Hi All, does anyone know of an app that changes the profile at a given time.
I have to keep my phone on silent at work, but I keep forgetting to switch it back to normal when I get home so keep missing calls.
Thanks

I don't like it (too much function) but THIS is excellent!
gProfile doesn't hold teh sms and email tone settings properly...
Try SPB Phone Suite, works well and has timed option, or Resco Contact Manager )I'm using that at the moment)... both do what you want... google them! You may find, though that if you're using TouchFlo, they won't work, as you have to activate the profile plugin.

Hi all,
I'm trying to get my phone exactly how I like it, and one of the last things remaining is phone profiles.
I don't want to use a plugin for the Today screen, but a seperate app that will pop up when asked and closed when finished.
So far I've looked at PPCProfiles-Pro, PhoneAlarm, and PocketZenPhone, but they all require me to use them as a plugin (except for PZP, which I just didn't like).
Does anyone have any suggestions? I just want to map it to one of the side buttons of my device.
Thanks

SPB Phone Suite's Today screen plugin can be disabled. I use it for auto profiles.
Thanks, but unless I'm missing something, that isn't really what I'm looking for.
I'm trying to keep my today screen clean (just have rlToday plugin with a big clock face on it) and want to make one of the side buttons open a profile manager where I can choose what profile I want (Loud, Normal, Silent, Vibrate, or what-have-you). Hell, I'd settle for the Comm Manager if that allowed me to choose Normal, Vibrate or Silent (seems to only allow Normal or Vibrate).
Any other suggestions?
Thanks
have you tried linking one of your buttons to PPCProfilesPopup.exe
You don't need to run it as a today screen plugin to select the profile.
One caveat, under WM6x PPCProfiles takes a few (5-10) seconds to completely apply the profile. This delay, plus the horrible UI keeps me searching for a better profile manager, but it's usable.
(Running PPCProfiles without the taskbar or today plugin prevents the auto profile from working, I don't care about this, so it doesn't matter to me, but full disclosure...and all that...)
Look at Pocket Zen Phone

Seems like PZP has been looked at and rejected.
My ATT Tilt is set to retrieve my e-mail every 15 minutes. When I use my "Alarms" to wake me in the morning I get awakened if I get a message or e-mail during the night. Is there a sound profile or something that would allow sound for just the alarm and silence the message notices? WM 6.1
I have read where phones with WM6.1 have this feature. Go to Settings->system->clocks & alarms. Go to the "more" tab. There should be a selection available to sound alarms even when device is set to silent or vibrate. Then you can set your phone silent and still get your alarm. Hopefully it is there. It is on this cooked one I'm using.
There is only one option under the more tab. it is "Display the clock on the title bar in all programs."
then just disable the notifications sounds for texts and email. my email notification is silent. and noone is stupid enough to send me a text in the middle of the night (except my sister on occasion when she gets drunk)

Not all ROM's have this feature..it depends upon the builds
take a look at phonealarm application if you want to have full control on your notifications/sounds/profiles etc.
Thanks. I looked at the ap. It's $25! I might try the trial version, but I don't think I want to spaend that much for such a minor annoyance.

u can download spb phone suite for free on xda.
Hi people.
I've spend a couple days searching and trawling around google and various fora (including these ones) but can't seem to find exactly what I want... which is:
I want to be able to disable email, SMS and MMS notifications at night when I'm trying to sleep. However I still want to be able to hear the alarm I've set to wake me up in the morning...
I realise I could do this manually through the "sounds and Notifications" menu in WM6 "settings", but its a right pain in the arse.
I've tried the PhoneAlarm free trial, but it doesn't let you switch off specific notification types like e.g. just email and SMS, but not general alarms.
Anyone got any ideas or can suggest a program. I don't need lots of bells and whistles and other unnecessary control features - just a quick way to set the profile to a setting that turns off email and SMS notifications, but keeps on alarms - I'm even happy to press a button for this each night and don't mind if it doesn't automatically switch at my preferred time.
thanks in advance for any help guys.
ps. I'm running stock O2 WM6.0 UK ROM - I've never changed it... so please, please, please don't tell me I need to upgrade the ROM to 6.1 I'm way too busy and need my phone and pda working at all times to be dealing with flashing a new ROM and re-installing all my progs and entering email settings etc...

I use a timed silent profile that switches back to normal before the first alarm of the day
hi
use spb phone suite for this, it allows you to switch. There are other programs that do this that may be free but i cannot for the life of me rememeber they were i somewhere on here i think... someone started a thread on it
and for alarm use g-alarm as its by far the best out there, if your not already using it that is
Hello. Here is what I am looking for. So far I am very frustrated with my FUZE with this one feature.
I would like to have more control of the phone profile options like I used to have on my Blackberry phones. Basically I want to be able to make set custom profiles as I want them.
For example. With my old phone I was able to use an "advanced" feature in the phone profile section to create what I called a "Night" setting. When this setting was activated the entire phone was on silent (texts, emails, etc, everything was silent) EXCEPT the phone. The phone would ring if I received a call. So it was basically a "phone only" setting. This was perfect at night because I would only receive a call if it was a real emergency.
I KNOW that I can go into the Sounds and Notifications settings and turn everything off except the phone, but I have to do that manually and if I change phone settings everything goes back and I have to again manually do what I want.
I HAVE tried the Inesoft program and the spb phone suite. both have profiles built into them, but no way to do what I mention above with my "night" setting.
Is there a program/script/plugin that will accomplish this?
Thanks for any help with this.

If not, can you just tell me how to use the profile section of PA

I don't use MS, but doesn't it still allow Today plugins to run? I would imagine if the today plugin is running, it will work with MS, but it might be best to check out the SPB Club forum or the PocketMax Phonealarm forums...
Phone Alarm
I used phone alarm with my 8925, but can't get it to work with the fuze. my main use was setting the alarms since i use it for pages also. Can't get the alarm to go more than once.
Try gProfile
Search for gProfile. It's super handy, and... as far as I can tell, doesn't require a today screen plugin.
You should be able to find it fairly easily... using The Google. If not, PM me and I'll see if I can dig up where I found it. It was free...
I just want to know which you prefereren and Why you go for such a complex apps ?
I went for locale and some plugins but lot of plugins where crap .
Sent from my GT-P1000 using XDA Premium App
locale is extremely easy to use and setup and it never failed me. i never had to worry if locale did not execute what i had programmed it to do. i only used it to have night, school, busy, and driving profiles. within the profiles i had some auto sms, volume controls, and a couple other things like in the driving profile launch the driving app.
after years of using it, i on and off tried to setup profiles in tasker but i hated it. eventually on the 3-4th time installing it, i found some already made profiles online. that changed my preference. takser has soo many things it can do but extremely difficult (atleast for me) built in to the app without needing plugins. tasker allowed me to uninstall audio manager, reminders, alarms, shortcut plugins, call plugins, and auto sms.
the reason i MUST have these type of apps is because it can automatically do things so i dont need to manually do it. when im in class it can reject calls, send sms saying im in class, automatically change my ringer volume so i dont ever worry about having my phone ring in class, launch my fav driving app, let people know im driving and cant talk, set reminders incase i forget, the list goes on and on. it is like having a REAL smartphone because it knows what to do and when to do it on its own!
