@IKARUS,

that's the kind of behaviour I get when I dock my S200: speed goes to 273MHz, when it should get back to 195MHz, and only gets back to 195MHz when I enter and then leave the Options menu.

I faced a strange thing in the build 173. With IdleLoop set on, device spontaneously hangs up. It does not happen just immediatly, but it happen :( I ran into this when was working in PIM, in Pocket Outlook, in Resco File Explorer, once in TomTom. When it happen, device just stop reacting on taps, on key pressures on everything exept soft-reset pressure. I had to soft-reset my device up to four times per day. The problem went out after I had set IdleLoop off.

[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] igorp:
Same problem has the build 173 as well. Actually, "broadcast on" feature becomes vain because of this problem.
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] ikarus:
Yes, unfortunately this could happen. I guess it's because BatteryStatus is too fast checking for the class-name. Maybe there is a solution, but i'm not sure..

hm.. i will move this option out of Options-Tab and to a registry-value. It's not useable for most of users.

does this also happen if you disable "Application based oc" ?

Could you attach or send me a screenshot of your "Omap"-Tab and "Omap-App"-Tab?
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] SeanFromSoCal:
I'm trying to install BatteryStatusExt.1.04.beta2.CAB build 0173 to my WM6 upgraded device and I cannot seem to get it working. Its just the Extended version seems to be corrupt. Filesize is only 10344 bytes??

I can install the non-Extended version and its fine, showing up properly on the Today Screen. I just love the Extended with the clockspeed scaling and tray programs.

Great program btw. Thank you very very much.

b173 soft-resets & want back GPRS counters

1 claim and 1 request to ikarus:

1) After upgrading to b171 on Jamin, i've noticed the device often reboots instead of waking-up. Hangups arise also from time to time. Decreasing from 286 to 260 mhz didn't help and i've started to use again build 163. And it's OK again!

The settings are all indicators + 286mhz with wakeup setting + simple plugin version without scaling.

2) I would really appreciate the GPRS counters to be integrated again. I know some users claimed too much for it to be useless but i think it was accurate for many others and i really don't want to use SpB GPRS monitor which invades 1MB. The GPRS counter which disappeared was useful for me because it was calculating not only the amount of internet access from PDA but the amount loaded to a PC using GPRS of the PDA as a modem. Why not reintegrate that counter and let the user choose it during installation?

Thanks again for developing such effective and small tool. It became a most for everyone.

The extended version in WM6 works great!!

love the lock when screen is off!

superjob.. gone donate these days!
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] Andre Koster:
Where are the counters stored?

I have an ActiveSync problem. Hence, I want to put back a backup from the time it still worked. However, I don't want to loose the current values of the call- and SMS counters. Which made me wonder, where are these values stored?
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] mtvn:
Are you sure that you are using the extended version, i.e. BatteryStatusExt.1.04.beta2.CAB? So far, you are the only one that has claimed that. No one else has been able to use the extended version with WM6 because it didn't display the battery status correctly at all.

Does the feature "disable proxy for wifi" really work?

I connect wizard wifi to "work connection", set the "work connection" for both internet and work. My GPRS is TMOBILE $5.99 plan which requires proxy. I turned off the cell phone radio to just test the wifi. Using batterystatus (disabling proxy) and wifi, I can check pop3 email account. I can also using the PIE, but it is very slow, maybe 20 times slower than I connect wifi to internet connection without proxy. It looks like my wifi is still using the tmobile proxy to get internet pages.

How can I test if this feature works or not?

thanks

Hi! First of all thanks for this great little app :D

I have a request ... isnt possible to have a mode where you hide the today plugin, and just have the tray icons enabled to access the functions? (Like a minimize to tray in Windows :P)

Thanks

i used the extended version and the regular version in wm6 for hermes and it worked perfectly... (although you cant OC the hermes as of yet so maybe that is why it worked just fine for hermes)
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] ikarus:
status

Thanks for the feedback and sorry for this delay :D

i guess i can continue active developing from mid-april on.

i've closed the votes now and a solid majority voted for customization, so this request has been added onto the todo-list.

There are also several minor performance, efficiency improvements got onto the list and will be done at first.

e.g. a long list for app-based-oc has turned out to be problematic.

Imagine a list with 1024 characters and a search is done each time the active window changes.

System-Performance could suffer from.

--> I will switch to indexing/searching by suffix array and i guess this should improve online-searching a lot. So if you feel performance loss with a long list, then one of the next versions could solve the problem..

.. and some other pe-improvements..

download again. it must be 70-80kB.

yes build 171 had some bugs :o

this is difficult. code has been removed, but i will think about.

great :D

HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\shell\cumulativecalltimers\line_0

One of the next versions will have an export/import-settings function...

yes it works for me, because my provider proxy is allowed to use only from provider network (gprs), that is a wlan-connection will not work in case the proxy is enabled...

Do you have news on this?

yes read the manual and uncheck "Show Plugin"

great ;)

unfortunatelly there is no crossbow-sdk respectively device-emulator yet, so i can't check it..

[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] cellneuron:
first of all, batterstatus latest build (both version) work well under wm6. although the earlier built has a lot of problem.

if you want to hide batterystatus most of time but may want to take a glance occationally, you can insert batterystatus into spb mobile shell.

ikarus, can you tell me your network setting for the proxy disabling feature? maybe i did something wrong.

internet connections:

work connections:

wifi 802.11g card connect to?

wifi network connect to internet or work?

I would suggest one improvement to "DispalyOff" function.

Typically, I use this function when recording GPS tracks. It is the only tool for switching dispay completely off on HTC P3300, because standard system control "Brightness", even being set to minimal value, actually does not switch display off, leaving some backlight on.

Unfortunatly, "DisplayOff" function has a drawback for such kind of use-cases: the function does not switch display off again if display happened to be switched on by any system event (e.g. by notification from PIM, or incoming call, etc.). It would be very nice if, being activated, the function would automatically switched display off again in the case if display happened to be waked up by system event and no user activity has been detected during predifined time since that event occured.

Hey Ikarus, hope you're keeping well, lovin you work on this app!

Just wondering if you going to continute development on the screen saver? Is this avaialable to download still, i re-flashed my device and forgot to backup the file :(
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] ikarus:
thanks for feedback !!!

and i know there are a lot of emails in queue... don't worry, i will answer as soon as i have some minutes for :D

i have o2-WAP set up with o2-proxy (for internet).

In addition to that there are wifi-connections set up for university-ap and some hotspots (for internet).

that's it...

i will think about, but DisplayOff is designed for interactive-use and not for automation.. so it would break design..

great hehe..

do you have a clue of the cause?

i'm fine, thanks a lot... a bit busy, but that's life...

BSScreenSaver is still up in one of the messages :D but hard to find hehe

i've uploaded again to third message of this thread.

There are plans for BSScreenSaver but ToDo-List is getting long hehe

I have designed a new concept and/or architecture for painting in BatteryStatus, which makes painting very effective while items can be placed very diverse.

If i have some time this weekend, i will implement a proof of concept and you can play with the next weeks ;)

btw. the new painting-concept with its components will be implemented for both versions but customization will be implemented only for extended version, because it would increase the size of normal version too much, so if you want to try customization, then use the next extended version.

Best regards,

ikarus
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] Nostramo:
Hey, Ikarus

Take a look at this!! ;)

I've done a few experiences with your new painting method and that's the result.

Although I have to work a little bit more on the icons, I think it looks really good.

The first custom theme for Battery Status was born: BS Vista Theme !!

There is only one problem: battery icon doesn't change to acpower icon when the device is connected to AC power. I don't know why. Perhaps you could try about.

Great, great job, Ikarus. I'll continue working on that.

Regards.

Nostramo
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] WilbertW:
Wow,

This really looks great, I'm going to test this release asap!

Well done Ikarus for the App and Nostramo for the custom theme!

Is it perhaps an idea to exchange custom themes in this forum or on your site?

Ikarus: regardig release 173.

Recently I have experienced some hangs on my device (wizard). I don't know if they are BS related, but the reason I'm telling is that every time I switch between using Idleloop and not, my device hangs and I have to soft reset it twice.

Gtx,

Updated to the test build as I was having issues with the task bar icons slowly moving left across the screen.

I noticed the new "Rows" option in the drop down menu, so I unticked them all. Now there's nothing on the Today page and I can't find an option in the main options program to get them back.
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] ikarus:
Hello Nostramo,

you did a great job ;)

Looks very graceful !!

yes it's true.. haven't tested it yet. try build 0175

very good idea, share your themes :)

If you want to build a custom-theme, then just a hint.

1. Create a new directory e.g. "Windows\BatteryStatus\My Theme" and set the attribute imagesrc="My Theme"

2. Then place the new bitmaps into this directory.

This way the theme could be possibly saved with the "Save/Import configuration"-Function. It's currently not doing this, but it makes easier to do so..

You can also set your own mobile-operator-logo by using the class="mobile_operator" with type="iconvalue" and providing your operator-logo within the image-tag...

yes, i've moved the idleloop into registry (by creating "UseIdleLoop" = 1).

The IdleLoop sometimes makes problems and should only be used if there are sound drops with a2dp..

oh, hehe,

I will add some code to prevent this action..

delete the registry-value "RowView0", "RowView1", etc.. under BatteryStatus-Registrykey HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Today\Items\BatteryStatus

They keep the visibility-state of bs-window. This should bring the default setting-back.

Yes. I supposed that, but this has been only an incomplete try. I need some time to perform it a little more.

It's because the batterydriver of your rom returns BATTERY_FLAG_UNKNOWN == 0xFF == -1

Are other apps returning a correct value?

Hello,

does anyone think it is possible to put all important Facts in only two rows? All items which are on Nostramos theme should be on two rows except Day and Month values only SMS count would be important.

I am thinking about a very tiny style.

Unfortunatly I am not trained in XML so maybe anyone likes to help.
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] Nostramo:
Well, I think it's possible. You could put the sms count at the end of the 4th row and delete 2nd row. So...all items would be on two rows (besides the 1st row, of course). But I don't know if sms count can be shown separately from Day and Month. Ask Ikarus for.
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] ikarus:
great :)

of course, upload the theme. i can also put it into one of the first messages.

hm.. sms are counted monthly.

You can place it by "sms_out", "sms_in" and "sms_inout".

A daily counter isn't implemented. Is there a need for?

well.. xml isn't hard to understand. It's worth a try :D

[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] Black-Rose:
I like it! Does it also works on devices without a Vista Theme? Probably yes, for sure I'm asking.

My device has been gone now for still 3 weeks. The device is 4 months old, but Qtek gives no guarantee because of oxidation on the mainboard. They ask a very high tariff for reparation. Now I asked my device back without repairing, there is here a small company that repaires too for a fifth of the tariff of the official repaircentre. F*CK my guarantee! --> Sorry, I'm mad!:mad:

I'm looking forward to install the newest version of BatteryStatus!
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] Nostramo:
I'm going to do it asap :)

Of course, it does. "BSVistaTheme" is only how I called it, because icons are Vista-style, but BS is a completely independent plugin.

Regards.

Nostramo

P.S.: Btw, Ikarus: We should actualize BSLanguage Project. Should'nt we?
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] ikarus:
oh i hope you will get your repaired device back soon ;)

Thanx!

Indeed, I forgot the dentist appointment last week.:rolleyes:

Now I'm interested in WM Smartphones too and looking/reading in forums. There are difference not a lot, but many people in forums call PPCphones smartphones too.

My girlfriend want to order the HTC S310 (Oxygen) to replace her current cellphone. She want to used it beside her PDA (still al contacts, appointments etc. in your pocket ánd synchronized).
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] ikarus:
ups hehe :D

i don't have experience with a windows-smartphone, but i think it can do more than just a cellphone hehe

i could provide a setup.dll which reloads the plugin with the new theme, but you need to know how to build a cab (with cabwiz.exe) for.

ikarus
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] Black-Rose:
:confused: Uhm....,

What is the difference between download 'BatteryStatusExt.1.04.beta2.CAB' and download 'BatteryStatusExt.1.04_testing.CAB'?
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] Nostramo:
No problem. Send me the .dll and I'll make the cab. Nevertheless, if you could send me a sample of your .inf file, the process would be faster.

The only one problem is the Mobile Operator. Each people should prepare his own operator logo, because mine is Movistar from Spain. So, I'll don't joint an operator logo to the theme. Other thing is that the espace for logo and operator name is a little bit small, then it's possible that other user decides to positioning Mobile Operator in another row.

This will be explained in the code of the xml file (and perhaps in a readme file too) as well as I could.

Any suggestion?

Regards.

Nostramo
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] ikarus:
beta2 is the recent working beta.

testing is a quick implementation (with customization/new paint method - theme) to play with. I guess testing will be beta3 in some weeks...

here you go :) attached it.

append it by CESETUPDLL="setupdll.dll"

It deactivates BS before installation of the desired cab and activates BS after installation. Just overwrite the registry-value "ThemeFile" under BatteryStatus-key in installation... i guess it's trivial :rolleyes:

true. don't know how to handle this, but try your solution. The best at the moment.

I will let you know if a suggestion come to me..

STOPP

after a softreset it is working perfect again

Thanks
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] format:
Hi!

I'm using build 176. I was using an old version so you can imagine the joy of discovering the great work you've been doing. Veryyy neat!

Ok, back to problems:

- On my wizard I also have the problem of having to enter options after starting to charge for it to change to 195MHz.

I also have a strange problem and I read dozens of pages and couldn't found no complaints. Hope I'm not alone...

I have 3 rows visible. 4th row has almost the same info than 3rd...

But if I switch wifi on (or off and back on) 4th row appears (with the refered same info) PLUS 3 empty rows. Arrgg!! That screws my today screen forcing everything down.

If I do the "enter and leave Options screen" trick the forth row vanishes...

And comes back to normal.

It's anoying.

This behavior exists even if I only have 2 rows selected. The context menu is consistent with the rows displayed. But how come number of rows displayed (and selected in the menu) change just by entering and leaving options??!?!?

THere is defenetly something wrong there. Hope my report helps you debugging it. Strange nobody complaint about a so visible problem. Maybe some interaction with another plugin I have? I tryed different load orders between some of them but the problem remains.

Regards

[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] format:
Ok, I found a way to solve the "195MHz default to charge". I don't know if it's the way it supposed to work.

I have to set up the default speed of the CPU (195) and not the 260 that I had.

I use cpuscaler and setting the default speed works great. What is happening is, when the wizard starts to charge BS changes to the speed I manually set. So if I set it to 195 it locks there when charging. That is the reason it was locking on 260 when charging.

Maybe this is the intended behavior and I didn't notice.

The 4 rows + 3 empty rows when I turn on WiFi remains.

i've attached your theme to the third message of this thread!

you're welcome :D

Could you export your settings by means of Tools-Tab (there is a "Save Configuration"-Function) and send me the file?

Contact me by pm and i'll send you my email.

It's probably due to the WiFi-Row, which isn't stable yet. It's just a quick implementation and i will get back to dev if i have some time for..

As a temporary solution you could remove the Rows with "wifi_state" and "wifi_networks" in the theme-file.

You can also delete the theme-file (\Windows\BatteryStatus\default.xml).

BatteryStatus then uses an inbuild-default without the wifi-stuff.

Hi,

with my minimalistic theme I have some issues. After giving the custom.xls at the options menu every thing is displayed fine. But when I wrote a SMS the SMS counter doesn't count +1. It shows the old value (SMS 8) plus an additional SMS.

It looks like

SMS 8SMS

What is the problem? Do I have an error in my XML file?

News, when I go into options again and give it the same XML file it displayes the SMS value proper. (SMS 9)

[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] Nostramo:
Hi, Ikarus

I've recently upgrade my device to WM6.

BS works fine and correctly (Build 0177), except the TrayLaunch option.

When you add an application to TrayLaunch it's added correctly. If you close options and entry again to TrayLaunch, could see this:

The application link has been cutted in five strange links (and, naturally, the application doesn't launch).

If you close the options and entry again to TrayLaunch (2nd. time), you could see this:

The five strange links had been reduced to two (no less strange :p )

And finally, if you close the options and entry again (3rd. time), the application link has desappeared totally.

Curious, but that is.
