Artemis 52 & CHTS save problem SOLVED!!!

PERFECT for my too.... Thanks
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] MichelDiamond:
Nice to hear & good to know :)

My device has still a hardware problem and I had much other things to do the last week - but next version will be able to change profile because of location. I have to do some fine-adjustment for it and look then for the results of beta-test.

(yes, it will work for then for gsm and cdma)

3G-Toggle will be then also integrated in CHT/CHTS

Because of the things, I described above, I can't promise the next week as eta, but I would say, that you will get it in february.

Regards

Micha

Automatic wallpapers

Hello MichelDiamond,

I your next release, will you change/correct something in Wallpaper changing philosophy, cause this option drives me mad :D

I got a profile where they do not change, I have no idea why ....

Cheers
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] MichelDiamond:
On my device they change fine :)

But I have anyway to extend some things in this corner, so I will look, if I see a possible reason.

Error 11 - solution

Greetings.

This has already been discussed via PM with MichelDiamond and thought I would post my adventure with Error 11.

Sometime ago for unknown reason CHTS stopped functioning. Nothing would save, load, change, etc. and I was greeted with "Error 11. Please report at xda-devs." Basically CHTS was corrupted and all things it touched were unusable. Have no idea what I installed, did, etc. to cause this.

Things I tried:

1- Accessing CHTSSettings.xml - but this file had been corrupted and was not able to be opened, copide, altered. There was no backup file generated (normally with .sich at the end.)

2- Uninstalling CHTS, deleting CHTS folder off my SD card, deleting program files, etc. Still the error would come back.

Solution:

1- Hard Reset

2- Reformat the SD Card (wiping it completely clean.)

(Basically starting completely fresh.)

Now it is working as expected.

Cheers.

Separate Wallpaper Directory for each Profile.

I have been using chts and its amazing!! I have trashed all profilers which I uses previously...

I have one question and I tried to search for it and came across this post #1124 but it is not exactly what I am looking for....

I wanted to assign a particular wallpaper directory for each profile change, suppose if profile changes to Day(saveMyDay) it should look for the wallpapers in the directory assigned in this case Day and change randomly wallpapers from that directory and if the profile changes to Night it should change from the another directory supposedly Night, names can be whatever user assigned.

what happens now that if you change wallpaper via profile you have to assign a particular wallpaper and chts changes the same wallpaper every day but if it could be assigned a directory and changes wallpaper on each profile change we could have a different wallpaper every day.:) I normally just change the Wide Portrait wallpaper with the profile change.

I am sorry if above have been answered before and if not may I request the inclusion of this option in the next chts update.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ChefChaudart:
I´m not sure I understood what you mean, but I did myself assigned different directories to different profiles. ( i.e. Week Ends have a directory for special wallpapers )

But as I said earlier, it does not work always like it should.

Maybe I made something wrong, but I do not understand.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] cmsc:
There is a bug that Micha is already aware of, and that is that if you set a "automatic" profile switch with no associated layout change, the wallpaper does not change, and is stuck on the previous profile's.

For example, it happens to me when the phone switches from Night to Day, the profile when in Day is still stuck on the Night wallpaper, instead of rotating form a dicrectory set for the Day profile. If you then reload the Day profile manually, then the wallpaper switches correctly to the Day directory wallpapers and starts to rotate.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ChefChaudart:
Thanks, I thought I was mad :p
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Zahurtex:
If you read the last paragraph of my post it is very clear that you cannot assign a wallpaper directory for the profile but you have to assign a particular wallpaper if you try to assign a directory chts instead set this: DefaultWallpaper.jpg :\Program Files\CHTScheduler whereas my wallpaers are on sd card.

It happens sometimes and others chts changes as per set profile change. You have to test diff. settings in Powering device while profile switch options.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] cmsc:
Using different powering options do not solve it, at least not for me, and it only the wallpaper setting that does not change.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] MichelDiamond:
Sometimes it's a combination of more than one setting perhaps. The powering is one of them, I would think, too.

Attach chtssettings.xml (compare with FAQs) - perhaps something is to see there.

Next CHTS will have extended logging mechanism, then it could be easier to see.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] MichelDiamond:
Hi,

thank you - you're welcome :)

I hope I understood it:

If you want different walls from a directory, then so far that's possible with wallpaper schedule (option under "initial wallpapers", which you are using).

Set it to a longer timeout, than your profile lasts - e.g. 20 hours.

Then the wall will be randomly changed each day or night from different directories.

In next CHTS you will have much more options for wallpapers and also for quicklinks to adjust them. There the profiles will manage all seperately their walls from the days before and are able to sort it alphabetically. Then you can change not only randomly like now.

In combination with location awareness it will be a nice wall game :)

I hope so long the random possibility with timeout is ok.

Regards

Micha
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ChefChaudart:
Cool

Thanks, it´s nice to see your are still developing CHTS.

But I´m anxious about CHT, there is no news from Co0kie ...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] MichelDiamond:
yeah, I know. Perhaps I have to update somewhen CHT, too. But there I made mostly the system parts, so I can only improve it, but for new Sense features, Co0kie is the expert.

So let's see, what's necessary.And if some guys of CHT dev feedback group can help then.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] cmsc:
Thanks Micha, we checked the chtsettings alerady but no avail, maybe with the next version will be easier to find, its not a big deal anyway :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Zahurtex:
Thanks your reply and its good to hear from you... Yes, we all looking forward to the next release of chts and especiallly the loco with integration capabilities with chts!!

I tried changing the scheduled wallpaper settings in the profile but it changed once after the first settings saved and then it won't change even after other profiles changed, I tried Switch Wallpaper toggle switch it won't change either so I first uncheck the wallpaper from menu Set Wallpaper and then set the scheduled wallpaper in the profile.....

.....and you know to my surprise after usual saving the settings at the exit another dialogue poped up with the happy face emoticon and with the Yes--No option its heading was "chts (20)" which exact words I do not remember but were something like this:

" You have made this settings on your own :-) "

Now you only know what this dialogue is all about... I was just surprised. :eek:
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] MichelDiamond:
:) Yes - I added a check, if something was changed externally to avoid complications :)

Yes - also for cmsc - I next version Loco & CHTS have a very good Logging to see, what happens. Also I improved much things, perhaps that's already the solution. We will see.

Informational: CHTS & Loco are now in Beta Test the next days. So let's see, what's the results and then I can estimate the ETA.

Regards

Micha
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Zahurtex:
So, That's an easter egg I got in there>>>!! I am the lucky one.. :D
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] MichelDiamond:
*g* Yeah, I like to hide easter eggs in my apps - in CHTS there are some of them :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] __:
PIN

I don't know, if this issue was already mentioned, but I suggest to give the user of CHTS the chance, to decide, whether he wants to be asked, everytime a switch is performed e.g.: from "FLIGHTMODE" to "PHONE", for entering the PIN or not.

Even when there are no changes in GSM made (when switching from one shedule to the other), the GSM connection is disconnected and then connected again (whatfor?), but you have manually to enter the PIN. So if my device is in my pocket, the shedule changes and in thet very moment someone is calling me I wouldn't even notice, he did!

When i always have to manually enter the PIN, when shedule is changing, i do need no automatically sheduler!

The other thing is, that everytime when the PHONE gets switched off, the "PHONE mask" is shown and has to be closed manually!

Is it possible to solve all this???

Than you!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] MichelDiamond:
May I name you "_", because your username is so long? :) *sorry 4 joking*

Some people switch off their PIN.. some other apps let you store the PIN to be entered...

CHTS is different: it has also "Network" besides Flightmode. Network doesn't needs a PIN to be activated, but it's almost the same as Flightmode. Please look into FAQs for the detail description.

So - you already have the solution, if you DON't use PHONE and FLIGHTMODE and use NETWORK instead :)

Excited ....

Hello,

How close are we from new version :p:D

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] m4rc3l1n0:
Hi Guys

I get the same error which says "the file 'chtstate' cannot be opened. either it is not signed with a trusted certificate, or one of its components cannot be found. if the problem persists, try reinstalling or restoring the file."

I installed CHT1.8.5 and CHTeditor 1.8.5 because I like the old slider :)

Device HTC HD2 T-Mobile

ROM: LP 6.5 [21895] v3 .

OS 5.2.2.21895

Manila 2.5.20121412.1 CFC

ROM version 2.10.LP WWE

HELPP
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] osiedacz:
It sounds like you are trying to run CHTS on cookie 1.8.5. You actually need to have CHT 2.0 installed in order to run CHTS. The chtstate file is part of cookie 2.0.

Also, if you are running cht 2.0 and want the standard sense slider, you can disable the cht softbar in the chte settings.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] m4rc3l1n0:
thanks for the swift reply osiedacz

and thank you for your insight on cht stuff

now i have another question

i just want to enable the wallpaper change scheduler only

(i managed to do that) :)

but then i have another problem

this wallpaper change scheduler stop after the phone enter the suspend state

it resumes function whenever i get inside chts and exit again

something wrong in my behalf or chts?

i'm not setting anything at all (only day mode with wallpaper change schedule)

thanks osiedacz
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] cmsc:
You have to activate in the setting the option of allowing profile change while device is a sleep, otherwise it will only do that when you awake the device.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] MichelDiamond:
That's intended behaviour (besides that you shouldn't need to start CHTS for scheduling on, but there I will look into again, ok?), because it's not good, if wallpaper is changed in suspend state (or better: resuming/unattended mode) in Sense.

some Roms would get system exceptions, some others would get massive battery drain.

The Wallpaper Changer is made, that you can adjust also short timeouts and you can be sure, that it doesn't switch if suspended.

But Walls will be changed if user interacts or unlocks his device.

To be honest: Why should a wall be changed, if device display is off? :) so I implemented it in a bit other way. In next version you will also get much extended features fir wall handling - but the basic princip that walls doesn't change if device was suspended, will remain.

So: just use shorter timeouts. if a wall should have changed while suspend, the wall should change a short while after wakeup.

Regards

Micha
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] m4rc3l1n0:
Thanks cmsc and Micha for replying

to cmsc

I did set it up so the device will do nothing when it suspend and i'm hoping that it will resume changing wallpaper after it wake up but it didn't

to Micha

I get the idea and it makes sense to not doing anything when the device suspended

I did use shorter timeouts (1 min and 2 min interval)

but it didn't resume the wallpaper changing after it woke up

so in the meantime I will be waiting for the chts update :)

thanks Micha for your chts, it rocksss
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] MichelDiamond:
Hi,

thanksss :)

also what csmc said, would work indirectly so long, because a new profile would cause a wall change.

But in your case, also the return from suspend should work and if not, I would need some information to know, where I should look:

I would need device info and could you activate chtstateLOG with chts-toggle, while a wall change is denied because of suspend, but not takes up work after wake-up.

could you simply attach then the zipped log to your answer?

Regards

Micha
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] MichelDiamond:
quite close, but in beta tests were some things, which costed much time to find out and there are still things to do.

so I know I wrote “february, but I also want that the things are working and so I must apologize, because I have not much spare time at the moment and I don't want to release a buggy version, so I need more time.

I will report, if it's to foresee, that there is no showstopper anymore and it can be released.

Regards

Micha
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] __:
Thank you for your clear answer.

It's exactly the thing I was looking for!!!

BUT... there is one issue, I can't ignore.

I like the option, that screen is switched off (standby), if covering the proximity sensor when lockscreen is activated! So I have enabled this in CHTEditor.

Also I have set in each profile to switch proximity sensor in LS (lock) on and to switch it in (all and relight) off!

BUT, after profile has changed and I switch on lockscreen the proximity sensor does no longer do it's job!!!

Why???

When I restart SENSE it works again!?!

I have tried both settings: to ignore proximity sensor while switching profile and not to ignore proximity sensor while switching profiles (Main Settings->Ignore special Layout-Settings->Ignore Proximity)!

I don't know, if this informations are enough to identify the source of error.

Could you please help me!?!

I am waiting with interest for your answer!

And (if you are not already working on this idea) I have three suggestions:

1. If this is possible (I think you are able to do that!), It would be very good, if there would be the option to create profiles that are dependent on both time and location.

That means, if you are at a certain place at a certain time the profile will change.

So, if just one of the two conditions is true, the profile will not change!

Nevertheless it should be possible, to create profiles which are dependent only on time and others that are dependent only on location!

2. The second thing is about the type of Data Connection.

It would be very nice if there would be the option to make CHTS automatically switch from EDGE to 3G when Data Connection is established.

Like you have done for Data Connection yet:

(Permanent Data Connections->Disconnect because of idle Data->"GPRS off if idle Data")

3. If you want to unlock your device, you have first to press a hardware button. But if you do so, the screen enlights twice.

Am I right, when I say, the second time of enlighting is because of the proximity sensor?

If my purpose is correct:

Is it possible to make the screen enlight only when proximity sensor gets activated?

Thank you!!!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] matd20012001:
damn damn....best thing to explore :D
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] __:
Thank you very much!!!

I am not able to comment on all the information, but for a start, ...

Here are the files, you were asking for.

One more question:

When will you publish the new version?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] MichelDiamond:
Thank you :)

But you gave me the wrong settings.xml, this is only the template. The current file is in \Storage Card\_CHTScheduler

(or in your case \Speicherkarte\_CHTScheduler perhaps)

From which to which profiles switches does this happens with your proximity sensor?

Release: Depends on the tests now - but looks pretty good. So not too far away, but I don't know, how much time I will have the next days, so an ETA is at the moment not to say... only "soon" :)

Regards

Micha
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] __:
Sorry about posting so late.

I've attached now the correct Settings.xml and Manila.reg.

I think the profiles are not deciding, because it happens at each switch (with every profile).

When I've been using the PHONE & FLIGHTMODE, I did not have this problem!

So in my opinion the NETWORK "mode" is the culprit.

Thank you for working on such a usefull App.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] MichelDiamond:
Thanx,

I think Proximity and Network have nothing in common...but I can imagine, that there could be a side effect.please use a higher number (=slower) update rate for profile switch.

In new CHTS the most settings will work sequentially transacted, so this side effects should be removed.

In your Registry, CHTS sets the values correct. So the processes must be a reason (or another Sense widget). we will see - because of the new CHTS.

I've also seen, that you use NoData-gprs and network often together. if network is off, gprs isn't possible anyway. so I recommend that you only switch, what you really need for this profile.

But like said: the delay rate can already help and in new CHTS the improved transactions.

Tests are very promising atm, so I need only some little things to change for chts 2.20final and loco 1.00final. Only the preparation of the Release in thread needs a bit time (screenshots, texts,...) - new version has much more CHT-Quicklinks, Wall-Features, Location-Awareness, Loco will be the first app, which will work indoors for a very exact locationing...and so profile switching, too, more Data-Options, Sound-options, Layout-handling and so on. And all can be used for CHT and/or Profiling. So I have to completely update 2 threads.

ETA is so within the next 5 days, if no showstopper will be found by CHTS-group, who are doing a great work to examine the new versions.

Regards

Micha
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] __:
Nice!!! Very nice!!!

Thank you!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] MichelDiamond:
It took me a little bit longer, because I forgot one feature and also found some things, which had to be fixed - but now Release Candidate 1 is in test.

So perhaps 2-3 days to Release (except there is a hard showstopper inside RC1) - with much news for CHT or Wallpaper-Freaks or Location-Fans or Profile-Lovers or so... :)

I can't wait it's release!

Thanks a lot!!!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ForgetfulGuru:
Thanks for this info

You take your time my friend. I am sure most sensible people would rather wait an extra week for a fully functional New Version, rather than doing a Microsoft and releasing a broken application. just think of all the posts it will save. All saying the same thing ," it's not working for me".

Though on a purely selfish note, can I have it now, lol.

Guess it's time to do some new room icons.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] BHS Interceptor:
You nailed it :D It´s better to wait and be safe, than to be to bold, to fast and thus to crash... And yes, guess you´ll have some "iconing" to do :p

And on that "selfish" note... who know´s, if it helps you with the icons, maybe MD can arrange that ;)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] ForgetfulGuru:
While there is still a chance...

@ Micha really had been meaning to ask this for a while.

Could you make a version that displays the text within the icon with a darker colour please. Most if not all my icons have a light coloured glyph within the pearl white frame.

You know for the time showing on auto profiles and any others that show text.

What we get now------What I would like.

---

I appriciate that this maybe selfish of me and that we the greatful users of your app have had plenty of time to ask and make requests.. I'm not called forgetful for nothing :o

Tried unpacking the cab file to look for a mode9 or .lua file to adjust myself... no luck there then,all exe files and dlls. I love getting in there and mucking around sometimes but I would not know where to start with these or even if that's possible.

I ask with the greatest of humility oh great and glorious master of the arts, and any other toadying you would ask of me. :eek: no! not that... please don't ask me to do that......... using an iPhone would be a step to far.:D

Oh! please...Oh! please...Oh! please...Oh! please...Oh! please...Oh! please...Oh! please...Oh! please...Oh! please...Oh! please...Oh! please...Oh! please...Oh! please...Oh! please...Oh! please...Oh! please...Oh! please...Oh! please...Oh! please...Oh! please...Oh! please...Oh! please...Oh! please...Oh! please...Oh! please...Oh! please...Oh! please...Oh! please...Oh! please...Oh! please...Oh! please...Oh! please...Oh! please...Oh! please...Oh! please...Oh! please...Oh! please...

@BHS Interceptor

I know you'd like a look so just to make sure I posted a copy of my icon set for the new updates over on the Loco thread, just incase you missed it :( HERE
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] BHS Interceptor:
Ooops, I did miss it :o Sorry, and please accept my appologies for being so "ForgetFullToo" - hopefully the reason for this is worth it ;) But I just checked them, and they are really nice - as usual with your work :D
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] MichelDiamond:
I will rewrite CHTS-Thread now for Release of 2.20 - this will take its time. So please wait, until all is finished - I will change titles of CHTS-Thread and Loco-Thread as last thing and then tell here, that it's release.
