Users of Seven PUSH Mail - Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps

Hi Guys,
Upon a few of the users recommendation i downloaded and have been using Seven for my email.
All going well, but recently i have had my mobile bill and been charged for a few SMS messages,
It appears, i may be wrong though. When you set up the seven email accounts on your HTC Touch Pro, it sends a sms text without you knowing so. I have checked the times and it was when i was setting up the new accounts.
Anyone expierence this? The number in quesiton is :07624802625

I seem to recall that somewhere on the site, or in the set-up it tells you that there is a txt message sent when you set up a new account. To a number in the Isle of Wright, UK if I recall correctly.

When I did my setup I did not allow it to send me a SMS message. The key seems to be to have the invite in your inbox already, gmail in my case, and seven just finds it on its own, so no SMS

Quote from the SEVEN download page:

Hi,
Are anyone using this with WM6.5?

Sending SMS to an email address on 8125--is there a crack?

Does anyone know if there's a way to enable sending emails via the SMS app on the 8125 (without using 36245 as the email address)? If you try to send an SMS to an email (not a phone number), the app tells you it's not allowed. Several of us would like to be able to "chat" via sms with people on BlackBerries (for example) or 2-way pagers that aren't addressable as cell phones. Most other phones allow this, but Cingular has disabled it on the 8125. It certainly works on Cing treos. Doesnt work on 8125 with orig ROM or Summiter's excellent ROM upgrade.
Anyone know if this is a registry edit, or would it require a seperate program? Anyone able and willing to post a solution?
omg i just realized it's not letting me send sms to email addresses either >< I used to use send sms to emails all the time on my treo too >< ahhhh ~ any fixes please

You can always send MMS to email addresses with just text.
I'm curious in today's age why you need to send SMS to email addresses, probably same reason MSFT didn't include it. Can you elaborate more??
There is cross operability with all carriers for text messages so you can just put in the phone number of any mobile device and it'll work.
All Blackberries that are less than 3 years old support SMS over the phone # assigned.
I understand the issue for 2-way pagers but why can't you just send a quick email?
There's a need for SMS to 2-way pagers because sending an SMS is faster to create and send...since email requires a logon and data connection. SMS is the easier way to go if you want to "chat"
Send an SMS to 121
The first thing in the body of the message should be the e-mail address with the subject immediately after, in parentheses. Then a space, then your message. Example: to send an e-mail to [email protected] with a subject of 'billing question' and the body 'Please contact me via phone to discuss my recent bill' you would send the following to 121
[email protected](billing question) Please contact me via phone to discuss my recent bill
Voila!

I won't speak for the original poster, but I'll elaborate with my reason: I'm not an email/internet/IM junkie, and I don't need all that for work, so I don't have a data plan for my 8125 in order to use the real email capability. But, I do have the 100 SMS msg pack on my plan, and I occasionally need to send a quick email to someone when I'm away from the computer and only have my phone. I used this capability on my Nokia6800 all the time, and apparently the Nokia software took care of the special formatting, since all I had to do on it was type in (or select from Contacts) the email address, the subject, and the message. When I started searching today on this issue, I hoped there was a more elegant solution, but I'm perfectly happy with the instructions for a specially formatted SMS message (as long as I can remember them when I need to send an email). I just figured out that I can copy/paste an email address from Contacts, which I suppose will be better than trying to rember one and having to type it, so that's not too bad.
If I really needed to use email a lot from my phone, I guess I'd give in and pay for a data plan, but for now, this SMS trick works just fine.
Edit: almost forgot to say thanks to Hosehead for the tip. Much obliged.

Using Cingular this did not work...
Worked just fine through Cingular for me when I tried it this afternoon. The email I received looked just like the ones I used to send with my Nokia.
Has worked fine for me since I got my 8125. I recommend making sure you have a new "3G" sim, I know some of the older ones restricted SMS e-mail.
It works for me!
I sent the first test to my work e-mail. Apparently the SPAM filters didn't like it.
Second test to personal e-mail worked like a charm. This is nice to know.
well holy shi** i didn't even know you could do that. it had never even crossed my mind that SMS connected to e-mail
brilliant, johnson. brilliant!
I've sent email with mine through text before...
I was messing around with it when I setup my gmail account to forward me emails through text...
not working for me..
Hmm.. this is not working for me on Tmobile with an MDA.. Has anyone had any success with tmobile?

Send text using data plan, send text using internet.

PLease i just realised that i was still getting charged for sending text messages, even though i have tha total intertnet plan from tmobile.
I was just wondering if anyone knows of a program that would let me send text messages bypassing the cellular network, and using my internet,(be it wifi or edge or gprs) to carry the messages.
Kinda like when you use your computer to send texts to phones, is there a program for windows mobile?
thank you in advance
I believe there are a few websites out there to send messages with, tmobile used to have a public SMS application, however I am unsure of any method of "relaying" an SMS message through the included pocket outlook sms handler to one of those sites transparently.
thank you. I still will be awaiting answers.

one approach might be to use an email server to bounce the messages to sms email addresses.
say you use the email side of the messaging app, either through synching to exchange or through a pop, imap or whatever, and point the email at the sms address, I forget what the tmobile address is, but for example it would be like [email protected]
I guess that semi solves the problem without any programming, you would just need each carrier's email address, and specify a return address that would go to your phone for when they SMS back.

previous:H6315(hell in gadget form), Tmo original xda PPCPE.
CaptDistraction, you need to be creative about the 6315; I gave mine to my wife when I upgraded to to 8125. Got rid of the memory hogs and you can't imagine how our relationship has improved, we now talk about the same techy stuff; she complaing, I fixing by the way she no longer complains about how much time I spend with my phone, cause she's now doing the same. Now we have no time to talk to each other...... :twisted:

Haha, I tried every rom out there, I kept the device for a while and finally sold it to support the MDA purchase.
Man I messed with that 6315 to no end, had so much stuff going on with it trying different app combos, spent hours in the registry, no matter how simple I kept it, I couldn't ever get it to answer calls in a timely fashion.
My biggest love with the MDA is when you press that green answer button, it immediately picks up the call.

Free SMS/Text messaging?

Hey guys,
Just been browsing around the net lately and see that you can send free text messages from certain web sites and now i hear ICQ. BUT, I was wondering if anyone here had written a program that will actually use the GPRS connection from our Data Plan to send out text messages? I know its a long shot, but i think it could work.
Reason : When you goto these sites . . (Ex. txtdrop.com; smseverywhere.com; etc) they allow you to send free text messages to almost any wireless carrier, some even just have you put in United States and then the number and it finds it for you. So i was thinking . . . Why not make a program that will do the same thing using those web-sites or something, and instead of putting your name in where it says "you name" you just have it put in your wireless number so they can respond. SO, ur only getting charged for receiving txt messages.
I thought this up because i am with cingular myself here is the USA, and their plans are either 4.99 for 200 messages sent and received, or 19.99 for 3,000 sent and received!!! I already pay 39.99 for my F***IN unlimited data plan, WHY NOT USE IT!!!! If anyone can think of a way to get this to work, that would be AMAZING!!
I've heard there are programs that use ICQ to send and recieve free texts to phones but i haven't found anything for Windows Mobile. If someone knows of a way, or can think of an easy fix, please feel free to let me know ASAP!
i was speaking with a cingular sales manager i worked with. at the time my tmobile contract was up. and she wanted me to switch bad.. and i said only thing in my way is hte lack of unlimited txt msging. and she called around and talk to her bosses and they told her nothing they can do cingular doesnt believe enough people txt more than 3000 txt in an out a month and i resigned with tmobile 9.99 unlimited on all my family plan phones. as far as a company stand point they wont offer fair txt rates to anyone. but i doubt you can send txt via data it has to be done on a cellular level. maybe those sites have a server set up to acually connect to a wireless network at some point and push out those txt msgs
set up a push email account that is free like i have from mail2web. now here is the secret. you can email a text message to any phone with (phone number)@(serviceprovider).com but who actually knows what service their friends have. a service from teleflip will automatically convert the domain name to the proper provider. so all u have to do is email the [email protected] through push and they can reply back and it will go to your push email box.
i even saved my most used friends teleflip phone number as an email address so i can quickly communicate with them

Please check your PM to help me out with this. I know ur probably busy, but it would not only benefit me, but EVERY person on thuis board with cingular!! Thanx soo much
1) How to setup push e-mail on my phone (8125 running 3.3 V2 rom)
a. i set it up in activesync. connect device. tools/add server source and for the server type mobile.exchange.mail2web.com and the username is your [email protected]
domain:ad2 password is the one u made
2) Do i need to have a particular kind of e-mail? Like a special yahoo account? (Cause i don't think yahoo or hotmail allow you to grab you FREE e-mail account using pop3 or smtp) Or can I get one at that Mail2web.com site? If so, where?
a.you want mail2web live which is free. u can also set your other email to forward to your mail2web account. ex. i forward my yahoo mail to my mail2web which is pushed to my phone
3) When someone receives the text message, will they be sending a text back to me and will i be charged for that text? Or will it be sent automatically back to that e-mail address and then i can have it grabbed by push e-mail and cost me nothing?
a. yes if the other person presses reply to the text you get it sent back to your push email box which makes it free.
4) is there a big delay in how long it takes them to get the text sending it this way? (ie. is it slower then sending it through sms on my phone?)
a. never actually tested but i imagine it probably a little more time because it runs though a couple of extra servers. though very minimal. maybe an extra minute at most. i can still have conversations with the push email/txt solution
here is a tip:
when sending a email txt to someone for the first time. put your name at the end. they probably will have no clue who u are and let them know to hit reply when they msg u back
Moderators . . STICKY???
I mean, who doesn't want free text messaging!!
Been doing it for 2 days now and it works almost flawlessly. Sometimes people don't get them for a little while, but i can live with an extra 3 min to save myself the 19.99 3000 limit!!!!
I still have my 4.99 200 msg serice so my friends can text me at will, but i will ALWAYS reply back by this method to save texts!
Grinny11 deserves all credit for this!!! I just brought it out into the open!
Thanx Grinny11!! U DA MAN!!
looks good
but is here uk version of this has anyone found a web site in uk that wil work the same way as ive tested this and it dont work for me with 0797 ect or +44797ect

Notification on outlook email?

I get my emails though Outlook Exchange.
Is there any way to set up a notification so that if an email arrives from a particular address then the phone will alert me with a sound or a message on the screen or both?
I'm waiting for an email about a job so would like to know the second it arrives
You have to use a program called "phonealarmSP" and set up a custom email notification in it. Google...
or use watchflag:
www.watchflag.com
I was about to purchase watchflag myself, but the FAQ states that the license is tied to your phone.
The license you receive is tied to the phone that generated the Registration Code. It cannot be transferred to any other phone.

This is too restrictive in that if you lose your phone, upgrade it or get a warrantly replacement, your registration would be invalid due to the new hardware ID. I have emailed their support asking if they would verify this.
EDIT: I received verification that this is the case. However, they are open to suggestions to improve the registration process.

Alerts for incoming e-mails - specific address

Hey...
I asked this question a while back in the PPC6700 forums when I had that device on WM5...never found an answer. I'm hoping something has changed in that time frame.
I want to be able to have audible alerts for incoming e-mail, but ONLY from specific senders. Using SMS is not an option.
So, for instance if I get an email from [email protected] it will ring an alarm (at 3am and wake me up) but if is an e-mail from anyone else it will stay silent.
Any way to do this, even if I have to purchase an additonal application?
thx!
I realize that its name, Photo Contacts Pro, is a bit misleading, but this is a very powerful/flexible program that will do exactly what you're looking for. Take a look at its incarnations at the vendor's website and decide for yourself -- there's alot there to read:
http://xxx.pocketx.com
Thanks Mark,
Are you 100% sure that this application can do what I ask?
I looked on their website and their features list that you can assign distinctive Ring and SMS tones to different contacts. It doesn't mention anything about e-mail.
I would plan on using pocket outlook with push mail from an Exchange server...so I really think it would be the function of the mail client to differentiate one incoming e-mail from another. Maybe there is a more feature rich e-mail client that has this functionality?
If you have actually done what I have asked (distinctive alerts to specific EMAIL addresses), then I will download the demo and see what I can do...
thanks again!

Hate to disappoint but it will not do that. This software currently operates on incoming caller id (sms has that also) not email address. I did suggest the use of email to them in addition to sms so they may someday do some work on it but not now.
Although I don't currently know of anything that will do what you want (which doesn't mean it isn't available) you MAY be able to get around the limitation.
I would try having the exchange server fire out a short note or even a forward of the email to your phone's sms address. They all have the ability to get the email as sms albeit it would be chopped to 160 chars. Now, if you can identify the source of the incoming sms via caller id you can indeed use photocontacts by creating a special profile with silence being the default for all contacts except the exchange server forwards. This way the incoming sms will set off the alarm which will tell you to check your email.
Hey, better than nothing, no?
eh..yeah thanks NY... I was afraid of that answer.
What we did for our alerting system previously was have the alerts sent to the phone mail/SMS address and all other e-mails to our normal exchange. This way we would turn on SMS alerts and turn off e-mail. It does work, but not the ideal solution. It would be so simple to have this functionlity in pocket Outlook as a "rule" too bad they haven't gotten there yet!
thanks
having that kind of selection hasn't gotten that far yet, don't forget this is a pocket pc with phone capabilities

I'm aware of a couple of programs that will alert based on email sender, subject, etc. The first is Message Alerts, and the second is Watchflag. I've never used Watchflags before, but it looks pretty good. I used Message Alerts back when I had a RIM Blackberry. It worked perfectly.
Try also phoneAlarm V2.0 not 1.66 from http://www.pocketmax.net
This is a new option in V2.0
Beautiful guys thanks! All 3 look like they will do what i want (from description) I will try them out.
thanks again!
bengalih, thanks for the link. Question for you, did you ever try one of these programs? I guess my request is a little different than yours was in that I am not trying to notify by email address but simply by email account. So one notification for my Yahoo, another for my daughters and yet another for work. If one of these apps can accomplish this, then that would be great. Thanks again.
Email notification
This is only mildly related, but I want my new email notification to show the sender and/or subject line and not just "You have ## new email messages..."
I can't find any notification settings that would adjust this. Any suggestions?
