Not compatible with Nokia 9500/9300 Communicators

Did you have problems getting rid of unwanted calls? Have you been in trouble finding good explanations for your boss or girlfriend? What about cheating your friends and pretending to be in a different place or doing different things than you actually are? You can get out of critical situations, have an alibi or have a lot of fun with just one button press.

Product Description

This application detects incoming and outgoing calls and offers you a list of sounds to choose from. If you choose to select a sound, the audio file will be instantly played in a continuous loop after the phone call is answered, as an audio background of your conversation.

Without Sound Cheater you cannot play an audio file (e.g. with Recorder application) when dialling or receiving calls, because the standard incoming call dialog grabs all user interface and doesn't let you do anything else than managing that call. Or, if you were already playing the sound when dialling/receiving a call, the playing would be interrupted.

Features

- Plays continuously an audio file during a phone conversation
- Playing starts instantly, after the call is answered (similar applications, e.g. for Series 60, have delays)
- Handles both incoming and outgoing calls
- You can add your own cool audio files in the sounds list or edit the existing ones
- Small application size (86 KB); 6 audio files provided (505 KB)
- Stays in the background without disturbing you, and pops-up automatically only when detecting calls
- It offers normal call management functionality (answer, reject, end call), also when no sound is selected to be played
- Plays any audio file type supported by the media player on the Communicator (i.e. all types supported by the pre-installed Recorder application)
- Adjustable sound volume

Usage Guide

Install the application by transferring the .sis file to the Communicator and opening it.

Start the application from the Extras group. It will go automatically to the background.

Incoming calls: when the phone is ringing, the application comes to foreground and you can select a sound to be played by pressing Select sound button. After you have selected the sound you can answer the call either from the application (Ans. with sound button), or you can just close the phone cover and answer from outside keyboard. The sound will be played immediately after the call is answered.
(If you don't want to add an audio background to your conversation you can directly answer the call by pressing Answ. (no sound) button, or normally from outside keyboard.)

Outgoing calls: when you are dialling a number, the application comes to foreground and lets you select a sound to be played (Select sound button). If selected, the sound will be played immediately after the call is answered by the other party. If not, your conversation will not have an audio background.

If you want to configure the application, you can bring it to foreground by selecting it from the tasks list (using Menu key). You can configure the list of sounds, by adding, editing or deleting them (deletion from menu only). Each sound has a name and an audio file associated to it. You can also play the sounds without a call being active.

Notes

- Future releases will be available for free to registered users by using the same registration key.
- The application provides very limited functionality if not registered (sounds are not played continuously, but once and for few seconds only, new sounds cannot be added, etc.).
