I just made an OEM of PocketCM 0.5 for our Apache kitchen. Find it here:

I'm wondering if there's a setting somewhere that defines the width of the text box so that it can be widened to occupy the full width and thus not wrap down to subsequent lines so that more information can be displayed.

As it stands right now, if the street address is anything longer than say 7 characters, you won't be able to see the zip code and sometimes even the state since they're forced down below the edge of the text box and thus are not shown.

I'll see if I can post a screenshot a bit later to better illustrate what I'm trying to say.
It's a bug in the current theme.

add a settings.ini file (or add the line in you current settings.ini) with the following setting:

contact_description_box=83,31,235,101

then it should be better (of course, you have to reload pcm or switch to landscape then portrait).

Technically it works, but it is beta.

The thing is, we need to create a "theme" for the Treos 240x240 screen.

Basically, Tene wants us to use his website/forum for questions or references.

So how to make themes is documented here:
http://pocketcm.com/phorum/read.php?8,174

with General info found here:
http://www.pocketcm.com/beta.php

I suggest we get some people in the Treo forum to adjust this to our screens and then we can post it on his site for others. Volunteers?

Meanwhile, he'll work on the more technical aspects like bug fixing.

hey all, I am using this program and am dually impressed. I don't know the developer in any way or form, but I encourage you all to throw in a couple bux if you like it. It's developers like these who make our already painful ppc's easier to use. Keep in mind, if any developer feels appreciated we can appreciate nicer bells and whistles in the future.

This program is some much better than Contact Manager .11. Im really liking it but I have a question how com at the very top I am getting 3 rows with nothing but # signs and they dont do anything. Is this a bug in the beta version?

Thanks, I changed it to 83,31,234,101 before I saw this post and that worked, but I went ahead and changed it to 83,31,235,101 to add that one extra row of pixels. :D

This really is a great app and it really helps when I'm using my phone one-handed and I need to quickly find a contact.

thanks for that made it alot easier then havening to look through the reg to find it.

Scroll to the bottom of all of your contacts (past z) and you should see the Virtual Contact which allows you to add one. :)

not seeing this :(

srtpusher 08-02-2007 02:27 AM
is there a way to have the text on the main scrolling list one color and a different color on the contact information screen? also on the contact screen i would like to set a color for the address and for the contact name. i am going to put shadow boxes on my background to enhance the text readability for now.

also on a mogul, in landscape mode, if your contact has more than 2 contact #s only two show up. any way to make them all show or to get rid of the softkey bar at the bottom? actually i would like to get rid of the softkey bars altogether.

thanks for the wonderful program - it is awesome!

address
 
HI Great app is there a way to show the address if I only have a business address? It only shows the address if it is listed as the home address.

Thanks,
dolivas

ryox82 08-02-2007 08:47 AM
How much longer until a cab is created for this? I am not hacking around with the registry. Rather have the option to use remove programs if the need arises. Nice improvement though as I am playing with it!

You should be able to flick the numbers up to get to the rest of them, the same way you scroll through contacts

when i try to flick the contact detail screen 90% of the time it registers as a button tap and dials the number. the timing needs to be adjusted on this screen to make the taps a little less sensitive.

stay on the outside and move it slowly and you should have better results

VERSION .06 and its smoother than ever great looking theme and all!

diomark 08-02-2007 10:00 PM
This new version works great... My main complaint with it is that it totally disables the default contact manager (It can be reenabled by doing a reg hack..) - would be good if they could have an option open default contact or something... I still have many extentions in the real contact manager that I can't get to with this. (i.e. lookup in google maps, etc..)

this doesnt disable it at all... it only does if u do the registry edit.. and you have some good ideas you should post them over at pocketcm.com and maybe ur request will become reality :wink:

stroths 08-03-2007 03:02 PM
I am trying out the .06 version and its working very nicely. The memory usage is much better than the previous .net versions.

nmeister 08-03-2007 04:48 PM
how exactly does the sms program work? when I type words, I cannot see what I have typed. And when I press send, it doesnt seem like anything is happening.

You have to tap in the input box above the keyboard before you start typing (hopefully this is fixed in the near future).

nmeister 08-03-2007 05:47 PM
oh i get it it now, thanks for the heads up.

edit:
I can send text messages, but when I get the response it isnt threaded. It doesnt even show me the message I just sent out.

I dL PocketCM Keyboard v0.1 from the link posted in the first post coz I thought it looks like a nice keyboard...but the problem is, I don't know where I am suppose to put the settings.fr file after I unzip...

Also, I noticed that the short cut to Contact Messenger has a long name, is it possible to make it shorter?

TIA~[/i]

I've been playin' around with this for a while. And for the life of me, I still can't get it to work without constantly clickin' on the .exe. file. Can anyone help?

Priest 08-07-2007 03:03 PM
First of all, I just want to say "Great Program!" I dl'd the cab and installed perfectly. Now I just click the COntacts button on the today screen and it loads right up.

However, I have a question/problem:

I LOVE the idea of the SMS but it's not working for me. I assume this is because I have Cody's Threaded SMS installed. I just want to verify that these two are not compatible?

Thanks!

unfortuntaly i am not familiar with 1. the kitchen and what sms it uses... 2.the sms built in to CM try posting over at pocketcm.com quentin is a very nice guy and very helpful

Chunky Monkey 08-07-2007 08:35 PM
Hi guys, just registered the other day. Love the site.

Anyway,

Version 0.7b is the best version by far.

I can use landscape mode and type SMS with the real keyboard without any problem. I couldn't see what was going on with the automatic on screen keyboard from 0.6.

It sends SMS fine for me with the standard "messaging" program. I am not understanding the "No previous conversations" window. Maybe for threaded messages???

For those of you having trouble installing...are you using the cab? This worked perfectly for me.

Big D5 08-07-2007 09:51 PM
This is one of the best apps I have seen, I believe it will be one of my must have apps up there with phone alarm. I am really digging the favorites to all contacts animation I keep opening contacts just to show people :thumbleft: :thumbright:

sylvanus 08-07-2007 11:12 PM
Square Screens
 
Hi

Great app there!
Is it possible to resize the pic shown in the contacts coz the other buttons (Mobile, SMS, Work, Home) aren't shown on a square screen.

ryox82 08-07-2007 11:54 PM
This is really developing into my favorite program for the my mogul. Also, the keyboard does work with the cab. I assigned it no problem. Keep up the awsome work!!!

samshady 08-08-2007 01:35 AM
Thanks to the person who designed and placed this program out there. After BigJ's rom I just flashed and programs like this I love my phone even more. Thanks PPCGEEKS for giving us somewhere to find all this information!
