No Thank you Storyr!

Re: [Mobile Shell 3.0 Widget] WeatherPanel (with current conditions)
 

That did the trick and I have to use Phatfinger since I have an Omnia. Nothing else works. Thanks again for all you HARD work!!!

Re: [Mobile Shell 3.0 Widget] WeatherPanel (with current conditions)
 

Storyr, I first installed WeatherPanel and the Active-Inject soon after your post on the SPB forum. It installed perfectly. I have an HTC Vogue, and installed both programs on the device. Everything worked great, except I noticed I had lost my EV connection and GPS. I could update the EV, but it was unstable. I tried to check my GPS settings with QPST, and it refused to accept the security code. So...what have I done lately that could have screwed things up? The last change was Active-Inject. I uninstalled it, and my GPS was back. I actually have not checked to see if I can access the phone with QPST at this point. I then reinstalled Active-inject to my memory card (which may have been a mistake), and got the Zip error. Although when I exited, everything seemed to work. At least last night they did. Today, I had occasional instances when I got the "WeatherPanel Loading" message, and then nothing. When I opened WeatherPanel it had the correct temp, but the icon would not update. If I went to the Today page, I could open WeatherPanel, close it, and then go to the Lifestyle page and open it there. Last night my GPS was working, today it wasn't. I once again uninstalled the Uranus file, and GPS is now working again. I have Total Commander installed, no menu enhancements that I am aware of, and it went through the installation perfectly the first time. My original installation, which seemed to install correctly, just used the default theme. I will download your updated file and install it when I get home. I realized when reading the past few pages that I have been reinstalling the original version.

I hope we get this figured out, because when it was working it is great. Just one other request when this gets figured out, can we get a bigger icon? With a bigger font for old eyes.

PS. I reinstalled Activate with the updated cab. Hit the error the first time, exited, ran it immediately again, and it went through without a hitch. Currently everything is working just like it should.

Re: [Mobile Shell 3.0 Widget] WeatherPanel (with current conditions)
 

Yes you can I did and no problems

Re: [Mobile Shell 3.0 Widget] WeatherPanel (with current conditions)
 

thankyou sir^

Re: [Mobile Shell 3.0 Widget] WeatherPanel (with current conditions)
 

darren.wlsn1,

glad its working for you now...

BTW, looking at the screenshot you posted i noticed that your MS3 launcher icon , contacts icon and those in the corners are different form the standard ones.

What it is? It's cool.

Re: [Mobile Shell 3.0 Widget] WeatherPanel (with current conditions)
 

my theme is from mr.hawaii's thread thats a sticky, ms3 shine in the themes forum. its called vynill but forgot the author. http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=66642 forgot, clock is from that thread also, great thread mrhawaii

Re: [Mobile Shell 3.0 Widget] WeatherPanel (with current conditions)
 

Darn, I have the htc menu enhancement installed and I don't know how to turn it off to get this installed.

Re: [Mobile Shell 3.0 Widget] WeatherPanel (with current conditions)
 

thanks..

think i'll check it out.

Re: [Mobile Shell 3.0 Widget] WeatherPanel (with current conditions)
 

This is great info. I've solved this problem (running FingerMenu). I simply kill it before starting the injection process. To get it back, just go the FingerMenu's start link, or soft reset.

A GIANT THANKS!!!

Just for that, I'm giving you a free copy of WP-Activate! :mrgreen:

One down, one to go. Can you tell me more about the htc menu enhancement? Is it something you install separately?

Re: [Mobile Shell 3.0 Widget] WeatherPanel (with current conditions)
 

i was also able to install finger menu after wp activate with 0 problems as did the omnia user i thanked. great app story and thanx again for all your hard work on this app. sbp needs to pay close attention.

Re: [Mobile Shell 3.0 Widget] WeatherPanel (with current conditions)
 

I doubt if they will. Really, the widget is really just a manipulation of their existing Link widget.

btw... nice "wood" :laughing6:

Re: [Mobile Shell 3.0 Widget] WeatherPanel (with current conditions)
 

Yes you can but I cooked it into my rom. So I was using an oem.

I believe it is just a matter of getting the right amount of steps in the script to get it to work. As I ran the MSCR file I kept getting closer to getting it to work but couldn't move forward and got an error at line 311 I think it was.

If I could disable menu enchancement I could probably get it to work.

Re: [Mobile Shell 3.0 Widget] WeatherPanel (with current conditions)
 

Have you tried the injection after exiting Touch Flow altogether?

Looking at the CAB for menu enhancement, it's a DLL and may only be activated when Touch Flo is running. I can't install it myself - I'm not running a high enough build...

Re: [Mobile Shell 3.0 Widget] WeatherPanel (with current conditions)
 

Updated the CAB (1st post) - it will now kill FingerMenu if it's running. I also made it faster again.

There's no need to reinstall if the injector worked for you the first time...

Re: [Mobile Shell 3.0 Widget] WeatherPanel (with current conditions)
 

I will try that.

Re: [Mobile Shell 3.0 Widget] WeatherPanel (with current conditions)
 

got it to work!!

I edited the MSCR file and it kept getting further and further as I edited it until an error came up. When tcommander was supposed to exit the first time it wasn't. So in the middle of the mscr I tapped exit with my finger and it finished!!
I'm sure if I edited the mscr file again for the exit it would work without interaction but either way it works!!!!!!!

Thanks everyone and especially storyr!!

Re: [Mobile Shell 3.0 Widget] WeatherPanel (with current conditions)
 

I can't imagine how this stuff could affect your GPS, or the other stuff I didn't understand ;-)

Glad you got it working, though.

As far as your request for bigger icons: So far, no. This whole concept is based on a manipulation of the MS Link widget. It will display only icons, and 64x64 is the largest. Spb doesn't publish an API for building 3rd party widgets, and what you're seeing here is the first widget that's not just a re-skin of an existing widget...

Re: [Mobile Shell 3.0 Widget] WeatherPanel (with current conditions)
 

Great!

If you have time, I'd still be interested in knowing if the stock .mscr would work when TF isn't running. That way, I could warn others. Thanks again for all of your help...

Re: [Mobile Shell 3.0 Widget] WeatherPanel (with current conditions)
 

I think I figured out what was causing the problem, and might also be the answer for someone else who posted a problem with things freezing up. I realized the problems were coming at "regularly scheduled intervals". I had one setting for updates in the Lifestyle Widget Update, and another setting for updates on the Today page. Deleted the check in the box for updates on the Today page plugin, and the problems were gone.

Re: [Mobile Shell 3.0 Widget] WeatherPanel (with current conditions)
 

Woohoo!! Regardless, glad I could help storyr and as always thanks for your continued efforts.

Re: [Mobile Shell 3.0 Widget] WeatherPanel (with current conditions)
 

storyr,

I downloaded the newest version. It errors out much earlier than the older version, at line 189 instead of line 305. The newest error is because it's looking for FingerMenu, which I don't use.

-Bob-

Re: [Mobile Shell 3.0 Widget] WeatherPanel (with current conditions)
 

I also tried the newest version and get an error at Line 189. I don't use FingerMenu either.

Re: [Mobile Shell 3.0 Widget] WeatherPanel (with current conditions)
 

Uh oh - I didn' test it without finger menu :angry7: I'll fix that immediately...

Re: [Mobile Shell 3.0 Widget] WeatherPanel (with current conditions)
 

i get the same error at 189 about the CE not found or something.

edit that. now after loading total commander manaully, it goes to Line 225 before it crashes.

Re: [Mobile Shell 3.0 Widget] WeatherPanel (with current conditions)
 

storyr,

I meant to send you this screen shot which I made after the origial install where I got an error at line 305. Don't know if this is of any help. Obviously, the widget is reading my WP data.

-Bob-

Re: [Mobile Shell 3.0 Widget] WeatherPanel (with current conditions)
 

cant the non finger menu users just use the older version of wp activate? i uninstalled finger and used first version then reloaded finger menu.

Re: [Mobile Shell 3.0 Widget] WeatherPanel (with current conditions)
 

Storyr,
I'm one of the ones whose widget works perfectly. One question: I noticed your .dll file contains the larger icons also. Is it possible to use those, or is there a widget size restriction in MS3?
(Definitely "no rush" on this - I realize how busy you are and am very thrilled with the widget "as is".)

Re: [Mobile Shell 3.0 Widget] WeatherPanel (with current conditions)
 

so how do you have yours setup? i'm using merdins rom with windows 6.1, then i have touchflo disabled. then i installed the mobile shell. then installed wealtherpanel. then i did a softreset and tried to install the widget.

Re: [Mobile Shell 3.0 Widget] WeatherPanel (with current conditions)
 

look at first page, i think the sizes may be because the wigit says diff things under wigit. just temp, temp + precip ect. im not sure though.

Re: [Mobile Shell 3.0 Widget] WeatherPanel (with current conditions)
 

OK, I think I've got it this time. I update the script so that it should work with FingerMenu and the HTC menu enhancement too (although I can't test that).

Download from the first post, then re-inject...

Re: [Mobile Shell 3.0 Widget] WeatherPanel (with current conditions)
 

This widget, which is an extention of the MS link widget, can only show icons. The dll contains 32x32 and 64x64 icons, and by default, the 32x32 show on QVGA and 64x64 show on VGA. This is built-in behavior, and unfortunately, I can't change it...

I tried many ways and spent many hours trying to get MS to show updates as they happen, and this was the only way I could do it...

Re: [Mobile Shell 3.0 Widget] WeatherPanel (with current conditions)
 

Went back to WeatherPanel so I could try this widget. It was amazing to watch, but I received the following error:
Window 'Target file exists, overwrite?' could not be found
Line 383 (\Program Files\UranusWare\WP-Activate\InjectWidget.mscr):
WaitForActive( "Target file exists, overwrite?", 5 )

Help??

Re: [Mobile Shell 3.0 Widget] WeatherPanel (with current conditions)
 

Wow, this is amazingly hard to get right... ](*,)

Let me ask about your configuration:

• Device?
• TF3D?
• FingerMenu?
• Cooked ROM?
• HTC menu enhancement?
• Installed to main memory or storage card?
• Anything else that you can think of?

Re: [Mobile Shell 3.0 Widget] WeatherPanel (with current conditions)
 

lol, got any hair left storyr? i feel for ya bro. seems hard to fix them all with so many variations running on these ppc's.

Re: [Mobile Shell 3.0 Widget] WeatherPanel (with current conditions)
 

Device - AT&T Tilt, WM 6.1
TF3D - No
FingerMenu - No
Cooked ROM - No
HTC menu enhancement - idk - clarification? Guess if I have to ask then the answer is probably no.
Installed to main memory or storage card? - MS is in main memory; WP is on storage; installed your widget in main memory
Anything else that you can think of? - I installed MS 3.0.1 beta 2 this morning; I also have MS3 Lifestyle Widgets Pro installed. The first time I ran the WP widget, I received an error almost immediately. Uninstalled the widget, reinstalled and tried again. Everything was fine until I got the error on line 383.

Don't lose sleep (or hair) over this...I still have WP on my today screen. Thank you!

Re: [Mobile Shell 3.0 Widget] WeatherPanel (with current conditions)
 

BEAUTIFUL! It works.

Thanks.

-Bob-

Re: [Mobile Shell 3.0 Widget] WeatherPanel (with current conditions)
 

storyr,

Can you tell me what file is opened with your widget in WeatherPanel? I've never liked the alignment of the icon in this view (pc_capture2). Since I usually used the view that doesn't include the WP tray (pc_capture3), I've never been modivated to try to fix the icon position. Now I am. :)

Thanks.

-Bob-

Re: [Mobile Shell 3.0 Widget] WeatherPanel (with current conditions)
 

OK, I promise this is my last request of the day. :)=D>
Does Mobile Shell allow for a small icon with the current temp in it? Something like the attached. If so, can you add it to the choices?

Again, thanks.
