Cool, thanks Wess. Looking forward top the ui updates
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] jack1984:
Hey bechard. Would it be possible to have a ringtone sound (or any sound other than the notification sound on loop) when the option to notify when being called is checked? I think it'd be very useful, and isn't something that competing apps like mysms tablet have. I sent you an e-mail about it maybe a week ago, but never got a reply.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] bechard:
Re: [App][2.2 - 4.2] Cloud SMS - Send SMS From Your Tablet!

Sorry Jack, I didn't realize I hadn't responded. More likely is that I started looking at it when I read it and forgot to let you know.

I can tell you I have started working on this request. It looks like I did accidentally leave in the new call ringtone setting in the latest update, although it's not fully wired in yet. I do want to implement another suggestion I received which will show a full photo of the caller with the reply and ignore buttons at the bottom.

I hope to have this in place by next weekend.

Thanks again for the suggestion! I guess you can pick your ringtone now for when the feature is updated to use it.

Thanks so much for this app, just bought it yesterday. Switched from tablet talk. No more worrying if I'm walking out of WiFi or Bluetooth range. Also I have had zero problems sending and receiving MMS, even with emoji which freaked tablet talk out.

Oddly, I did just notice a bug. I have delivery reports turned on on my phone(droid RAZR on Verizon with stock jelly bean leak, using stock SMS app) and in the cloudsms app on my tablet(Xoom 4g on vzw running latest cm10.1 nightly). When send a message from my tablet, delivery reports on both devices say delivered. If I send it from my phone, the phone says delivered but the tablet says sending. This is no big deal, because otherwise this is the best dual device SMS program I've ever used.

Thank you!
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] urushiol:
I can confirm this issue.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] jack1984:
Ah! I didn't even notice the addition until I checked the tablet. I assumed the option would have had to be enabled on the phone first. Full photo of the caller is a great idea! For those contacts without photos, though, will the default android picture be replaced with the icon used be the 'People' app? Since it's in-line with the ICS/JB UI as the android is Gingerbread.

Thanks for all the support, I'll be waiting for next week!
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] romeyjdogg:
This app is heads and tails above the rest of them, Wess, thank you.

I see that you're trying to implement the picture, ignore and text on phone calls; that should be a really nice addition! Of course I'm a bit biased :good:

Also not sure if this has been covered, but is there a way to show all messages as read on devices if they have been opened on one or the other? For instance, if I get 5 texts at work and read them all, when I go home and turn on my tablet, I get them all coming through even though I read them on my phone. Same goes for the opposite, if I read and respond on my tablet, they still show as new messages on my phone.

Re: [App][2.2 - 4.2] Cloud SMS - Send SMS From Your Tablet!

Starting to test some of the new ui tweaks, plus a fix for kindle fire users who may or may not have legitimately bought the app. I just hate seeing bugs on my crash tracker.

I'll be correcting a couple small bugs and introducing the new incoming call dialog with a much bigger photo and different layout from the message popup screen.

Any other suggestions or requests for the next release? Is everyone happy so far? Let me know!

Are people still experiencing mms issues on the tablet? My wife sent me a pic on my phone but on the tablet, the message and pic was something my friend sent me several weeks ago.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] N1_Fan:
Re: [App][2.2 - 4.2] Cloud SMS - Send SMS From Your Tablet!

Yes, same issue here.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] romeyjdogg:
Yes, MMS is still an issue. Plus, I am having a heck of a time getting the messages to sync properly on my tablet after it's been off for a while. Not sure what's going on though.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] ivans88:
Re: [App][2.2 - 4.2] Cloud SMS - Send SMS From Your Tablet!

^Same problem here. These messages have wrong reception time.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] bechard:
With the MMS issues, is everyone seeing the last MMS received before the new MMS?

I may have a timing issue where the MMS pickup happens prior to your phone downloading the new data from your carrier. I'm still told that it works for most people, but I do want it to work for everyone.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] VanillaG0rilla:
Re: [App][2.2 - 4.2] Cloud SMS - Send SMS From Your Tablet!

Yep, that what it seems like...at least for the last 2 mms I've received.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] rocketj:
Re: [App][2.2 - 4.2] Cloud SMS - Send SMS From Your Tablet!

That happened to me for the first time yesterday. normally any MMS arrive on my tablet under my phone number and not the number of the person sending it.

Still a fantastic app!
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] bechard:
Alright guys,

I'm working on a rewrite of the MMS handler to get past the remaining issues and get everyone working.

Next release also fixes a power lock state than can occur on Phone Call notification, plus the brand new Phone Call notification pop-up! This new notification for phone calls (when enabled) pops up a big contact photo with the name and number, with buttons for Reply and Close. Reply simply opens the message pop-up so you can quickly reply, while close does what you would expect. This feature now uses the new Incoming Call Ringtone setting so you can choose a real ringtone (which isn't clipped).

I've got a few UI tweaks in this build which addresses message popup scaling for all devices, so Nexus 10 should look much better.

I'm hoping to finish the MMS fix this weekend, but it may be mid week before I have an update posted.

Thanks for the feedback and support!
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] bechard:
Re: [App][2.2 - 4.2] Cloud SMS - Send SMS From Your Tablet!

Update!

The new mms handling code is coming along nicely. Not getting any further old mms messages or photos with it.

Should have my build fully working tomorrow, with a few days of testing.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] cman675:

Crashes on my Nexus One :(

Now working with v1.04
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] bechard:
I've found an issue with the last release (1.0.3) which does cause a crash on some devices.

If you haven't updated to 1.0.3, please wait until 1.0.4 is available (1 hour or less)
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] bechard:
1.0.4 has been posted to the Play Store, but it takes up to an hour for it to show up. Once it is up, anyone affected by the current startup crash, please update.

Sorry about the inconvenience, I'll try to test more devices prior to release next time.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Basil3:
Much appreciated. I purchased but it was crashing one my one x. Accidentally hit refund button but will repurchase.

1.0.3 crashes on HTC Magic.

1.0.2 worked fine. Waiting for fix
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] bechard:
1.0.4 Should be available for everyone now, and should resolve the start crash.

Sorry again for the inconvenience!

I hope everyone enjoys the new features that came out today!
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] bechard:
Any feedback for 1.0.4? Looks like everything is back to normal now.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Williams.Joe:
Good, start crash bug has been fixed. well done.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] king200:
1.04 working. Better than ever.

Bug? I was writing in landscape and switched to portrait. The send arrow was not to be found and I couldn't seem to scroll the text over. I think the send arrow should be a line above or below...maybe.

I tried Chomp briefly last week and it didn't work but I'm going to try again. Main feature I'm interested in is a delayed send. I can use the tablet to make texts and send them when I get a WiFi line again. They also show failed send in message thread and allow you to send again.

Has anyone tried tethering to their phone with something like WiFi tether and then using our favorite app? I'm guessing it's going to work.

I didn't 'review' the app yet. Too many 5s in a row and nobody is going to believe it!
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] HasC:
Working fine now, thanks for an excellent app!
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Maceone:
Working well :)
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] ivans88:
Works like a charm now on 1.0.4. Messages failed to send yesterday when was on 1.0.3 was send today, when I updated the app :laugh: Thank you for the fast fix. Going to review it on the market today.

Another thing: there is no option to select some text in the messages, only to delete the whole message. It would be useful if we could copy text and paste it somewhere else.

And also, you should add some padding to the message text, especially to the sent messages.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] king200:
Problem with messages? I get +1xxx-yyy-zzz but never get a second message. I send and receive long messages ok. Sender was using iPhone. Carrier is ATT for both.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] bechard:
You guys are great at describing what I want to do! I plan on changing the delete function to a menu button, and allowing you to click a check box for each message you want to delete. This will free up the long press for text selection (copy/paste). I also want to do the same delete menu item on the contact list to clear out multiple conversations selectively.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] bechard:
So guys,

Any feedback on the latest release? Are MMS images now working properly (and transmitting much faster)? As with any complete overhaul I do expect to make some adjustments, but in my testing I wasn't able to trip it up.

Thanks for being such a supportive community!

Re: [App][2.2 - 4.2] Cloud SMS - Send SMS From Your Tablet!

Holy **** I actually received MMS messages for the first time! Way to go!
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] jack1984:
Re: [App][2.2 - 4.2] Cloud SMS - Send SMS From Your Tablet!

+MMS seemed solid, love the new notification pop up and glad to see the ringtone feature implemented.

-The ringtone should be looped, as using the same one on my phone has it only ring once. The ginger bread android portrait icon needs to be upgraded, the holo people's icon preferably, IMO. Lastly, it would be great if there was an option to disable the portrait on the message pop up, or at least have it only show when a contact actually has a photo.

Thanks Bechard!

[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] bechard:
Re: [App][2.2 - 4.2] Cloud SMS - Send SMS From Your Tablet!

I'll look at the ringtone looping, likely due to me quietly testing with two young kids in the house.

Would you mind sending a screenshot of what you see in gingerbread? I'll do some tweaks and set a matching default contact image for all builds once I see it. Programmatically for the pop-up I'd rather show a place holder image rather than hide the image.

Happy to hear mms is working as intended! All it took was a rewrite from scratch!
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Frankie1588:
Does this app have a web app to view text messages as well? This is one reason I use MightyText. I can go to mightytext.net/app and it will allow me to view/send text messages from the web interface. If CloudSMS has this then I will gladly purchase this to support a fellow XDA member. :)
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] jack1984:
I don't use Gingerbread, but the default contact photo is the same as the Gingerbread contact photo (IIRC). I just think the Holo variant would mesh better than the current one used right now (Hey, Gingerbread devices are no longer the majority!)

Sending texts on tablet via GV or mobile carrier, using the same app?

I'm very close here to getting the setup I want. Using Google Voice Integration/Cloud SMS on my phone, the stock messaging app can receive and send texts through gvoice and my mobile carrier.

I've been shooting for the same thing but on my wifi-only Nexus 7. Has anybody had any luck using google voice integration on a nexus tablet just like on their phone? I've almost got it...

Right now with GV Integration/Cloud SMS/stock mms.apk on the nexus I can receive texts via GV and mobile carrier, arriving in both the Cloud SMS and the stock messenger.

However the Cloud SMS app can't send a text with Google Voice and the stock messenger can't send using Cloud SMS/my mobile number.

Is there a way to allow the Cloud SMS app a choice to send through GV? Or is there msgr app that will allow for a text to be sent through Cloud SMS?

Thanks, and props to the developer for a great app worth well more than .99.

Any DashClock fans?

Next release will feature DashClock (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.nurik.roman.dashclock) integration for lock screens :)
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] juried:
There stil seems to be a fatal bug that affects at least a few users, that nothing is synced back on to the tablet. I have tried so many things, even up to instaling a more complete version of my tablet's OS and trying different GB and JB android versions on the phone, but nothing works. I have only one way comms.

Even though for now it seems that few users are affected by this bug, it may become a show stopper for many users when seemingly small changes might render the app unusable.

Wess are you still working on this bug? Remember my offer of running test versions for you with increased debug output?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] bechard:
Re: [App][2.2 - 4.2] Cloud SMS - Send SMS From Your Tablet!

Just emailed you with the problem. Your tablet's Rom is reporting an invalid string for the os version which I've never seen with a Rom before. I'll fix that issue in my current development build but it won't be out until it's ready.

This issue is preventing your tablet from properly registering with the routing service.

If you can't wait for me, you could try another Rom on your tablet.

At least now we know what the issue is!
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] bechard:
DashClock Support

Hey guys,

So I've got the DashClock widget extension to where I want it, and now I can show off the end result.

When NO messages are unread (nothing new) the extension will just say No Unread Messages, but I may just remove the display when nothing is available. (Feedback?) When tapped and unlocked, the main Cloud SMS view will be displayed.

When a message IS available, the latest message will show the Sender - Time with the message below. Take a look at the attached screen cap for a visual display of this feature in action. When you tap on the Cloud SMS line and unlock, Cloud SMS will open to the messages thread for the sending contact, rather than just the main view.

Let me know if you have any thoughts / feedback! I'll be closing up the current build after this feature, so the next release is coming soon!
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] jack1984:
Re: [App][2.2 - 4.2] Cloud SMS - Send SMS From Your Tablet!

I'd prefer it if the notification was only visible when a message is available. Makes more sense, and at the same time it allows for other alerts to take priority over it.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] juried:
It works! I just edited the build.prop file. Thanks very much for persisting with my case.

Cloud SMS 2.1.8 will be released tomorrow and does have an extension for dashclock built in. Once running this release you'll see cloud sms listed under extensions for dashclock. Cloud sms will hide itself in dashclock when no unread messages are available (thanks Jack), but will show the latest message sender and body when an unread messages is found. Tapping the message and unlocking will directly open the sender's conversation view.

I've also made transition animations into a setting by request.

I've got a number of tweaks and bug fixes in this one too, and better support for kindle fire.

Thanks for the feedback and support! I'll have the official changes list posted on release as always. :)

Disabled Slide Animation for Android 4.x consistency, and added a setting to re-enable it if desired.

Updated contact icon to modern unknown contact icon.

Fixed crash on Kindle Message Quick Reply Pop-Up.

Fixed UI flash when started on boot.

Re: [App][2.2 - 4.2] Cloud SMS - Send SMS From Your Tablet!

Such a great update! I don't have any other suggestions for the future except maybe get the text notifications to sync to the phone. What I mean by that is when a text is read on the tablet, have the notification cleared on the phone similar to what gmail does if an email is opened on a PC or other device.

Thanks Bechard, this update really polished things up, and the dash clock widget is a welcome addition.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] csamolot:
Re: [App][2.2 - 4.2] Cloud SMS - Send SMS From Your Tablet!

Awesome update! I still notice though when you click on a message that doesn't have a contract picture it uses the picture of the last contact you clicked on that had a picture. No biggie. Keep up the great work!
