[RELEASE] Notifier 1.0

[GRace1976]

Hi, so, i' ve just restored my device and installed only BiteSMS and notifier beside Cydia.

For my device i can say for shure that notifier doesn't work with the new Version 2.5 of BiteSMS. I get only the icons but no vibration and sound for reminding. I am the only one with this problem?


Nice evening

If you get the icon for new sms on status bar for biteSMS, it means notifier detects when biteSMS receives a new sms. On the same routine this detection is performed, the reminder is started, so you definitely should have the reminds as per your settings AND per your preferences.
Wich is your setup for sound preferences?
How is the sms prefs configured on Reminder app. Post a screenshot of your sound preferences and another for the sms prefs setup on reminder .

Hi,
@spektro

thanks for your answer, here the requested Screenies:

here the Iphone preferences of the sound prefs





and here the prefs of the Reminder APP:




Here a Screens. of my homescreen with the icon for new SMS




The most gracy thing ist that the reminder sounds and vibration on calls, emails and voicemail works very well. Is Notifier working on your Iphone with the BiteSMS Version 2.5?

Ps.:It has just worked with a SMS which i sent to myself. But only once, I am testing right now, why. I'll keep you informed about.

Update: I have no Idea why it worked once. I just sent a second sms to myself but nothing has happened for 15 min now.

I love this app but I took it off becuase of all the constant lag it generated in my phone. Hope they find a way to fix this.

Hi tomcola

thank you for your reply. So, finally i won't have to search further for the reason. and

Yes, you are right, with the 2.4 Version of BiteSMS everything was fine. When I installed the beta-version of BiteSMS 2.5, I installed ILOG and Remindyou too. I didn't know if that was the reason for stoping the reminder function.

Hopefully there will be an update for this great app!

Thanks

is it possible to update this to include irealsms 2.0 and mysms?

Sup guys, sorry for this delay. You know, gotta feed my kids
I don't know if the iRealSMS people changed their bundle identifier, but this package supports it. It's just a matter to check if it's still working or not.
Also, for the BiteSMS problem. I've downloaded the last version and the bundle identifier is still the same. So that's why you are still getting the icon on status bar, but as i wrote, for an unknown reason yet, the notifications are not working. As i don't use it, i can't test it.
The strange fact is that if you get the icon on top, you MUST have the notifications as well, since it's triggered on the same time the icon is placed.
Could you please try to use another sound notification, instead of the Electronic?

[GRace1976]

Hi,

i changed the sound but it doesn't remind me. the taskbar icon is working most of the time but there are a few times when i don't get the tasbar icon after receiving a SMS.

When this happens and i start the biteSMS program the taskbar icon is flashing up short and disapearing within a second.

hello,

with fw 2.2 (3G) no sound notify on sms, mail, phone and voicemail.Icons runs without problem. The same as biteSMS.

Update, i think there are no sound if phone goes into standby.

thanks for your work on this great tool

Hi Mates

Yes, Apple changed some policy about their battery management on this new 2.2 version too, wich causes the notifier application to not work correctly.
I've just sent the new Notifier 1.6 version to BigBoss, wich will be up soon and is working with no problems on 2.2

I've added mySMS app to the list of supported sms applications, and also another for RSS called ByLine (per a user request).
I hope this version will fix the BiteSMS problem either.

I've just installed Notifier 1.6 on my iPhone with firmware 2.2. The "Time Interval" slider is very difficult to adjust. Once set, it is virtually impossible to move the slider left or right. It seems to be just stuck. The only way to adjust the slider again is to uninstall/reinstall the program. Is anyone else running into the same problem?

[tomcola]

@spektro

Thanks for your fast and great work, 1.6 runs with fw 2.2 on 3G with icon and sound. The slider for time interval is not easy to change but itīs possible. Sorry, but the same problem with biteSMS 2.6 (and 2.5) only icon no sound. If in settings of biteSMS the default sms programm setting is off the out of the box sms prog has no problem with sound. Older biteSMS runs with sound. I found in the changelog of 2.5 a entry, is that the problem ?

one Point of Changelog biteSMS 2.5
"Compliance with Cydia Mobile Substrate framework for registering of dylibs (now a Cydia prerequisite)"

Thanks for your work, i think you find a solution for biteSMS.

Hi,

sorry, i still have the Probs with BiteSMS too But thank you for your great work and this cool App!!!

I think the Problem is on the BiteSMS site. Maybe the App block some features that Notifier is using. Another idea is that another app (maybe BITESMS) sending the iphone into depp sleep and overrides the reminder timer or blocks a Libary. I am only guessing but i'm not a developer to figure this out

Damn
Let me explain how simple it is, and why it sould work with any sms software.
Each software has it's identifier, and the biteSMS identifier is on the list of supported softwares. So thats why you are getting the status bar icon as expected. At the same time the icon is placed, the reminder is triggered, and the sound is read from the preferences property list setup.
So this is how notifier knows wich tone to play. It also reads your preferences for vibration when the ringer switch is ON and OFF.
So the vibration is really independent from the sound, and also should be working.
I don't use biteSMS, and really don't want to buy credits to use it, so i can't fully test and debug the problem. If you would like to debug the application when using biteSMS, you can contact me on [email protected] and i can send you a debug library in order to figure out what's really going on.

Thanks

hello spektro,

you donīt must by credits, with biteSMS you can send SMS with your provider, this is the great feature and the reason that people use this software (landscape.... ). In the biteSMS options you can change between the biteSMS gateway or your provider gateway, so if you have time an fun please test. The second point you donīt must send a sms only in the option of biteSMS set as the default SMS APP and receive a SMS.

Ok no problem, got it.
If someone would like to beta test it before release it as an update, please contact me on the e mail from my previous post.
It's working now, but i would like to receive a real biteSMS user feedback.
