Re: New Beta

Minor point - can you make the text position better vertically? I use 16 pixel high icons and it sits a little low.

As for the text, I'd go for "Mode x in hh:mm" as a countdown rather than "...at hh:mm"... or you could always make it an option(!!!!).

I'm not sure how these now work. I am usually in Mode 4 (Phone on, normal volumes) - I want it to switch to Mode 2 (Phone on, Silent) for appointments with category of "Do Not Disturb", but switch to Mode 1 (Phone off, normal volumes) for appointments with category of "Phone Off".

I can't seem to configure this correctly, how should it be set up?

Also, since I now will be switching back and forth between phone off/on, has anyone tried the notifications events beep with a phone PIN yet? I'd really love to know if it's just my device. Alternatively, you could implement the Notifs Settings on/off checkbox to permit people to control notifications indepentantly of PZP (e.g. via Pocket Plus).

Thanks Avalon-99, much easier to work with these icons
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] Avalon-99:
Great!

outlook switch works fine.

timesettings switch works fine.

Tap&hold switch works fine.

I see always the right timeicons, when outlook switch or typ&hold switch works and I can display the end time of a duration.

Excellent!

Could you give me a practical example, why you furnished Outlooksettings for each mode?

If I want to change during a meeting to silent, I would like to do that in each mode.

Now I must set the same Settings 5 times.

I thought you would add the ability to switch modes based on multiple status and/or categories.

I think that outlooksettinges would have to work separately from timesettings, like shown on this picture.

Zendrui, you did a great work :D
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] zendrui:
Re: New Beta

Avalon thanks for you icons :)

Well yes why not, but displayed where ?

Even if you set a tap&hold you have to be able to abort it or to switch manually ...

Yes I will center the text.

And yes I set "Modex to Modex at" but maybe a countdown is better ...

Well for now this is not possible to set :

switch to mode2 when category is business and

switch to mode3 when category is hollidays

But for example, you can decide that you want to automatically switch to mode2 when you have an outlook and when you are in mode4. so you configure outlook settings for mode4. But you can also decide that, for ther same outlook appt you don't want to switch to mode2 when you are in mode5. So you don't set outlook settings for mode5.

But basically you can set thesame outlook settings for all the mode if you want that, whatever the mode currently selected, it switchs to a mode when an appt happens.

Well simply you can decide that when you are in mode4 and when an outlook appt happen you want to switch to a mode. But that when you are in mode5 if the same appt happen it doesn't switch ...

Yes basically I think this will be the most used. The same settings for all the modes

For the version 6 ? ;)
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] Avalon-99:
I found one bug:

MDA is on Mode2

All 5 Outlooksettings are: Switch to Mode3 when Category is meeting.

When PZP switches with Outlook to Mode3, timeicon changes to outlook_running.bmp

After outlookswitch ends PZP switches to Mode1 (not back to Mode2) and Timeicon stays on outlook_running.bmp.

After 1 Minute Timeicon changes to automatic_enabled.bmp

If only outlooksettings for Mode2 are configured PZP switches to Mode2!!!

And when I go during Outlookswitch to Start - Settings, sometimes all Icons are blocked, I couldn't start any settingsprogramm under Settings, till I make a softreset.

Re: New Beta

Well yes why not, but displayed where ?

Even if you set a tap&hold you have to be able to abort it or to switch manually ...

I was considering a count down timer right on or under the icon so it does not take up any space, could be just minutes or mins/secs 14:30. Not really that important just eliminates the need for a tap and hold.

With respect to switching, time\tap&hold switches work great but the outlook switch only switches to not back:

ie.

in mode5

switch mode2 for business meeting for 5mins then should be back to 5

but stays in mode2 but the icon has gone back to all switches active
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] daveaus:
Is it possible to lock the Profile? My problem is I keep accidently changing the profile.

A ideal solution for me would be to have a folder in settings or something similar and then when you go into the folder it shows all the different profiles and you can change it from there.

That way I could remove the icons from the today page where they are prone to accidently being pressed. I guess another solution would be a option to require a click and hold or a double click to change the profile.

Thanks for a great product.

Re: New Beta

I think Avalon-99 and I are coming from the same direction here. I'm afraid that I thought the single set of Outlook settings for all modes made more sense than one per mode, but with multiple choices possible - switching to different modes based on different statuses/categories.

Ah well, roll on version 6?
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] zendrui:
And we continue with a beta 8 including

- time format (yy/mm/dd ...) corrected

- text in temu menu centered whatever the icon size

- problem of mode back, when the same outlook settings are set, corrected

I aggree with you that a outlook switch with multiple choices possible per mode is a better choice but I definitively want to fix a version to release it (mainly for the notification repeat option, a switch process that works totally ...)

Add a multiple choice per mode will be added in my to-do list for a next release ;)
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] zendrui:

Please look into compatibilty with Imate 1.72 + Arabization

Hello Zen,

I really appreciate the quality of your work and the the person behind it. I hope you will not deprive us the users of imate+arabization enabled from using your product.

I have been trying to make pocketzenphone beta 5 release 7 work with my imate rom 1.72 with arabization enabled and it just doesn't work. It seems it can't save any new choices made. When i disable arabization sypport from settings menu, everything works fine again.

Please try to solve this issue because there are a lot of users of imates in the region who require arabic support to be enabled and just can't give up on using pocketzenphone.

Cheers

Keep up the great work :)

Re: Please look into compatibilty with Imate 1.72 + Arabizat

I noticed something similar, but mine is a typical English language Asia ROM O2 Xda II. I imported all my previous settings but noticed the phone was on in all modes, I turn it off in the settings but it won't retain the off state, switch to another mode and back - it's back on! Will try in 5B8
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] :
Hello again Zen,

Thanks for your kind reply. Here is the procedure for installing the imate from and arabic customization package. I'm not sure if you can install the imate arabic customization package on non-imate roms.

After you install the arabic customization you can enable or disable it by entering into settings, system, arabic, arabic settings, then check or uncheck "disable arabizer".

The main problem with pocketzenphone (most versions i tried) is that when arabizer is enabled you can't save changes to the settings you make and some problems with each setting performing based on the existing settings of pocketzenphone.

Here are the instructions, as they appear on www.clubimate.com support page.

Step 1:

Download the ROM upgrade file to your desktop PC. This file is approximately 25Mb in size. Click here for ftp download, or click here for html download of RUU172126WWE_imate.exe. With your i-mate™ Pocket PC synchronized run RUU172126WWE_imate.exe on your PC. Follow the on-screen instructions. After all the 5 steps of the upgrade you will get a Congratulations! screen. Disconnect your Pocket PC and hard reset it. Perform the initial setup and then reconnect the device to the desktop via ActiveSync.

Step 2:

Download the Ext. ROM upgrade file to your desktop PC. Please note that the second step involves the language customization and other features and fixes for the Extended ROM. Hence it is recommended that you perform both the steps of the upgrade. There are two language options available: Click here English version i.e. RUU172800WWE_CDL_SKU1.exe. Click here to download the English version with Arabic Support i.e. RUU172810WWE_CDL_SKU2.exe.The file is approximately 6Mb in size. With your i-mate™ Pocket PC synchronized unzip and run the downloaded upgrade file. Follow the on-screen instructions. On completion of the upgrade, you will get a Congratulations! screen. Disconnect your Pocket PC and hard reset it. Perform the initial setup and then reconnect the device to the desktop via ActiveSync.

If you need membership access to enter clubimate, i'll be glad to provided you with my login.

Re: Please look into compatibilty with Imate 1.72 + Arabizat

PZP 5.0B8 still has this problem. When I look in the exported Mode file I see "<Radio State not found>". If I edit the file to "<Radio State : 0>" and import, it makes no difference.

I really love the new time icons, but as Iggy is, I am EXTREMELY color deficient and I cannot tell the difference between the two Outlook icons. Would it be possible to choose radically different colors for them? Those of us who are "color blind" will appreciate it very much!
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] zendrui:
Re: Please look into compatibilty with Imate 1.72 + Arabizat

Apart the export/import you mean that in the settings page if you set "radio off" for a mode, save, then change to another mode and come back the "radio off" was not saved ?
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] :
Follow-up on the Imate + Arabization issue with Beta 5/8

Hi Zen,

Just to confirm that problem also applies to Beta 5/8. There is no way that u can save any ammendment to any setting. It shows blank screen in the field where the change was made.

In ring type, for example, when u try to change from ring to ring and vibrate the field goes blank; the rington filed accepts a different ringtone but in fact the change does not take effect and the phone won't ring at all.

When you try to restore the settings manually to their orignal state nothing happens. Only when you reset the settings by pressing the reset button you can restore the working condiiton of the original settings.

I think it may have something to do with the modification the arabization makes to the extended rom.

Users, please share your thoughts if you have a similar problem on devices that have other languages localized on the device through an ammended extended rom.

Zen, I really hope you can find a way out to this issue.

Thank you in advance.

Hawk.

Re: Please look into compatibilty with Imate 1.72 + Arabizat

Hi Zen, I can confirm this, setting a mode to radio off then exit and come back to settings radio is set back on.

Another very strange effect,

In mode5

outlook appt switch to mode2 then should switch back to mode5

after outlook I end up in mode1????

Sorry forgot one thing, the yy/mm/dd does not work with outlook switch.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] JaToAc:
had a hard time with importing the settings. didn't work very well so i set everything manually. now it works. set mode 1 to radio off and it switches off and then on again when choosing a mode with radio on. if radio is off and i enter the settings and then leaving the settings radio stays off. so i don't understand this radio problems... maybe i didn't understand it correctly but it works for me. switching works, but i didn't had the time to test outlook switching...

Hi Zen, good news. You were right I did not do a clean install.

Uninstalled, remove directory from program files and removed registry keys.

Now everything works including outlook switching, even after changing date format in regional settings.

Their was still a problem with the saving of a Radio Off setting but I got around this by overwriting the new MODE3(my radio off setting) with my backup and then it reimported correctly.

Very odd, after install I tried to set the Radio Off but it kept flipping back to Radio On. Checked the Mode.txt and found

<Radio State not found> but my backup had <Radion State: 0>.

This is the same for all modes after initial settings. Manually changed to look the same has my backup but it would not import the radio off state. Import only worked when I replace the new with the backup.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] zendrui:
Ok if it comes for an install or bad uninstall of a previous version, I prefer.

Beta 9

Iggy you're a too cool testor.

Thank to the picture you posted Iggy I found why the radio was not saved :D

The differences was that you disabled the ring tone ... there was a bug when it was like that ...

So I corrected that, corrected a little bug when the switch icon was to "outlook only".

And I change the default icons for the switch icon and the settings (thank for to those who posted the original)

So to use this one I invite you to unsintall the previous, soft reset then install the new one ...

Did someone use the Beta8 or upper with ringtoneX or software like ? Does it works ?

Hello Zen: Imate+arabization follow-up...

Hello Zen

I;m not sure if you can install the imate arabization extended rom on top of your qtek 2020 rom. I'll check with clubimate. If it's worth the while for you maybe you can back up your qtek configuration and live with the imate rom+arabization installed for a while. Bare in mind that arabization does not change the user interface into arabic, everything remains the same in english. it just enables you to read arabic text in IE and word so nothing will change for you and as i mentioned you can disable it if you like from settings.

Zen, I don;t know if you will opt to go for the imate rom on your qtek to make the testing but if you decide not to do it, let me try to help u by describing what;s happening and you will try to patch the code as needed. I don't know if it;s possible but i;ll do anything to keep pocketzenphone.

Just a reminder: The main problem with pocketzenphone when arabization is anabled is it does not save a new settings you make. Maybe you can figure it out concentrating on this problem. If you need me to copy any files, registry settings etc. and email them to you or post them here let me know.

There's a whole bunch of imate users who will save a prayer for you if you decide to solve this problem.

Thanks Zen. :)

5b9 working perfectly on mine.

The outlook switch works well too but it does not work for recurrences started from a past day. I created a recurrence, according to which an appt (acctualy the class time for my French laguage study :D ) occurs every Mon, Wed and Fri, 5PM-6.30PM. The occurence started from a day in the past. I set the PZP outlook switch so that my phone turned off (change mode) during the class time. It works but every time after upgrading PZP I have to change the start day of the recurrence to the current day, otherwise PZP will not switch my phone off (mode not changed)

Hope that I explained clearly enough and wish that Zen will spend sometime to look into it.

Yes it is clear I think I understand.

For the outlook switch when you tap&hold I look for appts with a start date >= to the current date.

For a reccurent appt maybe the start date is only the date of the first occurence and so this why the other occurrences are not selected ?

Will try that ...

But if I remember well someone told me that if you disabled arabization, you can configure/Save.. PZP settings normally.

Once done, just re-enable arabization then you can use PZP normally.

Hey Zen, the workaround trick works

Hello Zen

Thanks for the tip. You are a great guy, u always manahg to squeeze the extra juice from an orange. Here is the scenario: when i make changes to pocketzenphone while arabization is disabled the changes are saved then i can enable arabization and the changes will still be there.\ but everytime i disable or enable arabization i have to reset the device so making any change to pocketzenphone becomes a real hassle.

Anyway, at least i can live with this for a while.. what do u think the problem is? what is your best guess as to way you can not save changes when arabization is enabled? maybe it;s something u can fix easily..

Anyway, I hope u'll not forget about this issue. (i have ringtonex and it seems to work well with pocketzenphone)
