i installed handcent and i like it but i have 1 problem with it when i try and text my wife it will not send but i can send texts to her on stock sms. I can send texts to anyone one else in handcent any ideas?
thanks
p.s how do you delete a app?
I haven't run into that problem with handcent. Here is how you delete the app:
-menu
-settings
-applications
-manage applications
-scroll down and select handcent sms
-select uninstall
iam still havin this problem i deleted her contact info then put it back and it worked for 5 texts and stoped but i did notice something but dont know how to fix.
When i look at list of texts everyone else i send just show there name on hers is name then phone number like this sue <1-123-123-1234> when it comes up that way i cant text her anymore how do i stop this
check all your contacts, you may have her number attached to another contact. if you sync your contacts to google, use google contacts on your browser to check this (it'll be easier)
i did check that but i will look again the funny thing is after i redid her contact info it worked for 5 texts then stoped

Right, I'm at my whit's end.
I've added contacts to my new Desire, and managed to link them with their respective FaceBook profiles. The thing is, i now want to send a group text message, and the primary message method is via e-mail. I don't want to send an e-mail, i want to text their phone number. I can't seem to find anything which will change it so that an SMS is primary and e-mail is secondary.
Any ideas on that one? I know i can send a single message, but that isnt what i want to do, i want to highlight any contact i wish and have it automatically send an SMS, and not an e-mail.
Also, when sending a message, is there any way to filter the contacts down to just those with phone numbers OR e-mail instead of having a massive amalgamated list of Facebook, Twitter, Google and Phone contacts?
Any help will be hugely appreciated!
hi did you get anywhere with this - esp your last point - must be something obvious ?!
Nope, got nowhere. I can't find any option or anything anywhere to do this. Ive just decided to try and live with it.
If I understood well..when you type in a new message and click in recepients, then the list with your contacts pops up. But, in mine at least, every contact that has a phone number and an email, has 2 records, one with the mail and one the phone number, only to let you choose what you want. Although in contacts list, have one all together.
it shows me:
nikos <[email protected]>
nikos <+000>
etc...
I have the same system as well. The issue i'm raising is when you have say, 350 Facebook contacts and 200 Gmail contacts, and you want to send a message, you have to scroll through every contact to get to the one you want.
I want to know if there's a way to filter the contacts to say "Mobile Numbers Only" or "Email Only" when you're trying to select a (many) recepient(s) for a message.

If i look at the SMS messages i can see "Me" who send the messages without a picture. Then i also see a picture of somebody whe send me an SMS.
I think me = ugly and i want to set it to a new person ( my exchange data where i am present). Is there a way to link that ME to an outlook account that's actually me ?
I tried doing this by selecting on 'ME' from the SMS conversation; this brings up 'My contact card' but it is just forever loading and nothing appears.
Yep and what i would like to is to link that to myself in the Exchange contacts. I hope this is possible. The trick is how ?
Hi xda-developers,
I've got a strange problem. As of last night I have had two problems.
First, it seems that my outgoing SMS messages are no longer saved. Well at least they aren't visible in the threaded SMS conversations and I can't find them anywhere. They do go through to the recipients, I can confirm. Also, I do get incoming SMS in the conversations just fine.
Second, it seems that Gmail is no longer syncing anything. If I go into Gmail and hit sync manually, the sync icon appears for just a couple seconds, then goes away having failed to download any new messages.
Anyone have any thoughts?
Cheers,
Paul Thompson
On the Epic's Messaging app, I noticed if I type on the "To:" field none of my facebook contacts show up at all. But then i go to the actual Contacts app and click on their contact and it has the message option. If I click it, It'll send the message and everything but instead of showing their name in the thread it just shows the phone number.
The only fix I've had so far is re add the number and link it to their facebook. But It would take too long to do that for all contacts.
Any way of fixing this?
I have a problem with names of contacts not showing up.
I have my contacts synced with google contacts. There the numbers are in the format 1234567. When the contacts phone me I can see their names OK but when they send me a text I get instead +3541234567 and no name.
I've googled around and this seems to be hitting some people but no concrete solution suggested.
android 4.1 messaging sms or chompSMS from Market
This is my solution use android 4.1 messaging sms from the market and wait for the developper to make it better same thing was happening with me i would like to share my experience with you for you to skip the steps that i have done : Most of the contacts names are not showing in the stock messages,i receive the msg with the phone number with the country code without a name although the name is in my contact list, i did a hard reset and stopped facebook even didn't sync facebook contacts at all, i added country code with the + to the numbers but it was worst because i was seeing the names in sms but only numbers when i receive a call, i deleted the contacts then imported them to my google account and the same file to outlook on my laptop then synced them all meaning the same contacts without any conflict but with no luck, i added to the location to the addesses with the country on both google account and outlook also with no luck, GOsms and handcent did the same thing but it worked with chompSMS and android 4.1 messaging sms from the market but this is not what i want, i like to use the stock messeges app; frankly this is driving me crazy

There is a silly solution that i tested and it's working, you need to add new e-mail to your contacts the number of the contact sure with the + and the country code and it will work that makes no sense but it works and imagine doing this to all contacts but i did it to some contacts who text me often.
