...
- in the command1 tab, automatically a space is added after the prefix when applying to the commands. This doesn't happen on the commands2 screen.
- biggest issue for me so far is the fact that the controlling sms'es send from another GSM are visible to the thief. He sees them, he can follow along and will be alarmed right away (I would ...). Can't they not be intercepted ? This might need more hacker like skills. Hopefully someone can chip in.
- what's the idea of the 'call' command ? It's very obvious to the thief something dodgy is running on his new 'found' toy as all happens 'in the open'. Can it not be done hidden ? And not recorded of course ... I agree, of course, this software would then be possibly used unlawfully as a spying device ... I guess this is then the moral question of 'buying a big knife' to use in the kitchen to filet your fish OR kill your neighbor ...
some ideas for further releases :
- I vote for a remote wipe command (of the contacts, conversations, and all non-smscon related data/config. Of course we still want smscon to help us track the device, even if it's empty in terms of normal user-level data.
- hide the smscon-editor in the normal application list. Make it only xterm startable. Use system like names in the App manager list.
rm /usr/share/applications/hildon/smscon-editor.desktop
- give the smscon process a different name, something more like 'systemd', normal users won't know or suspect anything, in case they ever see something happening, cpu wise. (eg Conky)
- I use my N900 in multiple countries, with multiple SIM cards. When I change countries, I put always my country specific SIM card in my N900. And I put my backup SIM card in my backup phone. So I would prefer a list of 'Allowed SIMs', maybe propose auto adding it via the editor.
- Same enhancement area, depending on my SIM installed, a specific (changing) Mobile number should be auto informed if an non-authorized SIM is inserted. So some config settings (mainly mobile number, possibly others) should ideally be SIM dependent.
