I've been thinking about this for a while, and I suddenly had a thought...
If you go into Photo Contacts in your Programs, and then go to Tools -> Options, do you have the "Display photo during incoming or waiting call" tickbox ticked? If not, Photo Contacts won't even try to show the picture when you receive an incoming call...
I'll try
Thanks Christopher maybe I've found what's wrong all my associated pictures are in my sd card, so maybe this could be my problem.
I've change the destination folder from documents to storage , I'hope this could be change the my problem into a resolution act.
The the flag in the option boxes are all ticked ....
thanks I'll messege you if I've have no success :roll:
hey guyz,
wwhooo got my MDA today finallY!!!
just wanted to know. is there a way to showing the contacts with first name, first because at the moment its showing the surname. is there an option for this? coz i cant find it anywhere.
thx guyz,
Snoop
Hey snoop
There's a hack available for you in order to do that. It was made for the Exec, but it works on my Orbit, so should be ok for you. It's attached.
kool thanks. i downloaded and installed the file on memory card.
how do i activite it now?
sorry for obvious question
Sorry for the delay in posting.
If you've installed the cab file then there's no need to do anything now. You can now go to contacts and by accessing the menu on a particular contact you can see the "Save as: First Last" in the contact menu.
I hope this was of any use.
Thats a great hack by Grogo, this has been annoying me for a long time, what i do to get around this after adding contact on the PDA I then sync with my MS Outlook and change contact details "File As > pick option" which Grogo's hack does.
hi there !
I just installed this hack, but I see no additional menu in my contacts.
Maybe because I've Italian version of WM5 ?
Hi Gabro,
this hack wasn't made by me, so I'm not 100% sure if it'll work on a italian version of WM5.
Here's a link to the original post, try asking the author. Cheers and good luck.
de-installing and re-installing again made the job.
Windows deja-vu !
this simply does not work for me ... unfortunately ... is there alternative way to fix this issue ?
doesnt work for me either (wm6), i see the option in the menu but it does nothing.
I used to have this on my exec and it worked fine though
EDIT:
cancel that, If i hold down my stylus on a contact and choose "File As:First Last" it works a treat, only trouble is I cant do it en-mass, I have to select each contact individually :/
I know that 4.1 is only just out & I think it's brilliant. I'm spending every evening checking new posts and playing with my phone like never before. So, before the 4.1 thread becomes the next thread with 1200 posts, I thought I'd start a new thread for ideas for 4.2
Tom - before I found the magic that is B&B I was using Wisbar Advance desktop and an application called innesoft address book which had a great feature that when someone called you, their photo was displayed full screen with their name (see thumbnails) rather than just the standard windows window.
Any chance you could devlelop something similar for 4.2 !!!
Cheers

Here is something that may hold you over, I am still trying to figure out how to use the caller id without the actual slide to unlock, bit here is something to tide you over, jsut a thought
Have a pretty much full screen keyboard for texting in landscape mode? The text appears at the top?
Is there a way we can assign a button to lock the phone rather than go thruogh the menu?
Cheers
Anybody knows if it is legal to include trial versions of apps in cooked rom?
Was thinking rom with included sktools, english dictionary of some kind, IM+, resco explorer, spb gprs monitor included on rom would save time and space. Apps included would be trial versions and ppl haveing bought them could just enter activation keys/serials, others could buy app if thy liked it.

This would be a waste of time and energy for most, these Roms are made to be efficient, the least amount of space used so that you as an individual can place your desired programs, once a rom is built there is no removing/uninstalling of any apps, hence the reason to not put trial versions into a rom, I use several of the above mentioned, but to "Bloat" a rom with them would be ineffecient. Best thing to do is install on your sd card, keep all your initial install cabs in one folder and use that as your rebuild folder. Cheers.

Is it not worth remembering that everyone has a different list of killer apps they MUST have on their device?
If Tom & Meschle etc added every app - the rom would only just fit on a 40gb hard disk!!!
To my mind - the idea is that the cooked roms are a basis onto which you install your own apps to make your own device work?
Constanlty asking for new apps to be added to a rom just complicates the issue. Or am I wrong?
something so i can remotly use my desktop via PPC
then im complete
automated network setup like in the O2 WM6 Premium 1.0 WWE rom
Extended timers & alarms application
I'd like to avoid installing SpbTime on each version
Great job!
OK, i agree, rom should be as slim as possible, but why the hell there is cube, psshutXP, PHM regedit/traylaunch, and office mobile on it then?
Could make an ultra lite wersion. (=
P.S. Dont get me wrong, i think 4.1 is great and it is a lot faster than O2. Just throwing around ideas about how to make it better.
with my original post, I was not really asking for a copy of the app, just would like a much bigger photo to pop up with caller id and liked the look of the inesoft one.
Tom - what do you think?
Just trying to make the ROM easier to use, more efficient.
B&B 4.1 is far better than original ROM from this point of view
TouchFlo for example helps to have everything we need with a single finger move..
Phone app is a lot more usable also.
Perhaps also the possibility to customize HTC Home by default, with more options (number of apps in the launcher, ..)
i don't think that is constructive to add as much apps, i can imagine, when it's released, everbody is shouting "this is not good" and "why did you use this app and not the other one"...and so one. I like it clear, not too much apps...but that's my opinion.
If i want it with all apps included then i start (to learn ) cooking my own ROM... IMHO i am very satisfied with the work that Tom is doing for us all. And 4.1 is just released. Enjoy it and let Tom make a break. He is hard working all the time!
Plugins for new version
Alarms extension (SpbTime style)
USB PenDrive emulator (WMstorage style)
Phone call recording (Audio Recorder style)
Thanks for B&B! Great job!
i have a great idea
Why dont we support Tom and all off his hard work and all the other wizards here, and stop complaining or asking for more.
like a bunch of kids in a sweet shop.
Improving File access
What I would like to see is the File Dialog Changer, I don't know who has heard of it but it is very good! Usually when you want to save files or open them in any application you get access to you My Documents folder. Only some smart apps like TCPMP and others have the option to access your entire pda.
File Dialog Changer changes the way you access your files in opening and saving them for every application, it's just 50 KB and you can activate / deactivate it in System Settings.

And about your wish I can only say that there is already Remote Desktop for WM6, I think I've downloaded it in the Wizard forum. Or use PocketVNC, that is the pda version for VNC. I am successfully using that with TightVNC on my computer. I just have to be in range of my WLAN and can turn on my computer by sending a wake on lan signal (not with vnc) and then access my computer through pocketvnc or access the files on my computer.

I think he had a point though. In the whole thread there is not one message of Tom Codon himself. Did you ask what he thinks? Maybe he has a few ideas of his own? After all, it will be his ROM...
Who says it will be B&B v4.2? Why not 4.3 or 5.0? If there will be another version let him take care of the numbers.
Yeah all the dialers have tiny little pics for the contacts. Is there anyone that would be willing to make them bigger? Or is there a good photo contact program anyone can recomend?
Thanks!
Have you tried photo contact pro

You can use Photo Contacts Pro 3.0 for free
https://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/domore/photocontact.mspx
Very recommended...
not working
Thanks for the suggestion, but I cant see where it's free. I did not fill out the ms survey. Is that required.
Thanks

It is free you just need to login with your "live" details, however here it is if you cannot be bothered Oh and yet me know how you get on wih it as Ive never tried it myself.
i also tried once photocontacts pro and although it has many usefull features i gave up using it... because it made my device very slow when it came to ringing... even with the clear rom it takes a lot to ring... with PC Pro the thing got worse... is the same with you or is somthing with my device (M3100)....
Well
This is photocontacts pro 3.0, meanwhile theres V 5.0 available...
I used photocontacts pro before and I was very satisfied with it. Of course you have to install the program itself AND all of your ringtones in the main memory, then it will not slow down your device. You can find it here:
http://www.pocketx.net/products/photocontactspro_ppc/
And I think, its possible to upgrade the MS Version, so it will be cheaper
If you larger pics just for incoming calls, you can try S2U2, its freeware:

im having a problem installing this on my wallaby, im usin .CAB installer, and its saying "this file is not a valid windows ce setup file, any suggestions?

As already mentioned its a very old version. And it is not freeware, its a testversion sponsored by MS, running for 90 days. So I recommend to everbody who wants to test photocontacts pro to use the newest one from www.pocketx.net.
Sponsored by MS
Everybody can download a test version, no need for sponsoring.
@doozerbob: what cab file did you install?
i used activesync to install it, tried version 3ish and got not valid, tried version 4ish and the demo worked fine, tried version 5ish and it wouldnt even start up, but im presuming thats because of my fone having veeery old firmware
Hello
Ive just got the HTC Touch and its the first time I use a WM phone.
I feel there are many options missing and I'd love some help from you guys. this is my first post.

How do I make some programs start automatically as windows starts ?
The built-in calculator is the ugliest thing ever, i want an easy to use calc and not scientific , not necessarily loaded with options. I used calcium for N95 i loved it it was just perfect and straight to the point. ( http://www.mtvoid.com/calcium/ )

......eum , ill add more questions later
hope u guys can help
edit: Also how can i add more profiles ? like beep once and such ?

Hi
First of all, welcome!
Then please READ here: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Elf
or here: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Elfin
depending on your device
Good luck,
Welcome to xda
Firstly we have a Q&A section here on xda. if you have questions, please post them there.
Secondly:
As orb has already stated just about anything you can ever imagine can be found in the wiki, as he included some links to get you started.
Thirdly (Yes i'm getting somewhere keep reading )
Shortcuts can be created to create new sms's
you will need to know how to make .lnk files which are simply pure text files containing a path, read on here.
To make programs start up with windows a link to the program needs to be placed in the windows\start up\ folder
Try total commander for a registry editor\ advanced file explorer
For programs check freeware websites such as these.
