[Q] Bulk SMS Sender - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello everyone,
does anyone now of a free bulk SMS sender? The tools I've found online don't have the feature to upload number list from a csv or list file. The following tools I have tried:
BizTexter most promising but far to expensive
BulkSMS-RISP Was the solution unfortunately the app doesn't work when trying to import a text file
MultiTexter - On XDA No option to import from text file
TextBlaster - WOuld have bought the subscription but no option to import list from text file
Multi SMSSender 2 no option to import from textfile or CSV
Group SMS Texter no option to import from textfile or CSV
Multi Text no option to import from textfile or CSV
Mass Text Orignal no option to import from textfile or CSV
GroupText no option to import from textfile or CSV
Anyone know any other? Tried with Airdroid but it keeps on hanging the browser {unresponsive script}. The web base client can't handle it. Will try with the desktop client and I really hope it doesn't hang .

Try the new service semysms. The best solution for you! :good:

Link to outlook contact - possible?

I'd like to create a link to an Outlook contact for iPhonetoday or similar.
I have spent a good 30 mins searching and found nothing that will open a contact from a shortcut.
Any ideas on if such a thing exists or if not how I should start making a solution?
I do not want to dial a contact directly, or send an sms. I just want the contact record to open so I can choose what to do with it.
Thanks.
Hi littld
I did some search time ago for a contact to be dialed with a shortcut and created it with one of Vijay's tools, I understand that's not what you want. I think it's possible with some experimenting, I'll look for it
Found something:
Create a shortcut (to any thing), Then locate it with Total commander, long press>properties>shortcut tab and erase all from "Target". Write instead: "cprog.exe" -to "name of contact" and save. You just have to rename the shortcut to the person name and place it where you want it. The shortcut will open the dialer with the name ( providing you copied the "name of contact" as is in the contact list. Touching the name will open all possibilities.
I hope this will help

[Q] How to import messages from Nokia 5130 inbox.

Hi Guys, just bought the LG P500 and this being my first Android phone I'm all excited. I just wanted to know how to import all the messages from the inbox of my old phone (Nokia 5130) to this one. I tried to export the messages in .csv format from Nokia pc suite and tried to import it via LG pc suite but it keeps saying import failed. Anyone has any idea how to solve the issue?
Still waiting for any help guys...
Search for csv apps on the market or copy the messages to the SIM card.
It's been a while and I don't remember exactly how I did it but I used Microsoft Outlook. Google it, you should get a lot of hits.
Thanks guys for showing interest and helping me out. I did find a way to do it and it is quite simple. Just google this - "435293-how-import-messages-nokia-5130-inbox" and follow the steps. Sorry I wasn't allowed to paste the exact web address here.
This is a ready reckoner for all those who are looking to restore their messages into their new device. Any information spread wisely only helps people. So let's keep it that way, thanks to all.

Change default application for action "Adress" in contact app

How can i change the default application for the use of the contactadress in cm7?
If i touch the adress, then maps Starts. I want to start an other app. How Can i change IT?
Sent from my HTC Desire using Tapatalk
maybe you dont understand me.
If u go into your contacts, to hold your finger on the "adress" information, then the system will show you some possibilities, to choose it for some applications.
For example: I have installed a Bus+Train-App. instead of typing the adres letter by letter you just have to go into the contacts and click on the stored adress, to import it in the "bus+train" application.
some time ago i could choose this "export"-possibility. but now i could only choose the application of googlemaps....where i can export the contact-adress-information to navigate to the adres.
how can i change the default options to export for example the adres to an application, i wish?

How can I edit contacts in batch?

Hello, I must edit all my contacts to remove area code. My new mobile carrier doesn't support it. I've tryed export it from google to csv -dos, csv outlook. Then I edited with Excel and removed the numbers, but when I try to import it, everything went wrong, without any configuration/
Does someone know any app that to this job? Or someone know how must I proceed? Thank you !
hey
why don't you define in excel maximum digits as the length of your numbers?
for example if you have this number stored:
Eytan
10123456789 (1 is the area code)
execute in excel so it saves the last 10 digits so it'll apear like this:
Eytan
0123456789
you should limit the numbers of characters in a cell.
i actually don't remember the exact steps but i'm sure you could find it with search, it should shorten your "work".
good luck !
You should be able to export from Google as CSV edit in Excel then reload as CSV
actually I tried all those things, and when I try to export it again to google, I lost the previous settings.
I found a brasilian app "operadora DDD" and it does the job! It´s in portuguese, but u can acess the app, then UNCHECK "ativar", and press menu on your phone. U must chose "alterar agenda", click on the number and try every option. when u check some box, the number change showing your choice (with/out " ( ) ", "-", "+" etc)

I used to use Contacts Clean-up by Peter Baldwin, but that is not compatible with newer versions of Android. If you have access to an older phone, you could use that to edit them and then resync to the new phone. That's probably what I'm going to do tomorrow...
hmm, this is interesting and yet frustrating. I'm also in need to edit my contacts in batch, especially to change the area code and include a country code, but it seems that the .csv that I've edited cannot be read by google contacts.
anybody can get around with this?

[Q] Export contacts with full info - vcard 3.0 - ZERO application found

Hello all, please help, i'm going slightly mad - running KK and trying to export some contacts using the stock export function in contacts - problem is that the generated vcf is in 2.1 format. This is not good, the export lost some info, such as custom labels of phone numbers.
Then I tried to found an app on the market that does that - not ONE have i found. All of them either do the export in 2.1 format; or they backup on the cloud; or send the contacts by mail; or use proprietary format.I just want to backup my contacts with all the info on my sdcard and be able to restore them.
what's strange is that the stock import contacts knows how to read 3.0 vcards and that I was able to do this thing I'm looking so hard now on my ancient SGS1 running GB.
Now, is it a conspiracy, or something? Please, help.
Please, can someone help me?
To recap - I want to backup and then restore offline my contacts. The problem is that custom labels of phone numers are lost - if I have a contact with a number labeled as "challet no.", this label will be replaced by "home" label at a restore.
Please, help.
Please, somebody have at least some ideas? I find very strange the fact that this basic functionality is broken .
Some corrections:
- there was a typo - it's not KK, it's JB running on a Note 3
- only custom labels of the phone numbers which contain blanks (at least) are not saved
What puzzles me is that nobody reported this problem, and of course the fact that an old GB release is able to better handle the backup/restore functionality.

Same boat here. Using proprietary vCard format 3.0 and trying to do the inverse way from you. I'd like to backup the VCF files locally to regularly import them into my Android devices. The problem is that apparently Android 4.2.2 can only handle vCard 2.1 properly. I have found NO solution so far since there seems to be no software or app that convert between the two formats - vCard 2.1 <=> vCard 3.0, without data loss. I believe that reason for this is that everybody just uses Cloud services nowadays and support for local data exchange in general is neglected or non-existent!!!
In case you find any solution for your problem please let me know. Any information would be welcome!
UPDATE: I spent again a lot of time playing with my vCard 3.0 files yesterday and I finally found a way to format them in a way that Android accepts them as contact imports without errors. By using a text editor - UltraEdit, and some simple JavaScript scripts to batch process all my 434 contact entries I basically made the following 4 adjustments:
- Remove all unnecessary entries included by my proprietary contact application - Lotus Notes
- Include a line breaks before the "PHOTO" line
- Remove all line breaks that occurred when a entry value was too long and broken into multiple lines
- Remove all semi-colons in the "ADR" line
I hope this helps!
