T2 Remote Touch

Remote Control your PC with your Windows Mobile phone

Remote Touch has a lot of powerful features which can make controlling your PC fast and easy.

Click mode:
You can think of this mode as being in front of a PC monitor with a touch screen. Pressing on the screen is like clicking on the mouse. You can tell you are in Click mode by the Remote Touch Menu at the bottom of the screen. The text 'Scroll', 'Menu', 'Keys' and 'Overview' are all white.

There are 4 ways of interacting with your server:
Single Click: Press and release the area of interest on the screen.
Double Click: Like a mouse double click, press and release the area of interest twice in quick succession.
Right Click: Press and hold down the area of interest till the equivalent of pressing the right button of the mouse event occurs. e.g. Try pressing and holding on the Start button and watch the right click menu appear.
Drag n Drop: You can press and move the object to the area of interest on the screen. e.g. Dragging a file from one folder to another folder in Windows Explorer.

Scroll Mode:
Scroll Mode is quite a powerful way of panning around the nearby desktop screen quickly. When you press Scroll at the bottom left of the screen. It will turn Red to show it is enabled and the screen will become grey. If you press Scroll menu again, it will change color back to white and the rest of the screen will be back in color indicating you are in Click Mode. Watch the video to understand better.

There are 3 features available in Scroll Mode:

1. Panning: By dragging your finger or stylus across the screen you can pan around fast & easily.
2. Zoom in: By tapping on the area of interest you can zoom into the region you are interested.
3. Zoom out: By pressing and holding on the area of interest you can zoom out and see a larger area of the desktop surface.

Overview Mode:
When you press Overview at the bottom right of the screen. It will turn Red to show it is enabled and you can see the entire desktop screen in the center of the mobile screen. The red rectangle shows the area of the screen you were viewing in Click Mode. If you press Overview menu again, it will change color back to white and you will be back in Click Mode. Watch the Using Remote Touch to understand better.

There are two features in Overview mode:

1. Change viewport: Tapping the screen in overview mode will move the area of viewing (the red rectangle) to tapped region. When you switch back to Click Mode you will see the new selected viewport region.

2. Rescale viewport: Pressing and dragging the screen, shows a blue rectangle. This allows you to select any region of the desktop you want to see in Click Mode.

Menu Options:
Upload File - Click this menu item to upload a file from your mobile to your PC.

Send Paste - Before starting Remote Touch, copy text you want to send to your server, then click this menu item to transfer it to the server.

Setup - This menu item lets you configure your connection with the server. This is the same dialog you get the first time you run Remote Touch on your phone. You can change your download path, connect to a different server or change the quality of your connection. I'll write another feature blog on the setup dialog next.

Reset - This is a very useful feature to reset the aspect ratio to 1:1 with your desktop. So if you mobile has a 640x480 screen, after pressing this menu item you will be looking at 640x480 of your desktop screen. This is useful also when changing the orientation from landscape to desktop and to get the scaling correct.

Exit - No prizes for guessing. It quits the software. :)

Setup Dialog:
Address - This is either the IP Address (e.g. 192.168.1.1) or URL (john.smith.noip.com) of the server you want to connect to. Change this to connect to a different server (requires restarting Remote Touch again).

Port - This is the port which is the server you are connecting to is running on. The address and port is pretty common across all remote control apps.

Password - The is the password which the server uses. If you don't use a password (it's optional), the communication between the client and server isn't encrypted. I strongly suggest using a password which encrypts the communication between client and server. Also I suggest using a password different to other passwords.

Download Dir - This is the location to save files received from the server. I strongly recommend setting this to your storage card as it affects battery life and remote touch performance if you select the phone's main memory.

Speed or Quality - If you want high performance through WiFi or 3G or connect remotely using 2G, GPRS I suggest using the 'Speed' setting. It will degrade the quality of the connection but improve performance and battery life considerably. Quality setting transfers data to give the best possible visible quality for your phone. If you plan on looking at photos etc, I suggest Quality. If you are using your phone as a remote music player controller or remote while watching a movie I would use the Speed setting.

MyWeatherForecast

a small weather app for windows mobile.

I'm not yet ready to release a version as an important feature is still missing (configuring the city where you live ).

It makes use of the Google.com weather API and also downloads the images from there.

Goal is to make it as finger friendly as possible, and support multiple resolutions (currently running in VGA) while keeping it simple feature-wise.

Developing under #develop 3.0 with .net CF 2.0 and it's my first Windows Mobile app

Installation:
- Just unzip anywhere on your PPC

V0.1 beta:
- very early first release, use at your own risk!
- downloads weather data on start
- refresh by pressing the big weather icon
- customizeable only via xml settings file
- language can be changed by changing path (e.g. from .com to .de) of google URL in settings XML
- 2 settings with DE and EN languages available, just copy to the same location as the exe and rename to Settings.xml

Known issues:
- Weather icon download sometimes interrupted and icons get dl'ed only half, reason not known yet -> possible solution, delete cache
- °C / F not changed on using different language URLs, might show wrong units#
- only tested with VGA, no idea how QVGA or other resolutions will look like (the code however should adopt to the resolution)

BattLog

battery performance logging program.

Description:
A logging program to troubleshoot when and under what conditions the PPC
uses the most power. The program provides a rolling graphical display of the
latest data (Voltage, Current, and Temperaure) as well as saving additional
information into the log file. Log entries can be recorded at 1, 5, and 10 sec
intervals. New to version 0.2.1.105 is a battery Benchmark program.


Setup:

Copy the cab file to your PPC and Run

Operation:

1. The program will display the current battery status as soon as it is run.
2. To begin logging, Select Update/Log and select Logging-> Log Location and
enter the storage location for the log file. (the log file may reside
either in main memory of on a storage card. If you place the log file
on a storage card, please see the note below.
3. To start Logging, select Update/Log -> Logging -> Start
4. To Start Logging, Select Update/Log -> Logging -> Stop


What information is logged.

1. a. Date and Time
b. Is AC Charger Attached
c. Battery Voltage
d. Battery Current (Discharge)
e. Battery Temperature
f. Battery level (%)
g. Pertinent System events:
a. Active Application
b. Speaker Phone Activity
c. Phone Radio Off/On

p. Phone Call (Talking)

CAUTION!!!!!

Please note that if you select the storage card for log storage, when waking
the phone up the phone may take up to several minutes to wake up depending on
the log frequency and length of time the phone has been asleep and whether
power saving is enabled for the Storage Card. This program will continue
sampling in sleep mode so when the PPC resumes all of the data that is in the
cache will be dumped by the OS prior to waking up!


Battery Benchmark Module.

This module places the phone in a standard state (screen and backlight on,
data connection active and Bluetooth radio on and discoverable). Then performs
a 5 minute continuous data download, followed by a 20 minute telephone call.

on the test settings tab of the benchmark module, you can specify a location to
download from, It is currently set to download adobe Reader 9 (I Just looked for
A large file to download) You can also set the telephone number to call and a
keep alive number to dial periodically to keep the call active. Currently the
program is configured to call the TELLME service and dial a 3 digit code every
15 seconds to keep the call Active. TELLME times out in 10 minutes, so the
program actually make two separate 10 minute phone calls. Afterward the report
file will be saved to the location of your choosing....

Enjoy!

LongRunner

long life for your battery - radio off, email sync on

The idea is: Radio consumes not unsignificant battery power, especially when you're travelling. Sometimes you dont have to be available for calls...
LongRunner turns off the radio part and keep that for defined time interval. Then it automatically sync all POP/IMAP accounts, the On interval should be long enough to even receive SMS.

Notification Repeat Enable

Unread MMS, SMS, MISS CALL and EMAIL alert notification repeat.

Tired of third party software/program just for the repeatative notification? It's worth to spend even 1kb of memories just for the repeatative notification since windows already have it built in.

This is a little registry tweak to enable it. It will not take any memory to run it.

NOTE: THIS IS NOT MY WORK

it's pointless and battery consuming. but i love it - nir36

Currently, there are no options. It's on, or it's off!

run "Haptic Feedback" from the programs menu.

By default, it installs a shortcut to launch at startup, but if you don't like that, delete "\Windows\Startup\HapticFeedback.Startup.lnk".

If Haptic Feedback is already running, starting the link again will cause it to exit.

No external frameworks are required - pure C++
Supports MoDaCo AppToDate

Coming whenever I have enough time to implement it:
Settings - lots!
A settings application
Some features I haven't yet thought about... Suggestions anyone?

Bulambod

It is a cipher algorithm created and develop by Mitchelle V. de la Cruz.

It is not base on other cipher algorithm. It was not invented or design today but it was started on 199xs. Yes it is not the same in structure when it was first design but the main goal was to make an unbreakable cipher algorithm. The strength of Bulambod is in the secrecy of password, even programmers, hackers, geniuses or even aliens know the source code it doesn't matter. Bulambod can be design to used infinite password length. You can brute force it but its like your counting stars in the universe or counting grains of sand in all the beaches. You can use even any number systems even number systems that was not invented. Bulambod is a formula, its not difficult as you may think, its simple, its small, it has lots of good usage but beware, and a plea, warning from the author his asking and will condemn anybody who will used this code in any malicious software especially to harm the masses. All rights reserved 19xx to infinite. Anybody has no right to used this algorithm without the approval of the author.

Bulambod

Mobile Mute

MobileMute is a little program that allows you to mute/unmute phone calls via a hardware button.

It will also launch any other program of choice if a call is not in progress (that way your hardware button doesn't get wasted). I had searched for this functionality for while without much luck. So, I decided to write a quick little app to do it for me.

MobileMute

w0lf's Translator

a Windows Mobile interface to Google Translate

Wolf's Translator uses the Google Translate engine to provide translations.
It's a small program I wrote, because I find it useful to be able to translate From/To so many languages at any time and it's much easier to use on the mobile phone than the web-based version of Google Translate.


In order to run the program, .Net Compact Framework 3.5 has to be installed on the device. (if you don't have it, just search google for ".NET Compact Framework 3.5 Redistributable")
Of course, you also need an active Internet Connection.

Currently, the following languages are supported by Google Translate: Arabic, Bulgarian, Catalan, Chinese, Chinese Simplified, Chinese Traditional, Croatian, Czezh, Danish, Dutch, English, Finnish, French, German, Greek, Hebrew, Hindi, Indonesian, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Latvian, Lithuanian, Norwegian, Polish, Portuguese, Romanian, Russian, Serbian, Slovak, Slovenian, Spanish, Swedish, Tagalog, Ukrainian, Vietnamese.

Please note that the translations are not always very accurate, but if you have a text in a different language you don't know, it gives you a good idea about what it means in most of the cases.

A nice feature of Google Translate (also present in the application) is the Language Auto Detect feature: you have a text written in I don't know what language, I tell it to translate to English, for example, and it not only translates it, but also shows the language of the source text (try this by checking the Autodetect FROM Language check box).


A feature that right now is missing, but I'm planning to include in a future version is being allowed to save the favourite language pair, so when you open the program it will automatically select your favourite languages.

This program has been tested so far on HTC Touch Diamond, HTC Touch Pro (VGA) and HTC P3600(Trinity) (QVGA).

AKToggleWifi

A simple exe that just toggles the wifi on and off.

One of the most common tasks i do many times a day, is turn the wifi in my ATT Tilt on and off. For this I have to go to the Comm Mgr and toggle it on and off. I've always wanted a one tap way of doing it, and had used BatteryStatus in the past, but its icon was too small. With Manilla2D, we dont even have that option anymore, but we do have the nice big manilla launcher.

So i put together some C++ code from myself and from samples around the web, and made a simple exe that just toggles the wifi on and off. I've cabbed it up, so that it will install into \Program Files and put a shortcut in \Windows\StartMenu\Programs called AKToggleWifi.
You can now add it to the Manilla launcher and it will show up as in the attached screenshot.

You can uninstall it from the Settings\System\Remove Programs.

I havent tested it on any device except my Tilt/Kaiser running a 6.1 ROM from Sakajati (Hyperdragon/Blackstone). - akarnik

Email Scheduler

Email Scheduler is just that, an email scheduler.

You know how exchange accounts (ie ActiveSync) are able to have a daily schedule to download messages and regular POP and IMAP accounts can't (ie, stop polling at 9pm and start back up at 7am)? This fixes all that and does so without having a constantly running program to do so.

Email Scheduler

StartBar Toggle

enable or disable Start Bar i.e. Top Bar.

At first its of no use, But one example is to use it with S2U2, assign StartBarEnable.exe to run whenever the device is unlocked by editing S2U2 registry settings & it'll disable the Start Bar, Later you can enable it by running StartBarDisable.exe

StartBar Toggle

CabGen

Create .CAB configuration files for Windows Mobile

How does this work?

This page will allow you to create a self-installing .cab file with configuration settings for your windows mobile phone. What this script does is turn your wap-provisioningdoc xml code into a .cab file. This functionality is left out of Visual Studio, and all the good cab creators are not free. This is quick, free, and easy!

CabGen

MissedCallReminder

missing "missed call" and "missed sms" reminder for WM 6.

the idea here was to keep it simple. the program can vibrate and or generate a chosen sound at a set interval, to notify the user that there are missed calls or unread sms messages. it will wakeup the device if needed to give the notification.

to use:

install the cab on the device or the storage card.
launch the application and set your preferences.
click apply, the program will minimize. it is neccessary to keep the program running to have it generate new reminders.

MissedCallReminder
