[REQ] Time-out countdown - Windows Mobile Software Development

I've tried a couple diffrent countdown timers, but I think somthing alot more basic could be made...
I just need one timer, than can save the time. Also sound an alarm.
The use would be for when my daughter is bad I can set it, 2yr olds generaly get 2 minutes. I want to open it a hit one button that starts the countdown right away....
BTW I have an HTC Diamond

I can give this a go if your still looking.
Am I correct in assuming that you are looking for something that when launched has one (or two) buttons that will start a predetermined count down (2 minutes by default) and sound an alarm when complete?
Is source what your looking for or just a cab?

Thank you for your reply! I don't know if this is somthing that'll intrest alot of people, but I appreciate your intrest.
I don't know how to program, I would like a cab.
that sounds like the Idea, all it really needs is 1 button, preset to 2 minuets (but could be changed), and sounds an alarm when done.

K, I'll whip something up by the end of the weekend

You can use SmartToolKit then by pressing <- you will have a gadget for volume & profile and any user programs you want to assign, also has a XP like start menu that again is customizable, i know this isn't exactly what you asked but is a way to control volume without jogger.
Thanks for your response but i have tried smrt tool kit andi, not a big fan of it. maybeif someone couls point me to a thread or tutoria to write something to do this or if its just a simple redg edit

Simple solution, use Mortscript to write a volume control application and assign it to a hot key. I can whip you up one once my schedule clears up.. but probably not until this weekend.
thanks a milion man so what kind of coding would it be?

Mortscripts are really simple, it uses a batch script language.. details and examples can be found on Mortscript and I believe we have an extensive script archive here on XDA
cool thanks any idea when ull have time to do it?
+1 that would be very cool! I keep hearing from the girlfriend what a POS the Joggr is (wasnt a big problem for me with bluetooth). I would switch the joggr to JUST scrolling duty and call it a day!
change the joogr settings to scrool it works with me i can change the volume during a call and while playing music etc
yes, we know...the problem is that it is easily bumped while talking, and hard to navigate.

I wrote one up quick this evening. This is a ultra simple script that will allow you to set the volume to max, mute the volume or select a volume level ( 0 to 255, 255 being max volume) let me know how it works for you and if you like this weekend I can refine it so it looks a bit nicer.
I tested it out on my Dash and once assigned to a hot key (speed dial) it can be called whenever you need it. You will need Mortscript installed of course so I added the latest mortscript cab to this archive. Install it, Mortscript, then copy over the two files Volume Utility.exe and .mscr to your device and run the mscr file both the exe and mscr file must remain together to work properly.

This was just a quicky I can add step up and down controls (low, midrange high and loudest) for ease of use, and make it a bit more user friendly (like allow the center button on the Dash to act as the ok button) I have been wanting to use Morts Butons so this might be a good time to try them out (makes the interface more adaptable and nicer looking). Since it works for you I will get a refined version to you this weekend.
Learning the script language is pretty simple, Google Mortscript and download the manual is the best way to learn it, that and looking at example scripts. I use Mortscript for everything on my Dash.. I have it nearly automatic anymore. It turns on in the morning, downloads my feeds, checks and downloads the weather and checks my google calendar then rings the alarm if I need to get up and go to work, if its the weekend it turns back off after all the updates are done and then turns on a couple hours later so its ready to go for me. I use scripts for everything (yeah I am lazy lol)
thats crazy man again thanks a million
New version
Ok, here is a new version of the Volume Utility. I added Low (30%) med (50%) and max (100%) settings. You can still adjust the volume by entering in a value, and of course mute the volume. A sound will play after any volume modifications to confirm the level.
I cant use Mort Buttons, its for PPC not smartphone but I am going to add the ability to choose your favorite colors and I am still working on adding step up and step down volume change ability via the directional pad
enjoy

ugh sorry for late response been busy. works awesome thanks
Thanks Bupah That a big help! Is there a way to make the speed dial setting the space bar or something that isn't going to blast a tone to the other caller?

Back in "Dash"-land. Wow!

First of all, thanks to everyone who helps makes this forum so great. I visit a lot of forums for various things, but this is one of the best!
Anyhow, I've been a Dash user since Nov 2006. Although the WM5 that was shipping at the time leaved a bit to be desired, the form factor of these phones really impressed me. In fact, I've seen a lot of newer WM phones that are still nowhere near as good as the Dash! The WM6 upgrade was a good one, but these phones really hit their stride with the WM6.1 release(s) -- found at this site, of course. I eventually even blogged my own "upgrade your Dash to WM6.1" post, which has been fairly popular. In December 2008, though, I decided to move on the G1 phone... assuming that newer was better.
Boy was I wrong.
I won't get into all of the details, but after 2 months with the G1, I was finding that many *simple* things were considerably more difficult on the G1 than on the Dash.
I decided to give the Dash a look-see again.
So, I'm back in "Dash"-land using the Rose 1.4 ROM. Wow! I am really amazed at how "out of the box" useful these new ROMs are!! Especially compared to the stock T-Mobile WM6 ROMs, which leave these phones feeling ugly and less useful. The keyboard was immediately wayyyy better than the G1, and I'm back to being able to call people with 2 or 3 clicks, rather than 6 or 7. Aside from the browser interface, I'm really not missing the G1 at all.
A few questions, though...
- My Rose 1.4 ROM has some very nice, colorful icons for the wireless signal, battery, bluetooth and so forth, but they go away when I'm on other screens. Is that typical? Anyway to have the "improved" icons show up everywhere??
- My previous WM6.1 ROM had poor radio reception, for whatever reason, and this ROM is much nicer. Is it expected that some ROMs ship with a better radio module than others?
- I've always turned the JOGGR off due to face-bumping-the-volume up and down issues, but this ROM has helped that a bit. Nice! Is there any way, though, to assign the up-and-down volume control (while in a call) to the up-and-down D-pad? Seems an obvious choice to me.
- Are there any replacements for the stock camera software on these phones? The interface drives me crazy.
- Is it possible to turn off the default "beep" sound when you place a phone call?
- I've noticed that I only hear the phone ring twice or so before it goes to voicemail, but I was used to hearing 3 or 4 rings. Any way to change that?
Ok. That's all I have for now, I guess.
Thanks!
Yip
"Is it possible to turn off the default "beep" sound when you place a phone call?"
yup go to profiles- normal (or whatever one ur on)- edit- scroll down and put system volume to off. thats it i think

- The improved icons are only going to show on the homescreen. The other icons are part of system dll's and have to be edited "in" before they'll show up. I don't think anybody's attempted to skin those on a smartphone yet, but *I* will try soon.
- The ROM doesn't include a radio.... it's either your wishful thinking, or... you just get better reception somehow.
- Don't know of a way to assign the dpad to change the volume. I'm sure it would require some custom programming which is.. above my head
- Don't think there's any camera shell replacements. Sorry...
- Look for a registry key called "Callstart" (in the registry! lol) and remove the associated .wav or .mid in that key
- There might be a "ringdelay" key in the registry. If you find one, set it to 5 to remove the delay. If not, try going into the Phone settings and somewhere in there in "services" you should be able set how many times it rings before it goes to voicemail. This is really an "operator setting", but you can try to change it this way.

What ?!? You're telling him to turn down the volume to get rid of the sound ?
Thanks for the reply, NRG! I really dig your 1.4 ROM. Thx!
Anyhow, I got the "radio" idea from the NRG 1.7 ROM page, as they mention a newer "radio" code. Not true?

[NEED HELP!] HD TAKES TOO LONG TO WAKE UP -many missed calls..-

Till now i have found just about everything in xda! Even a similar thread for the same problem but no solution at all!
Thing is, my hd takes too long to wake up for an incoming call..resulting in missed calls all the time..Ring starts in about 3,5 tones..!!! It wakes almost instandly (backlight) but it takes a lot of time to draw the picture etc and THEN starts ringing..
[i am on MIRIS V18 wm6.5, using the default WM dialer with the sliders (not htc's one!) and csdev for autolocking after wake up]
I had similar problems in many roms, even 6.1 .. with the fastest one being 1,5 tone then ring.. Its allready too long for me! I have tried some tweaks, i am not using mp3 for ringtone, using instant ring from hdtweak and no ring delay setting etc..still no luck..
What can be done? I know that many users have the same problem, even with stock roms.. Its same for such a device to be able to do everything sooo sweat but not the phone function!!
So any special tricks?? (font, gdi cache etc settings?) i heard that with sktools and advanced configuration tool etc you can do actually much about that!
Feel free to post your experinces as well, hoping that someone can provide us with a solution or a worthy workaround..!!
I've got the same problem, always have to call people back. Mostly takes about 5 seconds before the answerbutton works, while ringtone is already pissing off the other passengers in the bus
I still think the slow buildip is caused by Wisbar Advance, I used the HD Tweak aswell.
Very Good POST yes you are right many peoples have the same problem i have the same problem!
So i try with HD tweak "Ring without delay" i try with Advanced config and etc Again the same really when someone ring me no matter from the ringtone or anything the phone start ringing after few seconds!
I make few test and what i saw is that if the phone is sleeping when someone call you take longer your phone to wake up and ring
then i try again with no sleepy phone, again ring with delay so i can say if the phone sleep he need few seconds to ring like 5 seconds if the phone not sleep he need 3-4 seconds But at all This is serious problem and maybe is time we to fix this!
I don`t see any point this device to be able to do so much things and we always to Upgrade them but the phone function that we use everyday to make us troubles!
I have this problem with the stock room when the phone was brand new, after i flash the phone with Davideuck V 5 have the same and now im with Davideuck v7 and again is the same ! so no matter what kind of room or radio version you use this problem is real... and really the phone ring with DELAY
Will be perfect if anyone can find desigion of this problem and our phones to start ring immediately without any delay !
Thanks
I have been struggling for months with well-known this 2-sec (far more than this !) delay. The HD tweak didn't work for me either. Furthermore, it has been reported that even if this setting is changed, it is self-reset after a soft reset !
The only solution I found is replacing the HD Caller ID with the WM default one. It is very ugly compared to the modern HTC one, but now my phone takes only 1 sec to respond, that is, wake up, show the Caller ID screen and start ringing.
This replacement can be done from the settings of the HD tweak.
Please let me know if this works for you ! I'm running stock ROM.
Yes if we use the default WM dialer the PHONE is very very fast and ring without ANY delay but its very UGLY so maybe the problem is in the dailer!
Like i say no matter what room you use yes its the same for me with the default WM and the phone just think faster than me
Maybe some programers must to chek this out why this heppand maybe the HD dialer is too heavy?
Yes,thats true! But i am using wm dialer, not htc's one!! Still far from fast..(although i am on wm 6.5 where the default wm dialer with the answering sliders looks awesome, its buggy and slow as hell..[because it needs that the phone is locked in order to run so])
So as i asked around in a major greek forum i have found out that 99% of hd users have the same issue! [that 1% doesn't give a s&@t !]
Here too..What can we do about it..?I am starting to think the 1,5 tone delay as acceptable value..[told you i am on 3+ right now!!] Does anybody know if windows 6.5 that lock with external programm [like csdev] on wake up take normaly so long? Ideas...?
it's always not a good idea to fresh new rom too often

That has nothing to do with the problem man..!
If we could find a way to minimize the load on wakeup!! (so the hd has nothing to load more than the phone function!)is it possible?
Like i told you with the default WM dialer with WM 6.1 the phone ring without delay and is like every normal phone so this mean that the problem is in the dialer..
I think that the HD dialer is too heavy or buggy and this is the reason why take so long to wake up.. the phone!
Maybe some programers must to chek this out what is the diference betwen the default WM dialer and HD dialer we all know what is the diference.. but i mean the diference not how they look like how they are made and all other litle codec files..
So maybe we can find solution to update the HD dialer to be fast as the default WM one..
No matter you are with WM 6.5 and etc.. because till the problem is not solved no matter what room you will use the dialers will be the same made from the same files..
to resolve this we need to know what exactly is the problem to be able to fix it!
Like i say i think that we can find answers in the DIALER but im not programer..
this is very true and this is a very good post gonna supscribe to instant email about it right now ... i think the problem is not only in the dialer i have a stock rom and i had the problem since the very first day but i got a greater delay after installing spb pocket plus while i am not actually using manilla anymore and even a greater delay after installing wisbar advance 3 ... maybe the solution would be in the processor priorities i dont know
So far, i haven't found any solution .
I already made the same post a few months ago :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=3902624#post3902624
there's got to be a way guys!!
Some time ago, both sides recording was a total NO(!) for htc devices!! They say it was HARDWARE ISSUE and nothing could be done!(for over a year+) Then .. ICR and..voila! We even got tmc now! !
Is it possible to have the slugiest of all phones?? no way!
I think is a question of time we to find solution for our problem with the phone ringing delay!
Managed to get it to 1,5 rings in the same situation!( as i described before, no rom change etc..i was on 3,5 + rings remember!!)
I installed advanced config tool and played with the phone and performance settings.. performance almost set to max values..(font cache etc..)
Phone settings no delay, end key delay from 3000ms to 0 etc..(there are some settings there, so be sure to know what you are doing or backup first!)
Think i can get it to 1..!which will be extremely fast from what i experienced so far!!
Note: the improvements are for the second+ call after a softreset! The first one is ALWAYS slugish!!
Hi kostasalfa,
Mind posting your Adv Config settings? Thanks.
After long... long search I found maybe a solution:
HKCU\ControlPanel\Sounds\RingTone0
Script value to av0pr
I'm going to test but it seems the true way ^^ (thx to AX3L)
D'rath
Ok .. not a "true" solution but got INSTANT ring! (before the end of the first tone!!)
As i said i was on wm 6.5 using the kinda buggy default lock etc...After my advan.config setting which was an improvement i did the following! Stopped csdev and so the deafult lock! I did go back to S2U2 !! (warning,important: set delay after wake up to 300 or better 400 ms!!) And then i tried resco contact manager!(again!) But there is a new beta free for all of you in their forum!( http://www.resco.net/forums/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=24957 ) Set it to HANDLE INCOMING CALLS! Soft reset.. and voila!! (install s2u2 in device..resco better in sd!)
As i said..not a true solution but i GOT INSTANT RING!!
DONT FORGET TO USE HD TWEAK TO REVERT TO DEFAUL WM DIALER, NOT HTC;S ONE!!!
Try abd tell me if it worked for you!
i use the new energy rom 6.5 standard hav no problems with ring time or receive any late calls or miss calls u guys must check out the roms before loading them
Thanks for suggesting to try Resco Contact Manager. The new beta version seems to have corrected the incoming call delay. So far, my HD responded just before the first ring ends. Still testing.

Good news! Resco did it i think..
(i may try the energy rom as wingtytn suggested but i dont think its a roms issue..Ps:wingtytn try to call yourself from another phone to see WHEN it starts ringing..if you got no issues i would lke to know!you use wm stadar dialer?etc!)

select "snooze" interval

Is there any way to select the snooze interval on the pro2?
Right now, when I get a reminder, the snooze only has a duration of 5 minutes. There is no way to select a different interval.
On my Kaiser (and many other phones) I could select a snooze duration (ranging from a few minutes to a few days).
This one is driving me nuts. If I want a reminder a few days in advance, only being able to snooze for 5 minutes is ridiculous!

I miss this function too, i was using my kaiser as my morning alarm clock, and it was great to be able to sleep 15 more minutes or 1 hour if i was really tired just by snoozing it...
But now with the TP2, i cannot do this anymore (5 minutes is not enough, and then i dont want to be late for work )
If i recall correctly Windows Mobile 6.5 has functionality for setting the snooze time
This solution for the Blackstone works also fine on the Rhodium.
Thanx to CrAcKwHoRe
Sorry, but this solution still doesn't work for me... before (Ipaq 914c with WM6.1), if I received an alarm notification I could choose a time of 5-10-15-30-60 or som minutes for snoozing time... now I can only choose "snooze" (for 5 mins) or ignore...
DUTCH ROM
Try changing it manually:
Start a registry editor and navigate to key:
HKLM/System/Shell/Notification/OEM
Change the value of CustomUIDLL from NotificationLayout.dll to NotificationLayoutNew.dll
Just add New, it won't find that .dll and starts the old interface, with the snooze option.
Don't forget, after the registry change, turn the TP2 off and back on to activate.
Works for me like a charm (TP2 WWE, but should also work on a dutch machine)
Have you tried using gAlarm? www.ageye.de
It's pretty good! I also use gProfile to automatically switch the phones profile (silent, vibrate, etc.) depending on the time of day.
This fixed work perfectly with my TP2.....Thanks very much.
NJV
This helped a lot, thank you!
But, isn't there a way (registry?) in order to add custom values like 30mins, 2hrs, 4hrs, 8hrs?
Thank you!
Yup, confirmed working on TP2 :> Thanks!

I agree! I don't like the need to install separate programs while this functionality may as well be available out of the box!
I would love that too, but I'm afraid that's not a reg change, but build into a dll
If someone knows how to change that, please tell us!

Now, if only the TP2 had a scroll wheel....
Is there a way to add more snooze intervals: like 30 mins, 2 hours, 8 hours, 12 hours, 2 days...etc???
Coucou!
Once again, is there any way to customize snooze intervals???
Thanks for those who may have an idea...
cRaCKwHoRe's Snooze ...works, but...
it looks ugly - it introduces piece of old interface into new environment... it is not finger friendly...personally, I am pissed enough even to be reminded that to have to use this old ugly dialogue to get rid of it makes me feel even worse - it is hard to believe that there is no solution to this - mabe some app that would handle all alarms including the appointment and task ones...or at least dialogue (6.5 looking) with more times to select from...I spent literally ours googling it with no success - does anybody know some solution? Thanks in advance

I agree, I installed it thinking it would use the Touch Flow interface and allow me to set a longer snooze.
I like how Touch Flow lets you see the info if you have a con call number in the appointment, it makes it easy to dial.

You change the repeat rate from registry
\HKCU\ControlPanel\Keybd\RepeatRate default 8->4 (or less)
Had no probl. w. double tap to zoom in Opera. You can check the Opera setup with about:config from your browser

Right, I changed the repeat rate and tried from 4 to 3 to 2 right down to 0 and it seems to have no affect on my problem...for example, on my older builds, if i repeatedly pressed '.....' it would input the dots for however many times I pressed the button into my text, even if it did take a few seconds to catch up...now wen I write a text or somethin, i have to wait until the last letter I have pressed is on screen before I can enter a new letter...if I type too quickly, it misses out loads of letters until it feels ready to recieve a new one...before I could just type away and I always knew it would catch up with itself and remember what I had pressed a few milliseconds ago!! now I can repeatedly hit '.......' and only 1 dot will appear on screen! i have to wait a second before I press '.' again! same with backspace....i used to be able to hit backspace repeatedly very quickly and delete a whole load of text, even if it took a second to catch up, now I press it several times and only 1 letter deletes!! I have to wait a few milliseconds to press backspace again before I can delete another letter! very very tedious!! any ideas??! its really buggin me, its ruining the way I text and email. its not just the dots or backspace...every letter is the same, so its basically impossible to type quickly... I've tried another keyboard 2! 'fingerkeyboard' which is really nice and looks great, but it does the same thing!! last build (6.5q) worked fine and the same way as my original 6.1 rom.
Also with opera, I had alook at the config options, but could not see an option to enable double tap to zoom! I dont suppose you know a registry tweak for that aswel do ya??
Looking forward to your reply!
Kind regards
Ben
