Unfortunatelly, this because WM2003(SE) is currently not supported. As I wrote, it's mainly due to strong registry differencies between WM 2003/2005 where the system phone state is saved. And in addition I have no WM2003 enabled phone to test it. Thus on WM2003 Admin will work but the main program running in the backgroung and checking the phone's state will not. I would like to add WM2003 support but currently I'm a bit busy with different business and I don't know how anyway. I'm sorry for that.  
Yes, this shouldn't be a big problem, I will add this point to my todo list. But since I have no "push mail" in my FW currently I cannot test it so much. I also need some "overlook" how it is handled in the registry. If you want you can send me exported part of your registry (when some e-mail arrived). Strictly speaking it's the whole sub-brach of HKEY_CURRENT_USER\System\State key. Thanks for your support.

Well, if you want I will beta test a WM2003(SE) version for you, I would love to. If you need an export of my registry or anything else let me I am more than happy to help.

Thanks, if it's possible?

Yes it is possible, but currently I'm not sure whether I will be working on this (supporting WM2003) at all. As I said, there is no system state info available in the registry like in WM2005 and currently I don't know how to check even missed call or unread SMS. The principle will probably be very different. And also: I have no WM2003 enabled device so testing something and exploring is very difficult for me. And finally I will be now very busy with other business and will have no much time for future DontForget development for few weeks. I'm sory for that.

Hi,
I enjoy using DontForget for a while now as well. Great work!
What I am wondering, though: Would it be possible to get even more customization into that program?
What I am especially looking for is the possibility to change the background pic of the reminder screen (maybe you can make this a normal 240x266 size picture that one can overwrite with one's own choice?). Also, editable localization would be nice as well (here, maybe using txt files for that?).

What do you think?
Thanks!

This could be possible but don't forget there are also non-QVGA devices which have different display resolution. Also the text (using black color now) will "overwrite" the background picture a bit and it must be vissible (choosing dark blue background and using black text is not so good   )
Instead, I thought about an option to disable reminder screen at all, just sound,LED or vibration will remind you and no window will pop-up as now. And finally my plan is to have this window active, so you can select some "event" reported and you will be transferred to the appropriate application e.g. Call History Log etc.

Also, editable localization would be nice as well (here, maybe using txt files for that?).

Also possible, but currently I choose diffrent "screenplay" for localization, and of course using some simple text file is much more dangerous for program stability etc. But probably I will do something with that in the future.

Thanks for tips!

Instead of having "Don't forget of..." why not have something like "Don't forget you have...". It's more direct and addressing the user.

Sounds like a great program. Unfortunately I was unable to test it due to a little problem.  

When I go to the admin screen, I do not see the strings in black such as "Remind Unread SMS" ... I do see the check box and strings in blue "Repeat intervals", "Sound to play".  I tried different localization but still no string show up.  

I am suspecting it has something to do with the way the program is handling the font and localization.  I am using a Unicode font as the system font not the default one.  Most other softwares work just fine with my current font setup, but not this one.

Any idea? Thanks a lot

[hujer]

Font "handling" used in DontForget is usual Nina font, which should be installed on most devices. But maybe there are some devices with no Nina font installed or you just remove this font by yourself. But funny is that these blue strings e.g. "Repeat interval" you can see, are using the same font as checkboxes.
- Please try to install latest version again and try it again... (but select "Terminate Service" first !!)
- please send me exported registry branch HKCU\Software\SoftImage\DontForget
- you also can send a screen-capture to see it
- please tell me which device you are using incl. OS version and display resolution (QVGA ?)

I finally figured it out. It was not a font issue but a color issue.  The theme I was using was Vista_J from jdskins.com and I am guessing the strings showed up as white on white which made them invisible.  I switched to the default color scheme and they showed up just fine   That was why the texts in blue were still visible.  

Maybe you can specifically set the color to black in your software instead of using the system color?
Thanks a lot!

Yes, I will do it in the next release. I'm glad everything's fine now.

I love your program and I would like to translate it in french. Is it possible ? How can I do it ?
THANK'S for your work

First, I'm glad you like it  
If you really want to help with translation I would suggest to wait a bit because I will change the "localization policy" soon. Currently all languages are "wired" into the app and cannot be changed(added) without recompiling the code. The next release will use different principle to allow users to add your native language simply - without any code-change.
So, please be patient, I will contact you when it becomes available, for French translation.

Hi Hujer, sorry if I insist with this theme, I was thinking about way for your prog to detect missing call and sms, I reading this topic I think you have this service reading some values from the registry that have change depends of the state of the phone, so I was comparing the changes in my own registry phone with SP2003 but nothing change when I have missing call or unreaded sms, then I think that is the problem. The question is where the hell SP2003 save that info?

Sorry but my english is poor, I hope understand some...

[gemidriver]

I have installed the latest version of the software.  However in the admin settings, i have the check boxes and what not, but there is no writing next to them to tell me what they are for.  Eg if it is SMS, MMS email etc.
Did something go wrong with the install?

Please look what user "cb2002" (above) wrote (incl. my answers). Maybe it's similar problem.
Give me a feedback if this will not help you solving the problem.

Yes, as I already know that's the main problem. And as I expect, WM2003 doesn't store such "state" info to the registry like WM2005 does. Pity, pity and again pity.

[gemidriver]

Thanks Hujer,.

I changed my skin back to the original and it works, pity now i lost my nice vista background but not to worry.
Great program!!

[hujer]

I will change (fix) it in the next release. DontForget will not use system-colors as now, but all colors will be strictly defined by the program to avoid this situation.
