This is a single screen theme with several hot spots and features:
Hotspots -
Anywhere over the current conditions opens the designated Weather app.
Anywhere over the next even opens Calendar.
Below the weather conditions (right where Rocketplayer, etc... shows) opens Themer Music Source.
To the immediate right of that opens the selected player directly.
These are important to remember as when music isn't playing, these areas will be blank with the exception of the play icon.
Categories are obvious.
Anywhere on the watch dial (other than the small dials) opens the notification drawer.
The top dial is currently set to open Wifi Analyzer App.
The left dial is currently set to open Better Battery Stats App.
The bottom dial is set to open Alarm.
What the Dials tell you:
Main dial tells the time - obviously.
The bottom dial tells when the next alarm is set for. If no alarm is set, will show midnight as in the picture.
The left dial tells battery level. If plugged in, the hands turn to red.
The Top dial tells reception levels. The hour hand shows Wifi signal strength, the minute hand shows Cell signal strength.
If airplane mode or no signal, the hands will be to the right of Noon so as not to be confused with full signal strength.

I'm using the icbar program on my xda and love it. I'm trying to customize it so it shows the phone icon that is displayed on the normal start bar (the one with the signal strength, etc.). I'm able to get it on their with a default icon (blue square). It functions like this, if you click on it (shows connection options, turn off phone), but doesn't display signal strength, etc. What can I change the icon to so it works correctly?

Well, I e-mailed the author of icbar, and he said that currently it can't do this . So, I was wondering if their is another program (that can be ran from icbar) that would show the signal strength, alerts, etc? Or is their a program similar in function to wisbar/icbar that doesn't cover up the system (?) notifications? I like to know when I have a voicemail :lol:
Hi folks,
I have developed some applications for Pocket PC already, but now I have an idea, where my knowledge is not enough.
It is yet another today plugin for displaying weather data.
I have searched lots of differentprograms and plugins to display weather data and forecasts on the today screen, but none of them fits my needs.
I think of an application which can do the following:
A Today plugin that show a city, the actual temperature and a forecast of the next days in one line.
When tapping an icon left of the city you get a fullscreen applicationwith more options
When tapping the city, you get detailed information about the city (GPS-position, height, links to google-maps, links to wikipedia and so on)
When tapping the temperature you get a screen with actual weather data, temperature, wind, pressure, clouds, rain, snow. Also a history of the last 24 hours for the temperature (a small graph) to see when it was coldest and hottest the last 24 hours. I need this to see if I have to get up a bit earlier because the streets and my car may be frozen. The actual temperature right now is not enough for me.
If you tap on a forecast icon you get a detailed forecast for the selected day.
The options screen lets you select another city for the today plugin, manage your list of cities and connects withyour GPS. This way you can add the place where you actually are as a city for the today-plugin.
Furthermore you can display how far away from your location the next weather station is. I think this could be useful to know how accurate the data is. It is a difference if the next weather station is 100m away or 10 km.
You can also open another screen, where you can see your actual GPS position, heading, speed, travelled miles, average and maximum speed and the actual weather at your location. This way when driving my car, I know the temperature outside. Or when walkingin the mountains I have the forecast for the next hours.
Of course there are some settings screens and so on. Maybe I can even display actual satelite pictures.
I have found almost every of these functionalities in the programs I have tested, but not all funtions in one application. And some functions did not work in some of these applications.
However my knowledge of programming is not good enough to do this application alone.
Maybe there are some developers out there who like the idea and we can do a project together?
I have lots of more ideas what to do with such an application.
Anybody want to help?
greetings

In the camera settings of my P500, I do not see any GPS option. How do I geotag photos at the time I click them?
Do I need to download some other camera application?
Hi there, Geotagging isn't very accurate for me but none the less:
Enter the camera, press the button on the very left, press the little bolt like button on the screen (you may have to tap the screen for it to appear). Then scroll down the column on the left until you find the label saying tag location. Click it and turn it on.
That's it
Thanks for the update. I think we need to switch on camera, and then wait for GPS fix for some time, and then click picture
but it seems that the gps it's not turning on, any idea?
For all of you guys wondering how geotagging works: you must enable this function in the camera settings, just as eichos said. On my phone, this is done by:
- tapping the screen to make the left side menu appear;
- tapping the down-left soft button that looks like a gear wheel;
- scrolling down to the last option in the menu, called "Tag location", tapping it and then setting it to "on". This will further take you to the GPS settings screen if the GPS is not currently enabled on your phone. You must enable it for geotagging to work, even if you're inside a building and the GPS will not get a precise fix on your position.
Now, even if the GPS icon from the status bar disappears after a few seconds, the GPS works in the background. As you may already know, the phone determines your current position using two methods:
- rough positioning provided by the mobile network cell towers your phone is connected to or the wireless networks nearby (Settings - Location & security - Use wireless networks);
- fine positioning provided by the GPS, if it can see and communicate with the satellites which requires clear sight of the sky line (Settings - Location & security - Use GPS satellites).
Now, having the GPS and the geotagging feature enabled, the picture's EXIF will include a tag about your location, which will be accurate if you're outside and rough if you're inside or if the GPS doesn't a fix on you yet. I just took a picture inside my office and the EXIF tag says the name of the street my office building is on, so even without the satellites the positioning is quite precise.
Wondering how you can check the EXIF tag? You can do it on your computer, of course, transferring the picture and opening it with a variety of programs (I'm a big IrfanView fan), or you can do it on the phone, using the gallery. Browse to the picture, open it, tap on "Menu - More - Details" and look for the "Location" tag.
I have moved on to the Vivid as my daily carry, but still have uses for my Aria. I would like to use it as a full time GPS and media device for the car. Is there a way to remove the SIM card and signal strength status bar icons?
You can't know your limits until you exceed them.

I'm not sure why you want to, but you may be able to cook your own (using the UOT Kitchen).
Another option is to hide it from the main screen:
Step 1: Load ADW
Step 2: Open ADW settings
Step 3: Open UI Settings
Step 4: Open Screen Preferences
Step 5: Scroll down to "Advanced settings" and select the option "Hide Status Bar."
This provides the most screen real estate, at least on the home screen.
The other option is to use a custom status bar (from UOT) that is all black or white (or the color of your GPS application). This won't remove it from the screen, but it will at least make it not seen.
One other option is to set the phone into airplane mode. This will remove both the SIM card and signal strength icons, BUT will add an airplane mode icon. This still reduces the number of unwanted icons from 2 to 1 though. ;P
I have found that Sweeter Home has a full screen option. I can then build a fake notification bar (more like a banner) with clock, battery info to provide pertinent info. Come back later for screenshot...

Not going to do what I want. Google map and navigator do not run in full screen, so the status bar shows.

Sounds like you may need to live with the status bar...
Status bar is ok...just don't want those loud blaring irrelevant icons warning me of things I no longer intend to use.

I have the Ring Doorbell Pro and am generally happy with its performance. I also just mounted an older Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 10.1 on the wall, as a hub for my various home automation lights, switches, etc..
I am trying to get the Ring Doorbell app to open when there is a ring, or motion is detected, to show the image from the Ring's camera for 40 seconds, then to close and return to the tablet's Home page.
I purchased Tasker, but unfortunately, my recipe is not working well at all. Here is what I have as a Tasker profile:
The trigger is a Ring app Notification either a ring or motion detected).
1. Open Ring app
2. Wait 41 seconds
3. Go Home
This works sometimes, but most of the time it either does not open the app, or it does not close the Ring camera-view window, or it does not go to the Home page, but stays on the Ring app's list view of events.
Has anyone done what I am trying to do and how did they do it? Any other suggestions?
I also have a Smartthings hub, if this would help.
Thanks!
