Of course I am referring ONLY to the font size of the SMS message I am typing... All the other fonts are to be left alone :D

By the way, while typing a SMS, the first letter of a sentence is not being capitalized (despite the keyboard is configured to do that). It would be great if you could take a look at that too :o

I have also noticed Nazbouh's error if I receive a SMS with a weird character (deleting the SMS indeed solves the issue... if the SMS needs to be kept the inbox.txt must be edited manually)... but I am too embarrassed to ask you anything else... so I will actually leave you in peace do your work ;)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Rhapsody:
Yesterday I started some tests on my on phone. (normally I test everything first on the emulator)

There's a issue now with sending the messages. My phone has a duch version of WM. Which means a dutch version of .NETCF. This results in some kind of error: http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&...esult&cd=1&q=netcfv35.messages.wm.cab&spell=1

So hopefully I can fix this tonight. It's frustrating because the error doesn't say anything except:

"An error message is available for this exception but cannot be displayed because these messages are optional and are not currently installed on this device. Please install 'NETCFv35.Messages.EN.wm.cab' for Windows Mobile 5.0

and above or 'NETCFv35.Messages.EN.cab' for other platforms. Restart the application to see the message."

When this is fixed I'll try to put a alpha/beta version online.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Rhapsody:
I'll keep the fontsize in mind.

I'm using a normal textfield without any modification. So I totally don't have a clue why the first characters aren't capitalized. (I've got the same)

For now I'll not add any new features, otherwise it will never be finished. It already takes way too long due the lack of time... :(
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] A&A:
I totally agree with you. It is already quite a lot what you are doing now... Minor additional fine tuning and retouching can always be part of v.4 :D :D :D

Please remember that your efforts -especially considering the time you are dedicating to this and stealing from your main activity- are VERY VERY MUCH appreciated.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] nazbouh:
you might hate me for what I will ask but did you consider to support other site than voipbuster ?

I am asking this because actually most of those site don't allow to send sms in cyrillic. So far I only found this one (http://napishi.ru/interface.asp) and I know lots of people here would like to be able to send sms in cyrillic :rolleyes:
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] A&A:
Hi Nazbouh, I have a suggestion for you that might work...

Try to edit manually the file "accounts.xml". By doing that I managed to send sms through a site that was not among the supported voip-sites.

I hope it works for you too... Please let me know... :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Rhapsody:
On the 'add account' form, it's not required to choose a VoipBuster clone from the list. You can type the url yourself. THat list is only there for the ease of use

The only possible problem can be that the URI format of the provider you'd like to use is different than the VoipBuster format. (https://myaccount.voipbuster.com/cl...from=xxxxxxxxxx&to=xxxxxxxxxx&text=xxxxxxxxxx)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Rhapsody:
I've been looking at the site you suggested. It seems like the format is different.

It is possible to support this, but not for the first release of 3.0. I'm willing to look at it though. It requires some big changes which I can't perform now.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Rhapsody:
Update: I finally fixed the issue above. Thanks to this site: http://blogs.msdn.com/martijnh/arch...essages-on-the-net-compact-framework-3-5.aspx . Now I can read the proper error message and try to fix it.

My goal is to publish VoipSMS before christmas.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] nazbouh:
Cool nice to hear :)

If you need someone for some beta test I migh be able to help you as I use your application fairly often ! Just let me know if you need help for this.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Rhapsody:
Since this morning (that is I installed it on my phone yesterday evening) I'm able to send messages with the new version.

For now I'll test it myself first, to get rid of the biggest issues (and make all features work first) After that I'll put it online over here :)

Thanks everybody for 'signing up' for testing.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Rhapsody:
Good evening,

Here's a first 'public beta' of VoipSMS 3.0.

A few notes:

- This version is currently for PocketPC only! (Not all features have been tested for SmartPhones)

- Not all features work yet. (Interception, Folders for example are not working completely)

I'll post an updated version when I've made enough progress again :)

Have a nice weekend!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] A&A:
Heeeey! :D

GREAT JOB MAN!!! It looks amazing... What a major restyling!!!

Just downloaded and (briefly) tested... We L-O-V-E the Copy&Paste function!!! And the "Do you want to save the message?" prompt is REAL SWEEEEET! :)

We also saw a bunch of new stuff (like "Call")... Super!!! Is that really what I dreamt about?

A quick comment -if you do not mind immediate feedback- would be to add to the already existing commands "Cut" " Copy" "Paste" "Delete" also a "Select All" (this could be pretty useful).

Will test some more and get back to you!!!

Greetz :D

PS: Plase NOTE the reason for editing below...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Moe5508:
Fantastic! Great job Rhapsody - you have eager fans out here!!!!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Rhapsody:
Thanks thanks thanks,

I'm happy that you're also happy with it.

About the 'Select All' option; it will be there in the next version.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] nazbouh:
hi,

few things on this new version :

- I sent to myself a sms. I have the option to save the incoming message ON and it's set to "show no notification/sms". I have XML as format in the option. It didn't save my sms in the sent inbox and nothin in the inbox either (note, when I got the sms the application was running).

- Using the option to "show NO notification/sms" still open the application. Having it set at (none) shouldn't open the appplication.

- If I set in the common options (open folder at startup) then I cannnot anymore write a sms. The folder show up but when I close the folder window it close the application. And there is not button or menu to go to the "write an sms" window. Now I don't know what to do to be able to write a sms ! I can't anymore :(

- the "My text" is cool and working fine.

if it can help here is my config file :

Regards,
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Rhapsody:
Interception is not working currently.

Startup is working, but indeed I've to add a link on the folders screen to go to the write sms screen.

You can 'repair' your VoipSMS by setting the 'Startup' to NewSMS (Don't know the name exactly)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] nazbouh:
I had to delete the settings.xml to be able to do it. I can't change the Startup setting to 'NewSMS' as on the folder window we don't have access to the configuration. We are stick to this mode.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Rhapsody:
What I meant was; change the setting in the XML.

Because of these small issues, VoipSMS is in beta.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] nazbouh:
ok to change the settings in xml file but to do that I would need to know what are the different value allowed in this file :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Rhapsody:
It is 'NewSMS'.

It will be functional in the next update :) Thanks for posting.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Rhapsody:
Here's a small update:

New or fixed:

- Options now accessable via Folders window

- Ability to send a new SMS from Folders window

- Better SIP handling

- The 'Exit application' checkbox when sending a message will save its value now. (So you don't have to set it each time if you use it)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] A&A:
Send Again option

Rhapsody you rock!!!

Will start testing your new updated release :D

A small request: From the "Sent Items" folder would it be possible to tap on a (sent) SMS and select "Send Again"?

This would be very useful for:

- These guys that often do not receive a SMS and ask to have it re-sent

- Sending a (previously) sent SMS to a different recipient. (Obviously the recipient name and text should be editable).

Thanks again for your dedication and efforts :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Rhapsody:
You can always forward a message or reply on a message.

I'll think about the 'send again' option.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] A&A:
Hi Rhapsody,

As I go along testing I keep on finding PLEASANT surprises in your new release (thanks for the "Select all" among other things) :D

Some more feedback (surely you have noticed all 5 points already):

1) When you are in "My Texts" the keyboard covers the input field: It would be ideal if the input field could be placed just below the "Enable My Texts" section.

2) As mentioned in a previous post if you could enlarge a bit the SMS font size it would be great.

3) In the screen where you type the SMS if you tap on "Menu" it would be nice if "Folders" could be expandable (just like "Options" and "Edit") in order to see/access directly "Inbox" "Drafts" and "Sent Items".

4) In the screen where you type the SMS the "ADD" button is missing.

5) In "Drafts" if you select a SMS and you tap on "Send" "Reply" "Forward" nothing happens.

Happy developing! :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Rhapsody:
I knew I forgot something. I was thinking about this yesterday, but didn't implement it yet.

it's on my 'todo-list' (but not high priority)

Ok.

This button is removed due to SmartPhone compatibility. You can press the enter key (or ok key) on your phone.

To be done :)

Thanks.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] nazbouh:
hi,

didn't test yet the new release but when I want to write a sms I can see only ONE line on my Diamond. Half Top of the screen is used by the contact/network parameters and half bottom by the keyboard. In the middle only one line is visible.

Maybe could you add an option to hide/show the contact/network while we are typing a sms so we could have more space ?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Rhapsody:
The statusbar is already hidden when the area gets to small. I've to see if it's possible to get more space for the textfield. I can't hide the upper part easily because it's possible that the user is in one of those fields. In that case you don't want the field to 'disappear'.

I've got a Diamond myself and got the same. Sometimes I switch to a smaller keyboard because it's way too big.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] A&A:
I know that this may sound selfish at best, but it would be GREAT if you could leave the "ADD" button for all the PPC users and the SP users at that stage (since they cannot tap on the screen) will press their OK hardkeys.

It is a bit annoying to switch from stylus to hardkeys especially when the device is cradled or used via remote keyboard.

Just out of curiosity, but how did the SP users do in previous versions, which did have the "ADD" button? :confused:

Thanks for your understanding...(hope you will give it a tought) :D
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] nazbouh:
when I write a sms it doesn't select the recipient. I select it in the combobox but it doesn't appear to be really selected as the number doesn't appear in the "TO :". I have to use the MENU/Add recipient to be able to select it ...
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] A&A:
nazbouh, If you read the posts below you can (sort of) conclude that this happens because the "ADD" button is missing.

I hope Rhapsody will implement it again in his final v.3 release :D

Like it is now (in this BETA release) most people/PPC users will NOT realize that to add the selected recipient number a hardkey has to be pressed and will probably consider this a bug :(
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] nazbouh:
Sorry, :( didn't get you were talking about this issue :)

Maybe we don't need the ADD button, just make the selection you do automatically ADD the number. And add a blank entry in the list to allow to clear the TO field ?

Anyway as it is right now (without ADD button or Auto select) it's just a pain in the ass to use :( (call me lazy ;))
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Rhapsody:
I remember I did this in the previous (2.3/2.4 version) and people asked me to remove it.

About the clear option; there's a 'Clear recipients' item to be found in Menu->Edit .
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] A&A:
Rhapsody,

Just to understand it clearly, are you integrating VoipCall into VoipSMS?

Is that what the "Call" feature does/will do?

To enable that service/function do we need to insert the "Service Number" into the respective field within the Account configuration section?

Please refresh my memory, when using VoipCall (or the new "Call" feature of VoipSMS) are you still being charged (by your GSM provider) a local call to the service number/landline (PLUS eventual VOIP operator charges if your Free Days have expired) right?

Thanks for your clarifications :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Rhapsody:
yes, I try to integrate VoipCall into VoipSMS. So that's what the call function will do.

The enable it, you have to fill in the servicenr withing the Account configuration, indeed.

When you use it, it will call the given service number. After a 'pause' signal it will send the number you want to dial. The call-service then redirects your call. So basically you're just calling with the service number (and you're being charged for it)

The costs from the service number to the recipient will be charged via VoipBuster.

I know it's not the ideal situation, but VoipBuster doesn't support HTML links like SMS. I have been looking to implement it like it is implemented on the VoipBuster (online) controlpanel but it simply didn't want to work.

However, there are some solutions on the internet. One is also mentioned in the VoipCall thread. There's a webpage which can establish a call between you and the servicenumber. In that case you're only being charged by VoipBuster and not via your telco.

But I can't garantee that it's save. (maybe it's collecting your username/password? It's unlikely, but not impossible)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] nazbouh:
one question regarding the sms.

when your application detect an incoming SMS VoipSMS startup (I have the option DISPLAY to (none)) and ... nothing. I wait wait wait, usually close to 1min before to get the windows notification about the new sms (and the sms doesn't appear in the sms box till this notification).

Do you have any idea why such a long delay ?

EDIT : it's getting worst, in fact I get no sms while the application is open. if the application startup because of an incoming sms and I don't close it for the next 15 minutes (I tested it) I get no sms at all. I have to close the app and then after 10-20 secondes I get the sms in the windows folder ...

Never had thise before, only since the last update.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Rhapsody:
Nazbouh, as I said before: interception is not working properly at the moment. I'm working on it, but it will take some time. I'll let you know when it's ready to be used.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] A&A:
Guys, I would suggest that we let Rhapsody do his work in peace for the time being... I guess that we have pointed out more than enough items and we better wait for his update.

Unless there is something new (not posted before and not anticipated by Rhap himself) I would say that the more space we leave to the developer the sooner we will see a stable/fully featured/non-beta (you name it) v.3.

Agree? :D
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Moe5508:
Nope, don't agree. Continuous feedback especially on this beta is good so he can iron out any bugs and try and incorporate suggestions for better features in the final release...different users may find different issues and better they all get posted here at the same time.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Rhapsody:
I can understand the opinion of B&B lover, but I agree with Moe5508. Just let them coming.

But please remember that v3 is not completed. I uploaded a first preview (let's say CTP) so people could play with it already. (and to make sure that it will not become VoipSMS Forever like Duke Nukem Forever)

Some vital things are simply not working yet. I do my best to build a final version before christmas. But besides this 'hobby-project' I've got more things to do (like work :P) so it's not going very fast. :)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] A&A:
Sorry, but I was convinced that by writing "...Unless there is something new (not posted before and not anticipated by Rhap himself) I would say that the more space we leave... " anybody would have understood what I meant.

Apparently I was wrong.

The message was: If anybody should stumble upon items/bugs which have not been dealt with before, fine, PLEASE DO POST, but to keep on posting/asking Rhap about things which he clearly stated are not yet "fine tuned" in his beta version -EXCUSE ME- but it seems to me like a total waste of time. What is there to disagree about?

All clear now? :D
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] sshark:
amazing app, instead of paying $0.20 for international sms, i now pay $0.04, thanks rhapsody.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Rhapsody:
Thanks. Normally I would have to pay € 0.30 for a single international sms...

At the moment I'm busy with the interception. I've got a little breakthrough now so I expect that I can upload a new version tonight or tomorrow.

After that I'll not have time for a while because I've got a lot of things to do. (work, soccer, work, packing gifts, work, drive to germany for christmas, etc etc)

Also changed already:

- Folders menuitem extended with single items to go to Inbox, Drafts and Sent Items.

- Adjustable fontsize for message text

- Better handling of the SIP (min. 2 lines of text visible (normal textsize))
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] A&A:
Hi Rhapsody,

Nice to see that you are progressing and you added already some useful stuff :D

Sometimes, when receiving a new SMS from somebody who is not on the contact list it is necessary to add manually the new contact.

Do you believe that the "Add SMS Number to Contacts" function could be something to introduce in VoipSMS?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Rhapsody:
I've written it down. Will look to it later. Thanks
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Rhapsody:
Ok, here's a new preview:

- Interception (not completely tested, but should work)

- Folders menuitem extended with single items to go to Inbox, Drafts and Sent Items.

- Adjustable fontsize for message text

- Better handling of the SIP (min. 2 lines of text visible (normal textsize))
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Moe5508:
Great job as always Rhapsody - thanks again for this Christmas release!
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] shortyboy:
bug report:store messages feature doesnt work,it wont save any sent items..
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Rhapsody:
Thanks for the reply.

Here's a new version.

Messages will now be stored after sending.

Further I'll look what is left to be done before I can publish a final version. :)

To the ones interested....

An Italian site

You have just to download an app (similar to this one) obviously WindowsMobile based, but you can use

lots of sites

which offer free sms....;)

For example Frengo, O2-Ireland, JustVoip, InternetCalls.... and the new ones you want share with the community! :D

Give it a try....;)

Cheers...

The result should be a small XML file.

I'll look at it, but unfortunately I can't promise you do look at it this year. :(
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] A&A:
Ha ha ha... Not within this year, uh? Well, I guess we will have to wait for a couple of hours to see your next (year) post then :D:D:D

Just wanted to wish you a very happy, healthy and prosperous 2009, my friend and obviously the same goes to all VoipSMS fans out there!

problem by sending

I couldn't use last version (Setup.cab) for sending messages they always are terminating by done... but No message arrives in INBOX !!! So I decided to remove this version and to reinstall last official version (2.4.0).. By starting this version (after reset) error: VOIPSMS.exe >>> TypeLoadException !!..

So I decided to install it in Storage Card....and all is running well... sending and receiving messages...

I hope you will find a moment (?) to resolve problems on "setup.cab" version...this one is more comfortable to use..

Great JOB :D:D:D
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Rhapsody:
I don't really understand what went wrong. There's nothing different in this setup than any other version...

Are there more people with this problem?
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Rhapsody:
Hi,

Here's the first new version for this year;

- Total number of messages displayed when sending fixed

- Updating accounts did not work.

- Call window: default account is selected

- Call window: select contact fixed

- Call window: focus set to number textfield

- New window for editing recipients (New SMS window -> Menu -> Edit -> Recipients)

This all included in a new setup.cab :-)
