Guest bretto Posted April 20, 2005 Report Posted April 20, 2005 (edited) Hi All Thought someone might find this little homescreen plugin useful. I just knocked it up to make life easier in the car. Its a simple plugin to add to your homescreen that toggles the bluetooth on/discoverable and off. To use it add it as below to your desired homescreen .xml file. Then when using the homescreen select the plugin and use the action key. If the bluetooth is off and the action key is pressed you will be asked if you want to make bluetooth discoverable. yes will make discoverable and no will make it on and not discoverable. If the bluetooth is on or discoverable and the action key is pressed you will simply be asked if you want to turn it off. Yes will turn it off and no will leave it. At any point the plugin will display the current status of the bluetooth device. There is an included sample homescreen too. Pretty ugly though at best. // <!-- USAGE --> // <!-- SPBT plugin! --> // <!-- all background and format attributes are supported. --> // <!-- clsid="{40DF3431-0266-11cf-BAA6-00AA003E0EED}" --> // <!-- height="20" (specifies the height of SPBTPlug) --> // <!-- selectable="Yes" or "No" (specifies if SPBTPlug is selectable) --> // <!-- (inserts the bluetooth status in the text node) --> // eg name="SPBTPlug" height="20" selectable="Yes" > bgcolor="COLOR_HOMEHIGHLIGHT" bgimage="<\imagename>.bmp" halign="center" valign = "center" l-border-width="2" t-border-width="1" r-border-width="1" b-border-width="1" l-border-color="#FFFFFF" t-border-color="#000000" r-border-color="#00ff00" b-border-color="#FF00FF" /> bgtext="#00FF00" padding-left="10" padding-right="10" padding-top="5" padding-bottom="5" font-face="Arial" font-size="10" font-style="italics" font-weight="400" x="120" y="5" w="22" h="22" halign="left" valign="center" /> bgcolor="#0000FF" bgtext="#00FF00" padding-left="10" padding-right="10" padding-top="5" padding-bottom="5" font-face="Arial" font-size="10" font-style="italics" font-weight="400" x="30" y="5" w="22" h="22" halign="center" valign="center" /> Bluetooth ///////////////////// //And here are the files.

Guest bretto Posted May 1, 2005 Report Posted May 1, 2005 can someone take a screen shot or two.. thx! <{POST_SNAPBACK}> There is not much to put on a screenshot. As the main post points out its a homescreen plugin that you can include in your own homescreen. If you set it up like this Bluetooth the homescreen will then look something like this. Bluetooth On or Bluetooth Off or Bluetooth Discoverable
