View Full Version : Problems with Caller2Picture

I have searched the forums for "Caller2Picture" but have come up with nothing. So here goes ...

I have the i-mate version of the HTC Himalaya with ROM v1.52.00WWE. I have installed the gitex update. I bought my phone from Telstra Australia, which has added some customized software which replaces the photo in the default IA Caller ID program with the Telstra logo!

I downloaded a trial version of Caller2Picture. I installed it in the default directory, then copied all my pictures into the Caller2Picture\Pictures directory. I then set up a ring and called myself with my spare mobile phone.

This is what I found:

1. Caller2Picture slows down my i-mate TREMENDOUSLY. Doing anything introduces an unacceptably long delay. If I try to open any application, I will be staring at the hourglass for about 10-15 seconds before anything happens.

2. When I get an incoming phone call, the picture will appear as is supposed to. However, there is no name assigned to the number, so I see the number (and the picture) only!

Because I cannot live with the above two bugs, I deleted the application from my i-mate. I am still VERY frustrated that I am unable to get Picture Caller ID to work on my expensive PDA/phone!

Has anyone else encountered the same problem - or better still developed a workaround?

That program as been nothing but trouble with WM2003, I think you'll
better luck with:

Pic&Ring ($10.00)

The application enables you to personalize the incoming call ring-tone and picture according to different callers.
