nothing compares to iLaunch feature, its few commercial apps joint together but on steroids, as i mentioned inside my app, its the most powerful feature in AOS&L
it might look like another app (the Popup window), but under the hood the customization is unmatched
besides launching apps, internet links, calling people, and controlling AOS&L features, you can record (manually entered) anything you do on your phone (keys and trackpad inputs) and make iLaunch play it again, few people mentioned 3g and bluetooth toggle.
hope this helps
@Legal Eagle: See... that clever iLaunch can be used for a careful combination of actions involving phoning the wife\girlfriend\butler\slave, selecting the correct audio message "Need Beer Now", and then supplying map to the fridge.... can't see how that can fail to get you a beer.

lol, its doable with ilaunch, but blackberry cannot play an audio message while in a phone call
but thats also a nice example of the capabilities of iLaunch
It can't play an audio message? Well, in that case, I'll have to revert to sending orders via text messages.
Just have to work out how to insert my GPS location into the message now...
I even have a name for the feature: The "Beer2Here App" (Obviously can be adjusted to other Food and Drink products...)
This gives me a good excuse to now go and really play with iLaunch...
getting GPS location can be done using a free GPS app that displays your coordinates, so ilaunch can start the GPS app, request it to show the GPS coordinates, use selection from menu to copy the coordinates text, close the GPS app, then start Email, SMS or BBM and choose a contact, use paste in menu (or trackpad click and alt keys, available in iLaunch ) then send
All of the above can be recorded using 1 custom action and played whenever you want a beer or a friend to reach your destination

the possibilities are endless with iLaunch
Genius. Now all I have to do is find a way to stop the Girlfriend from throwing the beer at me as she seems to be misunderstanding the "iLaunch" term. As with any new idea, there are always teething problems...
It certainly would replace the classic "I'm on the train" phone call. Can all be done with a single click, and a more accurate location. Could see all kinds of genuine uses for this.
I thought I was installing an app to just customise my LEDs... now I am seeing more and more power in here. These macro recordings for the phone are very useful.

But still no solution to the launching guided missiles at I Phone users issue though.
so now that there's custom LEDs and ringtones for contacts, would custom vibration patterns/settings be possible? Would be great for people who need to keep their phone on vibrate most of the time

its already available in my app for network and battery leds
Im not trying to replace the native sound profiles, im just extending them and adding on the limitation currently imposed by RIM.
I think vibration is already available in the native sound profiles for all my app's leds, and if it is not, i already included the missing ones, such as network and battery
BES password locked is a tough one, if you open the info/ help in the device restart feature you will also see a note about the password locked
Indeed the note is there and stupid me missed it. I agree that password lock it part of BES security and very hard to defeat (as it ought to be). I am glad that at least one app that you recommended can change the profile even if locked in 7,1.
Thanks again.
PS A possible suggestion: when reset fails flash a notice next time device is unlocked.

BES lock will stop any app from interacting with the screen, however that doesnt mean an app cant listen or do things in the background, it just cant change anything on the screen

Thanks. A possible idea: one app I used to have would flash an alert if it failed to run a scheduled restart. Can yours be made to do that? Many thanks. ,

what type of an alert? vibration or a popup message after you unlock your phone ?
Removed berrybuzz e quicklaunch... Now only your app on my BB!
Possible idea: not only call but also send sms or email to a contact

Do you mean set up a custom action to SMS a certain person? I have that set up for my son. With one click my phone opens a new SMS and puts his name in from my contacts list. Try custom actions.
