The settings changed recently and not all resellers changed at the same time. But it works now, right?

When did this happen? When you receive a message (I think) ?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Gvan:
I also have this problem by sending:

I was using periodically and since a time I have problem

My Voipbuster account is running wel on PC

I reinstall voipSMS

I reinstall Framework both on SD card

I send SMS using : https//.... via PDA message was delivered but no feedback on PDA

Do the same on PC message was delivered with feedback

I use a QTEK9100 WM6.0

What is wrong ???
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] vippie:
Downloaded the newest RC and changed the poivy url to the new one. Works great! I like the new thing that are put into this app! :D

The people getting the NotSupportedException should lookup the right url on the website of the service they use.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Gvan:
still problem on QTEK9100

I remove VOIPSMS from PDA and reinstall it on main memory...

reset after reinstall.. use for ( I have a VOIPBUSTER account) link:

https://myaccount.voipbuster.com/clx/sendsms.php

Using the same link on web is running well

Where is the fault ??
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Rhapsody:
Running well doesn't mean that it's actually correct unfortunately.

The link should return a XML fragment containing the result and/or failure reason.

When it returns "1 1 succes" it's is not XML.

The link for VoipBuster should be: https://www.voipbuster.com/myaccount/sendsms.php
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Gvan:
Now it is running without error !!!

The problem was the link !!!

Can I ask you to put the right link on first page...to avoid future confusion

thanks for you help !!

:) :) :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Rhapsody:
That's a good idea!!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] wiemie:
I have tested the new RC and I must say it works like a charm :-)

Sending messages with a '&' in the text failed in the old version since the new URL for VoipBuster... In the new version (using replace characters) it works fine again.

Only issue with VoipBuster now is when I send a message > 160chars it fails for the first message (telling me the message is too long and I need to shorten it); the 2nd message works fine (since it is less than 160 chars)

This not only happens when I'm using 'special' chars (like & or diacritic characters) but on every message I send with >160 chars.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Rhapsody:
Thanks for reporting.

Will try to look at the messagelength asap.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] playagiron:
Hi,

VoipSMS is really a great tool! Now I just wonder whether it can be used with other "normal" SMS providers which offer a html API.

For instance, one I used to use (SMStrade) provides this HTTP API:

http://gateway.smstrade.de/?key=123&[B]to=4917212345[/B]&message=[B]Hello+World[/B]&route=gold&from=[B]sendernr[/B]

So should be in the same spirit as the VOip Betamax APIS, so I wonder whether one can add an account by defining the specific API for other SMS providers on the net to use them along with this neat program?? Any change that could work out or is it to complex?? Would be a great additional use of this program for the many SMS providers out there!

Cheers

Johannes
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Rhapsody:
At this moment this is not possible due technical limitations.

It's not complex but it requires a lot of work. The Betamax clones all work the same. A new, different, api needs a generic approach to accounts and sending. What do all these fields (key, route) in the URL mean?

It's on my wishlist btw.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] spacepilot:
SMS77 support?

Hello,

is there any chance for SMS77 support in VoipSMS? This provider has a nice feature to send delivery reports by mail.

Unluckily the only supporting application I know (IPSMS) is discontinued and not working on higher resolution devices :-(

The required parameter's content looks highly similar to voipbuster, just different parameter naming in the http request...

http://gateway.sms77.de/?u=*username*&p=*password*&to=*phonenumber*&text=*text*&type=*type*&from=*phonenumber*

*phonenumber* can be e.g. 0171... (german mobiles) or 0049171... or 49171

*type* can be basicplus, quality, festnetz, flash (or maybe just putting in the string type=quality, as 'quality' type is needed to send SMS abroad or with your own number)

https:// connection and sending of the password as MD5 hash is also supported.

(a little bit outdated (german) API definition is on http://www.sms77.de/api.pdf , they've got even an debug mode (&debug=1) to test the API without costs)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Rhapsody:
as with SmsTrade, SMS77 should also be supported.

I'm thinking about a generic solution for supporting multiple providers.

Each provider has the same ingredients;

- base URL

- collection of parameters (username, password etc)

But first things first; I think the last beta of 3.0 is stable enough to make it final! It's out for a few weeks already and no errors have been reported.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] wiemie:
Any news on the >160 chars-error yet? ;-)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Rhapsody:
****! I totally overlooked that one.

Thanks for reporting (again). Will try to look at it this week.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] nahid569:
can you integrate google voice sms into this as well?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Rhapsody:
Google Voice SMS?

I don't know that one. Can you give me some more information?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] nahid569:
yes for sure. Well voice is open to US people only and you can send SMS to hundreds of countries worldwide absolutely for free from either you US mobile phone or online website.

I live in the US now but I want to use there service when i visit other countries. Voice doesnt have any VOIP settings or anything like that so you cant integrate it with any app but I was hoping to somehow use WIFI to send sms using the google voice system. This is completly free and if you are willing to do this then I can give you a free Google VOice invite because its in Beta mode right now.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Rhapsody:
When I look to this url, I see that Google Voice SMS is a little bit to complicated. It's not only sms, but a complete, online, storage application with call, sms, inbox functionality.

At this moment, this doesn't fit into VoipSMS. But maybe this can help you.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] eTomm:
GooSMS is another thing Raphshody. It is a service from google where u can ask things through sms and you will get answers to them, or something like this.

Google voice as u said it is a complete voip solution that wrap all ur phones and act as a central place where to manage everything. Right now it is open just in USA but i managed to register from italy too.... a little tricky but it worked.

The good part is that you can in fact send free sms all around the world at no cost, and if the api posted before is true it should be quite easy.

Apart this there is a project on source forge:

https://sourceforge.net/projects/gvoicedotnet/

I'm waiting too the correction of the 160 characters bug that i just reported months ago, but it was flagged as "non bug"... i surprised it came back once again :P
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] evilburt:
Hi

I just downloaded your program, nice little program works like a charm but i was wondering if there are any plans to put sms messages in between the normal sms messages. This way you can still have the conversation style view of windows mobile.

Not sure if this has been asked before, but im not really in the mood to start reading 77 pages :)

Grtz
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Rhapsody:
Go read the first 77 pages!!! No just kidding, I've been looking at this a long time ago. It's possible to get the messages from the Pocket Outlook inbox, but it's not possible to move them TO the PO inbox. (only with c++, but I can't program in that language)

----

Further, at this moment I'm very busy (again...) and for now I'm not going to look at other sms providers like Google. I hope I can fix the 160 chars length issue this year.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Rhapsody:
Here's a new version with a fix for the message splitting.

3.0.2009.1220
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] wiemie:
It is working perfectly! Thanks!!!

A Merry Christmas to you!

PS. Still on the wishlist: Concatenated SMS:-P
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] storms:
Aaisp and Esendex providers

Hi,

I am using two sms providers. Both are paid-for providers used by business and organisations. Both have numerous sms apis, and both can send sms via http post. I am pleased that you were seeking to make your app generic to provide the ability for the user to add providers. However, in the meantime, I wonder if you could help, or give some advice as how I could add the following providers:

Esendex is a sms service provider.

Aaisp (Andrews and Arnold) provide landlines, voip, internet and more. Most of their virtual landline numbers include incoming and outgoing text ability (UK landlines can receive texts, and also send them if the user has the right hardware or software).

Andrews and Arnold:

Voip set-up

Esendex:

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] misko903:
did not works. when i want to sent an sms, it write me a message:

sending...

an error occured:

system.net.webexception:...

i am using wm6.5 (duttys r6 rom for topaz)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Rhapsody:
Please give me some more information about the error?

What's the error message? (Right after system.net.webexception there's a sentence which describes the error)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Rhapsody:
Supporting other accounts is on the wishlist for 2010 :)

Concatenated SMS is most likely not supported by Betamax services. They only except messages wich are <= 160 chars.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] misko903:
there is it, if you need translation, it says, that netCF35 cab is not installed, but it is. i cant install it, because it says, that it is already installed...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Rhapsody:
The error message is a standard message because 'NETCFv35.Messages.EN.cab' could not be found.

If I look at the error details at the bottom

Net.Dns.ResolveInternal(String hostName)

v: System.Net.Dns.GetHostEntry(String hostNameOrAddress)

v: System.Net.ServicePoint.resolve()

it tells me that there was something wrong with the internet connection of your mobile phone. Can you verify that you've got a internet connection that actually works?

You can try to install 'NETCFv35.Messages.EN.cab' to get the actual error message. If you can't find it on your pc (C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft.NET\SDK\CompactFramework\v3.5\WindowsCE\Diagnostics) you can use the attached file.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] misko903:
so, i have installed that file, after it writes this:

of course, my internet conn. works, in opera and other apps, even in the latest official voipsms. where the problem can be?

thanks
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] thesecondsfade:
Google Voice

..........
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] texarcana:
u can ask voipbuster what resultstrings and descriptions they use and on that base its maybe possible to do the following:

if description is "success" or "error" then

label (or whatever you use) = ".... success"

if description is "invalid number" then

label (or whatever you use) = ".... invalid number"

that could be a dirty fix
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Rhapsody:
Hmm no that's not really fixing the problem.

For now I added the URL (with all the details) to the progresspanel when the result does not equals 'success'.

If you want I can put it online tonight.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] shortyboy:
are all these rates are in credits?like the sms is USD 0.032,is that 32 cents?or something else?pardon my ignorance,this is my first time im about to try any type of VOIP prgrams....keep up the good work!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Rhapsody:
These credits are in cents yes.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] yogichauhan:
Thanks alot skandler, for ur help.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Rhapsody:
A new version is available (see first post)

I've improved the feedback when the VoipBuster service reports an error when sending a message.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] garsim:
Thanks :D
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Yod-b:
This app is good... I only have one problem - and not only with this sms voip app. Everytime i send a message it says sending failed. But thats not true, cause they got my msgs. Can anyone help me to fix this somehow? Maybe the settings are broken somewhere.

Another question, dont someone knows if there is a another app to check my credits on voipbuster...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Rhapsody:
Do you mean you have to same problem with other sms voip apps?

I'm facing the problem as well, but I don't have any idea (yet) to solve this :(
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Yod-b:
feedback problem

Yes, i also tried it with IPSMS, and it was the same.

However, this app seems to be better - since it's more simple, and i like these kind of stuffs.

Any ides for my problems?

Edit: are the msgs always sent, even if the app says error?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] flaviopac:
In Italy we have some free sms from our operators,, and you can use them through internet...

I can send free sms to all italian operator customers with that service through home internet connection.

If I'm not at home I use a program that connect itself automatically to these services... So I spend only 1 eurocent for each sms (if I'm not at home)...

Some of them work also for international customers, so they are very usefull (and, more important, FREE!!:D).....
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Rhapsody:
It seems like the message is sent when the application reports 'success' or when the application returns 'failed' and the error details is 'error'.

The fact that IPSMS is facing the same issue seems to be an error of the VoipBuster service...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Yod-b:
I tried the new IPSMS, released some days ago, and it reported success. But with the note, the adressees mobile is offline.... strange however, but she received it. My girlfriend you know... lives abroad :D

Any idea for the credit check?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Rhapsody:
I dropped a question in the IPSMS thread for Skandler. I think he's doing it the 'dirty' way. (if errorcode = 'error' then success)

The creditcheck would be a nice functionality, but this is impossible for now because the VoipBuster service doesn't support this. (As far as I know)

EDIT:

I've uploaded version 1.4

VoipSMS now supports multiple messages at a time and the VoipBuster error issue is solved as well. (the dirty way unfortunately, but there's no other way )
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Yod-b:
good job... improving your tiny app... it aint got lots of functionality, but its pretty fast and easy. so good, keep going.

and if you know something about the cred stuff, let me no.. ;)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Rhapsody:
Will do.

Tonight I'll try to put a newer version online. I noticed that the progress window doesn't close automatically anymore when a message is send successfully.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] maarten_de_ruiter:
non-retraceable error

Raphsody,

First i would like to thank you for this initiative, these are the kind of programs we are all looking for! (yep i also got a gf living abroad ;)

I got a little problem though, it seems like i'm not able to send messages. I got the settings configured the right way and all i get is a error. The exact error is the following "Error:failure". This doesn't really tell me much about the cause.. You probably can't help me either because of the amount of info given by the errormessage. Maybe it's a nice feature (addition), to add a errorlog in the root folder..

Thanks!

windows mobile 2003 SE

Another question: Is Windows Mobile 2003 SE supported? i got CF 2 installed on it..

groeten..
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Rhapsody:
Do you have the latest version installed? (1.4) This issue should be solved in the latest version.

Though I haven't tested it on WM 2003SE, it should work when CF 2 is installed.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] christonge:
Hi Rhapsody, First of all I´d like to say a HUGE thank you for this great application... I only discovered it this weekend as previously I had been using the HTML method of sended VOIP SMS in Internet Explorer but this is a much easier method. You made my weekend!! I´ve used it with voipbuster, voipcheap and voipwise and they all work great.

The only problem I have with SMS via VOIP is that the recpient recieves my ID with the message but actually the number is missing the + before the country code so when they try to reply it´s often not possible. I know this is not a problem with your program but the VOIP... do you know of a solution to this???

Thanks again for your great program!!!!;)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] thesecondsfade:
Here is an open source project that uses the Google Voice SMS feature if you're interested in incorporating something like it into your program:

Google Voice Easy SMS
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] wiemie:
I tried myself by manually adjusting the URL. Regular Hexadecimal characters are accepted by Betamax. CSMS works by adding a few HEX-Characters to the first few characters of your message...

Unfortunately these specific HEX-Characters are refused by Betamax. So it does not work indeed at this moment :-(

In 3.0.2009.1220 I've noticed two other things; splitting messages works fine now :-) One small issue: it splits messages based on words so it seems (this makes reading the seperate messages a lot easier). The counter for the number of messages does not use this. So when I send a message of 320 characters it shows "2 messages" while it actually sends 3.

Also when sending multiple messages and message 1 fails for whatever reason it will keep trying to send message 2 (and further). This will result in some kind of a puzzle on the receiver side ;-)

PS. My (almost-)GF likes to send me loooooooooong text messages and I love to send her long messages back ;-) That's why I keep mentioning these long/split messages :-P
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Rhapsody:
So basically I'm responsible for your future love-life? :)

So shortly;

[wishes]

- you'd like messages splitted by word

- when 1 message failed to sent, do'nt sent other messages.

[bug]

- fix char counter when writing a message

is that correct?

About the hex chars. Betamax isn't very consequent with it. Not all chars are allowed and some chars are accepted but simply ignored. And there's no documentation whatsoever. (at least not available to me)

I've got some time tonight I think. My GF will go to dutch course tonight. :) (for those who're interested; we live together for a month or two now! :) )

Edit: for calling you can use this tool: http://www.lowcaller.com/en/get-lowcaller-now.php?label=Voipbuster.com
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] A&A:
Rhapsody, don't you get it man?!?!

You are responsible for many people's love-life!

You are just like Nokia... (better actually)... Connecting people!!! :D :D :D

Ciao, from A&A
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Rhapsody:
Hehe, man I don't know if I can handle this responsibility.

Tonight I've been sitting arround the designtable to come up with a good design for supporting different accounts like SMSBug and Google Voice.

I don't know if I want to include calling in the future. There are better tools out there and it costs a lot of time to figure it out so at the moment I'm thinking not to support calling but to focus on sending text messages only.

I've got it figured out pretty much complete. There are some minor but important details where I have to think about. I'll keep this thread updated.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] wiemie:
Well, the messages split by word is something you seem to have implemented already :-) At least, when I test messages I see them split by words, not by 160 chars. (WinMo 6.1) The only bug is the counter does not show the correct number of messages

And I'm not sure what to do with the remaining messages if one fails, perhaps a message "Continue, Retry, Cancel"? (since you might have the case you try to send a message to x people and for one of them it fails sometime). When you send a long message (say split into 4 messages and message part 2 fails you might want to retry part 2 and continue with part 3&4)

[wish]

- "Continue, Retry, Cancel" on failed message part (BEFORE sending next part)

- CSMS ;-) Wish for Betamax :-P

[bug]

- Counter does not show correct number of messages on split messages

And I guess I will be responsible but you are connecting people indeed ;-) And it helps a lot! ;-) Still very nice you keep working on this tool even though you have just started to live together with your GF :-) (and even better since there is no API from Betamax as you say)

why don't you publish on 1st page? :D

fortune that I read all the thread :eek:
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] A&A:
I second that ;) (forza Toro!)

@ Rhapsody, zoals je ziet, hebben Italianen altijd wel wat te zeiken ;) maar suiller heeft in dit geval wel gelijk :D

Per Rhapsody, come vedi gli italiani sono sempre li a 'rompere' ;) ma bisogna dire che suiller ha proprio ragione :D
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] suiller:
volkomen gelijk mijn vriend ;)

anyway I'm testing ton of sms voip/clients & by far this is the best :cool:

just one more feature I'd like: could be useful another option to automatically close the keyboard before quitting the application... :p
