Vodafone branded HTC TyTNII showing wrong HTC weather icons

Yeah ...

But back to my problem.

I guess I could set preferences to UserWeather and write some kind of script that updates the registry string to show me the correct icon.

I don't like having scripts that regularly run in the background though and since there seem to be different versions of HTC weather out there, wouldn't it be better to make S2U2 flexible enough to support them all?

I guess what we'd need is information on how S2U2 EXPECTS HTC weather to work and the ability to map that to how whichever version of it REALLY works.

Can anybody explain how S2U2 reads HTC Weather? My HTC Weather has a registry key of HKLM\Software\HTC\HTCHome\Weather\Forecast0\Icon that contains the index of the icon to display.

From "experimental observation" my guess is that S2U2 reads from HKLM\Software\HTC\HTCHome\Weather\Forecast3\Icon. Is that correct?

Cheers,

Alaric11

Downloading now...

Once again I'm going to download this great piece of software. Thanks for this nice app!

I also would like to request 1 thing...

- When a contact call's you, Notes + Address could be shown, changeable on the options screen. It would make a great diff on my needs.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] NEWT0N:
I just wanted to mention that it does still not work correctly. Again for tomorrow a meeting in the afternoon instead of the one in the morning is shown. I do not see a pattern which appointment it does choose. But there is something fishy here ;)

btw.

according to http://www.modaco.com/content/apptodate/267096/download-apptodate-supported-applications/

S2U2 does support apptodate (and the other way around). But S2U2 does not appear in the list of application that are checked. The other ones all work great. Was the support of apptodate removed again?

Cheers, NEWT0N
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] wearefree:
I used to have a similar problem with all my weekly repeated events showing as the first no matter how many others I may have. However after deleting those events and re-adding them S2U2 was able to show everything correctly.

I suspect that some of the events were not inserted through the normal way (ie. with a calendar program) but rather from a restoration from an earlier backup that was causing the problem.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] NEWT0N:
Good to see that I am not the only one ;)

You could be right: The one actually shown is a repeating event. It was also not added with the calendar function on the HTC Diamond but was added in Outlook at my Office Computer and then synchronized with Active Sync (so in my case not from any kind of backup). Unfortunately removing them is not really an option, as those appointments have been sent out by various people from my office ;-) :)

@A_C: Does this help anything to track down the problem? Please let me know if I can help on anything.

Cheers, NEWT0N

Hi,

My device is a LG Ks20 and the LCD is a 240x320 Touchscreen.

I install the s2u2 for VGA and the resolution are bigger than my device resolution.

My screen displays the s2u2 but cut some part.

Can Anybody help-me? Can I change the resolution?

PS: Sorry for the bad english.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] bluemetalaxe:
so i must ask:why do you install VGA when you have a qvga display:eek:

if you dont even know what vga and qvga is, why dont yout you type it in the google window, funny :D
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] htctoucher:
is it possible to have the battery to be showing even when it isnt plugged in?

I love that graphic.. btw anyone interested here is a blue version attached :D

I added a slight glow, made it blue and added a pattern overlay to make it look as if there is something swirling about in there

enjoy!

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] kaneelias:
On my recolection, this has been asked about 100 times and unfortunately is not possible on S2U2 at the moment
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] CRE:
Heh, I'd rather just get rid of the battery graphic... would I just delete the files?

So, htctoucher, why not just make an animated GIF of the battery graphic of your choice to display when not plugged in? Or are you looking for something that will show present battery capacity?

I've thought it would be cool if the battery graphic only snapped back as far as the capacity. So, if you're at 20% and plugged in the graphic would animate the filling and then when it snaps back the first 20% would stay filled.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] htctoucher:
I'd love the option of having the battery displayed when not being charged.. then it could be an animated gif as you said, and would have the pattern/fill swirling about in it, but also as you said would display yuor current battery status.

IE.. 20% shows a 20% battery with the insides swwirling abuot

so .. yeah I agree.. Id like that option too :D

also, is it possible to have the volume s2u2 lnk to show up when you lock the device instead of the s2u2.exe?... I like being able to change the volume when it is locked

also, A_C.. ever given a thought to adding a numlock like the iphone has? and possibly a skinnable text notification like the iphone?

thanks in advance

HI A_C

I when use S2U2 V1.16 discovers some questions

I can not set Calendar、alarm chinese time format in Locked Sereen

I already had use S2U2 Settings to establish the time format

EX.

ENG：5:12A

CHT：5:12上 (上午 5:12 OR 上午 05:12)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] myshinynewtouch:
i have a question regarding the time setting needed to change so that the s2u2 lock runs... like for instance i am doing something on my phone and i would like to prevent s2u2 from running in like 5 secs - which is what it looks it is set to now.. how can i change that ?

yes i tried changing the setting on battery power - turn of LCD in 30 secs.. but i believe what this does - it turns of the physical LCD in 30 secs.. but by that time s2u2 has already locked the phone..

i want to be able to control the time it takes s2u2 to lock the phone... i have not seen this setting either in s2u2 settings or the registry.. am i missing something.. can any please point me in the right direction..

also, can i disable s2u2 when active sync is running.. looks like its causing to break my connection as soon as my phone is powered off due to s2u2 being run.. i added activesync to the registry.. but looks i made a mistake or something cause its not working.. pls helpp....
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] kaneelias:
If you do not want the battery to display while charging, simply delete all the png files with the words battery in them from the GFX folder, stop ilock then restart and you should be sweet.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] kaneelias:
Hi in order to allow activesync to keep running, check "do not suspend power" in the S2U2 settings,

For your first question, try changing the setting in S2U2 "lock when backlight turns off" this means that after the lcd goes of after 30 seconds S2U2 starts, try turning that off.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] jchrist:
Yeah, I have the same issue and its a bummer. I was thinking maybe it shows the appointments in the order in which they were added to the calendar. I use only the 'show one (or next)' and it shows the next weekly event, not the next scheduled event. Im going to trial this on Saturday.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Papachabre:
Ever since I installed v1.16 I've been having a strange problem. Every now and then, when I disconnect the phone from my PC and take it with me, later on I'll try to turn it on and it won't respond. The signal light on the top flashes but pressing the power button does nothing. I even tried telling someone to call me after it locks up like that and it doesn't ring. The only way to unfreeze it is to soft-reset. I was going to revert to S2U2 v1.05 but I like the new volume replacement. Anyone have any ideas?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] htctoucher:
nevermind.. solved it meself!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Joao78:
Hello all,

First, I'm new in this forum and this is my first message. So if there is something wrong, please tell me.

It seems that I have the same problem as Alaric11.

I have a HTC polaris and the version 1.16 of S2U2 installed on it.

Regarding the weather option, I use HTC weather and there is a difference between what is displayed in the HTC Home and what the S2U2 displayed (same example as Alaric11).

Does anybody have a solution to fix this problem?

Thanks in advance for your help,

Joao78
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] myshinynewtouch:
hi kaneelias - thank you for your suggestions.. the first one worked... with regards to second.. is there any way to invoke s2u2 lock in like say 30 sec when my phone is set to turn off lcd in like 1 min.. the lock runs automatically when i am doing something on the phone and dont press anything for like 5 sec.. its kinda irritating when i am composing a text message or writing an email.. since now i have to go and add each one of these applications in the exception list in the registry.. i was wondering if i can just prevent s2u2 from running for like 30 sec instead of in 5 sec.. i am probably asking for something weird but i hope u see what i am getting at..

if i follow the second suggestion, it will completely prevent s2u2 from running... as long as lcd is turned on..
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] jlmwrite:
v1.16 is working beautifully on my Tilt. Alas, the battery drain has been incredibly high in the past few days since installing it. My settings have been the same as always, but with 1.16 my battery is dead by the end of the work day.

Monitored the power specifically yesterday: Unplugged the phone from the charger, and before i'd even left the house 1/2 hour later had dropped to 97% without using the phone at all. During the 12 hour work day, I had approximately 1 hour of total talk time, a few dozen text messages, and had less than 9% power. On my way home, made two more quick calls (less than 5 minutes each) got one more text message, and my battery died.

This morning reinstalled 1.03 (the most stable version I've used). After 3 hours, two short phone calls, and a few texts sent/received, I'm still at 98%.

A_C, you do INCREDIBLE work and I'm eternally grateful to you for S2U2, but I'm going to stay with the older version until the battery drain issue is addressed. Another big THANKS to you anyway!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] azzambm:
I'm having the same problem too...

+1 for a solution...
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] DaDragonChild:
I notice the "Programs" screen behind where the volume is changed. Is that a skin that is available here somewhere or is that from a ROM?

Anyway, I was wondering how I could actually get to the volume control screen/Profile changing screen.

I know, kinda noobie. But I've been keeping track with almost every version of S2U2 and just totally missed it I guess. =P

Strange problem with s2us and s2p

Hey guys and galls, and especially AC...

I have a strange problem that is driving me nuts, and really hope anyone out there has a solution.

When I run S2P(Great app) and the my device locks, with S2U2 (another great app...hear the trumpet's play for AC...hihi :) ) my device closes S2P after a while..

This is so annoying..

I don't know what causes it, bene searching everywhere, also on my device for a certain setting..

Can't find anything..

So I cant enjoy S2P together with S2U2 for some strange reason..

Can anybody help me??

Please, please, pretty please with cherry's on top :)

Ac, any clue?

Anyone else experiencing this strange behaviour?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] p50kombi:
problem below is not related to s2p..

apparently my device shuts down any apllication that is active when it switches to s2u2.

any idea how to disable that s2u2 closes my apps?

anyone?

or does anyone have similar problems?

always good to know if there are more out there who have same problems.

gives me more confidence I'm not going nuts :)

thanks guys..

ps.. A_C love the apps you develop.. they're usefull and show good quality.

keep up the good work (as the monty python's would say)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] mlk:
A_C, just noticed that all day events (such as Birthday reminders) are double shown on the lock screen, also noticed that the second entry hangs around for the next day, so maybe the check is a minute out on the stroke of midnight?

Also, any updates on the battery drain - sometimes it is quite virulent, other times not so nasty, but definitely making a machine that usually takes 3 days to drain into a 24 hour charge required machine. Actually, while I am here, is there a memory drain with this as well, as I seem ti have to soft-reset at least every two days now (it might be something else, just thought I would ask)?

Otherwise, love all your stuff, so keep up the great work!

thanks
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] htctoucher:
thsi app jst gets better and better!

too bad the actual iphone s2u doesnt have so many features :D

afew things:

is there a way to turn off the text for the weather, the temperature?

that text is just so ugly (the black border is uneven and quite jagged)

or maybe apply the effect of the s2u text to it, or change it to "mostly cloudy" etc instead of the temperature?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] kaneelias:
What are your S2U2 settings at the moment, what do you have Power off in set too?

I don't think it is possible, if you have your LCD set to turn off after 1 minute and S2U2 set to start when backlight turns off S2U2 will run when the light turns off, unfortunately you cannot set S2U2 to start in 90 seconds, i would suggest changing the LCD to turn off after 2 mins

Thanks for the continued development! :)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] jeronevw:
Good work. Just downloaded it.

Have some suggestion;

I'm not very found of going into the registry of my phone, so every time I hope to see all registry options into S2U2 Settings. Maybe this will make it a big list (sub-suggestion: tabs), but on the other hand a lot of newbies would be helped here.

A button (or some kind, maybe a small slider) on S2U2 screen itself to the settings would be appreciated.

If not available yet, an option to always use the battery life status.

If not available yet, an option to use custom date/time display. I want to use something like this:

hh:nn:ss\n dd / mm / yyyy\n dddd / mmmm

Resulting in:

13:15:36
14 - 08 - 2008
Thursday - Augustus

Anyways, keep up the great work.

Thanks
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] myshinynewtouch:
one thing i noticed on my htc touch (vogue) is that when i try to end a call by pressing the end button (my screen is blank at that time or turned off) i cant seem to end the call... i have to switch on the LCD and then either press the end button or press the end softkey...

is there anyway i can just press the end key and end the phone call without having to turn on the LCD, in my settings i have 'dont use keyboard hook' to off.. and 'blank screen on talk' set to off...

@l3v5y

Hi ! Just a question... Does the last release work flawlessly on your Prophet ?

I have read much of the thread but I can't seem to find any solution to my problem...

From version 1.05, i started using "don't double check backlight" in order to get S2U2 simply lock the device... It works but it's just not as quick as before (i can have a glance at my today screen before the device is actually locked when i turn the device on).

But now with recent versions, the device locks but doesn't go to standby mode anymore...

I tried every combination of settings, I tried disabling all my today plugins, I tried to remove all exception exe in registry and so on...

Any hint here ? Sorry if the issue was answered and i missed it...

Myster D
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] l3v5y:
Since I downloaded, and installed it, it's been working well.

Try it and see!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] mysterd:
I did :) That's why I was asking, seeing you had the same hardware...

It just doesn't work... I think i'll just have to go back to older versions...

Thanks anyway
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] l3v5y:
what options did you change from default so I can try and see what happens.

Also, you can edit a reg setting (Something like PopupdelayMS, I'll check that though) that changes how quickly S2U2 appears when you turn the screen on.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] mysterd:
With default settings : no lock at all

In order to have the device lock, I turn on :

* Lock when backlight turns off

* Don't double check backlight

Process to see the problem :

1) Lock the device launching S2U2 link

2) After a few seconds, the device DOES go to standby

3) Push the power button

4) The device wakes up, showing the S2U2 screen

5) The device never goes back to standby

Weird...
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] l3v5y:
Doesn't do that for me...

Change the "Power Off in" to a lower value and see if that helps.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] mysterd:
No change...

Maybe related to the fact that I still use WM5...

I should give one of your WM6.1 cooked rom a try ;)

Thanks anyway for your kind help !

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Sian:
The Volume Button works ok but after that my top bar will not be displaying properly. Need to run S2U to and unlock the phone to get it back in proper form.

Tried working with S2P. No problem too, both calling and not calling S2P to the front after unlock.

No problem with the profile icon displaying on top bar. :)

Running on Touch Cruise WM6.0.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] johanromijn:
It's running great on my TyTN II.

Since I have a scrolling wheel for adjusting the volume, the new volume control doesn't work. But that's not a big problem for me.

I can always assign it to another hardware button.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] A_C:
Ok, Ironman. ;) No need to use the registry. Use the S2U2 Settings to enable the "Volume Control" instead.

For the .lnk file, you can create it at your device with Resco Explorer or Total Commander or even with your PC: create a .txt file; edit it's content as 34#"\program files\s2u2\s2u2.exe" -vc (assume it's installed there); rename it to .lnk; transfer it to your device's \Windows\Start Menu\Programs; then use any key mapping software (some devices have it come along) to map this lnk to your preferred key.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] A_C:
As the "Keyboard Hook" function does not work with the old way to "power off", it's changed since v1.04.

@ALL

If you still have problem with v1.10, try to redownload v1.10b. Just want to make sure you get the fixed version. Besides, for Diamond users, please grab the VGA version.

If the slide still does not work, try to disable the DirectDraw at the S2U2 Settings.

Still no go, post your device name, OS, S2U2.LOG, iLock2.LOG (both LOG located at the S2U2 installed folder) & try to dump your registry settings here.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] A_C:
How about the CallerID? If I'm correct, you once told the old version did not work on your Cruise...

Glad to hear someone finally saying it works. :)

I've struggled so long to have them implemented as someone already said S2U2 is a boatware...

I have a trinity, I have a wheel for the volume, I have no software to remap keys (I think...). I already set the volume control to ON in settings, but nothing happens...

Thank you in advance
