3G / Wifi status 'LED' on title bar - Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps

Hi there,
I'm looking for a little bit of software that can sit next to the battery status of the title bar, and flash when data is being uploaded or downloaded, maybe even with a little bar to show how much data is being sent. Seems like this would be a fairly standard thing, but I can't find anything along those lines.
Can anyone enlighten me?
Many thanks!

This idea I had long time ago. I am using BitMeter software to display actual traffic on my PC's,unfortunately there is no such app for PDA. I'll try to get informations about getting transfer data from network in eVC++ and I'll try to programm it myself.

How to remove the Icon of SPB GPRS Monitor.

Hi friends,
I was very upset since on my today screen, since always there was an Icon covering the Icon of Signal Strength. Which was really annoying? Since sometime inside the buildings you really want to know the strength of Signal….
I tried to uninstall SpB GPRS monitor from Pocket Pc, but twice failed, may be I installed this software in the Extended ROM (Cooked); rather it was giving so much problem and I needed another hard task to reinstall it again.
Now with grace of God I got the Solution.
I changed it through the amendment in registry key as by Resco Registry Editor.
Go on HK Local Machine →→
Software
→Then SpB Software house
→GPRS Monitor
→Showicon
→DWORD Date to Change it to 0 instead 1 and it worked…Thank GODAny other suggestion or negative impact it can give to my software …let's share with me…thank you..
Another way to do this would be to run SPB GPRS Monitor from Programs. Then select Tools/Options/Icon. Where you can change whether the Icon appears or not, and also where on the menu bar it appears.
May be easier than hacking the registry.

moving icon GPRS
under tools->options ->icon it is possible to move the icon to the desired position.
Thought i mentioned this , because i think you didn't know.
Thanks
oh yes..i did not find it ....and it was so easy.....thansk for reply :? :?
overlapping on today screen
Hi Guys,
I downloaded the spb gprs monitor from O2 Connect yesterday, and as soon as I installed it the today screen went bonkers! All the programs work fine, but when I go back to the today screen, it seems to be overlapping. I'm not sure if I'm sending my message across right!
The letters seem to overlap different letters, such that I cant read it.
Can you guys help?
I am very new to the XDA2s, so pls explain in detail. I tried looking at the wiki pages, but there was nothing about this problem.

Try changing the theme of your today screen - should sort out the screen corruption.
Hi
I had sent my XDA2s to O2 before i got the reply here.
i have now got it back from them, installed O2 plus and GPRS monitor (downloaded by O2 connect), and evertyhting works just fine.
They had probably done a hard reset or something. They havent changed any ROM version as am still running the old ROM versions.
Thanks anyway.

Internet Data Counter?

Is there any application for the tilt/tytn ll that can count all the KB/MB used on a data connection through 3g/wifi. And that it has a reset counter button?
I ask this because i only have a 5mb data plan and its very pricy per kb if i go over. I need something to keep track on how much i used between the monthly limit.
ThaNKs!!!
anyone? ;p
sounds like a good idea.

GPRSMonitor

You can also try HudsonMobile IP Dashboard if it suits your needs.

Go to http://www.spbsoftwarehouse.com/products/gprsmonitor/?en
Click on download (not the cab one) and you should get:-
SpbGPRSMonitor2_setup
Open this, let it do its thing and when you next sync, install the cab file to 'device'.
Pdf manual is on the site - program works well and you can set daily limits etc.
Is there an Open Source alternative? or freeware?
Freeware
I found this. Still can't get the data counter to work but it seems like he is working on it. The app seems to be mostly for prepaid calling accounts.

Please let me know if you find anything else.
Thanks

SPB GPRS Monitor came free with my O2 Stellar (and my Trion/Hermes.... and the Wizard).
It has a today plugin and you can set it to monitor a given connection (so all GPRS or just the one used for web access) and it just works. Is really quite cool (unless you get your settings wrong and your MMS is pulled down over the GPRS/Web settings and becomes chargable).
i use batterystatus to count my data and calls and SMS
none of those programs
I don't have anything in my battery status app that indicates data usage. Maybe I have a different rom. Is there a link to this software somewhere? And I have no software cd for my phone.

go to settings>Today>Items>click on Batterystatus and on the right side click options and the call and data counter are in there...just check them
still no data
Thanks for the quick reply.
When I go into the Today -items panel. There is no battery status application, only:
date, owner info, messaging,tasks,calendar, windows live, windows live search, skype, and device lock
I have a battery status on the today screen by default in the bottom right that takes me to the "power" screen.
Thoughts?

BatteryStatus is a Today plug-in - check it out here and here on xda-developers - it is great.
working
thanks guys. got that plugin working and am now tracking my data usage which is perfect as I am heading over to germany tomorrow and don't feel like getting an $800 bill like last time when AT&T overcharged me for data by $600. Now if only I could figure out how to have the phone not use 60k every time I need to check POP mail I would be set.

since i use outlook i can set it to how how big i want each email to be...
outlook and mac
I am a Mac OS X user which is sometimes a bit tough especially in this forum for testing ROM's. I finally got push email working today through a ridiculous combination of forwarding and deleting. I am now on the mail2web exchange server and am attempting to add calendar functionality via some Mac software. this should finally reduce the data usage and I do have it set tot 1k for each message. On the POP access, I think it had to communicate with my mail server a lot. Who knows?
Doesn' seem to work with HTC diamond and manila.

QuickMenu broke HTCs Task Manager

I really liked HTCs task manager, QuickMenu broke it, so I closed it, deleted it, and reset it and its still not there, do I have to re-enable it somewhere or something?
We Todd. So I needed to go into Start->Setting->Task Manager and check the buttons that weren't check heh.
I want them both to run together actually, Now i have to experiment again because it seemed like they wouldn't turn on at the same time.
I got them both working together! Now, I guess my next question is, I like the QuickMenus battery indicator with the % better then the default, crappy stock one, can I disable that one in lieu of the QuickMenu one? They both appear at the same time and I'm not sure how to get rid of the stock one in any settings.
I found this in another post, and I realize Im answering all my own questions but maybe someone else can use the info:
if you don't mind the time display instead of the battery icon, try this:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Shell]
"ShowTitleBarClock"=dword:1 (1 shows clock; 0 shows battery)
The only issue with this is that I always get a "system message alert" and when I click it, it gives me a message with battery info, which I don't need at all, I'm not sure what part of QuickMenu makes it give you think info but its not needed but I can live with it so far.

[Q] New-SMS/Email widget

Does anyone know of a good easily customisable widget that will show lost calls, recived emails/SMS`?
I have looked, but it takes time to try them all just to find out it was'nt what i wanted...
I need something that is easily skinable/or at least easy to change color/font etc
Do not need big icons, PLAIN text will suffice..
Have looked at executive assistant but it gets to... complicated..
Need it simple.. have also seen that some people use tasker to create such events/variables etc, but just seems to much of an hazzle, at least considering i flash my phone TO often
Anyone with got any tips... paid apps not a problem
eks:
Phone SMS Mail
1 3 6
See?.. just simple and plain
(Hmm.. seems the number did not correcly allign themselfs... you get the point )
I have also checked out the SMS unread count, but the icons are just to dull...
Anyone who can point me in the right direction regarding where i can find the icon.png's?

Strange icon in notifications bar.

I have a white "1" symbol in a grey box in my notification bar.
Ive had the phone for just over a week and im sure its been there the whole time.
Its not a calendar notification (colour of icon is wrong) as I havent used the calendar.
The manual for the phone doesnt list this icon at all.
An old thread elsewhere suggested it might by a telephone line indicator. I have a bog standard Virgin contract...nothing special there. So I doubt its that.
Does anyone have any ideas. Any help is greatly appreciated.
I have seen this when you have two phones with the same or cloned sim card
