TreeTools is evolving!

2009-07-13T10:23:00.000-07:00

TreeTools is evolving. I am currently in the proccess of completing a website to host a TreeTools download. New features include the ability to note londitude and latitude of the tree and im working on saving a waypoint so this can be used to locate the tree. Clearing and saving output for refference at a later time. The app has been predominantly made for s60 but a uiq3 version will be made available.

The app itself stil requires some small trweaks, and screen shots, links and downloads will be posted on here and at the website when it's released. stay tuned. i would also like to take this oppertunity to remind anyone that is using previous versions of tree tools that there is likley an error with the mathmatical equation casiong the RPA to be in correct. this has been fixed in the new version. allong with many other improvments. thanks for looking and stay tuned to find out a release date.

TreeTools For UIQ3, Arboricultural Tool box.

2009-03-22T12:33:00.000-07:00

This is a revision of DBHcalc with additional features, which are:

- Calculate DBH (Diameter at Breast Height)
- Calculate Height (This is a form used in conjunction with a tool known as a clinometer which is a tool for accurately measuring the height of a tree, eliminating the need to manually calculate)
- Calculate Precautionary area (used in relation to construction in proximity to trees, relating also to NJUG 10)
- Calculate RPA Single Stem (Calculate the Root Protection Area of a single stem tree. according to BS:5837 Trees in relation to construction)
- Calculate RPA MultiStem below 1.5mtrs (Calculate the Root Protection Area of a multi stem tree. breaking below 1.5mtrs from ground level, according to BS:5837 Trees in relation to construction)
- About section

Hope that this some how is of use to others maybe if you are intending to make a drive way or dig, buid a wall or do any kind of work close to trees.

Root protection areas are intended to allow maximum protection of trees whil work is carried out in proximity to trees. for more on this google BS:5837

The download has been suspended!

I have discovered errors in the calculations, a newer version is under development, and will be available here soon. Please NOTE if you are using the version downloaded here or at PF please discontinue use. thanks and check back soon for the working version.

UIQ3 HandyWi (war driving! (well kinda))

2009-01-15T07:47:00.000-08:00

Check out (on your mobile browser). http://get.handywi.com

This is an app that can be set up to periodically scan, connect AND open the web browser all without u doing a thing!!!! excellent!!!

An alert sound of your choice can be set, to let you know when a free wifi spot is detected. This is really handy for those of you in busy towns, what is great, as well is that you can set it to auto-scan and then just forget your were ever scanning for free wifi. Previously one would have had to keep pressing scan then looking, this is completely automated wifi stealing excellence enjoi!

UIQ3 autostart on any app

2009-01-11T04:21:00.000-08:00

This is an app that allows you to open a SIS file and change it so that it will auto start on your phone, for those people that dont have Bootman. i have not investgated this but i thought that maybe having your favorite apps modded to auto start may use less ram on start than using bootman.

1. Need SIS Contents app - link: Download it!
2. Open SIS file with SIS Contents
3. Tools - Edit Package and click Contents button
4. Add application exe 4 capabilities: ReadDeviceData, WriteDeviceData, ReadUserData, WriteUserData [THIS IS MINIMUM CAPABILITIES]
5. Open notepad, and write app name eg.: AutoCam.exe and save as to AutoCam.ast
6. SIS Contents Click Content button and click Add Entry - Add file Entry
7. Choose AutoCam.ast - Target: c:\private\10274b9f\import\AutoCam.ast
8. OK and Save as SIS File...

Opera mobile and the web page mod

2008-10-26T02:53:00.001-07:00

So after i installed opera, by default it sets a system wide home page. the built in web browser cant handle it. which i wasnt to bothered about, until the app began to annoy me, there are several glitches which are not major but rather annoying. so! i have decide to wait until the finished product is released. but i found when i removed it and re applied the web page mod it failed? so i set about sorting it. i managed to get it to work by the following steps:

1. Get the .cre file from my previous post.

2. Using x-plore put the file in private/10202be9/persists (overwrite if needed).

3 Start the web browser, the old web page should be visable.

4. Close the web browser and go back to x-plore, return to the file you inserted and edit it. find the location of the start page as before (see previous post) and only change z - c then save making not of the address u just modified, as it does not exist yet you will need to make it.

5. Once the folders have been created drop your custom .html file into the folder. fin

A few favourite app's of the moment :

2008-10-21T10:23:00.001-07:00

Here are a few app's I'm using they are really very good and I have only come across these recently see below for link and description.

Padersync

This is an FTP client which is pretty good I'm using it to access important documents stored on my PC while I'm at uni as well as accessing entire web sites that I have saved (as I wouldn't want to carry them all the time in my phone). you will also need an FTP server server and the skills to set it up.

Opera 9.5 Beta release

Impressive new .sis browser (opera mini is good but it would always be limited by java) there are some known issues one being that it will override the homepage mod featured here previously, this is however rendered irrelevant as it allows you to set a custom home page including a page stored on memory for example c:/shared/startpage/index.htm I'm liking it, especially the new widget function. They operate almost as small app's check it out it's worth it. Sorry no screen shot just check it out now.

VRCC video web cam app

This app allows one to stream a feed from their phone to a web page or just use it as a web cam. it's far better than mobiola, but a little more specific in it's operating requirements.

If you have any requests for app's or app's you would like to see featured here don't hesitate to contact me: uiqthreeblog@gmail.com

========================================
Document version: 1.00(0), 17th March 2008

Application version: 1.00(0)

Phone(s) concerned: All compatible
Release note: Please note that this is a non-commercial application created by students at the University of Applied Sciences Hagenberg. It was tested very carefully but due to its nature as a (low budget) student research project it might not be 100% bug free. If you find bugs please report them to alexander.erifiu@fh-hagenberg.at or mario.grammer@fh-hagenberg.at. The authors are not liable for any damages or whatsoever caused by the use of this software.

USER GUIDE
======================

This application connects a Nintendo Wii remote to a S60 mobile phone via bluetooth. Once connected it emulates the keypresses on the mobile phone.

1) After installation (internal memory favoured), turn on bluetooth and run application.

2) When the main screen appears, use the Options menu and select 'Discover WiiMote'.

3) Instantly press the 1 and 2 button on the Wii remote at once (or the connect button inside the battery case) till the lights start to flash and keep flashing.

4) Once connected send mobiPad to background ('hide' on phone or home button on wiimote). MobiPad starts to emulate the keypresses automatically.

KEY MAPPING
======================
(only for UIQ version)

The mapping is designed for holding the remote crossways in two hands ('GameBoy style') with the cross facing to the left.

A button - enter
B button - space
+ (PLUS) - keypad 3
- (MINUS) - keypad 1
home - sends app to background / brings it to front
1 - keypad 5
2 - keypad 9
directions - up down left right

Note: The mapping was designed for P1/W950 devices. However most games and emulators will let you configure your keys.

UIQ3 Monster bass v2

2008-10-14T08:40:00.001-07:00

Hey so basically I have tried this mod several times with no obvious change in volume or bass. This upsets me because I see lots of posts on forums from people that own a p1 and claim to be enjoying the new found volume and bass. recently I have applied the mod again to my p1 but I'm still unsure if it is using the files from the AAT folder as opposed to the files in ram. basically when I patch the file, the extension changes to M3SAudioPolicyMgr.dll.bak when I use this file the phone seems to crash so I thought I would try deleting the extra extension!! this seemed to work but I'm still not sure?!

Basically I'm after any p1 owners to come forward and share their sound mod skillz. Together we can put together a super easy to follow tutorial on this blog, all ideas and exp welcome.

Please either comment here or contact me: uiqthreeblog@gmail.com

Make sure you never master reset!!!

2008-10-14T08:16:00.000-07:00

Im not sure if it is an isolated incident but im not willing to risk it!

when i modded my p990 the calender app stoped working while i was at work. (im a tree surgeon and i wanted to organise!). Anyway i thought i would try a master reset on my lunch break the phone needed a fresh start anyway. this appeared to brick the phone. blank screen with just back light. not good!

After getting home and trying a few things i found there was nothing i could do to save it. i think some how i screwed the gdfs files up! (for those not knowing what these are, thats bad). so when ever i get an error now i just use SEUS this is the safest option for me, as now i own a p1 and i really dont wanna brick it lol.

just thought i would share the knowlege, if anyone else has had a sililar exp please comment i would loe to be proven wrong here.

Customising the UIQ3 web browser homepage

2008-10-13T08:29:00.000-07:00

Now i thought this sounded relitivley easy but it turned out to be a bit of a fiddle. the steps explaind below are how i got it working on my p1:
-First i downloaded the mod from HERE (you need to be a member of ipmart to see it, it's worth it!) -Then i set to work carfully following the steps (Thanks to sh.a.rk for this)

1. Create dir c:/Shared/sp/
2. Paste Index.htm to this folder

The original description was not very coherent so i fiddled and this is what is did:
-Copied the file 10205afa.cre (from the download .zip) to c:\Private\10202be9\persists\ (this deletes all original bookmarks)

-Open the browser (this forces the browser to make a new home page in ram @ z:/private/100051e6/startpage/index.htm)

-Close the browser (completly) -using X-plore edit the file c:\Private\10202be9\persists\10205afa.cre and within this file do a search for z:/private/100051e6/startpage/index.htm change this to file://localhost/c:/Shared/sp/index.htm

If you copy the html from your favorite web site and save it as index.htm in this folder it now becomes your home page. cool huh! Now this essentially tells the browser to look into the c drive for the file instead of ram, i had some teething problems and found that instead of the folder in c:\ being sp i called it strat page and it worked like a dream. screen shots of my configuration below\\//

The two most important mods!

2008-10-13T04:53:00.000-07:00

ok so you need to access system folders and you want to install unsign material it's quite simple. (your thinking it's not).

Imoprtant notes:
- there are several ways, i will describe the easy one lol.

In order to access system folders download capswitch from: HERE and the Install sever from HERE now hopfully you should be able to install capswitch without signing it. this worked for me, so please contact me if your having any probs.

The deal is that Capswitch used to need to be signed before you install it, so in order to apply the invalid certificate mod the python script mod needed to be applied. the python permissions mod tutorial can be found HERE

The first post

2008-10-13T03:21:00.001-07:00

hi there!
I thought i would start a blog about the uiq3 platform. This has been my mobile platform of choice for 4 years no, and i want to share some of my modding knowlege. Primarrily this will be a show off, site as i have modded my P1 to my needs. i have found that the UK modding scene is alive but there seems that allot of the fresh hacks come from eastern europe. which is cool but somtimes the explanations of how to apply these mods is a little, well dis jointed.

so im here to help! (lol if i can)

So if u have any questions regarding the uiq3 platform mods and hacks applying files, or just simple customisation contact : uiqthreeblog@googlemail.com and ill get back to you.
