iContact is a simple contacts applications for your Windows Mobile device which will help you scroll your contact list in iPhone style by sliding down your finger in the screen! It's really amazing and if you get used to it iContact could be one of your everyday apps.
The app is very basic, it only lists contacts in scrollable list. Use it for accessing your contacts by scrolling the list with fingers, similar to iPhone. Just tap, drag and release.
To select a contact, just tap and release, and standard contact details dialog should appear.
VIDEO
New in 0.6 are:
- simple favorites management. Sliding a contact from left to right brings a plus sign. It's a little tricky at first, but i got used to it. Tapping on the plus sign tags a contact as favorite. If the contact is already favorite, you can unfavorite it (does that word exist? )
Pushing "Right" on the D-pad brings the favorites window. Pushing "Left" brings "all contacts" window. - "mobile" and "work" numbers have "sms" option. Tapping it will bring new sms window.
- "email" option works if you have configured email account, and have it entered in iContact settings file.
- D-pad navigation is fully supported in contact details. Left key brings you back to contact list, while Right key brings you "new sms dialog" if currently selected number has sms option.
- settings.ini file has been added. It must reside in the same directory as iContact.exe. You can setup your email account in there and you can also setup strings used throughout the app ("mobile", "sms", "ABC" etc ...)
- other small fixes

yeah may be not, BUT its for sure working on wm5 and wm6 very fast !
Sebastian wrote ...
Hei.. this is awsome.Thanks alot. I found a problem which is quite annoying. The keyboard shortcut on my WM6 does not disappear the first time i launch the program, and will give problems when opened too. If I minimize iContact and re-switch to it the problem cleared. I think there is a problem when you first launch the program. The keyboard is not hidden correctly.

Doesn't work on either of my ppc 2003. Can nyou make an update for compatibility? Thanks!
Amyn wrote ...
It CRASHED! I clicked on the Name and it showed details. I clicked again and it opened the original Contact manager and then crashed. Secondly, There is no way to close the alphabet box without selecting any alphabet. Thirdly, it doesn't display any phonenumbers with names and there is not setting to do that. Lastly, no call button from the main list to call. have to click a lot of times before making a call. and it doesn't replace the original contact manager. It doesn't show any pictures in the list view. and when you use teh keys to scroll, it doesn't skip teh alphabets when the key is pressed. So, loaded it and unloaded it immediately.
SPVM700 wrote ...
excellent software.. its really a fantastic tool. very easy to browse contacts.. it works perfectly in WM5. TO THE AUTHOR: is there any way I can replace my contacts shortcut link to directly open icontacts.
SwerONER wrote on his mobile ...
@spvm700 to have it set to your shortcut key you'll have to get a registry key editor its simple to do but I've forgotten how to I've been using this program for a few months its awesome no problems on my mogul
vivek wrote on his mobile ...
this is great. Works perfectly on my p3400
nathan wrote ...
i installed it on my ppc6800 but i have to click on the file each time i want to open the iphone contact. is there a certain procedure that you do to make it permanent?
Bala wrote ...
Great program! I installed it in my hTC P3300 with WM6. It works nicely; using my thumb nail I can scroll the list up or down in iPhone style! In File Explorer, I tap on iContacts to run the program. Is there a way to create an icon to launch the program?
Tanwar wrote on his mobile ...
Please, there must be a way to show the icon in programes or start menu. WHY do we need to go file explorer? SOMEBODY DO SOMETHING!!!!
duke_marquis wrote ...
I have an iPaq rx5915 with WM5 but when I download the program and then go to open it, I always get an error message that says: ...is not signed with a trusted certificate or one of its components cannot be found. Please help: duke_marquis@yahoo.com
Lance wrote ...
how to uninstall this?
SwerONER wrote on his mobile ...
everyone who keeps asking about a way to make a shortcut for the app. YOU NEED A REG. KEY EDITOR! download something like phm registry editor and remap your right softkey (if using a ppc6800 or similar model) its quite simple just a matter of deleting the file path that goes to the windows contacts and re map the path to go to icontacts make sure its in the program files folder on your device. any questions ask and ill try to ellaborate, peace
duke_marquis wrote on his mobile ...
So SwerONER, what am I doing wrong? (See previous post) duke_marquis@yahoo.com
Shab wrote ...
I picked this from the Icontact V0.4 Thread, and it worked on my TYTN 2: Rich wrote ... @sskiller - In order to make iContact open anytime you open Contacts, you need to make a registry change. Open the following Key in a registry editor: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shell\Rai\:MSCONTACTS Changed String "1" value from :MSPOUTLOOK contacts to "\Program Files\iContact.exe". Be sure to include the quotes.
SwerONER wrote on his mobile ...
@Shab thats pretty much it to get it working on any wm device, @ duke_marquis i dont know why it wouldnt open on your device i guess its not compatible for some odd reason i suggest looking for the v.04 version and trying that one out. Sorry i couldnt help you any further you've got me stumped there dude

SwerONER - please help with registry file edit... email me whitrose02@gmail.com with what files I am supposed to delete to get iContacts to run as the main contacts.

Hey SwerONER - It works for version .4! don't know what's wrong with .5
robert tighe wrote ...
SwerONER - need help with registry file edit...could you email me , I have a HTC Touch and looking to but the icontacts into my right shortcut. robtighe24@gmail.com Thanks
Bala wrote ...
I got a useful tip from windowsitpro.com site to create a shortcut for iContact. "Right click" on iContact.exe program file, select Copy then navigate to the destination (usually \Windows\Start Menu\Programs) and "right click" again, and select Paste Shortcut. It worked in my hTC P3300. I guess, this should work in any WM mobile.
Steve wrote ...
great that you can now call by tapping the phone number directly in the details screen w/out it having to open MScontacts. But versus v4, the upward scroll seems buggy, it's slower and stutters and doesn't let you flick for fast scroll regularly. kick butt app though! And please add an "add contact" button. With that, we'd have the perfect contacts ap!!! THANKS for this app! my fake windows iphone is near completion thanks to you!
javon wrote ...
this is a great app.but can someone please tell me how do i make it my permament contact app,I want to delete the the original!I have the mogul 6800.Can someone give me step by step directions on how to do this,thanks.
javon wrote ...
my email is jveezy13@hotmail.com if anyone could help send it to my email,thanks
mxquattro wrote ...
Awesome app thanks! Works perfectly on my tilt. Im with steve though, desperately needs an "Add contact" button, and also needs an "Edit" button once in a contact. Id also like to see it be able to email the contact and text msg them. It would make it more useful than just a lookup app.
tiltman wrote ...
Im with mxquattro 100%. Add Contact button, edit button and email/sms them once on their screen. That would make it the perfect contacts app. Right now, to do that I have to use something else which sucks.
BobD wrote ...
It does have the edit feature. Just tap on the name itself up top, then menu/edit. From there you can also email/sms etc. From what I can tell all it needs is an ADD button and we have a winner.
sanjay wrote on his mobile ...
cool stuff guys. though very basic but great work here.
john wrote ...
i got it to work on my ptt button, i still have my contacts button for editing
john wrote ...
0.6 is even better nice touch to include the add contact and sms and it works flawless on my ptt button
george wrote on his mobile ...
I can't get the settings to open. I put in same directory but tells me to open app first. I did but then still doesn't open. I think if I can open this i'll be able to use favorites etc. also can't put to soft key on today screen. however I love the flow of contacts n now with sms feature!!! awesome
Carlos97470 wrote ...
I'm feelin the icontacts how do I put it on my bottom righthand side of my mogul?
john wrote ...
george.... read above on how to put it where your contacts button is. I did that but i personally like to keep my contacts button and I put iContacts on my ptt button.
john wrote ...
and another thing I dont belive the settings that come with it are supposed to be openable. I might be wrong.....
Nicole wrote ...
Awesome program, but how do i get the icontacts to show up on my mogul in the lower right hand part of the screen where the default contacts are? It seems the only way i can open this program is through the zip folder...i tried extracting it but no luck. Any help is appreciated!
Carlos97470 wrote ...
what up nicole it seems like we are running into the same problem i wonder who is going to tell us? lol
madbadd wrote ...
this is how you can get the icontact into a shortcut or on your start menu... 1)GO TO YOUR FILE EXPLORER 2)GO TO MY DEVICE 3)GO TO WINDOWS FOLDER (WAIT FOR FOLDER TO OPEN) 4)LOCATE THE ICONTACT.EXE (SIMPLE WHEN SYNC TO PC AND SEARCHIN' THROUGH YOUR PC) 5)COPY THE ICONTACT.EXE 4)LOCATE AND OPEN THE START MENU FOLDER (IN THE WINDOWS FOLDER) 5)THEN LOCATE THE PROGRAMS FOLDER (IN THE START MENU FOLDER) PASTE THE ICONTACT.EXE 6) ICONTACT WILL NOW BE ACCESSIBLE TO IN YOUR PROGRAMS FOLDER AND EASIER TO SHORTCUT.
Carlos97470 wrote ...
Madbadd...thanx a bunch but i just did what you've asked me to do and its not working. does it have to have a ".exe?"
bobd wrote ...
This is awesome, the new version rocks! I cant get it to save favorites though! I can set them, hit my d pad right, and there they are. But if I exit the program and go back in they are gone. how can I fix? thanks!
douglas wrote ...
LOOK,until you create this program to pop up when i hit contacts in my phone,this program just doesnt count. pocketcm has its on icon & takes over the contacts when hit on your phone. if u wanna compete with the iphone, then take the extra step programmers.
Catch wrote ...
The program is working very good on my Mio A701. Many thanks to madbadd; Following the steps shown above by him I defined a shortcut on one of my pnone`s buttons. Once again, thanks from Romania.

Douglas, relax! Lets see some of your software up there! This author is making great software that is evolving. If you expect it perfect right out of the box, then go buy some other software. Hes doing a great job, you should encourage him. Meanwhile, try decaf and grow up a little.
john wrote ...
ok, Shab has already explained how to do it in a post above. It worked perfectly, you need a registry editor program which is free. I decided to put mine on my ptt button since I dont need it. If you would like to know how to do this let me know I check this website daily. Douglas...you can do that, there are just a few extra steps, not a big deal.
vaghotstuff wrote on his mobile ...
cooool wow,thanks works gr8 on my do od 838 pro,copied a short cut to start menue and assigned a hard weare button too,ez acsess cool featchers
douglas wrote ...
1st of all,anybody that knows anything about 3rd party programs would have pocketcm in there phone already,prior to this release(ketchup mustard)any who my point is this, contacts is something that most people goto when they wanna make a call 99% of the time, why should i have to create a icon for this,thats all im saying. i dont need this program because i already a similiar program that works 10 times better dowloaded from this very site MONTHS ago,but for the programmer just incase in the future makes a program that i can utilize,that this wont be an issue,hell "other programs" dont seem to have this issue. but on a positive note,the program looks good and looks like it wont take up to much of memory which is great!!!p.s i certainly dont need any help 4u newbies anywayz lol ive been running windows 6 since 05 on my phones
nandoabdalla wrote ...
It works in my Tytn II The steps: first put the iContac folder in 'my device' (dont put inside Program Files) download a reg editor like "PHM Registry Editor" Install CAB and Run Program Go to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shell\Rai\:MSCONTACTS Changed String "1" value from :MSPOUTLOOK contacts to "\iContact\iContact.exe". Save Click in 'Contacts' menu and WOW, WORKS! Thanks for SwerONER.. Nice app ;-)
tjmax wrote ...
Hi there. I cant get it to save favorites either. works perfectly otherwise. When I exit the program, and come back in, my favorites are gone. Any cure? thanks
solution wrote ...
For it to keep your favorites, it has to be installed on the device, not an external card. As soon as I moved it over, worked like a champ. it would be cool to have it on a card though since device space is golden.
John wrote ...
I have the att tilt and this program works great with two exceptions. When you choose a contact and click the contact name to enter the details, the menu does not show the option to add a voice tag. Instead, you see an elypsis in that space. Is there a fix for this that I am missing? Secondly, for phone numbers such as *646#, the dialing does not work. Otherwise, this is fantastic!!
FreeMobility wrote ...
Love this application. Would be perfect if you could use the Talk hard button as well though. On my HTC Touch it brings up my phone on an entry, where it should just call (I would think). Or even an option to "Click to Talk" so a quick tap could call, whereas a click-and-hold for a half/second would open up contact details. I love, love, this application. Can anyone make it "roll" upward as fast as they can downward? I sure can't.
Obiwan wrote ...
great App, lesser RAM use then pocketCM(67kb 5xxkb) and the importent infos about a contact, you do not need more ^^, The one thing what can be better, the scolling, that is al little bit hmpf,
john wrote ...
douglas, Just fyi we all arent newbies here.....just thought id let ya know :) I have been doing this for many years myself.
JoeGreen wrote ...
This might sound kind of dumb but... how do I access the Favorites list after I set them? It seems to set them because I never have to add them again, but I just don't know where the Favorites list is! lol btw I have a Tilt

hey guys - im a bit new to this. i have an htc touch. this is actually the first custom app. im attempting to change. can anyone help me out on how to have it work? i downloaded it on my phone now im going nuts trying to figure it out. thank you.

I just downloaded the software 2day and it works great except for the softkeys. I then got the registry key and followed the several directions given from threads, however unsucessful. PLEASE ANYONE HELP ME GET THIS PROGRAM AS A SHORTKEY ON WM6 FOR A PPC-6800 MOGUL FOR SPRINT
JoeGreen wrote ...
LOL! I figured it out... It's "Right" on the "D-Pad". I couldn't figure it out because I thought it could be accessed using touch only. It would be cool if Favorites was a button sort of like the "ABC" button except maybe on the top right or bottom left corner of the screen.
chris wrote on his mobile ...
hey john i just got a tilt and am tryin to make it woork can u help me in new
john wrote ...
Chris, just download the icontacts.exe to your mobile. This is not a cab file. If you have a launcher program, just point it to this file or it's shortcut. If you search this thread, you should be able to find the method to map it to your buttons. Also, there is a way to set this as your default contacts program instead of mscontacts. Need a regedit program for this...the instructions are somewhere in this thread also. I did not have any problems running it on the att tilt.
OnimasticonMan wrote ...
hahaha.. I tried this app a while back, I see the improvements..but still light years behind PocketCM.. it scrolls just the same, but U can see your contact's pix..and #'s.. and it has a built in SMS feature, so U can read your messages like an IM convo..and it AUTOMATICALLY replaces the standard contacts app..no regedits required... search this site for it.. PocketCM.. u'll thank me..
chris wrote ...
where do u try pocketcm and how do u get the iphone interface
Fred wrote ...
I researched the other contact managers and this was good for me. The CM software has too many bells and whistles. I would like to suggest a way to directly search a name besides just the alpha char. i also don't understand why I cant get to the setting file. it is in the same dir. as the exe. program,but I cannot access it to change any settings. maybe I am doing somthing wrong. I added the reg,hack and it works from my contacts softket. I have an HTC touch bought from Mobile Planet and its running on the T-Mobile system. Thanks,Fred

john wrote ...
Delete this folder :HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SERVICES\PTT then go to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shell\key you should see numbers like 40C1,40C2,etc...you need to click edit and add a new key. Name it 40C6 you need to add a string to it with the following: "\Program Files\iContact\iContact.exe" Make sure you do that exactly quotation marks and all. Add another string called name with button value button 6. It should work now, you may have to do a soft reset, i dont remember if i had to or not. Any other questions let me know.
