Has anyone tried this on WM6? I'm planning to try it in a few days, so if there's no feedback, I'll let you guys know if it works.

i have some problem with the clock i see only 0 0 in my main screen and when i tap it to lock the screen i see nothing ....maybe it'a beacuse i have hebrow installed in my pocketpc what should i do?

and another quick qustion can i make the screen automticly lock it self after a few min that i didn't used it?

great job!!!!!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] centvin:
That's the same for me, "0 0" instead of the time on the clock, but the locking works when tapping on it... any idea?

I got the french Orange "Swiss" last rom...

Very good job indeed, congratulations!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] KarhU:
I do not know how to do that, but I managed to map hardware button to slide.exe. To do that you have to create a link to it (for example to programs folder). Then you can map this link via Settings >> Buttons. Only issue I am having is that the time is lagging two hours on Slider screen.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] pasil.pt:
Many thanks. I will try ;)

Very nice find! Like many other my only problem is with the slide unlock the time is off by 5 hours and the date is 1 day ahead. If anyone finds away to fix this please post, thanks I will continue to play around with it and see what i can come up with..........

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] chymmylt:
Just a guess - I don't have the application installed and haven't had that program but your phone has to clock settings Home -> Visting. Maybe your phone is accidentally set to Visiting clock and the home clock is off by a bit and the applications are pulling the time from the Home clock? It's a shot in the dark guess but worth a shot! :)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] ceelo2007:
Well

Thanks for the reply that was actually the first thing that i checked when i noticed the problem
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Vectre:
Clock Off

Best guess I can give is that the time isn't being adjusted for time zone. Mine is 5 hours ahead and I am in US Central time zone (GMT -6) so it is close to Greenwich mean time.

I would try to fix this myself since the source is provided but I need a developers kit and a compiler...

Edited:

Actually if I remember correctly (big IF) daylight savings time is a US thing so with DST right now that would put the offset right at GMT.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] calvin83:
anybody figure out how to fix the timing issue:confused:
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] A_C:
Ok, caught the bug of the sluggish button... please try this patch...

You have to d/l the 1.04, then overwrite the SLIDE.EXE with 1.041.

Cheers,

A_C
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] A_C:
Thank you for your translation at mobile01. I also hope that Chinese will be support.

Cheers,

A_C
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] binhlswan:
Thank you very much A_C. 1.041 worked great on my 8525, the sync also worked during lock. However, there are 2 minor things:

1. when release slide button, it will go back but along the way it will stop and pause for 0.5 or 1second then go back 100%

2. the animation "slide to unlock" sometimes seemed to skip couple frames.

it would be perfect if the 2 minor things above be fixed. But I am happy now with 1.041 :)

Cheers!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] A_C:
OK. Just adjusted 1 parameter, please try this out & let me know the result.

Again, the zip contains the EXE only.

It seem that you are working on this new version all day.

I have been edit my article on mobile01 thrice...Ha Ha Ha(from 1.04 to 1.05).

But it's still great to see v1.05...:)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Xanthus:
There is a problem I found.

When I use landscape mode, the slidelock seems to be upside down.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Cifer:
This is really strange b/c I can use ActiveSync while running this application.. btw. great application!

The versions v1.03, 1.04, 1.041, 1.042 and 1.05 (omfg so many... ;D) works on my xda neo aka htc prophet but if you push them to the right the animation isnt really smooth at all, its just smooth when it goes back to the start position... =(

err... what's your device? Say, when normal mode is NORTH. My device's landscape mode is WEST. Maybe your device's landscape mode is EAST. And I've only implemented the code to cater WEST. Need some time to fix it then.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] A_C:
Actually, I'm not sure what's the causes. Maybe your device is run out of memory as both program eat a lot. Try to use the launcher developed by Grumps, which can be found here, instead.

A_C, I tried 1.042, it became sluggish again. So I went back to 1.041 as it is the best right now for my 8525.

for 1.05, still experiencing with sluggish lock button. landscape mode didn't work, nothing happen.

keep up the good work, A_C.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Xanthus:
Yeah, my landscape mode is east....
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] niall0s:
Same here on a Qtek 9100, landscape mode is upside down and it doesn't unlock correctly either ;( the slide bar does not move, the device does unlock but the graphics for the slide app remain on the screen.

Another thing i've noticed, if the device is locked in portrait mode and i open the keyboard to swith to landscape mode the slide app does not switch orientation and goes all crazy, seems the device is no longer locked and i can interact with the today screen even tho all i can see it the slide animation? hope that makes some kind of sence to someone :D

Still love this little app tho :) :)

Keep up the good work

Is there anyway to use the slidelock without the iphone backround? just to use as a regular device lock?

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] egomezpe:
what do you mean exactly?

I don´t know if you want use 'slide' with your currente today configuration or to remove the background with the two fishes and replace it with a blank screen
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] joe1402:
There is a folder named "Gfx" in your "Slide.exe"-folder. Here you can find a "Res"-folder with "wallpaper(L).bmp". If you replace this bmp with a black, yellow or pink one, you got what you want. ...or you can read this post. ;)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] ianrulz123:
I am having a similar issue, however on my device I can't get landscape to work at all. If I am "locked" and slide my keyboard open I get the same effect described above. I'm on an HTC Wizard (Cingular 8125) with WM5.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] A_C:
OK. Here it is the quick fix v1.051:

- cater both EAST & WEST Landscape mode, but no fix for sliding keyboard yet ;)

- better button movement, but not perfect yet

It's a patch file only contains the SLIDE.EXE, you need to get v1.05 as well.

Cheers,

A_C
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] A_C:
That sound possible, but need some design for the presentation. Sometimed too much words may make the screen looks crowdy. Do you have any good idea?

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Xanthus:
The landscape mode stop upside down, but slidelock needs 3~5 seconds to enable.

Me too. Seems the GAPI of PPL dislike Landscape... :(
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] joe1402:
Maybe with some (customizible) pics like in Spb MobileShell?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] jackbnymbl:
Hey, I think I might have found a way to get some kind of user name out of the registry in WM2003SE. I assume that it didn't work already because the owner info is stored in a binary value. Maybe slide.exe could read HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Ident\Username for WM2003SE devices?

The only problem is that I don't know how this value would be set outside of editing the registry, as I haven't seen a setting for it anywhere.

Not sure how to tell which OS is actually running though...

Just another suggestion for this particular issue, though my other one in the PPL forums would probably be better (giving the user an option in the ini whether to use the operator name, or a custom string stored in the ini)

A_C: BTW, I'm the same person who keeps bugging you in the PPL forums ;)

If you would like a website on which you could host your files so users don't have to find them in the forums, I would be happy to do it on mine: http://jackbnymbl.googlepages.com

Not sure if googlepages has bandwidth restrictions, but I doubt it (considering that it is google...)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] A_C:
Since I do not own a WM2003SE device, it's hard to debug. However, you may try out v1.051 which has removed "Unknown".

EDIT:

Just found a solution for 2003 device from other forum. Add the following tree to the registry: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\state\phone

Then add the following keys:

Current Operator Name

Radio Ready State

Signal Strength Raw

For example:

Current Operator Name="3G emome"

Radio Ready State=1

Signal Strength Raw=100
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] Xanthus:
In wm2003se you can use registry force slidelock to display operator name.

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\state\phone

add

Current Operator Name="whatever"

Radio Ready State="1"

Signal Strength Raw="100"

"Current Operator Name" is REG_SZ

"Radio Ready State" and "Signal Strength Raw" are REG_DWORD

Enjoy....:)

Using slide 1.051 is great.

i730 WM5

I put slide.exe into the notification queue so it comes up by the time pocketsuspendfx has done its little animation.

I added another wakeup notification with a mortscript file that automatically powers off the device after a few seconds if I don't unlock it, in case I power the device on accidentally. My device seems to come on too frequently for random internet updates, which I don't always need anyway.

Essentially, the program seems to be working great, except for the one nag that might not be solvable with ppl, to display instantly when powered on.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] InfernoVietBoi:
Slider still lags on my 8525. The original/first version slide back flawlessly though. Thanks for all the effort!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] A_C:

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] vsa:
Hello, great job! The "theme" is really beautiful and the user interface is easy to use.

There are two questions: I use an (german) xda orbit, which shows on my Tody-Screen (with an extra-tool, what was included by o2) my "Homezone". Is it possible to integrate that anyhow to your theme?

How can I add more Programm-Icons to your theme? I mean something like an icon with a link to a 2nd page, where I can place more programs. Eg. I click a "more"-Button and another page opens with tools or a Contact-Page opens with all the Icons with Pictures of my friends. If I click on one person it would dial the number... (The Idea comes from another iphne theme form ozan killic (http://www.ozankilic.com/?p=31 He uses wisbar to realize that, but is is very beta...)

Indeed, I overlooked that you first have to make a link in your \Windows\Start menu\Programs folder. The link should be called slide.lnk , and contain

where the number is the length of the string between quotes.

it would indeed be very nice if missed calls / text messages could be found on the slide screen. same maybe for upcoming appointment.

Nice job BTW A_C. Finally a user friendly screen lock!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] diaftia:
Here is a potentially good idea. This device lock allows you to run a program on lock before its powered down (option in CP after soft reset):

I tried running slide.exe in this case but got an application error 0x00401790 access violation at 0xf738c. That probably doesnt tell you much but I would imagine that its reproducible. Could be a nice set of tools to use together.
