Program That Changes Wallpaper Automatically! - Touch HD Themes and Apps

Hi XDA Community,
Has anyone heard of a program that can change the wallpaper automatically on our windows mobile devices? For example you could set the time interval for the wallpaper to change every 15 minutes,hr, day. The program would randomly generate a wallpaper for these time intervals. Looking for something similar to webshots but for PPC.
All the best to everyone!
UPDATE: I did some searching on the web. Go to this link for more information on how to change wallpaper automatically on your Blackstone. It uses Mort Script and limitation is 23 images. No ability to change time intervals.

UPDATE #2: Thank you to bugsykoosh for bring to our attention a program developed by kevinv2u. It was originally made for the diamond, but I decided to post here because it is such a delightful application which is way better than the MortScript version. Gives interval options and unlimited pictures. It does work on the HTC Touch HD!

this doesn't require mortscript so it may be easier and I presume it''ll work on the HD without a problem: http://www.fuzemobility.com/?p=1548

Video CAll for XDA Live in future?

Will there be a chance that we will be getting video call for upcoming version of XDA Live?
Are there difficulty of integrating the function into the ROM?
the XDA Live V0.10 is great and really look forward for V0.20...0.30....
Thank you all for your efforts
I have NO DOUBT that video call will be integrated.....but for now (we are only just about to see version 0.2 remember ) the only way to get video calling on XDA-Live is by reading the thread and installing the appropriate cabs. I did install it and it worked ok but the skin didnt match the rest of XDA-Live so i removed it.
Patience sir the video call option will be available when the time is right.
will it be easy updating to the newer versions of xda live or i need to do a hard reset and reinstallation of all my apps? thanks

Not sure what you mean, but when you run the installer for the new version it will be exactly like a hard reset......the BEST thing you can ever do is get an activesync account with someone like Mail2Web so all your emails,contacts,tasks and calendar appointments are literally saved ALL THE TIME, then make sure all the files you want to keep are either backed up on your SD card or on the pc. when you hard reset its literally then a case of restoring your GPRS/MMS/activesync settings, reinstalling your programs and restoring your files.
Ive managed a hard-reset and restore in the space of ten minutes.
EDIT:: you dont NEED to have the device syncing over GPRS, it will sync with the online account through activesync on your pc if you wish. but syncing over gprs gives you the added bonus of push email
Neither Video calling nor PTT will be integrated into the ROM, reason being that these apps only have regional popularity (Video not available in N. America, PTT not available in Europe)... No need to clutter the base ROM and reduce the size of program area for apps that half of us would never use.
The solution is this: These two apps will be part of the add-on "toolkit" for XDA Live.

I have applied the patch which makes the video function to work. Was just wondering if we will actually placed the WM6 version in XDA Live!
Anyway, the ROM is great, itz fast and very steady. My softbank has not hanged once since I upgraded.
Cheers!
hi guys,
i got video call working with one a couple of the cabs available in the 1.35 ext rom (as posted above) then skinned the dialer with the 3G iphone dialpad.
Works a treat.
Also, the 3g/U/E/G icons are fixed as well with the 1.35ext rom cabs as above.

Ideas for B&B version 4.2

I know that 4.1 is only just out & I think it's brilliant. I'm spending every evening checking new posts and playing with my phone like never before. So, before the 4.1 thread becomes the next thread with 1200 posts, I thought I'd start a new thread for ideas for 4.2
Tom - before I found the magic that is B&B I was using Wisbar Advance desktop and an application called innesoft address book which had a great feature that when someone called you, their photo was displayed full screen with their name (see thumbnails) rather than just the standard windows window.
Any chance you could devlelop something similar for 4.2 !!!
Cheers

Here is something that may hold you over, I am still trying to figure out how to use the caller id without the actual slide to unlock, bit here is something to tide you over, jsut a thought
Have a pretty much full screen keyboard for texting in landscape mode? The text appears at the top?
Is there a way we can assign a button to lock the phone rather than go thruogh the menu?
Cheers
Anybody knows if it is legal to include trial versions of apps in cooked rom?
Was thinking rom with included sktools, english dictionary of some kind, IM+, resco explorer, spb gprs monitor included on rom would save time and space. Apps included would be trial versions and ppl haveing bought them could just enter activation keys/serials, others could buy app if thy liked it.

This would be a waste of time and energy for most, these Roms are made to be efficient, the least amount of space used so that you as an individual can place your desired programs, once a rom is built there is no removing/uninstalling of any apps, hence the reason to not put trial versions into a rom, I use several of the above mentioned, but to "Bloat" a rom with them would be ineffecient. Best thing to do is install on your sd card, keep all your initial install cabs in one folder and use that as your rebuild folder. Cheers.

Is it not worth remembering that everyone has a different list of killer apps they MUST have on their device?
If Tom & Meschle etc added every app - the rom would only just fit on a 40gb hard disk!!!
To my mind - the idea is that the cooked roms are a basis onto which you install your own apps to make your own device work?
Constanlty asking for new apps to be added to a rom just complicates the issue. Or am I wrong?
something so i can remotly use my desktop via PPC
then im complete
automated network setup like in the O2 WM6 Premium 1.0 WWE rom
Extended timers & alarms application
I'd like to avoid installing SpbTime on each version
Great job!
OK, i agree, rom should be as slim as possible, but why the hell there is cube, psshutXP, PHM regedit/traylaunch, and office mobile on it then?
Could make an ultra lite wersion. (=
P.S. Dont get me wrong, i think 4.1 is great and it is a lot faster than O2. Just throwing around ideas about how to make it better.
with my original post, I was not really asking for a copy of the app, just would like a much bigger photo to pop up with caller id and liked the look of the inesoft one.
Tom - what do you think?
Just trying to make the ROM easier to use, more efficient.
B&B 4.1 is far better than original ROM from this point of view
TouchFlo for example helps to have everything we need with a single finger move..
Phone app is a lot more usable also.
Perhaps also the possibility to customize HTC Home by default, with more options (number of apps in the launcher, ..)
i don't think that is constructive to add as much apps, i can imagine, when it's released, everbody is shouting "this is not good" and "why did you use this app and not the other one"...and so one. I like it clear, not too much apps...but that's my opinion.
If i want it with all apps included then i start (to learn ) cooking my own ROM... IMHO i am very satisfied with the work that Tom is doing for us all. And 4.1 is just released. Enjoy it and let Tom make a break. He is hard working all the time!
Plugins for new version
Alarms extension (SpbTime style)
USB PenDrive emulator (WMstorage style)
Phone call recording (Audio Recorder style)
Thanks for B&B! Great job!
i have a great idea
Why dont we support Tom and all off his hard work and all the other wizards here, and stop complaining or asking for more.

Improving File access
What I would like to see is the File Dialog Changer, I don't know who has heard of it but it is very good! Usually when you want to save files or open them in any application you get access to you My Documents folder. Only some smart apps like TCPMP and others have the option to access your entire pda.
File Dialog Changer changes the way you access your files in opening and saving them for every application, it's just 50 KB and you can activate / deactivate it in System Settings.

And about your wish I can only say that there is already Remote Desktop for WM6, I think I've downloaded it in the Wizard forum. Or use PocketVNC, that is the pda version for VNC. I am successfully using that with TightVNC on my computer. I just have to be in range of my WLAN and can turn on my computer by sending a wake on lan signal (not with vnc) and then access my computer through pocketvnc or access the files on my computer.

I think he had a point though. In the whole thread there is not one message of Tom Codon himself. Did you ask what he thinks? Maybe he has a few ideas of his own? After all, it will be his ROM...
Who says it will be B&B v4.2? Why not 4.3 or 5.0? If there will be another version let him take care of the numbers.

[Updated: Oct 16th,08] NRG MiniWeather 1.2 !

Hello everyone. I've been working on this project today and I'd like to share my work. This is the mini version of NRG ChomeWeather 3.1... MiniWeather 1.0.
It's only got ONE layout and that's a 5 day layout as seen in the screenshots below. It's portrait device compatible so feel to install on Tornado's and such. This version also hopefully corrects the problem people have been experiencing with the phone locking up while the keyboard was locked and the weather app was updated.
This version also has a solid autoupdate routine that hasn't failed me once in the last 3 days.
All in all, I believe this is a rock solid version and I've tried to anticipate any bugs that may occur. Think of this as a light version of NRG Weather 3.1, as it's only 2 megs in size.
However, I will stop development of the old 3.1 version and just improve this. I hope you like this... and please report any issues. Thank you.
A few words for the newbs... After you install and reboot, please set your location code in the Options. Then update.
In order for the detailed forecast panels to show updated information, the phone HAS to be rebooted. There's no way around this... YET. I'm currently
working on moving from the CTestUIPanel to another panel, but not ready to do so... yet.
Features:
- Autoupdate according to Yahoo servers' time + 10 minutes + 1-5 random minutes (so we don't all hit the server at the same exact times)
- Update in 15 minutes when no connection is found.
- First forecast day info comes from Yahoo... the rest from weather.com
- Verbose status information as the script is running.
- Minimal set of icons to save space.
- Detailed Forecast panels can be turned off in "Advanced Options"
- Application will not automatically refresh the screen while the phone's keypad is locked.
- Built-in leftover notifications removal tool, in case you want to uninstall. See "advanced options".
October 18th - 1.2 Release
- Twice as fast current forecast download.
- Only one layout supported.
- Revised layout and removed the monitor, for now.
- Blue / black backgrounds behind the temp and hi low indicators, actually follow the official sunrise/sunset of the location selected.
It updates in 15 seconds or less now...
etc...

Looking goooood!
Great job Org (sorry, NRG). Works great. Really simple to use (as it should be) and awesome looks. The only thing I found is that for some reason it doesn't show low values on cTestUI. It's been happening since a couple of versions ago on my device (although I've uninstalled before installing this new one). Here's a SS of what I'm talking about. I think maybe it's some residual reg values or misplaced pics.
Anyway, it's a great app. Thanks for all the hard work
Hi NRG/Org.....
As usual your work is wonderful, this version works like a charm and seems that my phone has about 1 Mb more of memory free, thanks for your amazing work, waiting for your new version without the testui panel......

Well I figured out what the problem was. The script wasn't equipped to handle single digit temperatures Now it is and the second post was updated with a new cab. You can just use the attached "patch" cab if you've already installed the application. That way you don't have to reinstall everything. Thanks for the heads up on this.

I made them a .cab file for their app already. Only thing i couldnt seem to do ( and i don't know why) was integrate mortscript into the .cab. I followed your .cab structure for mortscript.exe and it never worked. Hopefully showaco will post my .cab shortly and if you want to you can take a look at see if you can integrate mortscript into somehow.
It's easy really. Mortscript only needs two references in the classes section of the registry to tell windows how to open "mscr" files and of course the mortscript.exe file... copied somewhere on the device. I chose \windows for my cab files

see thats weird. i tried that and it didnt seem to work. i added the mortsript reg entries in the HKCR section and everytime in stalled the app and tried to run his weather options.mscr file it said that cannot find file or one of its components.... once i installed the .cab withouth mortscript and installed the mortscript.cab file posted on his thread it worked fine.... weird.
Simply.....Amazing.
anyway to let it auto-disconnect the GPRS after update?
I could make it an option...
what is the 21XX number of the normal clock png icon? i don't have it anymore after doing a series of uninstalls and reinstalls etc.
Hey DUDE!
I am seconding what Showaco said. I really like the way this looks. I am glad you started using the clock panel too. Maybe we can collaborate on some ideas in the future. I sent you a pm last night, so if you didn't check it yet, check it. I hope all is well in Orgville and have a great day, bud.

How to run code when WM in sleep (suspend) mode?

Hi!
I'm working on a wallpaper changer program what's change the today's and/or the Sense's wallpaper in a specified time (10-720 mins). But when the device goes to sleep (suspend) mode, the program goes to sleep as well and does not change the background. How can I tell the WM to wake up in the specified time and let the program to change the wallpaper and then goes to sleep again?
I googled a lot, but can't found a proper solution. I found unattended mode, and many other stuffs, but those are not good for me. I need a notification-like event what happens like alarm and I can detect it in the program, change the wallpaper and let the WM sleep again.
I'm writing the app in VB (VS2008) with NETCF 3.5, but I can understand C# codes too and I can convert it to my own use.
Thanx for help, if I get any!

Did you try runappattime, i am using these function in my apps to wake up the device and run the app so there is no need to keep the application running in the background.
If you want i can share my custom c# dll which i use to do all my scheduling thing.

Autorotate hd mini!!!!

Hi,
I want to point out, this small (cab) found a rom for HD2 Laurentius26 (Thanks) link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1044596, running on a HD MINI. It allows automatic rotation (landscape). I did tests on the main features of HD MINI, from start menu seems to work well. Obviously does not work perfect on home screen and dialer. is useful to me for example, in the Remove Programs screen.....
As Laurentius26 realized, would be nice to create for HD MINI, a dialer (phone keypad) to insert into a rom cooked .... combined with the cab autorotate.
hi, does it work in the sense? i mean for example in the music tab..does it rotate into landscape same as on hd2?
hi, I tried it now because I did not know if it worked, because I do not use Music tab.
It 'clear that they can not run those programs, which have no skin in the landscape. The CAB autorotate changes the (log system) on the instructions MANILA. I think! but inside 56KB adds nothing !!!!!
In fact, I think, Laurentius26 on ROM FOR HD2 added skins to PHONE DIALER to operate in landscape.
As I have said does not work with all programs in rom: dialer (phone keypad), etc. HOME SCREEN. . MUSIC TAB LANDASCAPE in fact it does not work with BSB Tweaks !!!!!
Do not be hard for something that is given for FREE!
First of all there are already a few threads which specifically discuss about this matter with different apps (Probably around 3).
As mentioned above, the problem does not lies on the AutoRotate app but Manilla itself so unless someone is willing to create HVGA landscape Manilla skin there wont be any landscape Manilla view for our HD Mini.
Considering the low activity of HVGA skin and app development, the chance is slim ....
In fact it is so Ahinigami. I cooked a Rom for hd mini. I'm looking at this work, an application that allows autorotate COMPLETE, to be included in ROM.
(As I said above) I opened this thread with the hope, too, that someone could make a skin for HD MINI laurentis26 as it did, at least for the telephone keypad.
But here it seems only .......... : download and install!
Update
And in fact sometimes life rewards bold .......
I was reminded that long ago I published a thread (TUTORIAL MOBILE MAGIC).
From that folder (attached to the thread) I managed to build a (cab package) and fully functional. I think I continue on this road ....
telephone keypad, is it the usual dialer we're using "cprog"?
If yes, it does support landscape mode ....
I just downloaded the dialer to pack kitchens.
then placed on ROM to HD2. but I just did download.
in the little free time I'm looking for a good rom to join HD mini. Now I'm considering O2_uk
anyway .... and now that I think I can do now a (cab package), if I can send you a private pm
UPDATE:
I understood the potential of HD MINI. I spent a little time,
and I made a special cab for PHOTON. is the dialer pad (telephone keypad) that I said above.
From the first test seems to work fine (I used MOBILE MAGIC) is enclosed SCREENSHOT 2/ 3 / 4. Thanks to Ahinigami to the stimulus.
removed in error
Hi.
Thanks for Auto-rotate
If you create a cab , please upload it ...
If you're planning to cook AutoRotate app into your rom, I suggest using simpler and smaller app specifically just for this purpose.
I've tried the cab you attached in the first post and it was quite buggy (Sense tab is not functioning properly such as alignment) and without any blacklist/whitelist feature.
On the other hand Mobile Magic (Beta) is a rich feature app but comes with larger footprint.
If you've the time, pls do try out ChangeScreen. It has a simple and easy to use interface and smaller footprint.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Btw, if you're planning to include AutoRotate app into your Rom, do you plan to allow just a few selected app such as Shell32 (Start Menu), dialer, and Sense (When possible)?
Some programs are not rotate friendly and will stop working properly once rotated so you should take this into account too.
Hi Ahinigami ,
ChangeScreen I tested (I did not know) but absolutely bad (on my rom). It should immediately crash and lock system. I could not even evaluate the memory usage when this program is resident in memory.
However, I'm working on another program, and I am considering just the memory used, depending on the version used the same program. In fact, the features that I want to achieve are: the fluidity of the graphics, speed, low memory but also the workers!
For the delay on the dialer cab I apologize! Patience!
But I do not eat with it! I do this for a hobby ...... but I also have my job!
For tonight than upload a new thread in the dialer pad and the cab to rotate + tutorial. Afternoon do the last test and upload!!!
I see, take your time .... Having a new developer for HD Mini is a good news itself for me.
There is nothing I can do for you but I could at least help you to try out your new app and rom when released.
Ahinigami Thanks!
is a pleasure for me to be of help! Experience together!
About go to the link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1064807
I hope good news .... for you ..... for you all.
Hola, great work you´re doing here
I´ve been comparing the Mini and the HD2 for a while now, and even though I´ve also achieved to rotate (force rotation) Manila/Sense, it´s not ported to landscape yet (7c60907d_manila, 22e41977_manila, 14394200_manila) and has never been. The fact is that we should have to decompile and mode some of the manila core files for it, assigning in those files the corresponding positions for the elements...
Now, if all you want to do is to be able to rotate everything else, that´s easier since a few reg entries will do that for quite some apps (see L26 rotation cab) OR by using a very simple and powerfull app like xHook or xtask. I use it on both my Mini and HD2 (yep, with Laurentius beta ROMs) and I can rotate "on demand" everything (except sense) by simply assigning the winflag softkey to the rotation of 270 degrees within xtask
Hi BHS_ Interceptor,
Thank you very much.
You gave some very interesting news!
I think it is the right way, ......
In fact that's what I'm trying to implement. From your suggestions, I will try to work .... because I want to get the final result that you wrote above. Well.

Hola Oregon, glad my post was useful. If there is anything else I can do, just let me know.
Btw, if you simply use the reg keys and also enable autorotate, the behaviour on the Mini will not suffer except on Sense. You would have to add a lot of exe´s to the white list and after installing new apps, some of this would have/need to be added as weel. Using xTask/xHook, you don´t have to worry about white list nor anything else, even about registry, since it rotates on demand what ever and when ever you press the set Key. You can also assign another key for it, but I like the win flag since we already have another one right below the softkey. If you replace the winfla icon with a "rotate" icon" then all looks perfect as well
Btw, on my HD2 (I´m also a member in Laurentius Platinum Beta team) I have assigned the button through the "build in" taskmanager Leo is using for the ROM...
