[General Questions and Answers] timmytwotoes:
I have the HTC Touch Pro and am having difficulty with my work email account syncing properly with the phone. When I first got the phone and setup the outlook email through exchange the emails flowed into my phone simultaneously. However a week or so ago I accidentally cleared all my data back to the phone default settings as to when I bought it. My yahoo email still shows up properly, but my outlook account only syncs when I am at work logged into our system, or when I log into the exchange network. Once I log out of the system, the incoming emails stop showing up on my phone. Can you tell me why I wouldn't be able to get my outlook email at all times of the day, even when I am not logged into the system? Really it is pointless to only have my outlook email update on my phone when I am sitting at a computer viewing. Any help or suggestions are greatly appreciated!!!

Hey I am curious if there were an application or method to make your skin/background change every time your phone wakes up?

There could be many several backgrounds so each time you open it's something new and random.

Is there anything like this around?

hey all~

so this is my first post here, hope this is in the right thread (if not i apologize and ask the admins to plz move it?)

anyhows, i has a tytn2 (at&t tilt of course) its all upto date and all. i was wondering....i know i can set custom ring tones for contacts for when they call, is there any way (free way) to set custom tones for when somebody texts?

i had my old phone (motorolla rokr z6) set to do that and would like to have my new phone set that way too but i can't find how to or if its even possible anywhere....

thanks all

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] WillardZ:
Ok, I think I got two questions out of that test. J/K

1. Edit: Sorry about that. I didn't read properly.

2. To assign notification sounds. Start>Settings>Personal>Sounds&Notifications>Notifications. Open the Event: drop down, find the event, Open the Ring tone: select the sound, turn on Play sound, finished.

Notification sounds reside in the \Windows\ root folder of the device. I like to put ring tones into the \Windows\Rings\ folder. They work in other folders but I find the Rings folder neater than the root for example and thats what the Rings folder is meant for anyway.

Hope that works for you.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Mikulec:
U cant assign different ringtones for text messages to contacts. For that u will probably need some 3rd party application.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ubuntujason:
hey all~

hurm, okay well if i can't then does anyone know of any 3rd party app that can do it? i know pcm can NOT do it for text's (but they can for calls) . . .

thanks for the help guys and gals

~j
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] somynex:
try mortring. you can personalize rings for calls and sms according to individual or category.

although it's been slightly buggy since i upgraded to 6.1, it still does the job well enough.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ubuntujason:
somynex~

thanks ill google it right now :-)

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] almstasian@gmail.com:
Try photo contacts. You can assign text tones to individuals on it
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ubuntujason:
hey all~

so igrabed mortringand installedit buthad no luck with it working :-( so i guess ill look into that other suggested program....

like i said it's not a big deal, just something i would likes (it shouldn't surprise anyone as my screen name should imply i'm a linux guy [ubuntu is a linux distro.] and i love everythiing tweaked as much as possible lol)

~j
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] somynex:
sorry to hear that mortring didn't work. in WM6 and before it seems to intercept the call and then change the ring.

But in WM6.1 it seems to have to change the ringtone for each contact/category according to the ring i set it to, which can take a long time. the first time after i set the rings, thought my phone froze up. but actually it was just taking its time setting the rings for each contact (and takes a long time when one has a lot of contacts/categories).

anyway after the first couple days of freezes, it seems to work fine now and hasn't froze up on me since.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ubuntujason:
somynex~

maybe i'll give it another go then....i tried with my brothers contact info. changed his txt tone then had him txt me....maybe i needed to let it sit for longer to 'finish the change' . . .

thanks for the extra info :-)

~j
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] WillardZ:
OOOPS, I guess that teaches me to read the questions a bit more carefully. Sorry about that
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Mikulec:
No problem mate. :)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] DJayRage:
Here's a post of mine from almost 4 years ago that you can use with Mortring (free) to make custom notifications for your contacts.

Okay I figured out how to create a custom notification/ringer.

1: go to http://public.research.att.com/~ttsweb/tts/demo.php

And type in what you'd like for the notification or ring to say and then

download it after picking a voice. (keep in mind sometimes you have to purposely

misspell certain word to get them to be pronounced correctly. For example for DJ

I had to spell it as d j).

2: rename that file you downloaded into something you'd like.

3: move that .wav file to your devices /windows directory.

4: go to start - settings - sounds & notifications - notifications (select the

event you'd like to change the ring for and select the respectable audio file).

If using Mortring in step 4 assign that .wav for your contact(s).
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ubuntujason:
dj~

wow thanks, from 4 years ago...kewl that u looked it up fo rme :P i appreciate it and will be off to create :P

~j
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] J_Kirk:
Of course.. then there's always Electricpocket Ringo. It lets u assign ringtones and sms tones individually, or to groups. The best I've used so far.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] DJayRage:
Free? I tried Ringo over a year ago and it slowed down my phone a lot.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ubuntujason:
hey all~

i got mortRing working! seems pretty good, works for sure. one thing though...it seems that everytime i get a text from someone whos got a personalized tone, that wmp opens to try to play the wav file (and go figure, wav=windows audio video...wmp says it can't play wavs lol)

i think i may have fixedn it with a registry tweak, have to wait till someone with a custom tone texts me back lol

~j
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ubuntujason:
hey all~

ok so this question is probably for those who have or have used mortRing....everytime a custom notification comes my media player opens :s

i went in the registry and undid the default wmp handling of wav files (as the ringtones...err text tones lol that mortRing recognizes are wav's) but then it opened a dialouge saying it didn't know how to handle the wav file (nvm it played lol) ii changed the default to mort player but it still opens whenever one of the custom contacts text me....at least mort closes quicker then wmp...but still would be nice to get it to stop...

so any ideas? a registry hack (i'm comforatable doing that, even though im a linux guy i work on peoples win-slows computers....a LOT) anything?

thanks

~j
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] DJayRage:
I have an older version of Mortring that doesn't have that problem.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] ubuntujason:
DJ~

do you happen to know what version number you have? thanks

[G1 Android Development] d00m:
I'm wondering how easy it is to replace the names of program launchers. I would like to rename programs in the menu from something like "alarmclock beta 1.0 supa" to something shorter like "alarm clock". Obviously this is just an example. How easy would it be to do this? Is it a simple edit of an xml file or would a full recompile be necessary.

Thanks.
[G1 Android Development] Geniusdog254:
Well I'm not sure about on here. I'm gussing it is stored inside the APK file. I know on the iPhone you just edit a .plist file inside the .app. After a quick look inside the APK file none of the XMLs are editable for me they are just jibberish. Sorry I couldn't help more...

WOW!!!!

This looks really great! :eek:

I will have to test it ;)

Thanks a lot for sharing dude:cool:
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] hanackin:
hi again :D

this app is really promising and it is really fast. I love it!!!! And it has it own contact manager!! Finally! Because the default windows one was making me crazy :mad:

I would like to help you and translate it into french ;) I will send you ASAP my translation dude ;)

But I haven't seen any config tool in order to change the language, so If i want to put it into french on my device do I need to update your eng.xml and translate everything here into french ?
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] vinumsv:
Thanks a lot mate :D Installed it and its looks Great But my language for certain parts has changed to Russian :(
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] hanackin:
yeh there are some translation missing foe the english version ;)
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Aussi:
Icontact only uses 848kb of memory usage :D? But this looks very nice .

Hope there will be a dutch translation

I've just check the original thread and saw there already is a dutch version right? But only ment for VGA?

Will there be a dutch translation for the WVGA or can I just install the VGA version?
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] AllTheWay:
The Dutch translation for VGA should work fine. However the author who posted the cab modified the screen for the dialer so I don't know if it's going to work 100%. Please give it a try and let me know.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] AllTheWay:
I am still working on removing all the Russian language from the Program. What parts are still in Russian.

You can open the YotaContact.zip file that the cab creates and inside there is a Language Folder. You can modify the Russian one or create a new one for your own language.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Dark Knight:
Thick Question :

How is this different from PCM Contacts ?

It looks incredibly similiar.

What's the selling point ? More features ? Or is it speed / smaller footprint ?

I'm not questioning it's value...Some of you already sound like you are enjoying it. Just want to know what it does!
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] t0k0m0k0:
I've just installed the app on my touch HD and it looks better than PCM Contacts for me... the interface is very well designed, all functions are easily accessible: eg. search contact, edit details, add contact, etc... because there are more buttons... and i love also the little details for the contact and the switch from professionnal details to personnal details with the touch switch...

just 2 drawbacks:

- qwerty keyboard (azerty is missing, or it would be nice to have the option for the defaut SIP)

- some russian words (I,ve just seen the word for filter by "company" which is in russian)... and french translation would be very nice :)
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Dark Knight:
Also, is this (and other Yota applications) Freeware ?
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] sriramkrishnan06:

[Touch HD Themes and Apps] lordanton:
this is how the hd programs should have looked like and operated fromt he start.It's absolutely great and if the things on the to do list are done it will be a must in every cooked rom if not original ones ;) I really hope there are some experts out there to help with that
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] tboy2000:
the only way I have sorted contacts by first name is to put the WHOLE name in one field as opposed to first name field and last name field.

What keyboard is that?! I would kill just for the keyboard alone...if it works in landscape mode; imagine that, a full row of actual keys instead of half the screen taken up by direction and other crap buttons!

Heh, with a full row of keybpoard keys, you would harldy need other buttons because you would't hit the wrong key so often!
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Dark Knight:
Mr. Developer!

Everything appears to be in Russian.

Any trick to setting up the language ? Or is it yet to be supported ?
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] mallman:
is it possible to launch this with a variable so it opens on different tabs? Maybe something like <program executable> -d to open on the dialer tab or <program executable> -l for call log?
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] AllTheWay:
I got them from the YotaContactSkin.zip file that I attached. Please feel free to skin / modify yourself.

I agree it would be nice to get this keyboard as standalone.

I'm not actually sure if that is possible but it's something to look at.

Did you install the right cab?

The one from the top of the post or the one from the bottom of the post?

Update:

I have an updated WVGA version that I will be uploading in about 2 hours with keyboard fix.

Also, for anybody that want's to change or add languages to the keyboards I will post on how to modify them for your own language / keyboard that you like.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] sriramkrishnan06:
I too did the same..it took me a whole hour...lesson learnt
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] MacDegger:
Didn't ContactChanger work for you guys? Or doesn't it play nice with this program?

Anyway, still hoping someone can rip out and .cab the keyboard in this :)
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] iago_00:
Does someone know the arguments to jump directly to ... say call history or dialpad?

It would be great knowing them as they could be implemented in tf3d with ssmapa.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] bbonzz:
AllTheWay, the thing is super!

I've only a couple of questions, maybe you've the answer

1 - In language xml i see there are some word for configuration. But i can't find any configuration panel inside the app...

2 - when you search contacts by keyboard, the alphabetic scroll list reverts to russian, and reverts back to latin when you close the keyboard

3 - in call history, only the calls i have made are assigned the right way to contacts, while calls missed and received are only the number without the contact association (this because i use parenthesis and dots in my contacts phones, like +39 (02) 123.456.78, while when a call is received it's recorded as +390212345678). But in your screenshots i see you use the same phone number format (800) 123-456. Have you the same association problem?

Thanks

EDIT:

4 - Only for info: i see you read yota uses 3939kb. Mine, via MemMaid, reads... 0b as app in execution and 0b as process, while via sktools reads 7081984 as measure but always 0 as heap...

EDIT 2:

- got point 2 is an issue reading diamond thread, so don't consider it
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] hanackin:
Hey guys !

I just wanted to thank you all who are hardly working on this great app !!!;)

This is so far the best contact manager I ever had:D

Keep going this way!

tab people disappered in touch 3dflo, you can get it back by going to tab setting in 3dflo then change tab's, choose ready and tab is back.

i installed the dialer and i installed secondly the uk skin everything is in uk except when i dial or somebody dials me.

WVGA version - Dutch translation

I made a Dutch translation for the WVGA version.

I changed the eng.xml language, so no need to hack your config.xml (just leave language to eng).

To install, place the YotaContactsSkin.zip in "\Programmabestanden\YotaContacts"

Enjoy!

PS: Maybe someone else can make a YotaContacts_NLD.CAB; I've never done that before.

Dutch regkey for Yota shortcut

I've edited and copied my two registery keys, which create a link on the homescreen to the Yota Contacts Application.

For Dutch Touch HD only!

You can install the reg keys by using Total Commander CE or Resco Explorer.

To set the keys to default values, use HD Tweak and select default button action.

it is only for VGA and WVGA, your phone is QVGA :confused:

yes sir it does...and quite nicely I might add.

I thought I took that registry change out of the .cab that removed the people tab from TF3D. I will look at the .cab again.

Thanks for creating a version for my Dutch brothers. I will .cab up the Dutch version tonight.

All other languages are happily accepted. :)

Dutch translation v1.1

Hold on guys!

Since I translated the app at work, I had time to recheck every translation on my way back home. Translating a .xml is translating without the context of menus etc, so I had to change some words.

See the attachment. :p
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Aussi:
So now I can just install the english one and overwrite the files with your files.

Or should I wait for a cab :D?
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] HJ200:
If you want it now, you can do it my way. If you want a clean install, you should wait for the cab.

:)
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] AllTheWay:
I'm not sure what you mean by that. There is a eng.xml and rus.xml

Yes, this is a known error and I am trying to work on this

I don't have that issue. Make sure your Regional settings are set to United States - English inside your settings of your phone.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Aussi:
Guess I will wait for a clean. Hope you can make a cab for me soon AllTheWay :D ( and ofcourse for all the other dutchies ;) )
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] bbonzz:
yep, i say inside the eng.xml (mine is italian translation)

<!--Sync config page-->
<string name="IDS_USERNAME" value="Username" />
<string name="IDS_ENTER_USERNAME" value="Inserisci username" />
<string name="IDS_PSW" value="Password" />
<string name="IDS_ENTER_PSW" value="Inserisci password" />
<string name="IDS_URL" value="Server url" />
<string name="IDS_ENTER_URL" value="Inserisci server url" />
<string name="IDS_TURN_OFF_HIGHLIGHT_ON_SYNC" value="Spegni durante sincronizzazione" />
<string name="IDS_HIGHLIGHT_PREFERENCES" value="Highlight`s preferences" />

I know that sync won't work since i'm not on russian carrier, but thought maybe in config page there are other settings too... or i guess wrong? Anyway i cannot access that page

about regional settings, i have italian ones, and changing them means losing them on other apps to make it work in yota... not a good exchange :) thanks anyway
