Toggle Standby (LPM) Screen + Toggle WLAN

A small toggle for the standby/lpm screen on the N9 based upon the request of Win7Mac has been created. He mentioned that going into settings and toggling was too cumbersome hence wanted a toggle on the homescreen.

I don't think this is required by most people (I don't need it too) but since I've done it might as well post it here.

Basically its just 2 icons, 1 sh file and 1 .desktop file.

.DEB for Toggle-LPM:
v1.1.1

.DEBs for Toggle-WLAN:
v1.0.1
v1.0.1-1

All files are here for toggle-lpm and here for toggle-wlan so feel free to modify if requried.

Changelog:

Toggle Wlan v1.0.1 and v1.0.1-1 - 22/02/13:

Added toggling of background connections when enabling/disabling internet connection

Added Toggle WLAN v1.0 and v1.0-1 - 21/02/13:

Toggle WLAN & Internet Connection
Icons by bibek
Only difference between v1.0 & v1.0-1 is the absence of the dbus call in the latter to indicate change of status
mcetools is a must for toggle-wlan; get it from the Harmattan SDK repo or from here. Install it via inception (for regular mode) or FIXED_ORIGIN if in open mode

v1.1.1 - 04/01/13:

Cleaned makefile
Updated Icons courtesy Win7Mac

v1.1 - 03/01/13:

Updated icon to reflect current status when toggled
Files moved to userfs partition

v1.0 - 01/01/13:

Initial release

Re: Toggle Standby (LPM) Screen

Actually I think this could be useful.

I sometimes (not 100% reproducable) have a problem whereby when I perform a reboot, my lpm is off (even though the Settings UI says it is on!) I have (possibly erronously) put this down to some sort of bug/timing issue/race condition with profilmatic, as i have a rule in their that turns on/off my lpm based on certain conditions.

This could be a quick fix.

EDIT: I guess from reading the script it will depend upon whether the my lpm state is correctly mirroring the gconf key or not (I suspect that actually the Settings UI is what is mirroring the gconf key)

This is so great! Thanks a lot!:D

2012-12-31 18:29

Re: Toggle Standby (LPM) Screen

nbedford,

Even if it isn't mirroring the gconf key correctly, the script gets the present gconf then makes the change so maybe toggling more than once fixes it... Do report if it does help as I didn't expect anyone other than Win7Mac to have any use for this :D

Re: Toggle Standby (LPM) Screen

Thanks.

You should put it store or let Win7Mac put it there.

New request: Shortcut to open conversation. its that where you see who is online in FB, Skype...
I cant find or I dont know where to look for how to do it.
Thanks

And bug report if you disable low power screen with this it doesnt ask security code anymore and when you press it to switch lps back on it jumps to screen where you put security code when you open phone.

E: Made screen off very buggy sometimes it skipped wallpaper screen and securitycode screen sometimes I got securitycode screen on random places.
Had to reboot.
not usable for me.

Re: Toggle Standby (LPM) Screen

Mikkosssss,

I've sent you a PM to troubleshoot your issue.

Currently I am able to open a new message using an icon but not to that Contact List yet...

--Edit-- After contacting Mikkosssss over PM it seems a re-install was all he needed to get it working so it means a security lock shouldn't be causing an issue...

MK99, I'll check and report if I can get the method for doing that.

If you like it, put it in /usr/share/icons/hicolor/80x80/apps/ if you're using v1.0
or to /home/user/.local/share/icons/hicolor/apps if you're using v1.1.

It doesn't change when I click it. Icon is allways "on".

The on and off icons are used in the banner message that is displayed when toggled... Implementing an icon that changes between on and off requires svg and when I did this yesterday I didn't have the time to do so... Maybe over the next day or two I'll implement it to do that...

The .deb for v1.1 can be gotten here

The above is taken from the first post. Updated version changes the icon's state as appropriate. Installing over the old version should be no issue but those who want to be 100% safe purge the older version first.

Like I mentioned expressly in the first post I don't have a use for it; it was done on a request by Win7Mac :D

Maybe he wants to toggle it while sleeping etc or like nbedford posted, at times after reboot his standby screen doesn't work as expected...

After all it was an easy toggle to do and I didn't want to post it but since I did it I just posted it here...

I use this app with powersave mode and times when I don't need the standby screen. Its one-touch access is much easier than drilling down into the settings menu every time, so thanks for putting this out for all to enjoy.

Is your imagination really that weak or are you just so ignorant for things you or your girlfriend don't use/want/need?
Personally, I'd prefer to have the toggle in your Status Menu Extensions but since you cancelled support for it, this is just excellent.

I put up new icons, I hope the're more distinguishable (also to clearly differ from Billboard-icon).
If you have other ideas about them please let me know and I'll do my best.
They'll be implemented in the next update v1.1.1 by thedead.
If you want to add them manually, put them in
/home/user/.local/share/icons/hicolor/apps
and go switch it! :)

Would it be a wrong place to ask for a Mobile Data toggle? Based on this : http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...&postcount=983

i messed around for some time, but couldn't get the desktop file working :/

thedead1440

2013-01-20 19:22

Re: Toggle Standby (LPM) Screen

bibek,

Your wish is my command :D

Here you go:

Code:

#!/bin/sh



# Toggle WLAN radio state



STATUS=$(/sbin/mcetool --status | grep -v grep | grep WLAN | awk '{print $2}' | head -1)



if [ $STATUS == "enabled" ]

        then

        dbus-send --print-reply --dest=com.meego.core.MNotificationManager /notificationmanager com.meego.core.MNotificationManager.addNotification uint32:0 uint32:0 string:'device' string:'' string:"WLAN Off" string:'' string:'' uint32:0

        `/sbin/mcetool --disable-radio=wlan`

        else

        dbus-send --print-reply --dest=com.meego.core.MNotificationManager /notificationmanager com.meego.core.MNotificationManager.addNotification uint32:0 uint32:0 string:'device' string:'' string:"WLAN On" string:'' string:'' uint32:0

        `/sbin/mcetool --enable-radio=wlan`

fi

Save the above as /home/user/wlan.sh or anything to your heart's content...

Then for the .desktop file:

Code:

[Desktop Entry]

Encoding=UTF-8

Version=1.0

Type=Application

Terminal=false

Name=Toggle WLAN

Exec=/bin/sh /home/user/wlan.sh

Icon=

X-Window-Icon=

X-HildonDesk-ShowInToolbar=true

X-Osso-Type=application/x-executable

save it as /home/user/.local/share/applications/toggle-wlan.desktop or anything you like and it is good to go ;)

Icons not added; you can add them if you want to...

Re: Toggle Standby (LPM) Screen

Does anyone know where I should start looking, if I wanted to disable/enable the LPM screen bases on available notifications?
The "condition" I am looking for is the presence of a new call/sms/etc notification (which leads to a LPM notification symbol). I'd really appreciate any help or input as to where I can find/query this "condition".

I got the data toggle working, but trying to make it interactive like the LPM isn't working.
Wanted to skip the notification, as it slows down ui during popup. And tried to change the icon name.
Getting errors in syntax and all types of mess.

thedead1440 can you package something like the lpm toggle?

Some Icons attached, in case you need.. from alternative icons thread http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=85769

Here's my code(not working)
#icon name is Data On

Code:

#!/bin/sh



# Toggle WLAN radio state



STATUS=$(/sbin/mcetool --status | grep -v grep | grep WLAN | awk '{print $2}' | head -1)



if [ $STATUS == "enabled" ]

        then

        sed -i 'On/Off/' /home/user/.local/share/applications/netToggle.desktop

        `/sbin/mcetool --disable-radio=wlan`

        else

        dbus-send --print-reply --dest=com.meego.core.MNotificationManager /notificationmanager com.meego.core.MNotificationManager.addNotification uint32:0 uint32:0 string:'device' string:'' string:"WLAN On" string:'' string:'' uint32:0

Get toggle-wlan from here...

If you want the version without the dbus calls get v1.0-1 from here...

You can read the scripts here
