Hi,
I tried to send some contact information from my old Touch Diamond 2 to my mozart via sms and the message did not come..
I tried the same borrowing one of my friends iphone. This time the message came but it just said that there are media contents in the message and it cannot be displayed.
I am not sure if I have not enabled something or if the initial version of WP7 does not even accept contact information sent by other phones...
If any of you can find out a solution to it do post it as it would be nice..
Thanks

Hello all,
I do a lot of mass mailing and the best phone for that in my experience is the Nokia 9210i.
Mainly because of three things:
1. all you need to do is scroll down through the names and highlight
2. if there is a problem the 9210i will resend automaically.
3. what is great is that, it has the capability to guess the names. it can even guess an initial or a half name.
the problem with the xda is that if you send to more then one person, under the log it shows it only sent one time. therefore if one of your friends did not receive it, it will say that there was an error when sending your sms but you don't know who. plus forwarding again and again making sure all your friend receives the info is such a pain....
i am just wondering is there another sms program out there that may be better then the original...
cheers...et
In my XDA with AT&T latest ROM, I can't receive any vCard by sms! I've tried sending them from my Nokia 6310i both in single phone number and full details mode. The Nokia phone says the vCard has been sent but I don't get anything in the XDA. Sending vCards by sms to other phones obvioulsy works.
Is it just me? Is it a bug or is it a 'feature'?
thanx
PS: do you know of any XDA proggie that will receive/send vCards?
Yeah, me too. I think it must be the setting problem.
However, I don't think anyone can answer me in HK cause I am using WM2003 with ExWAP v2 (downloaded from Yoret.net).
The setting I can see from the official CSL website couldn't tell me how to set it up with my xda1.
cant claim i know what vcard really mean but google give some hits when you search on vcard pocketpc

I have never tried sending/receiving Vcards via SMS, but I have sent & received via IR.
PPC 2003 allows you to receive vCards into contacts and Calendar...however not via SMS indiginously. You need a 3rd party application to do that. If you do a search for "SMS" at either http://www.pocketgear.com or http://www.handango.com you will find the app I'm talking about. Cant remember what its called though, easy to find click through all the pages. :wink:
Thanks for your answers. All soft I have found just manages the vCards stored in the PocketPC. Some let you even send them through email. But I have not found any program that emulates Nokia phone's capabilities of receiving an specially crafted SMS with the vCard inside.
I find interesting is the fact that when you send an sms with an vCard inside from a Nokia phone to another phone (without vCard funcionality), it displays the message in raw format:
BEGIN:VCARD
VERSION:2.1
N:John
TEL;WORK;VOICE:5551234567
END:VCARD
However, my XDA I (WindowsCE 2003) silently ignores such sms while it's happy to receive regular ones!!!
This vCard through SMS capability is probably Nokia-specific... it would ne nice if some one implemented it for PocketPC devices. I'm sure there's a market for it!
there doesnt appear to be anything in search relating to this so here goes.......
.....im getting sick of htc changing so many features and settings on this phone everytime they release an update. ive got another issue now. not mentioning the dozen ive managed to sort myself in the last day or so.
my text messages are now all over the place. if i recieve a message i hit the message icon on the scroll bar and it opens. reply and then close. normal situation. however. when i want to send another message to the same person either by opening their contact info or hitting the message icon and finding the conversation there is no info at all. wtf!!!
if i go to all messages i get a list of all recipients and the last message either sent or recieved but when i click on that person to reply the entire conversation, 1,2 10, 100 messages that are in brackets next to their name are nowhere to be seen. ive tried removing contact pictures, deleting numbers and attaching them to the contact when a message comes in. no luck. been through the messaging settings, cant find anything else to check or uncheck to resolve this situation. ive no contacts on my sim card just the phone.
cheers. i do need to know if its a general thing with this rom or is my phone just playing up? anyone else noticed this? communications is a big part of messaging and as all phones nowadays seem to be able to record and display conversations with each contact i find it hard to believe htc suddenly decided to bin the idea.
anyone got any suggestions as to how i recover this option as i cant be asked to remember the last few messages of every conversation i have. not to mention important information that i cant access if i cant pull up more than one previous message!
I have the new stock Rom 3.14, and I haven't encountered anything like you've described here. What application did you use to restore the backed-up messages after you flashed the ROM?
fixed this. i had installed a cab recently which disables the annoying 'sent message successfully' notification. but this was also causing the above mentioned problem. unistalling the cab means ive got my conversations back and all contacts/messages link properly. see here for all info and further links... http://www.htchd2forum.com/general-htc-hd2-discussion/more-hatred-for-new-3-14-rom-(conversations)/
okay! 1st of all let me tell that I am a old win 6 and 6.5 user. Just in July, switched to the world of Android. But still expecting few things as that of my old windows mobile. These are maybe in my new phone but I failed to get it work even I tried lots of googlings!
Well I am a college student so I mostly use group messaging. In frayo I can send 20 per time but now in Gingerbread it's limited to 10. Well it's not the issue. My main issue is the threads. Whenever I send msgs to group it creates a separate group. In my win mobile the grp msgs were getting categories as a conversation with the individual in that grp.
Is there any setting or any app that can place the sent msgs to the respected buddies conversation thread instead of being at one place.
Even is there any way to find out whom I msged in the grp messaging?? Because when I send 10 sms once a time it doesn't show any details except 1st few names of the grp members. So is there any way to find out to whom I msged??
I hope you guys are getting my question.
Waiting for reply.
Regards,
Adwait
I think, GO Sms could help you. New message-> + contacts -> Group - there u can check your buddy's grup. U have to have defined that group before that U can do this via pc (www.google.com/contacts) or on your phone via some contacts manager.
You don't even need to define a group, in fact. You can check the contacts you wanna send it to. After that, once sent, the messages will be posted into individual contact's threads.
Downlod whatsapp with group message
Sorry if there was a thread of this, but I couldn't find an existing one. Anyways, I am able to send texts and receive them. But when I try texting this one contact, it ALWAYS says unable to send, yet I am able to receive texts from him. Does anyone know why its doing this and how to fix it? Thanks!
Check the contact card for the person to see if there is anything different in there compared to other contacts that do work (such as a default number that's not a mobile)
Are you replying to a received text or sending a new one from scratch ?
Does calling the person work ?
I tried to text him first a bunch of times, but all came out as "cannot send text". Then I told him to text me just to see it works/if I have the right number, I received a text from him. So I tried to reply back, still I get "cannot send text".
Sorry and what do you mean compare the contact card? I'm new to smartphones still.
