I'm looking for a winmo replacement for a Palm app I used called Stop3Watch. This program allowed you to time 3 vehicles at the same time, and would log multiple laps for each vehicle. The program also allowed you to input a track length in miles and then would display average speed based on lap time. Is there anything equivalent for our Touch Pros?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] dark_lobito:
If you just want a stopwatch you can try SPB Time.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] theomni:
Here's a simple stopwatch, created by one of XDA's members, Ageye.

It's called G-Watch:

[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] antoniouslj:
There's another called StopTime I found just the other day...

Apparently it's a somewhat old app, but was created so using your fingers to start and stop is quite easy. Not only that, but you can have several timers going at the same time (up to 4).

Hi.

Are there any hardware differences that can influence GPS signal strength and speed of locking between Diamond and Raphael? I'm asking because my brother has Diamond and I have Raph, and he usually gets lock in a minute or two. Lock on my Raph takes rather tens of minutes if i get that damn lock at all.

Is this difference only because of ROM and radio version?
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] kk0813:
I guess both phones have same gps chip.

Are you both using ROM and radio version? Are you with the same service provider? Rom and radio version makes lot of difference in getting a gps fix. Check if your phone or your brothers phone has AGPS enabled. For me GPS fix is very fast when I have AGPS turned off. You can check this by going in settings/system/AGPS settings. If it's on for you disable it do a soft reset and then try again, this should help.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] ulukai3:
Thanks, we have the same service provider and we both don't use AGPS. Only difference is in the ROM and radio version. That's why i'm asking if hardware is exactly the same (or maybe if kebyoard on Raph could be a problem for gps).

Because if it's only the software, i would have to security unlock my Raph to be able to use that Diamond radio.

Hi,

Can I add more shell key on my HD? I means the four button on the bottom of HD, is it posibile to assign these keys directed to some program?
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] sk806:
Every hardware button but the home buttom can be reassigned using AeButton Plus (http://ae.inc.ru/aebplus.php). I have had problems with the Red phone button though, if I have AeButton handle it, it will not hang up a call (it is supposed to be able to do this).

If you search the "Blackstone" and/or "Themes..." forums, I believe there are several threads on this very issue that may also be of help.
[Touch HD General] Spir4:
Hi,

I know there are multiple skins around that changes the battery icon so it displays the percentage of charge left. But I'm searching for a skin that also changes the plug-icon that's being displayed while the device is charging to an icon that that displays a percentage that counts up while it's charging.

The more simple the better :)

I know there's something called Arielbattery that does the trick, but I don't really like the idea that the original icon is still there, and that Arielbattery puts a new icon right on top of it.

I've searched the whole forum, but I just can't find it:(

Anyone knows if that exists?

Thanks in advance :)
[Touch HD General] TSCrusader:
I cannot give you a real solution. But s2u2 shows battery charge also while its charging. So it should be possible.

Edit: Just saw that this thread is very old. Sry :)
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] IngmarS:
Hi all,

I've been leeching and surfing on this forum for quite a while now and never really took the time to post a thread when i had a question. Normally i'd search the entire place but in this case i just can't find a good solution.

So here is my first question:

A friend of mine got himself the SE- Xperia, I took a good look at it and liked the theme's a lot.

Once I received the files (Root;my documents) and tapped on one of them they didn't show up in the todayscreen wich provides .tsk themes like T-mobile1+2 etc.

Now I know I can do such things as installing a new ROM etc, but perhaps thats a little to much for such an issue.

I'm not expecting a complete walkthrough, but perhaps if someone could help me a little i'd appreciate it.

Many thanks and greets from The Netherlands
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] twolf:
Dindnt quite understood, you want just the wallpaper?

---edit---

This one works on mine, but the bars dont get flat black.... Nothing that cant be fixed, of course.

Got it from the full theme with extras, here:

[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] IngmarS:
Thank you very much,

I'll check that one out tommorrow to see if it works on my phone.

[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] rling:
Have a look at ThemeGenCE. It allows you to customise the tsk for your phone:

http://www.pocketpcfreewares.com/en/index.php?soft=1523
[Touch Dual, MDA Touch Plus ROM Development] IngmarS:
And still the .tsk file isn't showing up in the todayscreen (Start>Settings>Personal>Today>Appearance)

I got stuck at the third point:

) Connect your device to your desktop by ActiveSync and explore it.

2) Transfer all the unrar'd files and folders the My Documents folder of your Pocket PC, except the rlToday folder which should be transferred to the Program Files folder.

3) Apply the Xperia skin (Start>Settings>Personal>Today>Appearance).

4) Apply the Wisbar Advance skin (Start>Programs>Wisbar Advance>Theme>Use a Theme File): \My Documents\Wisbar Advance v2.x\Xperia\Xperia.skn

5) Apply the rlToday skin (Start>Settings>Personal>Today>Items>rlToday>Options): Skin: Xperia. Note that the download also contains WM6 style .png icons if you are using PPC2003SE/WM5 and want to use more modern looking shortcuts. If you don't live in Singapore, please edit the skin.xml file to the country of your choice (notepad works).

Anyone?

Thanks

I just flashed my phone with NFSFAN's Custom rom there are no predefine programs under the program list. I want to add GPS toggle and Igo8 icon that's installed on my storage card for easier access but I can't browse to it. Seems I can only add what's installed under Windows/Programs
[Touch CDMA General] jmitr:
To the best of my knowledge your problem is a generic one that has nothing to do with NFSFAN's ROM.

Everytime you flash a new ROM, generic or custom it wipes clean your windows start menu ( to "factory" state)

The programs installed on your SD card are still there, your just missing the shortcuts.

1. Use a file explorer of your choice and navigate to storage card/program files and all your installed programs should be there inside folders. The rest applies to the generic File explorer that comes with windows but any other program should be similiar.

2. go into a program folder, find the exe for the program (it's usually the one with the icon for the program). right click it with your stylus and select copy.

3. Next select menu (lower right soft key), under edit select "Paste shortcut"

4. Right click the shortcut, select either "cut" or "copy" (hint: using copy and leaving the shortcut allows you to skip the previous steps next time you flash a new ROM!!)

5. Navigate (using the up key) to Windows/start menu/program files and paste the shortcut there, for games there is a further directory. Also you can now rename the shortcut if you want.

6. Now open up the "all programs" soft key on the program tab of M2d, or select add and the program from you SD card should now be on the list.

For IGo8, I use TomTom. TT installs automatically when you insert the SD card into the ppc. After flashing a new ROM I just take my SD card out and then reinstall it. I am not sure if IGo8 works the same way or not but if the above steps prove frustrating for that, give it a shot.

It's a pain to go through this everytime you flash. It would be great if there was a tool to scan your SD card for programs and automaticaly install the proper shortcuts. There is none to the best of my knowledge. Then again, no one ever gets rewarded for being lazy.

Have fun, and if your new to this (especially flashing new ROMS), read...read...and read.

Best of luck
[Touch CDMA General] dannieboiz:
Wow, that's some detailed info. Thanks

I haven't tried your method yet, but I just remember that GPS toggle is actually a today plugin, NSFANS takes up the entire today screen, therefore it isn't visible.

I usually toggle my gps on before starting Igo and I get instant Sat lock.

As far as Igo8 Vs TT, I have both but I like the interface of Igo better. I don't have to reinstall anything after I flash. I just go to the Igo8 folder in my Storage card and execute the program. It runs off the storage card, there's nothing to install.
[Touch CDMA General] jmitr:
Cool, I've been meaning to try IGo myself sometime.

Not being able to use normal today plugins is a turn off for some. Only having one calendar line is another (M3d has a calendar tab). It's not NFSFANS's fault, that's Touch-flo 2d (Manila 2d). It is more a plugin itself than a whole new UI, it started on the diamond, was released on the Opal and Jade (Touch 3g) phones and ported to our devices by the devs here at XDA.

I love it personaly, it offers most users everything they need without going too deep into the actual winmo interface.....which is not to "touch" friendly.

I think a workable solution might be to see if you can put a shortcut to GPS toggle on the programs tab.

In the developement and Hacking section several devs were working on an m2d/today toggle that lets you toggle back and forth. There is also another app that tries to use the soft keys. Of course if you like M2d but need more than one prog tab, search "m2d operator tab" on this site. It is fully customizable and allows you to basically have 2 program tabs.

M2d operator tab:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=451623

Toggle :

http:///xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=464359

second today (M2d control):

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=447504

If M2d proves to be not for you, I suggest using the old today screen with schens HTTC customizer in place. It's worth it's weight in gold as well. I was using it untill M2d came out.

Cheers,
[Touch CDMA General] snowplow54:
well assuming you're using his newest one all you have to do is go to the program you want in the file explorer, tap and hold it, and then just tap "send shortcut to programs".

Don't you need to use astrogps launcher with iGO? I'm using NFS 1.25 and I need some sort of priming software for iGO and Tomtom, is there something else you are using?
[Touch CDMA General] jmitr:
I only use google maps (on my M2D search tab), and TomTom while driving.

I use no other program to prime at all.

I travel coast to coast with my job, I just use the search tab, or launch TomTom (never in the same order, sometimes only one or the other), and presto.....a fix within 10 seconds.

As I said in another thread, I was showing off my phone to my FO one day and let google maps run while we were departing Montreal. It showed us going down runway 28, turning eastbound and crossing the St. Lawrence. The only reason it quite was we were going to fast for google maps to update through the data connection. Later in cruise (at 23,000 ft) I launched TomTom, it was confused as heck (didn't know what road we were on!!!!), but it did show our proper Lat/Long (I confirmed it with the aircraft's FMS).

Been running smooth for a while, never a problem getting sats or a quick fix.

[Touch Cruise ROM Development] JamesPearson:
Hi Guys.

Been lurking for a while but this is my first post. I have tried to do as much self research as I can, lots of searches and link chasing etc but feel like I have gone as far as I can on my own. If I have missed something obvious, or just been plain stupid, then I apologise in advance, but we all got to make mistakes, right?

Ok, I have been trying to get weather Data for custom cities on my polaris (with manila2d). I have been able to edit the XML and the custom cities show up in the list in the weather tab, but when i try to update, it says unable to retrieve date. This only happens with the custom cities, all others work fine.

I have tried to follow various threads relating to editing the connection, both by connection setings, and pocket hosts but still have no luck.

I then tried to follow the various stages of N2A's thread, but it seems the only current working way involves a patched HTChome.dll, which I believe manila does not have?

I read into editing the registry to get weather to work in TF3D and tried to do something similar, but again, nothing.

I have managed to get it to work whilst running TF3D and WeatherDatabaseEditor but was not happy enough with the running(bit laggy) of TF3D to use it day to day so reverted back to 2D, and WDE does not work with 2D.

So I now seem stuck. At the moment I am runnin SPB shell (with weather) with a diamond theme, on a second today screen as a sort of work around, but its hardly perfect.

Have any of you guys got weather to work with Manila 2D, or have any sugestions for further reading?

Thanks for any help

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] HTCLeener:
I've almost successfully altered the manila files I wanted with the exception of the CAMERA and VIDEO ones. Perhaps one of you manila pro's could tell me what I'm doing wrong.

As seen below, in the Messaging Tab, I changed the 'new message' icon(2b45998a_manila) and when it is selected(150b5a39_manila/4b21931a_manila) successfully.

(SELECTED ITEM transitions to a smaller greyscale version of the icon I made)

I wanted to do the same for the CAMERA and VIDEO ones and I thought I had all the manila files covered but a weird thing keeps happening.. a double image happens when I select it? I thought maybe I'm not editing the right manila's but can't seem to find any other occurences of it.

​

For the CAMERA I edited:

4ac05905_manila - UP (not selected)

38f05467_manila - DOWN (selected)

For the VIDEO CAMERA I edited:

076e279a_manila - UP (not selected)

2de5febc_manila - DOWN (selected)

I thought maybe my transparancies on my images had been off but that seems to be okay also.

I've done so many edits I can't remember if I've edited any other occurences of the images but I can't seem to find it anywhere else, but it is possible.

Can anyone confirm that there are the only ones to be edited for those icons?

I've attached the manila's I edited as well as the images.

Anyone able to tell me what the dealyo? :confused:
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Chainfire:
From what you describe it seems like the smaller icon is drawn on top of the bigger one, instead of replacing it. Try giving the small icon a non-transparent background :)

Hi, I appear to have a small issue/bug with the Default HTC dialer on the Blackstone, when on the main dialer screen, the call history button (bottom left) appears to have an overlay of text that says "Call Hi...". This covers the whole button, and looks completely out of place, it is like a label/tag that shouldn't be there. I am unsure whether or not this is by default (as I can't remember if it was always like this) but it does not look correct nor does it fit the slick HTC style! I did install the HTC "phone slider" hotfix, but uninstalled as soon as I read that there were issues with it i uninstalled it.

Apologies if this has been posted previously, i searched but couldn't find anything remotely similar!

[General Questions and Answers] djzentz:
Hello all... I'm a total newbie to Windows Mobile and this site. Hopefully I've found the right place to post this. I have Win XP SP2 with activesync 4.5 and HTC touch pro (att fuze). My device connects to the PC fine but ONLY as a guest (tried this with someone else's device as well, same issue). I plugged my device into my co-workwer's PC and the got the option to set up a sync partnership. This option has never appeared on my PC. I've deleted/reinstalled activesync multiple times and tried other suggestions found here (checking & unchecking "advanced network functioality" and "ask about connection type" in USB to PC settings on the device). Prior to all of this I had software called Intelatrac installed on my PC. This is a "task tracking" program which uses activesync to connect to a Windows Mobile PDA device. I don't use this software in my current job so I uninstalled it. Somthing in the Intelatrac/Active sync set up is possibly the issue. I've connencted multiple devices to my PC and to another PC which has Intelatrac. NEVER is there an option to set up a partnership. Only guest connections automatically occur. All menu options in activesync except for "connection settings" are "grayed out" ("Syncronize", "Mobile Device", "Delete Moblie Device"). Any ideas what to look for? I have tried my IT department for the past month but have yet to find anyone who has a clue. Sorry for the long description.
[General Questions and Answers] egzthunder1:
Actually, long descriptions are best to identify problems :D

This is just a suggestion, but maybe this Intelatrac software left something in the registry that is being used by ActiveSync. My advise to you would be to first uninstall ActiveSync and then look for entries for this program in the registry and delete them if you find them. You could use autoruns to see if there are any processes/dll loading that shouldn't be there in the first place as well. Hope this helps...
