Would it be a good idea to put a default alarm sound into SMSCON?
and there should already be one. It is installed only if there is no (user supplied) alarm.wav file already.

Dear All,
I updated smscon and smscon-editor yesterday, but I noticed that it does not accepting my SIM IMSI. Even there is no SIM changed, it smses to my master number whenever I open or close my phone's keyboard. I reset and reconfigured the settings but, problem is still there.
Is it a bug of the new update or it is not working with my SIM?
Could you please open Xterm and enter this command:
Code:
smscon -get KEYBOARDDETECT default
Code:
smscon -set KEYBOARDDETECT no
(to prevent side effects do not have smscon-editor open while operate smscon on the command line).

No problem.
Idea
Could a command be added so when triggered a screen is displayed showing owner information and contact details of where to return the device.
Going to do some research and get COM_CUSTOM to do something like this.
Would make the thief want to return the phone, if your details came on the screen; every 15 minutes or every command for example.

my older smscon doesn't behave like this.but the devlopers says your sim is recognized by the newer smscon.here i don't understand why smscon should send smses when keyboard status changed without changing the sim.
They say change the settings to "NO" for keyborad.but i want smscon to send smses when keyborad is opened or closed (by the theif NOT by me) so that i could snap thief photo by sending sms "camera"
therefore i want smscon to send sms whenever (ONLY) thief open keyborad(NOT ME). But newer smscon sends smses without changing the SIM!this is not a good function for me at least.

I reviewed the code now and yes, there was a change I'm not being aware so far:
In versions before 0.9 the keyboard detection was not armed immediately at start of smscon operation. Additionally to KEYBOARDDETECT set to "yes" there was a 2nd condition. But this 2nd condition was not related to SIM card change detection in any way. It simply and only was the receiving of a known smscon command via sms or via remote command server.
BTW, same holds for automatic battery status reports (AUTOBATREPORT setting).
IMHO neither version handles keyboard detection in a really useful way. Albeit versions before 0.9 are less bothering, indeed, it's not due to thief detection (aka SIM card change) as some may think.
Sorry for the inconvenience - we'll work on it to make it better!

Going to do some research and get COM_CUSTOM to do something like this.
Firstly I created a 25 sec .avi file from .png stills.
Using this thread, I replaced the Nokia hands for my custom message.
This method means if the device is locked and shutdown on boot up the .avi will be displayed containing contact information.
Also I have got COM_CUSTOM to display an information message with a command.
By editing /opt/smscom/smscon_script with:-
Code:
#!/bin/sh #smscon script (v0.7-2) #sixwheeledbeast - Owner Information Dialog run-standalone.sh dbus-send --type=method_call --dest=org.freedesktop.Notifications /org/freedesktop/Notifications org.freedesktop.Notifications.SystemNoteDialog string:" WARNING!!! This device contains a GPS Tracker that can be enabled remotely. Replacing the SIM Card from this device will cause it lock and become unuseable. Authorised SIM Card (IMSI) numbers will be send to a remote location and reported to the police. " uint32:0 string:"OK" wait 60 run-standalone.sh dbus-send --type=method_call --dest=org.freedesktop.Notifications /org/freedesktop/Notifications org.freedesktop.Notifications.SystemNoteDialog string:" If this device is lost/stolen please return it to the address located under the battery cover. Thank you. " uint32:0 string:"OK"
So two Hildon Dialogs appear when I send my prefix followed by "Owner".
Couple of questions...
On completion of the script SMSCON replies 4 times to the master number. Also test functions report twice to the master.
Are these suppose to happen? Seems a bit excessive when one is enough.
When I send a command from the master number to SMSCON, it warns me that the number wasn't the master number due to it not having the international prefix.
E.G. +447822xxxxxx instead of 07822xxxxxx
This happens even though the conversation app shows the message in national/local format.
I guess the only way to solve this is to store the master number in international format?

i was also depressed by those useless sms. i report them many times here in thread but could not get any solution. so revert back to old smscon 0.7.2 and now i am waiting for new update which wont send sms unnecessarily. ( in my case smscon used to send sms without changing the SIM !!! )
regarding your technical question i am not a developer so sorry
