nueMinutes - Monitor your sprint minute usage today plugin
 

Hello,

I developed a new today plugin that checks your Sprint minute usage. Its (slightly) rough at the moment, so it might not work if you have some plan type that I'm not aware of. It's written in c++, but the part that checks your minutes is written in .net. It's beta software, so it might fry your device, although its running on my titan just fine.

Update - 0.6 fixed sprint issues

currently only works with wm6 and wm6.1

To install, download the cab from my website:
http://www.nuerom.com/BlogEngine/pos...es-Update.aspx

Go to the today screen and enable the plugin, then press the gear on the today screen to configure it. You MUST save your username and password for My Sprint for the today plugin to check your minutes. If you would like to reconfigure the order things appear on the screen, go to data, press refresh, then go to today, and configure as you please. To force a refresh, press the internet icon.

Basic instructions:
Download cab to device.
Install cab.
Go to Control Panel -> Today
Make sure nueMinutes is enabled, press OK.
Go to today (Start -> Today)
Click on gear.
Click on settings.
Enter your username and password. If your username is your phone number, you only need to enter username and password. If your username is not your phone number, then you are probably on ensemble and need to select new billing system and enter your phone number. Press save password.
Now go to data, and press "refresh". It will try to get data, once it is done, you can customize the home screen. Go to the today screen, and you can set what data you want to be displayed. For example, if you want "mobile to mobile" to be displayed first, select it from the list. Under "short" is the name for it that appears on the today screen. The Vis. checkbox selects if it is visible on the today screen or not. Be sure to press save settings and not populate!
Then go back to your today screen, and press the internet icon to force a refresh. Your usage data should appear on your today screen now.

Let me know if you encounter any problems, or any feature requests.

so what is wrong with calling *4

um, it takes time, and.. its a call?

Looks useful i'll try on my Treo later

This should be a neat today plugin, tryin' to run it now. Sprint 6700 with Kirvin's C&S, D/L it to storage card, installed it in Ext Rom, not showing in programs or today screen options. Running it from Ext Rom, get error code (how cool, you even included error codes-GREAT programming!!) InvalidCastException


at nueMinutes.Form1loadSettings()
at nueMinutes.Form1.ctor()
at nueMinutes.Program.Main()

Reload, get error msg:
nueMinutes.exe
NullRferenceException

at minuteLibrary.Minutes.getdata()

Sweet looking app. Thanks for the hard work and sharing with us all.

I keep getting "unknown error" message on Touch. Perhaps the recent migration to new billing system caused the problem?

I am also getting "unkown error" when it trys to log in, (Apache running WM6)

I'm on the new billing system (ensamble)

Where do you get this error message? Actually, I think I figured out the error you're getting... Try reinstalling, and don't press save settings before you press refresh. I'm updating the plugin so this bug no longer occurs.
