Beta 6 should let you know whether the server is down rather than just that it couldn’t find the song.

Beta 3 adds UTF8 string encoding. For whatever reason, the iPhone doesn’t seem to handle full unicode–or maybe it’s not recognizing that NSUnicodeStringEncoding = 10. Anyway, please give this a try and let me know how much or how little this improves internationalization.

Version 0.30 is available in the VoiceNotes folder. Enjoy.

Christopher Brand was kind enough to test out 0.36 at the command line and discovered his problems arose from spaces in the file names he was sending. I added URL-escaping to version 0.37 and hope this will fix many of your problems.
If you find that the mail program just hangs, reboot your iPhone. Sometimes the mail gets into a state that it doesn’t know how to get out of.

Once again, I think I’ve nipped the email issue but please give this a try and let me know in the comments. Download the latest version here.

I just updated SendSong to version 0.25. It’s completely written from the ground up. It’s also missing one major feature, which was becoming a pain in the neck and is no longer needed due to Apple policy changes. Can you guess what it is?
If it is not obvious from the previous paragraph, I will greatly appreciate any testing and feedback you can offer.

Since recent versions compiled for 1.1.2 don’t appear to play well with 1.1.1, I’ve uploaded a few older archives to the Voice Notes folder. Let me know if they are better suited for 1.1.1 use.

1.Bluetooth Support for iPod Application in iPhone Unlikely to happen any time soon. I haven’t done any Bluetooth development. 2.Sendsong: Add Audio Editing Tool to Pick a 30 Second Clip for the Ringtone. Possible but hard. Added to the To-Do list. 3.Send and Receive Any File Using Bluetooth See #1. I haven’t done any Bluetooth development. 4.Make It Mine: Create Install Package Done 5.Voicemail: Trick Visualvoicemail Application to Launch without Subscribing to Such Service Something I’ll look into. 6.Sendsong: Add Sorting, 7.Sendsong: Add Searching On my immediate to-do list. 8.Sendsong: Add Paging to Avoid the Crash for Scrolling Lists That Are Too Long Hopefully sorting and searching will take care of this without paging. 9.Vrecord : While Recording Is in Progress, It Should Not Lock the Screen Even If Auto Lock Is Enabled There is, unfortunately, no way to override this preference without restarting SpringBoard at this time. 10.Assign a Video to a Caller Sorry, this isn’t going to happen. 11.Fix Libpurple to Allow More Than One Libpurple App to Run at a Time Much as I’d like to redesign and rewrite the entire iPhone OS, it’s unlikely that I have time to do so. This is an unlikely item. 12.Dynamic DNS Client (GUI Native or Cmdline) I would love to do this. I’m not entirely sure how though. 13.Xlaunch: Allow Changing Visibility of Multiple Items at a Time like Customize Hmmm. Maybe. Let me see if I can think of a clean way to do that. 14.Xlaunch: Allow User to Change Order of Installer and Xlaunch This is primarily a safety issue because of all the tech support, letters, overhead from people who accidentally push one or the other off screen. So…maybe. But probably not. 15.Voicenotes: Add Voice Mail Import Done. 16.Xlaunch: Segregate Visible and Invisible Apps into Separate Sections I actually tried this and decided against keeping it. It’s too hard to find apps when you have to search two different lists. I like them combined better for overall usability. I’m also working on the double-listing bug when people use a symbolic link between /Applications and /var/root/Applications. 17.Sendsong: Adding Twice an AAC Track Should Not Add Duplicate Entry into the Ringtones List. Known issue. Working on it. Don’t forget you can remove ringtones by tapping Edit. 18.Xlaunch: Crashes Due to Use with Afp Temporary Files in the Applications Folders I believe this is now fixed. Let me know. 19.Make a Utility like ‘Alert’ That Displays a Simple Table of Multi-Selectable Items Done. It’s the -T option in alert. 20.Voicenotes and TAPP: Fix the Keyboard Bug Fixed in VoiceNotes. Are there people still using Tapp? 21.Xlaunch: Allow Removing Items from Button Bar This has been in the app for forever. Just toggle the visibility of the item you want to remove. 22.Xlaunch: Doesn’t Allow Installer to Be on Button Bar Aesthetics. Safety. Hmmm. Maybe. 23.Various: Fix the Bug Where Email Is Not Properly Sent I have been unable to duplicate this error. Please give more details.

Voice Notes 0.23 is a stable release. It provides better renaming, Play/Stop capabilities, and a general export to SendFile. For this release, all files are copied into the Media/Documents folder for SendFile compatibility but I’m looking into making the various send applications work more seamlessly with each other.

I’ve been working on XLaunch, trying to get it to load much quicker. I think I accomplished this–although it takes slightly longer to go into Reorder mode than it used to. Please test and leave feedback in the comments.
