It would probably take you less time to find that info than to make that post.

If this should work in my Trial Version, i would think about to buy it, but without testing it ...

Although an application like this will not be able to make it to the appstore dure to the SDK restrictions, yet, there is an appearent demand for it (just take a look at this massive thread).

I don't see why a developer would ignore the demand just becouse Apple tells him so.

It works in the trial. When you go into the "View layout" screen, and resize the calendar by pinching it, just like you would zoom in on an image.

After installing 1.03 my iPhone suddenly vibrates once and then wait a few minutes and vibrates again. Wasn`t like that on 1.02 and have not installed anything else. No reminders either that should cause this.

Have turned off all alerts.

Still having battery issues with 1.03. Usage and standby are increasing at the same rate when the phone isn't in use.

Edit, I just uninstalled it. psuskeels, it's a great program, and I really wanted it to work. However, being able to get through a day without having to worry about running out of battery juice is just too big of an issue. If you get that solved I will gladly pay for the software.

Theres obviously a demand for an app like this. But that does not mean he should charge for it. Just open up a donation page. He could use the ZodTTD method. Ask for donations and reward people who donate with early access to beta releases. Its a tried and true method.

When I buy software for my mac I don't expect it do be useless after every FW update or security patch. Hardware changes and major OS changes like going from tiger to leopard I would expect somethings not to work.

But as of lately it seems apple has gone out of its way to slow down the jailbreaking community. The past few FW updates have had major changes. Useless and pointless changes that disabled a lot of jailbreak apps and they had to be changed. Some still haven't been updated to run on 1.1.4 and with the release of 2.0 and the appstore apple will have all the insentive they need to further there attempts to stop jailbreaking.

That makes me very hesitant to pay for a jailbreak app. If any developer out there could tell me there app will work even three months from now witch isn't long at all. I would gladly pay for that app.

I'm not experiencing the battery issue anymore with 1.03. Standby is 44 min and usage at 8. Will keep a close eye and try to figure out why it happened in the first place.

That's a nice thought, but if you talk to anyone who uses the donation method for iPhone apps, you quickly find that there are some individuals who will gladly donate a proper amount, but those donations are far from representative of those downloading and using the app. Even more disturbing are those who donate an insulting amount (one penny, for example) just to be able to say they have donated, or to gain access to a repo.

If someone is creating an app just for fun, or as a side interest, perhaps they can go the donation route. But, if application development, and providing resources that many find necessary is one's profession, then remuneration for the service is most surely in line.

Individuals may debate over how much an application is worth, and each person will have to decide if any application is worth the cost. That is the free-market system. But, to debate whether it is correct to charge for goods or services rendered is not viable.

As for this application, and psuskeels, my personal experience has been:

• IntelliScreen meets a need, or there wouldn't be the interest expressed by so many in this thread.
• I have not seen any developer be so pro-active in interacting with the community, as well as IMMEDIATELY creating fixes for any problems, not to mention adding features as requested
• If past performance is any indication of future performance, I believe there should be little concern over IntelliScreen's ability to be used on future releases of the iPhone software, particularly 2.0x
• psuskeels has already stated in this thread that if you get a new iPhone when the new ones are released, you can transfer your license to that new iPhone.

So, anyone can make a choice. No one forces you to do anything. If you like it, buy it. If not, live without it. Simple as that.

When I choose "display last 10" SMS messages, then the SMS notification on the lock screen does not show up at all.

Will this positioning bug be fixed in 1.04?

Thanks!

Is there a easy way to get opaque backgrounds in the various bubbles?

Reason: I have the lock screen looking like I want normally. But when an if-new pops up, I'm unable to read the text due to the bleed from the wall paper. I would like to just have certain windows (SMS, Cal, News) to have opaque backdrops while allowing the others to have a transparent backdrop.

I'm up to editing the xml's but I'm not a very good artist if this requires creating new png graphics.

Thanks.

Fair enough. I still like the donation method. You could always have a minimum of said amount to get you a beta spot. You don't have to except insulting donations. Just set a minimum of your choice.

@psuskeels: I can haz a spacer 'widget' plz?
I want an invisible spacer thingy that I can resize and place at the top so that all new sms or email will appear just above my unlock button and not fill the whole screen.
@everyone: I personally think IntelliScreen is the only app for the iPhone that is worth purchasing. Apple should just buy it or give psuskeels a job.
That's just my opinion that probably doesn't and will never matter.

So you actually have to pay/donate in order to _help_ the developer with the application, by using the beta, and obviously reporting bugs/feature requests?

I really don't see the logic here.

Oh, and about the "minimum amount"? What's your definition of the word "purchase" again? If you have problems with psuskeels charging for his work, just look at it as he were accepting donations with a "minimum amount".

[psuskeels]

egording: After setting to 10 messages - you'll have to go back to the layout screen and click the "SMS" icon. The "bubble" will then appear.
beatoven: You can do this by locking the content areas in the Layout screen (double tap to lock). Let me know if this works for you.

@mjohns: You can just edit the XML for a skin and change the image for SMS, Cal and News. It's easy. Make your own opaque image and edit the XML.
PM me if you want, I'll make one for you tomorrow.
@psuskeels: It's the blank space that I want to be locked. I don't want anything to show up on the top 3/4 of the screen. I've sent you screenshots and more details...
Cheers.

P.S. Was the calendar issue with nemussync fixed? Is it working for any of you guys? It still doesn't show up for me.

[mbrooksr]

lol yea psuskeels ive never seen a dev more active.

great stuff, bought it.
