We have just released JSMS 4.1.4
Keith has put a lot of work into this one and has completely re-written the communication mechanisms used in JSMS, so hopefully it should feel faster and more reliable. However, some operator sites such as O2, are very unreliable these days so if you have a problem sending, check your operator site to see if it is down.
Here’s what’s new in this release:
- Reimplemented all HTTP communications code to achieve greater reliability.
- Added parsing of the customer’s user name from Vodafone accounts.
- Fixed import of O2 contacts which have apostrophes in the contact name.
- GMail import now works better when a contact has multiple phone numbers.
- Removed Meteor statusbar tooltip as it was showing garbage.
- Added buttons to some Help dialogs to open webpages.
- Disabled automatic update for PowerMac users due to phasing out of older Java version.
Hi guys – can’t connect to vodafone since the upgrade, is this a known issue?
Yes, there seems to be a problem with the new version for anyone using a proxy. We are currently looking at a fix for this issue.
For now we suggest that you revert back to an older version of JSMS. You’ll find the installer here:
https://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=196351&package_id=231995&release_id=654901
I think I have the HTTP proxy issue sorted. The fix has just been release to our team of volunteer beta testers and will be available for GA release as soon as we’re happy that the build is stable.
Mail us at jsmsirl@gmail.com if you access to the beta release.

Keith.
I’m having lots of trouble with 4.1.2 and meteor. It keeps failing about 95% of the time.
I can’t seem to find the 4.1.4 update download location either. Has it been removed?
We took down version 4.1.4 as it was not working for people using HTTP proxies. I have since resolved that problem and the fix is now in beta test. Mail me at jsmsirl@gmail.com, letting me know the operating system you are using and I’ll sort you out with a pre-release copy of the upcoming release. That should get you up and running again.
Regards,
Keith.
