Default PPCProfiles: Lightweight Profile Management for Pocket PC Phones

http://www.handango.com/BrainStore/...roductId=158471

"Unlock your phone's potential in a single click. PPCProfiles is a light weight today plugin, phone profile manager, designed for the Windows Pocket PC Phone Edition. Select your most important phone modes and control bluetooth functionality in an instant. Features: Small text based footprint on today screen. Designed with the phone part of the Pocket PC and user in mind. Essential phone functions catered for. No unnecessary 'features' just the important ones. "



This looks pretty cool for a "lightweight" application. Has anyone tried it? If it works as advertised, it doesn't sound like a bad deal for $5. [Affiliate]

Haven't had a chance to test it out much yet, but for 5 bucks it looks pretty good. It even has the ability to turn Bluetooth and headsets off and on. I did a review of PockeZenPhone awhile back which has a lot more functionality, but it can be rather flaky. I think this little app may be more suitable for most people's needs....looks cool!

What is really missing though is the ability to turn the phone off, and on.

Default I don't see the point in spending the money

HP profiles is a dll in th Windows directory that does the exact same thing.

I just put a shortcut to this dll in my Windows Menu and I'm good to go.

Hi Paragon, do you mean this is already possible and you're just wanting an app to make toggling it convenient? If so pray tell how to do it, I'm new to PPC PE and haven't figured it out yet :mrgreen:

Then again I suppose turning off the ringer is good enough for the most part?

Also, do you have a link to your PocketZenPhone review (or link to the app itself) handy? Everything for Phone Edition is mostly new to me... Thanks much!

It won't uninstall. Not the right application for me.
