Auto turn on/off, WiFi & BT on External Power?

Hi folks, is there a program or a method of setting the TP2 to automatically Turn ON/OFF Bluetooth & or WiFi When external power is connected / disconnected?
Apologies if this has already been covered and I have missed it in the search. I know there is software available for the Diamond but is there anything specific to the TP2? Thanks

I could probably whip that up for you, but if it's available for the Diamond, why not use that?

This has all the tweaking tools you will ever need!

g-profile should work and i think it's free

Have you tried the requestet function with the linked programs? Because TP2 has another Bluetooth-stack than older phones. My SPB PhoneSuite can't turn on Bluetooth on TP2, it worked with TP!

Bluetooth API?

Hey,
i want to start programming an app for my HD2 which should connect one of my bluetooth devices by starting it. I only know a bit about programming under desktop-windows. Where do I find a reference for the programmers api on WM6.5 / where can i look for the commands i need?
//Edit: The functions i found in the MSDN are for connecting - communicating - closing in this way, but i only want to connect a profile (serialport for tmc) and end.
Hope you can help. Thanks.

Found the 32Feet.net SDK but still i can't get the procedures i need.

Nobody with information on programming bluetooth apps?
Somebody must have down something similiar in the past or?

These?:

Thanks for the links. Ok that is how to enumerate the devices and i could do a connection over winsock, but still i can't find information on not really do a connection but only pair the bt device so other applications can use it afterwards. Damn
(More Information: App should be used on WIDCOMM stack to connect tmc and start navigation after that to get rid of the annoying selector window which disappears to quick)

bluetooth questions

Hello
i just got my desire and i have some questions regarding bluetooth use.
maybe im just not finding the right menus but im a little bit stuck
so first the setup and what i have done: i have a bluetooth gps receiver and im trying to connect it to my desire.
i searched, then paired
and after that i get paired but not connected.
a) so how do i connect ? tapping on it didnt do anything and holding got me a menu to unpair the device
b) after i connect how do i create a serial port ? as i understand serial port profile should be usable on android
c) is there a way to autoconnect ?
d) are there any special menus for bluetooth other than the settings menu ?
i'm coming from winmo and im a little bit stuck here
and related to that, is there even a navigation software that can make use of a bluetooth gps receiver ? it seems at least navigon has no option to change the source
thanks in advance

I've not tried with a gps receiver, but I have to ask, why? Is the built in gps no good?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
The currently available navigation software all use the Android system location services to get GPS information, and therefore do not have an option to connect to an external GPS unit.
I'm sure it a navigation solution developer could code their app to use external GPS if they so choose, as the APIs are there, but given that most Android devices have built in GPS they probably can't be bothered as it probably has limited appeal (though I do understand why some people might want it).

hmm ok that answers some of my questions. thanks
what about the adding and connecting questions ?

Which security theft application

Dear members,
can anybody please tell me a security application working on HD? I tried the following, but they either worked only partially or the didn't work at all.
- Ultimate theft alert 3.5
- Where is my phone WIMP
- Don't steel my phone DSMP
- Phone Creeper 0.8
- Sprite Terminator
Can anybody confirm any of these programms working? I'm using a blackstone device with WM 6.5
The application should at least provide the following functuailities:
- silent SMS, if sim card is changed
- possibility to initiate silent callback via SMS
- possibility to get GPS coordinates by SMS
Help / information appreciated. Thanks in advance!
Bye, Tom

solved
I found a application working on Touch HD running WM 6.5. It is called Remote Tracker.
http://remotetracker.sourceforge.net/
It runs nicely, but remember to use the rt2 command if you installed WM 6.5

[Q] Tasker - how to use locale app condition plugin?

Hi,
I'm very new to takser and I'm trying to figure out a simple task.
For example I want to activate WIFI when a specific application(lets say "calculator" as an example) is running and I want WIFI to stay on as long as the the calculator is active.
I understand that tasker only would do such kind of action as long as the application is in the foreground. But I want to keep WIFI on, also if calculator is active in the background.
So, I've found a plugin : locale app condition. This is compatible with tasker but I can't make it work.
Can anyone help me, how I have to use this plugin.
Cheers,
bamthwok

Late response, I know. But do you still need help with this? If you haven't already figured it out, if you have tasker you don't need the locale plugin to accomplish what you're after - that plugin is specifically for location based tasker profiles.
i.e. turn on wifi when you're at home, turn it off when you're x distance from home.
To accomplish what you're trying to do in tasker, just create a new profile with the condition "application-> calculator" and the task /action "network-> wifi state -> on" and you're done. Have an exit task that turns off wifi in the same way and you're all set.
For bonus points have an additional "if" condition that makes sure this profile doesn't fire if wifi is already active as it's safe to assume that you want wifi on regardless of what the calculator is doing.
p.s.
My phone isn't presently within arms reach so if I've gotten the exact names/locations of the functions you want in tasker wrong, then use some initiative and you'll be all set.
