I'm sorry to say that I've disabled the edit button cause with the changes I've done to the xml, it's really dificult to change the older config app to make it compatible with them... I'm planning a full rewrite of the config app to we more usable... Will be released soon ;).

Thanks for the SD card tip... I'll modify the cab files of 0.7 release ASAP.

Thanks!

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] APBilbo:
I've found the date issue myself an hour ago when starting the app.... It seems that after first painting the background is cleared so it only paints when update is needed... :(... Try adding secconds to date and everything else... you'll find out that it does paint when the secconds are updated... I'll try to solve all the issues regarding this new release in 0.7a update.

About the today plugins, are you trying them inside the today plugin or inside the main app?... I'm sorry to say that the today plugin can't contain (for now) other today plugins, all tries to do so ended on device freeeeezzee ;). I'll try to have for next release but I can't promiss nothing cause I don't know what's exactly happening.

By the way, I don't know if you've seen it but you can currently filter the files from a directory by pattern. I think that was a feature you requested...

<folder zoom="1" path="HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Explorer\CrossPlatformNavigationURL" pattern="*.lnk" recursive="True" name="Programs" />

Thanks for the feedback!!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] v3patel:
Thank you for new enhancement

Yes I nolitces that but right now i am in process to conver my existing config.xml to work with new Version to display like this which was working fine with older version video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rHroVkT8lb0 but since all icons are moved and new paraeter it is like more work needed for cusomt config.

New enhancement request if icon file does not exists then it does not display shortcut. is there any way to parameter or getting it to load with default icon.

By the great work with contacts. I have not yet enought time to play around it but to me they stored in registry as and not on profile based?is it true?

How do i get transparent backgraoung with this code

<folder name="abcd" zoom="1" path="\windows" pattern="*.lnk" recursive="True" >

forget to tell you i am trying load today's plug in into main app.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] APBilbo:
Wow... too much questions there, hehehe ;). One by one:

- Sorry for your screwed config.xml... I've tryed to do the changes back compatible... but obiously they are not :(... If you need some more help I'll be glad to help you..

- If you don't specify the path parameter for the icons it should load the icon associated with the exec file. Only drawback is that it will not zoom the icon... :(.

- The contacts are "marked" using a category "ThrottlePhotoDialer".

- To use trasparent background you should specify a texture on your main skin (the one used by the whole config.xml). Also you must specify <param name="trasparency" value="true"/> on the skin asociated with the row if any or in the main config skin.

If you have some

Error with Today Plugins

Mornin'

I tried it with your new ThrottleLibrary.dll and i got en error now (previously not).

It seems that the program cannot find "TDLTools2.dll" allthough it is in the same directory as the main program.

see enclosed screenshot.

"wurde nicht gefunden" means "was not found"

My setup: Mainprogram, SetupXMLs and SKINFolder in "\Programme\ThrottleLauncher", All ICONS on SD Card.

Regards R
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] APBilbo:
Good morning! ;)

I was allmost sure that it was going to be that :P... Please, can you try copying your TLDTools2.dll to Windows folder? Maybe there the app can find it...
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] ridingshark:
Sorry to disappoint you .. Copied dll to \Windows .... same error.

I then thought maybe the DLL is not registered.

I started Regsvr.exe to register the dll, pointed onto your TDTools2.dll and then i clicked "Register" .. Then an error returned: Cannot Register, module not found.

I guess the DLL is corrupt as it cannot be found (or lets say identified as "the" DLL).

Hope that helps.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] APBilbo:
I don't know what can be happening.... On my device it works perfectly... Anyone else has today plugins working inside the main app, or is just "my luck"...

Edit: the Manila default installed theme (the default one after you install 0.7 release) is supposed to show the BatteryStatus plugin on ThrottleLauncher.exe

Thanks!!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] APBilbo:
Hi v3patel,

{

i finally found what's wrong with your setup ;). The attribute for the font color is "textcolor" and not "fontcolor" (look on the quoted text), sorry for the strange name in oposition to fonttype....

}

edit: forget all between the brackets... :o... you are right, is fontcolor, the thing is that transparency is achieved by setting to trasparent the rowbackcolor especified on the xml... this means that everything with that color will become trasparent. On the default manila theme the "Manila Trasparent" skin uses 255,255,255 as trasparent, so that's why your font's arent shown.... sorry. Just change it to 254,254,254, no body is going to see the diference ;).

/edit

By the way, the today plugin issue is solved (pending for the confirmation of anyone with the having the bug), see this post:

http://www.throttlelauncher.com/forum/showpost.php?p=16&postcount=3

Please if you find some other problem or everything works fine, send feedback...

edit2:

I forgot!! On this new cab you also have the possibility to perform multi pattern filtering (pattern="*.exe,*.lnk"...Also files will be ordered by name.

Thanks!!!!

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] ridingshark:
Hello Alfonso and all other TL lovers!

I found out one bug in installation and how to get rid of the DLLs in main Memory.

Thats how it works:

1) Alfonso: the _setup.xml in CAB file sets a wrong Install Path.

<parm name="DLL" value="%InstallDir%\ThrottleToday.dll" datatype="string" translation="install" should be "%CE2%".

Means: You have to go to Registry after installation HKLM/Software/Microsoft/Today/Items/ThrottleToday and change the "DLL" from your install DIR to "\Windows\ThrottleToday.dll". Alfonso moved the DLL to \Windows and that is good (its very small).

2) How to move the huge DLLs for the Today Plugin Handling:

Go to registry HKLM\Loader and edit "System Path". Add e.g. "\Storage Card\DLL\" or you can also add "\Storage Card\Programs\ThrottleLaucher\", whatever, but it is imortant that all the backslashes (also at end) are there!!!

Now you go to \Windows and move following DLLs to this Folder that you added to System Path (create first, of course):

atl80.dll

MFC80U.DLL

msvcr80.dll

But leave ThrottleToday.dll at "\Windows"!

(If you remove the Storage Card and forgett about this, you will crash!)

You save about 1MB.

Alfonso: I would put this 3 DLLs in a seperate SETUP File, so the user can install them if he wants to use the TodayPlugin Handling feature. And after installing a new version you always have to remove the DLLs again from "\Windows".

In addition you can therafter move every DLL for every Programm to this new Folder and the system will find it as you added the path to Registry.

Thereafter --> SOFTRESET Device (Registry has to be loaded again)

Then it works.

I now have installed EVERYTHING on the Storage Card. Only the ThrottleToday.dll is at "\Windows"

Thanks Alfonso for this great feature!!

Today plugin trouble

This looks like a great app, but I've been struggling for a week now to get the today plugin to work. I have tried installing it on the storage card and main memory. I have the tody dll in windows dir and changed the registry key as per instructions. I have tried several configs but without success.

Questions:

1) Does anyone have a config file with a working today plugin to share with me?

2) From my understanding the plugin name in the config file should be exactly as in the registry. Some of my registry plugins are encased in qutotation marks and some not. Should they all be in quotation marks in the config file?

3) In the config.exe program, you set the today's and the main's app's config file separately. Should they be the same or what does these two buttons do?

4) What does the program throtteTodayPlugin.exe do except showing a messagebox saying "Desktop"?

I would really like to make this work with TodayAgenda, but have been unable to so far. I noticed that this program doesn't store the dll in the windows folder. Does that make a difference?

Any help would be greatly appreciated. :)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] APBilbo:
Do you have installed the 0.7a Alpha "release"? You can get it here

http://www.throttlelauncher.com/forum/showpost.php?p=16&postcount=3

After today plugins should work but the today plugin of throttlelauncher would not :-S.....follow steps posted by ridingshark (specially the registry modification) to restore the TLToday plugin and to free some space from your device.

http://www.throttlelauncher.com/foru...21&postcount=6

Remember also that today plugin's are only supported inside the main app (ThrottleLauncher.exe) and not inside the todayplugin itself.

Hope it works ;-).
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] ajige:
Yes I've done all of the above without success. I can have throttlelauncher as a today plugin and it works just fine. But the TodayAgenda doesn't show up when throttlelauncher.exe is launched, even if I have it in the config file. I assume the throttlelauncher uses the config file specified under main app in the config.exe file?

I guess I should just leave TodayAgenda on the Today screen and have a smaller Throttle on the Today screen.

Also I've tried to make the clock row such that it can slide like the other rows, but it doesn't work. Is that at all possible?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] APBilbo:
Mmmm.... Have you tried with another plugin? Just to know if it's an installation problem or another thing... Can you post also your config.xml file here please?

About the clock thing... i don't understand very well what you mean.... The clock is as anyother element, if it's contained in a row that is scrollable and widther than the screen it will scroll... theorically ;).
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] JamesAllen:
Clock Row

The clock row can scroll like any other row. Here are two examples of my single row Throttle Today Plugin that scrolls.

Can We have Bluetooth on off button on the today screen of Our device. I wish if there is anything in it as We have it in Pocket Max phonealarm 1.66[which I bought few weeks back]

I had to uninstall it because of its battery sucking disadvantage. Thanx allover for the nice app mate. Keep up the good work.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] APBilbo:
Hi!

Instead of using

<folder zoom="1" path="HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Explorer\CrossPlatformNav igationURL" pattern="*.lnk" recursive="True" name="Programs" />

Try using this one changing the path accordingly to your ROM languaje:

<folder zoom="1" path="\Windows\Start Menu\Programs" pattern="*.lnk" recursive="True" name="Programs" />

About the plugin thing... I've not tried those plugins you're including... Have you tried using anyother proved plugin like "HTC Home" or "BatteryStatus"?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] APBilbo:
Thanks for the feedback! Bluetooth switch and many others (like metters and other similar stuff) are planned to be implemented as ThirdParty plugins.

About the "battery sucking" thing, it's probably due to the clock updating every seccond, wich makes the CPU work a little bit. I'm working in an optimization for this and for the memory usage for next release by a "full rewritte" of the code. I can say that next release will be way better ;-). Till then, if you want the throttle and think it's battery ussage it's high, what can be done is either use a digital clock without seconds (will update only every minute, and the painting it's almost trivial for the CPU) or do not use the clock in throttle and use other plugins like rltoday.... Or even use your watch :D, hehehe

Thanks!!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] APBilbo:
Awesome work man! Installed it and working perfectly ;-). The only drawback imo is the nonstandar size (at least on my phone) of the pictures on the dialer...

Thanks a lot!!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] ajige:
I have tried this, it still doesn't work.

I don't have these programs installed, and would rather avoid installing them, but I have tried several of the plugins (ie. "Owner Info", "Device Lock" "TodayAgenda", "Weather To Go"), and none work.

New Question: I have the next appointment showing up on my Todayscreen, but if I include the time, and there is no appointment either today or tomorrow, it crashes.

Also is it possible to combine two text items into one line. (So I could have the time and text for the next appointment on one line?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] APBilbo:
Finally I've found it out... It seems like there's a bug with the "pattern" attribute, just remove it and your programs will show...

Thanks for reporting the appointment issue.... I'll try to fix it ASAP. You can add as much text as you want ;). The ~ character means "new line" so just remove it...

Thanks
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] ajige:
Thanks

:)Thanks for figuring out the programs pattern. Now that part works great!

A new question: I have on my today screen a scrollable row, with the analog clock being the first item, then new items, then programs. When I go back to the today screen, it goes to the end of the row - showing programs, and not showing the clock as I would prefer. I guess I could put that last, but was wondering if there is a way to show first items first?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] JamesAllen:
Also Saw This

I also saw this and just chalked it up to software at an early stage in development and something I could live with. I got in the habit of scrolling the row to show the clock whenever I returned to the Today screen.

Your solution may work. Let me know if it does.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] APBilbo:
I'm glad it worked ;). About your question... the row is supposed to keep the scrolling position, so if you click an icon openning an app and latter on you go back to throttle the rows should be placed exactly the same. The only particular case is the start up, in this case the rows will be centered. Now, what's your request? to have the rows go back to it first element every time you activate the app?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] APBilbo:
Ok! I've been thinking arround it.... I'll try to have it for next relase. ;)
