AutoLight was developed for HTC Topaz (Diamond 2) with WM6.1 and it critically depends on HTCSensorSDK.dll, HTCUtil.dll and on a 10 levels backlight starting from value 1. It has been reported to work with WM6.5 and on Rhodium (Touch Pro 2) and it might works on some other HTC phone and it will most likely not work on non-HTC phones. AutoLight is a native application with a very low memory usage. On the other hand the Configurator requires Compact Framework 2 but it should be closed after the use. The Configurator is designed for WVGA screens.

Install

Run AutoLight.cab and install in main memory (not in storage card), run AutoLight.Config.cab and install where you like, then softreset (this should also disable the native auto adjust backlight function, check for that in the Control Panel Power applet).
If you have previously installed autolight V2.x and want only upgrade to V2.3 without having your configuration reset to default use the Configurator to stop AutoLight. After that overwrite AutoLight.exe, ChangeLight.exe and AutoLightConfig.exe with the files you find inside AutoLight.zip and softreset.

Download this Application

If you are not satisfied with the levels of automatic backlight setting levels on your device then try this simple utility to manually set those limits.

With this tool you can adjust your backlight levels according to the values your light sensor measures…
You can also change the interval how often the light sensor should be accessed.

With those two features you may save some battery power.

Requirements:
Any pocketpc windows mobile with Light sensor built in.

Klaxon is an alarm clock, with added specific functionality. It supports multiple alarms with snoozing. What makes this application special though is the ability to interact with the application, through motion or light. The user has the options to shake the phone, flip it over or turn it towards light; Klaxon has integrated feature for customization of interactivity. Users are able to associate commands (snooze, turn off) to gestures while the device feeds back by default after successful command (vibrate once for Snooze mode, vibrate twice if alarm is turned off). It supports Omnia and The HTC devices.

Example: Wake up alarm at 6:00 AM > Flip over to snooze 10 minutes > Snooze alarm at 6:10 AM > Shake to turn alarm off!
