Bugs

ikarus, found some bugs to report (present in 266 and prior versions, too).

Clock's AM/PM indicator doesn't switch at 12:00. Reloading theme doesn't correct it. After several hours, it eventually changes to the correct indicator.

Clock digits don't update if they're above or below the "normal" clock line. E.g., the second row of my horizontal binary clock theme wouldn't update. I guess you probably calculate based on the size and position of the first digit? I know the digits are all supposed to be the same size, but that doesn't work if the top attribute is different. (BTW, I made a temporary fix by padding my digits to be double height.)

Hello,

this program was working very well in my old Wizard.

However I am now using a Asus P527 (Which is also using OMAP850), the CPU usage meter always show as 100% (Actually not 100% when viewing in TaskManager), so the clock never goes down when I use CPUScalar. Moreover, the temperature and power drain meter always show wrong values.

i seem to have issues sending out vcards as text msgs.

after the contact is being sent via sms, the device freezes.

removal of bs kinda solves the problem but im not sure what is really causing the problem.
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] jimflp:
An update to my last post. I've cleared out most of my apps and de-installed, soft reset a plenty and re-installed with varying degrees of success.

Regrettably I've had to de-install BS. The counters are still not updating,I'm getting graphics overwriting on the today screen and when I do try to send an SMS the phone grinds to a halt.

Fingers crossed I can find a solution as this is still one of the best tools I've found and it had been working flawlessly for a good while!

Web Space

i've recalculated a bit and it's sad but i can't afford my online-page anymore. I've to quit the vserver and the expensive info-domain in order to ensure that there will be no surprises with my plans.

So i'm looking for a free webhoster (country doesn't matter) to host my pages and the projects e.g. BatteryStatus.

I would be glad about suggestions and tips/hint for free webhosting, where i can move the content :)

hello BennTech,

many thanks for your creative work :) really looking great hehe

I will check the issues asap.

the other issues may be answered already in this thread, but i'm not sure.
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] lastnikita:
Which web-services do you need Ikarus ?
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] nastassja:
my counters are not operating correctly, they always show the same:

Calltimes Month 00:32.51, SMS 1

can it be language related? my rom is in spanish.

tested pre11 and pre12.
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] ikarus:
hm.. calltimes is not language related. SMS could be language related.

lets try resolving this.

Do you use a prophet?

Do you use the free-callnumbers and if you use it, how many are there listed?

You could pm me the numbers if you dont want to make them public. Maybe a free-callnumber makes the counter reset for each call.

To SMS: if you open the sms-application. What's the title of the application window -> the text at top of the screen.
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] NewSPV:
Hi ikarus

I am still having this problem with the calltimes as I told you earlier. I have set dates and times back and forth on the sytem to match settings for your toolbar, but the counters do not reset and the day times and month times remain the same.
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] Ghaled:
Sorry, the problem is still there.

I've notice that when this happens, usually activesync and comm manager are running (and comm manager refuses to close).

I'll continue to observe...
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] dma147:
Yeah... that would be a really cool and useful feature.

Maybe as others already said, with automatic switching on/off by daytime.
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] ikarus:
First of all i should describe how this function work.

0. If you check the option "Automatic reset times":

1. You can set an hour for reset the daily-counter.

2. You can set a day for reset the monthly-counter.

3. [changed since pre9] The function remember the last day of reset, that is it does reset the counter only once a day at the specified time. Even if you set the clock back, it does not reset the counter. This prevents some bad situations and fits the regular use of such a function. You have to wait for the next day for the daily counter to reset.

If you still have this problem, then it's also of my interest to look for the reason.

Only to be sure of you know the details. The plugin does delay the overclocking up to 1200ms after the wakeup. This is because the device will freeze if we don't wait for the operating system (drivers) to completely wakeup first.

So if your device wakeup, then wait up to 1200ms and if it is not overclocked, then we need to do some investigation.

btw. you can terminate the commmanager by longtap (tap and hold) on the operator-name-text (on BatteryStatus).

I know the manual needs updating but currently there is less time for it...

b. regards,

ikarus
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] niall0s:
I am also having these problems, i followed your instructions and it is definately not working correctly for me, the times do not reset and both monthly and daily values are the same all the time

I am using a Wizard (Qtek 9100)
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] ikarus:
oh i see, actually since pre9, point 3 is handled less strict, so it should reset more than once a day if you deactivate and reactivate the plugin afterwards.

okay then i will try reproducing this.

You can help me by starting a registry editor and either pm or post the following values:

HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Today\Items\BatteryStatus\Flags

HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Today\Items\BatteryStatus\CallTimesResets

Furthermore please describe the steps how you came to this behaviour. You can send me a pm if you don't want this to be public.

b. regards,

ikarus
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] TOD:
Hi ikarus,

My counters doesn't change yesterday. I do a soft reset today and they have changed. Monthly counter is good now but today counter show me yesterday call... 8)
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] Matterhorn:
Maybe you could add an option to just reset the month counter by clicking a button. For instance on my Prophet, the CallTime Month value is set at the total minutes of my device talk time since I bought it. I have set the auto reset ON. I thought I'd just wait until the end of the month and see if it resets by itself to a 0 value...but maybe something else is going on?
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] nastassja:
Yes, I am using the prophet. I dont call to free numbers, and i didnt add any number to your application. Today after a call it changed and updated correctly to:

Calltimes Month 00:33.45, SMS 1

But Month and Today show the same.. and it shouldnt. Also the SMS counter is not working as it should, i sent some SMS and it still shows 1.

In the top of the messaging application you can read: Mensajes de texto

EDIT

just to give more info, after a soft reset the timer updated again (same for month and day).

No problem onto my prophet

Dear ikarus,

i installed and tested hardly pre-12 onto my prophet.

My compliments. great Job!!!

[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] nikkho:
It would be very useful if you are able to add a new option in Battery Status, that really turns off the device.

Currently we have the Reset command, and the shutdown one, but I feel as to be very useful, having the possibility to trully turn it off (no phone, no RAM refreshing, ...), just to be sure that the battery consumption is reduced to zero in that situation.
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] ikarus:
very good.

the calltimes-reset method works with a formula to calculating values by Flags and CallTimesReset (Registry).

I verified this and it works for me, so if you encounter problems, that's very good to me :) (of course actually not good for you)

This is why i make pre-releaeses.

So if you have problems with call-times-reset, please give me these registry-values.

i will try reproducing it, after work later...

b. regards,

ikarus
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] nastassja:
My values are as follows:

Flags = 52470240

CallTimesReset = 256

After checking the phone again, I saw that finally (after some hours) the SMS count was updated to 2, and Calltimes to 00:38.18.

So when is the information updated? Everytime I check the properties of the plugin and press ok? Everytime I softreset? Also the problem that Month = Today is still there.

Maybe you could include a Refreshrate option (as you do for the battery-drain).

Thanks for your support and work :)
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] Ghaled:
Nothing to do.

Issue is there also if commmanager does not start.

Sometimes, when exit from sleepmode, batterystatus show 52mhz, then 195 and then 260. Sometimes it shows only 195.

Tried to uninstall and reinstall. Nothing.

May be a conflict with other software?

I use LVM second clock, SPB pocket plus, SPB diary and SPB weather

:(
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] ikarus:
Hello nastassja,

please go to options and verify you have checked "Automatic reset times" at the "CallTimes"-Tab. Your Flags tell me that it is not checked ;)

Maybe a softreset lead to this.

A reset is done when there is a need for. Each time you use your device, then BatteryStatus will check if a reset is needed.

All actions are causally dependent like real life... (or Matrix: Anything is causally...) This is one of the design-principle, but no principle without exceptions... see batterydrain ;)

oh that's bad... sms count does only work on english or german devices. I will try to find a solution.

b. regards,

ikarus
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] ikarus:
I simulated your settings, but it doesn't seem to be the formula.

Do you use other kind of apps to show/count or work with calltimes?

You can make an experiment. Use a registry-editor and look at HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\shell\cumulativecalltimers\line_0\OutgoingVoiceCurrent

- write down this value

- make an outgoing voice call

- look at the value again

--> is there a difference?
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] ikarus:
hm... you are using really ressource-hungry software man :)

This is not because of the apps you've listed. It's the fact you cann see 52MHz. Most of the system can (at least) speed up to 195MHz until you see anything, but your system seems to be blocked long time at wakeup (don't know by what..)

BatteryStatus does not overclock if the system hasn't done his job. There is a retry-counter and timeout and so on build in and your device seems to exceed all of them.

But don't worry, we will try to finetune BatteryStatus also for this kind of use.

Wait for the next pre. Maybe a debug-trace could help, but i will send you a pm if there is a need for.

kind regards,

ikarus

adjusting Backlight Brightness in TrayAp

I've searched and read, but can't get it to work:

Example: the HTC Home Plugin has a Backlight Brightness tab where each tap changes the brightness by 1/4. I uninstalled the HTChomeplug, but would like to write the funtion into the TrayAp.

In the BatteryStatus TrayLaunch tab, I added the path:

\Windows\Backlight.exe

but it only brings me to the backlight adjust screen, where I'd have to adjust the backlight manually.

Tried creating a LNK shortcut with the text:

33#ctlpnl.exe cplmain.cpl,6

but it also only brings me to the same backlight adjust screen.

What arguments do I add, or what shortcut text do I need to be able to duplicate the Backlight Adjust function of the HTChomeplug?

ps: i have a Wing/Herald
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] ikarus:
i've received some tips and offers.. so many thanks for that :)

Still looking for tips and suggestions!!

What i prefer is a good lasting solution (at least for half a year). The best would be some webspace where i can host php-pages. A Database is not required, but access to the rewrite-module of apache would be great.

That's an ideal solution, but i can make the content as static html-pages for hosting on a free provider as well.

The domain is paid for some months and will be quit after then, but the vserver produces monthly costs, so i want to move the content at first.

I've thought about something like myspace or one of the other free blog-providers, but still about to sort out the best solution.

I would accept a subdomain or subdirectory for hosting the content too, e.g. http://free-provider-domain/ikarus-content

btw. the traffic isn't that much like this forum, but considerable...

As a temporary solution, i will make the content available over my private web-server connected to a dsl-dialin-connection.

I will upload the clock-cab to first post asap. (this weekend.. sorry can't access now)

A fellow user in the themes-thread has mentioned to enable such a functionality, but don't know for sure.

What does it mean? A product now paid? If yes, from what version?
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] BennTech:
Microsoft did not provide a standard programming interface for changing the backlight. This means every PDA has a custom backlight interface based however the PDA manufacturer (HTC) chose to develop it. As a result, application backlight toggling is fubar.

There have been attempts to program it based on backlight registry settings, but, again, they are custom per PDA and don't always work. MortScript uses this method and its docs have an example backlight script. You can see if it works on your PDA (doesn't work on Kaiser/Tilt/TyTN II). Likewise, Spb Pocket Plus includes a shortcut to toggle the backlight brightness that you could launch. Spb seems to work on all PDAs, but it's $30 USD.

[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] arielex:
Marendo is right. I had the same issue since today, and installing the new version (from the start post) does the trick. No nag screen since... :)

So, stop nagging about that nag screen, and install the new version... ;)
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] ikarus:
it's just simple. Install the latest build. Isn't that something obvious???

Any beta-software has a defined period for testing. This is without saying.

If the nag-screen comes up, then you're using a very very old build and the beta-phase for that version has ended.

Actually there was a bug in the nag-screen-code, because it should come up once a day or two. It was still set to testing-flag where the screen comes up much more often hehe

--> Changed with build 0267.

The funny thing is even if the solution is in front of a reader, e.g. post of marendo, users can't read it :rolleyes:

btw. the nag-screen has been discussed in a lot of posts in this thread and i don't want to write the reasons again and again and again..

Please use the search-function and read...

I'm sure this post will be read only once by a bunch of some less people and the question is coming up again and again and blowing up the thread with senseless repeatings of this question..

Even adding it to the first post doesn't make sense --> it seems really less people are reading it, e.g. bug-reports without export of registry-settings by options, name of theme and so on.. --> how can we know about your settings?

it simply doesn't make sense..

I don't have enough time for the project the last time and next weeks, because i have to study and work to get some money. I'm spending my spare time for this project which isn't that much now.

I would implement a registration-system and sell it by myself, but so many restrictions in germany..

to make it short. --> Update to the latest build if you want to take part of beta-programm, otherwise unistall and forget about it.

just saw it.. arielex is right too hehe

ok i'm a bit angry.. sorry for that.. it was a hard day and i still have a lot to do.. tomorrow is a new day..

no need to hard reset

i couldnt unistal either but here is the solution

If you are using the very old version 0.02.403, then you must deactivate/uncheck the plugin at first by Start/Settings/Today/BatteryStatus.

If you failed to uninstall, then you can manually remove it by means of an registry-editor and totalcommander:

* Start the registry-editor and navigate to

HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Today\Items\BatteryStatus

* Delete the Subkey ""BatteryStatus"

* Start ghislers totalcommander and navigate to the "\windows" directory

* Delete BattTDP.dll
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] NYLimited:
ikarus:

Everybody has hard days and sometimes we do not read enough. You are correct.

One of the problems is that the software can be found in many places - I obviously downloaded and installed and older version without realizing it. This has now been corrected. Had the pop-up told me it was an old beta I would have never posted a question.

From what I have read here with limited time there many knowledgeable and helpful folks posting. That is always a good reflection.

I have done a bit of beta and alpha testing in my time. Both sides get frustrated sometimes. If you wish to know I can give you my personal info - simply PM me - and you can look me up on google.

Anyway, I will keep stop typing as I know you have lots to do. Relax and keep up the good work.
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] NYLimited:
CPU Scaling and other thoughts

ikarus:

This is a 3 part message, only the first one is long...

_1_

I may have found an anomaly or perhaps I am misinterpreting the intent. Here's what I have:

Using a T-Mobile branded "Wing" with Windows Mobile Pro 6.

Under OMAP tab (probably not important):

Original speed 201

Overclock to speed 247

Overclock on wakeup - checked

Remember CPU speed - NOT checked

Overclock after reboot - checked

CPUScaler tab:

Enable - checked

Min: 143 Org: 201 Max 247

OMAP APPS tab:

Desktop 169 mhz

Camera 201 Mhz

Phone 201 Mhz

Gmail 234 Mhz

What I was trying to do is allow scaling based on utilization when no omap app is specified. For camera I was trying to force the original speed. My understanding is that when a specified app is in the foreground the "omap apps" speed is set.

I wanted to clock down to 169 mhz and not change the speed when the desktop was on the screen regardless of what app may be running in the background.

I found this to work sometimes and not work at other times. It is not random, however. Here's what is happening - you can duplicate this at will:

If I load either the "gmail", "phone" or "camera" app (see above) the speed will be correctly set to 169 when I exit the app and return to the desktop. It will stay at 169 until something else is done.

If I run any app that is not listed under omap apps, scaling is invoked based on cpu usage, as expected. However, when that app is exited and I return to the desktop scaling remains in force and the 169 speed will be ignored. Although the speed will now be set down to 143 with no activity, any background app (such as checking mail) will push the clock up to 247.

Does any of this make sense to you? :)

_2_

Seems whenever the device is plugged in (USB or wall charger or car charger) the CPU speed is jumped to max (247) and is locked there till the device is unlugged. Is this normal?

_3_

I realize this is a "batterystatus" program but is there a way to turn off the battery status display line on the today screen completely to save space? There are times when I would be happy with having only the cpu speed on top of the screen. :)

Thanks for reading! Hope I explained things clearly.
