MioPocket Changelog =============================================== ** MioPocket 4.0 (Release 68) - Dec 6, 2010 ** (Osprey) =============================================== 1. Helpful error messages will now display when an app is run via a shell icon and doesn't work. This is because a new utility (by TroNik) automatically runs when you press an icon, checks for all of the app's dependencies (much like EXE Check) prior to launching the app and displays error messages for any dependencies that are missing. Unlike EXE Check, it can identify exactly which dependencies (ex. which .dll files) are missing. As before, you will still need to either supply the missing files or run EXE Check to actually correct the problem. Section 5.9 of the Readme has been updated with instructions on exactly what to do for each type of error message. (credit to TroNik) 2. Fixed an issue from R67 whereby paths weren't getting fixed when MioPocket was installed to a drive named other than Storage Card, resulting in "Cannot find <filename>.mscr" errors, among others. Also fixed a few paths in icons.Defaults.xml that caused the same problem for a few of the games introduced in R67. 3. Ole32.dll and Oleaut32.dll are no longer copied to \Windows if the device comes with them. This has the potential to fix Explorer-related issues on some devices. (credit to TroNik) 4. Fixed a rounding error that slightly affected free space checking during installation. (credit to TroNik and jwoegerbauer) 5. Fixed a toolhelp.dll problem that could cause MortScript to crash on CE6 devices. (credit to jwoegerbauer) 6. The Orion service (which tends to interfere with getting satellite lock in some GPS apps) is now disabled on startup for devices that come with it. If this happens to *cause* problems getting satellite lock, search for "Orion" in MioAutoRun\Scripts\Initialize.mscr and add a # in front of the "Run" line. 7. Fixed an "Icon editing is disabled" error when using the Old Skins Add-on and trying to enter Icon Edit Mode on an old skin. 8. Fixed a "LoadPage" error in MioPocket Settings when using the Old Skins Add-on. 9. Fixed the startup menu not showing the correct menu options for SD installation. Also, the startup menu now recognizes magellan.exe as a possible Magellan executable name. (credit to mr.nonobservant) 10. Added to startup for 320x240 devices a question asking whether to adjust the font size, since the procedure has been known to hang some devices. Also, now, the procedure occurs only on the very first startup. 11. Fixed a small scripting bug in checking whether the device has a hive registry or not. (credit to jwoegerbauer) 12. Compressed all PNG files, saving about 1.5MB. (credit to jwoegerbauer) 13. Fixed Skin Changer and Lockscreen not working. =============================================== ** MioPocket 4.0 (Release 67) - Nov 8, 2010 ** (Osprey) =============================================== 1. Added GSFinder, a file manager which features tree view, drag-and-drop, context menus (tap and hold), copying to the clipboard, Open With, zip support, file search and more. 2. Added three games: Reversi, Rubik Disc and Traffic Jam. Reversi replaces GoMoku (which is rather unplayable without a stylus, but is still available via the start menu). 3. Replaced the Rubik game with a different one that looks slightly better, controls slightly better and doesn't require that the screen be rotated (meaning that it loads a lot more quickly). 4. Added the ability for installation to import registry files specific to any resolution. Just create a folder named <screenwidth>x<screenheight> under MioAutoRun\Registry (ex. MioAutoRun\Registry\640x480) and copy registry files there. If the folder name matches the device's resolution, the registry files in it will be imported during installation. This addition is mostly for people who wish to extend MioPocket or use its scripts and folder structure in their own projects. 5. Fixed the SIP (Software Input Panel) keyboard on CE4 devices. 6. Fixed the MiniBar becoming hidden after changing the volume via the MiniMenu while a Flash-based game is running. 7. Fixed "ProcExists" error on some devices when using the startup menu. 8. Possibly fixed error with choosing "Run MioPocket" from the startup menu simply closing and re-displaying the menu. 9. Fixed a few "Sub must not be in control structure" errors in rare cases when trying to install MioPocket. 10. Tweaked the "Media Player" icon to better match the app's skin. 11. Replaced MioAutoRun\Programs\MortScript\MortScript.exe with the compressed version (the way that it was a few releases ago), since some devices have some programs with the uncompressed version. =============================================== ** MioPocket 4.0 (Release 66) - Sep 26, 2010 ** (Osprey) =============================================== 1. Fixed the shell icon text being too small on 320x240 devices. 2. Fixed shell startup prompting about replacing new icons and settings even after the user answered No on a previous startup. Now, a No answer will move the new files to a backup named "New Icons and Settings" under Skin Changer's "Backups and Defaults" menu. Also, restoring any backup will backup the current icons and settings to a backup named "Old Icons and Settings." Finally, the question about replacing icons and settings now makes it more clear to the user that their changes will be lost and points them to the "Backups and Defaults" menu if they should ever want them back. 3. Tweaked AlReader's configuration so that finger swiping can be used to change pages and bringing up the menu is easier to do by tapping. 4. If the My Documents path is defined in MioPocket.ini, but doesn't exist on the drive, it will now be created. 5. Removing MioPocket via the script will now import the backed up USB settings, if they exist. 6. Fixed Calc98 rotating on 320x240 displays when it's no longer necessary (due to the change in R64). 7. Fixed multiple "MioAutoRun\System\Extra" paths being added to the SystemPath. =============================================== ** MioPocket 4.0 (Release 65) - Sep 20, 2010 ** (Osprey) =============================================== 1. Fixed ActiveSync on many devices. 2. Fixed playing of .flv files in Media Player, as well as, maybe, fixed crashes on running the app for some users. 3. Tweaked the XP Silver and XP Royale taskbar skins by removing the word "Start" so that the graphics are not larger than the actual, clickable area. This "fixes" the issue of the start button not responding when the right half of the graphic was clicked. Also, dithered the Windows 7 skin graphics to look a little better. 4. Fixed the "Disable/enable animations" and "Enable/disable 12-hour time display" options not appearing in MioPocket Settings. 5. Fixed the shell leaving a gap at the bottom of the screen (where the minimized taskbar would be) when exiting certain apps (like AlReader) and rotating back to landscape mode. Also hacked AlReader to not display the taskbar. 6. Copied two SIP DLLs to MioAutoRun\System\FlashDrive so that they're copied to the flash drive during installation. 7. Uncompressed some EXE and DLL files to save some memory when they're loaded. 8. Fixed copying of netui.dll for devices with WiFi cards enabled. 9. Added option to MioPocket Settings to disable/enable Windows CE's Bluetooth service. This might save help battery power on devices that don't have Bluetooth or for users that don't use Bluetooth. It's automatically disabled on some devices that don't have Bluetooth. =============================================== ** MioPocket 4.0 (Release 64) - Sep 15, 2010 ** (Osprey) =============================================== 1. Added MMCE, a powerful image viewer that supports gestures (swipe left/right for next/previous image and up/down to zoom in/out). 2. Added World Clock, an app for viewing times around the world, as well other useful information (like sunrise/sunset times, country calling codes, area codes and airport codes). 3. Upgraded Opera Mini to v5.1. 4. Added larger MiniBar and MiniMenu skins for 800x480 displays. 5. Fixed MioPocket not auto-launching after exiting a nav app when "Close MioPocket during nav apps" (default) is enabled. 6. Fixed the "Set Language" menu option in MioPocket Settings not saving the change. 7. Fixed Control Panel being empty on CE4 devices. 8. Fixed navigation app launching on some devices. 9. Fixed installation hanging on "Configuring skin..." for some 320x240 devices. 10. Fixed startup issues on some devices. 11. Possibly fixed Task Manager not showing its main menu bar (which includes the exit button) on some devices. 12. Fixed Pocket Uno crashing with a "BadImageFormatException" error on some devices. 13. Soft resetting the device will now also try a fourth reset method if the first three don't work. 14. Reduced screen rotation time by about 5 seconds, including when portrait games are run. 15. Enlarging and shrinking text on the Main Icons page of Skin Changer will now enlarge or shrink the icon spacing. Also, set the default icon spacing to something slightly larger so that there are only 3 columns of icons in portrait mode at 480x272 (to fix text overlapping). 16. Fixed installation hanging in Device Emulator when trying to reset. It will run the shell without reset, instead. 17. Tweaked Calc98's layout on 320x240 displays to display all buttons without any overlap. =============================================== ** MioPocket 4.0 (Release 63) - Sep 6, 2010 ** (Osprey) =============================================== 1.
