GTalksSMS disconnects/reconnects when receiving MMS

[GoogleCodeExporter]

I think it's due to the MMS protocol, I've notice on my phone that 3G (Data 
connection) is lost each time that I receive a MMS.

Moreover GTalkSMS is mapped on data connection service state, so each time 
network is lost, the app disconnects, and reconnects when connection is back.

I'll see for MMS notification.

That's weird, since the 3G icon should actually go on when sending/receiving an 
MMS (I'm connected via wifi when using GtalkSMS.)

Thinking about it; maybe that's the problem.  Since 3G comes up to receive an 
MMS, it's interrupting the wifi connection that GTalkSMS is using to connect to 
jabber.  I don't remember it happening in earlier versions, but I can't be sure.

Indeed GTalkSMS reconnect on each 3G/Wifi swap

That seems to be normal as far as I can see, GSM cannot do both data and voice 
transform simultaneously.

It's by design that android disconnects the data connection if there is an 
incoming/outgoing MMS. Nothing we could do here. Also the new GTalkSMS release 
will save the connection state and restore it on reconnect, so no big harm done.

XEP-0198 would be the white knight here, but it will take some time until it 
arrives in smack.

Hi Florian,

From what document can I check more detail about "incoming/outgoing MMS causes 
disconnection" ?
I'm interesting in it.

Thank you very much!
