MWSnap screen capture utility

MWSnap handles 5 most popular graphics formats and contains several graphical tools: a zoom, a ruler, a color picker and a window spy. It can be also used as a fast picture viewer or converter.

PhoneReboot


File Name :: PhoneReboot
Author :: mayo98
Category :: Utilities - Phone Management
Description ::
Application lets you reboot or turnoff your phone via the software instead of pressing your phone button.

I made this because I find pressing my button troublesome everytime I need to reboot it.

You can also schedule th rebooting by running either of this command :

PhoneReboot.exe /restart
PhoneReboot.exe /shutdown

(You need a scheduler (such as XBar) to take advantage of scheduling. Auto schedule may be provided on the next version, depending on the demand of the software and time I have)

Requires .NET CF 1.0
NET CF 1.0 is installed by default for devices using Smartphone 2003 and above. Smartphone 2002 needs to download and install .NET CF from Microsoft.

Provided as freeware.
DL Link. source

EDIT (Feb 6, 2006 9:06 AM)
To use PhoneReboot in xBar,

You need to make a shortcut (that allow you to put arg after an exe)
And add this shortcut in the crontab file. Ex.

Shutdown.lnk

51#"
\Storage Card\Program Files\PhoneReboot\PhoneReboot.exe" /shutdown

Thanks to Xetra for the help.
