I have searched back on some older discussion posts regarding the Reminders function, but didn't quite see a solution to my issue. Our project is based on an academic (University of Alberta's MARS Lab) and community agency partnership that hopes to improve social support and information access for local sex trade workers here in our city. Community partners each have their own SMS message that we want to run on a rotating schedule. We have it all set up so that the reminder is sent to Test…See More
Tim Barlott replied to Mathias Lin's discussion FrontlineSMS for Android"Thanks Mathias, Laura and Jesse,
I appreciate all of your feedback! Sorry for the tardy response...
Our projects are not in a position to adopt any of these smartphone-based options at the present, but may be useful as the projects become more…"

Tim Barlott posted a blog postUsing FrontlineSMS to address the needs of people with disabilities and their families in Colombia
I want to take a moment to share about a collaborative, community-based research project between the University of Alberta (Edmonton, Canada), the University of Rosario (Bogota, Colombia) and the community of El Codito in northern Bogota. El Codito is a mountainside community located on the perimeter of Bogota, characterized by low socio-economic status, limited access to municipal services such as electricity and sewage, and high crime rates. People in El Codito, especially people with…See More
Tim Barlott commented on Tim Barlott's blog post Sierra Compass 885 versus Huawei E-series"Hi Laura,
Thanks for the response!

Thank…"
Laura Walker Hudson commented on Tim Barlott's blog post Sierra Compass 885 versus Huawei E-series"Hi Tim
Thanks for this feedback! Very helpful.
Surprised to hear you struggled with the e-series modem. Which driver software were you running, out of interest? You could try it with Mobile Partner - we'd expect you to need to start the…"

Hello FrontlineSMS community.This is a short post to share my experiences with two GSM modems, the Sierra Compass 885 and the Huawei E-series.These are the only two dongles that I have used with FrontlineSMS and had a very different experience with each of them. Sierra Compass 885Once the drivers and 3G watcher were installed, this modem works without a hiccup. It was not necessary to have the 3G watcher open in order to connect to the mobile network in FrontlineSMS. The team that I am working…See More

Hi there, I am new to this community and have been using FrontlineSMS for about 8 months. My use has only been within very controlled trial environments, but ultimately hope to implement a project in Colombia starting in August. Our project is hoping to address the isolation experienced by people with disabilities and their families in an under-resourced community of the perimeter of Bogota. The goal is to improve health information access and reduce social isolation for this population. I know…See More
