zendrui,

I think you have a great product. I'm very glad to see you on top of it the way you are. It's very evident in this HUGE thread. Sorry I didn't post my little glithes before, I just had so little to tell you. I didn't think it would be much help.

I also posted a link to the review at The HowardForums if you want to check in to see if there are any comments that didn't get this far in the next few days.

k_kirk,

I think you are wrong...there are THOUSANDS. :) I purposely don't give the authors of software I review a copy beforehand. A good review, in my opinion, tries to show an actual first time users experience. By giving the author a look at it makes it very difficult for the reviewer to keep it in proper perspective. I have on ocasion given companies a look beforehand when it is very technical to be sure I have stated the facts properly. Otherwise I like to keep it as straighforward as possible. I think I gave it a very honest, fair, and positive report

As I said I think it is a great product, and I can understand why you would show some loyalty, and concern.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] zendrui:
Really I like your review and I have no problem with :D

Have another review for PocketZenPhone is really too cool.

As you said, and I aggree with, your review is very honest, fair, and positive report.

I thank you again for that

But as I read that sometimes you have some trouble I just wanted to know if you could tell more because if there is really a bug I don't want to let and want to correct that's all ;)
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] Paragon:
I wish I could tell you more. As I said that was why I didn't report it before. I have so little info to help you. The only thing I can say is that when I was having problems saving settings I think it was usually when I was changing something in an active profile.

I'm using a PDA2k with the two latest Bluetooth patches, but not the latest ROM. I'm still on the ROM originally shipped. I removed previous versions, and betas of PZP before installing version 5.1. I'll see what I can come up with in the next few days.

Dave
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] zendrui:
That's cool.

For the save I don't know, for the bluetooth maybe this is related to the last patchs ???

If one day you have more clues let me know ;)

[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] k_kirk:
Paragon, no worries. I think this approach is fair. Just make sure to post any updates in future to your review so people get a fair balance. I hate it when papers for example publish sensational but false news on front news in large print and then 3 days later publish apologies on the 10th page in tiny print... ;-)

New function request

I like this program very much.

Feature request:

I would like to switch the call forwarding number when switching the profile. For example. When I switch to "Office" profile, all call will be forwarded to my office phone number. And when I swith to "Home" profile, all call will be forwarded to my home number.

Is it possible to add it in the next version of PocketZenPhone? Thanks.

Hi Zen

I have a new little problem. (Vers.5.1/from 14.12.04) I switch on my device and receive an error message: the File weackzenphone.exe couldn't be found.

Is a german device and the lokalisation of this file is Programme. Not program files.

Under notify queue is the path named with program files. see the screenshot.

I hope you can understand my english and my problem.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] DeathtoToasters:
I just bought your program and must say that I really like it.

I do have a question:

On the Time Settings I am confused if it is auto set for am or pm?

It doesn't make any sense to me that at switch at xx:xx then back at xx:xx with out a am pm option.

Second do you think that you can have a quick setting so I can mute the volumes for a certain amount of time and then when that is over it will automatically switch back to the previous profile.

BUT

The method of switching the muting the sound for x time would be like the alarm dismiss or snooze time on a reminder. Just tapping a drop down menu.

Making it VERY easy to just 'snooze' the sound for a bit.

Your thoughts?

Wifi

I read over the net that wifi settings are located in the registry.

I will keep looking but could someone that have a PDA2K/XDA3/MDA3 export their registry.

Mainly this key : HKCU\controlpanel\wifi

This when wifi is on and then when wifi is off. I will check if there is difference. And if there is no difference all the registry when wifi is on then when wifi is off ?

Thank you

Today Plugin probs with WM2003SE (on MDA Compact)

Hi Zendrui,

I have been playing with my new MDA Compact for a week now, and I found that WM2003SE seems to be quite sensitive regarding Today Plug-Ins.

I installed PocketZenPhone, then moved it to the top of the screen (don't know if that makes a difference). After that, I observed the following problems:

- the "Options" button in the Today Screen Settings starts the settings program for random plug-ins, i.e. for PZP I got the PocketPlayer settings etc.

- PZP does not always appear on the Today Screen. Sometimes a blank space is where it should be, sometimes not even this is there. Rotating the screen sometimes fixes the problem. Sometimes re-ordering the plug-ins helps.

- when leaving the Today Screen Configuration and going back to the Today Screen, the Outlook plug-in briefly displays nonsense values - like -100 unread messages, or 24567298 active tasks. This corrects itself very quickly

- sometimes the Bluetooth Stack gets confused - the blue LED does not blink, but TomTom still finds my GPS mouse. Worst of all is that when I try to turn BT on/off, I get a message saying "No Bluetooth Hardware installed". This can only be fixed with a Hard Reset!

All this happens not only with PZP, but also with other plug-ins like PowerLevel III or BatMemTime. Also, the tray version of PZP causes none of these problems. However, there are other plug-ins (for example Calendar+) which work without a problem.

All this leads me to the conclusions that some plug-ins, including PZP, do something that overwrites or corrupts some internal data structures. It seems that WM2003SE requires a plug-in to follow more strict protocols than the non-SE Windows. Maybe some timing issues, maybe the plug-in has to react differently to some messages, return different result codes, fill in data structures more precisely - or maybe it's just a compiler switch that needs to be set for WM2003SE?

Again, PZPTray works nicely, so it's not a problem in PZP's "business logic" - it's a problem in the parts which are particular to a Today Screen Plug-In.

If you have the time, it'd be nice if you could have a look at this issue. PZPTray is good, but PZP as Today plug-in is just nicer... :-)

Thanks in advance, and Merry Christmas to you and all others!

Cheers, Daniel
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] zendrui:
Thanks for your report.

I received a mail from someone that have an ImateJam, telling me that today refresh had sometimes problem for PZP and other plugins.

Maybe something changed for the today screen refresh for that devices or for WM2003SE ?

I will check if I find something.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] xda-rocks:
I haven't had any problems specifically with pzp, but many of my today plug-ins don't always refresh properly under wm2003se

[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] andrewpmoore:
Yes, it was me that mailed you.

I don't know if this has been mentioned before, but I think a cool feature that could be added to the today plugin would be the ability to navigate it with the directional buttons.

When on the today screen, I can step through all of the default plugins and select them from there. It'd be great if you could select the PZP using the up/down keys then use left/right to select a highlight a profile and then press enter to select it. Then you wouldn't need to use the screen to select the profile.

What do others think?
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] Avalon-99:
It could not work for me.

I have Pocketbreeze on my todayscreen and I can Switch and scroll PocketBreeze tabs using my Pocket PC D-Pad.

So what will be happen, if I use 2 Today-Plugins which uses Navigation-Buttons.

feature request

Hi, i am a new user with an xda 2 mini. Just found ur software and loved it. however, i have a feature request that you might want to consider.

I think the ability to see the selected profile as well as the various status e.g. timed, scheduled, etc as a single icon on the title bar much like the signal strength indicator will be really great. Add on top of that the ability to SELECT a profile.... now i think that will be heaven :)

Re: Today Plugin probs with WM2003SE (on MDA Compact)

Okay, someone over at the PPC-Welt forum found the cause and solution to this issue. Zendrui, it's not PZP's fault - seems Microsoft screwed this one up. :shock:

Try the tray version. It does almost what you want. At the bottom of the screen rather than the top!

not quite. the tray version only shows up in the Today screen rite? I'm talking about seeing the profile indicators across ALL apps. much like the signal indicator.

Re: Today Plugin probs with WM2003SE (on MDA Compact)

I never thought of that. Don't know how it works but the problem will be : how to display in a such litlle place the mode+the status. Because it seems that you cannot have colored icon at the top of the screen ...

Thanks I will read it ;)

Thanks for buying PZP :)

All the explanation is here http://www.pocketzenphone.net/switchicon.htm

But if it is not clear do not hesitate to ask me ;)
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] Pocket Me:
@Zendrui:

I'm using XDA Mini WM2003SE. My Mode 4 is Radio ON, Bluetooth Connectable (MS), Headset ON. I activate Mode 4 to current mode after that I soft reset.

Now I always receive an error message "No Bluetooth Hardware installed" in Bluetooth Setting and all objects in Settings/Connections/Bluetooth is disabled.

Everything is OK if I activate other Mode with Bluetooth OFF and soft reset.

One more, I'm wondering why profiles of PocketZenPhone has Backlight Settings without Power Settings??? I set Backlight off after 2 minutes but power turn off after 1 minute.

Giving Backlight Settings into profiles is a good idea but we need Power Setings togetther.

Thank you!
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] tadzio:
I had the very same problem on my Magician. Turned out it had nothing to do with PocketZenPhone. I also suspected PZP at first, because it's the only program I have that changes the Bluetooth state. However, the problem is Microsoft's fault - look here. I very strongly suspect this is the reason for your problems!

Note that the trial version of SKTools will display only the first six entries of your Today Plug-In list, but afair it re-numbers all of them when you move one. But double-check in your Registry!

The bad news is that you may need to hard-reset your device to get Bluetooth back, as your XAD Mini is utterly confused at the moment. This bug seems to corrupt internal data quite solidly. The good news is that if you keep your Today Plug-Ins in good order afterwards, the problem will not come back!

I completely agree. Let's wait what Zendrui has to say about this suggestion. :-)

Cheers, Daniel

It wouldn't work for me either since I use PIToday which navigates my appointments/tasks using the nav-pad. I also question the value of using the nav-pad to perform a task perhaps twice/three times a day, I'd find it more of a pain to use the nav-pad than the screen to switch profiles.

Hi,

Bluetooth : Well for microsoft BT stack I use the standard functiuns provided by microsoft so I don't know. I hope this is a microsoft fault because I didn't change anything since the first time to turn on MS BT stack ... Let me knwo if you have more clues

Power Settings : Ok I aggree and to tell you the truth this is still integrated in my current version (the future 5.2) :wink:

For now I need to test moredeeply the 5.2 but it has

- Backlight settings dissociated for 'on battery' and 'on power'

- Possibily to actiavte or deactivate all the settings group one by one

- PZP Tray can now be assigned to a button

- Durations for Time Menu customizable

- Power Settings

Nav-PAD : As shown upper it will be possible to assign PZPtray to a button so that would answer the need no? Assign the today plugin is more complicated and not sure if it is really usefull...

mp3: Does XDAmini/ImateJam/HTCMagician supports mp3 as ringtone ? If yes I will add the mp3 support in PZP.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] :
well, having quick access to change profile will surely be useful (reminds me of the nokia phones) but what i would really like to see is a status cum profile icon on the taskbar itself so that i am aware of which profile i'm in anytime. why this may be useful? imagine having setup a timed profile or if using the outlook profiles, it will be great if i get a visual clue when the switch happens so that i can stop the switch or switch it to something else if necessary. This scenario will play out well if you set a timed profile to silent for a meeting and the meeting overrun the scheduled time.

YES! all my ringtones are actually in mp3 format so i'm having a hard time converting them to wma :(

[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] zendrui:
Well I will try to improve that but I don't know where it comes from :?

For the next version ;)
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] :
well, an idea would be to have the main icon picture as the selected profile and dedicate a small area (say at the bottom right corner) for the current status (i.e. whether outlook/scheduled profiles allowed, outlook or timed profile running, etc) much like the shortcut overlay on a file/folder icon in windows explorer.

another suggestion is to split the icon into 2 distinct areas (diagonal split maybe?) and have one half for the selected profile and the other for the status.

what do u think?
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] :
a suggestion... how about allowing the sampling (i.e. playing) of the ringtone selected? much like the function in the notifications?
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] andrewpmoore:
I'm not sure if this is the same on all version of ppc (I'm on 2003 SE) but the control of the dpad would only control the profiles when focus is on the pzp plug-in. I wouldn't expect it to replace the standard d-pad functionality if it's not focussed on it.

For example on my i-mate jam, if I get a new text message, I can press the down dpad 3 times (once to get to the date time pluging, once to get to the owner information and once again to get to the messages pluging)

From there I can select the unread message. I can do the same for appointments, tasks etc.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] zendrui:
Do you think it would be readable ? I mean the tray icon is yet very small ..

Well I can add that for wave but for wma or mp3 it will need to add a player ...

For now I won't add the d-pad support.

In the next PZPtray version it will be possible to assign it on a button. that would answer the need I guess.

[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] thefa:
Zendrui,

I read the discussions on the possibility to show "many" things on PZP Tray icons.

To me, as a first step, I think we should at least have icons (like plane, car, desk etc...) available instead of the 1, 2, 3 etc... icons.

Any chance that we can get this in 5.2?

Thanks.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] thefa:
Also, any chance to get a true forum for supporting your app?

[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] iggy:
Hi Zen, I think this is a great idea, for me assignment to a button is a great idea but the buttons I could assign takes away from my one handed operation.

Same as another great idea of placing PzP Tray in the upper bar, very hard to reach in onehanded operation. If you could find a way to make the icon Wider (say instead of 16/16 we would have 30 wide 16high) these are just references I have no idea what the actual icon size is. Then use the icons thefa mentioned above.

Just my 1 1/2 cents
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] zendrui:
Yes I'm looking to find a solution for that in priority for the 5.2.

Well I made a forum on my web site but most users decided that it is more usefull to keep it here...

Unfortunatelly wince limits tray icon to 16*16. If I try to include a bigger icon it is not displayed :(

And aprt that the only way is the today plugin...

I noticed that there are a a couple more options available in the ringtone ring section than the stock settings. However, not all of them works. so far, i've tried increasing ring and vibrate and i got just normal ringing without vibration. anothing thing is why are there two separate options for flash and display for notifications? I've tried to uncheck display but my mini still turns on when i get a notification.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] mtbsoft:
Has anyone else noticed that PZPTray hates being second... or third... or anywhere but the first position in the tray?

I have about six items on average and I've noticed that PZP always forces its way to the head of the queue, sometimes even leaving a gap when other software closes down. Just a minor point but annoying nonetheless.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 General] zendrui:
Happy new Year :D

I will try the ring mode you mention.

display and flash options are disociated in the standard sounds&notifications settings (before you install PZP)

I guess that if you uncheck display then the reminder pop-up doesn't appear. Same for the SMS...

Flash is for the led so that's normal if there are two separated options...

Good question I don't have toher program in tray.

I don't think I put any index when I set PZP as a tray... but I will check if there is something like that forcing PZP to be first ...

bug: scheduled profile switches

Hi, just noticed a minor UI bug.

When a scheduled switch is active and u tap and hold the profile, you will see the msg "Switching to XX at YY" where XX is the profile to be switched to at time YY. the XX profile is correctly displayed but unfortunately, the time YY shows the start time of the current profile rather than the end time.
