'thee p910 man' should know such things

well it does many things. it is a taskmanager, a filemanager, a bluejacker, a DTMF dialer and a lot lot more. can change system fonts and loads of other stuff. you have got to download it and play around with it and have a look at the manual for more features (the manual comes in the zip folder when you dwnload the software) [addsig]

I also have the old icon.
Not only the old application icon, but also all the other TERRIBLE icons inside the application.

Please guys, SMan is great and everythig, but please give some work on the icons - they make Sman the most counter-intuitive application I've used.

Most of the times I have actualy to click the buttons to see what the button is for, because the icon does not guive a clue.

For instants, editing the startup application list:
The icon for edit is only a couple pixels different from the delete, and none of them is good!

For old times sake (not that I was here), RTFM!

DTMF Dialer
-------------------------------------------------------------

This module allows you to use your UIQ device to dial on most
landline phones. This can be done by producing the DTMF dial
tones that you hear when you pick up the phone and start to
dial. This is very handy when you need to use a phone
urgently and the only phone near you is locked.

Note: Using this module in your country may be illegal.
Please check with your local laws before using this
module.

The Dial menu contains the following:

Contacts - You can use this option to pick the number
from your Contacts application to be used in
the DTMF dialer. However, do take note that
land lines do not accept the "+" prefix which
you must manually change by yourself.

Use Keypad - When checked, will produce the appropriate DTMF
tones when pressed on the virtual keypad. When
un-checked, you can pre-write the number on the
input area or copy and paste from somewhere
using the Edit menu. Then press the "Dial"
button on the right. When using it in this way,
SMan will ignore any characters which are not
dial numbers. This makes it handy to use. For
example, you can cut and paste an entire SMS
into the input area and just hit Dial without
worrying about SMan rejecting non digit
characters. Note also that the "#" and "*"
characters are accepted by SMan for producing
DTMF tones.




Edit: While I'm thinking about it two things. One, you don't have a hardware profile for anything except Motorola (not that I ever actually USED this of course )

More importantly though:

My guess is that there are two different versions out there.
People with the new icon, please post the link where you downloaded SMan?

if I remember the testing threads properly, didn't the hardware profiler only contain the moto's because of certain features some models supported and not others?

Where as this didn't need to be present for models.

4. This one is the most important! (but I fear may be hard to fix because of the way it uses alarms):

Ideally, I'd like a nice short sound that could go off every 5 minutes to remind me that there's a message or missed call, enough to alert me, but not too annoying for me (or my colleagues!) to ignore. I set up the options accordingly. However, because of the way alarms work, the short sound just gets repeated over & over for about 30 seconds, rather than just playing once.



SMan uses the built-in alarm server on the phone. It is possible to change the play intervals and delays in the alarm server. However, this is a global setting i.e. if you change it, it will affect ALL your alarms and, this change does not survive reboots (minor issue). I thought of this problem before but I wasn't sure whether to do this because it affects all your alarms (even non-SMan ones).

I haven't tried this but you can try it to see if it works: record a WAV / MP3 file that has the desired delays in it and let this play instead. I'm not sure how the alarm server reacts to a long sound file (more than 30 seconds). Does it forcefully stop it and repeat it at the 30 second mark? Or does it allow it to play for its full length?
