installed IContact.03 on my 700wx. However, when I click on Menu(right softkey) and then click on Contacts, it pulls up the original Contacts list that is on the 700 instead of the IContact list. I have to go to File Explorer > My Device > IContact to pull up the IContact program. When I used Pocket CM .12, I clicked on the Contacts tab and it loaded the Pocket CM program. I have uninstalled Pocket CM.... What can I do to make this happen with the IContact Program? Is there a way to change the right softkey to IContacts short of having to mess with register keys? Any help, suggestions would be greatly appreciated! I tried asking this question of Treo 700 owners and they stated that since it was not a program but an .exe file that I should try here...
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] craftyb:
The PocketCM cab installs a registry key to make itself the default contacts application (HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shell\Rai\:MSCONTACTS\String 1).

You could just use a Softkey changer application to set your softkeys to whatever you like:

Thanks craftyb..... I will give it a try!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] BigJohn72:
LOL should be enough alright.

Any toughts on why i only see the A and B contact?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] larna:
Well, I'm not sure. I guess it's a bug in iContact, I'm just not sure where is it :)

Are maybe your other contacts located on SIM card?

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] dovdoron:
very very nice work using i-mate jam 2003se perfect!

keep up the good work
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] BigJohn72:
It has to do with the lenght of the displayed name. When a name gets to long the list stops. When i change/shorten the names I get the complete A-Z listing. Hope this helps in the further development of this great app!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] larna:
Great find BigJohn. This will certainly make it's way into next release. btw, how long are your longest names?

Thx,

larna
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] richierich:
Larna,

After being blown away by the last update, you got me thinking.

Im still running wm2003se and have noticed a whole host of "finger friendly" apps popping up, most noatbly the keyboard (iphone style). But alas, this only runs on wm5/6, so was hoping you could develop something similar for us wm2003 bods???

I've requested this to the authors of the original app, but no one seems to listen, so please please please, give me another reason NOT to buy a wm5 device!!!

Thanks for all your efforts thus far, you've kept this geek smiling for hours!!!

RR
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] larna:
Hi richierich,

Sorry to inform you, but i'm not gonna do wm2003 iphone like keyboard. The main reason is that i don't really need it, and i don't even have time to develop iContact properly.

I have ideas and fantasies (?) about other finger friendly applications (iContact tolerates them :)), but as i said, time is the problem.

Have fun,

larna
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] xxza:
larna: your icontact app is really great! Please keep making it better and better! Thanks.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] BigJohn72:
my 'normal' names dont go beyond aprx 25 characters and dont seem to be a problem. I had some unusual combinations in the names of contact, spouse ans children which when around 35 characters stoped the list.

a good reason to clean op my contact and enter them the proper way:D

the app works as a charm now!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] larna:
hehe, so it has educational purposes also :)

larna
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] richierich:
Hey Larna,

Thanks for the response dude, and thats totally cool! Im honoured enough to have this little jem running on my device as it is. Guess im gonna have to take a look at that Kaiser after all! Lol!

Once again, thanks for all you're hard (yet beautiful) work.

iContact

it work perfectly well with my 02 Atom Life. Good
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] FoneBone:
I'm really new in using mobile software cause I owned a Loox 420 on tuesday this week :rolleyes:

And I like iContact (0.3) very much, but I've got two small problems:

1. After closing this app, it remains in the memory. The only way to close, is to terminate the process in the taskmanager.

2. It leaves the fullscreen-mode after closing a contact.

Btw: This Loox 420 uses Windows Mobile 2003. If you like, I would beta-test this app on WM2003.

Regards.

scrolling feature needed for one callendar application

scrolling feature needed for calendar

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

It´s just one idea

I only need finger scrolling on calendar,because i syncronise the calendar in pc, like iContacts.

just to scroll along the month .

ex:

15 September 2007

16 September 2007

17 September 2007

and scroll along the days

the idea was the contact for ex: "MarcoS200" was changed by the day "15 September 2007" just to chose the day to open.

when tapping just open the Poutlook defaut windows calendar.

just a normal scrolling code like yours awasome one.

Thanks for the work
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Whiterat:
I just want to say - THANK YOU!

This is by FAR THE BEST finger friendly contact viewer out there!

Its so small, fast, elegant and now looks sweet with the touch style theme.

Very Very Cool, Many thanks once again ;)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] PPCApache:
Tried this on my Axim X51v it looks good but does not work, when I click on one of my contacts it come up with a blank screen (see attached screen shot) and when I click on the ABC pops up then turns a dark red colour (background) and then minimises.

Also it is a lot slower than v1.0 & v2.0, one good this is the text is larger which is great on my VGA device.

So unless I am doing something wrong no go for me...

Cheers

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] LordDeath:
hello larna,

i have a question about icontact:

i would like to see the application in the batterystatus taskmanager but it isn't listed there. afaik taskmanager like htc x-button, pbar or batterystatus show only applications within a window. but your icontact isn't one.

to release the program memory i have to open a process viewer like sktools and close it from there. :(

is there any easier way to do this? the best solution would be, if your app is listed in these taskmanagers.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Chiefcooker:
hi, i tested your software on wm6 with hermes, it is really cool. maybe there is a way to make it fullscreen, and add a quit section like the "abc" section but in upper right corner? and it should be in taskmanager or quit automatically when i tap on one contact and leave your app. maybe you can disable the grid when i tap "abc", it looks not very beautiful. and maybe you can make it look more 3d when you do "light - dark - light" colors in every contact field.

sry for my english, nice app, really cool.

regards chief
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] siscor:
I have the same problem scroll up to "M", and also when I press the contact just close the application and does not show any contact details.

I have had previously the scroll blocked in letter H, I deleted the following contact and now I can scroll up to "M".

Anyway is a great application!

Is any kind of donation I could make so you can investigate further to solve those issues????

Thanks!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] iggy:
Same here, except I get only up to C and also clicking on contact closes app.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] poorlyduck:
this is the best simple scrolling program Ive seen so far, not too complicated and works great in my Mogul, thank you very much for your hard work, keep it up.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Dr J:
thanks so much for this!

had to change over from Pocket CM which was becoming too focused on sms messaging.

one issue i'm having, not sure if it's been mentioned before :

i'm using the program on a Touch / Elf, and when i sweep my thumb up to pick a letter in the ABC shortcut, the touchflo cube kicks in. even when being slow and careful...

anyways, minor gripe, great program. nice and clean and simple, finger-friendly (if only M$ could take that on board for their OS!) :):cool:
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Chiefcooker:
i have tested a bit more and i have the following bugs:

1) the abc button doesnt work somtimes.

2) icontact should refresh itself after i do a change to the contacts.

requests:

visible in taskmanager

touch features for edit/create contacts.

Hi ...

me again ... on my vario II i only can scroll to the letter "M".

There i can see the first 2 M-Names but the other ones won't

come :-( Can someone help me ?

The "ABC-Button" also shows only A-M ...

Is there a cab-File for install the version 0.3 or can I override the

icontact.exe in the programm-dir ?

CU and thank you for help ... No.Trace !!!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Chiefcooker:
overwrite it...
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] larna:
that is probably bug related to contact name length. It seems that it stops displaying names after certain contact with long name is found.

If you can, try finding which is the first contact that isn't shown, and try to rename it so that first and lastname are shorter. Then see if anything change in iContact.

iContacts vs Touch (cube)

Congratulations :) "Larna" for this very light application, very light but very funy and very quickly essensial.

But (there is always one but), with my HTC Touch(Elf), I've the same problem that mentioned below by Dr J :

"i'm using the program on a Touch / Elf, and when i sweep my thumb up to pick a letter in the ABC shortcut, the touchflo cube kicks in. even when being slow, slow and careful..........."

...in version 0.4 perhaps

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] No.Trace:
Hi there ...

can you perhaps put a color-choose-mode in the next

version ? or that icontact can use the skin-color ?

But wonderful work ... and thanks No.Trace !!!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] michd43:
Hi larna,

I was wondering if their is way to make icontact the default contact? I have it setup to one of my softkeys, but i also want it setup to my softkey when i'm in the phone menu. Also instead of black, making it white again like versions 1 and 2

Thanks for your hard work.

Noob Question

Sorry for the dumb question, but where do I place this program on my device so that I can map it to the right soft button?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] michd43:
You can map it anywhere. I have it on the device under programs because its so small. Just make new folder and put it in.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] sfjunglist:
I placed it in a new folder under windows\programs\iContact. I still can't map it to any buttons.

Thanks for your help
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] michd43:
Are you trying to use a softkey or a button?

If you want a button, copy icontacts to windows\startmenu\programs. Then map a button to it.

If you want a Registry Hack for a softkey. Copy icontacts into a new folder in programs (not windows\programs) or just leave it your storage card and use remap softkey. Its a sample program to do a softkey registry hack. Just open remap softkey, find icontacts and pick a softkey. That sample.

Let me know how it goes.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Demuri:
Hi,

I have a problem with iContact 0.3 on my HTC P3300. It shows only some part of contacts for each letter. For example, there are 19 contacts on A, but it shows only 16. Got any idea how to fix it?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] fette_ente:
hey, great program i really enjoy searching contacts now! :)

whats about a sliding in contact information page after selecting it, in the same style? like pocketcm?

that would be great :)

greets
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] larna:
Are the rest of your contacts on sim card maybe?

If so, icontact can't show them. It only shows pocket outlook contacts.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Demuri:
No, all the contacts are in the main address book. Here some screenshots

OK, this is main contacts. See the contact marked with arrow?

So, there is no "Avto, Igorj" on A or I
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] larna:
I have no idea why it doesn't show all contacts. It should show all contacts from Outlook address book. Sorry.

larna
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Demuri:
Anyway thanks, larna, this is not very critical bug.

If You'll have any good idea about it and need any information from me about my system and device, please write me demuri [at] gmail dot com
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] poorlyduck:
I noticed when you open Icontact, there is no way to stop it from running in the background, I only can close it for good using Memaid> running process > Terminate. Are you planning in adding the closing option like xbutton for it?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] RojasTKD:
I tried PocketCM but ended up removing it. I thike you iContact better because it looks nice, scrools very well, and dosen't replace my original contact app. This one is a keeper.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] starbase64:
hi,

the previous contribution is not correct, I has now the true reason why i contakt did not function.

Some directory entries were too long, therefore more than 40 indications had.

As I this changed functioned suddenly everything marvelously.

I provided then again an entry with 50 indications and it functioned at one time nevertheless.

I do not point why.

Cannot choose contact with Icontacts

Hello,

I am using pandora with icontacts rom. Icontacts is working, at least i can browse but i cannot choose any contact. When i push on a contact, Icontact closes. Furthermore i only can browse between a and s but i saw that it has something to do with the name length, so i will check.

Is there someone who has the same problems or can help me with choosing a contact?

Thanks in advance,

I Guess Its Only Because Of "vga".

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] edkmho:
Larna,

I have tested your application and found that your application every launch and exit will consumed 200k, I am not sure if this is call memory leak.

The way, i tested it, was launch the application then click ok, and then launch again. There isn't any application running in the background at all. Every time it will take 200Kb from the memory.

I had memory starting at 24 Mb and several times of launch and exit will cause my phone memory to reduce to a level where it is very dangerously low, 13Mb

not sure if it is me...

running v 0.3 on a trinity with mun's latest rom

I only get a fraction of my address book - i have over 300 contacts and it looks like I only get 128 (I'm guessing its this number as I haven't counted but just approximated from where in the list)

also when I click on a name, it crashes (no errors) and drops out to the today page.

looks good and scrolls smothly, looking forward to seeing this working.

did a little more testing.

v0.2 works fine for me. full address book and links to contact - installed from cab

v0.3 has problems as described above - unzipped and coppied

REQUEST FOR THREAD - can all updates be put on the homepage.

Oliy put the cabs on #318 and I almost missed them.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] larna:
Try to look few posts back. Current version has a bug that is related to contacts name length. So if you edit the last contact shown, and shorten it's name, it will work. Unless there are more contacts with long names.

If you don't feel comfortable doing so, wait till next release, which will have the necessary fix.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] samy.3660:
First try creating a shortcut of the icontact to windows/startmenu/programs

with total commander.

Then Just drop this application on your windows folder with total commander and then go to your setting/systems/soft key and change the softkey.

anyone knows how to change the softkey to link to iContact.exe on the
