[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] redz1234:
thanks alot for the clock.. trying it right now.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] redz1234:
Can anyone tell me if this issue is happening to them please. When you receive an incoming call or get a task/calendar reminder the phone unlocks all buttons?

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] corranq:
Glad I could help! And I love MemMaid too, keeps everything running smoothly =) Is S2U2 running well now for you?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] ytsejam_:
same problem with my device.. actually, sometimes it takes a lot of presses, sometimes, just once.. but most of the time, it won't come back to life unless i press the power button..

i use a qtek 9100 (HTC Wizard) wm6 by the way..

hope this gets fixed soon..

if only i have any means to donate.. i would do so A_C.. but for now.. i hope my gratitude and appreciation may help..

Start after wake-up problem

Hi,

I have strange problem with starting S2U2 after standing-by device programaticaly (in my case by SPB Pocket Plus power-off button). If I switch device off with hardware button everything works OK. It's interesting, Slider works 100% different - OK with software button, no with hardware button.

My device is Artemis with WM6 official upgrade.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] A_C:
back to topic

Hi, it's really hard to sleep last night. But after a deep thought, I think I should let it go as:

- educating other people's manner is none of my business;

- there are still a lot good guys around (I assume... :p)

However, I'll try to recover myself & hopefully soon to fix the bugs of this little app...

Just some quick answers:

Q. Error:UserNotification has too much records?

A. That means the notification database contains more than 500 records. It'll ruin the Autostart of S2U2. Pls use other s/w to clean it up first.

Q. No Unread XXX notifications icons?

A. Because they'll be hidden when there is no unread items.

Q. No Appointment details shown when it's not time specific?

A. The ShowAppointment simply copy the info from the Today screen. If it's not shown on the Today screen, it'll not be displayed.

Q. Some device's Autostart does not work? Or Wake-up problem?

A. No solution yet... still under investigation...

Q. No CAB link?

A. Get Winrar to extract it.

Q. S2U2 comes out when a call is incoming over a long period?

A. Should be fixed soon.

Q. S2U2 does not come out when the LCD is dimmed?

A. In S2U2, IdleStart's default value is 0. You have to enable it first.

@Tranman

I could not reproduce your environment as I do not have PushEffect. I cannot provide any fix for that.

@Messel

There is no problem at all.

@dlindman

I tried SPB Time as well, but could not reproduce your problem.

@Mr Groch

I've already answered your question last time, NO... with same reason.

@malatesta

I think that's a device specific problem that I cannot offer any fix on that.

@sanman

I didn't change that part. Could other Atom user reconfirm this?

@finthamoussu

Pls d/l the attached files & replace them at the GFX folder.

@redz1234

AJerman answer that question very clearly at here... http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=1574173&postcount=341

@poorlyduck

The spacing of each clock figure is hard-coded, so you have to untouch them. Otherwise they'll not be shown correctly.

@ytsejam_

My last advice is try to enable SafeMode. Pls read readme for details.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] dodo-dk:
But the "not time specific Appointment" was shown on the Windows Mobile Today Screen, only in S2U2 not. :-(
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] generalriden:
GOOD A_C...your doing fine bro. There are a lot of people here for you. Just keep your head up and have a peace of mind. There are more happiness when u have a peace of mind and lot of supporters like us.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] A_C:
Just checked, that should be the "all day event". Just afraid that will be quite crowdy if it's also displayed. Let me think about it later.

Thanks man. :)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] joeko:
This is my first reply.(sorry for my bad english)

Thanks for your excellent application A_C !

i can enable Dpad to slide the button. (atom life wm6 - tra. chinese)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] dodo-dk:
How much is later - in 5min ?

JOKE, you are the best A_C.

Don´t forget, the alarm notification, the callID, the not time specified appointment and the weather and i´m the happiest user :-D

S2U2 was not make for my Device, my Device was make for S2U2. Without S2U2 with all functions - i don´t need my Device. :-D

Thanks

Edit: I know my english is very terrible, German is much better for me :-D
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] MCSchermer:
Wounderful

Hi A_C,

very cool application. From the first use I fall in love with it, a must have.

Would it be an idea to add a wakeup function to it, with a snooze mode? Because you have the notification things and the nice UI already inside.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] DMAND:
Thanks for answering my question, I changed ACIdlestart to 1 and reset ILock2 but it still doesnt start when the screen dims :confused: EDIT: Found Idlestart and changed to 1

Also is there a bug, I noticed that if after pressing the power button you allow slidetounlock to come on for 15 seconds and then turn the screen off, if you then press the power button the screen flashes on and off imediately requiring you to press the power button twice in order to start the device.

Keep up the great work, I'll be donating as soon as my credit card gets unblocked :D
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] DvTonder:
Thank you for the clock. Have been looking for one like this to match the HTC home clock that shows when I unlock.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] oleum:
press&hold [end call]

Hi A_C

thanks for the answer.... I'm attended of the new release. :)

An other thing: if I press&hold the red key (end call) by default it open the windows for power-off the device or select the fly mode.

- It's possible to make the s2u2,while it is active, "intercepts" the press&hold and it considers only like a tap?!

Nb: for the rest all it works wonderfully well :D

Device: MIO A701 - WM5
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] sanman:
A_C - Sorry - I'm an idiot! I was installing the old version. Too many old cab files on my device. Sorry to waste your time.

Keep your head up champ - don't let others bring you down. Your helping out a lot of people so there should be nothing but praise for you.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] finthamoussu:
Images you attached didn't fix it, but I understand the point.

I have edited the default images (vtopbar and vtopL) to width of 800px and it works perfectly now.

So, any other WVGA user, use attached images...

Thanks again A_C!!!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] finthamoussu:
Well, after uploading the pinctures to the forum, it has changed from png to jpg and also has resized them (I suppose the same happened to you A_C)

So, WVGA users, the idea is to resize vtopbar and vtopL images width to 800px instead of 640px.

Animated pictures

A_C

Do you plan on including the animated pictures option in s2u2, I really liked it in the older versions. Thanks:cool:
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] spikeone:
Very nice work!

Installed an older version and this newer one, this one runs a lot smoother

Can't wait to see the Caller ID feature appear :)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] korea206:
HEY A_C,

this is a great product and i love it.

works fantastic for my treo.

i just wanted to ask you one thing however since i like showing

s2u2 to everyone,

Is there a way to determine how long it stays awake?

:P

thanks,

How's the battery drain on this one? On S2U20.3, I get about 80-100mA at blank screen on acbPowerMeter, while on thge latest version of S2U, I get about 40-60mA at blank screen
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Hai-zi:
If it becomes an option, can you point the icon to the current temperature instead to the forecast... as S2U1 was.

Hi A_C, and be great congratulations for your amazing work !

I apologize for my poor english ...

Is it possible (i couldn't find such an option) to make S2U2 active during a phone call ?

I just succeeded, thanks to the registry, to turn off the screen but i'd prefer to lock it with the amazing soft ...

Please help me ;-)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Maiisoh:
Great Application

A_C

Great job with this app. Keep up the great work. We all really appreciate your hard work.

I've been using your S2U apps since v1.17 and have been immpressed with all the upgrades since. I'm using a xv6700 appache with the mobile 6 upgrade.

A couple of things I've noticed throughout the various incarnations:

1. with sbp time installed, s2u and s2u2 would crash and lock up the phone. Once sbp time was uninstalled all was well again with no problems.

2. with sbp weather installed, same as above.

3. with maresware weatherpanel installed, again same as above.

4. I found time and weather programs that work great with s2u2 with no problems. Sbsh mobile software (http://www.sbsh.net/) has a (currently free) beta time program that works with s2u2 running with no crashes. Unfortunatly since it is still in the beta stage, the features are still lacking. Hopefully they will keep improving it. Their weather program called pocketweather also seems to work fine with s2u2 with no crashes. As a matter of fact, I like this weather program mush better than both sbp and warsware. I had these installed the same time you came out with s2u2 v0.1 and since to v0.5 with no problems.

Now I do have a bug I wanted to bring to your attention. I'm not sure if it is specific to my type of phone only or if others have the same problem.

1. I set up the notifications on s2u2 last night. I took the phone out of the charger 2hrs, 20min ago with 100% battery. I am now down to 20% battery with it screaming at me to charge immediately or I will loose my data. I checked and don't have any extra programs running that are not usually running. Have you tested to see if notifications causes this much battery usage? Has anyone else had this problem? I will try disabling notifications and see if the battery usage improves. I didn't have a battery problem before. I will let you know.

Again, thanks for your great app.

Rick
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Westronics:
Where is te information to display "Flight Mode" coming from? My 700WX (Sprint) still has issues with displaying "Flight Mode" all the time if the phone has been turned off anytime since the last reset.

I'd like to track this one down and see if I can fix it - I am sure it is device specific.

I am assuming there is a flag somewhere that is not properly resetting - perhaps a registry entry?

If I knew where to look, perhpas I could write a little script to force-reset the flag properly.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] redz1234:
A_C .. Thanks for the quick response. I read that thread and understood why this was happening with incoming calls. I guess it would be safe to assume it would be happening on calendar/task etc etc notifications also?

Thanks again for all your efforts. I'm sending a donation your way also. Keep up the great work.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] VandyCWG:
woohoo

Finally, I can use this on my Treo700wx again!

Also, the flight mode bug is present on mine...I put mine into flight mode, and when I came back to celluar mode, the signal bars no longer display on my S2U screen, it just says flight mode.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] darufryda5:
just tried this out on my apache 6700...and it works fine for me..
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Westronics:
Right - this really does appear to be a Treo 700WX issue.

Now if we can only figure out what triggers the "flight mode" display for S2U2, then maybe we can fix this for the Treop 700WX.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] :
works excellent on my phone! Pity there is no large today icon!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] perasite:
If it is OK with A_C, I'll throw together a Today line that allows you to lock your phone using S2U2. Once he chimes in I'll get to work on it. Hopefully I can pull it together this weekend.

SPRINT AND FLIGHT MODE:

i get that when i installed the new version as well but a simple soft reset made it disappear and never has come on since :P
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] VandyCWG:
a soft reset fixed the flight mode issue...

but at least the major issue, the power management issue is back in this version.....i am just happy to have this back!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] DVS_WiNdz:
works great.. thanks
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] :
That would be excellent! This is the only aspect of this lovely app that was annoying ie. going into start menu to lock the phone without using the on/off button. If you can help and create a small / or large icon lock for today screen that would be excellent! Perhaps release 0.51 of this app together?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] ytsejam_:
well i use the HTCHOME plugin app launcher tab on my Wizard and iLauncher on my WM5 Blue angel to handle that..

i add slide.exe as one of the shortcuts..

another shortcut icon on those mentioned today screen launcher plugins won't hurt, will it?

anyway.. a new line dedicated for s2u2 is not bad either.. the only drawback is, 1-line plugins are not finger friendly and takes a hefty of space on the today screen given its only function is to toggle slide.exe on..

but for those who don't use a today screen launcher, the plugin will be a big help.. hope A_C approves it..

@A_C

hi there, i think i found the reason why my device won't wake up after it s2u kicks in in sleep mode.. i HARD RESET my Wizard and BA to isolate s2u2 as the sole installed program.. the only changes i made were the s2u2 settings (changed to the settings i normally use) via a .reg file and replaced the wallpaper.jpg and wallpaperL.jpg with my own usual image..

same problem occured.. both device won't wake up unless power button is pressed (in the case of the BA with a defective power button, reset hole is poked)

given that, i changed the registry settings with those you recommended.. NoPowerSuspend=1 and Safemode=1..

still same results..

i hard reset again, installed s2u2, changed settings via the reg file, but this time, i didn't replace the wallpaper.jpg and wallpaperL.jpg with my custom images.. the problem seemed to lessen because the sleep-lock symptom did not occur as often as with my customized wallpaper.jpg. now, when i press on buttons long enough or many times enough, s2u2 will sometimes get out of sleep and activates the screen..

what i did is i made a smaller wallpaper.jpg.. a blank white, 320x240 image that is 150bytes only.. i replaced the default with that.. and viola.. the sleep-screen-lock problem went away.. so i guess it was a problem with the image background..

i reduced the quality of my custom wallpaper.jpg from 40kb to 8kb, and the problem went away too.. the problem is, the image looks bad.. Ü
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] whisper:
Hmm, using 0.5 for a few days now... Seems my battery runs out of energy a lot faster (okay - not like with the first S2U version, but still).

The notifications could be the problem - don't know how A_C implemented this in the software - what I mean is this; is it checking on timeinterval for new sms/calendar options? Or just on startup - or something like that?

Just thinkin' out loud - forgive me if it sounds silly :rolleyes:
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] :
Well what might be nice then is if the like that is added to the today screen could also add other shortcuts as well and change their size.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] gobmonster:
hay, i feel the same way, battery life feels like it is going faster, looks like i will have to put s2u2 in suspend mode rather than having it sleep the backlight
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] justincredible:
this is a great program! i have a few questions though....

are the notification bubbles supposed to override the S2u2? for example im using an apauly eten dialer on my mogul and when recieving an incoming call it pops up over my s2u2...samething with text(sms threaded) ill get the preview message while im still on the slide screen...

also im having a problem with my appts. showing...i have the registry value set to 1 but still nothing...anyone else having these kinds of issues?

thank you in advance!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] chrismrulz:
the problem is that s2u2.exe is run when you press the suspend button the first time, not when you press it again to wake it up.

when your pocket pc is in suspend mode, it's actually still running the os. just in a low-profile mode.

so what's happening is that s2u2 is running graphics and constantly using cpu etc. which would use up a bit of battery.

if you use a tool like mymobiler you can witness slide2unlock running when you press the suspend button.

should be pretty easy to fix. A_C will probably have a fix for it soon so don't be too worried.

@people wanting a today plugin: google for a 'launcher' today plugin. there are many available.

you should be able to just add a shortcut to s2u2.exe from there, and customize the icon and size etc..

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] generalriden:
yeah i know and thanks for that. we love it. now just a little of editing if u dont mind ;)

if we can help to create more. if u want i will be the one to change color fonts and do more fonts, if it is fine with u?

we would like to have more option in fonts style of the clock and A_C will just focus on upgrading/modifying/fixing bugs of this program.

Sir A_C , is this clock png file editing fine with you?

v0.52

Just updated to v0.52, pls read the 1st post for details.

(hope it's ready for developing the next steps... )

Q. S2U2 consumes too much power?

A. Since v0.5, the power consumption is much lower than previous version & even lower than S2U. It's now directly related to how often you play it & how often the various info on the screen need to be refresh. But in the sense of "on-demand" rather than polling with a fixed period of time.

Q. No Today plugin or short-cut?

A. As there are a lot 3rd party s/w that did this job very well, pls try to find them instead.

@Maiisoh

I'm also a big fan of SPB products, but I didn't experience your problem with those SPB products when S2U2 is running... and now it even works with SPB Time (which has problem with S2U in the past).

@ytsejam_

Thanks for your testing. Yes, the size of wallpaper.jpg & wallpaperL.jpg did affect S2U2. Pls make sure they are the same size (pixel) of your device & 16-bit color depth is enough.

@generalriden

The files under GFX folder are opened to be modified, pls go ahead. :)

@sanman

Pls provide more details, I don't understand what your "not work" mean.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Westronics:
Alas, I still have the "Flight Mode" issue with my Treo 700WX.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] sanman:
A-C - SMS notification is now showing once I installed the most recent version. Have worked out the problem with blankscreen etc. I wanted to switch off the screen (only) after a certain amount of time. Worked out that I needed to have IdleStart enabled as well as BlankScreen & OffLCD.

All is well. Thanks Mate.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] ytsejam_:
thanks for the confirmation A_C.. what puzzles me, is i've been using the same qvga (320x240) 40kb (high quality) wallpaper.jpg (the same image that makes my devices go comatose) since slide2unlock 1.19 without problem.. but i've only experienced the effects of its size when i shifted to s2u2 0.5

anyway.. i'm going to try 0.52 now, and check it.. thanks A_C..

Could you dump the registry details under \HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\State\Phone\ when 1) the phone is on; 2) the flight mode is on?

As there is not much "text" within this app, I think that's not necessary. :)
