Sending text messages from PC through ActiveSync - General Topics

Hi,
I've been browsing the web and can't seem to find anything suitable. Does anybody know of way of sending text messages from your PC through Active Sync to an XDA mini s. Something similar to the Nokia PC Suite. I can't believe that nothing exists?
Thanks
Marc

1, welcome to XDA-Dev
2, you mean, say, mass message seding with, say, contribution lists on the desktop PC? Or, did you mean simply remote controlling your PPC? If the latter, read my remote control articles (Wiki!)

Hi, Thanks for the welcome.
I've seen the application that remotely controls the PPC through the active sync connection. I was hoping of just some kind of small app that could sit somewhere with your contacts and then send text messages from.
Is the remote control app the way that people normally do this then?
Regards
Marc

you can just buy Jeyo mobile companion (to be used independently in your desktop) or mobile extender (to be used as plug in to your outlook) to send SMS from your desktop.

Thanks, will have a look at the Jeyo software. Was hoping for something open source but that's pretty cheap. Marc

I use Pocket Controller-Professional it's great and it syncs clipboards too great for pasting addresses etc from my pc data base into text to send

Desktop software to send/receive SMS' via cradle/activesync?

I haven't been able to find anything like this.
My old Nokia 6610 used to have software that let me send and receive SMS's when the phone was connected to my PC. I found it to be a very handy tool.
Is there something like this available?.. Maybe via Outlook?...
Obviously the freeware tools get first choice 8)
not a 100% solution but ms have a free program which let you remote control your pda from windows
so using that program you could send sms's
Thanks for the tip.. do you have a link or a name I can search for?

Thank you !
Theres a program called Jayo mobile extender that adds functionality to Microsoft outlook to send / read etc
Its really good because you can use it like your sending normal E-Mail

Try Jeyo Mobile Extender 2.5 for Outlook...
www.jeyo.com
I use it and it's ok!
I´ve try a lot of programs. Unfortunately they won´t connect the phone. I´am using Windows Server 2008 64bit as OS. I´ve checked with Jeyo, PocketSMS 2.02. Anyone have alternative programs?

Well, i have same situation in my office, my desktop computer runs Windows 2008 server, and the only way i found to connect my PDA was install VMWare Workstation and use a guest OS with Vista or XP and connect the PDA to the guest OS instead to host...
Cheers
Why don 't you try MyMobile software (freeware)? Then you can see (like remote desktop) your mobile 's screen and use your PC keyboard and mouse to write SMS. You don 't even need Active Synch. Use IP connection.

I use mymobiler and it works, but its very slow (USB).....(I´am writing
10fingers.....) If I type too fast, the phone doesn´t become the input....
I use Pocket Controller Pro, and it's awesome!!!(fast, includes explorer, regedit, skins, etc..), it's not free but worth it.

dashwire
Use a website called www.dashwire.com. I just registered yesterday and it is awesome.
Basically, you register on the site, install an app on your touch pro, and then the app backs up all your contacts, sms, etc (you can choose which) and sends them to the site, where you can read and reply. If you write an sms on the website, it sends the details to your touch pro via the internet, then sends the sms from your touch pro. Cool eh?

Very cool indeed....except that hopefuly you realize that you are deliberately providing more than personal information to a company you probably don't know at all. Ever wondered why it's free? No ads, no nothing? No way anybody makes any money from this service...but most likely is resseling all the info you share...just read the disclaimer of this shady company...anyway, if I were you I would immediatelly shut it down! Am not sure how much you are familiar with legal lingo, but the wording of terms of use is leaving more than enough space for them to do pretty much anything with your information.
Call me paranoid, but this is NO GO for me. Just like "wonderful" Facebook, which I personally call the biggest privacy scam in the history....
Just saying...
ahh, without the option "USB to PC" fast sync Jeyo works fine also with Windows Server 2008 Now, I´m happy Thanks for help!

[App] SMS through PC - Windows Mobile 6

All,
few years back the company I worked for had an application allowing SMS messages sent via desktop through outlook to the phone recipent...
Now with that in mind....i'm wondering if there is an application that can:
type text messages through your desktop whilst having the mobile connected to the computer i.e. through ActiveSync (basically so I don't have to fiddle around with the phone and text)
okay so mobile is HTC Touch HD (WM 6.1)
what do you think?
erm there already is an app floating in the Dev&Hack Forum called SmsSender
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=452608
Hey try this App, MyMobiler, its an app that lets you control your phone from the desktop, even send/receive sms via phone. hope this helps!! Mymobiler.com
Using for about a year, works for me!!
Yip my mobiler is good. However if you want intergration with outlook (2003 and above only) on ur laptop/pc, Raspbery software do an app called True Connect. Its not freeware (about 15-20$) but it is very good and you can see the texts inc send and recive from outlook on ur PC. Google it.
btw if you buy it and have problems, their support is VERY GOOD!!
ENjoy.
Efficasoft Mobile Express is also a very good free application for sending SMS using your PC while connected via activesync.

I just went to the site.. worked perfectly.
also, you can use Jeyo Outlook Companion.
and if your network supports Text Messaging thru outlook you can define it to send SMS's from your number without connecting to your phone using activesync.

You can use "Efficasoft Mobile Express" which can connect to your cell phone and send/receive SMS. Unfortunately, no MMS support.
... or Jeyo Mobile Companion: http://www.jeyo.com/companion.asp
It is a great app - just check it out - you can do much more with it than manage messages
or you can use MyMobiler from http://www.mymobiler.com/ with witch you can use your phone interface from the pc and do exactly what you do on your mobile but you can use your pc keyboard to type!!
theres also a mini sms server, on the front page off the xda_dev portal..
thanks guys....

Phone Manager

Hey all,
I was wondering if there is any phone manager third party or Microsoft software which we can use to sync windows mobile phones to the computer and like the sony ericsson's third party mobile manager, send text messages, receive text messages to our computer screens for which we can reply using our computer.
The back up's of all text messages, contacts and outlook are also taken care of by the software. If windows mobile phones are compatible with any such software i'd be glad to know about it.
cheers.

You can use a combination of ActiveSync (for syncing) and MyMobiler (for controlling the device from the PC).
Thanks but does it let us send texts from the computer itself??
Thanks alot!!! this is amazing.. cheers!!!
