Hello all,
Does anyone know if there is a program that allows you to set various ring profiles like on the nokia phones. This is a very useful and quick way of changing ring settings. :roll:
Hi,
I use phone alarm from pocketmax and have done for about 6 months. I think it works perfectly especially when getting on a flight.
www.pocketmax.net
Hope that helps,
M.
Or try PocketZenPhone, it's much easier that PocketAlarm.
Try PocketZenPhone, is the better!!
Have to say originally I tried - ok 6 months ago - PocketZenPhone and didn't like it. It hung alot and just didn't integrate well. Haven't tried the newer version.
Phone alarm though I like for the following reasons:
1. Allows MP3 SMS tones
2. Repeating alarms (like Motorola) to avoid missing alarms
3. Integration with WebIS mail
4. Integration into Today screen
5. Skins
6. GPRS settings
7. General notification settings
It seems to do what PocketZenPhone does and more. Just my opinion though
M. :lol:
Here you go!
Hi mates,
I have spent several days looking for a phone profiler (ala Nokia) as much simple as possible... no whistles and bells, no bloatware... just profiles.
I miserably failed!
So I decided to develop myself a software solution to accomplish this simple task.
I am so happy with it that I have decided to share it with you.
It is completely FREE. Take it as it is, of course!
I've been using it for several weeks now, and could not experience any failures. Nonetheless there could be bugs or malfunctionings I would be glad to fix if you let me know.
My "Phone Profiles" includes a control panel Applet to change your settings and a Today Item plugin to easily select or change the current profile.
Just select the today item, tap-n-hold (or hold the action button down) to display a popup menu with your profiles.
For all the CLaunch lovers, it also possible to activate a given profile from a command line using the following sintax:
ctlpnl.exe profiler.cpl, n, 1
where n is the profile number. Change 1 to 0 if you want just to edit the profile's settings.
This software has been tested on WM2003SE Phone Edition only.
That's all, I guess.
Enjoy.
M. Panzica (aka Silver Bullet)
UPDATED: Looks like it does not work properly if compiled with VS2005. Recompiled with eVC4. Please re-download. Sorry.
Pocket Zen Phone can be found at http://zendrui.free.fr/ :wink:
@TheBrit
Do you mean you didn't like mine ?
@slvrbllt - does your profiler work on WM5 - I have a universal and am interested to know if it works on that. I can't test it on it tho just now cuz it's away for repair
@NinjaDonkey:
Nope, buddy.
As far as I know it doesn't work (yet) on WM5, since I use API calls that require the code to be signed. I am currently working on a new version that is supposed to be running on WM5 as well... stay tuned.

I'm sure yours is just fine.
I've been using PZP for a while now and it really does the trick. It not only profiles ring tones but lots of other settings too. 8)
...and here is the ITALIAN version many of you have requested.
Cheers.
hi! i'm a new magician user. may i ask how will I install your Profiler to my phone?
Try PocketZenPhone or PhoneAlarm
Those 2 should be the best in the market now
I just try both of them as of late
And I must say I choose PhoneAlarm better than PZP, PZP is a little slow and would hang once in a while
Plus PhoneAlarm got more feature like billing info, better skining...ext
@Silver Bullet: Could you post some screenshots please?
Greetings,

PZP has full instuctions here: http://zendrui.free.fr/

Hi,
I just downloaded and installed your little program on my Magician, and I am seriously impressed! The Today DLL is a mere 12k, and everything works flawlessly so far!
Great job - thanks a lot!
Would you allow me a few comments, in no particular order?
- your program needs a name.
- the GPRS problem that PZP has seems to not exist in your program - well done! I'm almost convinced to switch...
- this thread here is about the three existing profiles programs. Could we have a separate thread for your program?
- would you care to comment how you manage to switch on/off Bluetooth? I remember that for Zendrui this was not easy to implement. Does your program also handle Widcomm stacks?
- I would be interested in a German version, and if you send me a string table, I'd be more than happy to to provide German translations.
- one wish: I certainly do not want all of the settings PZP offers, but there are a few I do miss:
-- setting the volume for system sounds. There are situations where any sound is unacceptable, even the beeps when tapping.
-- set the backlight time-out. For example, when I navigate, I do not want the backlight to turn off at all.
-- backlight level independently for battery and charging mode.
Yes, I know that this already sounds like beginning featuritis. But afaik all these settings are simple registry entries, so should not bloat the code. Trying to put this into the UI may be a bit tricky. Well, just my personal wishes - feel free to ignore if you disagree.
Overall, I find it a really well-done little program. Thanks a lot again!
Cheers
Daniel
In my opinion the best is Profiler :lol: Very simple and friendly program.

Hi slvrbllt,
Just been to your site. Many thanks for the cycle bluetooth app, just what I was looking for.
I tried your Phone Profiles app and its good but unfortunately conflicts with my Qtek firmwares flight mode - it's a long story.
Anyway I'm trying to remove the app but finding it a little difficult. It keeps saying that /windows/profiler.dll is open or read only even after a soft reset. Any ideas how I can remove the app? It suggests doing a stop all but no apps are listed there.
Thank you,
hi slvrbllt!! Can we assign only a vibration for the new SMS without ringing (for a silent profile for example with a vibration for the ring)? Thanks for this great update!bye

@slvrbllt,
Very nice app. you can expect Dutch translations soon. Only thing I like as an improvement is small buttons to quick pick a profile or a possibility to put it in the tray.
Cheers, M
Hmm, looks Good...

Thanks, I gave it a try but it has problems with flightmode also (note. these problems seem to be due to a particular Qtek firmware). I think I'll stick with radiooff and CicleBT. Thanks for the info though.
I've downloaded and installed the software, it look good !!
But when I get an incomming call the callerid popup appears followed by a short beep, not the ringtone I setup in the profile... What am I doing wrong ??
Regards,
Dennis :?
I installed it on my Dopod 818 Pro and it was working fine. However I noticed that the ringtone I assign for any profile is disregarded! It always plays the default ringtone.
So I had to remove it
[Posted to wrong thread]
I can't even install it... I just have this cab(?) file called Winmobileapps_PhoneProfiles.zip but what do I do with it? If I unzip it to my home pc, three files come out from it but none of them is an installation file (.exe)
-John
Try this link http://www.modaco.com/index.php?act=Attach&type=post&id=15580 then
Yeah, but the specific thing here is; Where do I put the CAB file on my device - which directory??? As you can see I don't know ANYTHING about Win CE
-John
Hi John,
you'll get used to it. I suggest you put the .cab on your SD-card, either via Act.Sync, a card reader or direct download with Pocket Internet Explorer (PIE). Then click it from within File Explorer to install. I've installed it to my storage folder (not the default location) & it runs well.
Another suggestion: get caninstl (google for it), then you can choose where to install cab-files far more easily & it got an option not to delete the cab after finishing the installation.
Regards, M
Nice work slvrbllt, everything that was missing in your first post in now in it. You made me happy hehe
V1.2.0 is out!
Question for Silver Bullet: I saw there is a new feature: Hi-Res icons added.
What is exactly the feature is (I haven't install v1.2.0 yet)?
Thanks!
Regards,
Arto.
@artosoft
Hi-res Icons are for VGA devices only... ;-)
Thanks for your appreciations.
is it possible to set a vibration to an incoming SMS without a ringtone?thanks
Hi slvrbllt, i have tried your other app Flightmode on my BA WM5 and it works great. I have a question on Phone Profiles; would it be possible to add control over the backlight and power save options? This would be helpful to create a profile for "Car" for instance where i need the backlight on and power save disabled for my GPS and would be easier to setup a profile to do this.
Thanks for your applications and hard work.

sadly this is the part PDA lacking in terms of basic phone function. Do take a look at "spb phone suite". Its my fav profiler for wm5
well i found O2 thingi and now its working well.
people here at this place are doing one heck of a good job.
clap
Do take note of the performance and batt life. Heard lots of issue with it. personally i prefer spb phone suite. Try it, u will prefer it to the o2 plus

Hello All,
This is NiCK Carty from www.PocketPC-Live.com and I was here in xda for a very long time at the Artemis and Kaiser sections serving the community, even released a couple of slim Roms for Artemis (HTC P3300). Now that I have got myself a new HTC Athena (dopod U1000) after being impressed by the processor 624 Mhz Intel, I will enter this section now.
My first impressions on the device, it's damn good, probably better option to those who look for a UMPC.
As a welcome note, I would like to give 7 copies of my software Ultimate Theft Alert v35! (recently optimized for Athena under real VGA 128 dpi). The next 7 replies to this post will be eligible for the free offer. Download the trial version from here and mail me for Product keys.
I would love to hear your suggestions for my software.

Thanks Carty for your free gift. Will try it out tonight when I get some free time.
Edit: okay, installed it. It looks really really good. I like it better than WIMP if the monitoring integration can be installed.
I have a few questions.
1) I entered +614XXXXXXXX as my number to call when the phone is stolen, but it does not accept it. Why is this so? What if a SIM card of another country is inserted when we travel?
2) Often the top taskbar disappear. Do you have this problem? I also find that I'm unable to minimise it or switch to other applications when used in conjunction with wktask.
3) How do we make it possible for the problem to survive a hard reset?
4) How about letting the seven of us have the GPS and monitoring integration also? Or at least the monitoring integration. I like your concept of monitoring very much. I have been using WIMP in the past with GPS, but I find the GPS location to be too rough to be useful. I think the monitoring concept gives us much better chance of recovering the phone than WIMP would allow.
Fantastic application! Thanks again.

Replace + with 00. Eg: 00614XXX Try it and let me known. It is the issue with some service providers who dont accept the format of message sent with certain parameters.

The application is made to take the full screen hiding the Start bar. This is only when you're in the Admin panel making some configurations. So for a few minutes, you can sacrifice Start ar ?
Or do you think the application doesnt bring back Start bar even after closing?

Depending on in which country the phone is stolen, the international prefix is different. But + is the universally acceptable prefix to replace all these prefix. That's why I thought it would be the correct way to set up the number.
BTW, I tried testing it. Unfortunately it does not seem to be sending out any SMS alert to the listed mobile phone number when I put in a SIM card which has not been added to the database yet. Are any of the other six users having this problem?
Also, when I tried to set up the customized text, the software abended with an error message saying "An unexpected error has occured in UTAv35.exe. Select Quite and then restart this program, or select Details for more informaiton" . When I select Details, I see the following information:
UTAv35.exe
NullReferenceException
at UTAv35.Form1.Button19_Click()
at System.Windows.Forms.Control.OnClick()
at System.Windows.Forms.Button.OnClick()
at System.Windows.Forms.ButtonBasel.WnProc()
at System.Windows.Forms.Control._InternalWnProc()
at Microsoft.AGL.Forms.EVL.EnterMainLoop()
at System.Windows.Forms.Application.Run()
at UTAv35.Form1.Main()
I wonder if this (the inability to set up customise text, hence it is blank) is the reason why no alert message was sent?
There's a nice software for windows mobile devices called GSM Locator and you can find it at
http://www.handango.com/catalog/ProductDetails.jsp?storeId=2218&productId=246582
It uses GSM Cell Information and assigning various actions to be performed automatically when you enter or leave a specific place: set alarm, switch current theme, change ring tone , change volume , change ringer mode,change phone status ,change phone status ,change bluetooth status , send SMS ,Run Exe or e-mail message
It's a really nice software i'm using it on my HTC Tytan II Device and it working nice, you can try it for free for 13 days.
Enjoy It
It is something I have been thinking about for a while... Does it allow to change the profiles manually from the today plugin? Or to switch the WiFi or Bluetooth on/off?
Changing Profile Manually
GOOOOOD IDEA ,, but it dosn't switch profile manually it uses the cell information to switch profile automatically ,,
But they will take it into considration in next release ,, I sent your idea to them and they replyed this feature will included in next relase next FEB,, if you have another suggestions you can mail them at [email protected]
Guys,
for that matter, better use PhoneAlarm - it can't be beat http://www.pocketmax.net/phoneAlarm.html

Guys ,, GSM Locator is the better Location Based Profiler till now ,so don't miss the change to try it ,,
Another vote for Phone Alarm here - it really is not that complicated, and is very skinnable etc.

any way we can't compare GSM Locator with phoneAlarm because they are diffrent ,,
phone alarm aims to make phone usage more simpler and it gives users some profiling capabilities
but GSM Locator is a "Location Based Profiler" it aim to customize you phone settings based on your location throw a list of activites like
Change Device Volume
Change Phone Volume
Change Ringtone
Change Ringer Mode
Change Bluetooth state
Send SMS to a Pocket Outlook contact
Change Theme
Set Alarm
Start an executable file (.exe)
Change Phone State (ON ,OFF Flight Mode)
Also it can integrate with any other software using "start an executable activity". this feature gives you the ability to do any thing you want.
Much more GSM Locator support schedules that you can use to customize you setting on time bases without changing the profile.
You can use schedules to activate flight mode at night and turn it off at the morning or changing windows mobile theme once at the morning , at the evening ,at the night ,, etc,,
And you can get all those features with just 34.99 $ , WOW so great
GSM Locator is really different and powerfull
http://www.handango.com/catalog/ProductDetails.jsp?storeId=2218&deviceId=1149&platformId=30&productId=246582
Hey, PhoneAlarm does all this too, and much much more!
Besides location based profiler, it also incorporates Calendar and time-based profilers etc etc. GSM Locator is just one of the locator options, others also being wi-fi, cell broadcast, SIM-low resolution, and GPS. And PA's profiles are fully packed with an enormous number of features.
Dear nallvaico
We are not here for fighting we just sharing our experiences with the two software products ,, I used the both and I selected GSM Locator and also I see phoneAlarm not easy to use than GSM Locator .
this is my opinion as i'm free and this is ur opinion so, no problem at all ,, i see GSM Locator good for me.
and I advice people who searching for such software products to try GSM Locator
http://www.handango.com/catalog/ProductDetails.jsp?storeId=2218&deviceId=1149&platformId=30&productId=246582
And at the end of the day people can try the both products and decide which one is better for them comparing to the features the get and the cost they pay ,, take it easy dear

LOOOOOOOOOOOL(s) , i'm not working for any anyone else. I bought a software ,, and I see it's a good software product that's all ,,
Then, you seem a little too eager, I was thinking of trying the app but you seem too pushy with the "this is the greatest app ever attitude." That is why people are suspecting you. In XDA we are already see people plugging paid apps as a bit dubious, specially when they get as defensive as you have when someone mentions an alternative. I am positive I am not the only one who thinks that way.
In the spirit of XDA-Devs I am going to test the freeware app on my Hermes first, will report later.
In my experience PhoneAlarm, although being very very good software, makes my device sluggish and unresponsive. And I am not alone in this view. I have been using it for about a year, then switched to a simpler SPB something, then Phone Weaver... The phone feels much quicker without PA (same for Trinity and Omnia).
So I do understand that PA is not for everyone and GSM Locator may do the job better.
Are you guys reps of PA by any chance??
No - just a fan.
As I said, best thing is try them all - in the end I had no such issues with PA and still use it.
