What programming language is it written in? I've started dusting off a similar project I'd been working on since ComplexMind is on hiatus with his "My Android Manager". I think if we can build a consolidated pc interface it would help out the community a lot. Open the source and I'm sure you'll have people beating a path to your door to help out.
[G1 Android Development] kissman21:
VB.NET, i am plannig release source bot not yet... Wow, i never hear about My Android Manager but i checked now and I can stop develop this utility :D
[G1 Android Development] maxisma:
My Android Manager sucks, it's slow and buggy.
[G1 Android Development] benmyers2941:
I thought it looked like VB. You can definitely add me to the list of people interested in helping develop this further. My Android Manager hasn't moved for about a month. At least around here, that's quite a while. I've not worked much on localization before but dynamically labeling based on an indexed data file shouldn't be too hard. Do you currently use any sort of db storage or is strictly a command line wrapper at this point?
[G1 Android Development] benmyers2941:
I wouldn't say it sucks, but it is incomplete. Since the source is closed on it though we're at the whim of ComplexMind to fix things.
[G1 Android Development] alapapa:
looking great! nice idea
[G1 Android Development] kissman21:
but MAM have a "little thinks" about which i am thinkink "i must have in own app" such as phone detection and cmd output to gui. :o

Now I am using strictly defined commads and link library with functions for convert rgb565 to others usable formats. In future, i want make simple db with commands for easy updates and edits... And MUI is easy to implement, but need more time (work, work, work in IT is hard :-D )
[G1 Android Development] palosjr:
so he posted this util and now is saying he is going to stop putting in the time? :confused:
[G1 Android Development] kissman21:
just ironically :D My Android Manager have nice idea :rolleyes:
[G1 Android Development] benmyers2941:
Your time frames are your own, but around here people loose interest fast if things stop happening. My first thought with a back end db is that each control could be indexed and then captioned during a splash screen process for simple localization. Maybe crude, I'm not a professional programmer, but I think it would work. A quick Google search popped up a sample for capturing command line output. It would need a little work to adapt but I can see where it's going.

Dim CMD As New Process

Dim SW As System.IO.StreamWriter

Dim SR As System.IO.StreamReader

CMD.StartInfo.FileName = "cmd"

CMD.StartInfo.UseShellExecute = False

CMD.StartInfo.RedirectStandardInput = True

CMD.StartInfo.RedirectStandardOutput = True

CMD.StartInfo.CreateNoWindow = True

CMD.Start()

SW = CMD.StandardInput

SR = CMD.StandardOutput

SW.WriteLine("ping www.google.com")

CMD.Dispose()

SW.Dispose()

Do Until SR.EndOfStream = True

TextBox1.Text &= SR.ReadLine

TextBox1.Text &= Environment.NewLine

Loop

SR.Dispose()
[G1 Android Development] kissman21:
i tried write a hundreds lines of code for creating nice shell output... even this :cool: but not works good :confused:
[G1 Android Development] benmyers2941:
I'll see if I can find some time to package this up as a class module and test it out. I'm watching the baby today so time is not my own. I think parsing the output would definitely be the tricky part. Then of course making that output useful.
[G1 Android Development] kissman21:
2ben... your code have 2 big minus :p 1) when start command, application totaly freeze and waiting to command end 2) text output is writed after command ended :o better is System.Diagnostics.Process.Start
[G1 Android Development] 51dusty:
i'm fairly proficient in .net. looking forward to helping out. open up the source. better move on it quick though, these guys move fast.
[G1 Android Development] benmyers2941:
I think the "EndOfStream" property is not capturing correctly for some reason. It kept freezing for me when I first tried it. I've just about got it wrapped up in a module so the output is continually cached until the class is released. I'll try to post it soon, once it's working on my end that is.
[G1 Android Development] nephron:
i like this a lot. Looking good and willing to test. Can we have an English version though?
[G1 Android Development] benmyers2941:
I've successfully isolated the problem to the read stream not having the expected endofstream characters. I've not resolved a workaround though... yet.
[G1 Android Development] MaliceMcGuire:
just thought i would remind all ya all... you ROCK \m/ oO \m/
[G1 Android Development] benmyers2941:
Success!

It's not 100%, but it works. I've not really put together anything like this to share before so I'm just putting up the whole project directory. This is not a completed application so if you don't have Visual Studio you won't be able to do much of anything with it.

The key here is the CLI class module. It's basically just a simple wrapper for the "cmd.exe" in windows. When you send it commands it spools the response to an internal cache that then can be read line by line.

One known limitation is that it looks for the ">" to determine that a command has completed so things like "adb status-window" won't work with it.

@kissman21...

This should help bring things to the next step for your project. Let me know if something doesn't make sense.
[G1 Android Development] kissman21:
hi, i tried your code... this is "same" as many others... app is waiting to complete command etc. dir is imediately completed but try ping www.google.com -t and you have totaly frozen app :confused: now i am working on MLI :-P
[G1 Android Development] benmyers2941:
Intersting, I was specifically testing the Ping operation and it was working for me last night. I'll take a look at it when I get home tonight and see if I can't find where it's hanging. Were you using the form, or utilizing code directly from the class module?

Update:

I don't have Visual Studio at work but I grabbed the zip and fired up the CMD_Capture.exe in bin > Debug and the Ping worked just fine. There's a property in the class module called "Ready" that causes it to loop until the command window title reverts to "cmd.exe" and then pulls in the info. When commands like Ping are still running the ending of the command window title is different. It's not the most elegent solution, but for a quick solution it does work.
[G1 Android Development] kissman21:
i am uploading multi language version now.... I'm sorry if this is not ok, is it my first ml app ever (bad code etc.) but works fine and fast :D

Hey fellow Heroes (that's what Hero owners are called, right? ;) )

Does your screen flash for notifications?

In the Sound & Display settings, there's a setting called "Notification flash", subtext "Flash screen for notifications" and you can set for the screen to flash for calls, messages etc.

Now I have all the boxes ticked, but when I get a text messages or email, the screen doesn't flash, only the trackball (for text msgs) or trackball and LED (for emails). :confused:

Is it just me or do other people experience this too? Would be nice to see the screen flash and get a quick little text message preview or something.

Thanks for any replies!
[Hero, G2 Touch General] joemax:
No screen flash here either - stock Orange Hero.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] aaasilva:
wheel

Only the wheel flashes IMHO
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Heroic_:
So what's that option in settings for then? Nothing? Is this a bug or am I misunderstanding what the option is meant to do?
[Hero, G2 Touch General] aaasilva:
I have my wheel flashing as soon as some new email or notification arrives. Clearing notifications clears the warning.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] joemax:
Is the screen not a different beast entirely from the trackball / wheel / round spinny thing ?

If the option says Screen Flash then surely we should see the screen flash when its on and a notification happens ?

An option for trackball flashing would be called Trackball Flash.

IMHO
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Heroic_:
Thanks joemax, that's exactly what I'm talking about!

I'll try again and rephrase my question: You know how when you get a call, an alarm, or a calendar reminder, the screen turns on and shows you the call/alarm clock/calendar screen? I thought that was the notification flash of the screen. So why, even when you turn said setting on, does the screen remain off when you get a text message/email and only the trackball (and LED for email) flash? Is that a bug?
[Hero, G2 Touch General] aaasilva:
Only the wheel will flash. I've looked into a lot of Android forums for this and all the users report the wheel as flashing but not the screen.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Heroic_:
Ok, but do we agree that the screen should light up for messages and emails based on the options in the settings menu?
[Hero, G2 Touch General] johnboywilson:
There is a program that turns the screen on when you get a message, and also one that pops up the text message on screen. If thats any help!
[Hero, G2 Touch General] lethalbody:
Whats it called then? :)
[Hero, G2 Touch General] aaasilva:
Based on what the option displays...yes, we agree.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Funkyfin2000:
SMS Popup from Market! GET IT! Cracking App!!!!!!
[Hero, G2 Touch General] KrissiFontaine:
Yes, it's called SMS popup in Market. I'm using it and it works fine for text messages. No popup/notification for email though.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] ivandias:
The screen does not flash, it is probably just a mis-translation.

If you go into the 'Notification flash - Flash screen for notifications' settings it lists 6 tickboxes for things like Missed Call and Email etcetera.

Basically think "trackball flash" where the menu is reading "screen flash" and it works, this is the page where you decide which events warrant your trackball flashing a notification.

I leave mine to flash only on Incoming Call, Missed call and SMS.

Having it light up for every work email that comes in is a pain.

The screen does not flash as was configurable on some older HTC Windows Mobile units.

Kind Regards.

Any one know a manual fix for this?

Or why its possibly doing it?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Cheesebaron:
http://ostebaronen.dk/?p=148

Notice the ROM you installed is pretty old now and contains security vulnerabilities and other quirks and bugs. So you might want to use some other ROM.

Also you are writing this in the wrong forum section. Thread reported to the mods to be trashed.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Roy_Drage:
I've been using the palm rom you can see in my sig for quite a while now, still think it's the fastest/most stable and therefore best rom i've used.

Everything works fine in mine.

Also most if not all of the palm pre themed roms were removed from this site because of some kind of palm copyright law being broken. Thats why we won't see anymore here.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] jaschen:
My gf has been running this room on her G1 for a month and loves it. Speed and stability is the best I have used thus far. The orientation not working sucks. I installed it on mine and there is a way to fix it, but it requires you to have a keyboard, which we don't have. Move on and try another one. The sapphire superlite is good, but there is problems syncing with google calender and the contact list is pretty buggy.

Hi,

I cannot explain why but my wm5 mobile device pwd is not working anymore. I know that I could do a hard reset loosing thus all data I got on my phone. Unfortunatly my last synch is some time ago and I'd prefer a way to gain access to my mobile without a reset because I need the contacts I got on it.

Does anyone know if there is a software, a company or someone who may help. (HTC, MIcrosoft... anyone)

Thanks

Hello everyone,

I am looking into the idea of being able to run an SSH or VNC server on the Windows Mobile platform over cellular (3G). I know for a fact Tmobile can assign a 'route-able' IP address to a phone here in the USA (this has been tested). I can ping this IP address from any computer on the internet (albeit with some substantial latency). Perhaps there is a way to use the Tmobile allowed "pinging your device" to tunnel SSH or VNC traffic.

I would like to figure out a way to reach an SSH or VNC server on my phone using this method. We would need to somehow "open" an inbound port to the phone (this would function like basic port forwarding).

All of this works perfectly over WiFi, of course, but the goal is to get this working over cellular 3G (in particular, Tmobile). I see this as a technical challenge we can overcome as a group.

Does anyone have any ideas on this?

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Antonius123:
it isnt possible they close all ports except if you use port 80 on your phone for the server then you can run vnc server mobile ;)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] mail_e36:
Antonius123,

So you're saying I can run a vnc server on port 80 on Tmobile? I have tried to run a web server on port 80 with no success.

Which mobile VNC server allows you to set the listening port?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] Antonius123:
its a program that is in alpha mode.

you can get your ip adress from your mobile phone trough php it is sending the real ip and not the fake.

But you must be aware that ip changes every time you get tro a difrent tower (gsm tower).

create a php page on a webserver with this code

<?php

echo $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];

?>
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] mail_e36:
Thanks for your reply, but I have additional questions.

I am able to get my real IP address from the phone by using VxUtil. This application tells me my IP address. Remember, I am able to have Tmobile assign me a 'route-able' IP address.

What is this program you speak of, which is in "alpha mode"?

The PHP code you provided, as I understand it, will simply give me my IP address, which VxUtil is able to do.

Were you able to somehow successfully access your device using the cellular connection? Which VNC software did you use, or did you use a different protocol?

It's interesting to note that when I check connectivity to my phone by doing "telnet IP_ADDRESS_HERE 80" I do not get a failure, the screen does hang as expected (Telnet can be used to see if ports are open without having a Telnet service running on my phone).

Can anyone please provide input?

Do you black/graphite owners wish you had the white Hero and vice versa?

I kind of wish Orange did the white version, I think they look better, even if they are less practical and hard-wearing. Anyone wanna swap? Haha.

:cool:
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Switchbitch:
I think the white looks fantastic. Black is kinda old school IMO (how many black gadgets have you had?) but it's entirely subjective.

[Hero, G2 Touch General] nicelad_uk:
I've had the white and was forever making sure it was clean!! Not putting it in leather cases as the leather marks the white, giving it a rub after using/pulling out of pocket. This is a phone! I took more care of it than my girlfriend!

Had to sell it as when it did get dirty it looked old and tatty, so went and got a black one which to me looks sleek and cool.

Can't remember how many times I got called a fairy for having a white phone?!? :)
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Sawkes:
White! Ive had no probs with dirt on it. And yesterday I putted it in a clear gel case, so no problems :)
[Hero, G2 Touch General] samadhi23:
i love the graphite one!!!! the white one is cool, too, but i prefer the graphite
[Hero, G2 Touch General] riz157:
I had the graphite first off then I returned it and got the white one and I can say I definetly prefer white. Generally in my experience others also prefer it. It does get dirty easily and quite often but I still wouldn't swap with black or graphite.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] deeren:
I have a white Hero , simply love it. I had the opportunity to swap it for a black one when i had led problems but in my opinion, the black colour and the white trackball don't match well.

Black one all the way! That said I havent seen any other colours in the flesh
[Hero, G2 Touch General] monocay:
white?

Hi to all

I will definitelly buy a Hero in comming days, but i am quite torn apart about the color.

I definitelly like white more than black, but all some of your experiences are really scary. I want to take care of the phone of course, but taking care of the colorations/smudges every day (?) is too much to it. I want to play with software, not hardware :)

What about you, hero white owners, is it really so bad?
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Switchbitch:
One day I noticed my white one had picked up some grease and ink smudges on the back. (I work in a greasy, inky environment!) I figured I'd have to clean it with Cif or something. The next day I went to do so and as I pulled it out my pocket, I noticed all the dirt was gone!

I think the Teflon makes it that bit easier for dirt to just rub off onto fabric. Plus it feels and looks great.

The aesthetics really are personal though, of course.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] deeren:
You were planning to clean with cif????????:confused:

I guess you're joking right? cause these chemicals might peel off the teflon layer. Especially something like cif.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Switchbitch:
A homopolymer like Teflon wont have any problem with nonionic surfactants. The Teflon is bonded well too so any harsh solutes should have little effect. I've known people to use Cif cream on the Hero with good effect.

If you do have your doubts though, don't take my word for it :)
[Hero, G2 Touch General] samadhi23:
is the graphite the same loike the brown one? i got the brown and love it
[Hero, G2 Touch General] nicelad_uk:
Have you ever used Cif before? It cleans almost anything and its not going to take off a bonded layer such as Teflon. You can use it on tiles, worktops or anything, but it doesn't take the waterproofing off.

A light amount of cif on kitchen roll and wipe the casing worked fine on my white one. I had a curry stain on it, yes! curry!!! The strength of the curry was more likely to take off the coating than the Cif!:D
[Hero, G2 Touch General] Switchbitch:
Teflon has some applications in chemistry due to it's resilience to corrosion. It completely resists the corrosive effect of hydroflouric acid, which even dissolves glass. Cif is no match for Teflon.

Also, "PTFE's resistance to van der Waals forces means that it is the only known surface to which a gecko cannot stick". This is very reassuring for people who have phobias of lizards.
[Hero, G2 Touch General] deeren:
:D of course i've used cif. who hasnt?

well i was shocked because last week i cleaned my phone with alcohol and i immediately noticed that the metal grey rim around the screen and the hardware buttons got white patches. Some sort of chemical reaction with the alcohol , i dont know.

I also thought cif might remove the htc logo on the back and the label autofocus 5.0 mp bla bla bla ...

Anyway, good to know it worked out . i guess i know what to do next time i have stains on it.

i think openvpn is not compatible with cisco vpn since cisco uses ipsec and openvpn uses a simply tunnel created on udp port 1194 (no need for gre,ike,or pptp port's/protocols open).

it's much simpier but work very well and just with the p12 certificate (ok my certificate is 2048bit so i think it is minimally secure, nothing like a dynamic generated rsa key but even better than just a ssh tunnel or something like).
