Hello

I'm new here - moving from a android device to the n900.

For what I do, it's much better - except I'm missing a simple feature : call logging.

On android, there's an application called "calltrack" which basically puts the call log into your calendar. With syncing, it means you can easily see which call you missed if you have forgotten you phone, or which call you received on any given day.

A basic google search gave me no such app on the n900 - only this request : http://talk.maemo.org/archive/index.php/t-50452.html

Did the situation change since 2010?

At the moment, I'm thinking about taking something like extended call log from matrim and finding a way to hack out an ical "http post" feature.

But it would be much better to have that as a background function, active whenever a data connection is detected.

Which leads me to the next question : what would you suggest to quickly get started on maemo devel/crosscompiling to do specifically this?

Thanks

Interesting feature request.
What is the use case for this? Just to visualize call patterns?

My use patter is memory based : sometimes I forget my phone at home and I love to see who called "in real time" from work.

Also sometimes I know I have to call back the person who called this morning at 10 or the person who called during the meeting with Mr X but I can't remember who it was because I was doing too many things at one. No problem, it's right in my agenda.

Call logs are IMHO a relic of the past. Their info should be versed in the agenda, where it can be easily searched/accessed/compared to the context

I remember back in S60 there was some program that showed a timeline of everything you did on your phone. Photos taken, SMS, emails, calls, etc. and let you view all of them on the timeline.

I don't see any reason why such a thing can't exist on N900, you just need to find the intersection of people who are capable of making it, people who want to make it, and people who have time to make it.

funny enough, the 900 lacks even of a basic future like alarm call, basically set up an alarm with call option, then select the contact or type a number and when the alarm goes off you can easily call with one click, i think it was on my sym3 n95
