Why does the People / Contacts entry automatically set up a 'send message' for every phone number even if the phone number is not a mobile number? That means that even though 3/4 of the phone numbers don;t have text message capability, they have a send message.

My problem is this, I downloaded Handcent and really like it, however, I can't send messages from home. I have marginal service here (around -98 avg.) but I do get 3G. Whenever I send a message it says Message Failed - Retry, Cancel? I've even had this problem in places with great coverage for both 3G and cell service. The stock messaging app works just fine. So what I've been doing is receiving messages with Handcent and then sending them using the stock app.
So, does anyone have any ideas of what I can do? Are there any settings that can be changed? Does handcent use 3G to send messages?
I'm now trying Chomp to see if that's any better. And, just an FYI, I'm having trouble with text messages, not MMS. I haven't tried sending any pics or videos yet, I've just been sending SMS.
I am new here, and just got my new Tattoo, (love it). But I have 2 questions
1. How do you send a text message to all of your contacts?
2. I have inserted a wrong notification on the calender, and cant delete it. How do I delete it?
Is there a way to eliminate all the send messages in address book except for the Mobil line. Why do they put send messages on land lines. I have some address contacts with 6 numbers then I have 6 send messages contacts to match every Tel Number.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm totally new to Android, enjoying it and loving my Samsung Moment.I have searched Google as well as this forum for an answer to my question - forgive me if I did not search far and wide enough. So here is my issue.I could swear that when I tapped on an email address for a contact inside Contacts, that a window would pop asking if I'd like to send a Gmail message or a Work Email message (these choices had the little Gmail and Work Email icons as well).About a day or two ago, this option no longer appears for me in Contacts. Instead, when tapping on an email address inside a contact, I am taken straight to the Welcome screen to setup up Moxier Mail, which I do not want to use.I would like to just use the native Gmail option. But now, it appears as though my Contact email addresses no longer connect to the option of sending via Gmail or Work Email
View 2 Replies View RelatedI want to Send a message to multiple Whatsapp Contacts/Groups using "Tasker" with "WhatsTasker" plugin .I tested my implementation to send SMS message to multiple contacts and it works well. But when I try to send message to whatsapp it sends the message only to the first index (Contact/Group)
Also, I have test this to send a personal message to 2 contacts but it sends the message only to first number .I tried to trim the "@s.whatsapp.net"/for contacts and "@g.us" for groups in 2 variables then add them inside whatstasker After the number -> Still sends to only first number
I thought it's because it's using root access and Toast message displays so I used "Wait" action for 10 seconds inside For loop after sending the message but still same thing only first contact will receive the message
Code:
SMS (9)
A1: Variable Set [ Name:%msg To:Test tasker Do Maths:eek:ff Append:eek:ff ]
A2: Variable Set [ Name:%telephones To:90123456789-1395136140,91234567890-1395136053 Do Maths:eek:ff Append:eek:ff ][code].....
I have the Samsung Fascinate obviously but I'm annoyed with one Android feature. I managed to get only my contacts to sync what I want (not e-mails). However, when I send text messages, the message contacts seems to all the e-mail addresses I've previously sent e-mails to.
Is there any way to get rid of that? And why the heck isn't it the same as my contacts?
Why is when I send a text message or an email it automatically adds them to my contacts?

View 10 Replies View RelatedFound out yesterday that my "computer" is not sending text messages (using the native app). It caused an argument between my wife and I, and about damn-near caused a divorce. The bad thing is that, from what I can tell, it hasn't been sending ANY for a couple of days now. (Notice I didn't say that a potential divorce was not the bad thing ) I can receive texts all day long, not able to send them. In the time that I wasn't able to send them, I wasn't receiving any notifications that the text wasn't sent! I can go into the app, menu > undelivered and see 2 dozen texts there. Why am I not getting a failure notification if I have "Failure Notification" checked in the settings?
Because it went on for so long before being noticed, I have no way of knowing if I screwed around with the settings or if an app I downloaded has caused the problem. I've been tempted to use Handcent, but I'm leery about using something that radically changes the interface when I am a new Superphone and new Android user. Besides, it may not fix the problem.
Does anyone have pic text messaging issues? I get an error message "unable to send message. Retrying generic network failure"
I have handcent, but get the same error message with stock messaging app.
The only things I could find within the incredible forums was that it may be linked to a app bug, which that specific app I have never used, or this is a known HTC error which I can't confirm.
So, is there a way to send a text message when your in landscape mode without hitting the key that minimizes the keyboard first?

View 17 Replies View RelatedThis is my first help post so please be kind.I noticed when I imported my contacts from my gmail account, that the phone is giving me the option to send a SMS message to every single number listed not just mobile numbers. Why would i want to send a text message to a land line phone that can't receive them? Is anyone else seeing this? I checked out a friends Eris and she is showing the send message option for mobile numbers only. Is there a setting I'm missing for this? I've looked everywhere I can think of and can't find anything on this.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am trying to send an MMS message like this --
Intent sendIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SEND); sendIntent.putExtra("sms_body", "hello world"); sendIntent.setType("vnd.android-dir/mms-sms"); sendIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, Uri.fromFile(new File (url))); // I have tried Uri.parse(url) here sendIntent.setType("image/*"); // I have tried "image/jpg" and "impage/jpeg" here... startActivity(sendIntent);
The file that I'm trying to send is in my application sandbox.
/data/data/com.myapp.test/files/myco/cache/1234.jpg
However, every time I send the message, I get --
10-16 01:46:51.371: ERROR/MediaModel(3298): IOException caught while opening or reading stream 10-16 01:46:51.371: ERROR/MediaModel(3298): java.io.FileNotFoundException: /data/data/com.myapp.test/files/myco/ cache/1234.jpg 10-16 01:46:51.371: ERROR/MediaModel(3298): at org.apache.harmony.luni.platform.OSFileSystem.open(OSFileSystem.java: 231) 10-16 01:46:51.371: ERROR/MediaModel(3298): at java.io.FileInputStream.<init>(FileInputStream.java:80)
Is this because the file I'm pointing at is in my local sandbox? And if it is, how do I expose it to the MMS app. I have thought about copying it to the SD card first, but that seems like a really bad solution... Can I have the intent run as thought the person who received it is me? (I thought I remembered reading that somewhere...)
