Task manager = "26#:MSTASKMGR?:taskmgrapp" (without the quotes, use as contents for taskmanager.txt, then rename to taskmanager.lnk & create an Androkkid shortcut to it). There's also a running task widget.

There are several widgets (WMDProfile & WMDClockPlus) that inlude the option to cycle between speaker on, vibrate & silent.

As for "remove programs", etc. in the system settings, I don't know of anything in Androkkid that does that. However, I found an app called xTask (right here on xda-developers) that does task manager stuff, shows running processes & apps, & allows access to the control panel stuff (system settings, personal settings, connections, etc.). Because it is so jam packed with capabilities, it's a little complex & takes a bit of getting used to. But it's truly a thing of beauty.

As for not wanting to put a lot on your home page, don't forget that you can have as many pages as you need & can put whatever you need wherever you need. But I wasn't talking about that. With bare WM, depending on which version you have, there's a start button at the top or bottom left that accesses your menu. In Androkkid, the pull up tab is the same thing. But it's scrollable, strictly alphabetical, & only includes apps. You'll only see what's there if you pull it up.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] dni63:
yea, xTask really help :)

i didn't see the attached shortcuts.txt on #1, it's really helpful :D

only one more problem :p what about call history..

i've tried to google it, but find nothing until now...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] kraski:
The last one depends one your phone. I have a Tilt2, AT&T's version of the Touch Pro 2. I just hit the hardware call button & it'll bring up the dialer & your most recent calls (both inbound & outbound). The center button on the bottom bar toggles whether the dialer covers part of that list or not. That's one feature that Pointui does nicely. It has an onscreen button to bring up a call history list that shows inbound & outbound, etc. separately & gives a total count. It's not a feature I use much, but it's a nice touch. I would imagine that could be done with a widget. Or there may be an app that does that.

Theme, image, icon need to be more smooth

Hi, ssj5trunks!

Thanks for your android UI!

My phone screen is QVGA, I like androdkid's style but edges of image, icon is not smooth like Spb Mobile Shell.

Why don't you make it more smooth ?:rolleyes:;)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] kraski:
Just an interesting note. Freewarepocketpc.net has Androkkid for download. I just put a review on there, yesterday. The stats say there's over 60,000 copies downloaded. I wonder how few of those know about support, here. :rolleyes:
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] fireant:
I also agree with this. Androkkid is not complete without landscape mode. I have tried PointUI, Infinity UI, ThrottleLauncher, IphoneToday but this is my favorite launcher! Landscape support would make it more complete.

I hope you continue your good work ssj5trunks!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] kraski:
I just remembered another one. This version includes folders, but you can only use the included folder icon. The next version is supposed to include the ability to select the icon for each folder. There are icon sets with lots of choices for folders. I'd really like to be able to differentiate the nature of each folder.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] chumpster:
You can...

I posted this on post 985-987 of this thread. It is a roundabout way of doing this, and a future release where this can be done in a much more straight forward manner would help.

So instead of searching for the thread, here it is:

You actually can change the folder to an icon that you chose. It is actually a roundabout method of doing this.

1. Add the folder icon.

2. Drag the folder icon to the edit.

3. on the "Type" pull down, change it to "Normal"; after you do this, the "Image" line should no longer be greyed-out. You should be able to point it to any icon you have saved on your device.

4. After you selected the image, change the "Type" pull down back to folder, hit "ok" and you are done.

Keep this in mind. You have to start this with a folder icon -> normal icon -> folder icon.

DO NOT start with normal icon -> folder icon!!! This will cause Androkkid to crash and resets your setting.ini file (I learned this the hard way)

And as a precaution, I would make a copy of the setting.ini file so that all the work put in to arrange the Androkkid is not lost.

Hope that helps.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] kraski:
It does. Thanks. If you've seen Lechu's Firestorm icons in the WM Themes forum section, he has a nice set of folders. I'm going to see how well they shrink from 128x128.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] chumpster:
I am glad I can help.

Thanks for showing me this icon set. It looks really nice... it is kind of tempting me to change some of my icons...:rolleyes:

help

You add video installation please
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] rast4man:
I love this app and it runs fantastic on my HTC Touch Diamond. My only question is this:

How can I get it in the startup folder in order for it to load with WM 6.1 so I don't have to launch the Androkkid program each time the phone turns on?

Is there an easy way to just get it to load automatically with the phone?

Thanks,

Rob
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] kraski:
When you run Androkkid, go into settings. One of the checkboxes is for Androkkid starting with WM. It'll restart, after you save your settings. Then, the next time you start your phone, it should automatically start.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] kraski:
We seem to be getting a new batch of people finding Androkkid. And, sometimes, just telling them to search through the 109 pages in this thread is not the kindest or friendliest way to get someone the info they need. So, here's a very brief requested review of using special shortcuts & setting up an email link.

1) In the first message in this thread, there's a file attached called shortcuts.txt. Download that file. Each line is a special shortcut that will function in Androkkid.

2) To use one of those shortcuts, either copy & paste the line you want into Notepad on your computer or open shortcuts.txt in Notepad & delete all the other lines. You then want to save that with a filename that will help you recall what function it will perform. So, an email link (if you're only doing one email account on your phone) might be saved as email.txt. You can then rename it to email.lnk & you have your link file. I keep all my special link files in one folder on my phone, so I know where to find them.

3) Our email example. The generic shortcut line is 20#"\Windows\tmail.exe"-service "ActiveSync" . When you set up your email account, if it's one of the email services like Hotmail, Yahoo or Gmail, your phone will set up an appropriate set of folders & parameters. Whatever the name for that service is will replace ActiveSync in the quotes. Once you have the email link created & modified to your account, put it on your phone. With Androkkid running, tap & hold the page you want that link to show on. Tap the first menu item (Add...), then choose Shortcut. Navigated to your file "email.lnk" & choose it. That'll get you an envelope link on your desktop that can be moved to wherever you want it. Drag that to the edit box on the left side of the bottombar. This will open an editing box. Notice the "Type" window is labelled Normal. That state allows the link to access your email, but nothing else. That dialogue box has a list of choices. In this case, you want to select Mail, then tap OK on the bottombar. The email link will be back on your phone's desktop where you want it, but now has the ability to display a count bubble of the number of unread emails.

4) Other links can be fashioned in similar manner. Some may require installing a particular app to get a specialized function. Having already said it's not friendly or helpful to make you read all 109 pages of messages, now I'm going to suggest doing just that, along with the accompanying Theme & Widget threads. There are lots of helpful tips & hints spread throughout, plus themes, widgets & icons. It's worth the time & effort. Androkkid is about the most flexible UI I've seen to get it to look & work just the way you want your phone to be. So, have fun!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] kraski:
I have another feature request for Simo or one of the Androkkid platform developers. Teacher1960 & others have created some pretty neat icon sets that work well in Androkkid. But, each time you change themes, the only way to change icons is manually...one at a time. I'd bet there are lots of us who don't have any more time to do that than I do. :rolleyes:

I thought of two ways that could be done. One is on the settings page where the theme is specified -- include an option to specify the icon directory that you want to use. The other would be for a developer to create an app or script to copy a whole set of icons to a specified folder. As long as the icons in all sets use the same icon names, I'd expect recycling Androkkid with a new theme should then display whatever set has been copied to the icons folder. In any case, shortcuts that haven't been given a custom icon should still be able to display the app's own icon.

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] essequamvideri7:
I was using iTask for a long time but finally came over to Androkkid. I found I was able to use all my icons with increased functionality. The only problem I have found so far is that the QVGA weather widgets don't look good. <see below>

If anyone has an information for making the weather look better I am all ears.

The only other app that I haven't had time to find is a good RSS Reader. I could just use IE but iTask actually had a nice RSS Reader that I liked and I was hoping for something similar.

Anyway this is a great app and I look forward to following this thread.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] incite40:
I have a question for all Androkkid users... I have a icon set up on the home page that is set up under type as "phone" and the link is set to the iContact recent page. The icon works great until I have a missed call. When a missed call comes in and the icon shows the little bubble indicating the missed call, when I hit the icon to view the number it opens to the standard missed call list and not the iContact recents page.

How can I fix this..Any help would be great!

Thanks

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] EgomaniacIII:
Where'd you get that weather widget essequamvideri7? Mine didn't come preinstalled with it. Also, when I open my messaging app (HD2 messaging) it won't show because androkkid stays on top, any solution, or another app to use instead maybe?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mchaves44:
never been able to successfully use androkkid (any version). It will always crash after some period of time for this reason or that reason...

i've installed to device memory, plenty of room for stuff to work etc..

I would use androkkid if it didn't crash and if it's icons were not fuzzy :D

just sayin..

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] yamozander:

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] kraski:
Androkkid is an Android-like UI for WinMo. So, if you're running it & have a Matrix theme or wallpaper, you should be fine.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] rast4man:
I installed the Android UI and it looks really sweet. However, I was having a really tough time with functionality using it. Once I got all the icons arranged the way I wanted on my HTC Touch Diamond, I simply couldn't get the majority of my programs to work properly.

I think I'm going to try once more just to make some adjustments.

Great job on the app though.

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] billybag:
look into "quick menu" i use it, love it, and it helps with the above problem
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] billybag:
I love this shell so much. The loading screen gets annoying though. You should try and pretty it up a bit. Also a convenient task switcher/manager that maybe drops down from the top bar would be IDEAL (i currently use QuickMenu. their is also TMan). Right now i have been minimizing Androkkid to use QuickMenu from sense to switch between tasks. I tried WMD-TaskManager (a great program) but isnt nearly as convenient as having a menu always available from top bar even if a program is on the screen

In fact. If QuickMenu was integrated into this, i would have no reason to use sense at all
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] wmdirk:
Why not have a look at ShowCase, it's a great task switcher you can access via the top bar and add a shortcut to it in Androkkid...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] xboxhaxorz:
how do i go about checking my txt and missed calls with this, i have to exit and go to sense right now until i figure it out
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] kraski:
There are shortcuts for email & sms in the shortcuts.txt file attached to the first message in this thread. Each line goes in its own file, named whatever you want, edited in a text editor. Then, rename whatever.txt to whatever.lnk, add a shortcut to that file & change type from normal to the appropriate type.

Or, if you use Dirk's WMDClock+ widget, all those are part of the widget...just select the ones you want to use by editing the widget's settings file (also a text file). I have voicemail, email, sms, battery, audio profile, & missed calls on mine. Since the widget uses smaller icons for these functions, it also frees up some page space.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] jjdavola:
I love this UI. My only problem is that it constantly crashes stating:

Then if I click on Details it says:

Then if I click on Quit, similar worded error messages pop up maybe 8 to 10 times

Then if I wait a while it will ask if I want to close Androkkid and if I select No or wait, the message pops up again and I have to keep hitting quit about 8 to 10 times before the error messages disappear. Even after all that when I restart Androkkid or even after rebooting my phone, I can still have the same issue over and over again.

Another error message I get says:

BTW this is installed on my Samsung Omnia II (SCH-i920) with stock WM 6.5.

Any hints, tricks or advice would be GREATLY appreciated.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] kraski:
jjdavola, are you using any Androkkid widgets that use Mortscript (Goraps Weather, WMDClock or WMDClock+)? That's what usually gets that result because they're not properly initialized. Assuming that's the case, do you have Mortscript installed? You need to:

1) find & install Mortscript 4.2.

2) before starting Androkkid, use a file manager to navigate to each widget folder that includes a mortscript script & tap the script to initialize it.

3) then restart Androkkid.

Every time you're going to add a widget that uses a mortscript script, you need to initialize the script before you add the widget to an Androkkid page. Otherwise, you'll crash Androkkid.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] jjdavola:
Thank you for trying to help. I appreciate it.

I am not using any of those widgets, but I do already have Mortscript 4.2 installed on my Omnia II.

Since this crashing is getting bad and then when it doesn't crash the + and ^ buttons often don't work after a while, it looks like I'm going to have to go look for something more reliable and updated. :(

Thanks again.

If you search for Samsung devices in this thread, you'll find that there's a problem with Samsung devices and Androkkid. So, you'll probably have to look for an alternative. I've listed some on the home page of my site, if you're interested.

Androkidd causes issues with HTC Vogue

Hello,

Firstly, thank you for some fine programs for WM devices. I have been

using Androkkid for a long time and it has been fairly stable.

However, in the last two days, it has seriously affected my HTC Vogue.

It was necessary to uninstall it to regain normal function.

I'm running WM 6.1 and S2U2

First issue: When I unlocked the device, the S2u2 lock screen would dislay for a moment, then mmediatley go blank by itself. A second attempt unlocked the device normally.

Second issue: The phone icon for phone.ink would not activate the

dialer screen. I tried to recreate the screen icon, soft reset, and

complete pwoerdown to no avail. Occasionally, other icons would stop functioning, but recreating the pathway restored function.....except for the dialer.

I uninstalled S2U2 to verify if it caused the the issues. The issues

continued.

Third issue: I uninstalled Androkkid and the issues disappeared.

Therefore I tried to reinstall the software. At first the device

reported that installation was unsuccessful, but after a second try,

Androkkid installed, but the issues repeated themselves.

I had no other choice but to remove Androkkid with the Remove Programs,

then delete the Androkidd from the device. The device has

returned to its normal functionality.

Do you have any idea of what went wrong? For the whole time S2U2 and

Androkidd were on the device, they played nice together. Prior to

Androkidd, I had used Ifonz without issues.

Could it be a corrupt NetCF? Any help you can provide to get Androkkid

working again will be greatly appreciated.

Androkkid on Acer M900

Hi,

I am trying to set up Androkkid on my Acer M900 running wm 6.1.

I try to add Messsging Icons for my mailbox, unreaded SMS and Missed calls.

I am getting the red babble with the number and when I press the Icon, I am

getting to the messages and not, for example, to the list of the missed calls or

to the unreaded SMS, how can I fix it?

I try to add widget, I get the new ones on the list and when I try to set it up.

I am getting only an empty Icon, the build in widget are working fine any clue?

launch touchflo widgets

Installed Androkkid two weeks ago and use it all the time since then on a htc touch2 running wm6.5.

However, I am missing a couple of touchflo widgets. I realize that it is impossible to include them as a widget in Androkkid and that for most of them there is an alternative in Adrokkid.

Can these touchflo widgets be launched as a program (e.g. the weather widget)?
