Re: [Announce] fMMS for N900
 
Greetings all,
First off, i have to apologize, I recently remember this application, therefore after seeing sooo many pages... i just read the first 2 and the last 2... But i have one question, you say you need to be connected to the apn to RECEIVE an mms? What happens to the actually mms that somebody randomly sends you when you are NOT connected to the apn? Will it loop back and around in your carrier's network until you actually decide to connect to the apn, or does it expire and gets deleted in the air?

Sorry if question has been answered already :(

Re: [Announce] fMMS for N900
 
I have finished setting it up and testing it, and all i have to say is the following:
GREAT JOB FLAPS!!! :D
lol, I'm a total linux noob, but following the wiki step-by-step, I installed it and configured it, and got it working on my very first try :)

I am in Montreal, Canada and use Rogers Wireless as provider. I had to edit the wiki page you had posted in the first link because some information were not properly enter, but from now on, any Rogers user in Canada can copy it word by word and it should be 100% fonctional.

A little fyi... I don't know if it's the same for other (american) providers, but I called up Rogers and spoke to 2 different technical support agents, and they told me (althought they admitted they weren't sure) that Rogers does NOT use a size limitation on MMS but that it all depends on the receiving phone. After thanking them and hanging up, I took a full 5mp picture, and used the FULL size of 2576 width, although it took about an entire minute to "convert" it, my gf received the full picture :D
So once again, thanks for the amazing job :)

(Two little sidenotes... it might be just me, but it seems like staying connected to the APN and the sending of MMS drains a lot of battery. And I lost access to my MicroSD card... had to restart to regain acces to it)

I think size (kb) is more the issue. I sent myself and image using 1024 as width. With T-Mo US, I think the limit is around 1MB for file size.

However, other carriers may resize, or worse reject the MMS. Verizon is about 300kB I believe.

You will receive av push-sms, so you know that a message is waiting.

It's not T-mobile. it's actually the type of phone your friends/families have.

A friend of mine had BB storm on Verizon. Whenever she send me an image, it would look quite small even after saving the image. I got her Moto Droid and now the picture she send me are very big. (Cover N900 screen if saved) In FmmS, it would take up about 66% of the screen or more.

Same experience with Google G1 - good image while Samsung something.. small image.

From what I learn from this thread, 300 is the setting you are senting out to people. So far, I changed my setting to 600 and it work perfectly fine. I will probably try 1000 until I sent out the same width as my friend Driod.

Re: [Announce] fMMS for N900
 
Might've reported this already, or something similar, but at least when sending a mms to friend with for example normal cell and work cell number, it won't show name for the work cell number in the message log.

Another question...
1) Why when I delete messages from application and after this if I look in to the folder: /home/user/.fmms/mms and /home/user/.fmms/sent I see all messages here... Why it's not deleted from device ?

just wanted to say that this is similar to my device as well; while there is nothing in the /mms folder my sent message is in the /sent folder. Is there a way to clean it out?

About encoding - other phone can get messages in hebrew from other phones, not from my fmms app.... SMS ok...

Resume:
1) I can't open messages with gif animated picture
[/B]3) Messages I sent and delete from app - not deleted from /home/user/.fmms/sent

My log file here...

Seems I got a bug related to deleting sent messages, thanks for reporting, I've added it to the fix-list ;)

It won't let me grab the file from mediafire, you could you email it to me instead please? :)

About the contact search, it's case sensitive which might be why you are having troubles with it :) (looking at changing it)

Uh, might be permission problems on that folder (but it shouldn't be... Need to do some testing). Please run the following in x-terminal:
ls -l /home/user/.fmms/mms/C1S5ZgSwoOOUMAAG28AAAACQADNdEAAAAA/

and paste the output :)

Yeah known issue, I'm waiting for some hints from the pymaemo team how to integrate properply with libosso-abook which I think is coming... :p

rm -r /home/user/.fmms/sent/ should do the trick... I think :p

Re: [Announce] fMMS for N900
 
great app ... even beter than the integrated mms on my previous phones as it resizes real pics .... my n95 8gb couldnt do that. wicked.
1 question though ..... how do you receive mms thagt people send you? do you just change negtwork to (in my case) vodafone mms and wait awhile?

u should get push sms and if u tap on it the fMMS will open and start to download mms itself. New verson of appl connects itself with defined ascces point.

push mms? whats that? searched app manager and dont see an app called push mms?

Schturman 2010-03-13 00:44

Re: [Announce] fMMS for N900
 
No push mms -> u get push SMS, it is not a program, it's like a simple notification sms. You only need tap on this and your MMS should start download itself.

Mine opens fmms but it doesn't download without me clicking the message inside fmms. Is there any reason I get an sms and an email? sms I don't believe opens fmms but the email does. I have to check to make sure tho

Yes u r right, sms not open the mms, it start download the mms and after this you get mms notification message, you need tap on this and your MMS downloaded and opened. If you don't tap on this, mms is downloaded and you can open this from fMMS application.

Re: [Announce] fMMS for N900
 
don't know if this has already been covered here but if you have similar problems, please vote. these bugs come along fAPN but fAPN creates everything by the rules so the reason is probably within os core.

https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9500
https://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9476

so if you can confirm either or both, please vote!
(the functionality is really annoying....)

if your n95 doesn't take about 0,3MPIX pictures by default, it resizes the images. it just doesn't tell it to you (mms protocol restrictions)

Re: [Announce] fMMS for N900
 
Hey guys! I wanted to start off by saying two thumbs up for creating an application like this which Nokia should've put into the phone in the first place. However I am having a problem with installing the program.

I tried installing the application and I keep getting this error:
Unable to Install 'FMMS'
Appliation Packages missing: python2.5
python-gtk2
python-osso
python-hildon
python-imaging
python-gobject
python-evolution
rootsh
sharing-fmms"

Any idea what i'm doing wrong?

Re: [Announce] fMMS for N900
 
i had the same problem about a month ago. i uninstalled another app that used python gtk, and then my fmms and fapn kept crashing. i uninstalled them and tried to uninstall, but got the same error you got. i also was unable to install python gtk again. Had to flash. working perfectly now....fmms and all apps back in place. just rememeber to back up

If someone send to you MMS (picture-message), you are automatically get "push sms" at first and after this mms message...

Re: [Announce] fMMS for N900
 
Another little problem...
If got message from someone and I use the replay option, after sending the message the send-screen not returning to the main screen....

And maybe someone know how I can get a larger image than 240x180 ?
I test this from another phones (Iphone, N97), but I always got picture with this resolution :-/

daffydk 2010-03-14 18:20

Re: [Announce] fMMS for N900
 
a nice feature for fmms would be that it automatic disconnects the internet and connects the fapn for reciving the mms. and when the mms are recived it should connect to internet again.

or is that not possible to make such a small script ? that trickers on the mmspush command or something like that ????

so i type it in and it tells me "not Found" so i installed the ssh and the winscip but the winsip gets a error when trying to connect

Re: [Announce] fMMS for N900
 
Here is something. T-Mobile USA gives me the option to receive emails to my device as MMS messages (sent to ########@tmomail.net). I often use this email to get notifications from UPS, FedEx, USPS, et.c. - basically emails with text. What is odd is that I cannot scroll down to read the text of those messages in fMMS. All I can achieve is select the text.

Re: [Announce] fMMS for N900
 
Not working for me anymore.

Back when I posted the APN settings for Rogers, everything was fine. I've since removed and re-installed fAPN and fMMS and not working anymore.

I'll try and TS the issue. Is there a verbose mode?

Re: [Announce] fMMS for N900
 
I still can't delete msg from fMMS appl :(

I have a problem with incoming msges. I get al messages but not from my brother and here is the question. Is this like that because we have numbers in different countries or because he uses blackberry? All I get is sms with link to O2.uk site where I can see the message. Any clue?

Hi there. I've just recently got a n900 and joined and have downloaded the fmms app from the devel repository. I just would like to say thanks for all your hard work, its a great tool! Its amazing that this function wasn't included on the stock phone and I'm glad that someone took the time with their peers to put it right :D

Much appreciated

Re: [Announce] fMMS for N900
 
Has the Original Post been updated recently? i have been waiting very patiently to try this app out since it came out but i was hoping it would be in extras-testing before i actually put my hands on it.

It seems every1 includimg noobs can run this just about now but i just wanted to know if there was any new information that has came up that might be worthy of an updated OP. just saying lol. anyway major props to everyone who has contributed to this application. never seen such great amount of dedicated people especially frals for dealing with almost 1000 replys! =O.

Again let me know if the OP is going to be updated or if it is fine the way it is now. i am a person that always check OP no matter if the topic has 100 pages of replys. Unfortunately not everyone updates it =/.

Thanks again every1.

Re: [Announce] fMMS for N900
 
i have a question. surprisingly i was able to setup fmms to work for me. from my understanding you have to be under the new apn you create with the fapn app to recieve mms messages. my question is, what happens if i just stay connected to the new apn i created instead of switching back to my original t-mobile connection? i hope i was able to my myself clear enough for someone to answer..thanks!

Hello frals

In the header info. of messages received it mentions about delivery reports.

Is there a plan to implement a delivery report feature/option in fMMS like usual SMS messages?

somedude 2010-03-17 02:02

Re: [Announce] fMMS for N900
 
Does anyone know why after creating new apn, there is no regular tmobile internet connection shown in automatically connect to any connection inside settings?
I like to keep the auto-connect to any connection except for T-Mobile MMS that I created for this app is there a way around this or it is as is for now?
