[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Andro1dism:
Is there a way to re-calibrate the battery so that it at least shows 20% of power and not 50% ?

Besides: How can I "avoid some of the power-downs" with a reboot?!
[Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 2 days:
But. . . . . . . There are buttons in Flashtool to do what you want
[MTCB Hardware Development] CaptShaft:
Hi folks, I had earlier cobbled together a way for battery power to be constantly supplied to the Radio via a second battery and battery isolator device. You can see what i speak of here: https://xdaforums.com/android-auto/...iliary-batter-battery-isolator-radio-t3417196

This is a bit drawn out and expensive, but I put it out there for those that are looking for a direct solution.

Here are other ideas which will work fine instead with less screwing around:

12V DELAY TIMER SWITCH 30 SECONDS SUPPLY MODULE - 10 amps @ 28v DC (?)

https://www.itead.cc/wiki/12V_DELAY_TIMER_SWITCH_30_SECONDS_SUPPLY_MODULE - $10.70

* MZL-10 Delay Timer - 12v 30 amp - Starts timing when ignition turns off

http://www.acdcind.com/mzl-10-delay-timer.html - $72.55

* Powerwerx DC Automatic Power Switch/Timer - 25 amps @ 12V DC

https://powerwerx.com/automatic-dc-timer-power-switch - $69.99

(I've used a Powerwerx battery isolator on the previous project and it works well, no complaints.)

* GERI Newer Version 12V Multifunction Relay Cycle Timer Module - Programmable with Customized Settings (Increased to 18 Modes) - 10 amps @ 28v DC (?)

https://www.amazon.com/Newer-Version-Multifunction-Relay-Module/dp/B00VR1F3LC/ - $15.80

(I have this but haven't tinkered with this yet.)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tFTVXJpWJQ4 <-- Here it is in action, all 18 functions demonstrated. I think you'd want program #10. http://goo.gl/5WU8Lf <-- Official manual, in chinglish. :-/

Also, maybe:

Power Disconnect Timer:

http://www.poweringthenetwork.com/power-timer/ $$?????

Any of the above would be a good deal for keeping power to the radio while starting the car, and briefly keeping power on while, say, running into the store to get something quick. Great for avoiding annoying reboots while doing quick errands.

Note that will all of the above you'll have a small trickle amount of standby current going to the module. Something to keep in mind.

Any questions?
[MTCB Hardware Development] jakejm79:
I guess this depends on your car, with my car during cranking the radio stays on, also most MCUs allow you to set up to a 2 hour delay for standby. So from stock it covers everything you need with no additional wiring or any other parts.
[MTCB Hardware Development] CaptShaft:
Noted, it does indeed depend on the car. On my car, while cranking all power to the radio was cut, so my old Pumpkin radio with the RK3188 CPU would do a 30-second reboot every time I turned the car off. If I just ran into the store for 5 minutes, or briefly dropped by a friends place to pick something up... another reboot!

And there was positively zero in the system settings or MCU settings for standby mode or anything of the like.

So other options had to be explored, like these above or the 2nd battery with the isolator unit.

It's sad we have to cobble together other workarounds to deal with the limitations of this older technology, but "that’s the breaks" as the older generation would say...
[MTCB Hardware Development] jakejm79:
Maybe try looking for a newer MCU? Also you could just tap into a wire that doesn't get cut during cranking (but does when the car is off) for the red ACC wire in the radio loom, IME the radios are pretty acceptable of low voltage during cranking from the draw from the starter so no other mods necessary.
[MTCB Hardware Development] CaptShaft:
Depends again on the radio and the car. The radio may or may not cooperate in this affair, even with an MCU upgrade.

I wrote about some solutions here earlier:

https://xdaforums.com/android-auto/...iliary-batter-battery-isolator-radio-t3417196

Here's the straightforward illustration.

The problem with this is if you forget to turn off the radio your battery can go dead. So a manual switch on the ACC line is an option.

Or a switch on a timer, like I show above.

It'd be nice if the radio manufacturers had a large, say, 1000uF capacitor thrown into the back of the head unit enclosure to prevent it from timing out, but that's extra pennies per unit and all that.
[MTCB Hardware Development] edibar:
Hi,

i have the same problem here, if i go for 5 minutes away from the car it dont shutsdown. so far so good. But when i get back in the car and cranking up the engine the usb 3g Stick stops working. i think its because of the very short powerloss when cranking. that way it dont restarts itself and is then is stuck in some kind of preboot or just hangs somwhere. if have to disconnect the 3g stick and then it takes a minute to get back to normal. anyone got a solution? maybe some kind of capacitor on the powercable to the usb stick? or one of the mentioned delay switches? Thanks!
[MTCB Hardware Development] marchnz:
Consider two options -

External - fit diode and capacitor to ACC power line. This is described elsewhere in the forums with instructions and component values.

Internal - solder capacitor (value approx 47uf 25v) to internal acc line zener diode anode side of ACC line. - view schematic in my sig to deduce how to do this.

Both options use a capacitor to delay turn off when cranking
[MTCB Hardware Development] oVeRdOsE.:
thread bump.

I just got a android unit (mtce) for an audi A4. OEM radio got a ''no key radio ON'' feature. (about 1hr)

I'm looking to get this feature back, in that exact sequence :

Starting with radio ON and Engine ON

1- Stop engine, remove keys

2- headunit shut-down immediatly

3- Press power button (in that case a timer button), headunit ON for 1hr.

All these devices are almost what I'm looking for, but the step No2...

I need a kind of external button to power ON the headunit with no keys, independently from the ingnition key.

possible? arduino project?

With the latest 7.1.1 release of Nougat from ZTE that includes Tmo Wi-Fi calling. Is their any chance that the built in wifi calling baked into Android can be activated now? It didn't work on many models, but I know that the nexus/Pixels had it on the custom roms. All I've ever had (until now) were Tmobile versions of phones. Anybody have any knowledge as to which case this phone falls under?

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] FloatingFatMan:
I have to ask; do you guys actually have permission from the PointUI team to release this, or is it an illicit hack?

If it's the latter... I can appreciate you really want it in your language, but were I one of the devs, I'd be absolutely livid.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] bjken3:
Well, to the best of my knowledge, the simple answer is "no"

efsane is not affiliated with the makers of Pointui.

Sadly I have to say download at your own risk.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] dorothyg07:
Even better please remove this.

If you downloaded this, goodluck with the old version. We're fixing bugs and making improvements every day.

We understand you're keen but I don't know why you're bothering, we are working on the internationalisation. The forum will soon have a list of words we'd like people to translate.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] efsane:
You don’t understand that I was just try to improve it, not hack. I don’t think I did anything wrong! I just translated the program into Turkish so it would be able to arrive to more users. In fact you need to thank me, but you don’ t! Every program can be improved or corrected.

This my hobby.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] FloatingFatMan:
It's also, technically, software piracy. You're releasing software you have no right too. You may not be charging, and it may be free anyway, but that doesn't mean you can edit it and do what you want to it.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] efsane:
software piracy ! hahahah.much nonsense.please to remove topic. Here much of poor quality member existent
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] primesuspect:
Shake it off... its called being innovative....There is a way to say it with out being a total * I mean look at the forums your are on (talking to one of the DEVS...Granted I like the product but it does need work
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] FloatingFatMan:
What? Want to try that again, in English? I don't have a clue what you're trying to say...
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Klael:
The title of this subforum is: "Development an Hacking"

So if it is normal to hack any version of Windows Mobile, which is a commercial software, why it is a piracy to improve a buggy and free software?

If you do not want to use this version, please do not disturb others. Its your choice to use or not.

PS: Original version is more risky, just for your information.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] FloatingFatMan:
One of the program devs, Dorothyg07, asked that he remove it. When he posted it on the official forums, it was removed. More than sufficient justification to class it as piracy.

Last time I checked, the XDA-Developers forum did not condone warez; and have removed stuff in the past.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Ather:
well this is not WAREZ..last time i checked the software was termed as Freeware..tell me one thing..Which mobile windows are u using..are u using the default windows Which came with ur ppc..if not than thats also called PIRACY in ur defination..why are u using other roms than the default..efsane has done a very great job..even his translated OS's are good

keep up the Good Work efsane
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] efsane:
Edit post:

No problem.Thanx ather90
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] FloatingFatMan:
I'm using the factory shipped ROM on my Vario III. And it doesn't matter if it's free or not. PointUI own the software, and are the ONLY ones who can legally distribute it unless THEY grant permission. They haven't; ergo it's warez.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] sudf:
just a little post to said that i support efsane in this forum the htc dev and samsung dev and windows are hack to change language or other thing and there is no probleme for all the xda forum user .

good work and ps for esfane with what software have you open the home.cdl and home.exe
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] e_cool:
Good job efsane..

Thanks
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] caltino:
Irony?

I just find it incredibly hypocritical that in a site where people hack into and modify other's intellectual property to much herald, a guy who translated words gets slammed for copyright protection. Hacked roms, ripped software, modified programs and libraries, copied ideas and concepts galore, but this- oh no. Maybe if it was a translation of a korean utility into english, we would be thanking the guy for his service, for making a previously inaccessible tool available.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] mrvanx:
A tad OTT dude.

Warez isnt exactly a bonafide term anyway, theres MANY meanings of warez.

Since the PointUI devs have asked for it to be removed (although i aint seen that particular thread) then fair enough but unless they file a request here then i dont see it as much of a big deal as us modifying the WM2k3/5/6 builds we use on this site.

Its not as if we/us on here have Microsoft's permission to distribute modified versions of WM, and it makes no difference that MS happens to be a huge organisation compared to the PointUI guys.....the principle is the same.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Cobra2:
I totally support ur point of view....

Infact efsane just translated the lang. in this GREAT software, he did'nt changed or removed anything beside makin it more easy 2 POint UI to arrive to more users (in this case turkish users)....

Nice work efsane ...
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] borealcool:
Are there any monetary losses here? Any disassembled code floating around? I don't think so. PointUI, you and their fan club should be grateful for the FREE viral marketing efsane's hard work is providing. At the very least you should STFU.

Good job efsane!

EDIT: Why, FloatingFatMan, are you bashing hackers in this thread and thanking them in this one?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Ather:
go9od one boreal cool

NOw what do u have to say..i dnt know why are the pointui developers like this..i mean first mushipkw..now its efsane
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] jomo25:
I would just worry that the translations made by 3rd parties might stop working as the PointUI devs make changes to their code base. I think the PointUI folks do appreciate efforts like Efsane's. But they might prefer it in a different manner. THe dev did say that they will seek help re: translations. I'm sure they are receiving lots of requests and are prioritizing their work. And if in the course of fixing those things, the 3rd party dev might stop working and cause new issues.

So, if people like Efsane understand that their changes may stop working at some point and not request backwards compatibility or fixes to their strains of the app from the dev, they may not care.

Other than that, I guess I would just respect the author's requests. Just like we all respect Tene's requests to always point back to his server for updates and not host it separately. If the dev asks not to make separate code or version strains available, I'd be inclined to honor that request. If that's what they want, they'll make that request clear.

And for the record, I use the stock TyTN II ROM. I've used cooked one's in the past, with mixed results. So, I'm trying to stay stock for now. I am using the modified HTC Camera app. I don't think this place is a secret to HTC. If they didn't want these apps to be made avail, they would clamp down on this place pretty quickly.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] FloatingFatMan:
2 reasons really.

1. HTC haven't requested those apps be removed; PointUI have.

2. I've recently had a change of opinion re this sort of thing, and no longer use any software that I haven't either purchased, was shipped with my phone, or is free to use.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] filament:
This is just the translation , not hacking someone's work.

Efsane is very keen on editings but not stealing or hacking.may be the presentation is misunderstood, like its another version or something.its the same.

so take this as an improvement.

ie.pointui team ,can take Turkish parts and use them in their internationalisation. So its already done.pls dont take this as blaming but we are all downloading too many files edited from here also.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] gcd:
so why do you think that htc allows these software-roms to be published here? do you think that their developers don't know here?

this is actually a way of free advertising. people choose htc machines because of this flexibility. if you want to spread your program as much as possible, you should to thank efsane for spreading your program in Turkey

if i see one of my programs is translated into another language, i would say "thank you" rather than "delete it"....
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] borealcool:
Allow me to quote you again:

Your post was the second one in this thread, before any PointUI persons reared their nagging unappreciative heads.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] jomo25:
To be fair, he does say IF. His post says if permission was obtained, then no issues. If no permission, then otherwise.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] jomo25:
Different companies/groups protect their work in different manners, thus see forums like XDA in different ways. Is that not understandable? I happen to think viral marketing is a good thing also, but I understand not all companies would feel that way.

Apple goes so far as to actively squash anything that looks like infringement. HTC obviously does the opposite. Its not unreasonable for companies to defend their work however they see fit. If you disagree with thier methods, you can show your displeasure by not obliging them with your time and/or money.

In another thread, PointUI demonstrated that they want their logo maintained carefully. So, it wouldn't be a surprise if they would prefer to maintain their app vigorously also. But I'll let them comment on that. And I would respect that, whether I agreed with it or not. Call it "developer's code", if you will.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] kaanoglu:
very very good work, nice development.

you are in right way.

Thank you efsane.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] borealcool:
Efsane's job is nothing less than professional and provides an invaluable service to the Turkish community. Your Apple reference is laughable at best. Their iPhone has been mass reproduced and translated to Chinese in knockoff devices and there is nothing they can do or say about it, neither can PointUI for that matter.

EDIT: Have a look at this guy. He modded my WMP skin and is claiming it as his own. Do you see me whining in that thread? There is no point to it and I'm glad he's enjoying it.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] jomo25:
You missed the point completely. Apple has and continues to do what they can to control. Of course, they cannot compeltely control it cuz there are so many trying to copy it. But the point it they do care and are trying to do it. It doesn't make what they do right, or the ones that get away with it right. Its why the pPod project was halted (http://www.geek.com/the-death-of-ppod-the-virtual-ipod/), and why projects like "Who Needs An IPhone" look to change their name to something else. Yes Efsane can post his work anywhere. Nothing's stopping him. But again, I would respect the developers request if they asked me to stop.

As for you not whining. Again, you missed the point. You obviously subscribe to the notion that "imitation is a form of flattery". I happen to also. But I respect that not everyone has to feel that same way.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] sariyeron:
There's nothing to talk about anymore, you did a freeware and efsane did it better. Thanks and regards to this Kid.

Also you should have to think about it; do not develop just software; develop yourselves.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] enkidu:
very good work..

Thanks ..

i think you say:

i am the Legend.. :)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] borealcool:
You are letting the crux of these discussions fly completely over your head. PointUI can express their displeasure, but it doesn't change the fact efsane did a clean job of merely translating their software and no amount of whining warrants it getting deleted. Personally I wish he had spilled the entire code for us all to play with.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] frantic:
Now we can use Pointui English & Turkish. This is pride for us.

I have a quastion to efsane.

When we can change Pointui's color?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] jomo25:
Well, we'll see. One of the PointUI team (dorothyg07) has asked for this link to be removed in the beginning of this thread. It has not been removed. Perhaps that's policy. Perhaps its only an oversight.

And I never said the work efsane has done is not appreciated by me, nor did I say it wasn't quality work.

If you are so intent on helping the developers as you say, then why is there no help offered to translate into Turkish on the PointUI Internationlisation forum (http://forums.pointui.com/viewforum.php?f=13)? I think the developer was asking for help working with, but not to go off doing people's own development disconnected from the source team.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] jomo25:
A skinning feature is slated to get released perhaps as early as this weekend. It will be delivered via the Update Manager. I don't know the extent of the skins that will be available or how much customization will be possible, but there is an unofficial PointUI black skin that was made available via a preview available here: http://forums.pointui.com/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=152

EDIT: Actually, it's available here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=355961&page=12

The PointUI thread discusses how more skins wil be available.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] gcd:
so what is the difference between doing here or doing there? i have made a couple of translations, i have some knowledge about translating a program. source team actually can't provide any help for translation unless they give source codes. however, to translate a program, you don't need a source code.

source team seeks people to translate their program, but when they find the one, they are saying that "don't publish", rather than "join us" or something...

what an irony....
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] jomo25:
Cuz the dev team might be more actively checking their own forums specifically set up for internationalisation than they are here. That's what I would think at least.
