Any ideas how to set up a profile (like I have for the Exchange sync) so that I don't get my phone waking me up in the middle of the night every time it automatically checks my POP3 e-mail.
Sure, I could set it to silent, but then my alarm doesn't go off kin the morning.
Sure, I could sync POP3 e-mail manually, but that's a pain in the arse during the day.
I can set my Exchange sync to only work between certain hours, why not POP3?
bump...just this once.
Not really an answer to the problem but i am usng SPB Time for my alarm functions and that overrides the silent setting and has nice big Off and Snooze buttons as well..
Like your thinking deedee...
I use Profiles for Windows, which can be found here...
http://www.winmobileapps.com/device/pocketpc/pwm/pwm.aspx
I have a number of profiles that switch time through the day and then at night it switches the phone off, then switches it back on at 5:30 in the morning.
Works seemlessly - most of the time.

Does anyone know of an app for PPC that will make configuration changes at set times?
I'd love to be able to program the phone to switch to silent for either a specific interval, or on a daily schedule. For example, if I'm going to the cinema, I want to set it to switch to silent for the next 2 1/2 hrs, and then switch back to normal volume and notify me if I missed anything. I'd also like to be able to program the same on a daily schedule (e.g., switch to silent between 11pm and 7am).
Any ideas, anyone?
i think pocket zen phone will do what you need.

PhoneAlarm works very well as well.
Using WM6 Pocket Outlook with our Exchange Server. I want my phone to alert me when I get a new email, but not alert me at night.
Pocket Outlook + Exchange lets you specify how often to check for messages normally and during peak hours. I've set the peak hours to daytime and set it to only manually check off hours.
Aside from that or turning off my phone, any suggestions?
I believe you can configure different alerts using PhoneAlarm, but I'm not 100% sure.
Phone alarm works and so does SPB Mobile Suite. I use mobile suite for some of the other features, but it allows me to create profiles, accessible from the today screen, that control all sounds from the device.
I work nights and sleep during the day, so I have one profile called Bed that keeps the ring volume at 80%, implements a whitelist (meaning only peoples numbers on the list will cause the phone to ring), and turns off email,sms and MMS notifications. Then, when I get up, I just click my profile Icon on the Today screen and select another profile, which again can change all notifications etc. You can also have it turn on or off wifi, bluetooth, phone, etc, when a profile changes. An awesome app. Note: PhoneAlarm does all of this and more, so download the trials and see which one works best for you.
Check it out here.

I bet you will end up with one of these, they are awesome.
Just remembered that I think, Phonealarm didn't allow the whitelist/blacklist feature that I wanted and that was my final reason for picking SPB phonesuite.
Hope this helps
I like SBSH PhoneWeaver:

I have push email and 2 email accounts set to sync every 2 hours. Is there a way to keep push on and still sync the other 2 email accounts but turn off vibration during certain times like at night? I don't want my phone vibrating when I am sleep as it sometimes wakes me up.
Profile managers can do this, e.g. SPB Phone Suite (commercial). Not sure if there are freeware apps vailiable.
You can set yourself up using G-profile and Outlook Email scheduler

Hi all.
I hope I didn't miss something while searhing, but here goes.
I'm looking for a time based profile manager, I know of G-Profile and it's not exactly what I'm looking for. While it does change profile by time, it needs to be setup differently for each need.
I need to be able to set my profiles for an X-amount of time say 3hrs 20 mins and then switch back to "normal" again, alternatevly, being able to swiftly set "mute" or "silent" until specified time, say 15:00 hours and then going back to "normal"
The reason being, if I go into a meeting, I know approx how long it will be, but I always forget returning from "silent" resulting in missed calles. Also, I want it to be on silent when I go to bed but need it to see what SMS came through the night and then by morning, automatically set it to "normal" again.
This is made difficult by the fact that I work shifts and need the phone to be silent at different times every day, making it hard to use G-Profile. (unless I totally overseen a setting in it)
I was wondering if any of you guys know of a program/application that easily can do what I need.
I think you mean G-profile.
And for putting it to silent/vibrate during meetings, I just rely on TF3D's sound settings where it can be silent/vibrate during appointments. I sync my calendar with Google and my outlook so anytime I am busy, phone is in vibration mode.
Phone Alarm - is not free tho.

Yes, of course I meant G-Profile.. Sorry..
Yup, that would have done the trick, if I had the same shedule at all time. If it is to do its trick for me now, I would need to make an appointment of my sleep.. And that's taking it a bit far, I think...
But thanks for your reply.

Any more suggestions out there?
Hello,
I am searching for a way to automatically set vibration from 8am to 5pm (during work).
Like the sense option to automatically set to vibrate during appointment but without having to set an appointment for work everyday, it would look to confusing.
Do you have any ideas?

There's an app called Mute4 that will set your phone to vibrate for up to 3 h; maybe you could ask the developer to increase the mute time to 9 h, or have it adjustable. Otherwise, you can definitely do it with SK Schema.
I used to have a program on my old blueangel that used to allow me to change ring tones etc according to which cell tower i was in, I think it also had a time based scheduler)
Give me a couple of days and I will try to find it.
The downside was that it sucked the battery (back in the wm2003 days)

You can change profile based on time and (in paid for version) location
