[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Ryano89:
This isn't a bug. Google changed the way Android handles gestures and the recents screen in Android 10 I believe. 3rd party launchers will have this delay on home and recents swipe. Neither the app developer, nor Samsung can do anything about it until Google decides to change it
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] ZayaanAhyaan:
Zero lag for me....been using it forever now on all my devices. Nova pime.View attachment 5662971
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] tsilva30:
I would not say a lag but there's a delay if you use gestures with 3rd party launchers when swipe and hold for recents. It happens in my S22.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Ryano89:
I wouldn't call it lag either, but gestures definitely work differently with 3rd party launchers now. This is a well known change that Google made.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] nlvraghavendra:
Yes. I've read this multiple times before. But many users like @ZayaanAhyaan report that they have zero delay. I'm wondering if it is a limitation with Android how it is working fine for some users?
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Ryano89:
It's technically not quite as fast as stock. My guess is that they don't notice it because they have been using it for so long. It's definitely real, you can Google the documentation on it. I deal with it on custom rims all the time
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] ZayaanAhyaan:
Are you sure you're on Nova prime? My Nova doesn't give me the option of having the stock single navigation bar . Also, the animation of swiping to go home and it goes to the app is not available on Prime.
[Samsung Galaxy A53 5G] Almite:
Anyone know if the Canadian version (‎SM-A536W) has OEM Unlock?

I'm thinking about purchasing this phone but I really want to be able to install a custom rom sometime in the future, I see that the US version has a locked bootloader even if purchasing a unlocked phone.

Here is a link to the actual phone on Amazon.ca

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy A53 5G] Deleted member 2092952:
I looked into the missing oem unlock a bunch today. Apparently, there's no real way to know for sure.

Even a more expensive recent Samsung phone had it get removed on an update and nothing would bring it back from an example I found (although that person didn't look into as I do below).

My A53 definitely doesn't have it and its flagged as what's known for it to be showing yet its not. UK may have it happen same as US. The chip used apparently doesn't matter. The guides for missing oem unlock out there all copied each other and they don't really know anything besides that it worked at times - it doesn't here.

Side point: I don't know if the following will work. Fastboot is disabled on my device (odin is used) so if patching recovery to enable fastboot is possible, it might help? I don't see how doing that would make oem unlock show up though so I feel like its not a complete picture, https://xdaforums.com/t/unlock-the-bootloader-and-install-gsi-rom.4453961/ but the wipe part in theory might (some bring that up as a thing though noted it also doesn't seem to work for some as well). I'm not wiping my device as I'm not unlocking since I need the official rom so not testing it to find out.

Further side point: On opening developer options menu, it does checks for oem unlock to know if it should show, enable, or disable the setting preference. eg A53

OemUnlockPreferenceController: enableUnlock : 1 = /dev/block/persistent / 2 = 1

Apparently, that may also be tied to Google FRP eg https://github.com/shunf4/magisk-blockfrpwriting/blob/master/README.md and https://android.googlesource.com/platform/frameworks/base/+/master/services/core/java/com/android/server/oemlock/OemLockService.java line 229 etc. and also https://www.samsung.com/nz/support/mobile-devices/what-is-google-frp/ and its also tied to some other things.

Also, the build.prop isn't even listing ro.oem_unlock_supported for me. I would think it may have to be there ...compared to my last Samsung which does have that listed https://source.android.com/devices/bootloader/locking_unlocking (adb shell getprop ro.oem_unlock_supported)

Its possible that the unlock ability will show up randomly. Its possible that it never will. Its possible ones that have it right now will have it go missing after updates.

So is the way of Samsung today :)

https://xdaforums.com/t/s22-ultra-exynos-2200-1tb-doesnt-support-oem-unlock.4410633/post-86645345

If its a requirement for you then it would be the better choice to choose another brand that's strong in allowing it. Samsung isn't. I don't know if its an accidental part of their security measures (difficult to deal with) or on purpose but its fickle with it.

Looks like its fickle anyway though with too much stuff needing to be checked and aligned with it showing in the first place because of Google. Google also didn't put in place any info to state why its disabled as the code decides lol. I love when devs do that /s.

That's everything I can find on the issue and my advice. I added all this info here as others can still see it and just used your post to let you know its iffy at best.
[Samsung Galaxy A53 5G] Almite:
Thanks for all the info you posted!, I've been sorta outa the loop on what's been going on with Samsung and changes they have done.

My current device is an old Galaxy S2 T989D running my own custom rom from 2014 heh, I don't really use phone much for anything really just figured it might be a good time to upgrade to something newer and saw the A53 for a pretty good price for a mid range phone, has more than ample features for me - really only thinking that I might want run a custom rom sometime after they no longer give security updates etc.

I did come across this info today which does seem to give a pretty good explanation of how much has changed over the years with the OEM Unlock and unlocking the bootloader with Samsung devices.
[Samsung Galaxy A53 5G] Deleted member 2092952:
Yeah. What I typed above was based on that and a lot more. However even that link is not the full picture.

Example "Samsung Galaxy devices that are sold in the USA with a Qualcomm Snapdragon SoC come with non-unlockable bootloaders (officially). And so, the OEM unlocking option does not exist on such devices."

The A53 I'm using has an exynos. So processor doesn't matter as oem unlock is missing with Samsung's exynos.

As well based on that quote you might see the country but CA, UK, etc can have it go missing or not found. There's no way to know for sure at all times.

Hence my post above. You just can't be sure if you can ever unlock or not. Unless someone finds a way that will do it and unless an update doesn't kill it. If you see it available then use it as it might go missing.

International models have the best chance though it seems but no one can guarantee what Samsung will do.
[Samsung Galaxy A53 5G] cursor18:
Hi, did you find an answer to this? I too have the canadian unlocked A53. But cannot see the OEM Unlock option in the Developers
[Samsung Galaxy A53 5G] Almite:
From what I found out online and even called Samsung (CA) about it they no longer allow the OEM Unlocking on any Canadian phones, I just ended up waiting and eventually bought the Pixel 8 Pro, pretty certain the only OEM Unlockable A53 is the EU Model and I didnt want to have to deal with possible warranty issues etc.

Presure & ETC
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] AthenaLod:
really nice, how about an addition for maps, just the like marsware's weather panel if you've ever used it, there they ask for the URL of the map image and they just keep fetching it.

Pocket Weather is the commercial name of SBSH's app....

You'd better find another name for this soft...

Why not :

Pocket Hurricane

Pocket Forecast

TTWWY : Take The Weather With You

TTWWU : Take The Weather With U

T2W2U : Same, but more like modern apps... ;) A_C

;)

Hope this will help...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] digidigi123:
The same here. I have only NET CF2.0, I think the app need CF3.5
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] davehutch:
I disagree

If we already have Marsware that doesn't need NET CF3.5, why not just keep this one nice and simple.

Once youo start adding features galore it just get too resource hungry (memory!)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] digitaldon37:
Missing DLLS

Sorry about that - I did not use the correct compiler options when compiling to the Pocket PC platform. I have recompiled and the DLLs were merged into the executable.

I will have to troubleshoot the CF3.5 - I didn't target that framework so it should not asking for that. It may be related to the missing DLLs issue, since both require the B4PPC compiler to use "optimized" options.

I have re-uploaded into post #1 - thanks for testing.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] digitaldon37:
Map suggestions

This sounds like an interesting idea. Do you have a URL for the marsware's weather panel? I am not familiar with this.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] digitaldon37:
Application Name

Thanks! I like "Pocket Forecast" and will use that (if it's not in use already). I wrote a wiki application called "Pocket Wiki" so I wanted to stick with the same naming convention.

I don't want to use any application names similar to the great programs A_C writes. I'm not worthy. :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] OceanSpray:
Alot weird stuff coming out missing \themes\conditions\

and some #.gif files if change the zip code

zip code not working and location code either

Missing CF3.5

I uninstalled Microsoft CF3.5 on my PDA and ran the updated ppcWeather (11/14/08 v.18) - it works for me. That said, applications seem to always work on the developer's systems all the time so that isn't much of a test.

Could you please retest with the updated version?

Thanks to everyone for their help and feedback.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] digitaldon37:
Thanks for catching that.

I just tested that and that seems to be a new bug after I recompiled with the "optimized settings" - I am not sure what is causing this because the desktop version doesn't do this. Same code, different target environments.

The weather.ini settings themeDir, httpTimeout, and refreshInterval are getting blanked, but the location ids are not. This is strange...

I am going to have to check with the Basic4ppc support team to see why this is doing this.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] OceanSpray:
Now i got zip code working need some setting

need Theme [default]

but still no icon

LOL need move \theme\default\condition folder out to \theme\

should work like charm and also the theme.ini i dont is that cause
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bluemetalaxe:
your new Version works now
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] digitaldon37:
Fix (uploaded v.19)

The code is reading a form textbox variable for the settings that were getting blanked out - I'm not sure why some are ok and others are not. As a work-around, I added code to check to see that there is a value for the form textbox before saving it. Uploaded v.19 and am pursuing this on the B4PPC forums.

Thanks for the testing and feedback!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] digitaldon37:
The first line in the "weather.ini" file should be "themeDir=default". If it says "themeDir=" then won't find the weather icons.

Thanks for the testing feedback.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] OceanSpray:
WOW v.19 work great now no error

misc. need

Multi-switch location

missing "%" on HUMIDITY

(personal) sry no offense dont like degree on WIND :o

Current and Forecast the "Close" can be change to "BACK" :D

delete zipcode or location wont delete cache file
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] chuma:
Very good program - thanks!

Take my fixed icons. they look more good in white or black background.

http://slil.ru/26333444

My ini:

and

Bugs:

- Most does not change a city. I choose Bangkok, but alwys shows Peter (unless hands ini not changed)

- Always go 2 internet then started (why not remember old weather info?)

- Weather details - CURRENT: the inscription "sunrise :..." - incorrect view

- Not work skin color

- In the absence of weather is not an icon (you can put NA icon frommy pack ...)

Feature need:

- Fast switching between the cities of (right-left d-pad, for example)

- Choose to update weather for all or update for concrete city

- Link to Web with a list of cities (GOOGLE helps you) =)

- need radiobutto "DO NOT update on start"

- need option - update when you connect to PC via AS

- In the skins add the ability to install jpeg instead background and buttons

- at weather.exe change icon or name of file (like "Wsynk") for difference with main file.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] OceanSpray:
Nice icon Chuma

Here is an updated theme.ini.txt file.

I tried to download the Spil theme form here

http://campusbbs.freehostia.com/doku.php?id=pocket_forecast

but with no success !?

I get here:http://www.freehostia.com/

Best regards.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] digitaldon37:
I split the theme_spil file into 2 zips - that seems to work now.

Question to all: for the current weather page, should we go with 50x50 icons or 48x48?

for the forecast page, should we go with 40x40 icons or 36x36?

Visually I don't think it matters but I want to make it easier for everyone to use any existing weather icons that they have.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] klaus_ch:
I would suggest following:

current weather 48*48

forecast 40*40

buttons 48*48

add/delete(+/-) 20*20

I confirm the download of the Spil theme wors now !

Best regards.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] digitaldon37:
.41 Developer's release

Changes

================================================

- Standardized image sizes:

* condition 48*48

* details 40*40

* buttons 48*48

* add/delete 20*20

- Added AppToDate Support (builds xml in \application data\ folder)

- Added cache check (display message for old cache)

- Increased location support from 5 to 10

This is an interim release, as soon as changes are finalized and tested I will upload to the main post.

I have not yet decided on the best way to roll over the weather date, so I'm displaying a message for now.

As always, feedback and suggestions are welcome.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Wolfkmann:
Hey Don,

I noticed something in the new version. When adding a new location by touching the green +, for the United States certain states lose pull-down menu to change the first lettor of the city. This happens for connecticut, delaware, Hawaii, Nevada, Rhode Island, Vermont, Washington DC, and wyoming.

Is descriptor name on the main page on the todo list?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] digitaldon37:
Interestingly, those states don't list their cities in perfect alphabetical order on the weather.yahoo.com site. For example, Delaware lists the city of Arden as the very last city - this breaks our code.

I will have to write some type of work-around...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] digitaldon37:
Attached is version .41.1 - but it is only a partial fix. Not only were the cities not always sorted by Yahoo, but these states are not listed in alpha sub-categories either like the ones that do work.

I'll have to code around that also.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Wolfkmann:
This new version seems to fix the city problem, and I like the slide bar to get to all ten cities. The problem is, on my phone at least, with the slide bar to the right in the locations window, I don't see the red delete button, only the green add button.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] klaus_ch:
Hi Wolfkmann,

The fact that for certain states there is no alphabetic list is due to the fact that there is no alphabetic list available in Yahoo, this depends on the total number of cities. Look at the two images below. The same behaviour also exists for other countries where you don't even have a states list.

Unfortunately, the last version does not solve the problem. I tried with the state of Nevada and the city of Zephyr Cove, you get the city of Coyot Springs. Will have a look at it.

For your display problem, what is the screen width in pixels?

Could you please post an image.

Best regards.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] digitaldon37:
Version .41.2

Attached are the latest builds plus updated language files for testing. The work-around I introduced in .41.1 had a bug where the wrong city would sometimes be returned; Klaus fixed that and did a couple of other tweaks.

After we fix the issue wolfkmann is having I'll upload a new developer's release on the main post.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Wolfkmann:
Here is a screenshot. I can touch where the delete button should be, and it will still delete the location, it just doesn't display the icon. The icons are 20 x 20. I was thinking of dropping them to 16 x 16, and seeing if that made a difference, but I havent yet. My screen is a 240 x 320 qvga.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] klaus_ch:
Can you please try the new version below?

Should fix the problem.

EDIT: removed zip file, posted a new one.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Wolfkmann:
Great, that fixed the problem withthe delete button. Here is a new problem. When I am looking at today's extended forecast, or the four day forecast, when I hit the back button it closes the program.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] klaus_ch:
Version 0.41.4

Sorry for having done some 'mess'.

In previous versions, when diplaying the 'detail' or 'fourcast' screen, after a weather update the main screen was systematically displayed, this is no more the case.

EDIT: removed zip file, posted a new one
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Wolfkmann:
Yup, this version fixes the back/close problem, Thanks. Everything works!

minor thing, I noticed that this version doesn't have the icon embedded in the .exe file.

Attached are my homemade add and delete buttons.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] klaus_ch:
I don't yet know why and when the developpment editor sometimes looses the icon file to embed it.

Here they are.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] digitaldon37:
[deleted - duplicate of klaus's reply]

[update] nice icons - if it's ok I'll include those with the next release
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] klaus_ch:
I had also played a bit with the add and delete buttons.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Wolfkmann:
Everything looks good in this version. You may include my icons. I am in the process of also turning all my realize style square icons into round (and maybe hexagon) icons.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] digitaldon37:
Release 1.1 / D.41

Since this has made its way to the freewarepocketpc.net site - I thought I'd roll the latest changes into a new release (1.1) - uploaded to the main post

The big change (not part of the program) is that I had to compress the cab so that the cab size is less than 500kb (limit at my free hosting site) - supposedly this only works on WM5 and above. There will be an optional ZIP file that can be copied directly for those running WM2003

1.1 (12/14/08)

====================================================================

- public release containing developer fixes d.39 to d.41

.41 (12/11/08)

====================================================================

- Added AppToDate support

- Added check for outdated cache (displays message only)

.40 (12/11/08) Klaus

====================================================================

- adapted image sizes to

condition 48*48

details 40*40

buttons 48*48

add/delete 20*20 the png images are still 16*16 in the gfx folder

- increased saved locations from 5 to 10

- panel messages in the middle of the screen (eliminate double redraw)

.39 (12/8/08)

====================================================================

- fix Russian language file

- fix fuzzy font (eliminated setTransparency)

Just installed this. Having problems with some locations.

When I try select Portugal I get the following error:

<quote> An error occurred on sub__main_browsesubregional.

Value does not fall within the expected range. Continue? YES / NO. <end quote>

What's causing this?

Also, is there a today plugin for this app?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] digitaldon37:
Thanks, good catch! I checked Yahoo weather for Portugal and it is listing "Tomas" twice. I have added a check for duplicates and uploaded the updated code on the main post.

There currently is not a plugin for this app.

I was thinking about the tomorrow becoming today issue. Is it possible to have the program check the device's internal clock, and at midnight move everything up one day, and just use the "na" icon for current forecast?

Or have you though of this, and it isn't as simple as it seems?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Mr.Okada:
Japanese Language

Good day,

I made Japanese language file as attached. :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] digitaldon37:
There are several things that need to be done in order to implement this, and the first was to get the program to recognize when the date rolls over (even if left running). In version 1.1 there is a new timer function to monitor this. I'm testing this over several days to see how it works, under conditions such as having the program in foreground, having it minimized, and with screen savers such as S2U

The second thing that needs to be done - that I'm currently working on - is how to store and save the weather data when it rolls over. Currently, the current forecast is in one data structure and the forecast is in another. It gets complicated to use current by jumping into the forecast (such as what happens on a date roll-over) so I'm having to move the most recent forecast into the current structure and then move each forecast day up (forecast day 2 becomes day 1, day 3 becomes day 2, etc)

I want to make sure everything is in synch so when the date rolls over, if you click on forecast that it looks right.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] digitaldon37:
Thanks! I'll add this to the release package.
