Guest nedge2k Posted July 13, 2004 Report Share Posted July 13, 2004 I guess that the GUIDs in the cpl.xml file (below) are dll ID's, but does anyone know the format of the dll's in question - i.e. which functions need to be exposed etc such that we can create our own dll's. Well i've experimented with the function and changed the CLSID's to third party plugins like the LCD plugin (when you select it you can set an hourly bip, alarms etc) and tried to have that selectable from a pop-up menu but it didnt work. In fact it doesnt seem to work for any homescreen plugins. I havent tried with other phone plugins apart from those in settings and it also seems as tho you cant call other xml's from a menu either, only .dll's with a CLSID so yeh they must be in a different format.

Guest midnight Posted July 13, 2004 Report Share Posted July 13, 2004 well, it wont work for homescreen plugins, cos they aint settings screens :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest nedge2k Posted July 14, 2004 Report Share Posted July 14, 2004 Yeh i know that mid, but why? At the end of the day you're using an xml to call functions from a dll. Why wont it except anything? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest midnight Posted July 14, 2004 Report Share Posted July 14, 2004 the dll has to be written in a way that its a full settings screen, just linking it to a plugin wont do anything Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest katan Posted July 14, 2004 Report Share Posted July 14, 2004 also looking for the "File Copier"... :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest cch Posted July 15, 2004 Report Share Posted July 15, 2004 In response to midnight (regarding the settings dll) I agree with what you say, but then again, that was my original question. To clarify my original request:- I meant to ask, "What is the format of the DLL ?" If someone can let me know or point to examples etc of a typical settings DLL, then I can create my own version of such a DLL to do what I want, which can be launched from the Control Panel using the XML approach. Unfortunately, I have found no answers yet - but if I do, I shall pass the information on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest midnight Posted July 15, 2004 Report Share Posted July 15, 2004 nice one, may be a question to ask the MS guys, dunno if they'll help, but worth a try Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest sinner Posted July 23, 2004 Report Share Posted July 23, 2004 hey copied the settings and think that the order is definately an improvement. Some programmers just have no sense of ergonomics. One little problem though, everytime i change the alarm time it takes forever to change and sometimes even crashes my phone. Anyone else experience this problem?

Guest midnight Posted July 23, 2004 Report Share Posted July 23, 2004 hmm, thats weird, even if you change it in the clock settings page? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest sinner Posted July 24, 2004 Report Share Posted July 24, 2004 yeh i tried changing it in the clock and the options menu. It takes a good minute to make the changes. Although if i use the old settings then everything is back to normal. My ROM version is 1.50.8.6. Dont know if that will mean anything. I take it no one else experiences this?

Guest beersoft Posted November 29, 2004 Report Share Posted November 29, 2004 ok its quick and very dirty but this sets the settings menu to mid's example in the top of the thread i've only done the 2k3 settings because i can't find my e100 to test with, but it will work but give you a bluetooth menu you can't use Instructionscopy the exe to storagewindowsstartup and you should be rocking and rolling later Owencustom settings.exe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest The_Flames Posted December 1, 2004 Report Share Posted December 1, 2004 beersoft could you make an app like the one here but allow custom files to be copied from a folder on storage, not just the example files which your app does now? BTW your app works on my E200 like a treat :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest danasher Posted September 14, 2005 Report Share Posted September 14, 2005 :exclaim: :evil: I have an issue with the rom 2.7.2.2 of Orange because i could not open the root.cpl.xml and change the settings thanks to help me Been working on this for a few days, and was gonna wait until our file copier was finished, but think i may aswell release the info :o Its possible to change the order of the Settings page, and even create your own settings pages pretty easily by simply changing some xml. Attached are 3 files to show how this can be done. (to install these, just unzip the zip and copy the three diles into the Windows dir on the phone) The first is "root.cpl.xml", this is the main settings list, i've changed the order of the list so the options are in my most oftenly used sequence. And i've also added a new option called 'Options', this links to the second file called 'mid.cpl.xml' that has options from several options screens such as Alarm on/off, Alarm time, homescreen, ringtone all in one screen. The final file is a rearranged Date and Time screen (clock.cpl.xml), is it just me who thinks the standard order of this is just daft? the only reason for going into it is to turn the alarm on and off, so i've made that the first option now :( Right, lets try and explain how the list works: In the file root.cpl.xml you'll see a list, the first part is the href, this is the file that the option links to, usually an xml file. The second part is the res, which is a number that associates the name of the setting, here is a list of the names (Smartphone 2002, Windows Mobile2003 has several more, which i'll list at a later date).... res="30001"/> // About res="30002"/> // Accessibility res="30003"/> // Call Barring res="30004"/> // Caller ID res="30005"/> // Call Options res="30006"/> // Timer Auto-Reset res="30007"/> // Call Waiting res="30008"/> // Voice Call Forwarding res="30009"/> // Channels res="30010"/> // Date and Time res="30011"/> // Connection res="30012"/> // Data Connections res="30013"/> // Options res="30014"/> // Currency Formats res="30015"/> // Delete Colour Scheme res="30016"/> // Delete Sounds res="30017"/> // Display res="30018"/> // Home Screen res="30019"/> // Networks res="30020"/> // Number Formats res="30021"/> // Owner Information res="30022"/> // Disable Phone Lock res="30023"/> // Enable Phone Lock res="30024"/> // Power Management res="30025"/> // Preferred Networks res="30026"/> // Regional Settings res="30027"/> // Fixed Dialing res="30028"/> // Fixed Dialing Numbers res="30029"/> // Select Network res="30030"/> // Sounds res="30031"/> // Calendar Options res="30032"/> // Conflict Settings res="30033"/> // Connection Options res="30034"/> // Contact Options res="30035"/> // Inbox Options res="30036"/> // PC Settings res="30037"/> // Schedule res="30038"/> // Telephony res="30039"/> // Call Forwarding res="30040"/> // Synchronisation res="30041"/> // Calendar res="30042"/> // Contacts res="30043"/> // Inbox res="30044"/> // Connection res="30045"/> // Conflicts res="30046"/> // Security res="30047"/> // Unconditional res="30048"/> // No Reply res="30049"/> // Busy res="30050"/> // Unavailable res="30051"/> // Settings The actual settings pages are slightly different, in that they contain characteristic and parameter types, but you should quite easily be able to copy bits from one settings page to another, looking at the mid.cpl.xml shows quite well how this can be acheived. We will be creating a file copier very shortly that will copy these files over at bootup, as these pages will currently disappear if you reboot. enjoy :lol: <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
