Welcome back snempaa! Hope you had a nice weekend in Moscow and I am curious about the next Wifilocations version in the next weeks. Thanks for your work! :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] w00dst0ckX:
Thanx for that great app.

It would be nice if you could add a function to group cell ids.

Something like that:

Home (Wifi & Bluetooth ON)

- ID1

- ID2

Cinema (Ringer OFF)

- ID3

- ID4

Work (Bluetooth ON & Ringer OFF)

- ID5

- ID6

- ID7

I found a application that does similar things on symbian-phones: http://shop.psiloc.com/en/Application,65547,Psiloc+miniGPS,ScreenShots

Perhaps this helps you?

This is a great app, I will try it as soon as I can.

I had this kind of project in mind but no time to do it.

Thanks for this great work.

Uninstalled

Hello,

Thanx for that great job.

I uninstalled the program on my Blackstone, cause I didn't use it so far.

It seems that the startup registry key is still active after uninstalling.

Could anyone give me the path to erase it properly please?

Thank you

Bye

I'm sorry, but after using WifiLocations for a while I'm beginning to think gsm cells are simply too big to be used for switching wlan functionality on and off. My wlan is almost allways on (and thus using lots of energy) using my home and work gsm cells. Isn't there a way to narrow down the location more without using gps?

Maybe here in The Netherlands everything is just so darn close together... ;)

Request:

adding time window for switching on/of wifi (and ringer mode)

I want my phone to go "silent" at timewindow 2359-0700.

or wifi on, and sound of, at morning meeting from 0800 to 1000. (same cell-id as my office, and at office i want wifi off.)

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] johnchan78:
I found a bug... I added about 8 spots, and the program would get very, very slow... when clicking to add another new cell location, it would basically stall, for minutes... whole thing became non-responsive overall.

Today, it crashed on bootup as well after that.

Quite strange. I have now uninstalled it and will only add a few spots.

As an idea, when I'm at home I don't care if Bluetooth is on or off, but when I LEAVE home, I ALWAYS want the Bluetooth to be on (because I'll be using my bluetooth headset).

To put it a different way, I sometimes use the Bluetooth at home, sometimes to copy to other friend's phones, or to use my bluetooth headset on long calls, but sometimes I don't. However, I ALWAYS use bluetooth when i leave my home/cell area.

Is there any way to set it, so that if you LEAVE the cell location(s), to turn bluetooth ON, regardless if it is on before in the cell area?

Thanks in advance! Great program! Where do I donate btw?!

Only the added cells with Bluetooth turn OFF

Hello,

As there was no software like this one for windows mobile, my HTC Touch HD has all the time Bluetooth ON (I have a in-car headset).

Well, I'm trying to add only places that indicate I'm not using the bluetooth in conjuction with my car, for example my home, work, etc, but WifiLocations is not turning off the Bluetooth on those places.

I tried everything, Activate BT and Reverse BT Mode both ON, only Reverse BT Mode ON, and Activate BT plus Reverse BT Mode both OFF. I also restart the program to try to force these options but never get any luck.

Any ideas??

I suggest an option, to add Bluetooth Mode OFF to ensure that Bluetooth is in fact OFF on the chosen cell.

May I also give a sugestion to modify the name, as it no longer is a wifi only program but it embraces more options.

battery life

when the programs is running, there is an abnormal battery drain and heat on my htc tytn 2. the baterry finishes for about 12-15 hours when wifi is on. i dont check the option not to sleep on idle, so cant understand why.... maybe program is keeping some connection alive and it drains bettery

pls help, because the program is very usefull but cant be used with such a situation:confused:
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] johnchan78:
Well I identified a problem. It cannot add more than NINE cells. After that, the program becomes non-responsive. Can't add any more. Can't even delete.

Any ideas?

*UPDATE: i found if you terminate the process, then start the program again, it can start working... that means at some point it is crashing and not moving anymore... not sure what triggers it though. And I'm still not sure if I can add more than 9-10 cells... anyone tried?*

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] symetryk:
Hello,

I've installed WiFi locations on my HTC Touch HD. It works great, but there's one thing to verify.

The option "WiFi on in sleep-mode" works in opposite way - when it's checked, it breaks WiFi connection in sleep-mode. It keeps connection alive in sleep-mode when the option is not checked.

A couple of questions

Hi, great work this is just what I've been looking for. I have a couple of questions about it: I want to turn off bluetooth when in a cell on my list and turn it on when outside them for car hands free. for this do I need to tick both activate bluetooth and reverse bluetooth mode? also, will the phone make this switch even when it is sleeping as it would be great if it switched effortlessly when I got in the car. perhaps you could even be more specific and detect a bluetooth device eg a specific car to see whether to activate bluetooth - I'm not sure if this could be made to work in a similar way to WiFi?

Thanks again for all your work.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] nmeister:
bump. awesome idea, still hoping someone can help with cdma cell id.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] thierryb:
First: thank you.

I am trying it on my xda Flame.

It detects cells, but I have just one cell now. I will pay attention to the limit of 8.

It does not start bluetooth or wifi or does not change the ringtone. Even if I stop and start again Wifilocation.

I have tried the option to start an application. I have selected one using the ... button. An ok appears in the input box. I tick the option and save. Then when I edit again the cell id, the tick is unticked.

And yes, it should be good if the systray icon should be an option.

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Jadel:
Hi snempaa,

Great work! I tested it on the Himalaya but it didn"t work, though I didn't expect it would because of our specific Ril.DLL (Google Maps/My Location doesn't work on ours either due to the need for it to read CellID). I did have a thought though:

I was previously going to design a program like this that would send a "My Text" message once it read the correct CellID. There are lots of uses for it:

1) You could send an SMS home automatically letting people know you are close to home, so dinner is ready when you get there! lol.

2) If you are into home automation like me, you can send an SMS home that would automatically begin devices (switch TV on, aircon or heater on, and boil water for coffee, lol)

Just a thought...Cheers!

Disabling wifi from going to sleep mode in Sprint Mogul (HTC PPC6800 CDMA) wm6.1

This is a great program. Is there anyway that you can create a future version that will also work for CDMA phones such as my Sprint Mogul (HTC PPC6800) running on wm6.1?

I really like to use Skype voip on my PDA when I am working in my lab because Sprint does not have indoor signal there, so I am forced to put the phone on the roaming only mode. However, Sprint will terminate my contract if I roam too much, and unfortunately, Sprint does not have the free wifi calls like T-Mobile.

My PDA does have a physical toggle switch to turn on the wifi, but the wifi goes to sleep when my phone's screen turns off and the phone goes into stand by. If the wifi is off, people cannot reach me through Skype. There is no way for me to force the wifi to not go into sleep when the phone's screen goes off, so I was hoping this WifiLocations would not only turn on the wifi but also prevent the wifi from going to sleep when the phone's screen goes off.

Can you help me out here? Thank you

Nice app! But on Samsung SGH i780 it doesn't switch Ringer mode at least :( I tihnk this issue related to not updating cell-id in mainform.

I have tried to switch off the ringer at some place. Have tried both default 60 sec interval and 20 sec: no changes after this interval passed when WifiLocations v0.6 is running in background (Start and Hide). No problem if it runs once: works okay with determinimg Cell-ID and switching features on/off.

Feature request:

it will be very useful to have an option to return Ringer settings to previous state after leaving Cell ID, similar to "Close Application on Cell-exit".

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] eTomm:
Hello, suggestion

Hello, i began to use this software cause i was interested in location based profiling. It is good for what i could learn, but i would like one or two feature more if it is possible:

1) Cell grouping, or the ability to group some cells to behave as one (and maybe also a cell can stay inside more group would be perfect)

2) Default settings, if a cell is unknown default settings are applyed.

3) Operator settings: i don't know if from a cell u can recognize the operator. If so would be good to give special settings and default settings.

I noticed the program last version is 8 months old. So if its developing has stopped i would like to continue it, if it is a language that i know.

Hear you soon,

I came here looking for a program just like this. I'm happy to see it under development here.

I would also request GPS coordinate support (CDMA user here). It would also allow me to mine POI databases to add additional locations, like turn off ringer while in a theater.

Additionally I think being able to specify a radius (area) around the coordinate would be useful.

thanks,

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] smotrs:
I've read several posts that came close to what I'm thinking after seeing these three pieces of conversation. But I didn't notice anyone suggesting it after 14 pages.

Is there anyway for the software to detect the presence of an already paired BT device rather then the cell tower? For instance, since a headset or the bluetooth device in a car is already paired, it tends to broadcast a signal when it's turned on. If the software could detect that signal and activate bluetooth at that point, you wouldn't have to worry about cell towers on a 300 mile trip and possibly losing your BT connection.

Anyway, great piece of software, look forward to a CDMA resolution.

You can add another error:

- "Run Application" doesn't work. When you add an .exe file, it writes "ok" in the box, but it doesn't save it (When you re-enter the edit screen, you see that it wasn't saved).

A nice feature would be to turn off wifi after a certain time.

THis way you can enter a room and update email/weather and let is turn off wifi so that the battery isn't drained.

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] frenchglen:
What a shame.

I can't use this brilliant app because of its unacceptable system tray icon on the today screen - which ruins my today screen which is the dominant part of my phone experience (and for most other people)! :mad:

I found no way of properly hiding the systray from home screen (TrayDisplay does NOT work on WM6.5 and probaby WM6 too) - the only way is for it to be removed from WifiLocations!

Any chance of updating this and getting rid of the horrible systray icon??? :(

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Minkus:
Hi,

Just a quick note for anyone still struggling with the 'WiFi on in sleep mode' setting - from my own personal experience on an HTC HD2, it seems as if this setting has no effect whichever way you set it in version 0.6, but if you are testing it, you should be aware of two other settings which might be affecting your device, and stopping it from working the way you expect.

The first is that if you have a 'push' email account enabled (e.g. Exchange ActiveSync, Gmail, Windows Live, set to receive 'As items arrive'), then the WiFi will *never* switch off in standby, no matter what you setting you have in WifiLocations, as described in this post:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=7830517&postcount=29

If you want Wifi to switch off in sleep mode by default, you'll need to set the sync schedule to 'Every x minutes' or 'Manually' to get it to work - this may be the reason why a lot of people are struggling. (Don't worry about the other setting mentioned in the post above, unless you are interested in your device never going into full standby).

The other thing you should be aware of is that there is a registry option set by default which means that when you put the device into standby with Wifi enabled, the HTC will wait for a further 30 seconds or so after you pressed the standby button before *actually* switching the WiFi off- this is called 'SuspendOffDelayInterval' and is described in this post:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=8414771&postcount=31

This means if you are testing the device to see if the setting in WifiLocations has worked, you should always wait for at least 30 seconds after putting the device into standby for the wireless connection to be switched off, as otherwise you will hit into this 'grace' period and the wireless will still be on anyway. Again, I wonder if this might be the reason why some people think that WifiLocations is keeping their wireless on, whereas in fact they are just not waiting long enough.

I hope this helps, and would like to see a new version of Wifilocations released soon, as it's a great little app!

Kind regards,

Chris Hill
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] GaylordX:

it seems that this app is no more under development. if you want and also can use CHT, then you can use CHTS + CHTSLoco. (link in my signature). It can do the things also as well not only for cell, also more exact with using Wifi if necessary and for gsm & cdma.

[Asus Zenfone 9] hillbicks:
Hey guys,

I got the Zenfone 9 yesterday and I'm already thinking about returning it. Main pain point at the moment is the Asus launcher, or rather the gesture navigation. Swiping left and right to switch between the applications is not working well for me. I'd say only half of the swipes (left or right) are actually changing the app. I'm pretty sure that I'm not too clumsy, since I don't have any problems on my Pixel 5 with the gesture navigation. Like I said, sometimes it works for a couple of swipes in a row, then it just stops changing apps. Then it works again.

I found 1 thread on the asus forums where a user had similar problem with the button navigation, without any real solution.

I also tried a different launcher (Nova and Neo Launcher), which of course suffers from the third party launcher bug (home screen blank for a second or just not registering clicks for a brief moment), so using another launcher is not an option and the problem with the swiping is present there as well.

Anybody else have this problem? Anything I can change?

PS: I had to do a wipe data via bootloader since the phone was stuck in a bootloop upon first boot, so I'm not offf to a good start here with this phone.
[Asus Zenfone 9] Yoodj:
Use a case and tell us. Maybe a problem of palm rejection...
[Asus Zenfone 9] hillbicks:
Using a case doesn't make a difference. I also have this problem when the phone is just laying on a table and I'm using just one finger to swipe on the bar.

After searching some more, I'm pretty sure that it is a defect. This issue is so obvious on my phone, I'm pretty sure it is a defective unit.

I guess I'll be returning this phone then......

[Redmi Note 9 Pro (International Model) General and] mastrobottega_enf:
Hello there,

I'm new and I need your advice.

I own a Redmi Note 9 Pro (global version), and I became desatified with MIUI.

I can no longer tolerate ads on a phone I paid for, dual unnremovable apps eating up space, and the dark theme not working in many apps.

So here's my question,

would installing Android 12 (stock version) fix all the issues I had before? Will everything work correctly, i.e. the camera, GPS, NFC, and the other basic utilities?

Should I worry about battery life?

Has anyone done this before?

Thanks for your time
