Close Button

i agree a close button would be great.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] theduke81:
In the init option file, you can tell icontact to close it self when you press top right corner.

I have a HTC diamond too and it still that does not work for VGA screen.

Is there somewhere that we can modify ourself to make it compatible with VGA screen ? or do we have full skill in C?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] spupuz:
need vga support pls
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] l3v5y:
Tapping anywhere on the top bar will minimize/close it.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] l3v5y:
The problem with that is it will just make the program lareg, and memory intensive.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] grzenio01:
what about VGA support? :(
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] l3v5y:
That's been mentioned a lot. I'd guess supbro is aware of it, and so just saying "VGA support" probably will not change anything. Just wait, and I'm sure supbro will do something!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] VictorC666:
Hello supbro and thanks for new version, well as i mentioned before:

and other guys too:

still same problem in 0.75 no contacts in favorities tab :(
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] nir36:
supbro

Speed is unbelievable. smooth as a baby's bottom.

Sensitivity is fixed. no need to chase anything.

Markings for favourites and missed calls are right in place.

besides the config proggy which you said you'll add in the next version

I still think that you should take truburt's idea for missed calls/incoming/outgoing... that when you click the button it changes from one to another.

great job.. :)

thanks so much for that.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] lsherif:
Supbro,

Also favourites needs to include & show all kinds of favourites like business, freinds, relatives etc.... as the Burt`s edition.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Moe5508:
Fantastic update - thanks for this!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] emay:
Great software!. Just one tiny remark: long contact names (> 20 char?) hide the time of call in the call log.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] lvjian123ok:
I think most of people will install it on memory card .And we can let it use sms _chat when we have installed sms chat ,other while not .
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Agamemmnon:
This is by the German translate the same!

I have the first field "categoriesField=Categories" not translatet than Works the favorite page,try it!

greets Agamemmnon
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Trekvogel:
Great update as usual! I'm especially happy with the changed screen sensitivity.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Ramsey:
I love this program, my favorite contact program.

But the scrolling is becoming worser by each update. It was great in the beginning, not too fast, not too slow.

The problem is this :

When I drag and I stop while holding, then when I release, it just keeps going for no reason, it doesn't stop where I want it.

Try it..

Drag and stop somewhere, then release after a second.

I really hope you can fix that brother :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] gotobigo:
postal address in details...

Thank you so much for this update. Now tapping works great. I can handle everything singlehanded with the thumb.

It would be even better if the postal address would show up in the contact details.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Jimllfixit:
I am having problems changing the settigs folder to accept my e-mail address, what is the easiest process to do this?

i cant open the settings file within my device, is there an app to do this?

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] jasonfilmfan:
Thanks, I am really liking this program. Is there any plan to implement catagory search. I know bert edition does, but I like the changes you made. I am hoping to use this version. Thanks
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] digidigi123:
Thanks supbro for the new version, all works fine. Donations is on the way.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] supbro:
For some stupid reason, Microsoft decided to make it difficult to load the company phone number; it's different than all the other numbers. I still haven't figured it out.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] supbro:
The reason for this is the physics and the screen and CPU limitations. It calculates the list speed based on how much you scrolled with your finger and the amount of time it took you to scroll that distance (velocity = distance / time). Not only does this display the error you mentioned, but also if you click and hold for a long while, and then move suddenly and release, it will move very slowly.

If someone can suggest how to calculate the "correct" speed based upon the data available, I will be happy to update it.

This is the data available:

mouse down time & position

several (but not all) mouse move time & position

mouse up time & position
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] WildSioux:
Forgive me, but what/where is the "threaded SMS?" I am missing something here...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] supbro:
iContact does not display SMS, it only allows you to compose one to one of your contacts.

"Threaded" refers to the call logs, if you have duplicate call logs, it compresses them into one list entry, displayed in the following as Gates, Bill [2] meaning the previous 2 calls were both to Bill Gates:
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] jkrj524:
Thank you for this excellent program. So far, this version is really working well on my device. Thanks for sharing.

For us crazy folks that flash new ROMs all the time.. where are the settings stored for the Favorites? (so that I can copy that info for restore after flashing a new ROM)

thanks!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] johnnychimpo:
Thanks for all the work btw!

Is it possible to list contacts by groups? If not could that feature be implemented?

I have several contacts that are in specific groups like work, friends, family, etc

Thanks
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] supbro:
It's stored in the contacts themselves, under "categories".
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] supbro:
Yeah, that's on the Wish List.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] LoriInWa:
How? I have two contacts I want to delete. I just cleared them and now I have two <unnamed contact> and I really want to know how to get rid of it!! Thanks!!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Zenoran:
iContact 0.75 is FLAWLESS perfection. Thanks for fixing the clicky TXT or CALL on a contact... .74 was my first version of this program I've ever tried and I thought I was going nutty trying to click those dang things.. hehe.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] WildSioux:
Thanks subpro. I saw threaded and was thinking sms. duh...

Also, while viewing a contact. The "Show Summary" Is it possible to make that go to the iContact threaded view instead of the WM6 interface?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] garyb01:
Thanks for an amazing program and for the effort! Has really made the conversion from a Symbian phone to a Touch screen Win mobile one (Which in its own takes some doing :o) a lot easier, so thanks once again.

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] yang78:
Thank you

I know,but v0.74 work well when translate categoriesField=Categories to chinese
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] nir36:
the thing is, that iContact is a very very very light program. adding SIM contacts, SMS threading and all kinds of others things might make it heavy. to my knowledge threaded smsing is not light programming.. iContact's loading time is funny... it takes it about one second of my TC to load.. and the scrolling is flawless even tho i have a lot of contacts. obviously some features are more important to some people than to others.. but remember that all HEAVY stuff should be left out so that you can still enjoy the lightness. i can honestly say that from all the 1000 programs i've tried during the last year or so... this is BY FAR the smoothest.

i pledged to donate to one software i use every month. time has come for supbro's flawless work.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] nir36:
my bad... ignore.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] im1badazchick:
Thanks Supbro....i absolutely love this new version...it's sooo smooth and fast...it loads really fast..no delays at all and everything is flawless for me...scrolling, touch sensitivity...excellent work:D
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] jkrj524:
Subpro this is an amazing version. Fast loading. extremely smooth when you scroll and very stable. You've incorporated almost all the requests and fixed the known bugs. I truly applaud you. Thanks for sharing.

Crashes Biotouch

Great app, but when i select contacts from the biotouch cube it opens icontact. Then when i open the cube again my phone freezes and i have to soft reset.

Any ideas?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] supbro:
Thanks, and you're exactly right. I would like it to remain as lightweight and simple as possible, that's why I'm not implementing every feature under the sun.

Those looking for a more complex UI with more features could look at the nice work that truburt is doing in this thread, or take the source code and add your own features! I'd probably add my own features if this were written by somebody else :)

Details Screen

Hi,

first thank you very much for your excellent work!

But since 0,74 (0.75 ...) i dont like the look of the details-pages. The rounded boxes fits not to the whole style.

Can you make the details-pages more like this:

http://iwindowsmobile.com/images/fun_screen_04_04big.jpg

I think, this looks more professional.

Greetings

nick
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] sinoo:
Just one small idea:

Is there a way to make the details pages of the contacts look always the same? So that contacts, that do not have a picture are also shown the way it's done for contacts with picture? Someting like a unknown pic like it's used in S2U2?!

By now it is still the best app I used so far! Thanks for that!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] VictorC666:
So it realy seems like a bug in "FavoriteCategory" (when it is translated) since v0.74 up

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] prscott1:
Hi, great application! I stumbled onto this thread today.

Does the icontact.exe accept command line parameters to drill down to a specific contact? I searched through this thread but didn't find the answer. I apologize if this is a duplicate question.

For example,

run( "\windows\icontact.exe", "-open contact name" )

Are there any parameters allowed?

TIA!

Hi,

i have a problem to change the language.

I have installed icontact 0.75 and i have download the german.lng from the homepage. Then I copy this file in them main directory of icontact, but nothing happend. Then i killed the english.lng, reboot icontact and my Polaris, nothing happend again.

Can everybody help me?

THX

RWErene81
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] emay:
In the icontact directory you'll find a settings.ini In this file you should change the language entry to german
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] sinoo:
There are two options:

1. Rename the german.lng in english.lng

2. Edit the settings.ini at the last point and change english to german

You were faster than me! ;-)

Thanks and suggestions

Subpro thank you for this. It is great and from now on it is on my must install list.

Few suggestions if I may:

1. It might be just me but half the time I try to close iContact by clicking top right, it ends up trying to add a new contact and it is very annoying. Can you please move the plus button somewhere else (top left maybe?)

2. On the Recents tab, can you have an icon for each item showing if it is a Missed call, Incoming call or Outgoing? I think that would be very helpful. Right now I dont know if it is Incoming or Outgoing before clicking on it.

3. Clicking Recents sometimes crashes. Sorry I cant give you more details. But basically what happens is, it first shows nothing and becomes unresponsive as if it is trying to load something. After a while when you try to do something, screen completely goes blank and I have to soft reset the device.

4. When you click recents or contact it shows an empty screen while loading (I have more than 300 contacts). Actually I am ok with the wait time (around 3-4 seconds usually). But if it is not too much work can you please show an hourglass icon or even better a progress bar? An unresponsive device which I dont know what it is doing always makes me nervous.

And again thank you for this great application.

Titlebar and Scrollbar difficult to click

Supbro,

I'd like to suggest making the titlebar and scrollbar (for scrolling by letter groups) a bit bigger regarding the clickable area, as they're not as Finger Friendly as the rest of the interface.

I've added 6 pixels to the titlebar, changing on DoLButtonUp function:

else if (PtInRect(&rTitlebar, ptMouseDown) && PtInRect(&rTitlebar, pt)) {

to:

else if ((pt.y <= rTitlebar.bottom + 6) && (ptMouseDown.y <= rTitlebar.bottom + 6)) {

And the scrollbar, changing on OnLButtonDown function:

&& LastX > rList.right - 20

to:

&& LastX > rList.right - 30

I got nice results after some trial and error for sizes. I think maybe others would enjoy that too...

BTW, please keep the updates coming, 'cause iContact is for sure the best CM application around..

Thanks!!

shmilson

your update looks great!

use with WM 2003

May be I am wrong (I hope) but I think it's not possible because even WM5 and WM6 non phone PDAs cant't use it
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] fredamexis:
but maybe we could use it. Just ompilling to w2003 platform or with the right libraries... just a thougt..

Recent Phone Calls view crashes

Hey guys I'm new to iContacts, but I just installed it (v. 0.75) and like made a call and then went to recent calls (the 2nd tab) (tab after favorites) and no calls or anything shows up except the title "recent" and then when i click in the blank area, it just brings me back to my today screen...

Any suggestions? I even uninstalled and reinstalled.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] eyecrispy:
I have a similar problem. I go into iContact into the recent calls screen. The first time it loads is fine. Then I touch the icon again and the screen goes black and nothing loads. I have to soft reset.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] heraklis:
Hi,

use HTC Orbit with aprox 4.000 contacts. Have aprox. 14MB memory left.

iContact starts up and terminates without any information after some seconds.

Anyone an idea?

Thanks
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] frederikk:
Works fine on a p3300.

Perhaps just something missing : cannot delete a contact.

Moreover, the favorites stay empty...

But the basic process works fine !

Ciao

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] wschom:
It is quick and looks nice on VGA.

Anyone know how to adjust this for a VGA screen so that the selection areas are bigger?

I was able to duplicate the issue with it exiting. I also can get it to become unresponsive. Not a big issue to me as I just kill the task and restart it again. It is quick enough to do this easily.

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] rwertz14:
Give it about 7 to 10 seconds for all the calls to load. It is complining all missed, outgoing and incoming calls and it usually takes about 5 to 7 seconds to populate all the recent calls.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] eyecrispy:
Nope. It's not lack of patience that's the issue. For me, the second time I load recent calls never returns anything.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] SlimDan22:
Does anyone know if there is anyway to turn off the missed call highlight feature??

is there something i can add to the .ini file or mess with the theme settings?

its like most of my contacts are yellow and i delete all the missed calls out of my call history and then reset the phone

still shows up....
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] nightfear:
Why don't you make a option menu so that we can customize the settings.ini from the icontacts and not from notepad?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] darebak666:
yep, same for me.. first time it takes about 2-3 sec to load the history, but second time I tap the recent calls, the app freezes and I need to terminate it..:mad:
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] sinoo:
Yellow is not the color for your missed calls, it's the color that highlights your favorites!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] WildSioux:
^ ++ That would be nice like how ThumbCal does it.

Also, I don't know if this is a bug or not. But I have it set to close after a call. When I make a call from my favorites list it closes like it is supposed to. But when I go back in to icontact, it is showing the person I just called from my favorite list instead of the full contact list. Any way to make it close and default back to the contact list?

One more feature request...under viewing a contact, tapping on "Show Summary" brings you to the WM interface. Is it possible to make that go to the iContact threaded view (call history) instead of the WM interface? It just seems out of place to leave icontact to see what is already there...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] rwertz14:
I just tested it on my phone, and the same thing happened to me as well. I had never tried going back into it a second time, but it definitely locked up when I did, I had to soft reset. So there is definitely a bug here.

Location of config file.

Joshuas

The program does not have a config menu (yet). However, you can edit some attributes in the "settings.ini" file that you will find in your device's main icontacts folder. Open the file using Notepad.

Info on themes etc. can be found at the following web site.

Smartphone usage of iContact

I've successfully used iContact on my T-Mobile Shadow smartphone and on my Sprint Mogul. I'd like to suggest a few enhancements.

1. Dial contact, when highlighted by scroll keys and green/dial key is pressed

2. Show small pic of contact on the contact list

3. Use back key to move back out of menus

Thanks!

change it to match whatever your color for "ListItemText" is.

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] supbro:
1: good idea, but harnessing the green button is easier said than done

2: too slow/memory consumptive. why do you think iPhone doesn't do it?

3: iContact doesn't have any menus... but the back button does work on the details screen

Thanks Supbro...i absolutely love this version...hands down it's the best that i have tried...i have a mogul/titan and it works perfectly without any of the other described glitches or bugs...it makes my device soooo much more easier to use..especially when conference calling....:D
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] dborgie:
Dear Supbro,

First of all: You made a great app! I'm loving it.

It is way better than the standard contacts interface that comes with my HTC Touch Cruise.

However I have 1 small issue after installing v0.75 (first and only version I've installed):

1) First I select a contact from the contacts list, then I press the show summary button.

2) On this details screen there is a "menu" option.

3) When I click on this "menu" option a menu pops up that is missing the option to add a voice tag to my contact. Instead the context menu is showing only ...

4) When I click the ... I get following error message: "Fail to load SAPI or ContactSDMenuRes.dll"

This missing menu entry only occurs in iContacts, because when I display a contact's details from my dial pad the "menu" option there still shows the add voice tag option and that still works.

Any suggestions on how to solve this or am I the only one with this problem?

FYI: I have a HTC Touch Cruise running on WM 6 in dutch language.
