Profile Switching, Calendar and time based

Hey, I'm looking for a program that will switch between Profiles (Silent/Vibrate/Normal/+user defined ones) automatically based on defined times AND on my calendar entries (also differently depending on the calendar entry)
I used to have Photo Contacts PRO, which did all of the above (and more it also had an automatic SMS reply option, and the profile could have exceptions for certain numbers)
Photo Contacts PRO seems to have stopped working with 6.1 (Gonzo) so /shrug
So my questions are:
1. Is it possible to get Photo Contacts working on 6.1 or
2. Is there a program out there that does a similar job with Profiles? I don't really use the Photo Contacts part of Photo Contacts PRO, just the awesome profile part
Any hints/Tips etc welcome

and the answer is CTscheduler

It accesses my calendar for timing as well? I read through the description and couldn't find that bit.
Tried installing it on my VOX and when I select the program it just gives me the "busy" circle quick, then doesn't do anything else... (same as Photocontacts actually) is something missing/setup wrong? (WM 6.1)

You may want to try AutoFlight. It does have these features.

Ok Autoflight works, but I don't really feel like rewriting all my appointments for the autoprofiles bit to work. (photocontacts just accepts ANY entry in the calender and not specially prepared ones

SPB Phone Suite (Don't know if it works for Smart Phones as well)

[Q] [WM6.5] Searching GPS-App with SMS service but without internet connection

Hello,
I am looking for a GPS-app that can send my actual position to a friend by sms. The receiving Phone should be able to show the distance and direction to the sended GPS-data without using internet.
I found lots of apps on the www that can send the position by SMS or email. But when I read the description or installed them on my phone I found out that none of them could read the incoming sms and show the direction and distance to the partner without using google maps or other internet-based maps. I also found some apps that can show me distance and direction to a GPS-position, but I found no way how to copy the data from the sms into the programs. Copying to the clipboard from the SMS worked, but how should I get them into the program without typing them on the keyboard, if there is no paste-function?
The SMS should only be invoked by the sending party as one single sms without repeating periodically, that means I don´t want a spy function that answers to a incoming sms with GPS-data without asking the owner of the phone. The software should run on "HTC Touch II" and "HTC Touch Pro II", both with Windows Mobile 6.5. Multilanguage (including German) would be great.
Sorry for asking on that website, but all programs I found missed at least one of my wishes. Who can help me?

Thyme - Send your position per SMS

Thyme is a small and minimalistic tool, which sends your current location as SMS. It uses either GPS or just the fast GSM method. It can send your location as coordinates (latitude/longitude) and/or as web-link to a map view of your location. It is Open Source (GPLv3). When you are interested, take a look at the website url (see screenshot). Feedback would be appreciated

I made an app similar to that not so long ago

**DISCLAIMER**
The location/ points given to you from this app does not automatically continuously update (It DOES NOT allow you to stalk a person). All locations point to where the person was when they accepted your location request.
**Optimal Usage**
Read the startup screen (It only appears ONCE)
if you are using GoSMS, disable the option "disable other messaging app notifications"
Turn your GPS off if you are indoors, turn it on if you are outdoors for a more accurate location

[App][2.3+] Hermes

Hello fellow developers and/or Android enthusiasts,
I wanted to take a moment to start a thread on for the Android application (2.3+) Hermes. I would like to post the application first here to get your feedback, comments and improvement ideas.
Hermes (a.k.a Map My Location)
Hermes is an attempt to provide a sense of security to all the travelers of all over the world and especially the women who use the public transport to commute to their work place and back home.
Hermes is an application that lets a commuter be tracked while on the road, posting the whereabouts at regular intervals on popular social network. The posts are secured and are visible to only those whom the commuter has provided permissions to view. It also enables your friends and family to know your whereabouts by sending you a SMS containing a secret code.
The application consists of two main features:
Track Me
Live Track
TrackMe
Track Me enables your friends and family to locate you easily. They just need to send you a SMS containing a secret code ("hermes" by default). Upon receipt of this SMS, the application automatically sends a SMS reply to the sender containing the Google Maps link of your location.
Live Track
LiveTrack enables you to automatically publish your location on Facebook at regular intervals tagged ONLY to your friends and families. You just need to connect to Facebook and specify which specific friends in your friend list will be able to see the posted location on your timeline.
Why does it need so many permissions?
Read Contacts - Need to get the Name of the person sending request for Track Me
Storage (modify/delete SD card contents) - Needed to create logs and caching
Connect to Internet - Required to make post to Facebook on your behalf
Read SMS - Required to capture an SMS contaning Hermes secret code
Send SMS - TrackMe automatically sends SMS reply to the sender with Google Maps location. Note: Your carrier standard outgoing SMS charge may apply.
Access fine location - To capture your location
Access network state - Used to determine if application can post to facebook through network connection.
Run at Startup - Used to enable live track service after reboot
Prevent phone from sleeping - App wakes up the device at interval specified for LiveTrack
Why the application requires Facebook permissions?
Facebook permissions are required only in case you are using LiveTrack, since LiveTrack automatically publishes your location automatically at defined time inteval. Following permission is required:
Post on your behalf
The app posts my old/wrong location through TrackMe SMS
The application tries to retrieve your location from both GPS and cellular network and latest one is used. To ensure accurate location posting, the application will require either of following in order of preference. All of them might not be practically possible because of various reasosn such as battery constraints (GPS) or your current location (WiFi connected)
Your GPS is turned on
Your Mobile Data (2G/3G) is turned on
Your Wifi is connected
If none of the above is true, the application will post your last available location.
The application fails to post my location on facebook
If the application fails to post your location on facebook. Check the below conditions:
Your mobile have working internet connection (2G/3G/WiFi)
Your facebook account is connected in the application
You have selected the friends option (either Everyone, Friends, Friends of Friends, Custom)
If the internet is not available at the specified time of the making a facebook post, the application will post the location as soon as the network becomes available.
What is the ideal data/WIFI/GPS connection for this application
During my testing, the application works well with 2G connection, providing fairly accurate locations. GPS can be turned on if precise location is preferred during LiveTrack
I want to file a bug report, What should I do ?
Check github issues. Create a new issue and include the following details:
Version of the Hermes used
Version of Android/brand of phone used
