Hi all,
I recently migrated from old Handspring Treo 180g (PalmOS smartphone)
to new MDA III and now, only one thing miss me, a little utility (called TreoTools), which was able control switch on/off of GSM module by a sheduling.
So i was able to shedule to turn off module everyday at midnight and turn on back 8:40am at workdays and 11:00am at weekends.
This greatly improvement battery life on that device.
PLEASE, does anybody know, if exists similar utility for MDA III ?
Thanks alot !
Hi,
I think this software will help you
Thank very much !
This utility works perfectly, but do only a radio off (as its names). Unfortunately this can't do a "tooggle", and when is radio already off, popups an error message.
OK, there is other utility, shipped with MDAIII, RestartRadio.exe to turn radio ON. Unfortunately, it needs to launch twice, when radio is off :evil: .
Code:
EDIT: Hey, i discovered, that RestartRadio.exe DO a radio togle !
Any idea, how with this two (now one) utilities do a daily shedule? Turn off at midnights, and mornigs turn ON? Some scheduler, that can launching .exe at specified time ?
Thx

use the pocketgear link you can download it there ..... anyway i uploaded the files, here sthe evaluation version of PhoneSnooze 2.0 and the PocketZenPhone 4.51
for newer version of pocketzenphone you need to buy it here
http://www.handango.com/PlatformPro...ctionId=0&catalog=30&txtSearch=pocketzenphone
or here
http://zendrui.free.fr/download.htm
..
I was were busy for last few days.
Want to thanx all, who tried to help me !!
I tryed these software utilities, and it seems, that PhoneSnooze work perfectly with MDAIII !!!! Thanx again.
P.S. i find yet another program for this task:
http://www.slipstreamsolutions.co.uk/products/mPhoneSchedule.htm
The difference between PhoneSnooze and PhoneShedule is, that PhoneShedule plays a sounds while phone is switched on/off (it is good to know, that phone going off or on) and can also switching power to BlueTooth !! But seem to be little unstabled. (maybe due WM2003SE)
could you post a link to restart radio.exe?
I tried an eval. version of mPhoneSchedule and although the interface is great and it looks quite a good program, I found the following serious problems.
-Does not schedule properly when phone power is off. Specifically I mean when the radio is on and the phone is sleeping, i.e nothing is on the screen it will not turn radio off. Seems a bit ridiculous. I am trying to save power, why would I want to require that the device be fully on to turn the radio off.
-Only will turn BT on/off with radio if you have Microsoft BT, not Broadcom.
I am still also searching for a tool that accomplishes this. Can anyone chime in on the review above. Does PocketZenPhone have the limitations above?
Aghhhhh,
I nearly turned my xda iis in to a bloody frisbe and launched it from
a high window today!
This thing is about as much use as a brick! Especially when you answer the phone and start shouting hello, hello - only to have to hang up and do a bloody soft reset of the phone.
This usuallly happens about 4 times a week to me, it can happen on outgoing calls too! The user at the other end reports they can only just hear me but I hear nothing.
I called 02 but of course they have never heard about this problem! Said I would have to take it in to a o2 shop for repair, repair! I'd like to see
them repair it!
After 3 repair attempts I am eligable for a new phone they said?
Anyway, has anybody found a fix for this. I'm running with all the 02 crap disabled, corporate user I think I chose when I reset it.
ROM 1.31.00 WWE
Radio 1.06.00
protocol 1337.38
ExtROM 1.31.139.WWE
When I got this phone I thought the wi-fi would be useful but the received signal level is a joke!
Please help!
thanks

XDA 2s Corp User Mode
I am running the same version of the software as you, in corp user mode. Have a few freeze up issues similar to what you describe, but not asw bad by the sound of it.. When you reset and chose corporate user mode, did you enter a 4 digit code..? If not, it probaly did not install corp user mode properly. Can you remember entering the code? Also, do you have any Today Plugins running?? Pocket Plus and Battery bar are particulary problematical. Keep you today screen plugins to a minimum I am running with just phoneAlarm and Alarm today form PocketMax, which appear pretty stable and really improve the alarm and notification functions a lot.
Aside form this ROM in Corp User Mode,You have 3 basic options using the resources on the wiki-xdadevelopers site
1. Upgrade the Radio and Bluetooth stack to later versions Rad 1.10 and BT 3900
2. Upgrade the ROM to 1.40
3. Cook a new extended ROM
All of the above require that you do a good bit of reading in the wiki site before starting and some bravery
As for me, I am going to continue with the O2 ROM in corp mode for now, o2 should have a ROM update out soon, which will hopefully be more stable
Hop this helps

i used to have the same problem when i was using the same version on my sx66. ever since i upgraded to 1.40.00 wwe (with radio 1.12.00) the problem never came back.
so i guess this porblem has something to do with the radio version ... try upgrading the radio.

Hi Chris,
thanks for reply.
Yes I'm pretty sure I entered 4 digit code, I've non of the silly 02 add on
stuff which I had before, and it does not lock up totally like it used to.
However I still get the no audio problem, which is baaaad.
Can I safely upgrade to 1.40 as you mention? Where can I find details of this procedure to read?
thanks
D
Upgrading To 1.40
Hi Dirky
Here is the link to wiki
wiki.xda-developers.com
upgrading this way is not as straight forward as a regular ROM upgrade though... you have to pick the components (ROM, Radio Stack, Bluetooth Stack etc),you need and the run some procs to get relevant device info on operator and country codes off your device... Read the 'Getting Started' section and 'blue angel for beginners' many have done it, but its not simple if you have not done it before... instructions are good and forum help is always there.. personally I have not got frustrated enough to attempt it, although I have come close a couple of times Start with the Radio upgrade alone. that may fix it for you.
Best of Luck
Regards
Chris
Hi there
Firstly i am a very heavy user of my PDA's but not very technical & apologies for long post, but cant find the answers anywhere else on this site.
Have been using HTC SIM free handsets for approx 4.5 Years now, and been using a HTC TyTN II for the last year, updated the ROM from WM6.0 to WM 6.1 then everything started going wrong so decided to spend the £500 to jump to the HTC Touch Pro 2 but am very frustrated and almost at the point of going back to the TyTN II or going to another brand of phone as none of the software that i had on my TyTN II works with the Touch Pro 2 WM 6.1, as follows:
1. TomTom Navigator 6 does not work but works on TyTN II WM 6.1?
2. TomTom Navigator 7 (Tried it & HTC Confirmed it will not work either)
3. MS Voice Command or any other voice command software does not work
4. Many other MUST HAVE programs i had on TyTN II WM6.1 also will not work now
5. Company supplied software wont work either,
6. It also wont work with my Landrover Freelander 2 PTI kit, so am forced to go back to a BT Headset
Surely PDA software OS 6.1 cant be that different from version 6.0 in my experience with the TyTN II as 6.1 just had small enhancements to 6.0?
I at least need some navigation & voice command software to work on the Touch Pro 2 as it just can not be operated safely whilst moving otherwise, and there is no point in having it in the first place if i can't get these two software types to work, which is a big problem for me.
Does anyone know what software does work, although i think it is the HTC TouchFlo Skin that is the problem with other programs i have tried this weekend, as it does not allow third part software to be displayed on the home screen easily, even google apps toolbar has probs, does this sound feasible?
Can anyone help me out with this or did i buy the wrong phone maybe a Touch Pro would have been better as closer to my TyTN II layout and functions?
Thanks in advance
Alex

TT 7 Does work with Rhodium, as does VC, everything has it's quirks of config. BT has always been a pain in the ass and requires different settings for different HFPs, Car Kits and A2DPs.
If you wan to kill Touch Flow, go into start/settings/personal/today and untick the TF.
There are plenty of threads and posts that will resolve most of your issues mate.
Search the entire forum, not just the Rhodium section and you'll get the answers you need.
Cheers,
Beasty
From your list of programs I can only confirm that Tomtom 7 DOES work, and it works very well. I'm using 7.915.9196 VGA
I haven't installed much software yet as Ive been a bit busy, but everything I've put on has worked pefectly. Admittedly I only installed stuff that worked on my Diamond which was also wm6.1

first of all sorry to hear you're having so much issues with the software you need to run on the phone. i have a kaiser/tytn 2 and software from that i have working on tp2. tomtom6 from tytn 2 does not work but tomtom7 defo does. MSVC does work as well but you need to get version compatible with tp2. look in the HTC BLACKSTONE forum as most of the apps from this device work with tp2. please remember that tp2 is WVGA res so that alone may effect the compatibility of some programs. the Blackstone forum is littered with programs that you may need that will work on tp2 and even better! can't really comment on your work software as dont know what it is! good luck with searching!
oh and i know it may be silly but make sure your phone is visible for BT purposes an use phone to pair with your landrover. mine works well with my parrot system with no issues!

What he said!
agreed that WVGA is your biggest problem. install "second today" to solve your problem with things not on the screen because of touch flo.
Hi Beasty
Thanks for tips, now i know what its codename is, it made it easier to find stuff on this excellent site after i saw your and other replies and have since loaded MS VC 1.6 UK Edition which seems to work ok although not tried it yet with my new HTC BT Headset.
In reply to the others thanks for the great info so far, i have tried loading TomTom 7 once again from the MicroSD card and it wont even load, its just says "this version of TomTom 7 is not compatible with this device" when i click "OK" it just terminates. I dont know what version it is till it loads?
A friend of mine this evening says that the closest phone on the TT7 compatability list seems to be the HTC Touch HD, and that CoPilot 7 actually lists Touch Pro2 as a compatible device, so i will have to try that i think and see if it actually does work, and will let you and the forum know
In terms of the work applications, i know they are based on the MS .NET Micro framework and so should work out of the box, but no they dont, but i think it is a screen resolution issue more than anything else.
The other app i need to run ideally is "Nimbuzz" Multi IM app, again for work.
On both of these work related apps i get an intermittent error message, saying "An error has occurred with xxxx appplication, send error report yes or no" when i choose Yes, it loops same message, when i clicked No it loops once then closes.
I removed the "Nimbuzz" application and soft reset, but still get the error message for it which is weird. So if anyone knows of a Multi IM (Inc Skype) which will run on Touch Pro 2 i look forward to knowing about it.
Work funded 50% of my Touch Pro2 purchase so need to get this all working as best i can
Thanks again for the tips, hints, instructions

Do you know if anyone has been able to get MSVC to work with the TP2 with a bluetooth headset?
I have tried both the US and European versions of MSVC 1.6 with my TP2. It only seems to work with the built-in speaker.

No problem sir,
We are all here to help each other, TF3D is a highly usefull interface, just takes a bit of getting used to, 2nd today and TF3D is a great combination especially when you configure one of the softkeys to switch between both.
Multi IM you could try BeeJive, not a lot of experience with this (seem to remember Elite team including it in their Roms) but there are plenty available on the net.

Hi All
Got MSVC working on TP2 but not with a BT headset so have just bought the Parrot Minikit Slim with voice dialling, although the voice dialling only works if you can sync the TP 2 with it just like my landrover, but it does not tell you this on the outside of the box.
Guess what? The TP2 is not listed on the Parrot Minikit compatibility list so may have spent/wasted another £70 today as cant sync the TP2 contacts with the Parrot system which is the same prob i was having with my landrover

Hey Alex...
I am sorry to hear that you are having so many problems and I have a fix-all solution for you.... I have a posting up in the marketplace, where I am looking to Trade a HTC Titan (Sprint Mogul) and 2 HTC Kaisers (AT&T Tilt's) for 1 GSM Touch Pro 2.... & I can confirm that TomTom 7 works on all 3 (I have the GPS unlocked on the Mogul).... Just think... 3 phones for your 1... What a great deal
Can someone post the link to the UK version of MSVC? I can't see it at the MS site.
I installed MSVC on my TP2 which led to a hard reset, so I want to be sure that I'm using the right version.
Thanks
"...i have tried loading TomTom 7 once again from the MicroSD card and it wont even load, its just says "this version of TomTom 7 is not compatible with this device" when i click "OK" it just terminates. I dont know what version it is till it loads?"
I've exactly this same problem. Does anybody know how to get around this and get it installed?
Wouldn't you know it. 24 hours of bashing my head against the desk trying to get this to work....I add a message to this board and 10 minutes later it works. Just used 7.915.9196 VGA as pointed out by stunno and remembered to look in program files after it was installed instead of repeatedly clicking on the original installer on the memory card.

So strange.
I'm using the parrot CK3100, and that's working fine, out of the box.
Just let the TP2 find the Parrot, 1234 as pin, and the TP2 recognizes it as a Hands-free set.
And it automatically started synchronizing.
My parrot 3200LS will not sync the directory either. It just disconnects the bluetooth device as soon as you tell it to sync. It works as a handfree ok, but its a pain to make calls without the directory.
I'm running igo8 on my Touch Pro 2. I'm running PNA version 8.3.2.96054. TTS works fine but after running some other programs, TTS no longer works and requires a soft reset for it to function again.
Anybody know how to keep TTS working?
Same problem here
I have exactly the same problem on my Touch Diamond 2.
I have tried many sys.txt configurations and various versions of the TTS files, but once TTS stops working, a soft reset is the ONLY way to get it back.
Confirmation
Me too, same issue anyone plss hlp
Solution (!!/??)

Since I have DISABLED the Opera push function in the internet tab and using the HTC CLEAN RAM function level 3 before start I will have never the error reserving virtual memory before starting IGO8 and TTS is always working.
Maybe that this can help anybody!
P.s. I dont know if the clean ram step is verry important, but disabling the opera push pages makes on my TP2 the difference!
