Wishlist:

1st: An own thread for this program so that wishes for your software and GCzII won't get mixed.

2nd: The possibility to download caches and copy them into the GCzII folder so that you can prepare everything on a computer.

I mean, GCzII works perfect for me and I don't really need a software on the computer because you can easily access everything on the mobile itself, BUT it could be a nice additional tool. In this first version it doesn't seem to do more than a usual explorer because the Cache-description for example looks exactly like the one on the mobile.

Cheers,

derlbear

Edit:

I don't really understand why you all need the "offline mode". I mostly download all the information including the static maps when I'm at home via Wifi and I don't need access to the internet when I'm caching. Can you explain this to me, please?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] :
Hello, derlbear,

i have explained my main problem with online mode earlier, and atm i am unable to change this.

On the other hand, i seem to work similar to you. When i am on WLAN, i tend to look for areas to go caching, then download all caches to my pda.

This gives a lot of cachefolders and lists, but each list is like an island.

But: sometimes you end up in an area between two islands (lists) and have the hunger for more caching:D

So, what to do? Load each list, sort after distance from actual position, then look in another list to see if there is one cache nearer.

Or: beg for offline mode, that should search in all the saved caches and create a new list...;)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] del4:
The main feature I'd like that is currently missing in GCzII is the ability to move waypoints around between cache lists, so I would use this app for that functionality until it comes to GCzII... Looks good so far!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] schiefersoft:
i agree with you, i can download all needed informations at home with my wifi or with my network (in the forest there is often no network :-) )

but for the static maps i must go to the description an then i can load all static maps by clicking on each placeholder for the static maps

this is what my viewer also can do on the pc... it downloads the static maps on the pc for my an then i can upload this on my device...

Note: my viewer is just a little tool for more conmfort on the pc...not a gczii replacement .-)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] derlbear:
Hmm maybe you should edit the settings in GCzII. On my device, GCzII downloads ALL static maps I checked in the Static maps menu.

When I search for caches and I see the list, I click on Menu --> Download all caches (Alle Caches downloaden) and then it downloads every cache including the static maps. When I don't do this I have to do the same as you.

Cheers,

derlbear
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] schiefersoft:
maybe because i have the SMARTPHONE (HTC S470 without Touchscreen version) and this is the reason that this not work at my device ??

at the moment i try to build a "Add this Cache to DB" Button on the PC - that may a usefull feature in the PC Viewer...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] CouchPotato:
I would like to test this also! :)

My wish for this tool or GCzII itself:

Possible deletion of Cachefolders which are not in any list on the device.

They are maybe archived or left behind after a cachetrip to another region, which i do not need anymore. Then i simply delete this (these) (old) list(s) and run the "search and automatic delete"-mode you or Gech program for us. :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] schiefersoft:
in the latest version of gczii is exactly that possible!!

Menu -> Cache List -> Cache Folder
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Gech:
I just say thank you for everything and sorry for late reaction. :D

Currently, I'm thinking about two new features.

1) Merge 2 cache lists into 1 new cache list.

2) Make a new cache list from all stored (downloaded) caches.

thanks

tom
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] :
Hi, Tom,

the second choice is absolutely perfect.

That is what i described earlier.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] CouchPotato:
Really automatically?

I think i have to check every cache i want to delete manually, or am i wrong?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] CouchPotato:
Fine! But please realise both options.

Option 2 can lead to a list, that is too big to load.

Did you think about export to Oziexplorer CE (OziCE)? I would really love that feature!

But please with different colours (as in my post here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=4270422&postcount=1522 - See attachment 2)

and some more info in the text field (GCcode (without leading "GC"), Difficulty/Terrain, Cachesize (M,S,R,L,U), decrypted Hint.)

Thank you very much!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Gech:
>> CouchPotato

Have you tried "Cache Folder" menu?

2) is similar idea. show all downloaded caches first then can select 1by1 or all to make a new cache list.

> 2) Make a new cache list from all stored (downloaded) caches.

thanks

tom
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Titus_Andronicus:
Idea 2 would be almost as good as offline mode. As for large lists, I regularly load a 400 cache list. Works a little slow when sorting (stilll faster than re-searching GC.com), but other than that it is fine.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] SecretAgentMan:
Are you out of your flippin' mind????? This thread is almost 200 pages long. Why are you hijacking this thread? Start your own!!! :confused:
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] CouchPotato:
For Pocket PC? Would be the best solution if Tom will not make it inside GCzII.

Please see my suggestions for export to OziCE regarding symbol, colours and texts.

But you should really make a new Thread for this helper application(s). Make it, give us a download location and give a link here in this thread.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] derlbear:
http://www.cachewolf.de/ Cachewolf can import many different formats and export it, also to OziExplorer. So you don't have to reinvent the wheel :)

Cheers,

derlbear
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] CouchPotato:
Sorry, but cachewolf is boring slow on my machine (HTC Touch HD).

If anybody would think, that it is enough if we have one software for one purpose, we would work with Lotus 1-2-3 and Wordperfect on MS-DOS.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Orbitter2:
A simple but effective feature missing: NotesSummary

Hello,

maybe this feature is allready in, but I coundn't find it.

Often I made traditional caches as a round. What I mean is, that there are i. e. 5 traditionals and a bonus cache. In every of this tradis there is a hint i.e. 'A=5'.

You have to find every of this caches to find the bonus.

I I find a cache, I write a note in this cache inside GCzII. To calculate the bonus coordinates I need the notes of all caches from this round. I don't know how the notes are stored.

Maybe an entry in the menu to open the notefile (or create a list) like this:

CaceName, GC Code,Note

Bilmer Runde 1,GC1Y4CE,A=xx

Bilmer Runde 2,GC1Y5HH,B=xx

Bilmer Runde 3,GC1Y5HW,C=xx

Bilmer Runde 4,GC1Y5J4,D=xx

Bilmer Runde 5,GC1Y5JA,E=xx

Bilmer Runde 6,GC1Y5JG,F=xx

Bilmer Runde 7,GC1Y5JQ,G=xx

Kleine Brücke 6, GC1WPCC, F=xx

In this list, you could find all the notes of all caches in the current list.

Please! I need this feature!

Regards,

Orbitter2 aka Zerventus
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] :
Hello, Orbiter,

this would be a nice feature, right.

Maybe a general option to group caches would be a good extension to this...

So you can group any caches belonging together, and all would share one Note.

On the other Hand: A Solver for often used Formulas in Multis would be a nice feature. One of my friends had a similar problem for a device he developed, here he used a page to enter up to 10 Values (in our case that would be the Bonus Numbers) and another one to enter the Formula.

The Result is realtime calculated based on the 10 Numbers entered.

What does the community think about this?

Feature: Ressource Management für Traffic Costs and Battery

I do love GCzII as it is, there are just two issues with my HTC Touch Diamond 2:

Cost of data traffic: In my contract I have a per-minute-rate for EDGE/HSDPA which is usually quite OK. But sometimes I do not notice, that I am still connected - and have to pay 60 mins. Online-Time for 2 Minutes usage.

Power consumption: GPS, Backlight and specially the usage of 3G/HSDPA causes the Battery to be empty after some hours. There are a number of tweaks flying around, but none of them worked satisfying here. So I would prefer a GCzII embedded solution.

So what I would like to have are two options,

1) SAVE COST: Disconnect EDGE/HSDPA automatically after cache-list-download and after cache-download (immediately or e.g. 20 seconds after completion). Re-connect automatically when needed.

2) SAVE BATTERY: Deactivate HSDPA = automatically switch from 3G/UMTS network (for HSDPA) to GSM network (EDGE) when data traffic is not used for some minutes. Re-Activate automatically when needed.

PS - Sorry, I did not read all the 200 pages first. If my request has been discussed already, just ignore it.

PPS - With the auto-disconnect-feature I could donate a part of the saved fees ;)

PPPS - I like the application as it is since it is efficiant to use with a clear GUI and self explaining funtionalities. I hope that additional features will not spoil this clear apperance.

PPPPS - Maybe the suggested energy/cost management functions are a issue for a seperate tool, which then, also includes the auto Activation/Deactivation and auto Connection/Disconnection for the other power and/or online-cost consuming radio equipment (Bluetooth, WiFi, GPS). This is something I absolutely miss in WindowsMobile. Each of the periphery and data-modes can auto-acitvate (always|ask user|never), auto-connect (auto|ask user|never), auto-disconnect (immediately|timer|ask user|never) and auto-deactivate (immediately|timer|ask user|never).
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] :
Afaik, this can not be handled by Programs, WindowsMobile does this itself.

But, as i have the same phone and similar issues:

I can give you some hints to solutions:

1) There flies around a program, called "CommManager 3G", this adds a button to the Comm-Manager to allow or forbid autoswitching GSM/HSPA (http://www.pocketpc.ch/htc-touch-di...schneller-wechsel-gsm-auto-3g.html#post317755)

2) MoDaCo "NoData" allows you to easily disable GPRS and HSPA Datatransfer saving you money when you accidently click on a cache (http://www.pocketpc.ch/smartphone-n...469-modaco-nodata-internetverbindung-aus.html)

3) With a little research you should find a registry entry to disconnect GPRS after a given time. (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=268397)

I havent tried 3) myself, but just because my contract is Cost-per-Data, so i have no problem being online all day long. I do not know a program to alter this behaviour, but if someone knows: please tell me...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] neopren66:
Hi.

Well...

1) Yes, I am using CommManager 3G. However - I need to switch manually. Continously operating the phone is inefficient when caching in the field. Auto-function would help al lot.

2) Yes, I use NoData as well. Same problem as 1)

3) Yes, "Advanced Config" offers an option. It tweaks the registry that data disconnects after e.g. 10 seconds. In principle this works - but GCzII does not reply anymore (hangs) after this auto-disconnect-tweak.

However - yes, Windows Mobile seems to be really weak in manageing power and costs.

Ciao nico can you help me solve the problem i have?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] giorgosm:
looks nice. getting some excepetions when opening some widgets.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] nir36:
nicolas, do you think there should be a difference performencewise due to it using flashlite instead of flash? should i start using this instead of the original FEW? and will the widgets i created be installable on this version as well?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] nicodega:
It looks better, but probably consumes a little more CPU (or maybe not..). This version also unloads and switches to 1% CPU use when an application covers the entire screen.

Widgets you had created are not compatible, however I've incorporated your widgets onto this release :) (proper credit is given on an About option for each widget ;))

EDIT: Just so you know, I will no longer support the original FEWidgets anymore.

The idea of this first release is to debug the app... as stated on first post, its beta. Could you tell me what widgets are throwing exceptions? (do you have WM 5 or 6?)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] spupuz:
in my case it crash while opening
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] nicodega:
Please post the exceptions information..
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] nicodega:
That error is shown on the Setup process... it will be fixed on the next release. However the aplication still installed correctly and you should be able to select it as a today plugin.

Errors (but not exceptions)

Using stock ATT HTC Fuze rom, found a few things. First in landscape mode the background doesnt fill the screen (which is fine if there is a different bg for landscape vs portrait in the settings) and all of the widgets on the screen disappear except the lock. The only other problem i've run into is that the diamond clock appeared to get stuck in the flipping animation, went away when I drug it off the screen and then back on. Finally, as a today plugin, there is a space left at the bottom of the screen between the WM border and the plugin. Its the only plugin selected so I dont know why its doing this. Overall nice work from the last version to this one!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] nicodega:
For the background, when on landscape (or on any page) select another background using the background switcher, and it'll change it only for that page.

I'll check the other errors, however all widgets drop fine on my omnia..
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] nicodega:
I've uploaded the sources. On the first post is the link.

I've also updated the version to 0.1.2.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] sracercelica:
Installed it on my TouchPro. I like the concept but it is way to buggy. For some reason when I chose full screen, I cant see any of the widgets. Also, the weather widget was not working, and a couple other widgets were non responsive -for example the quick dial widget wouldnt let me add any names.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] spupuz:
still i have got problems with 0.1.2 nico
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] nicodega:
I dont know if Fullscreen works when working as a today plugin.. its a Flash Lite option that I can't remove from the menu (IThink).

The Quick Dial works for me... are your contact names in english? (using latin characters), what version of flash Lite do you have? Window Mobile 6.1? there is a bug on this widget which when you select the trash bin for selecting a contact, when returning from delete mode it wont show the plus signs but that's all I detected...

:\ What version of Flash Lite are you using?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] nicodega:
Hmm, I'll check that. (I had misread your post)

I see the error now, I'll fix it later tonight. Thanks!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] larbke666:
And if you wanna change it to vibrate, you first have to put it on silent, and then on vibrate, otherwise it won't work :)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] nicodega:
Hmm for me it works :\.. do you have a VGA/WVGA device?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] larbke666:
QVGA, it's weird...

Suggestion: Can you add COPY & PASTE support to the configuration program
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] larbke666:
Here's how to get the weather working:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=emKShzOxH0g

Ofcourse you still need to drag the weather widget on the screen, (it fell of the video)

FEEL FREE TO ADD IT TO THE MAIN PAGE....

Btw, even when i browse from page to page and i get back to the main page with volume control on it, it gets reset to normal...
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] nicodega:
I think the widget configuration windows support Copy&Paste already, on any textbox. Tap and hold and the menu should popup.

EDIT: And thanks for the vid :)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] larbke666:
NP, i've seen some people asking for a video on your profile, so i thought, why not :p
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] larbke666:
Digital clock keeps flipping???? Any idea? :p
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] nicodega:
Yeah.. it did that to me too today :S I don't know why it does it.. I'll try to fix it later tonight.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] larbke666:
Could you also try to make a small digital clock? Like the date (the one without rectangular background)

BTW: my girlfriend just called me, when the call was finished, the volume control in your program resets itself again, i'm using it as a today plugin btw, maybe it has something to do with that, i'm not sure, but i hope you'll look into it today or tomorrow, and get it fixed :)

Failed to work

Hi!

I could not get this app to work on my Touch XL.

ROM: Dsixda Onyx 4.2 (as I remember)

Even after hard reset I install Flash and FEwidgets and when selected in today settings it freezes.

Any idea?

Thx
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] nicodega:
Did you install FlashLite 3.1 plugin or the standalone player? Do you have .NET Framework 3.5?

The first time you run the app it might take some time to boot (I don't think it'll be too much but perhaps on your device it's slower than on my omnia) because it'll install the widgets for your screen size.

Does it throw any errors, or the screen just freezes?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] ricethief:
Great App

Nice app, was finally able to get it to work on my Tilt with the 0.2.5 release. Only issue I've had is with getting sms messages while using as today plugin. I can send them just can't receive them if the today plugin is open. Other than that great app that has alot of potential. Thank you for your hard work.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] .dredd.:
Hi

Thanks for reply

Yes I installed Flash 3.1 ... but I don't know if the Flash you linked is maybe different from the one which has a specific topic here...

First time the app dropped some error messages and then I made a hardreset then installed all again and the app looked to be frozen... maybe there is a long widget installation time (of course much longer than for an Omnia :) I thought it frozen because even the wait cursor stopped animation.

Lastly I have NetCF 3.5

Will try again with a longer patience :)

Thanks again
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] larbke666:
I'm using the offical 3.1 from adobe which has a specific topic on here, and it's working almost fine, some small errors, but not as big as yours... So don't know what the problem is. I just think you have to have a little patience when loading it...

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] .dredd.:
Thank you for reply.

Downloaded this version also and try with it as well...
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] nicodega:
The zip files (without source) are already on the CAB. If you want the flash fla files download the program sources.. they are there including all the images.

The Flash Distributable player, as stated on the first post Won't Work for FEWidgets. That is because the player does not ship the ActiveX control for flash.. just a standalone player. You should use the Flash Lite Plugin linked on the first post for everything to work smoothly.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] larbke666:
Can you please write the Small Date file with Time instaed of date please? cause the clocks you have now are rather big, i would like a small clock... (or ofcourse add the Time to the Date so you get 23:14 09/03/2009 (without the rectangular background pls))
