Retro PPC 1.07.02 for WM5 and WM6
~ Official Website ~I've made this little plugin that displays an analog clock, similar to those wall clocks.
It is a PPC port of my previously-released Retro plugin for the smartphone
You can make your own skin with your PC and REdit. Look below and download it. (REdit needs .NET Framework 2.0 installed on your PC).
News:
Development on Retro is stopped, for now. If you are really interested on bringing it ahead, please contact me by PM or email and maybe I'll release the source.
Main Features:
completely skinnable
skins work like photoshop files (with layers)
antialiased-grade graphics quality, better than alternatives (namely spbclock)
can be centered, left, right aligned with a margin
can create stunning effects: canvas shadows, hand shadows, transparent clocks, glass translucency, semi-transparency, etc...
real-time second hand motion (for faster PDAs)
How To Install:
Retro is compatible with WM5 and upwards!
Run the CAB file on your PDA, make sure to choose to install it into internal memory.
Put additional clock files (skins) created by others into the install dir, then you can choose them in the plugin options under Settings - Today - Items tab. The CAB file already comes with 3 basic skins.
I hope you like it.
Where to download:
Retro and REdit can be found on their official site.
Known bugs:
- does not work correctly with non-square clock sizes
- clock will not update while the screen is locked
Version history:
Retro Update 04-03-2008 v1.07.02

yes, but that is the smartphone version...
the plugin is all about drawing the clock over the background.
i made a screenshot in the emulator

No one is interested?
oh my god
Simply, but Awesome,
thanks dude
Good app
It's good. You should know that rlToday does this already and more. I do like yours better though as there is less screen flicker when going back tot he Today screen. You need more examples. Also when clicking on the clock it should open the clock applet liek the standard one does. A smaller clock available would be good, with a second hand. And the date printed somewhere.
Thanks!

For the smaller clock issue, well, you can do one for yourself. Also REdit has an option to resize clocks, so you can resize the Austere clock which has the seconds hand (included with the package) to better fit your screen.
This is excellent
has kept me busy for the last hour making a rough and ready skin from the Omega Seamaster. Found an iage of one on the 'net and started Photoshopping from there...
Images are photographic so blurred slightly when resized, but generally pleased for a first attempt.
Might have another go at some point and make one from scratch.

Hi thenext1
thanks for a very nice plugin
i installed with no problems
after install it did not show, all what i needed is just to go to settings, today & check mark next to plugin ..
i was also able to adjust options from there
the large VGA clock works fast with my qvga phone, but how can i adjust the size? do you have that black one in qvga form?
someone mentioned REdit? is that a software somewhere?
can you please provide some info regarding skinning, size & format adjustment?
THANKS..GREAT work..waiting for the one with digital clock & maybe date (long/short format please eg. Saturday, 17 November 2007 vs 11/17/2007)

clocks aren't resizable from Retro... you should download REdit (see 1st post), open the clock with it, and then use the "resize clock" function in the Tools menu. Be advised taht resized clocks forcedly look worse than the original ones!...
can you please provide some info regarding skinning, size & format adjustment?

skinning...well....skins are layered files (up to 30 layers) with PNG files attached to them, so there's alpha transpparency... try downloading REdit and familiarizing with it ...

A mortscript that changes s2u2 wallpaper based on current weather condition. Now there is support for Weatherpanel, HTC Weather, and the original Yahoo feed (based on notiweather script)
FOR INFO ON ANIMATED WALLPAPERS, see post #4 (but if you don't have this installed already, finish reading this first post first!)
post #4: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=2182530#post2182530
I wanted a way to change the wallpaper of s2u2 wallaper based of the weather forecast.
Since Schettj has created such a fantastic script to user Userweather without a weather app (feed from yahoo), the easiest way for me to start was just build on this, so many thanks to schettj for building a fantastic script.
I have now added scripts for Weather Panel and HTC Weather support that doesn't require data connection. (except for the WP and HTC weather application update itself) Please note that since HTC weather does not autoupdate, there will be times of discrepancy between what htc weather shows and s2u2 wallpaper show. In other words, after you manually update HTC weather, s2u2 wallpaper won't reflect this until the next time the script is scheduled to run (which depends on delayhour variable). This is why I was never crazy about writing a version for HTC weather. For weatherpanel version it is best that you set weatherpanel application to update more often or same as the WeatherWallpaperWP.mscr script.
Create a folder that have 48 wallpapers in jpg from 0.jpg, 1.jpg...47.jpg corresponding to the different weather forecast icons. Or use one of the wallpaper set I have below.
Notiweather link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=358952
S2U2 link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=381588
Sample Customizations
1. Also, to display current , high and lo temp in notiweather change the weather line to this:
weather="C|"&code&"| "&temp&"º H"&hitemp&"º\L"&lotemp&"º"
There should be about 5 or 6 spaces between &code&"| and ", but I don't know why it is not displayed correctly.
(Edit: Current version implements this already)
2. I believe animated gifs would be possible if you change the part in bold again above from ".jpg" to ".gif" and fill the folder full of gifs.
(Edit: On current version, just change the wallpapertype variable at the top to = ".gif" instead of ".jpg", make sure to include quotes)
Update: WeatherWallpaper0.36 now also has version for Manila2D Weather (look for the Weather_WallpaperM2D0.35.mscr script). See the replies below for "u" version.
Update: WeatherWallpaper v0.36 (yahoo only): line 176 fixed with missing ")"
Update: WeatherWallpaper v 0.35 and .35u
A slight modification to the script that will hopefully fix some of the refresh issues. I have ran this for a week and have not encountered coming out of standby without S2U2 lock screen coming up. Please let me know how it goes for you. I also have made a new naming convention. The "u" version refers to the version of the script which will display Last Updated time (like the old v.33). Again, this "u" version will be posted on the third post like before. Thanks goes out to Holmann.
Update: WeatherWallpaper v0.33
I also made a version of WeatherWallpaper for HTC, Yahoo, and Weather Panel that displays the last updated time (version .33). This can be found on the third post on this page. If you don't want the last updated time displayed, then use the version on this first post. Update v.33b: got rid of the extra 0 bug ie 007:30
Update: WeatherWallpaper v 0.32
- don't use v.31, there's a bug. Please use v0.32 for WP only.
Update: WeatherWallpaper v 0.31
- small bugfix. on WP version only, at night slide forecast may display -9999
UPDATE: WeatherWallpaper version 0.3
- contains updated versions for Weatherpanel and Yahoo. HTC version is unchanged.
- updated versions for WP and Yahoo now has a new variable slideforecast:
slideforecast=0 (default) no change to slide2unlock text
slideforecast=1 slide2unlock text will display daily forecast (match lower left icon if s2u2 weather is set to userweather)
slideforecast=2 slide2unlock text will display current condition (match wallpaper)
Please note this feature is for S2U2 v 1.02 or higher (preferably 1.05 or higher). Do not change the slideforecast variable if you are running v 1.01 or less.
Please note if you change slideforecast to 1 or 2 and then decide to change back to 0, the display will not automatically revert back to whatever it is you have ( ie "slide to unlock"). You will have to change it back your self using this utility by l3v5y or through registry edit:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2264560&postcount=923
WeatherWallpaper version 0.2:
- Now contains three scripts, WeatherWallpaperYah0.2.mscr (for standalone use getting weather data from yahoo feed), WeatherWallpaperWP0.2.mscr (for WeatherPanel), and WeatherWallpaperHTC0.2.mscr (for HTC Weather). You only need one of these scripts!
- Two new user settings at the top of the script:
# folder containing your weather wallpaper
wallpaperfolder = "\storage card\my documents\download\wallpaper\weather\"
# wallpaper type jpg or gif
wallpapertype= ".jpg"
- Display is now set at Current temp followed by High and Low temp, but only if you select Userweather in S2U2. For example:
80º H86º\L71º
- Also, it now only writes into registry and "update" s2u2 if the current condition has changed, avoiding too many s2u2 updates, which can cause some delay in s2u2 sometimes.
- Please note that the wallpaper by default is based on current condition (ccode) while the lower left icon is based on forecast (code), so it may not be the same sometimes. i did this on purpose because, with current conditions, the wallpaper will change more often, like 3-4 times a day, giving it a nicer effect. If it was forecast it would chnage like 1-2 times a day.
PocketWeather users: rifraf1 has written a script that supposedly works with PocketWeather. However, I will not be supporting this since I don't have PW installed, but feel free to try. See this link. Thanks rifraf1!!

Wallpaper Update
There are now three sets of wallpaper to choose from. My original vision was to use natural appearing wallpapers that shows the weather forecast. Obviously it has been hard to find for all 47 situations. I have about 10 or so and have filled up the remainder using Bliss Alive for WAD from Doreen at Lakeridgesoftware.com forum. This is now called Wallpaper MyCombo0.3.zip.
It appears that some or most of your would rather us use a more related computerized graphic set, so i have also included the complete set I made from Bliss Alive from Doreen. This is called Wallpaper Bliss Alive.zip. See pics from post #6 below.
Update 5-27-2008: Bliss Alive 0.3 is posted. Cleaned up the graphics for nicer look on PPC.
There is a third set which is a modification of Bliss Alive made by Bob_55 from SBSH forum. This is called samurize.zip. See post #5.
You can mix or match the jpgs.
Still waiting for someone to step up and provide a complete set of animated gifs. I have seen some but not enough to make a set.
Installation
1. download one of the wallpaper set below and extract and place in any folder you like.
2. install mortscript 4.1, and s2u2 at least v 1.01
3. download WeatherWallpaper0.2.zip and extract the three mscr files: WeatherWallpaperYah0.2.mscr (for standalone use getting weather data from yahoo feed), WeatherWallpaperWP0.2.mscr (for WeatherPanel), and WeatherWallpaperHTC0.2.mscr (for HTC Weather). You only need one of these!!
4. edit the .mscr file of your choice with Notepad on PC and change the following data:
wallpaperfolder (where your weather wallpapers are located from #1 above)
wallpapertype (jpg or gif, leave as ".jpg" if using any wallpaper set from here)
For Weathepanel and Yahoo versions only also change:
units (f or c, fahrenheit or celsius)
location (where you are located, see http://developer.yahoo.com/weather/ on finding your location)
delayhours (how often you want it to update)
5. save this mortscript and transfer to ppc in \windows\startup\
6. tap to run it or soft reset. you should see data activity (in yahoo version)
7. see links for notiweather and or s2u2 for further details
Troubleshooting
There appears to be issues arising espceially when using custom Roms or foreign language users. this script was written under the presumption that s2u2 was installed in standard location as well as weatherpanel (if you are using that). If you are having these issues try these two helpful posts:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2273219&postcount=144
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2271849&postcount=139
If you are using the latest Mortscript 4.11b you may have issues as well. Or you unit may be looking to connect to "Internet" instead of "The Internet". Look at this post:

If you cannot get the forecast to show on the slider (and the registry info is correct), see this thread (thanks Holman):

Thanks:

toniolol for help with HTC weather script
here are wallpapers i have so far (taken from pocketpcscreens.com)
2nd to last pic is screenshot including forecast on slide bar (optional)
in last pic, screenshot shows slide bar removed altogether leaving only forecast/summary
see this link for how:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=2314286&postcount=212
I also made a version of WeatherWallpaper for HTC, Manila2D, Yahoo, and Weather Panel that displays the last updated time (version .33). On the WP version only, there is a humidity variable now. However, if you use this humidity or make any changes to how the data is displayed, then you need to change this appropriately (WP only):
oldmax =SubStr(curweather,-23,2)
oldmin =SubStr(curweather,-18,2)
If you don't know what I mean by this, then i recommend you change this:
If ( maxtempf = -9999)
maxtempf = oldmax
maxtemp = oldmax
EndIf
#
If ( mintempf = -9999)
mintempf = oldmin
mintemp = oldmin
EndIf
change oldmin and oldmax both to "--"
Update: v.36u now also has script for Manila2D (Weather_WallpaperM2D0.35u.mscr)
Update v.36u: changes made to Yahoo version only. fixed line 176 with missing ")"
Update v.35u: fixes some refresh issues
Update v.33b: got rid of the extra 0 bug ie 007:30
If you want 12hr format instead of 24hr then see this post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=2521007#post2521007
If you don't want the last updated time displayed, then use the version on the first post above.
Animated Wallpapers
You asked for it, you're gonna get it! ANIMATED WALLPAPERS.
Since Rumball made the great set of animated weather Diamond icons for WeatherPanel, he has given me permission to do a set of animated wallpapers based on his work. These take a long time (I can see now why he asked for donation...he deserves it).
I plan on making a modified set which has shorter animation. The advantage besieds being less time consuming for me is that it is smaller in size and doesn't weigh down the device too much on resources to run. Also, I picked part of the animation which will allow it to run continuosly without the appearance of a break or pause.
I believe Rumball will also try to do a set which will have the full animation like his icon set so look out for that as well.
THE SET IS NOW COMPLETE!!! It was a lot harder than I thought but everyone's inspiration has fueled me on!
These are for QVGA only.
Instructions:
Download WeatherWallpaperAnimated1.0.zip and extra the content onto the folder which contain your weather wallpaper.
On your script, change wallpapertype= ".gif"
(default is ".jpg")
Soft reset.
Download:
http://rapidshare.com/files/137140922/WeatherWallpaperAnimated1.0.zip.html
Lastly, I don't know how to upload animated gifs for preview...probably need imageshack account or something. If anybody can do that, I can post the link here.
[/
i will put more wallpaper here:
samples of the remainder of the wallpapers based on Bob_55 modification which is based on Vista Alive WAD theme from Doreen. This is called samurize. It is not a full size wallpaper!
and hopefully more wallpapers here:
here are wallpapers based on Bliss Alive WAD theme made by Doreen from lakeridgesoftware.com forum.
other possible wallpapers we can use:
Nice work, gif animations would be awesome!
Nice work!!! I knew that this would be a good idea. Way to run with it! This looks awesome.
Please, add support for HTC Home Weather!
Idea is GREAT!
Nice work!
lol if i put it on my wizard it would scream at me for overloading it.
great work tho.
This is a very cool idea
But I'd like to second : Please make it work with HTC-weather and pretty please make it gif-compatibel...

to display current , high and lo temp in notiweather change the weather line to this:

there should be about 5 or 6 spaces between | and " after &code&

To make this work with HTC weather or weatherpanel, etc. I need to know where A_C finds that data..I haven't a clue.
you could look at the creator of "vista alive" WAD. It has a wallpaper for every instance of weather conditions. Im sure she would give permissions to use it for this applicaton

I checked that out. Pretty cool!! But I think the look I am going for with this a more natural real life picture for a wallpaper. I don't want it to be too obvious that the wallpaper reflects the weather forecast, and i think the computerized graphic pcitures give it that impression. Looks nice, but not necessarily the look i am going for. On the other hand, it may be good for filler jpgs for forecast I don't already have.

If you are interested here is a script I wrote, originally inspired by Notiweather, which will display data from Weather Panel on the S2U2 screen & could be modified in the same way to change the S2U2 wallpaper.
It uses the 'current', 'hourly' & 'forecast' files in the Weather Panel data folder to get the information according to the time since the last Weather Panel update, so, what it shows should always match Weather Panel itself & can display the current as well as forecast temperatures.
You can choose what is shown on the S2U2 screen, see the end of the script for examples and change the fourth line from the end of the script weather="C|"&code&"|"&display6 to display1, display2 etc, it'll make sense when you look at the script. Oh! & change location_code at the start of the script to you chosen location.

Hi, nice weather
can u tell me where i get
Requires: http.dll, formlib.dll, FilesEx.dll
also need: .NET3.5 and NETCFv35.Messages.EN.cab
hope can add few features:
WIND <- this one pls
RealFeel <-this one no rush
Presure & ETC
really nice, how about an addition for maps, just the like marsware's weather panel if you've ever used it, there they ask for the URL of the map image and they just keep fetching it.
Doesent work:Error Loading Program
Pocket Weather is the commercial name of SBSH's app....
You'd better find another name for this soft...
Why not :
Pocket Hurricane
Pocket Forecast
TTWWY : Take The Weather With You
TTWWU : Take The Weather With U
T2W2U : Same, but more like modern apps... A_C
Hope this will help...

If we already have Marsware that doesn't need NET CF3.5, why not just keep this one nice and simple.
Once youo start adding features galore it just get too resource hungry (memory!)

Sorry about that - I did not use the correct compiler options when compiling to the Pocket PC platform. I have recompiled and the DLLs were merged into the executable.
I will have to troubleshoot the CF3.5 - I didn't target that framework so it should not asking for that. It may be related to the missing DLLs issue, since both require the B4PPC compiler to use "optimized" options.
I have re-uploaded into post #1 - thanks for testing.

Thanks! I like "Pocket Forecast" and will use that (if it's not in use already). I wrote a wiki application called "Pocket Wiki" so I wanted to stick with the same naming convention.
I don't want to use any application names similar to the great programs A_C writes. I'm not worthy.

I uninstalled Microsoft CF3.5 on my PDA and ran the updated ppcWeather (11/14/08 v.18) - it works for me. That said, applications seem to always work on the developer's systems all the time so that isn't much of a test.
Could you please retest with the updated version?
Thanks to everyone for their help and feedback.

Thanks for catching that.
I just tested that and that seems to be a new bug after I recompiled with the "optimized settings" - I am not sure what is causing this because the desktop version doesn't do this. Same code, different target environments.
The weather.ini settings themeDir, httpTimeout, and refreshInterval are getting blanked, but the location ids are not. This is strange...
I am going to have to check with the Basic4ppc support team to see why this is doing this.
Now i got zip code working need some setting
need Theme [default]
but still no icon
LOL need move \theme\default\condition folder out to \theme\
should work like charm and also the theme.ini i dont is that cause
your new Version works now
Fix (uploaded v.19)

The code is reading a form textbox variable for the settings that were getting blanked out - I'm not sure why some are ok and others are not. As a work-around, I added code to check to see that there is a value for the form textbox before saving it. Uploaded v.19 and am pursuing this on the B4PPC forums.
Thanks for the testing and feedback!

The first line in the "weather.ini" file should be "themeDir=default". If it says "themeDir=" then won't find the weather icons.
Thanks for the testing feedback.

Pocket Quotes great on my Samsung Epix
I've been looking for a stock quote app for my Epix (320x320 screen) for quite a while. Couldn't find a free/inexpensive one that worked on my display.
Thought about trying to program one for myself, but it's been a long time since I've done any "real" programming. Found this app via the forums at basic4ppc and then found the CAB installation here.
I love it! It works great! Thank you for coding and sharing this!
Had a couple of suggestions for possible future enhancements beyond those you had listed above:
Display a progress bar or message when updating stocks.
Allow the user to change the font size for the list of stocks.
Allow the user to optionally turn on/off the display of the detail box and have a longer list of stocks shown.
Allow the user to optionally input a user-friendly name to display in place of the ticker symbol on the main list. e.g. "Ford" instead of just "F".
Allow user to specify the order of the stocks, or keep them in alphabetical order.
Optionally let the user choose to display the list either with alternating colors OR with color coded backgrounds in the list box which indicate postive changes (green), negative changes (red), or no change (gray).
Implement a settings dialog to allow the user to configure any options you implement.
Publicize this app more and provide a way for people to make donations to show their appreciation
As I said, I am very grateful that you built and shared this app. You did a great job making it smart enough to adjust the display to the device on which it is running.
My suggestions are just ways in which you might enhance it to allow your users to customize it more to their liking.
4/25 Update: Found one additional issue. Can't seem to download stock market indices. For example, the Dow Jones Industrial average (symbol "^DJI"). Looks like the "^DJI" is being turned into "%5EDJI" and then not returning any prices.

Thanks for the feedback and suggestions - I had stopped working on this because it didn't look like there was any interest. I'll take some of your ideas and add them to the next release (which will be after I finish taking the PMP certification - preparing for that is taking up a lot of my spare time)
I'll check on the DJ symbols - they should work since it works within Yahoo and I'm using the Yahoo feed for updates.
also eur/usd parameter should b configurable as well...
good appz

I fixed the VGA display (Portrait only) and tested the Dow Jones - it doesn't work because "^DJI" is passed as part of the string and http doesn't like that. I need to urlencode it and see if that works.
I'll work on some of the other suggestions and get a developer's release out soon.
Version D-14
I have placed version D-14 (developer's release) on the main post. Unzip and copy to your PDA.
I have not implemented any of the excellent suggestions yet - I'm working on stabilizing the core functionality before I start adding to it.
Changes included in this release:
1. Added a splash screen on start-up (it's downloading stock updates in the background)
2. Fixed sort when adding stock symbol
3. Fixed VGA display (still only Portrait though)
4. URL encoded "^" for DJI - but it still doesn't work. I need to work with the Yahoo RSS feed to see why not
5. Fixed delete symbol bug (it didn't update all of the arrays, causing the wrong details to be displayed on a symbol)
For anyone with B4PPC, I added the source code to the zip file. Requires the ListView and fgControls library (included)
Feedback and suggestions are welcome.
UPDATE: Version D-14 uploaded to first post. I had left off a zero in the timer control, causing the program to refresh 6 seconds x setting - needed to be every 60 seconds per each minute in the setting.
Release D-15
Release D-13 has been uploaded to the main post
Changes:
1. Add downloading of stock chart when selecting stock symbol
2. Organized program images into gfx directory
3. Minor bug fixes & tweaks
Downloaded and tried D-15. Couple of new issues introduced.
Delete does not seem to be working for me. I can select it from the context menu, but after a brief delay it just repaints the screen without deleting anything. I can add stocks, but can't delete them without editing the pocketquotes.ini file.
Also the detail display is no longer displaying properly on my Epix (320x320 resolution). The bottom of the first row of characters with stock name is cut off, and I can only see the "Close" and "Highest" labels. The close price displays OK, but the Highest price gets truncated on the right (even though there is space on the screen to display it.) Also the bottom line which displays the last trade date is ovelaying other data and the bottom of the last trade text is also cut off.
Finally, in the Add dialog, it looks like there may be a display problem. But I think it was there before too. Below the label which says "Enter Stock", it looks like there is something there, but I can only see a few of the top pixels above the Cancel button.
Just reverted back to D-13 version, and it appears delete does not work for me with this version either. In this version, If I delete a stock, it is removed from the list. But it reappears when I close and reopen the app.
Do you have access to an emulator to see how it runs on a square screen device? If not I could probably figure out how to get a screen cap if it would help.

First, thanks for the feedback.
When you delete a stock, it should go to the download routine (it will display the download image) and then repaint the screen. On my PDA it does not put the symbol that was deleted back there.
Can you send me the stock symbols that you are using? I'll try a test with that.
As for the display on 320x320 - that is a resolution that I've always had mixed results with. I think I am going to remove the stock detail area at the bottom and display it when you click on the symbol (the one that shows the chart) This will make it easier to program as I can use the entire available screen for listing the stocks.
I'll check the add code. I may need to add a refresh or something to force a screen update. There should be a panel with an input box. I did notice it does a refresh download (which it shouldn't do at this point)
Last, I'll install the emulators so I can run some additional testing.

I have uploaded D-16 to the main post.
Changes:
1. Stock detail info moved to chart page; main page only shows list of stock symbols
2. Moved "Add Stock Symbol" from pop-up panel to new page; should display
I am in the process of setting up the emulators, but since function has been moved off onto a separate page, they should display properly on all screen sizes (portrait mode only)
Display Issues on Samsung Epix
Looks like Version D-16 still has some issues on my phone.
It appears that the details display area shrunk between version D-13 and D-15.
D-13
D-15
And the chart display area grew between version D-15 and D-16.
D-15
D-16
In terms of the Add Panel, it looks pretty much the same in all three versions, and is functional. Is there some text cut off which is peeking up from behind the cancel button on my display?

In the attached images, note that the ^DJI chart does display. It's just the quotes for ^DJI and other indices that don't work. Maybe a clue to fixing it? Or maybe not.
I still can't delete any symbols from the UI. I'm going to try deleting the ini file, since it was originally created with an old version, and manually edited on my PC. I figure a fresh start couldn't hurt and so far I don't have many symbols to re-add anyway. Will let you know how that works out.
I like the idea of the combined chart and details screen. If you can figure out how to get the display area for details to be sized right (as it was in D-13), then maybe you could use whatever is left on the screen to display the chart.
Also meant to add, that the display of the actual stocks on D16 works well. Just missing the data for the market indices.
I appreciate the work you are putting into this. I think you are on your way to a great little utility here.
Tried with a brand new .ini file. Similiar issues. It appears that you created a default .ini with the auto companies. I deleted all except HMC without issue. Then I added all the symbols I had before. And tried to delete several. None could be deleted. Except the HMC one. Then I couldn't delete others. The only thing I could see was that HMC was first entry on the list in the .ini file. And the remainder of the entries were NOT in alphabetical order. Are they supposed to be in alpha order in the .ini file? Could it be that the indices are somehow messing things up?

That sounds like it could be the problem why it's not deleting; the "^" symbol is messing things up.
The screen display is cutting off some information on the 320x320 display (works ok on VGA and QVGA) - I have some code that I need to apply to setting the form for 320x320. It's really a simple calculation where if the display is 320 I use an offset factor of 1.25, and if its VGA I use an offset factor of 2. I just need to apply this for your display.
Thanks for the images - it helps me to see what is happening. I'm having trouble getting the networking to work within the emulator so it's not downloading stock data (I may have to build an off-line mode to work around this)
I'll get an update back to you later today.
Version .19
Developer's Release .19
1. Added "splash" screen when updating stocks
2. Added configuration to change list row colors
3. Moved stock info to graph screen - main shows only list of stocks
4. Fixed sort when adding new stock
5. Fixed SIP when adding stock
Still working on some of the other suggestions.
I will cab this on the next release. I'm going to add in a update from web feature (I just implemented the same on pocket quotes) so that users can be sure that they always have the latest version.

Thank you for making a stock quote program. I have been looking for a long time and there are relatively few programs that work well. I like many of the things you have done but there are some things I like from other community members. Please take a quick look at the post below.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=476613
I like the way each stock line shows red or green depending on stock up/down or profit/loss. Also, its nice to have the added screen space that the scroll bar takes up. Perhaps the scroll bar is not needed?

Changelog Bluetooth4.0 --- 2015-31-10 | 04:06PM
- Added Hungarian language interface (all resolutions)
- Increased dial display character size
- Fixed call history button sizes
- Fixed call history list elements, re-arranged and resized name and number, call date and time in the rows
- Increased search keyboard letter buttons size
- Fixed phonebook contacts list elements, re-arranged and resized name and number display
- Fixed setup window text fields to be wider, so that various languages other than English also fit

Changelog Bluetooth4.1 --- 2015-02-11 | 23:07PM
- Included sabruri1's fix to caller ID display during call
- Re-arranged Call icon in the contacts list, so that it shows at the same position as in the call history list (topmost). It was very confusing during driving, that the same function is not located in the same places in these two views.
Enjoy
Sweet! Great work. Finally no file extension. Do you have a version of this that only has the filename and list mod without changing the colors or background?

Look for MTCMusic_yellow_tag. It's the original version (filename and list mod with original colors)

Hello
Is it possible to change the music app so that it jumps to the next folder automatically?
Cool I'll check it out. It has the original background as well? The screen shots showed a different background in the other thread I thought. Thanks.

You have to take the modded app and replace the original (system/app) with same file name.
I uploaded it on first post! See...

Unfortunately I can not make changes for each user. But modify the resources (colors, img etc) of the app is very simple!
Does the APK overwrite the already installed version or do I have to uninstall/reinstall? Also, the big question is can you get the widget to show the album?
So I just tried the newest version with album art original colors. A few bugs.
First, I get a forced close the first time i open the app or the first time I insert a usb flash drive with media on it. After I press ok it starts up with what ever file was played last, not what was on the flash drive.
Second is the filename of the MTCMusic app used to be just "Music" in the app drawer and now its "MTC Music" and it doesn't flow with the rest of the stock apps such as "Video", "Navigation" , etc.
Third, even tho this is the original blue/yellow version the track time is still in red?
Last, its not pulling embedded album art or jpg's placed in the folders from m4a and mp3 albums even tho the widget is showing it fine. Also the track title is still using the filename instead of the id3 tag for certain albums not sure what the factor is. Im going to try the version without the album cover and see if it fixes the first couple bugs.

Hi, I am new to these issues . I have decompiled file with apk manager 5.0 and tried adding a layer of transparency in your file bg.png background with Gimp, but I have not succeeded yet. Besides changing the background image must change something more ?
Thank you :good: :good: :good:
So I tried the first version that doesn't include the album art and almost all of the issues above are not present. No force closes. The app filename is "Music" like before. The track time is the right color. Of course I cant comment on the album art bugs for this version.
But it would be nice if the files track title cant be pulled from the id3 tag or if its not an mp3 such as m4a, the extension is still removed just as it is in the track list on the right. That way there are no file extension at all in the app.
Also it would be great if the track title label width was wider to about the first button that toggles the track info/music vis. That way small track titles don't have to scroll. This version isn't as bad as the album art version. The track titled "Born to Die" was constantly scrolling and there was plenty of room on the screen to expand the track title label.
Hope this helps you track down some of the issues better. I'm sticking with this version as my daily driver for now. Great work.
