[Q] SMS and MMS from my computer - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I would like to be able to write SMS and MMS from my computer instead of directly on my Galaxy S4.
There are many programs, but I have not been able to find one where I can send MMS.
MightyText have the option to attach a file, but the message and the file will never reach the recipient.
Seeking proposals for programs that can send SMS and MMS via computer.

MMS database after upgrade to SE

Before the upgrade to SE I was still using MMS that wasn't integrated into outlook. Having upgraded to SE, all new MMS I receive are visible in my MMS inbox, but none that I have received in the past. They are in the correct directory.
Am I right in assuming then that they are not listed in the MMS inbox data file?
Is there any solution to this problem - I have some quite important MMS on my phone that are currently accessible only using resco Explorer - and this invovles finding an MMS without being able to see the subject - I have about 150 mms to choose from.
Thanks in advance!

[Q] Important Texts Won't Copy; Please Help

I have a Samsung Galaxy Prevail the model number is SPH-M820-BST and I am having some serious problems with my phones ability to copy SMS text messages to my computer or send them to my e-mail. I am having some problems with my land lord and I am trying to get a record of the text messages that she sent me but they are not copying properly, all of the messages copy except for a couple of really long important ones that she sent.
These are the programs that I have tried so far, SMS to text, Super Backup, SMS Backup+ (e-mailed to my gmail), SMS backup & restore. All of these programs have the exact same problem where they copy most of my texts except for a couple of the same really long ones that she sent. One thing I noticed is that for some reason my text messages are usually limited to 200 max per contact but for her its now at 207.
These text messages are really important for me to get my security deposit back and chances are I'm going to have to use them in small claims. I've tried everything to no avail, maybe I should use screen capture software? Or maybe even put my phone into a photo copy machine?
Does anyone know what I can do to fix this? Any help would be much appreciated, thanks.
Does anyone know of any screen capture software I could use?

Handling VCards via MMS - FIX!

I've been searching forever for an app that will handle Vcards sent to my S3 via a Blackberry or iPhone. The MMS comes in blank on my text app (8ms messsaging) or even stock messaging app, but there's no way to view the vcard attachment.
Enter "Save MMS Attachemtns" app.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mobappli.savemms
Opening it brings up a list of all of your MMS messages within your text threads. The interface isn't very advanced and I haven't played with it enough to be able to select just one MMS, but regardless...clicking save will export all MMS to a folder on your phone entitled "SaveMMS"
From there, you'll need to delete the extra extension text after ".vcf"
Now click on it to open with your vcard handler app. I use DW Dialer as it's way better than stock Google dialer. It takes 8 seconds to respond after clicking, but it will import to your contacts.
This is far from an elegant fix, but if you receive vcards for work like me, you need something that will work, no matter how involved.
If anyone has a better way, let us know but a big thanks to the dev for writing this.
I've created app that handles vCards and it is capable of importing vCards from MMS. It's not free but I hope it's worth the price. Search for bizCard Manager.
Let me know what do you think.

Messaging App

Need help with finding a messaging app that works the way I want it to. I just recently updated my note 2 to 5.1. My old messenger App allowed me to send a text to multiple recipients without it being a group text. I find group texts to be highly annoying. I have tried about 20 apps on 5.1 and I have found that all of them but the verizon app make it so whenever you send a picture it automatically converts it into a group MMS messenger. On verizon you have to manually change it every time. So my question is if there is a way to send picture messages as solo texts to multiple recepients. Is their an app that will allow me to do that by default.
I have turned off settings such as send as MMS etc. The issue is picture messages are already MMS and therefore that setting does not affect it and it still sends as group.
Please help.
i typically want mine to send out as a group so never checked this on my current sms app.. but right now i'm using Textra. Has all the features I want and is very stable and reliable.

LG V30+ text and Music upload from PC

I have a problem with my new Sprint LG V30+.
1. The issue is with the text group messages. My contacts are from Gmail account which have several groups already set up. When I try to send a group message I go to address book and select groups, then from the pull down menu I should have been able to select Send Group Message, but the option is not there. I am only able send the group text if I select members individually from texting app. I did not have this problem on LGG3 or Galaxy s6 and S8.
2. I am unable to sync music from PC via USB or any other way. I had no problem with getting photos back. The USB access was set correctly to media transfer.
I wonder if this is a software problem or I am doing something wrong?
Thanks
