Output SMS choice of routing and SMS app integration

[GoogleCodeExporter]

When i want to make a voice call, i have the possibility of routing between the 
operator and the voip account.

Would be possible to do the same for the native text message?
Example, I am in android writing an sms, when I press send, will pop-up two 
options send using the operator or Voip account.

And we could choose this option on settiong like we do to routing the output 
calls if by gsm, 3g, grps, wifi.

This would be great because we would keep all the text messages on the android 
system, and would be more easily to follow the conversation.

Yes you're right that's something that would be really cool.

However, I don't think that's possible technically unfortunately. For reading a 
lot the android source code, unlike the contact/dialer application that send 
that it want to make an outgoing call to the telephony application, the SMS/MMS 
manage everything inside itself. As consequence it's probably not possible for 
a third party application to be plugged just after the "send" button.

What is obviously possible is to integrated with the contact app and when you 
click on "send sms" to trigger a choice popup that will allow to choose if 
you'd like to use SIP or GSM. That's worse but that's probably the only 
technically allowed solution.
On the reverse integration side (add SIP messages to SMS app), I think that's 
possible technically. And I think that it should be done at the same time than 
allowing to choose from contact "sms to" button.

So I'll investigate if possible to do what you propose (I mean directly from 
the SMS app when you press the send button after writing text); but few hope. 
If I can't I can do what I proposed above.
And another intersting way could be to ask third party apps that send SMS such 
as handcent SMS for example to provide a clean way to plugin in their apps. In 
my oponion would be the best in term of user experience cause would allow the 
feature as you propose.

Since there already is a Messages tab in csipsimple with discussion threads it 
seems to me that we almost have an SMS app inside csipsimple, don't we? Just 
two thing are missing:
1) Intercept received SMS and put it in the appropriate discussion thread.
2) Provide a way to open csipsimple with Message tab open right after the start.

For Google voice, there is an app called Google Voice SMS integration
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mdrtools.apps.gvintegration&hl
=en

It supports popup notification in the native messenger or GO SMS Pro 
(https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jb.gosms&feature=search_resul
t#?t=W10.)

It would be great if we can add this sort of integration. Maybe it should be a 
seperate app from csipsimple - 

Basically, when an SMS comes in, it would be great if we could pop it into the 
native messenger or the default messenger. When we send the SMS, we can attempt 
to send over SIP if the user asked for this as default and if not, fall back..

That would be a fantastic feature.

Any chance this will be coming soon?

Does anyone know of a 3rd party texting app that already integrates with 
CSipSimple in this way (even if the built in Android app does not do it)?

Thanks
