest version (0.56?) and installed it in main memory (together with Omapclock). I followed the instruction in the PDF, but now, when I reboot the device I get the following error message:

"The ile smartskey cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate, or one of its components cannot be found. You might need to reinstall or restore this file"

Since the installation only consists of 2 files and I put them in main memory in a subfolder of the program folder, I don't think that parts of the program are missing. Also, when I start it manually, it works. So why do I get this error message, and why do I have to start the program manually?

And, by the way, Omapclock has to be restarted manually also after a reboot., even if I start Smartskey manually.

Anybody who can help with this?

i had the same problem. i installed smartkeys on storage card and when the phone comes back from standby it said "the file smartkey cannot be opened" so i put smartkeys on main memory still the same problem. the only solution i had was to clear storage my phone and reinstall smsrtkeys on main memory. now it works perfect.

Do you mean "clear storage" in "Settings"? I clicked on that but it told me that I will lose all data and that everything will be restored to factory settings. Will I have to re-install all my applications and data?

yes. and yes u gonna lose everything. but that was the only cured. make sure u save ur contacts also.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] mikebode:
Thanks, but that is not what I'm looking for. There must be some place in the device where the location of the first installation is stored. I have in the meantime deleted smartskey from the storage card, then deleted it from main memory, then deleted the shortcut in the startup menu, and finally reinstalled the program. It still complains that it can't run the program on the storage card. Perhaps the author of the program could chime in here and tell us where this information is stored (in the registry? which key?) so that we can fix this without having to do a brain transplant on the device...?

change DPAD behavior on phone app?

is there a way to change the behavior of the DPAD or change the applications/windows it launches when a key is pressed?

because i am having trouble with the smartdial of WM6 with DPAD=1..

i use smart dial to search and narrow down my contact list, then, when i press down to select a contact, say, on the 3rd line from the list, the phone app or smartskey will automatically launch the call history window, making it imposible to navigate on the contacts..

same goes when pressing up.. it will launch the speed dial window..

is there a way to customize what each direction key would launch? say keep the up and down keys' function (to do up and down navigation) then remap the left and right with call history and speed dial instead?

or can the future version be made to automatically detect when smart dial is being used so that it can temporarily disable the DPAD launching function?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] superflysocal:
i have this installed on Titan and it works like a charm. When i type in a number during dialpad it activates smartdial like normal and i call scroll up and down in smartdial as well as left in right for contacts with multiple numbers. The dpad functions of smartkeys does not kick in during smartdial, which is perfectly the way i want it and what it seems you want also. I am not sure why it doesn't work for you. Did you try the latest version, I think this was fixed in a later version.

My request would be if we can chage what the left and right soft keys do would be great. On the titan there is already a dedicated windows key for smart menu, so the right press and hold function is a waste.
