SMS roblem - Touch Viva, MDA Basic General

Anyone knows how do i add multiple contacts in one go to a particular message
i.e. check recipients names and add them without pressing enter again and again
its really irritating to add 27 recipients

if you are sending to the same group of persons you can try this...
#click on the To: field, click menu (bottom right) and select Add Recipient...
#Contacts will open, select the person by clicking on it. it is added and you are back in the sms compose window. click Menu and add again all the recipients one by one like the steps above.
#once you are done adding all required contacts, click and hold inside the To: field and select Select All. all contacts are selected and highligted.
#click and hold again inside To: field and select Copy
#open Pocket Word or Notes, paste it and save the file.
#next time when you want to send a group message again, open the Word or Notes file we created, copy everything and close the file.
#compose you message, tap and hold inside the To: field and click on Paste. all your contacts should now be added at one go.
you can also try searching for third party contacts manager which allow creating a group and sending a message to that group in one go.
hope that this help.

Thank you very much

Adding Message Folders?

Can anyone tell me how i could add another folder to store text messages in? I try to save them in the outbox but it just tries to send them to people over and over again...
Thanks
Press the messaging button (the envelope one), select SMS/MMS from the list and you'll be in your Inbox. Next, select Menu | Tools | Manage Folders and you'll see the current list of SMS/MMS folders. Tap and hold on SMS/MMS and the pop-up menu will allow you to create a "New Folder"; this will be a top-level folder - call it whatever you want (Saved Messages, or Archive or Funny Stuff ) and hit OK....your new folder will then be shown in the list. It's not advisable to create sub-folders of existing folders (e.g. sub-folder of Inbox) as it can cause problems with certain messaging backup tools......the decision is yours
Now, when you get a message you want to keep, when you have the message open (or from the Inbox screen), select Menu | Move and then tape on your new folder - the message will be saved to there.
Hope that helps,
Mark.
Thanks... I've been trying forever. You're the best.
Is there a way to do this in WM 6.1?

[Q] Dumb question - but I can't find the answer in the manual. How to cut and paste?

Sorry for this basis request - but how do I cut and paste text from a website/doco/email etc etc and paste them between SMS and emails etc?
Have read the manual and tried touch and hold, drag to highlight etc and nothing seems to work
Thanks
Google search found this:
http://webcache.googleusercontent.c...+copy+paste+Galaxy+S&cd=1&hl=en&ct=clnk&gl=au
But it only applies to copying text from a webpage - nothing about copying from one email/SMS to another??
Surely it must be possible - iPhones can do it dammit
I don't see any select text feature on the built in email & gmail app.. but for SMS, there is a "Copy Text" feature and if you want to select a text, forward the message first then "Select Text".
cut /paste from other sources, for example a browser , is being added in android 2.2 . thts so far what i know
I got Froyo on the SGS, so I've no idea what here is new and what was already there on 2.1.
1) Browser - long touch anywhere on the page opens a small box that you can drag to surround what you need, and then you got copy/share/search.
2) SMS - inside a message - menu > 'copy message text'.
3) GMAIL app - inside a mail - Menu > more > select text. You drag to select and it's copied to the clipboard (no share/search/etc, only directly copying to clipboard).
4) A long touch on any input box brings up a select/copy/paste/cut/etc context menu.
I'm still trying to find a way to copy/paste from a gmail chat...

K-9 Mail
1. The ability to "select all", then delete. -- YES
2. When forwarding an email, open "contacts" to select the recipients. -- INDIRECT. Start typing, and it will show matching contacts in drop down as u type
Thanks for your reply disblo009. I have K-9 now and have had Maildroid and both will allow "all" delete but not "contact" selection. And both will match a contact to the first few letters typed. It's just that I usually forward emails to about 20 people; however, it's not always the same 20 people; therefore creating a "group" with the 20 address', as recommended by the developer of Maildroid, doesn't really solve the situation. The email program that was on my Captivate when I purchased it would allow you to use the contact list to select recipients but not allow "all" delete. It seems as though anyone who receives and forwards emails would appreciate these features; however, I can not find one program that has both.

delete sms from initial list

Hi,
In messaging app I see list of sms received. From the initial list details I can figure out that few messages are not useful to read. How can I multiple select them and then delete them.
Currently I go to each message, have to select it and it bring up entire message and then from menu I choose delete thread.
Like in PC we would do CTRL and SHIFT to select multiple messages cannot we do that. Also if just one message of the list can we delete it from initial list itself.
Regards,
