Thanks for all the constructive feedback.
When I receive a call, my phone doesn't ring @ all... Is this a trial thing or bug?
Bug: We're currently working on it.
When I clear Calls, the calls are still there until I go back to the 1st Screen and go back to calls, only then it is cleared.
Bug: We're currently working on it.
Can we have an option to show/hide SIM Contacts?
Would be great but not possible as the list is optimised and we get the SIM contacts as part of the set that is returned. If they bother you that much you could delete them ;)
When I exit Pointui Phone, I THINK it kind of disabled my default HTC Dialer skin. I had to re-enable the dialer skin setting through Advanced Config... ( does this have to do with the OEM Phone Skin setting if it is set to saving memory?)
Yes, you can change it back in the settings within Pointui Phone to save you using Advanced Config.
Needs restart when you change theme
Its the safest and least complex way to go. There are more then graphics involved in the themes.
When you click the "windows" button it will go to windows but when you switch back to PointUI phone, the windows loader keep spining in the middle of screen(doesn't stop)
What are you returning to when you hit the Windows button?
I would like to click on time and direct me to time and alarm.
Nice suggestion, we'll put it on the list but no promises it will make it into the product.
I thought one of this squares is a random special button and it wasn't
As in an easter egg? Was there some type of functionality that you expected?
How will this integrate with the Call History functionality in Home? Seems to be a fair amount of overlap between the 2 products.
Thats because Home 2 is awesome. Something we've discussed was having options to have Home 2 call up Phone and focus the particular screen/funcitonality. They are separate products and we're not going to hold people to ransom so you have buy every product we make just to get the most out of our big ticket product.
I said it in the other discussion but just to recap, its separate because, not everyone likes/uses Home 2, there is a market for a dialer replacement, adding all of the call management stuff in Home 2 was asking a lot of it given the technical limitations we deal with already and we wanted to try out some new things without affecting our happy and loyal user base.
Home 2 is our swiss army knife, bang for buck its hard to beat, does more and you can do more then any other UI on the market while still being useful, logical and easy to use. Chances are there will be many Home 2 users who are happy what they have as there are many nice applets to get dialing happening etc. Phone is a specific tool for the job, lightweight, focused and streamlined for its purpose while delivering the functionality people expect from a dialer replacement.
Given that this is a 30-day trial version, does this mean that the final version will be released within the next 30 days? (Probably breached Shane's rule about release dates here, but I had to ask ;P )
LOL, if we take longer then 30 days to ship an initial paid release I'll reset the trial so you aren't locked out.
Is it planned that PointUI Phone will take community themes? At the moment, I would say that alienworkshop's retro suite Spirit might best fit with the existing Phone themes.
Sort out the minor issues and maybe custom themes in the future and you have a winner!
We like a winner. We can't make any promises but we know how much you all love your customisation. We have new methods for packaging so if/when we are happy with the tools and the base set of graphics there will be more info. Please note, this is not like Home 2, there have been adjustments to the way things are done so we get the most out of the rendering and reduce memory consumption.
Q: What theme are you using?
