Thanks for youor response... but another example of what I mean is...

Phone on and displayed... if night you wont want it bright all the time so after a few mins dims until its touched again .... that way you can see the phone all the time but not be distracted.. hows that sound ?

A lot of the suggestions I'm comming up with come from my own CarPC project and the experince of that and others..... inlcuding front ends.

( See link on my sig )

Thanks once again for you time and keep up the good work

I can. Please install the 5.51 here www.pocketzenphone.net/PZPBeta.htm

It should help ;)

Actually you can only choose, or that your Backlight will never be turned on apart if you do it manually (whatever the backlight level you want) , or to set a timeout to turn off backlight if not touched after n mins.

With PZP you can set 7 modes so you can set one with one case another with the other case.

@tadzio: You're quite right of course! I don't mean "pair" I mean "find and communicate with"... :oops: - I'm new to this whole BT thing and the severe lack of knowledge is rather limiting me!

I meant that it would be cool to have the option to automatically connect to a GPS receiver (drop-down list of paired devices maybe - that sounds like it should be good and flexible for when things like BT nasal hair trimmers are released :D) as well as a headset.

Definitely something to go waaaay down the wishlist!

Yes, it is installed on storage card. Could problem be connected to this then?

Also noticed another funny thing: TrayIcon disapears (haven't found out yet, in which constellation this happens, but must be after programs are started and closed). If I start PocketZenPhoneTray again, the icon apears on the right hand side of the original place, where the icon was before.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] zendrui:
Hum I didn't try to install PZP on storage card so that could create some trouble. Could you try to install it in the main memory ?
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] Owl:
Yup, works fine when NOT installed on storage card, but on main memory.

When I install on storage card or extended rom, I experienced the two problems:

- Today plug in is not visible (yes, it is installed plus tray+phone tools). Tray works, but there is no today plug in - it does not apear under Settings->Today->Items.

- TrayIcon disapears (haven't found out yet, in which constellation this happens, but must be after programs are started and closed). If I start PocketZenPhoneTray again, the icon apears on the right hand side of the original place, where the icon was before.

Device: Orange M5000

ROM-Version: 1.13.52 GER

Radio-Version: 1.03.00

PZP-Version: 5.51 beta

Is a pitty, because I have all my other programs installed in extended rom or storage card to keep as much as possible 'normal' memory free.

I can second this on a Vairo.... tried on the storage card and could not find although was installed... thought it was me...

[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] tadzio:
No, not at all. :) This feature is already available: PZP can turn on Bluetooth when you change a profile (manually, timed, whatever). And once Bluetooth is on, it'll automatically find headsets and GPS devices which were paired earlier and now come into range. There is no need for any manual action.

Well, you can't "pre-select" from a drop-down list the device, so it's probably a good idea to not have more than one paired headset and one paired GPS device at the same time in range. But I think this is a very minor limitation, if any.

If you want, you can even set PZP so start your navigation software for you when you change to a specific profile (which I suspect you might want to call "Car" :) )

Cheers

[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] tadzio:
Well, my experience is that installing Today plug-ins to Storage or a Storage Card is really asking for trouble. Flash memory is much slower than RAM, so loading a Today plug-in from flash means changing the boot process timing drastically. And this is a rather sensitive area of Windows Mobile - all sorts of funny things can happen if Today plug-ins take too long to load.

So, although I am sure Zendrui will fix the issue you described (since he's a nice guy and a good programmer), I would still recommend installing all Today plug-ins to RAM - at least the DLLs and bitmaps that actually get loaded. The 100 kB or so you have to spend for this are well-spent! They buy you a lot less trouble.

Cheers

WM5 Niggle

Hi Zen

Glad to see you have kept up on development. I have just downloaded the latest beta 5.51 as I now have a new O2 XDA Exec. However, your PocketZen doesn't allow me to select all the ringtones that WM5 does. I have some mp3's in the My Documents folder on my storage card and WM5 settings lets me choose these as ringtones. Note. I have not applied any registry mod to do this, it is by design.

I have just tried moving the mp3 to the My Music folder on the storage card to see if WM5 is scanning every first level folder on the storage card, but it looks like it is just the My Documents folder.

Any chance you could add this to the next release so I can pick my mp3s.

Thanks

Daz
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] Owl:
I agree on the first part - but same effect happens, if you installed into Extended ROM (which is afaik same speed as normal memory).

So would be great, if this could be solved in a next version.

Thanks

Re: WM5 Niggle

Ok I will check this but as say Tadzio I thought that install Today Plugins on storage was risky and didn't work properly... anyway PZP must work wherever you install it ...

I bought a M3000 to correct this kind of trouble as I didn't have a native WM5.0 device. Actually I have trouble with my M3000 :( but as soon it is repaired I will fix this problem

PZP and Pb with "Notifications"

Hi Zendrui,

I'm a fan of PZP and one of the first buyer. I never complained about PZP because ... it just works fine on my Qtek 2020 2.06WWE.

With the 5.5 version i installed 3 days ago ... i noticed that the "sound" i choosed for "New text message" and "Nouveau message texte" ( SMS in fact ) is not taken into account : i just have a small default "bip".

Of course i saved all new settings : be sure i know now how to configure PZP but after a lot of tests ... i'm sorry : whatever i choose it is always the same "default bip" on a incoming SMS ... ;-(

I am thinking about reverting to 5.3 wich was very stable.

I'm really sorry to report you a bug but it is the very first problem i experienced for 1.5 year.

Any idea ?

Tks 4 all anyway and for 1.5 year of total pleasure using PZP

[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] zendrui:
Sorry no I don't think it is solved.

I need a way to detect that PZP is installed on HP as the backligh range is not 0 to 10 on HP.

I asked before the 5.5 release if someone could give me the info but no answer. Could you look in your registry this key

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\System\ModelID

And send the answer by mail ? Like this I will send you a version modified to allow you to test it on your HP ;)

Well normally if you manually dectect and pair your BT devices (GPS or Headset)

With PZP if you set a mode with Bt on select this mode and turn on your BT device you will nothing else to do
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] zendrui:
Re: PZP and Pb with "Notifications"

No problem at all. That is clear that 5.5 has some trouble :(

With 5.3 I didn't have any support. but I'm working to correct the 5.5 and make it as stable as the 5.3.

For the problem you mention if you go to sounds&notifcations in the standard settings and click on play do you hear your "sound" or a bip.

Same if you disable PZP and set manually this sound in nounds&notifcations and receive a SMS does it work ?

Feature request: Change profile based on GSM/UMTS cell

Hi Zendrui,

Hope you don't mind me placing a modification request... is something very useful:

Change profile not only by time but also by PLACE - based on GSM/UMTS-cell information.

E.g. when I reach my home, changes automatically to home profile - similar when arriving at my office.

It should therefore be possible to kind of 'record' a number of cells to a profile (add current cell).

This would be top on my wish list for Christmas, Easter or birthday... ;-)

What do you think?

All the best

Probem with PZP latest Beta

Zendrui

Great program.

Had a problem over the last couple of days which became more serious this morning.

I use the today plug-in and the tray plugins.

1. I have 7 modes set up and configured, but occasionally the settings file(s) for one or more of the modes seems to get corrupted and leaves just the Notification section showing in the settings text file(s).

2. This morning my PDA (jasjar), on start up, the pocketzenphone settings panel appeared on the screen (this never normally happens). The settings panel did not appear to contain any mode Name settings at all after cycling through all 7 modes. The detailed settings were fine, but no mode name associated with any of them. I tried to QUIT the settings screen and my PDA refused to respond. Soft reset after soft reset followed with the same result, a PDA screen frozen with PocketZenPhone settings screen refusing to budge. Eventually I tapped the RESET option on PZP settings panel. Nothing. So I soft reset the PDA again and this time my PDA loaded correctly (minus pZp Tray which did not load at all) and with the pZp today plugin showing 'all modes disabled'. Any ideas?

3. I checked the 7 mode files and 3 of them listed as only being 1K files. They are normally 2K. So I replaced these files with a backup of my earlier settings, but spotted that my 7 files are listed as modes 1 through 7, yet in the PZP folder there is a Mode0 settings file which I have never noticed before. This file only seems to contain notification settings from what I can see. Should this Mode 0 file be there?

Needless to say at the moment I am reluctant to 'enable' PZP again, as I have had a frustrating morning.

Hope you can help, or tell me where I've gone wrong.

Thanks

Missing screen rotate icon...and now another strange one...

Zendrui. hi.

I think tadzio was right about the way windows loads and interacts with plug-ins. If I disable PZP (5.51B) and then do a soft-reset, my screen rotate icon returns. I can then enable PZP and and have both the icon AND PZP. Hopefully your speed mods will help. Alternatively, I have seen some pieces of software with a customizable delay before the plug-in starts - this might be a way round the problem.

Now however, I have noticed another strange trick-I don't know how we manage it!

When I am IN a mode (lets say Office) and check the time switch settings, they have disappeared. I have checked the files in the PZP folder, and the times are in the text file, they just don't display in the settings screen. All the other modes are fine. Then the phone switches at the correct time (so it must be reading the text file ok) to Car. But then the time switch settings in Car have disappeared, and the ones in Office are back again! So,

the time switch settings in the current mode are not displaying correctly

:? (For me, anyway)

Since the phone is switching ok, it's not a problem, but its a glitch you might want to take a look at.

Oh, and I would be lost without PZP. The best £3.52 I ever spent.

EDIT***********

It seems to be one of those intermittent problems - I have just checked again and all the settings are there ok - and then checked again and they were missing. Ho Hum. Set 'em and forget 'em!

EDIT EDIT ******

Apologies, guys. The probem is between the keyboard and chair.....The time settings do seem to be screwy when you get to them the first time, but when you scroll through the time settings they are there when you get round to them the second time. Doh!

Re: Probem with PZP latest Beta

This is a problem that was in a beta but since I didn't have such feeback :(

I thought it was definitively gone :(

Anyway I'm actually chnaging the way to acess the settings to speed up PZP and also to avoid this kind of problem. So I hope that soon it will be solved. Sorry again for the trouble. The bast is to configure your mdoes then save them in another fodler and if this happen again replace the corrupted modes byt the saved ...

Definitively I think that under WM5.0 the way I use to read/write settings is not appropriated and takes too much time. this cause this sometimes I think.

I'm working hard to modify that hoping this will avoid all this problems

Hi zendrui,

I'm having problems with the 'outlook switch'. Let me tell you how:

I see several patients each day. Every appointment is categorised as "office". Normally the outlook switch works fine.

But in case one patient is missing his appointment or leaving earlier I can't switch to another mode or change the 'outlook switch' to 'all switches allowed'.

And even stranger: because PZP s freezing I do a soft reset. Than the PZP settings appear out of thin air and I'm having trouble because I can't leave the setting page anymore.

Any ideas what's going on? How do I have to stop a no longer needed 'outlook switch' without messing up PZP?

Thank you,

PZ5.5 multiple errors after T-Mobile MDAIII November Upgrade

Hi, I have upgraded my MDAIII (Nov05) to the latest ROM and installed just the basic set of software I need, including PZP 5.5. Now the automatic switching of modes does not work any more. I remember this used to be a bug in earlier versions of PZP (i think it had to do with a W2k3 bug "wakeup" or "notifications").

Strange enough, after the 2nd or 3rd time clicking into the PZP tray menu PZP also refuses to open the menu another time. When this occurs, the bluetooth manager also refuses to open.

MDAIII November Update - getting closer to the problems

Hi Zen,

coming back to my previous post (pg203). I installed Beta 5.51, nothing better. Deinstalled ALL other SW other than SBSH PocketBreeze and SBSH Pocketweather (both in trial period). used PZP tray, then deinstalled and used pzp today. settings in PZP for the office profile to be bt on on call. had a "connect" profile with bt on all the time (of course both in widcomm mode).

On days were there was no bt usage. all worked fine including the timed profile switches. when there was a lot of manual switching between the profiles (office-->connect-->night and so on) with many calls both on bt headset and manual, i hit the following erros reproducably:

* windows "bluetooth manager": cannot start any more (windows simply does not appear when clicked)

* error message "cannot start bluetooht because to little bt driver memory" (do not remember the exact wording)

* pzp frozen (no manual or automatic switching possible)

* ENTIRE MDA (!!!) frozen, even the clock does not count ahead.

after a soft reboot, everything above starts from the beginning.

I strongly assume that with the november update they changed stuff (bugfixes) in the bt api. probably now one of your previous workarounds do not work any more. hth in getting closer to the root cause.

Best
