Yes it is. I have been using 1.3 with both the Telstra and TIM 4.2.1 OS's for the Pearl with no problems.

I actually downgraded to 1.3. I know for a fact that 1.3 makes this program very reliable. 1.49 kept notifying me voicemails as sms messages, I DONT LIKE THAT.

That's probably a Tmo thing, not a BBAlerts thing. I'm running 1.49 on Cingular, and it separates notification just fine.

This is the best program ever...

What device are you running 1.49 on?

One thing I noticed, if I am reading mail when one comes in with the important flag up, it doesn't clear that message from the log if I read it. I still get notified later that it came in. I thought it wouldn't warn me once I read it.

I seem to be having issues with the 1.49 release. When I miss a call, the chosen color does a quick (almost don't notice) flash of my chosen color.

I have seen similar issues with the quick flash. As I understand it, it is a timing issue with the built in function for the LED. Sometimes it works perfectly and sometimes I will get a series of almost unseeable flashes and then it will work correctly for a series and then back to the quick unseeable flashes again. It gets even worse if you have multiple color alerts. I also am on an 8703e.

How can this be a T-mo thing? i was using 1.41 and 1.3 just perfect. So it's NOT a TMo thing, as you say.

The ON timing must be at least half the OFF timing time. This is what i did to get the LED to work fine.

I just did the re-install and hard reset - no dice. Still have the quick flash. To the comment earlier, I have on for .5 sec and off for 2 sec. Is there some conflict with the OS LED?

I tried just about ever combination and found setting my ON to 5 seconds and OFF to 1 second did the best for me. I know, this is just the opposite of the recommendation above. Even at this setting I still get the flash (or missing color during the cycle) but it seems to be less frequent. Personally, I think it is a model specific problem with the 8703e's. I haven't seen other people with different models having this issue. Maybe when 4.2 comes out for the 8703e's the issue may go away?

Just installed 1.49 on my 8800c and works as advertised. A must have app for me. Thanks for all the hard work.

[Pizzle]

btw...love the fact that if there are multiple alerts, that it cycles through the colors.

I ugpraded my TMo 8700g to OS 4.2.1 today and BBAlert 1.3 LED and Sounds stopped working (tests wouldn't function). I upgraded to 1.4 and all is right with the world again!

Do you mean the 1.49 linked above or is there another 1.4 I haven't seen? (Handango lists 1.3 on their site...)

TIA,
Richard

BBalerts doesn't startup on bootup any more. I can't seem to find that option. Anybody know where it is? Before I upgraded (OS and BB Alerts) it would start automatically.

This sounds like a great product. The hyperlinks on the original post aren't working.... do you have a new url?

Thanks

Will be uploading to Handango hopefully today as not many problems, one person thinks it could be causing some reboot issues though.
