Nice. Unfortunately transparant background is not possible in Windows Mobile, I think. I have earched before for that and to my knoledge this is a restriction to Windows Mobile. But I can be wrong, so if people know how to do this, I am glad to add support.

Having the BattClock located at an open space, gives an interesting option though. It is possible to get the content of what is displayed, so I can get the rectangle of the BattClock, when the BattClock is NOT shown. So if I once in a (configurable) time disable the BattClock for e.g. half a second, I can grab the content underneath and use that as background image. So also if you have changing theme this will work. If you have a theme which is fixed, I only need to do that at startup (or once after a minute or so, because maybe the theme is not yet loaded).

Would this be a good enhancement for people placing it on a free spot :confused:
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Jokes On You:
When you say content do you mean an image or actual content? Let's say the content were a notification? Would Battclock be able to hide it's text?

i just got it config-ed, but in landscape mode, the battclock doesn't cover the whole battery display under it, help please? thanks in advance!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] honming:
very useful app :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ZuinigeRijder:
That means pixels, so an image.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ZuinigeRijder:
You can separately configure portrait and landscape.

Make sure your phone is in landscape and then start BattConfig. You will see again in real-time the BattClock changing ;)

I attached log file.

I have Samsung i637 WM 6.5 Standard

installation ok

Batclock runs ok

but battconfig is not running i get the following error
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ZuinigeRijder:
Looks like the same as in this post..

Apparently you have a smarthphone type and not all .NET controls are supported on your phone type :mad: So you need to change the settings via a registry editor. Not so convenient, but doable.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ZuinigeRijder:
I looked into the log file. I see a power on event, but I do not get a screen on event. Apparently this is different for WM5?

So BattClock does think the screen is not on and (for effciency reasons, not to drain battery and use CPU) decides not to update the information.

Looking at my code, I see that I decide that the screen on is dependent on the status of POWER_STATE_BACKLIGHTON. Hmmm, maybe you phone does not have a backlight? And I do not get this event then.

Maybe I must remove the optimization of delaying to screen on at power on then. That would probably solve your problem? Do you want me to make a test version?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] bobby0724:

thanks for the quick response i will play with the registry and see what i can do thanks

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] chaoscreater:
hey how do u remove the default battery icon on the title bar?? I know u can cover it with BattClock but i wanna remove it or hide it, i tried TouchPro Tweak (Diamond Tweak but for HTC Touch Pro) and Advanced Config, none of the options can hide it, Touch Pro tweak does have the option to hide but it doesn't work...

edit:

nvm i figured out that you have to hide the clock as well using TouchPro tweak (or Diamond Tweak).
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mahender:
hi chaos,

i guess youve sorted it but for anyone else.

select "hide the clock " in start,settings, system,claock and alarms, more.

uncheck the 'display clock'

for everyone else my current home screen.

settings:- portrait X -94, Y 0, H 46, H 48
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Moko0815:
Is it normal that the clock not count anymore when the PPC (Dellx50v) go StandBy and i wake it up?;)

Also the batterylevel does not refresh :(

Im must restart BattClock then for displaying the correct time +battlevel
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ZuinigeRijder:
Looks like the same issue as this post..

BattClock relies on the fact that the screen on is detected when the backlight goes on. So maybe you do not have a backlight?

See attachment of a test version, which reacts on power on and not on backlight on. Maybe that works?

Just unzip, copy the exe somewhere to your phone and execute it.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Moko0815:
it works, thank you very much
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ebliss:
Hi,

is it possible to choose different colours for the 3 rows instead of just one colour? I know the battery level can choose different colours based on their charges. But I am hoping to get the other 2 rows to have different colours too.

thanks.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ZuinigeRijder:
Ok, I will incorporate the changes in a next version.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ZuinigeRijder:
Hmmm, so you only want to distinguish between date and time? because the other 2 are driven by the low-medium-high settings.

This means that in principle you would like to define the color per info item:

- background color

- date

- time

- battery (low-medium-high)

- free memory (low-medium-high)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ebliss:
something like that.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] HTCHD2_2010:
Hi,

I think your 1.6 version is great already, anything from here on is only a bonus.

It work great for my HTC HD2, especially how i can specify the location for it

as i also have the other custome taskbar icons from other chefs here.

Cheers and thanx.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] nalab1:
THANKS!

Works brilliantly on my HD2 with stock 1.66 rom!

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Odjavel:
Hi,

Concerning battery and memory infos, it would be a nice idea to have separate levels, because they don't decrease at the same scale.

I still appreciate the use of BattClock, thanks to have made this :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ZuinigeRijder:
Ok, I will put it on the wish list. Busy with uploading 1.7 ;)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ZuinigeRijder:
BattClock version 1.7

Just uploaded new BattClock version.

Note that the site has been moved to:

http://touchlockpro.sourceforge.net/BattClock.html

7-2-2010 Version 1.7

* Made BattClock work on WM5 devices

* Make sure that BattClock is updated, also on phones not having backlight

* Date and Time color separate configurable

Please let me know if you have problems with downloading.

THANK YOU for the USEFUL and SUPER APP

The reason to use the Latest WM Build 6.5.3 and 6.5.5 was ONLY the clock in the Task Bar because is very usefull to be able to see the time when you speak on the phone or doing anything other on the Phone

Now i come back to my favorite build COM2 a pure 6.5 Windows and i use BattClock 1.7 WORK just Perfect for me and look awesome

THANK YOU AGAIN FOR THE GREAT WORK!!!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mahender:
having used most versions of this it is one of them small apps that makes the world of difference.

thanks so much.

one point regarding app-to-date.

i tried downloading vi apptodate but it says the app is unsigned.

i am assuming this has to do with sdkcerts.

i never had this issue before on apptodate, so not sure.

anyhoos got it from the interweb instead.

i have an sdkcerts cab, can i just install this and leave it be?

thanks for a rocking app dude.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Master_H:
Yes this really is a superb application. I'v tried many but this one ist the best. Thank you! :)

I have one question, the battery percentage is only in steps of 10 and not of 1. I've searched already but couldn't find a solution. Do you know how I can also have steps of 1? F.i. 47%, 48%, 49%, and not just 40% or 50%. Thanks in advance.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] tsalta:
WOW my battery percentage step are of 1% and i dont do anything just install the 1.7 version maybe this depends from the ROM im with the ROM from my signature and all is PERFECT
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Odjavel:
Same for me, I use BattClock since v1.1 and it have allways showed me a 1% battery percentage
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Master_H:
thanks for your answers. Hm, I've now also installed the SEX1toX2 Battery Enhancer, now I have 1% steps too. But actually I wanted a solution with only one battery app and not like now two. Nevermind, it works now and it's ok. :-)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ZuinigeRijder:
BattClock is dependent on the battery driver. If that is giving back 10% steps, it cannot be more accurate. Battery drivers are very phone specific and therefore more risky to replace. I keep BattClock small, so it works on almost all phones :cool: Most battery drivers give back 1% increments though.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ZuinigeRijder:
I did not have problems with AppToDate. I do not sign my application explicit, so I do not know if this is possible without having a third party certificate? Anyone experience with signing and deploying applications :confused: Maybe I can learn something :rolleyes:

Wrong colour with memory in MB ?

Thanks, great app.

The colour for memory is OK when % is selected but seems to be wrong when MB is selected. Without any other change on device, the colour is:

- green (high) when selecting memory in %

- yellow (medium) when selecting memory in MB.

The colour should be the same (green) for both options. Maybe a correction needed in the formula ?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] kensong:
I don't know if anyone noticed this but v1.7 seems to not update itself regularly. I would sometime have it stuck at a time including the battery level and both gets updated eg when I get an sms notification. I reverted back to 1.6 and the problem is gone. Anyone else sees this?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ZuinigeRijder:
See this post.. Not all .NET controls are supported on your phone.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ZuinigeRijder:
Currently the MB left is used as the indicator value. So if you have setup 30 and 60, it will show the middle color when between 30 and 60 MB.

It would be better if you can separately configure the colors. I will add that in a new version.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ZuinigeRijder:
I cannot confirm that, because I use daily TouchLockPro. So I hope other users can also react on this.

Note that the BattClock will not be updated, if it thinks the screen is off. So it could be related to that? What phone type do you have? Which OS? Do you have a backlight?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Vasko:
Thank you for this this awesome little app.

New battclock version 1.8 with *NEW* CPU Usage percentage

15-2-2010 Version 1.8

* Added option to show CPU usage percentage

* Color of CPU info configurable

* CPU indicator configurable (default %)

* Make sure to handle backlight on also as ScreenOn, to avoid possible problems with updating the BattClock

* Thresholds for Battery and Free memory separate configurable

Hope this version is appreciated :rolleyes:
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mahender:
hi all i can confirm that this happens to me. the update is spot on in 1.6.

it just delays sometimes at power on and also once powered on it stays static until you do something else. not all the time just enough to notice it.

not sure whether to stick with 1.6 or keep advancing to the newer builds.

just answered myself lol.

think im gonna go back to 1.6 it did exactly what i needed it do.

thanks zuinige
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ZuinigeRijder:
I did something in version 1.8, which could explain your problem:

Background Trasparent

I'm not able to make the bck trasparent even if loading a png with some area trasparent. Thanks
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] r_9:
1st of all, I love this app.

I love to have it with my WM....But, just can I have it update itself?? I know it's more battery saving for having it updated when the screen is on, but what is the need for a clock that is lag behind the present time whenever the screen is off for minutes or hours? Be honest, I love to have this app update it's time and battery even whenever the screen is off, or it'll be even nicer for us to have an option for staying it "in-syn" with the clock n batt or not.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Jokes On You:
Not possible.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] momyc:
Hi ,

Thank you again for your work. I used to use the TLP on my HTC diamond , but now I got Samsung Omnia II (I8000) and I'm using the BattColck only.

I have a question. With the new version 1.8 I see the CPU usage between 90% to 100% . It never go below than 85%.

If I check with task manager I have only 10-15 % usage (processes).

Is your BattLock showing the available CPU % or CPU USAGE % ?

I think something doesn't work right , at least on my phone.

Thanks,
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] swamp2:
Really nice app. Thanks so much. However, until the problems associated with the automatically resizing taskbar items is sorted out I just can not make this look good on my Tilt2 in both am and pm. Remember that the space taken up when in 12h mode changes with the number of digits in the time.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] stab244:
Really nice. I've wanted to be able to see both clock and battery level for a while now.

My only question is is there anyway to set the background as transparent. My taskbar looks kind of weird with just one little area having a background...

CPU Usage on HD2

Im using BattClock for a while on my HTC HD2 but the CPU Usage doesn't work correctly. When i don't use the device he writes 100%. But i think this is a failure. Maybe the CPU goes to a powersave mode and BattClock can't measure this. Would it be possible to Correct this? When The device is loading the accu the CPU usage is right with 0 %. Any Idea to solve this problem.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] momyc:
Like I mention earlier , I have same issue.

When the phone is unsed it shows me 100% .

When I start to use it (open a small program) it shows 95%-93%...

It will be nice if the issue will be sorted out.

Thnak you again this nice litlle application
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ZuinigeRijder:
I do not know if there is an simple API to get this information back. If so, I can add it, if not I am afraid I will not add it, because then the program would become bloatware. Or are there a lot of people wanting this functionality :confused:

BattClock Version 1.8.1

18-2-2010 Version 1.8.1

* Fixed update problems people reported

* Reset the CPU counters at wake up from a deep sleep so the CPU% is more accurate

* New BattClock icons, thanks to jaguaralani

* Added current CPU to registry key HKCU\Software\ZuinigeRijder\Status\CPU, request from howdykeith, so you can e.g. add mortscript actions to it.

* Added current FreeMemory to registry key HKCU\Software\ZuinigeRijder\Status\FreeMemory, so you can e.g. add mortscript actions to it when memory becomes low

* Added current Battery % to registry key HKCU\Software\ZuinigeRijder\Status\Battery, so you can e.g. add mortscript actions to it when battery becomes low
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ZuinigeRijder:
It shows the CPU usage in %. I get the idle time and compute the idle percentage. The CPU usage is computed as 100 - idle percentage.

In version 1.8.1 I did some fixes for wakeup, so I do not know if you still have the problem with that version? On my Touch Diamond the CPU is reported sometimes only 1% :D
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ZuinigeRijder:
You should configure in Windows Mobile to show the Battery gauge instead of showing the clock, because that size is constant. Then you can nicely place the BattClock over the Battery Gauge. Or is that not working on your phone?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ZuinigeRijder:
Transparency is not possible. But you can make an background image exactly matching your theme and set this as background image for the BattClock. So it looks it is transparant.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ZuinigeRijder:
This should be solved in version 1.8.1. Can you confirm?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ZuinigeRijder:
I will investigate if this is easy or not. Maybe I can learn something from it :rolleyes:
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ZuinigeRijder:

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] jaguaralani:
I don't agree !

HD2+My custom ROM ( 2.07+21891+2.5.21003626)

No Problem at all, CPU changes accordign to usage.

BTW, even 1.8 worked prefect, but 1.8.1 feels more accurate ( compared with SK tools CPU indicator )
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] jaguaralani:
Two suggestions

Hi mate, this is really awesome, the 1.8.1 CPu works more accurately now..

Not change for me with the new version .

The CPU usage is still high ( Over 90%)

If I look on task manager , I have only the task manager using 3-5% , but the BattClock is showing me on same time 91-93%.

I have Samsung Omnia II (I8000) .

Do you need the log file ?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] r_9:
thanks for your prompt reply!!

Will try it out tonight. Thanks a lot!!:D
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ZuinigeRijder:
Strange. Can you enable debug logging (in About screen) and post the debug log file \BattClock.log.txt in the root of your phone.

Can you also be more precise what you mean with idle? You mean with the screen off? And how do you see the CPU percentage then?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ZuinigeRijder:
For 1, what would be a good indicator, showing the graph for the last minute or over what time span?

For 2, I know the battery temperature is an API, but I do not know if there is a general API for the CPU.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ZuinigeRijder:
It should just work for 6.5.x, you may only need to change the size of the BattClock and the position. So can you be more precise what is not working?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ZuinigeRijder:
Strange. Maybe a log file gives me more insight, so yes, please enable debug logging in About screen and post the log file \BattClock.log.txt.

Hey ZuinigeRijder,

Was just wondering if you were considering a second display area? With all this usefull information you are adding to the program, 3 lines aren't enough. I find that I could use 4 pieces of information from this program (not including time).

I think it would be great if we could make 2 boxes. 1 that could show time and date (I would place it over the current clock) and another with ram and CPU (which I would put over the start icon),

Thanks!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ZuinigeRijder:
There should be also another log file, battclock.log.txt. Can you post that too?

Apparently the standard API GetIdleTime() is not (correctly) implemented in your phone/ROM.

Are other Samsung users have the same problem?
