Guest stevie_mac Posted August 25, 2005 Report Posted August 25, 2005 (edited) Updated Hi, thought it was about time I gave something back to the community! Some time ago, I needed a stopwatch & realised the "Smartphone" didn't have one (or at least I couldn't find one anyhoo!) so I created one. Its intended use was to time several items at once (e.g. a race). I don't like standard Start / Lap /Stop timers so I laid it out as 8 individual timers. Each one can be started / stopped individually & they are Count up / Count down configurable. It is quite basic & does what I initially intended it to do (minus some features I'd planned like saving the setup, beautifying etc).See updates below Normally I'd have done this in C++ (so It could be used on WM2002 & WM2003) but I was in a hurry & so did it in C# - my apologies to the WM2002 users! Unfortunately, still true! I have attached the executable (it should work without installation) and a CAB if you need / prefer to use that. NOTES: This application is... 1. Fully functional Plus some more 2. Free Still free 4. Not guaranteed in any manner or fashion (insert std disclaimer here) Still True This application is not... 1. Beautified No longer true, now its quite tidy! 2. Purported to be atomic clock accurate 3. Finished (as in some features I'd hoped to add are not done - I might finish it one day!) Almost true 4. Thoroughly bug / operation / spell checked HOW IT WORKS: 1. Start the application 2. Select the timer to using the joystick / rocker. push the action button to Start / Stop the timer. Alternatively, press 1 to Start / Stop timer 1, press 2 to Start / Stop timer 2 etc etc (there are 8 timers) 3. Press * to Start / Stop all timers 4. Press # to reset all timers. 5. Press 0 to reset the selected timer 6. Press 9 to configure the selected timer. 7. Press Call to cycle through the timers (action key on WM2005) MORE.. > Count completion audible alert / vibration alert > HTML Report output > Save & load up to 5 timer 'Sets' Regards - Steve Mac.

Guest awarner [MVP] Posted August 26, 2005 Report Posted August 26, 2005 Nice one :) Can you please add it to the Downloads section?
Guest monkeyjabber Posted December 23, 2005 Report Posted December 23, 2005 If you need a stopwatch, you can also try RJV Clock. It has a nice interface, and its free. It can be found here: http://www.modaco.com/index.php?showtopic=...jv%20clock&st=0

Guest limox9 Posted July 4, 2006 Report Posted July 4, 2006 (edited) Hi, Stevie! That CAB does NOT install on IPAQ 6510 (WM2003) .. i dunno why. He said: it's not Windows CE (!?) CAB. What i do wrong? P.S. Thanx for that stuff - it's best stopwatch i've used before. I have previous version on my T-Mobile, works perfect! Edited July 4, 2006 by limox9
Guest stevie_mac Posted July 5, 2006 Report Posted July 5, 2006 Hi, Stevie! That CAB does NOT install on IPAQ 6510 (WM2003) .. i dunno why. He said: it's not Windows CE (!?) CAB. What i do wrong? P.S. Thanx for that stuff - it's best stopwatch i've used before. I have previous version on my T-Mobile, works perfect! Hi limox9, the cab was made for smartphone & that is why it wont install. The reason is that although the program will work on a PDA running WM2003, there are issues. No touch screen support (on main screen & custom time entry control) Screen is not recalculated properly when rotated (is ok if you start in portrait / landscape - but is odd when you change) or when keyboard is displayed Backgrounds for different size screens are currenly static (not auto generated) and I have not yet created all combinations of resolutions (actually, I need to generate background rather than have static images as there are more and more different resolutions cropping up.I may get around to these at some point (and add some features suggested in another thread) but time is tight at the moment. That said, If you wanna run it on your IPAQ 6510, copy the files installed on your smartphone to a folder on your IPAQ 6510. It will work, but with the limitations I explained above. Regards, Steve.
Guest koolkingkai Posted June 1, 2007 Report Posted June 1, 2007 super super awesome, thanks a bunch. i was looking for a countdown timer and watch8 is so much more then i was looking for thanks again
Guest xiejun3970 Posted June 1, 2007 Report Posted June 1, 2007 ok ,better than that old one i used ,thank you
Guest TopDog Posted July 8, 2007 Report Posted July 8, 2007 This is just what I was looking for, and then some! I can confirm it works fine on WM6 (HTC Vox) as long as you keep it in portrait mode :)
Guest darcon Posted July 21, 2007 Report Posted July 21, 2007 Works great on my Tmobile Dash with WM6 Thank you!!! :)
Guest stevie_mac Posted September 16, 2007 Report Posted September 16, 2007 Updated - mainly to support rotation and square screens. http://www.modaco.com/downloads-file1153.html Steve.
Guest Nacron Posted September 30, 2007 Report Posted September 30, 2007 This app tells me that I don't have the right version of .net framework. I'm running WM2003SE on a MPX220
Guest Wombleuk Posted October 22, 2007 Report Posted October 22, 2007 Don't want to be picky with a 'free' app, but how often is it going to ask me for a donation?
Guest stevie_mac Posted October 26, 2007 Report Posted October 26, 2007 Don't want to be picky with a 'free' app, but how often is it going to ask me for a donation? Cheeky ;-) Oh dear, I guess there is a problem! It should only show once - after 5 uses from install. Tell me, do your settings save OK? Can you add a timer set & does it persist after closing & reopening the application? Can you browse to the installation folder & tel me what value is assigned to "app.rc" in the file "config.ini"? it should be increment with each usage. If it is stuck at 5 then change it to 6! Steve. Hi, Stevie! That CAB does NOT install on IPAQ 6510 (WM2003) .. i dunno why. He said: it's not Windows CE (!?) CAB. What i do wrong? P.S. Thanx for that stuff - it's best stopwatch i've used before. I have previous version on my T-Mobile, works perfect! It would seem with some new features i added - I have started using .NET2 framework which it appears does not install on 2003 (i think it was something to do with touch adding screen support & rotation. My apologies, If I get time, I will try to remove these dependencies without removing any functionality. for now though, it would seen to be a no go! Steve. PS, sorry for the delay in responding.
Guest Wombleuk Posted October 26, 2007 Report Posted October 26, 2007 Steve, it's only asked me once so far, but I didn't know if it was going to continue. It's not something I'll be using much anyway, just a nice-to-have. thanks, Graham
Guest My_Immortal Posted February 20, 2008 Report Posted February 20, 2008 I am quite impressed because it works perfectly on my landscape screen WM6 smartphone! Thank you very much, it is exactly what I needed!! :)
