Problem with sending & receiving SMS from PC
I have used in the past several apps to send & receive texts from my EVO using my PC. I know have the Thunderbolt and the apps won't work any more. Almost like the Thunderbolt has a built in firewall. RemoteSMS, EasySMS, are just a few I have tried. All the same result, whether I use usb or wifi. If I ping my phone I get destination host unreachable. I know I have the right IP and connectivity. Is ICMP blocked and more importantly is there a way I can let these apps work with out Root. The apps are on the Market and don't say you need root for them to work. They do all work over http or https, and you can change the ports, but it's like there is a firewall in place on the phone blocking on them. Can anyone please help????? Thanks in advance for your time. Have a good 4th of July!!!!
~I am not looking for Google Voice or other apps that use a third party broker service. Just to simply control my phone's SMS from a PC when I am in the office or at home work on a computer. Thx Again.....
