Dead and Burried
I have requested that this thread be locked and used only as archive.
It has come about becuse people simply can't read and i have lost the motivation to release the next version of this tool.
I wish to that the people that did provide some feed back and could keep on topic (all be the minimal).
And excessive PMs will not be answered.
I will still drop in and maby release bug releases.
We will see how it all pans out.
Cheers
Shaun

Well done
@Shaun33
Great work. I downloaded it, not tested jet, but it will work for sure.
Thank you to fulfill the request!!!!!
wow! great work.
I already have a working cab but i wish this was around when I was trying to first make it - good work - I'm sure a lot of people will really appreciate this! Now if only we can get one to configure and edit dialing plans
First findings...
Hi Shaun33,
Thanks a lot ! It's really a great initiative from you to write (and, mainly, make it available for everybody) such a program ! I have gave it a try, and have notice some small bugs, or better put, behavings not according to what I was expecting. Here are my first findings:
1. Not properly an error. Just an improvement, perhaps: I had already a Voip provision working on my device. So, it would be nice if the application could read the provision file, and bring its contents to the screen, beforehand. So, users could make small corrections only, in case their provisions were not working properly before.
2. This seems to be a bug, though: as I have not seen my provision on the screen, as stated above, I've decided to exit the program without making any changes, for what I have tapped the soft button "Exit", many times, but the application has kept running. I've had to kill its corresponding proccess to stop it.
Hope this post might help improving your your great application further. I'll try to keep you informed.
Thanks again !
Carlos
feature request
nice and useful app. thanks.
adding "dialplan editing" feature would be great.
in fact it would make the app complete.
following post would be helpful in this :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1224031&postcount=454
Definatly, adding a dialing format editor would rock!
something along the lines of
Code:
+nn (nnnn) nnnnnn
where '+' is the international dialing code (replaced by 00)
'(' and ')' are alphanumerical characters expected
n is any numerical digit
' ' is a whitespace between other values
just to enter a simple string rather than \D{2}-\? etc...etc...
The exit button will be fixed.
How could i miss that .
The Dialplan is going to happen.
Im aiming for something like asterisk
07XXXXXXXX will match 0711111111 - 0799999999
As i said version 1.
reading the settings from the OS is a little harder then coding it... As the API is one way...
still looking
fantastic work, much appreciated
Shaun
Thanks for producing this great timesaver. Even in its V1 form it's already WAY more convenient than having to fiddle with _setup.xml, cabarc, etc.
I look forward to seeing your version that can save and load configurations and dialplans.
Thanks again

Have now worked out how to query provision files so this will be included soon. Will have a load feature (from File & Device).
Work Perfectly ! You are a boss !
Thank
Ps: if you possible to add in your soft, the region ( ex: USA) to modify automatique ipdialplan !
fantastic work, much appreciated.
Will test it with Dutty's rom
Shaun33, this simple little program is going to save a lot of people a lot of headaches. May I include this in my WM6BE ROM?
Hello,
Anyway to get the same cab that works on HTC VOX with WM6 ?

Nishant, you understand that I've never said that I would release this software if I am successful in programming it? I'm not sure that it's useful software for people to have.. But I will try to write it and see if I can do it.
Guys: I can write the balloon to show the text message, but it's going to take a little while to figure out how to do reply and delete etc. The balloon is easy though!
I'm away on holiday next week, so it might not happen until then

Ok, thanks in advance... You're the best..
thanx man! u guys are really skillful tech-man! i'm a media student...can't do anything like this...hehhehe!
Guys, I'm not going to have time to finish this off before I go on holiday I suspect: I'm working flat out on something I'll preannounce hopefully tonight - I've never worked on one piece of software for so long
If I can, I will try to knock together a small version that just shows the message text, no reply button etc, for now.
If I can get this before I go away, you can probably wait until next week for a more complete version, no?
The holiday will be a good time to read on some more advanced programming tricks!
efayes: media student makes no difference! If you knew what I did for a day job, man, it's as far from programming as you can get. Unfortunately, I just enjoy programming! And sleeping for 4hours a night :shock:

Hi Vijay...I've been meaning to learn how to do programming for pocket pc too. Can you perhaps point me in the right direction as to what tools I'll need and what language to program in and everything else? I'd greatly appreciate any pointers at all. Thanks!
Soupie
soupiejr: I'm on holiiday next week, (unforunately!), so no computer access, but I've been working on my blog between programming (which is very little free time, trust me!)
The blog will be all about my in-experiences in learning to program, hacking the PDA and other thoughts etc.
But for now, searching against my member name and programming.
For the PDA, most would probably recommend programming in .net.
You can choose your language and apply it relatively cross platform.
However, my background is as a hobby VB programmer on the PC. I had to learn to program in a lower level language to do today plugins and things for the PDA.
eg:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
For this kind of thing, I was recommended by Microsoft that C++ is best for plugins. As such, I picked up a copy of "C++ for Dummies" (!), and "Programming Microsoft Windows CE".
I suggest if you have to learn c++ (which depends on how low level your needs are, because the .net compact framework incurrs an overhead on performance & memory) then learn C++ first, before considering the niceties of the PDA. So Dummies or another good c++ book will set you off in the right direction!
V
PS forgot: if you're learning C++, you can download EVC 4 for free from microsoft. For .net, you can download Visual Studio 2005 Beta 2 from MS. If you've got MSDN access, you can download the release candidate...
vijay...i've visited ur site...
u're simply brilliant man! i'm pretty amazed and impressed by ur "home-made PPC software"....pretty thoughtful...
man, I'm so embarrassed. When I read what Maimach and you other guys are doing with decompiling the rom, my software is like something you find on your shoe
But hopefully some of it is useful from time to time
V
Thanks a lot Vijay! You're the best! I'll go with visual C++ for now. Have been hoping to learn it for a long time now, this'll give me an excuse for it.
Ever heard of Ruby? I wonder if we can use that too...

Ps. Yesterday, for the first time, I visited vijay555 site.
Very good apps !!!!
Don't think I've seen a ruby dev environment for the PPC yet.
I think you're fairly spoilt with choice with .net right now, but I guess Ruby's bound to happen soon enough!
V
i'd also like this prog/hack...any developement, vijay555?
and there are 4 small buttons (reply / call / delete / close) on the bottom of bubble - could you make them bigger?
I never got around to it, but I thought about it.
I'm hoping to release something new and related soon, and then will hopefully come back to this at some point in the not too distant future..

PRE-ALPHA RELEASE WITH ITALIAN TRANSLATION (experimental)
The preview release that was posted for download is now available with some minor improvements on the project site. This is the location you'll need for ALL future downloads of the program.
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=221052
- A hex editor is in the works for the data portions that we don't have specific editors for.
- The team is 5 people now and we're all still finding our leg (I think), work still pushes on and hopefully we'll have full support for Hermes soon and move onto the next image type.
###################################################
OPEN SOURCE - DEVELOPERS NEEDED!!
I've decided to open source this project and have created a SourceForge project for it. The SourceForge project url is http://sourceforge.net/projects/visualromstudio. Anyone who's familiar with ROM image formats, HEX editing, C# and Windows Forms. If you're interested in helping with this project please PM me with your SourceForge unix name and a description of what you can contribute.
I've managed to configure PushOK/CVSNT/WinCVS/Putty to work as a SCC plugin to VS2008 and it works very well. It took about an hour to setup, but it makes working on this through the SourceForge CVS MUCH easier. I'll gladly share this info with anyone who needs it especially if you're volunteering for the project
###################################################
PREVIEW RELEASE
This release should be considered PRE-ALPHA!!!!
This preview release is a read-only release. This release will allow opening of ROM images (nbh files) and will display the contents of them and details of the pieces that I've been able to discern so far.
There is LIMITED save functionality which will allow ONLY the saving of data FROM the ROM image. This release DOES NOT include functionality to add pieces/files back into a NBH file and save it.
I am working diligently on this application and I'm still planning on putting something out this weekend (RL willing) that will at very least allow the swapping and saving of the NB portions and the replacement of the splash images. If I get a fair amount of time in this week on it, I'm really hoping to allow adding of new files to the OS images and saving of the NBH file itself.
I appreciate, as always, any feedback you may have.
Here are the files (.Net 3.5 Framework required - Developed on Vista x64 tested on x86)
Visual ROM Studio (RAR)
Microsoft .Net Framework 3.5
###################################################
Well, this is one of my first ever posts. I’ve been an avid reader of this forum and have benefitted from many people’s hard work on different ROMs and CABs. I’ve been waiting for someone to come out with a visual ROM studio that would allow us non-perl gurus to cook our own special flavors of installable ROMs. I never could find one, so I decided to make one.
The goal here is to create a easy to use GUI allowing a person to open an NBH file and edit anything they like within the “.nb” portions of the file. This IS NOT simply a wrapper around a bunch of perl scripts that extract everything to your hard drive and does managed file browsing.
That being said, the perl scripts originally written by itsme were my base for beginning and he has been gracious enough to assist me in my transition of his perl scripts to an object oriented C# (.Net) desktop application.
Here’s the first milestone for VRS (Visual ROM Studio). It’s now able to open an NBH and list the basic image info as well as build the first level of the tree structure representing the sections of the image. Hopefully in another couple weeks I’ll be able to add additional levels and the splash image preview stuff.
If anyone has any info on reading the formats of the “.cnb/.nb” pieces for the various entries inside the DBH structure; I would welcome any and all insight or guidance that can be provided.
Thanks to itsme and pof...
1) The splash and sub splash, image editing is in place now.

2) The OS image editing is coming along. Currently reading the file system. I'll devise a cool UI for drag-n-drop file extracting and adding sometime this week.
Up next...
I think extended ROM, I was playing with that a bit the other day and realized how simlpe that structure is.
I'll keep updating this post as I reach new milestone.
I'm really gratefull that so many more senior members have been so willing to help in this project, thanks again guys!
Wow
This I predict is going to be one of the biggest tools to come out as to date.Will this do do Extended Roms as well, or should Shaps Customizer be used?

Extended ROM will be one of the last things to be done, more than likely. I'm getting the core stuff in for now. My hope is that it will eventually be able to edit all facits of an image.

Looks good, This can change the way we want roms instead of relying on cookers.Extended rom part is usually the easy anyways.Something worth mentioning, Radio editing lol like cid(spl,ipl editing).You made an alpha version yet btw?
Looks awesome, i'll keep checkin in for it. And i'm not sure if anyone can really help me with this, but I need to know all the basics of editing the ROM. Thanks!
This is SUPERB news... Finally someone is willing to make a noobkitchen
I've been looking for something like this for a long long time!!
Thanks for the efforts...
This should be a sticky!!
Thanks

I don't see a reason why it couldn't. My goal is that a final release would have been tested on at least a WM5 and WM6 (Std. & Pro.) for each phone listed on the XDA forum main page.
It's ambitious, I know, and it will take sometime.
BTW: If anyone out there is a C# developer familiar with WinForms and more specifically OO. If you'd like to help I can tear you off a chunk and this can get done even quicker.
Completely new here, and after two afternoons of reading, this is my first ray of hope
I was really disappointed when it got clear to me, that I would rely on other people to get an own customized ROM, with only those apps I need. All existing ROMs here are overloaded with applications I don't, and so is my shipped ROM...
Looking forward to see your app growing,
As I looked out for a smartphone, I always imagined customizing easy like nLite/vLite for XP/Vista, your the first one, giving me that hope back
im eagerly waiting for this release.
pre-congrates and thanx from me.
this is a very good idea, keep up the good work
dear freind
tell me please where can i get it?
with my regards
Whenever you can put something up for us to mess about with (particularly for Typhoon/Tornado), please let us kick the tires.
Wow...Looks promising

Introducing DONATE, a cool little application that lets you take donations via PayPal directly on device!
Donate is so easy to use and build, there's not a whole lot to say!
Want to see it in action?
Download from here: http://donald.modaco.com/apptodate/donate.cab
TEST OEM package (feedback please!): http://donald.modaco.com/apptodate/donate.oem.zip - remember to add your registry entries, see below!
Customising
Of course, if you are bundling this in your ROM, you want to customise the donate paypal email and the note. Well, you can! Simply create 2 string registry entries...
- HKCU\Software\MoDaCo\Donate\Alias (with your paypal email) and
- HKCU\Software\MoDaCo\Donate\Note (with your donate note)
...and it'll be picked up by the application!
Including in your ROM
To include the application in your ROM, you need to include the following files:
Donate.exe - install to a location of your choice
Programs menu shortcut - of course
donate.xml - this must be installed to \Application Data\AppToDate - see below!
AppToDate
If you are including Donate in your ROM, it is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED that you include AppToDate too (details). Why? Simply because, if the PayPal mobile site changes to break Donate, I will be able to immediately roll out a fixed version via AppToDate that your users will then pick up!
Add to that, AppToDate is damn cool anyway
Hope this app is useful, feedback welcomed and a couple of screenshots are below!
P
PS If you're asking yourself 'Why have I created this?', I just wanted to know if it'd work

Great Tool
Now to add this in! And then roll out the update to my ROM using A2D!
Added a test OEM package, please let me know if it works!
P
I didnt understand the XML in the OEM Package ??
btw i have included a2d and Donaate in my ROM
The XML is to allow Donate to update via AppToDate!
(i.e. the initflashfiles should copy it to \Application Data\AppToDate if it works, and it should appear in the apptodate menu).
Don't forget your registry entries so the app is populated with your donation email!
P
Paul, do your useful apps ever stop coming?
Again wow, im not a cook, but these small things are so useful...
What about rom2date? or is that your next venture?
Rory
ROM updating directly on the device would be just awesome, but it'd require the assistance of someone with more intricate knowledge of the workings of the SPL process to make it happen.
I guess the answer would be something like...
- Download ROM (OK, so it's big, but over WiFi or 3G/HSDPA it's feasible)
- Initiate Soft SPL pseudo bootloader
- Initiate flash via the device itself (emulating a RUU type thing)
- Sit and wait
I think someone like Olipro perhaps would need to share his wisdom as to whether it's possible. Would be awesome tho!
P
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_SDCardFlashing
This works. Other devices can do this as well I believe.
Hmmm. Assuming you WERE happy to download a 75MB file or whatever on your device, it should be possible then
You could even implement it now by packaging the NBH into a big ass CAB file?
P
Can you create another donation customization ? I can't get a paypal account in Vietnam. I suggest moneybookers.com as we don't need any card for that account
THX
Thanks from the Merlot Comp.Germany
Great app, but i reshacked the exe and replaced the icon with this one, so if you like it you may include it in future release of this software
I definately will include it in my next rom

I've tried to cook into my next rom but can't realy test it (donating to myself) but it conects and it's looking sweet and the paypal icon would also be better I think as people then would not dought what it's for.
and thanks for this app
I'll be cooking this in to my next ROM, although that may be a while coming as I have exams for a few weeks soon
@Gullum: Change the link and donate to me!!!
Nice work, will update to this icon
P
Good job Paul!
If I ever make a ROM I'll include it
Now I had another idea, why not add some functionality...?
I like writing programs and while everything (up to now) is freeware but a donation is appreciated.
I'd like to include your program to do this or a link to it..
The MyApp would fill the following registry entries:
- HKCU\Software\MoDaCo\Donate\<APPNAME>\Alias (with your paypal email) and
- HKCU\Software\MoDaCo\Donate\<APPNAME>\Note (with your donate note)
- HKCU\Software\MoDaCo\Donate\<APPNAME>\Currency (could also be helpfull, or pick the default currency of the device)
- HKCU\Software\MoDaCo\Donate\<APPNAME>\Donated (1 or 0 for yes or no)
Donate would then show a list of installed apps for which the user can donate, similar to ApptoDate
The app writers could have their app check if Donate is installed and if it isn't show a link where it can be downloaded (cab)
What do you think?
I saw a comment about adding other payment options (moneybookers.com) not sure how this works,
but mabe it can be incorperated in the "alias" entry : "paypal:[email protected]" if you decide to go that way.
(if in the above case the paypal is ommited paypal is assumed, just to make sure that the older entries will keep working)
Could work Mr_Gee, will have to check if you can specify a currency in the paypal payment form string... I think it currently picks the default currency for your account?
Moneybookers support etc., only feasible if they have a mobile payment interface?

I personally don't care for any other payment option, I only use PayPal, but
I assume there will be people who use other companies.
maybe in one of the next releases
As for the currency if it picks up this information from the paypal account
it seems Ok to me, it was just for the recipient (and sender) so they wouldn't have to calculate the amount that needs to be send..
e.g i'd like 5 euro, but someone in the UK then needs to calculate how much that would be in GBP (I assumed that GBP would be there by default)
anyway looking forward to the new version
Cinemo is an application I wrote to provide showtimes for movies in your area. It uses the KListControl (written by gingercat and modified by myself) to provide (hopefully) easy to use controls.
Update - Beta 2 Release 3
I have just finished testing the new build which features a reworked interface as well as a few more features including:
Lost some weight
Critics Scores from Yahoo Movies
User Scores from Yahoo Movies(when available)
View movies by theater
Better source for movie showtimes(Yahoo Movies)
Overall faster interface(I think)
-Release 2:
More reliable movie posters
Should not crash when showtimes are unavailable
Canadian showtimes are available but you must enter the postal code into the text box via the QWERTY or copy and paste.
-Release 3
Fixed an issue where the application would crash if Yahoo Movies had no information for a zip code.
Coming in the next update:
1. GPS Location
2. Cinemo Scoring(Vote if you liked a movie or not + See average score from other people)
3. Send showtimes via SMS/Email/MMS to contacts
And long term goals:
1. View Trailers
2. Metacritic Scores(waiting on approval from them)
The new Interface:

Looks like a great prog - does it require .NET 3x? Or is it a standalone app?
Would it possible to set "preferred" theatres? There are some theaters I would always like to see listed first.
will this only work in the states?
So I'm assuming this here is an example of the stereotype of People who call themselves 'American', but actually mean a citizen of the USA, and forgetting anything outside its borders? Or Canada if prompted by someone else.
Aside from that,
which cinemas does it work for? only sepcific chains of cinemas or all?
suggest IMDb would be a better rating if possible?
suggest a favourite cinema search?
EDIT: I just noticed that you have two threads for this app which will be a bit difficult to keep track of, also I would suggest it goes into the General forum area and not the diamond or raphael as it's not specific to either device.

It currently works only in the United States and Canada. A good way to check to see if it works for you is to visit http://movies.yahoo.com and enter your postal code. If it returns movies in your area, this application will work for you.
As to the griping that it doesn't work anywhere else...feel free to write your own app if you feel this one is beneath you.

I was simply making the point that you're reinforcing American stereotypes, and suggesting that a little more info in the first post would be helpfull. Such as saying- 'it simply reads the data from http://movies.yahoo.com and is USA only' which would be helpfull to would be users. After posting I noticed in the other thread someone asked the question - 'is it USA only?'
I have only one cinema within reasonable driving distance, they send me a weekly email. I have no use for your app. I was just trying to be helpfull by suggesting a more user friendly thread and app.
looks like a great program. i've installed it on my touch diamond but i can't bring up my on-screen keyboard to input my canadian postal code :[

If you need to get a canadian postal code into the app, I suggest writing it in notes or a text, copy it, then paste it into the box by holding the stylus on the textbox til the context menu pops up. I know its cumbersome, and I am working on a different input method...but that should do it.
An alternative method, if you are feeling adventuresome and have a text editor. You can open up "Program Files\Cinemo\Cinemo.exe.config" and edit the location in there.
I know its inconvenient for Diamond users at the moment. I hope to come up with a better solution soon.
ah! the first method was a no-go, the context menu doesnt show up for the text box. editing the config file worked fine though
UK
I like the look of this so I am moving to America, But seriously can the functionality be extended? maybe the link below could be added as a source for us folks in the UK that would like to use this.
http://uk.movies.yahoo.com/
or even http://fr.movies.yahoo.com/
Movie Description
First off I think that this is a great program. It does exactly what it should and quickly. I was hoping that you could add some sort of brief movie desription for each movie. This would be the only thing that I would like to see added. Thanks again for a great little app!
This is a GREAT app.
Quick, minor suggestions:
Some minor plot or other general info might be nice
Would love to have rotten tomatoes numbers
For some reason, it won't pull in all the theaters in my area. Is there a number limit on theaters?
Would be very cool to integrate with GPS to tell local theaters depending on location (i know this is hard)
Great contribution to winmo community!

I'm working on something similar for the UK actually. It's early days, but I'll throw up a test version when done. Unfortunately my development for today is stopping due to a small bug i'd put in meaning my pc made too many requests to Yahoo while debugging and they have banned me with a 999 error for a few hours!

That is some interesting news I am glad to hear of your development and sad to hear yahoo are pissing you off. I for one will definitely make use of your app. Roll on.
Do you have any plans to support other resolutions (QVGA, WVGA)? Looks like an awesome app as far as I can tell on my Titan. (Yeah, I know what forum I'm in )
there is a way for italians users? thanks for great application my friend.
any chance to get support for the HTC Touch? The buttons are too big and the right one isn't accessible for me.
thanks man this app looks promising... i look foreward to more updates in the future
Anyone know why this app no longer works?
HYDROS SYNC CENTER
Hello people. I have just released the Hydros Sync Center 4.5. In this version, it is completly redesigned in the code due to a major bug which was causing other problems with the program. Hopefully to those of you who had the bugs before, you won't have anymore from now on. Although the code has changed dramatically, please keep in mind that this is a free application so I do not plan on making a User Guide (also because it is quite easy to use). Below, I have listed the new hanges in this program from the previous 4.0 build. One of the main features about this is that it now includes the "delete song" feature (which may seem weird to include it at this point but it took nearly 4 hours of coding and tought to make this work the way I wanted it to). If you would like to donate to me for my hard work, please click on the link in my signature and I will gladly accept any amount
* Delete Song
*New Playlist
*New and updated code
*Delete Playlist
*New Installer
*No hassle about where to install
*Rom Updater has been changed (in code)

Asking money for a half-way app is not my kind of thing. Your message seems to me more like an advertisement than a contribution to this forum. Maybe I'm wrong, but your first statement in this thread is asking for money instead of explaining your contribution. Apologies when I'm wrong, but this is not the way I would do it.
are we going to see something this year ?

not able to install
I have an Intel Atom proc and it will not install.
edit: and windows 7 (X86) Ultimate.
on an asus eee 1000h.
it will not run on win 7
Ill look into that, but go to this site, there is a thread about it. http://www.lg-incite.com/index.php?topic=3486.0
thanks man I am downloading beta 4.7(from the other treat ) now and look if it is ok .
if it still not work i report it here .
tanks in advance.
Looks great. thanks
Did this program sync also contact, task... with outlook or just media files?
I think the 4.7 build is corrupted it is only a file and it is only 50 Mb.
in the file is a broken .msi (only half the file).
Edit: can you upload it on another place ( rapidshare,Hotfile).
thanks a bunch for the tests. I will reupload it again to another site.
I didnt even know that this thread was alive still. If you want info on Hydros sync center, please visit me own site at hydros.exofire.net. There, there is a forum and a blog, you can comment there. i would appreciate if you also send me your email so i can add you to mailing list.
thanks for looking here but I have 1 question how is the owner of the App
1:Topic Starter (kingfarmer)
2:rkrishnan2012
my name is Rohit Krishnan and i am the developer of this program. If you would like to speak to me, please visit the site at hydros.exofire.net.
I have made an account at your website end i have made a treat there
so does it only handle media or does it also sync PIM?
is it based on activesync or totally independant? 1 interesting feauture would be to sync with Thunderbird/Lightning
