Be aware that programs in -devel are unstable and may harm your device (fMMS included, but it shouldnt... I think ).
tried to add extra devel but im getting an error.

is there no other way to download and install fmms properly?

After a couple of fMMS-free weeks, I downloaded and tested version 0.5.0 now.

I had a couple of issues I couldn't reproduce (message sent on N900 but never received on other end, fMMS freezing while re-sizing image) and will investigate, but there's one thing I noticed immediately: contact handling.

I have three contacts in my contact database that share the same name. Two of them are actually the same person (=me), but I split the entry so that I could send VCards to business contacts without giving away my private details and vice versa. The third one is my father; our first name is the same.

What happens in fMMS?

The main view, the list of all contacts, always shows the picture of my father for MMS messages that I sent to myself from my main phone or from the N900 to my main phone. (I don't use the N900 as a phone normally.) It seems the lookup is done by name rather than by number.

Even worse, when I send a message and select entries from the address book, only one of the three entries shows up. (Interesting: This time it's not my father, it's the entry that holds my private contact details.) This means that I can send an MMS to my own private phone, but not to my father and not to my business phone. (Unless I manually type in the number - but I like to use the address book.)

I don't know if the logic is new to v0.5 or if it was there before and simply not that obvious (photo), but it certainly is unusual.

The "disappearing messages" issue is somewhat disturbing, but I plan to add delivery-reports on outgoing messages at sometime which should resolve it .

Yeah, it currently does a lot by name, never thought about people who had contacts with the exact name Either way, Jaffa is pushing some patches to python-evolution so hopefully I'll get this worked out soon(tm)


@andy_con: None here is telepathic, we have no idea what "errors" you are encountering unless you provide us with that information.

Problem with fMMS? Run in x-terminal: cp /tmp/fmms.log /home/user/MyDocs/
After that you'll see fmms.log in filemanager or when you connect the device to your desktop as a mass storage device.
E-mail the log to me, if you don't have the email address, drop me a PM. Thanks!

hi frals, are you planing on adding "Share via fMMS" in picture gallery?

this would be a nice touch.

also today i clicked on fmms to view a previous mms pic and it loaded app then it looked like it closed it so i clicked on fmms again done the same but few seconds later it poped up and i had 2 instanse of fmms running. I tried to open 2 again but it seems its working again fine.

Thanks
