SMS Password - Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General

Alright so everyone can prob agree... We have all these sweet ass phones that we mod ourselves to give it our own touch. Well don't you hate it when people go to see your phone and they're all like, "Hey let me see that, it looks sweet!!" blah blah blah... then they go and look in your text messages. Kinda annoying when I let someone play with my device and they try to get into my personal business.
Well basically what I am asking with all the talent out there... Is there a simple program that someone(s) would be willing to try to create that makes our SMS passcoded. Basically anytime you want to go into your messaging folder that includes your inbox, sent, outbox, drafts... that they need to enter in a simple 4 digit passcode. I bet I'm not the only one that would like this program....
Thanks in advance!

i would love to have something like this...not just for sms but for all programs. i remember my first cheap phone (motorola) they have this feature to block/allow apps and be passcoded. it would be great to have something like this....just a question as if its a popular request i guess....

great idea!

i love this motorola function, i'll love to see an application to do this on our phone.

I have been wanting this since I pulled my Tild out of the box. Couldn't find it so I eventually bought this;
http://imate-smartphone.handster.com/product.php?id=521
It's okay, but as I said in another thread it can be a little *clunky* to use. And I know I paid WAY TOO much for something that should eb relatively simple.

yea...ive been wanting a program like that for a whileee!! i know somebody out there can develop a nice simple program that ask for a password for certain app...

Been trying this out for a while today... works pretty good... Just kinda plain and boring looking though. So if anyone is still up to the challenge to make something very similar but maybe a little more modern looking.

Hey all,
I agree with the fact that this type of software could be in high demand. I am not a developer myself, but I did design a Wisbar theme called VistaMobile, so I would definitely be willing to skin the program if someone could do the coding. I really love this whole PPC scene (started with an MPx200 Smartphone about 3 years ago, now using an HTC Uni), and I really want to give back and be a part of something more than the VistaMobile theme I had created.
I should also be able to host the file with a dedicated page on my protogenLabs site, if any developers are out there and wishing to team up.
That might just be wishful thinking, but regardless, it would be great have a stylish version of this type of program. More and more people in North America are finally getting used to Windows Mobile being somewhat mainstream, so I think it's a good market ready to flourish!
Sorry if I went on a bit of a tangent, but I'm all for a program that would do this sort of thing.
PM or contact me from my protogenLabs page if you are a dev interested in partnering up with a designer for ANY projects really...
Thanks!

it's called Ez Secret SMS and works great but on VGA devices the password keypad is unusable
We need a simple software to ask for a password when entering messaging. That's it, no funky lists and fluffy software. May the Force(of developers) be with us

glad to see everyone agrees with me, its nice to think that this is something that everyone would enjoy as much as me. So developers check this out! If your a developer or someone that think you might be able to take this on... leave some feedback on here instead of just reading then leaving... again thanks everyone, we'll be waiting!

yea i need something like dat badly!!!
ILL Try to develop something...

There's to be no talk of WAREZ on this site.
You should try reading the rules
11. Don't get us all in trouble
Don't post copyrighted materials or do other things that will obviously lead to legal trouble. If you wouldn't do it on your own homepage, you probably don't want to do it here either. This does in no way mean we agree with everything Hollywood, the record companies and the software piracy lobby try to impose on us, it simply means you cannot break any laws here since otherwise we'll end up dealing with your legal hassle. Please use common sense: respect the forum, its users, and those that write great code.

Has anyone made a free program for this yet?

i don't think so... i think a simple password prompt for accessing SMS/Email messages would be cool.. problem is, all the software currently out there is bloat and full of extra stuff that most of us don't need.
this can probably be done with mortscript but again, it requires additional installed programs..
i'm still looking around, but there isn't much in terms of what we're looking for.
now if we could only get some interested coders in this thread to whip something up

eye on privacy is a good one... theres alot of other stuff like a "safe sms" inbox that stores txts you don't want other people to see when you enter a 2ndary password. It can also lock dialing functions, call history, contacts, calender, tasks, and notes.
Then it gets into some really paranoid features that no one will ever use unless you're 007.
The pin screen that comes up when you go to your inbox is very finger friendly but the one that comes up when you go to the program to set the password and change settings is not.

I would strongly recomend that you watch how you post. This post of yours seems oddly like advertisement. I took a look at your only other post as of this date and it looked like a simple question. Just a warning, watch what you post. There is nothing wrong with mentioning a pay product if it is what someone is looking for; however, you started this thread when no one asked and are linking to a pay product.
Read the forum rules. Advertisement, spam etc.. Can result in a ban from this site from a moderator.
Take care.
Fun Contact
I tried Fun Contact and it is ok but loads very slow and I didnt like the keyboard feature. IMO - I much prefer icontact as it is quick and simply smooth!

Opinions and ideas on the upcoming beta!

Okay,
I have this problem where I am never pleased with anything I do, so I keep trying to improve it and improve it even further. The time has come.
I have been coding the new features for my website (www.touch-innovation.com) and here is the list I have thought of and has users suggest via email:
- Live submit (Submit directly onto the site... instantly. With lots of security though )
- Screenshots on category lists
- Download names instead of random hash.
- Add comments to news sections
- And lots of admin panel updates which you don't need to know about
Another thing is, what do you think of the design. Does it need a re-design? Does it need to be minimilsed or what not?
Help me out come on, throw me some ideas!
<3
dude, this sounds great
all of those features sound like excellent additions. good work on the coding
no, the site looks fine the way it is
Why do you want to change that site it's clear easy to use and looks cool
Because people have complained about the fixed backgrounds on the left and right. I was thinking of making them a bit thinner to make more room for content and shiz.
Thanks for your compliments, so you don't have any other feature requests? And the Live sumbmission idea, would anyone use it?
Thanks again
Anyone with a decent knowledge of php drop me a line. I'm having problems editing filenames on the fly (sounds easier than it is trust me, complex scenario).
The one and only thing I'd like to see changed? Not use javascript when clicking on applications to take you to their detail page. I get annoyed when I can't open it in another tab
It only uses javascript for the onhover effect and to make the whole td a link. If you want to open it in the new tab, just right click on the name (which is a hard link, for people without javacript).
It's been like this since first release, I did it just incase of no javascript

I guess I need more specifics, but a nice little loop with the function rename() should do the trick. I am sure you have looked at some resources, but the php.net site is great, here is rename with tons of good examples, some of which I have used in the past:
http://us.php.net/manual/en/function.rename.php
Hope this helps, FYI the site looks great!
Gudy
Thanks, rename isn't on the fly though. I'd have to rename it, then let the user download it... wait till the user has downloaded it, and then rename it back. And what hapens if someone else trys to download it in the proccess of this, they'll get a 404 for the file. I'd have to copy to a new location and do it that way. No point, I need on the fly not permanent. Normally I would use the rename function but it's not helpfull in this sutation.
I just need to play with the headers for a while and get them working .
Thanks for your help though
And thanks for the compliments.

hell yeah, I know that feeling...I´m never pleased with my designs as well
And no, it doesnt need a major refresh yet but try to make the background a bit lighter so the whole site gets a bit more contrast. Just lighten up the background by 10-20% or so and show us what it would look like
And tell me if I´m wrong...but "Touch friendly programs for the windows mobile" sounds extremly strange, what about leaving the "the" out ?

Martin

I didn't understand what you needed, and I think now I do, you want to change the name as someone is downloading a file correct? If so, check this sample out, modify the header section as needed, ie this line:
header("Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=\"$file\"");
you could do any type of processing on the name you need, then just pass the string like above. Here is the link to the rest:
http://apptools.com/phptools/force-download.php
Hope this helps
m.schmidler:
Thanks, I'll try that now. And the "The" bit... Well it makes it sound like it's the only decent phone - aka unlike iphone . Its pronounced th-eee not th-u. So it sounds slightly different.
Get what I mean?
mjg7876:
I've been looking into the disposition header for a while, but the way I currrently download files is quite simple but to interlock these 2 things togeather is complex. Especially considering I will need to do checking, exploding (for the file extension) and redirecting if it's not hosted on the server. I make things too complicated lol.
Thanks for your help guys btw
Anyone else?
Is it me or does the logo from this site in this post look very similar to yours?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=441647
Great Site
I love your Site. In my opinion : it doesn't need any re-design.
But i do have one suggestion : it would great to have your tables with worting features.... One could just click on the title of one column and it would be sorted.... Understand what i mean ?
Thank for your work.
Thanks for your kind words
And btw, you can already sort them (programs list only atm). Simply click on the title, download, views, etc. and it will resort.
Try it
BTW: That logo looks like a skeleton version of mine :/. There's everthing thats on mine, just minimilised! What's going on? :/
ATM work is up to my eyes, so I've had to slow down on the development. It's not something I can rush due to security.
Any more suggestions I will be more than greatful

Send To: Phone

I know I didn't invent the wheel or anything but I always wanted a way to send the .cab files I find here straight to my phone and couldn't find a way so I created the site: http://sendtophone.info
basically it gives you a badge for people to click, it sends the link to the cab to their phone over txt. I also made a firefox extension so you can click on any link anywhere and send it to your phone. full details are on the site including a code generator for the lazy among us.
Just thought I'd give back a little, you guys are welcome to use it. You have given me countless awesome apps and top notch advice.
Example:
i wont be eager to use this or give my phone no/details online but maybe others might find this useful!
I just download the file and email it to my phone. Why get another party involved?
i guess it's another way to be able to dl from your phone, but if i'm on a computer, i just send an IM with the link to my mobile aim name, which sends a text to my phone.
edit: actually, how does this work? do you get charged for sending the text from you site? and i'm assuming you can send any links...
i think he's using some sorta script from their website (ie.att.com)
I wish this site supported Rogers....wink wink...nudge nudge
but for now i use msn ...which stopped recently...gotta get that working again....
Nice idea have added it here : http://www.1800pocketpc.com/2009/07/13/send-to-phone-a-site-to-send-links-to-your-ppc-via-sms.html
Glad some find it useful. Just to let you know we do not store ANY info. we have no logs, no database, nothing. the only info that COULD be saved is your phone number & carrier can be saved in a cookie on YOUR computer. hope that makes people feel better. I wrote the script with privacy in mind for people like xda users.
If your carrier isn't listed go to our about page to send us a message.
RE:
Bundo: I also downloaded and emailed, but its 2009! "they" should have this worked out by now. and most importantly I'm lazy and impatient.
downloading, watching emails send, waiting to receive, downloading again all suck. I love it every time I use it.
Too much security !!
I like this a lot, but find it a slow drag to have to type the two words! Since you can select to create a cookie, can you skip the security if cookies is checked?
By no means an expert, so this may be a dumb question.
well with bots the way they are no, i can't remove the captcha. maybe if I think of some other way. but no promises

tell me by rogers do u mean rogers wireless in canada?
I'm pretty proficient in php. Does this just send an email to [email protected] (ex [email protected])?
So you only send the link... not the actual file?
Pretty cool stuff. If it is php it doesn't need much to run so it should be pretty safe. I'm just wondering if it comes across as a message or an email. Would be cool to just send the whole file, but it would be a lot more complicated and require uploading files (which can get bad).
yeah its just simple php. it sends the link as a txt message. i wish i could send the actualfile! it works pretty well, i use the firefox addon i made so it works on every link everywhere

it would work on any carrier that allows [email protected] message conversions. He just has to know the ending so he can add it to the drop down box.

Well, what if the file is later pulled from the internet, or you can't find it again? If you first download it to your computer, then you have a permanent backup in case of phone failure or loss, as well as an easy way to send it to friends.
very cool ...good job!
Incredibly useful....See what searching does?

Searching Friends problem on Facebook by using my HD2

hey guys,
I'm trying to add some new friends from Facebook by my HD2, but I can't search any new friends!! ;(
However, it works on IPhone but why not windows phone.
Anyone know about these?
Let me know Please
Thank u in advance
anyone can help??
You've not given us enough information to help you.
How are you trying to add friends? How do you expect it to work, and in what way does it not?
Incidentally, silly comments like "it works on my iPhone" will get you nothing other than silly comments like "use your iPhone then".

Thanks John,
Well, i go to "Friends" Tag, and click "Search" then i input the person's name which i'm trying to search, however, there is no other results come out apart from the person which i have added.
But my friend show me on his IPhone, once he input the name and then click search, there are numbers of results come out even he didn't add.
Did i make it a bit clear now??
Very Sorry if i confuse you guys, because English is not my first language
I have had this problem before on my TP2, it will search for people in my friends but not people I do not know.
Never managed to get to the bottom of why this happens, Sorry.
As far as I'm aware, the search function is for searching within your friends, not for searching for new friends. I don't think you can do that with the application.
The application is not meant to be a replacement for the facebook website, but rather a sort of middleware app that gets information from the site for you, and allows you to do some minor updates.
You'll still need to use the main site to do lots of things.
If it helps, you can use http://m.facebook.com/ on the phone to get the mobile version, which is a lot lighter than the full version and doesn't use any ajax or flash (which would slow the browser down considerably!)
Hope this helps

APP request - grol testing software for windows mobile

Hello everyone. I am a second year electronics student and am now working for my General Radiotelephone Operator License (GROL). I am looking at having to memorize the answers to just under 700 questions. Its rather tough lol. The reason I am here is simple. I have searched and searched and have not found any software for my touch pro that will help me study for this test. I don't know how to write programs but I know that many of you out there do a phenomenal job. I am looking for someone that would write a program for me that would quiz me on all the questions for the GROL. In fact I believe that if one where interested in making a few dollars he or she could go all out and make a program that creates a full exam from the test question pool, then watches which ones the user gets wrong and makes sure to ask them more often. It would also be cool if a pop up window came up explaining the proper answer. I also think it would be nice to have a screen at the end showing results. I know at first this seams daunting but I do have software that came with my book that is close to this and could send you a copy. Also, the entire question pool is listed on the fcc website. It wont let me post the link here but if you contact me by email i can find it for you.
The GROL only requires sections 1 and 3. The only other program similar was marked at $40.00 and for the pc. Nothing has been found for the PPC where it makes the most sense. During random downtimes a person can do a few random questions here and there. I believe that if made to look nice with a nice touch style interface someone could post this to windows marketplace and sell it for $20.00 easily and make some nice cash on it. I would learn to program and do it myself if it weren't for the fact that I am in class now and need it ASAP.
Thanks in advance for all that entertain the thought of taking this on

It's not exactly what you said, but maybe you can use SuperMemo UX & SuperMemo Mobile. It's free software, but you will need to build your own course.

I know this is an older post. And I knkw what you mean, and are talking about. I am changing career fields into Avionics, and a classmate has an app for his (cry)Phone. But in the Google Play Store, they have some, but they are expensive for what it is ($19.99 and $12.99). I can't find anything except crApple. Absolutely no Android. I can't even find anything where someone ported the CD that is in the book over to Android and other platforms. I have coppied the files from the CD to a folder on my computer called "GROL." So I didn't have to have the CD in my computer the whole time. I'm going to graduate at the end of this month, and I only have Element 1 done. Partly its my own fault for waiting until now. But either way, I'll have 3 & 8 done. But it would be nice if I could take the studying with me when I have life going on and not by my computer. Lol
Android surpassed crApple, and yet we still get kicked to the curb.
