I never tried it but Google Maps let you set the departing time and date (for convenience do it on computer), send the search to your phone then you set a reminder/alarm in the calendar?

Any way of doing this?
Cheers - did a search first, but perhaps using the wrong terms.

Yes there is and it's not immediately obvious.
First go into meesaging and select POP3 from the accounts list.
Select Accounts
There are several steps
Edit: they are in reverse order here but you should still get the idea.

Cheers for the very detailed assistance - I think I didn't ask the quetion properly though, and for that I apologise for taking your time - am already able to check mail intermitently, but want to be able to do it automatically during the day ONLY. At night, I don't want any checking, but want that handled automatically, sorry for the confusion!

Not to worry, I've tried looking myself and can't see anything!
vgsmail
Try vgsmail, it's having a true imap mail-client, which you can shutdown at night. At least that's what I do. Maybe you can schedule it with PocketZenPhone.
For the rest it's running on WM2003 only WM5 is under development. You can find more about it in 'Push-email now available' at magician upgrading etc..
Regards, M
There is also sevens always on mail, that provides push email as welland can be scheduled. I think they still offer a 2 month trial.
ntil later

I think I'm trying to do what you are doing. Trying to get my phone to update my email and keep "push-email-like-list" of all emails on my Qtek 9100 WM5.
I'm using nPOP email which downloads all my yahoo.com mail. Problem is I can't get it to work with Gmail.com yet. And everytime it checks my email it has to redownload all my emails. Takes 10min to download 400+ email?
Oh well its kinda working and you have lots of options to schedule email checking.

Instead of having to find my current gps manually every time, is there a way to get windows live to automatically determine my gps location when it loads?
Please ask the question in the right section of the forum:
Questions and Answers
thank you
I figured this was a hack on windows live since the options weren't there.
can a mod just repost this in the right place for me?

Do you have the latest version?
Live Search now uses cell-id to locate you when it starts up, just like Google Maps does. Usually that is close enough to work with. Then if you need precision, you can fire up the GPS radio. The GPS radio eats my battery, I wouldn't want it to come on every time I started Live Search to look up a movie showtime, or to find a phone number.

Ok so cell-id, how does that work? Does it automatically select a location closest to you from a list of pre-specified locations or does it dynamically create the location based off where u arE?
Is there an app, like, i.e. GPS Sports Tracker, that can be used together with Google Maps?
Or do you know if I can use CoPilot Live for tracking (and not only for navigation)?
Thanks!

Try Sportypal! It is free and good.
Trackme uses Google maps and is free.
Works fine on HD2 and has geo-fence. Just search XDA.

I assume you too write aboute Sportypal?
Thanks!
Maybe you also wanna try MaspWare GPSmeter. It is not free but it is really worth it's money. Maybe it is a bit too much for someone's needs. I LOVE it!

Eehm...TrackMe , of course!
I used "Trackme" on my Tilt and now have it on HD2.
I use it on my boat at night as an anchor drag alarm. Set the geo-fence for twice the distance of the length of my anchor line. Mark the position when I first drop the anchor. Phone moves outside the circle and it sends me a text message that sets off an alarm.
Also you can get it to send a text or email with position by sending the phone a text message with a custom message created by you. Good to find your phone if lost.
Also when we leave the boat for the day we leave one phone on the boat and it will text us if the boat moves from a pre-determined circle. Text or email has a link to a google map showing the track since started.
hi guys
I need an apps that count up/down then give me an alarm...

Hi guys,
So I decided to create an app based on a simple idea my fiance gave me, and thought I'd come to you guys for some feedback.
In a nutshell, it's an app that will respond to an SMS trigger with the users current location.
1. Someone SMSs you "Where R U?"
2. Your phone works out its location to the closest 100m (if possible)
3. The app generates a google maps link
4. The app SMSs it back
That's the core of the app, but I've also created a "premium" version that has some other features such as a customisable sms trigger, geotagging, blacklist/whitelist options among others
What I'm hoping to get is a bit of feedback on my app and perhaps the way I'm going about a paid version of it. I'm very open to suggestions and I'm happy to provide the apk to the full version for those who want to try it.
Here's the link
Cheers!
*reserved*
Very cool. Thank you for developing

Really Good
Dame Good,
Thanks guys! Appreciate it
by the way I have an issue
Hi, I was wondering if you can please provide information about how to use the black list/white list thing in free version, because I only want to send replies only one person so if I enable white list and add that specific contact to the back list /whitelist list, then will it work or not. I need an answer for this from you and asked from you to add details about this list configuration information on the Google play

Hi chorauoc,
Simply set the blacklist type to "whitelist", then add the contact you want to the list. The app will then ignore requests from anyone else Sorry for the ambiguous use of "blacklist", but I didn't really know what else to call it I'll update the app description to make it a little easier to understand.
Thanks for the feedback!

I love this! Its a simple way for me to know where my 8 year old daughter is and make sure she is where she should be if out at a friends playing! I can see this app will become invaluae to me as my daughter gets older and more adventurous in life. Thanks for this.
One suggestion for paid version feature is hide app draw icon if at all possible? As this would stop it being messed with by said daughter who by the way knows I keep tabs on her but accepts and understands why I do so, as my mother used to say 'Only privacy any child should have is in the bathroom!' But just because she knows does not mean she won't mess

Hi mate,
Thanks for the feedback! I'll have a look at your request and see if I can get it in over the next few days
Let me know if you think of anything else.
I bought the paid app tried it out with my girlfriend but I couldn't get it to work. I used the default phrase and she sent me two messages asking "where are you?" But nothing happened. I have a note 2 on sprint, and when I clicked on last location it crashed. Nice idea though.

Great idea, works fine in my sgh 699

Hi there,
I'd be pretty keen to send you a bit of a debug version of the app to get some more info on why this is happening. I'm sure there are hundreds of possible combinations of settings and the like I missed while testing Would you be happy to install and test an apk if I sent it to you??
Can you make an improvement
Hi,
I really like this app and i would like to make a suggestion and i will be really happy if you can implement it on your app,
Ie
Can you implement an emergencies response to send the contact in the white-list, means if you could be able to identify the emergencies like not answering , sim change, not switch on for long time, etc.
If i further explain this,
Suppose I am not answering phone calls for log time period or my phone is suddenly switch off and not switch on for longer time (may be day or 3 days) , then we can assume that i may in a trouble so i would be happy to send my location via sms to my white-list contact, but at that time i may not be able to do it manually so if you can implement a way to auto response to contact that would be really nice. Also let say someone stolen my phone and tried to replace the sim card of it, so at that time you can implement a auto response massage by saying your current location as well as the new sim number (In order to do this you may have to record current sim details in a database and check periodically when a new sim change occurs ).Also if you can add a method to add pre-define locations, means if i or my contact went to home then i might be able to save my current location as home or if i or my other contact went to someplace (let say office) that we commonly goes we should be able to add it into a list, so when in the next time when my contact or i went to that places we should received sms by saying that we are in that place now (Simply means by doing this we can be sure that the person i was wondering to locate arrives safely home or any other pre-define places even i forget to send location massage via sms).
So if you can implement such a auto response method then this app will be a great one. Hope you will do this
I wil add ideas for make this app better in future :fingers-crossed:

So I've finally managed to implement your request (It took me a little longer than I planned ) You should get the update in a few hours. If you want to bring the icon back, install the Unhider and toggle it there Let me know how it works out for you.

I really like your idea with the emergency contacts, but I think it's a little out of scope for this app. Could be a good idea for my next app though
I like your 2nd idea too, but that would require constant location monitoring which can be very taxing on the phones battery. I like the idea of being able to save locations though, so the app could respond "I am currently at home" or some such You have plenty of good ideas!!
found small bug
Hi,
First of all thank you for your attention of my comments, anyway I found a small bug in this app, that is if we close this app using a task killer or clean master apps or anything have the capability of stop the service then this app not restart properly and we have to manually start the app again to get work, so can you fixed this bug, because as far as I believe the app should be in active status of anytime, hope you will consider about it, finally are you going to implement the location savings things in your app
