Mortring + PocketZenPhone.

Hi Mort,

Mortring is a must have application! It's really amazing!

I have only a problem with Pzp.

I have a different ringtone in work profile. But if I set Mortring in a "non-work" profile , I switch profile to work ad I receive a call I always have the "non-work" ringtone...

There is a way to set mortring to have only ringtone for specific contact and specific category? Or Mortring refresh default ringtone for category when i change profile (also with external link to refresh so I can set Pzp to execute it when I change profile).

Thank you in advance for attention, ciao, ilVanni.

Contact not recognized

Hi Mort,

First of all, allow me to thank you from the bottom of my heart - you have no idea how much I craved for an application like MortRing.

I've just ran into a problem, having one of my contacts not recognized, thus playing the default ring tone. All of my contacts numbers are saved in the following format: 052-1234567. The call was identified as 0521234567 and so the recent number function reads "unknown" (although it is clearly my contact's phone number, without the "-").

Thanks,

eshaham.
[General Topics] Mort:
The settings screen is only shown if there are no settings. Enter the required predial numbers, and it's never shown again automatically.
[General Topics] Mort:
Re: Mortring + PocketZenPhone.

You'll always have the ringtone you set in MortRing, since it overrides the same registry value as PZP. For MortRing, there's no difference whether it overwrites the ringtone from a former call or the one of PZP.
[General Topics] Mort:
Re: Contact not recognized

I remove all non-numeric characters before comparing the numbers, so a dash shouldn't do any harm. As which kind of number was it saved (e.g., I missed Work2 until the recent version)?
[General Topics] eshaham:
Re: Contact not recognized

I don't think that's the problem - it happend in "mobile" number type.

And also, the weird thing is that sometimes it works correctly for the same number.
[General Topics] eastmushu:
Mort, is it possible to add H2 number to MORTRing as well as I noticed that it used the one of the non categorized number's ringtone instead of the category which I have assigned the number to.

Other than that, I am still very happy with MORTRIng. Thanks again... :-)

Problems :(

Hi,

I appear to have problems using mortring with my t-mobile mda compact.

After installation and (soft-)reboot all was fine; however after yet another reboot mortring stopped functioning.

I havent made any changes to the setup, other than rebooting it. When calling the device *always* plays the default tune. When I check in "Recent Number" in Mortring, it shows the correct tune (so the number is recognised, but the tune is simply not played).

How can this be solved? I tried rebooting a couple more times, with no luck unfortunately.

Thanks a lot!

Ali
[General Topics] Mort:
Re: choose ringtones from sd card

I only set the ringtone for the default call program. This program only plays tunes which are located in the directory that's in the registry value "Directory" of HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\SoundCategories\Ring. You can modify it with any registry editor, and MortRing will use it, too.

I thought about setting this value in an option dialog, but I think it's a bit risky, since the default ringtone(s) will not work unless they're copied to the new location.
[General Topics] Mort:
Re: Problems :(

I'm afraid currently there's nothing I can do about it...

It's more or less a matter of luck whether my program can set the ringtone before the default program reads it. This depends mainly on the number of contacts/phone numbers and probably some installed applications.

The only official way to delay the default program (lineSetAppPriority) doesn't work, and the inofficial way (killing the default program and launching it later) is quite risky, so I decided it's better if my program doesn't work instead of maybe supressing a call completely...
[General Topics] niknam:
Thank you for your reply, perhaps a little extra information is handy:

It's definately not other apps that are started in the "Startup" folder; i removed everything there and the problem persist.

I was thinking however, perhaps one can get it working by not doing the startup in the startup folder, but through the registry in a services startup?

mortring

hi! ive gone thru the entire forum but i still cant make mortring work properly. im currently using v0.91.

the phone numbers in my contacts are written this way:

+<country_code> <area code> <phone number>

ie. +63 (920) 7654321

whenever i receive a call, it's displayed as 09207654321 on my fone. if i change the mobile number to 09207654321 instead of +63 (920) 7654321, it works fine. but i can't do this because i would need to change the number again if im roaming.

i configured the digits to be 00 and 0 respectively. should i configure it differently? thanks!
[General Topics] Koksie:
I have the same problem. My numbers are in my contact list as +31 6 12345678. When I receive a call they are shown as 0612345678 by the phone app. MortRing does therefore not recognize the numbers and plays the default tone. If I change the numbers in my contacts app I cannot use them when roaming, unless I manually edit them to include country codes.
[General Topics] Mort:
Re: mortring

Yes, there's been an error when parsing numbers with "+.. (....) ...." format. Without the parentheses (i.e. +63 920 7654321), it would have worked fine, too.

This was that way because Outlook formatted the numbers as "+63 (0920) 7654321" for me, so I stripped the number after the left parenthesis. Since I didn't use this format, I didn't realize it doesn't work that way...
[General Topics] Mort:
Strange... If you set the local predial to "0", this should work fine...
[General Topics] Koksie:
I use the (..) format too, with the +31 international predial standard in Outlook and my contacts app. I think your new version works, I'll test it later. thanks Mort! greetz to Binky.

Re: thanks alot mort

Wow, didn't know I'm in a magazine... The only other time I know about was a short review of some 0.x version of MortPlayer in a German magazine. Since MP is now 3.2, you can imagine it's been a while ago...

That's a limitation of xda-developers. It's available for free in a German PPC forum, too, and I'll also put it on my web site once it's out of beta state. I think if the outlook format problem is really fixed (rnpasinos, Koksie?) I'll release it as 1.0. I'm thinking about some other features (like an SMS filter with "move to folder" and "delete" options and a blacklist for calls), but due to lack of time this has to wait until a 2.0...

Unknown caller

Hi Mort, I have to ask again, as this issue is continuing to come up.

Sometimes when a contact calls everything works fine, and I get the designated ring for that contact.

Other times I get the default ring and the recent caller feature reads unknown caller, although the number written is definitely the same number as the one in the contact's mobile field.

For the latter case, it seems that the phone DOES recognize the contact's number as the name appears correctly in the call history.

Any ideas?

[General Topics] Mort:
I've got this problem myself sometimes... But I don't have the slightest clue why it happens. When a GPRS connection is created (or disconnected), a callback function from my program is called. But the only thing that happens there is checking which event is called (like "incoming call", "outgoing call", "idle line", ...). For all events which are triggered for GPRS, I don't do anything else.

Just enter the required data. The settings screen is shown only if the data is missing.

Hi Mort,

First of all, I should thank u for the application, It's really great.

I have one query, when there is an sms being sent from the service provider, it didn't display any number nor the service provider's number, rather it took the first contact name from the contacts.

Confusing, may be let me explain a bit detail, I went to india for a trip, when i was on roaming I got a welcome message from a service provider (BPL Mobile), but since this BPL Mobile was not there in the Contact list of mine, the sender's name was displayed as "Bose", which was in the contact list.

Your comments please
[General Topics] Mort:
I have no idea how this could happen. For SMS, I display the sender I get from the system (which is usually something like "Somebody <+123123456>" - like it's shown in "Messaging"). Why it thinks it's "Bose" for "BPL Mobile", I have no idea.

If it contains no digits, the "*number supressed*" wave should be played.

Mortring problem

Hello,

i have just installed Mortring and it looks cool.

BUT i have a problem: i can select .wma and .mp3 files as ringtones, but when i call myself to test the ringtones all i can hear is a "beep" tone.

It does not play the ringtone!

Why? What should I do that I can hear the real ringtone instead of "beep" sounds (they sound like an typical error "beep").. ???

I hope you can help me!
[General Topics] bnycastro:
Try checking under \Settings\Phone\Ringtype: make sure you select a audible one i.e. Ring, Ring Once or Vibrate and Ring or Increasing Ring.
[General Topics] Mort:
You can do that in the settings, too.

Additionally, mind I only set the ringtone for the system's call program, i.e., if your system doesn't support .mp3 or .wma, it won't work. (Though .wma should work everywhere... MP3 seems to work only on Magicians.)

And if you changed the ringtone path in the registry, you need to do a soft reset, since otherwise the system's still looking in the previous directory.
[General Topics] Maaster:
Well, I didn't changed the RingTone Directory in the registry.

I copied the .wma and .mp3 version of the ringtone i want to add there.

But when I want to preview the ringtone with the "play" button, I only get the messgae "no program associated with that file format". This message comes when i select .mp3 files and also if i select .wma files!

.wav files are working!

So what can I do so that my XDA2i will be able to play simple wma or/and mp3 files? The integrated Windows Media Player has no problems with playing that files, but Mortring won't work!

Please tell me, what I can do. Is there a mp3 codec for XDA2i that I will have to installor something like that?
[General Topics] Mort:
This message doesn't have any association with what works as ringtone.

For non-wav files, I simply "execute" them for preview, i.e., it's like clicking them in explorer. Usually, .mp3 and .wma should be associated to WMP, maybe you installed and removed some other player which removed it.

Maybe WMP offers some option to restore this associations.

The ringtones should work anyway. Just try to call yourself...
[General Topics] Mort:
This version should help with the "GPRS reconnect" bug on Magicians.

It closes and reopens the line handles whenever a call or GPRS connection is finished (disconnected).

Hi Mort!

I have a Qtek 9090 with WM2003SE, ROM v1.40. It can not display the name of incoming caller, only the number in a format like this: 006301234567 (in the phonebook its format is +36 (30) 1234567). On my mobile for local calls I have to dial 006 instead of +36 (I live in Hungary) and 000 instead of + for international call. What do I have to type in your program's settings for the predialed codes?

[General Topics] Mort:
Sorry for the break...

Probably it happens if the device is turned on by the call. The storage card can't be accessed right after power on, so Windows falls back to the default ringtone in \Windows directory. I can't delay the call window, so there's nothing I can do about it. Usually, the internal flash rom (\Storage on Magician) is a good place for ringtones.

It's hard coded, since it shouldn't hurt if it's done unnecessarily.

Well, you almost wrote it yourself - 006 for local calls and 000 for international calls.

But this applies only to finding the correct ringtone - the displayed name in the call bubble is shown by Windows phone app, so I can't do anything about that.

In theory, the chinese characters shouldn't harm, since I use the system's function for converting them between 8-bit encoding and unicode.

Maybe there are lots of contacts, so there's not enough memory to keep them?

Hi

First of all, thank you Mort for the fantastic software, it works great for me. However, I also use PZP to set different tones depending on where I am. ie. meeting. car etc. but my text alerts are always the same so i am wondering if you could add the ability for Mortring to allow on/off of the ringtone and/or SMS. That way, I personally, could switch off the rington facility and just use Mortring for SMS alerts.

That's nothing to do with MortRing. As often said before, I only set the ringtone the system's default program will use (or in rare cases not...).
