@rajil.s
@bainsidhe I don't know why the icons revert to the blank icon. Only to not be misunderstood, the control panel does not activate the profiles. You have to use the additional profiles-statusmenu button to set the active profile. @xpress The name is "ProfilesX" it is in the extras-devel repository, category "system". nicolai |
Re: [Announce] ProfilesX (more profiles)
I also am unable to view the status icons. Silent still comes up with the icons, but my newly created profiles don't.
Great work on this. I can finally set an automated 'sleep' profile that I can access through a simple dbus call. |

@nicolai
Sorry because i'm having so many requests, but can you plsssssssss make it that i can select .ogg files? I have installed Ogg support for n900 and i have a beautiful ringtone that is a ogg file. It works with the standard profiles manager, but with ProfilesX the file can not be seen (it doesn't appear) when i browse to look for it. Thank You! |

Re: [Announce] ProfilesX (more profiles)
Can some one give me a guide or quick tut so that I can use ProfilesX + Something to get automated profile switching based on time and day.. ? Asking for that feature to be implemented in profilesx seems to be a long shot cos am sure it will take a lot of work..
I read about SES and Alarmed but am not sure how to use them.. Help appreciated.. |
Re: [Announce] ProfilesX (more profiles)
Thanks nicolai for this application. Much appreciated.
For me, the icons don't work. After having selected and saved an icon for a profile in "Control Panel ProfilesX", next time I want to edit the profile, the "Statusbar icon" field is blank. I would expect the icon information to be saved in .profiled/custom.ini Quote:
Have you got other suggestions for troubleshooting this? Thanks Harald |
Re: [Announce] ProfilesX (more profiles)
No, the profilesx application has its own config file (.profilesx), where
the icon information is stored. Did you a reboot after install? I don't have problems with the statusbar icons. But I heard from other users that they have problems with the icons, too. I will do some further tests. regards nicolai |
Re: [Announce] ProfilesX (more profiles)
icons dont work for me either, everytime i choose an icon, save , then open the menu can check again, the selected icon disappeared, as if i have never chosen an icon before.
any idea? thanks |
Re: [Announce] ProfilesX (more profiles)
Thanks for your immediate response.
To your question: Yes, I did reboot. There is no file /home/user/.profilesx Performing a "touch .profilesx" in /home/user does not resolve the problem. When I create a new profile "Test" in the first place, I get a "Segmentation fault". When launching "Control Panel ProfilesX" again, the profile "Test" is there. I can modify "Test", all attributes as far as I can tell, but not the icon. When deleting "Test", I get another "Segmentation fault", but the profile is gone when re-launching "Control Panel ProfilesX". Thanks Harald |
Re: [Announce] ProfilesX (more profiles)
I tried installing ProfilesX and I set up two profiles, but I cannout delete them-the app crashes. I also don't get the icons. But it does appear that the profile switching does work.

Re: [Announce] ProfilesX (more profiles)
Ive created my own profile but when I get a message there is no sound, I've checked all the settings but it doesnt work

Re: [Announce] ProfilesX (more profiles)
Hi nicolai
If you want me to support, kindly let me know. Happy to run an image through gdb. I have also an strace output available. Thanks Harald |

I found some bugs and made a new version (0.5). New feature: the statusbar plugin hides the builtin profile button. you can select ogg-files (if ogg files are supported). regards nicolai |

Thanks for your efforts. Much appreciated. A couple of observations: The initial problem remains. I.e. After having selected and saved an icon for a profile in "Control Panel ProfilesX", next time I want to edit the profile, the "Statusbar icon" field is blank. There is still no file /home/user/.profilesx There is no longer a "Segmentation fault" when creating or deleting a profile. That part is resolved. Thanks again for your work. Harald |

Re: [Announce] ProfilesX (more profiles)
Lovely application, Nicolai :) . The only thing I would like to see is the ability to use the profiles your program creates with Alarmed. Not sure if that has to do with ProfilesX or Alarmed, though, frankly.

Re: [Announce] ProfilesX (more profiles)
IMHO tweakr is quicker to use, but ProfilesX is easier to setup/change
|
Re: [Announce] ProfilesX (more profiles)
Thank you all for your feedback.
The main reason I made profilesx, and why I prefere it to tweakr, tweakr is a workaround. I used it too, and I am grateful to the developer of tweakr. In my opinion, to supporting only two profiles is a bad design decision. Right after some users complained that there are only two profiles, he made it possible to handle additional profiles. That was really fast. But a workaround isn't necessary. ProflesX uses the same config files like the builin profiles manager and the same "profile-backend"(libprofiled). No hacks, no hidden apis, no unofficial dbus-calls, no fake profile. It is all there. But of course, it would be much much easier (and faster) to implement those features, if nokia would had made this gui-parts open source. Instead of that, I had to recreate the whole gui-parts from scratch. (the same goes for other ui-components (calendar/mediaplayer widget, phone-ui, contacts-ui). And I really don't get it, what would nokia lose, if those gui-parts would have been open source.There are so much possibilities for the community to make this device better and fulfill more user wishes). nicolai |
Re: [Announce] ProfilesX (more profiles)
Nikolai,
Thanks for your great work on ProfilesX and Calendar widget - using them both and am very happy with them. If you are considering some other features/application suggestions, I'd like to request profile-changer that's based on calendar events. I really miss this feature from Symbian, where nearly every profile changer had this implemented. And since you're now familiar with both calendar and profiles API, I can't think of person that would do this better. Don't know how this feature is usually implemented, but the simplest I can think of is: 1) Write a daemon/utility that starts once/twice/[some times] a day and on startup. 2) The daemon would find all calendar events (for the following day) that contain provided strings and grab their start/end time 3) Schedule profile change event to provided profile at event start time 4) Optional - save active profile somewhere 5) Schedule profile change event to default profile (or previously saved active profile) at event end time. This can also be implemented as a feature for your calendar widget. It shows forthcoming events successfully - so you've got point 1) implemented already. Implementing such feature would give profilesX much better chances in the competition with tweakr =) |
Re: [Announce] ProfilesX (more profiles)
Hi Nicolai,
I use this app as well and am very grateful to your amazing work as my life would've been such a pain without customizable profiles... :) One quick question though (that I couldn't find in the thread) - is it possible to hide/remove the standard 2 profiles? Since I get both of them on the short power press drop down menu, sometimes it can be a bit confusing... Many thanks in advance! |

In fact, the inspiration for http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=56101 comes from your World Clock applet. Anyway, minor bug: Original CPA: http://imgur.com/Q5DNB.png Your CPA: http://imgur.com/o0SwW.png As you can see, a long filename pushes the sliders out. What the original CPA will do is g_strndup it before setting the HildonButton's value label. Alternatively, http://maemo.org/api_refs/5.0/5.0-fi...Area--mov-mode but that's rather clunky... It's a shame that HildonButton won't allow access to its labels, as I think gtk_label_set_ellipsize is awesome... Best regards, Faheem |

Applied some patches from qwerty12 to fix this bug with long filenames. And some more UI enhancements to let the app look more like the original one. regards Nicolai |
Re: [Announce] ProfilesX (more profiles)
I had two tiny issues with ProfilesX
1. I just tried Custom Ringtones but after I change profile, two ringtones (from profilesX and Custom Ringtones) would be trigger when receiving a call 2. so I uninstalled both, but the ProfilesX option would still show when I open Settings (will disappear 1-2 secs later) thanks. |

can add extra profiles, maybe custom ringtones require to have only the built-in profiles. Quote:
