hi there!! i wanted to know if there is possible to sen d an sms to more than one person at the same time... in my older nokia, i could creat group in contacts, or when i sent messages i could check the contact and tick those i wanted to sent messages at the same time for all...
but i don't know how to do it in diamond...
Add Recipient, then go and add next recipient then add next recipient?
if your going to mail all of them often save on in drafts and reuse it
EDIT: In the SMS go to NEW then in right down corner go to menu->Add Recipient
no, that's not the ideia...
what i want is to send one message but not just to one person, for example, i want to send a message saying "good xmas" to 50 persons at the same time...
but i don't know how to do that..
When in the new message, in "To:" click add recipient under menu, find the person you want, add him, and then click add recipient until you get all the recipients you want.
it works the same way as a email in Outlook. (on your PC)
I think this freeware is what you are looking for:

Erm, are u Trolling ?? Diamond is capable of sending to multiple people one SMS in one step, just do a new SMS
then go to menu-> Add recipient for the 1st person
then go to menu-> Add recipient for the 2nd person
then go to menu-> Add recipient for the 3rd person
... and so on
and all will get ur Happy Xmas
as i sayed earlyer ... so whats the prob bro ?
Exactly what I'm looking for as well, although the application posted above is good, is there anything which adds tick boxes to contacts so that you can select more than one contact instead of groups.
I know you can add and then add again but that is just annoying especially when you move from Nokia to WM...
just start writing their name in, then select them when i suggests the right person, and then start writing the next one!

Was that directed at me?
If your read the original request properly, the OP is looking for a way to send messages to many people without having to repeatedly tap "add recipient". You haven't provided a solution.
If you read the link I've posted, you'll see that it adds the ability to select any number of contacts using check boxes without the irritating repetition.

The above application does allow individual contacts with check boxes. After selecting a group, including the "All Contacts" group, the next screen has the check boxes.

I see.
The OP wasn't very clear, I guess I only understood him (or her) because I had been looking for a similar application. He also failed to thank you for your original suggestion.
However, it's best to not to acuse people of trolling just because you haven't understood their question!
sorry guys... i couldn't use my internet for a few days, so i couldn't read alll these messages.... first, i want to thank for the help...
and them maybe i wasn't so explicit as i should be.... but what i want is a way to could send one sms to a lot of people from my contact, but avoid to add recipient, then select one person, then go again to add recipient, then select another contact, and then again add recipient, select another contact, and so on... lets imagine i would like to send the particular message to 50 persons from my contact list... i would take an eternity... so i was looking for a program that allows me to go to add recipient, and inside it i could select those 50 persons that i want to get my message, and no add recipient, select contact, another add recipient, selecet another contact, and again add recipient,bla bla bla....
ok? was i cleared this time? hope so, sorry for my english guys....
i think that way it could be more easy to send mesages to a group of people, right?

At minimum, 5 fiddly clicks from the Today screen to editing a new SMS.
Anyone know a good short-cut?
Please ignore me...
Just found this thread on page 2:

thanks!
this already have an open thread with 2 cabs in it I perfer the cab I posted but anyway try searching first next time buddy!
You may want to check out PocketCM. I love the interface and the Threaded SMS view. Very simple and clean.
You simply click contacts, click the contact and then click SMS. there you will see all sms conversations (which you can scroll) your messages are a different color then the contacts and a text input area at the bottom where you just start typing and click send.
I know this isn't what you were talking about but i have gotten very use to this and found it much faster after using it for a couple of months.

As I mentioned in one of the other threads, what I do is start with the contact... from the Today screen, click contacts, select your contact whichever way you like to do, then select "send text message". You're now at the point of editing a new text message. Since all the steps you did to select a contact you would have had to do anyway, those clicks were all "free". This is actually much shorter than if you had the "new" command that people are clamoring for.
is there a way to add multiple recipients to an sms message
I want to send out the same message to 20+ people but have to add them all individually which is a pain!

i think what you mean is be able to do a "group" send but i don't think so that is one of the options available under the sms application that comes on kaiser. You could search around for one that does enable that though, as i don't know of any (not that i ever looked for one, only text occassionally ).
when you create a new sms, where you put in the person you send it to, what i do is, hit the hard center button, and that brings up contacts, after you select the contact you want it returns to the send part of the sms, just keep repeating that process till you have all the people that you want to send it to. see if that works for ya or if thats what you wanted.

try that...quite a handy little app
Try SMS-Chat!

Cheers - hadn't realised you could do that - was fed up with having to go through each menu everytime. I think I'll try it that way before I put more software on my device
Thanks again
Hi,
Is there any way to select multiple people easily when sending out sms messages?
Thanks
when u write a texts and type the name in the "To:" box and then select the name, the phone puts ";" in and you able to add another name and so on
Hope this makes sense and is what you asked
Marty
Thanks for the reply, what i was reallyt after is there a way of selecting multiple contacts in one go. For example is there a way to pull up my contacts as a list with a tick box next to it, so i can jsut tick the ones i want to send it to, or do i have to select is one and then back to the main text screen, then add another person. etc
you may have to use a 3rd party app to be able to do group sms in that way.
Thanks Marty for the reply again, does anyone know of any third part apps that may be able to do this.
Thanks

ok, dont kill me, the forum internal search did not spit out something seful ;-)
and google also not, and google sux!
my question:
i can tick the option, that i get every delivery of my short text checked, with an sms back, that the thing is done.
is there a possibility that all this works a bit more nicer?
no extra sms?
may be just a different color or symbol behind the sms?
like on my sony ericson or so?
any ideas or solutions?
I don't know if I understood exactly:
1. in message: click on all messages, then MENU -> TOOLS -> OPTIONS -> select SMS/MMS -> request delivery notification
2. when you send an SMS, if you look at all messages, if it was not delivered, you'll see an unopened envelope. When delivered, you'll see the envelope opened
@1.
yes i did activated that "request delivery notification"
but at my windows phone, the notification comes as an extra sms back to me.
on my sony phone (not windows mobile!) it came back and changed the status icon at the saved sms inside the "sent" folder...
on winmobile i have an extra anoying sms in my incoming folder...
@2.
do you have it smoother looking like i described my sony situation?
thanx in advance
just remove the 1st of my points. The thing with the envelope happens anyhow ... I have no 1 deactivated. I know that on sony ericsson there would be a message to inform receival, but it wouldn't be saved. It was a good idea
if i deactivate the recive approve message, then i do not know if the sms is actually arrived on the other phone!!!!
the nevelope icon change is only on oyur own phone i guess, only sent or unsend is displayed there i guess... without any information interaction with the outside world of your isp!
let me see...
edit: checked. So, I have number 1 disabled and still, when I send a message, when it's not received the envelope is closed. When received, the envelope has a yellow letter inside. To check, send a message, and fast press all messages (the bottom left option) and then you'll see. Tell me if it works with your topaz
no!
its like i ve said...
if the message left my mobe... there is the open envelope with the letter inside...
windows mobile does not have some hidden usage of a feedback-recieving-back-sms that changes the envelope icon...
okay,m but when you tap all messages fast after send, do you see the closed envelope or you don't see it at all?
hm..
please tell me in detail what actions you mean i should perform to get the special behavior.
when i tap the send button.
my text is added under the rest of the sms conversation (like on my iPhone)
me and the other persons sms mixed like a chat....
when i got quickly to all the sms-conversation-list...
"incoming" (or so, i have a german phone)
every envelope is opened (marked read)
strange ... when I I send a message, it is stored in oinbox, and when I tap (in the same menu) all messages, the message that I sent is in an enclosed envelope and then, it turns into an opened one ... :-? meaning it is received, or so I think :-?
when u tab it, its typicall outlook beahvior, then it shows, that you did read it ;-)
not the other person...
but bad luck, that no one else is contributing here :-/
will do some experiments though ... :-?. I think you are right ... sorry for my mistake ... there must be some options not to save the notification. Will search
Use SMS reports eraser. It's free and deletes the delivery report after a defined period of time.
No fancy colors or such, but does its job nicely.
thank you for this. Cheers!!!
it does only erase the reports?
does it also change the icons or so?
where does it come from? webpage?
AAAAAAAAAAAAND
thank you, by the way!!! ;-)
ok... i used google after posting my message...
sorry ;-)
just deleting is one way...
any other smoother looking way?
should try this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=529289
sorry, but do you really speak english and understand what you read and understand what you write?
do u understand the windows mobile and the pocket pc?
the thing you refer me too is again something different
that is a hotfix and directed you so that you should post there a question. Someone has tried it and maybe the HTC guys did something with the notification saved to messages. The idea was to ask there whether the messages were still saved. No matter, I'll ask 8-|
ok, sorry, u did mean well.
but again, the hotfix does something with the vibration, nothing else ;-)
no smooth designed coded solution for us ;-)
Can someone tell me why is it i can hit the plus on a txt type in the letters of a persons name and they will populate to the name so I can select to make a txt.
How ever when i go to people and type there name they are not listed in People or to be found in my contacts list.
I have clicked on phone check FB and they come up under contacts. I un check that check People so only the poeple I want on my phone will come up and they are missing. I have added them as a contacts and clicked save and still nothing " they will not show up under people "
Dont get me wrong I like androied and the features but I didnt have that issue with IOS " i went with android hopping it would change but still seem to have issues.
screens popping up, things missing and having to re add them. and etc with Android.
" just a fyi i had android for some time but left for IOS to try it out and back to android. there are ups and downs with both but seems like Android for some reason has more issues with things.

I might be misunderstanding your post, so just to clarify: there are people who you can see in the autocomplete To: field for text messaging, but are invisible in the man People app? My best guess is that you've got some contact sources deselected. In the upper left of the People app, hit the button and make sure that you've got the right contact sources checked for sync.
On that same note, if contacts are hidden from showing, why do they get populated in the text message window? For example, I don't want my yahoo contacts syncing with my Google contacts, so I leave yahoo unchecked and never syncs. However, numerous email addresses popup from my yahoo accounts when I start typing someone's name.

HTC put contact search as a different option. Under settings, choose "Search contacts by" and remove whatever you don't want.
Correct,
under my people I don't have Facebook, Gmail, Hotmail or anything checked. I don't want my phone sync with them. I only had numbers to my phone under people or contacts on the check mark I only have Phone contacts checked nothing else.
correct I hit the + to add a person type in the name and number and save it when I'm done I look for that person and they are not to be found when I just added them.

I don't think clearing does anything but hide those contacts from normal view. You're probably still syncing those contacts in (you'd have to check under Settings > Accounts and Sync). My best guess without seeing your phone setup (screenshots might help us out) is that you have your phone set to add contacts to one of the accounts that you have set not to display by mistake, and so they're all winding up in there.

where do I check this setting at?
see the image I have it synced to Phone, when I add a contact it still wont show up after I hit the plus then add contact
Ok Im starting to figure this out just need more input or help
When I go to people and click 3 dots and go to managed accounts then go to linked contacts I look at everyone and it has everyone as Phone then Facebook as being linked.
the few people Im talking about is has them with Google / Facebook so it doesn't show them on the phone under contacts. now how do I get them off google and into phone when linked.
that's what I need now
solved the case,
when I click the plus sign to add a contact under it had google I changed it to phone when I added the person and all is good now. what a tuff one. one setting can mess the whole thing up. LOL
thanks everyone.
