Arrow [APP] WonderMoto2- Super Utility

WonderMoto 2

Here is a superb program for A1200/E6 that I have been using for more than a week.
It is called Wondermoto2, released by Fabian Arias at www.comunidadmoviles.com
Here is the original link:
http://www.comunidadmoviles.com/a1200_2_wondermoto_2_recargado-t44011.0.html


I’ve translated it from Spanish to English (It is google translation, but it is pretty accurate).

Some of its features are:

EXPLORE MENU:
1. Check memory usage (internal as well as card)
2. File browser - dosplays files on both phone and SD card.
3. Enable/Disable Swap partition - see SwapManager thread for more details on how this works
4. Enable/Disable CPU Overclock
5. Connect to PC via USBNet
6. Enable/Disable Fakedsm
7. Enable/Disable MotoVision (Webcamera for A1200)

SYSTEM MENU:
1. Program options (like voice menu male/female/off, skins for the program, etc)
1. Backup/Restore data (see below)
2. Uninstall pkg applications - turns on attribute that lets you uninstall PKG apps
3. Dedrak's Java Hacker to hack java permissions - see Dedrak's Java Hacker thread for what this does.
4. Hide/Unhide ‘Personal’ folder on card

UTILITIES MENU: (Everyone will love this…)
1. Skins - Install skins
2. Aspect -> Colors - Change skin colours (menu text, button text, wallpaper)
3. Aspect -> Font - Change fonts
4. Aspect -> Transparency - Change wallpaper transparency
5. Extras -> Dos - DOSbox
6. Extras -> Radio - Wireless Radio
7. Extras -> Clock - Vistaclock - see APP: VistaClock thread for more info on how to configure this.


It supports voice menu read-out but it is in Spanish so the English users can disable it by
SYSTEM—>WONDER—>VOICE—>SILENT

The menus are a bit slow to load, so be patient.
Next time I get some time, I’ll try to make it faster.

Attached are two versions of the same program, where wondermoto2.rar(12mb) is the program with voice while wondermoto2-light.rar(7.6mb) is the program in which the Spanish voice feature has been removed.


IMPORTANT: It takes about 3-4 minutes to install on phone. Do not get impatient and turn off your phone thinking it is stuck!! .


Use Notes (from Spanish forum)
  1. Installation: Some people have reported that this will not install correctly using Superman. Author recommends using MPKG to install. I used SmartAsst and it installed fine on my phone. Also several users report in Spanish forum that this app may not work on A1200E
    .
  2. 10 Second Rule: None of the Menu's have Cancel or Exit options as the author only had 3 buttons to work with and wanted to use them all for functions. So he has coded the app that if you do not make a selection within 10 seconds, the app exits. This can be rather a pain when using it as you have to be quick, but it is workable!
    .
  3. Installer: as well as all of the functions that the program has in its menus, it is also a "super" installer. You can use this app to install PKG and LIN files (Hold stylus on pkg or lin file until menu pops up; select Open with.." and select WonderMoto)!
    .
    It can also uncompress a large number of file formats. The files that can be opened by WonderMoto2 are:

    ...ART ...CFG ...GSX ...GZ ...INI ...INF ...LIN ...PKG ...MTF ...PSKN ...PHN....RAR ...SH ...TAR ...TBM ...TGZ ...TTF ...TXT ...WMC...ZIP
    .
  4. Uninstall function: The way the Uninstall works is that PKG apps normally have the option to allow them to be uninstalled turned off (i.e. uninstall option is greyed out on popup menu). Wondermoto runs a scripts that turns that option on permanently for each installed PKG app. This is different from the way the same function works in SmartAsst where you turn on Uninstall, then have to turn it off again to allow you to run your PKG apps.
    .
    Warning: be careful, on some firmwares (53P and possibly all H2 fws) it appears to disable running all PKG apps altogether (You will get "Invalid file" msg when clicking on their icon. The only way that has been found to get them running again is to use SmartAsst and use its Uninstall/Run mode to force the apps back to Run mode (and turning off the Uninstall option again). If that does not work, then you will have to reinstall all of them all over again!
    .
  5. Skin function: per the author, the skin installer will delete all previous skin files from the ezx_usr folder before installing the new one, so there should be no danger of you filling up the phones memory and causing the dreaded frozen phone syndrome. I reviewed all 33 pages of the Wondermoto thread at Spanish site and nobody ever complained of this happening to them.
    .
  6. Application Skins: The program comes with 3 skins to change the look of the WonderMoto: CLASSICAL, VISTA and ZOMBIE PARTY
    .
    But you can also create your own external skins. These must be called name.Wms. A skin for WonderMoto2 consists of 27 icons and menus for the different performances of files.
    i). All icons to be used shold be put in a folder called "skin". This folder should it should compressed to a rar file: compress. rar
    ii). Once compressed rename to myskinname.wms (WonderMotoSkin). Eg: skin.rar -> Ocean.wms.
    iii). This file can be stored anywhere on SD card or phone. Select it using WonderMoto skins function.
    .
  7. Aspect function - this is a great function that allows you to change the color of the (i) the background wallpaper hue (ii) the text in the App Manager, (iii) the selected background color (the color that indicates which item in a menu is selected) and (iv) button text. It also allows you to adjust the transparency of the wallpaper. It walks you through a series of questions to do this, though not that easy to get the color you want because each color is made by selecting the %'s of red, blue and green - but it is fun to play with..
    .
    Warning: do not use the Save or Load Aspect function on H2 firmwares. This function is meant to allow you to save a set of colors that you like and load that set again later. However, if you do a Load on H2 firmwares (and possibly others), there is a bug in it that completely screws up the phone's skin and disables all PKG applications. (It took me an hour to figure out how to fix it again - you can restore the skin by using Linloader, then you have to reinstall WonderMoto)
    .
  8. Radio function - if you click on the radio function then it shoudl start the radio with head phones app - however this does not work on all firmwares. If you click on it and nothing happens then this is the radio app's issue - not Wondermoto's!
    .
  9. Hide/unhide function: This function will "hide" a folder call "Personal" in the root directory of your SD card (If folder does not already exist then function will create it). This means that the folder (and its contents) will no longer be seen in File Manager until you "Unhide" it. It does this by renaming the folder to .personal so not displayed. Be aware that it will still be displayed in Window's explorer if your phone is connected to a PC. Also not password protected so if anyone steals your phone and unhides it then they will see everything.
    .
  10. The backup and restore function, backs up and restores the following

    - contacts
    - SMS and MMS msgs sent, received, drafts & garbage.
    - recent calls made and received.
    - time settings.
    - settings of all styles of stamps (?)
    - back up of all camera and video folders
    - network configurations.
    - all changes made to phone's default settings.
    - Bluetooth settings
    - mailbox message settings
    - folder settings
    - browser settings.
    - arrangement of menus on the desktop
    - backlight settings
    - home screen settings
    - access to files (ie Open with settings).
It took more than four hours for me to translate this mammoth program so please click on the thank you button if you appreciate it.

link for program with spanish voice:

(can't upload on motofans cause filesize is larger than 10mb)

The lighter version is attached here.

Edit by Moderator (April 4th):

Thanks to Amit this very useful app has been translated into English. The WonderMoto.lin file attached below adds to his work by correcting a couple of errors in the translations as well as tidying up many of the menus to make them easier to read. (The WonderMoto.lin file contains all of the displayed text). To use it:

1. Install WonderMoto2 app as usual
2. Download the file WonderMoto.lin.zip and rename to remove zip part so called WonderMoto.lin.
3. Replace the WonderMoto.lin file in the folder .system\QtDownload\WonderMoto2 on your SD card with this version
4. Restart phone
.

I'm posting this again due to server rollback.


...sob... I lost all my 'Thank You's.....sob.... Please be kind enough to thank again


Anyway, kiwiguy, feel free to edit this thread because I can't remember all that you had written earlier.

Edit by kwiguy: I know how you feel amitn18!! I lost about 4 hours work that I had made to the stickies last week!. Luckily with this thread, I had saved off all of my changes that I made to Post #1 to a file - so was easy to restore. But thanks for finding this great app in the first place - I spent the weekend playing with the colors and fonts on my phone!! Very addictive!

I succesfully made the application work but the link on the main menu is not working. I have to run the application by entering the trans flash system menu. How do I make the shortcut run?

What fw are you on motohautz? I am on 53P and SmartAsst installed MotoWonder fine. When you install it it should put a MotoWonder icon in App Manager that you use to run it. I would try to reinstall it - as does not sound it installed properly.
