I wanted a tool to get my polaris into standby while running TF3D without the need for MortScript, S2U2 and so on. So i wrote my own tool, it actually monitors powerstates like S2U2 does (thx A_C) and turns off or turns on TF3D which allows the device to go into standby.
EDIT:
Btw i forgot to thank JeckyllHavok for the idea, so ... thank you JeckyllHavok!
v1.1a
-----
- Timeouts are now configurable via register.
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Tf3dStandby]
TF3DShutdownTimeout -> Time in MS before suspend, when we shutdown TF3D.
AutoSuspendTimeout -> Time in MS after shutting down TF3D and suspending the device. (This gives TF3D some time to shutdown)
ResumeTimeout -> Timeout in MS to wait before starting TF3D after wakeup.
v1.1:
------
- Autosuspend works too now, it uses the configuration from settings->power, it disables TF3D 5 sec before suspend. Didnt test it in combination with S2U2 yet, but for now it works like it supposed to. It also uses both timeouts for suspend on AC and on battery.
v1.0 :
------
- Turns off TF3D when pressing the power button
- Turns on TF3D when pressing the power button
- Issue: for now you have to disable that the device suspends after a given time in power management, otherwise the device will hang.
Just put Tf3dStandby.exe in \Windows\Startup and soft-reset. If you want to upgrade the exe file, use dotfred's taskmanager to kill the process.
nice to see, hope you will get it completly working,
this one doesn't work on LG KS20 too. it must be because its a different device from HTC.
great....
i'ved tried it and it worked on my touch cruise
thanks for this simple,small,very useful app
for tf3d,
great idea, good job
It worked very nice to me
This works on my kaiser (with the discrepancy described)
uncheck the tf3d in today settings before
putting the tf3dstandby.exe in the
"\Windows\start up\" directory then restart
tf3dstandby.exe won't work if the tf3d in today
settings was checked
thanks man, looks like TF3D QVGA is closer to final..btw, sry for the question, but the last release was some time ago...does it work well or are there still bugs (except from the standy-bug, solved with this app) and ugly graphic issues ?
regards,
Martin

thanks. i'll try it later.
the V1.1 is worst for me on the lg ks20. it hangs my TF3D after waking up and my backlight stays dim no matter what i press but the screen is still active. the V1.0 for me is a better performer eventhough the sleep mode is not working properly.
It worked ok on my HTC polaris ;but I noticed a delay in the starting up the phone so if you got a call it will rings only after TF3D started i.e about 1 minute !

It's found there are several issues when running S2U2 on Diamond. An intermidiate fix is that:
1. Disable DirectDraw will prevent the occasional blank screen;
2. Enable NoBackLightCheck (it's only valid in v1.05 or later; create a DWORD value with name NoBackLightCheck and value 1 under \HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\A_C\S2U2; restart iLock2) will make IdleStart works again.
Known issues:
1. CallerID does not work.
2. Home key cannot be locked.
3. "S2U2 Settings" has error when it's scrolling about half the way.
UPDATE on 29 July:
A new version of S2U2 v1.10 is released at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=412418.
For optimal usage with Diamond, make sure you grab the VGA version & turn on "Don't double check Backlight" at the S2U2 Settings.
thnx A_C for the info, already try to solve it but hope you can come out a diamond version soon....by the way s2v zoom function also not able to use on diamond any solution??
Had the same problem with zooming, did not found the bugs with s2u2 yet but if you say soo... Is there a version for Daimond of s2u2 en s2v coming??
Greetz and thanx for your wonderfull applications!
thank you for yr concern. the only thing that real bother me is my diamond always answering my calls due to the pressure from the belt case. i realy hate that. i miss s2u2 soooooo much. please do something. no need of gifs or fancy clocks. only a slide to unlock and caller id that works with the diamond. please!...
"ExceptionEXE4"="cprog.exe"
"SafeMode"=dword:00700000
for callerID, if you use advanceconfig to disable the phone skin, then it works! But your diamond-style dialpad will disappear.
I just installed S2U2 on my diamond.
When my device is locked, i can access my device when i press the home key. so basically, it is not ''locked''.
any idea how to disable all hardware buttons during locked up?

I don't know why my Diamond touch screen was disable when I lock it with the new version 1.10b? Cannot slide to unlock? I've uninstall my older version, delete all the file/ reg. and install the new version. Can anyone told me what to do? Thank you so much and I love this software very much!!!
hey!
i was wondering if there is a solution how to turn on/off touchflo with one click (maybe with a link, custom app, etc.). i'm asking, because i use openvpn and it has a connection-manager which has a tray-icon in the lower right corner of my screen. when touchflo is enabled, i can't see the tray-icons. right now i am disabling it with 'start-settings-today' and then uncheck it. then i start the vpn and when i'm finished i re-enable touch-flo. not very elegant, huh? any suggestions?
cheers,
kabufzk
p.s.: i am using M-Amine 2.0 RTm SP1 German
Hi
there is no a utility as you describe but there is utility give you the ability to switch between 2 today screen and it's great and working perfect, I use it to use phonealarm, you can put the TouchFlo in one and let the try icon in other, and switch between them by a click
this utility is "SecondToday", you can fined it here
http://www.chi-tai.info/cs_wm_tools_im_cs.htm#SecondToday
thx for the hint, i'll give it a try when i have time.
kabufzk
http://www.htcspain.com/ is working on one... and gestual!
they will release it inside their rom though
they say it is not 2ndtoday, etc it enables/disables touchflo
and only 3kb ram
hope they release it soon
and that someone can make a cab too
does anyone know how i can make my TD vibrate when i missed an SMS/EMAIL/CALL
(and keep vibrating every 5 minutes or so untill i read the message)
???
I'm intersted in this too. Is it possible?
I am very interested to this. + 1!
great idea!
it is possible?
Phoneweaver can do this among other things. Google it, its not freeware thou.
SPB Phone Suite can do this!
Pocketmax PhoneAlarm as well...
I believe all of these are Today plugins, so you'll need something like SecondToday to run them.

To get this to startup on phone start, go to program files/osRemindme, create a shortcut for the exe, then cut and paste to your windows/startup folder.
For this same purpose I have been using the alarmPal for sometime now, and now also on Diamond. Apart from vibrate, you can set reminders of missed calls/sms/email, like 1 time repeat every 2 minutes for next 3 times.
Check my signature for my solution (VibraNotify under 3 utilities)
SecondToday is not needed.
I am using SPB Phonesuite and once installed it is running in background. You can manage the setting in Start -> Settings -> System -> SPB Phone Suite. In phone notification you can select reminder for unread message and missed call in every 1/5/15/30 min and notification type (sound and/or vibrate).
Just without secondtoday you cannot use other feature like photo speed dial. And I did not notice any extra battery consumption.
((I have never tried Phoneweaver and Phonealram but if they would add the programme shortcut anywhere in the windows and running in the background just like SPB Phonesuite do, then I suppose you don't need SecondToday too))
I've just switched from Phoneweaver to SPB Phonesuite. Both can be controlled without the today screen, but I preferred SPB Phonesuite as you can set it to remind you with a tone different to the normal one. Phoneweaver reminds you too but plays the same tone. Both have automatic profiles too, which work excellently.
I read alot in the Blackstone section and I guess some Blackstone owners missed this little tool :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=442426
I posted it for the X1 but since the resolution of the X1 and the Blackstone is the same..
I hope it will work on the Blackstone too
It works nicely with emulators, SKYFIRE Beta 0.85 etc etc .

A week ago I received my X1 and tried WVGA Fix (Version 1) ! It didnt work...
After some searching i found a improved Version -WVGA FIX 2- now supporting all WM 5, 6, 6.1 and WVGA devices.
This little Program virtually "cuts" the pixels bigger than VGA from your device.
Dont get scared.. This only happens as long as you run the program.
Those pixels get black and the program emulates a VGA screen.
When you choose to get back to WVGA everything is fine again
So most programms (not only emulators) will work fine on our nice WVGA screen.
I thought some people here will love this tool too.
PS:Install the cert first, then WVGA FIX2 second.
Cheers !

Tried it already, Pocket UFO runs thanks to it.
Thanks! This has allowed me to try out SkyFire...

It doesn't work for me.
It change allways the display to landscape before freezing.
Hmm, SCUMMVM ???
yup I missed that... nice, definitely allows me to run some apps that otherwise screwed up... Especially skyfire
@vincent1: yes the rotation is annoying and not required, but it does Not freeze your phone. Your display mode changes and you still see the fix app running but it's just a frozen screen, press the today hard button and you will see manila, which instantly forces the screen to rotate back to portrait, after which you got normal VGA screen (except part of manila is missing). Now you can run any vga app you like. Just switch back to the fix program to undo the res change, press home again to fix the landscape mode, etc.
@nin2thevoid
thanks mate! Yep, pressing the today hard button is the secret

NP... I use AEButton by the way and have assigned long press of the volume up button to rotate the screen clockwise (I don't always like g sensors to do this for me). This gives an instant fix to this problem as well, and it un-freezes the program instantly.

I can confrim the above and the only way to solve it is to take the battery out as the screen does not react to tap.
hi
any news about this ?
Because I'm getting the same problem
I've tried this and it doesn't work on my HD. the phone becomes unusable.
Is there any other software to enable VGA programs? I'd like to run PocketUFO again.
any good for the hd2 ?.

same thing here. seems like it started with me after I used my s9 bluetooth headset. when I used my wired set, I don't think this happened.
I have the same issue, but it doesn't have any consequences for me.
Another issue I do have with S2U2 is when I make a call via a bluetooth headset, the keypad disables and it happens often that keys are pressed while the phone is in my pocket after I made a call. Haven't found a setting that disables this either.
i tried to install it but i get the error that it is not signed and therefor not running.
i looked up everything here but there is so much on S2U2 that i dont know what to install in wath order.
-go here and download the wvga version and the language pack.
-extract the s2u2 cab file in your memory card and the correct language file.
-install the cab in your tp2 (not in the memory card), rename the language file (i.e. lang.english.ini->lang.ini) and copy it into \programs\s2u2 folded (when asked click on replace existing file).
-reboot.
when windows starts a popup appears and s2u2 starts for the first time. so you can now set it up in s2u2 setting (wallpaer, ecc...)
thx dude for the lightning fast response
you're welcome...solved?
yep, just ninstalled it and works fine.
one more issue...
S2U2 is not picking the weather from HTC's weather panel... wht do u think is wrong?
thx....
mine shows weather correctly...have u selected touchflo3d in s2u2 settings?
...have you downloaded the weather for the location and have you setting up the gmt time for the same locatioon in home tab?
to show weather correctly weather tabs must shows the same location as gmt time.
sorry for my English...
the seven options for weather that s2u2 1.62 gives me are
Off | SPB Weather 1.x | Weather Panel | Pocket Weather | HTC Home Weather | UserWeather | Manila 2D Weather | Manila 3D Weather
I selected both Weather panel and HTC Home Weather, none seem to work.
Yes, tocuflo3d's weather panel has downloaded the latest weather updates...
my home location and time are correct too...
thx....
EDIT: I tried Manilla 3D and its working! .... hmm.... is tht its name?....
yeah!
Hey I just installed S2U2 cause I needed a good locking program but for some weird reason and multiple installations, uninstall and soft-resets, I'm still not able to get the slide to unlock work.
I mean i get the screen with the time and all just the slider isn't there.
i have tried many skins but still no go.
Is there a solution I don't know?

In the S2U2-Settings, set the following values (beside the others you want, of course):
Hide all softkeys: OFF (This is the value that hides the slider)
Display mode: GDI (Otherwise the screen would be scrambled sometimes when you change the orientation)
