BT Icon/Hardware Key
 
4 Attachment(s)
Neat little app. All it does it puts a BT Icon in the lower system tray. If BT is enabled it's the logo, if it's disabled it's crossed out. Great visual notification for BT.

Simply install the .cab file (BTIcon). Ignore the "it might not be compatible with your device" warning.

Now, under \windows you'll see BTicon.exe. Double click and you're all set. Not sure if it auto-starts with the system, if not just copy a shortcut .lnk to \windows\startup and your set.

How to enable BT via Hardware Key

Haven't done this myself as I use AE Button Plus to activate BT, anways download and install CicleBT below and you should be able to configure your BT to a hardware/software key.
(Winmobileapps_CicleBT.CAB.zip)

Let me know if it don't worky. :lol:

Is this similiar to phonealarm where it has a bt icon that you could tap it to turn it on/off?

Malatesta 08-25-2006 12:00 PM

basically.

when you tap this icon, it's basically a shortcut to the Connections --> Bluetooth module, so you still have to check it on or off. that and it resides in the system tast bar thing (where connection manager, screen rotation, etc, go).

of course, if you use the hardware key program, you don't have to do that. Personally, using AE Button Plus, I just double-tap my right softkey and that will toggle BT on or off and this icon will then reflect that status.

So this is good if you don't use Phonealarm, or you do but the skin your using doesn't have BT in it or, like me, you just like the extra visible confirmation of BT status.

thanks mala ;)

works well in my 750 ;) in a truetoolbar
not necessary to create a link in windows/start menu: autocreate it self a shortcut.

ok so I have been using bt more and more so I figured I would try this on my apache and guess what I got a wsod lol. So I warn everyone with apaches that I installed it, and after a soft reset it caused my ppc to load to a white screen and the only way I could recover it was a hard reset. :( thx mala :P jk

Weird.

When I 1st posted this (end of Aug), guess what I was still using?

Apache/6700


Worked fine. I mean all it is is a visual/shortcut to BT. Hardly invasive.
That's why I posted it as the 700wx already has a BT icon notification

Try it again now that you hard reset. I'm going with there was a conflict of some sort but ultimately not caused by the BT icon per se.
