Thanks, ive also been looking for something like this so i can use it to count down my time left on my Tacho.
Problem is, when its done, the alarm is too quiet. Would you be able to ask on the forum if he could make a configurable alarm sound so i could choose my own sound for example.
Also if you could make the count down time in full screen would be great.
Obviously all this is if you get the chance. Dont worry if you dont
Thanks for posting though, still useful.

I found if you hold stylus on the white part you get a menu that pops up. It allows you to set the stopwatch color (of the digits) and change the alarm. Those it seems the alarm sound has to be a windows media format. the only other option I had from my device was the dogbark file.
It limited but something.

Any chance on getting a screenshot of this app at all?

just thought I'd mention, it's a nice looking App, but doesn't wake the device from standby, works well though.

Thank you very much.

StopTime
I'll put a shout out for StopTime!
http://home.comcast.net/~jonsachs/#StopTime 2.0
It's free, and you can use any sound you want for the alarm (I think)

Has anyone used this successfully? DOES IT wake up the device when it is off?
Finally, the first post leads to a page that doesn't exist. Is this the same as Jonathan Sach's StopTime?

SPBTime is great!!! Try it.

Has anybody used this program with windows mobile 6.1? Has anybody gotten it to work even when phone goes to sleep? Thanks in advance.

Me. I use WM 6.1 with this soft flawlessly. It keeps counting properly after Off-on or Sleep-on.

I'm looking for something where I can configure an alarm every 30 seconds or so. Anyone know of anything, I want functionality similar to the stopwatch Timer '08 for my Mac.

problems with Stopwatch
I downloaded the Stopwatch cab to my Fuze and found several problems.
1. It only goes to the second. Not much use for timing laps on the track, etc.
2. The Start/Stop button was partially covered by the Reset button.

Cool apps. Thanks!

has anyone seen something similar that also sits on the today screen?
I'm off on a holiday in 3 months and want to know how many days till I go just by looking at my phone (without opening a program hence the today screen) I have searched the forums for a few weeks but haven't found anything yet (but that could just be my searching technique!!).
ideally to fit WVGA screen size
cheers
Update:
I also posted here..

[REQ]Flashing Light Around The Navigation Control?!

Well lets get to the point r8 away
I used to have the great Asus P525 before i switched to AT&T Fuze a month ago. Now, one of the things that i really miss since i changed my phone is the tiny little LED that used to flash when the phone/WiFi/Bluetooth was on. Which actually helped me big time to find my phone in the dark!
So basically im just wondering if any of u guys can kindly write a simple prog that trigers the .EXE file for the circular light around the navigation control (that gets executed once the phone is charging/fully charged) and make it run at specific intervals (i.e. every 3 or 5 seconds) when, for instance, the phone is on (a.k.a the flight mode is off).
Or at the very least, do the same thing with the camera flash on the back (the circular light around the navigation control is more preferable though ).
So..yea!
Im Looking forward to hear back from you guys

or is it possible to do the same thing through registry instead of using an application?

Really good idea!
Hmmm.... Maybe need special SDK for developing.

not the best way, but might work..
add an email account to your phone and send it an email. don't read it.
Text should work too.

No you cant get that to flash or light up.....but its definately feasible to get the circular LED around the navigation control to flash.

Anybody?!......

any help would be greatly appreciated....

Bluetooth n GPS flashing light
What would be nice is if the light would flash like it is charging while you are using, receiving/sending a bluetooth transfer as well as flashing when your GPS is on so you know you left it on....Would also be cool if the speed of the flashing would increase depending on the percentage of your transfer or speed of your signal for bluetooth or GPS or if you could get the leds to chase in a circle...not sure if that is possible or if having it for both GPS and bluetooth would cause problems but would be cool . (A nice app to bundle all these ideas in this group togeather would really be sweet maybe even get it to flash for other notifications.)

For crosslinking:

From what I understand, we don't have software control of that light yet. even if you turn it off for email notifications and such it will still flash

I can't confirm that! I had to turn on the notification for SMS/eMails manually on my HTC Raphael. Before the LED circle just would not light up at all.

Yeah that's all I've bothered to put since I last wiped and even GPRS seems to work somehow.

Wow, you're right, it works! Thanks for the help, this is killer deal compared to my old tariff
Just one question, does "Virgin" appear on your lock screen? It doesn't appear on the lockscreen or notification bar but it shows up in Settings > About > Status. That's on Cyanogen Mod 4.17, on Hero it shows up as normal. When using an O2 SIM the carrier shows up as normal on Cyanogen 4.17.

[Q] Skype?

anyone know how to get skype to work on the rooted nook color. when i open the app the nookbar blocks the buttons to continue. is there a work around for this?

really? does no one know?

Does it do it in landscape mode too?
Just curious, why do you want to run Skype on a device that has neither a microphone or a camera?

Because we can?

Once we get Bluetooth working in Nookie Froyo, this will become a relevant question.
I'm facing the same problem, even with the unlocked version of Skype, where I get the welcome screen, but nowhere to enter my credentials.

For now you can use IM+ to instant message people using your skype account, but it would be great to get skype itself working...

Are you running Nookie Froyo? or AutoNooter??? Just curious. I'll give it a shot on Nookie Froyo and see what happens. I agree though, probably worthwhile to start taking a look at this in the likelihood that bluetooth will be figured out soon.

im running auto-nooter and neither orientation works. I want to have skype to use it as a chat app because i want to use my NC as my school computer and that wont work unless i can kill time in class chatting on skype. plus i dont want to use my skype credentials on a third party app.

In my experience there is just enough of the button above the status bar to be able to press it.
And although we have no mic, you can still use it for chat.

I 2nd the use case of using skype as a messaging tool. It will be nice if/when I can get a bluetooth mic/headset and use it for calls as well, but for the time being I use skype regularly as an IM tool with individuals I work with around the globe.
@acomiskey
When I open skype, I can't see the button when the tablet is tilted either vertical or horizontal. Can you elaborate? Do I need to set my launcher to be full screen?

[Apk]How to replace HTC's Car Panel with Google's Car Home

This is a quick guide to show you how you can launch Google's Car home app and navigation instead of HTC's horizontally challenged car panel. While its simple enough to setup car home is not available on the market place for the DHD.
First install Google's car home app
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/17102005/com.google.android.carhome-1.apk
Open car panel from you apps or launch it from your HTC Locations Widget

}
Now choose Google's Car home
Enjoy

What launcher are you using? I quite like your homescreen and notification bar.
I presume DHD=Desire HD. I've got a Desire running 2.2 w/ Sense and I can't find/don't seem to have this My Locations/Car Panel app/widget.
-also, noticed you're from NZ, goodonya.

Very nice tip!!!
Now I can switch to another gps software on the panel and it can be in landscape!!!

I'm running Revolution HD by Mike1986 with Vistagamer's theme Desolution and couldn't be happier, Girlfriend wasn't so impressed with the background though
Edit: Yes DHD = Desire HD

And I found out a guy who posted the last version of CarHome, v2.2.1.4
http://www.mediafire.com/?8fkv48e9lpvx8d8
I already install it and it works fine

thanx for this !

very nice
