Re: [Announce] I am here - Request GPS position and more with SMS
 

Some body please help me.
I've installed the app. Once the installation completed, it started the wizard. I gave password for the different steps like configuration, activation/deactivation etc, but I'm not sure it finished the wizard properly as it just got vanished after the 5th step ie -text message decativating reports (sms mail) - I can see the app while un-installing.
There are so much information in the thread, but I'm lost in the posts, sorry If i'm reposting.. I could find the proper usage documentation any ware, so I have some basic questions.

After installation, we have to do the settings using the wizard.
After that how to configure - I read that you have sent an sms to the activate. I'm completely lost here- can somebody explain me the complete sequence - activating, deactivating, then when the sim changing how it happens etc. Help appreciated...

The program i meant to be controlled from a remote phone.
You are supposed to be able to turn I Am Here on and off via sms,
Also the configuration wizard you went through can be accessed once more if you send yourself an sms with the work you chose when you 1st installed.
Keep in mind, It's ALL case sensitive!
Open the conversations application, and send yourself an SMS with the work you put for configuration.
If that does not make the wizard appear for you to do it all over again, something is messed up and you need the OP.

The activate and deactivate passwords allow you to turn on / off the I Am Here functionality, if you send the activate password via sms, the phone will start getting a gps fix and will send it to you by sms, according to what you have configured.
If you configured periodic updates, It will keep on updating till you send the deactivate password.

Kapish?

Thanks eitama.
Can you tell me exactly what would be the content of the sms (to config, to activate, to deactivate. I gave three passwords in the wizard).
And again if someone looses the phone, you mean to say that he has to send the activate message to get the location and other tracking info? What if the thief changes the sim before we could send the message?

You can set it to start on changed SIM in config. So it doesn't matter if they change it.

hi, i installed this application strait from the repository then went through the config pages fairly quickly not putting any passwords in not realising that i couldnt later change the config, could anyone please help me to bring up this config again or remove the application entirely so i can reinstall and set it up properly? i know this is a pain i shoulda read it properly, thanks

Re: [Announce] I am here - Request GPS position and more with SMS
 

Yes you should have read it properly.

Send yourself an sms with just config as the message. Then read what you are doing.

Jus tried sending config wiv a capital C and that did it, thanks :)
