Yikes, that's not good--hopefully crash reports were sent so I can check it out. I am not sure why there is an issue with BT and the tablet's screen turning off on stock firmware. So if you receive a text and the tablet's screen is off, you are not notified?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] drivenapollo:
Correct. I haven't had it happen since I wrote last, but then I haven't turned the screen off since bbecause I'm using your app non stop. Lol ok just to check before I wrote I just sent myself 6 messages and they all showed up on the tablet with the screen off. Screen kept turning on when I got a message this time. :-)

Edit: since my 1rst post I have sent/received about 100 messages total and have not had any issues since.

I was having connection problems. Even had 2 reboot on the tablet side. The way I got it to connect was activate the app on both phone and tablet. On the tablet side I click on connect. That's done by clicking the red circle icon it opens a menu choose connect. On the the phone side I click on enable discovery. I hope this helps. If it does don't be shy with the thank button. :)

-Tablet-Samsung 10.1 32GB HC 3.1 Stock P7510UEKME

-Phone- Samsung Captivate CM7 GB 2.3.5 Nightly build 8/23/11

-Bluetooth Only

Works great on bluetooth.

I notice when I enable background sync on my phone, my tablet will not connect. other than that, Great app! Would be nice if the app can sync previous message from phone.

Definitely an app that is well worth purchasing!

Edit: just notice for incoming calls with blocked or unknown numbers will not get notified and when phone is picked up, tablet still rings.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] drivenapollo:
So after using all night it has closed on me twice. All I did was hit the backspace key both times. Wasn't a fc it just shut down and disconnected. Nothing rebooted, just started it back up and clicked connect and all worked well. Little inconvenience for this awesome app. Have sent / received almost 400 messages now and that's the only problem other than setup issues I've had. Great job so far!

Edit: so it closed again on me. It did it when I sent and it received at the same time. Possibly the problem? Also I have 1 chat that is at 105 messages and it wont show any new ones I send or receive since the last shut down. Is there a limit for the program? I closed out that conversation and they are showing up again.

I am having reboot trying to connect. What I tried yesterday didnt work. The reboot is on the tablet side. :confused:
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] apDroid:
I am going away this weekend and will be back Sunday evening, so until then keep these bug reports coming! Thanks

I am relieved to hear it is working! Thank you

Thanks! The sync mode is only for when your phone and tablet are not connected. It keeps your conversations up to date on your tablet the next time you connect the devices.

Thank you for bringing those caller ID bugs to my attention--I will definitely fix those.

Thank you for bringing these issues to my attention. It is only supposed to display 100 messages per conversation for performance reasons. But it should not be acting how you describe. I will look into the problem.

Would you be willing to use logcat or an app to gather logs before the sudden exit closes? No crash report has been generated for this.

Would you be willing to use logcat or an app to gather logs before the reboot happens? No crash report has been generated for this.

Phone: Verizon - Samsung Droid Charge Running GummyCharged GBE 2.3c

Tablet: Asus EeePad Transformer TF-101 16gb Running Revolver 2.0

Apps running fine on both devices without a hitch, freakish how they recieve texts at the same time on bluetooth. Only problem I am noticing is the UI overlays text ontop of eachother in the left pane when tablet is placed in portrait mode...

Could think of a few interface tweaks to reccommend... But I will wait to see how good communication between developer/user is :D

Great work so far, I have been waiting for something like this to emerge, and personally I think you should be hired by google to put this straight into the android os as default functionality. Not only that, but create more synergy between gingerbread/froyo os and honeycomb (more so gingerbread or ICS than froyo)
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] andri2805:
oi!

some of us LOVE our Frozen Yoghurt. Much less performance needed to stay healthy in comparison to fatty stuff like ICE CREAM SANDWICHES. Heheh, Aaron surely knows 90% of Android tablets run 2.2 AND BELOW. Thanks a bunch, cheap Chinese KIRFs! Also, a lightweight set of requirements mean that most Android users are supported as well as being lighter on even a 2 core tablet once the inevitable happens,i.e we fill up our tabs with too much crap.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] martyr2k6:
Not saying that older versions of Android aren't deserving of this awesome app, just least likely to have it internally implemented if our boy here were to get picked up by google. I think with ambition like this, it's possible. :)
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] apDroid:
Thank you, I would love to work for Google...do me a favor and write them a letter ;)

I am very interested in hearing your UI suggestions. The overlapping will be fixed soon. I am out of town until tomorrow (Sunday)

Don't worry, pre-honeycomb tablets will always be supported. BTW, you are the official representative/advocate for all pre-honeycomb devices :D
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] andri2805:
Hahaha! At least i'm not one of those weirdos porting browsers into scientific calculators! (no offense)

Aaron, your app deserves to be on more devices. So yes, i remain Patron Saint of old-school OS'.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] gravewormx:
I have had this problem happen to me too, a couple of times per day (since I use it to text all day). Haven't been able to see a pattern, but if I notice what's causing it I'll definitely let you know :)

This Has also happen to me, It just does a reboot on the tablet side. No warning, no fc, nothing.

Yes, I tried reinstalling the old version; First I forced closed the app, clear data, and uninstalled both on tablet and phone, To make sure it was clear correctly. Then installed the old version and unfortunately it didn't solve my issue. So i went back to the new version, it kinda sucks having to turn on my phone screen every time i want to send a text, but I love the app so much I'm willing to compromise :)

And thanks, I really do appreciate that you try looking into the users suggestions.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] NoHousePhone:
I did a fresh install still got the reboot. Now to connect what I did was first hit connect on the phone side then on the tablet side. I have bluetooth on before doing that.let me know if that helps.

Now I am missing numbers. If start typing the persons name. It use to give me numbers to choose from. It was happening for only one contact that had two mobile. I use to be able to chose my girls mobile number now her FAX number is showing up instead of any #.

I am hoping that when we get the hc 3.2 update that it will resolve some of these issues. The Acer is schedule to get it on September 10. It was suppose to be the 25th of this month.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] andri2805:
hhmm..i also noticed some missing numbers from Tablettalk's contact panel. Some phone contacts just won't show up in Tablettalk contact list no matter how I set it up/reset. The same contacts that appear fine on my car's Bluetooth connection.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Sushibagel:
Just an fyi for everyone if you are having random bluetooth disconnects as I was it seems to resolve it by converting it to a system application using Titanium Backup. I think it was being killed by my os because I'm on an og Droid and it doesn't have a lot of memory.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] NoHousePhone:
Did you convert it a system app in the phone or tablet or both?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] andri2805:
even when using a combo with tons of RAM (MOTO Atrix 1Gb RAM,2.3 + MOTO MZ602 Xoom 1gb RAM,3.1) it still has random DC's. 99.9% of people won't bother turning it into a system app.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] andri2805:
also 256Mb of RAM was high end on a laptop 7yrs ago. I seem to recall us all chatting just fine on IRC while having Netscape open!
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Sushibagel:
Just the phone. You guys are correct that the average user won't bother doing it but I'm just saying that it helps if you're like me and don't want to reconnect constantly.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] apDroid:
Are you using an automated task killer? The service runs as a foreground service on the phone (hence the notification icon) and technically should not be killed (then restarted) unless the memory is critically low. It also only uses 4~5mb of memory, something which I will work on reducing as much as possible.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Sushibagel:
No, no task killer what so ever. Just the built in task manager for Gingerbread. I'm currently running CM 7.1.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] apDroid:
That's good, so now we need to figure out whether the disconnects are from the OS restarting the service.

After a random disconnect, go to settings->applications->running services

You should see "ServicePhone" with the Tablet Talk icon. There will also be a timer that is increasing by the second. When the system kills then restarts a service, this timer will reset to 0. So if this value is close to 0, then the service has indeed been restarted recently.

Are these disconnects on Bluetooth, WiFi, or both?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Sushibagel:
Thanks for the feedback, I will do that on my next disconnect and update you. The disconnects are on Bluetooth.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Sushibagel:
Okay just had a disconnect when I checked the running services it read 3:58:42 i didn't reconnect right away but as I looked it actually then reset to 0.

New features:

-Tablet UI: buttons for composing a new message and settings added back

-Tablet UI: conversation list now uses truncated date format and does not overlap text

-Tablet Talk is now available as an option for sharing items such as web sites and map locations

-Setting to enable/disable MMS notifications

-Information added in Help for making Tablet Talk compatible with third party SMS apps such as Handcent and Go SMS

-The first time Tablet Talk is launched on phone, it detects and notifies the user of potentially conflicting SMS apps such as Handcent and Go SMS

Bug fixes:

-Private/unknown numbers now work with caller ID

-Conversations with over 100 messages no longer displayed incorrectly

-Various other fixes
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] NoHousePhone:
it looks good. I still get the one choice of number when I start to type the contacts name with multiple numbers strange. It might be the way its saved ( using dashes or no dashes I don't know). I am going to wait for the 3.2 update to see if it fixes it. I am running 3.1 right now. A few updates back I didn't have that issue.

I have an idea. Is it possible to download the mms on the tablet side? When you get the notification maybe have the option to click to transfer to tablet. I figure we already connected via Bluetooth. Also have a widget to connect.

Edit:

Also being able to choose the number directly from the contacts on the tablet without using the app.

I use contact chooser and scroll to the contact that way all the numbers are available.

I am liking the share option. Very cool feature always wanted to be able to do that.

Sorry for the long post and edit.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] apDroid:
Quick update: just received a crash report. Fixed a FC someone experienced on his or her phone when opening the app.

Thank you. No need to apologize, you are always very helpful with your feedback. Sorry I forgot to respond to you and Andri about the contact numbers not showing.

Warning: long and confusing sentence ahead. What I have discovered is that contact numbers which were not manually added to an existing contact saved to your gmail account will not show up when starting to type a name/number into the text box. Contact data which has been aggregated from multiple sources does not like to appear. Therefore, you can manually add each number to the contact saved to your gmail account in order for it to be available in the drop down list.

Also, if you ever cannot find a number when typing in a name/number, simply use the "Contact chooser." This launches the standard Android activity for selecting a contact, and should have every number associated with every contact.

Lastly, remember that if you have multiple gmail accounts sync their contacts on your phone but not your tablet, then the contacts likely will not appear on your Tablet.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] CyberBlaster:
Great Job, been running it for a couple days, I think it has only missed one message. I laugh every time I get a message and I hear the alert sound on my tablet before my phone.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] apDroid:
So if I understand you correctly, it did not disconnect from the service restarting?

Haha thank you that is great to hear. Don't forget you can mute notification sounds on your phone using the button on the top left corner (as a word of caution, it will also mute notification sounds for things like emails, but if your gmail account is on your tablet, too, then it won't matter).
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Sushibagel:
Sorry proofreading FAIL lol anyway I guess the answer to your question is yes... Initially it did not disconnect from restarting service however the service later did restart while I was checking what the service run time was.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] apDroid:
Have you tried a stock ROM/kernel on your phone with Tablet Talk? I suspect the Bluetooth issues you are having--particularly messages not being sent unless phone's screen is on--will be nonexistent.

I wish I knew why the BT is randomly disconnecting. I regularly leave mine running all night with BT or WiFi to see if it ever disconnects and it has not yet.

Would you be willing to send me logs of when a random disconnect happens?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Sushibagel:
I switched back to CM 6.1.2 just minutes ago hoping that may solve the issue since gingerbread was never officially supported on the Droid. However, if I do see a similar issue I will definitely try and send a log.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] gravewormx:
Yes, I tried stock/CM7/Alien (Atrix) same issue. But this new version seems to be a little more stable. Sometimes the messages will go through with the phone screen off other times it won't. I haven't found a pattern yet. But its no big deal, since the app really does work. Don't want to make your life difficult, I know every android phone/ROM is different so I won't ever complain if a little feature doesn't work correctly on my phone.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] NoHousePhone:
I notice that the time that is displayed on incoming text is wrong by 3 hours.

I did get a disconnect. It never reconnected. So because of it I changed the reconnect time to 1 minute.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Sushibagel:
Just an update since switching back to Froyo I've only had disconnect which was when I was wifi tethering. Other than that it's been connected all day and night.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] apDroid:
If the stock ROM has the same issue then it could be an Atrix specific issue. Does anyone else reading this use an Atrix and have this problem?

I am fixing the time issue, another user has reported the same issue.

That is good to know! Thank you for trying the different ROMs and OS versions

Dark Theme Glitch

I noticed with the dark theme on my Xoom (hammerhead 2.1 Rom android 3.2) when replying to a text I can't see what's been put in the text box but it does get filled. The light theme works fine.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] apDroid:
The ROM probably overrides the system styling for font color. I'll add a line of code to make sure the font color to white for you ;)
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Sushibagel:
Cool thanks its actually happening on the light theme as well. Just fyi
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] blcklab:

I believe he is updating today. It should be up later.

I have an Acer too. Mine is stock unrooted waiting for the 3.2 update that's suppose to come out the 10th. Its a cool app that keeps getting better.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] blcklab:
thanks using google voice isn't a bad alternative but sometimes I want to use my main phone number.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] NoHousePhone:
I tried Google voice on the tablet. I agree using your number is much better. I definitely like when I get a phone call and my tablet rings and has the caller I'd of the caller. Wished I could pick it up on the tablet.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] andri2805:
i think Aaron's releasing this app to market today!;)
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] apDroid:
Indeed, more details to follow tomorrow.

[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] baseballfanz:
Quick question, when I initiate an sms from my phone, does that send message get sync to the tablet? So far I can receive and it will sync, but when I send it doesn't sync. When I send from the tablet it sync with the phone.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] brokensafety867:
Wheres a link?

Call me crazy, but i cannot find a link to this app anywhere???? not showing up in market ?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] apDroid:
For unknown reasons, Tablet Talk has not yet appeared in the Market. Google has been contacted and I will post as soon as I get more information.

Correct, when connected, outbound texts from the phone do not sync to the Tablet. This is something that will be reconsidered.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Kippui:
It would be cool if this application could mirror handcent to your tablet with full convos and everything.

Is that planned? I would pay $5 for something like that.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] apDroid:
Do you mean a replica of Handcent on the tablet? Then no, that is not a plan. If you are asking if it has similar features, then yes, for the most part Tablet Talk has all of the features you would expect from an SMS app on your phone. It indeed organizes your conversations like a phone's SMS app.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] andri2805:
Still absolutely no sign of Tablettalk in the Android Market. what would the hold up be? Waiting with baited breath!
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] sgioskos:
Actually I've been waiting a few days for it on the market too since it wasn't available here (Came late to the XDA party on this one). Anyway, instead I bought Textab which is the same banana but via bluetooth. If it aint on the market, why don't you still make tablet talk available here until it gets to market? You only piss off potential paying customers.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] andri2805:
Seems Aaron (apdroid) is really working out the kinks on the latest release, give him a break, he's released at least 6 different builds of Tablettalk since he originally posted the app on the 7th of August! Each version brought it's own improvements hand-in-hand with it's unique bugs. If you ask nicely he may PM you with an older, functional release. Btw, the app was published over 24hr ago, do blame Google!
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] apDroid:
A quick search reveals Tablet Talk is not the only app with this problem. It has not even appeared on the web market. The only logical thing I can think of is that apps which require the permission to send SMS are actually screened to prevent trojans which use your phone to spam. :confused:

You think you're pissed off.....

Anyways, I appreciate everyone's patience. Due to the number of emails I have been getting, I am getting together something for members such as yourself to try out in the mean time
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Lincolnmking:

[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] anthrem:
Bluetooth?

WiFi starts right up, but bluetooth leaves something to be desired. I have tried six ways from Sunday to start it up in Bluetooth connection, with no success. Have restarted both devices, turned bluetooth off and on.... If I am going to pay, both should work easily. It has worked in the past, so I am thinking there is something with Tablet Talk. Would be happy to provide logs or whatever would be helpful!

ETA: I am stupid. Settings issue on my part. AWESOME STILL! Tell me where to send the check...
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] apDroid:
Edit: whoops, I started to write a reply but had to go take care of something. By the time I got back and replied, you had changed your post. I am glad it is working :)

Which version are you using?

When you say it has worked in the past, do you mean that your devices have been paired before and files transferred between them? Was it with the OS's Bluetooth functions or a 3rd party app?

If your devices are already paired, there is one thing to try. Unpair each device from each other. Turn Bluetooth off, then back on. Then try to connect again within Tablet Talk. Just make sure to activate discovery mode on the phone first.

If you do check the logs, look on the tablet for "Service discovery failed". Sometimes the Bluetooth connection will fail repeatedly with this error.

Bluetooth can be frustrating. But once it works, it works great. Let me know what happens.

[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] apDroid:
I have found another developer who is having the exact same issue. Interestingly, he published on 9/3, too. Hopefully one of us will hear back from Google soon with more information.

Edit: some good news: on the phone, you will now be able to mark messages as read. No more "262 new messages" in your phone's SMS app after using Tablet Talk
