Nice work!

Nice work chap!

I have installed it on my HD2, and so far seems to be running fine!

---------------------------------------------------

If the original author doesn't mind, I have made a small addition for those of us with Mortscript!

PLEASE NOTE: The first version I posted of this script had a small error, which wrote the registry entries as a STRING rather than a DWORD. This caused "Blinker" not to launch - due to an invalid data entry. I APOLOGISE for this - the joys of writing scripts after a long day at work. This is NOW FIXED, and tested on two different HD2s, and working fine.

View attachment 435220

This .ZIP file contains two files.....

blinker.ini -- a simple settings file that explains where (and how) to adjust the various settings for...

Notifications when connected to AC

LED colour change when battery level falls below a certain threshold %age

Time delay between "blinks"

Length of time of each "blink"

It also allows you to set the various "blink patterns" for...

Low Battery Blink Pattern

Normal Blink Pattern

No Service Pattern

Off Pattern (When "blink" is shut down)

On Pattern (When "blink" is turned on)

blinker_v1.mscr -- a script file that reads data from the .ini file, displays the settings, and writes them to the registry. It then restarts Blinker with your new settings activated!

At present I have assumed that you have installed the app into Device Memory, so you'll have to copy the two files into DEVICE/Program Files/Blinker

Have a play and see what you think!

A very big thank you to Zevele - and I hope you don't mind me making this little MOD for it already!!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] kajos:
Very nice program:)

If I turned flight-Mudus on / telephone off, another orange blink occurs (in addition to the regular one) as described

But, if there is suddenly no signal, it don't will be shown in anyway:(

(I simulated it with the death-grip->iPhone4:)

->....or there is no signal, another orange blink occurs

I have HTD HD2 with Official 1.72 WWE ROM.

I installed this cab and when I tried to launch, it crashed:

Blinker.exe

KeyNotFoundException

at

System.ThrowHelper.ThrowKeyNotFoundException()

at

System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary'1.

get_item(SequenceTypeKey)

at Blinker.CBliner..ctor()

ar Blinker.Program.Main(String args)

Any ideas?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] kajos:
Net Compact Framework 3.5 installed?

I have the 1.72 Vodafone, too...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] hgalanos:
Yep .net3.5 is installed.

I have checked, and I also have a large number of apps/mods that require .net3.5 to be installed, they all work.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] zevele:
Not at all, I'm glad that people show interest. I might add a configuration utility later, similar to the one you made.

Thanks for the mod.

I didn't know the HD2 had a "death grip", how do you do it? I could use it to debug this feature.

Is this the full log? If not, can you please post the full one. At the moment I have no idea why this error occurs, I'll need more clues to solve it...

thanks

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] namwollem:
Oops!

Mortscript fixed now! Please RE-DOWNLOAD from my original post.

Sorry for anyone who did used and suffered with problems!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] hgalanos:
Got it working.

I uninstalled, rebooted, reinstall, nothing. Still crashed with the erroe log I posted before.

Anyways, I decided to change my taskbar, so I uninstalled the Dusk taskbar, and SDKSert2015 (this was required for dust taskbar to work).

I rebooted.

I then reinstall 'blinker', launched, perfect. It works.

Very odd, but I don't care.

A job VERY well done, good work which is very handy and as you will see, more and more people will download and use it.

Great job, thank you.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] hgalanos:
Just though I would share the following:

I change the blink duration to '100', an the blink intervals to '5000'.

I might even change the duration to be '60'.

I found this better as you can't mistake it for an SMS, Email or missed call notification. The longer duration makes it clear that it is simply the phone being alive.

This is not criticism, simple personal taste. Without our your app, none of this would be possible.

Well done V.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] zevele:
Dusk taskbar looks very nice, why did you ditch it? what are you using now?

I'm glad to hear that it works now...

Thanks,

Z.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] hgalanos:
Yes it is very nice, but luckily just by chance, it fixed this app.

I reverted back to what I had before dusk. Brians Black & White. The text is more legible than dusk.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] zevele:
The blink duration was left by mistake... It does't affect anything... if you want to change the duration of the blink you need to edit it's sequence, if you want a blink of 60ms, change "NormalSequence" to "G60" and "LowBatterySequence" to "O60".

for detailed explanation on the configuration you can check the second post.

BTW, you can use a more complicated sequences other than just orange and green, this would make it even easier to differentiate from the normal (sms/email/missed calls) notifications...

Thanks,

Z.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] hgalanos:
You are correct (of course) it did nothing when I changed it. I made changes as per post 2. Thank you.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] namwollem:
New Version!

I have updated my mortscript so that ALL of the settings can now be changed from the .INI file!

You can now set custom "blink" patterns without having to use the registry! (I appreciate that its not a problem for most of us, but some ppl do not like to trawl thru the registry, so this makes life easier for those folks!)

Please see POST # 4 which has now been updated with a new .INI file, and a new v1.0 of the MORTSCRIPT file!

Enjoy!

And thanks again to Zevele for making this possible!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] zevele:
namwollem, thanks for the effort...

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Marct77:
Fantastic addition to my phone,many thanx for this.

One question though,is there a way to have this Auto start rather than having to

go to Start menu and activating it ?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] namwollem:
Shortcut

If you use File Explorer and COPY the executable (blinker.exe) from "PROGRAM FILES/BLINKER" and then PASTE SHORTCUT in "WINDOWS/STARTUP/" this will "autorun" the app each restart!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] gpobernardo:
Thanks, zevele.

Right after installing version 1.7, the blinking stopped after around 2 minutes (with the same settings with which the older (1.4, 1.5, & 1.6) versions worked). Performing a soft reset fixed the issue; looks like a soft reset is necessary right after installation.

With regards to the "midnight bug", I made initial tests (thrice) by inducing a change of date by setting the time just a few minutes before 12 and allowing the time pass normally. In all three tests, after passing the fake midnight and observing just a few more minutes or so, the blinking did not stop. However, by doing that, the time on my device is no longer synchronized with the "correct" time. So, just to be sure that the midnight bug's fixed, I would be observing the behavior of the application further, this time while using the "correct" time.

I'll keep you posted....so far, my LED's still blinking.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] zevele:
gpobernardo, first - thanks for testing the fix. I'll post a the link on the first post.

The fix was very minor and shouldn't affect anything else (afaik...). Let me know if this issue returns.

Z.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] gpobernardo:
You're welcome.

By the way, the application no longer stops at midnight. Good work!

Thank you for the app! It's the least I could do in return.

Great job! Keep it! Very good!;)

Hello Mister,

Report :

i encounter a problem using Blinker on my device, i have Wisbar Advance Desktop skin, then when i will power off my device, i can't !

It appear with 1.6 version, when screen is oFF, it s not real oFF then it result a battery drain...

And led seems to be same as before...

I think you can't reproduce my problem, a device specific issue, but i will report this, if you know what i talk about !

Anyway thx for this apps... will follow thread and test anther version later..

Have fun !

Ps... a small gift from a skinner...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] zevele:
If you use "Force unattended mode" the phone won't go to sleep (as you describe).

"Use wakeup notification" will periodically wake up the device.

Make sure both are disabled, and see if the problem is solved. But, keep in mind that without those settings Blinker may be halted after a while.

Thanks! :) I'll use it as the title of the thread...

Z.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] lesscro:
@ Zevele...

thx for answer... really needed...

i will explian more issue... i disable with 1.7 both undesired feature...

When i use Wisbar Advance desktop, i have a script include in Porgram... like Launch action when device Wakeup...

When i start Blnker... thsi feature does not work anymore... same with 1.7...Other it seems to be all custom registry Led are saved...

PS... Blinker have now a personal identity with this new Logo... :o
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] lesscro:
With a fresh install and soft reset... now works great... but i think consume a little bit more battery than before, maybe because LED have more effect...

Good work !
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] koldtek:
This works on the Motorola ES400s! Thanks for a great application, actually, the only application for the ES400 that works.

The ES400s has 3 different colors, Green, Amber and Red. The Red led works, not Amber. Green works randomly. When using O25, the led flashlght for the camera activates! Which means I can use your app as a flashlight...when I miss a call lol.

For the ES400, missed notifications will blink if I just put "S100", which is what it's set to now and works very well. Normally when the ES400 gets a missed notification and is idle, the LED stops blinking. Your application, when set to S100, allows the LED to keep flashing even when idle, which is what I wanted initially.

I know this is an HD2 forum but, is there any way you can develop a small app to control the camera flashlight using whichever function your using for "O" on the ES400? I will gladly donate whatever cost to devlop such an app.

There is no development for the ES400 unfortunately. But in any case, thanks for a great app that works on the ES400.

hi all, how about this over Android? (ideosX5)

i'd like to see network signal blinkin on my Huawei IdeosX5 too... any plan for it? appreciate for this great work... regards...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] zevele:
You can try changing the LED IDs in the settings application so it will work properly. You could also set one of the custom LEDs to the flashlight (If that's what you'd like).

I could write such application, but it might take me some time...

You're welcome - I'm glad you find this application useful.

Z.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] zevele:
I might port this app to android as well... actually I'm currently working on porting AutoLoudspeaker...

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] gpobernardo:
Hello, zevele,

Looks like version 1.7 has been very stable...since it has remained at 1.7 ever since the midnight bug fix. Just a suggestion: would it be possible to add a blink option/configuration for GPS without affecting the stability of the application? It would be nice to know if the GPS antenna is working in the background or not since this consumes battery too.

Thanks, and good luck!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] zevele:
I don't know if it's quiet because the application is stable or because WM is slowly fading away...

Looks like it shouldn't be too hard to implement a blink according to the GPS state. I'll post a new version once it's done.

Well... can't promise it won't affect the application's stability - with every change there is a chance that something will go wrong :p

Z.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] gpobernardo:
Hahaha, both could be true :D

Thanks.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] zevele:
Version 1.8

Here's version 1.8 with gpobernardo's request.

Didn't do much testing though... so let me know if there are problems...

Check the first post for more information.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] zevele:
Apparently there is an issue starting the service from the settings application, you can still start the service manually by executing "\program files\blinker\blinkerCPP".

Hi,

here's version 1.9 fixing the problem starting the service.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] raduci:
GPS affected

Hi Zevele !

First of all congratulations for your work !

I want to submit a small problem: After the version 1.8 I have noticed that after the installation and configuration of Blinker the GPS on my HD2 stopped working, it could not find any satellite. After the uninstall of application it returned to normal.

The ROM used is Dutty's HD2 (Legacy) Cont.WWE with Radio 2.15.50.14.

Did anybody else encountered the same problem ?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] mfti:
Hi,

I have the same issue with my HD2 than raduci. my radio version is the same too. it's the last from HTC official site. I think it's a good idea to implement the notification for gps because that's what's missing on hd2. there is no way to verify if an application uses the GPS in the background on HD2. Note that the HD-Mini (the little brother of hd2) has a icon status in the taskbar.

Thanks very much Zevele for your great application, you are on the good way, and remember, WM65 is not dead !
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Ahmed Jalout:
Thanks alot Mr.Zevele, very nice work and works fine, I had a friend showing me his Xperia Phone which has an Andriod System and it has this function, now I can use it on my HD2, dont't have a credit card, I have nothing more to say a Million Thanks and God bless you.

Blinker v1.9 battery used

Hello Zevele,

Blinker is working correctly in my Rhodium,

but it is use high battery, therefore I cannot use this tools. I mean when battery is 100% percent, and blinker 1.9 is active, it is used 20 % about 1 hour.

Do you know why?

Many thanks.

gaZSy
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] zevele:
I never had power issues with Blinker. The problem might be with Blinker preventing sleep, try setting wakeupnotification and/or set allowunattendedmode to zero and see if that solves the problem.

Another possibility is that one of the notifications cause the high drain, try removing all sequences and see if it still show high power drain, if it doesn't try enabling the sequences one by one - maybe we could identify which feature leads to the high current drain.

Z.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] gazsyka:
Thanks for fast reply.

Ok, I will try it, but I don't think it will solve my problem, because if I stop the blinker it is used more power. In the future I will try clean install.

Surely you can help me zevele :

if i want to ad a sound every 10mn after blinking led every 15 secondes.

How must i set the string ?

edit : well, i found how to:

Pl\sound,Stime,L50(50 is exemple to set the string before the sound comes again),Ptime,Stime...,E

...for every Phone, you can use a "death-grip", with the difference,

by the not modified iPone4, the Problem will be happening in normal use.

The antennas of the Hd2 are in the lower part, right there where the hardware-bottons are.

Take both Hands, and enclose the lower half of the Phone to build a Faraday cage.

Certainly, it's helpful, you do this were the signal is bad;)

The very best method for instance is, to put the Phone into a microwave,

this is a very good Faraday cage and it has a window to look in;

but, don't turn it unintentional on, the HD2 will be demolished immediately;) :(
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Marct77:
Thank you Namwollem,that appears to have done the trick :D
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] PeeHoo:
Big BIG Thank you

For making this original request to dev's I really want to thank you zevele for makin this nice application!! :):):)

For everybody: I had a girlfriend years ago and she had Sony Ericcson mobile phone. (Personally I hate SE phones). Anyway... I had Nokia (because I am finnish ;)) and that time there was no WM-phones. And in her SE phone was nice blinking LED when phone was powered on... And I had to admit that I was even a little bit jealous.

And now after many non-wm-phone years when I bought HD2 I realised that it is really annoying that phone do not told that "I am here, I am alive".

Now Zevele answered to this and LIKE ALWAYS, our DEV:s even did more than asked...

I installed it hour ago and this seems to be just perfect!! Just need to think a little bit correct & nice intervalls and lenghts!

Once more!! Thank you very many from Finland!!!!!!!!!!!

edit: Because under pressure I need to tell that this girlfriend is now my wife and mother of my daughter (thanks for the blinking led's ;))
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] iBlade67:
Thanks to the dev also. Useful little app.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] dchd310870:
Mate, Ive edited mine as well, Thanks for little tutorial in post #2, helped a lot.

Here's mine now......

delay is set to 1250(4688)

blink length to 100(256)

sequence G100,O100

Low Batt seq O500,G500,O500.

No mistaking now that its on....

So, once again thanks for the App and the little ability to understand a little more about the registry...

(edit) although now, my nosignalsequence doesnt work.... mmmm

I see it too, I thought I solved the problem, but apparently it still exists... I'll need to further research this, if anyone knows anything about the issue (unattended mode) now's a good time to say something...

Just uninstalled and re-installed and all now fine, but thanks for your quick reply.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] zevele:
Ah, maybe because the application is not properly installed on my device (I use a debug version on my device...) I'll try reinstalling and see if the problem goes away...

It also maybe because the application is installed to the storage card... where did you install the application to?

Thanks,

Z.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Andy-D:
Installed in the main memory. I'll keep an eye on it and see if running any apps causes it to stop, but so far so good. I did adjust some of the settings beforehand, but this time I have only change the interval from 10000 to 5000.

"...I didn't know the HD2 had a "death grip", how do you do it? I could use it to debug this feature."

-> Post #5, #9, #21

What's the news about the "no signal difficulty"?

I hope, you can fix that :)

Principally, the App-idea is so nice :)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] zevele:
Did you always install it to the internal memory, or did you previously installed it to the storage card?

I suspect that the problem might be that the storage card is powered off in suspend mode.

Well, I need to find another way to identify the signal status (now I use SystemState). It's a little bit hard to debug this feature without the ability to get into the no-signal state properly (grip of death does not work for me, and putting the device inside the microwave is also a little problematic for me)... Nevertheless I think I'll be able to solve the issue anyway...
