Self Reboot? Food for thought - P3300, MDA Compact III ROM Development

Was just wondering - with all this memory leak issues cropping up - not that I have complaints 'bout it - as mine barely goes down below 20MB...but still...
I would like to have a feature/scheduler - which would reboot my Orbit - when :
a) It reaches a threshold - like 15MB memory or lesser !
b) maybe a time bound schedule - like 1am every morning !
Is there any software I can use to do this?

Nice thought but there is an issue.
What bout pin request? After reboot you have to enter pin for mobile to work. If you don't, you will have no mobile.
I do not think is clever to disable pin request either.

I've heard that one of the backup softwares (maybe SPB) can do a scheduled SR. You can set to 1am to do a SR every day.

You can do a scheduled backup with SPB Backup everyday at 1am.
After that SPB Backup automatical restarts your device...

I dont use a Pin - so thats not a problem....
Well my soft reset issue seems to be resolved...I can use psShutXP to set a Timer schedue and it reboots fine....
Now to find a solution whereby - when the memory goes below a certain threshold - it reboots ! that would be a killer !
Will liv with the self reboot - once a day for now...

Yesterday i tried also with PsShutXP, but does it save the settings after reset ?
As far as i could see, you have to enter the schedule evertime again....?

What the f***
I just tested and the setting went off after reset ! Back to square one !

Well my problem resolved...the scheduler is in XDA-Dev site itself !
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=294575
This utility RunEveryDay.exe can execute any exe file based on schedules defined...quite appropriate for my case...
I set up a couple of schedules and they executed all in order one by one...the softreset you will need a different exe which does not ask for a prompt...and is attached...

Hey dev...looks nice...i was also searching yesterday, but the one i've found did not work....thanks for sharing the link!

I have been using SKSchema, a commercial app, to soft reset my artemis at 6.00am every morning. It is a really cool app but a bit hardcore for my ability. You can make it enter your pin or watch for any event, I think even a memory threshold, but you have to use scripts, which I am finding a bit hard, you guys would not. It can even emulate screen taps or keyboard entries to a schedule. I sound like a crap salesman, But it would be good for my karma if I persuaded someone to buy it!

Few crossbow issues

After upgrading my exec to latest PdaViet rom I've noticed few annoying things.I looked for the solution but couldn't find any.
1)How to permanently turn off word completion suggestions?Every time I turn it off,after a soft reset is on again.
2)Green and red button on the side don't work properly.For example I can answer the phone call but can't hang up using them.
3)Has anyone found any solution to the decreasing memory?
I'm back to the universal forum after a year of using a Wizard so please forgive me if any of these issues have been addressed before.I've spent last two days reading the forum and couldn't find the answers.

Have you tried disabling the world suggestion and sof reset?
Also I know that it starts with 28MB but try to check it after one day of using without a soft reset...

I have voice command on my startup folder and I don't have the memory leak. Actually, I have a total of 8 apps already in there.
small menu (modified to launch from windows folder)
handy menu (modified to launch from windows folder)
spb services
voice cmd
poutlook
BTIcon
Start Menu Cleaner
X-CPU Scalar
I also have a total of 6 today plug-ins:
Phone Alarm Lite
SBSH Clock
Pocket Weather
iLauncher
Windows Media Plug-in
Calendar
The last time I performed a soft reset was yesterday after installing some apps and making a backup. I'd say I used my phone for 2 hours, listened to music for 1 hour, watched a short movie, browsed the net for 30 minutes, updated Eggress, and used Pocket X PDF. Tonight, I left active sync connected via BT so pocket weather will update every 3 hours. Always after a soft reset my total memory is 24.7MB, with all the activities I mentioned from above, my total memory was down to 19MB. I used MemMaid to Restore RAM and I recovered only 200kb. I then used Hibernate, and I got more than 1.5MB. So right now the total memory for the whole day of use is 21.1 MB.
I agree that some apps are memory hungry, but I always get a huge chunk back after Hibernate was activated. I always get back up to the upper 20 MB.

HELP!!! TYTN put to sleep and wont wake up unless reset

Hi, i have a softbank verision of the tytn....running faria version of wm6....now when i switch it off to sleep.....i cant switch it back up to wake the phone up....i have to poke the reset button to start again.....anyone know the reason to this.....this also happen to my wizard before.....
Hi
I've had exactly same prob running Black Shadow
I believe mine was caused through adding some themes onto device that it didnt like - once removed all was well. Have you added any ?
Try removing them all then adding them gradually - do the same if running any 3rd party apps.
regards
Jon
Experienced exactly the same issue with the latest Shadow and radios both 1.40 and 1.43. Hang-ups were happening only after any media/audio playing application was ran before (tested with Pocket Player and WMP), in 10 out of 10 cases Hermes wasn't coming back from sleep. The culprit was (tadah) Bluetooth Explorer, after getting rid of the bugger I haven't experienced any freezes or hung-ups at all and my device is rock solid. Just the heads up.

i wonder if its any of my app that is also causing the problem....
I think is one problem with this name STD (sleep to death). Read about this on this http://forum.xda-developers.com/archive/index.php/t-256494.html and I post the file. Read also this:
- Backlight light can't turn on after sleep mode
- STD
About DisablesyncSchedule:In WM5/6, activesync connects automatically time to time (even if device is turned off), and would cause STD, specially with SD Card inserted.
DisablesyncSchedule.cpf Install procedure:
Copy DisablesyncSchedule.cpf to your device
Run DisablesyncSchedule.cpf (using File Explorer on your PPC). It will show:
"Device Settings Changed".
Then Soft-Reset and verify if the STD is gone...
I hope help you

dont think it work....cuz it just die out again
It will show:

Click OK on the message (to go out... and another OK on the X button) then Soft-Reset.
I have in the past this problem with WM5 (Eten M600 device) and with HTC WM5 but with this method no more STDs on this devices.
Look if your battery is under 20%. With the ROM you flash I have an STD also and I see my battery is low when I do a Soft-Reset. So... when charged up >20% never more an STD.
Regards
*** maybe you need try a CUSTEL ROM (cingular or standard version) or Schaps ROM no problems for me with this two. Now I stay on Schaps 3.30b WWE but I wait for the upgrades Schap's and Custel (maybe to this sunday). I try also Faria ROM but I have problems (I dont remember) but I remove on the day after... like Shadow (very nice the aspect but for me no video-call and I dont like the combination sms/mms so... I reflash with Schap's and I wait to compare the new upgrades promised for this week-end).

Try shutting down the system by hilding the power button. This should allow the system to save all changes to registry and free up resources. If you hard reset, it's like resetting your PC, you loose all unsaved data. You should try it once!

If you really need to soft reset, then: 1. Shut Down; 2. Soft Reset.

Yes, you are correct!!!
I just tried the same. I guess I never noticed this before, since I always Soft Reset by software. However, if you Soft Reset with stylus, the device lock password is not lost. Wierd!!!
Sorry about what I said before. I stand corrected.
At least part of the problem was solved by the replaced XIP part...
Hello.
That's true. This is a bad thing. I've tried with SMS and Email, and I've lost both. I haven't had any problem with email counts, passwords, ...
FInixNOver, just a question. Have you got the same problem using Soft-Reset by program ?
Thanks
Ok. I've done a test. And that's true if you do a soft-reset by hardware just after you receive an email, sms or mms. But, time after (I don't know when) all data are saved. I think we just have to advertise this fact to the users. We can't do anything else.

By soft reset you mean the power button or any aplication?
If the mobile hangs, or stops responding will the power button work? The application for shure will not
some rom has still the lost of settings issue
Some rom like the last pdaviet rom, has still the issue of loosing Mail password, connection settings and luetooth paired devices informations on reset.
You are right, there is less and less rom which has this bug, but there or some.
Unfoirtunately for me, the rare ones which have this pb, are the rare ones where the A2DP is working fine and is not too much solwing down the phone.

Soft Reset can be done in 2 ways: with the stylus or by software.
The power button is used to shutdown the device.
If the device stops responding or hangs, you may not be able to shut it down or reset it by software.

Very good news. Happy to know that some knowledgeable guy will look for A2DP.
I don't have technical knowledge in this domain but had done a lot of test.
There is 3 categories of rom:
1- There is some rom which do not even has the A2DP sound with good quality. Sometimes they can be fixed by reducing the max bitpool to 30and installing sleuth A2DP fix. Some times I didn't succeed to fixe the sound A2DP quality.Sound is very skipping. For example the Akeo rom is in this category.
2- Some of them have good quality but when A2DP and music is runinng, you can't use anything else. For example the netdrg or your rom are in this category. sound is very good but impossible to use music thru A2DP and at same time, use tomtom.
3- Rom where sound is not skipping or at least skipping very rarely and the cpu is still available for doing something else in the same time. The only rom in this case are pdaviet roms and the WM6 Schaps rom.
some example of mesure of time (in second) to lunch tomtom when A2DP is runing:
Category 2:
WM6.1_netDrg_V3.10 168

Write a Mortscript to do it.

I think Don'tForget will do what you are wanting.
You can get it from http://dashapps.googlepages.com

Bupahs, that's so nice of you. Can you set it to from 9PM to 8AM? It's just a text script, right? So I can modify it later? Thanks!

There's a pair of programs i use(d). Both by the same company. One will schedule automated events (alarms, shut-off, etc) and the other will record macros.
Essentially you record a macro (choose start at home screen) and work your way into comm manager as if you normally would, and this device will remmeber what you did.
Next you would set an autorun in the second program.
A few things i have noticed..
Doesn't function perfectly when starting in LOCK mode, so you have to fake an unlock by pressing the unlock key and Z, then just press the HANGUP button to make sure it is on the home screen
You have to leave time considering for LAG with your phone, i would give it a good couple of seconds more than it actually takes for each step to make sure it doesnt mess anything up....realize that it isnt remembering your destination, just your keypresses and pauses...
Program has a VERY AKWARD and barely legible font, so trust it!
The auto-run program comes packed with a bunch of automatically programmed alarms and events, so delete them when you install
The names of these programs are:
MacroRecorder and AutoFlight ...both are by CyberHorse i believe

Personally I like a good simple and small foot print Mortscript. Why install two programs to do what a 5k script will do?

Off topic but does anyone know a free app that let you schedule when the phone turns on/off?
I think it's almost impossible since the phone isn't running anything when it's off.

Sleepwell is great, however, I guess I'm missing something....
I can define the hour to turn on airplane mode... how about turn OFF airplane mode? How this software knows when I want my phone back? I couldn't find any settings to it, or am I missing something
I think I got the picture... you define one setting to turn off, and then define another setting to turn on. Is it? Am I right?
Regards.

There are three options in the app: Flight mode on, Flight mode off and Turn the phone off.

Oh man, I must hang my head in shame on this one, I completely forgot about it
I will post one tomorrow (sunday 8) sorry about that guys.
Ok, I have a couple scripts ready to go.. almost, I need to know for which version of WM to make them, just so there are not errors or unexpected issues.

[Q] Alarm clock broken?

I seem to be having a problem with my Alarm Clock for some reason and can't figure out what is happening.
Last week I had to get up @ 7:25AM so I tapped the clock on the home screen, set one alarm to 7:25 and one to 7:30 so I would not oversleep. Worked flawlessly all week so no worries there. This week, I don't really need to get up since I'm off from work, so I went to the home screen, tapped the clock and not only slid both sliders to "Off" for the alarms, I also made all alarm-clocks show 0:00.
Surprise surprise; for 7 days straight, my phone is waking me @ 7:25AM and then again @ 7:30AM.
Looked up the registry setting HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Clock and check the 3 registry-keys for all 3 alarms. All seem to be set to NOT wake me at all.
Getting quite tired of this; anyone has any idea to how to solve?
What ROM?
Have you tried rebooting after you made the change?
WinMo is quite dumb at times.
Forgot to mention indeed but using the Energy-ROM.
Rebooted my phone both after changing the alarm-time and after changing/checking the registry. Both failed coz I woke up 7:25AM again today...

Sorry, I haven't used WinMo in ages. Random weird issues like this drove me batty. Android has gotten to the point where (for me) I can use it daily. Good luck.
You may just need to clear your notification queue. This has been a long running bug in WM since PPC 2003 was out. The simplest way by far is to use SK Tools. If you are a WM user who doesn't own this, then something is wrong with you!
The other, much longer, option is detailed by JVH3 in THIS POST.

I've never actually heard of SK Tools. Learn something new every day...
I still like my solution better tho .

Ditch WM .
Rebooting was obviously a bust...
Late update but it seems to have solved itself...
Well, not completely without a hitch; I started with cleaning out the registry. Then I disabled all push-updates to the phone (weather, mail, gps mapping and so on). Set all alarm-clocks to 0:00 and rebooted the device a few times. Next morning, the alarm went off again so I rebooted it again.
And ever since, not had this problem again... And yes, people saying to ditch WM, I might but in a month time I can get a new/free phone from my provider but unsure if I will go for Android or WM7.5.

I posted the known solutions a few posts back. SKTools is the simpler one of the two. If you can't get your hands on a copy of it, there was an alternative in that same post. All you have to do is clear your notification queue.
