Yes, especially if some things are not developed too user-friendly - but sometimes it's really not easy.

I try to do my best, to get an easy to understand controlling - but it's not easy with this much features of a profiler. But I think it can compete already with the usability of the commercial apps :)

The best thing in WinMo is, that you can do it like on your PC - install and have Multi-Tasking of the Apps. Ok - side effects are always possibible in Multi-Tasking, but it's like the "real PC life" and so no single-App-surroundment. So the possibilities are not restricted - and are the prejudice for something like e.g. a Profile App like CHTS.

OK - I understood :) And I think it's really ok - especially because BHS Interceptor is anyway working for a Full Theme Switch preparation - so there are things like TaskBar anyway inside. Then I can integrate this preparation in CHTS.

But it's not good, if you say, that your ROM isn't as stable, as you want it. What's the problems? Something with CHT or something common with anything else in system?

Regards

Micha
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] grymcent:
It's unstable because I a, using Faria's ROM which is heavily cut down and modified for looks and flow. but it was pre CHT2.0, so when I add some of the other heavy mods on top ..... bang!

With CHT2.0 I occasionally loose a QuickLink icon, but it reappears after a reset.

It hats Forelayer, which is a shame.

Now that I have a working (ish) copy of CHTS and some worthwhile themes I will get off my rear end and re-ROM it (especially now I have found the DINIK super thread of everything.

For some reason my PC never finish a Download of the Energy ROM's, or I might have switched already!

I think even with a fully working ROM I'd still want the Dialer and Taskbar to match my homescreen, so would still enjoy the benefits.

Cheers, your efforts are much appreciated.

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] MichelDiamond:
And something like DeepShining ROM for your device isn't ok? For advanced users there is a stock-like version, as far as I have seen (I would always recommend a version without CHT cooked in to be more flexible and avoid side-effects. Better to install the CHT-Suite by .cab on its own - even a ROM runs faster with CHT cooked in... but: personal opinion :) )

Forelayers are a really nice thing, yes - I schedule them in mostly each of my profile only for fun :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] BHS Interceptor:
All right, little feedback from my side regarding "Theme Switching", or "Changing" as I prefer atm...

All program icons are switching and also Dialer skins (calculator and phone) as well as a bunch of other elements :D But as written before, it´s on my testing devices atm only. It´s a bit tendious to make it work for all ROMS and Devices, since they use sometimes different names for the elements and there is no data base to draw from. Identifying all needed and used elements takes up a lot of time and there is also a lot of "secretism" going around these issues. But we´re working at it. I might be able to start some tests with Taskbars and Sofkey bars next week, but I´m pretty confident we´ll get this sorted out as well :D
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] MichelDiamond:
Yes, I think the same :D - and this will give to Sense a maximum flexibility. If somebody, who made a very complex Style or Theme for Sense, wants to accompy this switchability - feel free to write to BHS Interceptor or me by PM.

Automatic wallpapers

Hello,

I got suddenly a strange issue with Wallpaper change on all screens.

The wallpapers are no more changing !?

Any idea ?

[edit] Even if I try to set one with CHTeditor, nothings works.

BHS Interceptor ?

MichelDiamond ?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] MichelDiamond:
Soft-Reset?

Installed a third party app?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ChefChaudart:
Yes

No.

In fact I disabled CHT Lockscreen ( too many issues), and then I went in settings of Sense to set a wallpaper for lockscreen. And then all problems came out :confused:
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] grymcent:
Re-enabe Lockscreen, remove the lockscreen wallpaper. then disable it again. and see if the other wallpapers now work!

On anothee note, something I noticed while building new themes, was in the Sheduled Wallpaper settings:

You can have

Dir for Portrait

Dir for wide Portrait

Dir for Very Wide Portrait

Dir for Lockscreen

Dir for All Portrait

Dir for All Landscape

Dir for Forelayer

Dir for Today Portrait

All fantastic, but where is

Dir for Landscape?

Should be after Very Wide Portrait and before Lockscreen shouldn't it?

While you are doing such changes, can you create a setting in Scheduled wallpapers for them to change every x minutes instead of once at a specific time?

Cheers

Awesome work

grymcent
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ChefChaudart:
Thanks,

I solved my issue by restoring CHT settings.

Which file stores the directories path ?

Cheers
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] BHS Interceptor:
Hola and first of al thanks for helping out with Chef´s WP issue ;-) I´m kinda lost chasing manilas for the "Full theme switch" so I barely monitor the thread atm, but the rest of the team and the OP are :D

Hope you found your directory for Landscape in your answer, and regarding the "change every x minutes", this feature is available and easily missunderstood as "set to specific time..." :o The time shown when setting the wallpapers to switch refers to the time interval between each switch and not the actual time (hour) of the day, so if you set the time to 00:30, this means that the wallpaper will switch EVERY 30 minutes and not AT 00:30 ;):D:)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] grymcent:
???

Isn't Directory for ALL Landscape for every page of sense? not just the homescreen?

DOH! seems I need to re-flash my ROM as that wasn't working for me very well.

Thanks

Grymcent
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] BHS Interceptor:
Yes, this one defines all tabs... I guess you missed ONE, the one for Home Tab Landscape in your former list ;)

Dir for Portrait

Dir for wide Portrait

Dir for Very Wide Portrait

Dir for Lockscreen

Dir for All Portrait

Dir for All Landscape

Dir for Forelayer

Dir for Today Portrait

HOMEPORTRAIT= Home Tab Portrait

HOMEWIDEPORTRAIT=Home Tab Wide Portrait

HOMEVERYWIDEPORTRAIT=Home Tab Very Wide Portrait

HOMELANDSCAPE=Home Tab Landscape

HOMELOCKSCREEN=Lockscreen (Protrait)

ALLTABSPORTRAIT=All Portrait

ALLTABSLANDSCAPE=All Landscape

FORELAYERPORTRAIT=Forelayer (Portrait)

TODAYPORTRAIT=Today Portrait (start)

Not sure if to reflash or HR, but maybe consider re-installing CHT/CHTE/CHTS and then decide ;)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] grymcent:
I'm confused as to why it doesn't appear in the list for changing the scheduled wallpapers.

or is this another case of my ROM not coping well with CHT2.0.

I think My ROM didn't have a clean copy of .net CF as some other progs have issues with it crashing. Time to Task29 I think.

I've tried reinstalling etc several times, recently I have been dropping Quick Links when I use scheduler to change.

grymcent
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mariconjo:
Micha,

I used the search function but can't find the answer.

If I want a different layout in my weekends can I only change the quicklinks? The rest is greyed out.

You see, I have this BL_alarm widget on my home screen, but i don't want to see that in my weekends!:)

thanks in advance.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ChefChaudart:
I still have one issue. The Very Wide Portrait is not always correct. Sometimes the image comes from Portrait directory !??

That's why I asked where these directories are stored ?

And a last question about the "change every x minutes" feature ; let say you set 10h00, but your profile last 6h00. Does it mean it will change 4h the second time the profile will show on ?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] MichelDiamond:
No, you mustn't HardReset :) I simply made one directory for Landscape. Nobody wished so far a differentation between Home&All Tab there.

Does Landscape-wallpaper change for all tabs including home tab on your device?

Regards

Micha
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] MichelDiamond:
No, mate. It will switch your whole Layout.

The greyed out things are for information, what's saved with standard or extended.

CHTS does the work for you. It's simply: WYSIWYG - What you see is what you get :)

So make the Layout in Sense by .cab's, ChtEditor,Widget-Moving like you want it and save it (extended) with CHTS as "Layout_while_workweek" or so and then change all things in Sense, that your Sense looks like it should look at weekend and save it e.g. as "Layout_for_my_weekend".

Assign the Layouts to the Profiles, which represents your workweek / weekend - and CHTS will show it, like you want :) Easier than you perhaps, thought - I made CHTS so, that the user doesn't need to configure much - CHTS does this partly complicated things all in background for you. :)

You can do the same for Evening, Night, whatever... - in Quick Manual and Main Manual you'll find additional hints.

Regards

Micha
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] MichelDiamond:
The very wide walls

I think that CHT has sometimes problems with very wide walls on some devices. So nothing, where I have influence with CHTS. To convert a wall to very wide, CHT needs sometimes much memory for a short time, and this can fail.

change every hh:mm

if you set every 10:00 hours for wall and your profile lasts 6 hours, then your wallpaper is simply not changed :)

It has 2 advantages, that I made wall-schedule timeout up to 23 hours 59 minutes:

1. some users have longer than 1 day the same profile (mostly users of manually mode)

2. the wall-change-quicklinks works for the specified directories (in next version you can also set default directories, if wall-scheduler is not activated, so that there also the quicklinks knows, where to find the wallpapers to be switched by quicklink)

Regards

Micha
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ChefChaudart:
I reduced all sizes, but no change.

Could you tell me where folder path is stored ? I'd like to confirm that what's stored is what's displayed on CHTS.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] MichelDiamond:
in hkcu/software/htc/manila

cht.wall.*

greetz
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ChefChaudart:
ok,

in my case , CHT.Wall.HomeVeryWidePortrait & CHT.Wall.HomVeryWidePortrait are empty !

I set a value, it works ... until next change. The values in the registry have disappeared !
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] BHS Interceptor:
Hola Chef, are you sure you´re also saving the changes you make every time in/with CHTS and the corresponding profile/layout?

Please also check "RegSettings.txt" in _CHTS Folder and corresponding profile on SD card ;-)

Example of one of my profiles where SD Card is "Tarjeta de almacen"

....

CHT.Wall.HomeLandscape

s\Tarjeta de almacen\HTC HD2 Wallpapers\HTC_HD2_WallPapers_set1\Grey_Mesh_L.jpg

CHT.Wall.AllLandscape

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ChefChaudart:
There is no "RegSettings.txt" in \_CHTScheduler\ on my SD Card.

There are (old) ones in \_CHTScheduler\Baseline.2.5.20191914.0\, and in \_CHTScheduler\FULLSENSE_Sense_dd-mm-yy\

I set a lunch time, from 12h00 to 13h00, & set interval to 23h58, and every time it switches to this profile, I got a new background. ( Which is what I want )
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mariconjo:
Okay okay, that should be very easy, even for me:D

I have different profiles (morning/work/afternoon/evening/night/weekend)Do I have to safe the layout in every profile? I ask this because if I make a weekend layout and safe it what is going to happen with the layout when the weekend profile switches to night profile?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] MichelDiamond:
no, it's enough to save a profile one time (you can do this also over "save layout" in menu of left softkey)

Then you can choose one Layout for as much profiles, where you want it.

I added only there also the possibility to save the Layout, that you find the save-option easier.

Usually you only choose one of the existing Layouts in this Layout-Dialog of a Profile.

Regards

Micha
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mariconjo:
Micha,

thank you very much for your quick and clear answer! I am editing the layouts now and let you know.

Greetings Sjaak.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mariconjo:
Micha,

I made a weekend layout and attached it, off course, to the 'weekend profile'. I switched manualy to the 'weekend profile' and all went well. So I made a second layout(work) and waited for it to switch automaticaly...there it went wrong for some reason. Sense tried to restart but for some reason it doesn't restart??

What could be the problem?

Thanks in advance.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] BHS Interceptor:
Hola Chef, seems that the WP were not saved or set in your other profiles...

So please check in the corresponding WP settings for thos profiles, or in general settings that you have not dissabled the WP switch ;)

If you want the wallpaper to switch with a profile (lunch for example), you can also set this as initial wallpaper for that profile, and your other wallpaper as initial for the other profile, etc... This way you assign a specific wallpaper to that profile :)

Hola, there was no attachment to take a look at, but if manual switch worked for one profile and automatic failed for the other (Sense loop - sense not wanting to start), I would recommend one thing first:

1. Check and make sure "active sync" is not blocking or interfering with SD card ;)

I know, this is kinda obvious, but I had to mention it... If not active sync, the please try the following:

1. Try to access start menu (win hard button) and dissable sense.

2. Go (with sense off) to CHTS Scheduler and check that "failing" profile and make sure all is set correctly. Save, exit and apply (no problem sense beeing off anyway)

3. Go to CHTSwitchGui and switch manually to a working profile, then RestartDevice

4. Enable sense again and try to switch to that failing profile manually ;)

If it still fails, then there could be an issue with some path saved incorrectly or a file missing in that profile, or problems with addon slots or addon widgets, or.... simply issues with SD card or active sync beeing on while trying to access SD card and thus boom, Sense won´t start ;)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ChefChaudart:
No, my problem is different. WP are changing, BUT on first screen, the very wide is not ( always ) taken. Sometimes it comes from my 800 * 480 directory !???
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] kmz_god:
Hello. I only use this for the automatic wallpaper change . I used this with 2 diferent roms , cht2 . The problem is that my phone slows down very hard when is the time to change the next wallpaper , and i can`t use the sens buttons for half of minute or the time or respons is very delayed, the windows button key works after half a minute .
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ChefChaudart:
What´s your phone, cause on my HD2, no problem !
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] kmz_god:
htc hd2 , current rom : Omega Rom v23 , Radio 2.02.50.27_2
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mariconjo:
Ber, thanks for your answer!

I disabled 'sense' and checked my 2 profiles/layouts and they seemed to be good. If I go to CHTSwitchGui and manually change to one of the 2 checked profiles everything changes perfect. Of course sense is being restarted while you get another layout. I am now waiting what happens if the profile/layout switches automatically...to be continued:)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] BHS Interceptor:
Hola Chef, hard to tell from the distance... Could be due to the actual name of the WP or the Folder... Could you post the CHTSSettings.xml to take a look at it?

Should not be like that.... Any other apps running in Background while this happens? Connections, active sync, e-mail, etc...?

So does on both of my HD2s, fast and reliable...

Hmmmm, if your running "indie´s" latest ROM on 3.14 base (which one?)

Omega XT v23 with Co0kie's Home Tab v2.0

Omega XT v23 with Co0kie's Home Tab v2.0 with eReader

Omega XT v23 with Co0kie's Home Tab v2.0 without HTCMessaging Client

Omega XT v23 with Co0kie's Home Tab v2.0 without HTCMessaging Client with eReader

Omega XT v23 with GTX 1.8.5 Sense Theme

Omega XT v23 with Diniks Anastasia customization and Co0kie's Home Tab v2.0

Omega XT v23 Black With Great Alexander Theme and Co0kie's Home Tab v2.0

Omega XT v23 with MaxSense v1.05

Omega XT v23 without HTC Sence (Titanium)

... then maybe you should also check your radio version. Seems to me it´s still a very old radio your using ;)

Recommended Radios for Omega ROMS:

Radio 2.10.50.28_2

Radio 2.11.50.26

Radio 2.12.50.02_2

Radio 2.14.50.04

Radio 2.15.50.14

Your welcome ;) If manually works that way, maybe it would be worth also checking the "powering" options for switch. If you want, we could also go through your CHTSSettings.xml

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ChefChaudart:
Thanks in advance ;
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] MichelDiamond:
The one thing was already answered by BHS Interceptor.

The second possibility is the Powering and its delay.

There are 2 Settings in CHTS for it:

Settings -> "Powering Device While Profile Switch" ... try another Powering there, e.g. "Regular" or "Natural"

Settings -> "Switch Options" try to change "Profile Change Delay Rate" to a higher value, e.g. 30. Perhaps the change is to fast for your Sense (Default is 10)

Please tell us, if that perhaps helped. Like you said: Manually switching works with the Layouts - so it must be something with the things, which happens while automatic switch.

Also disable Switching while Locked for the tests, if you have enabled it.

Regards

Micha
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] MichelDiamond:
Hi,

which Wallpapers do you change?

Forelayer / Very Wide and Today use much Ressources to be changed (I can't influence this) - but a half minute, where nothing is possble... that's too long.

Could you activate chtstateLOG while the switches and also upload CHTSSettings.xml?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mariconjo:
Micha, Thanks!

I will try and let you know!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mariconjo:
just 1 quick question:

I have 5 different profiles and one of them is called 'weekend'. For only this 'weekend 'profile' I want a different layout, so I made a 'weekend' layout' and attacbed it to the 'weekend' profile.

In my opinion I must make a second layout and attache that to the first profile after 'weekend' to get my normal layout back? In the rest of the profiles I can then enable:'don't change layout'.

Or am I wrong?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] MichelDiamond:
Absolutely correct :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mariconjo:
Thanks again!:D
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Zahurtex:
Thanks!

Congarts! MichelDiamond, I must tell you that you are doing miracles in shape of Scheduler and Loco...

Believe me I am a long time user of profilers but your applications surpasses all those big names, with so many options to choose from and many many choices I am sure both these apps. will be super fine after just a few updates.

However I have noticed one thing in Loco that at my house I have 5 cell towers and at my friends place very nearby maybe 5min drive loco gives two cell towers one same as my home, what could be the best for the two common towers at two diff. places.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] stathis95194:
You should wait for the next release of CHTS Loco. It will allow you to do exactly what you are asking for. Even with the common towers, CHTSL will be able to distinguish if you are at your place or at your friends ;)

Have some patience and i am sure that you will be absolutely amazed by the work of Micha for the next version and the new things to come!!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] grymcent:
Right so I have re-flash (Simplicity - WOW).

now back to the issue with Landscape Wallpapers.

In CHTS Walppapers you have:

Dir for Portrait

Dir for wide Portrait

Dir for Very Wide Portrait

Dir for Landscape

Dir for Lockscreen

Dir for All Portrait

Dir for All Landscape

Dir for Forelayer

Dir for Today Portrait

But in the scheduled wallpaper section

Dir for Portrait

Dir for wide Portrait

Dir for Very Wide Portrait

Dir for Lockscreen

Dir for All Portrait

Dir for All Landscape

Dir for Forelayer

Dir for Today Portrait

We are missing a Dir for Landscape

I know it's not a major issue, But I like to mess with my homescreens background, but I prefer the rest of the Tabs blank or with quieter backgrounds.

What am I missing?

Problems with Profile Switch

Hello,

i installed CHT 2.0.0 and CHTS 2.16 (incl CHTS_Links 216) on my HD2

For testing i set up 2 profiles in CHTS.

once with Bluetooth on an on with bluetooth off.

I now set the two profiles on quicklinks.

but when i want to switch the profile i notice that i have

to press the quicklink twice (with a pause) to take effect.

although i can see a short reaction in the titlebar.

is this a known problem and how can i fix it?

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] MichelDiamond:
@Landscape in scheduling walls different for all tabs and home tab - this was my mistake and I have simply forgotten it. I can't promise it for next version, but it will be corrected.

@BT-Problem: I still can't reproduce that special problem - but nevertheless it will be made very flexible in next version, so that it should work on all devices (also on devices, where the CHT-toggles for data never worked so far)
