tBattery Graphical Analyzer app for Windows Mobile

It is a web application for visualizing the log output from tBattery. Currently, it displays the battery life percentage over time and not much more (at the moment). It relies on JavaScript (jQuery & jqplot) for displaying the graph, so you might want to activate it.

Current limitations

• Displays only life percentage and the time passed
• You cannot download the graph, screenshot is the only way to save
• There can be quiet weird values for the x-axis, like 1020 minutes. I’ll fix that

Planned features

• Display date/time on mouse cursor position in graph
• Choosing the value(s) you want to display
• Anonymous storage of logs and graphs for later reference
• User registration for storing logs and allowing comparisons between devices/ROMs etc
• Simple download of graphs as images

Battle.net authenticator app for Windows Mobile

WinAuth is an open-source Windows version of the Battle.net Authenticator, similar to the Mobile Authenticators for iPhone and Android that are used to secure World of Warcraft and Starcraft accounts.

WinAuth uses the same algorithm as the Mobile Authenticator for Android, and so generates the same codes when using the same serial number and secret key. One of the reasons to write it was to remove the dependency on having the phone available, but still use the same codes. However, to you must be able to extract the key from the phone to be able to run it as a duplicate. You can only run winauth as a backup to a rooted (hacked) Android phone, as you need to be able to read the Mobile Authenticator’s private keys. You cannot read the private keys from non-rooted Android phones nor from iPhones.

Features:

• Register a new Authenticator for US or EU
• Load/save/create multiple authenticators, saved with encryption
• Load copy of your Android Mobile Authenticator
• Displays code as bitmap making it harder to be read by malicious apps
• Auto/manual time-sync with Battle.net servers
• Auto-refresh code showing code’s valid duration or manual operation by pressing button
• Always on top option
• Optional auto “copy to clipboard” on code generation
• Show/hide serial number
• Auto type directly into code field on hitting a single system-wide hotkey
• Send backups of authenticator data to your email
