Video Demo - See what JZ Browser does when a URL is clicked inside of any app
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Click to collapse
I had some issues with user-friendliness of a Windows Mobile SmartPhone. No copy/paste, no clipboard history, no way to choose a default browser. To supplement this I kept increasing the functionality of my personal little script coded in MortScript. JZ SmartMort is a simple productivity tool for any Windows Mobile user. The software is my attempt to bridge the gap of missing features like:
Copy / Paste
Clipboard / URL history
Multi-browser support (Opera Mini, Opera Mobile, NetFront, Skyfire, Iris, UCWEB, BOLT, jB5, Opera Mini for Windows Mobile, uZard & Internet Explorer)
Make any installed browser system-level, where it opens links from anywhere. Ability to have a default browser (with a special timeout in case you want to open a link with a non-default browser).
Hardware buttons - supports Pocket PCs & SmartPhones for advanced hardware button mapping.
Opera Mini - shortcut on the Start Menu, different paste & URL handling methods to accommodate different phones.
JBed - create Start Menu shortcuts for any JBed app, run JBed App directly using JZ SmartMort, troubleshoot your JBed installation and disable JBed security prompts.
Ability to open synced Mobile Favorites with any browser, process killing and many other interesting features.
Includes general tweaks and hacks which will keep growing.
I'm pasting below the full release notes, REVISION HISTORY and links to the project files. Please review the screenshots of JZ SmartMort which can be seen on this post or at SourceForge. Let me know if you have suggestions.
UNINSTALLING / REMOVING:
If the CAB does not uninstall successfully, the best software to remove JZ SmartMort is SKTools. It did much better at uninstalling than PocketMechanic & MemMaid.
OPERA MINI PASTING ISSUES:
Make sure you have tried an alternative "Opera Mini Paste Method" in JZ Browser options.
Some WM6 & WM6.1 Standard (Smartphone not PPC) may have issues with copy/paste/select-all-copy/JBed pasting, etc. I have the solution for non-QWERTY SmartPhones (just dial-pad) like HTC StarTrek / Cingular 3125, please see THIS POST about T9 vs. eT9 "keyboard driver" a.k.a. the IME driver.
For HTC Excalibur / Dash
Try activating the "ABC" keyboard, not the "T9" by pressing ALT-Space like explained here: http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20080208202818AAqUt2R
Have a look at this post for Opera Mini instructions specific for HTC Excalibur: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=5435424#post5435424

*Note: The CAB is large because it is uncompressed and it includes two versions of MortScript inside (PPC & SmartPhone). My CAB will detect if MortScript is installed, if not, it will install the appropriate version. Once the correct version is installed, it will delete ALL of the un-needed content and save about 500KB of space.
Please DO NOT re-host or distribute my CAB file. There is already a website (SoftPedia and SourceForge) that does not require a login to download my CAB and I get really pissed off when people just start distributing my stuff w/o asking me. I still see my old version 1.4.3 on many sites and that's not fair to users that don't know where to get the new/updated official CAB. Just post a link instead of the actual CAB, which quickly gets outdated anyway.

PPC Only - MortButtons as the JZBrowser GUI
----No Default Browser ------ With Default Browser---
----------------------------------------------------------
What JZ SmartMort for?
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
The software is meant for SmartPhones and Pocket PC devices running Windows Mobile 2003, 5, 6, 6.1 & 6.5 using Mort's free application MortScript (link #1 & included in CAB) installed as the macro engine mapped to hardware buttons. Most prominent features of the software are the multi-browser/default browser abilities, as well as, copy/paste/clipboard-history. Please make sure check out the Help sections right in the software menus for detailed clarifications.
Browsing: Opera Mini (link #3) is free, some sites look and feel better using Opera Mini, so I wanted to make it a system level browser with the option to revert to IE as needed (link #4). Support for Opera Mobile (link #5), NetFront 3.5 (link #7), Skyfire (link #8), Iris (link #9), UCWEB (link #11), BOLT Browser (link #12) and jB5 Browser (link #13), Opera Mini for Windows Mobile (link #14), uZard Web Browser (link #15). The software allows for managing a default browser while having many different browsers installed. On PocketPC ONLY (touchscreen), MortButtons (v2.4 & above) can be used as the GUI of JZ Browser script when a link/URL is clicked (link #10).
URL Exclusions: URL Exclusions allows user to always open a certain top-level domain name with a specific browser. So even if the URL consists of a huge string, top-level domain is stripped and compared against URL Exclusions. Example: http://google.com/somedir/somefile.htm is diffent from http://www.google.com/some/something.html, and using URL exclusions, all google.com URLs will automatically be openned with a specific browser of choice. Static browser assigned for a top-level domain name.
Hardware Button Mapping: Three different Pocket PC & two different SmartPhone methods for mapping buttons. Check the Help file right under JZ Settings for further information.
Navigation: FakeCursor embedded to assist SmartPhones run such advanced applications like TaskMgr, even though it's only made for a PPC. Map a button to JZ Action script for the best user experience.
Copy/Paste: using Vito CopyPaste or any of the other method available in the software (MortScript based keyboard shortcuts) (link #2).
Clipboard & URL History: Added ability to select from a list of the last items copied to the clipboard.
IE Favorites: Ability to open Internet Explorer (ActiveSynced Favorites), located under \Windows\Favorites, with any web browser that you have installed. Choose from three different methods of opening "Favorites"; this is for speed purposes considering different devices and amount of favorites in folder.
Java: Esmertec JBed (link #6) has specific and advanced support in JZ SmartMort.
Activation: JZ SmartMort comes with a self installer/remover. Once JZ SmartMort CAB is installed, it will check if MortScript is properly installed, if not, it will attempt to install MortScript automatically. The only feature which will self-activate is JZ Browser, all other features will need to be manually activated by running the JZ Settings. If you get an error then you need to verify that you have MortScript installed.
Troubleshooting: Ability to check your JBed health. Also provide a way to fix what Opera Mobile 9 messes up (URL, HTML, ICONS, etc.)
JZ SmartMort works perfectly on my HTC Fuze (Diamond Touch Pro), HTC StarTrek (3125), HTC Kaiser (Tilt), HTC Wizard (8525) & BlackJack II. I also test on WM2003, WM5, WM6 and WM6.1 emulator ROMs from Microsoft.
I use my software every day and I designed it to be the missing link of Windows Mobile. The point was to try to find a workaround for anything WM is missing. Please make suggestions if you think something is worthwhile or if I messed something up.
----------------------------------------------------------
Installation instructions:
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
1. Use the CAB file to install JZ SmartMort.
2. If installation of JZ SmartMort errors out (because it's not certified & usually on SmartPhones) the best application unlock tool is this standalone utility: http://www.gpcarreon.com/?p=151
3. Mort has allowed me to distribute his FREE MortScript, when you install JZ SmartMort it will place Mort's CAB files in the "MortScript Installs" folder, found underneath your JZ install location. If MortScript is not installed, after JZ SmartMort CAB file installs, installation of MortScript for your appropriate device will begin. When uninstalling, JZ Browser will deactivate itself and restore Microsoft default settings. If JZ SmartMort is not removing properly, let it overwrite by answering "continue installing" when prompted.
4. Under the Start Menu you will find "JZ Settings" shortcut, which can activate/deactivate all JZ SmartMort features. Activation of JZ Browser functionality will happen during installation of the CAB.
- The JZ Browser activator will allow for http/https links, as well as, .url/.html files (links/favorites transferred through ActiveSync) to be opened with Opera Mini, Opera Mobile, NetFront 3.5, Skyfire, Iris, UCWEB, BOLT, jB5, Opera Mini for Windows Mobile, uZard or IE.
- The JZ Button activator will allow mapping of any command or JZ feature to a hardware button and used for copying, pasting and all else.
5. If you don't have it yet, you should. Phone will need to be application unlocked like in step 2. Get JBed from here:
- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=407667
- http://www.winmobiletech.com/092007MidletBible/Jbed.zip
6. Get Opera Mini
- To use Opera Mini 3.1, 4 or 4.1 you must download and install the files. Do not use "Opera Mini plus JBed CAB files" because they have drawbacks. Just install the JAR/JAD file yourself by surfing to operamini.com from your device or the PC. Once installed, opening Opera Mini manually then click a link on the welcome screen to go to a site, this will you pass through all initial screens as they get in the way of the macros. Leave all defaults otherwise. You can create shortcuts for Opera Mini using JZ Settings.
- http://www.operamini.com
7. On touchscreen PocketPC devices, MortButtons (v2.4 & above) can be used as the GUI of JZ Browser script when a link/URL is clicked. Way to download is provided in the software if PocketPC is sensed.
- http://www.sto-helit.de/index.php?module=download&entry=mortbuttons&action=list
8. SKTools does the best job at uninstalling the CAB. PocketMechanic and MemMaid can also be attempted.
----------------------------------------------------------
Functions of the software:
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
1. The CAB installation will initialize JZ Browser as the default on the device. IE or Opera Mobile will no longer be used as the default system browser.
2. A great way to use JZ SmartMort is to map a hardware button to JZ Action or JZ Browser. Many advanced button mapping functions are available in the software.
3. Under the main JZ Action menu
- "Open ScratchPad" will allow user to jot something down quickly and it will be stored in the clipboard so it can be pasted later.
- "Open Selection with Browser Script" (supports many mainstream browsers running side by side and allows to have a default browser designated).
- "Clipboard / URL history" will allow user to select older items from the clipboard.
- "Clipboard Tools (Copy/Paste/Select-All)" (allows you to select a few ways of copying, pasting & select-all then copying) includes ability to run the embedded Vito CopyPaste software, select with cursor & copy to the clipboard (it will ask how many seconds to allow cursor selection)
- "Open Favorites" (Change the Favorites opening method under JZ Settings > JZ Misc. Options.)
- "Communications Manager" toggles hardware devices and connectivity like bluetooth, wifi and cellular data connections.
- "Kill Processes" displays a full process list allowing the user to kill the executables.
- "Open JBed Application List" will let you choose which Java app to run without going into JBed first.
- "Soft-Reset the Device", "Rotate Screen", "Run FakeCursor" & "Help"
4. When doing "Open selection with browser script", "Open Favorites" or running a .url file from explorer, the second script which handles browser logic is called with the URL passed to it. The URL is copied to the clipboard and available in the Clipboard / URL History.
5. JZ Browser handler script is enabled during the installation at which point http/https links & .url file extensions to be opened with JZ Browser script. Either run a .url/.html file manually or use "Open Favorites" using JZ Action menu.
6. The browser handler script allows you to open a URL in Opera Mini (3, 4 & 5), Opera Mobile (8 & 9), NetFront 3.5, Skyfire, Iris, UCWEB, BOLT, jB5, Opera Mini for Windows Mobile, uZard & IE or copy the URL to the clipboard.
- On touchscreen PocketPC devices, JZ Browser script can use MortButtons for a beautiful/touch-friendly GUI when selecting which browser to open a link/URL with.
- You can change the default browser, as well as, how long JZ Browser script prompts to choose a browser before launching the "Default Browser".
- URL Exclusions is a feature which allows the user to default a static browser to a top-level domain. Even if the URL is long, the top-level is detected and compared against user exclusions, if an entry exists, then the URL will be openned with the designated/static browser.
- Browser script will look for Opera Mini in this order, any will work: 4.2 --> 4.1 --> 4.0 --> 3.1 --> 4.2 beta --> 4.1 beta. Version 5 is detected separately.
- Opera Mini control: multiple paste methods, adjust trim units, use different methods to pop the Opera Mini URL input screen and ability to enable/disable "Auto-Complete Address Input
- Ability to create the Opera Mini and any other JBed application shortcut on your Start Menu.

Limitations:
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
1. Launching IE shortcuts leads to the JZ Browser script popping, workaround is to Patch IE Icon under JZ Settings > JZ Browser > Internet Explorer Options.
2. Clipboard history is limited to 1024 characters, but Windows Mobile limit is 16384 so be careful. Storing clips in the registry now and 1024 is the limit. If enough people say something, I could use a file rather than registry to store clipboard content, but then there's always the 16384 limit.
3. New version of HTC Task Manager 2.1.37385 and Manila 3D (TouchFlo 3D 1.2.35348) stops the MortScript popups from going to the background. Found this by upgrading to the Fuze leaked ROM which happens to update those two applications.

- JZ Browser: including a new .Net executable to trigger JZ Browser. The use is for programs like Barcorama that require just an EXE to which Barcorama passes a URL parameter. Passing parameters to MortScript is not like most other programs expect to do, hence this inclusion. The new EXE is called JZBrowserRun.exe and is located in the JZ folder.
- JZ Browser: Ability to register JZBrowser with my new .Net EXE instead of the long MortScript command. Under JZSettings > Browser > Activate JZBrowser with EXE

- Added AppToDate support allowing for easy JZ SmartMort updates over the air.
- WM 6.5 was fully tested on VGA and QVGA devices. Initially WM 6.5 did not work properly because it has more color depth causing Opera Mini and BOLT Browser color recognition not to work due to math rounding of the color.
- Opera Mini: better full-screen support for all colors schemes of Opera Mini.
- Opera Mini: removed ChangeIME setting from Opera Mini due to liability of messing with device keyboard drivers
- JBed: Smarter decision of whether OperaMini or Bolt is running in JBed. Kill JBed option removed from browser options.
- JBed: Added a tweak to allow users to change the JBed Java font size.
- JBed: Permanent patch to stop JBed from confirming security prompts.
- MortScript: version 4.3b15 for PocketPC and SmartPhones is included in the CAB. For compatibility reasons & other benefits MortScript will be forced to upgrade if the installed version is too old.
- Phone-Specific: button hacking for Samsung Jack (i637). Ability to re-map MediaNet and AT&T Navigator buttons.
- Phone-Specific: Long EndKey button remap for the HTC Fuze. Should work for other devices that use \Windows\EndKey.exe as well.
- JZ Action: Clipboard Monitor is now always running. Every 15 seconds it will detect if new content is in the clipboard and make it available in Clipboard History. No visible battery drainage was noticed.
- JZ Action: new option to Submit to Search Engine, which will submit the clipboard contents to a popular search engine and run JZ Browser with that URL.
- JZ Action: Communications Manager toggle switches that allow the user turn on and off the BlueTooth, BT Audio, Wireless and Cellular-Data (like NoData).
- New Start Menu shortcut for fast Wifi-Data toggle. Wifi turns on and all Cellular-Data connections turn off (and vice-versa). Shortcut easily maps to a hardware key.
- Direct Start Menu shortcuts for JZ SmartMort so that AE Buttons Plus (which can't parse LNK files like Windows can) is able to work correctly with JZ SmartMort.
- Touch-friendly navigation; users can modify menu sizes of JZAction & JZBrowser to suit different eye vision.
- Tweaks/Hacks: Tethering hack for AT&T and other carriers, Kaiser Tweak, better JBed troubleshooting, disabling startup animations & sounds and SafeInboxExtender added.
- Tweaks/Hacks: Manila (TouchFlo) 3D v1.x and v2.x Internet Tab hacking. Change default browser plus the banner URL/label. Change the search engine on Manila 2.5 version.
v1.5 *** 2008-12-27
- On touchscreen PocketPC devices, MortButtons (v2.4 & above) can be used as the GUI of JZ Browser script when a link/URL is clicked.
- Opera Mini 4.2 final & beta. Works with any color of skin available in Opera Mini 4.2. Uninstall the older 4.0 or 4.1 versions for JZ Browser to start using the new 4.2 version.
- Skyfire version 0.85.7927 and 0.85.8184 were released. Support for both, OLD and NEW versions of Skyfire.
- UCWeb Browser support added for versions 5.x & 6.x Windows Mobile CAB ONLY (not the Java based version offered at UCWeb). If both 5.x & 6.x versions are installed, version 6.x will be the one used.
- URL Exclusions is a feature which allows the user to default a static browser to a top-level domain. Even if the URL is long, the top-level is detected and compared against user exclusions, if an entry exists, then the URL will be opened with the designated/static browser.
- New uninstall logic which will disable JZ Browser when user uninstalls.
- Added Phone-Specific tweaks/hacks for AT&T HTC Fuze.
- Added Rotate Screen option to the Action script.
- Changed some defaults: Opera Mini will not kill JBed.exe, LeftSoftKey is used as the URL Open Method & Favorites now uses File Explorer instead of MortScript file browser.
v1.4.3 *** 2008-10-05
- Skyfire new version 0.80.6883 was released. Added support for both, OLD and NEW versions of Skyfire. Legacy options will show if OLD version of Skyfire is detected.
- After JZ SmartMort CAB finishes installing, JZ Browser functionality will automatically be activated and browsers will be detected. If MortScript is not present, it will also be installed, then MortScript CAB files will be removed, removing 400KB.
- Opera Mini enhancement consisting of short sleep commands between each backspace that deletes "www." in the Opera Mini address box. Affects some users with slower responding keyboards in JBed.
- Enhancement to FakeCursor code to allow using the powerful TaskMgr on SmartPhones even though it's only made to work on a PPC. FakeCursor function now takes the user back to the window title before FakeCursor logic was ran.
v1.4.2 *** 2008-09-21
- Added support for Torch Mobile's Iris Browser.
- Added support for Skyfire SmartPhone edition and modified Skyfire PPC pixel seeking logic when bar is shown and hidden.
- Added multiple Skyfire paste & open URL methods.
- Separated versions of Opera Mobile 8 & 9. Users can have both installed on the device and detected separately by JZ SmartMort.
- IME keyboard driver manipulation for Opera Mini to help pasting in some cases.
- Added option to Pin Last Used Browser as Default. JZ SmartMort will use the last selected browser and set that browser as default for the next time JZ Browser script is opened.
- Added FakeCursor to allow SmartPhone users ability to use more PPC geared applications.
- Added partial JZ SmartMort resets rather than the previously available full reset.
- Added BlackJack II button mapping for the updated WM 6.1 ROM. Both WM 6.0 & 6.1 OS versions are supported for button mapping on BJII.
v1.4.1 *** 2008-07-19
- Opera Mobile 9.51b (beta) is fully supported. Lots of redundant checks ot see if Opera Mobile is present on the device.
- JZ SmartMort CAB now attempts to install MortScript if MortScript is not already installed.
- The CAB file became even larger but with benefit because it will also remove CAB files which JZ SmartMort installs but does not need, saving about 250KB of space and making the JZ SmartMort installation about 500KB after the clean-up.
- CAB uninstalls removed JZ SmartMort settings, this no longer occur and settings will be left for the new JZ SmartMort version to use.
v1.4 *** 2008-07-07
- Created help files.
- Browser: Skyfire fully compatible now, new scan/detection with fail-over paths (if browsers references don't exist in the usual locations like the registry). If default browser timeout is set to zero, the JZ Browser prompt will be bypassed entirely.
- Opera Mini: full-screen, kill JBed option, multiple URL & pasting options.
- Lots of new options for button mapping. All known registry and link file button hacks now integrated to allow virtually any command to be called up. Also provides ability to create a CUSTOM link file from scratch.
- Changed menus to include menu-returns for easy navigation and better user friendliness. Added letters to Action menu as qwerty keyboard shortcuts.
- Phone-specific menu under JZ Settings which expands button mapping for BlackJack II (Samsung i617) CV/MediaNet buttons, as well as, AT&T Tilt (HTC Kaiser) PTT & Long-PTT buttons. More will be added.
- Creation of Start Menu shortcuts & opening of JBed applications w/o needing to open JBed first.
- 3 different methods under JZ Settings > JZ Misc. Options for opening Favorites. Save a Favorite from the JZ Browser script when you pop a link.
- Incorporated VitoCopyPaste with a timeout to return your directional pad action button back to normal.
- Various speed & optimization considerations incorporated.
- Function to deal with MortScript losing focus (e.g. when Home is pressed while Mort choice menu is running).
THE REST CAN BE SEEN IN THE README FILE AFTER INSTALLING THE CAB OR ON SOURCEFORGE (limited post size on XDA)
Initial v1.0 *** 2008-03-30
Can you explain or provide a link on the DEFBROWSER & MSPIE issue and why a .net executable is needed? I've seen some stuff on DEFBROWSER but not much on MSPIE.
Thanks!

Here's a small piece from my limitations section but I'll discuss below.
When clicking links inside of Contacts on SmartPhones, and E-Mails on PPCs, my .Net executable runs. If IE is running already, you will have to close it by force. Otherwise it keeps using IE to pop links from the two locations I mentioned above, Contacts & E-mails, respective of OS. For now, it completely bypasses EFBROWSER registry key, but I will research further.
Without the executable, if a link is clicked in those apps (depends on your OS and touchscreen or not), IE always opens it, no matter what, never passing it to my script.
EFBROWSER --- by default points to ":MSPIE", so I decided to change :MSPIE instead to use my exe, rather than EFBROWSER. It seemed more appropriate. More importantly, my WM5 smartphone only has :MSPIE, no EFBROWSER, so I tried to make it work on either platform.

This might be one of those platform / device specific issues since on my WM6 smartphone, having IE opened doesn't affect email links from invoking mortscript. My :MSPIE is set for 'iexplore.exe' and : DEFBROWSER was originally set for 'forTMOweb.exe', which is a t-mobile application which I suspect just makes sure IE opens a specific local web page.
I'm still unsure what your executable does exactly. Does it kill IE if it's already running? If that's the case, then the link did correctly invoke a non-IE application. This would then beg the question, how does IE then sense a link is being invoked and capture that url?
UNRELATED: I don't see an option to disable smilies when posting. How did you get : D to not look like ?

My EXE: accepts the command line argument and passes it to my Browser script.
My EXE will prevent Internet Explorer from EVER running a link (unless IE is already running, I'm working on that little issue). I helped somebody on BrightHand who said links from "e-mail" pop in IE all the time, even with my script installed. I checked my WM6 PPC emulator and it did exactly as he said. The WM5 SmartPhone emulator (like my 3125) pops IE also when openning a link from a Calendar item. You should try on your WM6 SmartPhone device, open a "web page" from Contacts, your SmartPhone will use the EFBROWSER" value and pass the argument to it - no matter what. And since command line arguments are not accepted in "EFBROWSER" nor ":MSPIE" but my EXE can accept that argument (usually a url file or http link) and forward that argument to my JZ Browser script.
BTW I do reset "RAI\EFBROWSER\1" with my install script to ":MSPIE" value - which is Microsoft's default on their ROMs. This guarantees that I somebody messed around with DEFBROWSER, I set them back to default and insure that my EXE runs.

Perhaps you missed reading about Menneisyys' initial problems with WM6. He originally tried specifying EFBROWSER as:
Code:
"\Program Files\MortScript\MortScript.exe" "\Program Files\MortScript\OMInvokeAndPasteScript.mscr" url="%1"
but it didn't seem to take the parameter. I guessed that perhaps the variable %1 is not being expanded when EFBROWSER is used and the OS is just passing a space and the url to EFBROWSER. So the OS tries to run something like this:
Code:
"\Program Files\MortScript\MortScript.exe" "\Program Files\MortScript\OMInvokeAndPasteScript.mscr" url="%1" http://google.com
The killer is the automatic space before the url. Mort script only accepts named variables (name=value) and not just the value by itself. So the url is not passed to mortscript since it wasn't named.
So after a few tries, this worked:
Code:
"\Program Files\MortScript\MortScript.exe" "\Program Files\MortScript\OMInvokeAndPasteScript.mscr" url="
Yes, that is an unclosed double-quote at the end. By luck, mortscript accepts url as a named variable and I guess takes the end of line as the closer for the quote.
So the OS runs this:
Code:
"\Program Files\MortScript\MortScript.exe" "\Program Files\MortScript\OMInvokeAndPasteScript.mscr" url=" http://google.com
As for the space before http://, opera mini will work with it there, but I had some code to remove it for cosmetic reasons. That is why you see this at the beginning:
Code:
if (substr(url,1,1) eq " ")
url = substr(url,2)
EndIf
I have always updated EFBROWSER but it looks like contacts and calendar use :MSPIE. When I updated that key as well, the script came up. Thanks for the tip. If IE is running, links from contacts and calendar will still use IE. This must be due to some internal optimization where contacts and calendar detect that IE is running and passes the URL to it directly.
I hope I did not misunderstand the problem and just rambled on for no reason. It's not the first time I've written pages in response, then upon review, realize I misread the original post, and then control-a, delete.

Wow, you did understand, every single bit. I'm probably dropping the EXE in light of this info. I am however going to stay away from DEFBROWSER (but will reset that value to MSPIE) and will use MSPIE since that means pocket IE --- and that's what we're replacing here and SmartPhones don't have DEFBROWSER key (at least not my 3125)
Thank you badbob001!!!

Use the Install script and do the Troubleshooting\JBed option. Let me know the results. This is not .Net by any means. The problem exists probably due to multiple JBed installations. Some JBed cab files don't change all necessary reg keys and leave it pointing to the settings of the previous install of JBed.
A way to resolve this for sure is to uninstall all JBeds then reinstall, after which you can install Opera Mini again.

Running the troubleshooter gives the same error. I see it is pointing to a registy location, which i have no problem manually changing, but where is the "selector.utf" located so i can point it in the right direction?

Definitely do point it to the correct UTF file, it will make the error go away.
Usual location is \Windows\Appdb\selector.utf check first though. You're looking for jbed.exe and in the same folder should be an APPDB folder.
I will add some more logic to the troubleshooter but let me know how it goes.

I was about to change the registry when i thought... what if i just copy the file to where it wants it to be. Copied the selector.utf to the location shown in the screenshot i had and now it is working perfect. May just be easier to include the file (or refrence its location) and just copy it there then. I never had anything installed on the storage card, so the link to this location suprises me; but this is windows, so i know to take everything with a grain of salt.
Thanks again

Even though that works, it's not the right thing to do. Pointing the registry to the correct place is the way to go, trust me. You put masking tape around the problem, fixing the registry is the permanent fix.
I had this working with Opera Mini 4.1 beta, but the final came out. So I uninstalled the beta. Checked links and they were back to opening in IE.
Went back to the Install script and selected 4.1 as my browser, and now links popup a MortScript dialog saying You do not have this application installed. Is there a fix coming for this soon?

Badbob001 is correct, just choose 4.0 for now.
I have plans to release version 1.3 possibly by this weekend. I wonder how people feel about me distributing in a .CAB or .EXE format? Or should I just leave the ZIP file which is quite a manual method?
10/20/2008: You may or may not notice that I haven't updated the script in a while. I had lost my windows mobile phone (t-mobile shadow) many months ago and I guess that killed my enthusiasm and any practical way to do testing (process detection doesn't work very well on the emulator). It also doesn't help that mortscript is frozen in time as well. Since I don't really see many Windows Mobile Standard devices coming out and I refuse to use a phone that requires a stylus, my next phone will likely be an android device (which interestingly enough, has an opera mini port).
There are probably a few bugs lurking around in the code for some fringe cases, but as always, you are welcomed to examine and update the script to your needs and it would be very appreciated if you would post a link to the update here. Also, I think JZ's SmartMort script is still keeping things interesting so you may want to check that out.

INTRODUCTION
You probably know of Menneisyys' original thread of making Opera Mini behave like the default browser by responding to links in emails and other locations. A component of making that work is a script to launch opera mini and enter the url. I've been enhancing my version of the script to make it easy to everyone to use.
While this script has some powerful options, its main purpose is to make it easy to launch opera mini directly and use opera mini to handle links.
At first run, an auto-detection process will try to automatically figure out how to launch opera mini and update your device so links are opened by Opera Mini. No more worrying about what jbed.exe parameters to use. Launching the script directly will open Opera Mini so you can just reference the script in shortcuts and launchers.
In previous versions of the script, you had to manually guess how much delay is needed before opera mini is ready for the script to enter the url. This script has method to detect if Opera Mini is running and if it's ready automatically.
If anything changed on your system that affects Opera Mini, just run Setup to re-detect your settings or tweak a setting. No text editing of the script required.
FEATURES
Make Opera Mini your default browser
When you run the script, the script will automatically find and launch Opera Mini. Optionally, update your registry so links in emails, contacts, appointments, documents, and other apps are handled by Opera Mini. Optionally, create a Start Menu shortcut with icon to launch Opera Mini.
Works with both Opera Mini 3.1, 4.0 and 4.1. Landscape and fullscreen mode is supported. Will work with 4.1 with Auto-complete Address Input enabled or not.
Quickswitch
Invoke the script with OM visible and you can have the script automatically option open the current page in IE and vice versa. This is handy when you encounter a page that would render better in the other browser. For example, in Opera Mini, you encounter a page with a youTube video so you quickswitch to IE to view the video.
Hotkey
You can assign a single hardware button to the HotKey shortcut and have quick access to most script features, including text select, copy, and paste commands.
Customizations / Special features
Enable prompting of what action to take when invoking a link or starting the script, such as asking which browser to use or sending the url to the clipboard. Timeout option available.
Add your own custom applications as choices to respond to links, so you can add browsers like netfront or opera.
Exclude list for sites that you want to automatically open in an alternative app like IE, such as your provider's private-network MMS server. Also good for automatically using IE to download files that Opera Mini may not handle correctly. Prompt and timeout option available.
Patch selector.utf file to eliminate permission prompting by midlets.
Create shortcuts to all your midlets in your Start Menu.

UPDATE1: 05/15/2008 11PM EST 0.10b sp1: found some bugs with quickswitch if Use Direct Address Input is enabled. Fixed and re-uploaded.
UPDATE2: 05/16/2008 12PM EST: 0.10b sp2: got quickswitch working on my WM6 PDA by introducing context-menu methods for copy, paste, and select-all. Of course, only touch-screen devices have a context-menu. Also, you can choose different copy, paste, and select methods for use in OM and IE, which is important since context-menus don't appear to work within my JVM. Also added prompt and prompt timeout options to quickswitch [details]
UPDATE3: 05/20/2008 1:30PM EST: 0.10b sp3: more quickfix tweaks, more commands when using quickswitch prompt so the prompt is more like a context menu allowing to perform an action with the current url or task-switch between browsers. Also added a sample bookmarks.mscr script that you can add to your list of commands and use with quickswitch prompt to have a unified bookmark list between IE and OM. [details]

TO DO / KNOWN BUGS:
On some platforms, Mortscript will crash if it tries to read the clipboard containing a large amount of text (around 16KB+ on my smartphone). This is easy to do if you are editing a large document and do a select-all + copy. My script will detect the crash and offer to clear the clipboard contents so mortscript will not crash again if you repeat the same action.
When viewing a script dialog window, like a prompt window or a setup window, it is possible for another application come into focus and you will lose access to the script window. A common way this can happen is when you receive a phone call and the call window appears. My script will automatically check if its dialog windows is in focus and if not, it will try to bring it to focus. This usually works but I've seen where the script only manages to get the title bar to appear but the rest of the screen still shows the previous application. User inputs will be focused on the script though you can't visually see the results. If this scenario occurs, just wait a few minutes and mortscript will eventually bring the dialog window back in focus. If you can't wait, you can kill mortscript via HotKey > StopScripts or manually run \sub\stop_scripts.

Be sure to download the version you want. I'm keeping some of the previous version up in case of bugs or undesired behavior in the latest version.
REQUIREMENTS
Jbed JVM
Jbed 2.1: (recommended)
http://www.modaco.com/index.php?act=attach&type=post&id=23899
Jbed 3.1:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2127317&postcount=65
Jbed 3.1 has a bug on smartphones where if you switch away from jbed and then switch back, the screen may not refresh. Workaround is to manually start the JVM, select Menu > Background Running, and finaly start Opera Mini. Script setting 'Kill JVM First' will need to be set to 'No'. This is also a good method to allow you to switch away from Opera Mini while it's still loading the page and come back when it's done. This will work for Jbed 2.1 as well.
If you have multiple versions of jbed installed, then the script may not correctly find the version you are using. You can run the Setup application and manually select your JVM executable and the selector.utf file that catalogs the midlets you have installed.
If you start the script to start Opera Mini and briefly see a flash of white, then either the script has chosen the wrong JVM/selector.utf pair or you recently installed a JVM that is of a different version from your last one. In the latter case, your currently installed midlets may not work with the newly installed JVM and you may need to uninstall all your midlets and reinstall them.

Opera Mini (3.1, 4.0, 4.1 beta, 4.1 Final)
http://www.operamini.com
To get the signed version of Opera Mini 4.1 Final so you're not prompted for permissions:
On the device, use IE mobile and go to http://mini.opera.com
The version shown is probably 4.1 US English, No signature, which is probably what you don't want so don't download that. If you're fine with the chosen language, skip to step 5. Otherwise, see the next step.
Click Download in another language.
Now a list of all language versions appear so choose one. I prefer to download Opera Mini 4.1 International for foreign language websites.

Mortscript (4.1 or higher)
http://www.sto-helit.de/index.php?module=page&entry=ms_overview&action=view
INSTALLATION
Download Mortscript (4.1 and up), Jbed (2.1 preferred), and Opera Mini (signed version preferred) and install them. Make sure you can run Jbed and then run Opera Mini. You should run Opera Mini at least once to get pass all the initial installation and license agreement screens.
Extract the script contents to anywhere on your device. The zip file contents are stored in a \StartOperaMini\ folder so you can just extract that folder like to '\Program Files\Mortscript\StartOperaMini\'.
In version 0.09b and 0.11b, the OperaIcon.dll is updated with better or additional shortcut icons. You may not be able to directly overrwrite the existing OperaIcon.dll file so rename the file to something else like OperaIcon.dll_, and then transfer the new OperaIcon.dll. A reboot may be needed before the old OperaIcon.dll can be deleted.
To support the new icons, the shortcuts have been modified, so you may need to update your shortcuts from the correct ones in the script folder or run Setup and toggle the Start Menu shortcut option to No and then back to Yes.
Also, you may be asked for permissions to load OperaIcon.dll when you access your Start Menu and the OS tries to load the icon graphics. Just allow it and the message shouldn't appear again.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Open file manager, navigate to where you copied StartOperaMini to, and run StartOperaMini.mscr. If this is the first time you're running the script from the current location, then the script will initialize by detecting your JVM and Opera Mini settings and ask you some initial setup questions.
One important question is if you want to register the script so the script is run when you click on a link in emails, documents, etc. This step is optional, but is helpful in making Opera Mini behave like the default browser. If you skip this step but have another version of the script installed elsewhere that is registered, then clicking an email link will open up the other version of the script.
When Opera Mini opens up, installation is complete. Note that version 0.11b does not support the settings from previous versions so you may need to revise the initial settings.
If you want to run the script from an application launcher, either link to the 'Start Opera Mini' shortcut or link directly to the StartOperaMini.mscr script.
If you want to use the HotKey feature to easily access other script commands like copy/paste, you should map a hardware key to the shortcut 'Start Opera Mini Hotkey' and then customize the HotKey function in Setup. View the help file if you need more information.
If you need to change any settings, just run the shortcut 'Start Opera Mini Setup'. View the help file if you need more information.
LIMITATIONS
When opening links to local files or to sites on private carrier networks (portals, MMS server), Opera Mini will fail to get to that address. Run setup and add the host to the exclude list of those links will open in IE instead.
If Internet Explorer is opened, links in contacts and appointments may automatically still use Internet Explorer. Workaround is to kill Internet Explorer first, which is an option in the Setup program.
Some paste and control methods may not work on certain devices, so try different settings in Setup.
UNINSTALLATION
Run the Setup Program and then select the Uninstall option.
Delete script files from the script folder. You may not be able to directly delete the OperaIcon.dll file since the system may still be using it to display the shortcut icon. Rename the file to something else like OperaIcon.dll_, reboot, and then it should be deletable.
THANKS
Much thanks to Menneisyys for giving birth to this breakthrough idea and for JZ SmartMort for bringing new innovations to the table (check out his JZ SmartMort tool). Much ideas and help is from the community so it's really due to everyone's efforts.
Feel free to enhance the script to your own needs and use it in your own projects.

Hi badbob.
I kind of like the script that you made way back when (Nov.?) that opens up a popup that lets you choose between PIE and OM and the clipboard. It also works for 4.1. It would be neat if the installation script allowed that as an option, and also detected Opera Mobile (and skyfire in the future) and would allow that as an option. Having said that dont make these additions for me as I am happy running the old script. Just thought id give you a suggestion.
Great script..does what it's supposed to and does it well....do you have any issues with it being included with a rom?
Thanks for the script; nice little workaround using the color of the upperleftmost pixel. One thing I've noticed is that I have direct address input turned off in my Opera Mini 4.1. However, I must check "Yes" when asked if it's turned on. Only then will it work properly. Don't know if I'm just reading wrongly, but other than that, it's working perfectly.
By the way I'm using the JBed_20071119.3.1_3dMod_HeapSizeFix_v2_wm6(lovetz1) cab.
It found my jbed.exe, even though it's in a "Jbed3dmod" folder on my storage card.
Overall, it's working great now that I marked off "Yes". Thanks!

No problems. Go ahead.
Replaced
Code:
jbed_exe_ini = Part(RegRead("HKCR","jarfile\Shell\Open\Command",""),"""",2,1)
with
Code:
jbed_exe_ini = replace(RegRead("HKCR","jarfile\Shell\Open\Command",""),"""","")
jbed_exe_ini = SubStr(jbed_exe_ini, 1, find(jbed_exe_ini, "jbed.exe")+7)
So finding the location of jbed.exe from the registry doesn't depend on the quotes being around the command.

When you have direct address input (DAI) turned off in both OM and the script, at what point does the script fail?
The following two block of instructions is what the script does when it thinks DAI is turned off.
Code:
LeftSoftKey [open menu]
LeftSoftKey [select Enter Address]
Code:
[select all text]
[paste url over selection]
LeftSoftKey [click OK]
By just being lucky, leaving the script with direct address input turned on will perfectly work even if OM has it turned off. It's just that the extra keys sent don't cause any problems. In your working scenario, having the script think DAI is on will essentially put an extra 'enter' after the first instruction block and then another 'enter' after the second block. Which 'enter' is the one helping you?

It's relatively easy to slap on the menu option to my script, which tmknight did here.
I'm sure many "power" users will want total control and it's pretty easy to make a script that defers the decisions to the user. But I wanted to try a script that is a bit more friendly and tries to handle decisions on its own... a script that I won't be afraid to put on my wife's phone. Easy is hard.

Sorry, forgot to clarify. I believe the first enter is helping me, because: if I choose the "No, DAI is Off" option, the script will open up Opera Mini, and stay at the main screen for a few seconds. Still on the OM main screen, the script will say something like "The input box was not found after _ seconds", then ask if I want to go through setup again. If I choose the "Yes, DAI is On" option, everything works normally. Opera Mini opens, the input field is opened, the link is pasted into the input field, the page loads, etc.
Thanks for sharing but on my xda is a german software running called "DK - OperaMini4 Addon" with mortscript 4.1 that does the same as yours. and its out since months. so where are the big news? the only better thing seems to be the autodetecting when mortscript starts running, but you write that this don` t work in mini Landscape mode. but everyone i know uses this mode.
04/11/2008 0.05b
- (Opera's built-in) Landscape support:
I now test pixels in the upper left (0,0)and upper right (screenwidth()-1,0) to determine when Opera is running and what orientation it is. I'm not too sure how consistent the upper right pixels are on different devices, but it works fine on my wm6 standard qvga phone. Knowing the orientation is important since in landscape, you have to now press left or right instead of up and down to open the address bar drop down.
- Slightly improved address input:
The script originally sent [leftsoftkey] to open the opera menu and another [leftsoftkey] to select the 'enter address' option. Since I restart Opera Mini if an url needs to be pasted, the initial cursor is already on the address input box, so I just need to send one [enter].
At least on my device, if Direct Address Input (DAI) is on, a rare case occurs where I need to send an extra [enter] to have Opera submit the url. It doesn't appear to cause any ill effects if two [enter]s are sent every time when using DAI.
- Improved tolerance of mismatch DAI setting:
Some people may notice that if you have DAI (Direct Address Input) disabled in Opera but enabled in the script, the extra keys sent by the script don't cause any problems except for being a micro-fraction slower.
For the opposite scenario where if you have DAI enabled in Opera but disabled in the script, the previous result was that the script will complain that it didn't find the Address Input window. Now when it doesn't find the Address Input window, it will assume DAI is really turned on and send the extra DAI keys. If that doesn't work, then you it will complain. But if does, it'll continue with no problems. The *next* time you run the Opera Mini, the script will say that it thinks you told it the wrong DAI setting and offers to run the setup wizard for you to enter the correct settings.
- Start Menu Shortcut with icon
The setup wizard will add a 'Start Opera Mini' shortcut to your Start Menu and it will have the Opera icon:
Kevxross here: http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=7346 embedded the opera icon in a dll so it can be referenced by shortcuts. I've included the .dll in the .zip, so just copy it to the same location as the script.
- Ini file renamed
The only manual step that users may need to do is delete the .ini file if they want to easily get the setup wizard to run again. But I noticed that the built-in file manager will hide the extension of files and so users can't really tell the ini file from the script. I've renamed the ini file to <scriptname>_ini.txt. If you're upgrading, the script will automatically rename the existing .ini to _ini.txt.

Heh I understand completely. I was able to successfully modify your previous script, so its good by me
here`s the link to the software that does work like yours[/B]. This is out for 2 or 3 months but your welcome to develope the same twice::
Makes as direct shortcut to Opera mini including opera icon and opens urls with mortscript 4.1 ("Opera Mini addon direkt"):

Is there a version of this script for smartphone? It works great for PPC, but copy and paste doesn't exist on WM 6.0 standard and fails on my BlackJack II.

We are so happy you found a similar script months ago. You've posted about it twice now within 6 posts of each other. Please stop harassing the author of this one as several of us are quite happy with his script. Does the old script still use wait states? The new one doesn't. Does the old one automatically find your jbed even if it's on a storage card and find the slot opera is installed in no matter which one you used? The new one does. Finally his current version works with landscape. The entire page you referenced is in a foreign language and I for one appreciate support from an author who can communicate without the need to use babelfish.
Extra carriage return?
Hi badbob and all.
Thanks to everyone who contributed to this script. I'm lovin this.
I'm running Opera Mini 4.1 (v. 4.1.10781, 20080401 to be exact) on a Sprint Mogul / HTC Titan. After installation and first-time setup the script correctly launched OM and pasted in the link. However the page did not load. I had to manually hit the enter key to make it start the loading process.
After poking around in the script for a while I managed to make it load automatically. Around line 320 in the StartOM subroutine I added a wait between the two sendcr commands.
Code:
if ((opera_version_ini eq "4.1" AND direct_address_input eq True) OR (tried_again = True))
sendcr
[B]sleep(wait_time_between_keys)[/B]
sendcr
endif
I don't know whether I fixed a script bug or my phone just has special needs.
Great work i was thinking of the same thing today.
Thanks alot.

I'm not quite sure how to classify this issue. My code originally only had one sendcr in that section. Then on the rare occasion, I'll see the pasted url in the address field waiting for me to hit enter to submit it. I do notice that everytime I see this happen, the last character in the pasted url is a square box, which means a character the device can't display. I figured, what the hey, lets add another sendcr in there and be done with this problem.
But I guess that didn't really solve the problem. I'm now guessing that I'm not allowing enough time for the device to receive the entire text from the paste before moving on to the next command. So maybe the device is still processing the long url text being pasted and ignores the later key commands. And maybe it also needs a little more time to switch from the text input screen back to opera mini.
I've added more delay after the paste and after leaving the text input window. See version 0.06b for this tweak and see if it helps. I've also taken out the second sendcr. If it works reliably, then the delays fixed it.
Code:
SendCtrlKey("V")
[b]Sleep(500)[/B]
SendLeftSoft
if ((opera_version_ini eq "4.1" AND direct_address_input eq True) OR (tried_again = True))
[b]Sleep(500)[/b]
sendcr

Problem Resolutions and FAQ:
------------------------
1. How to configure Hotmail's Pop3 Access in default messaging application of Windows Mobile without using Windows Live?
Solution: Create a new email account as usual and use these details:
Step 1:
Email Address: Your email but dont use @hotmail.com, instead use something else like htmail.com or something like that. Please not that this is only necessary if your email address end in @hotmail.com. Other Windows Live users dont need to do this.
Password: Your Password.
Step 2:
Uncheck the checkbox : Try to get e-mail settings automatically from the Internet
Step 3:
Select "Internet E-Mail" as your service provider.
Step4:
Enter your name and an account name.
Step 5:
Incoming Mail Server: pop3.live.com
Account Type : POP3
Step 6:
Username : Your email address (full email including @hotmail.com or any other windows live address that you have. This time give it correctly)
Password: Your Password.
Step 7:
Outgoing (SMTP) mail Server: smtp.live.com
Check the box "Outgoing Server requires authentication" and "Use the same username and password for sending mail."
Click "Advance Server Settings". Check the boxes "Use SSL for Incoming Mail" and "Use SSL for outgoing mail". Select "The Internet" as Network connection and then click "Done."
Step 7:
Select the Automatic update interval you want or manual for no automatic mail checking.
Click Finish.
Now open the account in Messaging and click Menu>Tools>Options. Click the account name, click "Edit Account Setup" and change the email address to the real one.Click Next, Next untill Finish and then click ok to close the options menu.
Thats it. Hotmail will be accessible from messaging now.
2. ActiveSync Starts up Again and Again Automatically Even When the Phone is Not Connected to USB cable or Bluetooth
Solution: It happens for some strange reasons that i haven't been able to find but for now there is a workaround for it.
For Users who use Exchange server with ActiveSync will have no problem if they have set the update schedule to manual. Otherwise, if you are using the push mail feature of exchange, then ActiveSync will run all the time for syncing and that is very normal.
For User who dont use Exchanage server, they should create a fake server and then set the update schedule to manual to prevent ActiveSync from running on its own. Here are the steps for that.
First of all, configure ActiveSync with your PC if you want to sync with PC using the usual method. After that:
1. Open Activesync on your phone and from the menu choose Configure Server...
2. Enter any email address. Clear the checkbox titled "Attempt to detect Exchange Server Settings Automatically". Click Next.
3. In server address, enter localhost or anything else. Click next.
4. Enter any username, password and domain name. I mean random strings. Also check save password checkbox.
5. Clear all the checkboxes in the "Data you want to synchronize" list. Click Finish.
6. Open Menu>Schedule. Here set both the dropdown lists to "Manually" and clear both the checkboxes. Click OK and close ActiveSync.
Plus as an additional step, delete the unneeded notification for Active Sync. To do that :
1. Open DotFred's task manager (Task Manager 2) and go to the Notifications tab.
2. In "Notified Programs", search for repllog.exe. You will most probably find 3 entries for it.
3. Scroll horizontally and out of these 3 or what ever entries, find those which have the entry "AppRunAtTimeChange" or "AppRunAfterTimeChange". Delete these entries, using the third icon from left on the bottom toolbar.
ActiveSync wont give you any problems after this.
3. Audio Booster doesn't allows entering Equalizer settings and checking the equalizer checkbox + Missing Audiobooster Option in Audio Managers Menu
Solution: This is not a problem and happens with some versions of AudioBooster and Audio Manager, if their version numbers are different. To resolve it :-
Just start AudioManager, let it build its library a little and then play a song for minimum 5 seconds. After that start AudioBooster, adjust one of its sliders a little. Then soft reset your phone, and both the problems will be solved. What happens is, they create their respective registry settings on first start and after that everything is fine. In Original ROMs from HTC, since on first boot the Customization applications runs, it sets up the registry itself. But even with that, you have to reboot your device anyway.
Useful Add-ons for this ROM
First of all, these apps are not mine, i am just posting these here for convenience. All the credit goes to the respective authors.
1. HTC Home version 2.1.1005.722 with Directory Fix by Schen
This is the best version of HTC home i have seen yet. It has almost no memory usage problem, takes only about 1 MB or so of memory. The original HTC home in the WM 6 original p3400i ROM was a memory hog and full of memory leak related bugs. This one is with 6 tabs, an extra one for music player management from home screen. And it saves its files in a seprate folder out of \windows so it doesn't makes your device any slower. A must have in my opinion.

2. ya man, mms is missing! I'll try to find the mms composer and cook a new version. I dont know how i missed it. :| For now i've attached the cab file of the latest version taken from kaiser, i think. [CAB DELETED AS THE COMPOSER IS ALREADY PRESENT IN THE CURRENT VERSION]
3. USB to PC's second mode is not working. But its connecting fine. Isn't that so in your case?
4. Audio Manager working fine on my phone. What error it is showing??
audio manager it's show it already open
no disk storage mode on usb to pc normal mode working fine
also ram is about 22-18mb
Hi Sumit,
Thanx a ton for this ROM. Just flashed. I didn't have any issues while booting first time, which I can confirm.
Audio Manager is opening, in my case at least. Can't play and check now, since I am in office
As far as USB to PC option is concerned, can confirm that I am able to Sync. Not tried the second option yet, since I am in the middle of syncing my contacts and appointments. Will confirm later on.
The only concern, I feel, is lesser RAM as compared to other ROMs. But peformance in terms of folder browsing etc., is brilliant. May be a tradeoff.
Again, thanx a lot for the kitchen too. But I am not really sure, how to work on the same. Though I tried, didnt' work out. So, gave up for the moment.
Thanks, again.
@krazy_about_technology
does this work with the old Gene with SN HT7XXX...
thanks...
Wait for some hours guys, i am cooking a new version with fixes.
I've integrated Arcsoft MMS, File Open and Save dialog Changer for default windows dialogs and old icon of USB to PC.
Removed the SQM (Software Quality Metrics), USB to PC icon of Elfin as it was not working.
Anything else guys?

I would say, so far this ROM has been impressive. Great work mate. Waiting for the fix.
Just one comment though. I don't know, many will agree with me. Will it be wise to remove Office and Adobe Reader out of this ROM? Both of them are available in cabs and can be eaily installed in Storage card. I was thinking that removing the same from the ROM will save some valuable space in storage. Just a thought.
why start a kitchen for new gene
hi

This ROM, in my knowledge, is the first rom for New GENE which is complete in all respects. It has all the features of WM 6.1 in it (only Welcome Center is removed as it was of no use at all). Plus i have also included some essential utilities. I wanted to include some others too but was neither able to find OEM's for some nor was i able to create with the tools i have.
Main Features:
* First WM 6.1 ROM with Fully Working version of Windows Live
I think i was right about the 2 HTC certificates that are not present in any other ROM. These are responsible for the non-functioning of Windows Live on these ROM (I think so but i could be wrong.)
*HTC's original touch driver from Elfin (Touch 3G) so all the default Windows Mobile apps have touchflo support
*Good FileSystem and Application Response timing: Windows folder is accessible within 3 seconds from any explorer application and application response time is also fine. Will be better in next releases.
*The Packages included are:
Packages Added by ME:
-------------------------
Jbed Java Runtime

Both of them are available in cabs and can be eaily installed in Storage card. I was thinking that removing the same from the ROM will save some valuable space in storage. Just a thought.

Buddy, i wanted to make a ROM that is complete in every sense. I can think of removing Adobe Reader but removing Office doesn't makes sense as it is one of the foundation packages of Windows Mobile. This is one of the features that makes Windows Mobile platform unique. so i don't think it would be a nice idea to remove office. And you have about 44-46 MB of free space, i think thats a good tradeoff for a ROM that is quiet complete in features. Anyways, if you still want something like that, i will also uploaded the full kitchen, you can use that to generate ROM for yourself, with only things that you need. I have included what i need and what i thought most other ppl will too.
No offence buddy, just clearing my point
does this work with the old Gene with SN HT7XXX...
thanks..

No it wont buddy. Its for new gene not the old one. It should work on devices with ONBL 1.10.000 or higher and Serial No HT8xxx. If you have such a device with SPL unlocked either using olipro or orefkov's method, you can try it. This ROM only contain the OS and Extended ROM modules so your spl, radio etc will be untouched even if it doesn't works. Just flash back your current ROM and your phone will be working again.
Hey guys,
Check out the updated, fixed version. I have included :
1. Arcsoft MMS composer.
2. File Open dialog replacement for default windows mobile dialogs. These include facility to browse the file system freely, but it need to be enabled from the Settings>System menu first.)
3. SIM Manager Icon added to main menu.
4. Normal USB to PC icon instead of the icon taken from Elfin ROM.
Problems:
1. There is a fake, second, non-functional USB to PC icon in the Settings>Network control panel, but fix for it and the guidelines to use it are included in both ROM and Post #2.
2. The ActiveSync issue remains.
Please post your views about this updated version guys.
Important
Is their someone from Delhi or Noida reigon with an old gene who would like to test the ROMs if i make a clone of this for old gene? I dont have the phone for doing the debugging.

First of all dear, thats not my ROM. thats lomlom's. secondly, i think you gave gone through only first stage of unlocking your spl. just go thru the tutorial again and try using the orefkov's gene unbricker as described in the other threads. Otherwise, if you have tried it, please describe what you exactly did and what exact result you are getting while using orefkov's method.

Buddy, If your ONBL is 1.17, how come your mobile is an old gene. As far as i know, 1.10 and above ONBL is only present in new gene devices sold as p3400i in asia region and may be p3400 in other parts of the world. Please double check your mobile box for correct model detail and also post the version of your SPL, GSM and OS.
The serial no is present at the back of the mobile behind battery i think and is also there on the original box of the mobile, on a sticker on one side. Post these info then only i can suggest whether you can flash it or not.
Thanks for offering me help, but i need someone in my local vicinity for that as testing a ROm may require a lot of flashing and reflashing. Neither can i upload roms so many times nor is it fast enough to do that from a distance for you. But i appreciate that you offered your help. Thanks
[size=+2][APP][Update 2009/04/08] SSMaHo 0.0.4.0 [/size]
Guys
I reimplemented the old SSMaPa. completly new technology.
There aren't many new features till now, but the new architecture allows further changes..
some new features
- differing between mail and sms now possible
- added some new replacements
- landscape mode fully supported
- should be working generic on all manila versions
I also added gsgetfile.dll as default file chooser for ssmaho
How to use:
- if you was using old ssmapa, do first a 'full restore' in ssmapa!
- Extract all 4 files and copy them to a folder on your phone (the folder has to stay on the phone.. I recommand /programs/ssmaho)
- run ssmahogui.exe
- click on the first button
- click on load configuration
- click on "Start INIT-Assistant"
- There are two modes, prefer the fast init, only if this is not working, choose the manila file from the slowinit box. Click on Fast Init (or maybe slow init)
- There should appear something like: "CreateProcessW offset found: 0x002d4240, ..." If that's not the case and "unknown exetype" appears, then use slow init.. In some cases you have to click 2 times... If this isn't working too, then sorry, ssmaho will not work on your device.
- click close
- click on "start assigner mode"
- minimize ssmaho (click right top corner, fast, or start -> today)
- Go back to manila
- click on every element you want to replace in manila
- there should pop up a window 'Assigner'. enable in minimum following checkboxes: Active, EXE Name, all News
---- Match condition commandline is useful for hooking sms inbox and mail inbox
- with the button "..." choose the new file
- click ok
- assign as many as you want.. windows are not working, but there are more than in ssmapa.. also landscape alignment should be working
- when you're done go back to ssmahoGUI and click on "Stop all".
- go to shortcuts, I recommand enabling all...
- click on "Save Configuration"
- click on About (or don't do it )
- close the program
- You have under programs new shortcuts: SSMaHo Attach / SSMaHo Detach. click on "ssmaho attach" and the new programs get called when working with manila.
--> You have to execute the attacher everytime manila crashes. If you use autostart it should automatically attaching after softreset, but not after a crash.
I don't think that this tool is able to destroy something on the phone. Never mind, I'm not responsible for any damages.
[size=+1]Upgrade instructions[/size]
1. copy all the new files to the same directory
2. Click on "Install new HookerDll"
2.1. If this fails, click on "Load Configuration" -> "Stop All"
2.2 Reclick on "Install new HookerDll"
3. ReDo the initialisation. You should use FastInit. There should appear 6 offsets
4. Ready.. You can now use ssmaho...
With version 0.0.3.0 I implemented a real inline patch (hooking a function of manila). a generic solution for smt. like this is heavy... theoretically it should work (tested on a rhodium and old manila)... but as soon as htc changes smt deep, it won't be working anymore..
[size=+1]Tricks[/size]
- Everytime the first button is available, click it... you'll then have lesser "where the hell"-messages
- if you have problems with one function / one hook, deactivate it with "manual configuration"
[size=+1]Important[/size]
- The new inlinefunction-hooking of manila can only be searched with fast init. Also, fast Init isn't as fast as before, because it has to search more data... be patient after clicking on it..
Please donate for me! I'm a apprentice and use a lot of my free time for working on the computer, to be able to create such tools.
[size=+2]Thank you [/size]

Changelog:
Version 0.0.4.0 (2009/04/08)
- Improved slow init. ssmaho now fully working on all devices where manila.exe isn't read-accessible (file is fully readable in ram )
--> Full support for Dutty 2.6 xtreme !
- added crash handler
--> on new phones, evertime manila crashes (not restart, crash) ssmaho gets reattached automatically. This feature is like all other event-based and not polling anything..
- fixed some bugs
Version 0.0.3.2 (2009/04/06)
- Removed exe limitation.. all filetypes are now supported
Version 0.0.3.1 (2009/04/05)
- ssmapat2hook.dll doesn't get removed after install
- improved --with-wait function. probably it helps, probably not..
- filename is no more case-sensitive
- last filename will be shown in fast-init box
- change on assigner: clicking to cancel will do the original action, clicking Ok will supress it
- added architecture for an external api interface (if your're interested, contact me)
- added new patch (only for developer usage, on page change)
Version 0.0.3.0 (2009/03/28)
- After hours and many evenings of work, I am proud to present the new ssmaho-version!
- Added special-infile-patch, hooks every subview of manila.
- Rhodium calendar / Call History and much more gets triggered (altough, on old manila versions, call history isn't hookable)
- bugfixes, autosave, ...
- added manual offset changer for professionals
Version 0.0.2.0 (2009/03/19)
- Added new hook (click on sms / mails / maybe rhodium calendar)
Version 0.0.1.0 (2009/03/16)
- First official release

P.S. Excuse me for my english...

Thanks a bunch, Svenso... I am a long time SSMAPA user, and I am very happy to see this new app.
So will this prog allow me to have wmp open instead of tf3d music player when i touch the music tab in touchflo? also will this software work on the new manila?
cheers
That´s indeed nice improvments. The question is if this app supports the upcoming "XBmod Manila Rhodium port". If it is you´re my hero!!
Really cool tool. I hope that no bugs will be found.
Hmm, previous version of this tool used manila's files patches, I suppose, but now we have to check an autostart option... that means that you patch manila in the RAM, but not the file. Does your app hang in memory or it starts after a soft reset, patches and unloads?
Testing now... not sure if I am clear on what everything on the pop-up assignment screen does.
*edit* Ok, I think I've got it. I have successfully mapped the "time click" on XBMod's HD manila.
If I click on the call history button it brings up the call history instead of bringing up the assignment screen. I'm assuming this element cannot be mapped?
Yes unfortunately you assume correctly.
But SSMaHo is a better base to develop on, anyway.

I'm already loving it. The fact that it works on the HD manila is wonderful.
*edit* How does the "differing between mail and sms" work? If I click on the "all messages" button on the sms tab will it just remap this button?
Hi,
Thanks a lot for all your effort with this tool. It's a great idea and hopefully it'll work on my device in one of the next versions. Stumbled upon your tool yesterday and read the whole thread of the previous tool, and now tried this one. But it seems there's still something going on with this manila version, your tool doesn't like.
When I press "Start Assigner Mode" I get a popup saying "thats bad. Proc not found -.-"
I'm using a new HTC Touch Cruise (09). It already features the new "Footprint Tab". In case I can send any file to you to help, please don't hesitate to ask.
Until then: good luck with your exams!
What you mean a new "HTC Touch Cruise"?
Unless I miss something Touch Cruise is an old (obsolete) model...
change music player?
Ok i searched the old thread (alpha version) as well and found no answers as to whether this software could replace the manila music player in touchflo.
Could someone please confirm or deny whether its possible to change it to say windows media player?
thanks in advance
Why don't you just try?
i tried using it on the rhodium port but it doesnt seem to work :-\
im just following the instructions and it cant initiate the manilla.exe properly
great work none the less for the HD manilla! =D

The Rhodium port is probably manila2.exe. Haven't tried it yet, I'm just guessing.

Because I'd like to hear from others who have tried it first and hear about their experiences in case theres a major problem or other.
And now with the above posts i now know that it doesnt work with the new manila and therefore i dont have to risk messing up anything on my phone.
Hoping in the future that Rhodium/Manila2 is supported as it looks like a great app!
Cheers
This application cannot mess anything with your device.
Try to manually attach first, see if it works, then choose to autostart.
I've try it in my jade ( aka touch 3g ) and works perfectly !!!
i replace time link with better g-alarm !!!!
tnku very much.
Many thanks.
I've tried in my HD with Manila-Rhodium (Dutty exreme 2.2 ROM). After Start Assigner-Mode there isn't any pop up window
Any help.
Thanks
Not working at my Touch HD... My current ROM is Touch of HD v3.4.1 and when I click at Start Assigner-Mode it gives back the error: Master failure. where the hell you put my dll in?!
I placed all the four files in a folder (named it SSMaHo) at the root of the phone!

Hi,
many thanks for this App, it is realy great! But, on a Samsung Galaxy S3 (ICS 4.1.2) mini I'm getting the following error message:
Unexpected token (Postition: TEXT access denied)
@2:1 in [email protected]
On my Xperia Sola (ICS 4.1.2) the App is running flawlessly.
Any idea what the problem could be?
Many thanks in advance!
