How to read SMS and Call logs of a Firefox OS phone? - sms

For SMS, I have pulled the sqlite file and put it under the corresponding directory of the simulator on PC, but it didn't read.
Is it because Mozilla hasn't provided the function of SMS on the simulator?
What if I build the emulator myself, can it read the sms.sqlite I got from the phone? Or if the only way to read the sms is to decompress the code?
As for call logs, I have no idea where it is stored, is it mingled in the activity.sqlite?
I'm kind of lost in the Firefox OS, thanks for your help!

Powerful and dangerous APIs are not available to third-party apps.
Only internal apps can access the WebSMS API and Web Telephony API on firefox-os, because they are intended for system-level apps and default apps created by Mozilla/operators/OEMs.
Check the Permissions Table for Internal (Certified) Apps (MDN).

I'm developing an app to fetch SMS and other data from Firefox OS device. You can see the source code here.

Can't use AWS on watchOS?

I need to develop an application for Watch OS, which will be download the chosen files from amazon web services. But for that I need aws sdk for watch. I haven't found any on the web. Is it possible to modify the AWS SDK for iOS so it can be used for Watch?
Applications on the Apple Watch do need the companion application on the paired iPhone in order to perform more sophisticated tasks as well as to offload communication with backends such as AWS. With this SDK you can update application context information as well as send messages back and forth and transfer larger files between the app and the watch,.
Apple provides an SDK, called WatchConnectivity, to handle communication between the two devices (see WatchConnectivity).

Is there any way to check if the app is running on a desktop, and use these API's in that case?

read sms data of an iphone in a mac app when connected

I need to develop a mac app that reads and shows all the text messages that iPhone has. I know about the privacy issues and all and have also tried to read the sms.db file using sqlite_open command; it gave me SQLITE_AUTH error.
Now my question is How did the PhoneView people did it?
Check out these urls:

http://www.wondershare.com/data-recovery/iphone-data-recovery.html
Although both of the apps are not on Mac App Store, so I am assuming Apple might have rejected it. But even then I would like to know how these people did it.
They probably used libimobiledevice library http://www.libimobiledevice.org/

Accessing iOS filesystem for Mac

I was trying out the mac app DiskAid and found it does everything that I need to be able to do in the app I am writing. DiskAid appears to have complete access to the filesystem on my iPad. This is not limited to the shared files by the applications on the iPad - not by a long shot. DiskAid sees all the files for every app on the device (sharer or otherwise). It is also not limited to files in the Documents directory for each app. It sees all files down to root level.
I was also amazed when I discovered that iTunes doesn't even have to be running for all of this to work. Also I don't recall having to authenticate in any way (apple ID or anything like that) I just plug in the device via usb and away she goes.
I've been searching for days now and have not found anything that even hints that this is even possible. Yet we know it is.
Does anyone have any idea how they are pulling this off. By the way my device is not jailbroken.
Any help with this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
There is info DigiDNA blog that what they use is Apple Mobile Device Service library, which they say function as driver to Apple device. A google search to the library brought me to the Iphone Wiki site about reverse engineered C header files needed to link to the library. Hope it will be useful.

Is there a Bonjour SDK for Windows?

I want to know how to implement bonjour on windows, so that i can set up server on windows and access files in windows(server) using bonjour service from my iphone(client).
Can anyone tell me whether we have any java api for windows or any bonjour sdk for windows?
Thanks in advance..
Have a look at Apple's bonjour SDK page. They provide an SDK for Windows there. I think it's written in C.
This page describes how to develop for Bonjour for Windows. It also gives a link to the download page for the Windows API, including headers and libraries for C and Java.
http://support.apple.com/downloads/Bonjour_for_Windows
Note that Bonjour is only for notifying other devices that a service is present on the network, it doesn't handle the actual file transfer.
There is a Java implementation called Rendezvous Proxy that broadcasts bonjour notifications, may be all you need on your server?
Web page is here: http://ileech.sf.net/RendezvousProxy/
Don't think the source is open though.
Yes there is, check the links on this page
