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
regards and Happy New Year,

:? :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.
hi, i've searched and i couldn't find a good answer to just these two questions:
1. what's the best profile changer and if possible when silent it will send a sms automatically?
2. is there an app that can say the caller's name?
i found phone suite and i want to know if there's another app or better for the profile changer.
thanks.

thanks, jarob. any takers for the 2nd question?
MS Voice Command will announce callers name if the number is in your contacts or say the number if it isn't.
I think by now we all know that Sprint has decided to remove/block phone call functionality from US Samsung Tabs.
I've heard about the the Google Voice/Skype workaround to this (Get a permanent skype phone number, GV forward to that, people call GV number and Skype app on the tab rings as normal).
I was wondering two things:
1) Can you just leave Google Voice (whether the web based version or the stand alone android app) running on the tablet and make/recieve calls like that (people call your GV number and it rings the Tab just like it would on a PC)?
2) Does one of you brilliant coders out there have a method to unlock/restore the native phone functionality? I would be (ideally) switching devices and keeping the same data/calling plan I have with my TouchPro2 (I verified this was an option with sprint). So the way I see it this tab should have a voice plan.
thanks!
is there any
Voice apps like those where seen in NOKIA phones that Tells the contact name when an incoming call arrives ?
voice app that Speaks/Tell the message
so that it would be useful while driving !!
unfortunately, the application calls Announcer only available for Android phone http://getandroidstuff.com/call-announcer-android-app-download-v110/
Is everybody else's bluetooth voice dialing just god awful?
S voice is crap, so it's frozen. Google's Bluetooth dialer is just the worst thing I've ever seen. Has anybody found out how to get Bluetooth dialing working properly?
Why in the world can't they just make Bluetooth launch voice search?

Old thread, but I'll revive it because I want to talk about the same subject. I agree with the OP, and I'm surprised how badly Android/Samsung handles blutetooth voice dialing. (My last phone was an iPhone 3GS, and voice dialing worked great from day 1 back with iOS 3 or 4, whatever it originally came with.)
I frequently use bluetooth voice dialing in my car, either from a headset or speaker phone. This is a must-have feature for me.
Svoice is completely unacceptable because it requires the phone to be unlocked. If you have to mess with the phone to unlock it, then that defeats the purpose of voice dialing. I do understand that Svoice can do other things besides voice dialing, things which should be restricted by the lock screen. What I don't understand is why they don't give the users the options to enable selected features such as voice dialing while the phone is locked. But they don't, so Svoice had to go.
With Svoice uninstalled or disabled, Google Search takes over the voice dialing duties. It works ok, or at least it used to with Google Search v2.x. One thing about it that I don't like is that it wakes the phone (activates the screen) when you initiate voice dialing, so you can end up with accidental screen touches while voice dialing (if you don't have a pass code, or if it hasn't timed out yet). The screen should remain locked.
In recent versions of Google Search (starting in v3.x?), they decided to make voice dialing worse! If a person has multiple numbers, you can not directly select one, you have to wade through a stupid menu every time.
Say for example I have a contact named Tim Brown who has 3 numbers: home, work, mobile
With Google Search 2.x, you can do this:
Me: Call Jim Brown Home (or I can even just say "Call Jim Home" if I only have one Jim in my contacts)
Phone: Do you want to call Jim Brown at home? Say OK or Cancel.
Me: Ok
Phone: dials
With Google Search 3.x it ignores the location and always presents a menu:
Me: Call Jim Brown Home (the word "Home" is ignored)
Phone: Say Select 1 for Jim Brown Home, Say Select 2 for Jim Brown Work, Say Select 3 for Jim Brown Mobile, or say Cancel
Me: (If I can remember which freaking number was Home) Select 1
Phone: Do you want to call Jim Brown at home? Say OK or cancel
Me: (Yes I do, you stupid phone, I just told you so!) OK
Phone: dials
What a pain in the butt that is. Ironically, if you open Google Search by launching the app (i.e. by interacting with the screen), then it will listen to the "Home" part. It just ignores it if you are voice dialing, which is where you really need it. Does anybody from Google actually use this stuff?
My solution is this. Since my phone is rooted, I have the option of uninstalling Google Search v3.x, find v2.8 on the Internet, and install it on my phone. Then be sure to ignore any updates in the Play store. This works good enough. I can select a specific number when voice dialing, and I can voice dial while the phone is locked. It still turns on the phone screen when I voice dial, but I can live with that.
Note that I don't use Google Now, so I don't care about any new features that are included in the newer versions of Google Search. If you do use Google Now, this solution may not be acceptable to you.
If anyone else has a better solution, please share it.
Thanks
I tried using the Bluetooth Launch app to activate google voice search instead of the voice dialer, but that didn't work while the screen was locked. So for now, I'm sticking with the solution mentioned above (i.e. using google search v2.8).
