Hardware library was updated - 3.10

[Erel]

The hardware library now also supports VibrateStart / VibrateStop and ShowTodayScreen method.
Using ShowTodayScreen you can create background applications.
See the example in the help manual: http://www.b4x.com/help/hardware/index.html

It can be downloaded here: www.b4x.com/Downloads.html

Erel,
Thanks for your swift response.
I really can feel the "First priority support" upon my purchase of your Basic4ppc Enterprise Version at 89.00$ (US Dollars).

The next homework is to generate a tone with frequency of xHz where x is between 1Hz and 20000Hz.
The command may look like:
Hardware.Frequency(1750)
Sleep(1000)
Hardware.FrequencyStop

Really looking forward to your response.

Thanks a lot...

Does everyone enjoy this?

When run, an error message "Hardware does not support this method"
is raised:

Sub Timer1_Tick
Sound("tick.wav")
Hardware.VibrateStart
Sleep(100)
Hardware.VibrateStop
Bicara = SubString(Format((Round((Now-StartTime)/cTicksPerSecond)) Mod 60, "d2"),0,2)
TextBox2.Text = Bicara
If Bicara = "38" Then
Hardware.VibrateStart
Sleep(100)
Hardware.VibrateStop
End If
If Bicara = "52" Then
Hardware.VibrateStart
Sleep(200)
Hardware.VibrateStop
Sleep(200)
Hardware.VibrateStart
Sleep(200)
Hardware.VibrateStop
End If
End Sub

The Vibrate methods use the native Vibrate methods.
Unfortunately not all devices implement these methods.

 

[eddy_ys]

Then, any solution in implementing the native methods in WM6 of my DOPOD D810 alias CHT9100?

 

[Erel]

We will continue to check it.

Attached is a small (unofficial) library (C# source code included) which can activate and deactivate PPC notification leds.

Usualy notification led 0 is a really led and led 1 (in most cases) is the vibration mechanism.

Basic4PPC .sbp test file included.

If it works OK, Erel can add it to hardware library.

Erel,

This is great! With these three new hardware methods alone, you've really made B4PPC more appealing to PPC Phone devs like myself. Thanks again for the excellent work.

You are excellent, marvellous, cool, great.....

Erel,
You should give a prize to Dimitris for his great work to your "First priority User" like me.


Thank you Basic4PPC!!!!
Thank you Erel....

Dimitris, I truly join eddy_ys with these compliments:

And I'll include it in the next Hardware update.

I have tested on my O2 Xda Exec ,it works ok.thanks a lot.
but in my device the "led 0 on" is turn the led off and "led 0 on" is turn the led on,I don't know why.

 

[dzt]

Hi,

Actualy notification led on drives to a blinking led. If the led was on before, it will start blinking also. Behaves like this or stays permanently off?

If it works OK, Erel can add it to hardware library.

@DZT: I converted your C# source code to VB.NET and added it to my RawIr.dll :sign0188:

First thing I found, (even with your dzLEDs.dll), I can use led.ActivateLed(1) to make the Led flash,
but have to use led.DeActivateLed(0) to stop it flashing. Otherwise I have to do a soft reset to stop it flashing.

I've tried everything to alter the rate of the flash but have been totally unsuccessful. I've tried adding subs for all of the below structure settings, but nothing changes the rate. Is it possible, is that why it isn't implemented in dzLEDs.dll

   Friend Structure NLED_SETTINGS_INFO
         Public LedNum As Integer
         Public OffOnBlink As Integer
         Public TotalCycleTime As Integer
         Public OnTime As Integer
         Public OffTime As Integer
         Public MetaCycleOn As Integer
         Public MetaCycleOff As Integer
      End Structure

The addition of your code to my .dll was purely for my own satisfaction that I could do it. It won't be released.

The credit is still with you :sign0098:

Hi taximania,

I didn't try to achieve different behaviour at all so I can't help you.

I've just read many posts saying LEDs does not behave the same in different devices.

The addition of your code to my .dll was purely for my own satisfaction that I could do it. It won't be released

Don't warry, use it for any purpose.

Happy new Year

Vibration on Omnia i900

I just tried the lib on an Omnia i900 and i worked great, but the led number to vibrate is 11 not 0.
