Hi guys,
as I've been around for a while, I decided to share a bit of my work with you, too.
So feel free and use this small program if you like. No warranties as usal from my side.
This Bootmanager has a quite intuitive UI. You get an quick overview of the phone status and can select your boot profiles which you can manage inside the UI as you like (see screen shots below).
Additionally you can have voice announcements, SenseUI control, easy backup & restore of startup folder and program settings and an extended information screen. On this info panel you can find all important information about your phone.
This app only requires .NET CF 3.5 to be installed on your device.
The Pattern of the folder structure is always "\_AutoStart_" & selected Foldername. You can change the folder names in the UI settings tab. The folder "_AutoStart_Backup" is created by the program if you back up your current folder. All other "_AutoStart_" & X folders are created initially, but you want to choose which startup links are in there (folder names are case sensitive!). Just ensure the "X" matches your folder name in the ui settings for this specific button exactly. The default buttons are for Sense UI and XDAndroid. Their respective folder names (in the settings tab) are "Sense" and "Android", therefor I have "_AutoStart_Sense" and "_AutoStart_Android" folders on the root of my phone. In the "_AutoStart_Common" folder you have all the shortcuts which have to start no matter which profile is selected.
Tipp:
I have overclocked my device continously (stable) using this method (with this App) and with SmartBoot I can easily select between OC and non-OC configurations.
For your convenience this Windows Mobile® freeware app supports AppToDate, an easy to use application update program. You can obtain it freely from here.
Please download from Post #2.
Thanks to eboelzner for his great Sense SDK!

Download SmartBoot only here please. (Please no mirrors or similar!)
Please feel free to leave a comment or bugs found.
PS: I will not provide any localization support. Just english language.
If you want I can create a "Light" Version without sounds and stuff, just mention it.
Also if there is demand for it I could create a step-by-step guide.

Downloaded just fine for me. I plan to experiment with Android soon, and this will come in handy. Thanks.

I wanted to give the community something back, even though it is not much.
But maybe somebody finds it useful, I just thought I could share. Enjoy!
And please don't be too harsh as this is my first publication. There are more to come if it goes smoothly.
Please download from Post #2.

big thank
Thanks, good idea & pretty app. I'll try it.
thanks, look like a very powerful and useful program.
downloading is a bit slow, but smooth.
This promises to be a great app.
Would you consider adding a "safe mode" boot option with it? Just wondering.
And thank you very much for sharing.
hello guys. what is XDAndroid? sorry for being a noob
Thank you for your kind feedback

You currently have two options for a safe mode:
1. Tap "Do nothing" at the initial screen (will exit immediatly -> no boot programs)
2. go to settings and enable "Confirmation", then click the button of your desired boot environment (and you can decide on each short cut -> safe mode).
@All: Thanks for your kind feedback! You are welcome!
PS: If you choose option 2 from above and tap no for at least one shortcut, you will get an "Ooops! Something went wrong!" message at the end.
You can ignore this, as it simply means not all shortcuts got executed.
Where is this app made? Itsn't really clear to me

I've got the same problem.
Hi AndiCP,
i think you have forgotten the xml file. I mean: \Application Data\SmartBoot\Configuration.xml
I have made a empty file. Then the message is:
Fehler: There is an error in XML document (0, 0).
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
OK, that's clear.
Next point: you have written that you support only english, no problem.
But Fehler in the popup's is german . Please fix it. And also upload an XML file please.
Also the \_AutoStart_ folders are not created automaticly. Is this the way how should be?
Have we to do this on our own, or is this a litlle bug we have found ?
BTW:
i have allways installed the right .NET version from MS.
EDIT 1:
you say on your private website that the folder names are case sensitive.
Then it must be: _AutoStart_Backup
In your screenshot: _Autostart_Backup
Sorry to say that the app is NOT working on my phone at this moment.
And i'am not alone. There are more people with problems. Please fix it.
At least sense gives problems on restart the phone.
I had to de-install the good idea app. Also some strange problems
on de-installtion. It was not possible. Only with many know how
i was able to de-install it.

Hello twoply and mr.First,
your program error probably comes from a different Startup folder or restricted access to it.
I can't reproduce this error, but I guessed and put an additional entry into the registry ("HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\SmartBoot\Autostart_Folder").
If your folder is not "\Windows\AutoStart\" you can enter another path there.
I also added a reg key to customize the initial sound file ("HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\SmartBoot\Sound_Load").
Please download the updated version.
Further you don't have to softreset in order to try or set things up, just go to your start menu and use the shortcut.
Finally I hope this helps you, please report your results here.

Hello mike2nl,
first of all "Fehler" means "Error".
Second, "Configuration.xml" not found comes from the SmartBoot Directory not being created properly. (Bug: Updated version 1.01 fixes this, then you will also have all the other folders created automatically on first launch).
Third, "AutoStart" is correct whereas in the screen shot you saw before was a left-over of an earlier version, which doesn't matter, because if it wouldn't be found it will be created during backup process anyway.
Last but not least, I can say nothing about "strange problems".
Thanks for your feedback!
Please download the updated version 1.01 or just run AppToDate
Hi AndiCP,
thanks for your fast reaction. I will test it again now. Downloaded and then install it. Will report later here....
EDIT 1:
after installing the app and two times a soft reset the app blocks sense more then once. Strange...
I had to de-install the little app. This was an adventure again. All known ways are not working.
Only massive working in the windows folder and registry cleaning has helped out of that issue.
On which system you have developed thius app? If there something special done for the SonyEricson?
EDIT 2:
after re-install the application i had denite the folder move for the autostart things. Strange, because
then the app will workig. If i have selected Sense UI i get an error message:
Ooops, something went wrong
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Is this normal? Why you say it is something went wrong? But so far so good. Will test further now.
EDIT 3 (info only):
i have changed the autostart folder in the cab from \Windows\Auto Start to \Windows\Opstarten (dutch version)
EDIT 4 (question):
Have we to copy the apps/shortcuts for the \_AutoStart_xxx\ folders on uor own?
- if the answer yes, no problem (i think thats the way for now)
- if the answer no, then is something wrong
Possible you can think about that issue for a future version of your helpfull app.
Further i think you must add the descirption from your private website here to the first post:

Indeed, my Startup folder has another name. I changed the path in the registry, and now everything works.

to Edit 1: I can't reproduce and never had something like that, sounds like you have problems in your rom anyway as you are the only one reporting this.
Info: Its a simple and standard setup cab (auto generated). Nothing special or changed, it only copies the files. It works the same way on every windows mobile version.
to Edits 2&3: as I said, please check your Autostart folder and change it accordingly.
to Edit 4: Yes. I won't ever include a filemanager!
Hi AndiCP,
i have downloaded the last version yesterday. Installed it and it is running.
At now withour any issue. I think the changings are the solution. But with
un-installation i have my issues. Also when sense is off. But that is not
really a big issue, yet. I will test this again after the next hard reset.
I think this comes with the next CHT test. We, the team, are really haevy busy .
So far, excellent app, that helps me to organize my startup issues on all
CHT (e, s, ...) issues. Thanks for that. That brings us a good effort.
Will report this to co0kie (CHT) and Dark Ninja (GTX).
BTW:
possible you can tell me (PM) where you get or has made the sound files.
I will change something for my needs

UD1..6RC2:
files are downloaded to /mnt/storage/download - if u downlaod a file with tabled - then copie to the update dir.
Otherwise make sure u use the windows disconnection function before remove the device to prevent corruption.
Google mail:
not sure if u mean that - but try:
long hold (like adding a widget) -> shortcuts -> email (or gmail,.. however it's named) -> select the account (will add a shortcut to the account directly)
Google music:
which version are u trying to use? some 3.x version worked fine - while I never got any 4.x version runnig propper on froyo - while runns fine on my gingerbread cellphone
PLEASE POST THIS IS GENERAL FORUM NEXT TIME AS ITS NOT DEVELOPMENT RELATED - Thank you
thanks for the help and sorry for posting in the wrong forum
sorted out the update
but i dont have gmail or email shortcut option ( i do have it when trying to replace an item in launcher bottom menu)
cheers
michel
hmmm - only thing i can think of is trying reinstall gapps - e.g. using arctolls
just bricked my 101 so i can't look it up atm but the method described above works on my phone wiht launcher pro...
perhaps anyone else knows it better then me ?
good luck
will fix my device
I have an older version Player Pro(2.2).When I try to upgrade it to the latest version using another .apk file of version 2.3,it gives this error“Parse Error : There is a problem parsing the package”.I cannot update it from the android market as I have not purchased the app.Any idea why is this happening?
i get this same error with other apps i try to install...particularly when i know the app isnt for my device....ima google it
I don't think a site made for developers will want to help you fix a problem with a pirated app. If you really like it that much, buy it, it's not like it costs a fortune. I bought it and never had any problem updating from the market.
Sent from my wi-fi toaster.
I'm trying to find a fix for the same thing. But mine is not a pirated app it is an app from a tab I have and a couple off apps that came with it I can't find on the market or anything that works like them I waisted a lot of money trying to find one and thought this is just pointless. I tried resigning the APK but no go any ideas?
This errors occurs when the apk is built with different API level than API level your phone supports. Ex: If your phone is having Gingerbread (2.3.*) and your app is compiled for tablets (honeycomb), you see this error.

Make sure the app has the correct amount of information, for example, an app with 0 bytes would not work, which has happened before when a file is not created properly.

I also have this problem with an app that is called Wavesink Trial (Usb Dab Radio app)
I want this to work for my car player that has Android 2.3.4 but the Wavesink only works for Android 3.0 and above.
I tried to change the Androidmanifest.xml minSdkVersion value to 8 (which is for Froyo) so it should be able to run on my car player.
I even sent a mail to the developer which said it could'nt be possible as Android 2.3.4. doesn't have Usb Host mode, but i guess it has since the carplayer has support for Usb Wifi adapter aswell as memorysticks.
Anyone have a solution.
btw, i decompiled the app, edited the manifest, recompiled the app and signed it again.

If you get a “ Parse Error: There is a
problem parsing the package ”
message when trying to install an
APK, it could be due to different
reasons, but the most 2 common
ones are as below:
The APK file you’re trying to to
install is corrupted. That might
be due to an error when
downloading (such as the
connection getting lost) or the
APK being already broken before
you download it. Try
downloading the file again,
preferably from another location.
If possible, use trusted websites
such as SlideME or Mobango
where the APK are tested
beforehand.
If that doesn’t fix it, it’s probably
because the Android version on
your device is below the
requirements of the app. For
instance, you’re trying to install
an app that requires Android 4.1
and higher on a device running
Android 2.3. To see which
Android version your device is
running, go to Settings, then
About Phone and look at the
number next to Android Version
(or Firmware Version). Unless
you can update the system
(check that by going to Settings ,
About phone , then System
Updates ), you won’t be able to
do much about that. To avoid
situations like this, always check
before downloading that the
requirements of the app are in
line with your device. Good app
stores like SlideMe or Amazon
always provide the minimum
Android version which is needed.

If this occurs on Marshmallow, go to settings>apps. Tap the three dot menu and tap "show system." Scroll down and look for "Package installer." Click permissions and make sure storage is on(the circle is to the right of the oval). If not on, that permission can cause this error. Hope it helps.:good:

Hi,
I recently rooted this device for purpose of changing MAC address and removing the "POCOPHONEF1-" prefix in device name. I managed to change the MAC but I can't seem to find a solution for other problem. I tried editing build.prop, it didn't work.. I also installed root essentials and edited "Device Hostname" (which shows the exact thing that I want to change) it would then automatically reboot, but when I check back in root essentials, the Device Hostname is reverted to the default. Changing "Device Name" in Settings->About Phone still doesn't remove the prefix. Any suggestions?

Yes, I tried both of them. net.devicename doesn't do anything for me. As for the second one, it only changes the name after the hypen (POCOPHONEF1-devicename) . What I want to get rid of is the POCOPHONEF1 before the hypen.
