Yep :( i just notified that 2 birthdays are missing, and are on 31th July and 31th January. It was just a clue since i don't have any other birthday on last month day. Just to make sue I created a fake contact with birthday on 31th March and BDAy didn't create the relative birthday :confused: even if i don't sync my device with outlook! :(
[Windows Mobile Software Development] mohitsapru:
Hmm i too tried with july and feb ends... but works!!!

did you clean the bdays before adding the new ones?

EDIT: what is the status of you setting in

Start/Settings/Phone/Time Zone(Tab)?
[Windows Mobile Software Development] Luigi_Follina:
I don't know but the Time zone is not where you told me (phone_details.bmp) ...

I have Start/Settings/International settings/Hours (phone_data.bmp) :confused:
[Windows Mobile Software Development] mohitsapru:
I think u missed out the images :D

it should be under phone settings.. the place where u set ur phone ring and network settings. There only we have a tab for timezones.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] Luigi_Follina:
:D here the attachments, anyway I dont' have the timezone tab
[Windows Mobile Software Development] mohitsapru:
check this... this is why i think your calendar dates are changing

for hints on timezone check this also
[Windows Mobile Software Development] Luigi_Follina:
Thank you :) I'll check and let you know!

Cheers! :)
[Windows Mobile Software Development] mohitsapru:
ny progress??
[Windows Mobile Software Development] Luigi_Follina:
Just a little bit busy during these days :-) I'll try tonight :D

Thanks!

PS: i try to change the date of those 2 contact with birthday on 31st and the software does not create the event as well, so the problem are those 2 contacts! :(
[Windows Mobile Software Development] mohitsapru:
do these contacts have their mobile numbers defined?
[Windows Mobile Software Development] Luigi_Follina:
Yep! Apparently they are similar to the others! :(
[Windows Mobile Software Development] mohitsapru:
is it possible that u have duplicate records...hmm that shud not be a problem... do you get any error message.. or when u try to add again just those two do you get message saying 2 contacts added?
[Windows Mobile Software Development] Luigi_Follina:
No errors and no new birthday added, The software just says me "n" contacts already present
[Windows Mobile Software Development] mohitsapru:
OK this might be irritating but by any chance does those two contacts have similar name i mean (firstname lastname) as of some other contacts?
[Windows Mobile Software Development] Luigi_Follina:
No! Different names.

Anyway don't worry you're not irritating me at all! :D
[Windows Mobile Software Development] Luigi_Follina:
Hi Mohit

just one question. do I have to lunch the program evry time I restart the phone?

Is it possible to add an option on the configuration tab to "Automatically run at start-up" ? :D

Sorry but i'm still too busy to run tests :o

Ciao!
[Windows Mobile Software Development] mohitsapru:
No, not needed except in case u have done a hardreset :p

it adds it in notification queue so it runs automatically every day.

Don't tell me u used to keep it running:eek: just save and exit does the trick and it really exits. I personally dont like apps that keep running in the background;)

Mohit
[Windows Mobile Software Development] Luigi_Follina:
I got it :D Thanks!

Actually I have to hardreset my phones because it is getting crazy and this can affect tests... for this reason i need a little bit of work :p

Iìll send you a mail with another request :D do you mind?

SMS Birthday on Samsung Omnia II I8000

I am not able to get this application working on Smasung Omnia II I8000 for some reason. Birthday events are added correctly, application turns on on time 00:00 hours in night, however it is not able to execute and send SMS for some reason. Dont know if it is related to some configuration issue with SMS sending in Omnia II. Application is working perfectly fine on HTC Touch Diamond.

Any suggestions from Omnia II users OR Mohit

Thanks

Akhilesh
[Windows Mobile Software Development] mohitsapru:
Hi Akhilesh,

I hope you have opted for save n exit menu after u setup the time for checking the bdays. Also could you check if the application is registered correctly in notification queue. If you dont know how to check download/Search "fdcsoft taskmanager".

And if possible test with some other time setting.

Thanks,

Mohit

Omnia II I8000

Hi Mohit

I have tried many time settings with same result. At correct time device wakes up and can see windows cursor. Seems everything is running, however sms is not sent. Checked log entries as well, first entry has time stamp in it followed by scheduled time stamp.

In task maager sendsms.exe is running.

Is there anything to be checked in registry?

Thanks

Akhilesh
[Windows Mobile Software Development] mohitsapru:
seems some problem... sendsms is hanging... kill it... no settings in reg. as such... could you try again after killing it? lemme know.

How many contacts do you have?

OK did some modifications to the code... could you check if it is working...atleast sendsms should not be always running...
[Windows Mobile Software Development] spideric:
Hi Mohit,

What if I don't have outlook on my pc or phone?

I tried to edit the contact & under categories I ticked 'SMSBIRTHDAYS' then I added a birthday & it appeared in the calendar. I then added it to your program and it said successfully added. Save & exit after setting the time. On reaching the time, no sms was sent.

Is there a way to work around this?

I do have my google calendar synched through activesync if that makes any difference?

[Windows Mobile Software Development] spideric:
This may also help: e.g. if my current time is 4:30, I've got a birthday on the same day and I ask your program to check at 4:32, two minutes later to see if it sends something, but it hasn't sent a sms at all
[Windows Mobile Software Development] akhil8377:
Omnia II

I have downloaded and checking it will let you know. I just have approx 400-500 contacts with only 47 having birthdays

Hi I have a question/Problem...

Outlook already creates the Bdays events in the calendar when you fill it in on the contact information card...

So when I use BDay Sms, it ceates them twice.

Is there any workaround or tweak, so that the programme recognizes the outlook-created events without reating them through BDa sms ?

Thx
[Windows Mobile Software Development] mohitsapru:
Didnt notice this :eek: well in case it is so i will try to fix...:eek:
[Windows Mobile Software Development] kompozitor:
thx that's cool...

i manage all mt contact with desktop Outlook witch creates itself the bdays events from the contact card...

after using bday sms, i have twoeevents : one from outlook, one rein your application... the best would've be that sms bday checks ic the event exists, if so, just add the category. same for removal : just remove the category "SMSBIRTHDAY"
[Windows Mobile Software Development] mohitsapru:
This might sound easy but doing it will be real complicated and might lead to some unwanted results, tried but difficult...
[Windows Mobile Software Development] spideric:
(using V1.0 and have used v1.1) Strange. It tells me I added a few birthdays but it no longer send's a sms.

I have two category option under contacts 'smsbirthday' and just 'birthday', do I select both option? I don't use Outlook on my PC, because I don't have it. I just edit the contact in my phone.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] mohitsapru:
by "no longer" do you mean it used to send SMS earlier? If not did you scheduled it?
[Windows Mobile Software Development] spideric:
It used to send the sms when I used your earlier version. I did schedule it.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] mohitsapru:
So i suppose you have cleaned the earlier bday events it added in calendar, there was some clean.exe (till v0.3) that i had put before a version change. IN case you have not cleaned that time i suggest you to remove all the calendar entries that you have with Category as SMSBIRTHDAY and then add events again by the app. Hope this should fix it
[Windows Mobile Software Development] spideric:
Done all the above. I've un-installed the software as it seems unreliable. Maybe it might help if you included screenshots for future users. Great idea, if only it worked 100%.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] lamajstro:
Is there a way not to add the birthdays to the calendar, so that the program only checks the outlook contacts to see if someone has birthday? Or might this be draining the battery?

+1 on this request

Desktop Outlook already adds an event in the calendar.

Issue or Bug

I recently install the application (so late !!!! for such a useful application).

After adding the contact withing application, I was expecting it to send the drafted message.

However it won't and I tried to figure it out. Developer mentioned that it create the appointment under categery "SMSBIRTHDAYS". So as application did.

However, I found that for some of the contacts having their birthday mentioned have been skipped.

As I have activsync, it helped me to figure out ... !!!

I could see that if for a contact FIRSTNAME is not filled up, this application not creating the respective calender appointment for the birthday.

I edited all the contacts and corrected the FIRSTNAME. Then clean-up all appointments from the application and once again add-up them. Now application created appointments for ALL contacts having birthday.

I think this should solve my / other's issue of application Not sending any SMS.

---------------------

Added On 18/03/2011

I found the application unstable. If user schdule it, it will then send next (whenever the next Bday happen) to one contact. But after it sucessful sends that sms, it fail to reschdule it every day. So user once again open the application and save it. Quite embresssing !!!!!!!

[Windows Mobile Software Development] mohitsapru:
Hi Sunil,

So the issue with sms not getting sent is solved?? i never suspected that anyone would like to wish a person with only his last name in his contacts LOL... well thanks again if it solved ur problem.. saved me a headache ;):o

Thanks,

Mohit
[Windows Mobile Software Development] sunkol:
Dear Mohit

Many times, mostly for respected elder ones by age or authority, we do put only Surname. Anyway, your application did send one message I created for test.

But, incidently, on my friends birthday, it won;t acutally send any sms. However, I suspect that my phone itself was down due to battery on the schdule time!!!!! :o

But then what action the application takes in such a case ?????

[Windows Mobile Software Development] tebaomang:
Hi, thanks for this great app. :D

I have something to ask: If I add new contact or add birthday to a contact, do I have to delete all SMSBirthday events in my Calendar and run the program again?

Thank you very much.
[Windows Mobile Software Development] mohitsapru:
No need to remove the previous entries just run the program and choose add contacts. That should be enough.

Thanks,

Mohit
[Windows Mobile Software Development] tebaomang:
Nice. Thank you so much. You did create a great app.

But i would be better having the program automatically adding information, right? Is it possible? I would be like the way activesycn works, i guess :D
[Windows Mobile Software Development] mohitsapru:
Thanks for trying in out tebaomang,

I think it does that automatically u just have to add the persons bday in the contacts and then only once you need to run to update the calendar. and if you are suggesting that it should do this automatically wheneveert a new bday is added to a contact... then yes its a good idea but a tricky one to impliment.

Thanks,

Mohit

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NickPDX:
My work has free wifi and I have never been able to get logged in to use it with my G1. It has a page where you accept a useage policy then it redirects you to the companies home page. On the G1 it gets to the page where it says redirecting then it gets stuck and it has to get to the next page before it is allowed to browse anywhere else. Yesterday my friend tried for the first time with his Droid and it went right through the whole process without a problem and was browsing on the wifi easily.

Is there an upgrade to the browser with 2.0 that is allowing it to get through better? So if I upgraded my G1 to 2.0 it would work? That is the only thing I can think of. Any other thoughts?
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vixsandlee:
have you tried some of the third party browsers on the market / online.

Of the top of my head you have three.

Steel

Dolphin

Opera Mini (Opera mobile is in beta i beleive but not avalable to the public yet)
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NickPDX:
Thanks for the suggestion. None of them get any further than the stock Android browser on the G1. I had my friend who has a Cliq give it a shot as well and his gets stuck on the same spot as mine at the "redirecting" point. Like I said though, the Droid on the 2.0 browser just speeds on through and doesn't get stuck when redirecting. I am thinking about tossing a 2.0 rom on my G1 and testing to see if it fixes that problem.
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] t1n0m3n:
What ROM are you running?

I remember this has been an issue since launch, however I just tried with the stock browser and it worked just fine this time. I will have to use more work WiFi now that I know it works. I am on the Dwang 1.15 rom.

[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fourfone:
Use devicescape/easy wifi

Load an app called easyWIFI on your G1 (used to be Devicescape) It is specifically set up to bypass those login pop-ups that you can't get to on most mobile browsers. I've been using it on my Nokia S60s for a couple years and it's great.

You can even use it with 'hard' logins, like Starbucks, and with secure wep/wpa/wpa2 routers. You can load it on your PC too.

www.easywifi.com
[G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NickPDX:
Thanks for the tips. I will check out that Easywifi app.

I had been using TheOfficial DONUT rom and was unable to get past that screen in the browser. This past weekend I loaded the latest CYN rom that is apparently using the 2.0 browser. Doing this allowed me to get through the browser authorization screen 100%. This seems to confirm that the problem was simply with the pre2.0 browser, since CYN with 2.0 browser and a droid can access it just fine.

I have to say that I prefer TheOfficial DONUT rom over the CYN roms. I went months with no Force Closes on The official rom and with CYN I always seem to get more and also have issues with apps working properly. I assume that it is partly due to the CYN rom being so customized and probably some opperator error in there too.

I hope at this point that somebody works something out that allows us to install the 2.0 browser in any 1.6 rom. That way I could use TheOfficial DONUT but have the 2.0 browser too. Not the end of the world if this doesn't happen though.

Thanks again for the tips and feedback.
[HD2 General] mutley282:
Hello all

I am having a problem getting the HD2 to connect to a TomTom Go 530 so that the TT can use the GPRS connection from the HD2 to get real time traffic data.

The problem is that if I put my T-Mobile contract SIM into a HTC Touch Cruise running WM6.0, load the DUN drivers cab. file and pair up to the TT, everything works perfectly. (The T-Mobile settings in the TT are incorrect but it is a straightforward job to manually enter the correct settings and then it all works).

However, if I put the same T-Mobile SIM into the HD2 (which runs WM6.5), and again, load the DUN drivers cab. file and pair up to the TT, the TT cannot establish a GPRS connection to T-Mobile. All I get is the 'Unable to establish wireless connection' error message on the TT and you can also see the 'Dialup Networking' service connecting and disconnecting on the HD2 whilst the TT is trying to connect. The process always ends with the dialup networking service disconnected on the HD2. I should point out that the HD2 and TT do pair up successfully for hands-free operation but not for GPRS.

Please can anyone help here? Am I doing something daft? Is the DUN drivers cab. file compatible with WM6.5 or is there a new one? Is this a bug in WM6.5 itself? e.t.c.

Thanks to all in advance for any help.

Regards

Mutts

Hi,

Thanks.
[Off-topic] Drakknar:
As I'll to go to London to spend my xmas holidays, I was thinking to get a new PAYG SIM card to stay in touch easily w my friends. Besides text messagging and voice calls, I'll need a flat 3G data plan to be able to connect to the web (IM, Mail, basic web browsing, GMaps) and to use my phone as a modem (same use as before, plus hopefully to be able to download HSPL for HD2 and some customized ROMs lol).

I tried to check the T-Mo, O2 and Vodafone UK websites, but it seems that by using PAYG I can only get any kind of free internet a month after my first refill.

Does anyone knows if there's some carrier which has an offering that will allow me to use my PAYG account for my data needs?
[Off-topic] mancsoulja:
on vodafone you only pay £1 A day for unlimited internet :)
[Off-topic] Drakknar:
Can you please give me a reference on their website? Becaused based on the info I found on the PAYG page, I discovered that the basic £1 data pack is for 15MB in a day, and then I get charged £2 for every additional MB.

On Vodafone UK, the only alternate offer I was able to find is a plan called Data Plus pack which allow me to have full internet usage (including voip and P2P) and it costs £10 a week plus a daily browsing charge of 50p a day for 25MB of data. I was hoping to find something cheaper and not as strict about data usage.

Like for example my current data plan on VodafoneIT, which is 3€ a week for 3GB of data, always on PAYG :-P
