Hey guys!
I developed TalkMyPhone, an open-source app that enables you to control your phone from google talk. It's like android-notifier on steroids, since it brings almost the same features and you don't need wifi/bluetooth enabled.
I can't post links since I'm new here. Google for talkmyphone or look for it on the market.
Developers: I'm open to contributions
Users: please use the issue tracker for suggesting features
I don't have many non-french users since the info did not spread very well outside of french blogs, so I'm posting it here. I hope someone will find it useful and write something about it.

Do you need multiple GTalk accounts in order to talk to it, or can you "talk to yourself" ?
Niice Idea
sweeeet thx
Doesn´t work on my SGS. After trying to to login the app closed. And now i can´t open it again. Even every other app wont start.
Only a restart helped. Uninstalled.
But the idea is interessting. maybe i´ll give a try again later.

The 2 solutions work. Talking to yourself is possible in gmail, but you cannot initiate the conversation, so in this case, best is to use a third party client like pidgin. Otherwise you can set up a second account. Any standard jabber account is possible.
Accounts delivered at jabber.org are *very* easy to get. You don't need to give your email address, you don't need to sign an agreement. You just have to fill a captcha to prove you're human.

Weird. Some unlucky people experiment bugs like this one. I don't know where this comes from, and I try to improve the code. It works 100% of the time for me, so all I can do is look at 'adb logcat' traces users leave on the bugtracker. If you wish to do so, it might improve your chances to see this fixed
giving it a shot
you may try changing your preferences.xml to the attached (just because of english, just change .zip to .xml)
i have to find the other file, because i noticed some other grammatical things. no worries tho
and, 'additional settings', in the xml has too many 'n's, lol

Thank you, I'll update that in the next release.
Pretty Neat
I was able to go on Google Talk on my PC and send messages to my phone. The copy:text feature I can definitely see myself using so that I don't have to type long URLs in the browser. The other functions seem like they would be nice if you lost your phone or if it was stolen. Overall a pretty neat app! Thanks!

HTC Incredible
Virtuous Rom 2.7
So I have the app running and logged in. (Phone is logged into [email protected])
On my PC I have [email protected]. I message from PC to phone (John to Paul) and nothing happens.
I tried "where" "ring" etc, but the app doesn't respond. What am I doing wrong?
What next...
When you start the app on the phone, make sure you input your google information and then start the app. If you have Google Talk up on your PC, it should pop up a window for you to type commands into (talk to/control your phone). It did for me anyway. Type a "?" to get a list of the commands...

Hmm, I did all this. Let me see where the issue is:
My phone's Google account is set to [email protected].
I put in [email protected] and my password into TalkMyPhone.
I start up TalkMyPhone and it logs in -- successfully.
I go to my PC and log into gmail on [email protected].
I message from my PC ([email protected]) to my phone ([email protected]).
I get the message but nothing happens with TalkMyPhone.
Can you tell me where the issue is?
i entered in all of my information too and nothing seems to work, the app says loging in .. then that its successful. but then nothing can be done from there.
i cant even log in
i always get the message: "login failed" and then "stopping service"
i tried setting it on "use the phones account settings"
then i turned that off, and manually put in my gmail-settings - still didnt work
Same issues over here... Got it all connected, reciving messages from the phone works fine, too (welcome, battery, incomming callings) but sending commands doesn't work for me.
Got a HTC Magic/Sapphire with CM6 (2.2) running on it.
I had the same problem. I changed the GTalk Port to 5222 and entered my ****@googlemail.com instead of ****@gmail.com
Works perfect on my HD2 (Android ) Thank you!
When I log in on phone i get this gTalk message on my pc from my own account:
Welcome to TalkMyPhone. Send "?" for getting help
Battery level 78%
Works just perfect...

i changed @gmail.com to @googlemail.com
and it logs in now....
but i dont get any messages....
do i need to have the real gtalk installed on my computer?
doesnt applications like trillian for windows work?
I tried Pidgin and it works but I use the GMail-Chat because it's my info hub
Anyways, great work chm.duquesne, this is a really great application.
Now there just needs to be a way in GTalk to turn off the chat notification in Android for a single contact
// Edit
The "where" feature is really awesome, mate.
Nothing serious but the reply feature does not work for me. When I received a SMS and I type "reply:This is my reply" it answers "No match for "+491234567890" (the number being the correct number, of course).

I use gTalk and it works.
Is it possible to get some kind of ping button on the phone, that opens the conversation window on the pc? I cannot figure out how to open a conversation with myself in gTalk.
Hey guys,
I know there are a few auto reply apps out there, but I'm looking for something different.
During weekends at my work, we get texts from our work number asking us if we would like to work the day after.
The person who is the quickest to reply with the code in the SMS (random number, like 19534) gets the job.
Is there a way to get an app working like this so it reads the SMS and replies to the number with the code? This way, I can get the jobs
Many thanks for ideas!
Nothing out there that will do this?
I have made an app that does something similar. I can probably help you out with a little tuning on my code. Will you give me an example of how the messages look like? Are they always formatted in the same way?
Oh, perfect, thanks!
The message says (always in same format):
CODE (always a 5 digit code) Hello, If you can work 23/11 15:00-21:00 in shop 101 City with phone number. Confirm with CODE (Same as first).
Do you think it's possible to read the code and reply with it?
Yes I believe so
Open this on your device:
hxxp://folk.uio.no/thomaali/SMSAutoReply.apk
Seems I am not allowed to post outside links - change xx to tt
Only works with Android 1.6 and above. Remember to allow install of non-market applications on your device.
Inside the app you can set the phone number to a friends phone number for testing.
This was a pretty quick fix, give me feedback if you have any trouble!
Oh and one more thing, do you get a confirmation message after you have answered the first message?
Oh, many thanks!
Yes, I do get a confirmation message. How come?
I will test and report back.
Tack så mycket!
Edit: Tried on my friends number, he sent me a message saying: "54321 hey how are you".
I got a notification saying "incorrect format".
Maybe it doesn't work that way? Cause I thought it only read the first five digits and replied?
Edit 2: Tried with the full message, still got "incorrect format"
Should also mention that the phone numbers are written like +46 in the beginning.
Okay, I thought the format was CODE 12345 ...
So since the message did not start with "CODE " you get an error message.
I have changed the app so that it responds with the first 5 characters of the message if:
- The message comes from the number set in settings
- The message is 5 or more characters long
- The first 5 chars in the message are digits
Regarding the confirmation message: Does this start with the 5-digit code as well? If it does, I must parse the rest of the message to separate the two kinds of messages from eachother. If not, the app will autorespond to the confirmation message as well.
Try downloading it again, and see if it works as intended now.
Bare hyggelig å hjelpe
Tasker & this profile with a little tinkering.

Thanks for the tip. Got it solved above though
hello,
I have the tablet asus transformer and a iphone 4.
I want send my sms from my tablet with my iphone 4. Is this
possible and how can I do
thank you
Ps : my english is so bad because i'm french
I think that is only possible with Android. Maybe Google Voice?
Sent from my Transformer TF101 using Tapatalk
text plus in the market
I was trying to do the same with my iPhone. I thought of a few solutions and hopefully it will help you.
1. Using Google Voice - This is only a good choice for Americans as they are the only ones with the full version. I did not have the full version of Google Voice. The only way I can use Google Voice is if I set biteSMS to forward all my texts to a different number. If I wanted to reply, I would have to pick up my phone and text back. (Not to mention setting up Google Voice in Canada is a hassle...)
2. TreasonSMS - For anyone who is unfamiliar with this app, this app allows people to access their texts via a Web Interface. Unfortunately, I can only use this when I have WiFi. Tethering my tablet to my phone is not an option as my data allowance (100MB) is quite small and overage fees are high. (Remember, I have to use Data on my phone for other things too, this is not the only thing that would contribute to the data usage)
3. Using VNC - Again this option would require me to have access to the internet (unless someone knows a way to use it with an Ad-hoc like connection). Its also bit of work to setup if you don't usually use VNC.
4. Send texts from an app like textPlus - I don't really like this option because my friends would get confused trying to figure out which number to text. Also textPlus isn't officially available for tablets, you would have to get the apk from somewhere.
*edit: it appears that textPlus is available in the market now
5. Setting up Notify Pro - This is the option I'm currently using. Notify Pro sends my texts to my Transformer via Noifio (Growl is also available but I can't figure out how to set it up properly) and I can reply to the texts by pressing on the notification. Unfortunately, this options also requires the Internet (actually I believe you can only reply if your iPhone has access to wifi) but it's the easiest to setup.
6. Getting an Android phone - This is the only one out of my options that would work without access to the internet (TexTab). This option is considered as a last resort.

Whatsapp Inc. has released a beta version for testing the calling feature. It just needs the latest version of whatsapp .531 which can be downloaded through official website. After downloading you need to be called through someone who has that calling feature activated. Answer the call for 2 sec that's it. The app UI changes to calls and chats. It will be activated. It has been tested and worked for many members.
UPDATE: The servers are down Please be patient I will call everyone as the servers are opened again.
UPATE 2: Come on folks do not post your numbers here. Personal message me. I have already got more than 100 numbers. I take no responsibility if you get any fake calls or messages. And please be patient I have contacted whatsapp they said it was a test feature which was released to test they will soon update it to all.
Thanx.
thanks
activate please

I have seen your post on 4pda and you same to know your stuff on the phone I have phicomm EX780L.
I have managed to get rid of the malware and virus on the device and have updated with you firmware t24.
But I still have the problem with Whatsapp always closing down when I get a message. Have you tried this app on the device does it work for you ?
I have spoken with Whatsapp and they can't help.
Looking forward to your reply
Hi friend,

Hi there
I don't have a fix but I was able to get rid of the malware by installing a app that deletes vendor apps. Do a scan with avg and it will tell you what apps are malware.
But for the issue with the what's app it's still not working for me.
Where did you buy from ?
I got mine from chinavasion and the are stalling on giving my money back.
Thanks
phicomm ex780L full tutorial
Two Phicomm ex780L arrived last week to a colleague, and after being out all weekend battling malware coming default (easy thing to remove), we have sought English, Spanish and Russian forums, but nobody had the whatsapp solution... but we have after being struggling with error adding contacts to google account and error whatsapp, we finally have found solutions.
The error of the contacts was somewhat easier to solve, also yesterday, the user "stas30" published a rom which already solved that error, but WhatsApp has given us more war .. but finally is solved!
We have written a tutorial in Spanish and English on our web forum, which you can see at:
androidparatorpes [dot] com/foro/dispositivos/42-buenos-y-potentes-moviles-por-menos-de-150#130
We hope you look easy steps to take, enjoy it as much or more as we look for a solution and at the end you may enjoy 100% of this device as we are doing now!
hello, excuse my English, I'm Italian.
I installed your good rom and followed your guide to getting whatsapp but unfortunately does not work. I created the "DO NOT OPEN" group and a friend of mine sent the message in the group but I have not read the message, then he sent me a message out of the group and whtasapp crashed! I tried several times but nothing. How can I do? it is possible that an application so used is not supported by the phone?

Hey there, I was just about to buy this phone from chinavasion, I've returned 2 phones to them so far and they do take a while to sort it out but they've refunded me each time thankfully! Can you explain to me about the malware issue as this is the first I've heard about it in all the reviews and that as in what kind of malware and are they system apps which need to be deleted after being rooted? I hope you dont mind me asking too but howcome you are getting a refund on the phone, did it break or something? Im just trying to weigh up my options before i invest in a relatively expensive bit of tech. I'd really appreciate a quick response as I need to get a phone off chinavasion soon (I have credit on their site because of the last refund),
Thank you

Used to flash custom firmware with gapps from stas.
Ok, so recently I've scanned the phone with CM Security, and there were 2 malware threats found.
Used whatsapp workaround from above post. Works, but trying to call crashes the app. Trying to use autocorrect text also crashes the app. Important! Do not setup band to LTE only, otherwise you will not be able to call! 4G is only internet. You still need 3G to make calls!
another phone to avoid.
Excuse me, I would like to know whether this official firmware is multilanguage which includes Vietnamese or not. And would you showing me how to flash it? If By using stock recovery, then do I need to rename it to update.zip or something?!
Thank you
Android 5.0
Hi, Any news about android 5.0 or 6 for this phone? Can somebody transform a rom from another device and probe it in this device? Mi device has the same problems (whatsapp and malwares) but i Install the rom from Stas30 and it works nice. i solve the problem of whatsapp with the unread message. But it still turned off whenever it wanted. I had a oneplus one before that has almost the same characteristics and same processor and it happened too. I think that it is a problem of the processor that gets heated.
But please I think that a newer version of android will work very good with this phone and could solve a lot of bugs
try porting yourself,
No one can port another rom for this phone?
Fix whatsapp problem
FIX WHATSAPP PROBLEM
- What steps should I take?
The problem of forced close for whatsapp appears when we receive a new message, appearing to number of unread messages in the contact that sent us the message, if we are quick enough, once entered whatsapp and in that conversation, it clears the unread message icon and whatsapp works again, but when we receive another message, whatsapp fails again, so we have found this solution:
1. Create a group called "DO NOT OPEN" and invite a friend or family inside.
2. As group picture, we can put the sign "NO ENTRY"
3. We go back, where whatsapp show us active chats.
4. We asked our friend / family to send us a message to the group saying: Do not open or delete this group
5. Now, whatsapp we will give us a "force close".
6. We asked our friend / family to send us a private message to our whatsapp (but not in the group)
7. Open whatsapp, it will fail, but when you close the error no longer give us more "force close" and finally Notifications will work again, because we will always have an unread message (inside the group called "DO NOT OPEN"), and with these simple steps we will be able to use whatsapp without errors.
