Hi i was just wondring if anyone can tell me how i can get the senders name of the SMS to come up in the SMS inbox rather than just there phone number. Its really annoying when you get a text message and the phone number comes up and not the name of the person who sent it.
install this

is it possible to send a text message as restricted?
Restricted to what? The sender? Who else would receive it except the sender you specified?
just the recipient. just like a restricted call. *67 blocks your number from caller id. is there a way to block your number from a text message so it shows up on the recipients phone as 'unknown' or 'restricted'?
go to a website that can send a txt message and dont put your number in?
Oh you mean, hidden sender.
There was an app to do that awhile back, but certainly not in the native SMS app on the phone.
I would just use www.vtext.com

heck yes i am. minus the fact that if i send a restricted text that means i cant put a call back number on it. the reason i first thought of it was because some kid was bothering my little sister, and i wanted to message the kid without him getting my number. but i ended up calling him anyways
Do you have an idea why some of my SMS conversation show the number instant of the contact ?
I even tried to create a NEW conversation using the contact, as soon as the SMS is sent, the contact is gone and I only see the number.
Both the working and the non-working have the same number format xxx-xxx-xxx
Thanks!
Just an update.
When I receive a new SMS from the non-working user, the notification bar show his name, but in the SMS, it still only show the number.
Tried to update contact to x-xxx-xxx-xxxx or (xxx) xxx-xxxx or x (xxx) xxx-xxxx ... still not working...
I tried to erase the contact and re-create it from the "Create contact" option with-in the SMS... samething !
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.

Hello!
I have this weird problem with my Galaxy SII that I can't reply to some contacts SMS. I've noticed that in theese cases the sendres phone number is like this: ,+XXX XXX XXX notice the "," before the numbre. And the phone says; Invalid recipients entered.
I can reply by makeing new message and adding the contacts number again and the thread is showing ut niceliy but I can't reply directly.
It only heappens to few certain contacts.
Any ideas?

So the actual problem is "," . When you are sending SMS to two contacts, then your format should be like :
+XXX XXX XXX,+XXX XXX XXX [Notice the "," between the numbers]
For sending to a single contact :
+XXX XXX XXX ie. You don't need any "," , while sending SMS to a single contact .
Hope this solves your problem . :laugh:
I can't delete the "," that's the problem. Its just there. Its not in my contact profile, it's in the sms application. Please see added picture.
If I compose the text and push send it says Invalid recipients entered
If I go to new message-> add recipient and find the same contact from my phone book then I can send the SMS eventually but that pretty annoiyng.
