@avengerpenguin

hmmmmm... i couldnt find anything wrong. it may be the way your packaging and renaming. You did include an icon file too?

also, have you installed 3rd party widgets before? you may need to enable them on your phone with themuzz's cab.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] avengerpenguin:
I have successfully installed widgets using themuzz's cab hence my confusion. I used the original icon from the widget I butchered to test this on, but left it as is to avoid changing to many things at once, I will have a look at how I re-pack the files, but this doesnt pose a problem unless I alter something within config.xml or widget.htm

I will continue my fault finding and try and report back later.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] PearlMikeJam:
Thanks for the reply. I did some experimenting and was able to get this to install wihout a URL in the config.XML file. It does not seem to serve any purpose. Any idea what the parameters are for the urls? Is there a character limit for descriptions?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] bugsykoosh:
There's no character limit but some pages simply don't load right. It's a pain. Like FaceBook would not let use choose between the full version and mobile - regardless of the site it decided for us. To test widgets you can try this though: http://widgetemulator.codeplex.com/
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] avengerpenguin:
I think the url in the config file is purely for the description when installing, but I may be wrong I dont believe that it has any real purpose.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] avengerpenguin:
fixed, widget not intended for this device problem

On another note I have solved my problem with the widgets not installing and returning the error message about not being intended for this device.

I appeared to have been making a school boy error when packaging my config.xml,icon, and widget.htm files, I was foolishly "zipping" the folder containing my files rather than selecting the 3 files and sending them to a compressed folder.

For anyone else making this error unless you zip the files directly it causes the config.xml file to not be in the root folder.

Thanks to all those who tried to help.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Digital.Diablo:
Thanks AvengerPenguin, you identified the problem I was having, duhh! :D

Anyway, in celebration, here is my first widget - Ninjawords. It just hyperlinks to the ninjawords.com site for quick dictionary lookups, but a useful little widget for me, and non of that Apple Censorship fluff. :p

Oh yes, you'll have to download and unzip the wgt as xda-dev's won't let me post wgt files.

Hey guys i searched these forums and i searched on google, couldn't find any information. I dropped my phone today from less than 1 foot and it turned off and when i tried turning it on my entire screen was white except for the top which had black lines and you could tell the phone was responsive because of the way the lines moved. What do you guys suggest i do? I can't figure out a way to make my screen work normally.
[G1 General] lukekirstein:
Your screen is broken, simple as that. Time to get a replacement!
[G1 General] FuMMoD:
Where exactly do i get one? And what is the part called which i need to replace? My phone doesnt even barely have scratches and my screen stopped working -.-. I hate my life.
[G1 General] All~G1:
Ummm... T-mobile would be a great place to start... Just tell them it stopped working. Unless you bought it off warranty or without insurance, then you can buy it or any part for it where ever you can find it.
[G1 General] FuMMoD:
Yeah, no warrenty on it. What is the part called though i have no idea what the screen part is called so i can order the part.
[G1 General] FuMMoD:

ok so I was running drizzy's 2.7 and i needed to repartition so i could install the jac drizzy collaborative hero

after repartitioning i tried starting up so i could connect to my pc and put the update on my sd card. it goes to the g1 screen and then goes to a completely black screen and stays there... no hero or android logo....i can still do recovery i think
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hiroots:
ha sorry i miss read your question. can you even go to recovery?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] h.nocturna:
def not a brick... brick = not able to access bootloader or recovery screen. If you can access those, just transfer file over via adb and just re-flash and you should be good.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Noobyflasher:
i dont know what adb is so im just gotta put a ROM on the sd card via a reader and flash it???
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] borodin1:
ADB is your best friend. It will let you do things when you can't do anything on your phone (like in your case).

If you are going to mess with Hero roms (or any experimental roms for that matter) you really need to learn at least the basics of it. Read up on it and start using it. It's a lot better then trying to put in 10 lines of code on phone's keyboard.

Good luck
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Noobyflasher:
i used an sd card reader to put the file on my sd card and now its flashing....i cant find a thread through search about adb...got any good links???

Go into Dream Android Development forum, second sticky from the top. It has all the info you will ever need, including basic ADB comands. At this point that's all you need, you will learn more as you move along and do things over and over again.

Hey guys, just curious if anybody has this successfully running?

While the official app works, I keep getting a message when i try to dial from the GV app; 'connection error or invalid mmi code'.

Attempting to remedy the situation, I dialed '*9' in the regular dialer, but same issue.

Can anybody verify that Hero phones can or cannot display a correct mmi code by dialing *9?

I am on T-mobile US, btw.

Thanks.
[Hero, G2 Touch Themes and Apps] Heavens_King:
ok dont know if it will work for you but it worked for me

add comma (,) in the end of the code

okay. i have a transend 8gb class 6 sd and when i put htc widgets on all the 7 screens it has the loading issue that everyone has. but i took out most of the widgets and only have weather and bookmark on there with 5 apps on there. so i tested it with heavy browsing with links to youtube videos. and i pressed home, result was no load screens. then i put all my widgets and just pressed every link in my history then pressed home, i got the load screen. so do you think thats the issue? from left to right i had calender, music, weather,empty,people & apps,bookmark,albums. all full widgets.

my question is people who have class 6 with all screens full with whatever do you have loading issues? and if you take them put and put just 2 widgets and leave the other screens blank what is your results.

[General Topics] matte13:
When i go to set a custom background image under my today settings, why does the image show up alot lighter than what it actually is?
[General Topics] ben_duder:
That's because Windows Mobile sets the transparency of the image to high by default. Instead, try finding the image on File Explorer, viewing it then going to Menu and Set as Today Background... From here, you can manually choose the transparency level. 0% transparency means the picture's colours are fully visible.

~sigh~ ... only Flash9 websites work, not Flash10, that's why some websites work and other don't. Also multi-touch doesn't work in JACHero2.7.4 editions because it uses the cyanogen linux kernel which does not support multi-touch. It works in the 2.7.3superlite version (which is the only superlite version up, there is not 2.7.4superlite) because the 2.7.3 is based off the daproy kernel which did have multi-touch support. If you had looked at the change logs you would know all of this and probably more...

FAQ

1. How can I set the long or short press power button trigger to start PowerOptions ?

See this post

2. I don't have a HTC device and Shutdown doesn't work, anything I can do?

Contact me via private mail - maybe we can work something out

3. Can I add any/all of the programs in this post to my own ROM ?

Yes, feel free to do so. Just give me credit by mentioning my website

4. I want to install the new version, do I have to uninstall the old first?

You can just install it over the old one, the new installation will uninstall the old one. You may uninstall it manually yourself too however, it doesn't matter which way.

5. Are you going to make this a skinnable app?

Will look into it, no ETA yet.

6. Are you going to add a timer to reboot the device at certain times?

Looking for best practice ways right now.

Standalone still has prompts. I like the idea of this app... probably just need to wait to the weekend so I can have a good play with it.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] TinTin:
I assume you mean MyShutdown_No_Warning.CAB still has prompts for you? Which device are you running this on and which ROM?

No prompting should work for all HTC devices with MySoftReset_No_Warning.CAB, but with shut down it will most likely only work on WVGA devices.

I can probably make it work on other devices, but would need some help from people with other devices.

Thanks

Hi:

Can be possible make standalone versions for standby and screen off buttons?.

Thanks.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] TinTin:
[size=+1]TYVM!

To map the application to the long press power button trigger just copy PowerOptions.lnk from \Windows\Start Menu to \Windows folder and rename it to Long_Power.lnk.

And you guessed it, to map the application to the short press power button trigger just copy PowerOptions.lnk from \Windows\Start Menu to \Windows folder and rename it to Short_Power.lnk

To map any of the standalone versions to the short/long press power button trigger use their .lnk files and copy/rename them accordingly.

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Tatsch:
Hi TinTin, thanks.

Issue: After suspend the screen is unlocked.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] TinTin:
Hmm, can you elaborate please? How do you suspend, when your screen is locked in the first place? I don't quite get it, sorry :(
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Tatsch:
Usually the screen is locked by PocketShield, when I turn on the screen after standby.

If I use your application for standby-mode, then - after waking up the device - the screen is not locked. Seems that your app prevents the lock of pocketshield?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] TinTin:
Is this happening with PowerOptions or the stand alone MySuspend?

Ah ok, you're using a 3rd party software to lock. You may have to ask the developer of PocketShield why this is happening, they can debug their software, which I can't.

All I'm doing in PowerOptions is sending a message to my application to close it.

I'll have a look at PocketShield and the phenomena too though.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] PoisonWolf:
TC,

I was wondering, is there any way to know if a program is resetting a device through the safe recommended method? I'm using SPB Mobile Shell 3 to reset the device through the built-in-widget. Might you know if it utilizes the safe method or if it's using the kernal i/o method?

Cheers.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] TinTin:
I have no idea and there is no way to tell (unless you start hacking their software) - that's part of the reason I started to write my own routines. With a well-known company like SPB one would think they know what they're doing however. But why not ask them if you're worried.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] PoisonWolf:
TinTin,

Thank you. Well, I guess I'll just wait for your version to include skinning and stuff. :D

I'll give your program a try out soon.

Cheers.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] hanackin:
thanks a lot dude ! nice work :cool:
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] TinTin:
Ok, I figured it out. PocketShield appears to merely hook to the power on/off button, thus software driven methods to suspend the device go unnoticed and their "lock" event is never even fired. This is not PowerOptions fault - PocketShield is just not designed to react (S2U2 isn't either it appears), so it's a lack of their software. I see it in their responsibility to cover all possible scenarios, no matter how the device got into standby mode.

Anyway, I guess they are unlikely to help you with that shortly, so I will.

I modified PowerOptions and MySuspend for you (and others that are using PocketShield/S2U2), so PocketShield will be "informed" by my application. This is not the best way to program and just a workaround, but only they will and should be able to fix this. Since this adds some overhead to my applications, I will keep these versions separate for now.

Please let me know if this works for you - it did in my tests. See files attached.

hth,

Tin

[size=+1][Edit]

PocketShield did care about the issue immediately and even came to this thread. Kudos to them for a very good support attitude and my apologies for thinking differently.[/size]

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] buzz83:
Soft reset works fine, but shutdown opens "Smaberg Powerbutton X1 12 icons...".

I probably use soft reset 99% of the time so I'm happy enough to click yes when powering off.

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Tatsch:
Thanky you for that, these files work like a charm. I even can see on the display pocketshield locking before screen gets black.

I'll write pocketshield about this issue, but I don't think they react.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] pckshd:
Just FYI: http://forums.jdbp.mobi/phorum/read.php?2,4362,4364#msg-4364

PocketShield does not merely hook the power button. You can discard this by letting device power off by 1 min time out.

If neither PS nor S2U2 are detecting this it might be because it is not implemented as it should.

Now, MySuspend does cause PS to lock but after waiting 15 seconds. Yet it is not the appropriate way. The appropriate way is as shown here:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms920754.aspx

SetSystemPowerState(null, POWER_STATE_SUSPEND, POWER_FORCE)

By doing it this way, it will take only 5 seconds to lock (this is the time that the system takes to acknowledge the suspend action, and inform it to PocketShield or to any screen locker)

If still want to make it instantly (no 5 secs) a screen off command can be submitted before calling the suspend command.

Hope this helps

edit: didn't notice the post before ...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] TinTin:
Yes and that is exactly what the original versions are using, yet PocketShield does not always catch the new system state. During tests it only locked like 3 out of 10 times on a Topaz.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] TinTin:
Which function are you referring to as "screen off" exactly? Maybe that would be the best option then.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] pckshd:
Tested MySuspend on a TouchPro with Rhodium ROM and does lock but always after 15 seconds. With TouchOff for example, it takes only 5 secs. Have you considered adding a ScreenOff operation just before suspend?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] pckshd:
That is, turn the screen off but keeping device on. The same that music players or GPS applications use to save battery.

Adding screen off before suspending does indeed seem to help PocketShield, it fires immediately on Topaz too now. Much easier to add this then firing PocketShield myself, so that's a good option. I'll update PowerOptions and MySuspend in a few minutes.
