Create icon of your specific contact for fast dial from the desktop.
Requires: fingerterm (developer mode), sailfish-office, ImageMagick
USAGE:
* Install ImageMagick package from NielDK repo: https://openrepos.net/content/nieldk/imagemagick
* Install my app
* Create icons with face of your friends (86x86 px), .png or .jpg format and put them to:
/home/nemo/Pictures/.caller_id
You can create images manually on your PC or do it directly on the phone by following this instruction:
0. Choose image of your friend in the Gallery app.
1. Choose “Edit”.
2. Choose “Crop”.
3. Tap on image and choose “Square”.
4. Enlarge the face of your friend inside the square.
5. Tap on image and choose “Accept”.
6. Tap on image to see result.
* Your image will be saved in the same directory as an original image, just give name of your friend to this image and copy or move it to: /home/nemo/Pictures/.caller_id
* My app automatically resizes your images to 86x86px and converts them to .png.
* Open my app and choose your images (one or more)
* Choose frame (or skip)
* Insert phone number (if skip it will Insert your voice mail number)
* Insert name ( if skip it will Insert name of your filename)
* Insert color of background, only code without "#" symbol ! (if skip it will Insert light green color = #A6FF33)
* Press enter
You also can see instruction as pdf file and delete created .desktop files.
* App can see only 5 files. If you have more, just move a few of them (not relevant in this moment) to the folder “.hiden” in the: /home/nemo/Pictures/.caller_id

Still not working for me, even with the newest update. I did however use the same files as earlier. I did those files from another format by using Gimp and its export feature. I am currently traveling, but ones I have time I will try with another pictures.

Well, the app itself doens't open up at all anymore.
Just get the cover page with spinner for a while and then it just dissapears. I tried with reinstalling but it didn't help either.
Where are the pdf instructions located?

After twice reinstalling the application and rebooting the phone between the app decided to open again. Removing the icons worked.
However, no when I tried to restart the app, it again refuses to start.
yes, I have developer mode enabled
Yes, I did read the instructions and did exactly as it was said.
As a curios note, even if I tried to create only two icon and only to icons were visible without any picture, the remover offered to remove 3 icons. One only named ";"

I really don't understand what the problem in your phone. I tested this app a million times and never have problems like you. You sure you put images with faces of your friends in correct location? and it 86x86px ? Which format of imagrs you use ? ImageMagick installed?

Ok I see. Try to use .png images of your friends and report again. But not rename it from .jpg to .png, create new imagrs in .png format.

1. install latest version
2. it's hidden folder with dot at the beginning. Check "See hidden files" in your file browser.
Location of this folder: /home/nemo/Pictures/.caller_id
Just now tried, folder created immediately after installation if it not exist.
Also it can create this folder on first run of app.
