I'm looking for an app that will send out
A text to maybe 100 or more contacts.
I have Wanam mods installed so my text limit is 999. But I can't seem to send mass text from any sms program.

I don't use Wanam much so I can't help you out there but if you don't find another option have you considered a mass text service. I know alot of club promoters who use them but I don't know how often you'd be doing your mass texts for it to be worth paying for monthly.

Hey guys, I had previously stored my 5000+ sms messages from my XperiaX10 into my Gmail account... After I bought the Atrix4G, when I restored these messages, I saw that just some part of them were restored because there is a limitation of SMS's per conversation in Android 2.2!
Is there ANY way for me to restore ALL my messages back to my phone? Any way to remove that SMS limitation they put (which is 1000 per contact I believe)? If it's through an application (through rooting the phone, anything I can do...?)
Thanks a bunch!
Try the handcent text messaging app. Its free plus will give you a TON of extra features including unlimited inbox limit.

hmm I liked the idea, buuuut I believe Handcent syncs directly from the Messaging App so if the Messaging app doesn't get the restored messages from Gmail, I'm guessing Handcent wouldn't either? It bugged the only time I tried... I could try again, but I don't really know what I'm talking about hehe...
And I've never really used Handcent, how does it work when you receive a message? Do you get 2 notifications? Is it possible to set Handcent as the default messaging app? How does it work?

With 5000+ messages, wouldn't you rather leave them in Gmail? At least you could use the search feature in there
Yea wouldn't it be better to save that in an archive then build it again with another app now? Of course I don't know how you could import them if the SMS applications don't support it but....

It just doesn't make sense to have 5000 text messages in that format. That's a lot of scrolling if you are trying to find a specific text message, whereas, in the Gmail app you can use keywords, such as the contact's name and whatever you were talking about and then BAM, there it is.
Using Google voice. Is there any way I can disable my text messages from going through voice and instead using stock android messaging? Its really annoying.
Sent from my Nexus S 4G using Tapatalk
Just go into the Google Voice settings and then sync and notifications. There you can disable the notifications.
do i uncheck "inbox notifications"? i already had "text messages" unchecked.
Wondering the same thing. I don 't have anything checked and everything is still routing to my GV inbox. Aggravating.
Go to www.google.com/voice
Click on Settings in the top right corner
Find your Sprint phone in the list of phones and click Edit
Toggle the check box for "Receive text messages on this phone."
(I don't know if this works or not but someone can try it )

Everything is going to be in your Google voice inbox, you can't change that. Unselect notifications in your phone's Google voice app.

This is exactly what you need to do.
I had this problem yesterday.
First, go into the Google Voice app on your phone and turn off all notifications.
Then, goto voice.google.com and change the setting Matt2053 is talking about.
Works perfect for me now.

Maybe im not understanding you, but is that not what you wanted?
You say texts are now coming to your text app, and that you are only getting notifications for the text app.
Sounds like its working normally to me.

Correct ... but on Google voice app and web site there is still a copy of the text I have received or sent to someone ...
Now my question is will there always we 2 copies as long as I have my Sprint number linked to Google voice?
If so that blows but I guess its a small price to pay...

Yes, there will always be two copies.
But honestly thats partly why i love having it integrated.
You can check your texts from your phone or your computer. You can even send texts using your number from your computer if you wanted to.
Its neat!

After linking google voice to my sprint account it says google voice is using 27% of my battery.... not cool.
I don't mind getting messages via gvoice, i'm just trying to receive messages via stock app. It just sucks having to go thru gvoice to access my texts.

You have to enable your phone to receive texts in the settings under google.com/voice. Make sure its checked. But you will be double notified, which annoys me.

I'm not using Google Voice because of this. I used to use it because of the visual voicemail and it being converted to text, but I don't want it running everything on my phone. It needs much more customization.
Hello,
I have an 3G N7 and know that it can not receive / send SMS. OK, that is what was told of.
But today I got a notification that I have a message in notification bar, opened it and it looked like a regular SMS message.
Then I tested myself, I sent a normal SMS to my tablet gsm number and received it instantly. I'm on Vodafone if that makes any sense.
Build number is JDQ39 - baseband 1231_0.17.0_1205, Kernel 3.1.10-g05b777c.
Obviously this is some app inside that handles the received message, what's the app name ? location ? at least is interesting to know that at least SMS I can receive. How can I access it ?
Best regards,
Radu
Hi, i also have the same question. Anybody knows?
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda premium
Download Go sms from store.
Google Voice works great on the N7 for sending and receiving sms, also. Sms works over wifi or data.
I maybe not beein too explicit.
I have received two SMS, regular kind, sent through my gsm carrier.
As i received them, means there is some app that recognise it and can handle the sms.
Question is, what is the app, how can i acces the messages received.
I'm aware of various solutions for sms that require to have an online account, in order to handle sms, do not want to use this kind of service.
Also, there is hack to install sms/mms apk by rooting, but, again this is not the object of my question.
I just want to check my incoming sms's for now.
Best regards,
Radu
Like mentioned above, if you install gosms or any other third party app it should allow you to view that text message that came through the carrier

Long press the notification and press "App Info" and that will tell you the name of the app.
Hello again,
Here is screenshot and detaild of the app.
As it says it receives SMS, but also can write SMS- see last line, in theory.
Question is, where can find this app. Looks to be hidden..
Sent from my Nexus 7
How to do so with stock mms.apk has already been covered here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=34282107
Right in the N7 3G dev section. XDA search function is highly recommended

Hello Rebel,
I know the MMS.APK, saw it, thank you for heads up.
My specific question is, why should I use that, if I have an app already installed. I do get SMSs from any regular gsm phone, without being necessary to create an online account for GOSMSPRO or whatever similar. The screen shot says that I might be able to send also, on my cost SMSs. No probIem, just want to find that app that handles the SMS received. Can I do that ? can I send using same app that is ALREADY installed?
thank you for patience

So it seems the 'Simple message receiver' is an app that comes with the 3g N7. Mine is just wi-fi, so I can't check, but does your app drawer have that app? If you check Settings > Apps > All, is it listed there? I have no idea how to open it if it is not in the app drawer or if you would be able to send using it anyway. Interesting that it is included in the 3G version.

Yes. As thw thread states, they are successfully receiving and sending sms from the same app over gsm, just as you would on a phone. The only difference i forsee is doing so with a dedicated data sim, or using the sim from your existing phone.
Many are using the latter, and using other apps to forward thier phone calls to the data side, and using sms normally.

Have you tried 8sms? You can raise the cap in there to 500.
Whatsapp....the internet usage is so low. On average, statistics show that you'll be able to send over 1 million 2kb messages on a 2gb data plan and unless you chat a lot, thats going to be nye impossibe to do.

Its definitely not Facebook because I use that and haven't noticed this behavior ... Although Facebook chat allows you to message SMS so you might look into that if there is an option to disable that
