For the life of me I can not remeber the correct domain for sending a SMS message from an email client. example if I wanted to send a friend a text message from my computer that is on the Tmobile network it would be [email protected][b]Tmomail.net[/b]? Is that correct?
TIA
To send SMS messages from the XDA (less than 160 chars) just input "+1" plus the 10 digit USA phone number only.
Say from my XDA, I want to SMS my friend whose mobile number is (219) 555-5555 the number I would enter into the "To" field is +12195555555.
That is all that is needed for the XDA.
If I am at my desktop PC, I start a new email message with the following in the "To" field.
[email protected]
You are still under the SMS 160 char limit for this method as well.
One more thing, when using Pocket Inbox on the XDA (for real email not SMS) with T-Mobile, be sure your SMTP server is myemail.t-mobile.com ; otherwise outgoing mail will not be sent when connected using T-Mobile GPRS as your network connection.
FYI,

PS: Although I haven't tried this, for international SMS you should be able change the country code from "+1" for USA to +"X" where X is the country code.
For some reason my SMS only works it I do not enter the + sign in front of the number!
I managed to send an international SMS with no problem, using country, city code and number.

I have downloaded the SMS fix so that it recognises the names of messages which works ok, but i cannot send messages to anyone without knowing their number. In my sms contacts list there are no names etc. I have imported my contact details from the SIM with appears properly in the phone contacts box, buti cannot use the same contact details to send SMS's.
Also, i am trying to set up an internet connection using a normal ISP through a standard GSM phone call. I do not pay for GPRS connections cos its so expensive, but I do have data calls enabled on my account with T-mobile. I have made data calls before using a nokia 7650 as a modem, but i cannot use the XDA to make a GSM data call to the same ISP. Also, it seems to send me odd network SMS's saying 'please delete' every time i try to connet to the ISP. Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.
Anyone had a problem of unable to send email eventhough you can receive ok? This is driving me nuts! I read in the XDA II page under product info/known limitations that this is normal first time sending email. They claim to just ignore the error messages and re-click on the "send and receive" icon - it should work fine afterwards.. But it DID NOT worked fine I am still unable to send emails. Receiving is ok.
Anyone out there with any insights ?
mailbox incoming/outgoing setup is fine. sheesh..
How is your network carrier?
regardless of who you use for your email account, ensure that if you are using the O2 Mobile Web service that your Sendmail server is set to smtp.o2.co.uk
I'm not too technical but I think 1 of my mail accounts requires a different login to send mail which you cant setup on the XDAII. Maybe...
How do I see from which number a Text Message (SMS) was send?
Here is the problem: A friend of mine wend abroad and is using a different mobile phone number. I saved the new number in the contact file under "Home2 phone". Now, if I recieve a text message I actually dont see were it came from, do I?
(Even after clicking on the Message it opens the contact but shows the mobile phone number, not the one it was send from.)
Thanks for anwser
When receiving the message, all you can see is the name of the sender.
When you click on the contact, it shows you only the mobile phone number because, theoretically you can receive sms messages only from mobile phone numbers. A stationary phone number cannot be used to send sms
Torque77: Wrong. You CAN either send and receive SMS from fixed lines in most EU countries. And Rose can handle it without any problems.
Gipo: Just hit Enter when the received message is selected. Contact card will open with proper sender's phone number highlighted. BTW in threaded messages is enough if you just simply hit "Reply" - it will be sent automatically to correct number. (In fact, every number - even different number of the same contact - creates a new thread).
EDIT: OOPS, you're right. It just shows the card without highlighting the number (having a look I saw a last call, not the message). Then only way is direct reply in the thread then. Nevertheless, it's simple and reliable.

Sorry then. Guess Moldova is waaaay behind and this chapter.
No problem... Just an reminder. Nevertheless, you can't be sure, if it is a phone able to receive it (again - some operators forwards SMS as a voice message then).
At least at the moment you already know, that Rose can send SMS on ANY phone number stored with contact - if you have somebody e.g. with more mobile phones.
Yes, if you just choose a contact in the list and select "SMS" by right-left arrows, the mobile number is used. But if you hit Enter in Addresse field in empty SMS form, select an user, Rose will show you all available phone numbers for the contact and is able to send the message at any of them.
thanks guys
I have a 3G galaxy 10.1. I have a simcard tied to my mobile number, two sim cards one number. I can do all the normal data stuff okay but would like to send and receive text messages on the tablet as well as the phone. I'm sure I need an SMS AP but cannot even locate a default program. The tablet has an email and web browser client but I cannot identify what I use to send an sms.
Thanks
On mine it's the messaging app.
My Galaxy Note II can receive and send phone calls, I can use data over the 3 network and I can receive texts, but I cannot SEND texts.
My Note II is rooted, unlocked and running Jelly beans rom V5 on the 3 network in Scotland on a pay as you go SIM card. The SIM card works in my other UK phone (unlocked Nexus S), i.e. I can send texts when it's in the Nexus.
I have never been able to send texts with the 3 SIM card in the Note II, (as in this isn't something that was working and stopped, it never worked). My note II was able to send texts when it was on the Verizon SIM in the states.
After I send a text, the "view message info" screen show it as sending to a +44 number and says sent. Several hours later (after the recipient in question never receives the text) I get a text from +441144 (then recipients number) with a message stating " Your text - to - speech message to 01144 (number of recipient) has been rejected by recipient phone."
Calling my +44 contacts works just fine.
I have no idea how to fix this issue. Does anyone have any ideas/ similar issues with their Verizon note II abroad ?
Thank you for your help and time
Using rooted Verizon phone to text on UK three network
I had the exact same problem, three network, using a Verizon S3 with synergy ROM and a hacked APN (as Verizon would not allow APN to be added), I guess you figured that bit out? Using APN Manager Pro running as a system app as set by Titanium Backup Pro.
You also have to make sure you have all the right APN settings, this was done to make DATA work on the phone.
Now the problem you describe is exactly what we had, it's the format of your phone numbers in your contact list, for UK numbers while in the UK, you DO NOT use the +44 or 44... just enter the number as normal 0745 xxx xxx etc... and that fixes the problem. Btw It's quicker to log into your gmail account and edit all of your phone numbers in there, presuming you use Gmail to sync your contacts and not verizon backup as that won't work over here when off their network.
This does cause another problem though, if you happen to use Viber, then viber will not see the contact, so what you do for that is add ANOTHER entry in the same contact, so I use the WORK field, and you enter +44 745 ... you must have the + in there and you must drop the zero, this way normal text works using the MOBILE entry in UK format, and Viber can see the contact in thge WORK entry... all appears to work doing this.
I know it's off topic and you may not use viber, but if you do, then your USA contacts would have to change your phone book entry to +44 745 xxxxxx again including the + and international country code and they can then see you as a viber contact. To see my USA contacts I changed my entries to +1 xxx xxx xxxx, so an orlando number might be +1 407-999-9999 then Viber can see the contact, just use multiple entries within the same contact, there are plenty of fields available.
Hope all of this helps, took some time to figure it all out

I'm having this problem too, on a Samsung Galaxy Stratosphere 2 that I imported from America (it's got a slide-out keyboard, we don't have them over here), also rooted and running on the three network.
I've changed all my +447 contacts to 07 but texts only send successfully when I start a new conversation and pick the 07 recipient. When they text me back the number at the top changes to +447 again and I can't reply without starting a new conversation.
Any tips?
possible workaround
I've installed Handcent to replace the stock sms app and it seems to be working well so far. As far as I can tell, replies are successful and the number doesn't default to +44
