Full screen picture caller ID for the BlackBerry. You can easily identify the caller. Assign different picture ID for different contacts. You can also assign a custom picture for caller’s who are not in your PictureID list or assign a picture for blocked callers. Caller’s with caller ID information PictureID can display the caller’s city location using the North America AreaCode database.

Use PictureID to block unwanted calls. For repeat offenders you can use Pickup and Hangup feature to answer and then hangup the call. This prevents the caller from leaving you a voicemail. The caller would just hear a busying signal or the operator message. Pickup and Hangup is the first on the Blackberry.

Note: Full screen picture will not work when the security or keyboard is locked. Also full screen picture ID will not work on BOLD, 8900 and 8350i due to a OS bug. However callerID blocking will work on these devices.

Is there any way to create pictureID entries on your computer and then just drap and drop them to the SD card and have them recognized? This would be a lot quicker/less cumbersome than doing all my contacts on my phone. Even if its just a txt or some sort of database file that I could edit, it'd be much easier.

Also, does this work while the phone is locked?

How long does the trial last?

How long does the trial last?

I installed trial today and it says it will expire on July 2nd....10 days.

I just did the upgrade. Pretty nice. Insure that you have the Storm version. When I did the upgrade on Mobihand, I was linked to the non-Storm version. After a little frustration, I went to Toysoft web site and got the correct version.

I do graphic design, and have to ask- would you like some higher quality icons for the program, at no cost? I hate to see such a useful program stuck with pixelated icons like that...

This! Please, please, please! I love the functionality of this program, but what's stopped me from purchasing this in the past is how unfortunately ugly it is. New buttons would be a great start. What really matters to me is the font/style of the contact name/number displayed on the screen. It screams unprofessional and just gets on my nerves. Any possibility of turning off the slight white shadow on the text?

Here's what would be ideal for me. Fullscreen contact picture in the background. About 2 cm of either white or black semi-clear gradient, at the top or bottom to highlight the text. Then text ontop of that. I really think this would be much classier and would help you sell more copies. Here's what I'm thinking...



I could give you the gradient file if you like.

ya i have vib and ring and for some odd reason it vibrates once when i pick up the phone all randomly


ever since i put picture ID on my phone it been acting really weird when people call, just doing buggy things. sometime fullScreenpics take like 5 secs just to appear when ringing. sometimes the rings are different, im just saying for 10 $ it should be working a lot better than it has.


another thing is when im in the menu it wont let me scroll up or down it just stays on preferences and wont let me select anything but that


anybody think they can help me out

Vers 1.5 had the ability to individually place the text on the top or bottom; any chance we'll get that back in 2.0?

thanks for the suggestion. how does this look? i have put a alpha on top or bottom and removed the white shadow. you can adjust the alpha blending value.

it was left out because i want to make it more simple and straight forward.
may in the future release.

I don't see a point to the sop if it won't work when the phone is locked. When my phone fades out it locks as I'm guessing most peoples do. I would love this app but there is no way I would keep my phone unlocked all the time.

Full screen in Landscape mode.

Yep I like that a lot more, can the color of the gradient be user defined? I do prefer an image overlay because it looks a little nicer with a bevel, but maybe for the sake of coding/size you prefer an alpha. Either way, I like it much more than the original.

As far as working while locked, that's an issue for me as well that I'd have to consider. I saw your profiler beta now works while locked, can the same fix not be applied here?

i can let you set a predefined color.

the problem is when device is locked you can not show any screens.

thanks a lot man, worked perfectly

[Ultrafied]

OK, making the product simpler is great, but lets not take away functionality. Every picture is not always the same. Some work better with the font on top, others, better on the bottom. The ability to have a specific color for the font in each picture makes it easier to read. Once font color doesn't always work best for every picture. I have over 50 different pictures and no "one color" or "one area" works better for all of them!
I imported my old PictureID contacts and didn't think I really needed to check out all of the them. Until I read this, I didn't realize you actually TOOK AWAY functionality in a NEW release. I'm not sure this is worth the upgrade price now. Heck, you took out half of the good features that were in 1.4 and 1.5!!!

[anon(39569)]

I currently have v1 of PictureID and am glad to see some of the improvements that have been made in v2. This app has a lot of potential and the developer seems to genuinely listen to feedback. One issue that still seems to remain is the scrolling when selecting buttons or fields. It seem so sensitive and is very difficult to accurately select a field or button. Does anyone else have this issue? I swear it takes me several tries at times to pick the right button when choosing between the Select, Remove, Preview button.

BTW: I do like the idea of a gradient. I currently photoshop all of my picture id contacts to have a gradient to give them a cleaner look.

will see about this. so you cant tell who is calling even you have this big a** picture on the screen?

[Ultrafied]

Actually .... NO. Some have have multiple numbers and I would like to see if they are calling from the office, cell or home. I don't want to have 3 or 4 pictures for each one! WTF .... you already had it coded. Why in goodness sakes would you take it out! There was a default color in 1.4 and 1.5 every time you edited a new one. If you didn't like the position or color, you changed it, which I did depending upon the picture. Otherwise, you let it default. It was one of the great things about your program.
If you are going to make the program "SIMPLER", how about not having to create another ENTIRE contact list with the people you want to have the picture show up. Not to bad if you only have a few, but it can be quite tedious if you have a lot. Over half my contact list gets the "generic" picture because I don't have the time to put them all in! Make it integrated with the contact list would be great, taking away functionality .... not so great IMO!
Great feature importing and exporting the PictureID contact list, that saved time. The landscape, awsome.

i have thought about using the contact db but the picture there is just tiny thumbnails. you will probably complain about that being too small.

maybe the added alpha blending feature will work for you in place of individual font and colors. i will post the new beta after testing.

[NiVRaM88]

Not sure if there is a setting for this already, but it'd be cool if you could choose to bypass picID if you don't have a contact picture selected for the caller. This would allow you to maybe use a small facebook-linked thumbnail for random contacts rather than displaying a large default contact picture.

Edit: Another suggestion. Maybe you could add a context menu setting while viewing the default Media app. You can add "Set as Full Screen Picture ID", so that we can conveniently set it from there similar to how the default contact id works. This would add some more "integration" to the app.

if you do not have a custom picID created for the caller then the default Known callerID pic in the Prefs will be used. If you dont assign a picture there then the default Phone app screen will be shown.

so how do you enter the caller's phone number from the media app? prompt your for the caller's phone?

LOL .... whatever. IMO, less customizing options are a mistake, that's all. Especially if you had them in previous versions. That's all. It's your software. Others won't even understand what I'm talking about since they never have seen it.
