Guest delanvital Posted February 21, 2010 Report Share Posted February 21, 2010 When I try to run the track location function - or any other- from the web site, my phone just receives an SMS... nothing happens. It is supposed to do this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest tdohappens Posted February 21, 2010 Report Share Posted February 21, 2010 you're supposed to receive a sms. if your trying to track the location of the phone you must have gps active and to be outdoors for it to work properly and accurately. try to backup your contacts/sms/call history. this should work the phone of course needs an internet connection: wifi/2g 3g/hsdpa ... anything Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest kendon Posted February 21, 2010 Report Share Posted February 21, 2010 you shouldn't be able to see the sms. you might see a short notification about a received msg, but wavesecure usually catches it and hides it immediately. can you start wavesecure by clicking on it's icon in the launcher menu?

It is supposed to do this? Hi I had exactly the same problem. Clearing the cache for WaveSecure solved it for me. Menu -> Settings -> Applications -> Manage applications -> WaveSecure Beta -> Clear data. Good luck. Edited February 21, 2010 by ksolheim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know the number, i see it in the handcent popup. faking the number isn't difficult, you just have to use a website that offers sms marketing services Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest LouiS22 Posted February 22, 2010 Report Share Posted February 22, 2010 I also got the sms (I'm using Handent, too), but the location tracking was working... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest delanvital Posted February 22, 2010 Report Share Posted February 22, 2010 Before the problems/symptoms were as follows: - When doing backup etc from the phone app it would time out "network error". - Any function from the site would send an sms, to which nothing happened on the phone, regardless of good gps connection or whether I was on wifi or HSDPA etc. - The SMS's would remain there and accumulate. I did the reset as suggested. That helped so far: - The backup etc. functions from the app works. There seems to be connection problems still, but most times it completes. - Doing location stuff from the site makes the app force close. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest kendon Posted February 22, 2010 Report Share Posted February 22, 2010 what does logcat say when it force closes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest delanvital Posted February 22, 2010 Report Share Posted February 22, 2010 (edited) what does logcat say when it force closes? Sorry, how do I see that? I tried again: it kept doing FCs, but after 4-5 of them in a row it actually presented a location on the site. So getting better! gapps and handcent sms both does FC as the same time.
