Hi all,
I've had a search for this but can't find any solutions.
Unless i'm being really stupid I xcan't find a way to make my XDA mini S count only OUTGOING calls. Basically, I get 100 free minutes a month and currently have no idea how many I am using. The only thing I can get the phone to count is a total of in and outgoing calls which is utterly useless.
Any suggestions?
Alex
DkToday is the app you need, it counts outgoing calls and sms. You can set the date you want to roll-over as well ( my minutes are round up and charged to me every 11th of the month.) I'll attach two files here. First install version 1.69, then replace with the dll in version 1.80. good luck!
Where's the setting options in dktoday?
Sorry, I forgot to mention that. Go to start-settings-today-items and tap the DKToday Plug-in. Then select options on the right side of the plug-in list, and the options menu pops-up.
When you say replace the DLL do you mean simply install the older version then copy and paste the new version into the install location?
Many thanks
Yes. If I remember correctly, the 1.80 cab only contains the .dll file and not the complete program. Simply installing the 1.80 cab should work, but not without having 1.69 installed first. So simply install version 1.69 and then install 1.80 over the old version.
Ah brill, have got it working. So if i tap on the phone icon is it meant to take me to missed calls? It doesn't seem to wor. The bluetooth one does. And what is the bar in the top right? battery? Is there a way to turn that off?
Downloaded this but cannot install on the Wizard.
Two files nether of which will install.
00CAB2BE.001
0DKTODAY.000
How do I get this on ?
the bar in the top right is a signal strength indicator, it shows you how strong your signal to the nearest GSM transmitter is, like the phone icon in the top bar. Clicking on it turns your screen off. Tapping on the phone symbol only works when you have a missed call. It then pops-up a screen, asking you if you want to call back the number you have not answered. It will not take you to the missed call section like the dialer does when you press the calls button there.
Disabling some lines in the plug-in can be done in options, by selecting which lines ( 1, 2 or 3) it should show.
@Nikko2: copy the cab files to your device using Active Sync or Explorer, than execute them from there, first 1.69, then 1.80. Choose Device as install location and it should work.
It doesn't count the sms. I have 150 and it comes out 000
Same here. App is not counting the text messages.
It first starts counting when you recieve an SMS. The only problem i have with that is that it counts my deliverynotifications as well. So it allways counts +1 when i sent a sms and get the notification. It doesn´t count how many sms you have in your inbox

Problem is, mine doesn't count in or out going sms. at all.
DKToday only counts sms delivery notifications. Be sure to turn that on. When you type a new message, go to menu-options and check the box. When the delivery notification is received by your phone, the app counts 1 sent sms. There is a way to turn these delivery notifications permanently on. I have posted this in a similar thread and it is also posted in the original thread on this program. use the search.
Be sure to verify if your provider charges you for these notifications, because some do. In Holland these notifications are free of charge, but that does not always go for other countries, so be sure to check this to avoid nasty surprises on your bill.

dktoday seems to make my wizard/cingular8125 run really slow. Anyone else notice this?
What happens if you don't install 169 before 180?

Use CalltimeApp - the perfect solution for keeping track of sent text messages, MMS and calltime...

You may be right - I didn't know that...
But the program is very simple - I am sure you won't have a problem. I will email the developer and contact you in case he decides to make an english version - it can't be a big deal to translate the few menus...
Anybody have this happen to them all the time?
When I exit a mesage, the message list will usually freeze for maybe 3-5 minutes
Very annoying.

yeah, that happens to me too--my best guess root-cause is that it's due to the fact that I have TONS of text messages that I've been keeping over the years.
I always notice that it's worse right after I've flashed my phone and restored my data. I think this is because it's re-threading my messages.
I don't have any fixes or work-arounds, but perhaps my theory might inspire one!

Yes, annoying. I delete the thread of messages I have with someone that I notice takes a while to close and then it's speedy again. This is a frustrating solution because you can't keep much of a history, but at least it speeds thigns up a bit.
I have the same problem, though it doesn't last for 3-5 minutes, thankfully. According to my MyPhone page, I have 1174 messages. This doesn't sound like very many to me.
I notice in Task Manager that SMS takes over 2 MB. Maybe this is part of the reason for the sluggishness?
Another (minor) annoyance is that, in the Windows SMS app (I don't use Touch Flow), when I tap "reply" to a text, the program will take time to thread the messages from that sender and then load the SIP (I use Swype currently). Next, the SIP goes away and I'm left with the cursor at the bottom of the screen in a blank area for my reply. I have to reactivate the SIP and wait for the screen to redraw again before I can begin typing. Seems like weird behavior.
I had this issue and identified it to the threader feature in 6.5 when you have large amounts of messages, just disable threader feature under settings menu and issue will go away..

or you can just use MyPhone to archive some messages... again, when you add or subtract a large amount of data from your sms database, your phone will take some time to re-thread all your messages.
Eventually, when all the messages are threaded, you won't experience the slow-down.
I think this is LESS about WinMo, and MORE due to the fact that we really, really need Snapdragon processors

Well, the "new" rom from VZW. It's now official from VZW. http://www.pcdphones.com/phone_downloads.aspx?bid=136&cid=1&mid=364&carrier=Verizon Wireless

Hey guys just got the phone 2 days ago and i have a few trouble with it.
Long time user of android since G1 but some of the common things i do is not as visible as it seems.
I am from south east asia and i am using the DXJF4 firmware.
Right now the most common problem is that :
1) When you receive sms, you get 2 notifications one from the original sms from android and one from the samsung sms manager. How can i disable the original one?
2)How the hell do you assign ringtones? It seems like it's not easily accessed from the contacts menu?
3) On the top left handside above the volume button there seems to be a hole is that my set alone or is there a reason to have a hole there?
Okay so after searching a bit i found some of the answers.
1) There is no way to disable the 2 notifications for sms. You get both which is an arse.
I can't find any way to disable the original one.
2)You can only assign individual ringtone to contacts in the phone, that measn your google contacts can't be assigned. What a load of crap.
I'm sure there's a way to fix those. As soon as I get mine up and running, I'll try and help.
If all else fails, a custom rom will fix it, whenever that happens

The hole is where you would mount a wrist strap, or in Korea, one of those dangling decorations they all love.
I dun have this problem. I only receive 1 notification for SMS.
For assigning ringtones to contacts, this option is not available if your contacts are not phone contacts, eg contacts synced with gmail. The only way to assign ringtone to these contact is to create a phone contact and link the 2 together. Then you can assign the ringtone to the phone contact. This works for me.
Hmm yeah the phone contact is dumb IMHO.
But i am getting to notification, one white sms logo like the old android and another yellow envelope which i think is the samsung one.
What firmware are you on?
I am using a Malaysian unit with JBF4 i think.

So you only get one notification is it? The yellow icon?
Argh i if only there is a way to access the old sms programs.
When Im tryin to call someone Im always getin a tone after the line first rings can I disable it?
It's under setting, under call settings.

I use Handcent, Missed Call (from Market by Anno), SPC (Super Private conversation) and the stock sms app.
You can disable the samsung sms notification.
Go to the stock Messaging
Click on the left button. Menu will pop up.
Click on Setting
Scroll down all the way and there is a notification setting.
Disable that.
Hope that helps.
Nah i am using only the default one. Haih i guess i will try to update to JFX5 and see if that helps.
Hey guys, just like the SMS-time delay, my phone always says: PAYPHONE when I receive a call... I think it's Rogers' problem as well, but I don't know how to fix this... Anyone know how to fix this?

I had the SMS issue, but someone on here pointed me to SMS Time Fix in the market which fixed it. It's a Rogers issue.
I am also getting Pay Phones (a call from Bell, and a call from Purolator). Maybe they throw in Pay Phone if it's unknown or blocked?

I had the same issue with Rogers, there are two ways of solving it:
1) If you have an iPhone Value Pack, change it to a Generic Smartphone Value Pack.
2) If you have Name Display + Call Display, get rid of Name Display.
That should fix it.
SMS, I haven't figured out yet.
See the following thread for more information about why you get "Payphone" displayed all the time.
Pay Phone being displayed when receiving calls
As for the SMS issue, that is a Rogers/Fido problem wherein the SMS time stamp is offset by 4 or 5 hours. This is an issue when you use a non-Rogers phone as it will not have the fix for the offset.
Download SMS Time Fix from the market and set the offset correctly and it'll show the time stamp correctly!
Thanks a bunch guys, you were right on everything! Why is it that Rogers has this SMS delay? Btw, if I kill the SMS time-fix app, does it still do the job? Does it eat up too much space?

The Pay Phone on call display has been covered, but to sum it up it's an issue related to the fact that Rogers has NAME and number for call display, so when the name info comes across the phone, it doesn't understand so it simply displays Pay Phone instead of the number calling. Getting name display excluded from your package fixes the issue and call display works normally.

I don't know, but I'm guessing it has something to do with UTC timezone and their network.

The SMS Time Fix app by Matthew Precious is very small and uses almost no resources. If you kill the app it won't be running, so it can't fix the timestamp of messages when they arrive.

Rogers technical support knows all about the name feature, they will quickly remove it for you if you call in. Mine is now working, no more Pay Phone.

[QRCODE]I've had my phone for a while but sometime this month whenever I get a call I get an additional blue pop up saying unknown number and after the call ends a blue screen comes on. The name says Free caller ID. I checked the Privacy policy and the email underneath is [email protected]. When I googled it, it gave me DU caller but I have never installed a Caller id and I can't find DU caller or Free caller ID anywhere on my phone but this is keeps coming up whenever I get a call.
Is there any way to get rid of this? Please help

I am having this exact same problem and I found the exact same detail when I did my Google searching.
This only recently started and I have no idea how or why. And if I search for this app or for a setting nothing comes up. When the window pops up you can turn off the settings and I've done it about 10 times and it always turns them back on.
This is annoying the hell out of me but I want it turned off but I simply cannot find any way to access it other than when it pops up

Does your carrier offer any kind of spam protection? I am with T-Mobile and they do have Caller ID service with Spam block. Another carrier Verizon, also offers something similar.

On unlocked devices there is a setting, but someone already reported that it is not turned on, still it would be good idea give a carrier a call and find out. I have used T-Mobile app to access my account and there was a section on my plan where I could select paid service or use the free one(they are different) and it mentioned caller id and spam block. It is possibly that it was enabled not on your phone, but on your carriers side and it could very well be a free service. I think Play Store has an app called "Hiya - Caller ID & Block" https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.webascender.callerid That is what unlocked S8 is using when users enabled it in phone app.

I am not on an unlocked device so it is definitely not that. And it's also somewhat new is not always happened. And yes it is a free service because within the app popup when you check the settings it eludes to this.
I have done pretty extensive searches on my phone within settings & certain logical apps and there is no way to get access to whatever this is if it is an app or a setting. The only access to any settings related to this app or when it pops up but like I said you can shut the whole app off and it just turns itself back on and undoes your settings. Whatever this is you can't get to it directly.

I understand, but what I was trying to say for example on unlocked devices there is a toggle for that kind of service which lets user know about spam and caller ID, but on carrier devices this feature is removed because carriers have their own service that they like to charge user for. My device for example doesn't show anything like I saw in the screenshots. You can open settings and type "notification access" in the search and it will show you the list of apps that have access. See if you can find it there and take appropriate action.

Hey, someone from another thread found a solution. I cleared my Chrome history, cookies, and all synced data and I haven't had the issue anymore. I didn't format my phone tho

Edit: AFter formatting, it's been a day, I restored my apps and data but it hasn't appeared anymore

Hi am having the exact same problem and haven't found a solution yet. Its driving me crazy!
I am using a Samsung S8 and this app/feature literally appeared out of no where.
Any help or leads would greatly be appreciated!
I've been having the same exact issues that started a few weeks ago. I'm using a Samsung galaxy s6 edge from T-Mobile. I'm going to go into the store tomorrow to see if they can offer any solutions. This app is incredibly annoying! Especially since it wasn't authorized to start sending notifications!
I've messaged the email address they gave on the privacy policy asking how to discontinue the services. I got an email back with what I assume is Chinese characters in the body of the email and photos showing what to do. Worked for about a day and then came right back. I'll update if T-Mobile has any useful tips.

So I didn't get to go to the T-Mobile store but coincidentally I was uninstalling apps that I don't use a few days after I made that post. I ended up uninstalling 2 apps, one of which was viva video and I think this might have been the root of the problem. Last time I clicked on that app, it looked completely different and I wouldn't have recognized it as viva video if the name wasn't there. I also noticed that the app will open and run by itself but will not show up in my open apps list (hopefully that makes sense). Even when I had not used it for days, it would still show up in my battery optimization list as an app that needs to be closed. Must be a bug with the new face life. Haven't had any issues since then. I really hope this helps.
