Re: [Announce] mFakeCaller - your friendly portable excuse! (Incoming call spoofer)
 
Thanks for the fast reply kojacker, I'm loving my playtime with this app, actually, I would like to ask, if there's a way to make it fake the call instantly, no tap the screen thingy, that would be killer, I'm invoking the app via wifi (putty is an old friend), I'm saving some profiles into files, so I only have to sh the file, and I would get the call...

That's the only thing left for making it perfect, as, if I ever touch the screen (even when in the phone is inside its protective bag), it will cancel, if I get lucky, the 5 secs will pass and will fake the call.

We don't want an alarm, we want Alarmed to trigger mfakecaller to run at a certain time. So touch the button that currently says "Alarm" and change it from the drop down so it says "Command execution" instead

Also we don't want it to run "Every minute" so change the scheduling button to something else. You can choose a date or time, for testing let's choose "In.." from it's drop down. "In.. " sets a delay.

Once you've given your alarm a name and filled in a command your new alarm setup should look like this. Here, I'll get a call from best friend of opensource Steve Jobs in 5 seconds time - he's a very important man and he might sue me if I keep him waiting!

Simply hit "Save event" and in 5 seconds (or so) you should start feeling the familiar rumblings of mfakecaller starting up. Easy, right? :)

Because Alarmed saves your previous events, it keeps a list of them by name that you only need to go back into and trigger again when you need them. Think of them a little like fake call profiles, saves a lot of time filling them in :)

I just installed Alarmed and mfakecaller, i can't use command /usr/bin/mfakecaller on Alarmed, nothing showed up after i set it to 5 secs, and save event, then i manually checked to /usr/bin/ and theres no file named mfakecaller. problem??

Thanks all for the update ideas above, apologies for not replying sooner - this is a bit of an old app and I haven't been following it closely for a while.

I can only offer you limited help Dhicky as i don't have access to a N900, but i would have expected the binary to be in the '/usr/bin' path.

Please try this:

Step 1: Can you try launching it from the icon? If it works from there, then we'll have to try and find out where it has installed on your phone.

Step 2: Launch it from terminal (see this post for more details). This should let you know if it's installed there.

Let me know what you find out.

Thanks kojacker, yes its on /home/opt/usr/bin/
i solved it, now i can run it well :)
im waiting for the next release..

if you mind, i want to give a suggestion for the next updates.
trigger answer button to play audio files in low volume (optional). example : a person talking audio that could be from many sources, recorded files for instance, so that people near us can hear it but faintly. so they are convinced its a real call :) thank you

Thanks Dhicky, im really pleased that you were able to get it working :)

Thanks also for the suggestions. I'm afraid i'm not sure when I'll ever get my hands on a N900 again so i can't promise any updates soon, though I like your suggestion a lot :)

I did have an update for mFakeCaller where the images and bits and pieces were selectable from popup windows which was much nicer but it never was released generally.

To be honest it was only made as a simple application and I never expected it to go anywhere, indeed i didn't expect anyone to still be asking about it lol :p It would be cool if someone was to take on the concept and release a more complete app with new features - I think it would make an ideal starter project :cool:
