Here is a list of command line parameters:
-toggle - toggle vibrate (i.e. toggle beween sound on mode and vibrate mode);
-on - vibrate mode on (i.e. set vibrate mode);
-off - vibrate mode off (i.e. set sound on mode);
-noforce - do not switch if current state illegal (i.e., for example, if current mode is sound off and you run -toggle sound will stay off);
-togglevs - toggle vibra/silence (i.e. toggle beween sound off mode and vibrate mode);
-togglesnd - toggle sound (i.e. toggle beween sound on mode and sound off mode);
-offall - vibra and sound off;
But in most cases you do not must know this parameters, because, after installing .cab file you can use a links in Programs\ValeraVi\V_Vibrate for executing any of this commands. Also you can assign any command on hardware button, place it on your favorite today programs launcher , execute it at specified time from your favorite scheduler (vibrate mode at morning, sound on mode at evening, sound off mode at night ), etc.

Great Idea but...
Hi,
I have been searching it for a long time!!!!
But I've a Magician with WM2003.. :-(
Do you think it's possible to port it on WM2003?
Thks,
Norby

No, wm2003 do not have functions for changing vibrate mode of device, that i use. May be it is exist some other method, but i do not know. When i was using wm2003 on my BA, for turning vibrate mode on / off i used script for nScriptm that emulate stylus tap's on volume bubble. Not very convenient, but for use in schedulers it is enough. I attach that my script, if you interested , but i think you may need to correct some coordinates of taps and path to ns in .lnk...

Thanks!
Dear ValeraVi,
thank you for your fast response.
I have already thought makinge a script but I didn't known where to start.
So your script and your advice are precious!
Have a good week end!
Norby

CoooooooooooL
thank you so much

Hi Valera,
your tool is a great idea. I have installed it on WM5 on Qtek 9600, and the files show in the application folder, but when I assign a hardware button, I get a pop up saying the certificate may be unknown or a component is missing...
I installed in twice onto the memory card, but for some reason its always the same.
Do you have a clue ?
Greetings
Paddy

Is V_Vibrate.exe is exist in \Program Files\ValeraVi\V_Vibrate on your device?
V_Vibrate.exe is signed by dummy digital signature - may be for your rom/device it is not acceptable. You may try do disable digital signature checking...

ValeraVi,
Hi.. I was ever looking for something like this... Great you have done this, however, is it possible to control the way the vibrator activated? To further elaborate, for example if I chose music ringtone the vibration doesn't intermit because it's a song tone where there isn't a break. I really wondr if it's ever possible to have the vibration stop intermittently despite the nature of the ringtone chose?
cheers.

may be this link can help you:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=BA_Hacks
(scroll down to the "Phone Settings")
But if you mean to change behaviour of v0 srcipt - then no - i do not know how to change it... may be only by using other 3rd paty calledr id software ...

Thanks ValeraVi for your reply. The link you gave me is quite close to what I wanted, it's really useful and interesting, I tried changing v0 to v2, it vibrates just for 2 seconds and stop while the ringtone (because it's a minute long) was still ringing. I'm not sure if it can vibrate for 2 seconds then stop for 1 second then vibrate for 2 seconds again and so on...? (it's something like that that I was trying to find).
I'm not sure of any third party program that has this function, would you recommend any?
thanks bro.

sorry, i don't know...

This is NICE!!!
Thanx for this great tool! It does exactly what I want. Why didn't they build this into WM5 after all?!?
Thanx for all your effort made to create this little toy!

Interesting... I did something similar using Mortscript in combination with the registry hack "Change ringtone/vibrate/LED flash characteristics" on http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_Registry .
Basically, for every profiles I want, I made a script. The script changes the above regisry setting (some scripts ask using a yes/no dialog box if I want vibrate on or off). I have added a small twist though: the script also copies the file that is assigned as ringtone:
In one folder, I put all the ringtones I want to use (let's call them ring1, ring2, ...). In a second folder I have copies of these files (let's call these ringA, ringB, ...). The tones ringA, ringB, ... are selected as the ringtones (both for specific contacts as for the general ringtone and sms tone. The scripts for the profiles also include copy instructions, to overwrite the files ringA, ... with files from the folder where ring1, ... are stored. I suspect this will allow me to change ringtones depending on the profile I want (I have included a file with silence, to get the behaviour of call filtering).
As a list optimization, I use the registryhack "Put custom text on bottom-right of Today screen" to display the active profile on the todayscreen.
I say "suspect" for the ringtone changes, as I haven't been able to test if the phone system effectively use the files I replaced though (my device is now sent back a 2nd time for replacement ), or only reads those files once (and caches them somewhere).

My program is not changing anything in the registry. It is using documented API functions for control global sound mode of PPC. This API functions is exist only on WM5.

I check this for you - the system is using new files, i.e. the system do not cache them and re-read them in every use.

I used my method with the scripts, as I'm not a software developer but wanted this kind of functionality (scripts seemed to be the easiest way to go). I know it is far less elegant to edit the registry, but no program I found allowed for what I wanted.
What my scripts also allow, is to change the ringtone assigned for specific contacts. In my contacts, some people have their own ringtones assigned in the contacts application (for instance, my colleagues have their own, as does my family).
By using soundfiles which contain only silence, I can have a call filter functionality (e.g. copy a silent soundfile to all ringtones, except for the work-ringtone). Other calls will come through, but will be inaudible (system will play back a silent ringtone).
This filtering was something I miss in most ring-profile softwares I found.
I currently only use the registry setting to be able to make a difference between vibrate or not, but I could get the same functionality using your software...

I do not know where is located in the registry some parameter, which can control global sound mode of device. Thats why i wrote this tool, which (as i mentioned above) is used only documented Windows API functions and do not use registry. If in your script you want to control global sound mode of device - just run my program from your script with desired command line parameters.

Thanks. I've been looking for this tools for my script programming.

Just what I was looking for...
This little program is just what I was looking for! Thanks very much.

Hi, ValeraVi!
Make PLS a command line parameter for toggle beween sound on mode, sound off and vibrate mode (in one).

"Power Profiles" - is there such a program?

I suggested the following to Spb ( because I use Spb Pocket Plus & Spb Diary )
But mabye ( I know there is a tool for Ringtone Profiles, but I want more! ) there is a software out there that maybe does what I am looking for.
----
Hi, I have an idea for either a new product or a plugin for Pocket Plus. I call it "Power Profiles". As a business & private user of an MDA Vario I also have docking stations, one at home and one in the office.
Many MDA Vario Users ( which is basically the HTC Wizard ) use their PPC the same way I do. So bascially when I get into the office, first thing I do is turn of the phone volume and give the PPC only half the volume ( for appointments, reminders, etc. ).
One special thing on some dockingstations is that you can have your PPC sitting in front of you ( in the docking station ). My dock has the neat option that you have the MDA sitting their in landscape mode, which is great but also bad at the same time. Because with Diary & Pocket Plus installed in landscape their just isn't enough space on the screen.
So the Plugin would create Profile Shortcuts and do the following. I have two profiles setup, one called HOME the other called OFFICE.
I tap on a shortcut on the today screen (OFFICE) it:
1. Sets the volumes as I need them
2. Turns the screen into landscape
3. Turns off Pocket Plus ( or hides it, it only matters that Diary gets the full landscape view )
4. The Display light gets turned up all the way
Once I am on my way home, I tap on the another shortcut (HOME) which then:
1. Sets the volumes as I need them
2. Turns the screen into normal view
3. Turns ON Pocket Plus ( or makes it visible again )
4. The Display is set to my normal level ( two levels under the max )
Of course their could be lots more stuff that a realy Profile Program could/should do ( Different Ringtone Settings, Different Theme in the Office then at Home - don't wanna show your boss your girlfriend all the time now do you ;-), Different Items displayed on the Today Screen, etc. etc. )
So maybe you are able to think about my suggestions, it would be a great addition to your product portfolio I believe )
Very good idea! Not seen any software like that and just done a search in my normal sites - mainly freeware. Maybe a commercial one somewhere but none on a google search. Hope SPB listen to you
Hmm, funny, i was thinking in the same direction.
And why not let the 'Power on/off and 'USB connect' (etc) events trigger the profiles also ?
After developing the Tomtom Navigate2 script, i think i can do it, if i get enough information on the desired settings.
- Like BT on/off ; Needs a 'real' tool, there's no internal command, and changing regkey ain't enough.
So solved it with a script that calls BTon/BToff tool and changes regkey of the BT headset profile:
Ok, BT On/Off + BR Profile Toggle works !
What do i need then ?
"What setings should be changeable ? "
My suggestion :
- BT + BT HeadsetProfile (Done !)
- "ActiveSync when Craddled" option On/Off (Done !)
- Change Today Theme ? Would be nice.. (Not even looked at...)
The suggestions i just heard :
- Change ScreenRotation (isn't there a free tool for it ?)
- Change Today Items.
- Change Display Birgightness.
"How do we change these settings ?"
- BT is done,
- ASync is done,
- Screen rotation; Need commandtool (Doesn't VJ have a tool that does this ?) + Subroutine for script. So done, apart from writing it in the tool
- Screenrotation; if there is a commandtool for it, same as for 'Screen Rotation'
- Change Today items; Haven't got a clue, is thanging regkey and refersh today enough ?
- Display brightness; idem as Today Items....
So, let's get it rolling then
That would be so wonderful if this could be achieved! I have absolutly no plan on how do to it - but I have the ideas 8) :lol:
Pocket Plus lets you also rotate the screen with a tap on the screen, but what I wanted to achive is automation - simply by click ONE shortcut it does the whole thing for me - I am know I am a lazy person but hey thats a reason I got myself a PPC :wink:
This is similar to the one thing I miss from my nokia phones which is one click profiles for outdoor, indoor, meeting, etc. hope something comes of this.
What about PocketZenPhone???
PZP lets you set up anywhere from 2 to 7 profiles, controlling virtually everything you might associate with a profile, such as:
- ring / vibrate / volume / flash (and about a dozen variant combinations)
- the above for notification on just about any kind of event
- power settings for each profile both on battery and corded power
More features than it makes sense to list here. But I've been playing with it over the last couple of days. Very clean, and very functional. Many ways to use it also -
- today plugin (just tap an icon to switch profiles)
- task tray popup
- menu
- automated switching in sync with pocket Outlook
I've also traded email with the developer (zendrui) and it turns out to be pretty straightforward to get MS Voice Command to also switch profiles - I should have this all set up in the next hour. Love the idea of tapping the button to invoke Voice Command and just telling it to go to "silent" or "meeting", and having all settings adjusted at once.
Pocket Zen Phone
Hello all,
Check http://zendrui.free.fr . This sw is very good and keeps beeing updated.
Yes, this is a great program.... it is amazingly small for what it does and it does an amazing amount. It even controls which radio's are on or off and when.
Anyway... here is the link to open the forum thread that has 6.0 beta 7 http://zendrui.free.fr/PZPForum/viewforum.php?f=5
When I had Nokia phone, I used a program called miniGPS from Psiloc.com. This was the best program for profile switching. It worked by detecting all the cells at a location and allowing those cells to be put into a group. Then I could create events like "upon entering group, switch to meeting profile, turn off bluetooth, map the keys to do this...change screen saver, change wallpaper to this one..." etc. and upon exit from the cell group, change the ringer volume to max, switch wallpaper, and so on. Unfortunately, the Windows mobile equivalent of this program does not work on 8125. The PocketZenPhone is nowhere close. It works on fixed time basis. What if at that time I am not in office? Though I like the 8125, I badly miss the miniGPS program. It is sad that such a nice utility is not available for Windows.

That is a awesome... I never new it existed. Add that to the forum for ZenPhone to see if they can add that functionality.

Sounds really powerful, although I'm not sure I'd want the phone deciding when to switch profiles for me.
I've been experimenting with a set of shortcuts to invoke each profile, renaming them to be meaningful to me, such as, "HomeProfile", "OfficeProfile", "Silent", etc. Then I can use Voice Command to switch by saying something like "Run Silent" or "Run HomeProfile"...and it does.
One thing I liked about the built-in profile capability on the Nokia's we have is the fact that they would switch to my headset profile when I plugged in a pair of headphones, or when I simply turned on my pre-paired BT headset -- THAT was nice. I'd be curious to see how WM5 recognizes such an event -- I'd think that zendrui, the author of PocketZenPhone, would be able to hook such an event and offer us the option of having it trigger a profile change.
Here is the freeware version of Pocketzenphone 4.5.1 tested on my phone and works well. You have to fiddle with the settings but I got it working properly . If you like it can buy the full version 5 euros I think which is cheap. (me prob will)
I bought the currently shipping version (5.52?) and it works fine...but I wanted to try installing the shortcuts to invoke the various profiles, and the cabs that automatically create and install them (and the associated EXE's) in the right dirs assume NEW directory structures different than what the currently shipping version (5.52) uses. Instead, the new dir structure corresponds to the beta of version 6.0 -- currently at beta 7 I believe, and quite stable. I suspect it's nearing commercial release.
Anyway - ver 6 beta 7 can be downloaded free, and will function for a month. If you like it, it's something like $8 directly from the site, or $10 via Handango or a couple of others. This also buys you all future releases, and the author continues to upgrade this regularly. It's a good deal.
I tried to download 6.0 beta 7 but unable too. If anyone else has any joy please post
what about this one found on modaco http://www.modaco.com/index.php?showtopic=205779? it's free and wm5 compatable. i've not tried it. if you do, please report your opinion.

Just looking at the screens suggest to me that, while this one might work, it has far less control than PZP. Might be worth a try, but I like controlling power, backlight, vibration, etc along with ringtones and volume.
The Modaco Tool works, but as stated is by no means as powerful as ZenPhone.
Another problem with the modaco tool for me ( and many others, just check their forum ) is that after you UNINSTALL the tool it will most likely mess up your ringtones/settings.
Lucky me I had a backup of my system so I could recover without a hitch. The problem was that I had some weird ringtones listed that did not work and were actually never on my system and I could not choose any other ringtones after the uninstall.
I am gonna give Zenphone a try, it looks promising but also time consuming to setup - will give it a go this evening.
thanks jon for both tips. pzp beta won't download I think cuz I am browsing on pda and sometimes cabs won't download. Got ppcprofiles though great find well done. Initial testing promising.

FAQs:
The following files are included in this release:
SLIDE.EXE - the locker
iLock.EXE - mainly for the "auto start" of SLIDE
SLIDE.INI - configures the appearance/behaviour of the locker
GFX (folder) - contains all the necessary graphics for the locker; fully customizable
How to use:
==========
1. a simple INSTALLATION is necessary!
2. place EVERYTHING in folder "\Program Files\Slide2Unlock" on your device, otherwise the "auto start" will not work!
3. create a shortcut or map a hardware key to the iLock.exe (not SLIDE.EXE)
4. you may even let iLock.exe starts everytime you reset your device by placing it under "\Windows\StartUp" (NOT RECOMMENDED yet)
5. everytime you have changed the setting in SLIDE.INI, you have to execute iLock.exe to reload the settings.
6. to UNINSTALL, use Task Manager to kill the SLIDE.EXE & iLock.exe. Then delete all files from "\Program Files\Slide2Unlock" and delete iLock.exe from "\Windows\StartUp".
SLIDE.INI:
========
1. the Date & Time format can be customized:
For example, to get the date displays
"Wed, Aug 31 94"
add this line to SLIDE.INI:
Date Format=ddd',' MMM dd yy
Time:
For example, to get the time displays
"11:29:40 PM"
add this line to SLIDE.INI:
Time Format=hh':'mm':'ss tt
Non-english devices may still have some problem for the format of the date/time. If you have these devices, please use the most basic date/time format like:
Date Format=d'/'M'/'yyyy
Time Format=H':'mm
If you do not want to have date/time display, use these commands:
Date Format=
Time Format=
2. The "slide to unlock" animation can be turned on/off with: (removed after v1.04)
No Animation=0 or 1
3. After the unlock action, the SLIDE.EXE can be sent to background if:
Close App=0
It'll further speed up the loading time of the next execution, but it'll eat up more memory. If you want it simply exits as version 1, use this command:
Close App=1
4. The return speed of the button can be configured by:
Speed=n (where n is 1, slowest to 5, fastest)
5. If your device has a VGA screen, please add to have better fit font:
VGA fix=1
6. Load the .bmp, .jpg or .png file you wants; make sure to include the full path of the file
Wallpaper="full path of the file that will be used at Portrait mode"
Wallpaper Landscape="full path of the file that will be used at Landscape mode"
7. If you want to "auto start" SLIDE.EXE when the device is turned on, use:
Autostart=1 (0 to turn off this function)
8. To turn off the LCD by SLIDE.EXE, you may specify:
Off LCD=n (after n seconds idle, the screen will be off; minimum is 5 seconds; 0 is disable this function)
9. When the LCD is turned off by SLIDE.EXE, you may specify whether the device is suspended or remain active but with LCD turned off
Blank Screen=0 or 1 (0 means suspend the device; 1 means only turn off the LCD)
10. If there is no SLIDE.INI, the default values are:
Date Format=dddd', 'd MMMM
Time Format=H':'mm
Close App=0
Speed=1
VGA fix=0
Wallpaper=Application path + "GFX\Res\wallpaper.bmp"
Wallpaper Landscape=Application path + "GFX\Res\wallpaperL.bmp"
Autostart=1
Off LCD=0
Blank Screen=0
Known limitations:
=============
1. Cannot display UNICODE (for faster loading time)
2. GSM signal strength and Operator Name will NOT be available on WM2003 devices (but can be added manually)
3. "Missed Call", "Unread SMS" & "Unread Email" notifications will NOT function on WM2003 devices
4. Although Landscape mode is supported, DON'T change the orientation when SLIDE.EXE is running, otherwise it'll be really locked up
5. Reported not compatible devices: Japanese OS, Atom Life, Palm TREO
6. for faster loading time, please use option "Close App=0", but it needs about 5M memory. But the result is worth it.
7. DON'T enable the built-in PIN LOCK if SLIDE.EXE is running, otherwise it'll be totally locked up
Trouble shooting:
=============
If you find your device is hanging there with a blank screen or no response with any key or screen-touch, you may not need to reset it. Please follow these steps if your device has a camera button:
1. press the camera button to invoke the built-in camera program
2. press the end call button to go back to Today screen
3. use Task Manager (a third party freeware; highly recommended) to close the SLIDE.EXE

Testing version 1.07 on a Wizard
I am using batterystatus to initiate slide 2 unlock
Points to note so far
When i recieve an incoming call i cannot see who is calling
When i am in portait mode and slide is running if i open the keyboard the screen is no longer locked and the screen goes all crazy with the today screen flashing in the background and i can interact with it, in 1.06 the screen remained locked even tho i could not unlock it i could not interact with the today screen
Great app tho, keep up the good work!

That should be fixed in 1.07. Do you have any CallerID programs running?

Nice work A_C. This slide program is SO nice to have. Just makes things that much smoother.
Cancel this post. After letting it sit for a bit it seems to be working! The thanks still apply though.

This is probably a known bug, but in both landscape and portrait modes, the volume icon is not transparent. I am using WM 2003SE, but I think it's a universal problem because it appears to be the case in your screenshots as well.
Keep up the good work!

You really have an eagle's eye.
Just checked that it's because you have not overwriten very new GFX files to your device (just like me in my development environment ). And I've updated the screenshots as well.
Cheers,
A_C
I have been following your progress A_C, excellent work. You have greatly improved this unique software. Nicely implemented.
This is the best yet A_C. I like the change in the battery icon w/ charging. As always, I look forward to your future developments.
Just an idea, and I'm no programmer so I have no clue as to the feasability of this, but perhaps a sound file could be set to play on unlock? Keep up the great work.

Great job A_C but sad that i have wm2003SE and dont know how and what to paste in the registery.
For WM2003/SE or non-mobile device, you may use this trick to show a fake operator name & signal:
- add this key to the registry "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\state\phone"
- add the following keys:
"Current Operator Name" (REG_SZ)
"Radio Ready State" (REG_DWORD)
"Signal Strength Raw" (REG_DWORD)
Example:
Current Operator Name="Mobily"
Radio Ready State=1
Signal Strength Raw=100
Just trying to help out A_C! I've been following this util in the ArianSoft forum.
Thanks for the great util!

You first need a registry editor like Resco or SKTools. After that just navigate to "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\state\phone" and add the following 3 keys.
"Current Operator Name" (REG_SZ)
"Radio Ready State" (REG_DWORD)
"Signal Strength Raw" (REG_DWORD)
e.g. Current Operator Name="cingular"
Radio Ready State=1
Signal Strength Raw=100
u mean including the scopes(") or without and with the line dword ALL TOGETHER
hey A_C why dont u add the connectivity icon as shown on the iphone's website?
u mean like this?

DontForget - missed events notifier and automatizer

Now available for PocketPC devices too ...
DontForget is easy-to-use and highly customizable Windows Mobile application that can repeatedly remind you of unread SMS text messages,
unread MMS multimedia messages, missed calls, unread E-mails and missed calendar events by sound, vibration, notification window or hardware LED.
But it is not just an extension for Windows Mobile operating systems which should already be present and preinstalled by the operating system.
DontForget also can do much more. You can also schedule to automatically switch your device to certain profile, switch to the Flight-mode in given time of deactivation and much more.
And, by purchasing the license you automatically get technical support, upgrades and future enhancements and the income is used to contribute to special school for sightless children.
Even that version for PocketPC offers nearly the same features as the version for Smartphone, they are internally very different.
PocketPC version is build on complettely new basis so it can take advantage of this sub-platform and it is optimized for 24/7 usage – especially for minimal CPU load
and for tight cooperation with the Windows Mobile OS Power Management.
Key features include:
• wide range of monitored events (SMS, MMS, missed calls, calendar events, unread e-mails, voicemails)
• choose sound to play for reminder notification (5 sound samples included)
• manual or automatic (according the profile) sound volume
• selectable repeat time interval and repetition rate
• selectable vibration and LED alert (device specific, read further down)
• wide range of deactivation setting (in selected profile, in the Flight-mode or specified time period)
• highly customizabled deactivation and re-activation actions (action scheduling) like:
• switch the device to the Flight-mode or back to GSM mode (Phone on/off)
• switch to selected phone profile
• execute or open selected application or file
• scheduled reboot (soft-reset) to automatically reboot your device in preset weekdays and time to keep your device healthy
• Flight-mode switching and automatic reboot feature is working even the device is locked or secured by the SIM PIN
• full support and utilization for the Windows Mobile Power Management and low CPU load optimalization
• multilanguage support (English, German, French, Dutch, Spanish, Czech, Slovakian, Polish, Russian and Chinese)
You can find more information and the download at the application page.

I'm currently using PhoneAlarm to do have reminders for unread SMS, E-Mail etc.
However, I really like the idea of this app. Maybe when I'm tired of PhoneAlarm, I'll give this a try.
For someone might be an advantage DontForget doesn't resides on the Today screen - it's really hidden and working in the background.
It also means it is optimized for 24/7 usage – especially for minimal CPU load and for tight cooperation with the Windows Mobile OS Power Management.
Hujer,
I have followed your program for quite some time. This is great!!!!
Curious G
Sounds promising, will give it a try.
Perhaps you can add a reminding by rule, eg. on file oder registry changing.
or on
- cell
- service provider
- low battery
- incomming eMail, SMS or MMS (by keywords)
etc.

Yes, I've played with this idea some times ago ... but finally I ended up - this is just waste of time.
In general, all LED features are very device and even OEM specific and may not work in the same way or correctly on all devices.
And I don't want to produce a hack - rather a stable and correctly running application, which will work in the same manner on all WM devices.

No hacking at this point, but i think at hklm/system/state/ exists a lot of interesting states.
eg. /phone/cell broadcast, /radio ready state, and so on.
With a reminder on file changing i could run a batch-file (with tinybatch.exe) that will backup the corresponding file.
And with the possibility to make reminders by rules, DontForget would become a universal tool.
Hi hujer,
thank you for the app. I waited a long time for DontForget PPC. I tried a lot of other reminder soft and wasn't happy with them.
No I have an error message after executing DontForgetAdmin " Exception Configuration.Write: NullReferenceException". And after a softreset DontForget doesn't start automatically. How can I change this?

Of course, I would like to help you and fix this problem. I'll need your help.
Please, contact me via e-mail you can find on the Support page.
there is a way to enable repeat reminders for sms/email/etc that doesn't involve paying $15.
i have no problem buying software, but i can't believe how much people are charging for such a simple app.... $15 to just repeat a notification? yeah ok.. i'll settle for the free edit-the-registry-version. i bought far more complex apps for much reasonable prices.
these forums seem to be going from contributions to commercial apps and blatant advertisements.
Two points from me......
1. @tft - yeah, there's a free "edit the registry" option which, IMHO, sucks big time as it keeps on reminding you even after you've dealt with the call or SMS or email or whatever......free it might be, useful it is not!!
2. @hujer - liking what you've done so far but I'd like to have the ability to set different sounds for different reminder types (like my current "app of choice" - AlarmPal - does).....I place more importance on missed calls than I do on missed SMS's, so if DF had different sounds for each event then I would know what I'd missed without having to look at my phone.
Keep up the good work!!
Mark.

DontForget is not about "repeated notification" only - there are also some other possibilities and features (hoping you read about).
If you think it's so simple to write such app which reflects all possible states and WM Power Management and a couple of other things - write your own itself.
And then, when you are finished, we can polemize about ...

Yes, this feature is on my ToDo list, but actually finishing real PocketPC version had bigger priority. Other words: I will add this possibility in (some) future release, definitely.
Get the minor update now.
DontForget is still growing. There will be more and more options and possibilities in the near feature.
And don't forget this is not just a another reminder application, with DF you can manage more e.g. schedule periodic reboots (soft-resets) to keep your device healthy etc.
Version 2.62 for Smartphone and 2.02 for PocketPC released - recomended update
This is recomended update for all to avoid problems reported by some users
who had troubles to run DontForgetAdmin e.g. after ROM update etc.
More info you can find here: http://magazin.softimage.cz/dontforget/news/
Version update 2.63(SP) and 2.03(PPC) released
This update for Smartphones and PocketPCs contains some internal fixes.
Mainly this version fixes the problem with LED and/or Vibration alert on devices which have more than 2 system LED lights defined (like HP iPAQ 614c)
causing the device does not vibrate (or LED-blink) on remiders.
Please also note you can use DontForget application to simply fix the "Amber LED not blinking on Reminders" problem.

Klaxon Home Page
If anyone experiences a bug with Klaxon, please post a description of the bug, steps to reproduce the problem, and attach the \Program Files\Klaxon\Klaxon.txt file to the post.
If any developer wants to take over this project, please contact me via a PM!
TO DO:
Support for multiple languages.
Looking for more ideas to help improve this application!
Version 2.0.0.29
Updated Klaxon to support Samsung Light Sensor
Fixed issue with device not waking up from sleep to sound alarm.
Version 2.0.0.24
Re-enabled the code that forcibly removes the Windows alarm (May cause issues with some phones).
Please use the regular download link or AppToDate (did not make a blog entry about this minor change).
Version 2.0.0.23
Removed the upper right default "ok" button from the OpenFileDialog. This prevents users from hitting Ok and closing the dialog when no file has been selected.
Reverted previous change to "dismiss" Windows alarms. This was causing issues on mine and other devices in that the Klaxon Alarm would never show up. In its place, Klaxon now prevents Windows Alarms from flashing, playing sound, or vibrating. The notification will still show up, but at least not it is completely benign.
You can no longer hit the Off or Snooze buttons while the phone's screen is powered off.
Klaxon will no longer start the OpenFileDialog in the Windows directory to prevent the device from hanging while all the files are listed.
Fixed Daylight Savings Bug!
I'm also looking for someone to design a skin or two for Klaxon, as well as a new icon! Please contact me if you are interested!
Version 2.0.0.21
Fixed crash bug that would happen when browsing a directory filled with many sound files.
Changed the Klaxon icon to something nicer looking. (Requires restart, Windows Mobile caches icons)
The OpenFileDialog now shows the appropriate size folder icon for your resolution.
Version 2.0.0.20
Added Volume control option for alarm under Settings.
Fixed intermittent bug where Samsung G-Sensor exception went uncaught, causing an exception.
Version 2.0.0.19
When integrating with Home Screen, Klaxon now cancels all Windows alarms upon firing an alarm.
Turning off the screen when snoozing is now an option in settings.
Klaxon will now ask for confirmation if you try to create or edit an alarm that is set as disabled. Some users were accidentally disabling the alarm and pressing OK, and the alarm would obviously not go off.
Version 2.0.0.17
Skinning support implemented, sample skins will be released soon.
Completely stripped out the old Klaxon UI design and added QVGA support for the new skinnable UI.
Fixed bugs related to the new feature that allows you to disable sensors while snoozed.
Download and extract the new TestSkin into \Program Files\Klaxon\TestSkin to use as a base to create your own skins. TestSkin looks exactly like the default Klaxon skin.
If you want to install the TestSkin, your directory structure should look like this image:
http://koushikdutta.blurryfox.com/KlaxonDirectoryStructure.jpg
Version 2.0.0.11
Added options to disable each sensor action while snoozed. For example, if your Flip action snoozes your phone, and you don't want to let it resnooze while snoozing (by just picking up your phone in some cases), check this box!
Added the ability to select a Windows Media Player playlist. You can find playlists in your \Playlists or \Internal Storage\Playlists folders. You can use Windows Media Player on your desktop to create and sync playlists.
When you snooze your device, the screen is automatically turned off to save power.
The default sound file is now \Windows\Alarm5.wav. It is not configurable in the UI yet, but you can configure it manually setting the \HKCU\Software\Klaxon\DefaultSoundFile value in the registry. (It does not exist by default, but Klaxon will use it if it is there.)
Version 2.0.0.9
Implemented About Box
Implemented the Snooze countdown on the alarm form.
On the Alarm List form, days that are not scheduled to start the alarm are now a darker color than they were before.
Fixed bug where deleting all the alarms would not remove the alarm from the TouchFlo Home Screen.
Fixed the sound looping bug once and for all! Found a not so well documented "loop" API hidden off the WindowsMediaPlayer.settings.setMode method.
Fixed bug where seconds showed up on the alarms in the list form and the alarm itself.
Version 2.0.0.6
Implemented new skin for the actual Alarm form.
Implemented 24 hour mode (on the reskinned version only)
Possibly fixed bug where wav files were not looping.
Fixed bug where editing alarms that took place on the noon or midnight hours were bugged.
Vibrations are now 150 and 300 ms instead of 500ms.
Windows Alarms are now schedule with no sound, so all the user may see is a notification (if Home Screen integration is enabled)
Fixed bug where One Time alarms did not show up on the Home Screen.
Version 2.0.0.5
If you have a 480x640+ screen, you will see the new UI. It's pretty. Still have to skin the alarm form, but besides that, it is done.
Possibly fixed bug where Klaxon would stay resident in memory.
The number controls are now gesture based: you can flick them and they will scroll through their range quite rapidly!
You can now preview the alarm using the play button. (Only available in the new UI)
Using Klaxon is pretty straightforward; it's more or less like the standard Clocks and Alarms application.
You can download Klaxon from my website.
wow, sounds perfect!
i'll test it right away!
thanks!
Can you make the time the light goes on configurable (15 seconds seems too short).
Surur
I'll try this too in the morning -
Great work
Is this a replacement for the WM alarm/clock or just something on top of it?
What I would like to see:
- a TouchFlo 3D Clock layout when the alarm goes of with the current time and the alarm and snooze time posted, and a symbol that indicates if an alarm is set up or not
- allow it to have multiple alarms to set up
I have attached an image how it could look like
(the settings remain as yours... or Touch Diamond Style like in the com manager )
Really nice and fast job. I cant wait untill its done
Testing
Ok, so ive been testing it a bit this morning and discovered some bugs.
1. Cant delete alarm, nothing happens when you press the delete option.
2. If you go in to chose a alarmsignal and end up pressing Done before you find a signal, you end up back where you started without the option to change the signal, so you have to start all over making a new alarm.
3. If your screen is turned off, the alarm doesnt go off. But as soon as you press the powerkey the alarm starts..I would call this the main issue that should be fixed first.
Question: What is required to make it go to snooze? If you have the phone in your pocket while walking will it turn to snooze just by a little nudge?
Would be good if it would require a good shake
Ill keep testing! Great work mate
Great alarm clock!
But it would be nice with a working one
I have it on the table facing up and it sounds for like a 10th of a sec, then it goes to snoozing...
Little buggy right now ... but I really like the idéa!
Great work!!
Wow!!!
This will be perfect when it's finished! I had a similar app on my N95 and was thinking it would be a perfect addition to my Diamond.
I will test it but until I know it works while I am awake I don't think i'll risk as an alarm to get me up in the morning. I don't think work will be sympathetic to me being late due to testing new software for my phone
Wow! Very nice App! Wanna have!
But following improvements would be nice:
- Finger friendliy configuration. I hate the original alarm settings.
- Possibility to select the predefined sounds with a combo box. It needs much time to select a file in de windows directory by browsing. And additional possibility to browse for an mp3 file.
- Possibility to configure or enable/disable the tilt behaviour
Bugs:
- The phone wakes up and goes back to standby after 2 seconds, the sound stops too. Pretty like NisseDILLIGAF described it. Perhaps its because of S2U2 (I've 1.10b)?
good idea! but bug for me (with rom bepe 0.96) it seems that the program don't work if i turn off the sreen with the power button...

I had the same issue. I set the alarm and waited for it to go off and it did nothing until I pressed the power button to turn the screen back on.
Also once it did finally go off I turned the phone over and nothing happened.
As for editing alarms - as someone menioned once you create an alarm you can't delete it at the moment.
I look forward to an update.
first off all thanks for a great application.
installed it and got some bugs also:
if display is turned off the alarm doesn't go on until i press power button and turn display on, the alarm goes for 1 sec and then is put on snooze. the delete function works ok and +1 for me for a finger friendly config. it's very hard to select the days
VERY GOOD!... i have another idea relating this app....
you can make a screen with something (like tewwter) who disable the alarm.
I think the 80% of the people will do an automatic gesture while sleeping to deactivate the alarm: If a guy is obliged to follow, for example, a combo (random) of unidirectional shake, it is awake enough, ant the alarm can be sutdown
So, my pda ring, i flip it face down and it snooze the alarm; if i want to DEACTIVATE IT, some arrows in a random way, tell you where shake the phone and the alarm si deactivated.
Obiouvsly the arrows are an example, can be made something of different.

split the screen in to 3 boxes - randomly name them '1', '2' and '3' - press order to deactivate alarm
just the first to cross my mind - I also don't like the idea of shaking to disable....

very nice idea! shaking should be for snooze.
very nice, just what i was looking for
Yes but, if we have an accelerometer... we have to use it!
Ok, shaking is "too dangerous" but i think tilting the diamond 3 times (in a random combination) is not too dangerous, and it makes MORE EFFECT (or the app, with 1-2-3 button tap, is a common PDA application)
....however see Here
interesting not installed yet but what IF Ill have more apps with G-sensor support for example turn on/off silent mode...one shaking and I turn on silent mode and also alarm...so think about it...

Again somthing which is going to become a must-have ?
Thanks age.
Yep Yep. Another great idea, which probably is gonna be a great application.
I feel more and more happy I donated you some coffee. A great coder like you should be rewarded!
Hi Ageye,
Just started to try your G-alarm and now you start something great like this. I will for sure use this. So will start trying and give you some feedback for improvements and bugs.
Don't worry about the eye candy yet, first get it functional and bug free
Some observations:
- the current version seems to have no default profile. (like: if no rules apply, use default profile)
- If there is a time profile, there is only a starting time to be set, if there is a default profile (see first point), it would work well to have a time slot - meaning beginning and ending time - and after this time slot, it would switch back to default profile
Some first things to consider to add:
- It would be handy to have a default profile setting. Meaning a profile that would be set, when no other profiles rules are met.
- with appointment based profile, it would be good to add the possibility to use privacy of appointments. As I use my agenda for both work as well as private. However I don't want my phone to go to vibrate during a private appointment, as it needs to do during a business appointment.
That is where using the privacy would come in and make sure that only appointments with no privacy are used for switching to this profile.
No bugs to report yet
Hope this helps any.
Daan
More flexibility
Nice app...installed on Polaris and works although would like to see more improvements...
a) For the Volume, rather than specifying Normal, Vibrate, Soft - I would like to like to see the slider to increase/decrease the volume level to the amount I want for each profile...
b) I do nott know if this is possible or not - but if a command line interface can be integrated to switch profiles then - imagine the flexibilty covered. Apps like UL, TC and other UI's used for daily use can open up immense doors...once command, one icon and profile changes !!
c) Specifying of differnet Ringtones, Alerts for different profiles...
my 2p thoughts on the to do lists...a) and c) is already available on Profiles for Windows Mobile - but b) is something that would really benefit!
feature request
hi
great thing as i have wnated soemthing liek this for a while
but it would be good for it to be able to switch if a bluetooth headset or wired headset is plugged in.
also for this it would be good to have to weighting system whereby this would override a profile that would have been in use already.
cheers for the app interesting to see what the future hold for it.
Yes you are on a trail to take over the mobile world..
Great idea..
G-Alarm is one of the BEST softwares ihave used on any windows platform...BRILLIANT!

some observations:
appointment based profiles seem to work. Unfortunately time scheduled profiles don't work when the device is in standby mode for too long time. Will fix this severe bug asap.

Some observations:
- the current version seems to have no default profile. (like: if no rules apply, use default profile)
- If there is a time profile, there is only a starting time to be set, if there is a default profile (see first point), it would work well to have a time slot - meaning beginning and ending time - and after this time slot, it would switch back to default profile
Some first things to consider to add:
- It would be handy to have a default profile setting. Meaning a profile that would be set, when no other profiles rules are met.
- with appointment based profile, it would be good to add the possibility to use privacy of appointments. As I use my agenda for both work as well as private. However I don't want my phone to go to vibrate during a private appointment, as it needs to do during a business appointment.
That is where using the privacy would come in and make sure that only appointments with no privacy are used for switching to this profile.

@1: default profile - good idea. G-Profile has already this function but only very basic. If there is no active profile and there is an appointment it remembers the default values and restores them afterwards...
But you're right: a default profile is important...
@2: time profiles will be improved in some later version with many different time patterns (similar to G-Alarm)
@3: privacy of appts: unfortunately this requires some more work because this is not in the registry but in pocketoutlook itself. I'll add it - promised!

Nice app...installed on Polaris and works although would like to see more improvements...
a) For the Volume, rather than specifying Normal, Vibrate, Soft - I would like to like to see the slider to increase/decrease the volume level to the amount I want for each profile...
b) I do nott know if this is possible or not - but if a command line interface can be integrated to switch profiles then - imagine the flexibilty covered. Apps like UL, TC and other UI's used for daily use can open up immense doors...once command, one icon and profile changes !!
c) Specifying of differnet Ringtones, Alerts for different profiles...
my 2p thoughts on the to do lists...a) and c) is already available on Profiles for Windows Mobile - but b) is something that would really benefit!

a) There are already volume sliders which are only visible when you specifiy "Normal"
b) very good idea. Of course, this is possible! I will add this feature...
c) different ringtones: good idea, which alerts do you mean?

but it would be good for it to be able to switch if a bluetooth headset or wired headset is plugged in.
also for this it would be good to have to weighting system whereby this would override a profile that would have been in use already.

I: headset/handsfree profiles will come soon...
II: I don't really understand the meaning? do you mean that an profile which may not override other profiles can only be activated when the default profile is set?
-----------------------------
some other questions:
I'm not really sure if the wifi control works on every device - have you any problems to report, yet?
I wrote down all of your ideas, maybe I can release some features soon... First of all there will be bugfixing and some new important features. Afterwards there will be some gui improvements...

i mean that if you one set on an appointment rule set up and then you were to plug in a headset that the headset rule would over be favoured over the appointment rule.
Useful if a lecture ends early i dont need to mannually put up the volume again it will just be done by the new profile being selected.
b) very good idea. Of course, this is possible! I will add this feature...
** Thanks - Am sure this will really benefit.
c) different ringtones: good idea, which alerts do you mean?
** By Alerts - what I meant was to be able to change the tones for SMS/MMS/Ringtones etc - this way - let's say - when I am at work - I could change the tones to something decent/soft and while with friends/outside - I could have other ringtones/alerts.

Since you usually have the time to develope the good apps and you continue developing, I have some ideas for you
GPS support
Cell towers support
Like you can have it change profiles depending on where it is at what time. I think just time support, cell tower support, and gps support = awesome . Take a look at CommMgrPro to see what I'm saying. I like CommMgrPro, but I just feel the developer got too ahead of himself and added WAY too many things :|
New version released: v0.2
This version should be reliable. If something doesn't work for you, please follow the steps how to post bugs on page 1.
Changelog:
[ADDED] Appointment-based: Specify the sensitivity
[ADDED] Change your profiles via command line: "\Program Files\ageye\G-Profile\gprofilesrv.exe id" whereas id is the id of the profile. You can find the id when you edit an existing profile on the first page under the text field.
[ADDED] Default profile
[FIXED] Time-based profiles don't work
Download:
http://www.ageye.de/download/gprofile.cab
I probably won't have much time the next days to work on my tools. Please keep the ideas coming. Until next weekend G-Profile may have passed all of your and mine tests and will become publich on ageye.de
Thats looking great. Downloading and testing this new version.
Appointment based is working OK so far. Going to Vibrate during the meetings, and back to normal profile afterwards.
Will let you know if I find anything.
Found the first error message
This happened when syncing with my PC, hence updating my calendar appointments. (See below pictures)
Running the latest Hyperdragon Rom (Hyperdragon IV light) on a Kaiser.
Kaiser attached to PC and actually in process of Synchronizing changed / added agenda items
G-Profile version v0.2
Edit: Actually, after this error, even if I re-start, re-install, soft reset. It keeps showing this error message.
Edit2: I played a little more, and narrowed it down to the sensitivity. If I select nothing here, it works, If I select something, I get the error message.
Hope this helps.
Hello.
Since You added a Flight Mode to G-Alaram, it will be easy to move it here, to G-Profile.
It will be great, to have scheduled Phone on/off with auto pin entering,
I mean for example: my device will turn off radio in late evening and turn it on in early morning.
What do You thing about this?
Regards.

I think this is already a feature in the current version. Although you need to set it yourself. You can add a profile, and turn of all radio (Wifi, BT), and turn it back on again later by setting default profile on connectivity tab, phone to Enable.
Pin code you can add under menu.
But yes, idea is great. Create a category called flight in my agenda with my flight data, and have G-profile switch to flight mode automatically.
