Hi guys, just want to start by saying thanks for this forum.. Ive learned a lot from here and absolutely love my Kaiser
anyway heres is my question, I tried searching but no dice.. Is there a hack or download I can use to send private calls straight to voice mail? maybe with a little message saying 'this phone does not accept calls from private numbers'
thanks I really appreciate all the help
ted
try youmail.com, you should be able to assign a special greeting to unknown numbers and reject the call.
Try magicall http://www.mobiion.com/magicall.html

Does anyone know if there's a way to enable sending emails via the SMS app on the 8125 (without using 36245 as the email address)? If you try to send an SMS to an email (not a phone number), the app tells you it's not allowed. Several of us would like to be able to "chat" via sms with people on BlackBerries (for example) or 2-way pagers that aren't addressable as cell phones. Most other phones allow this, but Cingular has disabled it on the 8125. It certainly works on Cing treos. Doesnt work on 8125 with orig ROM or Summiter's excellent ROM upgrade.
Anyone know if this is a registry edit, or would it require a seperate program? Anyone able and willing to post a solution?
omg i just realized it's not letting me send sms to email addresses either >< I used to use send sms to emails all the time on my treo too >< ahhhh ~ any fixes please

You can always send MMS to email addresses with just text.
I'm curious in today's age why you need to send SMS to email addresses, probably same reason MSFT didn't include it. Can you elaborate more??
There is cross operability with all carriers for text messages so you can just put in the phone number of any mobile device and it'll work.
All Blackberries that are less than 3 years old support SMS over the phone # assigned.
I understand the issue for 2-way pagers but why can't you just send a quick email?
There's a need for SMS to 2-way pagers because sending an SMS is faster to create and send...since email requires a logon and data connection. SMS is the easier way to go if you want to "chat"
Send an SMS to 121
The first thing in the body of the message should be the e-mail address with the subject immediately after, in parentheses. Then a space, then your message. Example: to send an e-mail to [email protected] with a subject of 'billing question' and the body 'Please contact me via phone to discuss my recent bill' you would send the following to 121
[email protected](billing question) Please contact me via phone to discuss my recent bill
Voila!

I won't speak for the original poster, but I'll elaborate with my reason: I'm not an email/internet/IM junkie, and I don't need all that for work, so I don't have a data plan for my 8125 in order to use the real email capability. But, I do have the 100 SMS msg pack on my plan, and I occasionally need to send a quick email to someone when I'm away from the computer and only have my phone. I used this capability on my Nokia6800 all the time, and apparently the Nokia software took care of the special formatting, since all I had to do on it was type in (or select from Contacts) the email address, the subject, and the message. When I started searching today on this issue, I hoped there was a more elegant solution, but I'm perfectly happy with the instructions for a specially formatted SMS message (as long as I can remember them when I need to send an email). I just figured out that I can copy/paste an email address from Contacts, which I suppose will be better than trying to rember one and having to type it, so that's not too bad.
If I really needed to use email a lot from my phone, I guess I'd give in and pay for a data plan, but for now, this SMS trick works just fine.
Edit: almost forgot to say thanks to Hosehead for the tip. Much obliged.

Using Cingular this did not work...
Worked just fine through Cingular for me when I tried it this afternoon. The email I received looked just like the ones I used to send with my Nokia.
Has worked fine for me since I got my 8125. I recommend making sure you have a new "3G" sim, I know some of the older ones restricted SMS e-mail.
It works for me!
I sent the first test to my work e-mail. Apparently the SPAM filters didn't like it.
Second test to personal e-mail worked like a charm. This is nice to know.
well holy shi** i didn't even know you could do that. it had never even crossed my mind that SMS connected to e-mail
brilliant, johnson. brilliant!
I've sent email with mine through text before...
I was messing around with it when I setup my gmail account to forward me emails through text...
not working for me..
Hmm.. this is not working for me on Tmobile with an MDA.. Has anyone had any success with tmobile?
PLease i just realised that i was still getting charged for sending text messages, even though i have tha total intertnet plan from tmobile.
I was just wondering if anyone knows of a program that would let me send text messages bypassing the cellular network, and using my internet,(be it wifi or edge or gprs) to carry the messages.
Kinda like when you use your computer to send texts to phones, is there a program for windows mobile?
thank you in advance
I believe there are a few websites out there to send messages with, tmobile used to have a public SMS application, however I am unsure of any method of "relaying" an SMS message through the included pocket outlook sms handler to one of those sites transparently.
thank you. I still will be awaiting answers.

one approach might be to use an email server to bounce the messages to sms email addresses.
say you use the email side of the messaging app, either through synching to exchange or through a pop, imap or whatever, and point the email at the sms address, I forget what the tmobile address is, but for example it would be like [email protected]
I guess that semi solves the problem without any programming, you would just need each carrier's email address, and specify a return address that would go to your phone for when they SMS back.

previous:H6315(hell in gadget form), Tmo original xda PPCPE.
CaptDistraction, you need to be creative about the 6315; I gave mine to my wife when I upgraded to to 8125. Got rid of the memory hogs and you can't imagine how our relationship has improved, we now talk about the same techy stuff; she complaing, I fixing by the way she no longer complains about how much time I spend with my phone, cause she's now doing the same. Now we have no time to talk to each other...... :twisted:

Haha, I tried every rom out there, I kept the device for a while and finally sold it to support the MDA purchase.
Man I messed with that 6315 to no end, had so much stuff going on with it trying different app combos, spent hours in the registry, no matter how simple I kept it, I couldn't ever get it to answer calls in a timely fashion.
My biggest love with the MDA is when you press that green answer button, it immediately picks up the call.
First of all, I am using an AT&T Tilt with stock ROM and WM6 pro.
I have been searching forever for a program that can Block both CALLS and SMS and then be able to automatically respond to each with a predefined sms.
The only one that I have come across is CALL SMS blocker which can be seen here. This program would be AMAZING if only the sms auto response worked. It has the ability to block both calls + sms, and then even send an automated sms response for both. Its just that after it has blocked the call and/or sms it will not send the automated sms response. I dont know if I am doing something wrong. So if anyone has this program working on their Kaiser then could you help me out.
Another idea I had was to use 2 separate programs to achieve my goal. I was going to use Auto SMS reply (found here) to take care of automatically responding with an sms to my missed calls and then I was going to use another program to automatically respond to text messages. Only problem now is that I cant find a program that automatically replies to text messages. So if anyone knows of such a program could you please let me know, I would be very appreciative. Thank you in advance for any help anyone can give me.
I don't know if you searched the whole forum, but doing it right gave me for example this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=2335726
They talk about Magicall. Can have a look
How would one send an SMS to a landline? If nothing but cell phones called me I could see a great use for something like this but I get a lot of calls from regular phones.
Right ok rather confused by this to be honest, and will try to explain in as simple way as possible as its easy to totally not make sense
Well I am able to send texts to every person on my contact list. Everyone, apart from 1.... the thing is I can send them texts, but only if i manually change the number to +44 at the start of every message to this individual.
The number on my phone is saved as a contact as a +44 number but if you click 'send message' is automatically changes iself to 077... Annoyingly. Or if you try to reply to a message it changes to a 077. The only way I can send a message to this person if I start from scrath and make a 'new message' every time and type the number in manually... Very time consuming and annoying. :/ and its starting to fancly piss me off D: Its the same for calls if you try to call from a message etc when its changed to 077 it does not work.... You have to type it manually then or unlike messages it works if you use you contact list. The only way I can contact this person is if the number stays as a +44 number, However my phone is determined to change it to an 077 so its unable to work D:
I wondered it this might be a problem with my provider etc, but no ive recived the all clear from o2, the person has not blocked me as they are recieving messages i have to manually make, and calls. Im reciving texts from everyone else etc and able to send texts to everyone else, i can send messages to people using an 077 number and +44 numbers. So fanclly im very confused
Is there a hidding setting i could have clicked or activated so that it always changes to be an 077?? or is its somthing else.. Any answeres would be much appreciated, if non of you brainy lot can help I might end up daring to call Samsung
Thanks

Hello XDA.. Fairly simple. I'm getting unwanted calls at 6am from a whole batch of numbers. I tried for a while the built in Do Not Disturb, but it's catching personal calls too (which may not be in my contacts).
I want this operation to run only between *0600 and 0900*. Reject call, send canned SMS requesting the caller to contact me via SMS "Please send SMS if its important" instead.
Tasker can do this? Thank you kindly ilu
