Automatic Speaker Phone + Profile Question - 8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General

Hi,
I noticed when I had the O2 UI set up (following a standard hard reset and choosing home user) there was an applet called Profiles. I have since hard reset again and chosen corporate and no longer have the side or bottom tabs on the today page, but notice that there doesn't seem to be a profile manager or profile app, does anyone know of any software you can use to have different profiles?
The reason I want it is so that I can set up a profile for use in the car whereby all calls are automatically set to speaker phone when I answer them, is this possible too?
Cheers

You should try phone alarm by pocketmax. It does exactly what you want!

thanks, I'll give it a try

??? Has anyone MY|PHONE PROFILES ???

Has anyone this great app?
http://geocities.com/myppcpe2003/index.htm
Maybe a key for it?
I'D like to use it :twisted:
It appears to be the best prog that I've looked for to switch my XDA2 to a changeable caller profile phone like a nokia!
I liked this app initially, great interface and lots of functionality, however I found a few problems:
Sometimes after changing profiles the ring would be silent when it should be heard - the dialog would pop up showing the caller, but no sound.
You can set it to automatically revert to the normal profile after <n> minutes, or at a certain time. For me this only happened when the XDA was on - thus if it should have switched profile and then a call comes in before you have switched on the device it still uses the wrong profile.
If these problems can be sorted it would be a great app.
As for a key... go to PocketGear and but it!
Yeahh..So It's not a perfect software again.
Do you know any program that analyze the caller from the contacts and you can select for example just one number or one goup to receive? The other ignored or silent like Nokia phones.
I have come across MUTX RingToneX which allows you to set ring tones by contact or category so this may well give you what you want. Can't tell you how good it is, but you can get a free trial from the link below:

Thx for the answer but I'm looking for an app with easy switching between sound profiles.
For example:
A) MODE
Every unknown number has RINGTONE1
FAMILY group has RINGTONE2
FRIENDS group has RINGTONE3
MY CARALARM SYSTEM (has a mobile calling function) has RINGTONE4
...etc.
B) MODE
Every unknown number is silent or ignored
Every other group than MY CARALARM SYSTEM is silent or ignored
MY CARALARM SYSTEM is ringing and answered (at night while I'm sleeping I want to receive just the call from my car's alarm system)
It's just a simple thing that a lot of phone's using. (Nokia & others)
I hope somebody understands my problem and knows an apllication with the ability I wrote above.
Thx
I think (not sure!) that you need a combination of two programs:
JGUI My Phone Profile AND IA Caller ID (OR Caller2picture)

THanx the answer but I'm sure (not think) that I don't need the combination you wrote because My phone profile can switch just sound profiles with setting the ring volume or vibrating, IA caller ID can add a picture to a call, Caller2picture can add a ringtone and a picture to a call.
But I need what I wrote upper, please read it perfectly, because it is something different.
I need a software that has the ability to verify a caller-group and for example you can reject all number/call except the caller-group you set like with Nokia phones.
ANYBODY DOES UNDERSTAND WHAT I WANT???????
Maybe because I'm from Hungary and my english is not so well..... :?
My Phone Profile 3.1
My Phone Profile 3.1Full
Reg Code: TMPP-1177-JGUI
Have a fun!
If you have an XDA II, you don't need to get the IA Caller ID because it's already on the XDA II. IA Caller ID is called Photo Contacts in the XDA II.
Caller2picture can add a ring tone to a group. Whenever you want to reject a specific group, give it a silent ring tone.
@VHS: bad boy... i don't think that this should be made public... software worth using is worth bying.
hehe ...bad not bad, but apart from that a/m ...
discussion has been pretty much interesting to me as to sound profiles etc, I have been also looking for some time for software allowing for easen phone handling

Finger Clix
Check this:

It is the best phone dialer ever!
thank you
I wolud give it a try

monika
:? :x :evil:
So..Nobody understands what I want.
OK.
Tekflow:
Thanx, but I know that I can set a silent ringtone for a group with one of these softwares. But I NEED SOMETHING DIFFERENT:
I have a car within a mobile-phone-alarm-system. If somebody does something with my car, this mobile (in my car) calls my mobile phone which is with me. So, usually (always) I switch off my phone by night. But if I switched off my phone I would never know my car's calling. That's why when I had a Nokia7650 I can set a profile called Night-profile which has the settings with all calls + all groups has a silent ringtone and my Car-alarm-number has a loud-sirene-ring. That caused when somebody called me except my car my phone was silent. When my car called it ringed with the highest level. And if somebody wanted to stole my car I had heard it. But not now. Because I don't want everybody to call me from 6 a.m., that's why I switch off my phone, but if I switch off my phone I can't hear if my car's calling me.
That's what I can't set in my XDA2.
With no any of your suggested programs.
I know all of them, and I know none of them has the ability I wrote upper.
SO........SOMEBODY UNDERSTANDS WHAT I WANT TO SAY SINCE DEC.05.???????????????????????????????????????????????????????
p.s.:I think so that FingerClix is the best dialling program for the XDA (I use it), but I need another thing, not just for dialling or to give a ring volume for all numbers and groups. My phone profiles can set just a general volume and vibrate settings without any choice to give a different volume for just one group or one phone number like Nokia.
(Maybe since dec.5 there's an update for MyPhoneProfiles or for the others and they have expandable ability?)
I (hopefully) understand what you talking about (have had a Nokia for years...), but i'm not aware of such a tool at this time for the MDA/XDA.
regards,
If I understand you: you need a program that gives you the opportunity of turning off the sound of the telephone for all incoming calls except one number or one group of numbers, or, better, to make call barring for all calls except for one number or one group of numbers (some kind of filtering). I also don't know if this kind of program is available for the Pocket PC Phone. Anyone on the forum aware of this ?
anybody has version 5?
I think what Tuningszocske want is something like Blacklist in Nokia Symbina phones. I know of a Chinese program call CallerFirewall, it allows one to add contacts to black or white list, you can choose to block all contact in black list, receive call only from white list or block all incoming calls etc. This program is compatible with dopod686、O2XDA、T-Mobile、and LegendT108.

My Mogul List

I've owned my HTC Mogul for 5 days and have been keeping a list of questions or issues I have about the device. Sadly it has grown and grown. I've only owned it for 5 days, so it's possible that there's a setting I missed, but I have been through the menus many times.
I have done soft resets and hard resets (two soft keys plus reset key together). No third party software.
OUTLOOK EMAIL
activesync set to "as items arrive" for peak and off peak, direct push enabled but doesn't push new
messages to the phone. I'm using an activesync server with dp.
push doesn't work even when outlook is open, have to click send/rcv to get new msg.
closest I have come is once I got notified with alarm 10 minutes after email was sent. I have sound notify enabled for new emails. Don't know why it worked this one time and not the other 99%.
no setting to "send and receive at startup", even as an option?
Oultook email has locked up twice, had to do soft reset
INTERNET EXPLORER
IE has locked up twice, had to do soft reset
SOUNDS
no option to choose which email account to enable a sound notification for? So I have to get notified for all or none (not that notification works anyway, see above)
alarms don't go off if device in sleep mode, which is most of the time?
---
MISC.
blue/yellow light flash constantly, what purpose? Is the phone also an aircraft? why so bright?
Volume on the phone is too loud, even when turned all the way down (not the speakerphone volume). I guess that's better than the reverse, but why not let it be turned down to 0?
The whole point of a volume control is so people can adjust to the volume they want. Yesterday I was on the phone with Sprint (again), I had one of those foam earplugs in my left ear, then the included headphone bud on top of that and it was _still_ to loud. I work around fans all day, a room with huge computer systems and I'm probably half deaf from it.
---
PHONE
no setting to set # of rings before it goes to VM
can't use data and voice at the same time
---
PICTURE
no way to delete a pic while viewing? as in touch and hold for a menu to pop up (like IE) or even a delete option on the menu (while the pic is open) You have to "OK" out of the pic, then remember the file name to delete from the list.
---
PROGRAMS
progs. don't actually close when you X out, they stay running in the background. Have to go through 5 taps, then manually close them. No way to change this even as an option?
---
Keyboard backlight works 10% of the time. I have unchecked the "autosensor" box. Happens in a pitch black room also.
---
EVDO
I get ~450kbps in a speed test to dslreports.com. I know that's technically in sprint's advertised window for Rev0 "400-700 Kbps" but I'm squarely in the EVDO coverage area, not on a fringe or in the boonies.
Sprint is sending me a new phone because I know the backlight issue is a defect. But some of these things are just bad design.

Rings before going to voice mail....that is a setting in your voice mail box... I don't know of ANY Sprint phone that has an "in phone" setting for that....
Closing programs, search the forum for HTC X-BUTTON 2.0.
Delete a picture while viewing in the default viewer, click and hold, then select DELETE......
Anthony thanks for your response. I just dialed vm and I did not find any option in any of the menus to set # of rings before calls go to vm.
When I tap/hold the screen while viewing a pic with default viewer, nothing happens.
I know there are third party apps so thanks for the info on x-button, but I'm going to wait for my 2nd Mogul to arrive before taking time to research and install them.
# of rings to voice mail
that is a service from your provider.... for me it's *93"#"
"#" is the number or rings.... i think it's 9... call your provider and ask them

Goodlink and Automatic Profile Switching Issues

I've had to install Goodlink on my Hermes which the admins have set up to automatically lock the phone after 20 min. You then need to type in a password to access the today screen.
While my phone is locked, profile switching using Phone Alarm or any other automatic timed profile switch programs (Phoneweaver, PWM, Profiles for Windows etc) refuse to switch the profile unless the phone is manually unlocked just before the profile is switched. It's as if Goodlink locks all application activity when the phone is locked.
However it doesn't prevent Windows Mobile App alarms such as SMS, Phone, Calendar, Tasks waking up the phone and ringing but for some reason the profile switchers refuse to work.
Given that I've tried several profile switching programs (I'm a long time user of PA by pocketmax but tried all the others), I'd love to know if anyone knows any hacks that can help get around this issue with Goodlink. Any hacks to get around the phone lock would be much appreciated
Any suggestions?
Hi,
You can get around the Goodlink mandatory locking by changing a registry setting.
Use your trusty registry editor and look for "ITLocked" and set it to 0.
After that goto Settings -> Lock and tick off "Prompt if device unused for".
You may need to try a couple of times as Goodlink will keep resetting it to 1.
good luck!

Add missing WP7/Omnia 7 functionality here

LIVE TILES/HOME SCREEN:
- Power control toggles (e.g. Bluetooth, WiFi, GPS, etc.)
OVERALL
- Marking/selection of any text passage, and
- Copy/paste (wtf, hasn't MS learned anything from the mistakes made by Apple...?)
ALARMS
- Display of alarm icon in the notification area of the 'home screen', when one or more alarms have been set (not ONLY on the lock screen)
PEOPLE
- Ability to save phone number in Call History or Conversations lists to existing/new contact
MEDIA PLAYER
- Sound playback in Bluetooth (+wired?) headphones when watching video content/podcasts
IE BROWSER
- Display of/access to URL in landscape mode
I agree with Copy and Paste, but have only needed it once or twice so am happy to wait until Jan or whenever they're gonna stick it in.
Hadn't noticed the ID landscape thing, but now you've pointed it out I guess they should probably sort that too (although there'd be very little view of the page by the time the keyboard and address bar are displayed in landscape mode)
You can save a number from your call history if you tap it, then at the bottom there's a save button.
The things I'd like to see fixed are:
MAPS
- Get the compass working so I can see what direction I'm walking in
INTERNET EXPLORER
- Ability to change what the search button does, and what page loads when you first start IE after switching the phone on. (T-mobile have managed to set both the homepage and the search button to point to the crappy t-mobile-favourites page, which is a bit annoying)
PICTURES
- See who's tagged in photos (either through Facebook or through Windows Live Photo Gallery)
- Ability to stop photos from Facebook showing up - these may be duplicates from what you've already put on the device
PHONE
- It would be good to have smart dialling available rather than having to go through contacts
One think really annoys me: We cannot disable vibration on back, win and search keys.
Missing Send Contact
I'm not sure if this is missing content or if I'm being too stupid to work it, but that's not my usual style so I'm assuming it's missing till someone puts me straight.
I wanted to send a contact by text (or any other method) today but can't seem to find out how to do this.
Any ideas?
I don't think theres a solution for this.
I heard someone saying before, that there is not a nice way available to send/ copy contact-data.
Bluetooth SIM Access Profile
Anyone know if the Bluetooth SIM Access Profile will be coming in the next update? New phone doesn't work with my bloody car = I feel like I've just stepped back in time
Added the following to the first post:
ALARMS
- Display of alarm icon in the notification area of the 'home screen', when one or more alarms have been set (not ONLY on the lock screen)
Sticky camera settings
CAMERA
--------
I change the settings for the camera every time I take a photo. Particularly the "anti-shaking" setting as I can't seem to take a decent photo with that off. Settings always revert to defaults. Makes you wonder why there is a "Rever to default" option!

I noticed that today, as i also found myself taking better pics with the anti shake on. Other half tried to take a photo of herself and ended up asking me to take the pic, of which i found that setting off....odd
I would like vibrate on screen buttons as well as the hardware buttons.

Switch power off when charging the phone: should have the ability to switch off the phone when it is charging. It is not possible to do it now.
2G/3G toggle: The Omnia & I got from Orange doesn't have the option to toggle between 3G and 2G. It is set for 3G as default
Smart dialing: The dialer should display contacts that match the combination of letters/numbers being dialed
Tasks sync: Outlook should sync tasks in addition to Mail, Contacts and Calendar
Calendars: WP7 should sync all calendars in GMail and Hotmail. It only syncs the default calendar.
My wish list
I'd like:
Folders
Folders - want folders that I can pin items inside, ideally on both main 'Tile' screen and app list. Would really help to be able to organise apps into folders as the list is getting long already.
Volume
Would like different volume controls for Media and ringing. Would like these to be locked when the phone is locked too (unlocking the phone is no hasstle after all).
Caching/Updating
Would like apps like Facebook to cache data (only a few do this). I expect not an OS issue as some apps do it already - having them load from fresh when started is a pain as it means you need signal to look at content. I'd also like these apps to update automatically so content it there when they are opened.
Single Mailbox
Would like a single mailbox for all incoming mail.
Sim Lock
I use a Pin to protect my sim, if I miss entering this in initial boot the phone brings up a home screen but allows Emergancy calls only - getting to a point I can enter the Pin seems pointlessly difficult (seem to have to try and make a call).
Zune
Why is this so unintuitive....get rid of reserved space and clean it up. Content also seems very US centric, online (as in via the website) I can see a load more content than I can see in the app itself, presume this is due to me being in the UK.
Back and Search buttons
Allow apps to lock these buttons, lose count of how many times I have pressed these accidentally when playing a game or a video which gets really annoying.
Power button
Give me a 'do you want to shutdown' prompt, only found my phone turned off in my pocket a few times but not had it that long....the button is too easy to press accidentally and a prompt would solve a lot of these problems.

Orange provide this functionality for me by giving no 3G signal at home, would be better if I could choose to turn it on and off though...reliable 2G at home would also be good...
PEOPLE
- Ability to save phone number in Call History or Conversations lists to existing/new contact
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
You can do that.
Just in Call History press the phone number that want to save and then press the Save icon.
my wishlist:
1. PHONE:
- matching contacts should appear when dialling number or texting person's name
- call recording possibility would be a nice touch.
2. PEOPLE huB
- more customisation options (contacts sources sorting/hiding
3. MESSAGING:
- ability to edit MMS settings (MMS APN, default photo size, etc)
4. EMAIL/CALENDAR HUB:
- I do not like the idea of LIVE being leading account - If I add my live accoutn all the contacts and calendars are being fetched from there and synced live.
But I used to keep all my contacts and calendars at gmail - so I had to add gmail as well - that results in a big mess and you cannot turn your added LIVE account now - you might reset your phone to factory defaults and start again.
so I did and while I want my XBOX LIVE avatar I had to move all my contacts and other email providers to LIVE. I did that but now my default outlook calendar doesnt sync with LIVE calendar and WP7 calendar, and there is now ay to have it fixed...
If only MS would allow to choose what to import from LIVE it would be much better...
5. IE - no JAVA, no comment
MARKETPLACE - we need more quality software there
MAPS - I don't like bing approach, maybe I just have to get used to it ?
SERVICE AVAILABILITY - MS you need to start working hard and deliver solutions NOW!
It should not happen that only supported regions during the premiere are UK and US - your services like marketplace or zune don't work in many countries, XBOX Live is not supported in Poland, although there are tens of thousands of xbox360 sold here. I am afraid MS has to rethink their policies and this will be the main factor of WP7 success or fail.
I do not touch areas like multitasking, copy/paste and some other basics that should already be available in updates.
Just realized: Someone's actually made an app for submitting and voting for already submitted ideas for improvements to WP7. It's called "My WP7 Idea", and yes, it already contains my favourite ideas. USE IT!

User/MP3 Ringtones... allowing the ability to choose own mp3 ringtones
I don't like this thread being mixed wp7 and omnia specific features. wp7 features should go into the wp7 forum.
the omnia should get an app to turn on and off the led for flashlight purposes. other phones have that.

Setting different ringtone on people.

How is this possible on the tab ? I am trying to find out myself for quite some time now and i cant seem to find it.
I am on JM6
Go to file manager open any mp3 file via the default music player, click the menu key, it gives two options share and set as, when you go to set as it gives option to set as video call, voice call, specific user, etc etc.

On mine that doesn't work, as the contact list showing after chosing "set as" is totally empty, thus search don't give any results (despite my samsung app contact list have 200+ entries sync with google contacts).
Is there a way to access the default contact list to ad phone numbers to show there? I wonder why the default contact list and the samsung app one aren't linked...
Just open it fromhe the music player it self dont run the music just from the music library long press then set as or download ring extender from the market
Nope. There is a bug on the tab about this. All my contacts were synchronized/imported from google contacts and facebook. They appear on the contact list. But none of them show on the last selection operation trying to assign a ringtone/mp3 to, search function does not help, empty list.
I added a test contact manually on the phone. This one shows up.
Contacts are not imported each time i boot the GT, but they are not stored on the phone list.
Am i missing something? Any way copying all contacts to phone?
I may try the app you mentioned to see if it works.
Sent from my GT-P1000 using XDA App
App didnt work.
Found that on the contact list you can modify a contact entered manually and set a ringtone direcly there.
But on sync contacts (all of mine...) when i tap "modify" i get a "impossible to modify
SNS contacts on this phone"
annoying as i use a bt headset and different ringtones would have helped me to guess whos calling before picking up without taking the phone out.
Sent from my GT-P1000 using XDA App
Can't even add ppl to groups...
Course, the preferred way this /should/ work is you set the mp3 YOU want as your theme tune, then when you call people, they hear your theme tune playing.
One of the voip apps should enable this! (with an option to turn it off of course when it's abused!).
solved
OK, just to let you know that after several attempts I finally found two solutions on my own.
First one consists in a light app, meant to "cut" quite precisely mp3 wavefiles located on your device to produce rigngtones: its name is "Ringdroid" from Ringdroifd team. The second one is the well known "Zedge", a pick & share ringtones app. Both allow setting a ringtone to every contact, even if it's a synchronized one thus not showing in the default phone adress book when trying to assign through basic music apps.
I tried and it worked.
These two apps are the only ones I fond working in purpose at the moment.
Shame this wasn't on stock feature.
Enjoy your tab
