SMS2PC API

Introduction

It is with great pleasure that today I am releasing the first public beta of SMS2PC API which is designed to allow developers and hackers to quickly and easily send and receive messages via an Android (and soon to be BlackBerry and WinPhone) device as well as loading contact information and address credentials.

The API is designed in an async like manner allowing you to create a request, forget about it and then easily handle any return to the original request while not having to worry about threads, connections and protocol management. As an example, you can send a message with only a few lines of code and then handle delivery notifications and send notifications when they occur by providing a callback that is fired when a the message's status has changed.

You are free to use the API as you wish. You will be able to do things like send messages from a server to notify of events on the server, you could make an application than can receive commands such as ‘shutdown_pc’ via SMS and then shut down the current PC, run in on embedded systems, create alarm system that notify via SMS of intruder etc!

Features

Current

Send message

Handle Delivery Notifications

Handle Send Notifications

Load Contact Details

Receive incoming message from device.

Loading message list for a contact

Upcoming

MMS Support

Inbox Support

Load advanced contact details

Example of Handling Incoming Messages

As an example to highlight how simple it is to receive new messages when the arrive on device the actual code used is provided below.

class MyHandler implements IMessageReceiveHandler
{
@Override
public void messageReceived(Message message)
{
System.out.println("New message received: " + message.getBody());
}
}

// Create instance of your handler and provide it to the API
MyHandler myMessageHandler = new MyHandler();
sms2pc.setMessageReceiveHandler(myMessageHandler);

Requirements

Current the API is Java based (requiring JRE). We have nearly finished the C# version and the mobile apps for BlackBerry and WinPhone will be available shortly.

Terms of Use

Please be aware that although you are totally free to use the API in any software as you choose (commerial or personal) , the Android/BlackBerry & WinPhone app is currently paid for at around £1.99. Also, if you use SMS2PC API in your software you must provide a mention of this fact in your about/info dialog or help if console application. This may be updated in the future although the price will never increase. If you are an XDA user you can download SMS2PC API for free for Android but must not re-distribute the apk.

Conclusion

Thank you for reading. If you have any questions feel free to email me at geekyscott@gmail.com or PM me.
[Android Software Development] OmarBizreh:
Can't wait until the c# version is done ^_^
[Android Software Development] arrjaytea:
Any chance you plan on fixing the desktop app to work with Lion or Mountain Lion?

It's only $3, but you've got it (literally tried to refund moments later and couldn't), and the app flat out does not work on Mac OSX.

Great work, can you show an example on how to send sms?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] androidboy123:
Hi guys

My samsung galaxy s3 battery is draining freaking fast around 1% for every 3-4 minutes

I tried to reset the battery stats and monitor it using better battery stats and all but there is no wakelocks.

Is there any reason why am i having this trouble?

Is anyone else having the same trouble?

Feel free to share here.

[EDIT]: I m running custom rom jellybean criskelo.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] carrd:
Do you have the Facebook app installed? This has caused issues for several people with it constantly syncing.

As a test either disable fb syncing or uninstall fb and see if that improves you battery.

---------- Post added at 03:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:53 PM ----------

Also do you have GPS or Wifi on constantly or any of the usual battery draining settings. Auto sync will also cause a big battery drain.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Carl.Brand.87:
GPS won't do anything to the battery unless you're using it. If you have the GPS symbol in the notification bar then its being used otherwise its fine to leave it on.

I have set wi-fi settings in the advanced menu to make wi-fi sleep when the phone is so it's not on 100% of the time when i don't need it. Auto sync i turn off. Brightness is down as low as it can be with auto turned off - adjust it manually if your outside. Make sure you've disabled the S Speak Wake up commands on lock screen.

These increased my battery life quite abit.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slaphead20:
Do you take the phone in the bathroom when you shower? That drain sounds very high indeed, possible moisture damage?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] carrd:
Even though GPS isn't used with it switched on it will still use battery so I believe your incorrect there.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] androidboy123:
I didint install any facebook app and my syncing is switched off all the time....

Any idea why?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] carrd:
Are you in a low signal area? I know it's a pain but to be on the safe side I would perform a factory reset. Also In android settings under battery option what does it show is using your battery?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] b-eock:
No, you are incorrect. He is correct. GPS isnt activated unless an app accesses it. The toggle only allows it to be used.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] carrd:
Ok I stand corrected apoligies for that.

Please be aware though if you use the weather widget and its allowed to use GPS, GPS will be used every hour or so to check location (or whatever your refresh period is) so please be aware its not just opening an app. Widgets like weather widget will always be able to use GPS automatically unless Auto Refresh is set to 'None'

I read something about there being a software bug specifically for the s3 a couple of days ago. Just my 2 cents
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] InvisibleNinja98:
How could I make it louder?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] extrem0:
Volume+ does it.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] THEindian:
Press the up volume key.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] estallings15:
Die.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] InvisibleNinja98:
No douches, I'm talking about making it even louder than the limit (Volume all the way up).
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Synthetic.Nightmare:
Volume+ is an app. That guy was actually trying to help you.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] InvisibleNinja98:
My fault and thanks. Im tired after a long day and all. Right now is not a good time for me. -__-
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] THEindian:
Volume+ doesn't really make a difference, or anything I noticed
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] estallings15:
It does on some ROMs. Also, this thread is funny. It actually made me lol, not just exhale a little louder through my nose.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] I2IEAILiiTY:
You're trying too hard. Second thread I've seen you do that. Maybe there's a third.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] extrem0:
For me it works. It depends on what you are using for. It can't change bluetooth volume.

Using poweramp you have to disable "direct volume control".
[HTC Wildfire S] seffparker:
(Preface for noobs : /system and /data are two different partitions. Freeying up /system won't get you more intrenal memory, but /data does. Old apks rest in /system and updated versions placed in /data. You can replace the old apks using newer versions)

I heared Titanium Backup PRO does something like, but you can do this with any File Explorer with ROOT access. Its works 100% for Android Gingerbread 2.3.x , try on other versions.

### Do it on your own risk, I am not responsible for anything ###

1. Update the desired app to the latest version from Google Play Store

2. Open File Manager, Enable ROOT_ACCESS, remount /System as writable

3. Goto /system/app and backup the desired apk to sdcard

4. Goto /data/app and copy updated apk

5. Paste into /System/app

6. Note down the filename of old apk and delete the old apk

7. Rename the new apk into the old filename

8. You may encounter a FORCE CLOSE if the app was running in background

9. The updated apk in /data/app will be removed automatically

10.Restart your device, Done!

I replaced Playstore, Maps, Google Search ect..

Example: For PlayStore, updated apk will be com.android.vending-1.apk, and old apk is vending.apk

Hit thanks it it works, Thanks ;)

Yeah, you can create full backup also (app+app data)

Very useful and free app :D

you can also move apps to system partition to save space on data partition

just select 'convert into system app' in link2sd and then reboot

Video Review

http://youtu.be/qiBW8HfdE2A

Follow Up Video!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fd-sJOMwj8E

Pros:

Very cool, elegant design, and great idea. You'll want to show it off to your friends.

It eliminates wobble problem.

You can talk with the case on.

Volume still controllable through flap.

Adds very little thickness and width.

Very good materials.

Back feels more sturdy.

Issues:

Makes notification light useless when it is closed.

Expensive, at least for the moment.

White case may be more prone to staining.

Other:

I wish the flap, although it sits flush, had some kind of magnetic attachment.

[Galaxy Note II Accessories] FloatingFatMan:
A magnetic closure will screw up the pen functionality big time.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] mdalacu:
Do you think that making a small clean hole where the notification led is, it's feasible?
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] rom3l:
why is this so if i may ask.. i have a flip cover with a small magnetic strip at the side. should i still use it?
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] FloatingFatMan:
Try it and see. Your s-pen won't work within range of the magnetic field.. It's only temporary.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] rom3l:
i just tried it. you're right. but will it have negative effect in the long run? also i'm afraid the small piece of metal that attaches to the magnet might damage my screen. not a good buy i guess.. got it for around $15.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Lucidmike:
I was thinking the same thing this morning. I think if you know materials, have precision and sharp drill bits you can do a clean job. but I am too committed to the love of OEM and unmodified factory design, I don't think I have the heart do it. Also, the whole point is to remove any opening to the glass from dust particles. having a hole there just works against that goal.

Unless you cover the hole with transparent film, tape etc...
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] tamarian:
If you check the reviews here on XDA for the Note 1 version, a couple of us had problems with the flap leather/skin coming off of the support cardboard material after a couple of months. It's really nice and elegant, but the lose skin starts getting in the way. Just something to list in the cons section.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] whmcal:
Yes. Potential peeling of outside cover on OEM case is a worry. I agree that this was a major flaw of original case. Ps. I think it was way more than a couple of people complaining about it. Lots of bad reviews on several sites. Hope Samsung have learned. From a distance though ...this case looks to be of better quality.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Fornowagain:
I dunno, I had one on my S3 both a blue and white. Forget the white, the edge peeled and got really dirty in a day. The same happened to the blue but didn't look so bad, but the edge still peeled and the hinge eventually cracked within a couple of weeks.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] samuelchua:
Am wondering if the front of the cover is waterproof??
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] stephenjason89:
perfect for a day to a week use :) ugly after a month... side peels which sucks big TIME
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] ps2gamer02:
Any other case of this style you guys would recommend?
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] GizmoFreak:
I now have two back covers (with nfc).. thanks to the flip cover I bought today.. :)
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] finalhit:
some reviews from the samsung site about the s3 flip cover say they deteriorate fairly quickly...can you comment on this with regards to the note2 covers?
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] rickm8384:
I have the orange flip cover and now also the black. I bought the black because of a 50% off coupon that I got from Samsung and also because my orange one got incredibly dirty! I'm going to try and clean it today. Not sure how well that will go. I work in a warehouse so my hands get fairly dirty. There are large "finger prints" on the inside of the case from where my hand holds the cover when it is in the open position.

Will let everyone know how cleaning goes today!

Hi Guys.

What is overclock and how to get it.

Wats the use of it.

I am using project X
[HTC Incredible S] zukri90:
Overclock is the process of changing the frequency of the processor to a higher value. The use of it is to make the phone faster (nof sure of this). And of course if you overclock, your phone's battery will die faster. There's undervolting too.

You can get it by using apps like SetCPU from the play store. You also need a kernel with OC support e.g. Redux kernel, xs-ics.
[HTC Incredible S] poondog:
Spot on zukri :)

On a basic level, if dome right it should make the phone more responsive, faster, smoother. It will raise the voltage which raises heat and more voltage is drawn from the battery though

[HTC Incredible S] zukri90:
Geez. This kind of questions are easy to answer. If there is an exam for this, I will get a straight A :D
[HTC One X] ShadowAS1:
Hey xda,

I've got a little issue with my one X

I'm almost sure its just being my fault but I can't find it.

Anyways, i've got many contacts, and I want those synced.

Now i've set facebook to sync ALL contacts. And so did I for skype, but they just don't show up.

For example I have an contact called 'chris'

It's linked with my google contact, the fb contact, and the skype contact.

But it's just not showing up anywhere.

I've set everything to auto-sync, but it doesn't even work when I sync it manually.

I've also got this issue with facebook, whenever I want to upload a photo, and want to tag someone, my facebook contacts just aren't up-to-date.

Doe anyone experience this issue? Or have a solution?

Kind regards,

ShadowAS1

I only use wav or flac music files
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raytraceme:
Even though i have an i9300 (same dac as note 2) i use the vmoda m100's which honestly best out headphones in the $500 range while costing $300. I have siyah kernel so i use the audio tweaks and it is the best mix of bass, mids, and highs you can get from a portable source w/out an amp.

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NZtechfreak:
Using one of several closed cans I have with my Note 2, awaiting a new USB DAC.amp that will work with the Note 2 though - will be getting a Leckterton UHA-6S.MKII and new model Ray Samuels Audio "The Intruder" too (my HeadAmp Pico was working with my US S3, but doesn't with the Note 2 or International S3).

Headphones are usually one of:

Beyerdynamic T5p

Audio Technica W3000ANV

Ultrasone Edition 8

Sometimes use one of my other open-backed headphones when at home with the S3 since these really require amping:

Grado GS1000i

Grado RS1

Audeze LCD-2

(hopefully that is hardcore enough for the OP)
