[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] reidler:
When I got my phone (HTC TP2) the first day I used it, it dialed numbers in my pocket and people complained to me. I could not believe that HTC would put out software with such a blatant bug. I looked on line and found that many people had that problem. I found Touch Lock Pro and that was the first software I downloaded. I tried it for a while but had problems because of HTC. This phone has some ongoing problems. I already told you about the vibrating problem (which has not happened yet since I installed v3.8.1 and turned off the phone's notification vibrations). (But I still use the incoming call vibration so I'm still wondering if that bug will show up again). Another problem is that the speaker turns off and I have not yet been able to figure out why. I have to reboot the phone to get it back on. Another problem is that the accelorometer stops working. The phone just stops knowing when it turns sideways or straight up, down, etc. I also never figured out why. I have to reboot the phone to get it back on. It seems to be an HTC TP2 software problem, not just my physical phone. (There are some more issues as well like if I'm in a bad phone signal reception area the whole phone freezes up - very frustrating). Anyway I could not use Touch Lock Pro because of this problem. I also remember trying the TAPI from Touch Lock Pro and it did not work on my TP2. I was very frustrated with the phone then. Then I found S2U2. I got that to work to stop the unwanted calls. It also has something to control phone calls and my TP2 did not work with that either. So I use the regular TP2 phone interface which is not so bad. It has a feature that when while on a call if I put the phone down flat it turns on the speakerphone. Of course if that other accelorometer bug pops up then that feature does not work. Or if the speakerphone bug pops up then that's another reason it might not work.

I was very happy when I found that you made Battclock a separate program. It's the most important program I have that makes me like my phone as I wrote before. I would love if you added a feature to Battclock to control incoming calls but I don't have the nerve to ask you for that. You've done so many excellent things with it so far. You had also made a few special fixes just for me. Remember? Like if a register dissapears when it is zeroed out - you made Battclock understand that it should be 0. Thank you. I am a very big fan!

After I sent the message about using the clock time as a starting point instead of counting cpu cycles I realized that idea is not good because that way if the phone was turned off when it is turned back on the counter would include the time that the phone was turned off. You don't want that. You want to know exactly how much time the phone was on and using the battery.

I have a question for you. On my phone there is a feature that lets me turn off the sound. There's also a feature that let's me turn off the sound and the vibrations - it's called Silence phone. Sometimes I need to completely silence the phone because vibrations can also be heard by other people. I often have to use that silence feature. I noticed today that I turned it on to silent mode and when Battclock sent me a notification that it did vibrate regularly. It did not play the sound. So I'm thinking that when I tell the phone to turn off the sound by putting it in vibrate or silent mode, the phone itself actually turns off the speaker (not all of the speaker because I can still use the speakerphone). But in silent mode I wonder if the phone does not turn off the vibrator, it just does not vibrate on any of its notifications or incoming calls. But maybe other programs like Battclock are not affected by the that silent mode. I could shut down Battclock but I don't like to do that. Do you have any ideas about this and what I can do? Thanks very much.
