Just downloaded and installed Call Manager for Nokia 7650 from handango.
It does not have that annoying bug about microphone muting.

😃 😃

Oh,sorry,couple of minutes ago latest news was Triz.
I got confused thinking that he talked abotu Smart Answer from SymbianWare.
It can mute the mike while recording? No more annoying beep?
Nice 😃

Hurray,
I am going to try it.
If it is really can mute the microphone,
it will be the really usefule & real answering machine in the market.
The rest can be thrown away.

Guti,

Something tells me that we can expect the mute microphone feature and much more in SmartAnswer from SymbianWare very soon 😃

Well there wouldnt be much point in making yet another answer phone ap that DOESNT mute the mic, nows theres one that does.

SmartAnswer doesn't have microphone mute bug. Take a look on news item:

the only difference is that call manager seems more easier to use.

Im looking at the new smart answer now... Its EXCELLENT!!! I HIGHLY reccomend it, VERY easy to use!!! and straght forward etc...

What !!!
Now I think SmartAnswer is the right choice.

I will go & try out the lastest version which will mute the microphone.

If it works & cheaper , I will recommand it to other coz it is rich in functionality.

I am lucky! I have not bought CM this morning 😃
Now the price is 11 dollars! Concurrence is best for customers!!!!
I will go for it now....I could not hope in further discounts!

Why would you buy Call Manager when there is a product like Smart Answer that is far better in every respect.
Do yourself a favour, at least give it a try first 😃

I tried it. My phone freezed and I had to take battery out to reset it.
Smartanswer is a good program, but to complex for me. I only need answering machine and Call Manager do it well.
Also Call Manager shows in a simple way names of callers without surfing inside.
I do not care menu, or icons.
Anyway, this is only my opinion.

First of all,i'm not saying that Call Manager is not good,i'm sure its a great app too but i would recomend SmartAnswer because it is a great app and SymbianWare people care and listen to your sugestions,you can find Inga and Zeus in almost anytime of the day browsing this forum.

thanks Inga for all the help! 😉

Why do you think that VirtualWare people is not reading forums?
Or that they (we!) does not take care of customer opinions?

Hello Vware and welcome to the forum 😃
Well,just beacuse of the fact i have never seen you here.
Like i said,Psiloc and SymbianWare developers are here 24/7 and many of their app improvements and bug fixes are based on user posts in this forum.
Its a good thing that you decided yo join because you can get very good user feedback here which will be good for both of us (Users and Developers)
I'm not saying anything bad about CallManager,if you have read some other posts about SmartAnswer and CallManager you will see that i sugested that people try them both and then decide which one to buy.
I wish you all the best.

not a single reply from vWare after that one post. no wonder some people think they dont drop by, as oppose to SymbianWare, Psiloc, and Ximplify, you see them often and reply to posts which relate to them. to vWare and all developers who wish to make more ass kicking apps, AAS is the place to be. here you'll get very intelligible feedback (at times brutally frank) about your apps which will be beneficial rather than anything else. hope to see more of you here, vWare.

cheers. 8)

Hey!
Good morning!
Here in Italy, we sleep during night 😃
We will try to follow this NG as much as possible (We are trying to read as much sources of information as possible).

About our software and our concurrent, we absolutely agree with the need to install and try both of them to decide which to buy. I am sure they are both good softwares.

Our target is to develop interesting application that works well.
And, if we are lucky, that nobody else has developed yet!

just suggestion:
when Smart answer icon is on, then nokia battery charge indicator is covered completely. seems to be quite inconvenient to monitor battery status if one cares. is there any way to make Smart answer icon a little bit smaller so i can see battery status as well. TIA.

I must say WELL DONE to sAnswer60!

hey everyone,
just tried the smartanswer, but there's this question - when playing back messages, i notice that it's only out on speaker phone.

is there any setting or anything else, that enables you to listen to messages in private? (without speaker)

cheers
