hi guys, I have pcm v.09 and was wondering if there was a way to make it where when I go my texts like when they come in, or i press my messaging button, that it would go through pcm instead of the default mogul way, i like the way pcm handles texts better but dont like having to bring up pcm and then go through it to my texts? tia guys.

Hi Tene,

I've had some problems with versions: .8, .9 and .10 - missing SMS history. But version .8b has the fix in it and it worked correctly. Can you please reapply the fixes in version .8b to the later versions. Many thanks in advance.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] NickyBoy:
Hi Tene,

The messages still get saved in 'Sent' folder.

Similiar to some of the feedback already given, when tap on 'Back' at 'Notes' page, the app goes back Contact List.

Would be better if the 'back' in 'notes' goes back to Contact details.

I have to say.. Great job!

I tried this app a long time ago and it wasn't good. decided to retry it today... and it's AWESOME!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] mangokun:
a nice effort there.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Bellfazar:
Hi tene. I'm sure I've mentioned this before, but for everyone who is developing skins, it would be really useful if you could give us all the variables and their default values. Obviously I'd prefer a commented file, but if you just want to dump all the variables here, I can go through them and comment them.

I ask because I was going through your forum and the thread that's supposed to have all these variables is incomplete (in some cases just wrong) and poorly commented. So as a service to you and everyone else, please just post all the variables that are working and usable in a list and I'll go through them and comment everything for anyone who wants to use them.

Hi,

Have anyone installed PocketCM with a 3rd calendar/Task software like AgendaOne, Pocket Informant or Agendus ???

I guess these softwares have contact functions too and they can conflict with PCM 8(

CreativeBR
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] jamesus:
If you use Agenda One, you can set it to be your default for Calendar and Tasks while not making it your default for Contacts. :)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Bellfazar:
A lot of these variables are either outdated or not implemented yet. For example, I've been waiting since I think 0.5 for separator_image to work. You asked me for an image to help out and I provided it.

I'm not saying I'm ungrateful or that I'm demanding this from you, I just think that if you could give us a dump of the currently working variables, I wouldn't mind sorting and commenting them. It's just tough to weed out stuff that works and doesn't work, that's all.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tene:
separator_image is probably the only setting that doesn't work as expected. If you have other tell me.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Bellfazar:
I'll look through. In the meantime, a few questions.

1. How do I get rid of the second line in the actual contact list? All I want to do is to be able to display the name.

2. Is there a way to change the formatting for the first line in the actual contact list? I want to be able to bold the first name or last name separately from the other.

3. I know we can define font formatting when using any of the *_font variables, but is there any way to define the font face? (i.e. Verdana, Helvetica, etc.)

4. Is there any way to define where the items in the contact list go? Say I want to be able to set it up this way:

FIRST NAME LAST NAME - PHONE

Instead of:

FIRST NAME LAST NAME
(PHONE)

Is this possible?

5. Can I also mess around with vertical and horizontal alignment on the contact list?

6. How do I define the width of the buttons used to call, email, or SMS?

7. Can I define specific buttons for specific actions? Say I don't use SMS or email that much and want to make their buttons smaller and next to each other instead of as one bar going across. Is that possible?

8. Related to this, can I make each button (mobile, email, SMS, etc.) their own bounding box so I can place it anywhere? What if I want to put mobile at the top and the contact info and other numbers below. Is this possible?

9. Can I move the A-Z index to the other side? Can I make it transparent? Can I remove it altogether?

10. If separator_image doesn't work, can I make the separator a gradient?

11. I don't want to have contact info next to my contact picture, I want to move it below all the action buttons. Is this possible? Can I define boxes for every set of items on the contact details screen?

12. Can I move the <New Contact...> to the bottom of the list if I want to?

That's all I have for now, I'll definitely have more later.

That's the width of the contact_button_list_box

no

no

10. I don't want to have contact info next to my contact picture, I want to move it below all the action buttons. Is this possible? Can I define boxes for every set of items on the contact details screen?

# the rectangle containing the contact title (the name) in the contact detail

contact_title_box

# the rectangle containg the photo of the contact in the contact detail

contact_photo_box

# the rectangle containing the contact detail information

contact_description_box

# the rectangle in which the button are shown (left, top, right, bottom)

contact_button_list_box

11. Can I move the <New Contact...> to the bottom of the list if I want to?

no

I'm not following you here? Are you getting info to write a complete doc? or just asking about possibilities?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Bellfazar:
I tried commenting it out, I tried setting it to nothing and it still showed the number.

I'm not following. Say I want to format each name in the contact list like this:

John [b]Smith[/b] - (555-555-5555)

I'm not sure how to do this based on that single variable.

Basically, can I make each contact entry look like this:

Name
\n
\n

or

\n
Name
\n

or

\n
\n
Name

Or even be able to center the name horizontally. Does that make sense?

I'm trying to make a skin while at the same time trying to write a complete doc. I'll definitely have more questions.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tene:
# formatting use the tag listed a the end of the post

# you put any text you want, except:

#

# \n will become breakline

# any tag will be replaced by it's value (or empty string).

#

# for instance: contact_list_first_line=%phone

# will display phone number instead of names.

#

#

copy paste from the post I send you. What's not clear here? tell me so I can enhance it.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Bellfazar:
I'm not so concerned about that one as I am about the other.

How would I use contact_header_formatting to make it look like this:

John [b]Smith[/b] - (555-555-5555)

Is this possible?

Edit: Sorry, it might not make sense in this case. The SMITH in the contact's name should be bolded or italicized, etc. I don't want the whole thing bold, just a part of it. Is this possible?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tene:
no, it's not.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] spicchio72:
Your work is getting better and better.

I have just to point a bit with the scrolling easyness and smothness. Many times it happens to me that scrolling slowly the contacts lead to a sudden long scroll and I loose the point I were at. Moreover the scrolling is always a bit laggy on my Trinity. Even if that are just small point to solve could you give a look at this guy's app in the very beginning of development?

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=325286

He's trying to create a mediaplayer with iPhone like features and, I have to say, it's scrolling routine looks to me really impressive. Very smooth and weighted.

And it would be nice if you could implement the two solid colors list as he did (one line of one color and one for the other) for the ppl not willing to use any background image.

Keep your great work, PocketCM changed forever the way I use my phone!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Marshall07:
I also noticed that behaviour.

Another strange scrolling behaviour occours with the SMS conversation list (Even if it is at the end, it scrolls like if there are more messages following, but it seems that it only repeats the ones at the end. I also noticed that some SMS bubbles change position 3-4 times quickly and then they go back to the initial position). I guess that the reason is because the program is still loading all the previous SMS (they are a lot!) since this strange behaviour only occours for the first few seconds when I load the SMS list.

If you need a screen capture to explain better this behaviour, I can try.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] hubono:
hello

i don't know if this is mentioned before but on my wizard when i click on the letters side bar and select lets say the letter Z, it should take me to contacts starting with that letter. instead it takes me to B or C or it might just jump one page down. im using the latest release. that usually happens when i first launch the program and after trying a couple of times with different letters then it works. so from what i observed, when u first launch the program it takes a while for the program to do it properly. if i start the program and wait a little bit, then it works perfectly. keep up the good work.

cheers
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tene:
That's because it takes times to load all your contact. It will be addressed in 0.11.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] zmanuel:
Suggestion

One more suggestion for 0.11: currenly only the 1st email address is displayed. Would it be possible to display the other email addresses (i.e. email2, email3 fields s.o.), if they are populated?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] drutort:
this is a really nice app... i wish someone could dev a mouse driver that can emulate this type of scroll with touch screen for all apps or most... thats what WM devices need!!

im sure someone can make a mouse emu? that uses the scroll features at least left right, up down
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] spinedoc:
Bugs so far:

When sliding to go back and forth between favorites and all contacts most often a letter box will appear and stay there until you click the screen. (Why can't we just get rid of the filter, as it adds an extra step. Bring back the favorites soft key!, the slide feature is unreliable)

SMS defaults to the first mobile number. This creates a problem if either the mobile number is prepended to have a code such as *82 to unprivate the caller ID, or if you have a secondary mobile number you would like to use for SMS instead of the primary mobile number. (Simple solution, allow an option to choose SMS number).

When finger scrolling very often the screen jumps way too much. Doesn't happen all the time, but when it does it flips you to a completely different screen area so you have to start over again.

Not a bug, but it would be nice to be able to make the contact slots larger for those of us with fat fingers.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tene:
Favorite soft key will be back if someone has a good way to access the filters...

There's a new setting for it in 0.11 be patient

Can you be more precise?

You can, I invite you to read: http://pocketcm.com/phorum/read.php?8,174

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] ksjulsen:
hey love this software been using it since u created it, anyways i have some issues with .11b, first of the the sms scrolling isn't as smooth anymore, it stops as soon as your finger leaves the screen. second: i now have a bunch of random numbers at the top of my contacts which i understand are the lastest recieved messages or someting like that, wondering if i could get rid of those.

thanks

i actually just closed it and opened it again and now all those random numbers, such as phone operators messages and such are at the bottom of my contacts list, any way to just not have them

Phone numbers ...

Quick question:

How many phone numbers can be stored in one contact?

Can I store 2 mobile phone numbers to a one contact?

Because there are quite a lot of people have 2 mobile phone numbers, one from work, and one private.

And of course, office "desk" phone number, private home (landline) number.

Thanks.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tene:
The easiest way is to add them as contact. how many numbers do you have?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tene:
Did you mark it as read from pocketcm?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tene:
It depends of outlook. 0.11 added an setting to define mobile number based on prefix, please read: http://pocketcm.com/phorum/read.php?8,174

Anyway for sms threading, I always check with all number, so without the settings, reading will works, you need to configure it for sending to those numbers.

around 60, i added them as contacts, but when i close pocketcm and i open it again the same exact 10 or 11 numbers appear at the top of my contacts list. and i just dont really think i can add mtc vodafone as a contact,:p any help would be appreciated
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] k wizzle:
thanks.. will do
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tene:
well you should ;)

That's a feature of 0.11 the idea is to show all your sms, even when you receive one from sombedy you don't know yet.

I didn't imagine people have 20 sms from people/company they don't know ;)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] spinedoc:
Just installed 0.11

You fixed it when you slide to favorites! Very nice.

I'm having lots of problems though with SMS functions. Firstly anyone who has ever texted me, now PocketCM automatically puts them in my contacts list. Is there a way to shut this off?

Second I am getting a number next to my contacts in the contact list denoting the SMS messages they have sent me, I am assuming. I say assuming because the count is not right, either for new SMS or any SMS. Can we just completely get rid of that number?

Tene I think like you made the keyboard seperate, you should consider making the SMS program seperate. I can definitely live without it. But I cannot live without your contacts program.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] paranoid2007:
Very nice improvement with the new sms features. However, I don't quite get, why you have to mark the sms as read in the sms threader. It would be much easier to have new sms marked as read when selected from the contacts list. The second step seems unnecessary.

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] paranoid2007:
Two other things, I noticed about v0.11b:

The idea of having unknown numbers appear in the contact list, is great. However, if you have many unassigned contacts, the top of the list is completely littered with numbers. I would prefer a more unobtrusive place for unassigned numbers to be stored (maybe at the bottom of the list or selectable via the filter window).

Also, it would be great, if unknown numbers could be copied to clipboard, so that you can add them to existing contacts (e.g. if someone sends you their new phone number by sms).
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tene:
Things to try: set contact_sort_expression=ZZZ%fileas it should make the unknown contact appear on bottom.

Well I'd like to add an option below Add Contact to add number to existing contact, but it didn't make it for 0.11.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] anheuer:
I am very sorry if these questions are already asked and answered.

or even if it is a stupid question.

1.

I now have a lot of contacts.

if i were to install this program, will i have to enter them all over again in the cm program?

Or is there a button to transer them, will it automatisch copy them or will it just use the existing ones and just make it look different?

Also, does is have all the field you can enter just like on the standerd contact manager ?

2.

and i read something about the favorites?

does this mean that i cant use the contact side of the cube?

( i have a HTC Touch by the way)

and last but not least

3.

is it easy to uninstall if i wont like it, with out losing contacts of sms messages or anything els?

I thank you very much in advanced..

v0.11b - Cache updates in a strange way?

Hi!

First of all, congratulations for your program! It's really a joy to use! :)

Just a little issue with the cache. When I start it for the first time (nothing cached) it's a bit slow before all the contacts get loaded and then it's fine.

If I close it and open it again, the cache seems to work OK and opens all the contacts really quick the this time,

BUT...

If I repeat the close/open procedure it's like as if the cache is gone!!! I have to wait until all the contacts load again to get a nice smooth scroll!

BTW, it seems to happen every other time if I continue trying the same...

Cheers,

Dan
