Fabolous taskman! I hope you can release 1.3 in English! Much better than other freeware/shareware task managers.

Can someone send me translared version of pBar 1.3?

I can't translate it myself, but on wm6 pbar 1.2 sometimes not working....

PLS, send me 1.3 version in english by PM on forum

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Mr Groch:
Thanks!

But, is it VGA version or QVGA?

If QVGA - will work on VGA ?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Avis:
VGA version
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] mccune:
It's QVGA and it does not show correctly because of this..
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] grypho:

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] ahlok_hk:
pbar has a lot of potential to be the best task manager. But I would like to report some bug of pbar 1.2:

1. When closing the Task Manager ( http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=280104 ) using pbar, my hermes (with WM6) hangs and always has to soft reset.

2. Sometimes (1 time out of 10) when I would like to close apps like the built-in Calculator, pbar won't close it but just minimized it. Coz I could see it listed in the pbar program list.

Thanks. :)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] daxliniere:
pBar is wonderful! I was using vBar for a while, but then discovered this.

There are 3 changes I would like to see: (in no particular order :) )

1) The battery status bar is kinda broken when screen is rotated to landscape.

2) Exceptions list doesn't work when "Close All" button is used.

3) In vBar, you can load custom BMPs to use as close and OK buttons. I made some and it would be nice to use them with pBar.

Like I said, what an awesome program - keep up the great work!

All the best,

Dax.

Is there a way to show Memory meter as well on pbar - the way it can be done on vBar ?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] agovinoveritas:
Why do you need a meter (and use up mighty real estate) when you can set the actual memory amount that is available right under the time?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] k000:
Hmm - that could be the thing - as I am using PPC6700 (with Colonel's moded ROM) and not sure how to remove the clock and date that I have already. So, I disabled the pBar's clock.

Can you please help me remove/replace the original clock ?

Feature request

Feature request:

In the settings menu, 'general' tab, please add "hardware OK button" = Close, PopupMenu, Minimize.

I have noticed that pressing the OK hardware button makes programs minimize; like the default action of pressing the on screen 'X' button without pBar installed.

Thankyou!

Two different english versions

Now there are two different english translation of version 1.3 here. So what is the difference?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] daxliniere:
One is QVGA, the other is VGA.

You want the QVGA version if you haven't done the VGA hack for your handset.

Dax.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] daxliniere:
v1.3 english Download links

QVGA version

VGA version

If you don't know which one your handset needs, it's unlikely you've applied the VGA patch, so choose QVGA

Hi! I've just intalled version 1.3. To change time format, go to Start->Config->System->Time and choose 'H:mm:ss' style. It worked for me, pBar reads time format from system.

Is there anyway to add a link to the Today Screen in favorites? There is a Today Screen icon but you can get to it with the scroll wheel.

I have pBar linked to a key and it would be great to be able to open pBar and scroll through the active programs or return to the Today Screen.

Any ideas?

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Minipli:
I'm looking for the *.ini file of pbar. Where does pbar save the settings?

Everytime I tap on the clock pbar doesn't open it's menu but it opens all applications(only system menus like settings or the dial window) that I opened and closed some hours before. Can you help me? The first time I installied pbar everything was fine. I taped on the clock and the pbar menu opened.

Edit: Sorry, my fault. After I set Popup-->Popup Menu everything worked fine again.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] agovinoveritas:
Uh, no.

However if you have it to a key, after you press the key you can wheel down to the apps. It should close after that.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] GavinN:
Hmm,

OK, so I have pBar assigned to the wireless manager key next to the power button. If I press it it opens pBar and listed are all the active programs, fine - this works as a task manager (ALT-Tab style) I get that. However say I'm using Windows Media player and want to launch another app from my Today Screen or want to check my Calender, messages etc I need to get to the Today Screen.

Currently there is only a Today Screen Icon, top row and 3rd in from the right, this works with the stylus but you can't scroll to it with the wheel which means with one hand, wireless button + scroll wheel I can't get to the today screen, effectively minimise all apps running.

I like pBar - infact I think it's a great app it's just previously I used Spb Pocket Plus and the task manager (ALT-Tab) in that app would give the user an option to switch to the Today Screen which I found useful.

I use pbar with WM6 now. Everything works fine but the background color of the clock doesn't fit to the background color of WM6 anymore. WM6 has a different taskbar design than WM5. It's only a small bug. Is there a way to fix it? Thank you in advance.

Dropdown arrow alignment

Hello Nguyen!

I've been using pBar for many months now (it's wonderful!)

I having been using it with WM5, but my new phone has WM6.

I have noticed that the graphic for the "dropdown arrow" is slightly too high, making the WM6 gradient colour bar appear slightly out of alignment.

Is it possible you could move it down 1 or 2 pixels? Or perhaps, add a simple setting to your program to allow the user to offset it up or down to their liking?

Thankyou!

Can the colors of the Battery indicator be changed?

Running pBar now and it does everything that Wisbar Lite did for me, so great job! I have one question / request (for now ;))... I like the Battery indicator at the top. Is there a way to configure the colors used for the different status though? The Green indicating the remaining is fine, but the blue indicating what has been used doesn't have enough of a contrast and I can't tell the difference between the two easily. WOuld be nice if there was a reg entry or something in the settings that allows you to choose the colors.

Hi, Im using pbar and found a bug, please check how the hour is being overwritten by pbar when used the military time format. Thanks!

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] famewolf:
Argentina uses military time ALL the time..for him it's a bug. ;)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] peu:
:) Yeah, we don't use AM/PM here

My list of suggestions:

In the settings screen, it would be nice to be able to browse to the desired app to make a shortcut.

When time and battery are shown one below the other it would be nice if the background can be selected to be transparent, so it blends with the theme being used.

Be able to add more than 6 shortcuts

Thanks
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] mfrazzz:
A quick way of creating shortcuts is to just start the program you want to have a shortcut for, then click on the pBar menu and click on icon to the left of the red X circle in the bottom line (the icon looks like a document with a green arrow pointing at it). This will create a shortcut to the currently open app. This even worked for creating a shortcut to PocketScreenCapture (which is just a dialog box that is open when you run it).

BTW, on Today screen, only that small triangle is clickable.

It will be more finger-friendly if clicking on the space on the right of that small triangle also popup.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] :
exactly......

but there's workaround - just set gesture as menu popup(set as minimse as default).it works in whole area.

xbutton suxx imo.

only thing i would add is horizontal and diagonal gesture(as it is in inclose mobile),

btw wifi on/off is not working on wizard for me..what's device name that option is searching for?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] hendrixus:
Works great Thanks.

My english is as good as yours is;)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] medkid:
to show up the pBar menu, you just tap and hold at the right-up corner of the today screen by your little and beautiful finger.

And in the pBar option you set the value of "tap and hold [x]" to "popup" and that's it. When you tap and hold ok/x it'll show u the menu :)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] BlackRocks:

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] agovinoveritas:
Man, I had been wondering for an update. I never liked the converted versions of English of Pbar 1.3e. It is always better to get the real version from the author! This was the best task manager I had ever used. Thanks. Downloaded and Running.

PS:. The Wireless manager is a great add on. The one thing that would make this perfect is if you could add one more button. On\Off 3G! Then I would be able to dump another program for this one. Yes, I know, you want to keep it simple and not too bloated, but around the world that would be the best battery saver option. Better then opening CommManager which by the way always remains working in the backgroup --check through a system task manager and you will see the process still runs after you close it. So if I can avoid using it altogether?! That would be awesome.

Do you think it maybe be done?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] nonpaq:
Hey nncuong, great program. Keep the extras coming. Every new addon gives me the chance to dump another app without adding overhead.

Question: Is it possible to allow customization of the top and bottom rows, just like you do with the favorites. I'm using this on a WM5 PDA, not a phone. It would be great to allow me to eliminate the display/options I dont need from the default (like phone connection status).

The bluetooth connection status/toggle doesnt work on mine either. I'm using WM5 with the broadcom bluetooth stack (not microsoft). Could that be the cause? (WiFi works great).

BTW, why did you go with black and white icons on top row, and color on the bottom? I like both sets (the simple b&w icons grow on you), but it just looks weird to me being mixed.

Oh, it may be just me, but I keep hitting the 'power off' button by accident. How about an option to ask for confirmation before turning the unit off?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] mfrazzz:
On my Wizard, the pbar Bluetooth button goes through 3 states. One is on, another is unknown (but appears to still be on) and the third is off. So it seems to work, just not sure what this third state is (the icon is very small in pbar, but it almost appears as a BT icon with an eye. The On and Off states appear just fine).

What I've found is that while the WiFi button appears to work, I don't see the Wifi Button in my CommManager toggle with it (so if I use pbar to turn off Wifi, my commManager still shows Wifi is on, but its really not). Same with Wifi being off, if I change it to On, the CommManager still shows it as being off.

BTW: Thanks for the 1.4 beta update! I really like pBar and how to see it just get better and better. Nice free alternative to Wisbar Lite
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] :
bt's off / on / discoverable...

wifi switch is not working for me(probably lack of wifiinit in /startup).

byt damn, this soft should be used in kitchens as default...

xbutton died forever, imo.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] mfrazzz:
Its in my next build and htc x-button is out ;) Been that way in my beta for a few weeks and will release with 1.4
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] nncuong:
pBar isn't full compatible with WM6. So, you don't config to show Time, date..., popup-button in Task bar. You can tap and hold for popup menu or you can press the button (assign to pBar).

If you config to show popup-button, format time must be 'hh:mm:ss tt', 'h:mm:ss tt', 'HH:mm:ss tt' , 'H:mm:ss tt' or 'hh:mm tM ' (has a space)

I use ossvcs.dll for on / off wireness, so it isn't compatible with some device. I think it's ok with all HTC device.

In next version, I'll add options for customize button.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] joemanb:
I think it would be nice to be able to change the color of the battery bar.

also, the downarrow icon is kindof small, so it is easy to miss with the stylus

erm, one problem, nothing important: i assigned button to show pbar - now, dpad is navigating inside its menu, but i cant launch anything with "enter", menu just closes, i can launch/click things by tapping screen only...

No its fine, it won't update till you remove every trace of root, at least thats how it went for me, every time I tried to update, it said traces of root and would restart,so you should remove all traces of root including apps and roms and stuff, I unrooted using superSU. I then installed lg pc suite and clicked on " Mobile device " and then " Restore upgrade errors" then it did some sort of update, and then i did an OTA update, worked fine, went to 10h and finally rooted again using purpledrake lite!

[Lenovo P780] kdkc:
Hi,

I own a rooted Lenovo P780 that was bought as a gift. The phone was pre-rooted (the bootscreen mentions lenovo-forums.ru, I think it's a worldwide ROM that's installed). It's been fine for a year, but in the last few days, the internal storage has maxed out, causing problems with updates.

Yesterday, I tried something as an experiment without really thinking through the full consequences.

I had busybox and terminal emulator installed so I made a copy of the /data/dalvik-cache in the built-in SD card (since it's always present and I have an external one for all my regular data), renamed the existing dalvik-cache directory to dalvik-cache-bak (as a precaution before outright deleting, lol) and created a symlink to the new location. Everything was fine, until I restarted...

I'm not sure if the permissions are invalid or the internal SD card is not mounted early enough in the boot sequence but now the phone is basically crippled. It's not outright bricked; it does progress so far into booting, then opens many requesters about all the stock applications failing. It basically gets stuck trying to restart them.

I've not really used ADB before, but I assume that it should be possible to mount the /data partition, remove the symlink and rename the dalvk-cache-bak to dalvik-cache and at least get the thing working before resorting to some sort of factory reset.

I feel completely nubular for having to ask, but the question is, what exactly do I need to do to get into the device?

[Lenovo P780] kdkc:
Thanks for the post. However, I really don't wan't to reflash the phone just yet as there is data (contacts etc) on there that aren't synced yet and I don't want to lose. Also, reflashing the phone to fix a basic filesystem issue seems like using a nuke to crack an egg.

I need to be able to boot the phone into recovery mode, but I can't seem to find any option for that. The only key combination that does anything different than a regular boot is holding power & volume down which boots into "meta mode", which doesn't seem to be useful.

Is there some special trick for this model to get into recovery mode?
[Lenovo P780] stympy:
Did you tried key combination like: power + vol up and down pressed together?
