Is there an application that will display the caller's location, based on area code (or something like that)?
I did a search on this site and found a thread about a year old, on this topic. Someone was developing it, but I couldn't figure out if it would work well with the HD2. It should also work for call waiting, not delay the ringer, and play nice with other Sense tweaks like Co0kies Home Tab and others.
Anything in the works?
Thanks for any info.

Hi everybody!
Does anyone know which weather-program that is visible on the picture below? I found it on a screendump for Phone Profiles 7.2
I don't think it looks like Journal Bar, Weather Panel, Stocks & Weather today or PocketWeather.

Oggi:
It is a TodayPlus v11 skin that was available on the darkmojo forum (started by its creator) up until just a few days ago when they took it down AGAIN, one only can assume that it was due to everyone (most) hacking the expired version and still skinning like crazy! ...
Oggi:
A small bit of refinement on my explaination, after hinesight I saw that you saw this from some site of JGUI's or something... it is possible that he (JGUI) would claim that it is some new programme that he has come up with and that he will put it out on some board for the public to start BETA testing for him and then he will promise updates and the public (very few) will believe that this developper listens to his clients, but the majority of the public will not listen to his crying wolf to give him any more attention because they have heard it too many times from this developper... the code is as was and will be property of the ORIGINAL developper (srs) and shouldn't be cloned by other developpers wishing to get a quick buck from Handango by promising miracles that cannot be produced. We get what we put out and if someone (a developper in this case) steals code (as has done so in the past) they will get what is coming to them.
In closing: Don't believe everything that they tell ya... SRS is the dude, man!
Thanks for your answer!!!
I found it on a page for Phone Profiles 7.2 (http://www.pocketgear.com/software_detail.asp?id=12710).
Personally I have had problems with all software from JGUI. It has hard-reset my device several times. Seems generally very buggy!

Hi all,
i was thinking about a software that would be a mix up between a callerID (caller2Picture) style software and a call-sms blocking engine.
Wouldn't it be awesome to have ?
I searched for something similar but no results so far.
I only found out a topic opened this days at
http://www.teksoftco.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=37
they are wainting for some ideas about what we expect from this kind of software
They promissed to monitor this thread also... so lets give them something to work on

You should try Inesoft AddressBook.
The Caller ID part is very nice but the block call doesn't satisfy my needs and many others arround here...A white/black list would be more apropiate for me also the posibility to send an SMS after i block a call, a log of blocked calls...
I would like something like a mix between what Mort and Morphy started to develop here if you followed their topics
Hello everyone,
There is a WM feature that really bugs me: After canceling an incoming call (eg, by pressing the "red" button), that call is reported as missed.
Besides causing a missed call notification (Isn't that stupid? I know that I didn't answer that call!!!) entries are added in the missed calls list so, when in a later time you check the list, you have to remember which calls were actually canceled by you, since that entries seem just like the "real" missed ones.
So, I wonder, does anybody know a way to "fix" this and make it behave more like the Nokia devices(there, the canceled calls are reported as incoming, but with zero duration)?
thanx,
hypest
Hi,
Even with TAPI or RIL, "how" the call was dropped is not available, which means the only way to do this is to replace the system dialer with a custom dialer
Not aware of any replacement that handles this though!
This has always drove me nuts. I brought this up on Howard Forums and got nowhere. No idea if some of the geniuses could fix this or not but I am sure it bugs a ton of people.
I would love to have this fixed as well. It's never made sense to me.
It's comforting (to me) to see that other users as well, find this "feature" useless/annoying/stupid. I'm afraid that a custom dialer would probably work (a one that monitors, for example, the hardware keys to detect call cancellation) but would be a hack for sure.
M$+HTC are certainly not inclined to satisfy such feature/bug corrections (and backport them to existing devices), so again, I rest my hopes to an open source OS to enable the community (and adventurous individuals) to implement/correct such things!
Not a useful post, I know... but I had to let it steam out a bit
Hi, Well I have finally got round to finishing enough of this application to give you a version. Unfortunately all the features I wanted to release are not there but its close enough. Future versions will incorporate these.
This application is basically a sound board with the ability to add user created content.
As before, requires .Net 3.5 CF.
The sample sound themes included in the application are a little weak and could do with some extra ones being created. Post your creations in the thread please
There are two types of themes available, a button theme and an image theme.
The button theme uses positionable windows image buttons to play the sounds.
The image theme uses an image to play the sounds. So for example you would have 2 images one for the background on the application for the user to see and one for the application to use. The overlay image will contain a single block of colour where you want to place a button, this colour is then indexed in the themes XML file. So when you press down on the background the colours are matched and the matching sound played.
The best way to get to grips with the themes is to look at two of the themes I have provided. The XML files are fully commented and quite simple to understand.
Example of ButtonTheme, \content\Roy Walker\RoyWalker.xml
Example of Imagetheme, \content\Mr T\MRT.xml
I am sure there will be bugs, but I wanted to get a release out as soon as possible to get some user created content. Please post any creations on this thread and I will include them in the .cab file with the next version.
Any feedback or suggestions please post on this thread also.
Future features:
Volume Control
More audio support, e.g. mp3 etc
Options to save last theme and other stuff
visual feedback on an Imagetheme button press, perhaps a greying of an area (Simple but havent had the time)
Any way have fun!!

Attached are a few screenshots of my bad attempts at themes.
The "wrong" button sound effect is not from catchphrase, but from Family Fortunes. As far as I remember, they didn't have a sound for that. Roy Walker simply said "It's a good guess but it's not right", which for me beeged the question, how is it a good guess then? Anyway, I'm not fussy. It's a great, useless, fun little program. We need more of these!!
Thanks.
Yeah you are right, I was just being lazy! But ah well, hopefully myself or someone else will create a family fortunes theme for it.
I also need to get some more Roy Walker sounds added in, a few people on the forum have given me links though.
Work seems to steal all of my time these days. Stupid work!
Cant wait to try it. Thanks for your hard work.
I can't play any sound when I'm on the phone. Neither I, or the one I'm on the phone with can hear anything.. What am I doing wrongd?
To be honest I never even thought about someone trying to use it during a phone call!
Interesting idea though...
I am slowing working on a few more themes, when I get time during work of course. Unfortunately my artistic skills are a little weak.
But I have created piano theme also, much like the one for the IPhone. Need to create some others also.
I was kinda hoping other people would create some content. It is easy enough
i am up for this....let me know how i can make some themes!
woooohooo
i have made a new theme! (well based on the mr t one supplied)
BETTER SOUNDS AND IMAGE!
i would like to know if someone can tell the screen size the program displays as it is not 480*800 as in the specs (it looses some from header and footer)
if anyone would like the theme i have made please Private message me i will mail it to you (as i do not know how to link)
i am currently working on another FAR TSUPERIOR theme just need the right images and screen size before i mail it out.
about time i found an app that i can have fun with! (like those iphone apps!)
cheers original poster for this!
I there, a have been searching for a while for an application that a could use to make something like the iphone idrummer (because of the daft punk kits) since i dont know how to make one, just modify them.
So here are my versions of Daft Punk "Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger" and "Aerodynamic". Just ad the files to the content file of the application and select them on the application and you are ready to go.
The thing is, they were made for QVGA version (240x320), so for other screen dimensions just modify the size of the background images and buttons, and coordinates also.
Hope you enjoy them (sorry for my possible bad english)
Anyway thanks to the creator of the application, and if anyone could make a new application more suited for a possible version of idrummer for those that dont have a iphone its always welcome
Haha i was just about to come here and ask if someone could port this http://www.noblefart.com/ across from the andrioid but since this sound board is very similar then maybe it could be intergrated into this!!
Is it possible to make it so that someone on the phone can hear the sounds?
This would be then great for prank calls. It would then also be useful to let you set your voicemail message as an mp3 - just dial your vm, choose record greeting and hit the soundboard button...
is there any way u can make a soundboard for family feud?
Saw yesterdays American dad episode when Stan was searching for his phone which he had lost,and he had set it to vibrate mode and therefore he could not call the phone... his wife "said" something smart
"why cant you just invent like a code, you dial the phone and enter the code and it switches to another profile" something like that...
Now a phone-call couldn't be possible, but how about via a text-message?
I'm not a programmer so i don't know the limitations of the API(?) in the TD but it should be possible i.e scan a (incoming) text-message for a specific code and then call a function to switch profile / turn up the volume
well well, just an idea thrown out
to all programmers and chefs @ XDA - just love the work you're doing!
Remote Tracker
You mean an application like Remote Tracker?
You could ask someone with knowledge of that app to help you out, or maybe it already exists!

already exists. smsRunner
hello !
@fnotsje
thank for the tip about remote tracker, but I already have it in subscribed threads, maybe going to the first page a little more often is something I'll have to work on
@bbobeckyj
thank you for the tip, will check it out
*note to self - search a few times extra when in middle of the night*
