Toggle WiFi On-Off

Hello All,
Any good tip (shortcut/patch/tweak/app) to toggle WiFi On-Off?
Thanx
SiperX

Battery Status - Tray launch

What procedure to follow?
Battery Status...? How?
Could you indicate the path to create a shortcut with traylaunch?
Will the icon on Today actually toggle WiFi on-off?
Thanks,
SiperX

Hey SiperX
Just do the following with BS...
Options -> Tab "TrayLaunch" -> Mark "TrayLaunch" and "Active / Path to program... and you should see Wifi in the list there under, click ok.
And on your Todayscreen you'll see all the apps you've add on the bottom of the screen ;-)

I had an old BS version...
Thanks CoolGadget!
Now with the new version of BS it is all clear...
Despite the new version of BS offers a variety of cool features the actual WiFi toggle on-off is not performed (like for ex. the app " Cicle BT" does for the BT on-off).
Anybody has another tip/patch/app/tweak to actually toggle (activate ~ deactivate) the wireless function?
(I mean: One tap WiFi goes on, the next tap WiFi goes off)
Thanx,
SiperX

Hi SiperX, I use AEButon plus to switch wifi on and off, Button 1 is mapped to it. One press wifi on/off, double press bluetooth on/off. Plus it is great for loads of other cool stuff to make the artemis really easy to navigate one handed. One point though with black&blue v2 I have to first time after a soft reset turn wifi on with com manager but after that initial operation I can then just press button 1 to toggle wifi and bluetooth.

same here. I use AEButon plus to map my hardware buttons. I mapped the comm button to
one press - wireless on/off
two presses - Bluetooth on/off
3 presses - Comm Manager

Thanks to both of you
Guys thanks for the suggestion: That sounds more like the app I was looking for!
I'll try it out and let you know.
Thanks again.

Ups,wrong thread, sorry

More about my Bluetooth trouble...

Hi all,
A while ago I posted a message about my Bluetooth trouble with my GPS device.
I've narrowed things down to my bluetooth (either the settings, the hardware or the stack). I know for sure that there's nothing wrong with my GPS device...
The following happens:
-I turn on my phone
-I switch on Bluetooth using the Comm Manager
-I pair my GPS device
-Launch Tomtom or Route66 or Google Maps or any other GPS software I've tried
-It works perfectly for a few minutes
-Then suddenly I get the message 'GPS device not found'
-When I quit the application, I still can see the Bluetooth icon in the top bar of my homescreen
-When I enter the Comm Manager there's a red cross in the bluetooth icon, and trying to turn it on doens't work
-The blue light still blinks!!!!
-I can't enter the bluetooth settings, the device gets stuck (it hangs) for a few minutes
The only thing that works is resetting the device (turning it off and on again)
It happened in WM5 and it still happens in WM6!
Does anyone have a clue???
Sorry for my xxxth post on this subject, but I'm pretty much desperate!
TIA!

This May Help You!

Sorry about the Gender mix up, but you will have to create a new key, Oh! the key is not in any windows device, that why you are going to create one thats works!.......!

Hahaha, I just thought the lady on the avatar is sooooo damn cool!!!! She's a beauty of the eighty's (her name is Joyce Drake by the way http://rateyourmusic.com/artist/joyce_drake )

I've tried to edit my registry an add the key, but I find PHM registry editor quite confuding, so maybe I've added a wrong key or value...
So far, no succes, but I'll try another registry editor to check my editing skills!
I'll keep you posted!

Or try Total Commander!

I have tomtom 6 on my dash with other tweaks to run it.
Go into the settings click on the "Power Management" scroll down to the "Display Time Out" and choose NEVER and then go to the "Home Screen" settings for the "Time Out" choose NEVER also. Hope this resolves your issue.
Another issue could be due to your dash/s620 not being App Unlocked.

Thanks for your reply. I'll try it first thing in the morning!
BTW, do I have to apply the app-unlock again after upgrading the ROM?

i have to use a program called fake cursor and i enabled the jogg bar feature, fake cursor acts like a virtual mouse cursor so i can type in the address, choose options etc. i can use majority of the menus without it but you do need it some times, since tomtom is more for touch screen devices anyways. the joggbar i use mainly for the shortcut for the fakecursor. the bottom touch shortcut is set for the fake cursor app and the top shortcut is either tomtom or as mine is set to the fake cursor menu so i can disable it when im done.
So did it work? Another suggestion that might help, when I installed tomtom on my dads ppc and i couldnt get the blue2th gps recvr to sync properly, got really frustrated... I figured out that the my dash was the culprit, turn off any blue2th devices near you and then it worked instantly.

I posted a screenshot (post #10) to verify if I added the right settings. If I did it right, they didn't work!!
The disconnection of the bluetooth connection also appears when I'm in my car, and the only bluetooth devices there are my HTC and my GPS.
Thanks for your suggestions! I'm getting pretty desperate by now. The only thing I can try is using a different GPS device.
I'll keep you guys (& gals?) posted!

I always have Today screen after turn-on PDA

Hello,
I have a problem with my Hermes. Always, after I turn on my PDA, it go direct to "Today" screen. That means that if I have one program open, I turn off PDA, and then turn on again, instead of have this program open, I get "Today", and I need to use a "task manager" or similar for change to the original program .
Anybody can help me?
Thanks!
Sesaru
UPDATE: From samw52000:
This is a retarded WM6 feature that is enabled as soon as you have a password set for the device.
Remove the password, apps will stay open when the device is powered back on.​
Is there any way to fix it without removing the password? I need the password!

Sesaru,
Can you explain a bit more what you mean? When you switch on the Hermes it does go to the today screen after the boot screens as its default behaviour. Not sure what you believe the problem is.

You need the software X-Button
It adds a little icon on top-left corner of your screen.
When you click on it, it shows all the programs that are running, you can click on whichever one you want to bring it back up to your front screen.
It is similar to ALT-TAB on a PC.

I had nothing but poor performance out of X-button.
handy switcher is a better app and much cleaner way of doing it.

Hello;
I'll try again (I made the post at 3AM).
The problem is: I'm using the PDA in anyway (File Explorer, Office, etc); imagine that I'm using Pocket Word. Then, I wait sometime without touching any button or I push on/off button --> the PDA turn off (normal )
After that, I press on/off button (and then, the PDA turn on). The normal behaviour (I think) is to have open in my screen the last application I was using (Pocket Word), so then I can continue working directly... but the PDA always change to "Today" screen. So I have to use X-Button (or similar) to switch to the app I was using. And that is quite annoying ...
I hope I could explain better myself.
Thanks!

Go to SETTINGS, then TODAY. Click on the ITEMS tab at the bottom.
Is "Today timeout:" checked? What does it have in the drop down box?

This is a retarded WM6 feature that is enabled as soon as you have a password set for the device.
Remove the password, apps will stay open when the device is powered back on.
If not then you're SOL (just like me).

i don´t know why, but i always have my desktop when i turn on my pc
that´s sounds really bad or not?

Ummm, careful Kc SN ... I see you haven't posted much, but you should get into the habit of reading the entire thread before you start to type. Otherwise, the foot can easily wind up in the mouth, as is evidenced here.

Start Menu Dead

I've installed a few of the tweaks listed in the sticky thread and somewhere along the line, my onscreen start menu completely stopped responding. The start button is there, but it doesn't respond to presses. Since this is the TMOUS TP2, there is no hardware start button, so I'd like to get this resolved and could use some guidance.
Here's what I've added/tweaked so far (that I can recall):
Added HTC FM Radio
Added Microsoft My Phone
Added Microsoft .Net CF 3.5
Added Private StartingWindows7 (for Windows 7 startup animation)
Added Total Commander
Added sdkcerts
Added Zelcadence's Topaz Notification Manager
Added Advanced Configuration Tool
- Used AC to try to change hardware keyboard backlight timeout from 8 seconds to 2 minutes - didn't work. It says 2 minutes, but still blanks out after 8 seconds. I also heard that AC didn't always get along with TP2, so deleted it. Still no start menu functionality.
Regedits to add additional camera modes
Regedits to add autocompletion/autocorrection for SMS messaging
I still have plans to install the editable weather app database, but haven't taken that plunge yet until I resolve this issue.
Any advice on where in Registry I might have accidentally disabled this function would be highly appreciated. Otherwise, I'm looking at a hard reset which I'd really rather not do.
Side note: Is the "clear storage" setting the same thing as a hard reset?

I also have a similar problem. Even with a fresh start up, my start menu highlights when pressed, but will not open.

sounds like yall need to do warranty exchanges lol

I had the same problem and if you tap the start menu and drag your finger it should show. I never figured it out so I did a hard reset...Tj

This is the "reloaded" of SVMPowerMgr 1.0.
With this app. You can:

- soft reset the device
- turn off the device (HTC devs.).
- turn on/off wifi

- turn on/off bluetooth (make discoverable/invisible)
- switch phone bands Auto-2G-3G
You also can create 7 shortcuts to the program with parameters:
0 - turn off the screen of Your device
1 - put the device in suspended mode
2 - soft reset the device
3 - turn off the device(HTC devs.).
4 - turn on/off phone module
5 - turn on/off wifi

somethig like this
[simbols count]#"[path to program]SVM Power Mgr.exe" [parameter]?[path to icon file you want to use],-[icon index]
You can change the images of backrounds button separator and buttons, they will be located in "Images" folder after install. With one restriction: now the buttons are black, so if you change the back of main program, consider this ...

On/off bluetooth works well on Microsoft and Broadcom stacks, but discoverable/invisible mode for bluetooth is working just on Microsoft stacks, on broadcom is to be developped

Seems really useful. Gonna try it with powerbutton long press

Looks promising....will give this a whirl...thx

hello and thaks. i am looking for something like this.
happy new year

Looks useful... Gonna try it.
Thanks for sharing.
Best regards

It looks awesome. Will give it atry on my phone.,..

Looks great, thank you very much!

It works but there is no icon on each button on my HD. Using stock ROM

Works great on my Diamond. The only thing that does not work is the 3G and 2G switch, which I assume is because I am on CDMA. Would it be possible to get the button to switch from Ev (3)G to 1x? Good work.

Hi,
I'll try to find a way for this.
Best regards.

Error
For my device it can do almost all it promises including turning off the gsm but turning it on or switching between 2G/3G does nothing except gives me a dialog box named "Warning!" that containins the sentence
"The Phone status can not be switched."
Also turning the gsm and 3G on/off with HTC comm manager works just fine but as soon the gsm gets turned off by svmpm the HTC one also looses control over the gsm module (including 3G switch). I love your tool but how to get over this case?

I've got a feeling that this app has one of the best forum-replies per downloads ratio. I mean people just use it and don't complain. So great app when mapped to a comfortable hardkey. My issue was rare, so download it!

Hello and thanks for the program. I have instaled in my HD and mapped to one of the home bottom button. I have an spasnish stock ROM 1.56 and the final button doesn´t work and I would want to link it to another application like mylight. How can I make this?
Thanks for this applicatin

Missing icons
The app functions correctly for me, but the icons are missing (the text for each button are present). Anyway to bring the icons back?
Thanks
MEG
HTC HD2

Thanks a lot.
A very useful app for my GPS guided treeking.

works very well, thank you very much!

Dear Virtan, would you please give me an axample to create a shortcut please.
I think I don't know about [symbol count] and [parameter]?...
What should i write (i use resco explorer) when i want to create a shortcut, for suspend for example...
Thank You
EDIT :
It's okay...I found it..i just add number 1 after the shortcut.
For example :
"\Program Files\SVM Power Mgr\SVM Power Mgr.exe" 1
But Still don't know how to change the icon.
PS:
When i use this shortcut as a link to SPB Mobile Shell i found that everytime i wake up the device, the device starting with "something working" logo (circle that quartered and moving). This is not found when i use the SVM Power Mgr usual link (with menu). Any suggestion?
