2 Problems.

Hi Zendrui.

Are you aware of any problems?.......

I have just upgraded to 5.52 and have discovered the following problems....

The tap and hold function switch does not operate, the clock goes past the time where is should switch back the the original profile. I have tried it quite a few times and cant get it to work.

I installed the tool bar software (the icon which is at the bottom right of the screen) then I uninstalled it, but after a soft reset all the PZP software has been removed.

Re: cant install cab file of tools + NEW BUG

Well I turn off headset connection too (in all cases is BT is off hedaset is no more coonected to the PPC anymore)

But I guess this is the same to reconnect it to your PC you have to wake it up ...

Hum I will checl because I don't understand what could happen

For the tap&hold I know I will look that after the hollidays ;)

For the PZPTray I know I guess this is because when you unsitall PZPTray it removes the registry key for the Today plugin

Simply resintall the today plugin and all will be ok.

I didn't find another solutiuon actually but I will modify that to avoid this problem ;)

Hello again,

My previous problems with PZP and ringtones are now fixed.

However more problems arised, and these seem not to be directly related to PZP but to WM5 (at least with my Qtek 9100).

When I change the default ringtone directory \Windows\ to something else everything in the 9100 relating sounds seem to go mad! PZP won't load anymore, I get stuck on the Start->Settings->Phone menu, since it finds the default ringtones but can't play them...

Just now a new string value appeared in registry in HKCU\ControlPanel\SoundCategories\Ring\ with the name DirectoryPX...this does not come by default and I wonder which application created it.

But, we'll have time to discuss this and find what did Microsoft do wrong this time :-)

Everybody...have a great year!!!

Cheers,

Francisco Teixeira

Happy New Year 2006 and thanks for your great program!
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] macrinus:
Yes, I also confirm that since I quit PZP and that string value did get created after a while. THe strangest thing about it is the fact that it doesn't exist by default and once it appears the other string value Directory gets reset.

What I've tried now was setting both Directory and DirectoryPX to \Windows\ to see if either one gets reset.

How do I export my settings?

I created a new profile today and want to export it like I did with my other profiles. I cannot for the life of me find this option any more. Using 5.5.2 :?:
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] harleyxlc:
Just save and the text file will be there. No need to export.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] zendrui:
Ok let me know I'm curious to know what creates that

Yes thanks for the answer

To backup your modes simply copy the PocketZenModeX.txt you can find in the PZP folder in another folder (SD card for example)

And if one day you want to restore them you will copy these files un the PZP folder back Wink
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] pyro:
First, have a happy new year to all !

@macrinus, zendrui

I guess that PhotoContacts Pro 4 creates this registry key.

I use it and maybe in conjunction with this app my problems with PZP come from. Maybe zendrui can check this out...

Bye, Pyro
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] zendrui:
I will see if I can install it and see what happens
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] macrinus:
Hello,

Exactly pyro...Photo Contacts PRO 4 created that registry key. I used another application to change the registry from hive mode to file and the Directory and DirectoryPX haven't been reset so far...

Will update if any changes happen.

PZP & Photocontact pro 4.0

Hi,

as you talk about PZP & PCP4.0, I observed since a fex days that my phone sometimes "sof-reset" himself. Sometimes qhen it restarts, I need to enter the PIN code but sometimes not.

To users of 9100 (who are using PZP and Photocontact 4), could you tell me if you have the same problem ?

I precise that everything works fine for both programs except this.

Thanks for answer :idea:
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] macrinus:
Re: PZP & Photocontact pro 4.0

Sometimes that does happen with my Qtek 9100...but I'd say that's another of the many WM5 issues, along with files which are deleted previously to a SoftReset appearing like magic, etc.

About the string values Directory and DirectoryPX I can now confirm the following:

- they do get reset only when Photo Contacts PRO is running, other PCP4.0 users should contact the company to see if a cure to this issue is made available asap.

- the first phone call resets the Directory string value

- after receiving a second phone call the DirectoryPX gets reset

One thing is for certain, this issue is not PZP's fault but it does alter it's behaviour. I can't even assign a ringtone in Settings->Phone since no default directory exists and therefore WM5 cannot find any ringtones (it lists them but when I try to play them an error occurs).
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] Owl:
"Increasing ring + vibrate" does not vibrate on my

When I set my profile to 'inrease ring + vibrate' the increasing ring sound works, but not the vibration part.

However, if I use e.g. 'vibrate then ring', vibration works.

Would be great to have this fully available, as it is (imho) most useful.

Other question: is there a roadmap of PocketZen? - When could change profile based on network cell be available?

Thanks Zen - you're doing a great job!

[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] zendrui:
Re: "Increasing ring + vibrate" does not vibrate o

I will check this ringtone. This worked on WM2003 but I didn't check on WM5.0

Actually I'm all rewritting PZP to simply it and improves it.

Because 5.52 is not enought stable.

There is still some trouble on some devices and WM5.0 changed a lot of things.

So the next version will probably not add feature but design will change to make PZP more ergonomic...

So for the next version I'm focused on have PZP working whatever the device/OS/settings...

But after that I will continue to add feature and discuss with all of you what are the most important features to add ...
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] burnout:
Hi everybody,

I confirm that the soft resets a made by PZP + Photocontact pro4 !

I tried 2 days without PZP and everything's fine (no soft-resets).

Before, I had only PZP and no problems !

So I think it's the combination of 2.

Zendrui, could you SVP take a look at that ?? I like PZP and hope I'll can use it soon but the call filter of Photocontact is very important for me.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] macrinus:
I'm pretty sure that not PZP's fault...the fact that PCP4 resets the string values where the default directory for ringtones is specified is the culprit. Try the following to see if it happens to you to:

- go into Settings->Phone, check the ringtones, can you play them? Can you leave that window pressing the upper-right OK button?

I have already contacted PCP4 company regarding this issue and receiveing a response stating this "to be normal"...I need to find other unsatisfied users of that software or stop using PZP and stop configuring Ringtones and Notifications via Settings->Phone or Settings->Sounds & Notifications...

Cheers.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] argon:
After using PZP for a couple of days I've found a small, but irritating bug. I have an XDAIIi running 2003SE, with Zen Tools and Zen Today installed. It works perfectly just as I expected except for one occurance I have found.

When the calendar is running, in the background or foreground and I try to change modes or open the preferences the whole system crashes and I have to soft-reset to get my Xda operational again. If I close the calendar by stopping it under Memory settings PZP goes back to working perfectly, I hope this can be fixed, I noticed in the changelog "Calendar freeze modification" but it still occurs on my Xda :(

Other than that, thanks Zendrui, PZP is a godsend, before I got my Xda my previous phones' profile system never quite did what I needed but PZP is perfect and does even more on top of that

argon
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] zendrui:
Thank for the info. I didn't have time to try it myself but I will and will let you know.

I knwo that problem. I tried many ways to correct the freeze problem.

And I thought the solution I added was enough. But seems not.

I think I know how to solves this I think.

The bets would be that you email me at zendrui@free.fr.

I could send you a version corrected for test as I don't have the problem on my PPC. If it works on your device I will update the 5.52

Could you do that please ? thank you.

automatic pickup works only with wired headset. this was the case with WM2003 so I think this is the same with WM5.0.

Microsoft limitation sorry
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] argon:
I hate to be the bearer of bad news again, but I have found another problem, With PZPToday the screen-orientation button on the bottom right disappears, when I remove PZPToday it reappears. It doesn't disappear with just PZPTray installed so it's likely to be a problem with PZPToday? I never use the Screen Orientation button personally, but a bug's a bug right?

argon
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] zendrui:

[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] paperboy:
Scree Icon

Zendrui,

I reported this bug about a month ago; argon is not specific, but it always happens to me after a soft reset. The feeling at the time was that it was due to Today items all trying to load at once.

I have a failsafe workround, though: If you uncheck PZP from the Today>Items list, then do a soft reset, you get the screen orientation icon back. Then you just need to check PZP again in the list, and you get both.

Yes, it is a bug, but one I have learned to live with! I have seen Today plugins that have a customizable delay before they start, so as to avoid this problem. It may be worth building in a small delay before PZPToday starts to sort it?

I have been using PZP for about two months now, and now that the calendar freeze issue has been sorted, I find it very stable. I would rather live with this bug than not use PZP, but if you can sort it, all the better!

:D

Settings Problem

Hi,

I'm using a Wizard and, after installing PzP, I can switch profiles but I cannot change settings. Taping on the settings icon from within PzP today does nothing and neither does going through the "Today" manager, selecting PzP from the list of plugins and then choosing options.

My Wizard is an O2 XDA Mini s with ROM 1.5.4.2.

Cheers,

Bassey
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] zendrui:
Re: Scree Icon

Thanks for the tip. As I'm rewritting PZP I will try to find why this happens and correct. But normally PZP will be less less big than the 5.52 so it should be better

Did you isntall the Tools ?

PocketZenPhoneToday_X_X.arm.CAB if you want to use the Today Plugin version

PocketZenPhoneTray_X_X.arm.CAB if you want to use the tray version

PocketZenPhoneTools_X_X.arm.CAB needed and common for PZPToday and PZPTray (this by selecting the language you want in the sub-folder corresponding)
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] gmerin:
Doesn't happen on my s110 either. If it did, I wouldn't consider it a "bug" :wink:

for me, that icon is pain! three extra presses to get my screen back to normal everytime I accidentally press it. how about we swap the disappearing BT icon for the orientation icon? at least I can use the BT icon.

changing profiles

Hi Zendrui,

I have PZP Tools and PZP Tray installed alongside WA Desktop (a plugin for Wisbar Advance 2). Everything works beautifully, I just have a question which I hope you can help me with.

WA Desktop replaces the default Today screen and as such you can't access the System Tray. I know the Today plugin would allow you to do this but I dont want to use that if I can help it.

What I really wanted to know was if there is a way to create shortcuts to individual profiles? Basically, providing the same functionality as the PZP Tray menu/Today plug-in but on an individual profile-per-profile basis. This would allow me to set-up my own custom shortcuts to the 3 profiles that I use. Is this possible?

Excellent program BTW. Definitely exceeded my expectations...
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] zendrui:
Re: changing profiles

Of course this is possible ;) With PZPTray you can create shortcuts with the mode number as parameter to set it automatically

See http://www.pocketzenphone.net/PZPTrayCmdLine.htm

there are examples to do that
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] mzaslam:
Re: changing profiles

Oh my bad :oops: I dont know how I missed that and how could I possibly even think that a program as flexible and good as yours would not have this capability!!!

Switches

Hi Zendrui!

First of all, thank you for making a great PPC product. You make the life of a lot of PPC\Phone users a lot easier, and I am one of them. A happy customer!

I would like to report 2 things. Probably you know these issues already, but I just wanted to make sure. The first thing is that the programmed switches are not working on my device. I've set it to change automatically to Office profile at 08:00h. and back to Home profile at 17:30h. but that doesn't work (you set this switch ín the Home profile, right?). The second thing is that the Tap&Hold switch is not working in the sense that it doesn't change back to the original profile after the indicated time.

That's it for now. Thanks and keep up the good work!
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] zendrui:
Re: Switches

Hum strange normally switches should work as expected. Maybe you could sned me your modes I willc heck them ?

This one I know yes. I'm working on the next version to make PZP working smoothly on all devices ;)
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] StuartC:
Maybe this has been mentioned before but I can't go through 200+ pages in this thread to find out. Can the thread be searched on it's own or broken out somehow?

Anyway, when selecting a mode with the volume down at the mute level I'd like to see the indicator on the title bar change to the crossed out speaker, if selecting a mode with no sound but vibrate I'd like the indicator to change to the vibrating pda.

Is this possible or is it just not working on my i-mate PDA2K?
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] zendrui:
No actually this option doesn't exist in PZP. On WM5.0 devices seems that if you set system volume and phone volume to 0 it sets the speaker icon to off but this is not done by PZP.

I have this option in my to-do list

Hi Zendrui,

[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] zendrui:
As far as I know the only problem on HP device sis that the backlight function does not work but the rest should be ok.

Do you sue th etoday plugin or the Tray ? If you go to the PZP folder and click on PocketZenPhoneSettings.exe dies the setting open ?

hello Zen,

i finally decided to go ahead and buy pocketzenphone. i haven't done a lot of testing yet. but i have some questions (Q) and comments (C). i use HTC Wizard.

(Q) what is the least number of cabs required for the program to function? do i have to install all three?

(C) when switching from one profile to the next (in settings) i have to save the profile even if i don't change anything.

(Q) can you add 'ring once then vibrate' like the Nokias? i'd really appreciate it.

(C) the menu that pops up from the tray icon doesn't respond to clicks in the first second (approximation) after it pops up. i have to wait before i tap my choice for it to respond normally.

(Q) what does 'misc.' do?

(Q) is it possible for me to auto-trigger to school profile at 10am on mondays, wednesdays and fridays, and at 1pm tuesdays, and thursdays? one way around this is to create another profile with the same settings except the times, but that's not very effective

thanks a lot,
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] zendrui:
No you have to install at least PZPToday or PZPTray (or both if you want)

And you must install one PZPSettings (the language you want)

Normally you should have to save only if you changed or did something ..?

I don't know if it si possible. All the comniation are not allowed with windowsCE... I can try to chekc if this one would be possible but as far as I know at the beginning users and I tried allt he combination we think of and added them in PZP

Yeah I knwo this is a problem on WM5.0 devices. I'm currently working on the next version to make PZP faster

Well you can run a program when you set a mdoe, or play a sound or call a number or chnage the screen orientation.

Actually not with this version, but in the next yes ;)

Re: Version 6.0

thank u. i'm looking forward to it.

btw, on the palm OS platform, there is a program similar to pocketzenphone. one feature i liked in that program was that for some profiles, it gave you the option to display a prompt message that lasted for X amount of milliseconds every time you turn your screen on. the benefit of the feature is that it's reassuring. so maybe i can enable this feature for the school profile which is switched automatically, and then when i'm in the middle of a class i can pull the device out and turn the screen on and have a little msgbox that says "School" and date and time maybe, for a few seconds then disappears or disappear with a button click or something.

the feature isn't a killer or anything, but i just thought i'd let you know.
