Hi
Someone told me that there is a program for wm that hide's your number when you send an sms.is it true?and if it is,where can i find this program?
thank you for your time
As far as I know, this isn't related to software in any way.
The SMS protocol requires sending the sender's number.
Even your cell operator cannot hide its number while sending SMS.
Regards
Well there is a program "Hush SMS" which sends flash sms ...it sometimes doesnt display number of the sender. however it doesnt work with all the recieptent devices. I have seen that if i send sms from my HTC Touch Diamond to the person having nokia cell phone the number gets displayed. While sending to someone having Samsung phone it doesnt display the number. Hence its not 100% working software. but u can try ur luck.

Dears,
I was searching all over the net about an application to deal with SMS issues, but did not find any, then thought if it would be a good idea to develop it. I am not a programmer, so thought to share the idea with you here.
Here are my thoughts; which is developing one application to do the following:
1- Every time you receive an SMS confirmation (that your SMS was received by the other party), his phone number appears (not his name) while it is stored in your Imate. The problem is that some times you send the same message to a lot of friends (at the same time), then u start receiving SMS confirmations but you do not know who did not yet received it! Some time due to their mobile was off or out of signal. It would be nice to have a program that dispayes the Contact name instead of the mobile number when you receive the SMS from the operator!
2- Same problem!! when you divert your mobile to the Service Center (to pretend it is turned off), people calls you and find your mobile is off. But you usually receive SMS notification about those who call you in this time (I do not know what this service is called??)!
Any way, when you receive SMS from the service center, it display the mobile numbers not the Contact name! Again the idea is to develop a software to display the Contact name instead of the mobile number.
Please let me know if the idea is not clear, and I got other ideas to add up to this application or other applications.
I just found your forum and have bee reading throught it for the past few days.
I think this is a great forum as I just purchased an Imate Jam and have resolved several problems from the forum members.
I have one strange occurance on my Jam that I do not know how to fix.
I received SMS's from my service which I do not have the contact number in my address book.
The sms message put's a name from my contacts that is not associtaed with teh SMS. When I deleted teh contact it showed another (The next time I received an SMS).
How to fix this?
It is not a problem...
You mean u got a message from your Service Provider right?
It is possible to send messages without a number in the from field instead it comes with a name. Providers usually send messages like that for conveniance...
It is also possible to do through a software in my Sony Ericsson p910i called iSMS maybe it's one of your friends playing a prank on you...
Let me explain a little bit more.
The message I received is from my service provider 100%.
However, in the SMS inbox it seems to list a name in the from field which belongs to one of my contacts.
Now What I did is remove that contact and waited fro another SMS from my service provoder.
What happened is the from field nows shows some other name that is in my contacts.
My question is, how does the SMS application detrmine the from?
When I had a nokia 6600 it just displayed a number.
Try to find some commonality in the contact like perhaps the first few digits or the last few digits are the same in that case what the provider is doing is that he's sending a message from a special number such as 646, 501 etc... in that case if your numers are not in the international format the phone picks up the nearest alternative name to the number and displays it.. if u save your contact details in international format it does not happen...
e.g +91 ..... in case of numbers from india...
Thanks
Ok I will give that a Try.
How can you tell what number the SMS is from.
When I open it, it just shows the name it has choosen but no number.
Hi all,
Is there a way to send a contact's phone number via SMS or the whole details of a contact (buisness card)?
On smartphone software I was using "send contact", but I can't find any application for my Jam.
Thanks.
Do a serach for an application called vCard.
It works fine if you make sure the number you're sending to has the international prefix.

hi
is there any way to sending SMS As Email(such as nokia phone) in imate k-jam?
in this method the sender's phone number will be hidden on all sony ericsons.
help me!
i can tell you how i do it with t-mobile. they got a short number where i have to send the sms. the first line of the sms has to be the email-adress of the recipient. t-mobile converts the sms into a nice desing standart email including my phone-number. call your provider service center, i guess that must work for you too.

thanks, but it dosn't work for me!

If you receive an SMS from none German number, this SMS will not identified even if the contact is stored in the address book.
e.g if the number starts with 0049xxxx or +49xxxxx and a contact is there then it will be recognized -> means the name is shown above the message -> always.
When the sender has +31xxxx or 0031xxxx no chance at all, btw not only +31 basically all other country numbers then +49.
It also doesn't work if you create a new contact from the received SMS. Once the sender sends again it’s still not identified.
The phone is the German t-mobile branded version. ROM version 1.33.111.2
SPB shell 3.5 is installed. The same phone book is used on HTC Touch, HTC Diamond and Asus A3x0. none of them has an issue to identify numbers...
Thanks for help
