I've a 5 digit pin too. Enter any 4 digit number to get past the first login. Close the app then open MeteorLogin.txt and edit the pin and save there. It logs in automatically each time after that.

One that will work with O2, Vodafone and Meteor here:

Written in Perl, will run on Windows, Linux, Solaris, etc.

I wrote one in Java in the past for all the sites, but it needs to be updated, if I get some time I'll dig it up and update it.

Tried it on Vodafone. Doesn't work and you have to enter your login details each time you open it.
The OPs one looks nice and the syncronize phonebook and message counter features are handy.

I will have a go at making this work for O2. Since O2 changed their site, I dont think O2 SMS will work anymore unless someone has updated it.

Oops yes sorry guys I didn't realise a PIN could be anything other than 4 digits. I have fixed this now. Thanks for the info!

Works great in Linux from the command line. Haven't tried the windows version.

Rogue-entity,
The o2sms would have some code you can re-use. He has already done it for o2 and the source is available. He does have a GUI but it is very (too) simple.

Excellent programme OP.

If you don't like my exe you can build your own.

Download again should work this time. The login text file was missing with your download (jar file).

Can you tell me:
1. What OS are you running?
2. What is the name of the file you are running?
3. What other files are in this directory?

1. 2000 Pro
2,3. Attached is a screen with the file im running highlighted

Yes that looks ok. Strange. If you open the file MeteorLogin.txt and type in your phone number and password like so then it should work when you re-launch:

0871234567,1234

Nope didnt work lol, dont worry probably just Java acting up

we've had this conversation many times on this board. only certain customers have 30 messages, the people who have free texts for life for example. if you don't have the free texts and don't mind switching to the new leisure time plus or anytime plus tariffs then ring them up and you'll get 300


nice app by the way. thanks

On a note about this, I have the free txts for life.. and about a months ago i noticed i have have 300 free txts a month? did they change this for all?

Great little app, thanks for sharing it. Although I can't seem to change my PIN on the Meteor web site. It appears to be stuck on the old one. When I change it I can't log in with the new one only the old one. This could be problem with the Meteor site, but I did change it successfully before....

misho

is there any chance to add an option to minimize to system tray?

You can manually update the pin the program uses by opening MeteorLogin.txt file.

Yeah they gave folks on free texts for life the 300 webtexts too, well I got em now anyways, very handy.

Lenny

I thoguth they did, taut it was very unfair people having free txts till 2008 and 300 web txts

Oracle

Thanks fbradyirl, for letting me know about the text file. The problem was the Meteor site; it must take a while to update the password, my new password, changed on My Meteor works now.

Looks like something may have changed on the meteor website. I got a connection error from the app this morning and when I went to log into the Meteor website, firefox asked me accept a new certificate for the mymeteor site.

Anyone else seeing this?
