Sending SMS messages using computer?

I was wondering if anyone knew of any programs that would let me simply just send sms messages via the computer so i can type them using my keyboard?
I experimented with pocket controller, but its too bulky and slow and just emulates the screen, all i need is a simple sms message sender.

Check the Jeyo software:
Jeyo Mobile Companion
Jeyo Mobile Extender for Outlook

SMS cool from Aim Productions lets you send sms from your pc.. it should be out soon if it not already.

Seeing as you're on Vodafone you may want to check with them. They have created a little plugin for Outlook - in the UK anyway - that allows you to send SMS's from your PC and either have replies sent to your PC or phone. Its free - in the UK - until the end of the year and I presume will be standard SMS cost after that.
Its called Vodafone text centre which you should be able to find on www.vodafone.co.uk, sorry I don't have the link on me.
Pocket controller I use at the office and home, brilliant I think it is.

Quick google later, Linky
Will have to give it a try later

Sending SMS messages using computer
Try this program, Dr Neils SMS Utils, its free and you may donate to support Dr.Neils efforts.
You need to connect your PPC with Active Sync and the DNSMS utils will fetch all your sms inbox . You can use the same interface to send them too. Nice utility.
The only problem it will look for contacts in outlook. if your contacts are not synched with outlook then you would have to type the phone number as well.
if you have installation problems try downloading and installing the .Net Framework. from Microsoft website.
post your feedback to help others too.

yah you have to right click on the top tool bar and select sms for it to show.. something else i did as well to make it appear but forgot w
hat. i'm pretty sure its included in the readme which is there for a reason. :lol:

I think Jeyo is crap. The software is buggy, doesn't work for me and also doesn't receive SMS stored in subfolders. The developers know about this issue but haven't corrected it for months now. In my opinion, it's just a bad software.

so what would you recommend is better? also heres a firefox extension to send sms through google, i think it only works in the US and UK.
http://toolbar.google.com/firefox/extensions/sendtophone/

Jeyo mobile extender works fine for me with one exception:
it won't read the address book (fully patched Outlook xp)
Sends and receives OK if you manually type numbers in but once I hit the adress book or "to:" button, outlook becomes unuseable.
I think it is a security issue where mobile extender wishes to access the address book. Normallyy a window will appear and ask for permission, however with jeyo Mobile Extender this doesn't happen.
Buggy buggy, time to uninstall unless anyone has experienced similar and has a work around?

Backup SMS Messages to Desktop

Is there a way to backup SMS messages (sent and received) to your desktop PC?

Yes! Jeyo Mobile Companion, it costs money but is excellent software! or....http://www.ppcwarez.org/phpBB2/articles.php?t=15732&order=DESC&mode=news
word of warning thought mate, if you use that link, you're gonna run into problems with conflict over the owner name and the crack supplied with download. take a glance at the comments for solutions...time spent getting this software is worth it though - it's brilliant!

does it backup drafts folder too?

Bizigi, thanks for quick reply but the software isn't up to par.
The software is buggy, requires a restart--and theres no way to get messages from all the folders, only the inbox looks like.
If you want to get messages from other folders, copy them over to the inbox folders, but then when you sync it, it will not show up.
You will have to goto a another folder section in Outlook and it will be in there. Now, there is no way to export those messages to a comma delimited/text file.
I would highly warn against this software, it's a huge mess really.

You can say that you can get cracked ones but should not be linking to them!!!

Microsoft MyPhone service

As seen in recent WM6.5 cooked roms, there's a feature called Microsoft My Phone, which should be an online synch of contacts and whatsoever on the phone. Anyone got to try that?
http://myphone.microsoft.com

I got it on my Diamond, tried it out. It works as advertised. It backs up your stuff in the cloud, and everything is accessible via web as well.
However, I sync my contacts with my school's Exchange server and also with Windows Live, so it's kinda useless for me.
I guess if you aren't synced to another service and if you flash different roms a lot, this can be useful. It backs up everything (text messages, media, contacts, documents, etc)
The only complaint I have is that it just syncs up anything, so it takes pictures from Opera's cache. My my phone is already full of random small images and gifs from the Opera folder. I don't think there's a way to assign different folders not to sync.

I can't get why, but I can't use that. I signed, I got the mail from MS telling me I've been enabled, I even downloaded the latest cab from the MS Live Page but this just won't allow me to synch, reporting MSN ID issues. Anyone got this working under WM6.5?

Apparently, there was this issue, check the link here.
My Phone Team Blog

I read it was only compatible with WM6 and 6.1 but the workaround you pointed worked great! I could finally synch, even with 6.5 ROM! Thanks!

MyPhone sucks!
I think myphone sucks! What do i need an other stand-alone service for? is it that hard to connect it to windows live? or mesh? or whatever the f****** services name is?

Have you ever been able to sign in?
Also, when I signed up, there were limited places on the beta program, and it took about a week before I got allocated a place...
I'm currently using an exchange server, but MyPhone backs up my pictures and text messages, which Exchange just can't do.

After the initial waiting period (to be picked), and after a fresh install of the app downloaded right from MS (not the one in 6.5ROMs, it's buggy), I was able to sign in and synch in a couple of seconds.

That´s maybe it. I received my invitation on Saturday, and I have never been able to sign in. Although, when I enter a incorrect address it says WRONG ID. So I guess I´m still not allowed. I´ll wait a week.
I reinstall and still no server connection.
Thanks guys!
Keep you posted!

Was there a "click here to verify" link in the email?

No!
It was not!
just https://myphone.microsoft.com
should I have it? mmm interesting!

I've found the myphone app very usefull. I've been testing a load of ROMs over the last couple days and without the myphone app it would be annoying trying to backup and restore all my contacts, text messages and calendar items all the time.

After using myphone for about a week I have come to the conclusion that Dashwire is a lot better. Both the phone interface and the web interface win hands down in my opinion.
Check it out dashwire.com/

wow! this is interesting!
I create a new account @hotmail.es
I received the invitation! and it syncs!
awesome isnt it?
shame i have to remember something else

[WM6.5] "Enable Updates" in Pocket Outlook?

So I'm poking around in Pocket Outlook, and under "Menu>Tools>" there's a Greyed out item named "Enable Updates". I tried searching for any info regarding this, but couldn't find any. I can't find anything that allows me to use the item from the menu, but was curious what it was for. Anyone care to enlighten me?

This functions works with Exchange 2010
I don't know how, but it works only with 2010

SMS Sync works only with Exchange 2010 too...

Thanks for the info!

Yeah, it's an Exchange 2010 feature and seems it will also work with WM6.1:
Over the Air Update Mode
You can now push new Outlook Mobile updates/new versions to Windows Mobile 6.1 and above. This is really nice since you no longer have to wait for a new Windows Mobile OS version to obtain a new version of Outlook Mobile.

Also, slightly off-topic: Has anyone figured out how to actually send SMS from Outlook/OWA with Exchange 2010?

SMS TXT from PC - Is There An App For this

Hi all
Relatively new to this, so please excuse my ignorance. I have used Nolia phones beofre, and their PC software has an app that let's you send SMS messages from a desktop PC interface, via the phone (as long as the phone is connected to the PC by way of Bluetooth or cable).
Is there anything similar for Win Mobile?
I have a Diamond which I have just flashed with 6.5.1 - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=553844

Got the best experiences with Efficasoft Mobile Express (sorry, no link at the moment) - you can handle all textmessages on desktop-pc: write, read, send, copy, delete - what ever you want. All that via ActivSync..
Use Google and enjoy
