Okay, so if I understand you correctly, if I remove the leading # it will become a setting. it looks like the default is with postal code last already, if i read the comments above correctly. I also have the double parenthesis issue. i installed the english translation settings but did not help. Can i fix it manually?

Thanks for taking the time to answer my cosmetic problems. The program is great as is but us picky people always want to improve on a good thing.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tene:
Well first... I propose you, and all of you actually to download the new PocketCM 0.5 version of a finger friendly contact manager.

You can go grab it on www.pocketcm.com.

Regarding your issue with double parenthesis, you can simply inspire yourself from an existing language file, and adapt to your need. But PocketCM doesn't have this issue by default.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Guybrush:
finally you decide to made a native version... what language did u used for that why .exe is so bigger ? ehehe you used letter separator as iMedia ;) now I'm in holiday and i can continue my work too :) you are doing a good job ;)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tene:
It's in C++, and has some MFC crap dependancy... not that much of course.

Also the exe contains some embedded resource, that explain the size.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Guybrush:
sorry i asked in other thread because i though you had closed this one
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] deanerh:
Just replaced previous version with new Native version. Very cool. One question: not sure what is supposed to be happening on the SMS screen. The Send button doesn't do anything and is the the keyboard supposed to allow you to start inputing text? Not sure how that works

Hi.

My first time to use Pocket CM 0.6 today.

May I ask for your help...how do I add/ create new contacts to my list in Pocket CM?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] kintestyle:
Upgrade to the 0.9 version !!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Valentin.H:
I dont see the 0.11 on your website :/
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] dinoalbert:
I forgot to say...Im actually using 0.9 already....still I cant figure out how to easily add contact. I know i can add/create by scrolling to the topmost.

But is there other way to add/ create new contact without scrolling all the way to the topmost?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] NRGZ28:
Uh... no! Not really... What's so hard about scrolling to the top ? Push the "#" on the left.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] esdime:
im using the pocket cm v.09 and I was wondering if there was a way to make it when I get a text and open it that it opens through pcm instead of the factory way on the mogul, cause I like the way pcm does texts better?

Superb work, tene! Would it be possible incorporate an endless scrolling list option in some later version (as in looping the list so it doesn't stop when reaching the first or the last record)?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] imstill@g:
Definately the best I have tried so far, Thanks for alll of the hard work'
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] orian:
This is awesome thanks so much.

One request however... Can you include an option to order contacts alphabetically by first name instead of last name and display as first name last name instead of last name, first name.

Thanks heaps!

D pad scrolling in background

Tene,

When you are viewing a contact, and use the D-pad it actually scrolls the main contact window list (in the background). I tried to use it to scroll through a long list of telephone numbers for a contact, but it did not scroll.

When I went back to my contacts list, it is no where I left off, but have to scroll back to where I was.

Even if using the D-pad for viewing many telephone numbers, in the selected contact's view is disabled, it should not affect the contact list.

Regards,

Greg

Best Contact App

Hi, I have tried and was the best contact application used so far. I have Larna's, Guybrush and your contact in my phone and yours rule on the features man. Thanks.:D
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] renierx:
Fantastic work, Tene!

A bug: when I edit a contact, not changing anythig, closing contact detail and then open contact detail again, buttons for phone numbers are duplicated (two times the same buttons for Mobile and SMS Mobile)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] greg3d:
I just tried it, and it does it for ALL phone numbers..however many you have for a contact. I did it twice and ended up with 15 buttons for one contact. :)

Thank you.

Not a problem ,I have tested it , you just close the contact manager & re-open it. everything will be fine.

NOte : not minimize , for sure , go to memory ->running program & stop it.

Hello,

I've try to open contact manager with ResHacker for traduce in FRENCH, but i cant edit language..

No possibility to have other languages ??

NICE WORK !
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Mr Groch:
It looks really ugly on VGA screens...

Contact number nad contact name fonts are overlapping

Contact photo is really oversized in details screen (it is resized

to about 70% of the screen, and contact info is over the screen

(fonts are also overlapped)

Buttons are too small, and fonts are too big (specially font, that appers

after selecting letter from index)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Sian:
Emm.. don't think so. I did tried installing .Net Framework 2 in my SD card but not successful. Was told that I need to install it in my device. Didn't try again after that. My HTC P3600 is WM5 at the moment. Looking forward to the WM6 upgrade coming in July! = )

Suggestions for your consideration:

1) Put 'Back' & 'Edit' button on the bottom. More 'friendly' to the thumb. :)

2) Instead of stating 'Mobile', 'SMS Mobile', etc. why don't you use the standard (or similar) icons of a handphone to represent 'Mobile', a 'Letter (with the word SMS)' to represent 'SMS', a home icon to represent calling 'Home'? Then your button need not have to be so long.

3) For the 'Back' Button, can use a 'Arrow' (pointing left).

4) Think for the two softkey, you can actually set the 'Left' to 'Exit' and 'Right' to 'Menu', where a list of features can be found, e.g. Edit, New, Delete, etc.

[Btw, can you actually 'slide' to the default 'Contact'? Then you don't need to create another 'user interface' for making call, sending sms, edit the numbers, etc.]

Sorry, I'm not good at graphics, nor do i have the right tool. So, can only give some suggestion in words. But you have done a great job here! Keep it up. Contact Manager is now assigned to my left softkey!:D
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pennymak:
Excellent App.... The function and overall design is quite mature!! It works well on my gsmart i300.

To make the program more user-friendly, I have following suggestions:

1. The transparent "A-Z" index at the right border is so great. It would be more perfect is the selection region (width of transparent border) can be enlarged so that it can be easily operated with right thumb.

2. Is it possible to display company name (after the phone number) in scrolling page as well as in detail page?

3. As most of non-TOUCH machine are no optimized for thumb opeation, I found that it is so easily to "mistakenly click into detail page" while I am scrolling with my thumb. Would it be better if change it to "double click" ??

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] greg3d:
Image used for Feedback

Tene,

If I use a wider image for the feedback image used for pointing to the index, it leaves pixels of the image behind while scrolling, and the entire image is not displayed.

For example, yse your "button.png" for the feedback image by altering the setup.ini file and you'll see what I mean.

Ot would be also handy to be able to specify how far in (in pixels) to place the "feedback_font", so when using a full width custom image, you can place the font in the right place, like in the center of the screen as an example.

Also, since you are using the Touch, you don't have a plastic raised bezel around the screen making it very easy to hit the invisible area's on the left/right to access the index. Most all other phones do have the bezel, making it a tight fit to hit those areas. Perhaps a wider index area, or the ability to define how wide it is via the setup.ini.

Regards,

Greg
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] hma4:
I do agree with the double click thing , it would be perfect if instead of single click for viewing the detail page, we could double click .. or we could set it in setup.ini ..

Suggestions for favorites

- Be able to add name - phone number type (so, like just mobile phone) to favorites

- Be able to rename items on favorites (so, nick name for that loved one)

- Able to control the order of items on favorites

- Able to launch right into the favorite screen upon app launch

version 0.5

I just tried the 0.5 version and the up button to scroll the contacts is not working (I have a Wizard), also i was wondering if you can implement an option in settings.ini to disable photos in the contact list but not in the contact details.

Thank you for this amazing work! :)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] greg3d:
Version 0.5b

Tene,

Thank you so much for adding all the new settings in the .ini file, it's making it more and more functional on a daily basis. Congrats.

BUG:

The D-pad is broken in some places. In the main contact list, LEFT and UP do not not work.

Inside of a contact with a lot of numbers, UP does not work, but DOWN works nicely scrolling through the telephone numbers. Here the LEFT D-pad functions the same as hitting the BACK button...nice touch.

(Using an HTC Apache WM5)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Mr Groch:
Thx, it looks much better on VGA screen now :) One bug remains - font

of chosen letter from index in arrow that apperas after tapping - is too big

and con't be changed....

Feature request - while sliding, will be really great stopping the list with single tapping. Now when I tab the srceen while list is in the move, always

contact detail will apper... To stop, I myst tap and drag the list a liitle...

Index button graphic misalignment

Tene,

I am using an index_font size of 8, and using a custom feedback_image (modified button.png, same height, but with an arrow on the left side).

The button image is positioned a few pixels too high, so that the arrow points above the letter being displayed. This also makes the Letter look like it's not positioned vertically within the button properly.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] srt10coupe:
@ Tene

the old button is not replaced by the new.

i put the file button.png into the same directory.

can you fixed?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] greg3d:
You have to edit the setup.ini file, and remove the comment "#" character from the line so that it acually uses it.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] srt10coupe:
THX BIG THX, i remove "#" and my new button is used.

Must i remove the "#" for all settings or only button settings?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] orian:
is there a chance you will implement the ability to change the ordering of contacts to first-name based instead of surname?

I'd really appreciate that functionality, as would quite a few people I know.

Cheers, and keep up the excellent work!

Can you send me you setting.ini? so I can make sure it works?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tene:
Can you send me the modified image? however the solution would be to make a transparent border on the edge. I use the image width and height to position the image, not the visible image width/height, so it gives you the opportunity to do exactly what you want.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tene:
??? do you correctly set the parameter for your image in setting.ini? by default the app will draw the button itself without parameter, no matter what picture are on your PPC.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tene:
For now I use the "file as" property, I was being told it's the "most common case". However, for next version I plan to allow you to customize what's displayed... gimme some time ;)

In the meantime if one of you (or lot of you), can send me some skinning, image, etc... to make me feel it's not "one way contribution" ;)

hi Tene,

Tanks for this great apps!!!

But can i ask u to put in your wish list, to make the app start in full screen? (without the windows icon, signal strenght, batery status.....)

Maybe it is inpossible with windows mobile?

Than you.

p.s :	0.5b does not page up also on asus p535 wm5.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tene:
Hi,

Yes, it's not difficult... the only question is what will be required to close the app? any idea?

By the way, up isn't working, it's a small regression, next version will fix it.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] 7s7:
Is there any way of getting the program to check whether it is all ready running and running that instance. If you are not running x-button etc you can end up with multiple instances of this app.

Thanks

Yes, i have an idea. When a corner will be pressed, the app will be closed.

With an icon or not, as you want (i prefer without ;-))

@ tene

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] steadi:
Could you not make the left softkey take that function? Even fullscreen you can still label the softkeys so it shouldn't confuse the user, even if it's just simple text over the key. Just be subtle.

Fullscreen is certainly my biggest wish, and maybe make the list a bit more pleasing to the eye by adding a subtle bevel on the divider lines to give the contact labels some definition. Though this may slow the scrolling down too much.

Thanks for a wonderful application, it works amazingly well on my Herald and I use it a lot. I'm looking forward to fullscreen functionality ;-)

Crashing on Use...

Great app! But, I'm getting intermittent crashing on use. Are there any settings I can apply to prevent this?

thx
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tene:
Use the "no_crash=1" setting :p

Seriously, I don't have such problem, but as the developer I probably start and stop it quite often. Is it repeatable? do you have some specific contact for which it happens, what are you doing on crash? what's displayed on crash? can you send me a stacktrace or something?

Anyway, try 0.6, I hope it's gonna be better, there can be one or two running condition that I've fixed that can make things better.

Hi,

i made a Settings.ini for Hermes Schaps purple ROM

But when i change:

# font used for button

#button_font=10,bold

#button_text_color=113,50,137

the button text color stays black (0,0,0)

Another issue: It's possible to scroll down but not up.

How can we change the color of the pictures (e.g. the popup grey arrow then pressing the A-Z list) ?

They are grey, want them purple too.

Nice would be a shortcut (lnk-file with program-picture) for program list, so we can associate C-Manager to a Hardwarebutton.

Purple Settings attached:

Edit: Purple background added and purple buttontext
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] deenice:
Found out the problem with the intermittent crashing. I was running out of memory. I wish there were a way to prevent the crash due to memory contraints. I need to start diving into programming myself to help troubleshoot. I'll get a stack trace of the memory error the next time it happens. Also I had the 0.5b version. Just updated to 0.6. Thanks for the reply!!!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tene:
the # in front of entry is for comment, so you have to remove the # in order to make this a setting.

Fixed in 0.6

Short answer: you can't

Long answer, make your own picture it will be the color you want the way you want. I've attached the one currently in use by the app.

It will come later, I focus on the soft before the packaging. However creating one yourself shouldn't be that hard.

Thanks for the settings, I'll test it.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] greg3d:
PAPPLE,

Remove the '#' from:

#button_font=10,bold

#button_text_color=113,50,137[/COLOR]

The '#' character means that line is commented out, and will not be evaluated. Removing it will cause the program to use the value set there.

Tene,

Thanks for adding all of the additional settings.ini.

The continuous index scrolling is a bit odd at the moment. When at the bottom of the list, slowly scrolling the index up with your finger will scroll up and display starting at the begining of the list as expected.

If you try to spin it fast (flicking your finger over the display), the list snaps back to the last entry as if it was spring loaded. :) You have to flick your finger all the way to the top of the screen (and hit the bezel) and it will sometimes scroll properly.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] ilan_75:

thanks for the full screen and all things.

Another thing to th wish list : is it possible to make biger the name when this one is in the midle of the screen?

I don't know how to explain in english. Make the contact list like a wave, where the top of the wave is the middle of the screen.

Am i clear?

Thanks for all!!
