Hey folks, while MarcLandis is spending his time with the big clock applet, I started to write a CommManger Applet for VGA devices. It's still beta and more functionality will be added. But first I start in my weekend, so I will look over all requests and bugs next week. All comments, proposals, etc. are welcome.
Have fun!

Please, make a QVGA version too!
great to see more applets coming in. might tempt me to do some work as well but work takes precedence for now.
if you need beta tester, please let me know!

very nice! many great minds are at work here! keep it up!
i hope u guys can do more with the messaging.. like adding the ability to reply or open a message with the pointui interface.. u know what i mean? like not getting transferred to the default windows messaging whenever we select on a message on the SMS/MMS applet..

o yeah, by the way, pls a QVGA version would be really nice! :)
Moved thread to the right forum.
@Orlando : as I said to MarcLandis, dont forget you could used the IsVGA() or AutoScaleValue() methods.
It allows you to use only one set of graphics for VGA and QVGA.
Nice work!
hey monte, Marc already told me. that's great, saves a lot of designing work. will look over it. thanks, and keep up working on that f***ing awesome framework. can't wait patiently for the pro version. so much possibilities...
I'm sure you are working on the phone status, if only you can add phone profile that'll be perfect!
flight mode is in plan as well as ring profiles. but so far what i see, vibrate is not possible at the moment.
other plans so far status applet with battery, signal strength, etc, a rss reader and more to follow. did i mentioned, that i love pointui? :-)
wow... i need thiss!! QVGA version please... or share with us the png to convert them to the half..
Nice applet you go there. But the name of the connected wifi network didn't work for me so i recommend adding a timer to refresh the labels and redraw the screen. Another thing is that the title label is moved to the right so the x in bounds should be 0.
Keep up the good work!

yep, the communication to wifi not displayed on the screen - i am connected, but this is same message " u are not...."
Orlando, you're my new hero, keep the awesome apps coming! ;)
Orlando, I moved this thread in the right forum and closed the other.
I've updated your first post with the previous...
Sorry about that.

Ok.... I made this update to the file:
Added the function:
void Check_WiFi_Connection()
{
Wifistat = WiFi.GetStatus();
String isConnected;
if (Wifistat == "1")
{
isConnected = WiFi.GetConnectedNetworkName();
if (isConnected == "")
{
WifiConn = "You are not connected to any WiFi network.";
}
else
{
WifiConn = "You are connected to the WiFi network \"";
WifiConn += WiFi.GetConnectedNetworkName;
WifiConn += "\".";
}
}
}
And i added call to this function in AppGotFocus() and Activated();
But its not work - because i don't get the Network name in line
isConnected = WiFi.GetConnectedNetworkName();
i checked it by switching ON the wi-fi , exiting this applet, entering this applet.
i see this line :
You are connected to the WiFi network ""
:(
What the problem?
But it not work on
try changing:
WifiConn = "You are connected to the WiFi network \"";
WifiConn += WiFi.GetConnectedNetworkName;
WifiConn += "\".";
to:
WifiConn = "You are connected to the WiFi network \"";
WifiConn += WiFi.GetConnectedNetworkName();
WifiConn += "\".";
and in AppGotFocus() and Activated() add this:
lblWifistat.SetText(WifiConn);
lblBTstat.SetText(BTConn);

Ok, i found it!
I just forgot to set the label with new text:
void Check_WiFi_Connection()
{
Wifistat = WiFi.GetStatus();
String isConnected;
if (Wifistat == "1")
{
isConnected = WiFi.GetConnectedNetworkName();
if (isConnected == "")
{
WifiConn = "You are not connected to any WiFi network.";
}
else
{
WifiConn = "You are connected to the WiFi network " + isConnected + "\".";
}
lblWifistat.SetText(WifiConn);
}
}
So, now after switchin ON the WiFi, if it find any network and connected, if u exit the applet (it means u going to Today and back, or "menu" and back) u will find update : the name of net u connected....
I'm going to add check for Blue tooth to in next 10 min.

i read ur post to late, but thanks bro, u right - i was sure that update of label going in the Redrav function.
I've added Timer so network name and bluetooth devices will be refreshed every 30s.
Edit:
I see there's no chance to delete old attachments so please download the bigger one..
CommMgr.txt (8.8 KB, 50 downloads) 1 year old CommMgr.txt (8.4 KB, 6 downloads) 1 year old alright. thanks guys for the great support. as well to Marc for the help with QVGA. All of you help to make this better. when we will have all the features, we want to have, i will design an "enhanced htc comm mgr" design, if you would like to have it.

BTW, why the Phone button is disabled?
P.S. I sink i go to RTFM ... make some changes that CommManager Applet won't start :)

Big respect to Orlando and ibrythill for this manager.
There attached Working version of this applet with small improvements in logics of messages (For example u will see "WiFi is OFF", "WiFi is ON, not connected", "Bloo.. is OFF") instead number of the devises when connection is off...
Based on the file of ibrythill, t.m. include automatic refresh of the status every 30 sec.
yep, now file divided to #regions for readability :)
Now, one more time: Why the Phone disabled? It's not work?
Can i get some info about the level of connection from WiFi Class? It be nice to make it visible on applet....

Is this new language only an update for the VGA or has the QVGA been introducted into the mix yet?
Nice work! Can't wait for a QVGA version!

Awesome! This is just what I needed, thx!
hey Monte. It might be too late or I am too dump, but regarding the documentation I don't see the possibility to use the same graphics for QVGA. Looks like I only can tell the application which image set to use. Can you guide a little bit?
Thanks in advance, and release the pro! :-)

CommMgr.cs v0.3[u]
:)
Ok, I can't edit my last post, so i need to make new one:
This is a UPDATED CommMgr.cs file WITH PHONE functionality!
In priv. file it only WiFi and Bluetooth functionality.
In this one added Phone Flight Mode also.
So it work like that:
By switching ON the FlightMod (Phone icon), U switch OFF the Phone, WiFi and Bluetooth (all together).
After that, u CAN switch on WiFi or Bluetooth. BUT! If u wont your phone back to work, IF your WiFi or Bluetooth is working, first Click on Phone btn. will switch them OFF, and only second Click will switch Phone ON.
Its like that because for logic of scripting only full off is Flight mod.
To Do -> to change the Phone Btn. from Diamond picture to HD! :)
Instruction: Download the attached file, Rename it to "CommMgr.cs", replace the file from folder in the first post, put it on ur phone in the directory "\Program Files\Home2\AppletRibbon", run!
