Maybe MAXS?

Maintenance is complete

We don’t block anything, but there is a small chance it’s an issue at an upstream carrier. If you contact JMP support with the details (what short code, etc) they can escalate with the carrier about this.

Yes it’s basically a protocol translator to let you plug the twilio APIs into cheogram.com see https://wiki.soprani.ca/TwilioSetup

Not sure what you mean here. This post is in the atom feed for the blog already.

If you happen know someone working at the right department of a major RCS provider or user (Google, AT&T, etc) then let me know.

Yes many customers have moved from Skype without issue :)

It’s something we’re working on, but building the necessary business relationships takes time so we don’t have any timeline yet.

Service is fully restored

We have regained access to the faulty server. restoring normal service now

A temporary solution for inbound sms has been deployed

A temporary solution for outbound sms has been deployed

Yes if you want to switch to one of the other routes please follow up with support and they can move you in the next batch

Also per the other post, note we’ve never claimed “all providers do this” when it comes to the profanity filters. All providers have some filters and those filters have all got tighter over the past year, but only one provider we’re aware of (which happens to be our default, but because of this no longer only, provider) is censoring profanity.

All hosted snikket instances use a retention period of 7 days at the moment

Any client that can do voice calls will work with JMP.chat. As a user generally it’s not useful to think about XMPP or protocol extensions, this is an implementation detail if you’re building a library or SDK. We consider Cheogram Android to be a first-party app and all Snikket branded apps to be pretty close, everything else is a third-party app with the uncertainty that entails, but basic functions like text messages and calls are standard enough to pretty much always work.

If you try the sign up process you will see what payment methods are supported. Namely: credit card, bitcoin, payment by mail, or (in Canada) interac e-transfer.

If you contact support you can get an address for ETH or XMR as well for signup, these are not fully automated yet.

does JMP accept payments in Monero (XMR)

Yes. It’s automated for top ups but not for signup yet, but you can contact support https://jmp.chat/faq#support to get an XMR address for signup purposes.

would I still be able to use the actual phone to dial 911 if necessary?

Carriers in USA are required by law to complete 911 calls even if you are not a customer and have no SIM card at all. So yes.

I saw something about an ESIM adapter that’s a regular SIM card that can have multiple ESIM profiles on it. Why can’t I just buy this directly?

You can: https://jmp.chat/esim-adapter

Your message history is stored on device in your app. So long as you don’t remove the old account from your app (even if you just disable it) the history should remain in the app.

Contact are stored both in the app and with your old service, your app may offer a way to do automated migration (for example Gajim does) or https://migrate.modernxmpp.org/ may be an option but I don’t think the latter works with chatterboxtown.

To actually switch which Jabber ID your JMP phone number is associated with you can use the bot https://jmp.chat/faq#bot and the “change jabber id” command option.
