Hi everyone,

I have developed a bus arrival time widget for windows mobile as i cant seem to find any on the marketplace/web.

You can download it at nichola.110mb.com/wm/

Mirror

Please help to test it out and report any bugs.

Click on the stop name in the query to add a bookmark. You should see a tick.

Cheers.

SBS Bus Time

Get bus arrival timing for buses in Singapore

Install Instruction

Download the .wgt file and transfer it to your phone

Install it using File Manager like when your installing a .cab file

Samsung Phone i.e. OMNIA II

Install total commander or other file manager.

Browse to the location where the .wgt file is using the file manager

Use the "Open With" option and choose Windowswmwidgetinstaller.exe

Widget should begin installing

Other i.e. cooked rom without Widget Engine

Download and install enable_widgets_wm6.5.cab (Download), which will updates your phone with registry settings for widgets.

Try installing the wgt file now.

If it does not work, try the Samsung Method.

If the file "Windowswmwidgetinstaller.exe" exists does not exist,

You do not have the Widget Engine installed in your rom. You should find a rom with the whole package or try add_widget_engine_v2.cab (Download). This will install all the required files and registry entries

Soft reset and try to install a widget

It should now work

Cool! Although I drive, this cab will still be useful to my daughter.

Any chance that you might want to work on a Widget for Straits Times?

Thanks.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] afoongwl215:
That could be my next project :)

What kind of feature do you want for the widget?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] zard:
BTW, I don't know how to install your widget. I remembered reading about widget installation before but can't find the information nor remember how to do it.

On the Straits Times widget, I was hoping to be able to catch some local and world news snipets. This would be handy if there is no time to read it in the morning.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] afoongwl215:
Hi Zard,

To install, download the app into your phone using pocket ie and check the open after download option.

You can also

1) download the .wgt file

2) copy it to your phone

3) open file manager and click on the .wgt file like your installing a .cab

please go here to offer suggestions on the ST app.

Cheers.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] tonz22:
hi bro..

good apps for me but when i flashed Merlion Leo v1.90 rom

i can't install this apps , could you tell me how to solved it.

Thank you.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] afoongwl215:
Hi tonz

please try this

1. Download and install enable_widgets_wm6.5.cab (Download), that updates with more registry settings for widgets.

2. Try installing the wgt file now.

If it does not work, then try to manually register wgt or install wgt engine.

Look if the file "\Windows\wmwidgetinstaller.exe" exists,

1. If it does exist, get "resco explorer" or "total commander" and install one of them

2. Browse to the folder where the .wgt file is located

3. Inside the file manager select the .wgt file and use the option "Open with"

4. Browse to the \Windows\wmwidgetinstaller.exe and select that file.

5. The widget should install

If the file "\Windows\wmwidgetinstaller.exe" exists does not exist,

1. Apperently you don't have the widget engine on your rom, so you should find a rom with the whole package or try the cab below: add_widget_engine_v2.cab (Download). This will add all the files and registry entries the widget engine uses.

2. After the installing of add_widget_engine_v2.cab soft reset and try to install a widget

3. It should now work

Do post back if it works.

cheers.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] tonz22:
Thank you so much bro..

the last one work for me . good app and wait for the next version
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] elementalfusion:
The is seriously good! Keep up the good work! :D
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] afoongwl215:
Hi everyone version 1.2 of SBS Bus Time has been released :). Please grab it from my website.

Cheers.

Edit: forgot to add. Click on the stop name in the query to add a bookmark. You should see a tick.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] afoongwl215:
So How do anyone like the new GUI? Any comments?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] afoongwl215:
that can be done. what do anyone think of a virtual numb pad to key in stop no?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] yongck7:
This is good, thanks. Actual it is a pain for me to use HTC keyboard to enter the bus stop#.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] elementalfusion:
I discovered something strange. When I check the bus stop no. 12099 (bus stop opposite SIM) it actually shows smrt buses too and their timings. I thought smrt didn't have this service?

So far this is the only bus stop (that i know of) that shows smrt buses and their timings too, wonder if it's a bug?

You might want to look into it. Meanwhile, this program rocks! I use it daily now :D

ps, i get [object error] everytime i start up the widget, it still works but the error is annoying
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] afoongwl215:
currently the database that the application is using has SMRT buses for some stops. Their arrival information is derived from the public transport@sg site. Not all stops are supported only (100) i think.

regarding the [object error] popup, another user is also getting it. however, most of the other user do not have this problem.

Can you try somthing. go to menu -> about. click on reset setting. click ok. totally exit the application and start it.

this is what you should see.

1) a popup asking if you want to enable auto update. take note of the current time and post back with your operator name and time which the popup appear.

thanks.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] dongster:
a very useful app. now I know whether to run or craawl to the bus stop!

the bus stop at clementi has smrt timings too.

was just wondering if there is a better way to locate arrival information of a bus stop that I'm going towards but I do not know the bus stop number?

n maybe also the possibility to show train timngs?although the information is available at the train station, personally,I that such information is most useful when we are gong towards the station.

perhaps I'm greedy. haha. but really appreciate your great work n I'm already looking forward to your next innovation!

a very big thank you.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] zard:
Thanks for the update to v1.2. I found out that the bus stop number has to be obtained from iris website. Is there an easier way to find out the 5 digits bus stop number?

When using v1.1 last Friday, I didn't know about the 5 digit bus number and I just type in the number on top of the bus stop, e.g. B04 and I got error message. I thought your app wasn't working. ;)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] afoongwl215:
Hi Zard, Bus stop number can be found on the singpost next to the busstop. it is also available on the board with all the bus information.

Hi dongster, as this is a widget, i am unable to have access to GPS and stuff. therefore i cant use the Google map API to get bus stop number.

I am not sure if the train arrival information can be retrieved online. if it can be i should be able to integrate it into my application.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] zard:
Thanks for that. That's the problem of driving. :p
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] afoongwl215:
Hi everyone version 1.3 has been released. Smrt buses has been disabled currently but it should be up in about 1-2 days time
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] zard:
Very nice! Good job and thanks.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ssseeel:
wonderful app. Are u able to implement the feature that it can auto show bus stops near your location?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] afoongwl215:
Unfortunately I'm unable to do that as a widget do not have access to GPS.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ssseeel:
locating ur position through cell tower? dont need gps.. like google map
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] afoongwl215:
Lol. A widget is basically a browser application. i.e. Something you see in internet explorer. it is unable to have access to any of the phone API. Will have to rewrite everything in .net to allow that functionality.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ssseeel:
i see. haha thanks all your effort.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] afoongwl215:
SMRT bus support has been enabled. Please report any bugs. SMRT bus time query should be faster.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] yclam:
Hi this is great widget, have been using (v1.3) since installation. You indicated Feb 18 SMRT buses also incorporated but could not find them, eg BS# 53139. Where is link for v1.4(?) Many thanks.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] afoongwl215:
Hi could you check if your stop is supported by publictransport@sg.

Only these stops are supported. Other stops will only come when either it is added to publictransport@sg or if SMRT has its own arrival time query service.

http://www.publictransport.sg/publish/mobile/en/list_of_bus_stop.jsp

Version 1.4 has not been released yet. I'm currently working on it.

Cheers.

Hi thanks for the information. I have just fixed the bug.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] michealjohn:
Not able to get the .wgt file

I am using HTC Touch Diamond2 and I am very much interested in SBS bus arrival time.

I have total commander installed on my mobile.

I have downloaded the SBS_Bus_Time_1.4.zip file from your site but not able to get the SBS_Bus_Time_1.4.wgt file.

How to get the widget file?.

I have installed the enable_widgets_wm6.5.cab and it was successful.

I am having wmwidgetinstaller.exe in windows/ folder.

Please help whether I am missing anything and how to install it.

thanks.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] afoongwl215:
Hi please rename the ZIP to WGT. and it should work
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] michealjohn:
Hi afoongwl215,

Thanks for your quick reply. And I have managed to install it. I will try this application and let you know.

And one more question, basically I am a J2EE developer and I would like to develop the mobile application. Can you help to advice on it?

thanks.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] afoongwl215:
Hi basically there are 2 types of application currently a widget and a standard application. To create a widget all you need is javascript+css+html. Whereas for a standard app you will have to program in c/c# etc. Depending on what you want to do. A widget allows for quick development. i.e. GUI etc whereas the standard app allows access to stuff like gps...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] alvinkh:
i seems to be keep getting this error with most of the programmes.

guys, so help me take a look at it
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] afoongwl215:
Hi, Are you trying to install it on a omnia2? could you please rename it to .widget and try again. Alternatively try following the omnia 2 install instruction listed on my homepage.

The file may also have been corrupted. Try redownloading it.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] alvinkh:
yup i'm using omnia 2.. had managed to instlal it agan after redownloaded another version of it.. thanks afoongwl215

however i got another problem now, after installation, and when i run the program, it showed a blank screen instead of anything on the screen.

i'm running on win 6.5.5 lite rom, is there any other programs i need in order to make sure the program run well?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] afoongwl215:
lite rom?

could you list out the steps that you took to install?

is samsung widget program installed? the program that is on your home screen.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] alvinkh:
i had got total commander on my phone,

installed add_widget_engine_v2.cab

rebooted

installed sbs bus timing v1.4.wgt (finally installable after i install add_widget_engine_v2.cab)

thereafter selected sbs bus timing from start

i got it working previously on wm 6.5, i flashed to win 6.5.5 and it's not working now :(
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] afoongwl215:
hmm... I have not tried it out on 6.5.5... will try out the 6.5.5 emulator when I get home. I don't think that's the problem though. might be cause the widget engine in the cab is not compatible with 6.5.5.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] alvinkh:
hmm ok.. hope will be able to solve the problem.. i like this app a lot
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Presto80:
encounter a slight issue yest,,,

does this apps work wif smrt bus?

1) when i clik interchange, i realise theres a few missing interchange like choa chu kang, bukit batok etc..

2) some biustop cant be found , eg 43371 at bukit batok whihc i tink has alot of smrt bus, nt sure got sbs bus anot?

nto sure if all the related problem is due to smrt buses or the terminal is mostli smrt bus?

hope some1 can shed some light..cos i tried to used it ytd and found it not working..

thanx

btw im using v1.3
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] afoongwl215:
Only limited SMRT stops are supported. Your stop is not supported by the pubic transport@SG site. Other stops will be supported when it is supported by the publictransport@sg site or if SMRT has their own online bus query system.

SMRT only interchanges are not supported currently as they do not have an online bus query system.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] afoongwl215:
Have tried the 6.5.5 emulator. It's working fine. Is it possible for you to find a rom that has the widget emulator installed?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Presto80:
oic..thanx..

so the transport@sg is nt verii complete..
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] alvinkh:
hmm ok.. will look around for more 6.5.5 lite road to be avail

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] michealjohn:
Amazing application!! Great work!!

My brother is having iPhone and using the similiar application for SBS bus time.

That's why I have also searched to get this application for my Windows Mobile. But, in this application i need to key in the busstop to get the bus timings.

The SBS application for iPhone which my brother is using is cool one and no need to enter the bus stop. It will automatically detect the position (GPS) and it will retrieve the nearest bus stop bus timings. cool na..!! :)

Whether It's possible to do it with OUR application.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] afoongwl215:
Its been a long time since the last update. Im waiting for windows marketplace to confirm my account. Heres a beta version of 1.5. Download, extract and try it out.

Cheers.

Have added in bus guide feature. and also to disable specific buses so query for stops that has alot of buses should speed up. In bus guide mode click on the stop id to query that stop.

[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DK2000:
Can anyone tell me what the screens says once you pressed R to reset it. Do I just have to turn it off / on or is further input required? It was running on batteries when I was resetting it - but with 100%.

Background:

Hey there! Since some days my Xperia X1 had a weird error. It worked very well until you opened the Keyboard - then the screen got messy and stayed black even if you closed the keyboard again. Getting it into "Standby" by pushing the Powerbutton for a sec and an 2nd time to "wake it up" everything was fine again (the screen was ok).

It stayed ok until you slide the Keyboard out - even if just a tiny bit, the screen got messy and once fully opened it got dark and stayed dark, until it was closed again and sent into Standby and Back...

Sending it into Standby while the Keyboard was open did not work, it hat to be closed...

I hoped that I could solve this error by a Hard Reset - so I did, but to press the "R" Button I had to use the Keyboard.

So the screen is black again and I don't know if it is still doing a Hard Reset or if it waits for further Input (once you have pressed "R" to reset).
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flamingsamurai:
You have a hardware problem, the flex cable is worn out and would have to be replaced.

But to answer your question you have to press space bar after the R.

While using internet explorer on my HTC P3300, message appears that I am running out of storage memory. I am trying to find junk files or unused files, but without success.

if its an original rom your using try flashing your phone, this will free up memory on your device, install everything to an sd card.

if you flash, uspl cmon - first!
[G1 General] digitallysick:
the 3pg container is horrible to deal with. Only thing that seems to play it is quicktime. And its a pain to convert constantly.

Why can't android record video to a normal forward that universally works on all media players. Like Avi or Mpg ?
[G1 General] daveid:
The G1 lacks the hardware required to record to mpeg.

The G1 lacks the software to mux into another container than 3gp.

3gp was designed to be used as a container for mobile phones, due to lower storage and bandwidth requirements.

The G1 records video that can be played back on almost any 3G phone.
[G1 General] lbcoder:
*EVERY* media player I've tried works fine with it.

mplayer, xine, vlc, etc.

How many media players do you need?

And no, what you propose would be a really bad thing; 1) AVI is about the CRAPPIEST container that ever existed -- makes NO provision for A/V synchronization, so you better damned well hope that the audio matches the video or it'll look like a really old kung-fu movie. 2) MPG container is NOT SUITABLE for anything besides mpeg2/MPA, so scratch that idea.

If you really want to put it in a different container, mencoder or ffmpeg will do that for you without even transcoding. You could even do it right on the phone since there is virtually no CPU overhead.
