Another request feature: to get all the phonebook contacts(numbers,name) existing in phone(mobile) memory,because that is where the common person is saving new contacts,and not in SIM card memory

That could lead to quick recovering of a stolen wm phone(I will find out numbers for friends and coworkers of the thief--info important for the police,also)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] emariu:
This is a usefull feature to have,if Joubert can implement it:

We can actually listen LIVE to the thieve's phone conversation with his buddy,

by auto-initiating a hidden callback,when the thief try to call someone( by joining an ongoing call with hidden-conference call to my number and listen phone conversation in real-time) :)

This feature can be activated/deactivated by a sms command

Another version for this(activation only for some specified numbers):

1) You specify the numbers you suspect could be most interesting from who the thief is trying to call(after you remotelly get Call History)

2) When any calls to or from these numbers are placed or received, RT will send an SMS to your cell phone, alerting you that there is a call in place that contains one of the numbers you flagged(interested)

3) Now all you have to do is call the target cellphone, and you'll be secretly added to the call(auto accepting my call as 3rd conference call)

remote tracker + cooked rom

tested the latest version. can cook my rom, but i had to make a shortcut to smslauncher in windows \ startup, because my diamond did not recognize HKLM / INIT linking to SMSLauncher.

I chose to run the files from the windows folder, maybe so rtremote does not work (as if the remote tracker was not installed). Despite this small problem, I have done tests with messages, everything works perfectly, in quiet mode, including the file smslaunchdebug.

you know how to recognize the remote tracker rtremote cooked in my rom?

thanks.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Noonski:
If you have BootLauncher cooked in you can try that start method

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\BootLauncher\Apps\SMSLauncher]

"Module"="\\Windows\\smslauncher.exe"
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] TinTin:
Great piece of software - worked straight away on my Topaz (Touch Diamond2).

2 requests came to my mind so far (probably more later)

1. Being able to (temporarily) deactivate/suspend all remote activity.

I'm using your software on my own device and I allow certain people tracking me at certain times, but not at others. Of course they could just use the "findme" and I could deny, but I'd rather not have to answer those requests when I know I don't want to be tracked.

So either being able to suspend the remote activities or implementing a time table would be helpful (2nd option is more work of course)

2. I noticed the data connection (after an email is sent per request) is not dropped. Would be nice, if the data connection is automatically dropped after the email is sent out (or ftp session ended or whatever needed the connection).

Thanks,

Tin

What do you think of my suggestions that I made in posts 1489-1490 and 1491 ?? Can you implement these?

At least call forwarding,is it easy to implement?

I think that the problem with sorting days for Call History command is sorted out( I received the last " X" logs from call history),

but NOT sorted with the Get Audionotes Files.I received(by FTP) the first "X" audionotes files,which is not good.

I looked in incoming and outgoing folders on the phone and the order there is just wierd..(randomly jumping from an oldert date to a newer and again to an older one..etc)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] moesfeld:
I just had an Idea jumping trough my head,

many thieves may not be intelligent enough or simply don´t want to set up a internet connection when putting their sim into the phone.

How about making remote tracker set it up.

What I was thinking of is that upon a command remote tracker can detect which network the device is on and sets up an Internet connection.

The settings for modem and internet connection could be defined trough a xml for the different providers. (Collecting the Informations could be done by the users)

If the provider settings were not found it will send back a sms with the provider name.

Then there could be a command for setting up an internet connection manually.

I think this would only work with non-password protected settings for providers but most of the Internet setting are that way.

Allso a live tracking feature via ftp would be nice (or maybe near live updating every 40 seconds.)

Maybe a simple plugin for firefox (Well simple for coders nor for me)

Upon a command RT creates a file every 20 seconds with the phones coordinates and sends it to an ftp. (Maybe RT.cor)

The Firefox plugin (when activated) will read that file and open a google maps weppage with these coordinates. Then it will update the map in the browser with the coordinates from the file every 20 seconds. (This would give us a maximum delay of 40 seconds)

(I recognised that entering new coordinates in the search field dosen´t need a full refresh of the page but somehow the plugin would need to lock user input on that tab so there will be no interference by the user. Also the user should be able to change the standard zoom factor and to disable the left controlpanel of google maps).

But maybe a plugin for google earth is even easier (Not working with .kzm but with (near) live tracking.

Thx for this awesome app feels a lot saver with this.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] joubertvasc:
Your ideas are very good and I added them to my TODO list. Unfortunatelly I'm not free to code now, but as soon as possible I'll start next full version.

Thanks!

Joubert
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] moesfeld:
Cool to hear you like my ideas. I searched a little and found out that google earth already has the feature inbuild that we need for live tracking.

It is called "Network Link" it basicly reads a kml file from the web and updates it every x seconds.

So RT would only need to create a kml file with the current position and upload it to ftp every lets say 20 seconds.

In google earth I would only need to add a network link to the kml on my ftp and set refresh to 10 sec.

The KML would look like this

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<kml xmlns="http://www.opengis.net/kml/2.2">

<Placemark>

<name>MyPhone</name>

<description>Attached to the ground. Intelligently places itself

at the height of the underlying terrain.</description>

<Point>

<coordinates>-122.0822035425683,37.42228990140251,0</coordinates>

</Point>

</Placemark>

</kml>
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] joubertvasc:
Thanks the tip, but I already know how Google Earth works when using links. The problem is RT will need a web server to control the last position and it has an expensive charge this project can't pay for. I think to implement something in this way, but the users must have their own server.

I'm working in a commercial software to use that feature. Time to make money :D

All the best,

Joubert
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] moesfeld:
Yes that is what I was thinking of.

Just using the aready inbuild ftp feature for uploading the kml and overwriting it every x seconds.

I think nowerdays pretty much every user can get hold of a little ftp enabled webspace so let em use their own.

No commercial software I know has the features this great software offers so I think going commercial is the most logical way. I don´t care for the money because it can save a lot more when the phone gets stolen or lost:)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] joubertvasc:
I will change the FGP and EGP commands to send the KML file ;) Very easy.

About charge, I was talking about a NEW project for spefic usage. RemoteTracker will never be charged. :o

@joubertvasc

I really love your software but i have one little problem.... I am using Ringomobile to have individually sms tones so when i get a sms with rt command it still says i have a new text message. sooooo i was hoping you want want to add a feature that would allow us to have individually sms tones that would not go off if it was an rt command something like mortring. In either case thanks for the software i love it.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] joubertvasc:
Sorry, but I don't think I can do something about it. RT does not catch any SMS, Windows Mobile does and start RT automatically. I just set rules to do it. :(

cellid location

hey, firstly this software is really something.

I've had no issues except a mini one.

when I get my cellid location and convert it through opencellid api, I am actualy far away from were I am, but in the trackme application it gets it right,

so any tips on getting cellid to get my position better?

thanks

I use windows mobile 6.5 build 23001. I have a question, maybe you can help me: I'm cooking in my remote tracker rom among the registry, must put this line [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\init]

"Launch99" = "\Windows\smslauncher.exe" However, after the flash rom, looking in registry and I do not see this line.

also tried this: [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\HTC\BootLauncher\Apps\SMSLauncher]

"Module" = "\\Windows\\smslauncher.exe" but without success. the interesting thing is that the other registry are recognized as: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\JVSoftware\Common]

"RT 0" = "Saturday,February07,2009"

you know how to help me?

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] joubertvasc:
You are getting some position someone sent to OpenCellID. That service will tell you the position someone find before.

You can use the OpenCellClient project and make your own list of towers.

All the best,

Joubert
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] joubertvasc:
Please take a look in your registry and look for HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Inbox\Rules and verify if the key Configuration exists. If so, copy here the values.

This is the configuration RT does to catch SMS.

Also, be sure you are using version 0.4.0-15.

All the best,

Joubert
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] joubertvasc:
Please note the correct key is

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\JV Software\Common]

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] marendo:
First of all, thanks for your reply :)

I'm using version 0.4.0-15.

Yes, there is a key Configuration (only this key), the content is:

------------------------------------------------------------------------

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\Software\Microsoft\Inbox\Rules\Configuration]

"Params"="/hide"

"PostProcess"=dword:00000001

"Command"="\\Archivos de programa\\Configurations\\rt.exe"

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\Software\Microsoft\Inbox\Rules\Configuration\MessageFilter]

@="Body"

"CaseSensitive"=dword:00000000

"MatchType"=dword:00000006

"Value"="rt#"

------------------------------------------------------------------------

I send a SMS with "rt#gi" and the SMS is received and notification to me like a normal SMS (not silent mode), so it seems RT did not catches the command.

I activate the debug mode, but I don't see any debug file in \Archivos de programa\Configurations\

EDIT: RTRemote works in test mode and a file rtdebug.txt is created

Thanks

P.D. Sorry for my english (I'm from Spain)

I have exactly the same problem as the previous poster. I noticed a thread on Sourceforge where you said the users should try some older version (08 I think it was, I'm running 15 now). Is there any mirror where I can download and try that one? I would really like to get this software working, I'm running Itje's Touch-IT ROM v10.4 and I don't think something intercepts the messages before RT can do, but I have asked in the ROM's thread.

If I send the rt#gp command to my WM-device with remote-tracker running on it, and the device does not get a satellite connection, it actually should establish the GMS-internet connection to get the cell-id data from opencell…

However this automatic dialup does not happen…

What is wrong here?

All other applications on the device are doing the auto-dialup, if the need an internet-connection.

Only remote-tracker does not.

Result is, that if the device cannot connect to satellites, I do not get any replay at all, instead of the cellid-data.

For what it's worth I've just tried swapping over to a new SIM and RT successfully detected it and sent an SMS with the tracking info. I'm running v0.4.0.15.

Have you enabled debugging etc to see if anything gets captured when you put a new SIM in? Can the config tool auto-detect the new SIM (and presumably it's not already on your allowed list)?
