Yes on 70mph it happenes every 3-5 mins!

So lets say during that time i want to run a program that will make my backlight go off in 10 sec instead of regular backlight timeout (1min) .

Not only glare but it killing battery too !!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] oldsap:
won't you get speeding tickets at that speed? :D

will an application that completely turns off the backlight while it is running work for you? i'm not sure if i can code one but i'll try.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Jokes On You:
This is insane i come on to find an app that does exactly this Thank you :)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] NotLutzik:
Speed limit 65 :)

I was using pocket shield program and it has option there if you dont unlock with in 20sec phone will suspend....but it was buggy and i didnt really needed locking application so i got rid of it.

Thank you!

I always wanted a non sleep application for my wifi. My settings never seemed to work. Thanks for this app.

edit: and unfortunately my device still sleeps and I lose my wifi connection. Although the app is running.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] oldsap:
You don,t have the taskbar icon? the one with "DS"? and does your wifi turn on?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] oldsap:
Hi, make sure you don't have any auto locking application running like S2U2, etc..
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] redbandana:
I had htchome but i disabled it then soft reset still falls asleep. The only other program that is constantly in use is quickmenu I disabled that and soft reset and still falls asleep. I think my Tilt is cursed. I've tried every fix I could find. Some worked once but never permanently.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] garsim:
yes, without killing wifi.. or/and i don't know if it's possible: can u remap, when DontSleep is launched, poweroff button with screen turn off?

however now i've remapped a button to turn off only the the screen and it works very good :)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] oldsap:
glad to hear that worked!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] orb3000:
thanks a lot mate!

great app!!:D
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] stylez:
Thankyou, great little app Skyfire would require me tapping the screen all the time to watch movies, have to kill s2u2 but that's no hassle.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] hotrod101:
Testing on my ELfin (nothing else has worked so far) I remain optimistic :(

Edit: Tested: well well well, it kind of works. I have to disable S2U2 which is fine and as long as I don't shut off the screen manually, it keeps wifi alive (the first app I have ever tried (or tweaK) that does what it says it will do and it works on my device. The only thing is I have to let it keep the backlight on (dimmed but still on) I can live with this I guess but I would preferr to be able to turn backlight off to be able to squeeze extra battery life out of my music listening time.

I use TCPMP to listen to music from my home network and this is the first app that keeps the WIFI on and keeps my device from going to sleep at all. All other programs I have tried fail to do this and once wifi connection is lost, my device fails to play the next song (as it can't find it due to WIFI disconnection) Now I can listen to my music from my home network without loosing connection (but as I already mentioned ( I would like to have backlight be able to shut off while still maintaining the WIFI connection) This would be ideal *to save extra battery juice
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] oldsap:
i'm glad it worked on your devices guys. i'm working on making the device's backlight off when there is no user activity.

dontsleep + custom app?

Can you modify it to place a custom app instead of wifi?

I don't want my device to go to sleep when i'm using gps.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] oldsap:
you can use DontSleep instead of DontSleep Wifi
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] jeremy89632:
Great app!

My Windows Mobile just became smarter!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] rokx5107:
if i use dont sleep to keep wifi alive, i will need an app to turn screen off after an amount of time too, because if i turn screen off with a program, when i get a sms or phone call it turns screen on and doesnt turn off again and battery drains really quick.

anyone that know of a screen off program that can turn the screen off after a set time, similar to a screen saver. locking keys would be handy too.

would it be possible to add a function that acts like a screen saver where it turns the screen off after a chosen amount of time?

Q re a companion app that helps logon/agree to wifi "Terms of Service" webpages

oldsap, you seem to be the GO-TO person for this kind of utility. I found this thread via a Nitrogen thread and your sigfile. So, I hope it is okay if I hop off from this topic of "keep wifi on" to "connecting to wifi" in first-place.

thx!

Good, good, good.

Thanks a lot for that tool, I am using it since months and is one of the few tools which survives my constant flashing to newer ROMs.

More options however would be much appreciated.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] nuspieds:
Excellent app and a lifesaver!!! :)

I used it in a script to launch my GPS navigation program. As noted earlier, it would be a pain to go through the manual phone settings steps each time just before I launched my navigation app.

But now in my script, I launch DontSleep before I launch my navigation app.

I just used the regular DontSleep; I didn't need the wifi version.

Great app and thanks a lot!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Wikar:
Really great app, thanks!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] jilaxzone:
yes really great apps, since i usually using wifi to browsing, and the wifi just turn off when my device slept, then I have to reconnet the wifi and all apps used it. But with this apps, nothing will ever be the same again (:
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tsalta:
Yes i dont see any point to use this app also i can control my Sleep and now i have Wi FI on on sleep mode so when my phone sleep the WI FI dont turn off

If you ask me how im using Blackstone and i HD TOOLS you can download this app have Option to make this settings also in HD tweak have this option so all is fine and work.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] oldsap:
if you have no need for my app, or any app for that matter, there is no need to say negative things about it. i, and other app developers usually write apps for our own use, and would only want to share it here so that maybe someone might find them useful.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tsalta:
Im Sorry DUDE i never say something NEGATIVE about you or your APP i just say that this is includet in HD Tweaks and HD Settings Tool. So my Point is that is anyone have already installed some of this APPS not need to install this too...

Sorry Again, and i know that you did the app to help some peoples with the Sleep Problem i don`t mention to be rude or something like that.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] diablc:
This is a perfect program to go along with G-profile. You can have g-profile start Don'tSleep when you are in certain programs and then close it when you close the program. I will try it out and tell you how it works! :D
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Leddy:
Schap's advanced config also allows you to keep wifi, except it does allow your device to go to sleep. The wifi just stays on while the screen is powered off.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] AndiCP:
Feature request

Nice app! :)

But perfect would be an additional option to select if the backlight turning off should be prevented as well (for watching movies/tv).

Or maybe just in the non-WiFi version permanently prevent sleep and backlight off and prevent just sleep in the WiFi version.

I'd be really happy if you could make this possible!

greetz

Edit: Forget it, I realized that media player is doing this (backlight) on its own, only sleep mode is (was) the problem ;)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] sherpa1d:
This looks like it has great potential, specially if you can get some back light settings. I'm going to Afghanistan in June and plan to use Skype but once the phone goes to sleep, no incoming calls. If I could keep that running with the back light off, I could treat it like a phone and receive phone calls all day :)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] oldsap:
i think it will work for you coz it won't allow your phone to go to sleep so the backlight won't be totally off.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Zepiii:

Been looking for something like this for a while. It is half-working on my LG Incite. It starts OK, I can hide it and if I use regular applications it is OK.

Now, my biggest problem is iGO Amigo (it does not have a power control feature). When I start Amigo, even having NS running, if I do nothing the phone goes into sleep mode. :(

Dontsleep seems not to work on a Samsung OMNIA II 8000. After start, the OMNIA goes anyway in Sleep-Mode.

Any hint for me? Any update?

Nice app. Very useful. Thanks.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] angusc:
OldSap,

Nice little application, but I would like to close it using a command prompt in Mortscript, is it possible and if so what is the switch to close it?

I tried Run(Dontsleep Wifi.exe, "-close") but this does not work.

I also tried Kill(Dontsleep Wifi.exe) but that stops the process but the "DS" message is still there in the header and no way to get rid of it without a restart.

Also is it possible to have this without the "turn off Wifi on exit" as when i exit manually from it it then stops my auto Wifi on mode from working, i would just like to close DS and then leave the Wifi state as is.

Thanx for any feedback.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] angusc:
Bump, Bump....OldSap are you still out there?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] mda2-user:
It works on my HTC Touch device. When it´s enabled, the yellow status led will be flashing (how on new sms or so). Can i disable this flashing led notification?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] bart3385:
Here's my observation.

When the app is loaded, you can't close it or kill it using task manager. If you do, a part of it stays in the notification, and you can't remove it until you do soft reset.

The proper way to quit the app, is to access it via notification bar. Then click on the close button of the app.

Just my observation. Not exactly a problem if you know how to close it properly.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] angusc:
Currently I use the below MortScript to ''manually'' close the App using screen taps, it automates the shutdown but in a kind of backwards way.

If(ProcExists("DontSleep Wifi.exe"))

Sleep(1000)

MouseClick 171,17

Sleep(1500)

MouseClick 240,343

Sleep(1500)

MouseClick 80,611

Sleep(2000)

My device has 480x800 screen resolution so you would have to edit the x,y if you have a different screen res.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] mda2-user:
@bart3385: Tnx for your answer. But my problem is NOT when i will quit the application (or after this), the yellow led is flashing while the program is running.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] bart3385:
I have a theory. I'm not familiar with HTC Touch phone, so it's just a theory.

It's possible that Touch is programmed in such a way as to have the led blink whenever there are pending notifications, such as unread SMS, missed calls, appointments. Generally, it blinks all types of notifications. DontSleep app behaves like a notification whenever it's running. It tucks itself up in the notification bar, until accessed and dismissed. So probably, Touch interprets the behavior of DontSleep as one of the common notifications. That's why the blinking led.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] mda2-user:
@bart3385: Yes, i think so it is. For all (other Notifications) i can change this in Settings>Personal>Sounds & Notifications>Notifications. But there is no entry for this type of notification (all tested!), only for SMS, MMS and so on. What says the developer?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Kellicros:
hi oldsap, just a suggestion: can you please make this toggle-able? Say, one click on the app to turn on and another click to turn off. Nice app btw,much appreciated!

[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] rickyteddyb:
I know the difference between the two versions. I just want to know why so many are creating for just rc33 lite. Only fade to blue works with my regular rc33 version. Other then getting rid of notifications and ringtones (which i dont want to do) how can i make these themes work. Thanks.
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] topdnbass:
Its an issue with allocated space.

That's why the notifications and ringtones are removed in lite.

Maybe once theme devs start compressing more we wont need lite.
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] pablizzo:
just copy them to the media/audio directory ringdroid creates, ull save the phone mem space and have all ur ringtones/alarms/notifs
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] rickyteddyb:
Topdnbass, Thanks. Pablizzo how do i do that.
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] All~G1:
Its not that they are making it for RC33 lite, Lite was made to accomodate those themes. Larger, more full, themes are higher in size and need to have space in the OS to be run. The only way to work around that would be to have smaller/less developed themes or make room some other how
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] pablizzo:
check THIS thread and d/l the audio. install reingdroid (if not already installed), make a custom ringtone to create the folder and symlinks. Then copy the files you downloaded into sdcard/media/audio/
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] damnitpud:
It has nothing to do with more or less developed themes...my theme is pretty full, but i figured out by compressing the png files the theme will work with the full RC33, not only that but its a lot faster and more stable. Some of these other themes i have tried are very slow and clunky. I believe all of those images are loaded into ram, so the smaller the file size the better.
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] ultra spikey:
What are you using to compress your images?
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] damnitpud:
I use save for web & devices in in Photoshop CS4...PNG 24.
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] ultra spikey:
I used that too...but then found out it didnt compress that good. Someone posted a link to PNGOutWin somewhere here. It compresses the images a tad bit more, after doing it in PS. The only thing is, it's a trial version.
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] damnitpud:
Yeah i seen that post...problem with that though is if its a .9 will it keep the hidden border?
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] kron2:
the 9.png's don't look good when being compressed with pngoutwin . It compresses the images a tad bit more, and you can compresses all the images in a folder and folders in the folder but need to remove the 9.png's.
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] damnitpud:
i noticed to when you run the .9's thru Eclipse and compile the .9's it shrinks them to. But i think my next theme will need to run on RC33 lite. the fancier the graphics the less it will compress them...check these out at the bottom. The originals and the boring strait colors were 1kb or smaller.

The images are for the textfield in the contacts and dialer. when you press any numbers on the dialer.

btn_dial_textfield_pressed.9.png (2.6 KB)

png.gif btn_dial_textfield_selected.9.png (2.5 KB)

png.gif btn_dial_textfield_selected_full.9.png (2.7 KB)

png.gif btn_dial_delete_selected.9.png (2.5 KB)
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] k34m0n:
you can actually just create a folder named "audio" in the root of your sd card with a folder for "notifications" and one for "ringtones" and any media files located within will be read as such. atleast after i did a full whipe on mine and rooted it with rc33l thats all i did and it read everything automatically. this way i didnt have to install ringdroid and it still picks up custom ringtones and alerts.
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] JackD3ath:
You can also name the "audio " folder as "music" and still have the same effect.

This was actually the first thing i was able to figure out, due to my want for all my personal ringtones and notifications. As long as the folders in that folder are correctly named "ringtones", "notifications", and "alarms"
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] ivanmmj:
I know this is an old subject, but for compressing PNG's quickly, you can also try PNGGauntlet. It's freeware.

[G1 Android Development] Obsidiandesire:
Well today I took the plunge, and updated my UK G1 with RC33 Fw. It works flawlessly and im looking forward to fiddling with it (may get into development).

The tiny niggling thing of course, is that UK users are used to phone numbers aka

01942 554 554 or 0151 665 665

Americans are used to 115-555-555 (or something)

Which means that when It comes for us to dial a number, simple ones such as the above become 019-425-54554 which just looks strange

Im pretty sure theres no major changes needed to stop this. So, perhaps someone could help?

Thanks a million!

Hi all, i used to use the Phonex dialer for its big number buttons on the dialer (ik takes about 80% of the screen) because of my big thumbs.

I would prefer a program that's just a dialer. Nothing more or less. Phonex comes with a contactmanager etc etc.

By the search function i did not find any simular dialer or skin for the diamond, that what i found was qvga. Can someone point me in the good direction? Is there a big dialer for the diamond (vga)?

Does anyone have this problem?

i've had my phone for about a month now, never use sony ericsson panel that much except when im using wifi, and yesterday i just notice a bug on it.

Go to options (bottom right) then go to the launcher tab. Whenever im trying to add a speed dial the screen would just shows that error reporting thing saying that paneloption.exe has encountered a problem or something.

Is this a bug?

i never use the speed dial thing, so it shouldnt really be a problem...im just curious to know the cause...

so far the software that i have installed are :

all the panels

Slick

Xperia tweak

HTC enlarge start menu

Garmin Mobile XTSchaaps advance configuration tools

any of those might be conflicting?
[XPERIA X1 General] skycamefalling:
Something seems to be wrong with your phone but I can't say what it is.

The speed-dial is working without problems on my phone.

I use Xperia Tweak and HTC enlarge start menu too so these should not be conflicting.

Have you updated your firmware to R2A?

Maybe that would be a possible solution and it's always better running the latest software.
[XPERIA X1 General] mr_sheen:
yeaa...

Its not that important of a problem, im just crious to find the answer.

I've never touch that area before (Speed dial in the launcher thing) and i was just surprised to see that it just gave me an error report thing.

Im still running the R1A, im still a bit affraid to try any custom ROM..

although itje's ROM might be tempting me in the future..

Just a quick question though, do i lose all my contacts, program, information etc when i upgrade my ROM to R2A?

and im still running the old schaap advance config tool 2.0.2.0, might that be the problem? i'll try to update it later...
[XPERIA X1 General] skycamefalling:
You lose everything on the phone's memory when flashing to a new ROM.

All the things and programs on the storage card will still be there but you will have to make new links to the windows programs folder.

cheers mate...thanks for that...

i notice someone else is having same problem as me on this thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=477611&page=2
