Whenever I back up my 3rd party apps. I notice one called SMS Wakeup. I guess it is part of the OS because I never downloaded it. Anyone know what it is for? Never had it on my Storm1. Never seen it in ShrinkOS as an option to get rid of it or in Apploader.
it has been in the 5.0 os for a while when I had my 9530 I saw the .cod a few time.. no idea what it does thoughQuote:

I seem to see this on anyprogram that keeps the backlight on so I think it may be related, but I could be totally wrong lol
Hey I've always wondered that! Whenever I do a batt pull that one asks for permission, I've always said deny, should I be allowing it?!

All I have found so far is that it is a part of VZnav, and it pretty much takes messages from VZW that are intended for VZnav and automatically interprets them without bothering you to manually do it. Its a "push" program.
I would its the same on telus. I will keep allowing it now. Thanks.

No prob. please let us know if there are any drawbacks that you notice. this way we can be more informative.
SMS Wake Up allows Veriz0n to "see" what GPS you are using before allowing the VZW Nav Application to work. Draw your own conclusions as to why you might want to disable.
Where did you get that info? there was a previous poster here who was talking about it being for messages to help VZnav work properly is right.Quote:
