Hi, I currently living in Japan, and I own a HTC Magic. I'm currently subscribed to Softbank and have no intention of moving to Docomo or any other carriers.
I'd like to modify the Contacts.apk to allow me to send MMS to my contact's email address instead of their phone number. The reason for this is that in Japan, the only way to send a MMS to other carriers is via email. However, the email addresses that the carriers provide requires you to send the email through their gateway, and the only way to do this is to send them as MMSes through the messaging app. Currently, I am able to send/receive emails via the messaging app by entering the email address manually. So I'm hoping to modify the Contacts app to allow me to add a new action that will open up the messaging app, convert the message to MMS automatically, and insert the contact's email address as the recipient. So I'm hoping someone can help me; 1. Add a new menu called "Send S!Mail" (that's what MMS is called here) on the long-press menu and when viewing contact details 2. Start the messaging app when the user taps on the new menu 3. Automatically tell the messaging app that you want to send an MMS and convert it accordingly (add a subject field, etc) 4. Add the contact's email address into the "To" field I don't think it's too difficult to do this, but since I've very new to Android development, I have no idea where to start. I'm currently looking through the source for the Contacts app, and figuring out what the variables mean. By the way, my Magic is on Android 1.6 (Donut) and my devkit is on a Linux (Ubuntu) platform, also compiled for 1.6 Donut and the HTC Sapphire (Magic). Thanks a lot. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
