Guest chucky.egg Posted September 17, 2004 Report Posted September 17, 2004 Reasonable idea, but I don't have "local" internet access from my work PC, and we have strict rules about sync'ing on work and home PCs. Maybe there'll be another way around it.
Guest chucky.egg Posted September 23, 2004 Report Posted September 23, 2004 The UK directory date has slipped 10 days 1. UK (Expected: 6/10/2004) 2. Germany (Expected: 20/10/2004)
Guest chucky.egg Posted September 24, 2004 Report Posted September 24, 2004 Got passthru working and updates are *very* quick over ADSL! Cool! Idon't have Canada on my list though... have I missed something? I have USA, Australia and Malaysia
Guest chucky.egg Posted September 24, 2004 Report Posted September 24, 2004 Ah, I had to do 2 updates... my version hadn't been upgraded since I reinstalled after a Hard Reset That could be a problem for OTA updates - if you have to do several updates to get to the latest version, and assuming they are all approx 300Kb+.

Guest spode Posted September 30, 2004 Report Posted September 30, 2004 Is there a way to save the phone numbers without having to dial them first?
Guest chucky.egg Posted September 30, 2004 Report Posted September 30, 2004 You might be able to copy them with xBar, but that would be about the only way I can see You can always dial the number and then hang up immediately (before it starts ringing). The number will appear in Call History and you can save it from there
Guest spode Posted October 1, 2004 Report Posted October 1, 2004 Thanks Chris.Oroton, I'll look into it
Guest thesandman Posted October 7, 2004 Report Posted October 7, 2004 Has the UK one been released yet? :?:
Guest spode Posted October 7, 2004 Report Posted October 7, 2004 Says it will be released on 6th of October. Which has passed.
Guest fozzie Posted October 7, 2004 Report Posted October 7, 2004 Jeez, this is like pulling teeth! It doesn't say it will be released at all. It says 'expected' 6 Oct 04. Anyway, if it's not available on their website then it obviously hasn't been released ](*,)
Guest chucky.egg Posted October 9, 2004 Report Posted October 9, 2004 The UK directory date has slipped again... Was originally 27/09/04 then 06/10/04 now 11/10/04 I don't mind the delay too much as long as they DO bring it out soon. The UK directory was the only reason I bought this app!
Guest Confucious Posted October 11, 2004 Report Posted October 11, 2004 The UK directory date has slipped again... Was originally 27/09/04 then 06/10/04 now 11/10/04 I don't mind the delay too much as long as they DO bring it out soon. The UK directory was the only reason I bought this app! And it's why others are waiting before they buy the app.... Today is the 11th - lets see if it slips again or if we are all going to be happy bunnies ^_^
Guest thesandman Posted October 12, 2004 Report Posted October 12, 2004 and the UK is up! booyah! ^_^
Guest chucky.egg Posted October 12, 2004 Report Posted October 12, 2004 I get an error when I search the UK directory: "alert. An error occured whilst contacting the server. Please try again" It's odd because if I put obviously duff details in it says "Unfortunately there are no listings that match your seacrh parameters. Try broadening your search by specifying fewer details and/or verify your spelling is correct" That seems to imply that (if there are no matches in the directory) it is working, but that it can't show results when a match is found. Have emailed [email protected]
Guest ferret Posted October 12, 2004 Report Posted October 12, 2004 Is there a way to save the phone numbers without having to dial them first? On the trial version I've just downloaded, when you click on a number, it gives you an option to dial or save it to your contacts. UK directory works fine for me, I've just searched for myself. This app rocks, if only I knew people in USA or Malaysia! Plus 30 AUD is about £12 according to xe.com. Not long to make that back with all these expensive 118 number!
Guest chucky.egg Posted October 12, 2004 Report Posted October 12, 2004 Ah, just discovered that it doesn't like the 1st digit in the post code I was entering "TN6" as the post code, but the BT site (which is what Direct Assist uses) only like the first two LETTERS ("TN" in this case) A bit more error checking would be nice, but it's working!
Guest chucky.egg Posted October 22, 2004 Report Posted October 22, 2004 Does that mean you can enter a full post code in the uk search ... and it works? Posted from my SmartPhone!
Guest Confucious Posted October 24, 2004 Report Posted October 24, 2004 I've just tried Directory enquiries on BT website and can get as far as listing peoples addresses but the "Go" by the side of them doesn't appear in mobile ie so you can't actually get the number - somewhat of a drawback in a directory enquiriy service! Assuming BT fix this, is there any point in Direct Assist in the UK when all it does is access the BT site? Or am I missing something?
Guest fozzie Posted October 24, 2004 Report Posted October 24, 2004 I've just tried Directory enquiries on BT website and can get as far as listing peoples addresses but the "Go" by the side of them doesn't appear in mobile ie so you can't actually get the number - somewhat of a drawback in a directory enquiriy service!Just tried a couple of searches; everything works fine. 1. Do a search. 2. Select (using action key) name from list. 3. Name, phone number and address details displayed. Assuming BT fix this............ Can't see anything for BT to fix :?
