Couple of bugs

I noticed a couple of bugs that I don't know if anybody else has:

- I have about 200 SMS from and 142 to one contact (my girlfriend) but PCM doesnt' show all of them (it shows a total of 199 SMS and the list is not complete)

- One of that SMS (that I sent to my girl) appears in another contact (a Blank one on top of the contacts) together with another SMS I got from my operator when I went to London. Very strange.

- When I slide the SMS, the slide doesn't continue when I left the finger (as it happens for the contacts). So this is very hard to get on top of the list. I know that this will not happen frequently.

I have a question again,

Sinds i use this manager, when i open a program and i press the button on top of my touch to turn off the screen.

And then press it again to turn on the screen, the program is there but then quickly closes (minimize).

For instands,... i get a sms, i press the button, i see pocketcm is already open,

i want to press on the receved sms but the cm is already minimizing.

so i have to open the cm again and then press on the sms to view it.

This now happends with all the programs not just with the manager.

Not a big deal, but gets annoying sometimes

I found two bugs...

When i get a sms the sender is shown on the top of the contact list. so far so GOOD, BUT also when the message is read the contacvt is on the top of the list and i'm not able to call him or make notes or something like that. the only solution for this is to really CLOSE the program.

Another little bug appears in the sms menu! scrolling through old messages warps the letter counter (160/160)

but still the program gets better and better

keep working so good

Thanks
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Andre Koster:
I concur, although I didn't count the messages, for sure PCM (0.11b) isn't showing me all of them. The oldest message of my 'favourite' contact ;) is 22 Aug, while in my SMS inbox it's 15 July. And there are a LOT of messages between those two dates. Note, messages of others in that period of time do show up. (So it's not that there's a cap on the history). For the record, PCM lists a number of 247 messages for the contact in question.

Minor annoyance is the formatting of the timestamp of messages. It's now default US and 24h notation. How about applying the device localisation?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Benne:
On my Prophet with WM6 pocketcm won't come to the fore if I receive an sms. I still get the windows notification. Should be nice to see directly the sms conversation.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] anheuer:
Something that might be nice to change is:

When i am in the contact list, and i press on one of the pictures right of the contact name, it selects the letter that is located on the left (the one to skip to a contact that starts with that letter)

Might be nice if the picture would be considerd as part of the contact name

now when i want to scroll and press on the picture it goes to the letter.

but its hard to see with letter it is anyway.

sorry if i explain it very difficult,

But i think you guys understand waht i mean.

Alex
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Marshall07:
The letter popup on the right of the screen is good for right-handed people (it is very difficult to reach the left side of the screen with your thumb if you use your device with one hand).

Marshall
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] anheuer:
ok, but can it be disabled/changed?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] toblo:
index_left_border_width=26
index_right_border_width=26

In the settings.ini, change one to 0 to disable.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] anheuer:
Thank you!!!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] AJerman:
Good idea, thanks.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] anheuer:
I found two more bugs..

1. When i start wml, it add's a view wml contacts in my pocketCM (i already got the settings.ini with the rule that it only shows contacts with number)

when i completely close pocketCM and open it again there's gone..

but this happens every time i use wml.

2. when i use wml, and i want to write an sms in pocketCM, it keeps pushing my keyboard down, so i cant type anything..

when i bring my keyboard up again, i can write about 1 or 2 words, and then it happens again.

and then a little question.... i am using the categories filter, but in my list of all the categories i can assign to contacts are a view (preprogrammed) that i want to remove, is this possible ? and if yes.. how??

thank you!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] anichillus:
Just wanted to say that this is a great app. I like it very much.

I also found unfortunately a...bug..i don't know.

It's WLM related too. My wlm contacts just vanished ...but i don't give a s#1t. I wanted to delete them anyway.

Other thing that happened once was that when entering a contact it would have a small space to the left ...like the whole picture moved to the right. Again..this happened once or twice...didn't bothered me at all...it may be my rom...who knows. I am sure that lot of bugs reported are not this program's fault.

QUESTION : How do i make the normal SMS to be replaced entirely by your program ?

Great application ...again ! :D
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] uniqueboy:
Hi Tene, I love your apps, this and keyboard, but as I play about I can't help thinking that the interface you have created here would also work perfectly with a calendar replacement, scrolling up and down through a month tap and a nice transition to the day view etc. It just seems a natural progression for your software, Are you already on it?

Thanks again for your great work.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] McHale:
Is there a way to use the contact list feature (which is unbelievable) but use the standard WM5 or WM6 contact once you select a contact? The PocketCM contact is missing too many valuable details.

Thanks!

-Mc
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] fasgiu:
me the same happens to me
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tene:
tap on the contact picture, then choose view.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tene:
as already said: workaround: mark the message as read from pcm

fixed in 0.12
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] samy.3660:
Hi tene,

I like your pocketCM very much,

In this version i did not like my sms to be showed on All Contacts filter.

It would be better if the SMS is showed in "Contacts with SMS" only and not in "All Contacts" filter.

Thanks for the great piece of software.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] McHale:
I meant without that step. I want to go straight to the default contact and avoid the PocketCM contact all together.

Thanks,

-Mc
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pjd:
At first - BIG thanks for this app...it's amazing.

I'm using the latest 0.11b - haven't found any bug that wasn't mentioned here.

the wish:

Can sending of message be confirmed? Ideally you can add it into settings and defalut SendMessageConfirm value should be 0 - so there will be no changes for others. But I would really like it because sometimes I have sent messeges by mistake when using PocketCM keyboard. It hapens to me for about 10 times to send unfinished sms - mostly in the morning. :D

For me as for delphi/php programmer seems this as a mini update and I would really appreciate this feature.

and again - thanks for your work...keep it going
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tene:

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] petervbeck:
wow, tene, do u ever sleep ? :D

Great work, would not miss your app on my phone!

cheers, Peter
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Anth:
Well.. I uninstalled v.11b and tried on this v.12, but it shown four 10mm x 10mm white square boxes at bottom without any wordings... very weird...

I gonna reinstall and see how it goes...

Edit : btw in the uninstall screen, I saw the version was v11, I guess u forget to change the application's version uh? :P

Edit2 : After redownload and reinstall, the results still same.

Anth
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pirlone:
same here: white square boxes at bottom, fully funkcional tho...

rgs,

pirlone
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tdaubign:
same for me ! sig !
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Anth:
when I loaded to user's detail page, the 4 boxes still there, but its not carring any function.

when I loaded to SMS page, there is a 0.5mmx0.5mm white box at top left corner (back), without any wordings as well...

btw, tene, I love this version's scrooling. Its so smooth :D

and the contact's name loading time improved as well. But, its still takes around 3-4 seconds to loads the photos after the list came out.

Anth
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tene:
stupid me.

wront theme.cmt

if you copy the one from the zip it should be a lot better.

I've also updated the cab, please give feedback
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] dutchman71:
same boxes here... How do I get the white theme you have in the screen shots on your homepage?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] kunz:
tene,

great app!

any chance of a dedicated SMS version? you seem to have a good eye for user-usability and i look forward to seeing more apps from you!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Anth:
Wow... the graphics shown as u expected :P Nice design!

Found a bug.

When I tab-ed the 'Main menu' (3rd tab), following by tabbing 'Favorites' or 'All Contacts'. It will triggles a bug where the sliding was black in color.

Anth
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Anth:
download again the cab file from tene's website. The new cab works.

Anth
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] phd48:
I just installed the updated 0.12, working good here. The first time I launched it I used the sort menu, then hit phone and when I came back the sort menu was stuck there (wouldn't go away no matter what I pressed). I closed the application with HTC X and relaunched it and haven't been able to reproduce. Looks like it's working good so far though.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tene:
Nice catch, will be fixed in next release.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Anth:
Edit : I'm good with bugs catching tho XD

2nd bug found.

When I switch off my pda with PCM closed(minimized) or onscreen, then turn the pda back on again, the 'Favorites' and 'All Contacts' tab will goes crazy (kept load to 'Main Menu' screen)

Anth
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tene:
can't reproduce
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] phd48:
Hm a couple things. Now that the application uses the entire screen, when using SMS in the text field, it causes the SIP to pop out automatically which is great in vert viewing mode, but when I slide out to use hardware keyboard the SIP still pops up which greatly limits vertical viewing space in horizontal mode. Also since it's in full screen, there seems to be no way to change which SIP to use. An option to hide/change the SIP from inside PocketCM would be great.

Also, when in horizontal mode, the four icons just get stretched out to fit the screen which doesn't look that good. Would it be possible to just have the regular size centered or to have a different set of icons for horizontal viewing mode?

Thanks!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tene:
Well for the icons, make them! I don't have more skill than you, and I'm stuck with free drawing application.

For the SIP, I saw it coming... what would be better:

- no keyboard in landscape (through a setting)?

- no keyboard at all?

- another button near the "send" for the keyboard?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] phd48:
I think no keyboard in landscape through a setting would work great.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pirlone:
...or

- tap&hold "send" for showing keyboard ;)

btw, here is (maybe already mentioned) bug:

tap filter icon

don't select any filter

tap any of all contacts or sms icon, you're always getting filter options

anyway, those icons in touch style are really nice 'touch' to your wonderfull app

rgs,

pirlone
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] kipe:
this is one sweet contact manager bro.. as always, great update for 0.12 version, keep it up..
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] pirlone:
here is another one:

i get an sms from unknown contact

when i'm looking at his sms's i have an option to add contact to my address book

by adding contact, i get standard pocket outlook screen

when i'm done, i return to pocketCM but it isn't fullscreen anymore (there is standard windows mobile top bar) and i'm loosing part of the bottom of pocketCM

the same thing is with editing contacts...

rgs,

pirlone
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] uniqueboy:
Nice update, works well, thankyou. It seems others are starting on a calendar app. But unless they use all the ideas from here it will not be good. Please Tene, you should be adapting this fantastic interface into other areas.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] dutchman71:
Very nice!! I like the new buttons.

I'm not so well versed in making changes but if someone could help me make the text on the contact screen white instead of light gray that would be great. It would make it easier to read in the bright day/sunlight.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Mistellisch:
what about really closing it?

Hi Tene, again an even greater release! Thank you once again!

Two things however: The phone-symbol (why a phone-symbol by the way?) in bottom right corner minimizes the programme, right? What about the people who'd like to really close the programme but can't as the top bar with the x isn't visible anymore? For me the loading procedure is short enough to always start it fresh and not occupy the 1.5 MB RAM while not using it. Any chance here?

The other thing is concerning the scrolldown-menu that appears when I press on the contact photo: less than a second afterwards the back-arrow overlays the menu. Just a minor graphical bug.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Cobra2:
Love the new icon set Tene, GREAT work as allways :D :D Kepp it up

I'am allso supportin uniqueboy's ide, sounds really great..

Allways folloin Ur Work TEnE :)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tene:
Minimizing the app still allow you to close it trough your favorite task manager

Reload the app everytime still takes more time than letting it memory, and doesn't allow SMS notification to show correctly.

The way memory management works in Windows Mobile is that you should let WM decide when to kill application. Not do it yourself!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Cobra2:
Hay Tene

I'am back with a couple of bugs :p

Every thing seems to be allright, but when i recived the first SMS on 0.12 it just craches :confused: I restarted my Artimes, and started Contact manager, I could still see a new SMS but can't get the sms panel in PCM to open, the cm 0.12 just restart ???

Any 1 had same issiu ???

Sry my bad eng ... I'll wait with 0.11 til the next version :(
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Trekvogel:
I like this release but there seems to be some overlap in graphics and stuff like that making it look less good than the last version that wasn't full screen. Also, I liked the two soft buttons at the bottom better than a send and a close button. Switching SIPs would be a nice addition.

One more thing: Why does it pop-up when you receive an sms? Can this be disabled? It's quite annoying then you do something else at that moment.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] mike3343:
Just my replacement for the phone icon...
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] dutchman71:
Is it just me or did the last couple of versions sort the contacts by last name, and not in v 12?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] xxza:
how to replace it? I can not find the close.bmp under program Files/PocketCM
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] mike3343:
Rename theme.cmt to theme.zip and then unzip it. You can then either rename the new icon to phone.bmp and replace the current one or leave the name and edit the settings ini. Just rezip the files and rename it back to theme.cmt.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] xxza:
thanks so much. :)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Cobra2:
Can any1 plz post the cab file for 0.11, just can't find it anywhere :confused: :confused:
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] xxza:
edit: 0.11 removed. sorry, tene.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Rcas:
anyway to get PCM to close when the close button is hit instead of going to the background?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Cobra2:
Great Thanx alot xxza :D :D
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tene:
What part of "Feel free to share it with anybody. BUT PLEASE DO NOT PUBLISH BINARY ON YOUR WEBSITE, link to mine. (And that includes: binary, zip, OEM version, cab remake, package, ROM.)." isn't clear enough to you?...

Please remove binary.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Cobra2:
Hay Tene

Not his fought, I request it, after I could'nt find it on Ur site :p

The SMS in 0.12 just ain't workin for, when I recive an sms it either freezze or crash :-(
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] DJ_Nitro:
Thanks Tene, as written before, the images are a nice touch, a lot of improvements in this release.

The scrolling is so smooth, perfect. :D

BTW, the problem with "View contact" still there, now a couple of empty boxes appear at the bottom of the screen.

SMS is better handled in this version.

I like the fact that the windows notifications shows up when a new SMS arrive, it gives you the option to call the sender, if you want to continue the conversation, just tap on PocketCM which focus as well, I don't know if this was meant to be that way, but I like it. :D

One thing, when you add the SMS sender to contacts this is not listed in the contact list right away, so one will have to close PocketCM and open it again.

Pretty well done!

I had the same problem, when sliding the finger from left to right or viceversa happens the same.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] DJ_Nitro:
Me again :p, I just realized that when you tap on the upper right corner (where the X is) the app minimizes itself, no matter where you are, when the app restores, it comes back to "All contacts", which is cool.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] dormido:
Does the switch in the ini file for fullscreen no longer work? As cool as the fullscren mode looks, I'd like to have the option to disable it.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tene:
try soft-rest

uninstall

check that \program files\pocketcm is empty (smsintercept.dll shouldn't be there)

reinstall, and please tell me.

Anyway, there http://www.pocketcm.com/olddl.php (accessible from download page) and I'm really tired of people uploading binaries... is it to ask to much? do I have to make it fully commercial so more people will call it piracy?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tene:
Not it's not.

Why disable it?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] dormido:
Because I have some concerns about the SIP acting retarded...
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tene:
Can you describe...?

Please for godsake remember it's beta: if you have issue with the SIP, describe the issue with the SIP... the purpose is to get things fixed... I didn't switched to fullscreen for fun, it has useful purpose, allow more screen space, allow 4 buttons instead of 2 softkeys and will even allow a lot more stuff later.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] sbp:
Hi thank you for the new version.

I like the new layout with the icons both in the top and in the bottom.

However, I still have some ideas/issues:

My problem is that if you receive unwanted SMS, they will complicate your pocketCM experience.

1. I don't like that CM still put new contacts into my contact list without my approval. They could come from your or other phone-company - when you travel, you usually receive these kind of SMS a lot.

2. I still would like to be able to delete some SMS, and also to delete these contact that PocketCM put into my contact list (I can't figure out how to delete these).

STeen
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tene:
I thought it was clear, but I'm wrong, let me try: You don't have new contact... it just show it as a virtual contact only in the SMS list. Think of it as a thread list. Nothing is added to your contact list. PocketCM doesn't change anything to your contact, expect when it's obvious:

- changing picture

- setting favorite

- deleting

for editing, it's still the good old windows mobile contacts app.

Of course you can't delete them, they don't exist... it would be like removing the "<new contact>" contact.

Regarding SMS deletion, for now you'll have to use your favorite SMS application.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Cobra2:
Hay Tene

Just tried what u described upbove...

Deletet PocketCm folder from the program files, and installed it, but still whaen i recive an SMS it open the Pcm into the Contact with SMS, and Freezes there, Can't open the new SMS, and can't even scroll the contacts with SMS ??

After a delay about 2 min, where it just hang with contact with SMS, everything seems 2 work again.... But not handy with that 2 min, delay where it just HAngs, before u can read the new SMS
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] dutchman71:
Time to take a break and have some Stellas or Hoegaardens Tene... ;)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] dormido:
It's mostly just paranoia; I haven't experienced any problems thus far. However, the default WM word suggestion panel is covered by PCMKeyboardv0.7. I can see the top of the word suggestion panel peeking up from behind the keyboard.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] contentryder:
just having problems with sms..when pressing on a msg, it makes it unread and lags the phone a little...maybe next release can manage sms like delete some?

what does the phone button in pocketCM actually do? it just minimizes pocketCM from what i see so far..

overall..pretty nice update from .11b and quicker! =)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] amanakbar:
i find this as a problem, i ended up minimizing pocketCM when i actually want to choose the index letter 'A' or 'B'
