Here I am going to reposit the multiple dev topics i am working on and a dev blog and where we r pushing.
Some of these topics will have been discussed before and apps released.
I am going to take 'em and tie em together for bigger goal.
Some of these Mortscript apps were written a long time ago and can benefit from a more robust version of Mortscript.
Also I will post as many script tools here as I can. Some tools are scripts I have written but don't deem their own thread. Other things are the real applications I find indispensable.

Links of Mort utils.
Wav player - Mort seems not to want to play different types of wav files. This app will let u test them through mort. I will list the types that Mort doesnt play and the types of wav it does play.
bluetooth functionality.
Currently there is no working Bluetooth toggler for phones with the Widcomm bluetooth stack. I made a working toggler with the help of Pocketmax PhoneAlarm. I am pretty sure i can make a stand alone bluetooth toggler now.
With Phone alarm i can have the bluetooth go on and off when I plug my phone in. As long as I can use Phone alarm I have that issue licked. I could Mort that, but Phone alarm is so great that if I can use it, i do. All these apps I work with I am stuck with the trial versions, but since I end up resetting my phone every other week that never is too much of a problem.
The remaining issue is with turning on Microsoft Voice command with my car settings. We're going to take a look at that here. For auto profile switching i can detect if the car is connected AND my computers bt dongle is connected, i am at home: (disable the car bt so i dont miss calls) Also if first connect of computer after being connected to car, auto run ActiveSync and sync up.
Also I can have Voice command msg me with spoken msgs using the SMS sender I wrote. What could work better is to make appts and have voice command read those. I expect to bump into some walls.
After a number that is unknown but the number is available can popup a while pages with the number.
sill want a whois posted to the dialer screen status. will the internet kill the call? no, right?
So my phone cant run http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=298279&page=6 but i can make it work with mortscript. also phonelog should do this on my phone can do this, but it is always 5 hours off when it stores it. i have complained about this bug for the last 2 years or so, but since i am the only one with this problem, updates have never fixed this for me. obviously i should just write my own.

internot
A good hard look at the connected to internet detector. Why does iexplore connect to the internet and morts sometimes don't?
One more for the pie.
Issues and walls that are suck.
I dont have GPS, or even rkLocation. WTH. But I do have internet. Which means maybe I could use a web page What;s my ip to get a location. I couldnt use that to drive a map program of course but just maybe I could tell that I was not at home and set my bluetooth and stuff to on.
Some apps use a static location. If i can get a zip it might be possible to inject it for the app to use.
Also, we can't detect how much memory a program takes up, for example in a task manager. but we do know how much memory was available before we opened the app and then how much free after.
phone creeping.
Just between u n me.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=502214
A number of lost phone apps can do certain remote tricks. I don't want to reinvent any wheels, but none of these apps work on my Windows Mobile 5 Smartphone. To tell the truth I already have gotten most of the lost phone functionalities working with StatusTicker. But we can go a bit further than just send back SMS with GPS or even rkLocation (I can do that, sure). Here are some additions I will be workin on shortly:
Remote activation of cameras to take some pictures and remote live video.
http://www.mobiletopsoft.com/pocket-pc/download-mobiscope-video-from-webcams-2-6-15.html
Remote trigger an online backup.
File Forte (Auto FTP backup)
Shozu
Apps that capture documents and upload em to online could also capture the call logs and sms logs.
Evernote
Dashwire (I better hurry while it's free)
Qiik? sends video
Send Back data:
Send me all my SMS Received/Sent
Send me my call history
What's my phone's Ip?
Remote purge
Remote lock
Turn on the bluetooth and annoy the neighbors. It could be possible to turn on the bt and then use it like a range finder with a different phone. Of course we can just unmute it remotely if its muted and trigger an alarm sound.
Downloading on a smartphone
I'm Batman
Here we will look at keycap ing and how close we can approximate it.
Using Iexplore as a config editor.
I am pretty sure I can use html pages to modify config ini's.
By having the page pass itself the arguments on the url, they show up in the page title and thereby can be reintegrated with Mort.
I already set up the html a few years ago on a e-commerce site I worked on. I found my old javascript codes which pass and interpret the ? and & variables you see in the url address bar. This means I can can use check boxes, input boxes, etc...
I am thinking this is going to be very cool.
Poor mans motion detector
So can we make a motion detector?
take picture
take another
compare size.
if size <> image has changed.
What about taking a picture/screenshot and if its black then we can check its size and see that it is dark?
If there is no native camera click option, and we can't access the camera sometimes, we may be able to leave the camera view open and then take screenshots with a screenshot app and then use those picks...
***
Mort doesnt give size of an app in memory.
so we would have to subtract the new free space from the old memory. yikes?
AppToDate - Mortscript support and integration
integrate Apptodate version checking and updating without using apptodate:
AppToDate Subroutine for Mortscript
Hi,
So I have AppToDate support in my Voice command app. So if you have AppToDate it will report whether you need an update and can download and install from there.
I have made a subroutine for your AppToDate supported mortscript app so it can check for an update.
We could have it download the updated cab. I can't use the download command since I have a smartphone. I guess I could make the PPC version and then have my app run AppToDate on my Smartphone.
And to think I hesitated.
Attached Files
File Type: zip AppToDateSub.zip (1.9 KB, 0 views)
Infra red receiver/transmitter
i wonder if i can make a Infra red receiver/transmitter with mortscript?
Well we cant do infra red output. but we could activate the infra red receiver and then use a remote control on it?
Phone Utils
Can we identify the caller and if known, open the contact with that callers name. Yes, I think we can.
Bluetooth
Solution : all system sound in headset
I found a solution for route all system sounds in a non-stereo Bluetooth headset, the microphone still works for calls but at the end of a call the sound is back in the speaker and must restart to make it work again.
Does anyone know what is the problem?
To do this we must change a registry value: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Widcomm\Connections
Choose your device hands free in the right folder 0001 0002 0003 ....
And change the value of BDDevClass 24 04 04 to 12 01 04

Send Twitter updates by text message
If you add your phone to Twitter, you can update anywhere, anytime by simply sending us a text message! Once your phone is verified, you can start sending (and receiving!) updates instantly. Depending on where you are, you may have a local number. You can send a text message to any of these numbers and it will post directly to your Twitter profile, and be sent to all of your followers:
We currently support 2-way (sending and receiving) Twitter SMS via short codes and 1-way (sending only) via long codes.
Short codes for 2-way Twitter SMS:
US: 40404
Australia: 0198089488 (Telstra customers)
Canada: 21212
UK: 86444 (Vodafone, Orange, 3 and O2 customers)
India: 53000 (Bharti Airtel customers)
Indonesia: 89887 (AXIS and 3 customers)
Ireland: 51210 (O2 customers)
New Zealand: 8987 (Vodafone and Telecom NZ customers)
1-way long codes:
Germany: +49 17 6888 50505
Sweden: +46 737 494222
All other countries: +44 762 4801423
We're working on getting more local short codes for other places, and we'll update this list as they become available. If you travel out of the country, check with your mobile provider to see if they route text messages to local short codes, of if you'll need to use the international number instead.
If you use 40404, you can send and receive unlimited messages from Twitter, but we do advise you to check with your provider to make sure your text plan covers text messaging. If you use one of our other numbers, you're limited to 250 messages per week, refreshing every Sunday at 12:00am GMT.
For people using any number other than 40404: once your phone is verified, you'll be able to send your updates to +44 7624 801423 , but you will not be able to receive text updates from Twitter. Find out more on the Twitter Blog.
A word of caution for UK residents using the international number: some carriers don't charge an international fee to use the Twitter international number within the UK, but others do. Some carriers consider it an international number and charge from .15 to .25 per message. Remember to check your phone plan for international rates; be aware that even in the UK, standard messaging rates vary by carrier, and do apply.

Interesting
I have added Engadget and The Register to my RSS feeds.
Has anyone any idea if/how one can modify the xml files or whatever it is so that a custom icon could be associated with a particular subscription?
I am sure it is possible on some level because the preloaded RSS options have unique icons. I'd love to implement the Engadget and Register icons and any future RSS feeds I decide to add....would make the incoming alerts much more quickly recognizable.
While we're at it.....I've had this phone for 2 weeks and on ONE incoming call, the notification of an incoming call appeared in the ticker, and only the ticker. I don't recall what I was doing when that happened, and cannot seem to reproduce this no matter how many test calls I try. Was this a fluke? I'd actually love for all my incoming calls to appear in the ticker....since I usually hit ignore anyway! Anyone know how this is supposed to work?
sorry for posting two mostly unrelated questions
Anyone could suggest auto-reply app where you could make whitelist for the people accepting calls and the rest auto-answering with SMS?
Used to use Advanced Call Manager on symbian where you could define profiles based on provider station you are currently connected on.Took some time to detect all the cells in home, work, caffe area but it switches profile s automatically later on and at home it accepts family calls but respond all the rest with SMS.
The droid version of this app does not have this functionality anymore and just as an answering machine is in my opinion way too expensive.
Suggestions and experiences welcome.
Thx
Edit:
The closest app I found would be TEXTBACK Geo but it seems unavailable :=(

bump.
I can not believe no one is using busy self answering app in this board ?
Miui has one where when someone calls you it sends a text with your permission saying Not Available or some other message like that1
Thank you aaasey786 , but not exactly what i am looking. Any other thoughts?
Hola! I'm looking for an sms app that allows me to hide messages from a certain number when received. I don't just want to hide the SMS, but I also want to hide the notifications for messages from certain numbers.
Been trying out Lookout Security and Plan B and their Find My Phone feature. What I notice is that Lookout sends an SMS to your phone, then it starts transmitting its GPS coordinates. Is there any way to hide this notification SMS? If my phone ever gets stolen I don't think it would do me any good for the thief to see a message from Lookout >.>
I've tried Go SMS msg filtering but it doesn't work like how I want it to. It suppresses the msgs and keeps them in a separate folder with no notifications, but what it actually does is smuggle the message and Lookout doesn't get a response that the SMS is received, and thus I cannot start tracking >.>
Any help?
Depends on your company, but you can call them and they can usually block SMS/call from certain numbers.
Sent from my HTC G2 (wish it had sense).
I don't want to block the SMS per se as it is needed by Lookout to start the trace, but what I am actually looking for is for an app that surppresses the notifications of messages from certain numbers. Basically the SMS is received but there will be no notice of it until I check a certain folder or something~
Avast! Mobile Security has those Features. If your phone is stolen you can send an SMS to it that has to begin with your set Avast! Password. Then you can start tracking, lock the device, start a Siren-Tone etc...! The message is not shown. The app is hidden under a fake name and will also inform you if the SIM card has changed and send you an SMS with the new number so you can send your commands.
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA App
You may want to take a look at AndroidLost in the market.
I have used SmrtGuart, Webroot, Lookout, and AL seems to work the best and uses zero resources.
You can use the web interface to locate, track, call, take pictures, wipe, record audio, etc and it does not use SMS, but if you do want to use SMS, you have that option to control from another number that you have approved (Google SMS, friend's phone etc). Feature List
It has hidden SMS as well.
I use Cerberus from the market and it has the features you desire
Sent from a desire z
Thanks! I'll try out those apps
Information in advance: as I am new I can't post links, so those are plain text.
I want to be able to forward the notifications of specific applications to my car.
The car is able to get the SMS list of my phone, so it would be great if the notifications appear inside there (e.g. WhatsApp).
After further reading, I have realized that the Bluetooth MAP Profile (bluetooth.com/specifications/assigned-numbers/message-access-profile) is used by my car to communicate regarding SMS.
I found an application in the play store that does exactly what I need:
Notification Forwarder Pro (play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.groebl.sms)
Unfortunately the big drawback is that you have to set it as default messaging application.
And I do not want to do this.
Does anyone know about an application/possibility to achieve what I want without the need to change the default messaging application?
In the best case I would just have a whitelist of notifications I want to send.
Thank you already!
