Good manual for Windows Mobile?? - HTC Vox

Hi there,
sorry, one more question: I am still searching for a manual that lists and explains ALL windows mobile settings on my HTC S710.
The HTC manual itself is just good for a start but not comprehensive enough to cover all options.
Can anybody help?
Many thanks
Andi

the HTC manual that comes with the phone is the only manual for this device. You can download the pdf version of it from the HTC website.
and if there is anything you are confused about just ask in the forum here and you'll get the reply very quick...

Hi,
many thanks for the quick answer. I think the HTC manual is not very good as there are many options just missed out to be described.
But here you go, I am firing off some questions on settings now (hope I can translate them as good as possible, have a german OS
Sounds Settings
- Reminder - When is this sound fired?
- New instant message - when this?
- New channel message - what is a channel message?
Profile details
- Alarm volume - which kind of alarm, only the clock alarm?
- Notification volume - for which notification is this?
Home screen
- what is the timeout setting for?
Unlock screen clock
- what is this and where can I find this?
ActiveSync
- is there any way I can set a kind of "retry"? The exchange server in our company sometimes comes back with an error 403 on first trial, but works fine when trying it a second time. However, automatic update is therefore not possible
General question on WLAN
- If I have a WLAN connection and a GPRS connection, which one will be preferred?
Sorry, so many questions. But would really looking forward on getting some answers to them.
Many many thanks to all upfront.
Bests
Andi

Sounds Settings
- Reminder - fired when you have a appointment or event.
- New instant message - if you use windows live and get a IM
- New channel message - I think most probably msg by network operator (call cost etc)
Profile details
- Alarm volume - which kind of alarm, only the clock alarm - yes
- Notification volume - for which notification is this - reminders etc
Home screen
- what is the timeout setting for? - after that time screen turns black
Unlock screen clock
- what is this and where can I find this - if you enable this and lock the keypad, you will have a clock on the unlock screen. Press and hold the red key to enable keypad lock.
ActiveSync
- is there any way I can set a kind of "retry"? - NO
General question on WLAN
- If I have a WLAN connection and a GPRS connection, which one will be preferred? - WLAN is much faster!

Thanks, just one doubt
Hi Prajith,
many thanks for your answers. Made some things clearer to me now.
Just I have one doubt about the setting:
Home screen
- what is the timeout setting for? - after that time screen turns black
This is set to 10 minutes on my Vox, but my screen turns black after 1 minute already.
So I guess this setting is something different than you meant?
Many thanks
Andi

When you are in a program and do anything it'll go back to homescreen after that time!

thanks frauhottelmann for correcting me.
i guess i was drunk when i wrote tht

Thanks !
Hi,
thanks both of you. Now it makes perfectly sense to me
Have a nice weekend

[APP] NoLED v6.0.19 - Use the AMOLED screen for incoming notifications

Before asking questions, please read the FAQ.
Introduction:
I saw the idea posted somewhere previously that instead of getting the capacitive lights on, we really should be putting the phone's AMOLED screen to work ! specially that it doesn't consume any backlight energy when displaying a black screen. So I developed an app that does just that: upon receiving a notification, it will display a black screen with a dot or icon somewhere in the screen. I really should put these in bullet points..
Description:
the application does the following:
1. When your phone receives a notification, it switches the screen on and displays a notification. The notification bounces around every 3 seconds (changeable via an option). This will guarantee using different LEDs so that the same ones won't be burned out.
2. You can customize whether to have a dot or an icon for each type of supported notification. Users may also customize the colors of these icons/dots.
3. NoLED will work with SMS/MMS, Gtalk, Gmail, Missed calls, Voicemail, Calendar and K-9 (email client) without any additional permissions. Any other 3rd party software (e.g. Whatsapp, Email app, Yahoo Mail and Hotmail) will need to be checked under Monitored Apps and will require granting Accessibility rights to NoLED.
4. The app runs as a service, after installing, you have two ways to activate the app. (a) by restarting. (b) by loading the widget into your home screen and clicking on it.
5. To get rid of the notification screen, you may use the home or the back key. You can enable dismissal via more keys in the Miscellaneous submenu. Once your notifications are dismissed, all notifications disappear and will not come back up.
I have also logged the touch drivers and saw that although I'm displaying a black screen and setting flags to not respond to touch messages, android is still receiving touch messages when you touch any spot on the screen. This, I imagine, consumes resources! So I disabled the touch drivers when the black screen is active. Dismissing the notifications should reactive the touch drivers. If your screen is unresponsive to touch even after the notification screen is dismissed, a simple restart should take care of it. There is also an option to completely disable that feature. The touch drivers are only disabled on the Samsung Galaxy S variants, all other devices are still receptive to touch events.
Now the touchscreen drivers were a lot easier to mess around with. The sourcecode given by samsung helped me achieve the activation/deactivation of the screen. Things are not the same with the capacitive buttons. You'll notice that when the black screen is on, if you touch any of the soft buttons, they'll light up (although am suppressing them programatically). On some other devices like the Nexus S, these backlights cannot be switched off once the screen is turned on programatically. This is a bug from Google and more info is in the FAQ.

NoLED Weather
v0.8 10/23/2012
Weather should now reflect current city more accurately; it will choose the first returned search result.
v0.7 10/10/2012
Weather was not automatically updating after a restart. Now it does.
v0.5 9/13/2012
Fixed an issue where geolocator was causing auto-update to stop working.
v0.4 9/6/2012
Updated language files
Changed weather provider to MSN. Google just quietly killed their APIs
Changed geolocator timeout to 90 seconds (used to be 20 seconds)
v0.3 1/26/2012
Added Geolocation using Wireless networks (no physical GPS will be used).
-it will give up wireless location discovery after 20 seconds (will release all wakelocks).
-if timedout, weather will query the latest weather location on record.
Removed the noled weather icon from the app launcher (i personally found it so ugly and useless). Instead, you access the weather app/plug-in via the NoLED settings under toggle notifications (requires NoLED > v5.0.1b).

Can this dot be made to look like a mail icon for SMS ... "!" for missed call etc?
Perfect, BIG thanks. One less issue with SGS
this is a very clever idea.
I tried it out, but it isnt working for me on my Samsung Captivate

Strange, it really should work.
Did you lock the screen and unlock once after installation ? Try sending a sms to yourself from another phone while the screen is off. Then wait for about 10 seconds (enough time for the whole screen to light up, go off, and then show a notification). Let me know if this still doesn't work, the captivate might have different screen timeouts than our galaxy S.
No working
Its now working on my SGS.
The reason could be > I have lost my default notifications after sd card fix. I do have a media folder on my sdcard/sd with default samsung tones which i copied before the fix on to my ext sd.
Any solutions ?

I would say try to sms from another phone, or give yourself a missed call to see if the application is running. These should work regardless of where you placed your notification tones.
If these do work, then make sure you place your notification tones in /sdcard/sd/media/audio/notifications , playing any of them should trigger the notification.
Unfortunatly not working for me too. Using JG1 and modaco´s r2. All default ringtones selected.
Would love to get this working.

Can you go to Settings > Applications > Running Services and see whether NoLED is listed there ?
suggestions that i don't think would consume too much power:
Have different images for different notifications, as suggested before: phone icon for call, mail icon for mail, sms icon for sms etc.
Also make possible to have all the different icons at once, so if i have missed a text message and a mail, there would be 2 icons on the screen at the same time.
Also have a number for how many of missed text's, mails i have missed on the corresponding icon.
Make the image jump to a different random spot every few second, so it won't just stay in one place and so be bad for the panel. (dunno if this would consume too much energy).

I think these are two great ideas. I'll try to implement them if I get sometime. I will try to set a different icon/color for each notification, and make them move around every few seconds. This might have a hit on cpu utilization, but its well worth a try.

With what are you testing the application btw ? Are you sending an email to yourself ? If you turn the screen off, send an email that has a default samsung ringtone, do you receive anything?
I tested it with my phone at home calling my mobile. And i´m getting emails all the way but unfortunatly no red dot on screen.
Is this app in the market? I can't see it in the op on the xda app.
Now it is working. Changed the ringtone (the old one selected was also a dtandard ringtone) and rebooted.
Now it works!
How come this method got so quickly made, but the other method still isn't functional? (talking about the other thread)

well, the android SDK allows for programs like this to exist, the SDK has no APIs to support lighting up the soft buttons. that's why.
also, the drivers for the backlight are disabled and enabled in ways that we don't fully understand yet.
Very impressed so far! Definitely something I'll donate to in the future if it gets a few more features.
What I'd like to see:
- Custom colours for different notifications/multiple notifications.
- The dot slightly higher up or have it configurable where the dot is/how big it is.
That's about all I can think of for now, great work .

Feature Request: Blink left LED with unread sms

Hello,
i own a now a bit aged Vox as second phone.
The point is, that it DOESN'T blink with new SMS arrived!
- the led works but it simply doesn't notify my, if there's a missed SMS/Email!
Any way to fix this?
tried notif blinker from i780, just activates vibration and can't be stopped till uninstalled!
seems to be wrong LED number set by default fpr htc vox. - vibration is listed as LED in i780 too!
im on "offical 6.5"
thanks for help!
Install the AutoKeylock from maniac - it supports many notification types and you can select what shall be notified and how: http://maniac.fschreiner.de/dmdocuments/Keylock_WM5.CAB
Main purpose is to lock the device - as the name says.
There is also "Don't Forget" something specialized on notifications - but I remember it had eaten some more CPU (in early versions - may be), check for yourself: http://magazin.softimage.cz/dontforget/download/

New features in 4.3 and Sense 5.5

I have found a list with new features for the One here. Mostly all apply for the One mini.
New things:
Do Not Disturb, very cool thing that simply sets phone in Do No Disturb mode. You can set for how long and who/to be excluded from it. Turns of sound, notifications and all such things that might disturb. Accessed for the pull down quick settings menu.
Gallery have changed a lot. Albums now have a tiled look much like events, and you can now see your HTC Shares and even delete those (and see how much space there's left there). Video highlights got all new themes, and you can even add your own music.
In Camera Sweep Panorama can now be both landscape or portrait. Camera UI changed a bit, you see text Zoe under the Zoe button. And when you start Camera you see how many photos and minutes video there's left on the phone's storage.
With screen lock active, swipe to the left in the upper right part of the screen. Then you get a + sign where you can add screen lock widgets.
Under Call in Settings you have Phone Notification Preview, which shows you caller ID missed calls on screen lock and status bar.
If you don't want both lock screen and security screen you can disable screen lock (you need a security lock first) under Settings > Security > Bypass lock screen on wake.
Select what kind of notifications you want on lock screen under Settings > Security > Notification Settings. You can select: Phone (shows missing calls), Voice mail, Text messages, Emails and Calendar.
Select if you want Music playback controls on not on your lock screen under Settings > Security > Music Playback
With Developer options active, option Stay awake is now back. Which keeps the display on while charging.
Pull down quick settings menu can now be customized, with up to 12 quick settings.
In Weather app you can now select temperature scale under Settings.
You can add your Google+ account in Blinkfeed.
Disable Blinkfeed by long pressing empty area of a regular screen, then tapping “Blinkfeed on” on the upper left hand corner. Which turns Blinkfeed off.
Under Sleep mode in Settings > Power, you can now set start and end of Sleep mode or have it set as Auto.
With phone turned off: alarms can now turn phone on, then trigger the alarm. And when you dismiss the alarm phone gets turned back to its previous state (off), this is a major thing.
Zoom-bar in camera is hidden, you pinch-zoom to control zooming (zoom-bar is shown when you pinch-zoom).
Connect charger to phone while it's off while show a charging “animation” on the display for a while.
Things different from Sense 5.0, things that are “missing”:
Screen lock option gone from Personalize, there is no settings for any kind of screen lock theme under Settings. You can’t set screen lock theme to “none”, and there is no way to set wallpaper for lock screen since screen lock themes are gone.
T9 layout gone from stock keyboard.
Known bugs:
With Animations turned OFF under Developer options, Share menus and things will simply not work. It affects more than just one thing, so: keep animations ON. So, if you're affected: Set all Animations to 1 and restart phone (that part is important).
In lock screen you can add some widget: swipe to left and click + icon
You can also "personalize" lock screen from settings/security/notification but just for missing calls and sms !
With Sense 5 you can set also email and calendar, the ones that now I miss !!!!
Edit: after some test I'm really disappointed that even with missing calls and SMS notification active they don't came on lock screen but only in notification bar, so this is also a bug !

Oh no! These are two of the features I enjoy most! So, no more weather animations on screen lock at all???

You can still put widgets on lock screen, while on lockscreen swipe to the left in the right top corner. There's also a small arrow, press on the "+" and add a widget but I think it's not possible anymore to add it on the main lockscreen :/ yea I miss a notification system like Apple has. Google should built it in, in android and give the devs the option to add it into there apps like Apple do

Hi,
I'm back to screen lock bug notification win Sense 5.5...
To be sure of this bug, before I contact htc support, can someone do a test ?
It's easy: set the notification for Text Message, go screen off and ask a friend to send a sms to you; when received wakeup screen and check notification if it is only in notification bar or also in lock screen...
Thanks.
Confirmed that text & missed call notiications don't show on lockscreen.
Also, I can only add 1 lockscreen widget it seems - once added, swiping to left again does nothing. Is this by design?
Thanks for confirming the lock screen notifications bug...
Yes, I think only one widget is by design (the widget can occupy all the screen...)

But then can't add any more widget screens to the right? That really sucks. It's always 1 step forward, 2 steps back with HTC ...
Maybe I didn't understood...
In lock screen you can add only 1 widget, but in normal screen you can have many pages with a lot's of widgets...
bug with log screen confirmed, regardless, disabled or enabled in security settings, I can not see notifications for missed calls or messages on lock screen. Can we install some app from the market in order to fix this issue (while waiting for HTC to fix it)?
Another nice new feature is the option to adjust the Automatic Brightness setting - can now set the maximum brightness value, works a bit like iOS.
Also the Music Player widgets now have a blue circle around the play icon to indicate duration of track remaining.
Anyone else finding that the Airplane widget takes you to settings now, instead of toggling Airplane mode? I'm no longer getting the rolling Airplane animation.

I confirm, it also takes me to settings. As a solution you can set airplane mode in the notification bar toggles.

Hi! I am confirming the bug with missing notifications on lock screen on my One Mini. HTC support had no knowledge about this bug. Are there any work-arounds to get notifications on lock screen? All apps I have found can show notifications on second (swipe right) lock screen only and it does not work for me.
I do not have this bug on my HTC One (not mini) with same Sense version.
Regards!
In gallery, i can :
- make gif from my video
- apply custom effect
---------- Post added at 06:03 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:02 AM ----------
But somehow, i never can display my gallery content in blinkfeed. Any solution?
For lockscreen notifications i use Nils new floating panel. Really best solution so far. Its still in Beta but working great
Gesendet von meinem HTC One mini mit Tapatalk 4
I have only 'Phone calls' and 'Text Message' in the security -> notifications. No emails / calendar.
Also wondering if I'm the only one who's music is suddenly stuttering every now and then since 4.3 (more an Android 4.3 thing than a Sense 5.5 thing I guess)

I can confirm this. On BT the music is hanging randomly, this is very annoying. If it's the same with cable, then this is a huge bug.
Reading here there seem to be a lot of down sides to the new 4.3 update. that or it's still in it's early stages of development? I'm still using 4.2.2 and loving it, but was wondering if there was anything major I'm missing by not upgrading?

This is enough for me for an upgrade :good: :good:

Is there a way to lengthen the "time on" for the lockscreens w/o entering password?

Is there a way to lengthen the "time on" for the lockscreens w/o entering password?
Title asks it all 8)
Looking to extend the awake time for the lockscreen while it's waiting for one to enter the password, unlock pattern, etc.
EDIT: Reason being - while using the Xposed Quick Access module it would be nice if the screen didn't off itself after a couple of seconds whilst I'm reading whatever info I have set for Quick Access-ability.
Thanks!
Sooo... I think I've solved this issue with a Tasker task. Tested with an n = 1 data set, but that one was a success. Looking forward to future testings to see if this works and solves the issue.
For those interested - in Tasker, I set up an app profile and triggered screen on, never timeout while that app is open / on-screen. Not the most perfect task since I'll have to actively remove the app from the screen for the phone to operate the lock function as normal, but I think it'll work for what I was hoping to do.
- Using Xposed Notification mod, I can pull down the notification menu down when I receive a new notification (an email for example).
- Or even better, using the Dynamic Notifications app I can open the email straight from the dynamic notification (similar to the function found on the Moto X for those not familiar).
- Then through the Xposed Quick Access mod, the email opens right over the lockscreen without going through the whole unlocking the phone process saving a few motions, clicks, etc.
- Then the Tasker task takes over and keeps the screen on whilst I'm reading / responding to the email, then when I delete the email and the lockscreen appears, the Tasker task ends and the screen goes back into default screen off / timeout mode.
Hopefully this will help someone else out in the future, or give someone else another idea! 8)

Looks great! I like the clean design and colors. Might I make 2 suggestions / requests:
1. Is it possible to make the UX a bit more... predictable? For example, when you click a button, it activates an option, but when you click it again, it doesn't seem to do the opposite, which leads to confusion as to how to get back to the original state.
2. Integration with Automagic / Tasker / etc?
Thanks for your efforts!!
Thanks for the app, it seems useful. And looks pretty nice too, especially the animation when you click or hold something.
A couple features that would make it more useful: a quick settings tile to bring up a popup menu, and an alarms only mode.
Also, something that's probably a bug: when you enable Full DnD, then turn it off, then enable Priority Only, all the media, alarms, etc settings will still be off thanks to Full DnD.
Lastly, I see the description says open source, but don't see a link. Would you mind linking to the source code?

Thanks also for the good words. I'll add the feature ideas, they are good ideas and I should be able to implement them fairly soon. Lastly, Enabling Priority Only is supposed to switch off media, alarms etc initially. Same as Full Dnd. The only difference is that you are then able to toggle them on if needed. Hope this clarifies things!

Absolutely! As for the 2 items mentioned:
1. Example - it looks like the default state is DND off. If you turn it on using the green top left button, then turn it off again, then click on e.g. media sounds (which is off at that point), it will turn on all 4 options, media, messages, touch, and alarms. You can't then however click to turn any of these off again. Come to think of it, maybe this is a bug where DND state does not match on/off state of various settings.
2. Automagic / Tasker - thanks for looking into this! Not sure if this is your main focus after putting so much effort into the UI, but it would be super useful. I currently use Automagic to set DND on when connected to work wifi, but it refuses to turn it off when disconnected even though I've set that.
Thanks again!

Hello! Thanks for the good words! Could you give me an example of when you click a button and it does not have the expected behaviour? Cheers!
Integration with Automagic and Tasker: I'd have to work out how to do that, but I'll add it to the to do list!
Absolutely! As for the 2 items mentioned:
1. Example - it looks like the default state is DND off. If you turn it on using the green top left button, then turn it off again, then click on e.g. media sounds (which is off at that point), it will turn on all 4 options, media, messages, touch, and alarms. You can't then however click to turn any of these off again. Come to think of it, maybe this is a bug where DND state does not match on/off state of various settings.
2. Automagic / Tasker - thanks for looking into this! Not sure if this is your main focus after putting so much effort into the UI, but it would be super useful. I currently use Automagic to set DND on when connected to work wifi, but it refuses to turn it off when disconnected even though I've set that.
Thanks again!

So I had a look and this is what happens in my case:
1. DND OFF by default (media, alarms etc allowed - can't be toggled)
2. I click on the top green button: Full DND ON (media, alarms etc go to OFF - can't be toggled)
3. I click on the green button again: DND back to OFF (media, alarms etc go back to ON - can't be toggled)
This is expected behaviour. Is that not what you are getting then? If not, please let me know what phone you are using and what android api you're on. Cheers!

Anyone using the app with a Samsung device? Someone on Reddit says that the "Advanced Settings" button crashes the app on a Note 9. Can you guys reproduce this?
It might be that the path to System Settings is different on Samsung devices, in which case I need to modify my code. Please let me know! Cheers!

Love the app! Actually managed to get a setting that I cant find by default on my Huawei Mate 10 pro: Silent calling when called by unknown number, _while_ keeping notification sound on for apps. I use this DND setting 24/7 now.
