Photo contacts (not misleadinginformation on WM2005) - MDA II, XDA II, 2060 Windows Mobile 2005 Upgrading

I have to change the story since I discovered after getting a few mails, that the photo contacts application is gone, but it is no longer needed, since all information is now stored in the contacts. It is a lot better than before, because you only need 1 application.
I am using my Qtek2020 for almost 2 years now and one of the features I really liked was Photo Contacts. However, it doesn't work all the time, whatever I am trying to do. When I saw the first screen shots of WM2005 it showed a contacts application with photos. I tought that WM2005 would have solved the problems of 2003 and SE, but unfortunately it isn't true. Even worse, there is no photo contacts application any more in wm2005, unless I don't have the right roms.
I know that you can buy photo contacts from a vendor, but it used to be part of all the previous rom versions, what happened?
Does anyone have an idea about a good extended rom for wm2005?
thanks

You can assign photos and ringtones from the contacts, you must missed that in WM5.0

It's integrated in Contacts application
Check you contacts: the second or third line is called "change image". The same goes for ringtone...
Even better: now the image in contacts is synchronized with Outlook 2003!
Cheers,

Thanks guys,
but can you see a photo with an incoming or outgoing call?

Yes, you can!

otherwise it would be pretty useless to asign the pics
that is unless one had a poor memory and
would benefit from having a picture and name to go together when
trying to renember people

photo contacts
Hi guys,
thx to all, it works just fine and it is a lot better than ever before!

Making contacts picture bigger?
Anyone knows how to increase the size of the pictures or photos that we have assigned to the contact? It is really small...

Why there are no pictures in cotacts edit?

Why there are no pictures assigning to cotacts like other phones...
I must use third party software and Photo Contacts are so buggy, even latest version...
I just want to recommend me some good program that accept home screen contact pictures and ability to call that contact from home screen.
In Photo Contacts you are able only to send sms and even then it makes some problems (resesting, debug screen,...)

Are you sure? I have assigned pictures to some of my contacts.
check the second field from the top in the contact, right below the name field. It's there in both WM5 and WM6.
The same picture is used for Picture Speed Dial when you enable it.

Profile Switching, Calendar and time based

Hey, I'm looking for a program that will switch between Profiles (Silent/Vibrate/Normal/+user defined ones) automatically based on defined times AND on my calendar entries (also differently depending on the calendar entry)
I used to have Photo Contacts PRO, which did all of the above (and more it also had an automatic SMS reply option, and the profile could have exceptions for certain numbers)
Photo Contacts PRO seems to have stopped working with 6.1 (Gonzo) so /shrug
So my questions are:
1. Is it possible to get Photo Contacts working on 6.1 or
2. Is there a program out there that does a similar job with Profiles? I don't really use the Photo Contacts part of Photo Contacts PRO, just the awesome profile part
Any hints/Tips etc welcome
and the answer is CTscheduler
It accesses my calendar for timing as well? I read through the description and couldn't find that bit.
Tried installing it on my VOX and when I select the program it just gives me the "busy" circle quick, then doesn't do anything else... (same as Photocontacts actually) is something missing/setup wrong? (WM 6.1)
You may want to try AutoFlight. It does have these features.
Ok Autoflight works, but I don't really feel like rewriting all my appointments for the autoprofiles bit to work. (photocontacts just accepts ANY entry in the calender and not specially prepared ones
SPB Phone Suite (Don't know if it works for Smart Phones as well)

orbit 2 cube contacts, can't add outlook contacts

Hi guys,
just bought myself a orbit 2 smartphone,
i would like to add contacts with a picture to the htc cube intalled on this phone.
Wen i try to add a contact, it shows me my sim contacts, and not the outlook contacts containing a picture. I really can't find out why it wont show my outlook contacts.
Maybe you guys have a clue ?
Thankzzz
No one ?
Please give me a hand, sorry if this is a newbie question,
but get me going, i can't find any other persons with this problem.
Bump Up we go
Are those contacts (Outlook) available, when you click
on the "Kontakte" Softkey on the left bottom on the Today screen?
Normally the cube uses the same database as all the others.
This means, if you want to add a contact by clicking the + in
the cube it enters the default contacts application where you
choose the contact. It is, however possible to hide the sim
contacts from showing, but never heard it viceversa
You are using the orbit 2 with O2 Rom "out of the box", right?
Olioaglio
Hi olioaglio,
Thank you so much for the reply!
If i use the green phonecall button and then left on the bottem off the screen enter the contacts. Then yes i can see my sim contacts and my outlook contacts.
If however i go to the cube and press an emty photoframe to add a contact to the cube, i see a contact window but no outlook contacts in the list, very bizar! I can however make a new one, menu --> new contact, and then make a outlook contact, but when its made, it doens't show in the menu, so i really cant find a way to do it !?
Im running a O2 rom out of the box, with wm 6.
Its better for me to show you
so i made a little screen video
You can find it here: http://www.megaupload.com/nl/?d=X752XJWJ
Hope you guys have megaupload acounts, i can upload it anywere you like.
just ask
Thanks!
does anyone have an idea what i could do? Based on the video?
Bump, please help me out guys!

[Request] - Facebook sync app

Hi
I have an idea for an app. It should work kind a like the facebook function in WM 6.5, but in another way. Instead of choosing contacts to syng, it should sync every "friend" from the facebook profile.
You log in with your facebook log ind. The program looks at your friends, and if the friend has a number attached, the friend is added to your contactbook, with name, phone number, profile picture, and address(only if the friend has this info available).
Other features:
Auto sync. Each day? hour? week? user choice?
Choice of "Only sync when connected over WIFI"
If friend exist, then update number, address, profile picture, etc.
What do you think? Wouldnt this be nice?
It would indeed, but if i recall correctly fabook has put an end to this. Whether it's illegal or not i don't know, but im sure FB won't agree with it...

Hmm, but there is already a built in function in WM 6.5, but only for each single user, so should'nt it be possible to extend to all users?
http://www.booksync.co.uk/
its for the pictures, correct the names and birthday date
but im missing the sync of numbers, emails...
I used to have (WM 6.1) the option to save the picture as the birthday date to the profile in my contacts.
When I link a contact with facebook in WM 6.5, I only can save the picture, so the birthday is not saved in the profile, even as in the calendar.
Is there a solution for this problem ?

[Q] Anyway to save entire SMS Chat from WM6.1 to PC?

Hey everyone,
I've wondering this for a long time and couldn't find a solution to my problem. I have samsung i780 and have upgraded it to windows mobile 6.1. It comes with the SMS displayed as a chat conversation, which is neat. I want to backup all these conversations, as they are.
When I try most SMS backup software,(like iMobile SMS backup or Godswmobile SMS transfer) they backup all the messages, but they don't save it in a conversation way. They split them into sent or received smses, and its really hard to make sense of things and its tiresome.
Is there any software that can save the entire conversation as they are displayed in wm6.1? (i.e sent-received-sent-received etc)
Or at least someone can think of in this way:
In the conversation window, I can select all, and then copy the messages to Microsoft word or Note. The problem is, it shows very few messages at a time(as the screen is small, so only like 7 or 8 are displayed at a time), and I have to keep clicking on 'Older' to go to the very first sms, which is like a 1000 click before. And its tiresome to copy/paste it in the word, and if one small error, you are pushed back to the very recent sms chat.
Cant I just access the main html/xml file on the mobile where all of this is stored? Anyone knows how to retrieve the file where all your SMS chat/conversation is saved?
Thanks
Okay, I found the software.
Jeyo Software is the one. God, I wish I had known such a software existed before. Its just beautiful.
One more thing, any idea how to restore contacts that were saved as .xml?
Thankx
