Re: [Announce] Call Notify
 

I'm now going to upload a working version of CallNotify, both the app and the settings plugin.

Unfortunately, I must use the symbolic link solution posted by rcastberg, because I have no other way to compile the c library for armel target and PR1.2.
This is despite his own warning about sym-linking to older version of a library - I just have no other way in order to provide a working version ASAP.

The version I uploaded yesterday was sort of a test that failed.

Edit: no good, the auto-builder needs the missing library. Thanks, Nokia! No new version for now.

p.s.

Can anyone compile the c library targeted armel if I'll give him the source?

Re: [Announce] Call Notify
 

A small update - current version: 0.1.2-5 should work Ok, but I'm still having difficult with the settings menu - this might not work yet (crash the settings menu).

Re: [Announce] Call Notify
 

have just checked this and you are right. get the following error message <Internal Error. Application "Settings Closed".>

Keep up the good work.

Re: [Announce] Call Notify
 

i too got that internal message,

BUT,
it seems to be working so yay!

Re: [Announce] Call Notify
 

Yes, that error message will happen every time until I'll manage to fix what Nokia broke with the PR1.2 update.

I'm thinking of taking the CallNotify setting menu out to a dedicated app instead of keep fighting with the compilation tools.

Re: [Announce] Call Notify
 

Agree with mackan1, "keep up the good work".

I'm sure everyone in this thread, and the wider community, really appreciates the time and effort you're putting into this.

Re: [Announce] Call Notify
 

Well, a huge thanks to qwrety12 who helped me compile the settings menu and fixed some bugs in my code - I now have a working version of the full CallNotify (app & setting menu). Just waiting for the autobuilder to work again to upload a working version :)

Re: [Announce] Call Notify
 

Works perfectly now! Nice little app, thanks! :D

Re: [Announce] Call Notify
 

Also Works for me.

good job. don't know what i would do without this app.

Re: [Announce] Call Notify
 

Works like a charm! Nice effort!

Re: [Announce] Call Notify
 

lemme try lemme try :D

Re: [Announce] Call Notify
 

Hi!

I have a different feedback here! :D

I have just tested the new version callnotify 0.2.0-2. It doesn't work on my device :

- When I click on the icon "Call Notify" in Settings I have the message Internal Error. Application "Settings" closed.
- No log no icon in the status bar when I miss a call

With the previous version I had (callnotify 0.1.2-4), the icon/log were working pretty well in the status bar, but nothing happened when I clicked on the icon "Call Notify" in Settings.

If you need more information, let me know. FYI, my phone is running PR1.2 and has just been flashed a few days ago. I was running callnotify 0.1.2-4 after an OTA update of PR.12.

Cheers.

Re: [Announce] Call Notify
 

try refreshing ur application manager and then install the latest version !!


btw for me it worked :D

Re: [Announce] Call Notify
 

Na I wouldn't post if I hadn't rebooted / uninstalled / reinstalled (via app manager AND apt-get) the application several times. :p

Re: [Announce] Call Notify
 

hmm... now how may i help you !! lol :D i cant wait for em to reply

Re: [Announce] Call Notify
 

AutoDisconnect vs CallNotify..

FIGHT! ;)

FWIW both of the newest versions work flawlessly on my PR1.2 device..

Re: [Announce] Call Notify
 

Calvin hi,

You're describing the behaviour of CallNotify prior to version 0.2.0-2.
I can suggest you check & remove the core files manually after uninstall of CallNotify.
Remove (with root):
/usr/lib/hildon-desktop/CallNotify.py
/usr/lib/hildon-control-panel/libcallnotify.so
And then try to re-install.

Re: [Announce] Call Notify
 

Thanks for the reply Omer.

After the uninstall of callnotify, the files you are referencing have been removed correctly.

The size of /usr/lib/hildon-control-panel/libcallnotify.so is 6624b.
The file /usr/lib/hildon-desktop/CallNotify.py contains 408 lines.

+

returns

Any other test to run?

Re: [Announce] Call Notify
 

The size of the .so library is incorrect. it should be 9502b.
About 408 lines in CallNotify.py - it doesn't mean anything because there was the same number of lines at previous (and non-working) versions.

Perhaps you need to clear your apt-get cache? Maybe disable extras-devel, update, and enable it again?

EDIT: try downloading the .so manually from here and copy it to its folder, and check the settings menu.

Re: [Announce] Call Notify
 

managed to download it without any problems..!

one are of improvement could be the sound notification, its very low, even if the system sound level is at "level 2"..

does the visual notification cause a significant battery drain?

Re: [Announce] Call Notify
 

I have removed the cache, same problem. I have replaced the file, same problem.

That's a total mystery, and I am the only one to have this problem! I will try again tomorrow and keep you in touch.

Has someone flash both FIASCO/eMMC image and run callnotify successfully ?

Re: [Announce] Call Notify
 

Regarding sound, I'll look into ways of improving it when there will be a stable version (after CallNotify will be in extras and not devel/test).

Regarding battery drain, I don't think that the visual notification itself can actually drain battery, but I've received a feedback from one of the testers that checking for notification every 5 seconds does have impact on battery life. Next versions I'll try to move from 5 second polling to event based (dbus) notifications, but again, changes like that (and more) I plan to do after a stable version will be in extras.

Re: [Announce] Call Notify
 

Hi Omer,

Thank you for the update.

I made some progress on the voice mail problem. It appears that after processing the VM SMS, a "pending messages removed" signal is received. I was able to add some logic to smsRead2 to check if there were still any outstanding missed calls. If so, I updated missedSMS (since this in theory has changed). If missed calls is zero, I call stop.

This has solved the problem of resetting CallNotify. The only remaining issue is the missed SMS count appears to be non-zero even though I have no visible missed SMSs.

It is better than before since now I still get an audible notice until I check for the missed calls.

If I can get the last problem sorted, I will post the code change.

I would be interested to know if anyone else has experienced this problem with voice mail.

Update:
I solved the SMS count problem by adding "and is_read = 0" to the sql statement.

Re: [Announce] Call Notify
 

workin great here after last update thankyou :D

Re: [Announce] Call Notify
 

mine too!!!

Re: [Announce] Call Notify
 

thx for the good work!

today i encountered a glitch...i opened nokia messaging and sent an sms, the notifier suddenly showed two missed calls that actually never took place, it blinked about three times and disappeared..

Re: [Announce] Call Notify
 

another glitch: it showing me 4 missed calls that didnt occur..

problem is that i cant stop it from blinking as there is nothing to clear from the call list...

Re: [Announce] Call Notify
 

Sound notification not working at all

Re: [Announce] Call Notify
 

When you say "nokia messaging" you mean the Conversation window? Can you reproduce this? Sending SMS gives you three notification of 2 missed calls and disappear?

Opening the conversation app and closing it will usually clear every notification. Did you notice anything special you did before seeing these notifications? Was that happening after sending SMS as well?

And any other notification (visual, vibration) IS working? Did you set the sound notification in the settings menu?

@calvin_42, I have reflashed both, if it helps...
You say you've replaced the .so file with the one I attached in the previous post and it's still giving you the same error? That's strange. Did you do it as root? Have you checked the .so file size again after replacing it to verify that the replacement took place?

Re: [Announce] Call Notify
 

guys: does this app shows the voice mail icon? or it is for missed calls and messages only?

Re: [Announce] Call Notify
 

Currently it's just for missed calls and SMS's. Maybe in the future I'll add this kind of functionality (and more) but app needs to be stable for a while before adding more stuff to it.

Re: [Announce] Call Notify
 

Yes Visual and Vibration are working perfectly.
I also set the sound notification in the setting menu, but still no sound,

P.S. Vibration will work when i disable the vibration option and make the sound on. it seems the program make the vibration on because no sound i suppose.
.

Re: [Announce] Call Notify
 

Unfortunately it's not as smart as you described... Currently the vibration goes on if selected in settings even if you disable vibration for incoming calls.

Regarding sound, if you have some x-term experience, try look for the sound file at /usr/share/CallNotify/missed.wav.
Perhaps you have a problem to play it with your device for some reason - try copy it to MyDocs and play it with the media player. Does it play right?

Re: [Announce] Call Notify
 

not working, trying to reinstall, but still nothing. latest actualizations installed

Re: [Announce] Call Notify
 

(O)fer _cz, check out the troubleshooting thread.

How did you check to see if it's working or not?

And I'm not sure I understand what "latest actualizations installed" means.

Re: [Announce] Call Notify
 

You are right the file is working..

PS. i tried through Winscp( SSH) not via Xterm

Re: [Announce] Call Notify
 

Did you check if it's working in Windows?

Re: [Announce] Call Notify
 

work perfect, thanks omer, waiting for the voicemail icon, just a comment,

Re: [Announce] Call Notify
 

in contacts how comes theres a voicemail icon there?

Re: [Announce] Call Notify
 

I'm checking the package page from time to time. Today I've discovered 5 thumbs down and only 1 thumb up, followed by only one comment.

As long as people keep voting thumbs down (especially without any explanation why), I don't see any new features coming soon, as I'm waiting for a stable version to come to "Extras" before adding any new feature, and for that it needs "thumbs up" votes...
