heh...lol i could of used something like that for my girlfriend..i mean X girlfriend
visual studio 6 has great ce tools maybe you could write one for us! but really lol i dont think theres anything out there to do this. if i find something ill tell you.
If you don't trust your gf enough that you need to do this, then you should probably just break up. If you do somehow get a program for this (and it's highly doubtful) and confront her with it I think she'll have just as much to be angry about as you. Pretty big invasion of privacy whether or not she's guilty of what you suspect.
I have to agree with others that if you have to resort to spying rather than trust and talking to each other then you have bigger problems to deal with.
But if you must here are three that I know of. I used to see another program but I can't find it now.

Its NOT software you want its a hardware device called "Chastity-Belt" not quite sure if its Windows Mobile 6 compatible but it may do the trick.
Good Luck
uhhh...wtf ^
look into an experimental program being developed(in its beta stages) called sprite archie, google it, its not hard to find, i used it for similar purposes and it worked great. It will forward call logs, and sms, to an email account!
oh here ya go: http://www.spritesoftware.com/store/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=201 , this will be exactly what your looking for, and its pretty stealth, providing you delete the shortcuts in the program folder!
Let me tell you from experience. If you go down this path.. it will never stop. You will NEVER be satisfied. If you log her texts and see that she's not doing anything.. you'll just take it even further and further.
Just break up with her. If she asks why, tell her the truth. You just don't feel you can trust her. This is what I did in my past relationship of nearly 6 years and I am glad it's over.
lol i love how it turned into a relationship advising post

Something like this would be cool. I would donate if that was made on this forum..
Jesus, there's like two or three of them a day now. Between all the "Don't download this, I'm just testing" apps and those ****ty $5 apps by Khalid Shaikh the market is rapidly going down the toilet.
Really y'all, stop that. Just sayin.
I can see why they'd publish them. I can't, however, see why they leave them for more than 5 minutes. On my first publish I did exactly that. Tested to make sure that I could do it properly, and that it could download and install properly. Of course, I published my finished app and not a test version... I agree though...
yah i hate it. especially since google's plan is for a user managed market place.
That Khalid Shaikh is getting annoying with his lame apps indeed.
I have to agree with you guys. True, its a user-managed market, but I think users really ought to realize that if they want a good market, they gotta put up good apps! I don't want to be hating on Shaikh, considering he actually knows how to make apps and has the SDK environment all setup and I have absolutely no idea how, just, he really oughta do a quality check.
I can understand as a developer wanting to get your apps on the market asap to have all of your hard work recognized. But yeah, releasing apps before they're at least usable and pretty stable does nothing but hurt your reputation. You only get the "Sort by date" promotion once. I made that mistake on my first app..

So true... And if you waste that opportunity with unfinished work (particularly more than one unfinished work) you can really screw up acceptance of future works... Oh well, i guess that's up to those devs, I just wish I could weed them out of my view.
Right, why dont we just have Market Sections specifically for things like test apps, and fart apps, so we dont hafta sit there and freakin look through an infinite list of fart apps to find anything good? I mean, seriously, there should be some kinda category besides "Apps" and "Games on the main market page that you can lump all those LAME, annoying, USELESS apps into so that serious android users dont hafta filter through fifty fart apps to see decent work by serious devs...we should Just have a category called "Nonsense Apps", and all those apps should be kept separately from the regular apps section so you can browse through frickin fart apps all day long if thats what floats your boat, but if you actually wanna find something USEFUL, all that nosense crap will get filtered out...And honestly, its freakin 2009, people, there are Gays and Lesbians everywhere, openly expressing themselves as such, theres a black man running the white house...and somehow FARTS ARE STILL FUNNY?! I guess i didnt get the memo, cuz if i wanted to laugh at a fart id just fart, considering that the human anatomy is a generator of such sounds...why waste all that effort writing a program that makes fart sounds, when you can jusr rip one whenever, and its WAY funnier than a stupid phone app, cuz ppl can actually smell it...so what is the problem with all these moron devs that come out actin like they didnt know anyone else had put out a fart app? I agree with OP...JUST STOP IT...
Memo to bmfc187. Farts will always br funny. Fart apps, on the other hand, are pretty lame.
No farts were ripped during the creation of this reply.

They do have a demo section for random bullcrap like this.

I'm not sayin i cant appreciate a good rip, but why go to all that trouble to digitize a fart sound that your own body already makes naturally, knowing full well that your little sound machine could NEVER reproduce the funk from those Supreme Burritos i had last nite at El Tapatio...
-BMFC
Right on, the G1 speaker doesn't seem to have enough "low-end" sound to do a good rip justice.
I must confess, I did get a kick out of one of the apps that let me put a fart alarm on my phone when anyone moved it. My girlfriend wanted to kill me after I set it and went to the mens room at Outback. Guess she moved it when the waitress brought out my salad, aanf well, many lols were had at her expense.
I sent an email to Jay at Cyrket.com to see if he'd be willing to do anything to allow us to apply filters to the data provided by his site. In the mean time, I set up a Yahoo Pipe for myself that filters out all apps with the words theme, skin, fart, or soundboard.
My "big idea" being an interface to the market which uses allows for very customizable seort and filter settings. Of course the actual market app would be used for purchases/downloads. This would only be a market browser.
It would be nice if we had the option to filter out certain developers (IndiaNIC, LLC and Khalid Sheikh) who are flooding the market with nonsense that obviously isn't selling.
ryan75: My Pipe does that.
The main problem with the Pipe approach though is that it's a work-around and as such is limited. Particularly in the case of sorting... You have to get all of the data first before you can reliably sort it, that can take a really long time with Pipes.
These developers should just provide links to themes, comics and icon packs etc. Test apps should go in the demo section. Finding 50 comics/books/storys/bs or themes or icons a day is friggin annoying. The farts I can deal with because there aren't 50 a day.
hi.. ive been looking for software that will make my x1 a surveillance cam.. maybe a scheduled on or off of the cam.. something like that... any suggestions?

Exactly....another illogical idea from someone who wants a spycam.
weird request
but if its really important to you just install something to use it as a web cam (there are several ppc webcam drivers just use google) then use spycam software that work on webcams

XD Still Doesn't Make Any Logical Sense
TC,
I call bull**** on your reasons. If you want to be a voyeurist, go file yourself beforehand as a sex offender or something similar or what have you in where you're currently residing.
You are probably the same bunch of idiots who have been requesting for potentially illegal, perverse, and highly likely to be misused programs.
Keep on making new accounts. I'd be more than delighted to see how many synonyms you can come up for the "spy cams". You've now got spycam, surveillance cam, why don't you try "security camera" next? or even "Animal Watcher", or even "I-li3k-2-watch-fishies" camera next.
Good day.

Chaosstorm,
I don't "google" these things unfortunately. I simply read the topic title, the user's post count, and I instantly remember the threads made earlier. Note how previous posters have stopped "using" their accounts.
Honestly, if you can't even tell the irregularities in his request, then you need to stop being so naive and think that everyone are innocent and do-gooders. Either that or you're part of the group. For your sake, I hope you're just naive.
If he wants to stop people from stealing his documents, invest in a proper security camera. Heck, since he's working at a proper place, get the place he works for to pay for it. Problem solved.
Good day.
Seriously though, they don't even have a tripod for the phone, the Xperia isn't meant to stand on a plane like a camera. So using it as a security type spy cam such as in sex tapes or "cheater revelation" tapes means that you need to be able to conceal the Xperia while making it able to stand on it's thin and non-flat side.
Seriously go buy a real camera, set it on during the AFK hours, and hide it. Or buy a freaking webcam.
Using the Xperia is just an illogical idea for this purpose. Sigh...
Darn..i never expected the response this long.. no need to argue guys... no point. you cant expect everyone carrying knives as killers... Chefs do carry knives. my point is each person have different purpose for different things.

If you catch a person in your backyard at 2am with a knife, what would his alibi need to be for you to actually BELIEVE he is a chef?
Let's face it. Guys with spycam software and small cameras are going to be considered perverts and nothing else.
Here are a few things, that when I hear people say them or something like them, I immediately want to just punch them in the face.
1. "4G is here!"
Uhm, no. Next year, buddy, at the earliest. It's going to be in a few markets and a few markets for the next year or so, but not everywhere that you'd normally get 3G. And by the way, THIS.
2. "Verizon is the best (in the US)!"
Uhm, no. They may have the best coverage, but I'd prefer not to pay out of my a** to get it. I'd also like it if people weren't nickled and dimed for every little thing, like tiered data plans (F*CK bandwith capping) and tethering.
3. "My iPhone is the greatest!"
Uhm, no. Lay off the Kool-Aid.
4. "Why did you buy that BRICK of a phone? (about my Touch Pro 2)
Hey, di*kface, this phone has the best mobile keyboard on the planet. That's a lot of space right there. Not to mention all the hardware goodies that were nice when the phone first came out. I want my phone to be like a mini-computer, so I'm okay if it's as big and heavy as one.
Okay, just venting. Anyone else get frustrated at some of the things you constantly hear?????!!!!

I will bow down to you!! That exactly what everyone says!!! SPOT on!
This is what i get in school:
"Why have you got an old 80's phone?" "I havent, but i better my phone is better than yours at multitasking!"
"Look he carrys his computer around in his pocket" "at least ive got a computer!"
Or..
"Whys your phone so big?" "Because its about to burst with the amount of functions it has"
Some people ask how old my phone is. I say 7 years old. They say its getting on a bit. Why don't you buy a Samsung Tocco Lite? I say:
1. Tocco's screen is too small,
2. I can't play DOOM on a tocco,
3. Its too popular
4. Its not windows mobile,
5. Why would i spend about £60 on a phone i can lose easier because its small?
6. The build quality won't be as good.
So there!!!! Iam a bit tired now, might just chop my hands off.

I always get "It's a bit Heavy" - to which they get "It has a fully functional QWERTY keyboard - it's an acceptable trade off".
I also like taking the proverbial "P" out of people who still own iPhone's and are getting bored with them. I keep telling them how many of Apple FanBoi's have now gotten the HTC Desire and love it now.

I hope nobody minds if I expand to the internet, too (I guess that's still relevant to the topic heading)...

I have 2 Twitter accounts and I try to use them as often as possible, but I just can't figure out why people would choose this over Facebook. You get the status updates, you can post pictures and videos just the same, and you have more of a profile established with loads of stuff. I mean all of my status updates are the same for all of them (thanks to Digsby) and please don't be offended by this, but why do a majority of people prefer Twitter? I'd love to get into it, but I just don't see it.

I've found that Twitter is best to reach a larger audience in a shorter amount of time, which is why it is perfect for ROMs and such. John releases a rom, he has 20,000 followers. These followers tell their followers through a retweet and it quickly gets around. With Facebook it could take days before anyone notices something (or says anything).
I've always used Facebook for family conversations and Twitter for my android friends.

Ahhhh, that makes good sense. Actually, now that I think about it, it makes sense for why Twitter is so popular for celebrities and media outlets. Hmm, interesting. Thanks!
Have you all noticed that Facebook, twitter, and other networks try to take over the world? Facebook in skyfire now, facebook is everywhere with "like" buttons, Social Networks are forced by freaking Motoblur, people reporting each their step: "I just ate Icecream!" "I just saw some weird dude." "People what to do? I got a ticket!"
Get your butt out of the computer/cellphone and go to the beach watch a sunset! Let your brain free for at least a moment!
While checking email in the morning, I see hundreds of posts from people about what they did on a hourly basis.
So pathetic. After all this I really want to delete facebook and add it to all possible filters.
What is your opinion of such invasion and zombification?

It's only a fad. I remember the days when Friendster was cool and everyone was on it. Then came MySpace, and in that got canned with Facebook. Once FB floats, investors are gonna put a lot of pressure on the management to monetize their assets (users) and this is gonna push the engineers to their peak frustration. They'll start using codes that users hate, and sooner or later a new social network will start, and the cycle begins anew.

Im just getting really annoyed by facebook, twitter, and myspace stuff forced upon me. I install something, there yahoo toolbar forced, or facebook link.
I keep facebook just as an easy connection to friends, but not as my way of life. I go to facebook anytime and i see at least 10 of my friends sitting out there, where 9 out of these 10 post all what they did.
I also loved skyfire, but now its impossible to use it on my Magic at all. Instead of making that, they could have fixed video errors, that happen in 2 out of 3 videos. Plus there were no single movie that I could finish without an error.
Off topic: You guys should have seen the computer at my temporary workplace. It had 150 toolbars installed on IE, Starting from yahoo toolbar and ending with facebook toolbar. All kinds of notifiers and BS, forced on the noobs. Took me 2 hours to clean everything from it, including hundreds of viruses and bs.
It is clearly obvious that the goal of each social network is to capture people as many as possible. Alone I do not blame them. For the most part it is people's fault.
I was growing up in Ukraine, and a computer was something that we did once a month (if lucky enough). We did anything possible, from fishing to exploring... Were out from sunrise till sundown.
Even shared photos and proposed to girls in PERSON. Now people breaking up on freaking facebook, and seek a remedy for their problems...
