Hello NewSPV,

you need to tap on the left-most battery/ac-icon. Start at the battery bar and go one step left and tap :D

There is a pre-docu here --> pre-docu.

My free time isn't much, so if any of you want to help so maybe give me some text for the docu ;)

I will increase the width of the last option. It is called "Use WM5-API".

If you have a prophet you don't need to check this option.

btw. very nice control-style :)

oh... it's getting late hehe...

Hello utak3r, all the positions should be kept even if you've unchecked that option.

Could you post your xml and which options caused the problem?

you're welcome :)

i will check this.

great ;)

I will update the homepage soon!!

I must check at first why build 0245 cause freezes on Apache-device, but that takes time...

It must be located under BS-Regkey

HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Today\Items\BatteryStatus

If this doesn't work, then there's nothing you can do. It's the oem-part (or odm-part??) implemented by htc which doesn't update the value (more often)... maybe to use the batterycapacity for other more important things...
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] ikarus:
just checked it and it can't be reproduced with pocketcm 0.12

i guess it isn't a bug of BS. Does it work with "Screen Rotate" of Windows itself?
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] stead:
Hi, first off i have to say great app, love it! recently enabled the cpu scaling....(sorry if this has been mentioned, but this thread is over 250 posts long!! and the search feature doesn't bring back anything when i search for sms)

*edit* just found the faq, (missed it on first quick glance, answered some of my questions!)

on the 1'st of the month i have the call times set to reset, everything was working fine, however now, outgoing sms's aren't counted, incoming work fine, incoming and outgoing phone duration also work fine, everything works except for outgoing sms, which is one of the reasons i wanted this program! as i have a bad habbit of going over the limit!

if anyone else has had this problem would help, I haven't uninstalled and reinstalled it as i didn't want to loose the counters so far!

p.s. loving the datacounter too, never seen it work until the latest build!

*edit* not sure if it helps, but in response to an earlier post with a simular issue..

one more question, with the sms count, if you send one message that is several messages in lengh, does it count each message or just the one message?
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] V&G:
Your are right!! It does not work. Seems, it's a bug of PocketCM.

I'm sorry about disturbance...
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] utak3r:
OK, I've said it in a wrong way...

What I'd like to see, is to have positioning and aligning in a whole row, that is for example:

<Item ..... left="-20" align="right">

meaning it's relative to the row, and not to the last item... it'd be really more easy to design a good one - as for now, I can only do that by trials and errors ;)

It could be <Item ... globalalign="..."> for example :)

Another thought: Could you please add a support for another two digits in a clock? :D for seconds...
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] ikarus:
freeze-problem solved and there will be a new build 0246 later on this night when i'm at home :)

don't miss the manual too hehe, there is one for normal and one for advanced version...

me too... me too ;)

just to be sure. Which app r u using to send sms?

Your counter will survive if you uninstall BS, no matter what version. They're using very less bytes, so i decided to keep them. At least, this is the way it should work.

yes

no problem.

oh hehe, okay.. now i understand.

hm... maybe other theme-makers comment on this suggestion?

You want the coordinates to be absolute instead of relative positioned. Right?

In case i would add such into the parser...

what about: absolute=0/1 (0 by default) - in Item/View/Row/Window-Tags?

This way you can set absolute-attribute in Window-Tag and having any nested Elements absolute positioned.

Make your suggestions and i will think about this weekend or so...

In principle yes.. the new paint-handler should redraw only the seconds... i must think about..
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] stead:
using the default wm messaging app, not sure of its name.

Just uninstalled battery status, then soft reset, and reinstalled, still not showing up the outgoing texts. all other counters working tho :D

if its any help to anyone, on the 02 orbit phone if i clock the phone any lower than 149 i notice it seems to flicker the screen slightly, i'm not sure why but i set the lowest in the dynamic overclocking to that incase its damaging the screen, i'm only assuming this is making a huge difference to battery life! although i' noticed a couple of things seem to like the extra speed
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] mastelos:

[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] R0N1N:
Looks like on 0245 and 0246 the AM/PM is not working. I am in PM now and it is showing AM.

Edit: Looks like PM rolls at 1pm+, the roll to pm should occur >=12 instead of >12

Suggestions

Hi Ikarus,

First, MANY THANKS for the time you take to:

.Develop such a nice app !

.Answer every questions and feature requests which came along that huge thread.

.Read that long post :p

Nice to see you still find bugs & features to work on !!

Here are a few suggestions so that you won't get sleep for weeks hehe

Is it a bug or a dark caching stuff ? I tested my connection speed many times and it only incremented the data counter the 1st time, then it didn't increase at all.

I *think* the data counter didn't restore correctly on my last HR, but since I have problems with PIMbackup (files are read-only upon restore), and since I didn't have enough time to test it extensively, I'm not sure at all :D

PLEASE if you find some time to dig into that, add an Internet Calling on/off switch (the SIP protocol embedded into WM6). BS should display the status (maybe this can be done via registry-tracker, I'll search later...), and a click on the status would switch.

Now let's talk about tray icons ! I suggest tapping the phone/wifi/BT icons could switch them on/off directly, and a tap'n hold would display the menu.

I don't know if it can be done, but a long press on Action HW key should act like a tap'n hold.

Why is the minimize function located under the phone icon ? It doesn't make sense to me..

Could you remove Connections submenu and directly add "Connect to MyConnection" and "Disconnect" instead ? Even better, add a fourth *web* icon to directly switch on/off a default connection, so that we can also see its status (I use wisbar and it'd be great to get rid of the taskbar connection icon).

I wish BT could automatically (and silently in case of failure) connect to A2DP when switched on/off, could you make that an option ? And keep an A2DP switch in menu. Just FYI, WM6 settings and pair device tabs are inverted.

Since WiFi would only have one "settings" entry left in menu, it would be nice to be taken directly to settings on tap'n hold (if you implement that of course).

At last, could you add some icons pack or themes to first post ?

Oh, and yeah, you forgot to add last build download link to your signature ;)

Thank you again, and btw I'd be glad to donate one more time if you provide a cmd line tool :eek:
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] LeoArg:

build 0246 - 10/18/2007

:

- fixed: crashes on Apache (many thanks to testuser for all the logs and tests!!!)

BSClockTheme attached to 3rd post ! Many thanks to Nostramo for ClockTheme!!

delete these values:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Shell\cumulativecalltimers\line_0\OutgoingSMSCustomFTLow : 2565130368

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Shell\cumulativecalltimers\line_0\OutgoingSMSCustomFTHigh : 29885492

does it help?

Could you be more specific? example? which theme?...

sometimes there is time and sometimes there is no time, but i do my best hehe

Actually fixing bugs has the highest priority... freezes in particular.

It's very interesting to understand why harmless code can lead to freezes under special circumstances and sometimes you can see what's not written on the net...

And features.. yes there is still a long list to do :)

Many thanks for your work to write down the suggestions!!

hard to say.. it seems that connection is tested using js through http-protocol. If you're using a proxy (usually set by your provider and sometimes there are transparent-proxies you don't know), then it could be a caching problem.

An html-page can request to invalidate the cache, but it's up to the proxy to handle this.

I know and like a lot the stuff about sip, rtp, rtsp and so on ;) I'm actually experimenting with that protocols on my desktop-computer (when i have time for), but i didn't know that there's a sip-stack build into wm6.

Is that really true or is it a 3rd party stuff?

You could try with registry-tracker. In near future, there will be a way to start an arbitrary application by tap (with xml-customization) too.

i don't want to add a new tray-icon only for this function. Where do you want it to be?

btw. you can access this function by context-menu too..

As far as i know it's up to the bt-headset to reconnect. some do and some don't.. maybe look for a headset which does it?

oh okay hehe. I didn't know. Still using wm5 because i was told that none of the available inofficial wm6-roms support devicelock by pin-protection, which is a must for me.

The third post has some themes attached. I can attach 4 items only, so the first post is reserved for testing-versions and language-file.

i could add a link to the first post, but i don't know if this is really useful. A direct link to the attachement is too much work for me, because i must update the signature with any new build..

I will check your suggestions in detail this weekend, but at first glance:

--> my experience with bs shows that tap'n'hold isn't very intuitive in terms of usabilty.

I received a lot of emails asking me how to enable this, enable that (e.g. Taskbar-Indicator) and a lot of users don't know how to use tap'n'hold. (Be aware that very less users read the manual)

You're using ppc's for long time now (i guess), but most of the users are using devices the way they use things in real-life. In real-life you don't push a button and hold it... at least these situations are rare.

I must think more about your suggestions hehe

There is still a long list to do, but it's on the list hehe

you're welcome :)

Outgoing SMS not counted

Sorry for my waste English LOL

ahm i had the same problem - 2 times until now - today again - and i probably found a result for that ...

i had in my sent sms folder a message which was 1K big - all other messages only 0K - ---> deleted the Message which was 1K big and now the sms counting works again fine !
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] niall0s:
hey ikarus, still loving your work :)

i'm having a problem with the last 2 buids on a HTC Wizard

The third row always stalls between swiching between views

i.e. when i tap the row, the row is highlighted and pauses for a few seconds before changing ;(
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] utak3r:
Exactly so.

I think it'd be a good idea, this relation switch :)

Only this nesting... let's see:

<Item .... absolute="1" left=... align=...>
<label .... left="10">
</item>

so - label is positioned where?... hm. I think every element below the Item level should be relative to this Item... so you place the Item in some place in a row (measuring it globally) and its subitems (images, labels and so on) relative to it...

or not... ;) Give me one more day :)

Others should speak up, too :D
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] stead:
This worked!!!!

Can't say if that helps or not now as the seemingly crazy solution worked, (wanted to try that one first...it just seemed to easy to be true!)

sms counter showing 57, although I belive i'v sent more messages than that...Well, I have 57 messages in my sent items folder, however some of those messages have been more than one sms in length, also the one I just deleted, Anyways, I'll see how it goes, If it happens again I shall delete those keys next time see if that solves it.

Many thanks!
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] lastnikita:
Yeah I guess that's it, I'm behind my operator proxy. But it's still strange that BS didn't count at least the web page loading (I guess doing it over 10 times would have incremented at least by 0.1 Mo ? Maybe not...)

Yep, it's built into, and works better than any other 3rd party apps I've tried.

I guess one can read the state through registry, but I'm not sure about switching it. I'll see what I can find out about this and I'll let you know.

Actually I didn't understand the duplicate with BS main menu, which is where I think it should go, but... really, I don't care finally, that was just a useless comment :p

I recently bought a 2nd one (much more expensive), it has the same behaviour.... Actually, if you don't go with the tap'n hold thing, it's no problem since I can directly tap A2DP which will do the same as I requested, so forget it !

I guess you're right, although I never tested it, it's been extensively reported that pin code gets corrupted from time to time. I don't care :D

I was thinking of that link : http://www.chi-tai.info/index.php?docid=download/cd_z104200&docid1=iM_cs, but I hadn't seen before you don't want your users to download from there.

mmmm... yep hehe

Ok, so maybe you could just reorganize the BT menu (put A2DP on the top ? Who needs to go to settings everyday ^^), and add that web icon I was thinking of ?

No hurry about that cmd line tool, you already saved me many minutes with the A2DP shortcut, kudos :)

Hello,

I installed BateryStatus Ver. 0.04.203 build 0244. Works great with my HTC P3300 (with official HTC WM6 rom). Thanks!!!

Please, can you have a look?

Thanks!!!

Maybe that SMS was too long, if so it was split and sent as 2 SMS..

Call Timer probs again...

I currently have my Count Plan set to 8am - 6:59pm on weekdays. It works perfectly for calls after 7pm after I upgraded to Build 241 but been receiving some morning calls lately and noticed that they were being counted. This happened on several occasions on calls between 515am-730am.

Sorry if this is already fixed in the latest builds.

Did a test call to myself just now (5:20am) and it got counted. Attached are my reg settings that I just exported. I'm currently using this on a Wizard, Timezone = -08:00 [PST] w/ Daylight Saving.
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] ikarus:
build 0247 - 10/19/2007

:

- fixed: parsing of callplan-patterns

btw. what do you think about renaming the project into

PocketKnife

?

Hello niall0s, nice to see you :)

i guess you've recently deactivated cpuscaler. right?

Behaviour of this row is the same as ever, but in case cpuscaler is deactivated and you disable the cpu-utilization-view, then any resources for the row will be released, that is threads, memory, events and so on...

BS is waiting for the cpu-util-thread (terminating itself) instead of explicitly terminating the thread... so it takes at max the time you've set in options for the cpu-util-period.

I'm looking for a faster way soon.. maybe terminating the thread..

allright. take the time it needs ;)

great solution neo24 :)

Delete these values as the last solution only hehe

This will cause the algorithm to recount any of the sms in sent-folder..

hm.. it's a nightly build, which means it may have more features but could have bugs because of the new features..

The first post has always the last working beta..

yes, good idea hehe

i could need it too..

maybe you've enabled unicode in sms?

thanks a lot for your settings.

I've found the bug and fixed it. See build 0247 :D
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] lastnikita:
Love it :)

Much better than BS (while we're used to it) considering the huge job it now does in a so tiny space ^_^'

Killed my Phone!

This plugin has killed my phone. I thought I'd add the CPU load indicator to my Mogul. The device immediately locked up once I clicked ok.

I had to pull my battery out. As soon as the today screen shows up, the phone locks up again.

I can't do anything with the phone now. I can't even connect to a PC using USB. Does anyone have any ideas?
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] ikarus:
i've already replied to your email, but why not have a look into the manual?
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] its right:
many thanks to you for this great tool, i want to report for a bug (i'm not sure if it is already reported before), if you minimize battery status to trylaunch , after many of tasks we will have multiple B.S. shortcuts on the trylaunch.

thanks again :)
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] kalavera:
Like i suggested sometime ago, the BatteryStatus name is not adequate because it does many other great things! I suggested at that time,

PocketStatus

... i think this name represents very well what BS does actually.
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] lastnikita:
It does much more than just displaying statuses... Taskmanager, Overclocking, Data/Voice/Messaging counters, Shortcut for many system functions (BT/A2DP/WiFi/Phone/Connections/Devicelock/LCD switches), and I guess I forgot some others :D

Pocket Knife is really adequate, and sounds real good, IMHO.

By the way, maybe it would be the chance to open a new thread with updated first post, and errrr get rid of that poll stuff which has nothing to do here anymore ;)
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] ikarus:
hello its right,

hm.. you're the second one reporting this.. i will set up an automated test for reproducing.. maybe later on..

the idea was something like a virtual pocketknife with helpful tools integrated and a user can select the tools and pull out the tools he needs..

but of course i'm open for better suggestions...

good idea :D

i will contact an admin as soon as the process to change the name happens.

Hi Ikarus, any way to make the clock smaller (while still good-looking) ?

So that we can put time and date on the same line..

edit: I guess the solution is in smaller bitmaps, if someone already did it, would he be kind enough to share it here please ? :)

edit 2: actually, it'd be even better if you could add digits for the date as well.... ;)
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] ikarus:
i've changed the minimize-function a bit, so build 0248 will come mid of the week and you can try again :)

hm.. PocketStatus let me think of the status in my pocket... maybe PocketPCStatus, but that name is too long somehow..

It has too much of my nick :D

it's just a nickname i'm using here...

hm... but it doesn't describe well what it's good for..

it's counting on my device. Anyone else having this problem?

great logo :) In case i choose PocketKnife, i would be glad to use it, if you don't mind.

You could use Paint.NET and resize the pngs. As far as i know, the alpha-channel will be handled too.

RedUser did some work on smaller digits..

what about using another font for the date?

Actually i don't know how he enabled the date, but it looks cool hehe

btw. this could be interesting for anyone.

Some days ago, somebody told me about a behaviour of wm which could accidentally lead to a high batterydrain.

- You have your ppc in your pocket

- You have it set to be silent

- an incoming sms, reminder, alarm wakes up the device

- the devicelock prevents from unwanted taps and actions which is good

... but

- as soon as the display gets touched

-- the backlight turns on again (uses a lot of batterypower)

-- the idle timer (to suspend the device) starts again

In case you're driving your bike or having a walk (and don't recognized the reminder), then the idle timer could restarts very often and could lead to a very high batteryconsumption

(until you don't move anymore and the idletimer suspends the device).

This way your device can be in PowerOn-State for several hours (depending on what you're doing then) and you don't know..

What do you think? Should there be some solution to prevent this situation?
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] lastnikita:
You mean, like, cutting ? :D

The digits look real good, where can I find that one ? Looks like it's not the same as in 3rd post..

Yep, while this particular font is almost unreadable IMHO, using another font is certainly enough, I'll test a few when I'll get enough time, and will post my theme once finished. Thanks :)

Mmmm..... stop moving :p
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General] ikarus:
