I don't know, but they aren't open source closed and probably patented, so FastSMS will never include they

I need only some e-books and a bit of time for each language to build dictionaries, but users need to send e-books to me...

I tried it again 4 minutes ago, and Im loving it! Few questions though;


Is it possible to get an option to turn on vibrating feedback for the dials even if your profile has set touch vibration off? For me its only something Id prefer for touchtexting, but annoying in any other circumstance =) .
I think not, perhaps there is some application that allow you to do this...

Is space the issue when it comes to the layout? I find myself missing the "caps/t9" switching the bottom right key traditionally has had on Nokia phones, as well as the symbols menu on the bottom left key. I know I can dig through the 1 button to cycle the symbols, but to be honest its real weird. % comes before the "smiley"-icons ();:= for instance, and the list is long.

If you remove the "prev" and "next" buttons for those two buttons, the "disable t9" button would be removeable, right? Never having been a huge t9 user, I assume the reason for "prev/next" buttons arent merged with the arrowkeys is to move past a word once youve selected the correct one with the "prev/next" keys?

Perhaps a layout with "prev/next" keys for those who choose t9, and a "normal nokia setup" for those of us who dont?
Nice idea switch layout based on FastWrite On or Off...
Smiles and symbols are an open-problem in FastSMS. I didn't already taken a decision about this...but something will come

Hm also, bit tough to reach the contacts and send buttons way up there without shifting the phone a good bit. Maybe the "status bar" with the information about fastwrite, abc and symbols remaining could go way up top to ease the use for women and children and men with short thumbs =P ?

Or perhaps make the text field slightly slimmer but taller to accomodate contacts and send buttons to its side? Perhaps this would even clear the way for the afforementioned "standard nokia setup" keypad to work while keeping the next/prev buttons onscreen up under the contacts/send buttons, if you follow?
I have the same problem lol. SInce yesterday I started to study on how integrate FastSMS as standard virtual keyboard, but it is a quite hard task for me...When and if it becomes true, send and contacts buttons will be not a problem

Wow this all sounds like "wtf is this!!?? I want more!!!", but I merely mean them as suggestions for improvement, as seen by a sole user =) . Its a hell of a good job youve done with this as is, and I really thank you for it.
Thank you to you!
As I said suggestions are always welcome!

Hi realsportcars,
As you are back in developing this nice and extremely useful software, I thought I could suggest something too.
Although the main purpose of FastSMS is for portrait mode, you also have the option of auto-rotate and therefore a landscape mode. I like that idea as it is possible to start writing in portrait and change your mind to use the actual keyboard. Is it possbile to re-design the landscape mode to have much bigger buttons when keyboard is open?
Also i think there is a bug with keyboard use. When I type a letter with keyboard, the cursor stays on left of the last character instead of right. If I have written some characters with virtual keyboard then switch to actual one, all previous characters are erased.
Thanks once more for this nice app!!

-is it possible to have smileys and symbols in fast sms
-the synchronisation with conversations is great but any chance of including delivery reports in that
