Two questions:

1) if i buy premium edition could i use on both my two phones (with the same google play account)?

2) does the app support ALL notifications from 3rd party applications or only a few list?
[Android Apps and Games] dan_ru:
1) Yes

2) Prof Reminder support

any application

that can post removable notifications into status bar. You can try it before buy.
[Android Apps and Games] tapioco2000:

[Android Apps and Games] dan_ru:
Just create Profile for applications by pressing "+" button and add desired applications.

[Android Apps and Games] peter-k:
This is the only Reminder application which I got to work 100% reliably on my 4.2. I did test more than 10 of them.

Once I got the hang on to the way it's organized I found it really easy to use. The LED on my phone however stays always white, even though I set another colour in the app's settings. Not a big issue to me.

I wish it had an even smaller memory foot-print. But I am aware of course, that this must be a hilarious remark for a developper, since other apps nowadays easily use mulitiple times of the memory foot print Prof Reminder has.

Why however Android does not come with a reminder function integrated as standard is completely beyond me. That's quite ridiculous, isn't it?

Screen remains on

Hello from France, I'm a newbie here ! :o

On my old phone (HTC Desire S with android 2.35) I had the "Missed message flasher" app to remind me that I have reminders.

Well, on my actuall rooted Galaxy S4 with android 4.3, this app works randomly, from what I read that is an issue coming from Samsung's Touchwiz interface.

Therefore I just tried to install "Prof reminder", and it seems to work like a charm.

I just have to test it some more days, before to jump to the premium version, so I can take my Calendar in account.

There is just one bug I see on my S4 : when in a profile I ask the screen to go on for say 2 seconds each time the reminder chimes, in fact the screen remains on for 30 seconds, that's the the default on time I have in my system settings.

Not a big issue for me, but perhaps there is a solution ??

Anyway, thanks to the developer for this fine app !

Regards, Roland
[Android Apps and Games] dan_ru:
Thanks for support.

I just tested on Galaxy S4 i9505 Android 4.4.2 - screen notifications works well.

1) Do you use stock lockscreen?

2) Is option "Smart stay" (keeping screen on when you looking on it) enabled?
[Android Apps and Games] Rollmops67:
Thank you for the quick reply !

My Galaxy is also i9505, Android 4.3

1) Yes I use stock lockscreen with the unlocking scheme (finger movement over 9 possible points)

2) Smart stay is disabled, the other samsung stuff (air gestures and so on) too.

Just to be sure : my screen goes on on notification, but instead of going of after the 2 seconds I set in Prof Reminder, it goes of after the 30 seconds wich are set in the android system parameters.

But as said : not a big issue for me...

Greetings, Roland
[Android Apps and Games] dan_ru:
1) Is it happens always or time to times?

2) Firmware on the phone standard or modified ?

3) Please send me your settings (Menu button/Info/Send feedback/Attach settings).

4) Do you have installed other reminder applications ?
[Android Apps and Games] Rollmops67:
1) Yes, each time the screen goes on when Prof reminder asks for it

2) Standard firmware, but rooted

3) Done !

4) I had "Missed message flasher" before, but uninstalled it before installing Prof reminder.

Missed Voicemail?

Is there a way to use the external app notification to do missed voicemail notification? I downloaded the latest version and looked, but couldn't figure out a way if it is possible. If not possible, I hope it's still o the "to do" list. I really like everything else about it, but need this feature (premium only would be fine so long as I can verify it works before buying).
[Android Apps and Games] dan_ru:
Yes, it's still in to-do list.

Volume level for notifications is low

Hello !

I found a funny behaviour on a Motorola Moto E (Android 4.4.4) :

The volume of notification sound is very low.

Yes I read Q8 of the FAQ and I tried both manners to set the volume in Prof reminder (manually to 100% or to the same volume as the alarm channel), but that changed nothing.

Then I noticed that when I go in the volume settings in the phone parameters, each time when I change the volume of the ringer channel or the alarm channel, the choosen sound is at first played very low, and then becomes louder and louder. Thats also the case when the phone rings or when there is an alarm, it allways begins with a low volume level wich becomes louder.

So I did an experiment :

I choosed a long notification sound in Prof reminder, and in fact I noticed that there is the same behaviour in Prof reminder, at the beginning of the notification sound the volume is low, and when the notification sound is long enough, you can notice that it becomes loud after some seconds.

So I am stuck, because when I choose a notification sound with say 2 seconds duration in Prof reminder, it hasn't the time to become loud.

Well, a solution would be to modify my prefered notification sounds by adding about 10 seconds without any sound at the beginning of the files...

Maybe there is a manner to avoid this but I don't know how ?

Roland
[Android Apps and Games] dan_ru:
Hello.

Look like this behaviour is feature of your phone.

In some next version

s

I plan to add option to select volume channel. Maybe this options will helps you.
[Android Apps and Games] Rollmops67:
Yes, it's what I'm also thinking.

Meanwhile I indeed moded some notification tones in Audacity by adding 7 seconds of silence at the beginning, so after the seven seconds the volume has become loud.

Not a great solution, but it works !

[Android Apps and Games] dan_ru:
Usually this error happens on custom firmwares (without Google Play Services).

Firmware on the phone standard or modified ?
[Android Apps and Games] dest_pl:
i have stock firmware and stock google play Play Service
[Android Apps and Games] dan_ru:
If you are trying to buy (or restore purchase) Premium version and get "Error: 3" - this means "In application purchases unavailable".

This is not bug of Prof Reminder. Usually it's problem of environment on your device. Please try to initiate purchase in any other application.

To fix it:

1) Make sure that Google Play Services is installed on your device.

Custom firmwares and some stock firmwares for Chinese phones often do not contains it.

2) Make sure that Google Play client version is 5.0.12 or higher.

3) Make sure that your Google account is added in accounts settings. (For restoring purchase: it's important to use same account as before).

4) Make sure that Android version is 2.2 or higher.

5) Paid applications is not available for several countries.

6) Try to clear data for "Google Play" and "Google Play Services" by stock application manager.

7) If you have ROOT access and using firewall application - disable it or allow connection for "Google Play" and "Google Play Services".

8) Try later. Problem can be on Google billing servers.

9) Still have problem - read this and this

[Android Apps and Games] nick_white:
Hi,

It seems that at least on my device, the notifications do not work properly.

My device is Samsung Galaxy Trend Plus S7580, Android 4.2.2. No ROM modifications etc. Not using task killers or battery "saving" apps.

My settings are (just for testing):

- Notification icon always on

- Limits: None

- Sound: Beep once

- Delay: 5s

- Duration: 24h

- Interval: 10s

- Dismiss when unlock screen

I receive a call / message with the screen locked. I don't do anything to the phone.

After 5 seconds, I get the first beep. (OK)

After 10 seconds, another beep. (OK)

After 10 seconds, another beep. (OK)

After that, It doesn't do anything until I press the power button.

After I press the power button and the screen turns on (but I don't unlock it because that would dismiss the notification), it beeps multiple times (usually, two times), then waits 10 seconds until the next beep and so on until the screen turns off.

After the screen turns off, it works for another two 10 second rounds, then it stops working until the screen is on again (cycle repeats).

I also observed another behavior: sometimes it stops working with the screen off, but for a moment, I hear 1-2 beeps, then long silence again.

So it looks like it's related to sleep / CPU or something when the screen is off.

Is it because of AlarmManager.RTC instead of AlarmManager.RTC_WAKEUP or something related?

Thanks.

[Android Apps and Games] nick_white:
I noticed two things in the latest version.

I will compare Prof Reminder with Alarm Clock Xtreme and Disable Increasing Ring because all three have running services and Android treats them the same afaik.

It is important to mention that my device is low RAM (717 MB).

The memory footprint increased - the service doesn't drop below 3.8 MB. If I remember correctly, in the previous versions, it varied between 1 and 5 MB. The other services vary too. 4 MB doesn't sound much, but I think it might influence the other problem.

If another aplication uses a lot of memory (maybe even causing it to crash), Android "kills" all three services, and afterwards the services are restarted, but not Prof.

For example, I start Firefox, load many pages, including large map images in multiple tabs and switch between them. At a moment, it just runs out of memory and crashes. It used a lot of memory because even my launcher is restarted. Then I go to Settings -> Application Manager -> Running. I see the other two services "Restarting...", but Prof is gone.
[Android Apps and Games] dan_ru:
Yes, Android can stop any application in any time. On receiving message (and on call) Prof Reminder service will start again.

If notifications stops in random time or if you have profile for applications - try to set "Menu/Settings/Icon in status bar" to "Show icon when service is running". It should help.

And, do not measure memory using right after opening-closing Prof Reminder setting. Wait some time (maybe 1 hour) and you will see lesser values.

Hey, thanks for this great app! I upgraded to Pro, just because it is so useful, and the Dev supports us so well!

One feature that would be great is the ability to save/restore the profiles to SD.

I have to do a Factory Reset every time I upgrade Android on my Nexus 4 (don't ask), so it is a pain to recreate the profiles that I worked so hard to get right.

For now, I'm sending myself an email with all the settings from Menu->Info->Send Feedback, but there has to be an easier way.

LED works in "test" but not for real

I've set up LED notification (Yellow) in a profile (my only profile) and when I do "test" it works as expected (as soon as I turn off the display). However, when call my phone from another phone (and then hang up) I don't get the Yellow LED indicator (even after the display has turned itself off). I do get the standard Android flashing Blue LED indicator. So I turned off standard LED notifications (in the Android Settings app under "LED indicator") but now I get no LED indicator (neither Yellow nor Blue).

Any suggestions?

Thanks.

[Android Apps and Games] nmishkin:
I'd meant to mention that I'd tried the two LED controlling methods and neither worked. Is that what you were suggesting or did you really mean "flash controlling method"?
[Android Apps and Games] dan_ru:
Of course not "flash" - sorry for typo.

This is known problem for several phones. Currently there are no 100% working solution.

Let me explain:

Unfortunately Android applications can't control LED directly, applications only can set request to system with desired color and frequency.

Everything works fine when only one application set such request (You can check it by testing profile - long press on profile, item ‘Try’).

But when several applications set request at same time - it can become a problem.

Most of devices will use color from last request, but several phones - from first request.

This is why you can see LED color from stock application.

PS: I'm trying to find workaround for this problem ...

Hello,

I installed your app on a Wiko Pulp 4G with Android 5.1.1.

The response times of the reminders are extremely delayed. For example:

When i set the delay to 5 seconds and the interval to 5 seconds the following happens:

The first reminder appears after about 2 minutes 30 seconds.

The second reminder appears after about 12 minutes.

The third reminder appears after another 12 minutes.

What settings can I try to make it work reliably?
