PocketCM on Diamond?

---

Hi all,

I have happily been using my HTC Touch with PocketCM as my primary contact manager for just over a year. I find this piece of software excellent and very complementary to the Touch's interface, making the handling of my 500+ business contacts a breaze. I also recently went through an exercise of adding pictures (via Outlook) to roughly half of my contacts (combination of a dump from a corporate database and facebook!) and again the results when using PocketCM on the Touch look really good.

Having received my much anticipated Touch Diamond and sync'd it up with my contacts I explored the built-in and updated WM6.1 contact manager. My own personal view is that it's much improved and certainly borrows a number of PocketCM's innovations, however for my own personal use and usability still falls short of the mark. In particular I don't find its touch-scrolling as smooth, certainly isn't as quick when selecting a particular contact (nor as eye-pleasing!) as well as there being no option to have contact pictures on the index.

I therefore installed the latest version of PocketCM, however haven't been having much success with it. I previously was using either the default "Dream" or "Touch" skins, however on the Diamond they seem to corrupt the display. By setting it to the "Black" skin and resetting it seems to fix the display issues, however I find it almost impossible to actually select a contact. Scrolling works fine, however when you go to select a contact it is as if it is too sensitive and instead does a tiny scroll up/down - it takes great precision (either on a desk or using a stylus or some luck!) to actually select one.

Also, while if I select "Contacts" from the WM6.1 interface PocketCM is launched (as is desired - PocketCM being a replacement for the primary contact manager, however from within PocketCM you can indeed launch the native WM6.1 Contact Manager if desired), however the "All People" option on the TouchFlow3D People Tab still launches the native WM6.1 contact manager and not PocketCM.

Has anyone else tried PocketCM on their Diamond and would like to help me with and/or comment on any of the above? Much appreciated in advance!

On the same boat, any word on it yet?

Hi Simon,

1- How to have TF3D to launch PocketCM instead of standard PIM ?

For this use SSMA from this post [APP][Update 20/7/2008] SSMaPa (Alpha) 0.2.2 (20/7/2008)

2- Where to find VGA themes for PocketCM ?

See my post here: [SKN][UPDATED 26/10/2008] PocketCM VGA skins for Diamond

or go to PocketCM website where I uploaded VGA skins http://www.pocketcm.com/theme.php?application=1

Have fun.
