Magic Screen for P900/P910: Native Screen Saver with themes! |

Have you ever dreamt about a native screen saver that can work with the native locking mechanism and all of its advantages? About one that will give you a great choice of displaying options and only you decide what to use? A program that supports your own themes? A screen saver that integrates into the operating system and works like its part, a screen saver that saves power?
Now you got it.
 
Magic Screen is a native screen saver application for your Sony Ericsson smartphone that works as a part of the operating system and gives you many possibilities. You can use the program in FC and FO modes. It will replace the built-in screen saver and will essentially extend its capabilities.
Magic Screen works in the Screen Saver mode and provides a lot of useful information about your phone: current time/date, signal level (or flight mode), battery status, missed calls, unread messages (SMS/MMS/Email), next alarm, operator name, cell information, BlueTooth/InfraRed status, PC link status, silent mode, Calendar events, reminders, ToDo and lock status. When using audio/vibro notifiers, you'll never forget another missed call or an unread SMS. Magic Screen comes with a few themes both for FO and FC modes. Moreover, you can use our free theme editor to create your own themes!
Our application can work when you have locked your device. Unlike third programs, Magic Screen uses native UIQ locking/unlocking mechanism. So you do not need to lock your phone with a third party application (i.e. you can use a 3rd party locking application, but this is not obligatory), just use standard system lock! Magic Screen keeps your screen and keys locked preserving from accidental dialing or taps.
Magic Screen is a screen saver that does not activate the screen backlight on accidental taps or keys pressing! This helps you to save battery life. Nevertheless you can use a special hotkey to turn on the backlight when needed! Finally, Magic Screen is the only screen saver that does not drain battery because it works as a part of the operating system, not as a usual application.

Hey SW-Midas,
That's a really nice piece of software.
On a different subject now, are there any plans for implementing a SMS profiler? I.e. - black listing SMS-es based on cell ID? Sound profiles for different numbers? routing SMS-es to different folders based on keywords or numbers?
Cheers,
Ino!~ |

We believe these features are not for a screen saver

It won't install on P800. P800 version will be released later. |

Your website does not display correctly on (my, at least) firefox (v1.5). The middle column (with all the prog info) is squeezed into a very narrow space, making it unreadable. You might want to look into this, as Firefox is getting more & more widely used. |

Exactly, bug in FF 1.5 (was fine in 1.0.x).
They must obey CSS standards as I do. |

 I know - that's why I said "on a different subject", which meant "quite apart from the screen-saver business...etc.etc.etc"
Personally I think that said features would be fitting more the MagicProfiles Pro... but I'd be happy with a (yet another) separate app

Looks pretty cool, although I must say that it may not be the best of times to release it. With the P990 coming out soon with a totally different operating system it may have a short shelf life 
Shame it's not freeware, really, but I can't blame ya

So you think all owners of P800/900/910 are going to upgrade to P990? Maybe a couple of millions will not...

First you must choose a desired theme.
After that, locking your device will raise up Magic Screen. |

Important update
We've just released a small bugfix. Please download it from our site. The version number is the same (1.0), but two bugs are fixed:
- Etel error
- Themes switching.
Don't forget to disable running copy before updating!
