a little help - HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I am looking for a little help if some nice person could take the time. I have been playing around with my registry and have done some cool things but alas I have gone too far and have forgotten my way. I was wondering if someone could take a screen shot or even take the time to message me the default values for HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/ControlPanel/Themes/ and then all the values in the 0 and 1 folders. Just those two folders. I have managed to take screen shots on my HD7 with a free program called Windows Phone Device Manager.
I will patiently wait for someone with the time. Thank you

Looking for a simple program

I've recently switched from a Palm TX to the Tilt, and now I'm in a fix. I have been all over the internet trying to find a simple time keeping program. I've lived by "Time Card 2" for palm OS. The Program opens with 2 large buttons, an IN and a OUT. Pressing the button logs the time, and the elapsed time, between the IN and the OUT. Of course it exports the data as a .cvs. It also keeps a running total for weeks, until you reset it. Everything that I have found for WM6 has been way too complex, and hard to use. I use this while I'm driving, so having to pull the stylis out is not a good idea.
I know this request may be a little out of line for this forum...but if anyone knows....it would be you guys!
here's what i found what sounded aproximately like what you need...

hope its what you need
Thanks Pencilcase,
PPocket Time Card 1.4.01, which was the first suggestion that you listed, I have used on my old iPaq. This program would fill my needs but....it will not run on my AT&T Tilt. I contacted the developer, no plans on a upgrade for WM6.
Thanks for the suggestion....in any case.
Hey mlpoland,
It sounds like a pretty simple program. If you give me a description of what you want, I'll try to write it for you.

Help
Dave,
That would be great. I believe that it would be a simple program to write, I just wouldn't know where to get started. Do you use Visual Basic.net? Well here are the steps:
OPEN SCREEN: Two Large Buttons (one IN and one OUT)
PRESSING EITHER BUTTON: Logs the time like using the "NOW" function in Excel
"IN" BUTTON PRESS: Logs the time, starts a record.
"OUT" BUTTON PRESS: Logs the time and IF there has been an "IN" time recorded, calculates the elapsed time.
"OUT" BUTTON PRESSED: If no "IN" Button is recorded before it, a N/A is returned.
THE RECORDED FILES: The Spread sheet can be view on a second screen, allowing the records to be edited.
DATA EXPORTED: In a .csv format, giving the Day, Time, and Elapsed Time, Plus the Total of all the Elapsed time.
A RESET CLEARS ALL RECORDS:
The Palm OS program that I've used has a couple of additional features which are not critical. It records the elapsed time is 1/10 hour format, which is nice for my use, plus it turns the Palm Off after a button press.
It would be Great if you could help me with this, it doesn' seem like a very hard program to write.....I don't even know how to start!
Thanks
Marc
Ok I have something for you..
Let me know how it works.. It's writen for .Net so the compact framework is a requirement.
Just extract the PunchClock.zip to an arbitrary directory and execute the PunchClock.exe file..
It creates a punchClock.txt file in same directory as executable.. It's in CSV format with <DateTime>,<ellapsed nr. of seconds>,...
Program error
Thanks for the help. Conceptionally, the program appears to fill the need, however it faults out after any action past the first "punch in".
The details that are reported are as follows:
PunchClock.exe
ObjectDisposedException
at
System.Windows.Forms.Control.Invoke
Helper()
System.Windows.Forms.Control.Invoke()
at
RobinsFirstWM6.SimpleTimer.startTimer()​
Hope this helps, I've typed it exactly as it appears on my screen. Thanks for helping with the requested program
Thanks again,
Marc
Ok.. on my kaiser it seems to run smooth.. but I'll look in to this..
I've read your description somewhat more and am planning a few changes that will make it more robust.
I only need time to sit down an code.. so stay tuned
Regards
Robin
Robin,
Thanks for your time and effort. I will be offline for a week...I've updated my signature with the info on my phone....maybe that will help you.
Thanks again,
Marc
I would be interesting in this as well, look forward to seeing the next version.
Simple Time Keeping Program
Folks,
It has been a week or so....so I thought I'd try to bring this thread back to life.
Thanks,

[Q] [SOLVED] Development using koush's sensor sdk

Hey, this is my first post but i've been browsing these forums ever since i got my diamond and they've been a great help. I've been trying to learn some c# so i can give back a little to this forum, I've been able to make some simple app's but recently i've been trying to use koush's sensor sdk, and i tired using a ticker to update a label with the x y and z values from the gsensor every 1 milli sec, it shows the values but there only updated like every 2-3 seconds. Is this normal or am i doing something wrong?
thanks koush and all other developers for all your hard work!
Edit: Also i realized if i use any other gsensor app at the same time like tweeter, they also slow down and update the values at the same speed.
Updating every millisecond is a bit of overkill, when you consider it will take several milliseconds for your code to change the label text, and several more for the label to paint itself. By the time it starts to paint, the label has gotten 10 more Invalidate messages, so it's basically waiting for things to settle down before painting (not really, but that's what it will look like to you).
Try setting the timer to fire every 100 milliseconds ... that should give you better results. After playing with that, you could try tweaking it down some to see how quick of a response you can get, but I would guess the message pump will start backing up again around 25 milliseconds.
Solved!
Thanks Gecko!! Solved!!

Picture items in today screen, like on my old treo?

My Tilt died under warranty and they gave me a new one. I love to keep a picture of my boys on the screen but hate the background pictures. When I first got my tilt I somehow figured out how to include a picture plugin in the foreground on the today screen items. I could kept a picture under the date and calender items.
For the life of me I cannot remember how I did it. I thought maybe I just copied everything on the registry exactly from an old treo 750 I have which had the option programed in when I bought it. It did not work. Maybe because I could not copy the plugins (DLL files) from the windows folder. Beside the set up on the window folder seems to be different.
Does anybody know how I can include a picture in the today items? A software solution prehaps?
Thanks
Start>Settings>Today>Items>uncheck HTC Home>OK>OK
Set your photo as wallpaper.
Hope that helps.
that is not what I am looking for
Thank you,
But in the background it is hard to see the the other today items because of the difference in brightness in most pictures. I am looking for a today item which I can include a picture where the other today items are above or below the picture.
What you are looking for is TodayImage. It is a Today plugin which alllows you to display one or more images.
Here are two cabs I have but I am not sure which one is the correct one. Its trial and error. I haven't used this in a long time.
Please let me know if this is what you are looking for.
There is also TodayGif which allows you to display an animated gif as a plugin on the Today screen also.

Didn't think this was possible! Nice one, I'll give it a try.....
Todaygif frooze my tilt?
Thank you very much. for the plugins. They didn't work well but the thought is appreciated.
I tired the todayimage but it didn't do a good job of fitting the picture on the screen. Then I tried todaygif, when I tried to add a new gif file it lockup and would not boot up agian. So I had to do a hard reset.
Anyone else know of another solution or plugin?
I think I might have figured out a way
I looked at my old palm treo and it has a plugin call Picture plugin. I think if I could get that on to my tilt I make the files in the registry to call it up.
When I try to copy that file off my treo it tells me
"Executable and resource file in ROM cannot be copied"
Is there another way to get that file onto my tilt?

Newb here!

Hello everyone!
Just wanted to introduce myself. Just got my first Windows Mobile phone a few weeks ago. I went with Verizon's HTC Ozone, as it was free and fit my budget perfectly.
Haven't had a whole lot of time to troubleshoot alternatives and solutions to some of my problems, figured I'd list them out in here as I browse the fourms for the answers. If anyone knows the fix for any of this off hand please let me know!
My device is running Windows Mobile 6.5. I understand the memory management on this device does not automatically close programs. This is cool for things like webpages and such that I'd like to multitask on. But when I want to close out of a page making noise, or application producing noise in the background going through all programs -) task manager -) end task can be an inconvience. Is there anyway to close programs via a short cut?
And is there any sort of alt+tab like feature to browse between programs in the memory so I don't have to explore to them to re-up the window?
Also, I've been trying to get morphgear to work as a GBA emulator. It installs and opens but I have 0 control after that. I can open a settings menu but I can't save the changes and if I hit a txt box I am stuck.
Sorry if these are noob questions, I'd look them up myself if I had the time. But I look forward to learning from these fourms and hopefully contributing in some way myself.
Thanks!

My First LiveWallpaper

So after a lot of cursing and punching my pillow, some serious reading, and a lot of googling my problems out... I FINALLY got this made and working. I ended up using some premade xml files because I couldn't get mine converted to binary and I just didn't have the patience to do it tonight.
Anyways, tt looks good on my phone and was wondering if anyone else would like to try it out and give me their thoughts. I got the images from an HD video I found on youtube. I downloaded it in HD format, and exporting about 400 frames before deciding on a set of 30.
I'm interested to see how many of you will try this out. If the general response is good enough, I'll try to make more. When you go to select the wallpaper, go into the settings for it and change the size of the animation to "Big (Default)". I can't figure out how to get it to actually be set to that, but if someone could point me in the right direction, I'd be really happy.
