tried searching the forums
could only find psshutxp
any other useful software for restarting and putting the diamond on standby ? preferably free ones
trying to avoid using the power button
is there a program that can completely turn off d diamond as well ?
thanks
What's wrong with psshutxp?
use GSEN then all you do in turn the Diamond face down and it goes into standby
ok using shutxp for standy mode
how bout to completely shutdown the diamond ?
any programs for that instead of holding down the power button ?
thx

Kick assss way, You dont even need to place the phone on its side you can "mimik" a laying down action by simiulating in the air a fast turn around movement.
Enjoy Fellassss.
i'm using psshutxp 0.29 vga on my diamond bepe 0.96.
i can softreset or turn the display off perfectly but shutdown does not work!! if i press the shutdown icon it's the same as display off...
can anyone confirm that bug?
shutdown / turn off puts it into standby mode so the screen should be off but the pda isnt running aside from receiving calls/sms
standby you say, interesting... so there is no way to definitly shut down the device using that app.
psshutxp 0.29 & bepe 0.97

I can confirm with bepe's 0.97 ROM
I'm using Dutty's V1 and psShutXp 0.29 vga is working great for me, ie when I press the screen off S2U2 does not launch, but when I press device off it does, also music continues to play with screen off and not with power off. Am I missing something?
heres a shut down app...
World is strange. You are trying to have some software to turn off your Diamond. While I'm struggling to find a solution to fix my Diamond restarting itself.
PsShutXP mapped to power button.
Check out this great version of PSShutXP.
It is the very latest version of the executable - even newer that available on their official homepage - together with a VGA skin accurately matching Manila (TF3D) in both graphics and colour.
The killer part is that it is mapped to the power button, meaning a long press will bring up the application with the three PSShutXP options, while a short press will remain as the usual functionality of turning the display off (standby).

I finally found a power utility to restart the device via on screen selection that looks good too. However, one other function I need it to do is shut down without having to press the side button for 5 seconds and then confirm with on screen touch.
I've read in other theads that ShutXP is meant to fully switch off the device but on my v1615 it simply switches the display off (locks the screen etc, just as if the power button was depressed momentarily).
Is there a bug with the v1615 (Vodafone branded TyTn II/Kaiser) and this tool? Does anyone else have a Kaiser and the ShutXP tool and experience this issue? Perhaps I have something else installed which is causing it not to shutdown properly??
I've noticed a DWORD registry entry for ShutXP in HKLM\Software\PPCSpft\psShutXP\VideoPowerOff which has a default value of 0. Setting this to 1 doesn't seem to make a difference to any of the features.
OK, I'll ask it in a slightly different way as I've done a little more searching around and cannot find any tools to do this...
How do you switch off the TyTn II without pressing the side power button?
i.e. have a shortcut in the HTC Launcher which powers down the device similar to psShutXP but not just to sleep??
I'm talking about completely switching the device off - not just putting it to sleep. Pressing the power button for more than 4 seconds allows you to switch the device off, completely.
PS shutxp
Have you heard of PSShutXP??
Have used it before... does what you desrcibe...

PsShutXP is not able to do that. I think it isn't even possible with any software. (AFAIK)
Thanks johanromijn, couldn't think of any other way of making it any more clearer...
I've read somewhere about a command prompt interface on the ppc which can emulate many functions. Do you know about this? I'm sure it could do many power functions but I can't for the life of me find the same one I read about.
Pressing the button simply sends a software command so perhaps it can be captured and saved to a shortcut on the touch screen. I could understand the difficulty if it were a hardware switch! Unfortunatly, the button capture software I've used doesn't register the button press and the device just warns me about loosing any unsaved data before powering off - screen capture attached.
I just don't want to waste battery unnecessarily over night or elsewhere when the device isn't required to be on.
Anyone got any suggestions??
Same problem On HTC P3470
Hi All,
i have same problem with my HTC P3470
i tried about 4 or 5 other applications that same result appears. some of them needed .net framework. but the peroblem still remain after installing .net farmework. i think it's become a dream to shutdown our wm6 via screen tap

Given that you'd normally need to press the power button to get it out of powersaving mode before doing any screen tapping anyway, other than the fact shutting the device down takes 5 seconds more, I don't see any advantage to having a fully screen tap method of powering off. In fact, to the contrary, it may result in unwanted accidental shutdowns eg when putting the device in pockets etc when the screen may accidentally be touched/tapped in the wrong place if not put into powersaving mode first.
Install 888PowerOff it will put a shortcut that you can place where you want in the start menu etc, still asks for verification but still faster than power button
Maybe you should just hire someone to do the work for you. Powering the phone off by holding a button is very hard work.
Lots of reasons
I'ts not as if you can't set the attribute of the shortcut to hidden and call it, to schedule it, or in my case, I'd like to use PhoneAlarm to trigger it when to power gets down to 10%, still allowing me to make outbound calls, that is if I'm not obsessively watching my battery while people I don't really need to talk to are calling me.
Not to mention with WinMo, I'm always telling people 'just hang on.' I can't even power down as fast as they can.
If I assign it to a long-press on another hardware key I can just reach in my pocket and press; I don't have to dig the thing out, hold the button for what on my unit comes out to 7 sec, tap, and put the thing back. Discretion is always nice.
I'd really prefer to skip the whole PowerOffWarning.exe/ShutXP bit, and just power off. My phone is not my heart, it can stop for a few minues once in a while.
Power off HTC TyTN II by software
I have the same question with my HTC TyTn II and have researched it for a few weeks now; even contacted HTC technical support - but they did not an answer. I did find a software that will fully power down the device (XdaShutdown).
But since I have had other HTC smartphones, Blacberry devices, etc., that would definitely fully power-off (not just the screen or go into Standby mode, etc.) - what I was really looking for is an app that would power-off the device at a scheduled time. Used to have a program called CTScheduler which did this on my former Smartphone (WM5). But this app does not seem to work on WM6.
If most Smartphones and Blackberry devices can do (either by 3rd party app or within the device itself...) scheduled power-off-- why can't some of these HTC Pocket PC devices be made to do same?

CTscheduler is still out there, but now for wm6.1 and 6.5

does everything you said and now more
Installed Software (search button used):
- Changed ROM from Vodafone on HTC (german)
- Kaiser tweak
- Trackme software
- Compact SQL Server (from trackme link)
- Compact Framework (from trackme link)
Problem: If I manual turn off the TYTN II I only can turn him on with the reset button. The same happens with or without the option of automatically turning off the device after x minutes.
Maybe I oversaw a setting, or it is a software / hardware bug ?
Solutions are very welcome due this really annoying issue.
Thanks in advance.
Problem still occuring.
Any ideas?
hard reset?
A hard reset did not work.
After reinstallind the whole software the problem occured again.
Anyone else having any ideas?
I don't think I am the only one who have this issue.
You say manual "turn off". Do you mean actual turn off or simply into standby?
It occurs If I push the right button and if the automated standby comes up after x minutes.
Ok. So you aren't actually turning it off. You are putting it into standby and then it won't come back from standby when you push the power button again?
1) Put it into standby
2) After ten seconds, push the power buttom once quickly
3) WAIT. Some devices are slow to wake if there is lots going on in the background and you have loads of today plug ins etc
If that doesn't work, then uninstall any software you have added.
Thanks for the hints.
I'll try and give some feedback.
Feedback: Looks the Compact Framework 3.5 is not working properly. It eats up the whole battery power within a few hours.
Look the 'sleep of death' thread...
Try to change the USB to PC connexion...
How do I exactly change the USB to PC connection ?
Any thread link to "sleep of death" ?
Thanks in advance.
Is there a way to keep the device (Tytn II) from going automaitcaly into standby mode when the GPS is activated regardless of the power setting?
On my older Trinity, whenever I used the GPS, the device would not go into standby mode no matter what the power setting was, and hence GPS will remain working. In other words, even when in power setting i had power off after 1 minute, if the GPS was being used (like Destinator) the Trinity was kept awake until I shut down Destiniator. But this is not the case with the Kaiser. Even if I have Destinator running, the devise will still go to sleep mode.
I use tomtom and when running it won't let the Kaiser go into standby automatically.
I do not know how to do it - but I know it MUST be possible because when TomTom is running on my phone it stays in live bright screen mode.

I use AE Button plus, which is a button remapping program, but has additional functions that can be assigned to hardware buttons. Check it out. I have set up the PTT button that when I click it twice, it disables the auto-standby function but then the backlight doesn't turn off, so when I click it three times it turns off the backlight to save power. Works like a champ.
I too am wondering the same thing. When using iGo, my phone goes to sleep. Is there a reg setting, or an exception lit I can add iGo to, in order to keep phone awake?
I know it must be possible, since several other programs work that way. For example phone does not go to sleep when using IE, or Core Player etc.
I am also using S2U2, and have added iGo to the exception list there, but that only stopped the phone from locking when it goes to sleep.
Please help.
Thanks!
I solved my problem (actualy workaround) by using MortScript (Keepalive script).

Hi:
Thanks so much for your reply.
Hi all, i'm just after some help with AE button on my Diamond. I've done all the usual searches but to no avail.
I've installed AEB and setup 'long press of volume up' to turn display on/off. This is so i can save battery life when i'm using gps software without losing my current gps positions.
The problem i have is that the volume up button i've configured only works on the main today screen. Once i'm into a program it does not work.
Have i done something wrong maybe or is it just not possible?
Thanks friends.
Anyone?
How can I make AEButton work other than just in today screen?
- sorry i am desperate!
The new tilt sensor program GSEN has an option to turn the screen off when you put the phone face down. It'll solve your problem...
First, I have searched, but did not find anything. I am running NotATreoFan's Beta 1 of his first ROM. It has been running very well and I really don't plan to change anytime soon. However, I noticed today that it won't power down/sleep on its own (I normally press the power button before putting it in my pocket). It is set for a one minute power down.
Apps installed:
Total Commander
TomTom 6
Syware Visual CE
TodayAgenda
TaskManager
Kaiser OpenGL Drivers
GPS Test
Flash Player
Batti
Office 6.1 including OneNote
Advanced Configuration
GSPlayer
.NET 3.5
Isilo
HomeScreenPlus
PPCProfilesPro
claunch
Icontact
DxC Iphone Dialer
LVM Second Clock
Opera Mini
Wow, I didn't realize how much I have installed. Before I start yanking, any thoughts about which one might be causing trouble? I doubt it is the ROM.
Thanks!
What happens when you press the power button to try to make it sleep?
I had a problem with a new kaiser that i got where when i tried to put it to sleep using the power button it would jus turn itself back on. If I let it goto sleep on its own it worked fine.

Power button works fine, which is why I haven't noticed it before. I usually manually power it off, but today I left it sitting and it was on, never turning off.

Resolved. It appears to be a home screen clock plugin that I was using.
