Okay, this may be a stupid question, but I can't seem to find any information about it in these forums. I was just wondering whether anyone had found an app or was developing something that allowed us to backup up SMS messages on our Windows Phone 7 HD7s (wow, realised that was a mouthful).
I did find it intriguing that while reading the FAQs on HTC's UK HD7 support page, that under 'How Can I Backup my SMS?' it said:
Please search for a 3rd party software that will have this functionality. You can search using Marketplace by Tapping on START > All apps > Marketplace. Search for the keyword SMS backup.

So I tried exactly what they said. And got nothing. Diddlysquit. Anyone got any ideas?

Whats up guys, the other day i was searching this forum and I found an application that allowed you to set different sms notifications for different senders as well as email and a few other things and now I cannot find it for the life of me, anybody have the link to that thread? thanks
I've never heard of this but would be really cool to have on my Touch Pro, what device did you see it on before?

It wasn't an app, it was just an idea that someone came up. But it was never done. It was just an idea of development Although I don't think it's useful, but would love to see how they pull it out.
Different notifications TO YOU you mean?
What is the point?
Except if you mean auto reply to them (SMS or EMail) based on who they are.
CommManagerPro (you'll find it in XDA Devs) is adding this functionality in the next version (among other things).
Try Ringo. Its a WinMo software that enables you to set separate ringtones and SMS tones for each separate contact. The user interface is very very simple, it is a great application to have and use. Either try searching for it Google, or you might be able to find it on this forum using search.

No I meant like how you have custom ringtones for your contacts, I could have sworn I saw a thread with an app that allowed you to set custom SMS tones for your contacts instead of just one default SMS sound, but the other guy said it was just a concept for an application, :-(
Interesting idea.

as already stated - RINGO is an app that can do this for you.
Ok so, I can't remember the name of the app, but its features were:
You were able to send a SMS to your phone to, relay your current GPS position, turn on features like location, wifi, call log, and other such features, all through SMS commands.
I am NOT referring to "Where's My Android"
I could swear "track" was in the title, but I could be wrong. Anyone know what app I'm talking about? It's been updated recently in the past week or 2, I just didn't see it when I was browsing the apps.
EDIT: Actually I think I might be refering to SMS Commander, however I can't find it anywhere on the market? Anyone have a copy of the apk?
are you reffering to PinTail?
No, I think it was SMS Commander, I just can't seem to find it anywhere on the Market now....
I can't seem to find all the other apps like Phonebook and Hello AIM.
What's going on?
SMS Commander is now a paid app, $2.99. There's also a Hello IM!, $9.99. PhoneBook is still there and free.
GPS Tracker fits some of those features, but not all.

xSeri, that's odd. do you have paid apps showing up yet? I just used the search feature for "SMS Commander" "Hello" and "PhoneBook" and came up with those. Just installed the phonebook one

i will wait one week or something to see if all works well before root =) thanks a lot
Most, if not all of your questions could be answered by some searching. Thus I'll be really short. If you google "must have applications nexus one", you'll get everything you need.
1. Dialer One.
2. Fring.
3. No. Buy GPS navigation software.
4. SMS Backup for messages, and for contacts - did you understand the concept of Android, keeping the contacts in the cloud?
5. SMS Popup for SMS tones.

Your contacts, calendar, picasa photos, and gmail are all automatically synced with Google's servers over the air. You don't need to back any of that up.

incorrect.
ASTRO File Manager looks similar to Resco Explorer. It's free for now, but they may decide to charge for it later.

Well, it was a short version, yes?
Navigation works properly in some countries, not only in US. Not around the globe. AFAIK, it's currently functional w/o hacks only in US and UK.
Brut hack can be installed to make it work, but it's not guaranteed to work properly.

[Q] [PATCH REQUEST] Add ADD "SENDING NETWORK TIMESTAMP" OPTION to received SMS
Dear all,
the problem is simple...as is possible to notice, when sms arrive the displayed time is the received and not the sent one...
this fact is valid for all the new generation smartphones, iPhone included..
=> I really hate this fact because sometimes happens that my phone is off or it has not signal and, after the signal is back again, I receive tons of SMS with the same time....and perhaps some of them all already "expired" since they are referred to a past event...
old phones like Nokias, ecc. displayed ALWAYS the "sent time" and not the "received one"...
I've seen that has been already opened an issue on the Android Dev Code : http ://code. google. com/p/android/issues/detail?id=2989
what is more interesting to observe is that seems the base SMS application (but also Handcent SMS) uses the local handset time for the date called thru System.currentTimeMillis()...(http ://code. google .com/p/android/issues/detail?id=2989#c40)
and, as I've seen ([http ://code. google .com/p/android/issues/detail?id=2989#c39) it is possible to set the "network time" using the Android.Telephony.smsMessage.getTimestampMills()
now..could someone look into this issue and try to write a patch for our Galaxy S (but also for other phones should be the same..)? because I've not so much time and I'm not very familiar with Android code..
thank you very much,
Alessandro
up
please...could someone consider this? don't you think it's an interesting feature?
I would like this feature .
I for one would welcome this change.
I'll try to write some code today and see if I can read the timestamp.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
I would like to see this in action too. I'm fed up of Android not supporting some of the most basic cell phone features .

many thanks
and I think it will also useful for all the Android community!!
oh... i used to view the properties of the msg to read the sent time with nokix, already forgot that it should be sent time but not rec time
Where is possible to find the sources of the native Android SMS application?
Could anyone post them (or something similar?)..then I'll try to hack the code
If i remember correct, the HTC Desire did not have this issue with default sms client.
Hope someone will find a fix for this annoying issue soon.
Possible fix
I know it's a little late but I found an app called SMS Timestamper Fix that seems to be working so far and it's free. Hope this helps.

Thanks for this one!
Bump. I once had a mms.apk that had the sent timestamp instead of received timestamp. Now no developer knows how to recreate it.
Tried to do a search but can't really find anything that matches. My friend had a blackberry and he was showing me the action logs on it which shows what has been clicked and press or what/when apps had been ran/installed, etc. Something quite similar to like in windows event viewer or file auditor.
I was wondering if we have such apps. I am not talking about catlog and all those logging stuffs as they display way too much things.
Nearest that i can get are those spy logging apps which doesnt really serve the purpose here.
Any ideas guys?

So i conclude there really isnt any apps that do this out there for android?

You might get the response you're after if you post or search in the android general forum. Its not really an incredible s specific question.
