Are you getting the Contacts menu each time you press the Jog Dial or what was the problem?

Thanks...it was the jog dial thing I hadn't figured...it would be great if this integrated with text/e-mail messaging and worked in flip closed mode...

Too much to ask?

Cheers
Nick

HI tigernet
So could you please describe what was the problem and how you have figured it out?
What for email/text messaging - you can choose between making a call/text/sending an email if you have all this info entered for the contact.
Closed flip comes soon! 😃

How text? Cannot work that out...the previous issue was that it was not clear to use the jog dial to get the letters up...maybe I just didn't read the manual...

hi Tigernet,
it creates two cell phone number entries in contact details, one for calls, the other for text.
The manual comes SOON!!! 😊

Anyone is interested in writing a review for this program?
We are searching for an individual who would write a good, more or less professional review on QuickContact for P800.
If you are interesting in doing this, please send me your contact info and some examples of your previous reviews. We'll discuss the details and what we can offer you for the review.

Having now installed the updated version, how do I access the favourite numbers feature mentioned in the new version?

There's a drop-down menu on the right side. You acn switch between All, Last, and Favorites. To add a contact into Favorites, you should select it (highlight and jog inwards) and select *add to Favorites* from the Contacts menu.

There'll be very detailed manual up today on the website.

Just installed the new version (2.10). This is now fully P900 compatible and appears to work great...some nice features...more soon...

Hello Pad. Great job! I have been playing around with the demo for a couple of days now and its great how you have intigrated some task manager functions like close all aps, and some sman functions like close all aps when flip gets closed. Just have a few suggestions, you dont have to follow them though, its just that I really will find it more easier to use bec I kinda find the searching of the letters through Jog Dial very taskfull and it takes to much time to scroll to the letter that you want.

I got this idea from palm based software that I had before. I placed an explanation on the jpeg already. Hope this helps give you ideas! 😊 IT would really make searching for a contact quicker even with one hand, then you can just scroll to choose the names that have come out and press the enter button and you get options to either send sms, call, send mms, email etc...

Hello Muzikfreakah
Thank you very much!
Isn't it what you described the same what we have made for the Flip closed mode in version 3.0? 😊
If it's not, then I am afraid, I am not getting your idea... 😕

Yes its the same as flip close mode but it would nice if you had it in flip open too but with bigger keys. You see in flip closed mode, you can summon it using any button, the only way to make it run is to go to the apps button and search for the ap and make it run then look for the contact, unlike the just do a long press on the keypad wich takes you immediately to the built in search functin of the flip close mode of the P900 which is already sufficient, only prob is, it doesnt search within the name but starts at the first letter always.

I hope you understand, if you dont I will try to ellaborate more 😊

Okay, it's becoming more clear... 😊
I have added this to the to-do list.

Today version 3.10 is being released - don't miss it! 😊

It would be nice if at flip open mode it would just be the same us flip close mode except with bigger virtual keypads, im not much fond of the Jog Dial thats why. I find the searching for the first letter quite tasking.

Also in the flip close mode, is there a way to make the blue button call quick contacts? Going to applications to launch really taks a lot of time 😞

But the way it searches for the names is brillliant!

I agree with you, it would be certainly nice! 😊
We will work on this, as well as on making the buttons call any applications.
