i'm using the pnd version ..... i just unzipped it ang copied it to my phone .... it runs pretty well and runs at full screen mode, unlike when i "install" the WM cab .... when it runs it doesn't exactly run full screen .... the start menu bar of WM6.5 stays on top ..... even when i go to iphonetoday's option for full screen.

Now i've been trying to make a .lnk file to put into windows/startup folder ..... but no success hehehehe my last try was something like this

40#\iPhoneToday.exe - and saved it as .lnk file .... copied it to the starup folder .... but when i boot up the phone ..... windows says the program is not a trusted certified etc etc .... is it because i didn't really install the program.

i just copied a code from an MSDN example on making a .lnk
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] tito12:
I don't understand why you make it so complicated :)

Go to program files\iPhoneToday, long press on iPhoneToday.exe, select copy. Now go to start up folder, long press on empty space, select paste as a shortcut and there you are (you can rename it too). Next time you reboot it will launch iPhoneToday. I just did it now :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] tronikos:
--relaunch checks whether the timestamp of the settings.xml and icons.xml have changed and if yes it reinitializes.

For what you want to do put the value 1 to the reloadIcons registry as michoob suggested.

BTW, why do you have to copy the icons to Program Files? They can be in the storage card and referenced with their full path in icons.xml. Furthermore, why do you have the exe version under Program Files in your PND? It can be anywhere.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Volki21:
Yes .patch files are made for the source code. The exe I posted on the previous page does not contain the bluetooth toggle but the wifi toggle is already in there. I hope the toggle functionality will be integrated into the main trunk, so the official iphonetoday will have it by default.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ChrisGarner:
Ah ok, i understand.. But i'm unable to find wifi toggle.. How to activate it?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Osprey00:
marc2040,

You have a top offset of "7" for the bottom bar and ShrinkToFit is enabled. One or both are likely your problem.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Volki21:
You have to write --wifi_toggle as executable in the icon you want to use as the wifi toggle icon.

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ChrisGarner:
Thanks a lot!!!

EDIT: Volki21, i found a little bug in your modded exe... When i launch a fullscreen application, windows taskbar (on top) remains in foreground, after few seconds disappears... If i close iphoneToday exe (even with IT today plugin) and launch an application, nothing happens: taskbar remains in backgorund as usual... I returned on today plugin.... :(

NO - we both are wrong!

The reason is, the layout created as

non-font

.

So the setting got to be like this:

Font facename="Arial" size="0"

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] apax:
did you know when the official release of the next version will be, just curious?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] xfindeer:
1.5.3 is already released,isn`it ?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] michoob:
nope, it is not.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] apax:
yeah, it's still in the beta stage....i'm waiting for the official version...

haha, without the bugs...:)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] lorier:
Suggestion for a future release :

When you scroll from the last page to the first one (right 2 left), it will be better to have no break between the pages (no screen w/o icon).

ie: when you slide last page to the left , you will see the first page icons like if it was a new one.

also, the same for the other way : first to previous page (left 2 right sliding)

I'm not sure I'm very clear...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] michoob:
You mean you would like to be able to cycle from last to first.

Let's say you have 5 pages, and you are on page 0, you want to be able to go always to the right from page 0 to 1, then 1 to 2, 2 to 3, 3 to 4, and 4 to 0.

MiToNiOeS has stated it is not possible to do it because of the way iPhoneToday is designed. And the way iPhoneToday is designed makes it fast.

So I guess that tronikos won't be able to do that either.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Sir.John:
@lorier

Michoob is right, but if you take your time to fiddle with the "Out of Screen" tab as well as the "Movement" tab in "Options" you can most likely find values (valid only for your phone) that minimizes the "rubber-band" effect so much, you will only hardly recognize it and instead think, the pages were actually cycled/wrapped. Perhaps this does as a compensation for your?

Why is it that when I reboot, it resizes the screen too large? How can I disable the auto resize and just tell it what size to be all the time?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] racerjake:
I love this app - but I have this same problem on my 6.5 TP2. Is there a fix?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] sonox:
Dear tronikos,

thank you very much for your Application....it ´s really graet.

I use it on my HD2 and it works PERFEKT...

For my self I use it tigether with MobileShell 2, ´cause I have a better structure for the subfolders (Games; Office and so on....)

How ever, I want to give you a very big THANK YOU

Greetings

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] sunk8:
Another cool thing I'll like to share...

I have an HTC Touch Viva with a cool Touchflo.

Touchflo plugin when activated, kills all the other Today plugins.

So, I run iPhone Today over Touchflo.

When I launch settings and apps through iPhone Today (eg. SMS), it actually accesses the TouchFLO's interface which is way better than the Windows Mobile one... :)

Thanks :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] m4f1050:
Surprisingly enough I rebooted my phone yesterday (after months of use without having to do so) and when iPhoneToday came up I had no icons, except for the weather one which got updated by iPTWeather. I had to go to Settings/Today, turn off iPT off and then back on for it to regain the icons. Is this bug been reported? Is there a different workaround?

Thanks.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] tito12:
Executable or exe in short, either you look for the shortcut in Start Menu/Programs or the exe in Windows directory
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] thesecondsfade:
I'm having a problem with redrawing the icons when switching orientation modes. If I switch from portrait to landscape (or vice versa), sometimes it recognizes that I switched and redraws the icons appropriately, but then other times it swithces the view but redraws the icons using the portrait dimensions (ie: phone is in 800X480 mode, but draws the icons as if it was in 480X800 mode). iPhoneToday is setup to figure out the dimensions automatically. It happens when I specify dimensions in settings as well though. I have to refresh the today screen in order to have it redraw correctly. Anything I can do to fix that?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] thesecondsfade:
Are your iPT icons located in your device memory or your storage card? That'll happen if they're located on your storage card and you have your phone hooked up to USB in Storage Card mode. It can't find the icons cuz it's looking at a location that is unavailable.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] m4f1050:
No, they are not in storage card, they are on phone's memory and I don't have it plugged in (usb.)

Here is another issue... BTW, this is a Touch Pro2 (Sprint branded)

I installed nueNoBar v2 (and even version 1.3 which kept scrolling my icons up and up and up until they left the screen, very whack but fun to watch! :) )
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] sureshot007:
That is similar to what's happening to me! The screen resizes too large for the device. I just want to hard code the size.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] tronikos:
I rewrote your code. Let me know if it still works.

Soon :)

In fact it is possible without any performance loss.

options->general->height
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] tronikos:
everyone,

Here is iPhoneToday 1.5.3 rc2.

If you encounter any serious bugs please report them within the next 2-3 days so that I could fix them before the 1.5.3 final release.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] sureshot007:
I set the Portrait height to 655, and it cuts off the bottom of the icon, including the text, but there is still a ton of room between where the bottom of the icon is and the bottom menu bar. As I play with the sizes, going from 655 to 650, everything shows, but I have noticed that the space between the bottom row and the next one up is too small, and the 3 dots that tell you what page you are on are now at the same level as the top of the bottom row icons. Is there a way I can see what the current settings are after it auto sizes?

But when I change it back to 0, it resizes too long and puts the icons half below the bottom of the screen, just like m4f1050 was talking about.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] alexeyshb:
Hi! What changes from rc1? And how can I update it? Uninstall old and install new?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] jjdavola:
How to Install/Update.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] michoob:
That recalls me an issue I had with IPTWeather and iPhoneToday 1.5.1 and 1.5.2, and if I am right, you should set IPTWreloadLastDataOnStart=-1 in the weather.ini of IPTWeather to avoid that (with the latest IPTWeather version which is 20100528), or download latest iPhoneToday 1.5.3 release candidate (because I think tronikos has corrected the issue some time ago after the version 1.5.2).
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mandrewthebarbarian:

Installed 1.5.3 rc2. No issues so far.

Is there a change log?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ChrisGarner:
Thanks tronikos! i'll try it immediately!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ChrisGarner:
For wm mobile 6.5.x (start button on bottom) i set 695... Everything works fine! For wm 6.5 i think you need to set a lower value...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] lorier:
@tronikos

can you include the modifications made by Volki21 in the 1.5.3 release ?

(wifi toggle and no effect of right key in the exe version)

Thx !
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] TWiG420:
new version is working so far, so good..

--wifi toggle is working great for me, as well as the Wifi signal strength icons, though the --bluetooth toggle is not working for me.

http://code.google.com/p/iphonetoday/updates/list
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ChrisGarner:
I don't understand this one:

This means it is possible to use ipt commandline in another software? How?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Osprey00:
I think that it means that, for example, just like how you can already run "iPhoneTodayCmdLine.exe --wireless" (or "iPhoneToday.exe --wireless" for the PND version) from scripts and other apps to toggle wireless when iPT is running, you can now do that when iPT isn't even running and it'll run iPT (silently, i.e. no GUI), toggle wireless and exit. EDIT: Yes, I've now tested it and that's exactly what it does. It don't have wireless or bluetooth on my PND, but --rotate confirmed it for me. It's a clever little feature and might be handy for some people.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] woody10:
thx tronikos, :)

I'll try and see it
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] shinji-man:
Hello.

@tronikos

Version 1.5.3rc2 can not change the background image. I could change the background image in version 1.5.3rc1.:confused::confused:

iPhoneToday is a good application.thx.

Please do your best.

I will support you from Japan.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ChrisGarner:
Ok i understand... So if i would use a ipt command and i have ipt exe closed, i have to necessarily open ipt exe, right? Is not possible to pass through commandline.exe without open ipt?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] michoob:
@ChrisGarner: I think that "you can now do that when iPT isn't even running and it'll run iPT (silently, i.e. no GUI)" means you can use some of the iPhoneToday command line WITHOUT running the iPhoneToday GUI (Graphical User Interface) so WITHOUT openning iPhoneToday...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ChrisGarner:
Ok... So sintax command of (for example) wifi toggle is?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] sureshot007:
I'm actually on 6.1 right now - just playing around with it because it is SUPER fast.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Osprey00:
ChrisGarner,

I answered both of your questions in my original post. Just substitute "iPhoneToday.exe" (that's only for the PND version) with "iPhoneTodayCmdLine.exe".
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] schlork:
Osprey00

is there anywhere a description, how to work with "iPhoneTodayCmdLine.exe"?

I believe, as ChrisGarner postet here,

your answer to him is fully right, but he probably don't know how to do.

@ChrisGarner

I believe (and please sorry, if I am wrong!!), what Osprey00 meant is via Mortscript you can execute

for example

Run("\Program Files\iPhoneTodayCmdLine.exe", "--close")
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] tronikos:
schlork,

iPhoneTodayCmdLine.exe is meant for controlling the dll version that you can obviously not close so your example won't work.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] schlork:
Sorry tronikos,

due to copy and paste just as an example from my device, I forgot to change --close to --wireless

Run("\Program Files\iPhoneTodayCmdLine.exe", "--wireless").

Is that right then?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] michoob:
I think that with the newest version, the new thing is that you can run the following mortscript without any active iPhoneToday (no GUI running: no exe nor dll):

Run("\Program Files\iPhoneToday.exe", "--wireless")

At least, that's what I have understood from Osprey00's posts.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ChrisGarner:
Ok guys, at this point i wait an explanatory post from tronikos with detailed information... :D

Btw, does anyone know if will be implemented a phone switch (for toggle phone on/off) like as bluetooth and wifi?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ED2O9:
This is probably a stupid question (there are no stupid questions... just stupid people who ask them), but I've searched numerous threads and FAQs and came up with nothing.

Can you (and if so, how) change the font color for the text that sits over the clock, free RAM, battery, etc? I'd like to change it to black if possible to improve visibility.

Thanks!

Nevermind... I just found it tucked away under the Special Icons area of the Options menu.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] sonox:
....do you mean?

Options/Special icons/Type (Battery....) Color....press the grey Button for change the color.....

Greetings

sonox
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] michoob:
You need to install MortScript, then, write in a text file called, for instance, toggleWifi.mscr (the mscr extension is for MortScript scripts), with the following line in it:

Run("\Program Files\iPhoneToday.exe", "--wireless")

Then, even if iPhoneToday is not running and you run toggleWifi.mscr, the Wifi state will be toggled WITHOUT running the GUI iPhoneToday.

So your Wifi state will be toggled and you won't even see that iPhoneToday has run.

Do you still need something more to be explained? ;)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ChrisGarner:
No, everything is clear now... :D

Thanks a lot for the explanation!

@chord_clandestine:

Looks interesting but also a bit confusing for me. Can you explain how you made it? Maybe you upload your settings/ icons.xml?

__________________________

@tronikos:

I think a found a little problem:

I downloaded version 1.5.3 RC2 und updated my version (RC1), I kept my settings and icons.xml of course. I'm German and "Start Menu" is named "Startmenü". After the update all my "Startmenü"- Entries were cutted to "Startmen", I had to write the Umlaut "ü" by my own again.

Thank you for your work!

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mickael91210:
Hello,

It is the same for me (french System). After a reboot, my icons don't load because of a bad icons.xml.

So I stay with RC1 + IphoneToday.exe of "Volki".

Thanks for your hard work.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] michoob:
I guess the words on the top and all the words close to the icons (+Music, etc.), are on his wallpaper, under blank transparent icons.

Then, it's easy to understand how he did it, but it's a lot of work to do it, isn't it?

COngratulations chord_clandestine!

May you share your work, please?

fullscreen patch ?

Could anyone please advice if standalone .exe version fullscreen patch would be (or it's already there ?) incorporated in 1.5.3 version of iPhoneToday ?

I've checked changelist on google code - but can't see any reference there... :confused:
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] chord_clandestine:
@chancer63- you are absolutely right. so many things to do.

@michoob- actually guys im new here. and not so familiar with programming, file.*** etc. but ill try my best. im on designing. using adobePS.

anyway, all the thing u see.. the words 'application+photos etc blah2' are all icons. and yah, not a wallpaper.. i tried to add some wallpapers on scrolling icons but seems if u apply 1 wallpaper, then it wud be set to all pages of your icons just the same wallpaper.

how did i do it:

i set icons to 80px (or 78px, i think) size.

then black background.

photoshopped my design plan.

den cut every 80x80px from dat design turning each to an icon.

and checked vertical scrolling for additional icons below

(so u can scroll downward like in WM7)

told u so many things to do but im willing to share this one.

are u guys still wanna try it?

PS: i still dont know how to attach files here.

sorry so noob. ^^

1.5.3-rc2 --bluetooth switch issue

Small issue noted - when in iPhoneToday 1.5.3-rc2 I use bluetooth icon with

--bluetooth switch it for some reason drop visibility i.e. if in Settings I set bluetooth mode to 'visible to everyone' - and then use --bluetooth option to switch it off and then back on - bluetooth would be in 'invisible mode' ...

Should it be that way or small issue exist ?

And also issue spotted with items/path whit Russian chars - similar to one reported earlier in this forum. in 1.5.2 everything was O.K.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] sinoo:
Same for me... thank god I backuped my icons.xml... :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] michoob:
Actually, what you can already do, is set a wallpaper that is wider than your screen size, and as wide as your screen widht multiplied by the number of pages you want.

You should then also set the scroll option for the wallpaper.

So I don't think tronikos has something to do here... ;)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] tronikos:

Feedback for 1.5.3

Just realized it with the official release... :) Thanks tronikos...

@tronikos

Here is my feedback for the brandnew release 1.5.3 of iPT.

As RAM, phone signal and wifi images are not working, are mine not named right?

What is the correct name to use for toggling those images?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] chancer63:
Here is a part of icons.xml:

<icon name="" image="ICONS\IE.png" sound="" exec="\Windows[SIZE="5"]\Startmen[/SIZE]\Programme\Verbindungen\Internet Explorer.lnk" parameters="" execAlt="" parametersAlt="" type="0" animation="1" />

As you can see, the umlaut 'ü' is missing. It works when you write it manually but with each restart of the phone or IPhoneToday it is missing again.

But as I understand you already solved that problem.

CU
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ChrisGarner:

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] chord_clandestine:
wm7-iphone inspired setting using iphonetoday

@ChrisGarner: tnx.

but its not actually a mod. just a setting. if many would love my iphonetoday setting then im willing to be a part of developing this UI. I just design, but not develop. anyway its just my way of going beyond wm7-iphone original UI.

Anyway. just a bit more for my setting:

it is designed in QVGA. setting every icon to 80px by 80px.

so in my screen would just make 3icon by 4 icon. 12 seen on screen.(more if scrolled downward)

just a constrain if you are planning to make 4icons in every column,

my design plan would not that fit best.

my setting's:

PROs: combined UI of windows mobile 7 and iphone.

icons are set vertically and horizontally on pages.

icons category are identified/specified on every page.

cant think of more.. haha

CONs: the 'word' in the design plan are merely icons. just pngs.

No quick launch dock. (but its up to you f u want to

maintain the dock below.)

it's all for now.

if you want my work, you can buy me a mcfloat!! weee (tnx in advance)
