Thank you for your support. :)

Yeah, the deleting the SMS is not allowed using the dotnet framework as of now. But there are other ways to achieve this(using win32 programming). Since I am not an expert on win32 programming it's still a pending item. But I will keep that request in mind

hi!

I really like the concept of this app!! What I am trying to do, is let a text message from a friend trigger skype. I've managed to start skype, but if wm has no internet connection, skype asks if a connection should be established, which requires manual input. the point is that my friend and me both, we both have different provides and we t's very costly for us to call each other... we both have skype on our phones and would like to call each other over that prog. but it's a hassle to always send texts and start it manually. does anyone have an idea to how to do tthis?

i'm no programmer, and i have no idea what's up with the "arguments", maybe these are the solution?

Right now i have a different setup which kinda works:

SMSRunner triggers both skype and a prog called ICE (Internet connection establisher). If there is a connection already running running when skype is launched skype doesn't ask to establish it and automatically connects... but sometimes it just doesn't work and sometimes the phone freezes, and smsrunner is a trial...

hope someone has some solutions, or likes the idea and figures something out ;)

TouchFlo3D-HTCTouchPro

The one problem I see is accessing rk-SMS Switch from a modified Today screen, like HTC's TouchFlo3D. TouchFlo doesn't seem allow adding programs to the Today screen, and doesn't seem to allow one to bypass in order to get to the default Today screen. Thus far, I can access the OTR application from the applications menu, but not the SMS Switch.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tytnguy:
Next version I will make it launchable from the standard program shortcuts.. so that it will be launchable from any program.. :)

Any update?

I just discovered this wonderful application and really like it!

Any update?

Thanks
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Xue v.2:
yea any updates? and is it true that this program consume 30% of CPU load?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] ecard:
30% of CPU load, no! When I was using push mail, my battery was going from full charge to 20% within 5~6 hours.

Now with this program, I can stay at 70% for 10 hours :)

So, if it was running at 30% CPU load, I would notice that.

Now, to be able to delete triggering SMS would be nice :)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Xue v.2:
can't it be done by any sms filtering program?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] ecard:
I guess, do you have one to recommend?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tytnguy:
You can try if any other utility availble to delete the SMS's.

Since Visual Studio does not allow deleting SMS messages I am not able to implement that feature.(though it would have been nice feature)

:)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Xue v.2:
Ok, I'll test it first...

tq for the replies :)

Do you know a SMS filtering tool?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] koz:
I came across this app this morning by accident, and what a great surprise! I don't know how I missed this one. Great, great concept - much better than having to host two places like with Tmobile's sms trigger.

I'm using Gmail, so going by the settings on the first post, this should be pretty straight forward for setup. However, it's not working for me. I've set up forwarding w/ Gmail with my phone email address, set up the info in rk-sms, but nothing. I get the sms from Gmail, but it doesn't seem to be triggering Outlook. Any thoughts? (by the way, I'm using a 6.1 rom in case that makes any difference).
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] computerjunkie:
What do you mean visual studio does not allow deleting sms messges? What language are you programming in. If it is c# or any other managed code language this may help you:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa446561.aspx

Look about half way down. You can delete an incoming message and mark it as handled so that it doesn't' show up in the inbox and no notification is sent. Then when your application syncs the mail, it can send the notification to the user that new mail has arrived.

The folowing is what I am referring to:

// Delete the message and mark it as handled so it won't show up in Inbox

hr = DeleteMessage(pMsgStore,

pMsg,

cbMsg,

lpMsg,

cbDestFolder,

lpDestFolder, pulEventType, pHandled);

Good luck and great application! Very Creative!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] hween123:
This is a great program. As far as deleting the trigger SMS, I wonder how smartphone tracker handles this function?

http://smartphonetracker.blogspot.com/

I'm on a touch diamond and I have to disable touchflo3d to set up the program, but that's not the end of the world (once I figured it out).

Thanks!

I use Watchflag, I set it up to NOT notify me when I receive a new email through SMS and to mark the SMS as read. rk-SMS launch the send and receive for my Gmail account. Then Watchflag will notify me if a new email is received.

Watchflag is a very nice tool, check it at http://www.watchflag.com
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] hween123:
Watchflag sounds like it might do the trick, but I was thinking of a single software solution.

Hopefully - one day - some of the "background" functionality of Smartphone Tracker can be written in to rk-SMS Switch. The SMS would come, be marked as read or deleted in the background based on some filter values, pocket outlook would do it's send/receive, I would have my email notification.

If you happen to have your own domain and have access to cpanel, here is an interesting way to forward your emails to a script. That script can be altered to have a "trigger" subject line to work with the proposed filter capability of rk-SMS Switch (I can dream can't I)

http://www.willmaster.com/blog/perl/forwarding-email-to-a-script.php
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] ecard:
Watchflag added Mark as Read after I suggested it, I also suggested to add the option to execute a command similar to rk-SMS. It could then mark the SMS as read then sync your mail :) You could even query your your phone from distance using mortscript or use imagination.

This app is just what I need. I did not know that it even exists. And there is also this cryptic name that does not say what is it about :) Anyway, good work.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tytnguy:
Update 1.0.3

Finally decided to work on the rk-SMS switch based on the inputs from you all. Thank you all for encouragement.

Now I think I have almost everyone asked for. Please test it and let me know

Version 1.0.3

Now the triggerring SMS are automatically removed from your inbox! All normal SMS will only appear in the SMS inbox.

Now the application can be activated by the menu short cuts etc. No need to go to today screen. New option added to put it to tray or not.

Not tested much as I do not have SMS plans to play with each SMS i send to test get charged :eek:

Cheers

:)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] drtwin:
Nice update. However, the installation is several times larger than the previous one (1153 KB). Is there a particular reason?

UPDATE: A serious bug: the settings are lost after soft reset!!!

DrTwin
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tytnguy:
The size may be because of the fact that I have migrated to WM6 files(the old install used WM5 files)

Regarding the bug... You must save the settings after you change anything before you exit out application

Let me know if thats not the case.

EDIT: Yes I confirmed that its not saving the settings.. So I will do a quick fix and post the update soon...
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tytnguy:
1.0.3 re-released

Ok now 1.0.3 is working(I think :D)

Just uploaded the latest build..

File size back to normal(it had lot of debug info.. removed it)

Now the settings are saving as before.

:)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] hween123:
Fantastic! Donation just sent via paypal. Thanks so much.

This is a fantastic way to use SMS to get push email (or push-like email) working perfectly on windows mobile (my HTC Touch Diamond)!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] hween123:
One slight issue I just noticed:

The program now shows up in my task manager and is accidentally closeable, whereas before it just ran all the time and was not accessible from the task manager (which would be preferred)

edit:

Solved by selecting show Icon at Tray
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] drtwin:
Everything works fine. I'll keep testing it.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tytnguy:
Thanks hween123, I appreciate that. ;)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tytnguy:
hween123,

The behavior you are describing is by design.

On WM when application is hidden by code it can not be accessed by any other means that's why initially I had put it into tray icon. but now with the 'touch flow' and other full screen today widgets people find it difficult to access it. So new setting to 'hide' or 'minimize'. When you minimize it will behave just like any other WM app(will be visible in task manager) If you are using HTC task manager make sure to make rk-SMS Switch as 'Exclusive' program so that you do not accidentally close it. But opting the 'Tray Icon' you will not be able to bring it up front(show) other than clicking the tray icon. On the other hand by being minimized only, you can bring it up just by clicking on rk-SMS link from menus and shortcuts.

Hi, I'm currently experiencing a problem. If rk-sms is running, I stop receiving SMS message. My device turns ON, but does nothing, no new SMS. I have to uninstall it to be able to get my SMS again !

Really like your app! What's happening ?

Thanks

Show Icon at Tray? : no

format of the sms notification:

From : 6245
Un nouvel e-mail de : xxxxxx

great app ! donation on the way!

one feauture request... it would be great if there was a timer on it, so that i didnt get emails from say midnight to 8am.

Great thanks alot!
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Rel54:
I try your settings (I already tried it) but it does not work. Sms notification remains in the inbox.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Ideal2545:
make sure the actual app is running, and make sure you delete any old test sms before you test again.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Rel54:
I found the problem.

The format of the sms notification is different from the one sent from another phone.

If I send a normal SMS, the filter works.

I am looking for a solution and I tell you when I find.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Rel54:
I can not find a solution.

by removing the display thread, SMS notification and sms normal appear identical.

But I can not filter the contents of the sms notification.

Any news on this problem?

Thanks
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tytnguy:
Sorry Guys, Not able to find out why for Rel54 no messages trapped, and for ecard all the messages trapped..!

Basically you need to play arround with the setttings. ecard make sure your parameters not too loose for eg just a charector 'a' where almost any message will be trapped.

I am not finding enough time to test it... But I will definitly look more deeper ...

:)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] ecard:
Hi tytnguy, not a problem :) But, my problem is more that I stop receiving SMS !!! My parameter are set to sync if I get ###NewEmailNotify### in the subject line. It was working fine for a while, but now it stops working... I'm also trying to see what is the problem on my side :)

Thanks for your help and support.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tytnguy:
ecard, Just a quick note, rk-SMS just catches the sms 'From' and 'Body' not the subject line. Make sure to have the parameters set properly.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] Rel54:
My provider has changed its format SMS.

Since yesterday, it works perfectly. SMS are properly intercepted.

Before, I had the same problem with Magicall. So it came from my provider.

It would be great to have a log file of SMS filtered

Wow, I dont know how I missed this amazing app, this works so much better for me than keeping the data connection connected all day for push email.

One question though, is it possible to set this up where it will automaticly disconnect the data connection after it's done syncing?

Regarding the data disconnection, there is a reg tweak to disconnect after certain secs of gprs inactivity. Try that out

I set up this program to open my outlook and it works great. Thanks. Just wondering how I can get any sort of notification to work with this. Like a sound, blinking LED..etc when I receive emails?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tytnguy:
I could not understand your question properly. If you are asking how to setup notification such as blinking led, sound etc when you receive emails, then you have to set it up at 'Sound and Notification' setup screen at Start/Settings
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] stuspick:
Sorry about that. What I mean is that right now your program opens up my outlook in it's inbox and downloads the messages and I guess automatically marks them as read so I am unable to get any notification. I have setup Incoming email notification to include blinking LED and sound.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tytnguy:
Hmm .. that's odd! rk-SMS switch should just sync the emails not mark them as read. It should only block the sms notifications but not email notifications. Since I am not using this utility I do know for sure what's happening. Hope someone else using this utility comments or confirms this.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] mickey78:
This look like a nice app. But how do you get GMAIL to notifies your cell when new mail has arrived? I mean I understand that I can FOWARD the entire email to my 1234567890@carrier.com but I'm gonna receive the sms in multiple small parts and I have no control over the body or the from so I dont know of a way to catch it with this app.

If gmail would permit me to setup an email notification then I would be happy. This way, I could say, that when gmail receive a new mail, send a notification to my sms number with this or that inside the body, then it would be easy to catch it from the app on the device.

So how do you guys achieve this?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] berutti:
great app!

i'd suggest adding a sort of action table, easily configurable like a txt file with for example three fields:

TXT_CONTAINS COMMAND ARGS

for each line. maye args may be written like "-arg1 %1 -arg2 %2" to get arguments from sms.

what do you think about this? it may convert our device in a powerful sms triggerable system
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tytnguy:
mickey,

Well I know lot of guys using gmail account with this utility, so some one would definitely help you here. There is a short tutorial posted here...

http://pocketnow.com/wiki/Windows_Mobile_All_Devices_Tips_and_Tricks#Email

by someone.

But i feel when the mail is forwarded, the forwarded mail's from address might contain 'gmail' tag, so if you use 'gmail' as your filter for from address, it might work.

As i said earlier I do not use this utility so i can not be sure.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tytnguy:
berutti,

Thanks for suggestion

Right now you can have any number of arguments for a given commanline, but now only one command line is executed. Are you saying support for multiple commandlines?

If so yes, may be in the next release :cool:
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] berutti:
hi,

yes...multiple command lines... the aim is...for example.. you forgot your phone in the office and want to shut off volume and vibration.

you have an hypotetical application which can by commandline set volume and vibration like

setvolume.exe -vol 5 -vibration ON

the SMS may be formatted like

VOLUME 0 OFF

the action_table.txt entry might be:

...

"VOLUME" "setvolume.exe" "-vol %1 -vibration %2"

^ keyword ^ command ^ args with (or without) dynamic parameters

...

by meaning %1 %2 ...%n the 1st to n-th argument passed via sms after the command word..

resulting that

setvolume.exe -vol 0 -vibration OFF

is executed

do you like the idea? ;) ok it may seem a bit too "nerd" :):) for the common user to edit a .txt config file...maybe it could be another option between (command / option / action table)

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] egoist6:
does this app work when sms is in threaded mode?

or maybe i have a fundamental misunderstanding of this app.

what i want to do is to intercept any incoming sms with certain text in the message body (and it has nothing to do with push like emails).

i have tried it with "test" and got sms sent to me containing "test" but it does not launch the app.

can anybody help?

furthermore i am irritated by the dat file. field "Enabled" is permanently "false".

i am using touch hd (wvga) on wm6.5

thanks

for your help
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tytnguy:
Don't get irritated :D by the "Enabled" flag set as False, Its not used so just ignore that setting.

Only one thing that might be causing you problem is .... You are closing the SMS Switch application, the SMS Switch application needs to be running in the background to capture the SMS. So after setting the parameters you have to click menu option "Minimize" so that application listens to SMS.

Hope this will solve your issue.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] egoist6:
hi tytnguy,

thanks for your answer.

i definitively have your app running in the background. i can see this in the taskmanager's exlusive programs list (i have set your app as exclusive).

but even when not setting to exclusive it still does not work.

could wm6.5 be the problem?

i send a SMS to that pda an get a reply with the actual gps coordinates

possible?

Sound Notification

My email audible notification no longer works. How can I get it to work with this program?
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tytnguy:
This is a generic program which intercepts the SMS and does invoke external applications/actions. So if you are able to link it to external app/action which can trigger reply SMS with th GPS cordinates then Yes it will work. But you have to do it yourself.

:)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] tytnguy:
This application supposed to trap only the SMS, not the emails. May be your sound settings on the device need to be checked.
