Utility to track text messages and calls

Hi all,

Thanks to all the advice and recommendations on this site, I have taken out a new mobile contract with cashback from mobile shop; hopefully I will get the cash back as promised!

Anyway I have a Song Ericsson T630 which has Java, so you can download Java games etc.

What I really want is a Java utility which can be used to count how many text messages you have sent, and also how many minutes of calls you have made.
The T630 can count call usage but does not seem to count messages.

The reason should be obvious, but I want to keep within my free minutes / messages as much as possible.

So does anyone know of a Java utility which can be downloaded?

If not, I may even try to write one myself...!

    The majority of the networks have this information available to you via a menu option on the CS number and online access to your account.
  • Thanks woby_tide - I didn't realise the phone kept your sent messages. It does, and that is a great idea.

    I am on BT150+ incidentally; they don't seem to have any "online" account management options that I can discover.
