This is obviously an age-old issue for O2 XDAs, however since i'm just new to this forum, I was wondering if there is way to send and receive CONTACTS via text/SMS either through a special software or phone adjustments?
Thanks

Hi chaps,
After a little bit of help if possible. I have just spoken to O2 customer care and asked if it is possible to send and receive faxes using WM6 (XDA Orbit).
They have just called me and informed me that for no extra charge I have had a fax line added to my account which will be active in 72 hours - with me only being liable for the cost of calls for any faxes I send.
However, they have told me I need to go online and find some software that will enable me to use this service - but cannot advise what is available.
Thats where you lot come in I hope?
Anyone got any ideas as to software i can use?
there is no fax software (as far as I know) for the WM5/6. There is a fax software for WM2003 though (ironically). Chances are that, the 'sending' method they are refering is to use a PC to send via the phone's modem capability.
Hi all:
I am a developer for an app that forwards SMS (and other things) to an email address. Obviously it would be elegant to be able to reply to your SMS right from your email account, while the other side still sees your SMS in the normal way, and the app does exactly this.
But to get the reply back to the phone via email, we need the user to enter the email-to-SMS address as part of setup. You know, like [email protected] or @vtext.com. The app has a database for some countries and carriers but obviously its a drop in the bucket.
We are finding out that maybe not a lot of people know of such a feature on their phones, hence this poll! It'll help us try some other ideas, or implement this one differently.
Thanks!

PhoneLeash - free on Android Market
Rogers (in Canada) has this service.. but they charge us for it. So not many people actually have it.
Thanks to everyone who responded. As a result of the poll results, PhoneLeash now supports forwarding SMS (and missed calls, and location, and battery status) to another phone number via SMS. And replying back to these forwarded SMS' does not require an email-to-SMS feature. If you forward to a Google Voice number (or other PC-based SMS-capable services such as HeyWire, Pinger), you can use a PC, and enjoy a very nice feature set (see this review).
Thanks for the useful development for mobile users and internet users as well.
However, I'm already using this service with the help of third party i.e. TextMarketer.co.uk
Play (Poland) already has such a service. It is free for everyone. Polish speakers can check it here: http://www.blogplay.pl/2010/11/kopia-sms-na-email-beta/
Hello android gurus,
I'm a business person, with great ideas, but...... not very good in technology...
So I need some help.
For one of my new business ideas , I imagine the following app :
Someone enters a specific area (a railway station, a shop, a parking, a theater etc.) and automatically he receives an SMS concerning that specific area. Of course, after having received the agreement of the person that receives the SMS.
Is this possible? If so, can you describe in a couple of lines how this works?? (use your normal tech language of wifi, bluetooth, push, nfc etc. )
Thank you all
Afternoon everybody.
I am looking for a solution to Send and Receive text messages from a computer as a small business user.
We will be sending approx. 50 SMS a month just confirming order's are ready to be collected., I have noticed their is a 1p SMS Simcard we can use but I don't have any idea's how to connect this to a computer and what application I would use?
I would appreciate it, if somebody could shine some information on this and hopefully get me heading in the right direction.
Thank you .

As far as I know, there is an IM application which was developed and distributed by the carrier of my mobile phone. I can run it on my Windows PC to send SMS. But it's based on my mobile phone number. I am not sure whether we can send SMS aboard with this application. I have not this application installed on my PC now.
So I think you should contact your carrier to check whether there is any application some like this. Or your carrier may supply some API for you to develop some application by yourself. If then, perhaps you will have to pay for your application to send SMS.
Hi, so we are 5 people with the same number, but only one person can send and receive SMS at any given time. If another person wants to take over, he needs to use #133+ and is then the only person being able to send and receive.
Sadly, we must use SMS, and we need to continue to use the number we already have. The main problem we have, is that it is not possible to see all SMS in one place. Each of the 5 of us only got some SMS. We checked with a gateway provider, they could send SMS as E-Mail then and everyone could see those and reply by E-Mail which would be great, but they would have to assign us a new number, which is not an option.
Do you guys maybe have a good solution for me? I have seen Rest SMS Gateway on AKPPure which might be a solution but no update in 3 years and I cannot really find any further information about it. Thanks for any good tips.
