Ah well, installed!

Feels great and very very fast!

Best contact manager so far.

I also like Yota, but that's much heavier and slower.

EDIT:

Just received a call: screen totally messud up!

Somehow Resco also tries to change this???

EDIT 2:

Via program files, Resco Contact: click on RPMOpt - "don't manage incoming calls". Works better now :)
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] bytes2bits:
I installed it on my Sprint Touch. It's a really nice program. I wish the touch sensitivity was a little better (when selecting "Call Home", "Call Mobile", "Send SMS", etc on each contact). I have to really hit the button just right towards the bottom for it to work. It is still beta so I'm sure they'll improve on it. I used the love Vito Funcontact but this app will be my new replacement. Try it out! :)

Edit: The "Manage Incoming Calls" is working nicely on my phone... so far.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] geek78:
here is ...

MOD EDIT: Cab removed. No mirrors needed by Resco

Resco Contact Manager

I tried it two days ago, but uninstalled it due to buggy network shortcuts on the today plugin, and limited contact functions.

Replaced it with phoneAlarm and iContact Burt edition
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] tkalli:
Thanks Rozenthal, good find.

Really nice contact program.

:)

[Touch HD Themes and Apps] danum:
Does not play nice with S2U2. After a reboot "Unable to hook the keyboard some functions will be disabled". Whatever that means.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] BadCluster:
Here, (Italian HD)

don't work the remapping button... damn...
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Akhara:
this is really cool

it support unicode

but do you link the contact to resco?? you know at the home screen

by just clicking on the down left button "contact" .. it will link you to resco contact ^^

the only weakness is the skin and the sms style.. so poor
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] blackwalker:
really cool!

but after 1 day...

i disabled the "manage incoming call" and now...

when i receive a call, i dont have anymore the full screen

with the image of the contact and the slide to "anwer or no", but only

a white message, that pop-up, with the image of the contact and

at the bottom left the answer option and at the bottom rigth the refuse message....

what the hell happen?

i'll try to install it again and see if the problem is still there...

ok, this is a beta...i'll try!!!
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] axlback:
volume button

like the app as well, but it seems to have affected the volume buttons on the side - with the app installed the volume screen comes up but doesn't change anything and then returns to the previous screen. uninstalling the program fixed the issue.

the forum at resco is locked - any idea how we're supposed to provide feedback?
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] eaglesteve:
Nice user interface and finger friendly but still very buggy. After assigning photo, the photo does not show up on contact list although u can see it in contact detail page.

Give it some time, I think this will be one of the must have once the bugs are flushed out.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] berkut_g:
i had to uninstall it ... when trying to make a call from contact detail page it would not activate although taping like a mad man on the phone number.

i'll wait for final release :)
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] eaglesteve:
Had the same problem. Forced to uninstall it too. It makes it impossible for me to take call.

But like you said, this is a beta. I'll keep an eye on this.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] jouh:
Next to Yota Phone WVGA 1.1, Resco Contact Manager look really childish and ugly. Not even smooth scrolling. Uninstalled it and using Yota again.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] kilobulb:
Nice find. It is really quick but Yota looks far far better until they bring out some skins. Defintely one to keep an eye on though,

I really like the sms view though. Anyone know of a way to just replace the touch flo 3d sms view with this one and leave the contacts as Yota?
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Akhara:
but yota don't support unicode caracteres

aaahh I have the same problem.. how did u manage to make it back?

>__<"
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] 2unique:
uninstalled:

couldn't see who was calling after disabling handle calls.

volume button stopped working as mentioned above. could slide with fingers but that's just silly

couldn't tap contact to make a call had to use hardware button

shame as for adding photo contacts with the selecting area and/or capture right there this was great. also liked the sms display and ui
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] blackwalker:
unistalled now and hope to see the panel with the slide buttn back...i hope!!!!!!!!!

yea, got it back after a soft-reset!!

trying yota contact manager now! :D
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] gewuerzwiesel:
It looks fine, yes...

But Yota is much faster scrolling...

The only problem with Yota is that it is not working with S2U2

I never had any bug or problem with Yota...but after installing S2U2 the phone

crashes with every incoming call...
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Rajnus:
He really did find it good :)
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Rajnus:
Is it really draining batery that much? I have it from the beginig of using my Blackstone so I do not know.

I love SMS threading and chating...
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Rajnus:
What is S2U2?
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Rozenthal:
If you want your incoming-call panel back, you have to disable "handle calls" in Resco Contacts and then soft reset the phone. I have to agree that Resco incoming call panel looks awful :P

As I said in first post, personally, I find the Yota much much prettier, and somewhat slower on the boot. Once it starts however, it's just as fast as Resco. The only feature I really like in Resco is the SMS threaded view. It's really great, with lot of text, great overview etc. Once they implement the skins, I'm sure we can make Resco look better :) I know I'll try to!

About Yota draining battery - Yota Contacts DOES NOT cause extensive battery consumption! It's Yota dial pad that's causing battery problems on some devices. If you install just Yota Contacts you will not have problems with the battery. You can find two separate versions for HD in Yota thread, one with Contacts only.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] gewuerzwiesel:
Slide2Unlock2

A popular Displaylocktool. I love Yota and S2U2, but they do not work together...

So I uninstalled Yota now, because a good Displaylocktool is more important to me.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] X3Mdesign:
i've uninstalled it also with sk tools, full erase + soft reset and the scrambled slide panel / call keyboard were still there.

i installed then the htc slide fix, soft reseted and i'm still having problems with the call keybord.

Any other solutions besides :

DO NOT INSTALL RESCO CONTACT MANAGER beta !!!!
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] cireh:
hmm, I use both S2U2 and Yota and it seems to work just fine for me, never had a problem with them.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Akhara:
yeah now i understand why my volume controle don't work...

have to level up level down with my finger >__<

:(
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] aE3-ink:
beta was updated today (090209)

Personally I really like it.

I tried Yota the other day but it was heavy & it screwed up my taskbar (icons wouldn't render properly). I also used a cab to map the right soft key to 'contacts' & after uninstalling both yota & the soft key cab, it left a real mess. So I decided to flash the ROM & start afresh.

Yota looks really nice but after the problems I had I prefer to try out Resco Contacts. So far so good, does the job & I like the way it remaps the hard key to show contacts.

It'll be great when we can start trying to skin it.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Akhara:
YOTA is good but the only problem i have with it

it's the fact that it don't support asian font (thai, japanese, chinese...)
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] eaglesteve:
Just tried out 090209.

Able to receive call!

Still buggy.

1) Photo added to record does not immediately show up in the contact list.

2) When adding contacts to favourites, sometimes the application just terminates by itself. When done with adding and pressed back key to the favourites, the favourite list is wrong. In order to make it right, you must go somewhere else (such as SMS application) and come back to the favourite again.

3) There is some difficulties activating the call buttons from the contact records. Takes many tabs to finally get the dialing going.

Creating and editing contact records

The Contact Card looks very nice. However, it can be used only to view existing record. If you want to add or edit record, it brings you to the standard window contact maintenance screen, which is not finger friendly at all. I hope Resco will replace that screen with its own, perhaps looking identical to the contact Card layout.

Same thing on SMS. I was disappointed that all the slick UI ended the moment we want to create a new SMS. It is the standard sms application being called up. I hope Resco will take the approach of Vita SMS chat and replace all window applications with finger friendly ones.

The only application that it replaces appears to be the phone application, which I was hoping to be left alone as the standard phone application is actually better than Resco's.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] aE3-ink:
0.93 is now out, just installed it, you lose your favourites (bizarre !)

This seems fixed now

Seems to be fixed now, plus the favourite section is no longer like the contact view, it's simply thumbnails with the contact names, looks better.

Except that long names get truncated.

From the contact list you can open the keypad (far right) & hit dial, or what I've found is easier is selecting the contact (not opening the card) & hitting the hardware key 'phone' & it opens dialer & dials.

Yep, I was annoyed that you can't edit direct into the card, which would be more logical & far easier than the standard windows one.

No changes in 0.93 unfortunataly

I wasn't too sure what you meant by this as I've still got the standard dialer, just that now it'll open resco contacts when I hit contacts.

I'm hoping they manage to implement a few more functions as aired in your post. Especially the card editing.

Anyone try adding ringtone to contact yet?
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] 2unique:
0.94 out now and still no change log!!
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] ectoric:
how come there is no video call option...
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] eaglesteve:
0.94 still has many bugs.

1) After adding the list of favourites and press the back button, the system should be displaying only the chosen favourites. Instead, it still display all the contact records. If you want to see the chosen contacts, you must go somewhere else, such as SMS application and come back to favourites to display only the favourite contacts.

2) Once you have done the first addition of favourite, it is no longer possible to add more favourites since only the previously added favourites are displayed for deletion. What it should be doing is to not only show the favourites with the optiont to delete, but also the non-favourites for addition.

3) When I tested by making a call to myself, the green accept and red rejet button are sometimes partially truncated without word on it. When I pressed reject button, the screen disappeared but the phone continued ringing. Sometimes, the display is not a problem but pressing the red reject button does not stop the ringging.

Accpeting call is not a problem.

To add and edit a contact, it still does not use the layout of the name card, instead uses the old winmo screen. This places itself in a disadvantage compared to inesoft contact. Resco should seriously consider using its own screen for adding and editing contact. After all, isn't a better UI to create and maintain contact the key reason for getting such an application?
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] hanackin:
and there is also a bug on the letter dock in the contact list, each letters are duplicate 4 times....:confused:
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] LittleJoe73:
I like the tool. But I have one problem.

Is it possible to have the contactmanager in the tf3d?? So when I touch the contact-button on tf3d Resco will start?? What I have to do??
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] eaglesteve:
0.95 is out. Looks like active development going on.

Now it is possible to reject call, whereas in 0.94 if you press the reject button the ringing does not stop.

However, the graphic for the phone skin is is messed up at times when a call comes in. The green and red buttons are half inside the physical screen and half truncated because it goes to low, and the word Accept and Reject are not on the buttons.

On both the favourite button and the contact button, there is a menu item called Add/Delete favourites. Only the only in the Contact button works. The Add/Delete in the Favourite button shows only the favourites and allows them to be deleted, and there is no means of adding in more contacts into the favourite list. To perform this function, you must use the Add/Delete Favourite function in the Contact button to do so.

I reckon they should make both ADD/Delete favourites work the same way, or remove the ones in the favourite button.

Noticed that one of the SMS messages that I sent out are not included in the SMS list. I can see in if I go to window's native SMS list, but not on Resco's SMS list. May be I should also mention that a strange thing happened when that SMS was created. I was using Resco Keyboard for typing, and notice the keybaord kept disappearing, and behind that Resco SMS was flicking. I decided to close Resco SMS screen behind to continue typing. The SMS was sent out successfully, but it did not appear on Resco's SMS database.

Im currently using Vito SMS chat with Vito Fun contacts. To date i have both to work very well, i think Vito SMS chat is great for threaded, best i have used in my opinion. Has anyone changed from Vito chat to resco contact mgr, positives, negatives etc.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] joshrys:
can someone post a link to the cab? I left my sync cable at work and the exe won't even install unless your phone is connected to the computer.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] eaglesteve:
VITO SMS is clearly better. I like it's ability to pop up the message on the screen so you can't possibly miss the SMS. Although some may think they do not want the SMS to be read by people looking at the phone.

With Resco, when you reply to or make a new SMS, you're linked to the standard window SMS application. With VITO SMS chat, you have a real finger friendly input screen.

The plus side of Resco is that it seems to have integrated Phone call, SMS and address book into a single application whereas with VITO they are separate applications that have to be started individually, I think. The loading time for VITO is also longer in my experience.

Visually, I like Resco contact manager better.

If only it can replace those window standard applications in contact and SMS!
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] rexboy:
100% agreed, installed it on my fiance's htc touch to play around. VITO also allows to delete individual messages, Resco is all or none or delete the standard way which can take along time as the messages are not sorted into contact etc. Also by sms'ing in standard view mode you cant recall the conversation whereas VITO allows this so you can type, review previous messages and continue back with what you are writing all in one screen. If Resco can make it true SMS threading rather than just an interface like you said it will be much better as its clearly fast than VITO and its all intergrated which is good to see.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] 2unique:
set the send key to do not over ride to get yr volume control back...
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] eaglesteve:
One aspect the Resco does really really well, and I really love, is the way it lets you set up pictures for the contact. First, the photo appears very quickly, unlike say Vito Fun Contact, which takes forever to load the photos. Then, it let you zoom in and out of the photo and put a frame over the picture to set which portion of the pictures will be taken as the contact photos - very very nice. This is the single most appealing of the software for me.

New version 0.96

There us a new version 0.96 released and it looks good..... i just installed and yet to test how it behaves when my phone receives call, because I had problem in previous versions!
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] eaglesteve:
Just tested 0.96. I'm able to reject call now. It is showing the buttons correctly, and when I press reject button, the ringing stops immediately.

Looks like we're progressing.

Still some strange behaviour in the favourites aspects.

Still hopeful that we'll be able to create and maintain record, send SMS using better looking screen than the standard microsoft ones.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] eaglesteve:
This looks like a very attractive design. I like especially the way you assign the photo to the contact and the ability to zoom and crop the photo.

I wish to suggest an improvement to the photo assignment process. I find while scrolling for the correct photo, the scrolling action of the finger often gets interpreted as the photo selection, hence the wrong picture is picked for the editing screen. When such mistake happens, the only way to go back is to start the many steps (i.e., select browse button, press browse device, press storage card, press my document, press picture, and wait...wait... for the pictures to be fectched and the icon slowly turned into pictures. And if you have a few hundred pictures like my case, there is a long long long process of scrolling down to the one at the bottom) all over again.

Would'nt it be nice if there is a way from the edit photo screen to be able to directly go back to the list of pictures you were scrolling and select the correct ones? Althernatively, have an option that says which directory the photo should be selected from.

i installed and seems quite good (except the bugs) but how can i make it run by default when i push "call history" on the main screen and "all people" at people tab?
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] eaglesteve:
Can you elaborate how it messes up the volume control button? You might be giving me the answer to this problem here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=482815

I noticed that if I press the volume button, the volume adjustment screen appears, but the next press does not increase/decrease volume. I noticed this problem a while ago and knew it was one of the software causing it but did'nt know which one. Is this it? Anyway, I'll uninstall and see what happens.

Edit: Bingo. This is the offending software. Thank you for solving the mystery for me.

To avoid the volume rocket ;essing up, do NOT assign anything yo the SEND button in Resco contact managet.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] eaglesteve:
Easy. Use SSMaPa to do it. Try it yourself. If you can't get it to work let me know, I'll guide your through step by step. Not for the history, but you can make the phone button display the history using Resco's software. You can also use Resco contact when you press the "all people" key.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] parasite81:
thanks! im using ssmapa for galarm and thumbcal, but i dont know which program belongs to the call history. "all people" must be the poutlook.exe i think. so you say that there is no "program" for call history in ssmapa? thats sad. i hope resco will make an option for this integration in the final version.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] eaglesteve:
Look like you're all set then. Yes, it would be nice if the call history can be replaced. May be the author of SSMaPa could fix it?? Would you like to make that request to him?
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Psyberd:
I had .95 it looks nice but after upgrade to .96 it took over my phone send button but didn't default to PHONe instead when pushed it brought up call history, I wouldn't mind if it took over call history but when i press phone i want to make a call not view history or necessarily return a previous call. wouldn't mind if it took over ALL PEOPLE. another minor complaint is i don't really like its keypad. I'd prefer to use my own.. TouchPal. It's look is nice but has a little way to go to work out its usability/friendliness issues... guess thats what were for :) it also seems slow on coming up one an incoming call, and has some issue of after i finish a call is like stuck in landscape more when its an unknown number and you get the "add number to contacts, to a known contact, cancel?" dialogue. I like it's Thread Display of SMS but on reply it goes to plan standard message input that could be improved i think. I would give these points as feedback but dont see any feedback mechanism from the site.

If you do not want the send button to be taken over, go to option and under send key action, choose "do not override".

[Touch HD Themes and Apps] eaglesteve:
Just a thought. Now that I'm using the new TF3D (Dutty's Extreme 1.8) with such a fantastic contact application, why would I want Resco's contact manager anymore?

The contact application in TF3D seems better then Resco's in almost every way. The only place where it is slightly losing out is that while choosing the picture, TF3D's contact cannot zoom in and out before croping the picture. However, it can go back to get the new picture without going through all the painful steps, and it can store the default directory to get picture from.

The key pluses of TF3D over Resco at the moment are:

1. It can go back and forth in selecting the picture with a "back" bautton.

2. You can create and edit contact with the nice finger friendly contact card. Resco is still using window mobile's contact application!!

3. In Resco's contact, when a contact info is displayed, you can go to Chat history and call history. TF3D's contact has both of these but also email history!

Resco, you have much catching up to do.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] 2unique:
double tap the picture... can zoom but its not much use as you can't control it

apologies for the pedantic correction ;)
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] eaglesteve:
Hope the next TF3D vesion will have a zoom bar to control it too. I find that feature in Resco very handy, because I do use it to zoom in to a friend's face to the right size (most of my contact's picture were taken during group functions and parties) before cropping it. With TF3D, this feature is missing, since you either zoom in too closely or not enough.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] ClownShoes:
Just so you know, Resco contact manager is now version 1.0 and therefore no longer beta. I am using 0.8 with the all contacts tab set to picture view and have it mapped to my left soft key. It looks really nice and I find it incredibly easy to use :)
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] eaglesteve:
Yes, it is not free now, but there is a 7 day trials.

For me, I'm not going to use this product as long as it still uses native windows contact application to add and edit contact.
