Advance OS and LED update time. V16.0 now available. Now with compact popups!!
Just want everyone to know that its update time to one of the very best apps for BlackBerry!! Advance OS and LED and Sultan Al Sooz has yet another great update to his super app. If you use this app head over to BlackBerry World and download version 16.0 and get some great new features. As before this update is available in both Free and Pro versions of the app so we all get the new features. Sultan continues to amaze me not only with this app and the fact that he continues to find ways to make it better and better but also with his customer support so I think a lot of you will like this update.
Sultan said this update is all about LEDs and the popups features. You can now create your own LED contact groups as well as make your popups look smaller depending on how you desire. I have read thru the forums and a lot of people were requesting smaller popups and like I said Sultan listens to his customers and gave us the option to do just that.
Here is the change log for version 16.0
- Increased the free versions LED contacts from 10 to 12 contacts.
- Added Built-in App Quick contacts for LED. (No more linking BBM contacts to Phone Contacts)
- Added LED contact groups to easily manage all LED contacts.
- Added popups compact style to make popups size very small.
- Changed popups keyboard shortcuts for simplicity (call, menu, escape, hangup, space keys).
- Added 3 and 5 seconds popup time.
- As well as many bug fixes.
The update is live in BlackBerry World now so head over for the download. If you haven't tried this app yet here are the links to both versions.
*Free version

* Pro version

Just so everyone knows there isn't much difference between the Free and Pro versions and I'm sure most of you are like me in that you could get by with the free version but we have the Pro version in support of Sultan and all his hard work. So if your not sure if you want to move to the Pro version just remember that Sultan spends a lot of time and effort to keep this app the very best for our BlackBerry. So just get the Pro version and support the developer.

I suggested that if the APIs allowed it YOU would be the man to tweak the OS to control it.
Any idea if it is possible to hide the "available" green icon on a contact by contact basis for BBM Voice (on their end)? If not, is there a way to toggle "availability" /showing that you are connected to wifi for ALL BBM contacts? Currently, seems you have to disconnect wifi ( not a good solution) or set BBM to busy, which kills BBM chats.
Bbm can only be controlled by RIM developers, If it needs to happen then no one else can do it :)

One of the permissions is "RIM, interactions, recording, applications modules, vcalls"
What is this and what does it do ?
Thanks
Vcalls is AOSLED app, if I remember correctly, the above permission was to change the security timer (phone idle time limit before phone locks) for screen backlight control, or for input simulation such as injecting key presses.

Is there anyway you could add like a function that allows users to choose whether they want the popup to Stop current activity, or to allow it to keep playing in the background and resume what the user was doing? I'm thinking of Leave It On's app where this function works...but I was hoping You could come up with something slightly different but serve it's purpose.
Overall GREAT new additional updates! Keep it coming.
Pressing end key will close all popups AND suspend current apps popups, popups will resume normally when you go back to homescreen.
I prefer user stopping popups, its just one end key press OR menu key twice to select suspend all.
Hope you like the new popups compact style since you kept complaining about the size of my app's popups ;)

EDIT: I do have "Show All - No Lock" for Show Buttons... still no buttons.
You need to select "Show All", as for "no lock" it will hide the buttons, will fix in the next update.

Thanks....
Trackpad is like a computer mouse, you point at an icon then click to open it, so there is no such thing as whenever you click the trackpad my app opens.
Hope this clarifies things for you.
