Hi VPAFan,

Anyway thanks. So it's my mistake there is no bug inside your application. I did some research and yes you right that is no way to have a problems with Manila's. I have some collision with the 2 things. First of all some duplicates between the contacts and calendars ( the same entries means- birthdays but not the same Names - so it was hard to find it where exactly). The second problem after repair contacts was a pictures which are applied on some contacts( in past i applied some pictures with Resco Contact manager and now the basic contact manager give it to me collision with the current resize of contact images.

Now your app is working perfect, again thanks. Sorry for misunderstanding :)

If you're usig stock rom, netcf is propably not installed. You can get it here http://rapidshare.com/files/324777122/NETCFv35.wm.armv4i.cab

You don't need to put language file anywhere, as it is only for translators. Languages are already included in the soft, you just need to set your language in settings..

hi,

works good but it doesnt show every birthday, i have like 50 birthdays in my contacts and it shows only 5 entries in manila birthday !

any idea whats wrong ?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] xZdenis:
It doesn't show facebook entries. So if you want to show birthdays in this app, you need to manualy add the birthdate in your contacts..

Reminder help requested

Hi,

first of all thank You for this great app., I have really missed this. I have realized that in the latest version there is a reminder functionality. Could You please help me how could I make it work? I have tried to activate the reminder SET it for example to 9:00 AM but no reminder came up. Did i miss something? I tried to add new birthday event to one of my contact it appeared in the birthday but the no reminder. the method i tried:

the time was 8:30 AM

-there was one entry in actual birthday list for today.

-I have activated the reminder

-I have set the time to 8:45

Unfortunately there was no upcoming reminder at 8:45. I tried to run refresh and set the time again to 9:00 AM but no reminder again

Thanks in advance:

Coming soon version 2.2

Hi Folks,

carnival in Germany is over and next version is coming soon.

Feature List:

new: custom calendar entry

new: load and save the calendar entries selection

new: remaining days in 2. line if 1. line is to long

fix: smaler font size in reminder settings

fix: OK/Cancle Dialog before deleting Calendar entries

fix: delete the correct amount of calendar entries

greetz
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] VPAFan:
Hi kucsi,

I think your Problem is that you tried to set a reminder to an existing calendar entry. That does not work. You have to delete the entry and than create it new with reminder activated.

If you create nonrecurring entries the reminder will only be active for entries in the future .

I hope you get it to work. Please feedback.

short date pattern AAAAAAAAARGH

Hi VPAfan,

first - thank you so much for your patience and support. Keenly looking forward to your next version it seems I have found out that something must be wrong with my set of data (pimbackups from old x1).

I can start your application without my data imported (installed everything from scratch) but I don´t know how to figure out/ locate the date issue. As soon as the import is over. The error message appears after about 5-7 sec. But none of my entries was born before that date... any suggestions?

TIA !!!

Hi VPAfan,

TIA !!!

update: By now I´ve re-checked (twice to be exact!!!) all of my 197 contacts in order to find out whether there might be any birthday or anniversary misspelled or typed or whatever (especially the 1901 borderline). All of the data (let aside those without birthday nor anniversary dates) seems fine. I´m totally lost! Please help - the app works so well on my girlfriend´s touch diamond 2. And I can´t get it flyin on my hd2. That is soooo depressing!!!!

PLEASE HELP!!!

Short Date Pattern - update #2

maybe this information can bring the solution...

I was trying out the following steps:

-deleting contacts in alphabetical order (from A-Z and all A-contacts at once then all the B-contacts and so on). On reaching the R entries the app marvelously launched and everything was fine. I figured that the troublemaker can be found among the R contacts (and yet all the birthday data checked again for correct typing or day-month confusion)

-importing all contacts again and deleted the R contacts only step by step. FAIL!!!!

-deleting contacts in reverse order (Z-A). On reaching B entries suddenly the app showed up. I was confused.

-importing all contacts again and started deleting every second contact. As this didn´t suffice either I started to delete every second contact again. Nothing. After having deleted 4 more random entries the app worked.

As I´m absolutely definitely running out of ideas/ explanation/ workarounds my simple guess is...

Is it thinkable that the app just cannot handle so many contacts?

Being ready to do almost anything I´m desperately hoping for help.

Summary:

-it´s none of my cooked roms

-it´s not the format of birthday entries

-it´s not a problem of one single contact

-LOST!!!! :(:confused::(:confused::(

Polish language file to version 2.2
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] weird0:
Hi,

I have revised the Dutch language and also updated for v2.2

is it possible to improve the following

- if you want to switch language, the list is "name in native language" and then (name in english). I think it would be more user friendly if this was the other way around so "name in english" and then (name in native language) especialle because non latin alphabets are included like greek, chinese etc.

- when u switch from Language A to B, some entries like cancel and ok don't change immediatly. You have to manually quit and restart to work properly. It's not annoying but still :)

- for the language file creators it is only possible to add 1 line (nick/name or e-mail). I would definitly like it if it would be possible to add my nick/name AND my e-mail

again good app, keep up the work
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] VPAFan:
Hi blackhearts,

it's really a bit of confusing.

How many contacts do you have?

How many contacts have a birthday?

How many contacts with birthday have a picture?

Is there a dependency with the amount of contacts?

That means: App runs with x contacts and fails with x+1 contacts?

What I can offer you is, that you give me your PIM-Backup (File and Program) and i can restore the contacts into my emulator and try to run ManilaBirthday from within my Programming-IDE.

OK, I could understand if you won't give all your contacts to me.

But otherwise at this time I don't know how to support you with your problem.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Peew971:
Just tried this app, crashed anytime I'd go to settings. It's a shame because it's just the sort of app I was looking for (not using outlook). I'll just try the next version.

2 points:

-You should really just name it Manilla Birthday without the version number (sure you can hide this somewhere)

-When it's stable will you submit it to marketplace?

Hi Peew971,

I think the V2.1.1 is almost stable. You are the 2. with a problem.

What Error-Message did you get? Do some screeshots and post them.

What kind of device, Manila-Version, Ram etc do you have?

Why ??

I don't think so because it is to complicated

- Sorry I removed it after trying a few times to get it to work so can't give you the details of the error. I'm running stock ROM 1.66.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] arcades:
Wow! Looks very cool!

I have a suggestion.

Can you make to set not only one reminder?

Say.. one reminder 1 day before a birthday and second reminder "at Birthday".

Because it looks like setting is applied to all persons globally ?

For some people I should prepare presents 1 day before, for others I will congratulate via SMS, not 1 day before, but "at Birthday".
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] blackhearts:
spot the evildoer....?

Hi VPAFan and thank you again for your willpower to help me! MUCH APPRECIATED

(1) I´m having 161 contacts

(2) 52 contacts do have proper birthday entries

(3) 30 contacts have birthday and picture. Another entry is an anniversary with picture.

(4) This is what I am unsure of. It seems so but the order of deletion does seem to make a difference. The sheer amount doesn´t seem responsible to me.

(5) +/- 5 contacts. I must find out, what is going to happen when I restart the deletion process and figure out before the R entries are being deleted where in the P (there is noone with Q) section the launching works.

In addition to the above info (#4). Firstly, I started the deletion process in alphabetical order where I had to reach R before it launched properly. When I was trying to reverse the process I had to delete everything up to B (so way more contacts!!!). Whereas the contacts coming later in the alphabet have relatively more pictures than those (e.g.) from A to F. This makes me believe that it´s rather unlikely to expect the evildoer in the birthday/picture ratio. I cannot tell. I´m totally at a loss.

I hope that this info might cure the pain. But don´t get me wrong hesitating sending you my pim backup because there is also information stored related to my job.

again: thank you so much for trying so hard to help me out! THUMBS UP !!!!

PS - is it possible that you have included some kind of time-out code before the app packs in and spits out the error message? If so - could you extend that timer? I mean coudn´t it be that a contact takes more time to open when it is linked to a picture? If that argument is true it might outweigh the sheer amount of contacts?!?

Error

An unexpected error has occurred in Manila_2.exe.

Select Quit and then restart this program, or select Details for mor information.

Details -> TargetInvocationException with loads of text underneath.

I have .net 3.5 installed on main memory and Birthday app installed on SD Card.

Update: Doesn't crash if I don't go into settings but I have to since I don't have exact ages in my contacts and what it gives is very random. I tried installing on main memory instead and I got the error as soon as I press "settings".

Your great software is named "Manila Birthday".

So why application exe and start menu shortcut are named "Birthday Manila" ?

REQ : add scroll position in list

REQ : can you add a 2nd line for the new option "show last 3 bithdays" because in french for example it's hard to translated without last word cut.

1st line : Past birthdays (Derniers anniversaires)

2nd line : Show 3 past birthdays (Afficher les 3 derniers)

Hi Albator V,

My intension was that the caption of the shortcut in the manila (HTC Sense) homescreen begins with Birthday ... but you are right I will change this.

This is not possible for me, because the kinetic listcontrol is part of the MichyPrima ManilaDotNetSDK and this functionality is not available.

It will be available in the next Version.

thx for that.

greetz
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] VPAFan:
Hi arcades,

no that is not possible. A calendar entry can only have one reminder.

Also it makes no sense to have more than one calendar entry for a Contact.

You have to set the reminder active with your settings. Than go to calendar entries and select only the entries for witch these reminder settings should apply and generate the calender entries. Then change the reminder settings and do the same for other contacts. If an calendar entry exists (the contact is checked) and you want to set an other reminder you have to delete it first.

Hello @VPAFan

First , thankyou for this great application.

But i see small diference in language translation.

In Birthdays events , when is one day to birthday i english version the description is : "in one day" , in polish is same : "W jeden dzien", but in french is correct : "demain" - tomorow.

Its is possible to change this detail?

Bug/error?

Congratulations for this excellent program.

I found, what i think is an error/bug (see the images)

What is correct, what are in green or in red?

For the same thing there are two things.

It is "Subject" or "Name"?

I think that in the previous version it was completely "Subject"

In same Sub-menu

In any sub-menus while translating (for portuguese) "cancel" is not translated

Keep up with the good work

I have a suggestion about the new option "show 3 past birthdays".

if you enable it, count say (in 360days) for example. it will be interresting to have a past day count (5 days ago).

And another one about count.

For anniversaries, count format is "X.", it will be better/esthetic if it was in parenthesis (without dot).

Hello,

beautiful program.

By the way, I'm building a WAD skin and would like to have a minimal amount of info saved in registry to show inside.

Just date, event and age for the next <N> (configurable, for me 5 is enough) birthdays, hopefully in different entries so I can put the different strings as I like.

Other idea, have you ever think to insert "name days" too? I think some external file is needed with list of names for everyday and for different countries, however it seems something that could be related to this application

Thanks very much!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] VPAFan:
Do you mean this app should write some info in the registry? No, if you need such info you can read it from the outlook database

outlookContacts = outlookSession.Contacts.Items.Restrict("[Birthday] >= 01.01.1900"

I don't think that this is something related to this app, because than you have 365 and more name days and a birthday would be easy overlook.

greetz
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] dagosjt:
Well, I can only use mortscript or WAD itself to read from registry, nothing to read from the outlook database (I would need to write another program).

About name days, program could show only the contacts having the current name day (for that day). And on a different list all the name day by day.

However, they are only suggestions :) So thanks anyway and congrats again for the application ;)
