Widget Request

hello wmdirk

Widget Request.

I have to eat out a lot and was wondering if you can build a Tip Widget.

Something clean looking, transparent would be nice.

You put in the amount and can pick or put in a present and calc the tip.

also maybe have it split for a group say number of people as well.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] alecoddlyiv:
How hard is it to work out 10 or 20% ???? surely a calculator would suffice? :D
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] wmdirk:
There are quite a lot of (free) Windows Mobile tip calculators around. This is not something most people use on a daily basis. A shortcut to e.g. Windows Mobile Tip Calculator should do the job...

error message using GORAPSWeather Widget for Androkkid

I installed GORAPSWeather Widget for Androkkid on my HTC Touch (followed these instructions :xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=4744679&postcount=20) but can't get it to work. After i have put the widget on my PPC desktop. The GORAPSWeather Widget is not on this screen to be seen and when i click on any other icon, I get the next error message

Error:

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] wmdirk:
I'll look into it...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] wmdirk:
I guess you installed GorapsWeather (in \Androkkid\widgets), installed MortScript, configured the script for your location and executed it to see if it works?

What you could try: close Androkkid and verify if the \Androkkid\settings.ini file contains a line for the GorapsWeather widget. If so, remove the line and save the file (make a backup before modifying and saving!). Start Androkkid again to verify if everything runs as it should.

If everything functions, try adding the script again. If it still doesn't function, try the same procedure, but restart your device after closing down Androkkid.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Gallojam:
thanks for the quick reply, im gonna try now, hope it works!

i can't find the line you refer to ...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] wmdirk:
Seems Androkkid didn't add the widget then. Have you tried restarting your device?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Gallojam:
Yes, so it seems ... i have restarted my device and tried again. No luck so far.

I will try some more. This Androkkid is quite nice. I haven't been able to run it super smooth yet. Maybe i have other apps installed that conflict in some way.

Thanks again for your effort.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] kraski:
I'm WVGA, but here's what 2.4 looks like on my Tilt 2. I'm using the original settings.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] wmdirk:
The unlock.txt file is probably missing in the widget's folder...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] kraski:
The unlock file is there. I checked both the copy on my phone & the copy on my hard drive.

widget for todayplugins

Hi,

I've installed Androkkid and I wondered if it's possible to program a widget that could display todayplugins. There are some that I would like to use together with Androkkid.

bye

daywalker72
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] chumpster:
You can minimize Androkkid so that you can see your today screen. In fact, Simo has provided an icon for that.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] alecoddlyiv:
i think its poitui that has this ability, i like the idea of this too especially to incorporate the phonex today plugin strip which is awesome
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] alecoddlyiv:
Time for this thread to be split

Can I suggest that this thread be edited to be WMD-SOFT Androkkid widgets and all other widgets be moved into an other androkkid widgets thread.

I am pretty sure I have caught everything that others have done but recently things have gone very quiet of the development front.

I would love to see further developments for this awesome ui and them having their own thread separate to the legend that is wmdirk will allow discussion and bug reporting to become easier
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] kraski:
For those having issues with unlocked WMD widgets, if you have your own personal unlock file & it doesn't work, check your device ID. The unlock code is based on that. At some point, my Vista WMDC decided to change my device ID & actually did it twice. :eek: I'm not sure if it's related to updating PowerRadio, installing Resco Explorer or something Vista does on its own. But it's something worth remembering, if you have similar issues.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] wmdirk:
In my opinion, the current thread is ok and collects everything about Androkkid widgets. Ajige still updates the initial thread with the widgets overview, and there are sites linking back to this thread.

Anyway, seems that all concerning Androkkid is very quiet these days... I don't see a need to change anything right now.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] wmdirk:
WMD-TaskManager v1.1 (minor bug fix and icon added in front of the title).
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] qkzoo:
Hey WMD, any progress on passing more than one command line argument in RegInfo?

Thanks!

Q
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] wmdirk:
Don't worry. I'm working on that as well. As soon as I've got a test version, I'll send it to you.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] wmdirk:
I've got a new version. The attachment contain the WMDRegInfo.dll and WMDAndrokkidLib.dll. The problem was in the lib and weren't the quotes, but the presence of "=" in the parameters string.

Could you try it out and let me know if it's ok. If yes, I'll create a full version and put it on my site. If not, could you set the debugLevel=debug in the settings.txt file and send me the resulting log.txt file.

Thanks.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] kraski:
Has anyone seen the MykeCer chrome flipclock for Sense 2.1, highlighted on the xda front page? Any chance of getting a skin like that for ClockPlus? It'd go very nicely with several of the Androkkid themes.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] wmdirk:
A first try...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] kraski:
Nice. Right now, I have that with the "colors" icons & the Nexus One wallpaper matched with the Omnia Noir theme. I probably should have posted the request in the themes thread, but I'm definitely happy I got such a quick response. If someone's looking for dark, professional with a little bit of bling, the above combo is it!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] wmdirk:
I've made a small modification by setting the weather text's font to outlined, which makes it more readable. On my site (clock's page) there are now 2 new downloads in the skins section, one with the reflect icons and one with the colors icons.

The picture in the attachment has the background from the Star Wars theme :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] wmdirk:
Another clock skin...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] alecoddlyiv:
That looks very nice, its a shame we cant use transparent background still
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] wmdirk:
Right... I was hoping on Simo to build that in Androkkid. I'm investigating some stuff myself. For now, the best I can do, is the widget backgrounds based on the theme's background. Like the one I just created for the new clock skin in the Nexus One theme...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] kraski:
On my Tilt 2, part of the weather creeps up into the space between the two sections. I tried enlarging the clock font & the alarm & am/pm fonts. There's a point where that no longer seems to shifty things down, but overlaps clock & alarm info. But the weather is still far enough over the top edge of the bottom background section that it still goes into the space between the two sections. Is there a line spacing setting or a vertical positioning setting for the weather data that I've missed?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] wmdirk:
You probably need a background that is slightly heigher than the one you're using now. And then you'll need to resize the widget in Androkkid to correspond to the new background size.

To make sure that's the problem, could you post a screenshot?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] wmdirk:
WMD-Clock

WMD-Clock is a new widget. In fact, it's a stripped down version of WMD-Clock+: the clock with alarm & weather integration and all the skinning capabilities, but without the status icons or the posibility to add your own custom icons.

This makes it a light version of it's full featured brother, and ideal if you don't need all the icons or if you'd like to add a second clock somewhere in an Androkkid page or even the same page.

The zip comes with 4 skins, of which some have multiple backgrounds for integration in e.g. the Nexus One and WMDrokkid themes.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] chumpster:
I have not tried this new clock (I am not sure if I will because I like Clock+); but from your pictures, it looks like the HI temperature is lower than your LO temperature. Is that correct or is there a bug in the widget?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mayhssbn:
Androkkid problem in Atom Exec ?

The Androkkid app is really cool and works on my atom exec.

but i have a problem, i dont maybe my phone but the thing is everytime i open an app inside the androkkid it runs but when i exit it the androkkid also exits and it shows me the same old home screen.

I am doing something wrong ? some problem with the phone ? am not able to understand this....why should androkkid quit everytime i quit an app used inside it ?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] wmdirk:
The temperature's should be correct. It's just that the screenshots are from my emulator and I had to configure the GorapsWeather info manually in the registry.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] wmdirk:
I sometimes have the same issue when closing Opera. Apparently that triggers a close on Androkkid. I always click "No" and don't close Androkkid. It just keeps running as it should. I haven't experienced this with other apps though...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] wmdirk:
WMD-Clock v1.1

I've made a small modification. You can now use a different location than the one for WMD-Clock+ for the weather info. Please read the instructions on the clock's page and download v1.1 if you'd like to use it.

Could be usefull if you'd like to use both WMD-Clock+ and WMD-Clock with different weather locations.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] wmdirk:
WMD-Clock+ v2.5 has it's own weather script as well now. This way you can use a different city for the clock than for the GorapsWeather widget itself. Please read the notes on configuring the script (located on the clock's page just below the download). [Unlike for WMD-Clock v1.1 you don't need to copy the script to the GorapsWeather folder, you just need to edit the script file in the clock's folder to set your own location]

PS: the WMD-Clock+ page on the site has been reorganized and the configuration and settings information is now in a submenu.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] wmdirk:
WMD-RegInfo v1.7 has been released.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] wmdirk:
I hope my new widget WMD-NextAppointments is what you were looking for.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] danielnartschick:
Great ... I'm still using Androkkid and this widget is exactly what I looked for! thank you! a small note: the counter below the appointments (1 of 9 for instance) is not working. it stops, their are no further counts. but this is not so important.

for me are the all day appointments not useful. is their a possibility in the settings to hide this? or can you develope this setting in the future?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] wmdirk:
I'll add a setting for the all day appointments.

I'll try and fix the counter thing too. And show the date for the selected day, instead of always the current day.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] danielnartschick:
I'll wait ;)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] wmdirk:
WMD-NextAppointments v1.1

WMD-NextAppointments v1.1 is available:

corrected the appointments count

the date displayed now is the one from the selected date (instead of today)

showing all day appointments is optional (can be modified via the settings.txt file parameter showAllDayAppointments=yes|no)

in the skin settings.txt file the background image can be set to another background (avoids having to create a full skin for just a new background)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] alecoddlyiv:
Would love to get my qvga screen looking like that *sigh*
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] danielnartschick:
Sorry, but there are more problems than before.

there are only (maximum) 3 appointments per day. for instance I have monday 7 single appointments and two all day appointments. the widget shows the first all day appointment twice and only one single appointment (not the first, the third ... I can not see the logic.)

if I set the all day appointments to "no" for today is no all day appointment, but for the next day and the day after it is exactly as before

maybe you can help?

the appointments count works fine and the displayed date is correct.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] wmdirk:
Still having problems to get the clock configured? The Manila skin (as in the screenshot) was mainly intended for VGA. I haven't tried that one on VGA yet.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] wmdirk:
Ok. I'll configure the same type of appointments and see what happens. I didn't have a lot of appointments configured right now and only one all day event for the 3rd day, but that didn't display with the setting set to "no".
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] wmdirk:
WMD-NextAppointments v1.2

Could you give the new version a try? When appointments with the same start time got sorted, the resulting order wasn't always the same which gave a kind of random result and appointments seemed to appear twice. That and a small bug fix for filtering all day (non-recurring) appointments. I've slightly modified the graphics as well, and fonts can now be shadowed or outlined via the skin settings file.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] danielnartschick:
now it works! thank you. the all day appointment for today is off. the all day appointments for the next days are on. interesting ... not bad, this is ok. I hope there is a switch and tomorrow are the all day appointments for tomorrow off. I'll report ... the widget shows all appointments, the dates and the counts are ok. I think it's ready! we will see the next days :)

edit: a new day and all is fine. the widget switched immediately to the new date with the first appointment. the all day appointments are now off ... great work!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] alecoddlyiv:
yeah just cannot get it to display all of the text, tried for over an hour again today with no success :(
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] wmdirk:
Sorry to hear that. I got it configured somehow in my emulator, but again, I'm not sure how close it is to the real thing.

And since Androkkid doesn't offer a way to create QVGA specific widgets, there's not much more I can do.

If anyone else has the same device and uses Androkkid and the clock, maybe they can share their findings and settings file...

WMD-Agenda v3.0 beta 1

WMD-Agenda v3.0 beta 1 is available.

Feedback is welcome...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] chumpster:
Awesome. I'll give it a try later today and let you know what happens. Thanks.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] wmdirk:
Since the 1st post will no longer be updated in the future (thanks to ajige for all the work he's done the past few months!), anyone interested in the widgets I create can also have a look now and then at the news on my site (you can even subscribe to new posts). I'll continu to report changes here as well. And problems or questions can still be posted here...

WMD-Clock+ just got updated because of a bug found by Kraski.

And if you don't have an unlock file but would like to test WMD-Agenda 3.0 beta, there's now a temporary unlock file available in the corresponding news post.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] chumpster:
This may be user error, but I cannot get WMD-Agenda v3.0 beta 1 to work. I get something called error 6 and stating that I need to install "NETCFv35.Messenges.EN.wm.cab" to get the actual error message.

Does anyone know what this is or have encountered this?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] wmdirk:
Haven't seen that one yet.

WMD-Agenda v3.0 uses a new version of WMDAndrokkidLib.dll (because of the multi-threading). If you use a shared version, you should update it.

I'll only be able to check exactly where the error appears in the code. You could set the debugLevel=debug in the settings.txt file. This should create a log file that may be helpfull to resolving the issue.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] hackbob:
Awesome version the 3.0 Beta.

It's faster and not completely blocking like before (it was, in my opinion, the most annoying point).

Today is pay day for me but the back transfer is not confirmed.

As soon as it's done I'll do my donation for your awesome product.

Regards
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] kraski:
That's exactly the same message I get every time I forget to put the shared dll in the main Androkkid folder or haven't initialized the weather script. You gave one possible answer re: the dll. Is there anything that would require initializing the weather script again?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] wmdirk:
Error 6 is during widget load, so I hope chumpster can confirm it's the DLL version.

WMD-Agenda v3.0 is not yet feature complete. I am planning on adding a month calendar view. And maybe some other stuff. Suggestions or ideas are welcome.

I've made a small update: it seems the widget only refreshes automatically every other time. With the new version there's no longer a need to have the waitTimeBeforeUpdateVerification, so I've changed it to update immediately after the updateRate seconds have passed (see settings file, by default it's now set to 5 minutes).

During update you might see the appointments refreshing more than once (maybe 2 or 3 times), and only with the final one, the list is complete. I'm looking into that as well.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] chumpster:
WMDirk,

After I read your post, I went in and delete my previous version of WMDAndrokkidLib.dll and got your new version. It still did not work for me. :(

I am pretty busy with work and stuff right now so I won't have time to do any debugging for a couple of days; but it sounds like I am the only one with this issue, so it is probably something I just need some time to figure out.

If can't get it to work I'll probably ask for your help and send you my log file. Thanks.

By the way, a month calendar view would be great.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] fabiot:
Sorry.. i have a problem.

When open it with file explorer i have this problem:

Line 26 connect (The Internet) couldn't establish internet interpreter. Connection

Why?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] wmdirk:
You need an internet connection to update weather. Did you have a connection when you tried this?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Sihy:
I have the same problem, I'm connected with Active Sync and also Wi-Fi, and still having the same problem...any solution?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] wmdirk:
I don't think you can have an internet connection via both at the same time. Have you tried your internet connection via a browser (Opera, IE, whatever you're using)? And maybe check if you have access via that browser to http://wwwa.accuweather.com, which is what the script connects to.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Sihy:
I tried both, connected to active sync and doesn't work, with wi-fi and nothing changes...any idea what could be? I enter to accuweather in my Xperia and open correctly.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] wmdirk:
Can you send me your GorapsWeather.mscr script file, so I can try it on my device?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Sihy:
Here there are the files that I have, only I modified the area code...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] wmdirk:
You're script functions just fine (I wished we had the same temperatures right here!).

I don't know what could be wrong with your configuration. I should function ok. Maybe reinstall MortScript? Maybe someone else has any other ideas...?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] alecoddlyiv:
I found that in order to get my mortscript working it had to be via the mobile networks internet and not wifi - it had to make the connection itself.

try disabling wifi if you have it
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] MasterGadgets:
Thanks to WMDirk

I just want to thank you for taking the lead in developing widgets for Androkkid.

What you are doing is making this UI very customizable and extremely useful!!

Many Thanks!!

WMD-Agenda v3.0 beta 3

wmdirk

the calendar icon (top right) now displays todays date (without the month), and when clicked, a month view appears.

I clicked on the calendar icon and nothing appended.
