I have searched everywhere and my wife and I have had no luck, we are looking for an app or software like mobile spy that is free. We use sms to email to backup each others calls and texts, but is there a way to have an app do all of this as well as backup any image taken to email and perhaps even remote access?
We love doing this, it is a wonderful trust building exercise that has made us stronger and I would like her to be able to monitor more.
We are both rooted with custom roms.
Thanks in advance

You can use Titanium Backup and set it to backup to your Dropbox directly.

I installed Lookout security on my phone to find it if I lose it. I have never had a problem with it. I am now running the latest MIUI 10.1.28 and reinstalled Lookout. The built in firewall keeps informing me that Lookout is trying to send SMS. This seems a bit fishy to me.
Nope......
I have it with CM7. No problems with it and nothing at all like what you mentioned.

I'm on MIUI Nexus Prime 360 v1.3 with Lookout. I had an experience similar to yours, I uninstalled it and downloaded a fresh version from the market. Since, that time I only use the MIUI Backup to restore it.
Why would Lookout keep trying to send an SMS message? Is it trying to ask for an update? OR, is it sending them my call patterns, usage, or personal information?
Although I to am confused as to why Lookout looks my texts my texts, (which us why that popup only happens when you receive a text) I have found that if you open the superuser app and click on Lookout >SMS > Allow... you will no longer get that popup.

That's because you don't see the sms messages being sent back to Lookout. Either they are database update requests or your messages are being sent to them? Just don't know.

Try bobsled calling from the play store
Sent from my HTC Glacier using XDA
Does bobsled allow you to make free phone calls over wifi/ data? I checked it on playstore and web but it doesn't say much about calling, it's more about texts (which people are complaining that it's not free) ?

Viber? I use it for calling a lot
Plus it's absolutely free.

Well, I don't know what that means, but...
GrooVe IP + Google Voice
If you already have a GV number, then just install GrooVe IP. If GrooVe IP hasn't fixed the "keep WiFi on" issue yet, then you can solve that with Advanced Wifi Lock. I also use Llama to manage WiFi, because the battery will drain very fast if you keep WiFi on.
Thanks to all and especially MechMan! I got groove IP happening! Would love to stay n chat but I gotta go dig into all my new settings

ALL Samsung based ROMs are doing this (look at screenshot) when I restore SMS backups I get 4-5 different threads, to the same person. While on A aosp based ROM THIS DOESNT HAPPEN!!! Why??? Its so damn annoying. I want all my sms to a person on one place - not scattered all over the SMS app any help?

What app are you using to backup and restore your SMS'?
I can strongly recommend "SMS Backup+"... also I'd recommend to ditch the default SMS program and go with e.g. Go SMS Pro

You give it less than 24 hours from original post and decide to slag off at the XDA community? YOu know we aren't your personal paid techs right?
Any recognition it's the weekend AND getting into holiday season for most people?
And I don't see your screenshot either...
Are there any stock messaging apps that handle group texting correctly? It's absurd to me that our stock app doesn't have this. And I've used hand cent as well, which technically shouts what I need, but I've found it causes other issues and overall I just don't like it.

Flash any one of the several new 4.2.2 ROMs that have been ported to the i717...you'll have a pleasant little gift waiting for you
I know I've seen it before but I can't remember where, but I am looking for an app that can send and receive text messages via Bluetooth or WiFi I don't really want to use Google voice due to the voicemail portion always sucking. The ones I've found on the play store always seem to have tons of bad reviews. Thanks.

I use MightyText and it works really well. I can send and receive text and picture messages immediately. Some other ones I tried take really long before I can send a message, but this one is quick!
Mighty text is great

AT&T had an app called AT&T messages for the tablet. It allows you to access all your messages and when you send a text it shows up as coming from your phone.

Never used mighty text, but tablet talk has worked great for me in the past.

I just set this up using DeskSMS / TabletSMS. The text messages send via my phone (and are also visible on my PC via a Chrome plug-in). I am very happy with it.
Of course it requires the phone to have an active data connection as well as the tablet, so that might not be what you are looking for.
Is there way to use tablet talk without the headset? Talk through the tablets microphone and hear through the speakers?
