Thanks for the update. Seems the original problem about not opening some MMS's was related to just GIF's animated or not. Now I can open GIF's but ones that animate don't move. Had my gf send me one she got that had a face laughing and I got it but wasn't animating. Great step in the right direction keep up the good work.

Hi !

Could you consider to implement a lince of code filtering out all chars fmms not accept in phone numbers ?

I mean, all my contact has the followign phone number stlye : +41 (30) 5648932

And fmms always "complain" about spaces and brackets, and woudl be so great if would no need to delete them all the time.

I thought to drop you a lien about it as it should not be a big issue with coding.

Many Thanks for your time and help,

Andrew

Hi,

Related to this, can we change it so we can select email addresses instead of just phone numbers from Contacts?

And after deleting the messages from fMMS app, it's still not deleted from: /home/user/.fmms/mms and /home/user/.fmms/sent

But in this version I can receive GIF animated images, I can't see the animation of the picture, but I can see the static image (one frame) from the GIF animated image It's cool ! Thanks.

Could you email me the logfile? Should be fixed in 0.5.4. Instructions are in my signature. My email is <myforumusername>@frals.se

See below for animated GIF's-stuff.

I guess the only real challenge left is to get the app to use the right connection (ie GPRS) automatically? I was wondering if this could be related to which interface the application was binding to? e.g. should it not be bound only to phonet0?

Also, I notice resizing is pretty slow - could we have some options in the app for this? E.g. HQ(slow)/LQ(fast) all based around the assumptions that the images would have come from the built in camera.
As the MMS images themselves are pretty small, how about caching the resized images? It wouldn't take much space on the device (limit could be configurable option), and would be really helpful - especially with the connection thing and the resizing delay... sometimes I find by the time the image has been resized my connection has swapped back to WLAN... so it errors, so I'm back to the start.... A resizing cache would be a simple optimisation.

Anyway - thanks for writing this app. Much appreciated.

I've been working on a few changes to connection stuff - they are all in the next version whenever that comes. Basically there are 3 different "connection modes" - one where it tries to setup a connection in the background (havoc), one where it forces a disconnect from the current one (rude) and a final setting which tries to connect to the correct IAP only if no other connection is active (polite). Hopefully this will void the need to cache resized images as well

I am however looking at improving the resizing stuff as it's pretty darn slow atm

One question;
My contact's name isn't displayed inside the fMMS inbox. I usually have to guess who's sending me the MMS. And if I can't tell, I have to go search through my contacts and figure it out. It just has their phone number.

Is this by design (so far)? The people sending me the MMS are in "My Contacts" attached to a name. Only fMMS doesn't display their names when I send or receive MMS (as opposed to the Conversations)

Thanks for your help!

Known issue, it currently only matches against two of the contacts numbers ("other-phone" and "mobile-phone") - it's something I'm looking into.

Looking at having animated GIF's working as well - no promises

Another suggestion - since we can receive by email, can we also match against email addresses too?

Thanks!
