I thought you could bypass the limit by making a tweak to the Android operating system? |
|
Yes you could. But not all users are that tech savvy. They may need a simpler alternative. |
|
You should also probably remove those files that are only relevant to your programming environment. |
|
This is really great. However, I would appreciate this approach. The |

Having it enabled in the settings screen sounds awesome and yes it should be a separate app that should be installed via Google play store. I will see what I can do, then i will send another pull request. Thanks |

@eyedol I don't think i understand what you meant by a separate project. I have the sms-portal app as a separate folder in the same repository as the smssync i.e smssync and sms-portal share the same parent folder in the repo directory structure. Or were you thinking in the lines of a separate repository for sms-portal. |
|
Yeah would be easier to maintain and manage if it's in it own repository. With this, it's easier to keep track of version numbers and all... |
|
ping @vaneyck any updates? Anything I can do to help? |
|
@eyedol i have a branch in my repo (hcb-portals) that includes the portals code, works with or without the portals installed and my callback features. It should merge cleanly but it's not totally done yet. Was also thinking to incorporate an advanced area in the settings for these options. Also have an sms-portals repo with 4 portals in it, which is totally optional. But I think if you wanted them available on the Market you might need to distribute them separately? No clue on how to manage that. |
|
@mandric @eyedol i already created an option for enabling and managing the portals on the settings menu. Maybe we can make like mockups of how we would like the ui to look like. I wouldn't mind implementing it. Design isn't my strong point. |
|
@vaneyck the Advanced panel was just a suggestion. Since it doesn't hurt anything if the user tries to use portals but the extra portals are not installed it doesn't really matter... same with the callbacks stuff... those options don't break anything but do require extra work to get them working. |
|
Hey folks, what's the status of this? Is there code I can check out and have a play with? |
|
@alxndrsn @vaneyck did some work on his fork. We wanted this feature to be a configurable option so you can enable or disable when needed. Upon enabling the feature, it prompts the user to install sms-portals which enables SMS to be sent more than 100 x |

Is it implemented?!?! |

Hi, |
|
Is there a branch somewhere with the sms-portals support/settings (not portals themselves since those are distributed separately) merged with main SMSSync develop branch? If not I will work on porting/merging it from @vaneyck's branch soon. Can SMSSync ship to market with the portals settings/support even if the portal apps are not available in the market yet? For now we can just publish 20 portals somewhere to install via non-market/direct download? |

Hi, So to by pass the 100 sms per hour per app limit on android i have developed a "sms-portal". The "sms-portal" is an app that has a service that works as an sms sender. SMSSync round robins between itself and the sms-portal when sending the messages. Ideally we can have as many senders as we can.
Please have a look and let me know.
Thanks
