Hi to all, My GF's daugther just got an 7" OMY Q88 tablet with 8Gb flash, 512Mb Ram, 1GHz A13 Cpu, running (Android version 4.0.4 - Baseband 1.5 - kernel 3.0.8+ [email protected] #95 - build number nuclear_evb-eng_AL_4.0.4), from her mother and I'm trying to see if I can get it to work with SMS and phone calls.
So I'm using Globe tattoo usb stick E1552 & E153(rebranded Huawei) attached by USB dongle. Both work fine for internet using PPPwidget and sending SMS through GO SMS Pro, but is unable to receive SMS or make phone calls(I tried most dialers from Play store).
Thoose things work perfect on a pc, so what is Android missing?
She needs this tablet when starting in college this comming june, and there is no public Wi-Fi on campus.
Here in the Philippines, things we take for granted in other countries, are scares to be found.
There are plenty of apps for windows and pc but eventhough I have used 5 days and looked though hundreds of google pages using different search criterias, I have not been able to find a solution for Android.
As I see it, there is connection, otherwise I would not be able to send SMS.
A few examples for pc:

http://mobiforge.com/developing/story/sms-messaging-android
The last one is alien language to me as I'm not an programmer.
I even installed the JB Messaging app from XDA - but sadly it had no effect.
What I need is offline SMS, there are plenty of apps for online SMS but her money is not enough for constant internet.
Hope someone can help
with kind regards
JBJ
Allmost 1 year later and no-one has a solution??????
You guys are briliant in any other way, can't one of you figure out to make an app that can tap into the phone/sms functions of a usb modem - just like it works in windows?
Please
JBJ
Ps. this guy made it work for Pc. Maybe his work can be converted to android?

Hi
Does it require the other device to have Gomeo too in order to share ?
YES other devices around you must have Goomeo to share files...
Thank you for the answer, for the sharing and for the work
Good luck

Thanks
it seems to b e a nice thing, is there a part for sharing files to pc ?
we plan to offer a version for Windows laptop and netbook

Cool idea
Reminds me a little bit of Dropbox, when folders are shared - even it's totally different to it

im dying to find a usable P2P program for my htc ozone. if u come out with a non touchscreen version, pm me and i would be more than happy to test it.
Update 1.01
@zorgan
I wonder, how you want to release it for Android, if there is root needed for enabling WiFi ad-hoc mode? Will it be for rooters only?
@Brut.all
I know the "issue 82" on Android. First i release for root users and if google decide to correct this issue it will be available for all on Android.
I work on the same time on BB and Nokia device and it works fine
been looking for something like this..will try it out on a HTC Jade and see...my main use is to be able to transfer files from one device to another...
Hi everybody,
I have a question (or a functionality proposal?) for UrukDroid.
I have a smarphone and an Archos 70IT, but i was asking myself if, with a 3G dongle and some mods, my Archos can do all these things? And if it's possible, how? And if it isn't could I help for it?
Thanks for future answer, and keep up the good work
No, because almost all Data-3G-Sticks have no support for the calling protocols, just data and sometimes SMS...
OK, may be is not all you want... but
maybe yo can... not like mobile, but yes like sip.
with a sip provider, and Fring, you just have got a telephone !!!!!!!
=;-)
@N23, Aouch, so bad, so i can't
So i have to do an app who will allow me to write my SMS with my tablet and send them from my phone (HTC Wildfire)
@julen164, yes, good idea, but that's not what i want :s
if you want SMS service aswell....
voxigo it is a voip service with sms too
=;-)
No, i want to send my SMS from my phone (i'm unlimited ^^)
(I think i'll have to make an app for that, so ... i'll do ^^)
I don't unerstand you.
what you want?
if you want a telephone service + sms service in your A70,
voxigo has an android app, running like a voip telephone, and you can send sms too, with that app, so you have a full telephone (VOiP) in your A70.
If you want to send SMS, with your actual telephone (mobile) number, send it with your actual mobile.
In any case, some other voip services, like voipcheap, can send sms with an associated mobile number as sender id.
what else?
=;-)
I want to replace my mobile phone with my tablet (bigger screen).
But if i can't replace all its functions, i want to write my sms with the tablet (bigger screen again)
Is that clearer?
Just now,
I understand your specs......
I have read again your post...
Now I think I understand your necs...
and maybe this app can help you....
http://es.androlib.com/android.application.pl-androiddev-mobiletab-qEttt.aspx
with it, you can conect to your mobile with wifi, fron your A70, and then use your mobile line, to send SMS....
Thats it, no?
It could do the job, but it's a little bit to heavy.
An home made apps would be lighter, an app that will connect the SMSManager from the phone to the tablet, then i just need an app like Handcent and it's done (that's what i hope, i'll try and see ^^)

there is an app that does sms over bluetooth or wifi I think, but I can't recall what it is or if it works between two android devices or only works between your android device and a pc. I know there's a pc to android tool but I have a feeling there's another one which tethers two android devices to do sms.
Pretty sure I'm right cuz I used it on my hero tethered to my galaxy tab (when I still owned a tab).
EDIT: here it is: http://www.androlib.com/android.application.com-grrzzz-remotesmsfull-qFij.aspx
I think it has an http server so you can sms over a web browser (which should, in theory, let you do so from your archos - but not the ideal interface for sure).
PM me if you want to discuss the app further since I have it here.
EDIT 2: Never mind! it requires that the phone and controlling device (tablet) be on a wifi network already. I don't know if it would work with an ad-hoc network between the two since I can't ad-hoc on my a101 yet. So this might not be what you need, but I think it's the closest app so far. someone actually posted a comment about it saying that they should write an android client for it too for tablet use. So it seems you and I aren't the only ones who want to do sms from the bigger tablet screen compared to our little phone screens!
Yes the web interface is not the fastest for that (and Android have something to control SMS, so why not using it?). I think the DIY is the best (and, with that i'll learn more about dev on Android ^^)
Hey all, wasn't sure where to place this thread... hope its in the right place.
I plugged in an E1550 3g dongle in the usb slot on the dock. Ran the UMTS Manager app (root needed).
I'm in Portugal, and my 3g provider is Optimus Kanguru. So, for portuguese users, all you need to change is the profile to 'other', and the APN to 'kanguru-portatil'... keep DNS at 8.8.8.8... and just start it by clicking 'Verbindung herstellen!'
The E1550 dongle wasn't supported, but it still worked.
Others from different providers/countries should be able to use it too. Just search for what APN configuration you might need.
For me, entering websites happens pretty fast. I've seen in another thread where a user could surf but not download files/apps etc... I tested that, and yes, apparently the only thing you can do is surf the net, which i guess isn't bad at all.
Maybe there's a tweak to be able to download and use other apps...
Oh, almost forgot. I'm on stock .21 (rooted, but not unlocked)
Edit_1:
The app was updated, and now the interface can be in portuguese! Thanks Jörg Köhler (this app's creator)!
Edit_2:
You can use Mobile Counter App to measure the data traffic of your connection.
Other Info: Tested speed using OpenSignal app, and i got a ping of 319ms, max download of 2mbps, and 0 (zero) upload speed -.-
The things you can do/use with UMTS Manager's connection are:
- Youtube App (or other apps of the sort, like the dailymotion app)
- Surf Web
- Search Apps in Google Play (but not download/upgrade apps)
- Google Maps (but it cannot pinpoint your location)
- Google Earth
- Receive and send mail with the gmail app
(But you can only do it when the app opens... if you want to receive again, close the gmail app with the task manager, and open it again.)
(To send email, just write the mail you wanna send and click send. then you gotta close the gmail app with the task manager and open it again... it will then send the mail you wrote)
- You can download stuff from dropbox using the dropbox app!
That's about it for now... need more testing.
Would appreciate tremendously if anyone knew how to make it so we could download/upload freely as if we were using wifi.
probably only leaves port 80 open (html/web). Might be a way to forward all ports to 80?
My E261 is OK too.
I think all Huawei dongle can be supported, because all Huawei dongle have same AT command.
Thank you very much, sir!
I was trying to find out how to use a 3G dongle (Huawei E153) with my TF201 and your post solved the problem. I downloaded the UMTS Manager, made settings for my operator (Saunalahti Prepaid, Finland) and it works perfectly well
Thanks again, I found your information very valuable.
T-Mobile.mk (my provider) gave me an HUAWEI E173
spend a week looking for answer or "how to" for this
nothing there ...
(double eek) Just put mine Prime to re-charge
Jörg Köhler (the creator of UMTS Manager **root**) stated that it'll work ... so double eager to try this sw
Google Translate gave me
Code:
This is a UMTS stick on Asus Prime Transformer can be used.
As UMTS Stick have been tested, type:
HUAWEI E 160
[B]HUAWEI E 173[/B] [SIZE="2"](that's mine)[/SIZE]
HUAWEI E220
HUAWEI K3715
until I try it my guess is that it'll work
if it's working
Hell Yaeh for @eddymonti (OP) and Jörg
HUAWEI E 173 3G usb dongle from my T-Mobile.mk is not recognizable
any one with any thing .... much appreciated
I was referring to this method particularly http://techwalls.com/gadget/3g-usb-asus-transformer/
probably we gonna need some more experienced users
Not working on Orange Cameroun.
ohh they joy of being an aid worker !
Can't wait to go back to my LTE dongle in Canada !

Compatible with MiFi?
You guys mentioned that it is compatible across all Huawei Dongles. Would that also mean it is compatible with Huawei Pocket MiFis? (ex. Huawei E587). Thanks!

Isn't MiFis like the E587 a portable hotspot? I think that you just need wifi for those. This app is just for usb connected dongles.
Would this kill my att USA unlimited data? ... how are packets sent out....

Huawei E353 works
Just tried this and have got my Huawei E353 working but have the same as some previously stated problems.
Browsers seem to work fine and play store browsing but again cannot get some apps to connect.
My wifi is rubbish on the boat I work on, so the extra browsing speed while in mobile range is fantastic!
I mean a GOOD app, which means it needs to support delivery reports - I need to know the SMS I sent with it has been received.
That is the most crucial function and the lack of it makes the following apps completely useless to me:
- MightyText
- AirDroid
- DeskSMS
I am baffled how their developers can keep them on the market since years without this function.
The only exception is/was EasySMS, but it is very old, slow, no longer developed and it doesn't work on Android 4.4 (and some stock 4.2 roms). It still works on CM-based 4.3 roms, though.
I'm answering my own question here in hope it will help someone else, too.
After 3 years (no joke), I finally found the solution: mySMS. It comes with an sms app for the phone, but you can keep using your old favourite sms app and the remote sms with delivery reports will still work (as long as mysms is installed).
Plus, the phone does not need to be connected to the internet when you're writing the message. It will be sent as soon as the phone goes online. Excellent.
Now, the only thing I am waiting for is delivery time deport, so that I know when exactly the message was received. They are very responsive on their idea/problem/suggestion forum so I am relatively hopeful.
But for now, I am happy with it as it.
Yet I am still surprised this is the only app that does that.
And to all of the zounds of people who for the last two years were being consistently ignored by MightyText developers - here's your solution!
Hi guys
I'm not 100% sure if this is the right forum area, please pardon me if it isn't.
I'm coming from Symbian OS (Nokia) and using their NOKIA OVI SUITE/PC SUITE for YEARS and it's been terrific. obviously this is the end of the road for it since Nokia/MS is not giving their desktop software much attention.. now i've migrated to Android and I needed an alternative to Nokia PC Suite..
Yes i've googled and searched and found a lot of so called alternatives. but i wanted to save time instead of installing all these options and testing em for myself.. (and i have tested a few already)
What I need is something like Nokia PC Suite w/c are:
1) very good at phonebook and SMS management (Sedning/receiving)
2) can connect both via USB or WIRELESS (bluetooth preferred)
3) Has a real DESKTOP software, not limited due to being browser based (like a lot of the options out there)
4) NOT CLOUD-DEPENDENT .. offline capable
A lot of options i've tried such as AirDroid falls short of at least 1 of the above requirements ..the only Software i tried that came pretty close to what i really want is MoboRobo .. but it has some short comings like unable to send multi-part sms (the software splits it up) and it needs to scan QR everytime i want to connect wirelessly (not automatic/remembering the last connection)
So i'm continuing the hunt and hopefully some of ya'll more experienced android users can shorten the journey for me.
Thanks everyone..
hmm i guess im stuck w/ moborobo
