Iphone delivery reports

qwerty2

Does anyone know if there is a code which allows you to receive delivery reports on vodafone on the iphone? I believe if you put *R* before any message you send on O2, it sends you a delivery report, but is there such a code for Vodafone Ireland? Thanks in advance?!

If your jailbroken add the xsellize repo, they have an excellent delivery report thingy, just enabled it in message settings then

I'm not so great with tech stuff tbph! Simply have a basic iPhone 3GS bought from the Vodafone store yesterday! Can someone explain to me what jailbreaking it involves/allows you to do?

Hi Bobby
you couldn't talk me through that process by any chance. Have installed xcellize but no option in message setting is appearing.

Have a look at the first or second page on this board - that exact question is asked a couple of times.

Open Cydia. Go to manage>Xsellize>iPhone delivery and install it.

after you add the xsellize repository, (cydia.xsellize.com) you have to re-search cydia just type "delivery", you should now have iphone delivery as an option and install,
then go to settings>messages> delivery report "mines set to "flash" you have different options, thats it

yours will say Install instead of Modify, as mines already installed !

Perfect, thanks Bobby

Hi,

Thank you for replying.

I got my phone and was trying to set up the delivery reports. I am not sure what to do first. And I have no idea what all that means. Therefore any help or guidance would be really appreciated.

You can't do it as your phone is not jailbroken. You can't jailbreak it until the new jailbreak is released. Its out on the Mac and should be out for the PC soon enough.

mdb6000

Ok, Great. Thanks for your help. Where will I find that then?

Stuxnet

Diana you need a jailbroken/hacked iphone to do this ... see the top of the forum to see how to do it, its not dangerous and anybody non techie can do it

what version of iphone firmware are you on
check in settings>general>about

Captain Chaos

OP got it yesterday so it would have 3.1.3 on it. The jailbreak for that version will be out soon to use.

I got mixed up with qwerty2 and MD, didn't check user names.

Love the friendly attitude, cheers.

mdb6000

Hi Guys,

Help is really appreciated. My phone has the 3.1.3as well. So it seems Ihave to wait too. Rough guess how long that would be? Just that I am aware when I should start looking again

The jailbreak teams are waiting for apple to release the next major firmware update, shouldn't be long now, apple holding an event on Thursday, we might learn something then !

If you want deliery reports non jailbroken Iphone then just type *R* at the start of your message. You get back a text with some details on it. You will have to do this with every txt that you send.

Why not? are you using a mac or a linux OS?

Mac has ifuntastic which will install ringtones and in linux you can use audacity and gtkpod or an older version of amarok.

If you are using windows then there is no reason iringer won't install.
As for your opinion that the iphone is a toy.................well that is your opinion.

lisa_eire

i have added xsellize repo to cydia and downloaded iphone delivery but when i go into settings>messages there is no delivery report option. Have i done something wrong?

ifuntastic does cost, only $15, but it does look like a Swiss army knife for the iPhone.

I have the exact same problem. I have a iphone 2g, OS 3.1.2
The smilieys seemed to be enabled by default, which i dont want, but now cant turn off either. I will have to uninstall it i think.

qwerty2

Another quick question, is there anyway of finding out what time messages have been sent/received at? I know that you get the time if there has been a large interval between two messages, or else you can find out the time of the latest message, but I mean just in general? Thanks!

Elessar

The problem you guys are having is that the xsellize repo has an older version of iPhonedelivery that doesn't work with 3.1.3

There is a new version (0.3.5) that works fine, I just installed it.

To get it add the repo iphonedelivery.advinux.com/cydia

lisa_eire

thanks! just figured that out instructions are below for anyone else.

Check out the installation instructions…

1) Open Cydia
2) Add source : http://iphonedelivery.advinux.com/cydia
3) Install iPhoneDelivery (search it in Cydia)
4) Reboot iPhone (turn off and on)
5) Go into Settings -> Messages and activate ‘Delivery report’

Thanks guys. Worked perfectly.

Find some free wifi and do it that way if you can.

I'm in work but one of the other IT guys put Mac filtering on out wifi and I'm too lazy to go downstairs with a laptop and add in my iPhone. Point is, I shouldn't have to, o2 never limited my access.

no works for 3.x also, i had it on my 3gs, are you adding the correct repository, xsellize doesn't have it anymore, http://iphonedelivery.advinux.com/cydia
there is a bug in 4.01 tho, where you cant change the sound like you can with older apple firmwares, ive filed a bug report, there's no reason why it shouldn't work for you, unless vf have interfered somehow ??

I don't know.. any time I try to add the repo it looks like it's downloading.... get as far as 'downloading packages' but then I get the following error message-

'could not find repository- the indicated repository could not be found.... with lots of other blah blah'

would put a screen shot if I knew how to!

Worked fine for me yesterday. Have you tried it on Wifi or 3G? If you're with 3 they're blocking random stuff so could be an issue.

To take a screenshot just press your Home + Lock button together. Then you can either email the photo from your camera roll or browse to it with a USB cable and windows explorer.

I probably sound stupid but if it wont come up in search for me where else do I input it in Cydia?? Is it on home page of Cydia in "more package sources"? Thanks so much!

Got it working...thanks a mill :D:D

In case people were thinking of readding this app on iOS5 - it seems to be making the messages app crash now.
