Bluetooth status indicators and WIFI Toggle

Hi all,
I often have seen in this forum screenshots of two things I cannot find for the life of me:
1.- A little headset icon by the Start button (I assume that one comes on when your BT headset is paired and active),
2.- And a Wi-Fi toggle app (I have tried VJVolubilis, but it doesn't work on a Wizard yet)
Any help and pointers would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!

Any takers? Please?

try vijay555's website http://www.vijay555.com/
He as done some great work!

VJVolubilis works on my wizard but you have to turn it on once first through the comm manager. Then it turns it on and off fine after that.

holmanm: thanks for that. I didn't know it did even that much
Unfortunately, until I get a Wizard to play with, any non HTC Universal support is purely hypothetical (ie crap).

The only issue i've had with VJVolubilis is the toggle wifi, you can get round this by putting two icons on the task bar for on and off, and assigning both function to the voice recording button (it has press and hold functions).
As for the bt icon I've not seen it on my wizard I used to see it on my magician, but it only appears in the phone app on the wizard, if you find out how to make it appear let us know!

Still no workie for me :-( It doesn't give an error if I turn WIFI on first, but it doesn't do anything either.
Many thanks to all responders, and more suggestions are of course very welcome!

This is exactly what I am looking for (As far as the BT headset icon):

Is this icon part of phoneAlarm, or Vijay's skin?

That icon comes up for me when my A2DP headset is paired... in other words I don't think what you've seen is any sort of addon, just the default behavior in AKU2 when an A2DP device is connected.

I only use a mono BT headset... does this mean I am SOL?

Yom: the bluetooth headset icon - I can't remember where I got it from, I think I made that one myself... The rest are basically stock icons screengrabbed or ripped from the OS dlls, although I used artistic license to "improve" them slightly.
All the icons are available but jumbled higgledy piggledy in my PhoneAlarm skin here (near the end of the first, loooong post):

Yo! Dude! You ROCK! Thanks!
Any updates on making VJVolubilis work with WiFi on the Wizard?
Thanks again!

Backlight doesnt turn off

I cant say how often and because of what but sometimes backlight/display doesnt turn off. „Display time out on battery“ and „Display time out on AC“ resets to „30 seconds“ and the display keeps shining.
I set this
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
And after some time, two values are automatically set to 30 seconds.

I have the same problem. My backlight only turns off when i put keylock on :-(
Hope someone has a solution.

Hmm, my Vox use to do this, but not happening on my UK S730.

Yo!
I read somewhere before about the S710 (think it was that phone, long time ago I read this) having the same problem, if I dont remeber wrong is somehow was realated to Tom tom, the GPS software... dont take my word for it but that is what first came to my mind, hope it helps you somehow!
//Belaial

Yes, I had similar problems with S710 too but I read it was corrupted because of TCPMP. I have fixed this S710 backlight problem editing some registry values but on S730 I cant find these values.
martinbr: Do you have installed TomTom? I guess we could make a list of our installed applications and compare...

I do not have TomTom.
I have GPS utility, resco explorer. resco photo, agenda one, Gmaps, facade, SOTI pocket controller, pool rebel, SPB wallet and thunder flashlight.

Well, so the matches are Resco Explorer, Resco Photo Viewer ang Google Maps. But these are pretty common applications...

Yeah as I said, not 100% I remeber correctly

Did this always occur? if not, when did it start? do you all have anything running? Does this occur after a soft reset (reseating the battery) before you start any programs? Are there programs starting via the Startup folder? Have you tried a hard reset?
Did you try to disable COM plugins? is your spreadsheet linked to an unavailable source? is the domain controller available? Is the backup intelligent transfer service started? have you disabled the windows firewall?
Thank you, come again.

Well i tried to soft reset it, and it still does not turn of the screen.

The registry key for the s710 was:
HKLM/ComtrolPanel/Power/Display
Standard the key doesn't exist on the s710. Applications like TomTom use the key and create it when it isn't there. After closing the application the value is 0. The sollution is to change the value from 0 to something like 30 seconds.
I don's own a Wings (yet), so i don's know if the key exists om the Wings...

There isnt such key on my Wings.

Had the issue on S710 and it reappears on my brand new S730 with Tomtom mobile 5.2 (even if backlight setting in TT is only to stay on when battery is charging) but the same utility spWZTool is working (a bit of a pain to have to launch it after Tomtom, if you have a better option).
Found the key HKCU//Control Panel/Power/Display with value of 3145779 and putting it back to 30 works !!!

Srs Wow Hd

I tried to search the forum with "SRS WOW HD", "SRS WOW" & "SRS" but no result, so I'm posting this as a new thread.
Anyone try this app before?
It was claimed to work on TyTN II.
Found HERE.
Download from RapidShare.
UPDATE:
Restart you device after installation, or else you'll see this:
"There is no WOW HD driver loaded. The control panel will now exit"
P/S: Sorry xmoo, forgot to mention this, but glad that you figured it out.

Nice, gonna try this.
EDIT!!!
IT DOES NOT WORK!! "There is no WOW HD driver loaded. The control panel will now exit"

HMZ IT DOES WORK!! But the speaker does not sound better. But headphones does sound better.
Ooh yeah, rr 2 times

Funny, I installed that app a couple of days ago, but noted no difference at all when activating the control... Uhm, maybe a othorhinolaryngologist visit is urgent right now...

It does'nt work over BT only through the wired headphones and speaker. Also it works only with WM player and HTC's audio player

but with this, it works really great.
the differ between now and befor srs wow is awsome.
i have srs also on my mp3-hdd-player but this software gives more option to find the best sound.
i think a must have for everyone
bye andré

it works on my HTC Touch Pro, the sound is great and it plays really loud and i love it, but there's a problem. There doesn't seem to be a way to lower the volume or mute it. My phone is already on mute but the music still plays really loud. I tried to disable it by going to settings --> srs wow hd and disabling it but it still plays really loud, even though it's disabled and my phone is on mute!!
How do i fix this?

I had preciesly the same problem also on my xperia x1. Although the sound is great, but now i can't do anything with the volume

FIXED:
1. go to your "windows", search the file with "wavedev" as part of name.
2. copy the whole name.
3. go to [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\BuiltIn\WaveDev] and set the "OldDriver" to STEP 2.
4. reboot.
DONE in my HD2_TMOUS

i'M CONFUSED - does this mean CREATE A new STRING with name "OldDriver" and value "wavedev.dll" or...??
I don't see a value called OldDriver
Thanks
by step2 I assume that you mean wavedev.dll, thanks

HTC WM6.1 : Audio Manager corrupted display

Hi folks
I'm having a problem with HTC's Audio Manager. When starting it up I get a corrupted display (see attachment).
The 'Player' menu item is also not displaying anything, so I take it the application has crashed
Has anyone else experienced this or better yet know a solution?
Thanks in advance

Yep. The same thing happend to me to when I activated the Music tab on Today screen and maximized the Audio Manager from running task list. When I switched from portrait to landscape it cleared up. Reboot didn't make a difference. I ended up deactivating the "Music" tab.
When I just start Audio Manager from "Programs" it's not messed up.

Thanks! Switching display modes does fix the display
Hopefully this will be fixed in a later version of HTC Audio Manager

Don't open audio manager through the tab and then maximize it through another program like wktask. what you have to do is click the tab again to actually open the program. that fixed it for me. I would get problems when i didn't do it that way.

I think I found a way around it ever corrupting. I had the same problem but this last time I installed the app (I've been flashing ROMs... a lot! ), the first thing I did was open audio mgr through the Programs icon, created a Playlist and played some music.
I then closed it and went to the Today music "tab" and when I click it once, it automatically loads the list and displays the first song in the little window; if I click again (with a song name displayed) it pops open the full Audio Mgr app without any corruption.
Just my two cents, hope this works for you.

Sounds completely unlogical... so reasonable enough for an MS product
Next time I flash, I'm definetly gonna try it out.

Install the seperate today plugin
Try installing the seperate today plugin. You don't need it enabled but I think installing it will help with the problem.

[APP] Membrain Recorder-[R]-04/04/11-[V]-0.9 (BETA)

Name: Membrain Audio Recorder
Description:
Hey guys, this is my first foray into Windows Phone app development. This program originally debuted at the PennApps Mobile competition at the University of Pennsylvania. A lot of people thought it was a very neat concept so my partner and I decided to put it on the marketplace in case anybody finds it useful.
Membrain is a “smart” audio recorder application which only saves what you want it to hear. It offers two main advantages to the competition: the addition of a "set and forget" mode, and the ability to sync your files to your Dropbox account.
Membrain works by taking calibrating to the ambient audio level and only recording when it detects noise above that threshold. It’s perfect for times when you don’t have the ability to repeatedly press the stop and record button. For example, just set it before you go to bed, place your phone next to your bed, and listen to anything you said in your sleep the next morning!
Even better: if you ever need to move these recordings from off your phone, Dropbox integration is provided for uploading your recordings.
To use it, simply press the "listen" button (the ear) and let the program calibrate to the current noise level. Then, press the listen button again and you're good to go. There will be a red circle next to the volume bar if the noise level goes above the threshold to indicate that the app is currently recording. Hit stop when you want the listening to end. If you upload a file and don't find it in your dropbox account folder, try pressing the button again (we're currently working to track down why this happens).

Thanks for the heads up bennyj71. The link was working last night but it seems like there's something going on with our app listing in the marketplace. I'm going to see if I can fix it, but in the meantime, if you search "membrain app" on your phone, it should be the first result that comes up.

I got it. Tried the app last night. Doesn't seem to work under lock screen though.

Thanks for the feedback benny. I just tested the app and unfortunately I can't seem to reproduce your issue. If it's not too much trouble, could you describe how you noticed the recording under the lock screen wasn't working, and what kind of phone do you have?
Thank you!

I started recording. The screen timed out. I kept talking. Once I finished I turned on the screen. When I replayed the recording, nothing I said when the screen timed out was recorded. I've tried three other recording apps. They had this issue as well, it was fixed in various updates.

Thanks so much for the info! Yep, I had the exact same issue when I let the screen timeout. In addition to fixing the dropbox indicator, I'll tackle this problem for the next update. In the meantime, if you manually hit the "lock screen" button, the recorder should stay active.
(PS: Sorry for the late response, was at a hackathon this weekend and didn't have much time to check the boards.)

No Problem. I'll try the lock screen.

Hmm like the idea ... any app like this for WM 6.5.x?

Love the look of this app, shame i use android...

Downloaded this yesterday. Recorded fine, but can't upload to DropBox. The app says it's logged in to DropBox OK. When uploading, the progress bar flashes up very briefly and nothing appears in DropBox. Checked in the DropBox site and Membrain is appearing as a fully authorised app. Any ideas?!?!
Could do with getting this file off the phone somehow :s
