Linkboy 1.50 is unusable! It causes restarts of my phone (for better performance) again and again!

The Phone shows a message shortly before rebooting: "Dumpfile created!"
Is this file usefull for you? If yes, where is it located?

More details needed. First of all, what is the indication that LinkBoy causes the restart, and not something else? LinkBoy surely does not emit a "Dumpfile created!" message. What phone do you have? What do you do before the phone restarts?

Just booted phone (P1i R9K009 no other applications launched) crashes in the settings dialogs (no special one: sometime when changing group sometimes in options).

I'm relatively sure that it's Linkboy that crashes the phone, because after downgrade to v1.40 everything is fine.

Please try the following. Backup your current LinkBoy shortcuts from the More/Shortcuts menu. Then issue a Reset shortuts command from the same menu. You will have the default shortcuts then. Test if still there is any crash like earlier. Try setting up shortcuts similar to the previous ones. Let me know what happened.

Hmm... no improvement!

I resetted my shortcuts, but although my phone restarts.
But now I noticed, that the restarts happen during normal usage.
It's a mystery to me...

An update to LB is released today. Version 1.52 contains important bugfixes and internal tuning, for more reliable behavior and optimal performance.

Upgrade is free as usual. Enjoy the program!

There was a bug in LB 1.50 that caused crash or even reboot only when installed in a non-English language. This problem is fixed in 1.52. If you think you encountered some other problem then please provide a detailed description.

I like the app very much, but have two questions:

How can i select the original SMS-icon (think it was was possible in old LinkBoy versions) instead of the ContactPhoto of that person, when using contact-by-sms shortcut? Since both contact-options sms/call use the ContactPhoto by default they are hard to distinguish. Perhaps scanning of the mbm icon-libs could be implemented - like choosing an link-icon of the shell32.dll in Windows

Is it possible to add an more convienient way of editing the shortcut-sets in terms of moving around already created shortcuts?
Especially if you change the number of rows or columns, all well placed icons can change their position and it's hard to recreate. I know this is only made in configuring it in the beginning but an option to move the icons by dragging them around on the touchscreen, or just moving them to the next position right/left by using the arrow-keys would be a great help.

Currently there are two ways to distinguish them: use custom icon or change the shortcut caption.

Such facility is planned for some later version.
