Recenzia hodiniek Sony Ericsson MBW-150 Executive Edition (SK)
Let me tell you how god like you and pcfixitman are! very, god like, very...
But the program is not (yet) working on the Professional version of Windows Mobile 6.
I tried it on an Xda orbit 2 (HTC Touch Cruise) and the procedures seem to match, it changes the type of device into headset, I can assign an outgoing port and I can add an incoming port. All fine.
But there seems to be an incompatibility with the OS. It spits out the following error when I select "Open COM":
Code:
smartWatchM.exe
IOException

But great work, I might marry you
EDIT: I softreset the PPC and now it just kind of worked. The devices communicated with each other, I got some output on the screen and I could make the watch vibrate. It doesn't work anymore *just now*. I'll keep trying...
EDIT 2: Since my girlfriend gave me the watch as a (ridiculously expensive) present and it didnt work till now, she - upon I demonstrated her your work - said, and I quote: "Offer that guy my body..."

This is coming along nicely, it works great on WM6 Pro. I thought about the program and came up with some proposals:
Once you port it to unmanaged code (C/#/+ of some sort I guess) can you make it use language files? Users could customize/localize the messages like that.
You could implement several control modes. Like music player control, or system msg control (show info/rss/battery etc msg) or whatever and switch modes by applying a button combination. Next/prev toggles between modes for example. You get the idea.
If possible you could even implement some kind of a plugin system. An API of some sort so that ppl could write their own extensions to use the watches ability. I can't think of anything useful yet, maybe use the watch to control the PPC which then acts as an infra red remote control for the TV. Just whatever stupid ppl can come up with
Thats it, more or less, what I could come up with.

It's too early for that.
Most important thing will be text converter (text -> hex) that will allow possible dynamic text/graphic output to the watch (reading SMS/Email...). The display is 96x16 so even 2-line output would be possible.

Yeah, I got the same idea. First I'm gonna make some switching modes in WM application util everything will be optimized.

I've heard about remote control already. Plugins... Too early to say ....
Anyway, I'm still working on improving stability (dummyproof, avoid any crash), better (faster) event handling and adding new features.
Hmm, finally someone made a wm plugin for this great piece of hardware
Have been eying it before, but without a wm plugin it was pretty much useless.
When I get the chance I'll buy one for sure now.
Will check out on this thread for the progress you make
Well of course it's waaaay to early for all that, I was just thinking out loud. Thats all. But putting graphics/multi line text on the display, oh god, buddy, you could charge 20 bucks for that thing if you'd finish it
It's working great btw, I tested it quite hard today. I ran across the following:
If the watch is out of range and you get a message, sWM crashes because (thats what I read out of the message) it tries to access the non-existant device on the com port sending the new msg notification:
Code:
bei System.IO.Ports.SerialStream.Write()
bei System.IO.Ports.SerialPort.Write()
bei System.IO.Ports.SerialPort.WriteLine()
bei smartWatchM.Form1.timer2_Tick()
bei System.Windows.Forms.Timer._WnProc()
bei System.Windows.Forms.ApplicationThreadContext._InternalContextMessages()
bei Microsoft.AGL.Forms.EVL.EnterMainLoop()
bei System.Windows.Forms.Application.Run()
bei smartWatchM.Program.Main()
schaggo: I tried calling my phone while watch was out of reach - without any crash. So maybe I have corrected it meanwhile.
schaggo, what watch do you have? MBW-150?
I have implemented few more features (battery status (5-level), notification repeat, new message type (envelope + message type)...) so you may test & report.
For now, sWM offers even more features than Sony Ericsson phone (in case you dont use Media Player control and dont need reject incoming calls).
I have an MBW-150 Classic like you.
And it makes me freak out, because I owned a SonyEricsson P1 and was going nuts because the watch worked so well and all features *cough couch lol* were supported. And on WM nothing worked. But SonyEricsson actually was wrong, the watch has as many features, as the agent on the phone can control. So, well, let's say sWM is f***ing exciting! I'll get on testing...
I just downloaded the newest version (0.1.3.1 I guess).
I ran intro a problem though. I can't successfully establish a clean connection anymore. It hangs at AT+CCLK? and before that throws ALOT of ERROR: No data. Press... to start. at me. It does that again after a couple seconds. The watch just continues to connect (<<<<<<<B>>>>>>>)

Waiting for connection. Press a button on watch to initiate connection.
Edit: Strangely though, it seems to work now. I tried a couple times with disconnecting, turning bluetooth on and off on the device and the watch, and now it seems to work.
This may happen from time to time if sWM doesnt respond to all initiation commands. It's probably because watch was already sending commands when you press Start. But I'm not 100% sure anyway. Even I have to deal with this sometime...
Turn on/off BT on both watch and WM. Try waiting few seconds (before you press button on watch). Or restart your WM. This helps a lot.
EDIT: I have done some fixes in v0.1.3.2. I believe this prevent from that error as much as possible.
EDIT2: One more time... v0.1.4.0 should be more power-savy, and has faster responses.
Ok, downloading V0.1.4.0 and testing. I'll report back in once I find more stuff to complain about
GREAT .....
Great Work .....
NOW, I can finally buy myself the BlueTooth / Abacus for my WM 6 PDA !!!
You must continue.
THX
I found the new version to be very very fast. Congrats on that!
From time to time the watch reports a lost connection though.
Watch and PDA are on the table and out of the blue the watch vibrates and shows lost connection. Dunno if it's a fundamental bluetooth problem or some communication errors with the program.
Another thing: my mum called me today and the watch only vibrated without showing the number. I gonna run a test right now: Indeed, the watch only vibrates without passing on the number. It shows the "Missed call" though after I hang up. Did you change anything in that routine?
Edit: Minor annoyance spotted: smartWatchM doesn't speak foreign languages, ë for example shows up as ? on the phone...

This never happen to me. I lost the connection only if I leave room without my phone. I guess this may be weak BT. Or maybe WM close sWM because of memory?

I've just checked that and it should still work. If the watch rings without showing phone number/caller name, this is result of
wrong initiation. I tried that several times today and got this error only one time. Exiting the application and starting again helped. My only advice is: Do not immidiately start the communication but wait a while. My connection is successful in 95% tries. BTW, I do not turn off BT.
I will test sWP on other devices.

Does it display "ë" with SE phone? I think the watch support only ASCII. I will add feature that will unaccent the characters.
I doubt that WM closes sMW. I'm a memory freak and I immediately close every application I don't use anymore. And the Touch Cruise with 128mb RAM should be stong enough to run sWM
I guess I'm to dumb or the Bluetooth stacks in our phones are *not exactly* the same, hence the inconveniences. But they are minor and not really something to care about at this point. But as you said, restarting the program and turning bluetooth on and of usually resolves the problem very quickly.
As for the accent, I don't know. I'd have to check that. Let's see where I can get a SE from
(I actually have 3 laying around... just to lazy to switch sim cards )
watch+bluetooth headset?
I have an HTC Athena, it is possible to have connected in the same time the watch and a bluetooth headset? If is possible it will be the perfect combination....
Hi,
great thing it should work on WM6, because I got the watch as a present, and me or them did not know it would only work with some phones.
I have a question for you: How do i enter the registry values on windows mobile 6 (smartphone)
i installed PHM Registry Editor, and i can enter all keys and values but don't know how to do this one:
sdprecord"=hex:36,00,32,36,00,2F,09,00,00,0A,00,01,00,00,09,00,01,35,03,19,11,01,09,00,04,35,0C,35,03,19,01,00,35,05,19,00,03,08,01,09,01,00,25,09,47,50,53,20,52,46,63,6F,6D"
I tried to add a binary value with value starting from 36,00,.... and so one, but i couldn't enter all of it due to maximum characters. Kind of stuck here, anyone an idea?
Yeehaw!
Can't wait for the next version!
The latest one so far looks promising and works like a charm.
Thanks!

Hello all,
current version is 1.4.1 beta
my own attempt to add the missing "missed call" and "missed sms" reminder to WM 6, WM 6.1 and WM 6.5
the idea here was to keep it simple. the program can vibrate and or generate a chosen sound at a set interval, to notify the user that there are missed calls or unread sms messages. it will wakeup the device if needed to give the notification.
Note: The program has been created and tested on PocketPC phones only. This program might or might not work correctly on Smartphones.
to use:
install the cab on the device or the storage card.
launch the application and set your preferences.
click apply, the program will minimize. it is neccessary to keep the program running to have it generate new reminders, but it only uses the cpu when needed it does not poll every minute or so to see if a notification came in.
hope that someone will find this usefull
The program currently offers the following:
missed notification for missed call/ sms / mms and e-mail
No reminder when call is in progress
Option to set sound per reminder type (the sounds will,if needed, be generated all at once for the moment, this could be changed in the future)
option to "minimize to taskbar" or "minimize and hide"
Lock screen on phone call connect (I am using this myself and decided to keep it in. it locks the screen using the windows lock when a phonecall is connected. it unlocks the screen when a phonecall is finished. Default this is off, and you do not have to use it if you do not want to.)
Option to set vibrate time in seconds
LED vibrate number can be chosen from 0 till 20
Option to not wakeup the device
Option to not give reminder in set timespan (if you specify from 2300 till 0700, it means that the program will not generate a reminder between 2300 and 0700 each day)
About box
Should display in QVGA/VGA/WQVGA/WVGA
The program uses almost no cpu time, only when it is needed
one "advanced user" registry key in HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Software/MissedCallReminder:
debug: Default is "False", if set to "True", the program will generate debug information in a logfile. to help me indentify problems.
NOTE: apparently Omnia devices use the sms count for both SMS and MMS, that means that the program should generate a MMS reminder if SMS reminder is selected. I would like to hear from Omnia users if this is true.

A small FAQ
Q: what does Vibrate LED number mean?
A: The LED number specified here is used to vibrate the device. This is different per device. Using the "Menu - Test vibrate" you can test if the number entered in the vibrate LED number field is the correct one for vibrating the device.
Q: what does the menu option "No icon in taskbar mean?
A: the option "Menu - No icon in taskbar" controls the "minimize to taskbar" or "minimize and hide".
When "No icon in taskbar" is NOT selected the program will minimize to the taskbar. the program can only be reopened using the icon in the taskbar. it is not visible in the taskmanager.
When "No icon in taskbar" is selected the program will only minimize. it can be reopened by relaunching the program. it is also visible in the taskmanager.
TouchFlo user should select the "No icon in taskbar". when doing this please close the program and relaunch it for the setting to take effect.
Q: What does "Lock screen on call connect" mean?
A: it locks the screen using the windows lock when a phonecall is connected. it unlocks the screen when a phonecall is finished. Default this is off, and you do not have to use it if you do not want to.
Q: I cannot relaunch the program when it is already running using the program icon.
A: please see post # 2:

Further explanation for the program does not start from program icon
I'll try to explain with some pictures how the program behaves when the no icon in taskbar option is selected or not selected. Just to be sure that it is not the cause for users who are experiencing problems with reopening the program using the program icon:
first situation:
You have installed MissedCallReminder and you start it for the first time, If you change nothing and select Apply the following will now happen:
Menu - no icon in taskbar is NOT selected (noiconintaskbar.jpg)
The program is not visible in any Taskmanager's application list
The MissedCallReminder icon is visible in the taskbar (Iconintaskbarnotselected.jpg)
When this is happening the program will not react to clicks on the program icon in the programs list, it can only be reopened using the taskbar icon.
second situation
You have installed MissedCallReminder and you start it for the first time, you select Menu - no icon in taskbar AND completely exit the application using Menu - Exit. You then restart the program and select Apply and the following will now happen:
Menu - no icon in taskbar is selected (Iconintaskbarselected.jpg)
The program is visible in any Taskmanager's application list (visibleintaskmanager.jpg)
The MissedCallReminder icon is NOT visible in the taskbar
When this is happening the program will react to clicks on the program icon in the programs list.
Request: If users experience this and are certain the above situation is not the case then i would be very interested in what the program registry settings are. if you are able to do this could those users please open a registry editor and navigate to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\MyMissedCallReminder and tell me the value of the key "minimizetotaskbar"
cool.. i'll be using it

Looks neat
Throwing in an idea, hope it's ok. It would be good if you could have reminders for only missed calls and not messages (or the other way around for that matter - looks like you will get the same reminders from both on the screenshots).
I'm biking a lot and don't always won't to stop to read a new message, hence reminders can be a bit annoying. On the other hand, I'm wearing my headset so I always pick up calls

Good Job, it works on my KS20

No Vibrating
No vibrating on ASUS P535!
How do you HTC people cope with the reminder witch turns on the screen. In your pocket, an unwanted touch on the screen could run an application?
The Asus P535 has an HOLD button!
Too bad the button apply can't be reached with a 240x320 (landscape) display like the one used on the IPAQ 914C

when applying the settings you can also specify the LED number to vibrate (default is 1) . please try this. perhaps it will be usefull to have a test option.
regarding the unwanted touch problem, i personally use S2U2, so when the device wakes up i do not have this problem.
what i can do is add an option that the device does not wakeup when a reminder is given. but that does mean that you will not hear any reminder until the device wakes up.

There are programs that still work in SLEEP MODE (for example, autoflight is always telling me the time....even in sleep mode).

i think the LED number for vibrate could be any number between 0 - 5, but i do not know for sure, it is 1 on my Touch. i must admit that setting the LED number is not very clear for first time users. I do not know how to make it so that it automatically uses the correct number.
I'm in the impression that you can not hear a sound if the device is in sleep mode. but perhaps i am mistaken? Autoflight generates a sound without waking up the device?
Thanks it's great
Always wanted an app like that for my WM6.1
nice piece of work
pretty nice work.. however, it would be good if following things can be revised?
--> can you plz add in a feature "number to repeat". FYI, i'm now using Throttle Launcher. So, i can't trigger off the reminder alarm. it would be good if it stops automatically after x-times (which can be set by user),
OR..
whenever i read/aware the missed call/msg, this reminder program would detect that missed call / unread msg = 0, thus OFF the reminder automatically. (This would be preferable)
Many Thanks....
add in some extra information..

regarding above statements, perhaps i shall further clarify....
a) add in "number to repeat"..
example: reminder will give notification every interval of 2mins for 5 times
I'm now using Touch (with Throttle Launcher interface, 240x320), perhaps this reminder program need user to off it manually? yet, it's too bad that i can't trigger this button... so, i suggest 2nd option which stated above....
Thanks...

if the user dismisses the missed calls and marks the unread sms as read while the program is running ,the program should know when not to give the reminder anymore.
however problems can arise if the program is not running and the user dismisses the missed call/unread sms notifications. the set reminder will then not be cancelled. this should be fixed in the next version. the next version will also have an option to clear generated reminders.
Hi,
Thanks for your prompt reply. Personally I think this program has great potential. Just wish it could be revised to a better software.
I tried it yesterday. It rings to notify me that i have missed calls / unread msg.. somehow, I went to read the msg and checked the missed call.. yet, the reminder won't stop.. (and i din see any button to be pressed to stop, if there is any? )..
plz advise?
Thanks
Guess it's time to throw my hat in the ring. I've tried a bunch of screen blockers and for one reason or another wasn't happy with them. CurtainCall was developed for me and a couple friends to use on our phones for work.
CurtainCall is not Open Source software. I am granting a license to XDA users to use CurtainCall. CC requires the .Net Framework version 3.5 and Windows Mobile 6 Pro or greater. It has been tested on my Sprint Touch Pro with the original rom and Sprint's updated ROM. It has also been tested on the AT&T Fuze Original ROM.
Here's a list of features in this beta version:
Battery Meter
Tasks current / overdue
Scratch Caller Picture to answer and ignore incoming calls (Scratch down 50% to answer scratch horizontal 50% to send to voicemail.
Next calendar appointment
Caller Id info with name and number
Caller Picture
Unlock when Keyboard is slide out (Display orientation changes).
Unlock on charge or computer connection
Close phone Dialer when hang up occurs
Shell notifications audible alert works
Unlock when receiving call while syncing
Change screen BackColor when screen or caller picture is pressed while unlocking.
Display 12 hour clock with date
Display Service Location (Home Roam NoSVC, Search)
Display active signal strength
Display current speaker volume setting
Battery Friendly (No Timers to reduce battery life)
Exclude some applications from CC locking the screen (Safe Programs) Don't put in activesync or cc will never lock screen.
Do Not Distrub feature
Initially lock when in call
Configurable options Double Click X to close and hit setup button
Remain unlocked when call recv'd and keyboard is out
Displays status of current data connection eg EVDO 1X EDGDE etc.
Here's some basics on 1) unlocking CurtainCall so you can use your device and 2) Answering or ignoring calls from the CurtainCall Screen. 3) Exit application and Setup Screen
1) Press down on the Clock until the background turns yellow. The clock will change to 45%. Now slide your finger down the screen until the 45% (which is where the clock now used to be) goes to 0% and release the screen. The screen will be unlocked.
2) Same concept as #1. To answer the call press the caller picture on the top portion of the picture until the background turns yellow. Slide your finger to the end of the picture and CC will answer the call. To ignore the call press the left side of the callers picture and slide to the right. The caller will be sent to voicemail.
3) The X in the upper right corner is used to Exit the application, get to the setup screens, and enter a temporary Do Not Distrub mode.
The cab file that is attached will cause CC to start when your system starts and puts an icon under programs.
Let me know what you think and if your having issues. I'll do my best to fix them, but you should know I have a full time position in IT and am a family man. So, there are some limitations on my time.
CurtainCall Update Information
Version 0.7.9
Some graphics fixes and fix for unknown caller for name when it's id'd after the fact.
Version 0.7.10
Add display of Vibrate and Silent modes. Also did testing for Windows Mobile 5 users. Hit some platform limitations. CurtainCall will NOT run on WINMO 5.
Version 0.7.11
Add config option to allow setup of Auto Start with WinMo.
Add indicator to show Do Not Distrub is active. DND is permanently set in setup
Clean up some small issues with adding safe programs
Add a temporary Do Not Distrub button in the same screen as the Exit and Setup Buttons. Additionally allow for a DND profile of Silent and Vibrate. This is set in the setup screen. With DND on the phone will only ring once and then send the caller to voicemail. For me it's much better than meeting mode in WINMO.
Version 0.8.0
Changes to help users without slide out keyboard.
Changes For Touch Pro2 Tested on stock Sprint ROM with WM6.1
i'd be happy to try it out.. but please post some screenshots. thank you
Here is the screenshot

Is it working on i780...?
Please replay if anyone tried.
-Pratap
Is it possible to show on what state the phone is, like muted or vibrating or normal? Maybe put in a small icon at the top. And maybe a functionallity to choose wheter you want to show a big caller picture or a small one.. I prefer a small one Or just make it possible to use the phone's dialer. When you misses a call the photo stays in the screen. I guess it would be better if you just go back to the mainscreen where you can see you missed a call. Now you don't see the other counters (sms, mail).
Can you tell me where the 'do not disturb' function is for?
Further is looks really great
RAHO thanks for trying CC. Muted can be seen by the nuber of )))) after the speaker. If there aren't any it's muted. I don't have anything for Vibrate yet.
As to making the picture smaller, One of the uses of the caller's picture is for answering the call. If you press the picture and swipe down 50% the call will be anwsered, or if you swipe horizontally it will send the caller to voice mail (Ignore). If I make the picture to small it will be easier to miss anwser which is one of the main reasons for curtaincall.
The purpose of do not distrub is to ignore all calls. You will hear one ring and then the call is sent to voice mail. That is set in the setup screen. \
By the way there is no need to close and re-open cc when you make changes.
Hope this helps, and I'm glad your liking it.
RAHO, I forgot to mention something. I left the picture up so I would see my last called. You can clear the picture by swiping it just like you were going to answer the call or for that fact ignore it as described in my last post.
Not working on HTC Universal WM5!
it works ok on an elf (6.5).
Simply brilliant.
Font is aliased on my qvga screen.
Icons are a little bit aliased on qvga.
I don't particularly like the chosen icons but hey... ;-)
Works quite well on my TP2 although it strangely flickers between the scratch to answer and slide to answer screens on a call. Also the last icon on the right is corrupt around the bottom edge.
Looking forward to updates.
Thanks!
Here's a couple of screen shots that shows a bit more of the functionality/
Answering a couple of posts...
First, Most developers suffer in artistic ability. I'm one of those. If you have some cool royalty free art I can use that is appealing I'm up for making some changes there. I started messing around a bit with gimp attempting to change things a few days ago, but my time to do that is pretty limited.
As to the WM 5 issue, CC was developed for WM 6.1 or higher. I'm open to looking at issue though. Exactly what problems are you having? It maybe that the object model is missing some pieces if that's the case I'll be forced to say that it's wm 6.1 or greater. Just let me know what's happening and I'll give it a shot.
I think it's very good for a first release! Just a few bugs so far like I said...
As to the graphics, maybe you could make it skinable for the graphics gurus?
It looks like I've put this in the wrong place. I'm sorry for doing that. I'm just now getting the lay of the land here at XDA.
Could some on move this thread over to Windows Applications and Games.
Thanks in advance.
I've had to uninstall this
It keeps fighting with the stock HTC slide to answer regardless of the settings.
Pity
Problem with caller id
I really like the approach of this app. My problem is that when I receive an incoming call, I get a text popup window with "Answer" and "Dismiss" options which cover the Curtaincall picture ID. Consequently, I cannot swipe the picture to answer or send to voicemail. Any thoughts on this one? I need the picture id to always be topmost on the screen. I am running Ultralite 6.5 ROM with SPB Mobile Shell.
thx in advance

Forgot to mention that I running this on an HTC Diamond Touch
@ IT_Dude: Thanks for your reply! It sure helps
I hope you can build in an vibrate-icon sometimes.
Can you give me abetter discripiton of what's happening. I kknow during the inital development phase I had trouble with during the first ring or two the dialer screen would fight to be on top. I got past that though. Are you running win 6.1 or the new 6.5?
MJ100, I'm not sure what text window you are getting. I know one of my alpha testers had some similar issues because he was trying to use slide to unlock in conjunction with CurtainCall. I had another alpha tester add activesync as a safe program which caused him a lot of grief. Try turning off (Deactivating) all your safe programs. If that's npt it can you send me a screen shot so I know a little more what I'm dealing with.

I already belong to a team, The Darkforest Group, and I work on the sidelines for ICX, more of a backup developer.
I don't really have much time, as I am sixteen and still at school
I will be working on this as and when I can, I have a full-time job and work 11 hours a day so progress may be slow
Saturday i will be trying to compile cm9 with cm_split 3g.
Nickholtus is already helping by working on a kernel for me so things are looking good
Any other help will be much appreciated

Keiran do you have time to help me with this?
I respect your work and would love to have you help me with this.
Merging miui into cm9 is no easy task and this is my first ever project.
I have only read up a small part on these matters and at 38 years old its harder to learn.
I am going to stick to this project until it is perfect as I am sure this will keep alot of play owners happy.
I will be working hard over the weekend to try and get a build to boot... wish me luck!
Sent from my R800i using XDA App
Backed up, ready for testing, flashtools ready just in case
test 1 already!!
i'll give this ago with the CM9 and ICX kernels later after work. and post my results
Did you compile CM9 with VMSPLIT_3G?
I would do it myself but I am unable to sync CM repo for CM9.
Kernel is easy, but if you dont compile CM9 with VMSPLIT_3G then it will not boot.

sorry for delay was out last night on mates stag so... i get an Error 6 on both kernels :/
Error 6 is the update.zip not recognizing a valid flash target.
You'll have to edit some line in there for that, and try again.
Help me out with which one, guys ^^..
If you go into the script-updater and replace \r\n with \n it will then install (thanks restless123)
Still need a kernel though, Im not quite sure, but now that miui is open source experienced devs could build a complete miui v4 for the play without having to port it..

It would be really cool if there was a way to do these things with apps or any other way. I just collected a few which I think of as most important.
Keep screen awake in chosen apps (eg fitness, maps, notes, ...)
End calls using the watch and change speaker mode while in a call
Lock mode for showering
Disable the wake up gesture (wrist movement) without disabling notifications
Choose not to go back to home screen when the display times out
Remove notifications from the watch face so you can finally use analogue ones (the notifications will only show when you swipe down or get a new notification from certain apps --> eg sms will still show when you get one, but weather etc won't)
I linked the threads / posts of the people who posted the idea first. This thread is just to collect them
Edit:
Ok so number 1 - 3 can be done with:
N1 - Swipify
N2 - Dialer for Android Wear or Speed Dial for Android Wear
N3 - Wear My Launcher
Hi, I'm new to this and really hope that I'm in the right forum.
(I've returned to the top of this post as I am way further down typing it I realise how long it is, so please accept my sincere apologies)
I may just be being a little paranoid, but I just have a feeling that something is not quite right where my phone is concerned and I am worried that it may have been compromised, i.e. it has had some sort of spy app/ spyware installed on it / it is being tracked / tapped.
First started to notice new background noises when making calls and specific other device(s) around me (not mine) making notification (email) sounds immediately as I was sending texts (this at what would normally be considered unusual hours early in the morning) and some apps and services 'running' on my device that I've not really noticed before and when 'Googled' throw up some worrying possibilities. One of the most noticeable was an app that began running only when I receive an text message (see below in running apps, first one listed).
Like I say, it may be nothing, but I just have something in the back of my mind, especially as I have left my phone at of times in recent months around people that, well, may have motive to do such a thing.
I've read that if some sort of spy app/ spyware has been installed by someone with access to my phone then it can be very difficult to identify, but not impossible?
Perhaps now I should make a list of some of the apps and associated processes that are running on my device in the hope that you can either confirm suspicion, or ease my concerns.
Oh, my device btw is a Samsung Galaxy Note 3 (SM-N9005) - Android Version 4.4.2 - Kernel Version 3.4.0- 1955971
RUNNING
1. Exchange Services
This app only starts running whenever I have received my first text after starting up my device. It states '1 process and 1 service' and when accessing it from running apps under Services is shows SmsRelayService and under Processes it shows Exchange Services with com.android.exchange directly below that.
This concerns me because of what I have read on Google, in that it could well be that my texts are being forwarded (relayed) to an email account. Particularly as it would appear that 'Exchange Services' relates to Hotmail/ Outlook and I don't use either of these.
2. S Voice
This app shows as running constantly and starts whenever the device is started up. What concerns me about this is what is listed under Services which is LMTTService. The reason this concerns me is because if you Google LMTTService or LMTT Service it throws up a number of results, most/ all of which direct in one way or another to some sort of Spy App/ Spyware site!
3. Remote Controls
This again is running constantly and the Services listed is XDMService and Processes showing Remote controls with com.fmm.dm directly below that.
4. Software Update
Again running constantly with the same Services as 3 listed XDMService and Processes showing Software update with com.wssyncmldm directly below that.
5. Google App
This may one that is completely expected, but under Services it has BroadcastListenerService and I don't use the Google app, I use the Internet app.
6. Google Services
This again may be completely expected, but I'm just not sure if I have ever noticed it before. It also shows an Android as its icon and no Google icon, but then I guess that's no big deal right? The Services listed are as follows on this one (note that the whole name is not always visible, probably due to its length:
- DeviceConnectionService..
- GoogleLocationManager..
- GoogleLocationService
- DispatchingService
- GmsCoreStatsService
- PendingIntentCallbackSe..
The Processes show tow which are Google Services with com.google.android.gms.persistent below it and Google Services with com.google.processes.gapps
7. S Finder
I'm not sure what this is at all? But under Services it has LocationTagReadyService and TagReadyService with Processes listed as S Finder with com.samsung.android.app.galaxyfinder:tagService
8. Samsung Link
This shows under Services just one which is Samsung Link Service and under Processes it shows Samsung Link with com.sec.pcw below that.
Well at the minute I guess that's enough for the RUNNING apps and maybe I can list a few (or more) that appear under ALL apps, but before that may I mention that when I started my device yesterday an immediate checked the RUNNING apps something briefly popped up which was Device Test with DummyFTClient any thoughts?
ALL apps
I will just add a list and if then there are any that immediately stand out (should I get any views and replies on this post) then I can provide more info on Permissions, as this is always a concern!
- Assistant Menu
Has the Settings icon
- Automation Test
Android icon
- AutoPreconfig
Document with a Cog icon
- CapabilityManagerService
White board with Android/ Android icon on it
- com.android.providers.partnerbo..
Android icon and can't see full name of app
- com.android.sharedstorageback..
Android icon
- com.sec.android.app.FlashBarSe..
Android icon and can't see full name of app. This concerns me because of what I have read about some Spy apps installing as Flash something or other, but at the same time I believe this could relate to the Multi-Window / Multi-App function
- com.sec.android.app.minimode.r..
Android icon and can't see full name of app
- com.sec.bcservice
Android icon
- com.sec.phone
Android icon

Android icon and a very bizarre one. golfviewer ????? I have nothing at all relating to golf on my phone
- CSC
Document with a Cog icon
- DeviceKeystring
Android icon
- DropboxOOBE
I'm not sure I even noticed this one yesterday and although it has a Dropbox icon, it's not exactly the same as the standard Dropbox icon
- DSMForwarding
Icon is a blue screen I guess with a red arrow
- DSMLawmo
Icon is a blue screen like above but with a padlock
- Enterprise Sim Pin Service
- Enterprise SysScope Service
- Enterprise VPN Services
- Enterprise Permissions
All have the Android icon
- Exchange Services
Envelope with gold letter in it and @ icon on that
- FlashAnnotateSvc
Android icon and having read articles about anything relating to Flash where Android is concerned I get a little suspicious.
- Fused Location
Android icon

Some sort of Android icon holding a white HW banner
- INDIServiceManager

All Android icon
- LocalFOTA
Android icon
- LogsProvider
Android icon
- Manager accessibility
Settings cog icon
- MDMApp
Android icon
- Mobile tracker
Document with a Cog icon and I know that there is the whole tracking option through Samsung, but surely it would have some sort of Samsung icon if it were that
- MyScript Resource Manager
Android icon
- New enrolment
Blue circle with a device and arrow icon
- OM Customize
Android icon
- OMACP
Message bubble with
- PacProcessor

- Perso
Document with a Cog icon
- PopupuiReceiver
White board with Android/ Android icon on it
- Preconfig
Document with a Cog icon
- ProxyHandler
Android icon
- Remote Controls
- Remote Controls
- Remote Controls
Adding this 3 times is not a mistake, I have it 3 times on the list. First 2 have the Android icon and the 3rd the White board with Android/ Android icon on it
- RilNotifier
Document with Cog icon
- RootPA
Android icon
- Samsung Camera Filter
Sits with all other Samsung apps but has an Android icon unlike all the others that have various Samsung icons
- Security policy updates
Android icon. I've seen some results on Google about this and the fact that it's been a concern for some users?
- Service Mode
Android icon
- Service Mode RIL
Document with Cog icon
- Settings
- Settings
Again, adding this twice is not a mistake as I have 2. They both have the Settings cog icon, but the first is slightly different in that it is not as bright in colour, i.e. it's faded a little
- Settings Storage
Grey cog icon and one that again I don't think I noticed yesterday
- SettingSearchProvider
Android icon
- ShareShotService
- Shell
- Silent Logging
All have the Android icon
- Software update
- Software update
Again no mistake it's listed twice as there are 2 present and both have different icons. Similar in that they are both green squares with a device and an arrow on each, but different in size, shape of device and arrow on the square background
- SyncmIDS
Server looking icon
- Tags
A Tag icon with blue waves on it
- USB settings
- USBSettings
Again two showing and different names in that they are exactly displayed above and both with the Android icon
- wssynccmlnps
Android icon
Ok, that's it and again I AM VERY SORRY for the length of this post, but I am just very concerned by some of the behaviours my phone is demonstrating and I hope that you (someone or some of you) can appreciate that.
Many, many thanks in advance for any help!
Hi, do you have any ideas what went wrong with your phone now? I have the same feeling (something ist wrong, be afraid to be spyed and battery runs out very quickly nowadays). I have the same RUNNING like you wrote and com.androidstorageback.... is new on my device...
Hope you´ll answer, if you get some news!
LG
I am having the same issues with my fone. I have almost no batt life now and some of the programs that was listed above I've found on my fone... can anyone help me find out what these programs are, who is behind them, and how to get rid of them and protect my phones privacy from this happening again? Please help. Thank u. I am on a galaxy s4...
I've even tried doing a factory reset and starting new but same things occur. My husband has been weird and thinks I'm up to no good but I think he's got a guilty conscious so... idc to spy on him I just want to know if it's him or who is behind the programs, what the programs are and how I can protect my phone from privacy breaches again in the future. I am going to point out now I am 27 and unaware and unlawfully being monitored if I am.
Have almost the same exact apps running on my phone. These apps have RIDICULOUS lists of permissions. I mean Jesus himself would be jealous of the abilities given to these apps. This is way to complex to be some commercial spyware, gotta be law enforcement, government, or hacktivists.
Edit: gonna type in an example of these permission sets. This is from the innocuously named Bluetooth Test. There are 30 plus apps showing almost identical permission sets.

I will just add a list and if then there are any that immediately stand out (should I get any views and replies on this post) then I can provide more info on Permissions, as this is always a concern!

Ok, that's it and again I AM VERY SORRY for the length of this post, but I am just very concerned by some of the behaviours my phone is demonstrating and I hope that you (someone or some of you) can appreciate that.
Many, many thanks in advance for any help!

Hello, if there is a spy ware installed,it will have a be in a App. Unless you have root, you can exclude system apps. It has to be a App installed from outside. Then someome granted it administrator permission.....
this happened with me once, what you need to do is, reboot your device into Safe mode(check your device's forum for How To) and then go to apps(in settings) and remove all the unwanted apps. (Don't disable any system app as they don't get infected unless you have root...it's rare. You might find some apps with generic names (user installed apps...) Like Smart Booster, such apps don't usually have a UI, they run in the background, hidden. Remove all such apps.
This should solve your problem(if there is a spy ware...)
Me reading the app list doesn't make sense cause I don't know which apps are visible in you app drawer and which apps are hidden. You need to reboot to Safe mode and remove unwanted stuff...
Hope this helps you
Plz help! Ur not paranoid. What did u find out? Any suggestions?I have all those com.secmobile things too. i recieved a WAP SI push notification from a known hacker who lives 2 doors down. The message says
//LL:1563:1473279512830:YPB:XdjXgu0u8KCCaChbA9QMxVzILr8=:480221282:40VM61NC60NMH4PKFQ4OJZGN53X4DLNY
It was from 8737 google it but add 8737 spy. Its a company that sells tracking spying stuff. It cannot b removed. From all i heard. Ive filed police reports, ic3.gov,hell i e en went to fbi building!
He claims hes been recording me, spying on me, accessing my emails,texts,camera,passwords,messages for 8 months. . I know its true bcuz my accts gwt deleted, my passwords rwset daily. Ive bought 3 new samsungs. He moved out then demanded $2500.00 or my car or hed ruin my life by sending stuff to all my contacts. I heard from neighbors they get pics of me and transcribed conversations
Did anybody figure out what this is? I have the same thing going on with my phone and I'm freaking out! Please help!!
I've only seen one answer so far guys and he said the hackers would use a app. The part that caught my eye was he said the good apps u want to keep WOULD NOT have UI in front of them? If I read that right my heart just sunk cuz i've seen that somewhere on my phone. I've got a spider Web of a mess with all the file paths I have.
However - Guys, I understand that relentless nagging feeling u KNOW somethings up... (I did last weekend and finally caught it, just a stupid Facebook spam hack but it felt good know I wasn't crazy. But just keep remember to breathe - most of u soundsounded like u had chewed all ur nails off worrying. My mom worries about big brother and hackers and I just remind her, she's not that interesting. They have a middle class income and are normal. If someone is gonna hack they'd either go for super easy or super worth it right? U guys sound pretty security conscious so good luck!
Turn OFF.

What if you cant remove the apps... there is no option to uninstall, just disable or force stop?
