I've made a small application which adds a group of contacts as recipients to the existing messaging application. If you start the application from the start menu it will create a new SMS message for you. If you start it from the messaging menu it will update the already created SMS message. This makes it possible to forward received messages to a group.
As this is an extension of the original messaging application, all messages will be saved in the Sent Items folder.
Changelog and more information can be found at my website: http://www.shubaroo.com/index.php?module=group_sms
The application will run on both Pocket PC's and SmartPhones with Windows Mobile 5.0 and above. Never tested on older devices, so it might work on them too
It supports MUI and can easily be translated to any language. Currently english and norwegian is supported.
Please give me feedback if you experience any problems.
To download, please visit my homepage at: http://www.shubaroo.com/index.php?module=group_sms
Here are some screenshots:
GREAT!
works like a charm!THX!
dis application is much better, starts faster than the one other thread
Hi,
I'm still using version 1.3. I don't know if you remember my mail from then.
This is a part of it:
"Do you think it’s possible to add a group of contacts that’s in my SIM-list?
I mean, if I select the box All Contacts, only the contacts saved in Outlook are visible, not the ones on my SIM-card.
If not I can always save all my SIM-contacts to the Contacts in Outlook, but then my contact list is growing so big and a lot of double phone numbers are showing up."
MANY THNX to you
really this GROUP SMS is come to solve a big problem in PPC which is sending message to more than one.
NOW by using you GROUP SMS i can remove other silly program that try to send to many but big , not embeded in the options of message like yours
thnx again and again

make sure that there is at least one groupe (catergory)
Group SMS can't add a group at the moment. It can only read the Outlook categories. I will probably implement functionallity to add, remove and edit groups in a later release.
I recommend you all to upgrade to version 1.4.1. Some users found a small bug when contacts are member of more then one group. I forgot to reset a string before I used it again and this can cause the application to show a group multiple times with some strange characters.
The new cab file can be found in the first post of this thread.

I gave this app a try. First thing I noticed is that it wiped out the Mark All As Read and Delete All menu extensions. Unfortunately, these two options are much more useful than a group sms. Great work anyway and maybe you can find a compromise.
I will certainly look into that! Which device are you running on? Is the Mark All As Read and Delete All menu extensions a part of the ROM or have you installed it?
Nice app.
thank you
thank you very much for this app!!! i was looking for this for decades!!! great work dude!

I have
htc p3300
with B&B 3.7
and net V2 installed.
I have more than 1500 contacts divided in 10 categories.
when I try to use groupsms I get the first screen with preselection of groups (cateories)
I do chech one or various, then next.
Some seconds later I get just one, two and mostly nothing of contacts to check.
Where the problem comes from?
I used it with just one category and 200 contacts and haddn´t any problem ( has the program mem limitations?
Thank you for your great job
Hi everyone,
I've noticed something since I updated my phone to kitkat 4.4.2 (it's a Z1 compact).
Whenever I use another app than my default app to send SMS, eg. I'm using SMSPopup, Glowfly or event another "real" SMS app along with my default one (let's say hangouts or Handcent), I have duplicate sent SMS, that means I have twice my sent messages in my list. I didn't have this issue on JB.
I tried to tweak access/read/write permissions via AppOps but the result is still the same. I now have to use the same app for popups/Notifications and SMS. Other SMS apps are useless because they duplicate the text messages.
Does anyone has the same problem ? How can I fix this ?
Thanks a lot !

Make sure this is set correctly:
1. From your home screen, open Settings and head into “More…” under Wireless & Networks.
2. If running Android 4.4, you should see an option for “Default SMS app.”
3. Tap on that.
4. A window should appear with all apps that could be a potential SMS app.
5. Tap the one you want to use.

Sorry for a late answer and hope you get, or maybe you've already gotten, the issue resolved.
Hey guys. I've been using my Redmi 3 Pro for quite some time now and I love this device. My only complaint is that when I used MIUI 7 or 8 (doesn't matter which ROM ) I can never send picture messages to others when I use Google's Messenger App and I allowed all the permissions for Google Messenger so it would work properly. I even rebooted to make sure but no luck. My pictures are sent only through MIUI's stock messaging app. Personally, I prefer Google Messenger over MIUI Messenger and since I was never able to figure out why this issue was being caused, I flashed over to nehz's CM12.1 ROM so I can have Google Messenger. I have provided pictures underneath my post to show you guys what it looks like and hopefully someone can help. Thanks.
Hi I have an issue with my mate 10 pro in whatsapp and instagram when I take a picture with the flash to a close object the photo will be pitch black or sometimes wrong timing for the flash but in the stock camera app or snapchat or twitter there is no issues
my phone is BLA-29 running 8.0.0.126(c185)
Hello
I have noticed the same issue in the whatsapp image. I haven't tried Instagram.
The timing of the flash is wrong, and I always end up with a black / dark image.
What I'm doing is taking the picture with the default camera application then sending it via whatsapp...
I have a feeling it's from the whatsapp application itself, and not from the camera/phone itself, but I'm not sure.
I will send to whatsapp support to there email [email protected] and will see what the say

I have the same problem too when using Instagram and Viber. The flash is too early; hence, producing a dark image.
Bur I did sort of found a quick fix for it. Just enable flash (not automatic) first. Refocus the camera for the initial flash then immediately press the shutter for the secondary flash for a lit picture.
is there a way to talk to huawei about this issue because I couldn't get any help from whatsapp
Same issue to me. Whatsapp and instagram. I will follow conversation for further fix

It is not how you are using it, but the app itself after the latest update. I am on a Google Pixel 4 Xl (BUT also my 3 XL has the same issue you noted) and I also can no longer find or see the "WhatsApp" media folder under my SD after the June 9th update. I do not use anything but WhatsApp for WhatsApp messages, and Google Messenger for TXT/MMS and its always worked fine without issue and my media (pics/videos) from WhatsApp used to show on disk (SD) as /WhatsApp (/ = ROOT of my internal SD). My WhatsApp media location (which is nothing more than a folder called WhatsApp on the internal SD root), used to be there until I updated to the latest update on June 9th, 20201. Now its gone and I cant find it anywhere but I need to know where it lives so I can move and backup pics of my family.
I emailed [email protected] the same question, WHERE DID IT MOVE TO with the latest update?! If/when they reply (or if someone else here knows the answer), please chime in or I will post their reply (if they do reply)!
