File Explorer Extension

Very useful File Explorer Extension

Requirements: PC2003, WM5, WM6

Overview:
When it comes to file operations, the default Windows Mobile File Explorer is quite limited. This is a freeware by Hou Ming that addresses all the missing features that should have been included in the Windows Mobile stock File Explorer.

Here are some of the fantastic “must have” features it adds:

# Resizable header for easy sorting by file name, date of last modification or size
# Tree view of folders; you can now jump easily from a location to any other on your device in one step
# Show extension option for those who ask themselves the same question I do: “What type of file is this?”
# Icon view that enables the display of files as icons similar to your desktop computer
# Real time image preview; now you don’t have to open several files in order to send the one you desire
# Open with Program allows you easily select an application to open the specific file you select (useful in case you don’t have the correct file associations or when you want Album app to open your images instead of Windows default picture viewer.)
# File property context menu for easy renaming and attribute changing
# Open all executables with Parameters in case you need a special parameter when launching an application
# Sending shortcut to Programs for instant shortcut creation of executables placed directly in Programs folder in Start Menu.

Sunscape tries to allow the user to fully configure the screen locker down to the very last details as well as maintaining a small memory footprint and trying to be as compatible as possible with very many different devices.

- WM5/6
- Compact Framework 2.0
- Install to DEVICE and NOT storage card (thanks pilgrim011)

[Features]
- fully configurable interface (including graphics etc...) based on a documented XML file.
- support for time, date, appointments.
- support for weather.
- support for battery, messages, notes, emails etc...
- uses pressure-points instead of "slide to unlock", future releases will include other nifty ways to unlock based on touch.

and... many more...

uTrack

uTrack can be used to track mobile devices in a passive, non-intruisive way.

It can be configured to publish the location of a Windows Mobile powered device to any website or webservice. The only requirement is that HTTP GET request can be used.

The different items of information that can be published are:

* Longitude / Latitude
* DeviceID
* Date and time

When run, the application only shows a notifyicon and stays dormant until another application uses the GPS Intermediate driver. When the GPS device gets a fix on the position, uTrack will publish this information to the URL specified in the configuration window.

uTrack features:

* A lightweight Windows Mobile client whose sole purpose is to monitor and publish GPS coordinates.
* Four different parameters can be used in the GET request: Longitude, Latitude, Date/Time and the deviceID.
* The request can be tested using a easy to use option which opens the configured URL The uTrack settings screen in the default browser.
* A non-intrusive notify-icon to indicate GPS monitoring is active.
* Both support for Windows Mobile 5 and Windows Mobile 6 powered devices.
* Auto start monitoring on device reset.
* GPS Intermediate Driver support.

Large Text Scroller

You type in text then hit the button and that text will scroll across the whole screen infinitely.

I made it in flash and you type in your text, up to 15 characters then hit the button and there ya go. Scrolling. Large. Just copy the .exe to your device/card and run. It works good on Omap devices but better on 400mhz+ devices. I currently don't have a SmartPhone so if anyone could try it on smartphone and let me know if it works that would be great. I'm not sure if you can get into the text box without tapping it.

GSlide

A finger friendly file explorer

GSlide, "Generic Slide", is simply a explorer with a kinetic slider interface.

Right now it explores only files and folders, but pretty soon you will be able to iterate xml. Or any structured data actually.

For now it is only a viewer, so it wont mess around with files and should be harmless. Of course, as usual, no guarantees of any sort are given ;)

To install just drop the folder into your Programs folder. It works wherever you place it, but I have set up some example shortcuts with command line arguments which assume that you put it at the default location.

GSlide

UnlimitedCallLog

The bottom-left button will enable/disable the program, and the top four small buttons filter the call log as: All, Answered, Outgoing, Missed.

Cycle Profile

Cycle through "On", "Vibrate" and "Mute"

I made a "quick and dirty" utility to cycle the sound profile every time it runs. I did it to use it with my rlToday setup.

To install it: unzip and put the .exe anywhere on your device.

To use it: just run it. No GUI, no settings...

The program runs, checks the current sound profile and activates the "next" one. The sequence is: "On" >>> "Vibrate" >>> "Mute" >> "On"...

Dual SIM Today

Here it is a Today Screen plugin that allows the display of the IMSI code (or a custom label for it) of the current active Sim. Works for all dual Sim solutions allowing to always know which is the SIM in use.

From my personal experience I prefer the use of simple power on-off solutions because they consume the same amount of energy of a normal SIM. The digital solutions provide a nice STK application but the resource consumption is not acceptable (especially for HTC Hermes). This plugin solve the main problem of the simple power on off Dual Sim holders: knowing which is the active Sim.

Configure your custom labels in the Today option dialog for the specific item (Dual SIM Today).
