I have been waiting for something that did this for awhile now, and they way it is implemented here is really smooth. A lot of the people i text are on a different carrier so staying in the 160 limit to keep it as one message it nice.
Thanks to Tom from Israel who develop that little helper!
Is anything known about the 3.1 jailbreak for windows?
Very nice tweak! Is there a tweak for smilies in txt messages, too?
Will this work in Google Voice App?
Great find.
Hi friends, can you give the the url of the source? I have install bigboss-iplanet source but I can not find this SMS Helper….. Could you post the protocols? Thanks before.
whats the app called to get the weather in the status bar?
it’s called “WEATHER ICON” in Cydia. Then you have to go to your SETTINGS TAB and find it there so you can turn it on, or have it set up the way you want. If you want the degrees and tiny icons also install KLEAR WEATHER ICON.
Enjoy
I also cannot find SMS Helper in Cydia. Please tell us how we can find it. Thanks.
Just do a search in cydia
I also couldnt find it in Cydia.
It’s been updated to version 0.2
It now shows 160/1 then when you start typing, it will count down to 130/1 (meaning you have 130 characters left, and you’re on your 1st message)
If you go past 160, it will then turn to 160/2 meaning you’ve got 160 characters, and you’re on your 2nd message.
This the correct way, and it is now awesome!
This is not true. It is not possible to send 320 chars in two messages because the message will start with an user data header (UDH) containing segmentation information.
Ohhhhhh yes! I was looking for something exactly like this, perfect! this is why I love that I have my Iphone jailbroken!
this is great I’ve been looking for such a long time..
thank you
Sms helper is buggy for brazilian chars like é,ç,á,ã, etc. The counter goes crazy every time non conventional chars are used.
No it’s not, non english chars make the msg size go from 160 to 70, read about unicode encoding in sms
Great app. I beleive this app show how many SMS have been send/received. Can you tell me where this information is store/display?
Thanks
there is a bug if we touch text already typed counter changes and doesnt complete the count…
Great app!
Maybe you could implement an “CallHelper” to count minutes. That would be great too!
thanks so much! very good app! it is soooo helpful! keep it up!!
great work done……excellent job……..thanks
When is the sms helper for 4.0 x OS going to come out. I cant wait..please help! it will be a life saver..!!
Go to Settings –> Messages –> Turn on Character Count
However, note that it only shows the character count after 25 characters or 2+ lines of text….I think.
