Hi, I have had a whole lot of packages missing which I have installed. However the one I can't install is sharing-fmms. It says it "can't find package sharing-fmms"
any ideas please........

I don't know if it matters, but it actually does the same thing scrolling down. I found this out yesterday as I was trying to get suitable screenshots (but since you've seen the issue, no need to post them). (=

Thanks again for your efforts!

FYI frals, I looked into share via service problem and was able to duplicate contacts not loading issue.

I verified that it loads my addressbook with >273 contacts. I did this by printing length of get_all_contacts in ContactHandler __init__().

But for some reason contact chooser dialog only displays 'Voicemail' as only available contact to choose from.

I'll keep digging tonight

BTW, if I manually launch fmms_sender, contact chooser shows all my addressbook entries. So this problem only happens when 'share via service' calls back fmms.

This issue with being launched from share vi is pretty interesting, the contact list is properly loaded if I add a line that doesnt execute until the window closes (line makes the app throw an exception), otherwise it just refuses to work... Going to do some more testing

First of all many thanks to frals for creating the fmms app

Now with mms (on other phones), it gives you the option of being able to send sound or a movie upto 300kb (I think).
With my old C902 even though it too had a 5mp camera it gave you the option of being able to record a video specifically for mms (20 seconds) then afterwards it would automatically compress it to within the 300k specification, and allow me to send a video.

Does anyone know if the N900 has the ability to do this, and if so, is it likely that we can see this being integrated into fmms or some other mms type app in the future?

If its not been suggested already, can this be a request to frals to develop this functionality to fmms. Thanks

Odd. Doesn't work. I also powered up my last phone and cheched its settings. Same settings for MMS AP and it sends MMSs just fine. When N900 connects no "multimedia", and the browser fails.

The old phone doesn't have the ability to ping or anything, so I'm a bit lost. On the odd(er) side, I connected with a bad password and it still connects and gives IP. Hm.
