Hello all,
is there a way to use the gsensor to start/toggle programs ?
I think : shake device = second Home
shake again = TF3d
regards
That is a cool idea
There is an application I came across that is able to lock the screen by rotating the device in an anti/clockwise motion, so I am assuming you are able to use the Gsensor for function commands.
Here is the link to the app http://www.pocketpcfreeware.mobi/download-sensorlock.html
they have this on that new Toshiba phone. the TG01?? I think that's what it's called. but it's great that there's a way to do it on the TP2!!!

anyone know of a cab file for the quick dial contacts screen/page of the cube. it's all use the cube for, so i'd like to just have my other favorites (main ones being on home) mapped to a button. just press and it's there, without the cube animation etc.
cheers
or failing that, which files to extract from windows etc before copying to new 'cubeless' rom, if that's possible.
Standalone Quickdial.exe from Cude
Bump...
I have the same question (1.5 years later). Is there a standalone version of the QuickDial application from the HTC Cube (without TouchFlo and without the Cube)? I would like to call it from a shortcut on the today screen so that I can dial favorite contacts safely while driving. (A VGA version would be even better.)

BTW: I know that TF3D has a similar contacts dialer, but I have TF3D disabled because...
1) I can't customize the TF3D home screen to suite my needs
2) The device lock doesn't work in TF3D with device pin protection enabled, but the regular WM6.1 "Today Screen" device lock does work.
If someone knows how to bring-up the TF3D contacts screen with TF3D disabled, then that would work for me.
Hi,
does anyone know the location and name of the graphic used for the lock screen background. The percentage of iphone users is very high in the design office and I'm the only wm user.
I have a lovely anti apple graphic (umbunto supplied) and would like it as a screen saver but as i cant fond a way to do that the lock screen would be the next best thing.
Cheers.

Hi,
which lockscreen do you mean?
WM6.5 Lockscreen?
Or any other Programm like S2U2?
WM 6.5 uses the windows background screens as background can change them by overwriting:
\windows\stwater_480_800.jpg (for Portrait)
\windows\stwater_800_480.jpg (for Landscape)
(perhaps need to restart after)
S2U2 (which you shouldn't use as antiapple user ;-) )
-> can find in S2U2 Settings
greets
Using std UK rom.
The screen I refer to is the one that you use to unlock the device. Not the default background.
I cant upload pics from work but the screen is graduated light gray to white (at the bottom) with an unlock button middle right, and the text To unlock the device, tap "unlock"
Cheers

You mean the unlock screen.I'm trying to find the file too.I like to change it.Anyone knows where the image file is located in wm6.1?
Long time since I flashed away from 6.1, but I believe you can change the wallpaper (for 6.1, the unlock screen but not TF3D) by going to settings>Today and ticking the box next to 'Use this picture as the background' and browsing to your pic.

Thanks for the reply.Unfortunately that way you can change the today wallpaper but not the unlock screen.
Thats the screen
Any way to enable the GSensor to work with the albums? I came from the Diamond and I liked how I could change the orientation of the picture by rotating the phone. Or was that functionality just taken out of the newer Manilla?

well, if it's the album in manilla 2.5+ it will not rotate.,. but if you open the album application directly from start menu and look at the pics in there it should auto rotate..
Google an app called Gyrator, it will allow you to select which programs you want to autorotate and you can make Albums one
Hi, I have recently bought a HDC HD2 and am trying to port one of my own applications to it. I have problemes detecting when the device changes orientation (landscape/portrait). I have anchored the controls as suggested at MSDN and when rotating the emulator, the layout changes ok.
It looks to me like my program is not told when the screen is rotated. The resize event handler does not help. I am using MSDEV 2005. Does anybody knows what I am missing - has ideas on how to investigate further?
TIA
Hi,
Add the reference Microsoft.WindowsMobile.Status to your porject
then add this to your form load
Microsoft.WindowsMobile.Status.SystemState MyScreenOrientationMonitor = new Microsoft.WindowsMobile.Status.SystemState( Microsoft.WindowsMobile.Status.SystemProperty.DisplayRotation)
MyScreenOrientationMonitor.Changed+=new Microsoft.WindowsMobile.Status.ChangeEventHandler(MyScreenOrientationMonitor_Changed);
and the following event to be fired when the orientation changes.
void MyScreenOrientationMonitor_Changed(object sender, Microsoft.WindowsMobile.Status.ChangeEventArgs args)
{
//Do your stuff here
}
Thank you very much for your answer. However, it does not help me very much. It works very well in the emulator (like handling the resize event does), but nothing happens om the HDC.
I am wondering whether I have to do something on the HDC itself to facilitate the rorate-feature.
You can add the window to the registry to enable gsensor rotation.

After changing my original ROM to Topix 3.4/WM6.5 the thing I am really missing is the old screenlock which kept showing the regular screen (possibly with an application running) and just saying "Unlock" at the bottom right corner. The new one with slider is cool and it has the clock but I am often using apps that I want to be able watching while the HD is securely locked so that I can put in my pocket for the most of the time. One of examples is hiking with OziExplorer. Checking the map/position now requires unlocking every time I get the phone from the pocket, then locking it back. Annoying. Unfortunately Ozi's native display lock does not block the bottom buttons so is useless for HD.
Is there any "transparent" screenlock app available for WM6.5?
This is really easy:
Open some registry editor on your device and find this key:
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Shell\LockScreen\Enable and change value to 0.
And new WM 6.5 slide lockscreen is gone.
