Hi chiefs,

I am trying to develop a small utility which will run when device is connected with activesync and update the forecast info in weather tab. Updating the database works ok but I have some other problems that someone may help.

When you run the application it updates the database file forecast_cache.db but weather tab does not get refreshed. It still shows the old values, however when you reset the device or restart TF3D (by removing from Today and re-adding it) weather tab shows the new values updated by my utility.

Does anyone can suggest some way to make the weather tab refresh itself ?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] k1sr:
Hi Ozkarah,

Nice work...!

Just guessing, but maybe the Weather tab does not read the database every time it is opened, and only does it on a refresh/update

Have you tried selecting update from the Weather tab after you have updated the database, but then disconnected from any data connection.

eg.

1. Use utility to update database

2. Disconnect from data connection

3. Hit Update on the weather tab to see if it picks up the data.

Just a thought...

Cheers
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Supertrooper:
I know mine updates when ever I go to the weather tab, it starts the update automatically.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] k1sr:
Yep, they all do that (standard setting), but that particular setting is a data hog, and is annoyning if you're not connected to any data caonnection...

ozkarah's trying to do something else like a daily update...

I gather you're in the US where you can get unlimited data contracts - where I'm from the setting you're talking about is an expensive one.

Cheers
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] ozkarah:
any ideas from chiefs?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] k1sr:
did you have any luck with my suggestion...?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] skamin:
Seems like a good feature to have, ozkarah.

I for one have a 5GB/month plan, so a periodic weather update which costs a few KB of data is what I would be very happy with, regardless of active connection (wireless or physical via ActiveSync).

I'm on HTC TP by the way.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] ozkarah:
unfortunately not. this was one of the first things I had tried. I only could manage it by restarting TF3D (removing and adding TF3D to Today itmes) or soft reset the device...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] casy2000:
Hi Ozkara,

I m updating my htc over night by addintimer ( gps, Podcast) and afterwards i reset it. So your little tool seems to be helpful for me to get the actual weater data. I couldn t accomplish to download the data with mortscript.

Is there any chance to get your too ?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] johansons:
Hi, im unable to update the weather via the internet connection.. Y is it so?

It will only be able to update when it download datas via phone line.. Its charging me crazy.. Any1 can help? Thx :)
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Rumball:
I put the attached mortscript together to automatically update manila weather and stocks when I activesync. I use PhoneAlarm to detect the activesync connection and automatically execute this script. Unfortunatley it won't work if the screen is locked (such as through S2U2).

I wish there was a way truly update the weather and the stocks in the background as suggested by the OP.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] k1sr:
I got tired of having to update manually, and installed SPB Mobile Shell - gotta say it's worth a look... it certainly isn't perfect, and there are definitely areas where TF3D is superior and vice versa...

All that being said - I prefer Mobile Shell - it's slightly more completed than TF3D
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps] Minister:
I have been looking for this for a long time. Thanks Rumball ! I think with this I can finally update weather via mortscript whenever PhoneAlarm switches profile at a specific time. Will try it out on my HD2.
[XPERIA X1 General] lukelasmf:
Let me first apologize. I've spent hours and hours trying to find a solution to this problem with no luck. I'm also sure I'm not posting this in the right place but I just can't look for the correct place anymore. Hopefully you'll have mercy on me...

I used SEUS to update my X1i. Since I have an X1i I used the UK update. There was an update available. I tried to install it but it stopped at 1%. SEUS told me to retry, I did. Still error. I've tried soft/hard resets. I spoke to SE customer service which was a joke. There answer is to send it in for repair.

Has anyone else had this problem? If so, were you able to fix it?

Thanks!

Again, My apologies. Thank you for moving the thread Mr. McGee.
[XPERIA X1 General] hypoh:
Flash it yourself. SEUS crapped on me too, but my x1 wasn't bricked. I don't know why people still use that trash to update, considering all the problems it causes.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=446070

If you're scared, then just send it to SE.
[XPERIA X1 General] alias_neo:
Well

I have been using the memory card method but I decided to use SEUS today for the new R2AA_10.

Worked fine for me with no problems. Surprising considering I'm running VIsta Ultimate 64bit and most other things don't work correctly.

Anyway, back to the point, did you have any luck using the SD card method of updating?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] jsmith_00:
hi all

hope some of you guys can help me out, i have been looking round here and am sorry if it has been looked at before, i have seen on some of your phone pics you have different icons on the top of the screen were can i get these from as the stdard ones are bit poor and these look better

Is there a way to stop the HD waking up at midnight?

Thanks
[Touch HD General] n3tfusion:
Same question .. ^^

It's a normal thing or not ? Don't know if the HD does that before installing/uninstalling TFDetacher ..
[Touch HD General] Psygnosis84:
well mine doesn't do this so it has to be a recent software you installed.
[Touch HD General] stiscooby:
I have seen several people mention it on here before but not so sure anyone had a solution?

Only thing I have installed on mine is G-Alarm?
[Touch HD General] inspireme87:
it's g-alarm thing and i dont see why it is a big deal to a lot of ppl. it's only like for one mins and then it goes back off.. WHAT IS THE BIG DEAL PPL. i dont get it :confused: anyway sorry i am not helping but had to take this off my mind

[Touch HD General] CutePinkSox:
I gave it hot cocoa that didn't work... still woke up at midnight so I tried sleeping pills... same thing again dead on midnight it wakes up - the hot bath however definitely did the job; problem is that it hasn't woken up since :P

Sorry I couldn't resist!
[Touch HD General] inspireme87:
again it's only for one min. dont you think you're throwing it a little out of proportion.. anyway i am used to bashing my head against a wall but i couldnt do it this time because of all the blood!!. this has been discussed before at least two times to the best of my recollection with no positive results so i am guessing you're going to have to take it with you inside the mattress
[Touch HD General] n3tfusion:
:D

Of course it's not a big deal, it's just a " strange" things .. :)

It's maybe a feeling but i found that my battery drain faster after midnight :o

So, sometimes i do a soft reset at 00:01 :p

I'll have to do some tests :D
[Touch HD General] athanaso77:
This is the reason...
[Touch HD General] Prof. Yaffle:
It's so that the notification queue can be rebuilt for the next day. It happens anyway in Windows Mobile but G-Alarm offers to extend the amount of time allowed for rebuilding as there's a known bug with the default setting that sometimes doesn't allow enough time for it to finish (15 seconds default and G-Alarm offers to alter it to 2 minutes iirc).
[Touch HD General] marasp:
Its biiig problem with that midnight wake

well it actually is BIG problem for me as it is not just for one minute.... somehow when it wakes at midnight it stays on and does not want go sleep again, overriding the settings which i set for keeping backlight for 1 min., and obviously as a result i get drained battery in the morning which is so frustrating as i do not have time to charge it again...so for me that is A BIIIG PROBLEM...

is it the only solution to take off g-alarm?? kind of like it and got so used that really do not want to part with it
[Touch HD General] stiscooby:
Thanks for the few who mentioned it seems to be G-Alarm.

inspireme87 - think you need to chill out my friend........... No, its not a BIG problem for me, I thougt I was just asking a simple question/query:rolleyes:

On a few occasions I notice it's got "stuck" and not gone back to sleep as mentioned above so I have to press the power button to make it sleep.
[Touch HD General] marasp:
well it's kind of a hard to press power button when you are actually asleep :). i do not want to let the phone to dictate my sleep time if you know what i mean.
[Touch HD General] Dmitry N:
http://www.ageye.de/index.php?s=galarm/manual/limitations#AlarmBug
[Touch HD General] stiscooby:
I fully agree.

I was talking about things from my point of view/issues I have experienced. The times I have noticed it failing to go to sleep, I have still been awake so noticed the light still on in the room so luckily didn't find my battery was flat in the morning.

I will remove G-Alarm to make sure it's the problem and see what happens.
[Touch HD General] t0k0m0k0:
I had the same problem... and I noticed that during the day a windows error occured, maybe from GAlarm? the problem is that several times I found my battery to 2 or 3% in the morning...

Thanks for the advice for Galarm (I didnt understood why the device was not shutting down by itself at midnight)
[Touch HD General] marasp:
i did found solution, though u need registry editor in order to make it work... change the value of the string in HKCU\Software\ageye\G-Alarm\MidnightWakeUp from True to False. from now on you will not be bothered by waking of your toy ;) and alarm will be working as normal... at least my does.
[Touch HD General] stiscooby:
Thanks for the tip I will give it a try ;)

Mind you most mornings now I am finding G-Alarm seems to hang/crash my phone? The first alarm goes off as expected, i press the snooze button then sometimes it will go off again and then hang.

The G-Alarm screen remains on phone, with the screen lit, and nothing responds, not even holding in the power button. I have to remove the battery.

So might just scrap it as it seems a bit "buggy".
[Touch HD General] Alexx_B:
I have same trouble and there is no G-Alarm app on my HD so I think I have problems with another app...
[Touch HD General] Kill_bill:
galarm is buggy in general. We need something better.
[Touch HD General] dao:
i found galarm to be just what i need - worked without a problem on my trinity but never updated it from v0.5. Haven't tried it yet on my hd - not needed the alarm as yet.
[Touch HD General] fortunz:
I love and depend on galarm. Didn't figure out it was the culprit until today. Mine also doesn't shut down at all after the midnight wakeup. I don't want to use the no midnight wakeup setting for fear of missing an alarm (or 5 -- my minimum for actually waking up).

Right now I'm exploring some way to (one time) schedule a (every) nightly standby trigger at 12:05am. I'm not even close to having figured out just how to do that, so any tips would be appreciated. I assume mortscript could script the standby action, but how to schedule the script or automate further scheduling, I haven't figured out.

Edit: I've been playing around with mortscript and an example of scheduling from prscott and have cooked up this:

Thanks to some help in the mortscript examples thread, and some testing, it is now fully functioning on my TP2. Run the script once to manually place one nights poweroff into the notifications. After that, it will reschedule itself every night when turns of your device.

Hi everyone,

I was @ the MWC for the MS Press Conference and I played a bit with a Diamond II with WM6.5 on and I just LOVE the new today plugin "Titanium". You have almost all the information you want on a single page.

So, I'd like to know if a genius developer here could recreate a today plugin similar to the WM6.5 one, like we have TouchFLO 3D look-a-like or HTC Cube look-a-like ?

I'm sure it could be a "best-downloader" in this site !

Thanks in advance !

I am building a Detroit Tigers theme for my own use, and thought I would throw it up here to see if anyone else was interested in downloading it when its finished. I plan on changing some of the other icons (calender for sure) and changing the top bar to a more "tiger" color (maybe orange).

2-24-09

ok cool im glad to see some interest! i will get back to work on it today. I have high hopes for the final look. And yes im going to make the clock bigger, or the arms smaller. keep checking back it should be done by the weekend.

3-1-09

DONE! I hope all of the tiger fans out there enjoy this theme I know I will.

If anyone has any problems with it please let me know. If anyone can think what would make it look even better let me know and I will see what I can do.

[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] blehman:
why is it 40 plus mb?
[G1 Themes and Wallpapers] menzo44:
40+mb

its 40+ mb because when i started to build it I built it on JF 1.42 not on a blank zip folder, or on top of another theme (like I should have) by the time I realized what i was doing it was too late to sw over. So when you download it, it is the whole JF 1.42 build not just the Theme. I hope I explained it right. I can assure you that it works though and there is nothing wrong with putting the whole thing on, it will just take a few more seconds to download and update to the phone. sorry, I hope people still use it because i spent a lot of time and effort on it, and I love it.

Hi all,

I am looking for a mount for a Universal that will allow me to attach it to a motorbike. Does anybody know whether such a thing exists?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Accessories] -Jonny-:
I bought one for my bike (pushbike) like this:

http://shop.ebay.co.uk/?_nkw=bike+phone+holder

However, it is not very secure, and I literally tie the Uni into place. Apart from that, it works well. (I have mountainbike and use off-road too).
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Accessories] -Jonny-:
Yes, I know it's an old thread... but not too old I hope ;)

I have just bought a new holder for my bike, and it's very good. It really does hold the Uni in place and I'm sure it'd be very secure for a motorbike too (I can off-road on my pushbike without it coming off).

It's made by Herbert Richter and here is where I bought mine from. (Herbert Richter also do car-mounts, and they are all interchangeable!).

Hope someone finds this useful!

It was a night unlike any other day,

I was standing on the edge of the cliff hugging the sunset - it kicked me in the head at about 40dB and asked me to leave her be so that she can finish her shift but alas, the moon stood her up.

I turned and walked in reverse. I fell. I fell again. I fell again. I was sick of falling so I got up when suddenly I felt myself surrounded. I felt right.

2 VR6 dogs, one brown, one left started negotiating with me a monologue and when they were done, they started running towards me with an ambition never seen that night. they worked on me for a few hours to think they're dogs. their work yielded my bones.

The cliff drew me towards itself. I pulled back but found it was charged with attractivity and i stayed hanging on it's lip. it screamed. I realized that David Copperfield is dead for a while now thus he cannot help me up.. and besides.. he's an asshole.

I grabbed the tongue of a mexican eggplant passing in its car at the same moment. assuming I prefered to stay alive, I decided to claim my innocence and ask the honorable eggplant to lift me up not foreseeing any dagner since an eggplant as all eggplants, is mute. Murphey decided to prove me wrong and the eggplant asked for a cigarette. to my surprise, I fell down.

Death was quick and insensitive, it cursed my existance in every possible way until i bled diet cola.

I returned to my home petit, and sprained my ankle. It hurt. As i sat to eat breakslow, my brain figured out that a mechanical catalogization of the day's happenings will certainly be preceived as a routine incident of prehistorical philanthropy and so, I will save the world. I sew a custome. returning to the cliff, I triple jumped from the cliff for inspiration but found that I am not strong enough as to flap my hands so to keep me in the air for more than a few moments and I banged my head on a sharp rock which calibrated its position to hit my brain a few moments before i landed.

A cornslice came out of an unhomogeneous door, stroke me a niner and lost itself to death.. poor corn.

spunked up, my decision to finish the day was fatal to my socks. I fell asleep to death.
