General :: Android ICS Group Texting - Send To Landlines?
May 23, 2013
I have a group that I text to, a sports team, but two of my contacts in the group don't get my messages. They bounce back to me because they are sending to their land phones! Obviously there are multiple phone numbers for these contacts, and the first time this happened I went into the contacts to set the mobile number as default - but that makes no difference. Google Android still tries to send them to the landlines! My phone uses ICS.

How do I send a Group SMS to a group of contacts I have defined in Android ICS ?
I was using a HTC Sense 3.5 ROM before, and that had an option to send Group SMS once I opened the Group in the default Contacts application ... But I don't see any similar option in ICS ...

I am new to texting and wanted to know if it is possible to setup a group text on the android? I am a coach of a soccer team and would like to send out a text message to each member of the team but only do it once rather than send each person one. As I mentioned before I do not use texting often so I am not sure if I can do this.

I have a group of 5 friends whom are trying to stay in contact with each other. Heres the situation:
Me
Android
Free Texting to Verizon
Carrier: Verizon
Dara
Android
Unlimited Texting
Carrier: Verizon
Spader.................
Now theres some interesting groupchat apps out there. I was looking into using BrightKite... My classmates use it during boring lectures in gradschool. But the problem with BrightKite is that Empty (that is his nickname) does not have free texting to any carrier but verizon, and BrightKite's groupchat # is not verizon. I am in a similar situation, but since I have an android phone I can access the groupchat via that and I don't need to use up my texts.............

Does anyone know how to set up a Group for texting so that you can text a specific group of people all at one time instead of having to do each one idividual? Thanks

Just to start off, I have a Droid 3, flashed to metro. I didn't flash it myself, so I don't have very extensive knowledge, but it is rooted.
1) My biggest problem: I can't receive or send group messages. I tried both handcent and go sms pro. In GO sms Pro, I've checked Send Settings > MMS Group Chat. I can send and receive MMS, but when I send it to multiple people, they all receive individual texts rather than a group text. Long story short I'm trying to message a group of people with iPhones. How can I do this or what exact settings do I need? I've looked at other threads, but to no avail.
2) 3G isn't working. It worked when I initially got it, and when I called the place that flashed my phone, they said that Metro sent out some file that blocks the 3G access.

I am using the stock texting option and have a group set up. This weekend I sent out a group text and several of them went to the email addresses. I think this is because the ?primary? contact is the phone then the email address. Before the update all texts would go to the proper number so the people would get the texts. Does anybody know how to change the ?primary? contact? I hate to think this is just another thing that 2.1 added (or took away) to make this phone??.well less that I expect at this point.

I have the contacts set up in my starred groups already but can't figure out how to text the contacts in a specific group (e.g. Family, CoWorkers, Friends) from my stock messenger. I can do it using the handcent app and although I have the notification setting off on the stock messenger the message still makes its way to the stock messenger and handcent which I believe would take up twice as much memory on my phone causing it to lagg. if I am wrong in assuming this and what I can do to fix this whether it be the correct way in sending a message to a group or deleting the stock messaging app, etc...

how to send out emails to a group, without searching for each name individually. I wasn't able to find any answers, but did find a few people in the same boat as myself. So, I've stumbled across the answer: Contacts Groupu. I pulled it from the market, and it syncs with the groups you have in your Google Contacts. When you go to view a group, you can toggle to "check all", then hit email and and watch it plug each email address into the "to" field within the native Gmail app.

When I try to do this to a group with more than 6 people, it converts the message to a mms and wants to use there email and wont add any more than 10 contacts.This way is messed up, I have made several groups of 7 different sets of contacts, They all change to MMS Message when selecting any of those groups.I can send a group message by doing the below actions without any problem for some reason though, Which TBH is just more hasse.

How can I send a text to groups with over 20 contacts in them? I have two work groups that range from 20 to 25 members and often need to get messages to them. I switched from a Blackberry and like the new phone a great deal but I really need to have the ability to send large group texts.

I got a Milestone at about Christmas time and have loved it, but now I have one slight issue with it. I can't send a text message, and whenever I attempt to send a message, it simply comes back saying "Message Not Sent". It is highly frustrating.I have been into the Phone Information, under Testing, and it says that my GSM Disconnects is inactive, and the fail is because No Error. This is frustrating and I have no idea how to fix the Problem.This is my last resort before I call my service provider and see what I can do, and I would much rather solve this myself.Any help would be highly appreciated,

I have an Xperia X10 Mini, and for the first time ever of using a mobile I want to set up a contact group for all the parents of my kids' football team so I can send out a single message to multiple contacts in one easy go. However, I cannot seem to find a way to do this with an X10. On my old Nokia, it was really easy, but having come into the modern world and finally upgraded to a smartphone, I would have thought this would have been a no-brainer! Please, can someone help me!

I'm new to the moment, just coming off the blackberry curve. One feature I liked about the blackberry was the ability to set up a group text, such as "family" and send a text to the entire family. Is there an app or another way to set this up for the Samsung Moment phone?

I have a Samsung Galaxy Mini2 with Android 2.3.6 (Gingerbread). I don't like how call log appears.If you call someone by 5 times, the name of the contact/ number will appear by 5 time in the call log.The same with missed calls.I want to appears only one date. Example: To show "Contact name/ phone number" (5) and when click on the contact name to show the detailed information. Exist an application/update for android that will improve the call log in this way?

how to do this in Linux, but I would like to know if there is a way to create a system group in Android? for example:
Root is member of the "Root" system group
The regular user that's logged in on the phone (I'm using an Evo LTE) is as follows:
uid=10213(app_213) gid=10213(app_213) groups=1015(sdcard_rw), 3003(inet)
I would like to know how to create these additional groups?
I'm rooted with Busybox installed.

when I send a text to a contact, I type the name in the search and choose the contact. For some contacts that works great. For some, when I select them it sends an email and not a text. I have verified for those contacts that the phone number is set as default - is there something else i can do other than create 1 contact for phone and another for email?
Am using the default text and contacts apps
