create shortcut for wifi.

I have been trying to create a shortcut on my desktop to the Wifi Icon found in the start>Connections>Wi-Fi.
I am just unable to find the exe that does launch the app. I found the one that launches the "Wireless LAN" but the "Wi-Fi" one.
thanx.

this isnt a pocket pc phone forum?... try this: enter to connections window, press right button over the Wi-Fi icon and select send to "desktop (shortcut)"

sorry, this is for my kaiser, so thats why I posted in this forum.
With the "press right button over " did u mean right soft key ?

Download the attached file ,It's what you are looking for If you rename it to Long_Send you can also assign it to send button (that's what I did myself).

EXELENT!! 10/10

No one seems to have a good answer for this. Can you help?

How can I place a shortcut for a new text message in my HTC Home Plugin menu? I used to have this and when I did a hard reset to my phone it is now gone.
Thanks,
Chris

Start Button> Settings > Today > Items
Click the Messaging box.
This info qualifies as User Interface 101... plz don't ask us to tell you how to use your device in the future. Use the search functions of the site.

If you'd rather use a button, not an icon... try this thread my post on page 4 is just about new txts, but the whole thread is really helpful (if you want to have an icon on the screen to podge with your finger, then dont bother reading it tho)

Actually this is exactly what I don't want. Please read the question more closely so you can try and give a correct answer. I am looking to have one of the 6 icons be a blank text icon. I have had it before so I know it can be done.
Thanks

I dont use the HTC plugin... so i cant give explicit instructions, however - if you can add a shortcut (not an exe unless you can edit the command line) try the link in my previous post. If it doesn't help then i'm afarid i cant help as i've decided that 1 hardware button is better than podging the screen! (although the link will help if you want to add the podge to something like resco today - i'm assuming HTC today is similar.....)

cjk5wf, you can create the shortcut to tmail with the following parameters :
"\Windows\tmail.exe" -service "SMS" -to "" -body" ""

Not sure if it's the same thing, but when you mean VNC, do you mean to connect to your computer and control? If so then there already is a VNC server app

Brandon, this might help you: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=486486

Stop filling up development posts with unintelligent questions. I hope this post will filter this thread from many more meaningless posts.

Thanks Brandon. Had been looking for this for a long time.
Just in case, others run into the same problem I did to get it working,
I first adb pushed it to /sdcard and tried changing the permissions to make it an executable. But chmod does not work on /sdcard.
Finally, I deleted the file from /sdcard and pushed it to /data/local. I was able to chmod 766 there.
Runs well now. Thanks for the keyboard mappings,
Can't yet figure out "Back", "Call" and "Hang Buttons".
Long Press works on the home screen, but not on selected elements.
Also haven't yet figured out how to scroll down a list. eg. in Astro, I can't figure out how to get context popup on a file or how to scroll down to see the next page. "Page Down" and "Down Arrow" keys don't work. The mouse scroll wheel does not work either.

This server is horribly laggy, its good for the first few seconds (with RealVNC, at least) then lags to hell.

@os2baba If your running this on HTC Magic a.k.a T-mobile G1 Back is Esc, Hang is End, but im not sure what Call is
@happyface_0 I will try to compile a new version with a faster refresh rate when i get home from school
EDIT:anybody have any idea how to compile this?

# Settings > Applications > Manage Applications > Streetview > Clear Data

thanks for the help guys......JH

Really nobody? I've tried everything sad. I just want one to clear caches with a touch of a button without getting a root only app or having to go into applications in the setting menu to access net to do this. Doesn't anyone use this app? What short cuts can you makee work?

Hey, you are not alone.....

I am having exactly the same problem. Nobody seems to care about this app or to make it work, everybody will rather download another app from market that does the same thing this app can do.
The support from the dev is also non-existing. They send you to a page that is the most basic in describing what to do with these fields, useless.
Good luck trying to reach then via email - I have confronted them that I want a refund due to the lack of support on this, but they just ignore me.
What I want is way to create the "sync now" function, but have finally given up on that too.
Either nobody with brains use this app, or those that do, only use it for basic stuff and have no intention to 'create their own' shortcuts.
If you find anything more out or get a solution, please let me know and I'll do the same.

For sync now, I just download a curvefish sync widget and tap it twice, once to disable, then once to enable sync. Starts syncing right away.

This is just some of the stuff Ive found for it.
http://developer.android.com/reference/android/content/Intent.html
in the action section of the anycut thing you type this:
android.intent.action.VIEW (This is if you wanna view something)
android.intent.action.EDIT (If you want to edit something)
android.intent.action.INSERT (If you want to insert something)
Thats all i know so far.
I made an that dials voicemail. Pretty cool.
Ok so so far this is what i got.
To make contacts shortcut:
Action: android.intent.action.VIEW
Data: content://contacts/people
Leave type blank.
To Make a Direct Call Shortcut:
Action: android.intent.action.DIAL
Data: content://contacts/people/(Here goes the number defined to the specific contact ex: For me when i put "1" after people/, it sends me straight to my dad's phone number and I can just press the call button and it will start the call)
Leave type blank
To Make a Direct Song Shortcut:
Action: android.intent.action.VIEW
Data: content://media/external/audio/media/(The same thing applies as for the Direct Call shortcut)
leave type blank
Hope this helps alittle.

nice

[Q][DEV]Remapping G button to action?

Hi guys.
I have a question. How (if it's even possible) can i assign any action to G buttonn. For example: i want to record voice thru Easy audio recorder free, just by pressing the G button, and then stop recording by pressing it again, just like with the widget. Please help, cause it's werry important for me. Thanks.
Edit: now i noticed there is similar thread, but not for specific action, only for camera or screen on/off.

Well yes, that's what i knew. It was in the other giudes and threads. I've alredy done it. But the point is, how to tell android that he have to do this and then do this...
This is question for devs, cause i dont know if it's even possible. But maybe, when a look at the lines, there are (IMO) in some of them multiple commands like
Code:
key 259 TESTMODE_UNLOCK WAKE
It's also at vole buttons, they have thiers volume functions and also wake functions (if it's enabled in system settings i think)...
I'll take a look at this and tell u what i found
Edit: Well, i found this guide -> How to Remap Hardkey Actions || Custom App Launching
Down there is some idea that should be tested, it's good for start. But (if i got it right) this metod need compiling from source, and that is over my abillities :/ ... now. Is here someone who can test it? it will b nice make this work
Sorry for my bad english
