iGuidance MortScript to get around TTS not always working

Latest attached...

Windows are an Array
Processes are an Array

Does not try to close "Start" (although I still check if manila.exe is running)

1) Closes all windows in the list
2) Checks if the windows are close, if they are not it tries to close them again and then waits for 10 seconds or until they close on their own
3) Checks if any Process in the Process Array exists, if it does tries to kill it


mswlogo - i have noticed (on my ROM anyway) that poutlook.exe loads on startup with no window title. i have not found killing this to hurt TTS - but curious if you see the same when you boot?

I am curious how we can close windows with no titles...

Pardon my ignorance, not experienced at all in scripting. Does this close the 6.5 menu like it does TF3D, or can it be modified to? This seems really useful, but I don't use TF3D.

I pretty sure you can. You have to look in the registery to see what it's called and then update the two registry calls in script and that would shut it down and restart it. I believe that the 6.5 menu is called Titanium but who knows what it's call in the registry. Just toggle it off and on use the "Today Settings" (I think it's called "Windows Default" in the Today configuration) and look in the registry to see what is being enabled/disabled.

Script sounds good, I have not had a chance to look at it though.

tmail.exe & poutlook.exe is not running at boot on my phone (see my Signature for ROM).

If I goto email tab and click inbox I get threaded email and tmail.exe starts up and has a Window with "Outlook" in the title.

If I go to Contacts and open a Contact poutlook.exe starts up and has Multiple Windows with "Contact" in the title. This is the one that requires multiple Window closes to shut it down.

If you have a process with no Windows then I would try Close(<process name>) is probably the safest.

Even if Kill has worked it may not always. It's just better to avoid Kill until you have no choice.

Agree - I believe what you are looking for is "Windows Default" as mswlogo said.

So where the script says...

RegWriteDword("HKLM","Software\Microsoft\Today\Ite ms\HTC Sense", "Enabled",0)

I THINK you would need...

RegWriteDword("HKLM","Software\Microsoft\Today\Ite ms\"Windows Default"", "Enabled",0)

Interesting...

poutlook.exe is running on boot for me with no window title
when i open contacts, poutlook.exe is running with window title Contacts only


Couple other things I have noticed...do you have see windows titled: Default Ime ???

I have seen this window title many times...in place of window titles that I know! (eg Default Ime instead of Opera)



one other question...when you look at the Path in your task manager of repllog.exe

after the \Windows\repllog.exe does it say

AppRunAfterTimeChange ???

Mine does - and I have noticed that sometimes when i hit end to get out of igo8 and check task manager repllog.exe will be running...i am wondering if this is the cause of TTS sometimes not working...

Yes I have seen "Default Ime" and I'm not sure what it is.

As far as Repllog that is normal behavior.

You can control and understand more using MemMaid (or similar tool) and look through the "Notifcation Queue". This is an important piece of how Windows Mobile works. It has events, like Time Change, New USB Device, Boot, Shutdown etc. and to fire some exe on that event. That's how Meeting notices are scheduled etc. You'll will see several Repllog.exe entries for different events. I used to remove the one on TimeChange for repllog.exe. Depends on how you use your phone if you need it or not.

Also if something like repllog.exe does start while iGuidance and TTS are working it has not been problem. So I don't worry about it.

However I did have one situation where VoiceCmd came back complaining it could not start because iGuidance had grabbed the resource they were competing for. Only happened once though. And it so happened to be when I had Exchange running with push email (which I normally do not do). Lots of stuff going on.

few tweaks...

added a "close process" loop before the kill process loop...

Hi, I am new to this script thing. I followed the instruction on the first post.
1. copy script to windows/start menu/programs
2. add a shortcut to the script

when I run it, I get an error saying that
"the file 'iGo8' cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate, or one of its components cannot be found. If the problem persists, try reinstalling or restoring this file."

I am using the latest Energy Rom, and I did not change anything in the script. File name remains as "iGo8.mscr"

Thanks for the help!

does the script shut off sense? i mean - is the script running just not opening igo8?

dumb question but did you install mortscript (the program)?

is the path to igo8 the same for you as it is in the script? which script r u using?
