Hi
How do I send an sms to eg. 20 people from my sim contacts?
It takes ages to select each contact one by one. Is there an easier way where I can scroll down my contacts list and select them as I go down the list?
Thanks.
Take a look at groupSMS. I think its what your looking for.

I've been looking for a program that could send SMSes to lists, like forward an important SMS to colleagues, jokes to friends etc. The cases are numerous. But even after having created custom categories and assigned them to each contact, there still didn't seem a way to use the categories for this purpose.
But I found Group SMS 1.4.1 over on softonic that adds a menu item "Add Group" which lists the categories that exist in the contact list, and lets you check which you want to add people from. On the next screen you remove checkmarks from those in those categories that you dont want to be added.
Very helpful, I hope it comes in handy for someone else.
Hey Shen why did you not post this just one day earlier. Yesterday was our Eid Festival and I was scrolling through my list of around 400 contacts selecting one by one whom to pick and whom to leave out while sending out "Eid Greetings" message. It took me kind of 45 minutes for just that. You know I really cursed MS for not building into their operating system something as basic as this. So well done I have not tried this yet but I am sure this is what I need.
Yeah I know how annoying that was But I had just found out about that program an hour before I posted here
yeah its a great app used it on my hermes as well to text my team, didn't know there was the add group function on my contacts list when i installed it until last week. Just by chance i found it.
It sure was frustrating when I didn't find any "Send to list" or "Send to group" option when i tried adding recipients for the first time.
Anyone know if theres any app for the TyTN II that combines group sms with disctintive sms sounds?
I've searched and it doesn't look like Outlook has this natively, but maybe there is a 3rd party add-on? It would be totally awesome to have message rules for SMS/MMS messages.
Also, when composing a new message, being able to select more than one recipient at a time rather than selecting one at a time.
So yeah, anyone know of anything?
Hello, I'm a newbie here. I have a ATT Tilt. I love the phone. However I hate the threaded messages. Whenever I receive a new text, the message contents are displayed on the screen. Some of my messages are private, and if some is using my phone or I am showing someone something, they can read my message. Is there anyway to remove this?
Please help
Thanks
threaded? - that's not threaded, threaded sms is where multiple sms messages are grouped together. What you are talking about is just a notification. Go into sound settings and turn off the "display message on screen" for New SMS messages
Thanks!
... so how exactly does threaded sms work
DELETED - double post
I guess the easiest comparison would be "gmail". Have you ever seen how gmail displays email messages? It basically threads all related messages together. Since text messages don't really keep a history of the current conversation, threaded text messages allow the user to see the history of the conversation all threaded together. Take a look a gmail account and it will make total sense. The Palm devices that run WM had a thread sms application but regular WM devices lilke the Tilt don't have it by default.
I was just thinking of that. So its similar to Gmail conversations... Is it based on Ajax technology as well?......Is it auto enabled, or do I have to enable it?
Hi
I'm trying to add a mail address from a received mail to an "old" contact; when I tap on the address i can choose between "Send email" or "Save in contacts", but the save options let me just save it as a NEW contact.
Same thing happens when I try to add a number from an SMS to an old contact...
Is this a bug? Is there a fix?
Thanks!!!!
Does it work if you turn off TF3D?
Hi!
Annoys me as well, I guess that this is one of the great features that the designers over at HTC came up with.
Actually you can do it for SMSs from "unknown" numbers, by tapping the SMS (from a unsigned number) in the TouchFlo SMS tab you will get a contact page for that phone number. If you then slide the tab selector left to the contact card icon, you can hit save at the right soft button. Then the contacts list will open and you can choose an existing contact to add the number to, and even choose what kind of number this is (work, office, private, etc)
The problem is that if you hit an email from the TouchFlo email tab the regular winmo messages application is launched instead of the TouchFlo messages application used for SMS.
The ideal situation would be that emails where handled in the same way as SMSs

paalkr, you are right, in this way you can save sms number to existing contact... Thanks, it's a good workaround!
I hope someone will find a "fix" for email addressess, too....
Is there a way to delete all SMS Messages from phone? Because they just keep clogging up by contact and you can only delete messages from one contact or X number of recipients but not ALL SMS from the touch of a button.
All SMS's at once? No.
All from one contact? Yes. In conversations, press and hold the recipients name, delete. All SMS's from that contact are gone
Or should it be easier than that?
No i mean all SMS from phone like WM6.5, Select All Messages > Delete

No there's no way of doing it exactly like WM 6.5
<hint, hint>
But I personally tend to think WP 7 is way easier.

Yep I think it could be way easier than that - a prime example being the way you can delete emails on WP7 by select checking boxes. When I'm doing a bit of housekeeping on my phone and decide to purge all my SMS messages, I shouldn't have to 'press, hold, delete' for every single conversation. This is the first phone I've ever owned where there wasn't a Delete All / Purge All option for the SMS inbox so I don't think it's really that unreasonable.
For the record however, I loooove almost everything else about WP7 and this is a minor irritation. Can't wait for mango.
