ShortenMobile 1.4 [updated at 2010-03-24]
Description:
ShortenMobile watches the clipboard of the device and automatically shortens the urls for you. The application can be set to run at start up and hides in the background. I developed this application cause of the lack of this functionality in HTC Peep.
Currently implemented url shortening services:
bit.ly
tinyurl.com
snipurl.com
is.gd
anonym.to
How to use:
Install the cab file
Open ShortenMobile from StartMenu
Activate the switch "Run at startup"
Click on Hide-Softkey
Copy any url (including "http://" at the beginning) to the clipboard
The shortened url is available in the clipboard after the confirmation dialog has been shown
Requirements:
Microsoft .NET Compact Framework 3.5
Please post any errors, ideas, or your favorite url shortening services.
Changelog said:
Version 1.4:
Completely refreshed user interface, which integrates flawlessly into the HTC Manila dialog style (thanks to Manila Interface SDK)
Allows recognizing hyperlinks with missing "http://" prefix
Fixed crash, when loading plugins (PluginInterface.DefaultPluginAttribute wasn't found in assembly PluginInterface)
Version 1.3:
Added new service: anonym.to
Version 1.2:
Startup is unsuccessful, when the application path contains whitespaces
Version 1.1:
Changed some labels
Added new shortening services: tinyurl.com, snipurl.com, is.gd
Remarks:
Found one minor bug. If you've upgraded from version 1.0, please uncheck and recheck the "Run at startup" checkbox. Otherwise an error message will occur after restart. (That's cause I've changed the installation folder and so the start up routine links to the wrong path.)

Error after soft resetting Samsung Omnia
Hi all,
I installed ShortenMobile 1.1 on my Samsung Mobile last night. Looks like a great program. However, the next time I soft reset the phone (Resco Backup requires it after doing a backup), I received an error right after the phone gets past the Windows splash screen. Here's the error:
"The file 'My' cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted
certificate, or one of its components cannot be found. If the problem
persists, try reinstalling or restoring the file."
Since ShortenMobile is the only new program that's starting at start up I went in and uncheckmarked the "Run at Startup" box, and then soft reset the phone again. Sure enough, the error goes away.
The custom ROM I am using has .NET framework 3.5.9085.00 running on it, and it was installed prior to installing ShortenMobile.
Anybody seen this before with your program? I didn't see any about similar problems. Never had v1.0 installed so this is fresh.

is there a program that will work on a MAC?

Hi Ribert,
to start the application automatically at startup (when the checkbox "Run at startup" is beeing checked), there will be created a shortcut to the executable "ShortenMobile.exe" in the "\Windows\Startup folder" (when the checkbox is unchecked the shortcut is removed). I can't understand why the application tries to open something with "My" in the filename.
Do you have installed the application on sd card, the internal memory (in which path) or moved the application to another folder after installing?
As a workaround you manually could create a shortcut to "ShortenMobile.exe" in the "\Windows\Startup" folder. The parameter for starting the app in hidden mode is "-hidden". (Here's a website, that shows how shortcuts can be built. - http://bansky.net/blog/2007/07/creating-shortcuts-in-windows-mobile-smartphone/).
So your .lnk-file must contains something like this:
#58"\Program Files\ShortenMobile\ShortenMobile.exe" -hidden
I hope I could help you.

I have no idea.
You must be kidding. Here's a Windows Mobile forum and you ask for Mac software.
But I have one idea to possibly solve your problem.
You could install a virtual machine on your mac.
Then install a windows xp, vista or 7 on your virtual machine.
Then download the windows mobile 6 SDK from Microsoft and install the emulator on your virtual windows system.
Then start the emulator and install the cab you can download in this thread.
(Also don't forget to configure the network settings in both, the virtual windows and the emulator.)But in earnest, developing an application for the mac will surely be faster than my proposed steps above.
Regards
Marcell
Hi Marcell,
Thanks for responding. I installed it to My Storage, which is the option that lets you install it to the 8gb storage that's on board the Omnia i910. Perhaps the space in My Storage is causing a problem? I had assumed you didn't require installation to main memory...Correct?
I will enable the automatic startup and then look at the shortcut generated to see what it says and let you know later.

malformed link
OK, so here's what the link file has in it:
67#"\My" Storage\Program Files\ShortenMobile\ShortenMobile.exe -hidden
as you can see, the space is causing a problem. I created a copy of the file and moved the second quote mark to behind the .exe. Then I did a soft reboot. sure enough no problem, and I double checked, and the program is currently running!
So I guess this is a bug report that you're not accepting spaces in the file name structure.

Thanks for your information. Now I know, that I have to build the shortcut on my own way. I expected that the windows mobile api I used would create the shortcut in the right way.
I will see what I can do on this weekend to repair this functionality.

Now I create quotes around the path and then append the -hidden arguments. I tested the application on my device with an application path which contains whitespaces. It works correctly.
Please inform me, if the upgrade to version 1.2 solves your problem.

The international version hasn't been released yet... I bought mine (4G version) through Lenteen from Hong-Kong, and everythings works fine ! I installed google apps, rooted my phone
I know that Huawei was supposed to release it at the end of may in France but any news nowhere on the web... none even from Huawei themself !
So we just have to wait and see...

Thank you for the reply, some questions:
1. So, yours is also a Chinese version?
2. Please post the link for rooting.
3. After rooting, install the GApp, version for 4.2.2? And then we can go for anything, like Nova launcher?

When the phone reboot, after you renamed the file, gapps are automatically installed by the phone.. You don't have to use recovery mode at all !!
And for now, i'm not sure that CWM is available for this model... I think i saw it on a chinese forum but when i translate it's too messy and i have to be registered on this forum to download it so... we have to wait that someone make a post here in english with th e CWM in download...

Okay, I see the point, we just install portions of Google apps we need, starting with play store, the any thing you need.
I do hope we'll have CWM, or at least hardware ways to boot into download and recovery mode.
The KitKat may be far from reality?

We'll get Kikat firmware on this phone for sure, we just have to wait from Huawei to rolling out this version.
It's not portions of google apps as when you do this procedure i explained, ALL the gapps are installed automatically on the phone.
Basically, Huawei made a script in the phone for not allowing these apps to be installed, but when you rename this file, the script is no longer available, then all the gapps are installing after the next reboot !
Mediapad X1 7D-503L
The only deference is the directory:
/ cust / channel / charm_china_l / xml / ( charm_china_l not charm_china_u)
and i use the command as su
mount -o rw,remount -t rootfs /cust
because when It try to rename the UNSTALL_APK.XML I take the error "Read-only file system"
thanks
X1 undetectable by the PC
I have GApps Syncing quite fine without rooting, except the contacts sync which is missing from the sync list. I see your steps are very straight forward, but unfortunately my X1 is not recognized by the PC, although I've installed HiSuite from Huawei website. I've also tried to install Huawei device driver for X1 from this site, but still unrecognized. Accordingly GeniusRoot is unable to detect and root my X1.
I'm Win 8.1 (both 32 and 64 bits), and I've tried to do all these procedures with Compatibility model for Win7, run as administrator, yet the X1 is till not detected by the PC.
Also USB Debugging is enabled in Developer Options.
Any idea what's the reason for this?
More info about my version:
Baseband: 21.529.00.00.000
Kernel: 3.0.8-01317-gcd83a45 [email protected] #1

OK I managed to figure out the solution
Used Root File Manager to rename and voila!! Renamed the file, restart device and got all the Google stuff setup on the phone
Now there is this second problem which is a big pain in the arse
I can't add a second Google account on the phone to get all my contacts..........
Under settings -> accounts -> add account -- there is no option to select "Google" !!!!
Have anyone also face this problem and is there any solution??
Thanks in advance for the help
Guys, you do not need root or tricks to install Google stuff.
Open the Huawei app market. Search for Google. Click on the big Google banner at the top of the page. You get a dedicated page of Google stuff. There you have download links for play store, all the Google apps, and if you can figure out a little Chinese, calendar sync and contact sync software too.

I can confirm this is true. I did a search for "gms" rather than Google - tap on the big link you get at the top of the results page, which takes you to a page of all the Google apps and services, and install everything! (You can always uninstall what you don't need later). No root required, and everything is syncing properly - calendar, contacts, tasks etc. Super easy.

Danny here's how to fix it, and u don't need root
if u have rooted and edited the unstall_apk.xml, best is download and flash the stock ROM first:
http://consumer.huawei.com/cn/support/downloads/detail/index.htm?id=20241 (click 立即下载 on the right)
u can also ignore it but all preinstalled google apps will become system apps, and if u've deleted some huawei bloatware u might not be able to OTA update latest B006 firmware
All the Google stuff can work perfectly even can add multiple Google accounts. Best thing is, u don't need root. Here's how:
1) Go to app centre - all - brand and look for the one with 谷歌 (sorry I've updated app centre and it might be different if u haven't update)
2) Download 联系人同步服务, 日历同步服务, Google Playstore, Gmail and Google plus. The rest can be downloaded from playstore
3) After install, open either playstore or gmail and sign in
At this stage, Google is already setup properly with contacts sync just it cannot add multiple Google accounts. Workaround:
4) Open Google plus. Settings - add account
And voila. The phone is perfect now
There's also an OTA update for the LTE version which updates your phone firmware to 7D-503LV100R001C233B006
Cool new features includes double tap screen on, some control over notification flash light for messages and background battery optimization :good:

Thanks! I was going to try Google Maps but didn't expect it to work. Most apps which require data from the internet do not work, since there is no way for them to get the data (Android Wear does not currently provide a direct connection to the internet over bluetooth). But I was surprised to see that Google Maps does in fact work! Thank you
(I'm also using a Huawei Watch)

Most apps which require data from the internet do not work, since there is no way for them to get the data (Android Wear does not currently provide a direct connection to the internet over bluetooth). But I was surprised to see that Google Maps does in fact work! Thank you
(I'm also using a Huawei Watch)

It works also as a gps.
Open google maps on the smartwatch.
Open google Maps from the iphone (not ios maps) and select your destination.
You'll get instruction on the watch

I have figured it out. You can update by manually installing the newest version of android wear app from playstore to your watch.
First, get an apk file of androidwear(android version).
change the file name into .zip, and extract it.
Inside a folder named "raw" inside "res", you can find an apk file.
install it to your watch with adb commands.
(if it fails to install, use the "adb install -r xxx.apk" command)
after this, you can update the android wear app on your watch
Thanks for the tutorial!
This app also works on moto 360?
Huawei / Iphone 5s.
Installation worked, I do now have the Maps icon/app on the watch.
It does give the location where I'am and features a map around me.
But the update of the gps signal is slow (probably caused by the frequency of the android wear app/google maps refreshes it) and I can't use places nearby (nothing is nearby) and navigation.
Navigation started on the phone is not transferred to the watch.
Any possibilities in a more frequent gps signal/update?

This APK is not wear ready.
I guess the TS stripped a full APK to a wearable one, right?
Can this be done (again) with a more recent full APK?
niravsoni said:
Yes it can be done with this version.

First question: how?
And second, does it help wear users by e.g. faster gps responses?
I think it doesn't work any more... I have installed but iPhone 6 iOS 9.0.2 Google Maps (up to date) is not responsive to the watch. Or watch is not receiving packages from iPhone. Not sure... But it hangs at "Waiting for location". Nothing else.
Which apk did you use?

@william_jc, I have used both. First tried Mahdy's it was just working like a standalone app. No iOS completion.
Then stripped the latest version for wearable. That was same so far.
No navigation, no nearby, nothing. Just a dry map. I didn't figure out or found any solution yet to it.
Edit:
I'd like to answer your question also.
When you download a wearable supported apk (through apkpure.com ie.) extract it to a folder (7zip is doing it quickly). Apk is a sort of ZIP archive. You can either change the file extension to .zip file or directly right click and extract with 7zip etc.
Anyhow, go to /raw/res/ directory after extraction. You will find another *.apk file there. That is for wearable.
You can install it right away to your wearable. Though adb :
adb install XXXXX.APK
That much easy.

Ok, same here. At least after the 1.4 update and using the first google maps.
That means: standalone map, no places nearby no navigation. Fair enough for me if the gps update time was shorter. Now it seems to update ones every 15 minutes or so. Should be every 10 seconds
I do understand the stripping now, although it seems a less smaller apk (the new one).
does this work on all adndroid wear?

Hello everyone, after experiencing a lot on how can i use snapprefs on pc i finally found a easy way to do that. These versions are really old, if you might have problem in logging then just use your email to log in.
Requirements
Nox player (Best emulator so far I've used) https://www.bignox.com
SC version (9.20.4.0) (Download from apk mirror)
Xposed Framework (Download from the attachment)
Snapprefs version (1.6.4) http://dl-xda.xposed.info/modules/com.marz.snapprefs_v23_63dd74.apk
Installation
Install Nox player
Download the Xposed Installer APK.
Install the app along with the framework.(It'll reboot)
After reboot install Snapprefs
Activate the module in the Xposed Installer.
Reboot again
Now got to gallery share any image or video to snapprefs and press back button then capture the image or record a video on snapchat and then you can upload it easily.
I'm new to this and i thought to share it to help others as well if you've any problem or doubt mention in the comments below I'll try to help.
Thanks :angel:

I came across this android app from voguemaster which will download a zip and the extract the zip to update the android kodi files, essentially installing a new 'build'.
Now I understand that a lot of the addons etc from the build it currently downloads are probably not supported and I'm not interested in that anyway. I wanted to change it to update my own build (without unsupported addons) for my friends, so when I make an update they can update as well without me having to pop over their house with my USB stick.
Unfortunately, although I worked out what to change in the app via Android Suite to link to my 'build', i wasn't able to sign and pack the apk because the gradle was out of date - and then I had some warnings about some code being out of date as well. I guess that's to be expected from an apk that's had little or no support since 2015.
My question is, would anyone be interested/able to fork this apk so it will work? I had a go myself but I really don't have a clue what I'm doing beyond the very basics!
