I have created a simple currency converter application with HTC Sense Interface Style.
Exchange rate downloaded from Yahoo! Finance. Downloaded exchange rate cache for user specified period.
All suggestions are welcomed.
Tips:
Do you really need all 153 currencies code supported by Yahoo!?
If not, copy the CurrencyList.csv from the application directory and trim down the file to suit your needs.
This can speed up the startup time too.
Thanks:
Thank you very much eboelzner shared his Sense Interface SDK.
This application is built upon Sense Interface SDK.
Thank you very much the AlphaMobileControls at CodePlex.
Thank you very much stickfigure design the application icon.

Very nice app, working well on my TD2!
works fine on my HD2
could you maybe add the calculation in both directions at the same time
eur - $
$ - eur
otherwise you have to scroll so many times to have both informations
This could be really great if it would be possible to choose more currencies to convert, between 4-6 dependening on available space on the screen, just like the Windows Vista/7 currency gadget
Can you please add this??
Really nice app ! Thanks a lot.
Can I make two suggestions ? :
- an Invert button, next to the submit one, to add the possibility of inverting the currency,
- possibility to translate the app.
Great job !
Nice app!!!

I think .NET Compact Framework has been installed on your device.
If you're using cooked ROM, it may be cooked into the ROM.
If we believe the developer is taking courses with Yahoo! Finance (from the same place they pull tab Shares HTC Sense).

Agree with all the above
1. option to have the Scroll more faster/ smoother
2. Option to search the currency by key type
3. option to remember last 3 uses (like in Babylon)
there are some minor stability bugs related to the fact that he doesn't connected to network, but I'm sure that you already aware of those

This application is good. It download exchange rate from Yahoo! Finance.
Hi, I really like your app, I've been waiting for a nice free currency convertor for ages. I live in the UK but do most of my work in Sweden so the three currencies I use are Swedish Krona (SEK), British Pounds (GBP) and Euros (EUR). So this morning I invoiced for a job I did yesterday:
Mobile Currency Converter said:
Convert this amount: 15000
From this currency: Swedish Krona (SEK)
To this currency: British Pound (GBP)
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
It gives me:
Mobile Currency Converter said:
Exchange rate: 9.5364
15,000.00 SEK = 143,046.00 GBP
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Now don't get me wrong, I'd love to of made 143 thousand pounds yesterday but I'm fairly sure my client wouldn't be paying me that much ^_^
The online convertor I normally use says it should be £1417.26 so I'm not sure what's going wrong. I'm fairly sure I haven't messed anything up since there's only three fields in your app for me to play with (excluding the Menu option).

I'm sorry about that, the calculation in the application is based on the data return from Yahoo!. For your case, Yahoo! really return 9.5104 as the exchange rate. Please see http://finance.yahoo.com/q?s=SEKGBP=X
At the moment, I have no way to solve this problem. Sorry about that.
When I look at the Yahoo Currency Converter it says the exchange rate is 0.0952 which is the same value as the Yahoo Exchange page but divided by 100 and possibly rounded up. Might not be rounded as it could just be a slight difference in the time the two values where made by Yahoo.
Thanks... that is what I missed...
Won't Work - HD2
Hi I get the following error message - EndOfStreamException. I have net3.5 installed
Edit - Uninstalled and then reinstalled - same problem. Then uninstalled and reinstalled then placed a value in the amount to be converted. App then worked properly and no errors.
Seems to fail if you don't load a value into the currency amount when the App is opened for the first time. Hope this is useful
Too bad. It is not working.

How do you configure email accts and facebook?
TeleSketch Facebook Upload
TeleSketch will use WinMo messaging to send it's drawing.
Step 1 (Setup WinMo Messaging Email Account)
For e-mail, TeleSketch will use your Pocket Outlook email account.
Go To WinMo Start Menu -> Messaging -> new E-mail Account
Step 2 (create Facebook's m.facebook Upload Email)
For facebook, you must first setup your Facebook's upload email account,
go to your facebook account, then 'Profile' -> 'Wall' -> click 'Attach Photos' -> 'Upload a Photo' -> 'Upload via email' -> take note for your 'personal upload email' normally like this '[email protected]'
Then from TeleSketch Menu -> Send -> Facebook -> enter your 'm.facebook Upload email' just created before -> also enter your account for sending email from step 1 above.
Notes:
TeleSketch will also use WinMo messaging to send this facebook upload email, so be sure you can send email from pocket outlook before.
For MMS, TeleSketch will also use WinMo messaging. Please be sure you can send MMS using Pocket Outlook before.

Nice sw !
Have downloaded and tried Tele-Sketch and it works fine on my HTC Touch Dual running WM 6.1
However, I have two wishes for you to enhance the sw further:
1. A way to delete a note from within TS
2. A possibility to open TS with the last opened note

wicked app,nice one
i have just downloaded and had a quick try.
it seems totally awesome. there could be many times when this is needed.

TeleSketch Updated to 1.1.0.15
Good News,
TeleSketch was updated to 1.1.0.15
Mostly bug fix for those of you using non-English Device
Updates 1.1.0.15
- Bug Fix: 'New Canvas Color' previous color at border
- 'About Box' contain weblink
- Bug Fix: Installation destination '\Program Files\TeleSketch' moved for non-english user
- Bug Fix: Configuration files at '\Program Files\TeleSketch' moved for non-english device
- Bug Fix: Temporary file '\Program Files\TeleSketch\tmpmms.jpg" moved for non-english device
No start icon
I found the reason why no TS icon showed up in the
Program start list. It is a localization problem
again! TS now saves its start icon/lnk file to a
folder named \Windows\Start Menu\Programs. In the
localized version there is no such folder, in
this version it is \Windows\Start-meny\Program, so
the system does not find the TS lnk file.
So don't hardcode the destination folders, please.
Using Wizard on WM 6.5.1 and the only problems I see thus far have to do with the camera picture. The photo does not fit the screen. It seems that no matter if I choose "fit to screen" or not the photo does not fit the screen (only a smaller portion of it).
Other than that (and the program icon need some work LOL) it works and is fun to be able to send drawings via MMS.
Thanx
TeleSketsa (aka TeleSketch) Start Menu Item & Camera Problem
Install Problem (Start Menu Item) fixed in version 1.1.0.16

SHCameraCapture() appear to ignore the requested resolution.
To remedy this problem, change the camera resolution in the camera application:
Exit TeleSketsa

Changelog Anuvadak 1.1

+ Added dictionary items with translation
* Nouns

+ Added new awesome application icon for Anuvadak - Many thanks to tnyynt
+ Added support to show all indic and Asian languages. Shown in the video
The last enhancement was difficult to add but it happened.
There is a trick to it.
Anuvadak now uses Arial Unicode MS font to show all languages. Unfortunately I cannot pack the font with the application as it would be illegal. Also the font file is around 28 MB. But no problem.
The font is packed with all the versions of Microsoft office 2007 onwards. It is located in Windows> Fonts directory by name Arial Unicode MS. Download the font from the windows (PC) directory and copy it your windows phone > Windows > Fonts directory. Install the app, Restart the phone and bingo!! all languages show up now
For people who don't have access to Arial Font, I am attaching a another Unicode font (free). Download that font and repeat the copying instructions as above and it should show up nicely. One thing to remember, when using the alternate font remember to change settings from the application menu to choose Bitstream cyberbit.
The drawback of using this (Bitstream cyberbit) font is that it doesn't show every character in every language. Some characters from Arabic, Persian and Chinese are missing. Hindi is completely missing.
If anybody has any problem, let me know and I will try to help you as much as I can.

amazing app..will add a video for it soon..
Many Thanks!
Works great on my HD2. A quick comment, however:
I normally use Google translator for looking up how to say Chinese phrases. And, of course, Chinese uses a character system. While the characters show up just fine in the app, I do not have the option to view the Romanization of the characters (how they would be pronounced), though this is offered on Google's website.
Any plans to implement this?
Edit: Nevermind, Romanization is evidently supported, I guess Chinese just isn't working for it.
Other than that, beautiful app, defiantly keeping it on my must-have list.
Thanks guys for your comments....
Let me know the bugs, features wanted.. and I will update it.
Now working on Speech to text... might take some time.. so hang on

... Some kind of app memory. It's a li'l tedious to have to choose your langs on every launch. Maybe a config file in the app dir, or a few reg entries.
And, by "Speech to text" do you mean speech recognition? 'Cause, that'd be purrty *****in'.
Thanks!!

Sure.. next minor release will see your suggestion .. (i dont know how I missed that lol )
And yeah you guessed it right ... speech recognition !!!! its the next big thing I am working on ...
This app is great i just tried it and it worked perfectly!
This is probably a little bit off topic... but The onscreen keyboard you have in the screen shots looks amazing. Where can i find that skin if you dont mind me asking?
This app is really fantastic. And so useful.
The UI is nice. Text to Speech (or speech recognition) is a great feature and works very well with respect to the main languages (French, English, Italian, etc.)
Ability to copy and send via SMS is cool also.
So.... Thank you very much
Some things could maybe be improved:
- Could you kindly add the ability to PASTE some selected text in order to translate it.
This would be an important and useful feature. For instance if ever you wanted to translate part of a sentence taken from a webpage...
- Improve the icon of the app.
- It seems that some special characters are not supported for some languages (e.g. Vietnamese, Japanese, Greek).
- Memorize the last selected languages once you exit the soft (instead of English/Spanish by default)
- Ability to send via Email also?
ehy man, amazing app! thank you so much!
thanks a lot for this app !!!
can't download...
it just keeps telling me to wait at the download page. could you upload the cab here?
Wow! This program is genial and single in pocketpc.
Sorry for my english.
Very nice program. I wonder if it is possible to split chinese into mandarin and cantonese.
Very nice program. Thank you a lot.
How to save settings (Enable Instant Translation, Languages, ...)?
Thanks so much for such a lovely app!
This app is great but it doesn't load proprtly on my i900 - WQVGA
the X buttom is very big ..needs some tweeking
Fine tuning needed for black theme
Great apps. Thanks.
Too bad it does not play well with black theme (white text on black background).
Feature "Romanisation" is disabled. Is it bug?

Description
Quick Links are okay, but you can not have a quicklink for everything. Or are you just conservative and want to have a launching tool on your PPC? WiMoRun enables you to run programs typing in their name or a keyword. You can start all executable applications within the whole device. With the T9 panel you can choose your apps even faster.
It runs on Windows Mobile > 6.0
If you have ideas to improve this app just let me know.
Features
- run programs by typing their names
- tag programs to get an alias i.e. calc will open favourite calculator
- autocomplete list in realtime
- application cache to boost speed
- T9 input panel for faster searching
- skinnable UI

Feedback
Feedback and reporting are desired, new feature requests, too.
I'd say it would be useful, especially if you save a list of recent applications, which is missing in 6.5. Dotfred's task manager has a run tool, and I use it all the time (it saves mru's).
I think with the Auto-Complete feature this app will be a time-saver, specially when you want to run or open something from Windows folder (you have scroll a long list to find what you want).
Thanks for your efforts!
Version 0.2 is online.
Improvements are a finger friendlier control-size and an autocomplete feature.
I like this app idea a lot.
Here are my suggestions:
- As you type, it presents a filtered list (filtering in real time) all the apps that fits the match as you type. Then you can just type the first few letters and select the app. Think of how Windows 7's start menu works. You start typing and it immediately gives you matches and gradually filters the list down as you type.
- A custom T-9 input panel, which can work with the above filtering feature as a more finger friendly alternative. It would work exactly as the dialer's numerical pad does to filter out your contacts by the letters associated with each number.
- Custom keywords for apps. Basically you can associate keywords with apps. So let's say you use Pocket Informant as you calendar app, but you just want to type 'calendar', you can associate it and it will launch it.

Genius idea!!!
Thanks for fast update!
I try it now.
Great application, really useful! Looking forward to updates.
Great Idea, could better
Hi i like the idea,
Autocomplete in this form is nice but imho its not practical enough, i still have to know the exact name of the app.
Have a look at "lauchy"for the pc, when you type it lists all applications that have the letters in them you type, regardless of the position.
So if you type "expl" you would get a list with "explorer" and "file explorer".
Cheers Marco
Thanks for your first feedbacks.
I will try to improve autocomplete and give a list of programs to chose matching the criteria. I also like the idea to tag programs. A T9-like input panel will also be on my list.
Very good idea but not a new one. This is basically a launcher program. Everyone, check out ZLaunchy program, it has t9 keypad and runs programs, contacts, docs, etc. I have assigned it to a hard button.
ZLaunchies Description says it only uses the programs in the start menu. WiMoRun is designed especially for those programs you might not have in a quick link program. running docs, contacts or other stuff may be integrated, too here
This is off topic and I apologize for that.
the pictures in the first post have fingerkeyboard2 with wider keys than the default one. I have been searching and trying to understand how to install a fingerkeyboard skin with wider keys (the default fingerkeyboard2 are smaller than the stock HTC HD2 keys).
Again, I apologies for this off topic remark, but this is the first time I found someone that has an example of what I have been looking for in a long time... and I have searched the forum.

Please use private message instead. if you write me your email I can give you the CAB I use

Version 0.4 is out now. I integrated an autocomplete list substituting the one line autocompletion. Buttons are now replaced with softkeys. The program is also able to save tags/keywords now. If you type in the keyword, the linked application is opened.
a T9 panel is not yet implemented, I think that needs a little time.

Yes you're right.
but zlaunchy has a variety of features which your app should have as well(search via t9, search in contacts etc.).
zlaunchy is a great model for for winmorun since it's so lookalike.
As I remembered there was a win mobile smartphone app that had a lot of functions.
looked for files, sms, programs, contacts, it even calculated a formula if you inserted numbers(ex. you inserted 2+2 and it returned 4 on the result list)
I lost that app when I changed to winmo pro since it was shipped only with that phone model.
It was called VOQ from the sierra wireless VOQ phone.
Version 0.5 posted.
Now all executable files are held in this list. It doesn't matter if it's in the Windows or Programs directory.
To avoid long startup times the program generates an application cache. It can be renewed out of the options menu.
have fun
edit:
just fixed a bug and promoted it to 0.5a
Update again
Version 0.6 features the heavily wanted T9 input addon

version 0.7 is out now, but only for VGA. graphics scaling for lowres devices does not work the way I want it to. Maybe I'll find some nicer controlls, too.
custom skinning will be available in one of the next versions
Nice job! Here's an ico group, if you want it. It looks pretty good in the start menu (it's just hacked from shell32.dll).
I have created a simple shopping list application with HTC Sense Interface Style.
It's the first application I post in xda-developers.
All suggestions are welcomed.
Thanks:
Thank you very much eboelzner shared his Sense Interface SDK.
This application is built upon Sense Interface SDK.
Thank you very much the AlphaMobileControls at CodePlex.
Thank you very much stickfigure design the application icon.

Screen Shots
Hi, is it possible for you to post some screen shots?
It is actually a very straightforward application in the sense style. First line is an edit field where you type in your list item and press on a button to add the item to your list.
Once an item is on the list you have a check box. If you check the box, presumably you have purchased the item.
There are three filters. One to display all items, one to display items that are checked and one to display items that have not been checked.
SQL CE Compact 3.5 SP2 attached.
Best regards,
-boggsie
Screenshots
I think, need an option to clear all list.
PS Sometimes, if list is long, long tap menu don't work
PPS Dont know what i ve done, but now i have message "Cant add item to database" ))
Thanks boggsie posting the SQL Compact cab file.
Because I wonder whether I can distribute MS software in a forums, I didn't post the attachement. Once I have privilege to post external link, I will add link to download SQL Compact in the first post.
Thanks sergiorus testing my application and the screenshots.
For the errors you found, would you mind please send me the log file "MobileShoppingList.log" which inside the application folder to me for investigation.
Bugs
1. Sometimes, if list is long, long tap menu don't work
--> I can reproduce this issue, bug fixed.
2. Dont know what i ve done, but now i have message "Cant add item to database"

Requests
1. I think, need an option to clear all list.

Have you installed the prerequisite SQL Compact 3.5? (Download link posted in #1)
There should be a log file inside the application directory which records errors occurred.
If you don't mind, you can send the log file to me (Private message) for investigation.
94 downloads for v1.1 program. Any feedback for me to evolve the program to 1.2?

Hi,
App looks good but the installation stopped me in my tracks.
I downloaded the SQL Compact 3.5 as linked in the first post, but all it did was install a load of files and folders to my Program Files folder on my laptop. It didn't install anything to my Topaz, and there didn't seem to be anything obvious to choose from in the Program Files folder. After copying the cab for the main app across, it obviously wouldn't run (I assume because the SQL thing didn't get installed).
I'm not the biggest noob around here (at least I hope not), but I found the installation too difficult. Would it be possible for the app to check for prerequisites on first run, and ideally download the necessary cabs? Or could you provide a download link here to a CAB for the prerequisite? As opposed to a 22mb MSI file that doesn't even create a Start Menu entry!
Would still like to try it if I can get it working ;-)

Thank you for your feedback.
I attached the SQL Server Compact Edition SP2 cab file in the attachment section and changed the prerequisite download link to download the attachment.
Welcome to try the application again.
Thanks, works now after installing the prerequisite.
Performs as expected, no bugs or anything that I've noticed. Compared to the other shopping list-type apps that I've tried it's pretty good; it's nice and simple. I suppose if you wanted to develop it further you could have multiple lists (eg Groceries, Pharmacy, etc). But from my point of view it would be important that you can still just load up the app and start adding items straight away.
Is there any way that the startup time of the app can be improved, or is that just down to the SQL and the platform? At the moment it takes a bit longer to startup on my Topaz than it's nearest competitor (Winmo's built-in Notes). Perhaps an option in the Menu to minimise, as opposed to exit? so that it's still running in the background and it can be picked from the task manager? This way it encourages users to leave it running in the background so that startup is quicker.
Anyway really like the app, thanks a mill!
Hi, does it has autosort function of items (items I have bought go down of list)

No such function at the moment.
I will add this feature to the wishlist and develop this in v1.2.
feature wish: A "masterlist" where you can store all your favorite products would be nice so that you don't have to write the same again and again to have a new shopping list.
Just go into your product list and tap your needed products and you have the shopping list finished.

wheresmybeaver, Thank you for your feedback.
I considered your suggestions,
1. Multiple shopping lists (eg Groceries, Pharmacy, etc) --> I will develop a Shop Master List function to allow user to group shopping items by different shops.
2. I will try to improve the startup time of the program.
3. Funtion to minimize the program --> Actually if you tap on the X/OK button at the upper right corner, the program should be minimized. It's one of the WM default feature.

Update:
Version 1.2c
>>>>> clic here to get more details on XDA ou here for the website.
Version 1.1
- new pictures, upgraded for best view in WVGA
- new options system to cut off sounds (or not)
- same links in my webserver for new versions
- cab files for version 1.1 are compressed... tested ok on my i900 and on the emulator
Type: freeware
Description:
When we are in a group, it is not always easy to remember the order to be make at McDonalds...
If we are driving and that we should speak to a microphone, with kids screaming...!
And as we do not always pencil or paper in hand ... here is the solution (and only to date as I know), Windows Mobile, to be able, easily, take note of the order, read it after directly.
And also, why not send it by SMS... if you want your friends (or your wife) to speedy go to McDonalds !
As for many others developpers, I do something I occasionnaly need... So now, simply clic what who wants, then read the final when to ordre...
If you like this, feel free to buy me a coffee (even in McDo !)

Use:
Its usage is simple:
- Click on the image of the desired section:
1st line = Sandwiches - Beverages - Coaching
2nd line = happymeal - Menus - Salads
3rd line = Dessert - Breakfast - Specials
- In the category "Special" are of special items, limited in time
- Once in a category, click on the image to increment the counter (1)
- If you want to remove an item, click on "-1", then click on the item to a decrement
- If you want to erase all selections from the page of the current category, click on the trash
- If you click on "List" (top right), you arrive on the checkout. Here, you can completely erase button ("Trash") or send the command shown by SMS (button "SMS")
- To return to the first page, click on "House"
- To change the language, click on "Options" at the bottom left
Language: french, english
Version: 1.2c
Date version: 20.08.2010
Creator: Corwin
Resolution: from WQVGA (240*400) to all upper (autoredimensionnement)
Working on: i900, HTC HD2
Operating System du Mobile:
Windows Mobile 6.1.x: yes
Windows Mobile 6.5.0: yes
Windows Mobile 6.5.x: yes
Remarques:
- Not all possible items are listed, because the whole choice, for all McDo all around the world will be really to huge to manage... If you need something which isn't listed, you easily could go in the Special Category and use the last button, with the Clownface, to have listed "unlisted meal", so you could remember your personnalized order
- The choice items are those that are underway in Switzerland, dated 08/15/2010
- Images and Names remain the exclusive property of McDonalds
- Consider the nature, use your garbage cans for WMC
- Future developments: List of languages by xml file, list of specialties from xml file ...

..::-- Présentation réalisée via i900Prez 2.6 --::..
as a vegetarian, i highly doubt that i would use this for myself , however i did need to leave a note of kudos for the app and idea. You should see how many different fast food/restaurants you can add to it. I think it would be an incredible aid to anyone in an office that is a part of a lunch bunch or has to do the runs. Good Show!
I agree! Very good app. And like ezzie said it will be gr8 if you(we) can add to this app other offers, like ordering pizza with custom addons and eventualy cost summary.
Great job mate, very good.
thanks.
As I don't have found how to dynamically create pictureboxes and count variables, I don't know how to make .xml files with pictures !
I'm planning for the next version to add the possibility to have and xml file with "specials" items listed, but I still have to found how to increment/decrement counter and to delete only one selected listed item.
As I can do this I will be able to open this to anything !
Another problem is that many shops will make bundles (like menus,...) and no one has the same kind of products. As pizze for example, if you take 100 pizzerie, each with a Carte of 20 pizze, you will find about 1800 different kind and names of pizze...
(by the way, you give me an idea for pizze, this will be my next app ! Just to find list of besides items to add to the pizza... will show you the result in a few...)
nb: sorry, but what does it mean to leave a note of kudos ?

if you want your app in Farsi language..
i can help u..

Can some one port this over to droid. Awesome app.
Simple concept... Simple app... But damned GOOD idea !
Bravo, cela me donnerait presque envie de retourner dans un Mac Do pour le tester !
Nice app, very nice app and a serious potentiel app for ordering and remembering orders.....but, get rid of the sounds, horrible....
If it could be done with a easy configurable config file, it could be even better as it´s not the same food for each country or have peolpe help you with the different countries menu etc.
Very nice app. Will try this

hey
cool app...............if you made this for every fastfood resturant this app would have serious potential for group lunches on the office.......if you can somewhat get people to help you create a menu all of the fast foods that would be a great app to have......and if you have 2 go to more than one place to get all the food....would be cool to have more than one list
thanks.
working on the 1.2 version, which will include dynamic listing of specials items, with abilities to show pictures too...
For creating a list of all fastfood all around the world, damn... then I will ask for 0.001 cent for each one...

funny application
as an italian, especially since when I got with my gf, I rarely go to fastfoods. Actually, last time has probably been years ago, so anyway, I really hope you have some sort of revenue from mcdonalds, since you're basically advertising for them, and giving a free service to their clients, so I think they should compensate you in some way.
Nice inovative app. Thanks bro...

But may I suggest you something ?
- A way to add myself a meal (because they often make new products then remove them).
In french :
En clair, y aurait-il une possibilité de rajouter soi-même un menu (étant donné que souvent ils créent de nouveaux sandwich puis les enlèvent de la carte) - genre CBO, 180, etc...
yes... in the next version you will be able to do this... this version is for now in testing phase.
oui, dans la version suivante... qui est en phase de tests (déjà!!)
