Sorry boebi. I don't quite get you what mean. The file is with the first post message of this thread. I suppose you could download the zip file to the ppc, unzip it (of course you need the have the tool to unzip on ppc), and install the cab file.

Thanks for the update. Your time and labour is well appreciated. Great Job.

Zip file is damaged or corrupted. Can you re-upload?

Adding the date with time is nice too ... thanks

I have not heard too much with the ICBar on the X50v. You too. Thought it was just my bad.

Dogfood, thanks for the “treat”! Gonna give it a try.

Dogfood, I have to hand it to you as one heck of a little tweak. I can't tell you how many times I've lost and re-found this thing.

Is there some way to get this posted as a Sticky?

I reloaded the zip file in the first post of this thread. Verified myself by downloaded it and installed it. It should work.

Not sure how to make it sticky, though. :rolling:

Hi,

Do you know what registry to change so I can disable the charging on AC? I want to do that because I only want to use car charger for powering the PDA not charging.

I'm not sure if I fully understand what you mean. How can you not charging it? The PDA is being charged when on external power, doesn't matter if it is from AC or car charger, or some other ways. Isn't it? Unless you don't have the battery inserted. I don't know if you can do that.

Updated with new features. Take a look at the new screen shot on the first message of this thread. As for the status monitor service, you don't need to soft-reset anymore to activate it or to change what to be monitored.

The status monitor service "might" work on WM5. I don't have a WM5 device to test it on. If it works, it will disappear after soft-reset, so you need to run the RegTweak application again to bring it back.

Enjoy. :)

great! thanks!

It's great that you guys tried it out.

I tested it on my friend's WM5 PPCPE. First of all, the status monitor works, if you don't do soft-reset after enabling it in "RegTweak". But something interesting:
1. The CPU Usage line is NOT the bottom line on the screen. One extra line is below it. I understand that from my code. But that means my x50v in VGA mode does NOT have 480x640 visible resolution, but rather 479x639.
2. CPU Usage on the WM5 always shows 100%. I traced it down to GetIdleTime function always returns 0. Don't know why and I can't find anything by goggling it.

Can anyone verify these, please?

Thanks.

Couple of changes:

1. On WM5, the registry settings changed aren't getting saved if you choose soft-reset in RegTweak. The reason is that the cached changes aren't flushed to resistance storage. This is now fixed.

2. The status monitor thread is now running at "idle" priority.

What conflict(s)? I have both, but I don't see any conflicts.
