Alright, so I had a series of SMS messages this morning, I was connected to Tablet Talk, but I was in the other room so I responded via my phone.

Now I know that the messages wont sync over while connected. I opened up the Tablet Talk app on my Phone and NONE of my sent messages were in there. So even if I did disconnect and reconnect to sync it would never have it made to the tablet as they didnt show up in the app.

If disconnected via the app and tablet and I send a message on the phone sent messages show up in the app.

This app works great when the right setup is there, I would LOVE for this to be able to sync messages when connected.

Aaron,

I may have solved the DroidMessenger / Tablettalk non-compatibility of contacts issue.

DroidMessenger (lite) only allows a small percentage of your contacts to appear on your online(PC web page) address/ contact list. Only the pro app gives you the full address book from your mobile.

Once you add an "unknown" contact, which exists on your phone/gmail, it sends it out as a "?".

In other words, not Tablettalk's fault!
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] andri2805:
Yup, but i think cloud storage should be on a User-Defined basis,

otherwise you'll end up like that other,less useful app that's similar to Tablettalk

but reroutes to DropBox for EVERY SMS/MMS. Annoying!
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] apDroid:
It is always great to hear something is not Tablet Talk's fault :D

By cloud storage I meant backing up all SMS. But first the option to sync all messages from phone via WiFi/Bluetooth needs to be done before cloud backup is seriously looked into.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] apDroid:
Once again this was intended functionality :o

Had your phone been disconnected when sending all those messages then they would have appeared with a "*" before their statuses and upon reconnection, synced to the tablet.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] n99hockey:
Yup, and the three legged squirrel crosses the finishline (me), took me a while to figure it out, I understood but wasn't comprehending if that makes any sense.

Still would love the ability to have it work when connected as well.

Thanks.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] apDroid:
Haha no worries, the fact that it does not sync sent messages from phone while connected has been a constant source of confusion and "bug" reports lately :) It is definitely something that needs to be done.

The "protocol" used between the tablet and phone is being completely overhauled again (the first time was to make the "disconnected" sync reliable, bug free, and more user friendly). It will make syncing full SMS history possible and then hopefully allow stable MMS functionality. As a side effect it will also add syncing of sent messages while connected.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] n99hockey:
Brilliant, can't wait!
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] LAYGO:
Seems like a lot of different number formats were missed. Any idea when the fix for using period separators will be pushed?

987.654.3210 doesn't work for me.

(I've already emailed you about this, but I'm just finding this thread.)
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] andri2805:
wow, good luck!

Again, the idea of being able to sort out SMS/MMS via Tablettalk is highly appealing. All these "pc-suite" bull is highly inconvenient, slow and usually involves cables.

If you somehow manage to do it,I will not only gladly eat my hat, I'll eat yours as well.

You surely must be coveted by the big boys now. I mean, it took you to come up with this versus all the manufacturers, who've been doing this for years. Brilliant effort.

I think with added features Tablettalk could be an enterprise/ personal powerhouse. Olivetti and Cisco (to a smaller extent HP and RIM) have all released a "broader-scale" Tablettalk-style functionality, i.e smartphone/ tablet interfaces that sync messages, emails, data,etc.

Tablettalk's major advantage, being Android-based, is that all the other connectivity sync options are sorted by Google, thus ApDroid only needs to focus on SMS/MMS/SNS.

I for one hate the Google SMS clutter, I'd love to get rid of it on my mobile yet have a spare copy on my tablet, as well as the ability to sort/ search/ archive said messages on my tablet whilst keeping my humble phone clutter free and snappy.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] apDroid:
It's fixed, I just sent it to Motempo this morning for final testing and was going to send to Andri, too, as soon as I get home. I like a few people to use for a day before releasing in case there is anything wrong.

Edit: nevermind, I wasn't thinking. I have your email, no need to PM.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] hotsync100:
Hi, i've been using the beta, and I think this app is a brilliant idea and I would like to buy it. But before that, I would like to know 2 things:

1. Would your app be fully supported for 7" Tabs? ( Galaxy Tab) When I try to buy it in market shows a Error : "An error occurred. Please try again"

2. Has the paid version any UI improvement for 7" tabs? .. Actually (the beta) does not fit well on screen.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] BMWPower06:
Can you please help no matter what I do, I can't connect via wifi?? I have a galaxy tab 10.1 and a droid incredible running synergy Rom.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] andri2805:
the paid, newer app looks GREAT on the 7" tab (I run an Archos A70s), in fact much improvements (better sync,improved timeline, better UI, stability,fonts,emoticons,etc) were made and is most definitely worth the 3 bucks.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] BMWPower06:
So I finally got it up and running on wifi. I had to do the manual IP address configuration. Is there any disadvantage to doing this? Will the app still automatically connect everytime? I was under the impression that my phone gets a new IP address everytime it connects/disconnects from my wifi router.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] apDroid:
If you try it and don't like, all you have to do is send me an email for a refund :)

Hmmm, so it connects over WiFi but can't discover the phone? It sounds like your router blocks certain types of communication over whichever port you're using. Did you try port 8080 instead of 4040?

How the IP address changes is dependent on your router's configuration. Mine, for instance, doesn't expire IP address until after 24 (or maybe even 48, I'd have to check) hours have passed without said device connecting to the network. I believe this is default for routers marketed for home networks.

Unless your phone's assigned IP address changes, you don't have to re-enter anything. There is however an issue for people who frequently change between networks (e.g. at work and at home), and so there will be an option to have the tablet remember multiple IP's.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] rmcsc:
Got it to test it out. I used to use SyncSMS but the developer seems to have let it die. It's really sad when that happens to an app you constantly use that still has some bugs to kill.

Liking yours up to now (although I haven't really been able to test it for long). I have to say, I was preparing myself to make an app to notify my tablet of phone calls but I see you added it here. Congrats.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] rmcsc:
OK, so I sat down to use it a bit now. Question: is there any setting I'm missing where the keyboard won't auto-hide after I send a message or is this not currently available?

If not, I'd like to add is as a request.

By the way:

HTC T-Mobile G2 running latest stock, albeit rooted, Gingerbread 2.3.4

Motorola Xoom WiFi Wingray MZ604, 3.2.1, root.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] apDroid:
Thank you...I can't comment on SyncSMS but what I can tell you is that Tablet Talk is here to stay and will only get better.

It's crazy you mention this, because just yesterday I thinking the same thing. On the phone's default SMS app the keyboard does not auto hide after sending a text. I'll make it the default behavior and add an option for the current behavior (it's rather trivial to implement).
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] con247:
Any chance on the iPad counterpart? I would love to send texts from my phone number via iPad.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] apDroid:
Is it possible: 100% yes. iOS does not allow apps to send SMS without any user interaction, so Tablet Talk is not possible for the iPhone. But it is possible to make Tablet Talk for an iPad to use in conjunction with an Android phone.

Would I like to do it: Yes. I personally do not own an iPhone or iPad (no "fanboy," just never have been an Apple user). But I know several people who do. And at the end of this year I am going to be working with an iOS developer to bring his apps to Android and collaborate on cross platform apps in the future.

Will it happen: Most likely not. I don't see Apple approving an iPad app that requires an Android phone to function. The substantial time required to port it to the iPad does not justify the tremendous risk. The aforementioned iOS developer thinks it is a great idea, but he can't justify the risk either. :(
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] apDroid:
The next version, which is undergoing testing and its rough edges being polished, has quick reply popup windows and a few other small things. Before it is finished within the next week, does anyone have any small feature requests to bundle with it?

An example of a small feature request: an option for the keyboard not to close after sending a message (this is already done and will be in the next version).

Let me know!

Thanks
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] hellalucard:
Maybe a multi IP setting for different networks be great.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] n99hockey:
Id like to see the screen stay on longer once a text is received. By the time I reach for it the screen has shut off and I have to turn it back on and unlock. I dont believe there is a setting for that yet.

I suppose with the quick reply option the screen would stay on longer, either way, something I have been noticing.

Thanks!
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] apDroid:
It's definitely something many people want, but I am not sure it could be finished in time due to the work involved in creating a new UX for connecting via WiFi. I'll give it #1 priority as soon as the pending version with popup windows is published.

Done :D It can be adjusted in settings.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] n99hockey:
Awesome!

Cant wait for the update
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] galt:
OMG, the pop-up is slick, useful, sexy, and AWESOME! I had stopped using this because it was a pain to launch and connect the devices over wifi, I'm back on board! Well done!
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] n99hockey:
Pop ups look great!!

Two questions/suggestions...

1. The new text notification icon in the world status bar should go away with either a reply or X-ing out the pop up

2. Figured out #2....

Thanks!!
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] apDroid:
Haha thank you. Don't forget about the widget--it literally takes a single click to connect.

It should go away after responding, does it not on your tablet?

I couldn't decide what to do when X-ing out and decided to follow suit of GoSMS. Nonetheless, having an option to close notifications when closing the popup window should be added. After having used the popups for several days now, it is something that I personally would prefer.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] n99hockey:
Honestly I didn't think it did, but now that I think about it, it could have gone away after responding but I also X-ed out a lot and they could have still been the ones I have seen in the tray. Either way, an option to remove that tray notification on X-out and reply would be awesome!

Thanks!
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] galt:
Oh, I didn't know about the widget.... the widgets make this perfect! Now its just a tap on each device and done! Very well done sir.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] homerunbm33:
Awesome App!

First off this app is awesome! I spent a long time looking for an app like this. I have a couple requests if possible though.

When I receive a text that is longer than 160 characters tablet talk splits the text into multiple bubbles. Is it possible to have it not do this?

Would it be possible to highlight the contact you are currently texting. I realize it has the name at the top but having the contact name highlighted would be nice too.

Are there any plans for the UI? Animations?

I have my contacts synced with facebook so I can have their pictures but tablet talk doesn't seem to recognize this. Any idea why not?

Again thank you!
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] rmcsc:
I believe this would be the phone's "fault". Messages longer than max SMS characters are split by themselves. The phones are the ones that jumble them up into one single message. In older phones, you'd receive multiple messages, as with Tablet Talk.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] homerunbm33:
On my phone is comes in just fine. Take a look at the screen shots.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] andri2805:
I have noticed that if the sendee is using an older mobile phone (that doesn't support >160 characters/SMS) this shows up as multiple texts on Tablettalk. Try using a dumbphone to long-text Tablettalk and you'll get what I mean. As you're typing >160, an SMS 2,then SMS 3 will show up on your phones' typing box. Modern mobiles (after SonyEricsson T610) have the "extended SMS" feature which stitches texts >160, but in reality is actually sending multiple texts,in order,simultaneously.

Older (as in <v1.0.0) Tablettalk sporadically doesn't even show the characters after the 160.

I actually informed Aaron some time ago and thought it was rectified after Market v1.0.0 but I may be incorrect.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] apDroid:
Some good news: the reason behind Bluetooth causing some Xoom's and Thrive's to crash has finally been discovered.

1. This is something that needs to be fixed :)

2. Perhaps, will look into it.

3. Layout is going to be improved to be more "Honeycomb"-like, including modern settings and action bar.

4. No idea, will check it out!
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] apDroid:
Regardless, it is something that can and needs to be fixed within Tablet Talk. ;)
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] finnsonc:
Just thought I would throw in a idea/request of sorts and if there's something that I'm asking that's already there just let me know. I was wondering if there could be a button added to the widget to quickly switch between wifi and bluetooth since I like to be able to use wifi at home but obviously not at school. Also if there was an option on the tablet widget to quickly turn off and on the popups I think that would be great. They're nice to have but annoying during class since I pretty much use my tablet for everything. Other than that I do really like your app, works great for me

And I haven't read all 30 pages of posts so if it's been suggested before well... oh well
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] rmcsc:
Exactly what I meant. Phones join all the messages together.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] n99hockey:
Did this app die!?

I sure hope not....
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Mr Bigs:
I certainly hope not because I just bought it.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] homerunbm33:
I was wondering the same thing. Been quiet around here. Holiday break?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] blcklab:
Hope not. I use it everyday fwiw
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] obscenum:
Hi!

I am quite regulary in contact with the developer, and last time I heard he was VERY busy with other comitments.

So as far as I know its no reason to fear the death of Tablet Talk!

:-)

Cheers

[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] apDroid:
Dear all,

I am very sorry for disappearing here. The app is certainly not dead! I will be working full time, around the clock, on Tablet Talk in December so you can expect more features and UI enhancements.

I also MIGHT have another developer on board who will help get a PC version out, but no promises yet ;) The app has become more and more complex, so it is about time to find an extra pair of hands to get all of these features out in a timely manner.

What you are asking for is 100% possible and is added to the list. It made me laugh knowing that you use the app during class :D I know how boring class can be
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] n99hockey:
Glad to hear it is still alive and kicking!!

Thanks!
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Mr Bigs:
I was thinking more on the lines of the app automatically switching to wifi from bluetooth in a recognized area. I would also like to see speaker phone functionality on the tablet. This app is most useful when my phone is charging in another room and I can reply to texts,I would also like to answer calls with my bluetooth headset which is paired to my tablet and phone or via the speaker and mic on the tablet itself. I'm using an HTZ Rezound and HTC Flyer.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] apDroid:
I see...eventually I can look into tasker to see what would be necessary on Tablet Talk's part to work with it.

Please PM or email me about the other thing ;)
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] apDroid:
New UI being worked on...please feel free to let me know what you like, don't like, or would like to have changed (ignore white icon next to About settings and excessive action bar items).
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] homerunbm33:
I can't tell by the picture if this is fixed but could you make it so sent and received messages have a maximum width? I rather have a really tall bubble than a really wide one.

In the options menu I noticed there's an arrow to showing you which option you selected. Could you add this for messages too?

And just to be really picky (you did ask) could you add a shine(gloss) look to the bubbles?

Thanks a lot! Can't wait for the updates
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] rmcsc:
I'm not a fan of having too many gradients on screen...
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] n1nj4dude:
I would like if the status bar icon was smaller
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] andri2805:
Seasonal greetings, Aaron!

This new UI looks great, I just think perhaps the "conversation" UI looks slightly cluttered, maybe tweaking font sizes/ ratios would help. "Menu" screens (the light one) looks great. Otherwise, your dedication to your app remains stellar. Man-love ahoy!
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] razorseal:
so handcent won't let it sync messages?

I wish this was mentioned in the app market before I bought it...

unless I'm doing something wrong?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] homerunbm33:
I'm using handcent and receive my message just fine.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] apDroid:
Thank you everyone for the input--it has been duly noted.

Even though we spoke through email, I'll answer here, too, in case anyone else has this problem:

Some third party SMS apps such as Handcent and Go SMS can prevent Tablet Talk from receiving messages. If you are not receiving text messages in Tablet Talk, then please check the settings of the SMS app installed on your phone. For example:

Handcent users: Settings->Application Settings->Default Messaging application: set to "Disable".

Go SMS users: Settings->Receive Settings->Disable other message notification: uncheck

After adjusting the 3rd party app's settings, please disable notifications in the phone's stock SMS app in order to prevent double notifications.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] klept0:
Doesnt work for me...hangs at connecting...

Edit #1: I got it to work...looks pretty nice! Seems like it doesnt want to stay connected when sending...

Edit #2: Make sure you give permissions to the app and it will send without issue!
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] homerunbm33:
I will be getting the galaxy nexus once they actually decide to release the phone. Will this app work with 4.0 (ice cream sandwich)?

Thanks
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] andri2805:
Shouldn't be a problem. TT works great on Android 2.0-3.2. Any issues and Aaron would solve it literally in moment. Classy dev,that fella!

On another note, Galaxy Nexus S vs Droid X3 (Moto XT928). You might want to wait for this beast of a phone from Googerola. 4.5in HD screen, 1.4GHz dual core, 1GB RAM, 16GB, f2.2 13MP camera and 2MP video cam. Vanilla 4.1. Scheduled February 2012.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] homerunbm33:
Is this phone being released in the US on Verizon?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] andri2805:
according to sources, yes, as the VZW Droid X3.

This phone is to be marketed as the "multimedia powerhouse". Currently undergoing ICS testing/ battery configurations. It looks future proof as well due to the fact that even the Asus eeePad TF Prime only has 1Gb RAM and that 4core processors are truly unnecessary/ battery-hogs/ over rated. See how a good single core SOC running 1.2Ghz device actually compares to a dual core device programmed badly does. (i.e your Droid X2 or a Samsung Galaxy S versus an Acer iconia a100. Web browsing speeds aren't much slower and apps open just as quick.) Android phone manufacturers haven't matured/innovated enough so they rely on spec instead of identity+capabilities, like how the digital camera manufacturers keep adding useless megapixels instead of making the actual sensor better! And consumers lap it up.

Does anyone use a prepaid,3rd party SNS/SMS service like fish text,clickatell, etc? One that uses an external messaging app like "XLsms" ?

Any findings on TT compatibility issues?

These usually go through certain servers, was wondering if anyone had problems.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] homerunbm33:
My fault I missed the part where you said x3. I'm surprised to hear it will be vanilla 4.1. Thanks for the info.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] apDroid:
And thankfully so....

Anyways, two users have reported that the app works fine on the Galaxy Nexus.

If the phone OS doesn't treat them as "SMS" then AFAIK there shouldn't be any compatibility issues

ive read like 10 pages and i have not fond the answer to my question so im going to ask now dont all of you jump down my neck for not reading every single thing as the 30 pages are all wonkey with quotes and all.

So here is my question I want to know if i can have the Kindle connected to the hotspot feat and be surfing the internet or what ever and then get a test message and have it show up on the kindle and be able to respond on the tablet leaving my phone in my pocket while on mass transit. with out the need outside internet or router all self contanied now there is no bluetooth on the kindle fire(just an fyi).

[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] apDroid:
Hey I replied to your email; also, someone tried Tablet Talk and reported that the Fire disconnects WiFi when the screen turns off. But with the CM kernel it probably wouldn't be an issue. (Edit: but the app doesn't work over hotspots...maybe in the future)
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] k3v00:
Well thanks for the fast response. To bad it was not good news but hey there's a hope that it might work in the near future. Again thanks.
