Must Have / Must Do Tweaks

Having reset my Tilt / Kaiser / Tytn II more than once, I am compiling a list of tweaks that I can't live without and reinstall every time.
If you use a "MUST HAVE" app/tweak/rom, please post it, including the link to the discussion/download, including a brief description and a SHORT pro / con list.
Please post questions and opinions about the app/tweak/rom in the forum referred to in the post. Questions and flames about a tweak etc. should be posting in those forums.
If your tweak/cab/app is less than mainstream, could you put in a link to it in your posts?

Description: A replacement for your phonebook/contact application, FFF features the DRMWY-Touch keyboard, a unique way to type on the touchscreen without a stylus.
Pro's: The keyboard. Its unique design allows a big-fingered guy like me to type on its keyboard with amazing speed and accuracy.
Cons: Contact font is a bit small to read. Does not display contact photo.

There is already a thread for CAB files and a thread for tweaks. Why another one???

because he wants a "must have" set, which is really more an opinion than not. but not a bad idea.

here's what I do so far when I do a new rom
set up my emails
change today screen
change clock font
install quick menu
install tomtom
install my games
install sprite backup
install or turn on HTC task manager
install spb pocket plus and change some settings
install siriuswm5
install MS voice command 1.6
load up kaiser tweaks and do my normal tweaks
load HHC and change some other things

great thread
I was going to start something like this anyway.
XDA Live Rom
HTC Home
& HTC Home Customizer
HTC Audio Manager installed to windows directory
HTC Photo Album
Either Cyberon Voice Dial or MS Voice Command
Rush Hour Game - need to find more (bustem isn't bad)
I keep the shortcuts created by Advanced Config
TomTom - Killer App
PTT button switched to voice dial
hold PTT switched to vibraswitch (vibrate to ringer and vice versa prog)
A task manager (HTC for now)
The retouched dialer (for bigger buttons, with sound turned off)
opera mobile
This black background (take off the .zip so it's a .tsk again)
View attachment Spb_Black47.tsk.zip
I have more coming. There's the streaming media app needed to get youtube videos.

do you have an advanced config that works?

advanced config
yes, but I'm kinda squeemish about stability so I don't use it just to be safe. I use the shortcuts b/c I find them useful, e.g. screen off -good for music

AdvancedConfig_v1.1.cab
This one works for me just fine.

Opera Mini icon cab

Made this cab to add the Opera icon to your Opera Mini shortcut under programs.
I got sick of looking at the generic Esmertec Jbed icon, and feel this is a more polished solution.
I'm running Open Touch V3 which came with Opera Mini already loaded, so this cab may or not work for your specific rom, but it can be easily uninstalled if it doesnt work for you. YMMV
If it does work on your rom please confirm here, Thanks!

Very Nice. Thank You!

Totally awesome... was thinking about doing the same thing!!!
Now this is definetely an ELEGANT solution! Thanks a lot!!!!!!

You should do the same thing for the GMAIL app
I started looking into the whole icon thing once, but ended up not following thru with it... so awesome you got it working.

Can you send me the gmail link file, and i will look into it.

Works great on my wing! Im currently running Open Touch 4.0 Lite. Thanks!

Wow, this is just awesome. Thanks alot

Next step... how to associate url files with Opera Mini
the formula...
I tried to register Opera Mini as the default program to open url files. I used the following command line:
"\Storage Card\Program Files\Esmertec Java\jbed.exe" -run s0_ ?\Windows\operal.exe,-0 "%1" which is basically your shortcut with an additional %1 (open file). Of course it didn't work.
Any suggestions?
And again... thanks for the cab. It finally made Opera Mini my default Browser!

thanks - works great on AT&T Tilt!

Check out the screenshot to my software pack (link in my signature). It was created for this exact purpose and much more. Let me know if you have any other questions. Here are some highlights of it's abilities:
copy/paste (really helpful on SmartPhones)
clipboard history
multi-browser & default browser support
hacks/tweaks/troubleshooters
Thanks!
JZ

JZ SmartMort v1.4 Released!
Announcing JZ SmartMort v1.4!​
Now you can use JZ SmartMort to create Opera Mini and any other JBed application icon on your Start Menu!
Have a look at the screenshots of JZ SmartMort, available HERE or at SourceForge. Below are the prominent features that the software offers.
Copy / Paste
Clipboard / URL history
Multi-browser (Opera Mini, Opera Mobile, NetFront, Skyfire, Internet Explorer)
Make any installed browser system-level, where it opens links from anywhere. Ability to have a default browser (with a special timeout in case you want to open a link with a non-default browser).
Hardware buttons - supports Pocket PCs & SmartPhones for advanced hardware button mapping.
Opera Mini - shortcut on the Start Menu, different paste & URL handling methods to accommodate different phones.
JBed - create Start Menu shortcuts for any JBed app, run JBed App directly using JZ SmartMort, troubleshoot your JBed installation.
Ability to open synced Mobile Favorites with any browser, process killing and many other interesting features.
Includes general tweaks and hacks which will keep growing
Revisions:
v1.4 *** 2008-07-07
- Created help files.
- Browser: Skyfire fully compatible now, new scan/detection with fail-over paths (if browsers references don't exist in the usual locations like the registry). If default browser timeout is set to zero, the JZ Browser prompt will be bypassed entirely.
- Opera Mini: full-screen, kill JBed option, multiple URL & pasting options.
- Lots of new options for button mapping. All known registry and link file button hacks now integrated to allow virtually any command to be called up. Also provides ability to create a CUSTOM link file from scratch.
- Changed menus to include menu-returns for easy navigation and better user friendliness. Added letters to Action menu as qwerty keyboard shortcuts.
- Phone-specific menu under JZ Settings which expands button mapping for BlackJack II (Samsung i617) CV/MediaNet buttons, as well as, AT&T Tilt (HTC Kaiser) PTT & Long-PTT buttons. More will be added.
- Creation of Start Menu shortcuts & opening of JBed applications w/o needing to open JBed first.
- 3 different methods under JZ Settings > JZ Misc. Options for opening Favorites. Save a Favorite from the JZ Browser script when you pop a link.
- Incorporated VitoCopyPaste with a timeout to return your directional pad action button back to normal.
- Various speed & optimization considerations incorporated.
- Function to deal with MortScript losing focus (e.g. when Home is pressed while Mort choice menu is running).

thanx a lot!!

MustHave apps on every rom :-)

I thought it would be a good idea to compile list of all of your favorite apps but only limited to the essential stuff, a definite must have on every rom you use. Things you put there initially where there is nothing else.
Some people like having Skype, other Opera already preinstalled but there is software which everyone would like to have compiled in already.
In my case there are 4 apps I add every time I change rom (if they are not there already of course )
1. QuickMenu - replaces WM start menu, works as task manager and quick launch - very very very useful and free! ;-)
2. Battery Status - self explainatory, displays battery status but also other interesting indicators.
3. Calendar+ - replaces standard today calendar allowing to display multiple days in advance, no extra fireworks, just simple few days ahead calendar.
4. PhoneWeaver - GREAT profile management application, since I bought it I never changed sound settings manually - it knows when I'm at work, when I'm sleeping and when its weekend and it can ring as loud as it wants! ;-)
I put these 4 in a rar so if someone wants to try them can have a go -
they are >> here <<
what are your "a must have" applications?

Googlemaps and PocketPutty.
http://www.pocketputty.net/

My Top 10:
1. Phoneweaver (SBHSH) - The first app I install after a hard reset or new flash. Couldn't do without it.
2. Lordsmiff's Battery Level - Nice, unobtrusive battery meter.
3. PocketWeather (SBSH)
4. SwartB SmartDevice - Adds a few important menu options to the Messaging app, like "Delete All" and "Mark All as Unread".
5. Google Maps
6. TeleNav
7. S2U2
8. Microsoft LiveSearch
9. Opera Mini
10. KeePass

Okay. To answer your questions:
1. Remote access via their site and application
2. you can view your PC through your PPC
3. If you pay for it (which I haven't), you can access your PC's files and transfer then to your kaiser. You can transfer the audio too, so you can play your 80gigs of music on your pc but hear it through your kaiser.
Installation Instructions:
1. Go to www.logmein.com and register for the site.
2. Install LogMeIn to your PC
3. Install LogMeIn to your PPC by going to https://secure.logmein.com/pda/ (via Internet Explorer, wont work with Opera, Netfront, or Skyfire) and login to your account. It all ask you to dowload and install the PPC client.
4. After it has been installed, it will show you a list of your computers
5. Click the one that you named your pc that you installed it to first
6. Login to your remote pc by entering your remote pc's account name and password. (NOTE: This won't work unless you have a password on your PC's account)
7. Remote Access
8. Click the corner of the screen (top, bottom, left, right) to scroll that way if you don't make it fit to desktop.
I'll upload a few pics later.

And many more, but those are the essentials.

What we REALLY need
something that could access the system databases so we could install stuff like pcm keyboard(htc skin) and throttle launcher without a cab/.exe file.
otherwise, I would prefer
the ones mentioned
s2p
aim beta or anything like that
opera 9.405 cuz it has flash
google maps
live search
kaiser tweak
There is alot of stuff in freewarepocketpc.net

VITO's Fun Contacts is my new favorite program. EVERYONE should check it out. iphone like functionality with your contacts

Apps I cant live without on my Kaiser

I'm gong to share my favorite applications/games for the Kaiser. Some tips may be thrown in as well!
Applications:
Memory Map weather radar
Just what it says, fast loading animated weather radar. With zoom support and location settings.
BTSpammer
This little program will send out vcards, images, or text messages to any device in range. It is VERY useful for walking around the mall to send bogus messages such as: Welcome to our store! Please note that while in our store it is policy to record phone calls, sms messages, and contact lists while you are on our property to help deter theft. If you do not agree with this policy please see a store manager or leave at once. Thank you for your compliance, store management.
WiFiFofum
Best damn ppc wardriving tool out there! Honestly, the only way my laptop could beat this app is to have a external GPS unit. I keep it on while I'm in the car to find exciting locations around the city. I recommend exporting to memory card in a folder than merging files as you go along. upload the results to a wardriving map so others can benefit on your findings.
Tilt keyboard fix
Does what it says. Fixes hardware keyboard assignments for custom roms. No more will I have to guess where ! is at
Resco Keyboard
I love this keyboard! I can use it with my fingers if need be. My only gripe is that the . @ and other common punctuation marks are in the number page. It drives me crazy to switch between numbers and letters so I installed a new skin in the included skin downloader.
Resco File Explorer
This comes in major use on a day to day basis for me. It can browse network shares, do FTP, and modify my registry. Not only does it have a touch friendly interface option, I find it much more useful than touch commander for most tasks. Built in search is fast and you can populate the window with results for mass selecting and modifying.
Sprite Backup
I use this backup program (from the makers of norton ghost) between ROM upgrades. It is so good that if you don't configure your restore properly you run the risk of reverting changes made in that new rom release to the one you upgraded from. Nothing outside ROM is safe from this monster, I have had no issues with multiple backups and restores
Safemode
There is a program for ppc called safemode. What is does it lets you go into a limited shell (accessible from splash screen) to remove applications, browse folders, modify the registry, and some more. Why run the risk of having to hard reset when you can just remove that today plugin that's making it fail I hate having to reinstall everything over again, now you don't have to.
Magi Call 2
I use this program a lot more than I will ever know since it runs in the background with a nice GUI for configuring it. Don't want someone calling you? Block em! Want to create custom rules for sms and phone numbers? MagiCall it! I found out about this little program when a ex girlfriend would not leave me alone. Now I have all sorts of telemarketers and spam blocked. Owning a Kaiser for any reason would be the addition of this program! Every phone should have it! (might want to try callfirewall. free and it is also a nice program fro here at XDA!).
Opera Mini
Sure Opera mobile and skyfire is great for media rich web surfing but I hate waiting for pages to load. If I need flash, I'll start up my Nokia N810 or netbook. Very very unbelievably fast while still retaining my loved feature of double click zooming. Comes with a option to sync with your desktop version of Opera. Have not tried that out yet.
nueGPSSecurity
I don't know how many times I have lost my phone in my house and this free program has saved me! I just send a sms to my phone via e-mail and the alarm will go off giving me a beacon to save the Kaiser. It's also good for remote tracking if your phone gets stolen and other features but I have not tried these yet since my phone has not been stolen.
S2U2 (slide to unlock 2)
I don't use the unlock function very much like other people do (you know, to check the time, I wear a solar powered atomic watch), instead I love the slide to answer function. I no longer fear answering my phone my accident because it is in my holster or pocket. Something that looks cool and is functional.
Newsflash RSS reader
Siimply the best RSS and podcast reader on the planet for my uses. Sure, the included RSS reader is fine and all but I listen to a lot of RSS based podcasts. This will also work for video podcasts. How it works is it saves the mp3s and mp4s (or any other supported format) to a folder you setup in the settings and let it rip! I run it in the background at startup and use manila's media page to listen/watch my feeds. This functionality should of been made in the phone.
To manage all of these applications I simply turn on "view hidden files and folders" and go to my device on my PC, then in the "windows/start menu/programs" folder I categorize all my apps into folders. This way, when I go into programs, i don't have to search forever to find a program. TIP! Make a favorite in windows explorer of the start menu folder. Having to go into windows then your start menu folder takes forever for the file list in /windows to load. You will have one click access to where you want to go.
I may of missed some but check out my application install list!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=470519
It does not go slow with so many apps as others believe. After all, what is installed doesn't slow anything down, it's what's running that does.

Thanks, I will take a look at your list and try a few what's new for me.

I guess you mean "Navizon" not WiFiFoFum or not?

I agree with a couple of those.
I've found that I'm increasingly dependant on Kinoma for news and music. If you haven't tried it out, look it up on Google. They have a free version which allows you to listen to shoutcast, youtube videos, news broadcasts and such, The $30 version allows you to listen to 1,000s of live broadcast radio stations and watch live tv streams and more. Most stations on shoutcast stream at 96-128kbps and they connect and stream very well over 3G / HSDPA
Also, WMWiFiRouter is essential for me so I can share my connection with my laptop, other PDAs, and other people that are around me.
I use Barcorama when I'm shopping sometimes to look up the best prices, pretty quick usually.
GRemote lets me control my laptop when I hook it up to my big screen in my bedroom without having to have a gigantic wireless keyboard.
Google maps and Live Search are also essential, each having their distinct advantages (Street View and routes in Gmaps and speech recognition and gas prices in Live Search) Both use GPS very quickly.
QuickGPS updater. Simple. Get it.
MyMobiler... omg.. that app is such a lifesaver. I have a lot of devices and the last thing I need to do is have my phone in the middle of my desktop. I can plug it into the USB port and put it behind my laptop and forget about the actual device. Paired with my BT headset, I can do everything without losing the multitasking I so love.
RSS Hub is a great one too. My wife loves it too because I'm spending as much time on blogs at home anymore.
SKYFIRE and OPERA 9.5 Best mobile browsers out there. I have used Opera Mini, but I found it to be a bit quirky and I don't really have an issue with speed since my network in this area is typically about 1MB down and 500k up.
TOMTOM7 ... 'nuff said. Best nav out there. Now with speed notifications and HOV lanes
Remote Desktop. Great tool for when I'm not at my PC to do simple tasks, also good for managing my TED install so I can make sure I get all my tv shows
Ah, and Fring. Which leads me to ask, is there a plugin for fring, or an app for winmo that does facebook chat?

great apps
i already had some of them. I tried resco keyboard and im practically hooked now.
^^^Gremote is pretty amazing too!

imho newest spb keyboard (4.1.0) is waaaaaaaaaay better than resco's.
don't want to hijack thread, but I also luv: coreplayer, s2v, nebopad and total commander
most of them are quite well known and nebopad is the BEST notepad app on ppc.
thank You for Your attention. goodbye..

Resco Explorer 2008
Total Commander (Always useful for copying over ROM files)
Resco Registry Editor
CorePlayer (i.m.o best video player)

Opera Mini as only slow network speed
Opera v9.5
Skyfire
SU2U
SKTools (Handy for sorting out startup items and cleaning)
Mundu IM
Calendar Touch (Transfer from smartphone so wanted to keep same software)
Mobiion MagiCall
pTravelAlarm (Wouldn't get up in the morning without it)
SmartGear MAME
nodata (Piece of mind over data charges)
MochaVNC (Keeps me in contact with home when out and about)

WiFiFoFum(agreed, a great name) always you to scan all Wireless Access Points broadcasted, including certain vitals as to their SSID's, WEP enabled or not, and other techie goodies. Plus, you can enable GPS and create an actual map of WiFi Hotspots for you and your friends. It also has a radar feature that shows WAPs in reference to you (I think it's just more for fun than practicality).
Also, I have never been able to get Barcorama to work on my phone. I have it installed with the netcf, but when i load the program and press the camera button, the whole thing craps out. even when i take a picture seperately and try to open it with barcorama it craps out. very frustrating cause it looks like it would be fun.

Sounds interesting - I'll give it a try. Thanks

Go to the settings for barcorama and check Live Scanning and Use Autofocus. Eliminates opening the camera and the whole clicking the shutter - i.e. inducing shaking. Just hold it over the barcode and it automatically detects it. Sweet program.

Hi,
No need to upload them again, there are many times on the the web or on this board, just need to search a little!

Does anyone have a working version of QuickGPS I can grab please? I tried the one in the Polaris thread but that wont install on my Kaiser...
Thanks

SPB Mobile Shell - Still the best and easiest to navigate today replacement
SPB Phone Suite - The ability to have the phone switch on and off automatically at set times is a godsend. I only have to charge every 5 days or so!

Also, I have never been able to get Barcorama to work on my phone. I have it installed with the netcf, but when i load the program and press the camera button, the whole thing craps out. even when i take a picture seperately and try to open it with barcorama it craps out. very frustrating cause it looks like it would be fun.

Check to see what you have your image size set to. It doesn't work in 3MP mode. I just installed it due to this thread and it's pretty awesome.
Thanks guys!

My Personal Favorite Apps/Tweaks

I thought it was about time I shared my secrets. I've thoroughly tested every app. What doesn't work well, I don't post or use. Most if not all are .cab files so installing them is a snap. Some applications do require a second program for them to run, thus it would be more convienient if you were to install them first. The two files are Adobe Flash 7, and the .NET 3.5 Framwork...
Flash 7: http://download.macromedia.com/pub/flash/devices/pocket_pc/installers/fp7_ppc_en.cab
.NET 3.5: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...49-3C6B-42F1-9FD9-0041345B3385&displaylang=en
Unfortunately the .cab file is somewhat hard to find for the .net framework. The link I've inlcuded is from Microsoft and is installed from your PC. If all else fails a quick internet search for ".net compact framework cab" should get a result. Make sure you install both of these programs TO THE DEVICE.
Note...the list isn't in any order, I like them all!
FlashLIGHT
This is one of my favorite programs. It's called FlashLIGHT. It's a flash application (amusing isn't it?). It's an .exe file you copy into your programs folder under My Device>Windows>Start Menu>Programs. Then it will appear in your programs list. It's a really nice app with some really neat features...including...THE LIGHTSABER. Yes, for once, a lightsaber app for a phone without a motion sensor.

S2U2 (Slide to Unlock 2) and S2V (Slide to View)
Here's one that was just updated today! I really like this one just because it's really easy to use. It has full screen caller ID, SMS, MMS, and Email notifications. I would recommend you install it to the phone.
The other app that also works with S2U2 is S2V, it's a really nice photo viewer that you can also use to set the background to the today screen, contacts, and the background for portrait and landscape mode in S2U2.
More information and the links to download are at the developer's site...

Batti 2.4
This plugin is really handy. It's a battery gauge that sits at the top of the taskbar and shows graphically how much battery is left. There are like one or two other apps similar to this but this one is very customizeable. Install this one to the device.

HTC Home Customizer
This one is kind of nice just for a change of pace. If you're like me, you got bored looking at the same plugin. Install to the device.

StopWatch 2.2
Very nice chronograph app. Haptic feedback (vibrates when you tap the buttons), split, and alarms. You can install this to the storage card.

Pencil Box
This one is really nice. This is the free version, and as you will find out, you can't save your masterpieces. I have the full version and if you're into sketching like me, it's well worth the $13. You can install this to the storage card.

Kaiser Tweak
This is a MUST for any Kaiser owner. Enable HSDPA, turn off that extremely annoying startup sound, make the keyboard faster, and much more! Make sure you do a soft reset after changing any settigns. Install this to the device.

Well I think that about does it.
