thanks i will enjoy it :D

thanks for reporting. It's fixed with build 0229.

you can copy the CallTimes.xml from Backup-directory back or solve this by editing the xml.

</ <Call Type="msg"

must be:

<Call Type="msg"

hm.. the traffic is counted internally. Maybe it has something to do with customization. Could you attach your xml?

hm.. your settings are ok. Have you modified your xml for customization?

hm.. i can't reproduce such.

You know the batterydrain isn't linear... from 100% to 95% the loss is much faster than from 95%..93% and 93%.. and so on.

There are tools for measuring such graphs.. and once you've seen such a graph you know.. it's not linear at all :D

You can read the faq too.. It took me a lot of time to write the manual, faq and so on. There you can read: BS isn't doing anything when device is in standby.

Hi ikarus

No, it does not depend on a theme. I use old. On default too most. Compare 2 BSCallTimes.xml - in the end of the worker there should be still sessions GPRS, and they are not present. If it will help, has noticed, that from the list of connections " My connection " (translation from russian) has disappeared. I did not create it. Probably it was created with old versions BS. And now it is not present. (couple of days I shall be absent, excuse)
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] Ironfistpum:
Hi Ikarus;

Nope, i did default install, changed no theme, no xml or whatever... just clicking through menu and add for function...

Hmm... i will go on trying. During weekend i will see if its just the panic now that i can see directly how quickly my battery drains or if its really quicker now.

Actally i read the FAQ. ;) Thats why i asked here if there are known issues with different ROM versions or devices.

@Ikarus:

Is it possible for you to add Proxy Disable when Wifi Enables or Connected to Computer to Standard Version. I mean many of also use standard version and i believe it would be a biggest plus if you add that feature in simple :d i'd really appreciate it.
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] RedUser:
Hi ikarus

At last has reached a home and I can write all questions which at me have collected.

1. Certainly to understand why the traffic has ceased to be taken into account. If my message about connection is not clear, I can make screenshot.

2. At the account of time of calls if it is established, for example, reset of counters in 31 day it is necessary to take into account this day. I.e. to reset at the END of day, but reset in the beginning of day now turns out. It turns out for 30 days.

3. In taskmanager if the name of the program too big (for example long line URL in IE) to close it by [x] on the right is impossible.

4. In taskmanager STK-service it is not removed from the list. Earlier also was with the phone, but it seems it is now corrected.

5. For the indicator on topbar the parameters for coordinates do not operate at change of an arrangement of the screen. Only at the first moment. It is necessary to restart it anew that operated.

6. Whether it is possible to make item in the menu for remove plugin from the screen not only at an icon in a tray, but also in the menu at the indicator on topbar? Then it will be possible to remove plugin not having icons.

There may be later still something shall recollect.
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] LordDeath:
about the taskmanager: now i use it and it works better than htc x-button and pbar 1.4 :)

but i have two problems:

the first is only a minor problem: in the task list the icon of the "tasks" application is not shown. somehow this is a real problem for taskmanagers. x-button had the biggest problems, pbar worked better and batterystatus shows nearlly all of them. the only taskmanager, which shows every icon on my ppc is the alt-tab.exe from spb pocketplus.

so please ikarus, can you fix the "tasks"-application's icon?

the other problem is that the task list is closed when i kill an app with it. i would prefer that it stays on top until i tap somewhere else.

btw: this one is the only taskmanager which shows me the commanager as an task. so i can close it to free some ram :)

Can someone clarify? what's the difference 1.04.203 build 216 and 0.04.203 build 222?
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] ikarus:
Thanks for reporting the bugs :D btw. good finds hehe

hm.. 0.04. version is feature-fixed. Any more features will increase the size too much.

Hello RedUser,

i've sent you a pm for datacounter ;)

i will check this, but testing of reset-algorithm takes a lot of time.

i've updated build 0231 for this.

hm.. could you give some steps to reproduce?

you can minimize bs right now by TaskBar-Reading (in Rows-Submenu).

I'm not sure of making this accessible in TaskManager..

Is it what you've asked for?

great hehe

it's just a simple addon providing the most common needs.

fixed in build 0231

hm.. i must think about that. I guess bs follows the wm-design-guide with the current behaviour.

Your request conforms to an app-window but not to a context-menu..

i will have some thoughts about..

Regards,

ikarus
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] RedUser:
Thank. But now at me the question has appeared. Is simple quantity of days or about calendar days in algorithm is used? I thought, that about calendar days. I.e. 31 day of month, instead of 31 day under the order.

Probably I am not right. But then it is necessary to precisely "catch" the beginning of month to take into account time for one month... Not so conveniently.

For example, if there is parameter TaskBarRight to align the indicator to the right. First all is normal but if to replace the screen from a portrait to a landscape, the indicator will not be aligned again to the right. It is necessary to switch off it and again to on for this purpose.

I am sorry. I did not know, that there there is this item. It is too hidden. May be move it above?

Btw, it is necessary to watch whether there are icons below or the indicator above thus. Otherwise it is possible to remove plugin from the screen and never more it to find. ;)

I've a Touch with the standard plugin installed but, on the first row, the cpuspeed isn't displayed in right mode (without the initial characters)!!!

P.s. Sorry if I didn't eventually find the solution by myself, but the post really is too long to read

Bye
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] Madana:
Ikarus,

First of all thank you for the useful utility. I am using HTC Touch and have found your BS to boost its sluggish performance to a quite satifactory speed.

I have installed the latest BS 1.04.203 beta4 build 0231. It seems to be working ok. I have CpuScaler set to 108 min and 260 max + boost at 299. I figured it would not be a problem for the processor to fire at 299MHz once in a while.

However -- here comes my question. When on external power, the processor stays permanently at the boosted speed, 299 Mhz, and would not come down. This makes me apprehensive about keeping it plugged for a long time.

I am not sure if this was intended to be like this or is just a bug. But regardless, I think it would be much safer and practical to keep dynamic CPU scaling even on external power.

Do you think you could fix this or at least make it an option in future releases of your otherwise great utility?

Regards,

Madana

I've problems with the 'DeviceLock'-option in the newst version: Everytime the Orbit goes to standby by auto off (1min), reactivating the orbit shows a black screen (backlight is on, but black screen) and nothing works - crash! Activating standby by click on the on/off button works perfect. But auto off crashes, only soft reset rectifies the situation.

Its WM6 on XDA Orbit. Any help?
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] tj924:
Current using v1.04.203 Build 0227.

I have the data counters enabled & working fine. When does the Monthly count reset back to 0? Any way to specify when it should reset? In the Call Counters there is a "Reset Counter On" option, which I have set to Hour: 0, Day:1 (ie reset counters to 0 at midnight on the 1st of each month), however the monthly data counter didn't reset to 0 on 1/9. Is there any way to manually reset the data counters to 0?

What I'd like to see ideally is an option to reset the data counters on a particular day of the month (billing often starts & ends mid month depending on when the account was opened) &, just prior to reset, log the monthly total with the date into a text file. That would allow me to compare my actual data usage with what the carrier bills me (which I believe is not accurate) & to have a history of my usage.

EDIT

Updated to Build 0232 & the "Reset Counter Now" button did reset the data counters as well. I'll set the "Reset Counter on" option to Hour 0 Day 4 & see if the data counters are reset at midnight.

On my HTC Prophet, it goes to 195MHz when on external power. Is the parameter "Original CpuSpeed" in the Omap tab set to 195?

Just my 2 cents (if it helps), pls ignore if it doesn't!
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] ebvdijk:
I just installed build 0232 and I noticed that when WiFi is active and you tap on the available networks (row 6), it shows nothing where there used to be info about your current connection, like IP-adres etc.

I haven't used this option for a while so I don't know in wich build it went wrong. Anyone else having the same issue?

Close Programs by: Tap on [X] causes soft reset

ikarus,

I've been using your fantastic BatteryStatus application along with Meschles fantastic ROM for the HTC Artemis (O2 Orbit) and noticed a glitch (which you probably already know about but just incase you havent).

I've been running the latest build (v1.04.203 beta 4 build 0229) and noticed this issue:

1) this version of BatteryStatus includes a X-Button feature (see the Tools tab & "Close Programs by: Tap on [X]")

2) if you switch OFF the HTC X-Button application (included in Meschles Artemis ROM under Settings) and switch ON the BatteryStatus feature then:

2a) navigate to Programs (notice the screen shows an X button top right in order to exit the Programs screen)

2b) now navigate into the Accessories sub-folder within the Programs screen (now notice that the X button has changed to an OK button)

2c) click the OK button and your Orbit will soft-reset

3) if you switch off the BatteryStatus x button feature and use the HTC X-Button feature then everything is fine.

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

glad to see BS has integrated Task Manager in the latest version.

wondering if Battery status can show on the top of screen(draw a line or...)?

the reason is sometimes i have to minimize BS, and no idea how long battery life i have.

thanks.
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] Madana:
Thank you, netxturnpls. You are right -- it stays at 201 when plugged in to the power adapter, but it stays at the max when plugged in to the USB and not synchronizing.

Sorry for the ambiguity.

However, this is still a matter of concern for me as I often charge the Touch through the USB and do not want it to stay overclocked all the way up for hours.

So maybe it is possible to tweak BS to let it stay at 201 even when plugged?

Regards,

Madana

Hi Ikarus, would you please have a look at this ?

It's a contact manager with sms management, and BS doesn't count the sms that app is sending (and maybe others ?). Not sure if it shall be resolved in BS or in PocketCM...

ps: the PCM keyboard is very nice too ;)
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] pyrates:
Hi!

Yes this is my post. I would appreciate if you could take look at this.
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] Madana:
Actually, it is not that simple.

When I plug the Touch into external power, BS surges to 286 and stays. When I put it into standby and resume, it snaps back to 201 and sometimes starts scaling down and sometimes does not.

The same thing happens with USB. However, when connected to ActiveSync it stays at 286 all the time, even if after standby and resume.

Any ideas how to solve that? Is it a bug in BS than needs to be fixed?

Strange, for a few days wifi-toggle did not work. But today it shows the IP info again.
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] ikarus:
hm.. i'm sorry, i've no chance to find a solution. On my prophet all is well.

You could try the DeviceLock of armstrom from Developer-thread.

there is a manual.. it doesn't make sense to explain it here. it's described in detail in the manual...

All you've asked for you can have right now and it's explained in the manual...

thanks a lot for reporting :)

it's fixed with build 0229.

yes, it's compiled into BS by accident, so i've decided to include this feature for the current beta hehe

hello mewwoo,

hm... i will think about..

Hello niko,

i've mentioned in the manual about something like that. When i developed the sms-counter there were a lot of users with such a problem, e.g. greeks often use a custom app as well as chinese people are using custom apps and so on...

I've made a decision conform to my design-principles.

BS does not check for sent sms every seconds and wasting system-resources, but support the default messaging-app of windows.

If you're using an other app for messaging, then you need to enable "delivery notifications" for sms. Just go into the options for sms-account and enable the delivery notifications. Such a notification will trigger a check for sent sms.

I know this keyboard. It's nice :)

but unfortunatelly it wasn't possible to enable it after a softreset, so i removed it. As soon as this is fixed, then i will give it a new try hehe

hm... strange.. nothing has changed for this.. let me know about new observations hehe

I've mentioned in the faq about the behaviour in such a situation. In short: no scaling for usb-connection. it should stay at min or max speed, depending on the selection of options.

the behaviour of your device isn't as expected, but i have only a prophet and on my prophet all behaves as expected.

I could contact you for some tests as soon as i have some time.
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] lastnikita:
I can understand this and of course, agree. Is there anything that other app can do to trigger such an event properly ? I mean without that delivery notification enabled, which is working but a bit annoying ^^

Yep, that's still a big problem with that SIP. I've worked around it by installing it first after a hard reset, since a week no problem at all, if you want to give it another try (it gets better and better each release :))

++, niko

edited: not a softreset but a HR, of course :p
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] ikarus:
indeed there is a way. An app can pass of as default messaging app after a message has been sent, that is change the app title to default messaging app and change back afterwards. This will trigger a check too, but from a developers view it doesn't make sense because it's only for BS doing a check...
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] lastnikita:
He'd like to get in touch with you to inform BS that a sms has been sent, when you'll get time enough would you mind to contact him ? :)

<< What I can propose however, and not in the very short term, is making it the other way, I inform his app that a message has been sent. Ask the developer to contact me if he's interrested. >>

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

It's not a big deal, but the WiFi-toggle is acting strange and to me far from logical. Sometimes it shows nothing, sometimes it shows everything but then when I tap again it shows only IP 192.168.1. It's a little bit random.

Another minor issue, in the task list I don't get the normal icon for the calendar when I start calendar with the softkey. When starting calendar from the today-screen or the start-menu I get the normal icon.

I'm currently using build 0234.

BTW, I bought you a couple of bears some day's ago. Hope you enjoyed them.;)
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] ikarus:
Hello nico,

i've thought a little about what we can do to solve that situation. The most simple thing to inform BS about a sent sms is to send it's window a message (as windows currently does). This works for all available versions of BS.

e.g.

PostMessage ( GetBSWindow (), 22136, 0, 0 );

This will trigger a check for sent sms.

Unfortunatelly the BS-Window is a child window so that a FindWindow will not work directly, but you can find a child window though.

e.g.

HWND FindBSWindow ( HWND hWnd )
{
HWND hWndChild = ::GetWindow ( hWnd, GW_CHILD );
while ( hWndChild )
{
HWND hWndTmp = FindBSWindow ( hWndChild );
if ( hWndTmp )
return hWndTmp;

TCHAR szTitle [ 50 ];
if ( GetWindowText ( hWndChild, szTitle, 49 ) && !wcscmp ( szTitle, L"BatteryStatus Today Plugin" ) )
return hWndChild;
hWndChild = ::GetWindow ( hWndChild, GW_HWNDNEXT );
}
return NULL;
}
HWND GetBSWindow ( )
{
HWND hWnd = FindWindow ( L"DesktopExplorerWindow", NULL );
if ( hWnd )
return FindBSWindow ( hWnd );
return NULL;
}

I've posted this into your supplied thread too ;)

Hope it helps.

hm... strange.. it is working well on my device. Anyone else having this problem?

yes, hehe

thanks a lot for your donation. I will enjoy it for sure :)

Kind regards,

BUG: SMS sent-count

roughly since builder 229, the count for sent SMS not accurate.

Sometimes I had sent some SMS, but the count did not change.
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] V&G:
Some interestin fact...

With counter turned on, device wake-up time after soft-reset increased significantly. From 20 sec. on second splash to 1.5 min. and till infinity. XML logging turned off, using Artemis.

Is it only my problem?
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] lastnikita:
I'm sure it will, thanks.

Anyway, I still have that trouble since build.... huh.... let's say around 215... can't remember but it's been a while now. My call and sms counters often (after a SR) won't show until a today 'refresh' (I usually go into BS options and go back to today screen)... Sometime the loading of WA3 (which I think will redraw the whole screen) does the job, but not always.

I've attached screenshots and settings, I guess something's wrong with my settings since nobody else seems to get that problem. Hope you can help :)

FYI, it's the same with every builds since ages, and I've hard reset many times, always had that behaviour (maybe not when it's the only software installed, I guess I should check if it's not when another soft is installed)

Just noticed another thing: I've just put it in its craddle and the battery bar is empty while the percentage shows +50%.... when I clicked it to get another layout, then clicked it again to get back to that layout, the battery bar re-appeared. Not important, just wanted to let ya know.

[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] kalavera:
Hi!

First of all thanks for this great software :D

I have been following the development since the beginning. Today i downloaded the last beta and found a great new "hidden" feature :) Task Manager eheh Its great! Now i don't need pBar or X-Button :D

Some suggestions:

- Make a new tab for this great feature, and add a White List (never close) support (for example, in the tasklist, a contextmenu, where you can add the running program to the whitelist);

- This program is so evolved that now his name is a bit incorrect. For example, why not "PocketStatus", its just a suggestion ... ;

- Also another thing is the build numbers and beta versions for ever (the current BatteryStatusExt.1.04.203.beta4 is for how long?), etc ... maybe create a new numbering system for the new releases, less confusing, and not only based on the build number. I suggest a major version, a minor version, a build number and ocasionally a beta tag.

Thats all for now folks ;)

Thank you again, and keep the good work!!
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] Andre Koster:
Well, here's somebody with the same problem. :o In my case, it's always the outbound month counter (3rd row on the left) and the outbound sms counter (3rd row on the right). Oddly enough, my data counters (3rd row in the middle) always display right. It's not that big a deal, since the first redraw of the Today screen will solve the problem, something I can force by pretending I edit the Today items in the Settings. See attached the screenshots of just after reboot and after forced redraw.

build 0235

:

- added: DWORD CloseButtonWidth ( create this registry-value and set it to 60 will span the [x]-button over the clock for a finger friendly handling )

- fixed: UpdateCalltimes for customization by xml

- added: TaskList (TaskManager) to map to a button

do you have some steps how to reproduce? (at least your settings?)

maybe build 0235 solves your problem?

you're welcome :D

great hehe

hm.. i must think about that, but the TaskManager should be kept as simple as possible..

hm.. i've tried to do so, but there's more to consider...

i think for a beta-version it is ok. It already consists of a major-minor-release number..

The advanced version (and the code) is based on the free-version so the numbering must fit to the free-version..

The most important number is the build-number.

Hello nico, hello andre,

thanks for reporting. It should be fixed with build 0235. Tell me if it's not..

yes, i have only an omap-cpu. For intel xscale cpu's --> BatteryStatus is asking the operating system (depends on the oem). I can't do more..

I'm not sure about supporting the old xscales, because xscale from intel is past and there will be no more xscales from intel any longer.. for long term the old xscales will not survive, but the xscales from marvell will (i guess).

--> Enrich BS with code for the old xscales isn't really attractive to me..

Regards,

ikarus
