assigning a ring to contacts - MDA, XDA, 1010 General

high.
how can i get a different ring for different groues in contaccs ?
i have Caller2Picture demo but it doesn't let me do this
do i need to buy the full version.
thanks dave

I believe that Sunnysoft's Plus for Phone edition does this and quite a bit more. Certainly worth a look, the eval version has all functionality.

PhonExt does that too, and it's small and free.

Thanks Guys PhonExt is really good

caller2picture

hi,
does anyone has "caller2picture" ?
I have the trial version and I want to buy the full one, but on "pocket gear" I've seen a post of a user that bought the full version but he's still unable to assign more then 3 pictures.
Can I thrust them and buy the software or do I have to forget it ?
Thanx

I've used the trial version with more or less success, especially displaying a chimpanzee picture when my collegues tried to phone me :lol:
I've got the full version and it works fine. I've got about 10 pictures assigned to contacts.

Oh, please, give me a break... We're doing our best to create a fun experience for everyone. And besides, what hidden about the policy of removing warez trading?

This is not acceptable at all.... Xchange man those ppl are receiving us as their guests and why pay them back by insulting them??? 2 days ago this site or this forum has reached its 500 user and all of them are considering themselves as one family sharing and learning and teaching. Please reconsider your attitude as we all are here friends and one happy XDA, o2, QTEK, SX56 (forgot any?) Family...
Thanks for the ppl behind this site thanks for the members in this great forum God bless us all.

I have to agree with XDA developer Peter Poelman
come on xcahnge - $14 is not a lot for software... that is damned useful...
and entertaining, and intuitive. Instead of moaning why not just develop your own version of the software and distribute it as freeware?
I mean if it cost several hundred pounds and you used it three times you'd have cause to grumble.
Dont forget that programmers have mouths to feed - and being a software developer is as worthy a job as a train driver or electrician.
(Apart from Solicitors & Estate Agents)
I am none of these by the way, but I know plenty of programmers!
Dont forget that we need people like this to develop apps for our phones to make them "far more functional" than our friends nokias, or motorolas are.
Hold on a minute you dont like paying 14 dollars, but you have several hundred dollars worth of mobile phone!!!!
Just try it out. add three pics for your best friends and if you like it then just BUY NOW!

haha,
no thanks, I already got the serial no... caller2phone. I guess our opinion are different.
xda site
hi all
this is a great site and i normally log in daily i used to have a nokia communicator but the xda is a lot more usefull and the only real website for the xda is my-symbian.com and that started a bit like this site but turned very quickly into a forum for selling software and not really intrested in the people or the product it would be s ahame for this to happen here there is loads of free software out there try downloading bear share and you will get loads of games. anyway keep up the good work on the website.
regards kevin beecher
So... what about sharing the serial!!!!
caller2picture is pants..
I only wanted to be able to select different ringtones... caller2picture adds its bloatware crap and removes another useful feature <sending an sms from the contacts> (or has nobody noticed?)
nobody has made a program with a little box that lets you do the same thing?
hmmmm

It is useless, because it is generated depending on number on your Register screen. And that one is probably calculated from your name/or other unique parameters of you xda.
Hi!
Anyone got similar problem. The pictures aren't showing themselves regularly and consistently. They pop up many times less than they don't. Suggest anything, guys? :?
What is frustrating is I bought the full version, but it will not work with WM2003PE.

The program does work with my ppc2003. Anyway, you have to remove your sd card before the installation since the system will automatically install the software to sd card even you choose to install on the default location. The Picture2Caller does have some bugs when installed to ppc 2003. That is the software fails to work with all contacts. Anyway, if you feel ok with this, go ahead. Cheers
I want to agree with Arzeb,
This is an AWESOME site, complete with smart helpful people. Please keep up the excellent stuff that gets done here.
xchange: please chill.
THANX to the rest of you.
Hal.
Tried installing it again withot the SD card, still does not work. What happens is, it does not retrieve the contact's name, and phone numbers.

XDA suitable for a 16 year old?

Hello there..
I have recently discovered your website and it is very impressive, well done :lol:
In september i am going back to 6th form to complete my a-levels, and i believe that the XDA would be a good application to have....
But i was wondering does any one have an opinion on a 16 year old using the XDA mainly for social reasons? Has anybody had an experince like mine? Is it really worth the money? Also can it be used as an mp3 player?
Thanks very much for your time and effort in advanced.
Jason
Yes, it's a fine MP3 player if you have a bigish SD-card for the music, and some better headphones than the junk that comes with it.
yeah im planning on getting the 256mb sd card....
but doesn't the ear phones supplied come with a speaker in it, to use it as a hands free kit?
thanks
jay
If you can wait a little, the XDA II will be available before december 2003 , and will be a lot better than the actual one :!: :wink:
XDA 2? is there something i should know about it?
is there a thread? what does it do?
thanks
jay
how much do u think the new XDA 2 will cost?
thanks again for ur help
jay
im 17 just finished 6th form and doing year 13 soon ive had an xda since i was 16 tis ok but if u use it for social and daily things expect it to get dents and scratches but other then that tis fine.
mp3 is good on it but movies are alot better lol
people call it a brick but when they see what it can do they love it lol.
other then that some peeps think ur werid holding this slab against your head till they figure out its actually a phone lol
imo get it
lol.....ok thanks :lol:
i really want to get it, but im not sure if i should wait until the XDA 2 comes out....
any suggestions?
thanks
jay
well i guess u either work or you are a rich student :shock: so if you are in any of theose catagories id say yeah go for the xda 2 when its out. will be about £600 simfree though :S
(ill have to give it a miss as i need to save for my car insurance )
lol......im not that rich
i think i will just by the xda now, beacuse all that i have read about the XDA 2 the main difference i can find is that it has an intergrated camera.....and im not to bothered about that...
thanks
jay

I agree with the conclusion, but only because I have a hunch that the XDA2 is still a long ways off. But it has more than an integrated camera: Bluetooth and SDIO. You will really miss these, but then you can just sell it and get the XDA2 later.
it also have a 400Mhz cpu compared to xda1's 206Mhz
and it's cellphone is triband which you of cause dont need unless you travel to us or some other country which use 1900 Mhz
and it got optional Wireless LAN capability
and longer batt time
i'm just getting the xda1 myself since i cant wait for the xda2 which will most likely not come to where i live before Q1->Q2 04
and by then G3 (UMTS) pda phones will be just around the corner and then i could wait for those and end up waiting for ever
Social implications....
....put up with everyone calling it a "brick"... then repeat yourself 100s of times saying it isnt a phone, its a pda with a phone built into it. Then play some sample video, mp3 and start up the Rayman game, and watch them turn green with envy, and walk away saying "theyre glad they dont that brick"...
and show them jpg and avi files of sheep and goat p0rn which when you have a xda you always have with you for your viewing pleasure jk
yeah
i told my friend what i was getting, and now he is getiing an XDA now... :wink: lol
thanks to everyone who posted
jay
Hmm...
Advantages
I'd say it would be perfect if you go to college/uni, as you could fall asleep and record the audio from a lecture!
You could also play games with the atari VCS or Mame emulators, as well as its obvious mp3 capability.
Disadvantages
Buy a soft or hard case (see my posts in the Accessories forum)
Great device but dont dare drop it! Its not a plastic nokia!
Dont surf the web or use it for email though, GPRS is damned expensive. Spam can be very pricey!
Sorry for invading this thread seems just like what I was going to say later anyway
Well I Just been searching through for the word camera (wonder if there was a review of the one I just purchased)
Well Tommorow Afternoon Im going to buy a XDA Im not that worried on the new one, and I think its perfectly fine for 16-17 yr old Im 17, I loved it when I had a go of it in herefords o2 shop, the bloke there wasnt saying nowt about XDA 2 and the price drop even though he was trying to hint on things
One thing that made me buy it is it has Excel and Word as Im doing a college course based around Office Software, im going to have a freindly word with one of the college technicians and install the uploading software onto my profile, had a good look around the back of the college computers and they only got serial ports so put in a purchase for a serial cable 2 save me carrying around hundred of floopys to take home
You made some great suggestions for therory leasons, great idea as a dictaphone , and taking photos of the board wont have to write it down, look like a prick but hey who cares
mp3, and games on the way home well I be in heaven, any ideas what type of games are availble for free, and a site?
Thanks!!
try emule or kazaa best places for free appz
Well I am 50 years old and everybody that sees the xda young or old are amazed at its capabilities, I have satnav with tomtom 2 voice directions, a whole library of books, some good games, mp3s, codewallet for all my credit card details, wap access, the sky astronomy package which gives me planetary positions and interfaces to my telescope, click on a star/planet and the scope slews to it, and I also carry the odd short film on sd card. How can anybody fail to be impressed. Oh and its a phone too. And a dictionary, and a translator, talk into it in English and it talks in French/Spanish/German, providing the phrase is in its database.
Well on the way down to college on Tuesday few behind me was having a good laugh at this ring tone on this Nokia with a Poilce Siren then a some very desorted lyrics, never heard such good things from a phone, well except Wav files on XDA, its far ahead of that phone
I hope PDA Phones are pushed and marketed to hell, which is looking like they will be
Cant wait to get mine in my hands

PZP VS PHoneAlarm

Since there is no demo version for PZP, I would like to ask did any one tried both these software (PZP and PHoneAlarm). IF so what is the difference other than the price and which is better.
I am planning to buy either of them, I would like you all to help me decide.
Thanks,
Riaz
Tried the demo of PA, I think it tries to do too many things. I wouldn't say it was unstable, but I definitely noticed more strange things happening. Sometimes programs make things more fiddly and I considered PA to do just that.
Bought PZP pretty much on blind faith given the comments of others (not to mention the number of people involved with the PZP post!!) and I don't wish I'd kept my dosh in my pocket. It doesn't try to do too much, it simply helps you create profiles for different scenarios and leaves it at that. There's a few other bits n bobs such as the Outlook profile integration or the timer switching but I don't use those - two taps is enough for me.
If I were you I'd buy PZP. You get better support, a better program and you won't experience half the number of lockups on your phone that I did with PA. PZP worked beautifully on my XDA2 (didn't have it on my XDA), 2i and now the Exec...though the VGA icons could do with a spruce :wink:
@Zendrui - I'll take cash for this advert!!
Ant
Ok ok...well that s a matter of point of view...
As far as I am concerned, I am now using PA since almost 6 months...
There are some functions that are buggy at the moment, but you can disactive them and only keep the ones you REALLY need. But Bruce (developper) is going to release the brand new version (1.30) on 23 december, and as he said...it now will be TOTALLY stable.
So...a good advice for you would be to wait until this date, try out the new version on your device, and then...make your decision! =)
quote Anton.Valleyman:

Well for the support, I can t say if it s better or not, but I do know that Bruce is giving a wonderful support on the phonealarm s forums. And I am not sure that anybody could do really better.
Same thing, I don t think PZP is a BETTER software....It s really simple, and only change profiles. With PA, you can use it the easy way (profile switching and alerts on sms/voicemail/missed call...), but you can also configure A LOT of other things (some of them are really useful like "vibrate on connection" when you call someone...).
So wait for the 23 december and get your favorite one!
see you

[APP][04.01.10][WVGA-VGA-WQVGA-QVGA] CountOnMe 1.0

Here's CountOnMe, it a turn-o-matic simulation with different counters. The idea is that, when someone is hassling you (maybe your boss...), you put out your device, and without a word invite him to wait his turn
Ok, i know it's a total inutility. But sound a bit funny.
This is a fully functional version, not a demo nor a limited time app. The difference with the "pro" version is that preferences are only available in "pro" version.
If you like this app and want to upgrade to "pro", send me a small donation, specifying you want "CountOnMe pro" and telling me which is your device screen resolution (wvga, vga, wqvga or qvga).
"Pro" version saves state on exit (on restart you’ll have on display the same number you had on quit), you can switch between 4 different counters, you can disable sound and you can disable the "now serving" images.

yes, and this way I would also make money, i guess. But what is missing in WinMo scene (and what, instead, is plenty of in iPhone one) is useless apps, made just for fun. The idea is that WinMo is not only a serious device, but it can be used for fun as iPhone. That's why i leave serious apps to serious developers

Q: Can I repurpose my gtab as an electronic "menu"?

Hi folks, I bought the gtab in one of the woot offers and while I very much appreciated it as a first tablet, even rooted and rom'd everyway, it was never responsive enough for my use. Too many lags, etc. But this is not to talk trash about the gtab. Just to say that I didn't get the use I wanted out of it.
I own a cafe and it's not a huge budget operation. Recently, I expanded my menu to have sandwiches and customers like it. Some asked for pictures but the printed versions are kind of dated as a look.
My question: do you folks believe I could repurpose my gtab as a fancy menu? All I would want it to do is:
1- only have one function: browse through a few pictures of sandwiches and their names.
2 - that customers would not be able to play with it other than flip through it (any application to recommend to block everything?)
3 - and I so don't want it to lag!
Is there a way to turn off as many functions as possible to make it really quick and responsive? I will buy a nice stand near the cash register and it'll be solid. I am not worried about that part but just the feasibility and the lag issues.
Thank you for bearing with me and I look forward to any help!
Hide status bar, disable hardware buttons, launch some picture app. Should be good to go.
Oh and make sure to block public access to all the ports, power button, and plug.

Thank you! It's actually nicer and simpler than I thought. I'll go experiment with these. Just curious, any rom that you would think would be best lightest in your experience? Again, thank you

I'd go with an older one, since the UI is never seen go with something stable like Froyo etc. Honeycomb and ICS are still slightly buggy and slower. I'm not sure what one, I've never used any of the older ROMs, but you definately want to go with the most stable for this, features of the newer ones are pointless for your uses. I hear 'clemsy' thrown around a lot, maybe give that one a whirl.
