Thanks nice release
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] nir36:
that is obviously true for every other app in the market.

that's the challenge. you have to keep it so good so that people will want to buy it.

.. just my opinion on the subject.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] slarti_bartfast:
I seem to have a little buggette -

If I minimize the app in Favourites view, when I restore it, switch to main view and try to use the grid, it freezes. I can only unfreeze it by closing it.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] truburt:
Yep, that's a known bug, unfortunatelly I still didn't found the root cause.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] sathya:
Plz make this compatible with WM 2003SE.plzz..no one is supporting us..plzzz
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] alaiwy:
Truly an amazing addition to an already fantastic app. Nice job!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] XTREEM|RAGE:
Hmm gonna try this one out! tnx!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Starfury:
Two bugs I've found so far and it seems to affect both your version and supware.net's version too.

When clicking on Favourite it hangs the phone for about 8 seconds. When clicking on Recent calls it hangs the phone for 5 seconds and the icon for the A-Z disappears (reappears again if you click the middle icon).

Feature request. There is no separation of call types (incoming, outgoing and missed). You have to go into each entry to find out what type it is.

Is there any way of having a colored icon on the entry so we can tell quickly what type it is?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] HaiLe512:
Bug in contact details?

Switched to contact details on this version will produce contact info plus many blank lines where there is not supposed to have any lines. Previous be4.0 does not have this problem.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] tekknogenius:
Feature Request

Option to bring up keyboard automatically when started if on the opening screen (I always use that to get to the letter of the person I want to call or lookup).

Great work!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] pjdick:
Question \ Feature Request

Is there a way to make iContacts start in Favorites? I call my favorites more than anyone else. I currently have to take an extra step to get to them now, as the application starts in the general contacts list....

If it can't be done currently, could you please add that feature?

Thanks.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] wearefree:
Same problem here... will use 4.0 for now.

Feature request: could you change the time displayed at the title bar in 12 hr format as well?

Thanks for the great work!

It great! I wait for VGA version long time! Thank you your hard working!

best contact manager so far

WOW!!! SIM contact on icontact :eek: ... u genious man!!! Thanks a lot TRUBURT...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] truburt:
You may notice a strange thing with SIM contacts: they appear in contact list a few seconds after the list is loaded. That's because SIM phonebook loading is a long process, so they are loaded in the background. iContact loads first, then SIM contacts loading starts. You can adjust this behavior by setting DelayedSimLoading to 0 in settings.ini, then loading of SIM contacts will start before iContact is fully loaded, so there will be a shorter pause before SIM contacts appear in the list.

Hope this explanation is not too tangled :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] iTouch24:
is there anyway for icontact to post a persons birthday in your calendar automatically so it will play an alert and remind u .....?

can anyone advise on what the major differences are between the burt version and regular icontact version?

Burt Edition 6 vs. iContact 0.76

Improved performance

Jump-to-contact keyboard automatically supports multiple languages

Contact pictures displayed in contact list and in call history (both optional)

Contact dialing number displayed in contact list, with an ability to dial it by long-tapping the contact

Contact lists and call history are cached, and updated only on real changes in contacts or call log, thus no more useless freezes

Configurator application included to easily configure app settings

All the features are optional and can be tuned to your needs through settings.ini file, or using a Configurator app

Menu bar displayed in contact details and includes ability to delete a contact

Clear and predictable scrolling/tapping behavior

Scroll acceleration on repeated scrolling gesture

Different Call History modes switched by repeated click on Call History button: All calls, Missed calls, Incoming calls, Outgoing calls

Call type icons in Call History

Ability to limit number of days shown in Call History

Ability to add a contact from the call history, or jump to contact details if it's already in contacts

Ability to start in specified tab (Favorites, Call History or All Contacts)

Configurable width of virtual scrollbar and minimize button (see skin options VirtualScrollbarWidth and MinimizeAreaSize, respectively)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] haiopei:
Awesome work ! Congratulions for this milestone of iContact. :D

Thanks a lot ! ;)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] iTouch24:
how do u close this application once u are done with it ?

if u hit top menu bar it just minimizes ...

i cant wait till this new version gets skinned
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] dinco:
Noted. Thanks for the advice. Really love your new icontact release :D
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] I[E:
very cool.

is there a way to make the time in the call history not get cut off in 12hr mode? the string seems to be a little too long
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] iggy:
In the configurator their is an option to exit on minimize
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] PPCBANDIT:
Perfect

Thanks Burt

This is the best icontact in my opinion - and the best contact launcher in generel. Very well done! Thanks

SMS App

Hello Burt or Forum,

How to I assign my SMS App? I went into configuration but can't seem to link or select SMS-Chat (Vito) as my SMS App.

Cheers,

Paul
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] kwoodall:
Burt,

I gotta say, I'm very impressed. I was using Ender's iContact but you've overtaken him here. Wonderful! Now the gauntlet is thrown down!! :)

I've got a list of bug/suggestions for you...btw, I'm using iContact on a Mogul and on a T-Mobile Shadow and it works great on the Shadow except for the mentioned bugs. iContact is actually an excellent replacement for the regular Contact Manager on Smartphones as well as touchscreen phones. On a T-Mobile Shadow, and the new WM 6.1 as well, it fits into the more graphical interface on these devices much better than the default contact manager.

BUG - You can use the scroll/joystick to scroll left and right over the bottom icons in the Contact List EXCEPT the phone and keyboard/grid icons.

BUG - Exit out of details screen when Back button pressed (in addition to the left scroll button). It's supposed to work in all iContacts but doesn't. You can test this in a smartphone emulator.

NEW - Dial contact when green/call button pressed from the Contact list

NEW - Click on the Picture in Details screen to add/change the contact's image (allow image to be a max size of 320x240 or 240x320 - resize down from loaded image as needed before storing with the contact)

NEW - Add an Edit Contact button to the Details screen (or allow the right/left scroll/joystick to navigate the bottom menu to do this.

NEW - Option to turn off the bar with the A, B, C, etc to have a single, unbroken, list. Theme or settings option?

NEW - Option to turn off the iContact top status bar and just use the built-in status bar.

NEW ? Can the menu items at the bottom have a changable height AND work fully with right/left scroll/joystick buttons?

NEW - Accept keypad input like the built-in contact manager to sort down to the item you're looking for in the contact list.

Burt thank you for this new version, it is great. I am liking it a lot. I love the configuration tool, so much easier that having to always edit the ini file.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] wearefree:
Excellent release again! Being using your be5.1 with diamond skin for the past and really this new release is very nice!

Just need a little re-work on the white skin, the black bars in the bottom blends well with the old diamond skin but not with the new white skin. Hopefully Lycox will come up something nice...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mcmike_cz:
Ok, this is totally great... I luv this edition

My skinz will be aviable (in new style) as soon as possible ;)

And by the way - many thanks to you BURT :)

Real VGA theme

Is it possible to use 480x640 skin file? I can do it, if anyone can give me information how to share skin file in proper way. I mean, what are the sizes of navigate buttons in VGA theme etc.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] cyrilphoenix:
Hello Burt,

I just find your page and you icontact version, first let me tell you that I

find it the most finalised of icontact version we can find over the net !

So congratulation, I hope you will improve performance and utility in future ...

I write you because I prefer iContact instead of PocketCM but we miss something for SMS ...

So Did you plan something about SMS, like iSMS ??

In my opininon it will better to make a new application, not a iContact feature, but with links together ...

I hope you will reply by positive word lol

I want also to tell that I'm agree with kwoodall for new feature :

is there any plan for icontact version who contains all versions features ?

Thanks for all

Cyril
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] sinoo:
If I already missed it:

Are there already new skins for iContactBE6 available?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] XTREEM|RAGE:
I really like this new version!!

It roxxer our boxxer or something :P. But...when i have the option on to show pictures it is great but not if i have the option on for call history.

Somehow it doesnt look right, can you take a look at that. It looks like it have been made with a lot of haste, not all, but only the call history imo. I dont know how to describe it, but it looks all smashed to gather if you have people with long names and pictures on for the call history ;).

Tnx!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] truburt:
It is possible, take a look at default_vga.png and default_vga.skn files, they are for 480x640 res. Compare them to default.png and default.skn to learn the difference for VGA.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] truburt:
I'll take a look, thanks :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] truburt:
Wow, quite a large list :) I'll use it when will choose features for next release, thanks.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] iggy:
Body85 asked in another thread if it was possible to have/create iContact as a today plugin. Is this remotely possible??

I understand Truburt that this is not your code and you are just enhancing what's already their but is the concept feesiable.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mcmike_cz:
This sound like great idea - something like SPB Pocket Plus work - quick dial with pop up menu (call, sms, etc...)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] salahnajm:
bug

Only two small bugs. When clicking on a pager number it opens a new email with the pager number instead of calling the pager number. The second bug is when clicking on an email it opens the mail software without opening a new email.

Otherwise excellent software!!!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mcmike_cz:
I ment something like this attachement.

Today plugin which is able to show chosen contact (like favorites or some spec group) ... The popup would be great to use and work with...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] iggy:
actually what I was hoping for is iContact exactly has it is when u open it (i.e. scrollable) because to include that as a tab in Ultimate Launch would be, how do you say.... ultimate :-)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] body85:
so... what i mean is... can we make a plugin thats look like this file :-) (for my Kaiser)

ehhh and did anyone have HTC Diamond Icons? a Icon Pack there are ALL diamond buttons???
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mcmike_cz:
This is really good idea too... Why not... But you know, today plugin can be very interesting. Cause there are no trally good plugins like this SPB one for free
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Pisca:
You have two options to get Icontact

1 - Assign a Soft Key

2 - Use Mortbuttons - I have one for Phone apps with Icontact inside, and you today plugin is there
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] iggy:
1. softkey already assigned

2 ?? have no idea what you mean Pisca here
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] pinsho:
Truburt = SUPERHERO!!!!

great job man!

:D
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Pisca:
With Mortbuttons you have the chance to use one Button in today, they can be added to Today Items in their configurations, behind that button you may add, like a launcher, one or more aplications, Icontact can be one, with that you you have two strokes to reach IContact

See attached, Today screen and 1st Mortbutton open

Those 3 buttons are the ones I use as a launcher, the first one, includes Icontact, Poutlook Contacts and one Exit Option to close
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] iggy:
Ok sounds great, but how is this a plugin, since I use a softkey at the moment what is the difference between having it as a softkey, a button or a icon under mort/ul/spb/ilauncher....its still a button... u have to click so it is not a plugin.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] grzenio01:
thanks, I'm working on it :) below you can see some screens. Still few icons are missing but I hope I'll finished it tomorrow..
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Pisca:
Actualy we don't have a plugin, for now, so this a one way to bypass and reach Icontact, using soft-key or Mortbutton you can make a choice
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] LivinOne:
trubert,

I love this app, thank you!

One suggestion... can we have a direct SMS access from the contacts list screen? Maybe choosing the picture will select to send an SMS to the mobile phone?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] truburt:
1. It opens an SMS to the pager number, though probably its a bug and I need to Call the number instead. Will fix it :)

2. It's not a bug. Since you haven't set anything into your EmailAccount setting in settings.ini, system looks up for the last used Email account. If there is no any, then it just brings you the mail software. So try to send a mail using the desired account, and then check if iContact catches that mail account next time.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] truburt:
Thanks for the notice, I'll think of a way to implement it. For now right column is occupied by virtual scrollbar, which width is 30px by default, so it will mess with clicking the picture.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] salahnajm:
truburt, I posted earlier but no reply (sorry for posting again), but when i press on the pager number on my contacts it opens the mail server (instead of dialing the number) is there a way to fix that?

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] truburt:
Sorry, missed this post. Yep, you can either increase ListSecondaryWidth setting in your .skn file to set a wider zone for the time, or decrease SecondaryListFontSize setting in .skn, to make the font smaller.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] truburt:
Application override settings are advanced, it means that you should fill the lines manually. Put the full path to Vito SMS-Chat app executable in SMS Application parameter (e.g. \Program Files\Vito\SMS-Chat\smschat.exe), and set appropriate command line string in SMS App Args parameter. I don't know what arguments are supported by SMS-Chat, or whether they are supported at all.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] chiekh:
Is there a possibility to add in the next release the Reset of the missed calls counter after consulting the call history with iContact. Thanks
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] truburt:
Yep, I'll put this into TODO list of the next release.

I didn't quite like how the color was on the list screen for the white skin so I recolored based on the original Diamond skin Lycox made for be5.1.

I take no credit for this; all credits go to Lycox and burt.

Please if you want to alter anything, don't ask me. I'm not a skinner; I basically just copied and pasted what the colors for the original skin.

Requests

Truburt, looks like your website is down at the moment..?

Anyway. Very nice app. Couple of feature requests:

1) Could you provide the ability to display first,last as well as last,first?

2) This new version unfortunately displays the letter category in Favourites as well as the favourites themselves. Like:

A

Adams, John

B

Brand, Russell

[...]

The previous version didn't have this, to my recollection. Could you add an option to turn off letter categories in the display please? Just to save a little room and display more favourites and contacts on one screen.

3) An option to change the default font while keeping the same skin would be great.

Thank you very much for updating iContact!

Dhry
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] I[E:

Hey truburt,

I have been on these forums for over 6 months and this will be my first post.

I have been using your version of iContact since you started your version. Extremely nice version!

Which brings me to the reason for my first post, is it possible to add the "Company Directory" lookup functionality?

Awesome job! Thanks

It would be really nice to be able to assign iContact functions (edit contact, add/edit picture, etc) to the soft menu buttons for the different iContact screens.

iContact Configurator Update

Configurator updated to v1.1:

- Tabbed interface

- VGA support

Hope this will make it more useful :)

BTW, you can translate fields.dat file to any other language: simply open it with a notepad and translate every line which starts with "Label=", keeping all other lines unchanged.

Example

english: translated:
Field=Special Field=Special
Name=CancelButton Name=CancelButton
Label=Cancel Label=Aufheben

Good but...

... Dial contact when green/call button pressed from the Contact list IS A MUST. It's such an intuitive button to press when you are over the contact or number.

Also, I liked the gold star in the previous version. It's plain grey now.

Fantastic application though :-)

Hello Burt!

You did a great work!!!, I so love this application.....

I have one request, that will bring to iContact more OS Integration...

I mean, add support for transparent skin, that will use system wallpaper as background, and system theme colors...

Thank You!!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] wearefree:
Glad you like it, but like I said I can take NO CREDIT for this because I simply combined what was the best from Lycox and burt!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] WildSioux:
I have started making a white/black PointUI 1.02 skin for this version as well. But I am having an issue with some of the icons either not showing or showing broken. Like the cell phone, home phone, and work phone icons showing only half or none at all.

I'm sorry, I don't have a screenshot. But all I'm doing is replacing the icons in the skin with icons for mine in the same spots. Any recommendation?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] truburt:
Screenshots will help to detect the root cause. If you add icons in the same place and didn't change skin size at all, it should work OK.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mcmike_cz:

truburt, love your icontact version. One thing I've noticed though is that I constantly accidentally press a contact when I'm merely trying to scroll through the list of contacts. I find the press detection to be too sensitive. Any way to configure this? Can the Scroll Threshold be used to effect this somehow? What are the range of values allowed for Scroll Threshold.
