http://weisms.googlecode.com/files/isms-1.0-rc1.zip

iSMS 1.0-rc1(PXL) is available for download! The installer source is still waiting for STE’s update and I know he’s busy recently, so please be patient.

READ FIRST
– To 1.1.3 Users
1.1.3 is is not supported yet. So please don’t install if you’re. It will not work. Why ? well I have only one iPhone(phone and toy as well) I don’t want to take the risk of upgrading it to 1.1.3. That’s it.

– To 1.1.2 Users
Some advanced/cool features is not working on your phone, such as SMS black list, badge update… Why? same reason as above.

– To 1.0.2 & 1.1.1 users
Congrats, I’m sticky on 1.0.2, so sure it will work without any problems. Also I have the chance to debug my app on my friend’s 1.1.1 phone and all features should work also on 1.1.1

– What’s new since 1.0 RC1 ?
* A new helper module(dylib) is introduced and by injecting it into the SpringBoard process, iSMS now can take over the default apple SMS application! (Currently only support 1.0.2/1.1.1)
* Simple but True SMS BlackList?, yes it’s true! No pop up, no daemon! Message will be deleted silently though.
* New recipient UI. after several days’s hard reversing, I finally managed to use the system UI components to display the recipients. More apple-ish Now!
* Save to draft
* Template customization
* Could remove the 1000 message capacity limit.

iSMS 1.0RC1 is not perfect, but it has been tested by 10K chinese iPhoners during the lunar chinese new year. So it should work for most of you. If you have any problems, please submit issue ticket at http://code.google.com/p/weisms/

Last but not least, Thanks for your interesting and please consider donate if you think it’s good. With your help, I believe I can make a killer SMS app for you.

iMapIdle v0.6 (iPhone Application)

iMapIdle is an iPhone application that simulates “Push Email” with your IMAP server. It’s in its early stages but the current features are:

– listens in the background waiting for new IMAP mail even if you are in sleep/standby mode
– notifies you via a popup and/or sound. You choose how to be notified. Sound notification should use the same method your mail client uses (ie: if you have vibrate on, it’ll vibrate as well)
– popup notification allows you to choose whether the mail client should check for email right there by forcing the mail client to check the server (it doesn’t launch the mail client but just forces it to check the server). NOTE: Don’t choose this if you are in the mail client as it will exit (you’ve been warned). The popup will disappear after 20 seconds and if you miss it the iMapIdle icon will show you how many popup notifications you have missed
– supports SSL connections and special support for GMail IMAP

MobileChat v2.1 (iPhone WIP)

twenty08 are about the release MobileChat v2.1 this week…

Read on:

We’ll be release MobileChat 2.1 later this week/this weekend. It works fully on 1.1.3.This isn’t a major release, it’s more of a compatibility release with a few fixes and a feature add:
– Works on 1.1.3
– DNS Issue that plagued 1.x and 2.0 has been resolved.
– BSD Subsystem dependency should be gone.
– Added support for XMPP
– Tweaked GTalk settings
– Sign On progress notifications (as seen in screenshots)
– Disconnect Notification: if you get kicked off, or you can’t sign on, you’ll be alerted now

AIM is working fine, the hold up is with XMPP/GTalk. While we resolved the DNS issues that really held both services back during the initial release of 2.0, we’re running into issues with authentication on both services now. We’re exploring the option of upgrading to libpurple 2.3, and have it 95% compiled on the iPhone at this point. Should only be another few days to finish up the port of libpurple to the iPhone and then upgrading the method calls in the application.

I’m sure the AIM users are going to be saying “I don’t care about XMPP, I want it now” however, believe me, a newly compiled libpurple on the iPhone will definitely improve performance.

Stay tuned guys!

Oh, and for those of you who really can’t wait for us to release this later this week, SVN Revision 72 works fine for AIM.
