is there a way to set different sounds for different sound profiles i.e. new txt alert is silent within the silent profile but I would like a noise when the phones set to normal?
I have tried setting this in the sound settings but if I turn 'play sound' off when phones set to silent it seems to do the same thing when i change to normal mode. must be a way to change this but cant seem to work it out?
thanks for any help.
Anyone? Someone must know the answer to this?
Hi,
maybe something like:

or maybe a free Version:

I use PhoneWeaver and it s for me the best
http://www.sbsh.net/products/windows_mobile_pocket_pc/phoneweaver
Does those Apps also work under TF3D? I suggest they only work on the normal today screen as an Today Plugin... so what about a working Profile switcher under TF3D?
Sure ... it works fine.
You just have to install "Second Tody" and here we go.
I'd love a similar app which can also change things like, how often new mail is checked for, wether BT should be on, WiFi etc. Is such an app out there?

PhoneAlarm is what you're looking for.
Go to PocketMax.net
Absolutely brilliant application! Controls just about everything
(and will work with or without Second Today)
Okay, this does look quite cool. I have it installed... but how do I select a profile? How do I run it without second today?
But how can i make a second today?

Hi All
Ive been requested to develop a simple profile manager for the xda II.
My users thought thet Zen's was gr8 but too complicated and too big on the today screen.
Here is what Ive come up with thus far. If anyone is interested feel free to check it out and of course any feedback is welcomed.
Cheers

Hi All
How it works.
Profiles :-
Silent
Turns system and ringer volume down. Can still use bluetooth and bt headset. Can still select vibrate functionality.
Soft,normal,load
User definable. Can set system volume. can set ringer volume, can use bluetooth and bt headset, can select a number of different ring options (ring, ring and vibrate, etc)
Automatic
This profile is a special one. as above but can opt to trigger on appointment status of meeting or busy. When selected it used the previously selected profile's options (if using normal then switch to automatic, normal profile settings are still in use) but when an outlook appointment of status busy or meeting starts as per outlook entry the profile changes to whatever the settings are you selected in the setup for automatic. When the appointment ends the profile settings switch back to how they were and it all goes around again for the next meeting until such time as you switch to another profile.
Here is the lastest version (v1.06 ) of the app and some screenshots.
Cheers

Hi Bretto.
I haven't installed your application yet, but why are they called 'demo'? Is this utility commercial?
Well, for Zen's PhoneProfile not only can you make the icons smaller (I used paintshop pro and reduced them 50%), so that it's smaller on teh today screen, you can now also use PocketZenPhone Tray, the version of PZP that resides in the tool tray rather then the today screen....
Hi all
Im just calling them demo versions at the moment. Of course when its finished I wont.
I was using pocketzenphone myself but I simply got pushed into this project because some of my users wanted an alternative to what else is around. Something simple that handles the basics.

IMHO:
With PocketZenPhone you can both manage the simplest options and have some more sophisticated options like run a program on profile switch, switch a profile according to any outlook status, manage all the available profiles on a timed base... etc., etc,
With it you can do all of this or just use its basic functions, and the settings page is "newbie proof" (oops...I was using a less polite expression :shock: :lol: )
Finally... I cannot see any reason to develop another application... also considering the price that PZP costs: if your nice sw will do less it will have to cost less...
But of course the choice is up to you, good luck !
I certainly appreciate your comments but I would have thought choice for the consumer was always a good thing.
Not withstanding that its users who have requested this application after reviewing whats available.
I certainly dont take anything away from PZP its a great product and Im sure will only get bigger and better. Personally I like it.
Cheers
Bretto
Thank U Bretto for a exelent work .. Love it ..
Carlis
Thanks for the feedback
I do have a new version with some enhancements that were requested.
The ability to have bluetooth on/off/leave as is.
The ability to have a point and click selection mode as well as the popup selection mode.
A couple of fixes.
The app is still being tested so when it has been cleared I'll post a new version for you.
Cheers
Bretto
Hi All
Here version 1.08 for you to play with.
Cheers
Bretto
nice work, only bad thing is the "demo" popup after setting the profile..
Hi All
Thanks very much for all your comments and feedback.
This app has been released for sale as at V1.09.

Hi,
Im just looking for a simple app to create/switch profiles on my 8525, to just set different preset values for notification sounds and volumes. PhoneAlarm is good, but i dont need all the stuff it offers as a today plugin, i just need profile switching.
Are there any freeware apps for this?
Thanks!
Modaco PPCProfiles-Pro
Yes, I would love a repeating notification reminder like PhneAlarm has but just refuse to have all the other rubbish it comes with - don't need Today plugin or skins, or profiles or even multiple sounds (just a beep once a minute will do me fine).
Alas, I have been looking for weeks and can find nothing.
Some that look promising, trun out not to work in sleep mode which I believe is the big problem. If you have to wake the OS constantly to create the sound it uses lots of battery power.
But maybe someone will come up with something eventually... even if it is MS and the OEMs.
An alternative i previously used before PA was PocketZenPhone you can use a today plugin or a simple tray app, which is what sounds like you need.
Works really well, im not sure if its free or not but it does the business. The only reason i switched to PA was because i wanted profile switching based on GSM CellID (which i had on my old Sony Ericsson P900 with "Magic Profiles Pro").
But it is good, and a tidy app rather thana brightly skinned today plugin.
PocketZENphone not free anymore
...sorry, you got to pay for Version 6 now...
I use PocketZenPhone, yes you do have to pay for it, but there is a 15 day trial use.
I did use Phone Alarm but changed for the same reason, it did too much for what I wanted.
All I can say about PocketZenPhone is that it does a vary good job of being able to set up different profiles.
I have it set up as Silent, Quiet, Normal, Loud and Car.
Makes changing volume level, ring tones, message tones a doddle.
I recommend it.

PhoneAlarm but guzzles power flashlight ... Do you know someone on the program as good, but so immature like a flashlight?
Hi, I have been searching for this for a few days now and cannot find anything.
is there a software out there that lets you schedule you notifications ?
i like my to hear a sound when I get new mail but I hate to wake me up in the middle of the night
thanks

wow, can't believe tis is not in demand...I guess I'm weird...

hm, just thought about this...wouldn't that mean that before going to sleep I would have to chage the profile on my phone ?
if yes, that is not what I'm looking for...I need something that I can set and forget about.
anyone else ?
phonealarm has got scheduled profiles.
I also want something which can disable the sound of email notification at night - without all the other features - just simply configure so between specific hours, no audio notification is given.
I tried 3 different profile apps I found on this forum (with google search), and I found this one to work the best for me:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=353586
Hope it helps
For my setup, I only have active sync and windows live sync up to midnight and then from 7am in the morning.
Someone mentioned PhoneAlarm...there's also AlarmPal from the same site, which notifies you of an email/SMS/MMS/missed calls etc.. repeatedly until you do something about it (or as many times as you tell it to!); it has the option to define the time period - start and end - for when it should be active.
I used to use it on my Hermes, but have never gotten around to installing it on my Kaiser; I used to have it set to be active from 06:00 to 23:59 which worked well.
It's not free, but it's pretty darn cheap
Cheers,
Mark.
what are you guys using for switching profiles ?
i'm looking for a basic profiles app along thelines of ppcprofiles or phoneweaver.
unfortunately, i cannot seem to get phoneweaver to work at all - changing profiles says that the notification has changed but it never does.
is anyone else having this problem or should i blame it all on tf3d ?
thanks in advance
I always use the SPB movile shell and want more profiles too!
you could use spb phone suite. it works but imho it takes up too much place on the today screen.

Hi there all,
you could use the Touch HD\ HTC profile manager. It can be found under the Xperia Programs, Panels and tweaks section for the Xperia. I was also looking for the same thing a while back, and found that.
hope that helps!

Can you post a link please? I can't find it and neither can the search engine.
At the moment I use SPB Phone Suite and it integrates into the Mobile Shell panel, if you don't like it on your today screen.
Sorry, my mistake... first post! Link Contained.
Here is the link to the whole thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=441439
the section your after is under Touch HD utils its called volume control
Regards
Winmowgster
I dont think we are talking about the same thing? ... the volume control is just a new skin for setting the volume right? .. I think with profiles we mean like they are used in nokia phones where depending on your selected profile u ve a different ringtone, volume, message tone etc. ?
cause I d find something like this really useful .. at the moment I cant even figure out how to change the tone of when I receive a text message.
Looking at the Original Poster's request, I suggested a solution, which I thought fits the bill pretty well.
If you want to switch between silent, ring and vibrate then this does the job.
having read the request again, and googling the programs that mrdo tried, i see that i may have made a mistake. :S
The SPB Phone Suite is awesome! Well worth the dosh! Have as many profiles as you want plus automatic time or event based profile switching.

thanks for your input. i do have the touchstone volume control installed and it's very handy but i am looking for something that will allow me to switch ringtones, alerts and volumes at the touch of a button.
after a hard reset and yet another reinstall of my apps, phoneweaver still doesn't work. grrr and double grrr.
mrdo, what is the problem specifically? Is there an error on the device or do you start the application but nothing of significance appears?
I briefly tried phoneweaver and had the latter problem. Couldnt figure out whether it was running or not.
In the end I ended up giving up and going for the Touch HD simple profile manager.
I don't find HTC profile manager in that thread, can u post the direct link?

I found that TD2 doesn't has 'Profiles' like other Nokia, SE phones. If I want to set different ringtones + volume for home and office, I couldn't achieve this with single key press....It only has option to Ring, Vibrate and Silent...but could edit and set few different profiles.
Any suggestions on this..

SBSH PhoneWeaver does an excellent job.
CommMgrPro is another possibility (I found it rather fiddly to configure, although it does handle location-based profiles if you want them).

Interface of PhoneWeaver seems good from screenshots, but I think its full version is not free...and trial version is for just few days only...am I write or I can get full version for free also..

Thanks for the reply...It seems that G Alarm doesn't show name of active profile on the main screen, so any setting by this this can be achieved...also while setting ringtone, I cannot hear it before setting...and it is not showing full name of ringtone to identify.

You are right on the limitations of this software (no mp3, no screen icon). But still, it works very well and has many features, whereas other softwares are either not free (Phoneweaver, SPB PhoneSuite), or do not work on the D2 at the moment (G-Profile), or have only a Today plugin (PhoneSuite).
Anyway, I am ready to change my mind and try something else ....
