Anniversary SMS (autosend)

Hi,
I am looking to find a simple utility that would send a pre-defined Birthday / Anniversary sms to my contact based on the dates already available in Windows Mobile Contact information.
I have tried searching on this forum and on the net but to no luck. Does anyone know of any such software. The closest I could get was RJ SMS Scheduler but it requires us to feed in a schedule. I wish to find something that can look up the contact list and pick dates itself.
Thanks,
Umesh

Message taken! you could say I am lazy, unintentionally though, mostly due to lack of time. Intentionally, I would like not to miss a single event of the 400+ contacts I have on my phone list.
Can only imagine how glad they would be to hear from me on their special days and how happy I would be to know that I would never miss any good wishes for any of my good friends.

I checked this software but it is quite similar to so many others available on net. It requires us to set up a schedule to send the sms to particular contacts.
Instead I am suggesting the app could pick dates itself from the Window Mobile's Contact List and send sms from templates, we create and save in there. This way we do not have to add birthdates / anniversaries to Contact List and then set up another scheduled sms through a third party application for our purpose.
I hope I have managed to explain what I am looking for.
Thanks,
Umesh.

Ah, I see what you're asking for now. I don't know of anything that can do that, but it would be a good idea!

Any thoughts from anyone else to share knowledge of such an application ?
Thanks.

Not that easy
I'm looking for such application since a long time, but no luck. The application should also consider the following requirements:
MUST HAVE:
- choose the correct phone number, cuz the text messages should be sent only if a mobile number is available for the specific contact;
NICE TO HAVE:
- built the text message with a variable string where automatically should put the name of the contact;
- should have the possiblity of exclude some contacts from the auto-SMS in order to avoid sending the pre-configured SMS to your girlfriend for example
Will see if someone can manage it in the future.
P.S.: I have more that 400 birthday to remember
Ciao!

Thanks Mohit for putting this together. I've set it on my system though had some issues with display on Touch HD but was able to use the controls and set it up. Couple of questions that I had in mind -
1. Does it have to be left running at all times or can I at least shove it off my running task list.
2. Every time I add a new contact and his / her birthday do I have to update this software too to add the new contact to it's list.
But otherwise it seems to be a nice piece of work.
Thanks,
Umesh.

Hi Umesh,
Thanks,
well no need to keep it running as i am using notification que to run it at the designated time. like an alarm. so u can just exit after setting up every thing from options->save n exit
and about updating new contact u just need to open the app and click options-> "add contacts bday", it will automatically fetch the new one and update it. also it will remember the last message u had set up.

WP7 7.0.7355.0v KA1 unlock?

got Omnia 7 with WP7 7.0.7355.0 v (xxka1 rom).
i have copy/paste...
any1 else got this version and can confirm chevronwp7 working?
can't get it to unlock...
i could unlock previous version (before service)
now i alway get no connection... (zune etc. all running) and tried it 100times with all different settings from forums...

we were informed that after the release of Nodo
MS would kill the chevron
So I think that you can not do anything with Chevron

yeah i read that
but do i really have the NoDo update already?

Where did you get that ROM?

i had speaker replaced in warranty....
so the service updated my phone to KA1
i noticed changes only copy/paste and chevron not working anymore...
i found no other changes yet...
still only DHCP no fixed ip...
no camera settings save
maybe battery is better
no user ringtones...
so not much new...

if you have this build 7.0.7355.0,you have also integrate Nodo(copy\past and other)

Lucky you then (unless you relied on Chevron, in which case, poor you)!
Do you use Bluetooth at all? I'm having major issues with my Bluetooth and I'm hoping the update will fix it.
If you have used it did it work properly for you previously, and if it didn't, does it work now?
Sorry to hijack the thread a bit .

i haven't used bluetooth before but will try it tomorrow...
i used chevron to test my own programs and use it...
no other way as i can't get developer acc. in my country...
oh and no multitasking...or i can't find it...as seen on videos

That sucks. Multitasking will be coming later this year, I don't think it was supposed to be a part of NoDo.

OMG no fixed IP... That sucks for me

yeah overall the wp7 is 10000x better than wm6.5
but to "forget" fixed ip??? wtf
like forgeting to include sms on phone..
otherwise it's the best os ever...after few updates it will be in universe..

How is third party app performance? Hoping this firmware will show up on the interwebs very soon then!

Are you folks referring to fixed WIFI IP address? If so, the DVP has a option to set static IP address using the EM tool. I am sure other devices should have it as part of the Engineering menu somewhere.

Do you really think that Microsoft cares what you expected?.. They have a huge issue with app security and side-loading (read - the money issue ). Copy/paste feature it's just a little candy for naive enthusiasts...

Dell Venue Pro

Is it possible to dump your Rom and make it available for everybody ?

I wonder if they fixed the spratic keyboard responce problems. Still, its pretty disapointing that it has taken them five months to add a feature already implimented in the original OS. Looks like we will be having to do everything ourselves like in iOS.

Finding Daily XXXXXX Quest

Sorry if I offensive someone... But on my 'old' HD2 with Android I was able to use and install "Daily Breast Quest" I used Android for a short time on my HD2. I flashed it with something else (wp7).
Now I have waited several weeks on the delivery of the Samsung Galaxy S2. Finally I have it, one of the apps I was waiting for was this one. Somehow it is'n available on the Markter. I have Content Filtering set to "Show all apps" it switches back automatically to "High maturity"
Anyhow, still no luck with finding the APP. Is their someone who has the APK file ? Has it something to do with the 2.3. version on the Samsung Galaxy S2.
The website http://www.playboy.nl/daily-breast-quest mentions a QR code :
It leads to market://details?id=com.mediabunker.android.playboy.dailybreastquest
-- EDIT --
No one who can help me with the apk ?

I have it for you. Let me know how to send it to you.
BTW, I don't get new breasts for 4 days now. Same thing with all my friends. I don't get it...

Haha...
What is this app anyway??

App published but not in MP

Got my 2 apps published and can see the same under my AppList, it says certified and it is under the Publised tab, but it is still not showing up in the MP.
Any idea?

Publishing can take 24-48 hours.

It does take time. 24-48 hours is pretty accurate. I have been able to see my published apps in the website http://windowsphone.com/marketplace but could not find it by searching the marketplace. It'll get there, the system just takes a while to sync up. Patience!

This is very true. Your app will then show a status of "Submission Started" or something to that effect. I don't think it actually hurts a published app but I had this and it generally confused me. You can always go back in and click "Cancel Submission" to leave your app as is though.

I wasn't able to cancel the submission. I made them cancel the certification and turns out I still had to make a metadata update in order to escape it lol. Oh well, I'll know next time.

Marketplace publishing process (comparing with year ago) now become very slow and annoying. And MS still want to expand developers community! I'm afraid if developers should wait two or more weeks to be published (actually, I'm talking more about quick bugfixes etc., not the initial submission), developer's interest to WP7 platform will reduced.

On top of that, the Dashboard is not current, frequently broken and should really have more data for developers to be able to know stats of their apps (other than just download count and crash count).

Definitely. To reply to sensbostons post. What you say is correct. My app got published and a bug occurred immediately that I needed to post an update to. Needless to say I was JUST able to upload my updated xap yesterday and the bug happened two weeks ago. The support is horrible as I was instructed to do things that ultimately led to pushbacks. Do they want their developers to have faith in this Marketplace? I've been wondering that. That dashboard... The buggiest thing of all. Sometimes I refresh and it tells me it doesn't have my tax information at all.

Yeah after entering my tax information about 10 times, I realized they have it. Just that the dashboard's buggyness is something to live with for now.

Yes to echo what others have said, on top of normal app maintenance having to fight with the App Hub's slowness and constant errors doesn't get me excited for app writing.
Interesting post on overwriting a successful submission.

Display the company name of the contact that is calling you?

I use my phone for business.
I have thousand of people in my contacts.
I want to see caller's name and company before I pickup the phone.
iPhone can do this, how about Android?

phone>settings>callerid &spam. Google tries to provide the name of the caller if not in your contacts list. In the past I remember having choices as to what it used to obtain the callers information. I cant find that anymore.

Thank you.
I already tried both of them.
Smart Notify is working if phone is not locked. If it is locked then full screen caller id come, than no callers's company info shown.
Call informer was the App i was using 4 years ago. I already tried it since i swicthed back to android.
Unfortunately it doesn't work with newest android phones. Like my Pixel 3 XL.
But it works great with Asus zenfone 3. Which has android 8.0.0
It would be great if there is an update to call informer.
