SMS Fun Tool

Hi everybody. When I write SMS with my girlfriend I sometimes mess with the text. For example I write the text down on a paper and writh it backwards like:
Hi sweetheart. I just wanted to say that I stay here one more day. I love you --->
ouy evol I. yad erom eno ereh yats I taht yas ot detnaw tsuj I. traehteews ih.
So that she has to read it from the end.
Unfortunatly I am not a programmer. Could anybody write a tool that can mirro an sms text please. Then it would be easier. No need of paper anylonger.
And if anybody else has more funny ideas it could end up in a fun sms tool.
Thanks alot.

oh yeah great fun. I suggest you ask your girlfriend to look at the phone facing a mirror and read the text from the mirror image. Just joking no offince There are serious issues which need to be resolved with XDA2 SMS before we can make fun out of it.

Kufi, have you really thinked on what you said ? did you try the mirror ? was the same effect ?
Alex, if i have some time, i'll write a simple app to do it in the next days and post it here

Hey Hbatista! Sounds great!
Thank you very much!
@ kufi if you turn your display off you get a mirror
Alex

loooool guys, you are wonderful! I tried the mirror but what I saw was the ugly me..

here's your tool with source code
Glad that good humour still persists!
Here's your app. I'm including source code and a ARM cab to do the installation. You should copy the cab and dat file to your device and proceed to installation.
Hope it helps
regards!

talking about good humor..
I included in the about box a small credit to Kuffi!

Hi hbatista! Thank you very much for your cool tool.
A copy function would be cool though. Because then I could copy any text into a sms or mms using the normal tools which also stire the send messages.
And... Nice Mirror Pic Man!!
Thanks.
Alex

right away!
no problem!
here's the new version with a copy/paste menu!

Thanks Man.
Really nice one.
Alex
Now I get an error:
MirrorSms.exe
MissingMethodException
Application::Run+0xf
frmSendMirrorSms:Main+0xa
Is anything else exept the files you attached needed to run it properly?
Alex

sorry!
yep.. I only tested it on emulator, and I don't know why the opennetcf is not being correctly installed...
this new version is working...

Now another funny thing. Does anybody remeber these secred languages form childhood? We were about 5 children and we had such a language training it for weeks. At the end we were really fluent and nobody could understand us. My sister and I still use this language for fun every now and then.
Now we could transfair this to SMS.
For example: Iluvi aluvam coluvomiluving laluvateluver.
which means: I a m co mi ng la te r
I am coming later.
The rule is: After each vowel you put luv and then repeat the vowel if there are more vowels in a row like ea you take all of them and put luv there like ealuvea.
Do you like my suggestion?
Any other ideas?
Alex

lol
well, and what about random ? :lol:
the source code is there, so any other posters can change it. now i have to come back to my vehicle tracking system

Thanks anyway.
Very nice tool

phonenumber?
Do you need to type the phone number in by hand? I don't know any phonenumber nowadays ...
Copy/paste doesn't seem to work in that field

contacts integration only available at commercial release
(read this post title) :lol:
I'm just kidding.
Well, integration with contacts will be a little more difficult. There is no library to do it in the language i used.
Even the clipboard integration was more difficult than sending the sms (can u imagine ?), because compact framework does not support CE clipboard.
I'm not fluent in eC++, but maybe other posters can do it...
Although, if i have some time i will do it...

Hello hbatista,
I'm trying to find a simple programming language to program small nice functions for my Qtec. can you suggest an affordable language ?
thanks

See OpenNetCF
Hi Abalgir
Right now, the best choice would be eC++ (embedded visual c), but for someone initiating, it could be complicated. You can also choose embedded visual basic (eVB).
Although, Microsoft operating systems are migrating to "Managed code" and .net technologies. This means that you should start thinking on using .net to program the devices. In .net you can choose your favorite language, like c# or vb.net, but i prefer c#.
With .net compact framework, you can do a lot of things, but some core fiunctionalities are still not available, but you can use something like OpenNetCF (see www.opennetcf.org) to do core things like sendsms, etc
hope it helps

XDAIIi and Camera using!

Hello,
i have the XDAIIi and i have this issue.
When i start the camera, each time i start to take pictures it creates a new Folder for the pictures , and its becoming a bit to annoying to sit down an open each folder to find the picture i want .
My question is...is there any kind of proggy or something to put all pic's in the same directory ???
Thanx

I did see a hack or program that would put all the pictures in a single folder after you take then but it did still leave the "date" folder and you would then need to delete them
John

any idea where i can find it??
:?:

i have the same problem, its really annoying.. can anyone help please

Same for me with my Qtek 2020i (in the past I posted a topic about this).
I hope there's a trick or hack to store all the photos in one folder

i found some Regirty entries on the phone for the camera but i dont know if changing them will help !!
i will try and let you know ! If anyone else tried this plz let us know!

That game is cool
But do you know of any text only games in .cab format ?
Many thanks
Steve

Anybody
Anybody ??

Your best bet is to download an Infocom games interpreter (called a "Z-Machine", google it) and the relevant gamefiles. Then it's a matter of tastes, but you probably want to start with "Wishbringer".

Request
Could you please add the .cab files onto here ?
Thank you very much for your help
Steve

Here it is..emulator (copy it to \Windows\Start Menu\Programs) and a game file (Zork I) which you can place in My Docs or in some subfolder of MyDoc.
Here you can find out more about txt based games and download some more Zork games.

Hello Guys,

Any suggestion or code example are welcome
Thanks in advance
Stl09

please...
no one can help me

I think that this forum is only for "friends" who made here an private company. There is no space for newer user !!!

there's ever space for new users, but have you ever tried to use google or look at the place where settings are stored, i.e. registry? simply set a own background image and then search for this value and you should find the key HKCU/Software/Microsoft/Today/Wall
Find this key need less than 5 minutes...
just my 2 cents
greetings from germany

Guten Tag Philipp,
5 minutes to give an wrong answer my friend ! Trust me that if was so easy, I would never open a new thread.
Concerning you answer, I would like to inform you that not only this key doesn'r exists in registry, but also I was asking about "TF3D" version...
Summing up, I think that we have to be careful and absolutely certain before remark any question !!
