Re: [Announce] Call Notify
 

HI,

I was still having some problems with Callnotify and noticed that there was a problem with a chmod command, on line 74 i had to insert a space after 766 to make it :
Additionally callnotify wouldn't notify me of missed calls, and looking through the code it seems that the event type for calls is not correct and i had to change the code to 2:
And i am not sure that the outgoing = 0 is of any use for calls as its the incoming calls that we are missing (although it looks like its not being set by nokia event manager.

And with regard to the voting, the py2deb seems to have a problem, on the page you linked to, py2deb, it mentions the following under installation:
1 march 2010 Py2deb is broken. It creates an incorrect bug tracker link for your package in extras.

You can solve the bugtracker issue easily by editing /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/py2deb.py line 382 changing it from: bugtrackerstr = "XSBC-Bugtracker: %s" % ( self.xsbc_bugtracker ) into bugtrackerstr = self.xsbc_bugtracker

Re: [Announce] Call Notify
 

Rene, thank you for your comments.
Some comments of my own:

Regarding the missing space, thank you, I've added it (probably the hole line is not needed as it works fine with the error...).
About py2deb - thanks, this bugs me for several versions now, I'll fix that line.

Regarding the sqlite3 file (el-v1.db) - Are you using PR1.2? If you do, this must be a different between the firmwares for each region, or something like that. What is the region of the PR1.2 you use? This is not the first time I hear about 2 as the correct event, but for me it works with 3 (and probably for some other here, as they report CallNotify works fine with their firmware). I flashed the global eMMC + kernel.
And yes, outgoing for calls is redundant, thank you.

Re: [Announce] Call Notify
 

Yes it is working in windows

Re: [Announce] Call Notify
 

Yes, i am using the european version of pr1.2. What might have caused this difference is that i did a complete wipe (such that i didn't have el-v1.db).

What might be nessacary is to do a lookup in the events type in the database.
Starting sqlite3 with the database, i get:
Which might be solved by calling a sqlquery on initialisation:

Re: [Announce] Call Notify
 

I see. Well, that's good, but my intention was to check if it can play properly in your N900, not your PC...

Re: [Announce] Call Notify
 

That's a very good idea, but I think I'll do an "or" between 2 and 3, in order to show VoiceMail messages as well (assuming that VoiceMail means the count of new voice mail messages).

Re: [Announce] Call Notify
 

I have checked now through Xterm... The file is working using mplayer command line.

Re: [Announce] Call Notify
 

Although I'm still not sure that checking with mplayer is the same as the method I'm using to play the file, I'll have to assume that if you don't experience any other problems with sound, it's something with CallNotify.

One idea I have about what can be checked is the configuration file - maybe the settings menu won't save it correctly.

Please post the output of:
cat /home/user/.config/CallNotify/conf.txt

Re: [Announce] Call Notify
 

How you want me to check through Xterm?

However, i have no problem with sound at all..


The post from command cat /home/user/.config/CallNotify/conf.txt

"u;n;y;1.0"


Am i miss something????

Re: [Announce] Call Notify
 

Exactly like you did the check in the following quotes...

1. about the "u" in the output - is that a typo? There is no reason for you to have a "u" there, only if you messed with the file manually.

2. No, you're not. I have no idea why CallNotify can't play sound in your device. Maybe it has something to do with a python library dependency I forgot to add to the package. Maybe not. Either way, I've run out of ideas about this issue for now...
If anyone want's to jump in, I'm using hildon_play_system_sound to play the sound.

Re: [Announce] Call Notify
 

Yes it is typo, i'm sorry, the output is

"y;n;y;1.0"




CallNotify was working perfectly with me before PR 1.2, and once i upgrade the to PR 1.2, The sound has gone in CallNotify only.!!!

I have no experience with hildon play system sound , but if you can guide me i can try for you.

Thanks for your help

Re: [Announce] Call Notify
 

ahmoda, try copying the unzipped file to your n900 and running the follwoing code in xterm :
It should play the sound twice.

Re: [Announce] Call Notify
 

OK, now i made some more tests....

I set all setting of CallNotify ( vibration, visual ,sound) ON.

Then only the sound is work....

so in brief...

Let us say (Visual=V & Vibration = B & Sound =S)

then we can say

- if "V=ON / B=ON /S=ON" all working perfectly with sound and vibration.

- If "V=ON / B=ON / S=OFF" Sound will work and Vibration is not working.

- If "V=ON / B=OFF / S=ON" Sound will not work and Vibration is working.


It seems the command of Vibration replaced with sound one and verse visa.. May be.


This is my experience. Hope it will help you.

Thanks

Re: [Announce] Call Notify
 

Thanks a lot rcastberg


Yes it is working great

Re: [Announce] Call Notify
 

Ahmoda, you helped me find a bug. Thank you!
I probably switched between the two. I'll switch it back next version.

Thanks again!

Re: [Announce] Call Notify
 

WoW ...

Don't thank me man, I'm the one who have to thank you for your effort.

Meanwhile , I'll go with option No#2 :) until the next version.

Please tell me when you release the next version , I want to vote for you. :)


Thanks for this opportunity for testing a great application.

Re: [Announce] Call Notify
 

yesterday i had one missed call, the call notify icon however displayed 4 missed calls..upon deleting my call list it however continued flashing the 4 missed calls, the only way of resolving this was to switch the phone off and on again..

Re: [Announce] Call Notify
 

Currently it's enough to open and close the conversation window in order to get loose of a stuck notification, but question right now is what version of PR1.2 are you using? If it's not the global one, you might want to wait for next version because there are differences between PR1.2 distributions that I need to take care of.

Re: [Announce] Call Notify
 

@omeriko- usually that is what happens: as soon as i close the conversation window it stops flashing, but whenever that glitch occurs i would have to turn of the phone! i have the global firmware

Re: [Announce] Call Notify
 

Can you eliminate the use case when a "glitch" happens?

Re: [Announce] Call Notify
 

hi i updtaed to the new version 0.2.0 i think, anyway the last that was on the app.manager. and it stoped working. i uninstalled it and a couple of other program and installed the new maemo update 10.2010.19-1.002 and still callnotify doesn't work.

help please

and i am Numb i don't know anything about linux or other, so if you can post help with all the steps, like open terminal... thnx

tal

Re: [Announce] Call Notify
 

When we expect the ( Call Notifier ) to hit the Extras??
It is very important Appl.

Re: [Announce] Call Notify
 

Re: [Announce] Call Notify
 

Hi tal, do you know which kind of firmware do you have? If it's not the global distribution, you might not see any notifications.

If you do have the global, there is a troubleshooting post here that I wrote, but it does require some linux knowledge, and unfortunately I'm currently busy with my graduation project, so I'm not sure I'll be able to walk this through with you hand by hand. But I'm sure that you can find this forum member's help to be very useful regarding linux (I know I did :) ).

Re: [Announce] Call Notify
 

what do you mean with "use case" ?

Re: [Announce] Call Notify
 

I mean - does the "glitch" happen just like that? You do nothing with the phone and suddenly get the notification? Or maybe you do something with the phone before? does it happen in a usual hour of the day? only in one place or every place? ect'..

Re: [Announce] Call Notify
 

it just happened again:

i got 1 missed call and one sms..

upon erasing the sms and clearing the call list it still blinks telling me that i have 5(!) missed calls...its additionally bothersome because the vibration notification still is going off.

have to reboot to get rid of this condition.

Re: [Announce] Call Notify
 

I have a similar problem with texts, when i receive one text it displays 5. But it stops vibrating once read unlike the quote

Re: [Announce] Call Notify
 

Raubtier, sorry if I've asked you that before, but are you using the global firmware or a different one?

@kylepsp, same question...

Re: [Announce] Call Notify
 

global firmware!

Re: [Announce] Call Notify
 

Please run the following commands in x-term:

sqlite3 /home/user/.rtcom-eventlogger/el-v1.db

and then:

select * from EventTypes;

Please post the output here.

Re: [Announce] Call Notify

Re: [Announce] Call Notify
 

I see.

Ok, so this is exactly the same problem rcastberg identified.

This will be solved next version.

Re: [Announce] Call Notify
 

Hi omeriko9 !

Would be any chance to implement a certain profile based behaviour ?

What I mean, that now you can send sound/visual/vibrate, which is great, but for people like me, using the silent e.g. during the night, the vibrate option can be very disturbing, while during teh day in General mode it is a fantastic feature.

Could you have a tough about it to implement it please ?

many Thanks,

Andrew

Re: [Announce] Call Notify
 

Andrew, thank you for your suggestion.

This has been suggested in the past, see my response here.
Basically it hasn't changed - the app needs to be stable first with it's current functionality before I'll enhance it.

Re: [Announce] Call Notify
 

Hi omeriko, same kinda problem that rcastberg and kylepsp previously identified, but maybe with more indication of the root of the problem... i have a missed call at least once per day, and callnotify identifies this properly to me with the "1 missed call" icon. I clear the notification and callnotify sleeps again.

Then, i go into my call log and delete the missed call, at which point, when i return to the desktop, callnotify tells me that i have no less than 4 missed calls... A reboot of the phone, as per rcastberg, is the only way to clear the notification.

Output from the above sqlite command follows;

1|RTCOM_EL_EVENTTYPE_CALL|1|Inbound call
3|RTCOM_EL_EVENTTYPE_CALL_MISSED|1|Missed call
4|RTCOM_EL_EVENTTYPE_CALL_VOICEMAIL|1|Voicemail message
5|RTCOM_EL_EVENTTYPE_CHAT_MESSAGE|2|Inbound chat message
7|RTCOM_EL_EVENTTYPE_SMS_MESSAGE|3|RTCOM_EL_EVENTT YPE_SMS_INBOUND
8|RTCOM_EL_EVENTTYPE_CHAT_NOTICE|2|Notice
9|RTCOM_EL_EVENTTYPE_CHAT_ACTION|2|Action message
10|RTCOM_EL_EVENTTYPE_CHAT_AUTOREPLY|2|Autoreply message
11|RTCOM_EL_EVENTTYPE_CHAT_JOIN|2|Group chat joined
12|RTCOM_EL_EVENTTYPE_CHAT_LEAVE|2|Group chat leave
13|RTCOM_EL_EVENTTYPE_CHAT_TOPIC|2|Group chat topic change

I'm running the UK version of 1.2 btw... Hope this helps, and thanks for the great app

Re: [Announce] Call Notify
 

Thanks. Looks like you covered another use case I didn't think of - deleting from call log - This is not version dependant issue.

CallNotify counts the missed calls using the call log when it starts. Then it samples the call log every few seconds to see if this number increase. If this number decrease, it "freaks out" like you described. I'll fix that for next version.

Re: [Announce] Call Notify
 

happened again, this time i watched closely ;)

missed call -> call notify correctly displays 1 missed call
i open the yellow notification (the call notify display dissapears) and erase the call list ->this seemingly triggers the bug=

(put the handy on the table, screen locks)
all of a sudden vibration notification and call notify display of 4 or 5 missed calls

Re: [Announce] Call Notify
 

Can you add a function that shows "where the call(country, state) came from", whether received the call or missed the call?

This should be a very popular software.
