Is there an app like bluephoneelite for windows?
I want to be able to send messages and make calls using my pc. Is there something available?
dashwire
I dont know for the calls, but for messaging i use dashwire.
You install a client on the phone, and it backup all your sms, contacts, call logs to the cloud (internet server) an you can send message an manage contacts from there.
The nice thing, its a web app, so you can openit in any place. You have always your contacts and messaging backupd for an eventuality. And you dont have to connect the phone each time you want to send a message, the client on your phone automatic sync with your dashwire page.
The bad thing, it doesnt aloud calls, but i dont really care about that. And it use your data conection (or wifi).
Heres the link http://www.dashwire.com/
And this thread belongs to Q&A...
Thanks for the link gabiton.
I'm looking for something that works directly with the computer. Similar to bluephoneelite.

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

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?

Hi all!
Just wanted to have your advise on what program to use to syncronize X1 with PC?
The reason I ask is that by syncing with Outlook I can sync only contacts and e-mails, cannot backup sms. Also, the way X1 saves contacts to Outlook is a bit weird. To cut the case - I don't like it.
I use MobilEdit to sync, yet it is quite good for contacts themselves, but still sucks with sms and doesn't fully support e-mails.
Also, in regards to syncing, does anybody know, why my phone constantly is changing name to WINDOWSMOBILEXX upon attaching data cable? Annoys really.
Thank you in advance for your responses.
This is all over the forum.
Jeyo make good software for what you ask for.
This is what I found. Doesn't seem to be enough info there. yet, I've found software for sms full backup here. OK, anybody else could advise anything on that?
Also, in regards to sync error name change to WINDWOSMOBILE I was unable to find any info, neither here, nor google... Please point me in right direction, but not the door

Thats ok for sms but no good for email
From the OP he/she said

so i though sms was an issue.
Also with backing up emails, i dont really know if any tool that can. But most emails are kept on the remote server, so its quite easy to re-download the messages from the server to restore the emails......
Ive been looking around for a service like (my phone)
And here is what i did come up with.
www.dashwire.com
Its also a small app that installs on your wm enabled device.
And does the same trick as the latter from MS.
But it does more.
You can log on to your account and browse.
Videos
Pictures
Send realtime sms ! SMS chat !
you can browse your ringtones, and listen to them.
Also you can set a ringtone as primary.
The sync works in both ways, so if you add a contact. your phone will be updated too.
I love this app, and i wanted to share it with you all.
On my previous nokia, it came with a full software for the pc which allowed me to do a full back up of my phone, from contacts, to email account settings and set up, calendar, sms, games, the works.
HTC does not.
Is there a program that will allow this. I know our phone comes with two ways to back up emails and contacts, but not the actual account settings, or programs or even lay outs.
If I understand correctly doing an update will reset the phone back to day one.
On my old phone I was able to even place all the settings back, from ring tones to image files and back rounds.
Please advise if there is a good back up/ restore program available for our phones.
Thank you.
you can use Microsoft myphone to backup contacts and a few other things

Thank you for the response. that I know
I need something by a third party which does a better job, and will copy settings files, for example i have 4 non popular email clients runing on my phone. they are for my domains, not Gmail or yahoo or anything liek that.. and take time to set up with the servers and ports and funky passwords, so if there is an app that can copy all of it and store it, then restore after a flash, that would be great.
And im sure one exists, just need to find it.
I've seen a post on the HD2 forum for this, but no replies.
When you set pop email send/receive to "manual", then whenever you connect the phone via USB (to synchronise calendar/contacts) the phone goes and collects the mail anyway.
This is annoying because I only want to manually receive mail when travelling, and inbetween I have no need for icons reminding me I have "new" emails...
Kind of weird that the phone does this even when the "manual" option is clearly chosen. Anyone know of a way to avoid this?
No-one? Surely anyone who has their phone and PC connected, doesn't want to have their email showing up on both... or am I the only one to have this issue?
I don't use this option, so can't help with that . But isn't this a synchronisation option on the computer side. Isn't it possible to disable the synchronisation of individual options like the calendar and email etc?

You're thinking of Outlook mail and its synchronisation. My problem is with pop mail accounts which are not synchronised (the mail is downloaded but not deleted from the server, so the PC mail program is the master and the phone mail is just a way to catch up when you're not behind the PC).
So synschronisation is not related - this is purely to do with the action of the phone which does a send/receive during a USB connection, despite send/receive being set to manual. At all other times it does indeed not pick up mails automatically, but whenever I connect to USB and I have waiting mail (in one of my four accounts) it ends up on the phone also.
I know that I could disable the phone from accessing the internet over USB (which would stop pop access) but then I lose other functionality such as the automatic GPS satellite position update (which has a specific option to update itself when connected by USB).
HTC support have now told me that this is not a 'feature' you can change, although it took several attempts to get them to actually answer the question rather than feed me standard and unrelated responses, so I'm not sure that this is definitive.
Ok thnx for your feedback! Its a pitty that this is not a feature, but maybe somebody kan make an app for that ?
I just ditch the whole email thing. I use the browser to check email instead. Simple. Fast. Does not clutter the phone. Does not overburden the phone.

Also rather expensive when you are roaming internationally, and dependent on there being a (decent) webmail interface...
Yeah. You can't keep the emails in the phone. But that's the whole point. Having hundreds of email in the phone can only cause problems.
But if you access internet thru pc usb connection, or thru wifi, then the roaming problem won't apply.
Can't win them all.
