Thank you for the work......

Hi,

I have installed iFonz 1.22 today and I really like it. There is just one option I would like to turn of. That is the loading of the Loading(P/L).bmp when selecting an application.

For some applications, the Loading(P/L.bmp does not close and I can not use the application.

Does anyone know a solution for this?

Thanx Robert

German trandlation & Phone funktion buttons

Hi,

first, i´am sorry about my bad english. I haven´t tried iFonz yet, but maybe i test it. So i have some short questions about the prog:

Is there a German translation for the new version 1.12, for older Versions i`ve found some.

Are there buttons like in Spb MS which show things like

"missing calls

"(urgent!) or "unreaded messages"

Is a installation on the storage card possible (advantages/

disadvantages

)

Is there a solution to show next or open appointments

Thanks for the upcomming answers

Greetings Frank

(from Germany)

Hi RobertdeHoop;

For normal apps you can change the Icontype in icon settings from "Normal" to "Normal(No open animation)".

This only works for normal apps, not for the special icontypes(Contact, SMS, Phone...).

ssj5trunks could solve this by adding an seperate option in the iconsettings to enable the animation. So you could choose no amimation for every icontype. This might especialy be of interest for the owners of older (slower) devices.

(But I think this would cause to much Probs with taking over the themes of former versions)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Sid-Shrunk:
Hi frank_43

I havn't seen one either. But it should be no problem to translate the lang.txt maybe I find some time.

Create icon with icontype Phone or SMS. Icon will show number of missed calls / unread SMS(see picture below).

I've installed several versions on memorycard and never had problems. The advatage in past was/is you don't have to reorganize your Icons (...) after hardreset. In new vesion yo not even need to install the cab again(as no longer needed)

Make an icon of icontype calendar(appointments in future will be shown,see screenshot below). Only shows the number of appointments, not time and date(see red circle). You can setup in the programsetting/notification/Days for appointments the number of days iFonz will look in the future for appointments

Here the screenshot:

German Translation

Hi,

had some spare time, to do an german translation of the lang.txt. Menus and settings in german. Just put it in iFonz folder.

Hope you like it.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] laider:
I love the app and thanks for your hard work. Question: Any way to get it to stay open. It randomly closes and I constantly have to re-launch it. I have it checked to open with windows start up. I have a sch i760. Thanks

iFonz keeps closing at randon after wake up from sleep

Wonderful piece of work here...keep it going.

Noticed that some of you guys using KS20. Do you have problem like me whereby the iFonz keeps closing at random especially after waking up from sleep?

Any solutions or advice please?

Googled around and seems like it is a common problem not only for my phone model....

Problem with startup

I love this program. ssj5trunks, thank you for putting this together. Great job. The only problem I am having on my Tilt is when I turn it on, the iFonz screen keeps constantly sliding down until I stop it using the red phone hard button. After that it works fine. I'm on WM 6.0.

Has anyone experienced this? And, ssj5trunks, is there anything I could do to fix it?

Thank you.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Sid-Shrunk:
Start iFonz by soft- or hardwarekey

Hi classnetd,

I have recognized this beavior with te KS20 too(even if the newer version is much more stable).

If you don't like to restart iFonz in startmenu everytime it's closed or minimized, you can assign iFonz to a hard or softkey.

Assign it to a Hardwarekey(Safe):

​

in german WM: Einstellungen/Tasten/Programmschaltflächen/Select Button to change and set it to iFonz

I have no english device, but I think it should be something like : Settings/Keys or buttons/...

If iFonz can't be selected in the list of choosable programs, put a link to iFonz in the \windows\startmenu​

Assign it to left softkey in the bottombar(Fix Registry !!! Take care!!!):

​

Modify registry like I did, because I use the Hardwarekeys for screenshots and taskswitcher.

Change registry with Prg like total commander.

You have to change 2 values, one for the Name shown in the bottom bar

[HKCU\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Today\Keys\112\Default set it to iFonz]

and one for setting he path to iFonz.exe

[HKCU\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Today\Keys\112\Open set it to the path on your device]

The path should look something like that : \speicherkarte(memorycard)\programme\iFonz\iFonz.exe​

Changing registry is pretty easy, but can cause serious Softwareprobs if you change wrong values,so...

...Don't change Registry if you don`t know what you are doing. You're doing changes on your own risk.

Problems to install

Hi together,

I would like test ifonz, but it doesn´t work. :confused:

First (I have WM6.1 on my PPC) I unpacked the Zip-Archiv on my MAC.

After this I copied all files on my storagecard (I build a file /Progamme/)

The first answer I´ve got from my PPC was, that iFonz won`t run, because the Net files doesn´t compare to my Net (an older Version on my PPC ????)

So I loaded the .Net files from the beginning of this thread and installed them under the path /Programme on to the mainstorage of the ppc (a installation on the StorageCard was impossible). After the "install" of the Cab´s I tried to start iFonz once more, but nothing happend. At last I´ve copied all files from the storagecard in to the main storage and tried it once more -> I recieved a Error Message regarding to the DLL files.

What I have done wrong?

What can I do?

Frank
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] classnetd:
Nice Workaround

Hi Sid,

This is a great workaround at the moment. I managed to assign it to a hardwarekey. Too bad it cannot be assigned to the key (power button) itself that needs to be pressed in order to wake the device, else it would be perfect (waking up + running iFonz). I was actually looking for something (a program if it even exists) that makes a task/program run whenever device is awake from sleep.

Wonder when will the iFonz be a Today plugin. That could also solve this completely.

Anyway thanks again and still looking for better solutions when they come around.......

Glad I found this thread.

iFonz rules...........................................
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Sid-Shrunk:
Powerbutton->unlock->iFonz

Hi classnetd,

if you use S2U2 for unlocking device you can set any exe to start after unlocking device. If you let it start iFonz, you should have the behavior you want.

Therefore you have to change a registry value [\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\A_C\S2U2\UnlockRunEXE to the full path of iFonz.exe].

iFonz will be started if device is unlocked. This does not cause any probs if ifonz is already started.

If iFonz is minimized it will be maximized, if it'sclosed it will be started and if active window when locked device, it will be active if device is unlocked(iFonz won't be startet more than once)

Press powerbutton->Unlock with finger(S2U2)->iFonz starts/maximizes

You can also try to use the following tool to let S2U2 start iFonz after unlock

S2U2SettingsPlus 2.3.1 I have not tried it!!!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] classnetd:
Hi Sid,

Coincidentally, I am using the S2U2. Managed to set iFonz to run in S2U2SettingsPlus. Tested and working fine.

You r my savior!!!

Thanks much. Really appreciate the advices that had been given here.

By the way, off topic, anything to emulate the iRotate thingy in iPhone? Was looking at http://www.flicksoftware.com/research/index_files/Page375.htm for their iSwish and iZoom but seems still in development.

This will definitely complete the journey to become the iPhone clone....
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Sid-Shrunk:
Hi classnetd,

You could use the switchrotation.exe in\iFonz\utils\ to rotate screen. If you start it with an icon don't forget to set icontype to "normal(no open animation)".

The only app i know that could start the rotation by finger guesture is FTouchFlo but I rather think, it will not work with iFonz cause iFonz uses guestures too.

It would be nice if ssj5trunks could let you set an app to start by guesture, alternatively to minimize and open settings.

Any weather App to run with Ifonz??

Thank you from Spain for Ifonz. I don't know any app that runs with Ifonz because they use to be pluggins for today screen, so when I press my weather icon, I don't know where to send it. I have tried with SPB weather and htc one.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] bluemetalaxe:
weather is for me a major problem of iFonz because most and best weather apps are today Plugins. you need a standalone weather app. i use "handy weather". u can also trie fizz weather or similar.

a dream would be a weather app that shows current weather in iFonz with changing icons

Switchrotation launching from iFonz

Hi Sid,

Thank you for the response but for my case. I had set switchrotation as an icon/link in iFonz. However I got a blank white screen which hangs there. The only way I could get out was to press and hold the screen till i see the option settings for Ifonz, press cancel and I can return to the chosen selection (it happens for both portrait to landscape and vice versa). I had also read about this issue happening to some other phone models as well but not found a solution yet. Some had mentioned that this only happens when launch from iFonz itself but works well if iFonz is not running. I myself have tested and verified on this on my KS20.....anyone having the same issue here?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] chito:
Good day!

can i try this on my 02 XDAII?

tia!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Sid-Shrunk:
Hi classnetd,

Are you shure you changed icontype to" normal(no start animation)" like descriped in last post? On my KS20 the whitescreen blocks too if I forget to change this.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] chito:
hi master Sid-Shrunk!, can i use this on my 02xdaII?, what should i download sir?, i cant understand whats in the blogsite coz i think its italian. good day!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] classnetd:
Hi Sid,

Damn....you always hit the nail on the head...I forgot to change the icontype thingy...that solve the trick..

Ok one last thing (I hope)...after the switchrotation via iFonz, if I were to lock the device using 2su2, I will get a whitescreen as well. I had to soft reset to get things working again. I had tried switchrotation not from iFonz and then lock it using 2su2 which seems fine. This only happens while launching from iFonz only. If you can't simulate the problem, then i guess it could be my lower version of s2u2 (v1.22). I seems to have more hanging/freezing issue using the latest s2u2.

Any advice?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Sid-Shrunk:
Hi chito,

I think you need at least wm5.0 (but I think your device has only WM 2003).

But you can try it.

1.As descriped at first post download net compact framework 3.5 from the first post and install.

2. Download ifonz 1.1.2 qvga from the authors blog to your device. Everything else is descriped in first post.

Use google language tools to translate whole websites if you don´t understand language. So did I.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] chito:
tnx for the reply Master Sid-Shrunk!

Menu Display Problem on WQVGA

I have installed iFonz 1.1.2 and it runs fairly well (except it sometimes exits on its own). However, I have noticed that the press+hold of the battery icon to show the menu will only display the first 2 menu options "Add New Icon" and "Open Settings" when my phone (Samsung i900 Omnia) is in portrait orientation (240x400) but will display the entire menu when in landscape (400,240) orientation. Is there a setting I may have unknowingly made to make it do this and how can I fix it? Also, is it possible to assign a soft or hard button to minimize iFonz, as I find that the minimize gesture does not work very well without a stylus on the omnia.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Ladislav Molnar:
Since I didn't get any reply I investigated the forum and found some solution on the thread below:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=1940499&highlight=weather+panel#post1940499

The minimize worked, but after a few seconds the Home page with WeatherPanel output flipped back to iFonz. Maybe it was caused by the running task manager.

Then I found that this new version of iFonz has built in gesture control to minimize the running iFonz so one can see Home page endlessly. To switch back to the iFonz can be through a running Task Manager, but it is not really iPhonysh gesture, however it works.

Help!

I've been trying to use custom icons with iFonz but it seems I have to manually strip out the shadows of icons. It seems that there is no transparency allowed other than the pink colour.

This is a problem because each icon in a set needs to be alterted to avoid ugly shadows.

Are there any quick solutions to this problem or are we just waiting for proper alpha transparency support in iFonz?

Okay, thank you max ;), my weather Problem is gone (Handyweather did no automatic updates on my device)

I use secondtoday, weatherpanel and i theme called iweather (with animated Icons) http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=2526683

for it. When i press my weather icon the secondtoday screen with weatherpanel opens (now i can try also animated tf3d Icons)

But anyway a own weather application or plugins for ifonz would be great, but i think now its perfect for me:
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Ladislav Molnar:
Thanks for the suggestion, it works (to the point of minimize and viewing the other with WP as plugin), but I couldn't figure out how to miximize with iPhonies style (gesture, swipe, etc.), functions only by switching task bar .
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] bluemetalaxe:
@Ladi: the gesture is to go with the finger from top of screen (Taskbar) down to bottom, but u must have enable this gesture in ifonz settings ! to easily go back to ifonz, make a shortcut to ifonz on your left or right softkey, so you dont a need a Taskmanager.

Now that I have the correct version on my XDA Ignito, I'm making progress! (I wonder why the "old" thread that I was posting in wasn't locked, with a link to here - "Search" didn't find this thread: maybe I've lost the skill of searching).

Anyway... iFonz didn't create a start icon for itself in any of the "Programs" locations. I have to start File Manager, navigate to it, and select it. Did I do something wrong, or is this a feature of the VGA version?

Also, the list of .lnk commands provided is helpful, but it's missing a lot. Does anyone know how to make a working link (.lnk or direct) for:

- The HTC Weather app

- Opera 9

- E-mail that isn't "Activesync" (ie not Outlook)

- Internet sharing (mine doubles as the modem for my laptop)

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] hendrixus:
I like to post my question first again. I ask before in This thread Thanks for this software.

I can get any version installed. But only the versions below 1.0.0 actually work. Versions above 1.0.0 gives me an error telling me I need a newer version of NETCF? And If I have NETCF v3.5 installed on a storage card i need to place the card. I have NETCF 3.5 installed and not on a card, but in main. However a card is installed. Running the basic HTC 3.54 WM6 ROM.

Version 1.0.0 cannot be uninstalled. So I over installed 0.9.9 again.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Sid-Shrunk:
Hi hendrixus,

just a blind shot. When I installed the 3.5 Version first time, I installed the cab from the second link in the first post(multilanguage). By that time I didn't know, this are only the language files. After installing the other cab (1st link) iFonz worked without any probs.

By the way. iFonz Weather feature already works(attatched picture is no fake and not manually set but automatically created)

I've done a mortscript(so it's no feature, but kind of addon) , based on the work from this thread.

What it does:

It loads actual weather and weatherforcast for next two days without any license costs (or somethink like that) from Yahoo.weather.com and saves them. You can set the destination city in the mortscript.

It modifies iFonz Registry Values to do the following with upper right icon at first page:

Change name of icon to show current temp, and highest and lowest prognosed temp for day​

Change picture to actual weather pic(either use S2U2 Pics or own pics in folder defined in script​

Pressing button will open browser defined in script and will load Yahoopage for weather of destination(citycode) you have set in script.​

The script will check internetconnection every hour(can be changed in script) and if available download and save weather. If connection not available it will take fitting picture from saved old forcast. Besides this it will change s2U2 User Weather.

What it doesn't by now. Changes while iFonz is running will only be shown, if iFonz is restartet or iFonz settings is startet and savebutton is pressed. I've added the option in script to automatically open iFonzsettings if weather has changed and iFonz is running. This works fine, but i don't like this much.

Sorry, I take back the request cause no more nescessairy, solved problem.

Will do some small changes before posting Mortscript soon(about tomorrow).

Notification Balloon Graphic

Does anyone know how to change the red circular notification balloon that appears when a message is received? I want to change the graphic/icon because the one that appears in iFonz is a bit uneven around the edges.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Keithj:
Thank you, many times over! iFonz is truly excellent - I like it far better than Touch Flow.

I was using Grumps' excellent package on my previous phone, but have now got iFonz working very well on my new one. It took some research to find all the links I needed - maybe I should write up the links to save others some time.

The only slight snag is that the e-mail icon calls up "Outlook e-mail" which I don't use, rather than my personal e-mail which I do. I have a few ideas to sort that out when I get the time.

PLEASE let us/me change the notification counter, the default graphic is really bad (see screenshot)!!!!!!

My other Problem: i use pocketcm for contacts and SMS. when i set that my pocketcm Icon should show SMS it works, but pocketcm opens with animation. Now the Problem is that when pocketcm opens with animation i can not write SMS, just a few words and than pocketcm slows down dramatically till it doesnt react anymore. You can test this with pocketcm. When i set my pocketcm icon to no animation, everything works fine, but then the icon shows of course no unreadSMS. So it would be nice, as you plan, that we can set animation on or off also for notification icons/buttons or maybe you find the bug within ifonz/pocketcm-SMS. (I think the animation picture still runnes/zoomes out in background) Thank you
