SPB Phonesuite vs phoneAlarm

So which is better?
SPB Phone suite or phoneAlarm?
I particulary like the ability to have my profiles switched based on cellID. That means vibrator @ the movies, medium volume @ work and so on.
I do plan on getting SPB Mobile Shell and SPB DIary. So maybe getting the phonesuite will be a better plug in to SPB Mobile shell.

I prefer Phone Suite - especially since it it integrates well with shell, diary, pocket plus, etc. PA kept getting me out of control with my profiles, like thinking I was silent in a meeting and wasn't. Probably my fault for causing this behavior but too much detail for me.

I also found PA to have much more than I need, and didn't want to take the time to tweak it endlessly. Phone Suite is nice, direct, and simple. And I also use a bundle of other SPB software, so having it as integrated as it can be is quite nice.
The nice thing is that SPB provides full-featured demo periods, so you can always give it a shot and see if it does what you want. I can say that there's less control than PA, but it's quite functional.

I own both PhoneAlarm and AlarmToday but this week I removed them while running a trial for Mobile Shell, Phone Suite, Pocket Plus, and Diary. So far I've removed Pocket Plus but kept the rest and I think the switch will be permanent. They are better looking and more effective.

hmm I don't agree with you. I use PhoneAlarm, Pocket Plus, Diary, Time, Mobile Shell.
For me Phone Suite has to less features so for me Phone Suite is less effective then PA! In PA there are so many things you can change and it's skinnable...

In my opinion the skins are all pretty hideous. Of course that's a matter of personal taste. It's true that in theory I could create my own but I don't really have the time for it. Phone Suite on its own does have less features than PhoneAlarm but that doesn't translate into effectiveness. For instance, as another poster mentioned, PA is somewhat buggy when it comes to staying silent. There were times when I'd be in my vibrate-only work profile and it'd somehow shift to a louder mode without any kind of indication or visible profile change. I'd consider myself lucky to catch it on a reminder instead of a phone call. The way it integrates into the rest of the SPB products adds to its effectiveness.

I think what this is boiling down to is this:
If you want a really powerful app that's incredibly customizeable but might have a bug or two, PA is the way to go.
If you're looking for more basic profiles and controls with fewer bugs, then Phone Suite is a solid solution.
In fairness to PA, given the depth of controls they provide, I'm not surprised there are more issues. With the number of different devices running around, strange combinations of apps & hardware are bound to arise. I'd be amazed if they didn't. However, it does look like they're having to do many tweaks on a regular basis based on release history.
Both have free demos, so use one for a week, then the other and see which fits you better.

My biggest complaint against SPB PhoneSuite is that it doesn't have audible repeating alarms for Missed Calls & Unread Text Messages. Furthermore PhoneAlarm addresses another inherent weakness of the WM operating system by providing repeating alarms for reminders as well and this works very reliably.

Phone Suite does have audible repeating alarms for Missed Calls and Unread SMS. At least, the current version does. You can configure whether you want an alarm for missed calls, SMS, or both on a schedule you set. I've turned off the SMS reminder, but that's my preference.
You're right on the repeating reminders, but some calendar replacements do this already so it may be SPB looking to avoid software conflicts.

The least feature rich but OK for profile management.

I second Phone Weaver. Its recent updates have made it very useful (and cheap!)

I am sorry Perfalbion for my ignorance. I read about the SBP PhoneSuite from their site and could not make up that it did have audible alarm for missed calls / SMS. Thanks for updating me on this.

Wow thanks a bunch guys!
Ill prolly end up downloading both and seeing which one I like more.

Spb Pocket Plus and its plugins

Hi!
I know someone's probably asked this before, but is anyone using the SPB Pocket Plus, with its myriad of plugins? What is your take on it, is it something worth getting?
Also, when you use it, is it still possible to display the time on the today screen, just like its displayed in the HTC home plugin? (would you need to buy their time plugin along with it?)
What plugins would you recommend to be a must have?
Thanks in advance!

Ughhh! If you know it's been asked before then why did you ask again?
Yes, a lot of people use it. SPB has good stuff. You can still display the time and don't need the SPB Time program.
Search for "must have plugins" and get a better answer than just posting the question.

do we really need rude unhelpful replies like this...
i,ve had it & wasn,t too impressed...too many small buttons which can be found just as easily by going throu the menu

It is a matter of preference. I find it useful to the extent that I do not like a cluttered home screen. So, I have seven tabs - six of which open programs (five programs assigned to a tab) - and the seventh (a smiley) in the center which has nothing assigned and gives my home screen nearly 2/3rds of an empty screen so I can display photos, themes, etc., and be able to see them, rather then having them covered with icons, symbols, etc.

I tried them all but only use a few of them. The back up program I use all the time so much better than sprite backup. I like the options that come with Pocket Plus but i disable the today screen plugin cause to me it clutters it up. I also really like the diary program that i use the most.

SPB
I went for SPB after hating the HTC ones. I like the customizability(?) of the SPB screen (although I wish I could increase icon size to be uniform [added ones are smaller than default ones] and add captions])

I was a little unimpressed at first, but then I found out how to really use it to my advantage. I was able to add the HSDPA (H) icon to the home screen as a shortcut to enabling/disabling H connection!

I use it too and like it, but then again I've been using Spb software for years now and really got used to it.
- Pocket Plus (v4) - Top of my Today Screen
- Diary - right under Pocket Plus on my today Screen, fills most of the screen
- Backup - runs every night at 3am with 3 copies kept on SD Card
- Spb Insight - great RSS reader also for offline
- Spb Weather - since I don't use the HTC Today plugin with weather
- Spb Brain Evolution - Game
- Spb Mobile DVD - used to have it but don't need it for TyTN II (400MHz)
- Spb Mobile Shell - Didn't like it
- Spb Phone Suite - Didn't see the point of it
You can try all the SpB apps for 15days nad then just enter a serial nr...

Phone Suite is great because it allows you to set what profile you want.
You can fully edit profiles. The best is auto profile, it will switch to normal profile in normal circumstances, then into silent or meeting mode during a meeting (scheduled in the calendar) and then revert back to normal or loud profile. If you connect a headset it will switch to headset profile automatically.
Very user friendly.

May I ask how you did this? I would find that to be helpful. Thanks

thanks guys! I installed spb yesterday, and i'm trying to tweak it to make it work just the way I want it too. On one hand I feel, the HTC home plugin is simplistic, and sophisticated looking and i should stick with it, but on the other, i feel like the power of pocket plus is immense...i guess i just have to play around with it and find a nice balance!
just out of curiosity..adding all this stuff on the phone, does it make the standard operations slower?

Why do calendars suck so bad?

So I've been lurking on these forums for quite awhile now getting my Tilt tricked just right. . Everything is perfect.
Except the calendar.
I've read the calendar threads and tried every calendar app under the sun. They all suck. Why is this?
Datebk5 on Palm was a perfect calendar app.
Nothing is even close for WM.
I can send a friend a text with a map of my exact location, listen to XM radio, give a powerpoint presentation, and watch YouTube on my Tilt, but it takes me about half an hour to enter a single appointment.
Well I'm currently using Pocket Informant 8, and I think it's the best of an awful crop of products.
Anybody with some ingenuity and a penchant for trying to emulate the simplicity of Palm's calendar apps will make a lot of money - just don't know why it hasn't happened yet.
Comments?

I couldn't agree more, Date Book 5 for my palm was a great app. I have been looking for anything that comes close....so far, no luck

I like Pocket Informant the most, so if you haven't tried it before may be worth a look.
What is it that you don't like about the ones you have tried and which ones?

I totally agree. I've been searching for a good calendar that I can pull up on my today screen but haven't found anything worth installing.
Looks like rlToday (http://rotlaus-software.de/projects/rltoday) might be able to create a visually appealling calendar. Unfortunately I don't have the free time to work on one.

I also use Pocket Informant 8 and it definately is a pale imitation of DB5! PI8 doesn't fully support icons, linking or templates like DateBk5. I really didn't know how well I had it with Palm apps such as DB5. Also, the other thing that sucks about Pocket Informant is that when you post on their forums due to bugs, poor implementation of features, etc. they aggressively argue with you (at least the founder does) so there really isn't the culture to improve the product.

Would pocket informant also let you use it for your calendar but still use today agenda on your home screen?

I have Pocket Informant and also like it the most.
Here's what I miss:
On Datebk 5:
1. Scroll to a day.
2. Start typing a number (the time).
3. Click done.
4. Type subject.
5. Done.
On PI:
1. Scroll to day.
2. Click menu button.
3. Click new.
4. Type subject.
5. Click on start time.
6. Click in start time (with stylus).
7. Click ok.
8. Click ok.
9. Done.
All day appts for datebk 5:
1. Scroll to day.
2. Type subject.
3. Done.
Simplicity, that is the key!
Programs I've tried:
Extreme Agenda - not simple.
Agenda Fusion 8 - same.
Agenda One - same.
OtO - developer has suspended the project - but it has potential.
Speereo Sapie - voice activated app that has the potential to be a killer app - but way too buggy and not very customizeable.
What I like about Datebk5: Simple, customizeable, and powerful enough to handle whatever you throw at it.
If anybody's watching, there is a LOT of money at stake for the first person to make a killer app. I will personally pay more than any of the apps out there to find something that works.

I noticed that too! They don't seem to be the friendliest over there. Glad I'm not the only one.

Maybe SuperCalendar would work for you, easy to use
http://www.scarybearsoftware.com/product_detail.php?productname=supercalendar

Pocket Breeze!!
PocketBreeze 5.4 by sbsh is the BEST Today Claendar app I've seen. It's really versatile and you can add many applications as tabs to use directly in the today screen (not launch buttons, check the site for more info).
If it means anything, I've used it on all my WM PPCs.
For creating new entries in the calendar, I don't find that that much of a pain... But I might be used to it

It has been 6+ years since I have used a plam (i.e. any palm calendar). But I have been using an older version of SBSH Pocket Breeze for a little over a year and I find that it provides many workarounds for the problems I commonly had with the WM5/6 calendar.
It actually is just an alternative GUI for the stock calendar really but it resides on your homepage and really streamlines the process. You can basically set it up however you would like (TONS of settings you can tinker w/).
I just upgraded to BP 5.4 (I think? whatever the newest one is), after unlocking my Wizard and upgrading to a custom WM6 ROM. I am really liking the new version so far, just as powerful as the older version but more streamlined and userfriendly. It's just too bad that the new Pocket Weather app from SBSH blows goats, I liked the old version better...
12day free trial when you download from their site the last poster linked, so you can try it out...

Yes, that's how I have it set up. The today plugin builtin to PI is part thati don't like.
Maybe Im lucky though - kaiser is my first pda so I have less to compare it to considering all the other complaints

Ok I'm trying out pocket informant now, while it does seem to have alot of options, I don't really see what it can do that is better than the stock calendar. What customizations or features are you using? I don't really like how the text is so small.

spb
i use spb PP4 and have spb diary in one of its tabs all by itself..nice font sizes and does all that I need...having a calander app on my main today screen takes up too much real estate. I find this method works well... free trial of both or just diary on thier website.
http://www.spbsoftwarehouse.com/products/downloads.html?en

I totally agree: DateBK was (and probably will be) the best calendar ever. Nothing comes even close:
- week view in DateBK was perfect, PI fonts are too small, AgendaOne looks OK
- day view in DateBK was perfect, PI is the scale way too big, AgendaOne just sucks. Looks like Agenda Fusion is ok, but I don't like the rest of that program
- Other calendars not mentioned above just don't have the native look and feel of WM6.
Now trying Extreme Agenda, but I don't like the dayview. Can someone just clone DateBK???

I just got my Sprint touch and I'm missing Datebk5 as well.
Right now I'm trying Pocket Breeze as I like it's today plugin best. I'm thinking about PI as the calendar, Pocket Breeze will interface with it but there's one problem, when I set PI as the default PIM, it also is used for contacts and darn it, I want to use PocketCM. Anyone got an idea on how to tweak the registry for that?

I like PI and only use it's "Week View". You can configure the fonts and color schemes. I set it to NOT be the default PIM manager, that way you can just map a key to the view you like (PI Week un my case) and jump right to it.
This way it doesn't mess with any contact/task manager you might like and it still syncs with Outlook. I had used PocketCM but after HTC Random access came out, I just use it as my contact manager for it's speed and simplicity.

I usually try a different calendar app every couple of months, usually shorty lafter trying a different ROM and I ALWAYS go back to TodayAgenda.
http://www.tiews.info/index.php?show=&lang=en

I have been trying the PocketBreeze calendar app for the last couple of days. It's not that the calendar app is so great but the Today screen plugin really couldn't do much more!
I've realy been impressed so far. The main compliment is the ability to navigate to basically anything with just one handed D-pad use! The small pop up calendar is well designed.
i would suggest trying it

Try OtO
A new one is One Touch Organizer. It's still in mid development and I think has a lot of potential. I used it on my wizard when it was v2 and now on the Blue Angel with v5, which just came out about a month ago. It is available on the site here and IMHO worth a look.

Must have software

Let's make a list of must have software for your HTC Touch Diamond.
Currently i have installed:
DivX Player
GpsView
NoData
PocketToolman
Total Commander
What software do you have installed? Let me know and i'll make a list of most used software.

Great thread. As I soon will most likely switch to WM (felt in love with the Diamond but then Touch Pro was announced and I think I love it even more) this kind of summaries will be extremely usefull for WM newbies like me.

SPB Backup, Resco Explorer, and ofcourse my own Ultimate Theft Alert v35!
Regards,
Carty..

1. Resco Radio
2. Calc-One (touch theme)
3. Sprite Backup
Feature request: It sure would be nice to have RSS feeds as a dedicated tile.

To me, this thread is a real waste of time. (Ane before you point out that I'm posting in it, I know)
Youre going to get a long long list of programs which people use. I use 4 Spb programs, Resco explorer, Coreplayer, PI8, WAD2, and WA3, and thats what I can think of, off the top of my head.
But you might not need percentile battery and SD-usage on your home screen, or detailed timetabling, or a massively customisable desktop.
Plus, some people are going to use Ultimate launcher, others Mobile Shell, others WAD, others ThrottleLauncher to customise their desktop, so youre going to get a list of a bunch of programs all doing the same. The same goes for backup programs and media players.
So maybe you would be better off saying what you need to be able to see on your home screen, and if you watch a lot of videos or need advanced PIM functionality.
And, this isnt a flaming, it's just this has been said before in every other forum, and every time I just think the person asking might not need all that, they mgiht just want a single today plugin or something.
But the one thing I'd say to get is a theft protector thing, Ultimate Theft Alert, and Where Is My Phone? (WIMP) are the best two.

The last 2 programs you said, thats what im looking for! Just things who will work out of the box, not the hightech replace your home screen software.
Maybe i'll try to make the list so that everyone knows what you need the program for and how it will look like. I also wanted to make categories so mediaplayers are listed in a mediaplayers table etc.

I didn't think of Sprite Terminator, but youre right. I might test all 3, and any others if people suggest them, on my athena. The GPS thing will obviously be different, but in terms of usability and stuff, would be good to have some kind of comparison. But this will all be on Thursday once my A-Levels are over, and thats if I'm not playing MGS4.
And I'm not really one for saying to the very few owners of a new device "will you test X program?" because they might not want their registry f**ked with a load of entries from programs they don't want.
So if you want things tested I'll be sure to test on my Athena. Its got a VGA screen too, but less RAM, so it's more for screen compatibility testing, than actual performance on a Diamond.
Rory

If making a list, it would be useful to write after the program name what it's for and what it does (unless obvious)...

I was the first and right now with version 3.5 (active development) Sprite terminator, WIMP and all others came after.. I also have a lot of additional features lined up for next release. Like, posibility to retrieve contacts, and so on.. Ofcourse remote wipe will be a confirmed feature on next version. (Updates free always )

I Need Ideas - Raphael Programming

Hello all,
I recently started a course here at Purdue University on Mobile Software development (Windows Mobile).
I need some ideas for programs I should write. Please reply to this thread or PM me if you'd like.
I have experience with C#, VB, C++, and C, among other languages.
Thanks
Jason Flittner

how about a dedicated xda forum app?

How about a sports ticker. I'm still surprised there isn't one yet.
BTW, I think I saw a xda app when I was poking around the other night.

I'm trying to think of ideas but my minds drawing a blank...
Here's the XDApp

Gonna expose my nerdiness here, but you asked...
How about an app that accesses the D&D Insider online compendium of rules and data? Not sure what would be involved, but I'm betting that there's no API available, so it'll probably never happen.
OTOH, it would be nice to see a really high quality dice-rolling app that takes full advantage of the g-sensor and the hardware accelerated graphics...something that looks like dice inside a tumbler, you know? Maybe start with a really slick Yahtzee-style game, and build up to polyhedral dice for us game-geeks?
I'd be happy to provide you with some guidelines for building. I'm sure we could find you a suitably good graphics guy, too, if you're not up to that part (I could do that, in a pinch).

I want my phone to do this:
But until then, I would like to see an ap like Skype, but for mobile that will easily switch you from cellular network to VOIP.

I have two ideas:
#1 - I don't know if this is even possible, but an application that turns on WIFI and/or Bluetooth in a receive only mode briefly every few seconds and listens for user selected devices in range and then performs user selected actions.
The idea is that the it would use less power than leaving WIFI and/or Bluetooth on all the time, but when I get in range of my wifi router at home, it turn WIFI fully on and sync my phone. Or when I'm in range of the WiFi at work, it could turn my ringer to vibrate. Or when I get into the car, it detect my Bluetooth stero, connects to it, and opens the music player.
#2 - Probably simpler than #1, a program that turns WiFi and/or Bluetooth on automatically when the phone is plugged into a charger and then performs specific user defined actions, similar to idea #1.
I don't know if programs like this already exist, but I haven't found them.
Dylan

I like these ideas, please keep them coming. I am not sure what the requirements will be as far as our programming projects are concerned but from what I understand I have alot of freedom in project choices!
I am in another robotics programming class working with the iRobot Creates and I was thinking it would be really sweet to program something that could allow the 2 to interact in some way/shape/form!
I am also very excited about GPS technology I wouldn't mind programming something that would utilize the GPS or triangulation!
Thanks for the contributions all, please keep them coming!
~JFlitt

With all that programing skill you could create some pretty neat apps.
Ive always liked the windows desktop interface.
How about a windows xp-like launcher?
Complete with movable desktop icons, windows, etc.
I am aware that wisbar advance desktop allows you to do this, but alot of those skins are a hassle, and they are not very complete. Plus they dont exactly take advantage of any 3d graphic drivers..
But anyways back to the point, with a windows xp desktop like interface it would be easier to use the phone.
I would not have to stretch my thumb all the way to the top left of the phone.
Oh and you could possibly utilize the touch pros capacitive touch panel for controlling the mouse.
You could also get google android working with more functionality. I am aware that there is work being done on it, but someone with so much programing knowledge could really speed up the project.(Im android crazy)
Or, if all that is too much to complete in limited time, then how about an application that will allow multi touch using the touch panel?
And also, resistive touch screens are supposedly multi touch capable.
I hope i gave you enough ideas.
Good luck.

VOIP
Hi,
I have an idea and it is possible.
how about having an app on your phone to configure your SIP provider settings in it ( 5 different proxy ) and then when you want to dial a number, you can right click on it and chose " voip dial ".
Skype already gives you a the menu for skype calls when u right click on your contact .
if you can add a menu to TF3D settings->communication->VOIP and we can add 5 different proxy in it and we can activate more than one proxy at the same time in order to RECEIVE AND DIAL voip calls from our phone it would be awesome since microsoft is not allowing this kind of apps on marketplace .
Tnx

a good "made for raphael" nes or snes emulator would be great since all the other ones out there are out dated and seem to work grat on old phones but are horribly laggy on the touch pro...wierd... the only good one ive found is a jap build of nester (nesterj4u) built for an hp phone or pda im not sure but the keyboard slides out to the right so landscape mode is upside down when i want to use the keyboard >_<
a good streaming media app thats a bit easyer to use than the one that comes with the phone would be great with some tv links on it like surfthechannel or tvdome would be great.
a youporn app to copliment the youtube app would be awsome
hmmm a good compass that simply points north (true or magnetic) with degrees would be awsome for when i drop mine on the roof trying to point my sat.
a simple freeware level would also be awsome since ive only found trialware levels so far
an hourglass would be a fun pointless app for when i get bored of pouring digital beer.
a goofy clip art picture editor could be fun just to mess with. maybe with some fish eye lens and carnival mirror opptions would be fun.
a free streaming radio app would be cool too....
sorry for the long list cant sleep ... figured the more ideas the better
ps. im not sure if any of these already exist havent checked lately so if anyone know if they do feal free to point me in the right direction it would be greatly appreciated

ok, I'm gonna try to have this make sense, but no guarantees. how about a simple titanium plugin framework? something that **doesn't** use mortscript? as mscript is good for certain things, it's not for others. this way there is an easier way for developers to make new plugins for it without having to use a slow scripting language. does that make any sense?

How about a talking GPS
I was out on my mountain bike today. I have a Garmin unit on the handle bars for navigation and listening to music from my Touch Pro in my pocket.
I was riding a fast downhill section through the some trees when I realized I was taking my eyes off the trail to make sure I was still on course.
I've used this http://www.basicgps.co.uk/ for Geocaching but it can only take you to one waypoint at a time. You can't use it to follow a route.
How about making an application which can steer you along a route using voice commands.
(Tomtom and others can only do this on roads, not off-road)

mixture of gps and accelerometer
well can u create an app the tells u ur speed while u are travelling like there is one app which does it in i phone it uses motion sensing and gps there are apis for both you can code it in c# with .net fw 3.5 and if u require help i am available i too know c# .

sound control
What about an app. that would control all of the sound feature such as the ear speaker,speaker phone speaker,and possibily microphone independitly,like bass,trebl,vol. That way a person could tailor the phone to sound the way they want it to sound when they are talking on it or whatever.
Just a thought.

Programing Ideas
A project that I have been toying with is a "Now" button for the calendar. Those of us in consulting need a simple and quick way to insert the current time in the Start Time and End Time field, which ever is selected. I've not been successful so far.

How about that app the iPhone has where you can transfer contacts by putting the phones next to each other and shaking it to transfer or sliding it across to the other phone.
All for now will think of more
*edit* Forget this its kind of pointless when we can send contacts via sms/IR beam

How about the ability to use our Fuze's as remote controls like you could with PDA's, open your garage door, turn on your 360 or TV, forgot to turn your laptop off, send it a signal to shut down from anywhere

There're some cool applications on Android. One application changes the ringtone based on GPS location. It sets ringtone to loud at home, lower the volume in office and automatically sets the phone to vibration when you are in a theater.
Another application is about setting alarm based on location. You can set an alarm about buying some stuff in a store, next time when you pass by the store, alarm goes off.
