Only standard keyboard SIP displaying

Even though I have loaded Pocketkeyboard, PocketCM only displays the standard SIP keyboard when typing SMS. Pcoketkeyboard set as default and comes up in other apps.

Using all latest Versions and have power cycled device off & back on but no change.

Is this a bug?

Regards,

k-c

PS Thanks for the great apps tene.

PPS Not sure if it makes any difference but running on HTC TyTN II. On TyTn Pocketkeyboard displays just fine.

I love .14 but the way the call button works is far from perfect. I also have trouble getting to the settings because of the Touch cube. I would also like ti very much to have a button for closing or minimising the app. I know I can use the call button but that's not a real pretty solution.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] anheuer:
is it me or when i start pocketcm up, it takes longer to start up the first time then it used to do befor version .14?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] mthomas:
edit settings.ini

what program is used to edit this?

Can settings be edited directly on the device?

With regards to the touch theme, which I really like by the way: From a usability point of view, ie driving and using pocketcm, I think the font in the contacts is great, but the font when scrolling through the alphabet needs to be larger like in the iphone theme.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Ixtana_ran:
" ie driving and using pocketcm,"

Don't you spill your beer whilst doing that.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Bellfazar:
Great new version tene. You fixed pretty much everything that needed to be fixed and I love the inclusion of a theme selector. It's so much easier than closing the app and reopening it.

Edit: I'm batting 0 for 2 today. I answered both of my questions.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] delude:
Thanks tene, I love this version. One thing I don't quite get is the little contacts icon to the very left when you hold your finger on the phone icon. From what I have found out, it changes the 'contact' shortcut on the today screen to the normal contacts app, but it doens't change back. What is it meant to do? In order to get PocketCM back as the shortcut I need to either change the registry, or reinstall the cab.

Thanks
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tene:
you simply need to close the legacy contact application... not just hide it.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Bellfazar:
I have a quick question tene. I moved the back button using close_button_box assuming that it would only move it on the contact detail screen. Unfortunately it also moved it on the SMS screen which makes it difficult to actually send an SMS as the location I moved the back button to is in the same place as the Send button. Is there any way to either: A, move the Send button or B, have the close_button_box work only for the contact details?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] freeyayo50:
The send button DOES work. You have to hold it down for about 2 sec. That's how it is suppose to work.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Cobra2:
Hey Tene

Another GREAT v., until now NO buggs at ALL....

Ps:

Love the new feature, the smooth stop when scorrlin down and up the contacts :D :D :D :D
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] promona:
starting the 0.14b touch crached

0.13 works o.k. after i start it up it takes a few seconds befor pocketcm is there

when i install the 0.14b it looked like the htc touch crached. but the touch doesn't react for 4 minutes and then pocketcm is there. I have more then 400 names and adresses.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] macguffin:
this just gets better and better.

Future feature request:

Would it be possible to have a button (maybe in the drop down menu)that runs the built in spell check on a sms?

Just a thought.

Cheers
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] droeun:
Nice work Tene, I never used the older versions because of a few bugs but this one is the very solid so I'm keeping it installed. When clicking on the phone icon & using the numerical pad to search for contacts is there any way to erase? I also noticed if contacts was launched from the dialpad and then both the contacts window and dialpad window are x'd out pocketcm reappears. Not sure if it's a bug or an issue with the ROM - I'm running Satin Full. As always thanks for your awesome work =]
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] bowlopho:
pocketcm takes so long to load up.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] droeun:
Yeah but once it starts up and stays running in the background it's ok.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Utakos:
Will there be a version that works on a non phone PDA, like the axim x51v, the softwase looks great.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] eihcir90:
Yeah it takes soo long. (3 minutes for me)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] spinedoc:
HUGE improvement over .13, wow, great work! I'm almost ready to switch from the older versions, but not quite.

-SMS, there are a lot of people asking for the SMS to be a separate program, at least a couple every forum page. Of course I understand if you keep it the way you like it, it's your program, but if you want feedback there is a lot of us who would prefer to have the option to install or not install the SMS portion.

-In the same topic, why do contacts who have sent me SMS have a number next to them for their messages, even though I have read them? I would love to be able to get rid of them without having to completely delete my messages. If I have read a SMS it should not show up as a number next to the contact.

-Still no option to change default SMS phone number.

-Awesome effort with the bottom buttons. I don't like them and still find them redundant, but I super appreciate the effort to make them smaller and unobtrusive. I especially love the return of the favorites button!!! I still don't get the dialpad, or don't all WM5/WM6 phones have a built in smartdialer? Maybe replace the dialpad button with a hide button.

-Soft buttons!!!!!!!!!! I miss the soft buttons, especially favorites (although for now I can deal with the favorites button), and HIDE!! I know you can use the phone end key, but I miss the old versions with no bottom buttons, and only soft buttons for fav/hide.

-Contact page, seems like the gray box surrounding the contact pic is too large as it cuts off the first number if you have 5 slots in that contacts info.

If you don't do anything else, the only things I can ask for are to make the SMS program separate, and to have an option to NOT have the bottom buttons.

.14 is excellent otherwise though, very polished. I almost switched to it, and look forward to future versions. Thanks so much for the hard work!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] snorlax:
3 minutes ???? It takes 5sec to be displayed (but a little bit longer to display all contact's images) with my 500 contacts on my Trinity. How many contacts do you have for 3 minutes ?????
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tene:
That's not easy as that technically. For me they are two important and dependant feature.

It just give you one more info: how many SMS you got from the guy.

?

It's like any feature a tradeoff. I don't see a compromise in your proposition.

What difference does it makes? you just have four softbuttons, instead of 2.

You should digg into theming and settings.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Olioaglio:
tene is right, you are able to customize ALL graphical elements, colours and sizes of objects in the theme itself. Just dig in settings.ini and photoshop and you are able to create a theme with meets your likings most :p

Or search and find a theme that meets your mind like maybe MINE :D :D

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Carnivor:
Tene, can i req a feature request?

Im on a g900 which dosent have the best gfx drivers atm (goforce 5500 chip and no go) ive made a theme for the WVGA and added me links on the PCM site,

http://myg900.com/index.php?s=&showtopic=196&view=findpost&p=2808

I've attached my progress on the theme so far, just rename the zip back to cmt

most of the skin is working apart from the sip hangs off the bottom of the screen, but ive read your working on that still.

but the 1 thing, the 1 thing that niggles me is the fade to black when dialling a contact or pressing and holding a contact to edit the phone number, it seriously takes 2/3 seconds to fade.

Is there a possibility that we can choose the fade/swipe in effect using the settings.ini?

Its only the fade to black thats really an issue on performance the side swipes are good, and even the fountain type one when pressing the filter button is ok, but the fade to black is a real grinder.

Thanks in advance!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] spinedoc:
Thanks Tene for the response. I played around with .14 last night and like it more and more.

To clarify the feature request to change the default SMS number, it seems that PocketCM automatically uses the mobile number as the SMS number. That presents a problem for me.

I prepend my mobile numbers to certain people with *82 to turn off private calling, so they can see who is calling. But using this prepend in a SMS breaks the SMS. So if a mobile number for a contact is *82-xxx-xxx-xxxx then pocket CM uses that for the SMS number.

My feature request is to have an option to choose another number that PocketCM designates as the SMS number, one I have listed without the prepend. My vote is still to separate the SMS program, but in the absence of this at least being able to change the default number would be nice.

Also in the contact page it's not so much the numbers are cut off if you have many numbers, it's that the numbers list starts somewhere in the middle, so the top most important numbers get hidden behind the contact grey box/picture. I'm not sure how to correct that in the theme.

Thanks again, this really really is a great version.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] spinedoc:
Just saw a couple other things I REALLY like! The theme picker is awesome! Also the settings are super nice, especially the ability to leave fullscreen.

Wow tene you really put a lot of work into this version.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] eihcir90:
I only have around 400 contacts. Do you think i installed it wrong or something. When i click "Contacts" on the bottom right, PocketCM comes up on the top and basically freezes up my Wing. I cant do anything until it loads up and that usually take 3 minutes.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tene:
Do you have unread SMS while starting up pcm?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Trekvogel:
I agree with that. Great program though.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Cobra2:
Hay Tene

GREAT Work No bugs at all in .14 have been testin for a couple of day now :D

Hearin people talkin about a seperate sms and contact from each other, I think U HAVE done one of the most LEET Funktions in ONE GREAT progie and I LOVE to handle both my SMS and Contacts from the same progie..

GoNNA say, U really have KICKED MS's A.. so far there never EVER comes near ur Greatest APP for the MS 5, 6 EVER

KEep Up This Wonderfull WOrk
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Carnivor:
Yep, they have to stay together, maybe even add other functions in such as appointments/tasks, one configurable app that does the whole suite would be very peachy
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] freakflow:
One quick suggestion, would you be able to add an option to give you the choice of either tapping the phone button and choosing a course of action or holding the phone button then sliding to the course of action you want to take?

I'm suggesting this because I'm using a touch and whenever I hold the phone button and slide up, the touch would recognize it as bringing up the 3D cube.

Thanks!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Carnivor:
Tene any thoughts on caller id? i searched the thread and couldnt see anything defined on it, i figure something similar to the details page of the contact calling but with answer and hangup buttons.

Lovin this app!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Xen:
Overall very good work but... found one strange behavior.

In my case 0.14 ignores settings.ini file which worked in 0.13.

Just copied 0.14 files over 0.13 in \Program Files\PocketCM\ folder.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] illcaptive:
i really like how 14 works it seems almost flawless to me. the only thing i liked to add to this one is on the new sms to have a bar that separates the new and old sms like on 13 not just the numbered count. otherwise everything is awesome.

ill
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] freeyayo50:
I agree. I suggest you get rid of the keypad. I never use it...there is no backspace option if you make a mistake and input a wrong number.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] anheuer:
I agree,

I never use it aswell,

Backspace is missing,

and i have all my numbers with +31...... for when i leave the country, so the + is missing alwell.

Is there not something more usefull for that button?

And i still dont like the minimize button in the upper right screen.

i have to be in the top of every screen to use it or els i will also open a contact or add a new contact.

maybe move it or adjust it so its more easy to use at all times?

Everything els is just great!!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] hellonasty:
This application is very slow to start.

when i push contact button, wait 10 seconds to start.

Any idea?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] gogol:
Maybe, an option to NOT use the built-in Pocket CM "Keypad" will be good.

I for one would like to use the DEFAULT Phone Pad when calling from contact.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Cobra2:
Now u have the option to press the phone buttom down to the right and the program will minimaize .....
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Cobra2:
It's couse u close it, it never ment to be closed, let it run in the background and woilla... U close the program then it's a very normal behaviar to take longer time to open
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Cobra2:
I got over 1200 contacts in my phone book, and 2 start with i did'nt use the keyboard, but when time went on i catch my self usein it more and more :)

But a backspace buttom will be nice, it'll ease alot if u mistype a letter....
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] hellonasty:
Thanks........ :D
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] curious george:
Tene,

I love the latest version. Man you are awesome!!! I am running it on a cingular 8125 (Wizard) and it is awesome.

I have 2 question/enhancements, and 1 that maybe you could direct me toward.

--Can you make and option in your program to dial the number I enter in the dial pad should the contact I am searching for not appear?

--Will you give the codes for direct access to the sms threader etc? I would like to assign it to the mail icon on my today screen.

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

--Could you direct me to someone who has a "backbutton" program I could install and place on my 8125? I have asked all over this site but not gotten even so much as a response let alone a yes/no/not possible??

Thanks,

CG
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Ncruze:
Excuse me Tene

Love this application
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] M.A.S.:
Hi tene,

I'm having a little problem with this new version (v.14b).

Look what's happening when I try to send a SMS:

I'm using the iPhone skin - keyboard (http://pocketcm.com/phorum/read.php?14,4783) and PocketCM

..with v.13 everything was working fine.

Thanks for any help, and congrats for this amazing program.

;)

(as always = sorry my bad english)

---

EDIT:

I made some tests and I think that the problem are in the new PCM Keyboard (v.10)

With:

1. PocketCM v.14b AND PCM Keyboard v.10 = BUG

2. PocketCM v.14b AND PCM Keyboard v.9b = NO PROBLEM (just a lag to open the program)

3. PocketCM v.13 AND PCM Keyboard v.9b = NO PROBLEM (little fast start)

4. PocketCM v.13 AND PCM Keyboard v.10 = BUG

:(
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Bazzz66:
version of PocketCM

Hi guys, short question.

I installed PocketCM a while ago, how can I check which version I have 0.13 or 0.14??

Tnx
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Cobra2:
Press the phone buttom, down to the right, slide over to option, and about... That should give u the info ...
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Bazzz66:
I do not have a phone button on the bottom, only the WM05 buttons (Favorites / Keyboard icon / Hide)??
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Cobra2:
Then U are defently usin an older version 0.11 or older, try download one of the versions newer then 0.11, i prefer 0.14 works Great for me.....
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Olioaglio:
Hi,

have you tried THIS SKIN ?

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tene:
0.10 keyboard use another approach for handling landscape/portrait rotation which is not compatible with the way contact 0.14 handle the SIP.

This is fixed in pcm contacts 0.15. In the meantime, it seems to works one time over 2. Sorry for the inconvenience.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] dustobub:
I am running PocketCM .14 and Pocket Keyboard .10 on a HTC Mogul WM6.

Current Bugs:

-Much slower transition to landscape when sliding the keyboard out compared to .13

-Graphical Glitch in landscape mode where the letter "z" is, along the entire row. Present in .13 as well

-The No-SIP option is not persistent after closing pocketcm and reopening. (Edit, this is no longer an issue, apparently exiting and reopening made it persistant)

-When using a SIP, sometimes the text box is two rows, sometimes one row, sometimes much larger, but only shows two rows of text.

Requests:

-Config option to turn of SMS interceptor, rather than relying on modifing the file.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tene:
Improved in 0.15

Fixed in 0.15

Can't reproduce, can you double check?

Which SIP? If it's pcm keyboard, it should be also fixed in 0.15

I invite you to read: http://pocketcm.com/phorum/read.php?8,174 in the new settings for 0.14.

... by the way 0.15 is up
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] damac:
First off, I just love the combination of these two (PocketCM and PCM keyboard), Many thanks Tene. This brings me to my request...

Request:

Is it possible to have adding of a new contact in the same interface as the rest of the PocketCM? Just don't like to go back to the normal interface for adding contacts.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Carnivor:
WOW, blinding update!!! v15 is nice and speedy!!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tene:
Would be nice he ;)

Like for all feature request, show me some support, the more donation I get, the more likely to get more feature... and this one is a big one.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Olioaglio:
Wow, again nice speed improvements and bug fixes!!

You really rock tene....

Olioaglio
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] damac:
Absolutely. You deserve it :)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] malatesta:
Yup, huge differences! It gets better every time...
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] itzwolf:
.15 already? dang it's like I get a birthday gift every time I get home from work and check the forums, thats awesome ;)

So far so good using 0.15 for me. It seems MUCH faster than .14 and the landscape transition is definitely improved. Great work tene!

Only thing I have noticed so far is the indicator on the letters for where in the contact list you are reads the top most contact. For me this is T so it doesn't actual go down to V, W, or Z for which I have a few contacts. Not sure if this is by design or not but figured I would mention it.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] M.A.S.:
WOW....very fast startup time.

No more bug with SMS function.

Thanks a lot.

;)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] DJ_Nitro:
Thanks for bringing back the slide to favorites feature. :D

Quick suggestion, It would be nice to have the option to backspace in the phonepad feature, when one makes a mistake it's hard to fix it, same happens when confirming or editing the number after tap and hold on a contact. :p

Thanks for the great app! :D
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Ragart:
Love the new version, thanks tene!!!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] johnny88:
Very fast (I hope it will be faster soon!:) )

Only 1 bug:

Writing an SMS the window space dedicated to the on screen keyboard is not 100% compatible with PCM Keyboad 0.9b (the first line is cutted in the middle so it's impossible to use the first line keys)

I am sure is it easy for you to fix ;)

Thank you!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] curious george:
WOW!!!!

Great and absolutely awesome. You have out done yourself again!!! I couldn't help but donate a few minutes ago and sitting here typing I am feeling the need to again. This is great Tene!!

Tene, in regards to this:

I don't know if I need a little instruction on how to use the dial feature or if it has a bug but i get this same issue. I hold down on a contact in list to call. And as long as I want to call the number that comes up great. But I have no back spack key to quickly edit the numbe if I choose. Could you add one or tell me where it is?

Next, what about from list view, after pressing the programs phone button to get the "search by dial pad", if we enter a number here we could call directly??? Let me know if I don't make since. Thanks

CG
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] dutchman71:
Excellent version!! Settings.ini works again.

How about this feature request: hyperlinking urls in a SMS message. When I get picture mail Sprint sends me a SMS with the hyperlink to the picture. Now I have to go to the WM sms app to be able to click on the hyperlink and see the webpage with the picture mail. Hope that makes any sense...
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] dustobub:
Thanks for letting me know about the settings.ini, works great.

Version .15 is still slow to transition to landscape and back to portrait, taking about 4 seconds every time on a freshly soft reset HTC Mogul/Titan. It does seem noticeably slower than version .13, which took about one second less.

Also, just noticed, the holding the contacts name to place a call takes me to the page with the number and the dialpad, but when I hit call, it just takes me back to the main contact screen without placing the call.

I made pocketcm very unhappy when I switched to landscape mode when on the dial screen, I lost the "call" and "cancel" buttons and the numbers stopped working, had to kill pocketcm, switching back to portrait did not help. The exact outcome is not 100% reproducible, but it always hangs pocketcm.

Oh, and a backspace would be nice to have on the dialpad in case of a mistake. I remember seeing someone else mention this.

Keep up the great work, things are coming along very nicely.

Dustin
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tene:
Thanks, I appreciate. I hope more people will do the same so PCMC will stay free (the good news for you is that with your donation, no matter what, you'll still be able to use it)

Actually it was planned for 0.15... but I've made some important fixes (SMS freeze, PCMK 0.10 support), so I decided to rush the release. The thing is that's not so straightforward to implement.

Regarding switching to landscape, it's technically faster than 0.13 (and 0.14). Based on my device. You have to remember that switching require PCM to reload the theme, which takes about 4 seconds on my devices (and took about 8 seconds with 0.14).
