Hopefully this is okay to post in this section. Although this app is payed for on the Android Market I am offering it to the XDA community for free.
SMS2PC is a small app that runs in the background on Windows, Mac and Linux and allows you to send/receive messages via your Android phone. This, at the time of release, was the first SMS sending app for Android. There are now lots of alternatives but I think my app still has the polish and desktop integration (you don't need to keep browser open) that some people prefer.
You can download the APK attached, copy over through USB etc.
To download the desktop client, visit: w w w .geekyscott. com / sms2pc/ (sorry i cant post links....)
I hope you will all enjoy the app. Please don't post it on other websites as I would like this to be an XDA-exclusive thing. In a few months when I get the time to clean my source, I will upload the source for everyone to use/extend.
Features:
Auto PC location (no need to enter IP address on WIFI)
Forwards SMS from mobile phone to desktop (osx, windows or linux(beta))
Multi-send messages from desktop
Phone address book sync with phone
Handles send notifications and delivery notifications
Secure Encryption
Customizable interface
USB support (enable debugging on phone)
WIFI support
Connect over internet via 3G
Syncs message history
Message smiles/emoticons
Custom desktop audio notifications
Streamlined, simple and clear interface
Thanks for being a great community.
p.s. My old account is ScottishGeek, it would be nice to merge that with this if any mods read this.

Does your cell phone need signal to send the messages to your PC?
Or does it forward messages straight off the network?

It can link to your computer via USB, WiFi or Cell. Cell isn't recommended unless you have a good quality 3G network. It will be able to send a message as long as you have the smallest connection to your cell tower. I for example, leave my phone in an area in my flat I get signal (near the window) and use my laptop to send receive deep in my living room where normally I am in a black spot.

So wait. This application will install on my PC, connect to my Android phone, and allow me to send SMS text messages to my phone contacts on my PC? I tried airdriod for that but I had to refresh in order to see new messages. Which was an inconvenience. If this is the case with this app, will it work in real time?

Note: I love Edinburgh, i love Scottland (3 times along these years on holidays....Where is Nessy? )

works great
thanks

thank you very much for this. may i ask for another feature?
i'm using a dual sim phone so would it be possible to have an option to choose from which simcard to send an sms in the sms2pc desktop client?

is it possible to make whatsapp / facebook messenger to work like this as well?

At this time there is no support for these messengers... but there is a possibility to make this happens. It really depends if the support 3rd party API's or if they have a simple database I can hook into. But sending may be a problem. Ill have a look.

If the Android API supports switching between dual sim then I will be able to implement this. I will have a look in the next few days.

Hi friend.. I think there is a problem between your program and Cerbelus. This morning I have been testing sending messages. Later, i´seen seen my phone communication has stopped working and then i have had to reset my device because was hanged. After reset and phone communications right i´ve received a message from Cerbelus with an alert message due SIM change. Now my Samsung SII works ok again but i turned off SMS2PC. Very strange. Can there be a conflict??

I am not sure why there would be a problem. I am using standard API's and Android design guidelines. I believe you are my first using using this Cerbelus software. If you could send me your logcat at the time of the problem I may be able to provide a fix for you.

I can't get it work with wi-fi connection. I allowed the TCP/UDP ports through the firewall, but no thing. USB connection works.

Sorry this is a bug I will fix at the weekend.

Wow looks great, i will have a play with this at the weekend.
I like how you can use it over 3g too, thats a big plus for me, could even use it over USB at work too!
Thanks for sharing this with us! :good:

You are a nice philanthropist! THANKS
:laugh:Man I am new to the XDA community but It seems that it's not everyday that a developer freely gives his paid app for the rest of the community. I already installed it and it seems to work quite fine.
Thanks a lot. Success man.

Wow
Great to see some apps with Lateral thinking.
I think it would be a great enabler for other apps in future.
Once again THANKS!!!
And great work!!!:good::good::good:

Awesome...
And thank you - I had been playing around some similar apps, but none really "fit the bill" for what I was looking for.
This looks to be exactly what I wanted, however - I'm having an issue with the connection over USB, I have it in debug mode and it's connected direct to the laptop, but times out at 12 seconds each time.
Can't test it over wifi because it's restricted from use in this environment, but will try it from home later today.
I suspect it will work just fine once I get it to the house, but it would be infinitely more useful here at the office...
Also, curious as to whether there might be some incompatibilities with one, or both of the OS's I'm using: Windows 8 Consumer Preview on the laptop and Ice Cold Sandwich 4.04 ICS on an Inspire 4G.

Hiya, don't worry, i dun mind you posting the file.
however i hope that you can remove it to avoid confusion, coz the link to download the application is a direct link, which i would update often so everyone can download the newest version from there, uploading it would result in multiple versions, harder to control
Anyway, i have edited my original post to a Direct Link to the file from my domain, so i suppose everyone can download it now?
Thanks everyone

Rahjinoh,
The message which I added last night didn't get send this morning.
Anyway, I was using beta version 0.2 and now I have uninstall it and using version 0.3.
I am retesting with a message dated 2004-11-02 18:38:38 now. Doesn't seems to be working. Is there some indication that tells me that the scheduled message is sent?
Perhaps a user guide is good?
Anyway, the standard beta user wish-list:
(a) Multiple receipents for same message
(b) Support for Extended SMS
(c) Support for MMS
(d) A bigger text box
(e) A more user-friendly date/time schedule selection
(f) Priority shifting. After sms is schedule, perhaps we can change the priority for those with identical timing?
(g) Re-editing of submitted SMS.
Cheers!

I can't replicate the problem of SMS not sending out (at least on v0.3BETA), i've scheduled 12 SMS in quickk successions of every 1 min and all 12 SMS got sent out (to myself :lol: )
I will now schedule a SMS for the next day to see if it's any case of lagging concerns. (Shouldn't be a problem becoz i've scheduled SMS 1 week in advance before in my Alpha version, but i will look out for potential problems)
Right now, my current 0.4BETA-PENDING version will remove schedule of SENT SMSs. Meaning, if your SMS is sent out, it will no longer exists in the grid. If this kind of indication ok for you?
Thanks for your feedback.
0.4BETA - 03112004 Updated
henry, check this version out and see if sms still get stuck , i changed the algorithm of check/sending
Great program, fast. Only two problems for now, takes a lot of memory and I can't choose from contacts to send SMS

Thanks for your feedback Application is based on .NET CF, so might be a memory hog, you using a XDA or XDAII? As app is build on a XDAII, it might be *not* too optimised for other makes of PPCPE. but i will look into it with a iPAQ6365 and see how it works. Sorry about that
As for contacts, it might just be in the next version, so long i dun receive any critical bug reports

No probs, I can live with the size, since I will close the program after sending my SMS. Look forward to the contacts addin.
Also what about standard phrases (i.e. meet me at...) just like in the standard app. Does your app. save the messages sent???? If not might be good to have an in/outbox
Will definately keep your recommendations in mind. In fact i'm planning features for my next release.

yup, it works!

I've updated v0.4BETA to another build so that you can select the whole of year 2005.
Have been busy with work to tinker with the app, but will improve it when i get more time :wink:

Hi!
Include the abilities to read incoming sms and stores them to storage card would be best, huh?
:roll:
thanks for all your comments, however, this is only my free time project, i hold a full time job, thus i'm unable to commit totally into it, coz work have been very very busy. However, all your points have been noted and i will try to incorporate the features if possible.
Thanks for your support though

TextHer - P2P serverless messaging app for Android

Today I am launching TextHer app which enables users of android phone to communicate privately and securely between them.
TextHer
It is a peer to peer (serverless) messaging app where the messages are directly sent from one phone to another without being routed through or stored on any servers.Messages will be not be routed through carrier's server instead it will be directly sent from one phone to another using data connection.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.spacenext.texther
Sending a message:
To send a message to another phone just type the primary gmail address of the phone,type your message and send it.
For example my phone's primary account is [email protected],Just type the mail address or just the account name(ramanean) and send a message
Features
1.No Registration is required and Free unlimited messages.
2.Secure/Instant communication between any two individuals
3.Instant Delivery of messages (unless the other phone doesn't have a working data connection)
4.Messages are not stored on any servers.they are stored only on your phones.
5."Background Send" option which allows a delivery of messages incase of a failure.
6.Messages are encrypted by AES standards
This app would make it difficult for law enforcement and spy agencies to track what is being communicated between two phones as the messages sent are encrypted by a standard AES algorithm and the messages are not stored on any server.It allows secure communication between two phones without the fear of being tracked for their messages.
Serverless:
It's not entirely serverless as we store the ips on our server and give it to the clients which enables phones to connect with each other. And I have plans to come out with another version which would never involve a server.
I hope I would get a constructive review on your site.Please let me know whether you need any extra information

a) This app won't be available in certain countries in the Middle East and south East Asia!
b) There is too much of snooping around and that's why I have come out with this app
c) On other hand it would help organizations like Occupy Wall Street and people in their protests.It would great help in free speech
MY answer to others who question my app!
Why do you need a intermediate person to message/communicate your loved one? Whether we use a third person to communicate with our loved ones inside our house? The answer is No.. and that is the reason I have come out with this app.
Okay here's what I discovered after a bit of goofing around:
1) You use app for a few minutes and it is impossible to get out. Pressing back keeps bringing you back to previous screen. In a loop.
2) I tried messaging myself. Didn't work.
3) I tried messaging on ramaean. App not installed
4) When I tried messaging to shangce, it force-closed on me.
5) You need to have a more consistent UI. You have used all the colors in rainbow
I don't want to come off as a ****, but if someone wanted to use an app for truly private communication I think they should be asking the following questions:
Could you describe in detail what happens to the text from the time you press Send to when the recipient's phone beeps?
How do we know your servers aren't logging our messages?
Why should we use your app instead of an encryption app?
Please don't take this as an insult to your app or hard work, but they are legitimate concerns for any security related app. I would be much more comfortable if there was an encryption feature.
You got some of the points wrong
a)My mail ID is [email protected] and not "ramnean" (use ramanean)
b)You can click on the home button in the bottom help menu to come out
c)I won't reveal from my that mail address "shangce"
d)I don't know which provider you are using.l
This app will not work if the phone has internal IP's!!
UI :
I need to work a big on UI As I always choose colors wrong

a) I used the correct id. there was a typo in above message. Anyway, this isn't a deal-breaker.
b) I should still be able to come out of an app by pressing back button. Don't you think?
c) Didn't get you.
d) It works after disabling WiFi. My bad.
e) You can try a two-colour theme.

What's the version of Android you are using?
Ok, so is this still a "NO" for us in the Middle East? Will you post the apk file here or will I have to wait till I get back to India later this month to download it?
Is there some reasoning for barring people based on location? Am pretty sure that:
a) A terrorist is neither in our midst nor that one would be wandering around in the xda forums looking for something they could use.
b) If they are aware of a software such as this they could always get one of their partners in crime to download it from an off site location and mail it to them.
Hope that you will post it here.

Remember that the app works only for external ip's it doesn't work for natted ip's (I am trying to fix it)
Send a message to yourself to see that whether it works for you! If you didn't get your own message then it won't work for you as you may on a natted/internal IP
Nice idea, flawed execution. No functionality in any of my tests. Currently attempt to use Redact instead.

Facebook sync - Remove the best feature?

I dont know if any of you guys used this function on 4.0.x, BUT I had all my Facebook contacts in my contact list (the people app on ICS). There was a option to "synchronize" all my FBcontacts with the facebook application, when I did so, All my facebook contacts with phone number turned up in contactlist (ICS People app)... Now it does the same thing but the other way... Facebook now try to find what contacts i got on my phone to synchronize with my facebook contacts... Anyone know how to get this function back? I used Haxsync to get high ress picture on their contacts...
It's kinda frustraing, cos now I've "lost" over 500 contacts... And only got my google contacts...
Hope I can get some answers... Cos I really want to get my contacts into my phones contactlist....
Are you on a custom ROM, Facebook sync does not work for anyone running a custom 4.1.1 that I'm aware of. Its on Facebooks side not ours....there's nothing you can do.

It worked on ICS for DHD for like a half year ago... I was using a ICS ROM... I do think that they have removed the function from facebook app, cos they have removed it with another function, as I said, they do it the other way....
I remember that there was a function on the facebook app that said "Sync contacts"....
EDIT: So you say that it works on ICS and below... And not Jellybean?

I'm positive its not working on Custom 4.1.1 ROMs.... can't say for the others. And I agree,like I said, our inability to sync is on Facebooks side. Our devices are set up to do it, they're just not allowing it currently from my understanding.

You booted back into the rom and had zero contacts correct? Facebook sync will not bring them over right?
Was the device ever backed up to google, while also backed up to Facebook ? Im backing up to both, so for me, my iPhone syncs them to google, when I boot into a new rom I go into google and snag my contacts. You can also download your Facebook info and attempt to go thru that.

After last nights Facebook update I can confirm Facebook sync is working on my cm 10 devices.
Edit: although the process seemed to work. It didn't. My contacts came back via google, due to syncing from another device, not a Facebook sync...

Could you please explain how your facebook contacts came back from syncing with google? Does that mean that you had synced all your facebook contacts with google before you changed your ROM?
Google sabotaged Facebook in 4.x to promote Google+. You'll need a custom ROM that's fixed it to have it continue working.
There's some third party apps that claim to get the job done:

What Google did was enforce something they've had for some time now, namely their data portability agenda which demands that shared data is to be a two way street. Facebook has known this for a long time, and the only reason it worked was because G gave F a temporary exclusion from this rule, but of course had seen no reason to oblige if they can get away with it. Hopefully F will come to realize this soon, and for us users (not that I like their app at all) it's up to us to demand this feature from F, not from G.
Just my thoughts about this, for the time being I'm using HaxSync

iPhone repost of pictures (via share)
HI,
I've been searching the forums but have yet to find. Does anyone know how to repost (share) another persons post/pictures using the iPhone Facebook App? Is there a different FB app that i can get for iPhone that does this. the current one doesn't have an option. The same app on an android phone gives you the share feature but not on iPhone. Any suggestions or help would be great.
Thanks in advance

Before you get ripped up in here, this isn't a forum for iPhone or that type of question buuuut since you're here, no, you can't share like that, you can save yourself a web shortcut to your home screen and use safari's mobile web view to share and get those features you're missing. No 3rd party apps can do it either. PM me for more info.
You guys don't rip on this too hard lol

Thank you @StarkCity for your reply. Was helping out my friends who are all iPhone users. I'm the only one of the group with an android Samsung galaxy S III & they are so jealous of the features I have and the ease of sharing on Facebook among sharing pictures and face identity which will send the pic right to them after I take a pic. So I felt sorry for them and figured I'd find something. Lol oh well too bad for them. Thanks again!!

DZ09 app
Hi,
I bought a DZ09 and received it last week. I am from the Netherlands...
I like the design and the display is also good. Some functions I will probably never use but in general a nice smartwatch.
I got mine for 28 euros and for that it is not bad.
Only problem is the software for the smartphone. The software you can download by scanning the QR code is Chinese.
Can not get that to work.
I have tried several app but I finally ended up with an app called RWATCH.
That one connects to the smartwatch, you can do all things with sms messages.
One thing is the app crashes to often. That is a pitty so I hope they will increase stability.
Secondly the health control in the smartphone RWATCH app does not seem to work.
Maybe I do something wrong or I just have to wait for an update of the app.
If the app runs it is a good tool.
Hopefully I will find some other software which will run smoothly on the smartphone.
Oh and I have a Samsung Note 4 running Lollipop nowadays.
for me the app downloaded to the barre code work perfectly

I know this is a little old, so hopefully you figured it out, but go here http://www.fundo.cc/other/download/FunDoAPP/
that's the qr code site. download the one labeled "BTNotifications Android". that's the one that works with the dz09.
Thank you thedarkharlequin for posting the proper link for us all above. I have had my DZ09 for just over 1 week. I had many issues with the original download wich is provided to you through the QR code located on the watch. After a day of fighting with it crashing all the time I looked to the app store on my SGH-I337M and saw a lot of promising looking apps that were all claiming to do the job. First I tried the BT Notifications like the watch said. Though it was an upgraded version it worked just as well as the first. I then tried other apps that claimed to work with the watch. Same story. Found an app called SmartWear which did the job for the notifications but left all the other capabilities in the dirt. Once I tried the link above I have had all functions and capabilities working 100%
Thanks thedarkharlequin - worked for me too.

Me 3, my DZ09 just arrived to Denmark from China after 6½ weeks of waiting, so plenty of time to bookmark your post, just love it, thank you SO much thedarkharlequin! :good:
BTW couldn't even get the darned bar-code to work (several QR-apps), maybe I turned off to much Google spy on my phone? Anyway the parring works like a charm with this app, only my DZ09 doesn't have the cool watch-faces and animations I've seen on videos so next step is another firmware, just hope my watch isn't a fake one..

Year, I thought I had found one just waiting for me (I did, her name is Berit, but that's a whole other story), but that was for MTK6250, ours are MTK6260A as far as I know, so didn't apply at all.. :silly: The tool provided in the download might work for us however, if anyone
ANYONE??
could find a nice firmware or even somebody who have the nice firmware in his/her DZ09 and knows how to scratch it out for share (I don't know that stuff)..
This is the site I found (and maybe so did some of you) http://chinagadgetsreviews.blogspot.dk/2014/08/mtk6250-bluetooth-154-lcd-watch.html Still not for us mind you, but if one of them brilliant nerds in here is watching, please help us! :fingers-crossed: ​
For you guys who have had there watches for a while can you answer me a couple of questions.
When the phone and watched are synced I like that you can see who is calling but I want to be able to answer my phone to speak and not talk through the watch! Even when I make a call on the phone while paired to the watch it comes out of thr watch and not the phone.
While using Google music I want to be able to skip songs etc thr only way this can be done is if the music comes out of thr watch but not when it comes out of the phone.
Thanks
Should have a look, I think this is what we've been looking for.

Chip is the same, and I think the specs. are similar enough for the firmware to work on our DZ09s (but what do I know(?)), unfortunately both links are down, but I see the watch here in XDA, possible with firmware, haven't got time for a closer look today (tonight DK time), but will look into that tomorrow!
Edit nov. 11,
OK folks, I am very short of time today, but would someone please take a look at this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/smartwatch/other-smartwatches/ai-watch-z20-mtk6260a-t2957013 and this site http://forum.android.com.pl/topic/202745-aiwatch-z20/ ? I think they may be our people although I somehow doubt the firmware mentioned has the fun/cool stuff we are looking for.

I checked the site and do what I'd had to do and my watch died so I used my guaranty now they repaired my watch
What I discovered is that we have a clone watch from u10 due to I found two types of firmware of the same watch but different type.
Our model is Zd09 no other so be careful cause you can install firmwares and they run buy your watch may be died or the screen can not work
batterry
batt damn , just bought and using about 3 hours, WEAK.
Can someone tell me if this watch is capable of sending/receiving text messages that come to your phone? I've been reading mixed messages on the net. I'm not talking about texts to the phone's own phone number.
Hey, I’ve got my hands on a DZ09 with exactly the cool animations, transition modes and watch-faces I believe quite a few of us are were looking for, but only for borrow. Does anybody know how to copy the firmware, so that we can work on getting it into our watches?

It most certainly can receive (via BlueTooth) messages sent to the pocket phone, it also receives emails sent to the pocket, and sometimes even (but not all) Skype messages. And you can browse text messages in your pocket as well as contacts and call records right on your wrist. I don't know about writing text messages and sending them through BT, haven't tried that because the keyboard/handwriting doesn't support Danish letters "æ, ø and å", but I suppose it is possible, only it's a very small screen for the purpose, don't think you would do that much as it is far more comfortable to use your pocket phone for writing.

Finally!
But why some devices aren't supported (for example my mi 6 with AospExtended ROM)?
I've been using Join App for this and more, can you elaborate why I may want to switch to your app?
on linux distributions you also have another choice.

Hi
Thanks for your reply.
It should be supported, we don't restrict any devices.
Can you elaborate how it is not supported? Does it show up in Play Store or does it simply not mirror your notifications?
If you could provide us with some more info, we would like to see if we can resolve the issue.
The only restrictions the app has is it needs to have a Google account on the phone and Play Services.
We hope to hear from you.
Thanks.

Hi
Thanks for your question.
Right of the bat the difference with Bridge is that it's less than half the price.
Bridge also has an non-cluttered UI so you'll be up and running in minutes.
Also it's very battery & resource friendly.
In fact it uses so little battery that it doesn't even show up on my list of apps using battery under Android settings.
Bridge used 0.12 mAh on my phone, which is insignificant.
I've attached a screenshot so you can see for yourself.
Our mirrored notifications are also custom designed which gives you an easy overview.
Even if you have more notifications in your statusbar, than Android itself can show, our custom design lets you see all of them, thus bypassing the restriction other similar apps have.
And of course it has the usual option to Whitelist apps, get notified when one of your devices is charged and so on.
You can try it and let us know what you think

It looks like a decent Pushbullet replacement and I'd go for it if there was a Chrome extension/website functionality. I'm in a Chrome browser on a PC or Chromebook far more than on another Android device.

Ok, solved: for some reason my device wasn't listed in the playstore so the app was showing as not compatible.
Will you plan to give any discount for the upcoming black friday?
I've installed on 3 devices and I have select the app that I want the notifications from in the whitelist but I keep receiving notifications from every app.
There is a way to make a device just ricive notifications from the others and not send it?

Hi
You have to only select the devices you want to receive mirrored notifications on.
This means if you only want to receive it on one device, only select that device under the main screen.
If you look at the attached screenshot as an example, only "Personal Phone" will receive mirrored notification.
The other two devices will be ignored.'
Hope this helps, if not don't hesitate to write back.

Sorry but it's not clear to me, if I want to receive the phone notifications on my other 2 devices (tablet and android car audio) but I don't want to receive any notifications on my phone from the other 2, is that possible?
The apps selected on the withe list are the one able to send the notifications?

Yes it is possible.
You will have to only check your tablet and car audio in the main screen of Bridge (the start screen when you open Bridge).
You phone must not be checked.
So only two devices must be selected.
If you have selected no apps under Whitelist, all apps will send notifications.
If you check one of more apps, only the selected apps will send notifications.
Hope this helps
