I would like to know if its possible to enable or include schedule email function in note 5. This feature is very important for my business need but Samsung support doesn't know how to answer my question that why this feature was taken out when sms schedule still exists.

Hi Friends,
If you have been using a Samsung Omnia Pro or Omnia II for a while, you know what a pain in the *** is the Samsung's SMS/MMS application, also known as jinbox. This application is dead slow and takes huge amount of memory if left running. Almost 99% of the people I have seen want to get rid of it somehow.
In the past, some developers, including me, have released various fixes for this problem. For example, my Omnia Messaging Switcher application, which lets you switch between the native SMS system as well as Samsung messaging system. But all these utilities fail at one thing or another. You have to choose between either having faster, native SMS app and loosing MMS capability or keep both SMS and MMS functionality and take the pain of using that monstrous app.
Now here is a solution to all of your problems!
This small cab will install following fixes on your phone :
1. Your messaging application will be switched to Native Windows Application. The "Message" shortcut will point to this, and there will be a separate shortcut named "Samsung Messaging" for accessing the Samsung sh*t if you still want to use it for some reason.
2. In the SMS account, on clicking New, you will get 2 options instead of one: SMS or MMS. On creating SMS, the default Windows Native SMS composer will open just the way you like it. On creating MMS, the Samsung composer will open, without loading the whole Samsung Messaging App. The MMS sent and received by you will be perfectly visible in Sent Items/Inbox and perfectly editable/viewable, even in the threaded messaging view.
3. The E-Mail shortcut's icon will change to a better looking one and if you are on default settings, tapping it will show the list of email accounts to choose from.
All in all, it will seems to work just like it should smile.gif Let me know if you guys face any issues. Its working as it should on JC2/JE2 default and my custom roms, at least on my phone.
Dear fellow xda-ers,
I am an early adopter of Project Fi. I used to have a feature in my previous AT&T number that can send me texts when people send a mail to <my number>@txt.att.net. After multiple searches and chats with various Project Fi Support techs, I now understand that there is no SMS gateway for Project Fi, at least not yet. In this scenario, can the revered xda-ers suggest me a workaround/alternative. The case in point is this; for my work, I get paged when there is a critical/high priority issue that needs my attention. While I was with AT&T, I used to give <my number>@txt.att.net in the call out field and I get a text whenever I am paged. I am trying to get same/similar functionality now. Alternative is to be stuck with a pager, which should be in a museum & not in anyone's hands.
All your suggestions are appreciated!
I have the same issue. I send my alerts to my fi gmail address.
Contact ProjectFi and ask about it. It's like voting.

I'm up the same river. Google Voice USED TO have this feature, e.g. <number>@txt.voice.google.com -- but ProjectFi sadly ditches this for some reason.
If you are looking for email-to-sms, please let Google know. The more people who ask, the more likely it may be (re)implemented. https://support.google.com/fi/contactflow?hl=en
There's some interesting info over at the /r/ProjectFi subreddit. For example:

I probably should have checked this out before I ditched Verizon. Now I have to figure out how to get server alerts from work...
Edit: I ended up creating a label in Gmail and a filter to match specially-addressed messages and assign to that label ([email protected] or [email protected]). Then I configured Gmail app to sync that label and play a certain tone on new/unread messages. I also use the Alert.me app (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.hidtechs.alertme) which can repeatedly alert on unread Gmail label messages. So it's all the same but as a friend pointed out, would require to always have a Data connection so Gmail app can receive mail.

Another app workaround option is LightFlow which can trigger individual notifications on specific gmail labels. I happen to have already bought this (load of use it is for the abandoned LED on Nexus 6 but I had already bought the paid version so I use it for this now).
I submitted a question through the ProjectFi contact page, and this is the reply I got:
Hi Nate,
Thanks for contacting Project Fi support today! I see in our notes that you're not getting any responses through our SMS gateway.I really wish we did support this but because we use the gateway for our back end it isn't currently something we offer.
Project Fi incorporated a few Google Voice features and in that process, users who use both services don't have all of the same autonomy they used to experience. This article from our Official Project Fi help pages helped me to understand it better: What Google Voice feature I get with Project Fi.
I do get a good deal of questions about the email to text features. Almost everyone who reaches out to us is also able to contact their bank or company and have them send the same notifications through a short-code channel. I hope this helps!
If there is anything else that we can do for you, or you have another question, please feel free to reach out to us anytime. We are always happy to help!!
Thanks!

Again, the more people who ask about this, the more likely for it to be implemented.

An IFTTT + Push bullet recipe would work well in this scenario. That would give you the ability to send notifications to multiple devices at once too.

I've done something like this,
(1) Ifttt recipe that'll trigger a text to my phone with content of the paged email I receive by pattern matching the Subject line
(2) As a level 1 redundancy, Have Ifttt call me with the text content
(3) As a level 2 redundancy, Send the mail to Pushover which then sends me a high priority notification straight to the phone
This setup is running fine so far.

my OnCircle feature doesnt work. It is turned ON and so is advanced messaging. But the feature still doesn't work
.
Don't feel bad mine doesn't either, don't bother calling Samsung as they will not have any ideas to help. Don't call your carrier because they will just refer you to Samsung. Don't go to bestbuy asking because the Samsung rep will say that its because of Google hangouts (at least that is what my rep said) odds are its just something that only works in China somewhere
spent hours speaking to Samsung and Optus yesterday and eventually managed to figure out It is carrier based and also some features only work if your contact has a S6 or S6 edge
**** works perfectly for me.. only can send it to my girlfriend coz she has the normal edge..

Is yours abnormal?
No she has the s6 edge
It only works when other person has an edge (plus) too.

Anyone with any variant of the s6 or s7 and Note 5 can OnCircle. The b problem is is that there are a few bugs preventing it from working...
1. To test first go ahead and save your own number as a contact and go to MyPeople and see if you pop up. If you do then that means your OnCircle is working fine and the others either does not or doesn't have a compatible device...
2. If you do not pop up on MyPeople go to your default Messages app: More>Settings>Enhanced Messaging and turn it on if it was off go ahead and try to do the step 1 test if it was on/ still will not work continue to step 3
3. Go to your default Messages app: More>Settings>Enhanced Messaging>Registered Information and make sure all options are checked and test out step 1 again if it fails them go to step 4
4. Go to your default Messages app: More>Settings>Enhanced Messaging>Registered Information>More>Deregister Phone Number...
Then re-register it and once it's registered go ahead and turn on all the required settings like Enhanced Messaging, Profile Sharring, OnCircle etc... then test out step 1 again and it should work this time, if not reboot and try again and if still no go then your carrier does not support Enhanced Messaging. Try modifying your APN, for instance i cannot use Enhanced Messaging with a Simple Mobile APN so i use the T-Mobile APN which works perfectly...
***Profile Sharing allows you to be found by other contacts that have OnCircle only if you both have each other saved as contacts (you can modify these settings) but just like IMessage and FaceTime, your profile data is hosted on samsungs server so go to Contacts>MyProfile and make sure you share only the information you want, and even if you don't share your address, samsung will still have it on their servers so if privacy is your issue, don't fill out this information, and check to see if it was autofilled by your Samsung Account.
If you would like to add me on OnCircle and test out the features, send me a message on Skype and I'll be willing to add more friends to my very very low count of 2 OnCircle Friends, (one's myself).
Thank you.

I have recently purchased a Samsung Galaxy Tab S5e (Wireless) and it has the ability to pass calls and messages from compatible devices to the tablet. Currently, Sprint and T-Mobile S10+ is listed as a compatible device.
I'd like to somehow get this functionality to my Note 9. From the looks of the research I've done this is happening through a synch of the Samsung user account on the 2 devices.
My Note 9 has the Call and Message Continuity system app installed, but the feature isn't accessible through the system settings. Is there any way to enable/activate or otherwise make the setting available (Settings > Connections (it should be right after the Hotspot setting)) ??
Edit/Update - Call and Message Continuity is now available on the Note 9. I just performed the latest update and the feature is enabled. It should be noted that the update mentions nothing about the added features though. The software version I'm running is stock N960U1UEU2CSH2 . The Call and Message Continuity feature is found under Settings > Connections > Call and message continuity .
I'm able to synch messages using Samsung Flow...fyi

If you have ONLY used Samsung Flow, then you have no idea what you are missing with Call and Message Continuity. FLOW IS NOT THE SAME AT ALL.
FLOW merely duplicates your notifications. They are not actionable in meaningful anyway.
FLOW IS NOT C&MC.
I'm working on an app that send SMS remaninder by SMS once a day.
Basically I set an intent at the specified time, that trigger a receiver where It send the SMS, and show a notification that the job is done.
I tested it on some devices: old moto with oreo and also newer devices like some samsung with android 13.
When I tried it on this Huauei P30 Pro I faced 2 problem:
-the receiver not work, so I change energy save setting and it seem to work.
-SMS are not sent, but notification is showed, so I know that code is executed, but do nothing. (of course I asked the permission to access SMS when installing the app).
I did not know very well huawei devices so my question : is there any security setting that not allow me to send SMS?
any advice?
