reposting this because the original thread was truncated,
this program will send contact mobile number info thru SMS.
i will be releasing it soon.
Are you trying to say that this can send a vcard (more or less standard way of putting contacts-info in one file, can be read by ie. Nokia phones) via sms just like it allready works with BT?
Should be a Contacts-add-on instead of an extra piece of software.
@edsub
there is already a plugin that can do that but the problem is, its not compatible sending vcard to some of the phones (nokia,moto..etc)

my application will send the mobile number info with some short note using SMS so the nokia phones or any other type of phone that can send/recieve sms can have it. Ive got Tired of cut&pasting contact info and sending it.
No offense, but next to the fact I think your app really is very useful (for me too!!) I still think it should be a plugin for the contacts app. Can you make the app to behave like a plugin (or am I asking something weird now)?

Wow! This is great Pare!
In relation to this, shall we also expect that thru this app we too can receive Vcards from Nokias? The reason why I'm asking this is because my PPC device can't seem to receive Business Cards from Nokia phones.
My sincerest thanks!
hi guys
i found a app that sens vcards on the net but i cant remember where it was on one of the free ware sites.

Hello,
I would like to use SMS in a new application using XDA. I want my application can read sms in inbox.
Do you know how I could see example of source code using SMS API? Or do you have such example to help me?
I got example to send sms but cannot get sample how to read the sms.
FYI, i am writing program using eVB.
Thanks a lot
You should take a look at PocketPC Network Programming by Steve Makofsky or simply try
http://groups.google.com/groups?q=pocketpc+sms+api&start=0&hl=de&ie=UTF-8&
and

SMS API is not easy.
Yup, it's not very easy, you need to learn about POOM...
I advise you to look into VB .net, it's been made a hell of a lot easier.
I still do it the Medieval way though! Win32 C++ all the way :shock:

I did include some C code on sending/reading SMS in this post
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=10761&highlight=
You are asking about reading messages in the Inbox that is when poom as mentioned by vijay555 comes into play.
I don't know anything about poom, but I have read incoming SMS by making my read thread take control of incoming SMS. This means that the message never goes into the inbox.
vangelderp: interesting code, not seen it before on the board. A very good way to do it. It doesn't need to be installed before pocket outlook etc does it? I don't imagine it does. Good stuff!
V
No it does not need to be installed before PPC Inbox (Outlook), what seems to happen is when a SMS message comes in the Inbox fires up. From that point on my code won't get a handle to SMSRead.
So what you need to do is do a warm reset and then start your user program (including my code sample) before any new incoming SMS messages and then it will get the SMSRead handle first. This then blocks Inbox getting a handle which I am sure it raises a error message on if you then try to go into inbox.
vangelderp: yup, that's what I thought. I never used that technique because of that, I stuck with POOM. But your createevent and thread work is very helpful.

SmsReadMessage of SMS.API
Thanks for your all comments.
Do you know how to use SmsReadMessage of SMS.API ?
This function is used to Reads a previously received SMS message. I really hope somebody else out there can help me how to use that function
Regards
You use SmsReadMessage like I do in the code attachment I have mentioned.
This function does not read a SMS message that has already been received by the normal PPC Inbox program. As said for that you need to use POOM.
SmsReadMessage for for your code to get a SMS Read Handle and then wait for the event (The Message) to occur and then use the SmsReadMessage function.
Exactly as I have done in my code snippit.
Hi!
I'm asking here if there is around a simple but valid flash sms sender, with GUI and access of outlook's phonebook... possibly with anonymous sender...
Searched a lot on the internet but found too crappy softwares...
cheers, Moccij
Hi MocciJ,
Have you tried Vijay555's tool for this type of sms? I know it's capable, but I'm unsure about the gui & contact integration part you want. You can find it @ www.vijay555.com
Regards, M
Already seen it..
But I'm looking to something qith contacts and some sort of GUI, maybe only for typing in the mex, the phone number from the contacts, and a send button..
Another app I've seen includes this minimal GUI, but no contacts and no copy and paste option..
Maybe I'm asking too much if I want it to integrate with outlook? Is it possible?
Many thanks, MocciJ
I'm sure it can be done, this integration with outlook. TomTom has it's added its 'contact navigation' option & Richard Owens the 'file as first last' option.
The question will be who's going to do it. Try to contact Vijay maybe he can do it for you, although I know he got a lot of stuff on his head lately.
M
Will contact him
Flashy messages rulez!! :lol:
MocciJ
Guys, Class 0 requires sending through a custom app, it's not a simple switch you check within outlook. As such, an Outlook plugin can grab the details of the contact, perhaps, but will then have to jump into its own GUI to do the text message creation and sending etc.
It's feasible, but just a pain in the backside to do GUIs right now...
However, I'm thinking about doing an app that will hopefully integrate such features at some point after a couple of more urgent things first...
V
Vijay,
By no means I'm pushing or rushing you to create this app. The general idea you sketch is just what I had in mind as the solution.
off topic: I see you moved to a new place :-( Hope everything is still ok with the family, especially with Alexander.
Have to get the kids to school & write you laterrrr,
M
an interface for sending class 0 sms would be very cool. Ive made up a basic interface that uses vijays program but its pretty crappy, just two boxs for text and the phone number and a send button :lol: thats about as far as my vb skills go!
Well, I haven't VB skills at all :wink:
Ryanmt:
I've tried carty flash messenger, which has the same GUI as your app, but no paste and phonebook if the app u compiled has cut and paste options at least, then we're at a good point (since u can copy the number from the phonebook and paste into the program ) can u post the app here?
Cheers, MocciJ
just hunting on the net to find some info on accessing contacts
who'd ahve thought they would make it so hard to add a paste option :S
if anybody could give me some pointers ide be willing to have a go at making it all work. But as it stands i could write it easily in java but dont understand the tutorials for C#
glad to see that there are upgrades... flashy sms are pretty cool... Must thank Ryanmt..
Best regards, MocciJ
Have you tried Jgui A.SMS ? It can send class0 smses.
hmm, I wanted a some more simplier app, just as Ryanmt thought.. But in any case I'll try it :wink:
MocciJ
I saw one in the msdn site
you can change in the provider options to change betweent classes
the example there sends in class 0

i tried this app on my mini and it runs, when sending sms as normal it says message sent but nothing happnes. Hope somebody can rewrite the code for 2003os
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=96112&package_id=102784&release_id=201102
It's an EVB app Seen it before, but EVB put me off the idea.
V
I haven't tried this small app. What is it supposed to do? If you could let me know I will see if I can knock out a version for the 2003os for you.
it can let you send sms using one hand operation. send sms as normal sms, send class 0 sms, and resend last 25 failed sms'
Hi,
I'm searching for a piece of free or paid software, which can make some of my SMS private, but still will be fully integrated into WM Outlook. It should work with threaded SMS model, known from WM6.1 and should be able to suppress new SMS notifications for selected contacts. Also ability of importing SMS threads from common inbox will be great.
Do you know about anything that can help me and also others with the same problem? Please, tell us ,-)
Thanks in advance for replies
there is a program called Ez Secret SMS by CelSoft that has privacy features for sms... like password protect sms inbox, etc.. i think it's commercial though... search around and it's on the net for free as with anything else.
thanks for reply,
EZ Secret SMS is not the thing i'm looking for.
Its integration into pocket outlook is - none. It uses separate "mailbox", program itself acts like calculator for users that don't know about it. It cannot handle threaded sms and you cannot use strong passwords, just numbers (!). There's no information about strength of internal database encryption mechanisms. It's a kind of "security through obscurity", not a real security product...
but again, thanks at least for an idea ,-)
