Creating Shortcuts (somewhat advanced)

1.	Open NotePad on your PC

2.	Type a one line command to what the link points to

a.	The number before the # sign is the number of characters after the # sign

b.	The text following the # sign is the location of the command

i.	If this points to a file, it would look like “\windows\start menu\starfire.lnk”

ii.	Since there is a space in the location, use quotations

c.	The text after the file location is the paramters for the file; the below example pases the commands to open the SMS account and display it’s inbox location

3.	Save the file with .lnk at the end

19#:MSINBOX -service "SMS" -open "Inbox"

Creating MortScript Files and button vibration

To add vibration to any icon, it is really easy.

1. Download and install mortscript

2. On your PC open notepad

3. Type the vibration command:

Vibrate(200)

4. On the next line, type the location of the shortcut and any parameters start with

[B]Run("[/B]

and end with

[B]")[/B]

here is a shortcut to the calculator.lnk file

Run(“\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\tools\calc.lnk")

4a. If you need to add a parameter, like a phone number or website add a

,'[I]parameter goes here[/I]'

at the end; Here are some examples

Website to here

Vibrate(200)
Run(“\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Skyfire.lnk”, ‘http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=508429’)

Phone Number

Vibrate(200)
Run("\Program Files\vijay555\VJDialer.exe",'8881234567')

Edit the icons.xml file with pocket text editor

Vibrate(200)
Run("\Windows\Start Menu\Pocket Text Editor.lnk",'\iPhoneToday\icons.xml')

Open you games folder

Vibrate(200)
Run("\Windows\Start Menu\Folder Explorer.lnk",'\Windows\Start Menu\Games')

5. Now save the file as *.mscr; and make sure to change the type to call. Give it a name you will reconize, for the forum, i called it iPhoneToday.mscr

6. Copy the file to your phone, I recommend creating a folder called shortcuts on your storagecard, and just aim the icon at the *.mscr file.

Doing this not only vibrates the button, but will also eliminates double quotation issues a lot of people are running into.

MY XML EDITOR

I was unable to (no matter how much I tired or where I put the files) get PHM Notepad. I did find pocket text editor, which does work. Just copy the files to My Documents, and you can edit it from there. So far it works perfectly and saves the file correctly. File Attached

How to create a link to a phone number

I found using vj555 phone tools, you can have an icon call a phone number. You can download the phone tools here:

http://www.vijay555.com/

Just make sure you aim at the dialer.exe and set the phone number as a parameter. For Example

<icon name="Home" image="home.png" exec="\program files\vijay555\vjdialer.exe" parameters="8881234567" type="0" execAlt="" parametersAlt=""/>

When you hit the button, it will automatically dial that number. Remember no dashes in the phone number.

Create an icon to a website

To create a link to a website, select the program you want the site to open in, in mycase, I use Skyfire. Under the parameters, put the exact website. Here is my icon to this forum.

<icon name="X-divs" image="\iPhoneToday\icons\XDADevs2.png" exec="\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Skyfire.lnk" parameters="http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=508429" type="0" execAlt="" parametersAlt=""/>

Create an icon to a folder

Set the exe file at your file explorer and set the paramaters to the exact location of the file to open. This is my link to my games folder

<icon name="Icons" image="\iPhoneToday\icons\icons.png" exec="\Windows\Start Menu\File Explorer.lnk" parameters="\windows\start menu\programs\games\" type="0" execAlt="" parametersAlt=""/>

Create an icon to a SMS and E-mail

use the attached e-mail, outlook and SMS shortcut files, readSMS.lnk for text messages, use readHoptmail.lnk for hotmail, and use the outlook.zip (has outlook.lnk in it) for ActiveSync e-mails; do not add parameters if you use these links

Link an icon to a Call History

To link to call history (files attached):

1. Download the LaunchMSItem.zip

2. UnZip the LaunchMSItem.zip and copy the LaunchMSItem.exe to your phone; (I reccomend your storage card)

3. Edit your "phone" or "call" icon and set the type to "Missed calls"

4. Set the ExecuteAlt to LaunchMSItem.exe's location

5. Set the ParamsAlt to CALLHISTORY_ALL_CALLS

This will, when you have a missed call, goto call history
