Dumb question, but wondering if it's possible to text imported contacts. Don't want skype or fring, just standard texting over wifi.
You can send SMS text messages using Google Voice. If installed, it shows up as an option in contacts.
Thanks didn't look at google voice sms!
BTW, found anther way to sms from the flyer. Go to the market and get syncSMS. It's $2.99. Then get Dropbox, which is free. I put syncSMS on my nexus and it syncs both inbox and outbox from the phone to the tablet!
Have all original sent/received sms on the phone, even though the entire conversation took place on the tablet
Try TexTab Lite. Install it on your tablet and Android phone, start Textab on both, configure and connect devices with Bluetooth.
When phone received message, it will forward it using BT to tablet. You can view and reply directly on tablet your phobe will take care of sending.

Anyone who used Windows Phone 7 probably seen the way default Text Messeging app integrates with Facebook and WLM
is tere something like that for Android ?
an app tha would work with your contact list, if you want to send a message to a contact it would tell you if person is Online on Facebook or WLM if not then send a text.
or Show if a contact availible on FB or WLM in Text Messaging app

Yeah the Facebook messaging app does it and Facebook Chat Heads will soon. Also, so will this app in the next few updates https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ninja.sms
I have several contacts with several phone numbers between mobile, home, office, work, fax, etc... whenever I want to send a text to any of those contacts and i type their name in the To: field, it lists all their numbers every time and i have to scroll down and select the mobile number.
this doesn't happen in windows phone, where the sms app only lists the contact's mobile number, and it only shows you the contact's numbers twice if the contact has more than one mobile number.
also, in windows phone you can create a group of contacts and then you can send a text to the entire group and it knows to select only their mobile numbers and you can do this from the sms app by typing the group name in the To: field. I have tried creating groups on the Note, but when i have tried to text that group typing the name of a group on the To: field does nothing, it is as if it didn't exist.
And don't get me started on not having group sms like in iphone and windows phone.... does anyone know how to enable this feature without having to install a new app for a new service and either getting a new number for that service or having to get your contacts on that service (whatsapp or skype or kik or any of those) i want to send group messages from my phone, like i could do with my windows phone and my friend do with their iphones...

You can turn off the notifications for stock SMS and make go or handcent default.

I remembered what was the other reason I didn't line go SMS, it didn't keep the unread messages count visible like the stock SMS app does...

So, going third-party is still the only way to restrict/view only mobile numbers? (GS3 v4.1.2)
I am looking for an email app that supports HTML signatures. I would like to send emails from my work email but have it appear like it was sent from my desktop, and not my mobile phone. I can't seem to get an app to support my full signature, it only sends in plain text.
right now I'm using MyPhoneExplorer to send sms messages to my clients with a meeting reminder by using my Autohotkey macro taking mobile phone number and clients name from Excel, and sending console command to MyPhoneExplorer which sends a message.
The problem is I'd like to check if all those messages are correct BEFORE SENDING. I think it could be achieved by saving drafts but such feature is not included in MyPhoneExplorer. can I use any other free method? any other software with such feature?
