[REQ] Call-Status Application - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV Themes and Apps

On Tweakers.net I found a post about a nice app for the iPhone. It shows how much minutes/text-messages you have left in your current contract period. It retrieves the information right away from the T-Mobile website as they are the only iPhone-retailer in the Netherlands.
Is an application like this also possible on the Diamond? I know it depends on the fact if the data is retrievable from the website of the operator (supposing not everybody is using T-Mobile ), but maybe some bright minds in here can take a look at it. Would be a great application I think to check your contract-status now and then.
Here’s the link to the post on Tweakers.net (Unfortunately it’s in Dutch): http://tweakers.net/nieuws/56342/t-mobile-werkt-niet-mee-aan-belstatusapplicatie-iphone.html

Something like this?
It's far from finished, but it is a start...

Howzeet
Search XDA for lcminutes it might help

i know exacly what you mean.
and no its not something like lcminutes.
its checking the realtime status of the minutes, at the site of the operator. so it depends on off the operator enables this sort of functions
i dunno if it can be done, but... i got a in-between solution for ya..
this is what i have done..
i``m dutch so, i just know this would work...
you can set the igoogle page as the homepage of youre browser. in the igooglepage you can place a widget (thats how they call such apps) called t-mobile belstatus..
then you need to go to the site of t-mobile to activate the widget...
voilia... whenever you start youre browser, you at first see you leftover minutes.
this works for me...
just keep in mind that the widget works with cookies, so dont clean them up otherwise you need to reactivate the widget again...
however, if there are pplz who can develop an standalone app it would be much better to use that instead...

Yeah, something like that is what i'm looking for. The only difference is that this program will count the minutes on its own.
If some Dutch guy knows how to retrieve the data from Hi (like it is possible from T-Mobile) please let me know.

@quark1980
I'm able to add t-mobile belstatus to iGoogle page, but not able to activate it.
Because IE doensn't log in & Opera 9.5 doens't pick up my credentials :-S
How did u do it quark1980?
Thanks in advance?
P.S. would be nice any guru or someone can create the program like for iPhone t-mobile belstatus for WM...

Tmobile settings: where can I find them

So, you hard reset your device, you do the softreset to avoid all the branding rubbish and .... your phone won't work because you don't know the password to the internet connection settings and so on.
Question is: where can I find the t-mobile settings, web and walk included?
TIA!
There is a website I found recently called Google.com . It's some kind of search engine. If you enter "t-mobile uk gprs" and hit search it comes up with loads of links. not sure if the first one helps. Try it out.

Ah-ha. You must feel like a big man now.
Plus, you're wrong, they are not that easy to find. Looking at the first links on the search string you gave, they all list the username for the t-mob connection as being 'user', whereas mine is 't-mobile'.
here it is - but they dont work on some (ch) roms,works fine on my rom with web n walk
For USA T-Mobile users, here it is:
Just in case you want to add them in manually TMobile and all the UK service providers details can be found in this post over at the 4WinMobile.com website.

How do I install from this cab file?
Not sure if it'll work on your device, but give this a go:
V
Vijay, maybe you want to rename the file to GPRSsettings ?
Hi guys, thanks very much for all the replies!
Signed_UNI_TMO_Connection_112100.CAB did the trick. I didn't seem to need the other file (MMS settings). The only other file I had to fish out of the extended rom is the long_dtmf one. If you don't put that on and try to dial a number, the phone hangs on keypresses :lol:
I'll let you know if I see any other required cab I might have missed. So far the phone is behaving slightly faster - not as big of a difference as I've seen on the O2 branded ones (which hurt from all the crap 02 leaves on them).
Cheers!
Would also like to add, without all the tmobile stuff from the extended rom, my battery life has doubled. Brilliant!

if U want to not install branding rubbish, after calibrating touch screen, ppc starts installig. U've got some 3seconds to softreset(small black hole below usb connector) press it and trick is done. Other way use ext_rom unlocker (www.buzzdev.net) remove or move (move is better, there are gprs,mms and other settings in .cab files, U'll figure it out which of them U need) all **** from ext_rom and hard reset

Looking for an app - area code

One thing I miss from a "normal" cell phone is when I get a call from a person that is not in my phone it would display the state the call was originating from based on the area code. My Mogul does not do this... when a call is incoming from a non-contact, it just displays the phone number and doesn't tell me the state... are there any settings or apps that I can load that would enable this functionality?
Thanks in advance.
dgambler,
The easiest thing to do would be to Google the area code. I have Google Mobile set as my Internet Explorer home page, so it's easy to just jump to that screen, enter an area code and BAM! the first listing from the search will be the info for that Area Code!
Hope that helps!
Matt
Just go into the phone and type the # (or any # w/ that area code) and it shows you the state in the drop down box

That's what I normally do now, but was hoping to have something that would actually show the state as the call was coming in... I have customers all over the US and they aren't always in my contacts (as they are calling from a "generic" officer # that isn't there direct line)... it's just helpful knowing where the call is coming from as it is incoming.
I've been searching for the same thing, and I have ony found 1, un fortunately you have to pay for it before you can try it. If I don't find anything else soon, I hope it is worth the 14.95. I don't mind paying, but I would like to test it first

Link: Handango
Also Here: Author

Yep, that's basically what I'm looking for... it looks like it just monitors the incoming calls and does a quick lookup.
For the life of me, I can't figure out why M$ didn't include this in the phone to begin with.
You can try CityID (i remember trying it on my 6700)
Here's a link to PPCGeeks thread about it. http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=1295&highlight=cityID
It looks like there hasn't been an update to the application recently. It's worth a try though..
well before i did the 2.23 update, i used to get the state from the area code, but now after the upgrade i do not get it, any ideas would be great
I'm a little curious as to what happened to the company and program, thier website disappeared and thier program dropped off handango, the day after i bought it.

Mines woking fine, but i didn't get the update, If you could post the updated database, I'll give it a try.
BTW I wanted it to start automatically and run in the background, can't think of why they didn't put this option in the actual program.
Here's the MortScript to make that happen:
Run("\Program Files\AreaCode\AreaCode.exe")
Waitfor("Area Code", 10)
Minimize("Area Code")
Run("\Application Data\SCLPC++\SCLPC++.exe")

OMG! I can't stop laughing. A request for a development, linked to a thread here, with a title for an iphone type lock............S2U2. Oh the insanity!
LOL
cant believe! hilarious!
check
www.ac-s2.com
hey did you read his post? he says all lock apps are unattractive. Apparently the Iphone lock looks waaaaay better than S2u2. I mean the iphone lock cant be customized so its waaaay more attractive than s2u2 that can look like anything.
S2u2
Pocketshield
Throttlelock
These are all customizable therefore potentally infinitely more attractive
I posted the Wrong URL i meant to paste this http://iphone3g-india.com/password-protect-your-applications-sms-pictures-in-iphone/
and i said "App Lock" Not Device Lock
Now back to the matter Can someone help me out here with a link or developing something like that
Ok if your are looking for a program that unlocks individual programs and areas of your phone you may have to wait. In the mean time tell us what type of phone you have. You dont go to an engineer and ask him to make an engine then walk away.
Otherwise download the latest version of S2u2 it has a password mode. It locks everything but its the closest thing you will find. If you dont like the way it looks (i dont know why, since the application you linked to is hideous) you can always customize it

I have s2u2 i customized two different skins but what i am asking for is an "App Lock" So i can lock programs not a Device Lock
You can search all the App Locks for WM they are all unattractive or unstable
I have a touch pro and using the MightyROM 4.12
accidently posted i was in a rush i thought i posted the iphone app lock link but i guess i didnt.
Man are you guys for real?
I get all these reply when i make a little mistake with the URL but now no one wants to reply
Good idea, i have been looking for the same. And yes, they are all unattractive lol.
Hopefully someone will chime in to match or better yet TOP that Iphone app!
-s
edit your title to say "application locking" or "password protecting applications"
if you dont know how to do it let me know.
Do you mean something like that (see attachments)?
I'm developing these application at the moment but I've still some troubles and serious bugs to fix. I don't know when I can offer the first beta release.

bump? anyone can post a link?
I have been searching for an application locker for WM6 too, but without success. I'm running an Xperia by the way...
Palm had AppLock, Symbian S60v3 has Advanced Device Locks, so what has WM6 got? Nothing as far as I can tell.
I'm not looking for something that is bombproof, just something to deter the casual observer. I'd like to specify which applications to protect, and when someone runs one of those applications it pops up a 'please enter password' request - enter the right password and the application launches, enter the wrong password and the application doesn't launch.
Then, if I give my phone to someone to play with, I know they can't go poking around at things I don't want them to see...but they CAN see the device in action for themselves...
I've never figured out why such a thing doesn't exist - I'd have thought it would be a popular thing to want...
I knows it so easy to develop a app like this with all the new apps out no one still havent made a good enough app lock

23-Jun-2009 - Bing Mobile - Rebranded Live Search

Hey all -
Microsoft has changed the sticker on their Live Search program for Windows Mobile to match their rebranding effort. I am attaching the cab, and here's a link to the download page (which ironically still is off of live.com)
http://mobile.search.live.com/client/download_manual.aspx
And the "Locate Me" feature still does not work on my Titan.
Also, you may want to uninstall your Live Search prior to installing this. Since the name changed, it does an odd overwrite and doesn't prompt for the uninstall of your previous program.
Version 4.6.6169.0
EDIT -
Thanks to Ace10134 for the following:
Screenshots and Features list: HERE
Hah, the "Locate Me" feature doesn't work for me either. I told them about it, and they said it worked fine, what BS!
But is this the new Bing Maps? Anything actually new? Or just re-branded?
It appears to me just a simple re-branding...but I'm not positive.
Well with this Bing version, the Locate Me is working! Yay!
Not much has changed though. Just the name.
Screenshots and Features list: HERE
http://thewingster.com/bing.aspx
You could put that in the first post so people can see what it looks like, then they can see that it's basically the same.

It's in the link on my original post. Visit that page and you can find WM6, WM5 and even 2003.
I'm disappointed that they didn't really add much "bing" to it. It's still a great mobile tool (and locate me has always worked on my Kaiser), but I was hoping for a refresh to the icons to match the bing look a bit more. I also wish it worked more natively with GPS.
Hopefully more is in the pipeline.
Live Search has always worked on ym Kaiser too. So far the Bing re-skin is working fine too.
It'd be nice if they actually do release it looking like it does here though.

That will likely be more of a future release, this one I'm sure is just transitioning the Live name to Bing mostly. I'm sure MS is planning to overhaul a lot of things with Win7, WM7, Bing, ZuneHD, etc all in the works and coming out in the next year. They want to change their image to be more customer oriented and are actually listening to the customer more it seems this round.

As long as you have a data plan, and if you surf the internet and such, then this app is just like any other app. If you've used Google Maps on your phone, then that is basically what this is.

Quick questions

Hey guys, got a couple of questions quick so any help would be great =)
I know you can set people's contact card pics as their facebook profile pic, i've done this for everyone successfully, just wondering if there is any way to make it auto-update (i have unlim data plan), or a way to update everyone on one click, the only way i can update them now is to go to each individual, open their online albumn, then edit the contact card, and let the new pic download, surely there's a faster way?
Also when i'm viewing a conversation between me and another person (in text messages in HTC Sense), it takes forever to load, and i can't type a message till all of them have loaded, and there's a 160+ for each person so they all load pretty slowly, surely there's a work around so i can type whilst it loads?
Thanks in advance =)
Edit: oh there was another thing, if i browse someones facebook photos, can i set any photo as the contact card picture rather than just the profile picture?
Thanks again
Bump, anyone help please? :/

When I'm downloading updates from HTC's website, it says select location closest to you, should I select europe 1 or 2 (I'm in london)

Only more than three alarms with 3rd party alarm software (cant recommend, i dont use more than three, sorry)
As for slowdown, first off disable the flip clock when you return to home page, (search for disable manila flip) secondly if wifi is on that can make it sluggish when you wake it from sleep as it reconnects.
Hey peeps, gna post here rather than create a new thread.
I'm thinking about installing a cooked rom, i'm pretty sick of this ****ty t-mobile rom.....phone freezes up constantly, slows down etc.
Will flashing a cooked rom complete wipe everything off the phone, texts, contacts, photos, music, apps etc etc?
