Analog Clock problem please help!

Ok I had the old s2u2 with the mogul and I had no problems, unfortunately now I cannot get the clocks to work. Im running windows 6.0 on a touch and I simply download the clock pack and s2u2 0.99p. Zip the s2u2 to a cab and install. When I do that the analog clock works but has no hands!And of course none of the other clocks work including the normal clock. now I install the clock pack, Unzip them then copy them to there matching folders. Then ran s2u2 and nothing so then a soft reset and still nothing. by nothing I mean still no hands on the analog and no other ones work. Help I love this basic program but everytime I look at it without the clocks I wanna take it off. Same with the vclockA file but now its a huge clock with no hands.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] kaneelias:
Hi, i have had a few issues with the clock that i have sorted out through trial and error, firstly i could only get the clocks from the clock pack to work if installed them into the clock/ folder, none of the others, secondly i know it may sound basic but remember to change the S2u2 settings once you have killed S2u2 with ilock, otherwise the settings will not be saved. I get it to work by running ilock, run s2u2 settings and change the clock folder to any but the one i want (clock/), save that and then go back into the settings and select the clock u want (clock/).

This has worked for me and i have been able to use clocks from HTC Customizer (the Alien one) by just renaming the files to the same as in the clock folder and then pasting them to clock/

Works a treat
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] kaneelias:
I guess you could say its horses for courses, the whole point is ease of locking, if you don't lock your phone then dont worry. I keep my phone in my pocket alot and need it to be locked, if i use the windows today plug in to lock i have to lock the phone then press power to turn the screen off, then put my stylus away, with S2u2, i just press the power button and my phone is locked and the screen is off also as a bonus if i forget to lock it, when the backlight goes out it does it for me, the WM lock today plug in cant do that

another reason is because i can unlock my phone with my finger rather than pulling out my stylus, i have set up my phone so nealy all my navagation can be done without a stylus, it is extremely hard to unlock a touch screen phone with your finger if you use the lock plugin from WM on your today screen, well it is for me anyway.

I love this program and its ease of use.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] yusufjee:
So this is what i want, tell me if it is do able. I want my phone to activate S2U2 when the backlight goes off but i dont want it to go into sleep mode. I only want it locked through S2U2 i love that but i dont want that extra step of waking it up using the power button. Is there any registry entry for this or any other setting?

Secondly, i set the backlight to go off after 10 seconds from the windows mobile setting menu now i dont want S2U2 to take over from here instead i want S2U2 to wait for another 20 seconds (30 seconds in total) before it takes over. Is there any setting for that??

To be honest i hate the "phone going off and pressing the power button to wake it up" feature maybe there is a way to disable that feature altogether.

Any help would offcourse be greatly appreciated.

i've got a small but annoying bug here. the htc weather is not shown with correct values and icon on lock screen.

i patched the htc dll to allow downloading weather data of additional citys in germany. the weather is shown correctly in HTC Today Plugin but not at S2U2.

btw: i only patched the download url for data. nothing more.

any idea how to fix it?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] junior11:
Thanks kaneelias I got it working. I made a stupid mistake under time format it was on setting 3 which leaves the time blank. As soon as I changed that I got all the clocks to work(including the digital ones).
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] emay:
First of all you can set your device to wake up on any keypress. Look in settings-system-keylock. there you set: do not lock buttons.

In your power settings you can tell your device to never turn off, but your backlight settings can tell your device to turn off the backlight.

Maybe these settings get you where you want.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] yusufjee:
In my HTC touch there is no option to "never turn off device", in backlight only option is to turn the backlight off after given seconds. I mean i have been through settings and forums but seems like "no power off" option or "no suspend" option is nowhere to be found. That is the reason i was asking for maybe some registry tweak would help.

EDIT: Also in S2U2 settings there is an option newar the bottom "Dont Suspend Power" i have it enabled but seems ineffective, perhaps the utility maker himself can shed some light.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] coney718:
Ok I got S2U2 to work with regular images. Im trying to use gif files, I followed the steps but its still not working. All I get is the black screen. I tried to change the registry but im not sure if im doing it right (im a noob when it comes to registry changes) My Direct Draw says 4 b, is that normal? I thought it was supposed to be 1. I click on it and the value is at 945678 or something like that. I change that to 0 and exit out. but when I go back in its changed back to the orginal number. is there a button to click to save? I go restart ilock2 but still get the black screen? Im using Total Commander if that helps

Edit- Got it working now. I didnt even have to do all that registry stuff. All I did was put the gif image in my pics folder on my device and use S2V to set it as wallpaper and that was it. Works great.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Kasush:
Start -> Settings -> System Tab -> Power -> Advanced Tab -> uncheck both "turn off device after X minutes" boxes. Now your phone will never turn off until you manually turn it off, as a side note say goodbye to battery life.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] yusufjee:
Thanks i will check it out.

The suspend power refers to when you have active sync running and S2U2 initiates, it will kill active sync, so do not suspend power will allow active sync to keep running even if S2U2 initiates.

how to stop S2U2 locking when my event reminder popup

Hi,

I am using HTC Tilt (htc 8900). I installed S2U2 app and was very impressed by that. I had set some alarms in my phone and mapped the alarm ring to a song, the alarm notification pop-up comes up at the right time but the song ends very soon because s2u2 locks the phone and powers off the phone after 16 sec's(that's what i set) - when the phone is auto locked by s2u2 the song stops. I know that i have to add the exe file for this notification pop-up in the s2u2 exception list. I tried adding clock.exe and calender.exe but they didn't work. I think i was not able to find the right exe file.

I spent couple of days figuring out how to resolve this issue but finally gave up. Can anyone out there help me.

Thanks in advance,

Kiran
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] chinhungchin:
Dear A_C,

Great app! I am using it on my 2 devices: HTC ELF and LG KS-20. I had S2U2 installed and found out the following which happens on both of the devices:

- when talk on the phone for more than 20 secs (after screen is turned off) and tried to end the call by pressing the end-call button continuously for more than 5-sec, it will freeze the machine. I love the app and can live with this issue. Just wanna share with you and will be happy to help you to test out more.

(Additional information, after machine freezed, the call is not end. I can still continue the call until I soft-reset.)

Cheers!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] geovass:
Very Nice Application! Well done!

One issue... i cant make the weather plug in active. I am using spb traveler. Is there a way to active the weather forecast with S2U2 ?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] syrguy1969:
Sorry, but no....you need the full weather app. The mini versions included with Traveler and Shell don't work with S2U2.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] geovass:
Thanks, i thought so! Just installed the Full Version :-)

I will give it a try soon!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] theshaz:
How can you change the activation delay?

I just installed it. Works great.

How can I change the time it take to start the screen saver? Becasue right now it's like 8-10 seconds.

Other than that it looks great. Got some pics in folder and it's working good.

Thanks

Maybe it's been discussed in the last 216 pages, but I can't find the answer; I have the program Spb Backup set in the registry as one of the exceptions, but it's not working automatically (when S2U2 is engaged). Any solution.

Hello

How I can tempory turn on display until talk?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] lmart1n:
I installed the s2u2 0.99p ... but got the problem, after i "locked" the phone with s2u2, then after a time the display shut off - everything is fine.

But then... when i wake up the display, s2u2 is not shown on the screen... just my Today screen.

What's the problem?

Best regards from Germany...

sorry for my English.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] DCHigley:
I have had SPB Backup running for years on a schedule and S2U2 has never stopped it from running. I don't have it in the exception list or anything else like that. It just runs when the schedule hits and goes as long as it is plugged in at the scheduled time (SPB seting - Nothing to do with S2U2).

Check your SPB settings. I have never had a conflict here at all.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] DCHigley:
Probably a stupid question... But... :)

Do you have the Lock when device wakes up set to on in the settings? It is the first thing in the list.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] lmart1n:
of course ....

but there's no difference if on or off... after configuration I always soft reset the device.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] lmart1n:
I found out, the s2u2 works fine if i enable safe mode, but I don't know what it does.

But in Safemode the time is not displayed..

do you have any idea how to fix my problem?

CallerID questions

hi

two questions about callerid enhancements / changes:

- would be nice to have the line# nfo displayed.

my sim has 2 lines available and the standard callerid shows line#1 or line#2 to be able to distinguish between incoming calls on line#1 or #2.

- most callerid pics have the head / face of the calling person at the top :) so... could an option be added to display the callerid-info at the bottom of the screen?

and one for htc-weather-display:

- is it possible to show the current weather (esp. temp) together with the forcast for today?

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Alkhal:
Check the settings. Assign S2U2 to a button and just press the button when you want it to lock and have it set to not lock unless you press that button.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] NiteStalker:
There is also a "TODAY" plugin available, just search for "S2U2 Today".
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] NiteStalker:
If it works in safe mode, but not regular startop, it is possible you have something else conflicting with the program. Since you have a safemode, I'm also speculating your problem is going to be with SPB Mobile Shell 2.0.

You might need to go the the thread/forum of the oter programs you are running and search them to see if others are having similar problems, if you are running shell, the answer will be somewhere on spbclub.com
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] lmart1n:
Got it....

SPB Shell works fine.. tried everything but the problem was still there...

The problem was BatterStatus Extended V. 1.04...

I have had to uncheck "Show Today Screen after wake up".

Problem unlocking s2u2

Hello

Do someone has the same problem as I have ?

I always have to unlock S2U2 two times.

Whe I first slide to unlock, it freezes 1 or 2 seconds and then S2U2 appears again. I slide, and this time it unlocks well, but I ALWAYS have to slide once, wait 2 seconds and then slide again.

Anyone knows how to solve it , please?

It happens since 0.97, I updated to 0.99p but it´s the same

Eten M600+ Windows mobile 5

Thank you all in advance
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] iruja:
The app is stil way bugged on the E-ten x800;

- pictures get blown up to fit VGA, and don't look sharp at all

- when getting an incoming call, while the slider is still active, and the backlight screen turns off, the speaker turns off as well, thus not being able to hear people.

- x800 turns itself off as it thinks it's out of battery power randomly.

both x800 and m800 suffor from this, in fact so much I decided to uninstall this piece of software once again.

Works great on the E-ten x500 btw, none of the problems mentioned above, but it's qVGA and has an lder version of wm6, same chipset though.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pt_t830:
Proceed like this:

Create registry key UserWeather (STRING) under \HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\A_C\S2U2

The format is "icon|index|high temp|low temp" where icon is S, P or W (Spb Weather, Pocket Weather or Weather Panel)

And then:

If you have installed Spb Weather, Weather Panel or Pocket Weather, the current day's weather can be shown by set the key "ShowWeather" under \HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\A_C\S2U2 to:

1 show data from SPBWeather;

2 from WeatherPanel;

3 from PocketWeather;

4 from UserWeather;

5 from HTC Home Plugin

0 to disable

Have fun...

power button turn display off like S2U2

My device cannot stay in sleep mode, because have GSM issues. No rom actualization for it. Its Gigabyte G-Smart. So how i can mapp power button to turn screen off only, without suspend mode and lock device in the same time when i turn screen off? Like S2U2???
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Atze001:
Hello A_C

i tried Version 0.95 the last night.

First Problem ist the green phone button. In S2U2 0.85 is the green button deaktivated but now you can answer a call with this button. Please please correct this cause if an call is incoming and i pull out my phone of his pocket its answering the call cause the green button was pressed.

I would like this version and if its not correctet i must go back to 0.85 :(

Second the weather diplay. I use HTC Home Weather and s2u2 diplay the wrong temperature and no pics from wheater.

For future versions:

-the possibility to change the time that the gif animation was playing? (without charging)

-an option in s2u2 settings to choose directly a wallpaper

Go on with your great work!! You are the best!!!

For me s2u2 is the importants software on my phone.!!!

I still don't have a slider bar...and im using touch flo so when I slide my finger the whole screen just goes away......help
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] syrguy1969:
I am not too familiar with touch flo, but I think you have to make touch flo an exception in the regestry for it to not 'swipe' the screen away.

opps....reverse that....make S2U2 an exception in touch flo's reg. sorry (it is only a theory on my part though)!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Atze001:
Go to your touchflo folder and edit yout ftouchfloconfig.txt

add

to your ; Exclude applications

then touchflo dont work if s2u2 is on top.

what line are you modifying in the lang.ini file and what's the exact path you are using.. copy and paste the line you are modifying

Edit: you can't point to a folder with a bunch of .gif files since those can only be used one at a time and you can not have S2U2 cycle through them automatically as it would take too much time to load and I think that option has been disabled for .gif... the directory option only works to point to a folder with a bunch of .jpg files

Go into the WeatherPanel settings, and the screen where you select the cities....make sure your home city is on top. (I see you said '2nd city', but I would just make sure) If your home city is on top, I would go to the data file, delete all the files, and do an update. If your home city still doesn't show after a fresh update, I would go back to the settings screen, and move your home city to second place on the list.
