Regarding Profile Settings

[#1]

Hi Guys,

Just let me know how to set the profiles like "Office", "Silent", "General". I could not find this option in new xperia mini pro.

Regards,

I'm with you here. This seems to be the Holy Grail for smartphones. I've been searching far & wide for this too.

I consider it one of the most useful features of phones past. I know that Nokia (Symbian, pre-Symbian), SE (pre-Android) & Motorola (pre-WindowsMobile) all had this feature. The Nokia "timed-profiles" where you set how long before it automatically returns to the last selected profile is even better.

Just a button/dropdown list to change [ringtone + ring volume + keytones + vibration setting (maybe wallpaper/screen brightness)] really is not asking for much. Why doesn't anyone make it part of their phone or just make a widget to do it???

u can use this also..

being an android phone..

it gives us many many options to customise it in our own style..

like uliwwooly likes the above quick settings app..but i like profile sheduler..

so android helps us to customise the way we want

I've yet to try it, but this seems to be exactly what I'm looking for - one touch profile settings. Thanks!

Even more superb if it could activate a profile based on an event like charger plugged in or bluetooth headset connected. I remember some old Nokias I used to have doing that.

This one looks good too!

It's rules can be set to events based so it can automatically change to a profile for example when plugged into charger or when battery low. Looks useful I'll need to give it a try.

ur choice

TTried them both. Coolmagic not great, but profile scheduler worked a treat. Just need to be able to toggle data (apn) on & off to be perfect. Recommend to anyone who miss phone profiles!

there are many paid apps for the same..but u;ll go nuts if u go thru the settings :smileygrin:

simple and easy apps fulfills the need

I've just spent a couple of hours trying to get profile scheduler to work.  Everything seems ok but I can't get the individual ringtones for each profile to work, it just keeps using my default ringtone/notification tones.  Does anyone know how to overcome this problem?
