[INFO] IVCM Version 2.0 Now Available
Normally I wouldn’t just post a simple update like this, but Interactive Voice Call Master by Mobisophy is one of the several apps that I just couldn’t live without on my N80IE. Version 2.0 has brought on some great updates and some much-needed changes so I wanted to make a quick post about it. For those who have not tried it, IVCM is the most feature-rich call management utility currently available for S60 3rd devices. I am constantly switching between IVCM and Advanced Call Manager by Webgate. Each app has a variety of features that set it part from the other and both are well worth looking into. The basic idea of a call manager though, is to handle your incoming calls in accordance with lists, time-schedules, etc. To better explain, here is one example of how I use IVCM on a daily basis:
I use the automatic scheduling feature within IVCM. So from 7am - 10:59pm each day, IVCM is set to “not handle” (accept all) calls. Then every night from 11pm - 6:59am, IVCM will only allow incoming calls from a number on my “white list” (family, close friends, etc). If I receive a call from any mobile number in my contact list that isn’t in my white list, the call is rejected and IVCM automatically sends them an SMS from a template that I created. Any call from a number that isn’t on either of those lists will be auto-muted by IVCM and will go to voicemail. Pretty cool!
I’m not sure if there is a complete change log floating around somewhere for IVCM version 2.0, but here are some of the more important changes that I’ve noticed since I upgraded from 1.5x:
RAM Consumption - Whereas the old version of IVCM chewed on about 1.2MB of my precious RAM, IVCM nibbles on a much more reasonable 205Kb.
Graphics - My high-resolution display absolutely despises bitmap icons and I’m glad that Mobisophy figured that out! IVCM now uses only SVG graphics within the UI.
No-Beep Recording & Adjustable Playback Volume - IVCM now supports no-beep call recording and no-beep voice message recording. You can also adjust playback volume from within the app rather than having to rely on the volume setting within your active profile.
I realize that this is not a full review but I do recommend that you check this app out and take advantage of IVCM’s 7-day/30-call free trial. To be perfectly honest, there are just too many features in IVCM for me to take the time to review right now. If there is interest of course, I’ll try to get a full review up next week.

i would really appreciate it if you write a full review for this application! plus could you compare this application with Mobisophy's "PhonePilot" as i was not able to find any difference between those 2 products by the same author!

Thanks for you comment and I'm sure that many people share your confusion. Perhaps when I have more time I can post a review as you suggest but I can tell you fairly quickly what the main difference is.
Unlike Phonepilot, IVCM supports IVR (Interactive Voice Response) functionality. This basically allows you to create complex interactive scenarios for incoming callers where they can respond to your instructions with key presses that IVCM will recognize and respond to. Here's an example:
Incoming call is answered by IVCM. Your message says: "I am unavailable right now. Please press 1 to leave me a message, or press two to be transferred to my office."
Then in IVCM you can configure this scenario so that if the caller presses 1, IVCM will play another message that you record ("Please leave a message after the beep.") and if the caller presses 2, IVCM will transfer the call to your office number that you input in the profile configuration.
Hope that helps!

Now, that's my experience, has it worked for you? I also posted on mobisophy's web site, but haven't gotten a response yet.
I was testing using my E61, latest firmware, caller using a S40 nokia.
Cheers,
Rob
PS: the log captures the fact that someone calls, and is waiting for them to hit a key. So I know that my IVR scenario is correct.

Are the problematic calls coming from a mobile? You might try calling your device yourself from a landline and testing. Perhaps it's a DTMF issue...

but now i have a querry (or bug) in IVCM, there is an option in Options>IVR Options , "Mute ringer before call", what i understand from that is, ICVM wont let the ringer ring and directly will handle it itself, n i really would like to set it that way, but on my N73, when i go to select that option, it shows me "set the ICVM volume", which is the next option on the page, so i cant select the "mute ringer before call" option!
is that bug specific to my phone or is it something present in IVCM?
ohh and 1 more thing, i have tried using the scheduling, i had created 2 profiles "Day" and "Night", ICVM let me set the day profile from 7am to 11pm, but when i tried setting the night profile from 11:01pm to 6:59am, it game me error saying something like "profile ending time should be after the profile start time" isnt is absurd?

In terms of your other question, it is odd that Mobisophy did this but to set a "Night" profile from 11pm to 7am you actually must create two schedule events...
Night: 11:00pm - 11:59pm
Night: 12:00am - 7:00am
With IVCM, you cannot create one schedule event that spans over two days.

My personal favorite option is Ultimate Voice Recorder. It's the only solution I've tried that has worked very consistently for me. Remember to notify any callers anytime you're recording calls! :)
