Automatically SMS sending program...

I am searching for program for my xperia which is capable of sending sms automatically to a definend number with a defined text
this should happen in a defined time space, for example every 10 or every 75 minutes
i searched in the forum for a program like this but was not able to find one.
Anybody knows one?
would be great!
Thx a lot!

i use power sms to schedule sms sending......maybe it can do this repeated sending as well

thanks, I downloaded it, great tool but can not send many in a defined time laps.

why would you want to send so many texts to one number?

Here in Vienna we have a parking systemwhere we can send an sms and then park for 60 minutes
as I want to park longer, i want my Xperia to send for example 3 sms after every 61 minutes so I can not forget to send another sms to get another parking ticket

A little late, but i think RJV SMS Scheduler is the key... hehehe

hm, how should it work
can not find any settings which send some sms in a defined time window...

use autoSMS
http://forum.xda-developers.com/archive/index.php/t-478649.html
its not updated but works rather well

i tried it today, but the program does not work properly on my xperia, i am sorry
not a single sms is send....

post a question there. he might update it
last time i used it it worked fine

I think SK Schema will do what you need plus a lot more.

SMS timing issue

Hello,
I seem to be having an issue with the time stamps on my text messages. The ones that I send are okay, however the ones that I receive all have different times on them. For example:
If I send a text at 8:15PM and receive a reply right away, it'll show my text sent at 8:15PM, but the reply will have a back dated time... Maybe 5PM, 4PM... something like that.
Any ideas why?
Thanks!

I find this but its by no means universal. some messages I recive are an hour ahead others are not. I recived two messages at almost the same time & one of them had the wrong time. I can't wait for the new update to fix all of these little issues

I've seen this problem since my G1. It's still suffering from it, as is my Magic and my Hero.

I'm still having the same issue.
My received text messages show a time of 4 hours behind.
So if I send a text at 6:30 and receive a reply at 6:32, it shows 2:32 as the received time.
Does anyone know if there's a fix for this? I have updated to the latest (leaked) firmware, but still no luck.
Thanks!

Are you all on the same network? Might not be the phone because i've never noticed this

Was just going to ask this... What network are you on, have you set network location to automatic by carrier, if so, set it manually to the city / country you are in.

I'm on O2 and have been using the network provided values.
I've set it to manual and text someone at 12:44. The reply came in a little while after and was stamped 12:45 so no issue there it seems. Strange.

I'm now getting issues now with texts in fairly quick succession.
The time stamps can be the same i.e. 21:17 but a reply from someone will sometimes appear before my original text in thread view.
Also a reply came in to one of my texts with a time stamp before my original text. This was displayed "correctly" as before my text, but the fact its timestamped in this way can't be right.
Anyone else seen this?
It's like the phone is looking at minutes for accuracy, not seconds. Also taking the timestamp of when a text was sent from the other person's phone as the time received to my phone. Hm :/

I get this on Orange when I receive a message from the US. All my outgoing messages are listed at the bottom of the conversation, while the one received from the US are at the top.
UK based conversations are all threaded correctly.

Ok thanks.
It never used to be like this so I'm wondering after prolonged use the sms database gets a bit corrupted somehow?

For me it seems to behave like this: for outgoing (sent) messages I see the time that is set on Hero. For incoming messages, however, Hero shows the time on the network provider.
I assume there is some header in SMS message containing the time, and Hero uses that instead of using the time Hero has when the message arrives.
I started using the Network Provider time (automatic) to get rid of this.

maximum of 6 sms

hi all,
i had an amount of text i had to sent to someone in a sms.
but i couldn't send more than 6 sms in one message. if you know what i mean, sorry for my english.
now, i looked in the reg, try to edit that, but i couldn't find it.
some help? because with the Touch HD it was possible up to 10 sms in one message. maybe more.
thnx in advance

so still no answers?

its been 4 hours, at least give people a chance

The longest sms I have ever written was 3 SMS long, so I can't help you with that. But it seems that phones have a limit here, some can't connect more then 3, other can connect up to 10. Guess you have found one of the limitations on the HD2.

i dont write it, i copy and paste text, would have no thumbs left i guess if i would type the whole thing
but there is no reg fix for it? that is what i want. i cant work like this.

6 SMS are not SMS anymore
it's a mail
Never seen this but i Haven't done a so long SMS

Ya'll dont understand
My father cant recieve email at this phone.
But I can, so i recieve his mail, as a mail, and i forward it as a text message.
Really, it works
Well it used to work with TOUCH HD, but it wont with the HD2.

we understand you but nobody can answer your question because nobody seems to write such a long sms.
I can only say that I think it was the SE K700i could only connect up to 3 sms.

No solution for messages > 6 SMSs, but now that we know what you actually want it for, have you tried looking for a better solution, that seems a really backwards things to be doing all the time.
There are loads of email to sms gateways around, many free. HAve you tried one of those? Small selection: http://www.cellular.co.za/email_to_sms_gateways.htm

thnx for the solution, but the selection you gave, is just forwarding the subject.
and what i need is, the whole message to be send.
but i guess i have send more than one long message, two messages to get the job done.
too bad i could't find anything in the reg tho.
thnx anyway.

Well it looks like you've found out that you'll just need to split the email up and send 2 x 6 sms messages.
Although your topic did put a smile on my face. sms = Short Messaging Service... I somehow don't think it applies anymore...

has anyone found a solution to this limitation yet?
I'd like to write more than 6 sms in a row.

try a MMS? Probably cheaper as well.

maybe you should ask htc support

I would be interested in these feature to!
With my N95 I have reached 9 SMS in one. It would be great to achive that in HD2. If we can tweak the max. recipient for SMS why cant we tweak the max. SMS chain?
Somebody?

i thought he meant to send the same sms to more than 6 people, it is a stupidly low amount you can send to people

?!?!?
yeah this is bad problem i've noticed too
because i want to send more sms to my girlfriend but htc say NO
tc too bad

Don't let the sms limitation bother you. I suspect you rarely write/copy paste such long message so. So for that once in a lifetime sms text message (what the hell are you sending) send it in 2 pieces.

i meant, that there is a limitation of max 6 SMS in a row. i wanna know if this limitation can be set higher for ex. 10 SMS. i didn't know that there is a limitation to the max. of recipients. didn't anyone find a solution to both limitations yet?

Definately agree

[Q] texting issue + fav't list issue

Hi everyone,
I just got my wildfire and I've already experienced a bit of an issue with it. I tried texting my friend today with the phone and i noticed that all the messages i send is gathered together on one end while her text messages are grouped together on the other end. I was wondering if there's a way to resolve this; I can't say I enjoy scrolling up and down endlessly trying to read my texts and try to respond to it properly.
the second issue is the fav't list. I tried setting my fav't list with the contacts on my phone that's not on fb or any other social network and it doesn't seem to work at all.
thanks for the help.
p.s. I'm not new to the forums, I started out being apart of this community as a sony ericsson x1 user, now I'm using the wildfire. It's great to be here, I'm very excited and hope to continue to help make some helpful and constructive contributions to the forums.

I guess I should explain this more clearly just to make sure.
here's what happens when I text
It seems to appear as:
Text 1 to me
Text 2 to me
Text 3 to me
Text 1 from me
Text 2 from me
Text 3 from me
I would like this showing as:
Text 1 from me
Text 1 to me
Text 2 from me
Text 2 to me
Text 3 from me
Text 3 to me
Does that make sense and is this possible?
Thanks

Strange, in my sms app it shows up just as you would want.. and i didn't change any of the settings
Are you sure that your time settings are right? Because the ordening of the smses happens by the timestamp of a given sms, and it relays on the time of the phone that sends the sms. So if your friends phone sends an sms at, lets say, 9h, but its in fact 10h at your phone, your phone will still classify the sms "receved at nine o clock". In the sms app it will be classified just like that, so in this way it is not unlikely to think that all your smses (or those of your friend) will be clustered tougether because of a systematic time stamp mistake in one of the phones.
Hmm, not sure I'm making myself very clear but, just check your time settings ;-)
ErwinP

Thanks guys for your helpful suggestions.
Erwin P: I think it is the time stamp problem. luckily after some research and some help from a friend I was able to get a hold of a program call sms time fix. it seems to have solve some of the problems for now; atlease my phone is recieving messages like the way that i want them to, although it is still sending it somewhat delayed here and there.
I was wondering though...is this the problem of the phone, or the problem with my service provider?

[Q] Message delivery report

Hiya, I'm using Android FroyoSuperRam 1.5 on SD and i have a weird problem!
The problem happens occur with only with 1 person let's call her "A".
So i've thick on the option to receive a delivery reports when i send my text messages to people.
It works very well with everyone except with "A". It seems like "A" doesn't receive my text message on time.. because my delivery report comes always very late..
I asked "A" if other people have the same problem as i do but "A" said no one else has that problem. "A" receives text messages from others good on time (like instantly..)
"A" is the only person i have trouble with sending text messages.. "A" just receives them always very late or maybe the Delivery thing is buggy.. but i don't think there is a bug because i receive one instantly from everyone else.
I Also thought that her phone was just doing weird but she receives them on time from other people..
We have the same providers..
Ow yea sometimes when i send 2 text messages in a row to "A" they arrives in the wrong order :s.. like the 2nd one comes first and then the 1st one comes 2nd.. :s.
i really have no clue what the problem could be.. maybe SuperRam Froyo 1.5 can't handle some things? but that would be weird when it works perfect when sending text messages to other people..
Anyone knows a solution for this?
ps: i tried Handcent sms and go sms aswell but no solution came out of them.
Thanks for help!

And what about the messages from "A" to you? Did they arrive fast and in the right order or it is the same issue as with your messages?
