Weather Homescreen Plugin

I was reading a thread somewhere else in the forum and found that they were trying to add Weather Plugin to their homescreen. I'm wondering since we're in such a "Mental High" is there a way for us to develop this for our phone. It would look real nice we could add it to the existing plugin where the clock is located. We could put it right under the clock. What do you say... is this possible??
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] shadowmike:
yeah as freddy said. allshadow.com users have been getting aggrivated with me because i told them i wouldnt suppport the last 2 roms if they installed it. i know about 50% of that community + will install your rom. freddy and i will report their bugs also freddy has a number of users on his site. i dont know if they have been testing it or not.

but as soon a a stable release is done with start menu and everthing working i know alot of ppl will install.
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] ND4SPD:
I guess we could make the weather plugin. Anyone want to start working on it? I'm feeling kind of lazy after my AP work. :) Am uploading rom right now.(sorry, rapidshare again, sendspace wasn't uploading fast enough) Also, this is actually version 3 of the rom (to all of you, I've had quite a few versions go on my phone when porting) and it doesn't really have a name yet. I've got some ideas, but does anyone have any creative ideas for the final version?

I remember that. Wasn't that in february 2007? I remember it being shortly after I joined.
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] shadowmike:
well since t-mobile mocrosoft or htc had helped us at all in this 6.1 upgrade it needs to be named as a big **** you to all 3 of them. so what kind of word would fit to say screw you we dont need you ?

Shadow [H]T-MicroSuCKs Rom v4
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] shadowmike:
hmm file should be here soon.
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] ND4SPD:
Here's version 3. Hopefully I can keep you guys messing with this until my AP Exam is over ;).

Link: http://rapidshare.com/files/110930745/PHOEIMG.rar.html

Just a reminder, since I haven't said this in a while, use at your own risk! Not to put you off or anything...

You need to copy this into the RUU folder if you want to update from your computer. Or, you can update via SD in the way pixelwix outlined a few pages before(trust me, the SD way is a LOT faster).

Still a little way to go before that final version...

Nice names...:)
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] kabdallah9:
?

hey, v3 is somewhat diff from the other versions. It is named Phoeimg and there is no program to update the rom.
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] ND4SPD:
You can put it in the previous RUU folders, but remember to pull out the rom.nbh that's already there. Or you can just copy PHOEIMG.nbh to a microSD card and update.
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] kabdallah9:
oo ok. thnx, i got it.
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] mile7985:
hey can someone tell me all the things i need to do prior to flashing off a microSD card for the first time? (i havent unlocked or anything yet)
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] shadowmike:
damn burgerking is closed looks like an hour download for me :(
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] benjaminries:
Hehe... I think naming the series "No-XDAdev-section-4-u!" should also get some strong consideration :) Seriously though, a classy name might be related to the concept of shadows... like "Phantom" or "Eclipse" or "Sleuth" or "Groundhog"?

Anyway, just installed it, and I have to give ND4SPD a huge round of applause here. Simply awesome work.

(edit) I'm going to start a new "official release" thread for this ROM, with step-by-step instructions, downloads, and features/bugs list. Hope that's okay with everyone - this thread has just become unwieldy for new visitors.
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] ND4SPD:
Just copy it into your microSD card. Then turn off the phone and start it back up in bootloader mode (camera + power button) It will ask you if you want to flash os from SD card? hit yes and when it's done, it'll take you back to the three color bootloader screen. Then you can turn off the phone(pull battery out) and turn it back on
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] mile7985:
ok thanks! so to be clear, whats the CID unlock thing that iv read about throughout this thread?

V3 Rom Reply

Just flashed v3 of Rom.

-Start menu does show all programs.

-A angel picture has been added to the pictures(lool)

-When the phone is locked and you press unlock, it says press * key to unlock not home key(even though the home key does work)

-When scrolling through icons on start screen, the screen flashes white when moving down the start page.

-Myfaves display isnt on the home screen(dont know if it should be) but is a icon in the start menu and can be accessed from there.
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] shadowmike:
i have 30 mins left on download ill test this out..
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] shadowmike:

V3 Bug

I think this is a tiny bug i may have noticed on V3. When the phone is locked and you press unlock, a info screen pops up and it says press * key(press home key and it still works,doesnt matter). After you click either the home or * button, the top icon bar and the bottom start bar load, but the info screen remains. The only way to access the homescreen is by clicking the START button and clicking the home button. Any1 else having same problem?
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] benjaminries:
Anticipating the flood of new users we'll recruit to thoroughly test this version, we might want to clean up the step-by-step instructions and post a new (beta) release thread. I'm still waiting for my rapidshare counter to reset so I can get the SSPL/USPL tools.

Below is the post on page 7 to which everyone keeps referring. Do I need to download both, or just the second one? Because I'll gladly package everything together with ND4SPD's v3 release and post as a mirror...
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] kron2:
no problem here but I have the * to unlock but home unlocks it with no problems
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] kron2:
download both
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] ND4SPD:
thanks ben for posting updates list. the only difference is that I have the landscape camera. you can delete the nbh file after you are done. I don't remember adding the angel picture. if myFaves isn't showing up, you should check if CMyFaves is one of the current plugins.

thanks ben for offering to make the package available as one.
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] ha85:
I can't get my phone to turn dark dim in order to install the new rom. I followed all the instructions like before, but with it's not working with version 3
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] ND4SPD:
If you're on the custom rom right now, you don't need to sspl again unless you go back to the t-mobile rom
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] kabdallah9:
UPDATE:

-Acccessibility icon cannot be accessed from setting menu.

-Flash Picture has been added under pics and videos icon. It is named boy and a boy pops a bubble gum and the screen says "IM STUCK ON YOU!" Just thought it was interesting lool.
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] kron2:
MyFaves works you just have to go to start for it but i am going to look in to it on the home page working good so far just one bug and it is with the lock so far
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] kron2:
you talking about accessories it works for me
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] ha85:
Not sure what I'm doing wrong then...I copied/pasted PHOEIMG.nbh to my RUU folder on my desktop, I also removed the previous *.nbh file. Do I just run the ROMUpdateUtility?
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] kabdallah9:
yup just run it and itll flash the new rom
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] kabdallah9:
No not accessories. Go to START, click the settings folder, keep going down until you get to the second page, and click on Accessibility. You cant open it.
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] ND4SPD:
that's weird. I'll make sure to replace that file
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] kron2:

[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] kabdallah9:
Since I have myfaves, the time panel disappeared off the home screen. My phone can't even tell me the time anymore. Any comments or suggestions?
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] ND4SPD:
oops. I probably forgot to add accessible to the rom. for the clock, go into registry and set CClock disabled value to 0 and restart your phone.
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] kron2:

[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] kabdallah9:
what do you mean when you say go into registry?
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] ha85:
after 2% into the installation, I get an error saying that the image file might be corrupt. Not sure what I'm doing wrong, maybe my bat isn't 50% full? Version 3 doesn't seem to update the battery life, so I can't tell. Anyone have any suggestions?
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] kron2:
thank shadow mike for the images I had to put in the cab to make it the reg edit is in it to get the clock back just in Stoll it
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] kron2:

[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] mile7985:
here is what iv found so far:

-the Comm Manager doesnt have the icons to the left in the V3.

-the clock and date does not show up on the unlock screen even though the settings tell it to

-the dial.png and dialbg.png are not showing up properly

-the Remove Programs list doesnt populate
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] pixelwix:
you guys know that the myfave plugin that you've seen around is not actually myfave right?

its just a photo dialer plugin that one of the users made for the dash. i have it on my dash, and its defently not myfave.

Forked!

Maybe this is unorthodox, but I've forked this into a new release thread here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=388655

...basically designed for new users that don't want to read through 40-50 pages of this ROM's history. I will maintain a bugs/features list, download links / instructions / mirrors, and temporary workarounds as they are posted - all on page 1, updated to reflect the most recent beta release.

ND4SPD, if you object, let me know and I'll take down the new thread. I figure the present one can keep going, but largely for those who have read the whole thing. Plus the new thread would be a great place to link from http://www.allshadow.com/ and http://www.freddyreyes.com/ (hint hint)

Oh, and I zipped the SSPL files together with the new ROM release into a single download here: http://rapidshare.de/files/39251856/ND4SPDv3.zip.html

Fixes

Fix for Start Menu "flashing" white when pgup/pgdn

This problem results from setting the BKBitmap key for the Start Menu background, while leaving blank/unknown the key that sets the Recent Programs background. Recent Programs background is white or off-white, and that flashes briefly whenever you pgup/pgdn through Start Menu list. The two backgrounds need to be the same.

Fix (for now?): edit registry and delete the following value entirely:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Shell\Rai\:MSStart\BKBitmap

That way both Start Menu and Recent Programs lists are off-white (will match chosen system colour scheme)

General note on skinning

While skinned backgrounds for the Start Menu and Comm Manager are nice and all, they lose their appeal when the user attempts to switch to a new system color scheme / background. Guava/red theme looks ugly with green swirly background, IMO. Unless it's Christmas! :D

Perhaps we should leave the background blank for the Start Menu, and let users insert one of their own as a personal customization/hack for themselves?

As for the Comm Manager, it would be nice to find a neutral background that fits with all system colour schemes. That's how the dialer skin is right now, and I think it works exceedingly well.
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] benjaminries:
Fix for missing CommManager icons

Download the attached zip at http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=2115587&postcount=42

Unzip and copy all PNG files to \Windows on your device. You may have to kill CommManager with the Task Manager and then restart it to see the full effect.

Great Job...

Appreciate all the work you guys have put in. I have followed your instructions and got it working from the first test rom with all the fixes recommended in this post. Everything was functioning, wifi, mms, proxy, email. I saw that Need posted a new rom and decided to try that one.

Of all my luck, while in the middle of flashing the ROM, my power goes out here at work. So now, Shadow will not boot up, though I can get to bootloader. Also tried doing a hard reset and nothing. Of course when I try to flash the rom it craps out at 2% due to not having jump running. I run the jumpspl and it cannot see my device. Wowza! Anyway to get back to stock rom so I can start over? Any help is appreciated. I'll keep trolling these forums looking.

Thanks,

Fabe

**EDIT**

The ROM on TMobile site(update) works. I had to reboot the phone a few times, but once the PC saw it , it finally worked. Now back to testing the great ROM.
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] ND4SPD:
Nice benjaminries! Thanks for making a new thread. It'll be a lot cleaner with a new one.

Actually this is the plugin that came with the T-Mobile ROM. You can add the Rinku's plugin but I didn't put that in the rom

Ok, I've searched the about my wi-fi problem and I really need some help here.

I can't turn on the wi-fi and when I go to properties it says "driver not loaded".

I tried to put the "wifiinit.lnk" on my startup folder, I tried running it manually and still no luck.

Is it my phone?
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] benjaminries:
I feel really bad for you dude, but I'm pretty sure it is just your phone. The rest of us have had wifi drivers loading just fine not only with this ROM, but with the version before it.

Does your wifi work with the T-Mo factory ROMs? You could always flash back to those.

If not, you should either try to get warranty repair, or try to see if the phone is still valuable to you without wifi (after all, most WinMo Smartphone devices have bluetooth only). Also, you could try to order a MicroSD SDIO wifi card (http://www.spectec.com.tw/products_detal.asp?dptype=w1sdw823)
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] benjaminries:
That's weird, my text is black. Try either reseting the phone, or going into Settings > Home Screen and changing the colour scheme and background around.
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] benjaminries:
Are you trying to setup hotmail using the regular Mail accounts app, or using the Windows Live services? The latter should work.

Fix to use manual email account settings where autoconfig available

This is a minor bug, but something that those who wish to use Gmail IMAP may notice: normally in WM Smartphone, when you add a new email account, you are first asked for your email address and your password. The next screen should contain a check box, asking if you want the app to attempt to receive automatic settings from the server (it will try to contact whatever domain/server name comes after the "@" symbol in your email address).

But in this ROM, the wizard first attempts to get auto settings without your permission. If it fails, it asks your permission; you can uncheck and enter manually. If it succeeds, it says "auto settings found" and only allows you to proceed or cancel - no option to enter things manually. The catch-22 is that if your mail server does autoconfig but you want manual config, you cannot enter a valid email address.

This may sound rare, but Gmail is an example: they provide both POP and IMAP access, with gmail.com providing POP autoconfig.

There are two work-arounds:

1. Enter a mangled email address (ie. xyz@gmaaail.com), choose to enter settings manually, then enter all the correct settings and save the account. Then go Tools > Options > Account Settings and edit the first page of the wizard back to the correct email address.

OR

2. Before setting up your account, disconnect all network access - unplug from USB sync, shut off WIFI, disable GPRS. Then when setting up your account, the phone will fail to retrieve auto-config settings from the server and let you go manual config, even if you've entered your valid email address.
[Non-Touchscreen Windows Mobile Other] benjaminries:
Ok. Can you have a close look at your device registry and confirm that all your values in the following key are identical to mine?

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Shell\Rai\:MSStart]

0(string)=MSStart

1(string)=appman.exe -s BootApps :MSStart tpcutil.dll AMStart

2(dword)=0

3(dword)=0

BKBitmapTextColor(dword)=16777215

BKBitmapTransparent(dword)=16711935

BKDefaultGradient(dword)=1

BKFlags(dword)=26

GridView(dword)=1

If you want to use non-green colour schemes and don't want the Comm Manager to stay green, copy the attached PNG file (using an app like Total Commander) into your \Windows folder. It is the neutral grey comm manager skin.

I don't think that will work. As I suggested before, are you using the Windows Live program, or just trying to add an account through the regular mail interface?

You need to use the Windows Live app. Don't worry, you can tell it not to sync contacts, but just to sync your mail. That will create a Hotmail Inbox that you should then be able to access through the mail app?
