Any info on SHORTCUTS app update for PR1.2???

Hey guys,
does anyone have an access to the dev of SHORTCUTS app, available in Store?
People have been bombing him with PR1.2 update requests, the guy just don`t respond...
It`s really crucial as a lot of people are unable to change the Shortcuts setting after the PR1.2 update (it stayed locked even after the app was uninstalled)...you can still install the app, though, but what you eventually get is a black screen and return to the home menu after a few seconds...

Re: Any info on SHORTCUTS app update for PR1.2???

hi there, i had a same problem even i downloaded the purchased version, but what i did is a device refresh and from that day it work fine for me. Even pro version of shortcut have a option to creat more than one set of shortcuts,and choose which one you want to activate. I hope it will help you all,for that problem.

Re: Any info on SHORTCUTS app update for PR1.2???

a device refresh?
what do you mean by that?
THX

Re: Any info on SHORTCUTS app update for PR1.2???

i mean reset the device,with restore settings options.
thanks

Re: Any info on SHORTCUTS app update for PR1.2???

alright, and after that it's supposed to work?

Re: Any info on SHORTCUTS app update for PR1.2???

yep, the Shortcuts work after the restore, however it doesn`t work with the PR1.2 folders...once you restore the folders, the Shortcuts are messed up as before (in my case, I ended up with only 3 shortcuts after the PR1.2 update and though it worked for a second, after the restore it`s same again)
the app definitely needs a proper PR1.2 update

Re: Any info on SHORTCUTS app update for PR1.2???

No reply from developer so far. Lets keep pushing though. I really miss ability to change shortcuts on PR1.2

It is easy to change the shortcuts.

go to /home/user/.local/share/applications
there are 4 Files "quicklaunchbarX.desktop"

Edit them by your self.
Example for Shortcut4 ( Mail )

Code:

[Desktop Entry]

Encoding=UTF-8

Version=0.1

Type=Application

Name=Fenix Mail

Icon=icon-l-email

Exec=/usr/bin/invoker --global-syms --wait-term --type=m /usr/bin/fenix %U

MimeType=x-maemo-highlight/email-address;x-maemo-urischeme/mailto;x-maemo-urischeme/qmf;x-maemo-nepomuk/email;message/rfc822;

Categories=Office;X-MeeGo;X-Messages;Email;

OnlyShowIn=X-MeeGo;

X-MeeGo-Logical-Id=qtn_comm_appname_mail

X-MeeGo-Translation-Catalog=accountssso,activesync,common,mail,transfer

X-Maemo-Service=com.nokia.fenix

Save this as "quicklaunchbar4.desktop"

For other App´s look at /usr/share/applications.

Sorry for my English ;)

Re: Any info on SHORTCUTS app update for PR1.2???

@superjunior
Thanks for sharing your findings!
I tried to change shortcut, but still didn't manage to get it working. There is symbolic link pointing to application in /usr/share/applications as well.
Have you managed to successfully replace a shortcut?

EDIT: I even lost the shortcut I was trying to change.

Yes, i did. Without any Problems.

What for a Shortcut do you want ? And Position ? 1-2-3-4 ?

Re: Any info on SHORTCUTS app update for PR1.2???

I wanted to add MeefastDial instead oh "Phone" app. So I notice it is that quicklaunchbarX.desktop entry is exact copy of application.desktop file in /usr/share/applications
I just renamed quicklaunchbar0.desktop to bkp.quicklaunchbar0.desktop then copied meefast.desktop to .local/share/applications/quicklaunchbar0.desktop
After that - no icon in launch bar.
Then I tried to get thing back again, renaming the files. So now I have the original quicklaunchbar0.desktop for Phone, pointing to the correct entry, but still no icon shown in quick launch bar.

Re: Any info on SHORTCUTS app update for PR1.2???

Now i have the same issue !

I will look in to it.

Re: Any info on SHORTCUTS app update for PR1.2???

I will also try to find solution to this. It all looks quite straightforward, so we might be able to figure out a way to change the shortcuts.
I haven't tried rebooting, 'cause it is last resort when you have no ideas :)
EDIT: Below are all my shortcuts:

Code:

lrwxrwxrwx    1 user     users           44 Feb 22 08:35 quicklaunchbar0.desktop -> /usr/share/applications/call-history.desktop

lrwxrwxrwx    1 user     users           36 Feb 22 08:35 quicklaunchbar1.desktop -> /usr/share/applications/mail.desktop

lrwxrwxrwx    1 user     users           41 Feb 22 08:35 quicklaunchbar2.desktop -> /usr/share/applications/camera-ui.desktop

lrwxrwxrwx    1 user     users           39 Feb 22 08:35 quicklaunchbar3.desktop -> /usr/share/applications/browser.desktop

And here is the quicklauncbar0.desktop file:

Code:

[Desktop Entry]

Type=Application

Name=Phone

Exec=/usr/bin/invoker --type=m /usr/bin/call-history

Icon=icon-l-telephony

X-MeeGo-Logical-Id=qtn_comm_appname_call

X-Maemo-Service=com.nokia.telephony.callhistory

OnlyShownIn=X-MeeGo;

It is the original one, I have just renamed it. Everything seems like it was before.

And here is the /usr/share/applications/call-history.desktop file that the symlink is pointing to:

Code:

[Desktop Entry]

Type=Application

Name=Phone

Exec=/usr/bin/invoker --type=m /usr/bin/call-history

Icon=icon-l-telephony

X-MeeGo-Logical-Id=qtn_comm_appname_call

X-Maemo-Service=com.nokia.telephony.callhistory

OnlyShownIn=X-MeeGo;

Identical with quicklauncbar0.desktop entry.

EDIT1: It looks that quicklaunchbarX.desktop entries I try to create appear as normal desktop entries in launcher. Currently I have 2 (functioning!) "Phone" icons in launcher. Obviously one is from /usr/share/applications/call-history.desktop entry and the other is from ./local/share/applications/quicklaunchbar0.desktop entry. So quicklaunchbarX.desktop edited entries are not recognised as such. We have to find a way to make them so.

EDIT2: I rebooted device hoping that may be quicklauncher will be re-initialised and will recognise "Phone" entry correctly - alas, issue still present.

You´re right !!

I create a symlink

Code:

ln -s /usr/share/applications/mail.desktop /home/user/.local/share/applications/quicklaunchbar3.desktop

but doesnt work.

I have to restore my backup. All ist fine !!
The .desktop-Files looks the same as befor.

I have absolutely no Idea what is going on :D :D
I´m look in to it, again ;)

Really sorry for my English :D

Re: Any info on SHORTCUTS app update for PR1.2???

Done :D :D

I have changed so many things, again and again .... ;)
I post my files tomorrow. I hope these works for you.

Good Night :D

Re: Any info on SHORTCUTS app update for PR1.2???

Great buddy! I didn't have time to play a lot, give me a hint where to look? What parameters did you change? I hope you have found reliable procedure to change quick launch shortcuts.
I get the quicklaunchbarX.desktop files are just symlinks to real desktop shortcuts. So everything must be very easy - just delete symlink you don't need and create the one you want. But that does not work for some reason.

PS. What do you think is wrong with your English?! A lot better than my German I have to admit ;)

Re: Any info on SHORTCUTS app update for PR1.2???

I know the developer of the Shortcuts app personally and he is working on the update. He has had some big things going on in his life at the moment such as having a baby. So stay tuned, if he doesn't get it done soon I will be on his case about it. ;)

Re: Any info on SHORTCUTS app update for PR1.2???

Hey Guys.

I will try it ;) This is what i do.

1. Rename the default .desktopfiles to "quicklaunchbar1.desktop-org" and "quicklaunchbar3.desktop-org"

2. create 2 desktopfiles ( no symlink, )

MeefastDial (quicklaunchbar1.desktop)

Code:

[Desk[Desktop Entry]

Encoding=UTF-8

Version=1.0

Type=Application

Terminal=False

Name=MeeFastDial

Name[ru]=Быстр. набор

Exec=/usr/bin/invoker --single-instance --type=m -s /opt/meeFastDial/bin/meefastdial -prestart

X-Maemo-Service=com.nokia.meefastdial

Icon=/usr/share/icons/hicolor/80x80/apps/meeFastDial80.png

X-Window-Icon=

X-HildonDesk-ShowInToolbar=true

X-Osso-Type=application/x-executable

Mail (quicklaunchbar3.desktop)

Code:

[Desktop Entry]

Type=Application

Name=Fenix Mail

Icon=icon-l-email

Exec=/usr/bin/invoker --global-syms --wait-term --type=m /usr/bin/fenix %U

MimeType=x-maemo-highlight/email-address;x-maemo-urischeme/mailto;x-maemo-urischeme/qmf;x-maemo-nepomuk/email;message/rfc822;

Categories=Office;X-MeeGo;X-Messages;Email;

OnlyShowIn=X-MeeGo;

X-MeeGo-Logical-Id=qtn_comm_appname_mail

X-MeeGo-Translation-Catalog=accountssso,activesync,common,mail,transfer

X-Maemo-Service=com.nokia.fenix

3.Copy und save to /home/user/.local/share/applications/

4. Reboot ( or maybe refresh/restart the desktop but i dont no the command )

5. Now, look in to /home/user/.config/meegotouchhome.nokia/launcherbuttons.data

Example for MeefastDial (quicklaunchbar1)

Code:

and go down to Line "usr/share/applications/meefastdial.desktop" and change or add a new Line to

Code:

usr\share\applications\meefastdial.desktop=quicklaunchbar/1

7. Reboot

It´s really easy to do but i hope it works for you. Create a .desktopfile and add a Line. Thats all.

Good Luck ;)

Thank you buddy! Did it and now it works. Seem like a not so clean hack but does the job. :)
Thank you once again for the time you put into this!

Re: Any info on SHORTCUTS app update for PR1.2???

Looking forward to updated Shortcuts app :)

Re: Any info on SHORTCUTS app update for PR1.2???

Hey.

I found this app.
Works fine for me.

Re: Any info on SHORTCUTS app update for PR1.2???

@superjunior
Working for me as well! Nice find! :) I owe you two beers already! :P

PS. Download link to dropbox is NOT working for me, had to google it to find from where to download. I downloaded from here: http://www.mediafire.com/?819f7hf5dfex4rx

Re: Any info on SHORTCUTS app update for PR1.2???

OK Guys its official, Check the attachment for proof. Pro and free versions should be getting an update very soon.

Re: Any info on SHORTCUTS app update for PR1.2???

@Vromoth
Very good, because Shortcuts is in OVI, so everybody will be able to update and use it. QuickBarControl is stable and working, but not being on OVI makes it not so widely available to users of N9.

Re: Any info on SHORTCUTS app update for PR1.2???

any news?
(here working link for quickbarcontrol http://4kpizhma.spaces.ru/files/?sid...&read=30833407)

Re: Any info on SHORTCUTS app update for PR1.2???

I have the source and going through it and trying to fix it. I'll get back to you on it.

Re: Any info on SHORTCUTS app update for PR1.2???

hello! still waiting... how is going?

Re: Any info on SHORTCUTS app update for PR1.2???

Today I tried the app and didn't work I think we need to keep waiting for a while :(

The dev no longer works on the harmattan platform. However he did give the source to me to fix it. But I kind of forgot about it. I'll take another look into fixing it, can't guaranty anything though. If I can't fix it though I'll see about passing it onto a more equipped developer.
