[APP] Profile Switch for Phone, Wifi, Bluetooth and Data [1.17.0.0 - 17.06.2011] - Windows Mobile Apps and Games

This project is no longer developed!
Profile Switch is a small program that stores up to 99 different settings for Phone, WiFi, Bluotooth, Data-Connections, vibrate, silent, eg. and create shortcuts to switch directly. Up from 1.3 you can switch automatically at certain times and days. The complete profile will be changed only with one click.
Every profile can:
switch phone, bluetooth, WiFi and data connections
auto run on two different times every day or only on selected days
check your appointments if there is a category to disable auto run
switch back to another profile in a given timespan
start up to 3 programs
close up to 5 processes
change the system and ringer volume
change the ringer script
change the backlight settings for batterie and ac power
add a shortcut in startmenu to itself
disable auto starts of profiles if one 'all day event' with selected categories is found, you can select up to 3 categories
start a profile if a appointment with selected categories will start or end, you can select up to 3 categories
Additional you can:
disable data in roaming
switch to a profile if the phone comes back to the home network
run a profile once after a given timespan
disable all autoruns up to a given day and time
start a profile if a pc-connection is detected or lost
start a profile if a headset is connected or disconnected
use seperate scripts to vibrate if new calls, emails or sms are incomming
use separate script to vibrate for reminder (appointments and tasks)
use categories from your contacts to mute (or not) incoming calls

I only tested this application on my HTC HD2, it works in portrait and landscape mode. If you use this on another device, please check the features carefully, especially the block of data when this option is used.
You will find two links in the startmenu folder:
- Profile Switch - the application
- Close Data - a little helper, shut down existing data connection without any visible window. It does not prevent new connections are established (the same funktion like "Close all connections" in the app.
You can edit the language files in the program folder and/or create an new one. For a new translation just copy the 'english.lng' to 'french.lng, spain.lng ...'. But edit/translate only everything after the '=', not on the left side of the '='! Save the file in unicode-format.
Please note:
Requirements: .NET CF 3.5.
For update only install the new version.
Enabled network connections in the settings menu ('Do not switch networks' ) prevent these connections for any switching.
Shortcuts are saved in startmenu\ProfileSwitch\Profile name.
Backups are stored in the progamm folder as 'Backup_YYYY_MM_DD_hh_mm_ss'.
Restore a backup will delete your shortcuts stored in startmenu, these must be set new.
If you stored a profile as shortcut, the profile name cannot be edited until the shortcut is removed.
If you uninstall the application, please delete first the saved shortcuts.
If you want to use automatically switching enable this funktion in settings - Autorun settings ('Activate switch on time').
Set time to '00:00' will disable automatically switching for this day.
Important: If you for example sitting in an airplane, you must disable this feature! Otherwise it can turn off the flight mode and your phone on!!
Using 'Profile switch once' will ignore any settings of 'Activate switch on time'.
If you set the autoswitch time in more as one profile at the same time, only the first profile will switch. The rule is: 1. Run once, 2. The other times up from profile 1 to 99.
Don't worry about a new entry in your autostart folder. CheckProfile is only used to set the next autoswitch after reboot or after turned on the device. It don't stay in memory.
If you use the settings for system and/or ringer volume: My device (HTC HD2) has the option 'Only use one volume'. If you select this, the device will not show this correctly, if different volumes for system an ringer are set in the profile. Hope this also works correctly on other devices.
Special icons for each shortcut are now separatly. Please download them for your operating system. Windows 6.5.X - store the files in the applications subfolder 'Icons', the files for Windows 6.1 must be stored directly in the progam folder.
If you change icons for profile and the shortcut already exists, any links to them and the shortcut itself must be deleted and be rebuilt, otherwiese there are no effects taken. In Windows 6.1 you can't edit/change them!
Special Icons are only shown for the first 10 profiles.
If you get an error while saving a shortcut to your start menu like this: 'Saving the file failed' - please remove all special characters from the profile name, it's used for the file name.
Please do not restore any registry settings manually, always use the backup and restore function. If you restore parts of older entrys - the key names and values can be changed automaticly by an update. In this case you must delete the complete section "ProfileSwitch" or restore an older backup created by ProfileSwitch before you manipulate the registry.
If you select any program or process for closing with a profile, this program must be running currently, otherwise it will not be displayed.
Please use the function "Close program" very carefully. Only select processes you know!
The timespan you set in "time to look back if the device was turned off while starting a profile automaticly" must be smaller then the smallest time between two autorun times.
What the program does not and probably never will do:
Switch the band between GSM and UMTS (auto): There are too many differents between several devices.
Profile switching based on location or GSM tower-ID's: To do this, the application (or a little bit of this) must constantly stay in memory and check the location.
Support for any PIN code protected unlocking the phone.

[+]Now using the new Sense Interface SDK v1.50.
[-]After a soft reset and also using the custom vibrate settings the program to watch incomming calls etc. was not restarted.

To use this new functions, first you must find out the vibrator-adress of your device. Change the adress value and hit 'Test', your device must vibrate.
The script is: 1. value=timespan for vibrate, 2. value=timespan for silence, 3. value=vibrate, 4. value=silence, and so on, times in milliseconds, separator=','. The additional last value is the repeat value (0=without repeat), this value is always required. E.g.: 300,500,300,1000,3
To realise this, a part of Profile Switch must stay in memory to observe a few registry entrys of incomming calls and messages. Similarly it controls the sound settings for all these events. This only is needed if one of these functions is set to 'on', otherwise there is no program in memory.
[-]Error if you select a program to start with a profile and there are dots in the filename.
1.13.0.0
[+]Separately ringtone scripts for every profile.

Ring only (Script "apw3r")
Ring only once (Script "p")
Ring ascending (Script "c50apw3c150r")
Please note that all these scripts only used by windows if the sound profile is set to "full on" (ring and vibrate).
Additional you can create up to two user defined scripts (please see "settings") for any other ringtone by using any combination of this commands for the script ("r" is only usefull at the end of script):
a = activate device

Yes please.

OK
Installation without issues
adjusting the profiles is ok
switching between profiles seems to work probably
Question:
can you maybe add an volume adjustment for phone & sms ?
how can I use the "one click change"? can I make shortcuts to switch directly to "profile 1" or "profile2" etc
Thanks so far

Hmmm. Vibrate or silent eg. are simply. I think volume adjustment is very difficult for me. First i must find a solutions for this, working properly on diffrent devices. (Eg.: Two slider for system and ringer or one slider for both)

Hi,
installed this on an i900 with custom 6.5.3 ROM. Installation and customizing the profiles works good. When i activate a profile with "WiFi on" the following error occurs:

Sounds like your .net is missing something! Do you use .NET CF 3.5?

I tried to install .NETCFv35.wm.armv4i.cab but it says that a newer version is already installed, so i think the latest version is integrated in my ROM.

Do you get the same error when you try: 'Connections' - 'Close all connections'? I think, there are a few little diffrent between the .Net versions.

Ok, maybe found. Can you please test this exe stored in the attached zip-file? Just extract and copy the exe into the program dir (overwrite the existing file).

WOW...now it works perfect for me....
Wishlist:
Volume adjustment (vibrate, silent, ring tone)
One Click Change (Shortcuts to switch to profileX)

I've upload the complete new version. Some translations are missing, if you use only the new exe.

Currently working on it.

Volume adjustment is more important for me. One-Click-Change is unnecessary for me since application can start on "Change-Profil-Page".

Version 1.2.0.0 is online
Change Log:
1.2.0.0
[+] Profiles now with settings for vibrate, silent, both and also for no change
[+] Profiles can be saved as shortcut in startmenu

Looks like very good software.
The minimum is:
volume adjustment - separate for ringer and system
profile based on - appointment, time + bonus - location bases - GSM base stattion number
backlight adjustment -
switch for enabling & disabling wireless - data, wifi, BT, phone
just look at the ageye.de G-profile, that is the most powerful profile switcher at this time, but unfortunately it is paid application. But the best one.

Yes, I know G-Profile. But it often goes online, that is nothing for me. So I've written this small program itself.

Looks good - am going to try this out.
Downloading now .................

How do i set the English language file. I just deleted the "Deutsch.lng" in the install folder. Still struggling if it still has a setting but it's all German.
EDIT:
Nevermind i found it! "Sprache" It's looks good. Thanks!
Keep updating this great app! A MUST HAVE.

Well it is of course your decision, but my thought is, that profile software must have function is time based switching. I want to have 3 or 4 different profiles a day based on time and I can't imagine I am switching manually.
Anyway, the backlight and volume switching are truly basic functions.
And the last suggestion, please set the default language to English. I am from Czech rep. so German is not problem for me, but maybe for the rest of the world it is.

5) Support for Samsung Omnia (240x400 devices).
6) Minor bugs fixed.
Version V2.2(2008-09-12)

8) Phone going off bug fixed.
7) MUCH Bug fixing

features looks pretty cool!
Graphically, I have to say, it isn't so good; why not just keeping the same graph style of the original comm mgr?

This is beta version and the goal is bug-fixing so debug version is needed to find them. Please keep in mind this is the first beta. Only install it if you have time to test it and report bugs. If not is better to wait some weeks for a stable version......

well, it isnt a bug. Its what I wanted to do. Maybe I should change the text. Its a quick way to open classical Comm Mgr....

Any way to change the default place so i can remove the 'unknown' one?

Or maybe do like a 'Setting1' 'Setting2' type scenario that points to the 2 settings in Control Panel. Would be nice to get rid of the old Comm Manager altogether and replace with this one once its final. Maybe just add the old CommMgr as a menu item??

I thought It was a good idea to setup a default place. When the current location isnt known then htis plca. This place is special because allows the set a default behaviour when the current place isnt known.....

Can i make a suggestion for the data counter?
I've noticed that the counter only clocks up for the current data session. Once the session is closed, the counter resets to 0 so you have no way of seeing how much was tranferred last session. Maybe add:
Current session
Last session
Total (with a reset counter)
Just an idea to increase functionality

Ok ignore this post. Wasn't clicking on menu---> save lol.
However, have noticed another bug. If you change the icon and then save, the name of the place is replaced with the icon name.

Release rk-Location Switch (1.0.3) [Updated 15 April 2008]

Here is a 'Phone location based application trigger’. Launches other applications, command lines and MortScripts and anything based on time frame and location you setup. Works on Windows Mobile Professional 5/6 (PDA with Phone) only.
Some of the possible uses have been added at second post below.
This is more advanced version of my application rk-Sleep, where you could just perform one action at one location.
rk-LocSwitch can have any numbers of locations and any numbers of actions. But please do understand that this is not a 'readymade profile application' but by configuring it properly you could make it a profile application and much more. Ultimately you can automatically customize your phone based on where you are and the time span you setup.
Also support fixed actions, actions at pre-defined time, not based on the location (This is helpfull to set up backlight 'Bright' during day hrs and 'dim' during eventing/nights)(This feature is freeware and does not expire)
Now the important thing, this is not a freeware, it is 3.99 USD for XDA-Developers.com members. The trial version runs for 15 days so that you can test it and see if it satisfies you.
Update 1.0.6
Support for undefined/unknown location actions added.
Application now by default starts in minimized mode(not the sys tray mode)
Update 1.0.5
Error while 'Testing' the actions is rectified.
Update 1.0.4
Option to Show/Hide the Tray icon added
Debug support added.
Cosmetic changes done.
Update 1.0.3
Support for hide/show 'Un-Defined' location icon.
Bug fixes
Update 1.0.2
Support command line tags, eg Application could automatically send information such as LocationName, LAC, CellID by using the command line tags <LocationName>, <LAC>, <CellID. By this you could even send sms based on your location Entry/Exit along with location info.
Application can update registry with the current Location name, LAC and CellID.(HKCU\Software\rk-LocSwitch). Now your custom application can access the location information!
New menu added to copy TowerIds from one location to other.
New menu added to copy actions from one location to other.
New menu to force saving of the configuration data.
Bug fixes
Setup:
Install the application.
Run the application rk-LocSwitch from programs for the first time from the programs menu, after which the application starts automatically after soft resets.
A new task bar icon will appear in the task tray, click it to launch the application(application runs hidden, this is the only way you can access the UI to set it up)
First tab in the application is ‘General’, the information mostly read-only; you can specify the polling time (in minutes) and enable/disable the application.
‘Locations’: lot of information here. First you create a new location from the top part of the screen.
Location name is just a name such as ‘My Home’, ‘Office’ etc
Choose a icon ‘which would be displayed on the top notification bar’(you can have custom icons, just add the icons to the ‘\Icons’ folder under \Programs\rk-LocSwitch)
Check the box ‘Notify’(when ever you are at known location, a icon would show up on the title bar)
Specify the time frame such as 08:00 to 18:00(day schedule) or 22:00 to 06:00(for night schedule)
Specify if the location is of 'Undifined Type', If undefined then time frame settings are ignored and LocationIds are removed automatically.
Click OK to save this location
Add the current tower id displayed to the list, you could have multiple towers (if the location has interference from multiple towers or if you have say multiple ‘Places’ put under same location. Such as you want to configure the location ‘Office’ at two different physical locations but you want to have similar actions to perform.)
Now go to the ‘Actions’ button
You have ‘Entry’ and ‘Exit’ actions. You can add multiple actions for each action type. You can even order then ‘up’ or ‘down’. Use the ‘Action’ menu for additional commands such as ‘test the action’.
Next tab is 'Fixed Actions' here you could setup actions independent of 'Location' meaning these actions takes place irrespective of 'Locations' Useful for setting the backlight of the device.
Next tab is log where each attempt based on the polling time is logged. You can change the log action to log all, location change (Actions) only or none. Once you understand the concept put it to ‘None’(but if you think that something is not working then switch the log to all and investigate)
Last tab about: which is basically the registration module and the version info
Important notes:
Notes: if you want to configure home day and home night, you must have two locations setup such as ‘Home Day’ and ‘Home Sleep’ have the time frames carefully set e.g. 08:00 to 22:00(Home Day) and or 22:00 to 06:00(for night schedule). Do not overlap the time frames!
Keep the polling time as large as possible, unless you need real time response.(although I found keeping the polling to minimum (=2 minutes) did not make any noticeable difference to battery usage!. But test it out.
Do not forget to configure the ‘Entry’ and ‘Exit’ actions properly. Enter and exit actions generally should be cancelling each other (i.e. if you switch on flight mode on entry, make sure you have flight mode off on exit)
System is real time( ± Polling Time) , so if you are at home with flight mode activated and if you leave the home at mid night phone would switch back on.
If you really want to exit the program, use the right menu ‘Options’ and choose ‘Save & Exit’
When you start the application(not while activating the rk-LocSwitch) make sure the phone is not in flight mode
More importantly this is a ‘Switcher’ so I do not supply any command line applications to do your custom tasks; they are available in this site and over the internet. You are welcome to link in this thread so that it can be easily accessed by other users. But if some customization what you want is not available then you can make a request, and I will do my best to find one or built it myself.
Check in this thread for more pluggins
Note: This application requires Compact Framework 2.0
You need compact framework 2.0 installed inorder to run this application. The compact framework is already part of WM6, so if your device is WM6 skip this step. But most of the WM5 devices do not have this update. So you must download here and run the installation on your desktop (then active sync to update your device). Only after completing this step install the application.
Thank you all for the support.

rk-LocSwitch Update 1.0.1
Fixes and enhancements
Added support for fixed actions
You can add any number of fixed schedules and add any number of actions on each such schedule(e.g. to set the backlight low during night and bright at day)
These fixed schedules not specific to the locations and will occur at the time specified.
Does work even if the application expired!(it is a freeware, only location service would not work)
Better file browser added, now you do not have to key in the command line.
Bug with the system not clearing some of the old notifications fixed.
Battery use better that before (almost makes no difference on the battery use!)
If you are upgrading from the old version please uninstall the old version and delete any existing notification manually (delete any notification with name ‘rk-LocSwitch’). Then install the new version.
Also added new component rk-BackLight to support setting backlight on command line.

rk-Calendar-Update: Convert all day Calendar events to time spanned events
To convert all day Calendar events to time spanned events automatically so that you don’t get reminders at midnight!
Use this utility if you are entering many appointments during day as 'Full Day Events' and difficult to manage it. Otherwise you can just run this utility once manually.
Read more about it here
Code:
\Program Files\rk-Calendar-Update.exe “08:00” “22:00”
Updates all your 'full day events' to fixed time event with specified time span.

Hmm, No one has any comments?

It can not send sms as it is now, if you find exe, or mortscript which could send an sms then you could use this program.
This program is like a trigger which calls other executables based on location, so as long as you can point to right executable then you are good.
But let me know if you are not able to find a executable to send sms, I might be able to build one for you.

Hi TyTnGuy,
is it possible to get the geographic Coordinatas wich assigend to the Tower ID somewhere in the www?

What kind of battery indicator app do you use?
Is it a standalone battery indicator? or part of other app?
Really nice.

Im looking from a very long time for an app. which can send an sms to a predefined no. But I couldn't find any such. I would be grateful if you can develop such app.
Thanx.

Looks realy good. Will test this on the HTC Trinity.
Keep up the good work!

Tweaks & Tips

I will be compiling a list of tips and tricks as I'm getting used to my S740 that will hopefully help others ramp up more quickly.

Desired Result: I'd like to have my phone lock when the screen goes dark so I don't accidentally call someone from my pocket
Suggestion: assuming you've already tweaked your power settings to turn off display per your preferences, go to Settings, More, More, Key Lock. Select "Lock Device When Idle" and check "Unlock Device When Keypad is Opened"
Result: this ensures I don't call someone accidentally (power timeout for screen is set to 10 seconds, lock device when idle locks device when screen goes off) but still allows me to grab the phone from my pocket, open it, and txt someone without having to enter my pin.

Quickly Toggle Bluetooth On/Off
(an old favourite)
Desired Result: a quick way to toggle bluetooth on and off
Suggestion: install Bluetooth Toggler from this thread; map a SpeedDial button to it by going to the app (might be under Accessories), clicking Menu, Add to Speed Dial
Result: holding down that Speed Dial number = BT toggles

Here are some in which i have used and compiled :
CHomeConfig - Configure your Sliding Pane
clockontop - Display digital clock on top bar and make avalible on all screens (except home)
Dr.Gonzo Clear Fonts - Installs clear fonts (beautiful)
HTC_Touch_Dualt9_problem_patch - Disables XT9
mixtapeking1900-turn-sms-sent-notification-off - Disable "Message Sent" notice from SMS
moBluev2_1_setup - Receive bluetooth files to Storage Card
SMSBubbles - Display new SMS message on home screen.
Additionally, i wanted to check with you guys. I notice that on my default HTC Sliding Panels, the photos plugin is missing ! I have seen it on preview videos, but somehow it's not on my unit. Is it avalible on yours ?

Here are some more
spreset - soft reset
QuadSMS - Automatically resolve phone numbers to contact for SMS and Delivery Report
VGA MusicID - Music ID

I have it in my 740 rom on my shadow. are you also missing the reg entries for the pictures homescreen plugin ?
I doubt they removed it from the cpr. check the home.xml to see if they just removed it from there.
Guys remember chomeconfig will not save your configs after reboot.
so any homescreen order will be reset to default after reboot. at least on my 740 rom it doesnt save because the HTC home.xml is diffrent then normal 6.1 home.xmls

can anyone realize a direct link to "write new sms" on the home page?!?
thank you in advance!
Luca

ShadowMike,
Thanks for your info. I used CHomeConfig to check and looks like the CMyPhotos there, but disabled by default on HTC Home . Wonder why they did that.
Viskas,
If you change the default home screen from HTC Home to Windows Sliding Panel, the SMS/Messages plugin allows you to create new sms from the home screen.
However, i believe you should also consider the faster way to write a new SMS from the home screen, which is to just start typing the contacts NAME from the home screen, and select send SMS using the softkey. I think this is the best and fastest way to do it.

Anyone knows hot to disable the signal blinking/charging blinking/pulsing led around the cursor keys?

data counter
hi, dont know if this is the right thread to post this but i wonder if theres any freeware app that shows if you use the wifi or the 3g/edge connection and how much MB you used.

Program shortcuts on Homescreen?
Is it possible to put a shortcuts for launching of favorite programs directly on HomeScreen ?

picture dialer
Anyone know of a way to add a picture dialer (like in touchflow 2/3D) to the homescreen, possibly via CHome Config? I really can't get used to only having the keyboard quickdials as an option.

Phone contacts vs SIM contacts
I'm really annoyed 'cause I can't find a way to make it show me only the contacts stored on the phone. Any ideas?

Settings/Phone/Call Properties - checkbox Show SIM Contacts...

ugly "beep" sound at call start
Hi,
I am trying to get rid of the "beep" sound that you hear when you press the green receiver to start a telephone call. In S710 one should exchange the file callstart.wav. In Windows Mobile 6, I cannot find this file. Anyone knows what to do ?
Thanks.

For people that want to have control on what is tweaked to allow them to easily revert back. You only have to add the following key to your registry for defaulting to abc mode instead of the annoying XT9 (see CM_ENT~1.001 in HTC_Touch_Dual_t9_problem_patch.CAB):

MIUI for Beginners
Source: http://en.miui.com/a-10.html
Already flashed MIUI ROM? OK, pick up your phone now, let’s start our happy journey of MIUI ROM.
The first step: selecting apps
Various apps will greatly enrich your cell phone, so firstly let’s select the apps to your taste. Use the Android Market and download what you would like. If you are using a backup app and restoring apps from a previous ROM, only restore the apps and not the data. Otherwise that will create a lot of force close issues.
Tip: How to copy files from the computer to the phone? First connect your phone to your computer via data cable, pull down the notification panel from the top of the phone, click “USB connected”, and then click "Turn on USB storage”.
After copying, do not forget to select the option of “Turn off USB storage”, otherwise "File Manager” in the phone will not be able to find the sd card, as it is being occupied by the computer.
Now I have a lot of apps, how to put them in order?
All apps successfully installed are listed on the desktop, however, they may not be in the order you want, how to put them in order?
Long press an app icon and then you may move it freely. When it is moved to the screen border, the screen will automatically switch to the next screen.
How to add a screen? Use two fingers to pinch on the desktop to enter screen thumbnail mode. Then you may add or delete screens.
How to delete an app? Long press the app icon you want to delete, drag it on top of the trash box and click OK to delete it.
The second step: let's make your phone different.
A phone without style is nothing remarkable, so let’s make your phone different!
Changing wallpaper: Click Menu button on the desktop, select “Change Wallpaper” to replace the wallpaper. In addition to the existing wallpaper in the phone, thousands of pieces of wallpaper are also available online.
Changing theme: Themes make great changes to your interface style. Click “Theme Manager” on the desktop to select the theme you like. Also, more online themes are available online.
Selecting ringtones and more: click “Settings” on the desktop to set call and notification ringtones. In “Personalization” under “Personal” tab, you may find more options.
The third step: it’s time for some advanced techniques!
Well, you are no longer a beginner now, so let’s learn some advanced techniques.
Adding widgets on the desktop: press the Menu button on the desktop, select "Edit Mode", and then click the icon on the upper right corner to access the interface of “Add Widgets”. Choose your favorite widget on the top, and then drag it to the screen below.
Using folders to manage desktop apps: in the interface of “Add Widgets”, drag [Folder] to the desktop. You may drag multiple apps into folders to classify them. After opening the folder, you may click the edit icon in the upper left corner to rename the folder.
Using toggles panel to improve efficiency: drag the notification panel down from the top, click "Toggles" to go to the toggles panel (It goes to the toggles panel in default of notice.) On the panel are listed the most commonly used toggles, you may click to quickly enable or disable a toggle. Long press on the icon will launch the settings for that icon.
Guest mode: enable the “Guest Mode” toggle in the panel, and your calls and text messages logs will be hidden, and all installed applications cannot be removed. You may have a try when you need to show your phone to guests or children.
Importing contacts or binding accounts: you may use some apps to import a batch of contacts, or bind Google account directly in "Settings"> "Personal"> "Accounts & Sync Settings" to sync contacts at any time.
How to print screens? Press "Menu" key and "Volume Down" key at the same time to print a screen. The printed image is saved in the directory of MIUI in the SD card.
How to copy files from the computer without using the data cable? In case of a Wi-Fi connection, enter “File Manager” on the desktop, select the tab of "Remote Administration" to start the service, and then you will get an address. Enter the given address on the computer, then you may copy files without using a data cable!

First!
Sorry, just had to. Nicely done sir. Once this is complete I will flash immediately.

Will disabling the proximity sensor keep the screen from turning off when you make a call? Otherwise, sometimes you can't get the screen to turn back on and have to do a three finger reboot. Also, how do we disable the proximity sensor? Thanks man.

Andmer, I have a question. How come your roms don't have the notification panel as the one in the screenshots. Like the two tabs for notification and toggles. Mines just notification and toggles at the bottom

Nicely done sir. I am honored you chose to use my kernel.

Pretty sexy. Thanks.

Thanks for this! You rock! Where can I donate?

1st post has a screenshot of what to unselect in call settings. You are now a manual proximity sensor, press power button to turn on/off screen.

DOWNLOADING! Thank you for this.

Is there an easier way to add Apps to a single folder? It's very time consuming to drag/drop every single app one by one into the folder.

Sorry If this is a noob question. but how do I install this cwm 3 is not working for me

Curious, is there a reason you always make a new post when you update?

I'm having major trouble getting out of airplane mode. Whenever I toggle the switch to turn airplane mode off, it turns itself back on. It was randomly turned on originally just from me rebooting my phone from recovery. Is my only option to completely wipe all data and start all over again?
