Hey all.
Im trying to do something realy complicated and I havnt found a solution online yet.
What I have is my tweets from twitter being sent to my phone via my other twitter account, and I want to forward only those tweets to my friends via SMS.
I have a rough system going where i just manualy forward the tweet to a contact group with all the contacts in but Im looking for something automated.
The other problem is i reviece tweets from other users on my phone so I'd want a rule based system that only forwards tweet SMS's starting with @PTPupdates (My user name)
Hope someone can help.
Thanks in advance

If you could forward to GMail as email or to your Google Voice as SMS (using an app like PhoneLeash - tinyurl.com/phoneleashfree) maybe you can then setup some rules within GMail/GV?

Hey Folks,
I was wondering if with Handcent SMS it is possible to have group conversations. I know that you can select more than one contact to receive a particular message but is their anyway for it to host conversations. With BB(I know a shame to compare) I had an application and if I sent a text to say 5 people, all 5 people seen each others replys as the phone forwarded one persons reply to everyone else and added their name. Is their anyway to get Handcent to do this? To host like a chat, if you will. It was super handy on BB being able to text 5 people, and all 5 of us carry on a conversation.
If this is something Handcent can not do, is their any other good application recommendations?
Thank you very much,
Blaine

They claim to support group sms but like you said when people reply it goes into their own individual thread from my experience. Damn shame they can't get it working properly like on BB and iPhone.
Well as dissapointing as it is thank you for confirming it wasn't just my ignorance. Such a shame though. Have you found any alternative applications that can do it?
Thanks!

Actually I just gave up and said forget it to group sms for now. I emailed handcent but never got a reply.
That's just not cool. It would really be handy for me. Weird Handcent never replied.
OT: What year car do you have? Foxbody?
Handcent has a group sms plugin on the market. Never had a need personally but it may be what you're looking for
I've downloaded tthe plugin & well...I still haven't figured out exactly what it does lol.

after searching "handcent group sms" on the market, multiple packages showed up, so far I count 9 plugins for group SMS. I'm gonna screw with it a bit. You may need to have everybody you're texting in the group running on the same SMS client... I'll see what I can figure out with it
Hi I could really do with some advise. I suspect my 13 year old daughter is being messaged by some pervert she has been talking to online. she forgot her phone a couple of weeks ago when she went swimming and got a notification of a message on Facebook which I checked only to find what was, lets say a message no 13 should get. I have deleted all her internet settings and her MSN and facebook accounts and she wont be leaving the house for quite a while, but she is acting strange and spending lots of time texting and deleting her sent and received messages as soon as she gets them. Could really do with some form of logging software or something to put my mind at rest and either beat the living ****e out of this bloke or forward his number to the police. Need something stealthy and free or really cheap as I have reciently been made redundant and all the ones I can find are very expensive. I tried stealth sms messenger but when i tried it on my phone it just forwarded blank texts. Thanks in advance.
forgot to say its for a sensation if that makes a difference
i would suggest sms backup which archives messages onto a gmail account.
i've used it for over a year without any problems.
it works away in the background but is clearly visible within the apps list.
Thanks gascomm i will have a look and see if i can hide it some way. does it backup both sent and received?
yes, both in & outgoing messages are saved.
am afraid i haven't a clue on how to hide it but there may well be apps in the market to do such a thing. best of luck in finding a full solution.
Cheers i will sort something out, thanks again for your advise
If u use a launcher like Go EX then you can hide apps in the app drawer. Best of luck
Thanks very much I will give it a shot

SMS Backup is an amazing app. Use it all the time.
Try SMS Tracker Agent.
you can track sms messages remotely.

Hi all,
Does anyone know how to forward a message using the native gmail app on android to a group of contacts already established on gmail? I often need to forward an email to a group of employees but have found no way to do it other than logging on to gmail on the computer which isn't very efficient. I've searched quite extensively but have found no solution. It seems hard to believe - anyone know how to do it, or know of a third party app that works with gmail to do so? I'd really appreciate any response!

Well I don't know about a group. But you can add as many as you like. Just tested a mass Email to 35 people. Just open up the message. On the right hand side towards the top you'll see a star, an arrow facing left, and a triangle facing left. Press the triangle and a menu will pop up Reply, Reply All, and Foward. Then when box pops up for send to just add as many Contacts as you'd like.
Yes, that works, thanks, but then I'd have to memorize the names or emails of everyone in my group which isn't my strong point (especially for groups with lots of members)....

A backwards way of doing this, I figured out, is to copy the message text you want to forward to a group and then go into a program like Go Contacts, select the group you want, click email all, then paste the text into the email body. A bit cumbersome bit the only solution I can find. Anyone else have any other more straightforward solution? I can't believe the gmail app wont allow for this.

Has anyone tried Contact Lookup Pro for contact searching (particularly for groups) and then bulk emailing?

I use Group Contact Manager Pro application. It has option "Copy all email addresses to clipboard." which make possible to paste all group addresses into forwarded email. Maybe it is not perfect solution but at least it is a real forward displaying as such in gmail.
Hello everyone,
I recently wanted to group text with people with iphones and one blackberry and needless to say it was a disaster. I have tried both the stock messaging app and SMS go, and both fail miserably when receiving and sending texts that are in a group thread, I receive them all separately and send them all separately. Is there an app to do this?
I have a LG Nitro HD on ATT.
And yes i have tried Google and searching the forums only to find people not coming up with an answer.
Thank you so much for your help
Does your phone have an SMS mode? I know mine does. Also if it doesnt try Slate Droid forums or Android Central. Hope this helps!
What do you mean SMS mode?
bump, does no one know the answer???
I think textplus offers free group texting

I would suggest checking out Kik messenger. I haven't researched the group messaging apps in a few months, but I know Kik was always pretty good about speedy receipt of messages, and it looks like it is back on Blackberry too (it had been removed from AppWorld for a bit). Kik will also allow you to send pictures. There may be another solution or two that would also solve your problem, so search around for apps similar to kik.
Hope that helps.
How about this?:

Hey all. Sorry if this was already been asked before but I couldn't find it anywhere. Not even on google search. It seems like no one ever tried it or something.
Well, my question is, is there a way to send and receive Gmail SMS on phone? There's no way to forward it and it doesn't show up on Gtalk either. I'm asking this because it has international SMS feature that has very low cost for other countries to reply.
Does anyone know any app that can forward this feature from Gmail chat to phone? Even tho my phone support flash and java, it . Is there a work around?
Thank you,
