As a rule, I use neither SMS or MMS, but need to send Contact details by email frequently.
I note that people have previously asked how to change the Send as vCard behavior to use email accounts instead of MMS. But the questions are a little old now.
Does anyone have an answer yet, either for WM6.0 Smartphone or WM6.1 Touchscreen?
Thx.
*bump*
I sorely miss this feature. I was wondering if it could not be achieved by editing the registry. Anyone?
Has anyone found how to do this, I realise its an old question, but it would be handy to know?
Yes, this is not existing. Unbelievable !
I'm using a workaround for this.
1st/ start a send vcard (MMS)
2nd/ the card is stored in folder /temp. Filename seems always to be 'me.vcf'
3rd/ attach it to a normal email using whatever kind of file explorer !!
I'm open to any kind of better solution or workaround !
Hi,
I want to send SMS from my PC using the Windows Mobile connected via Active Sync. Though there are numerous software available to do so, the specific feature I am looking is sending the SMS from excel file in which one column contains the Phone No and another the personlized SMS for each number.
I had searched a lot on the internet and could't find one.
Can you please help ?
Thanks in advance !!!

Hmmm, sounds to me like he wants to spam people rather than sending standard messages - can't think of another reason why you would want to have Excel List prepeared messages. If it wouldn't be meant to send out large amount of SMS, a SMS template would do!
I hate people doing that - here in the US you have to pay even for incoming messages, regardless if it was wanted or not!
Could be he wants to do a blanket "Happy New Year" message to all his friends.
Actually scrub that, you could just do one SMS to already existing contacts very easily so why the need to prepare an Excel sheet.
For remote control etc i use Jeyo Mobile Companion.

Hey !
I am not spamming anything, I want to send personalized SMS to my friends, relatives. etc.
I have to send around 250 SMS on this New Year and has made an excel containing the phone number and the personalized SMS.
Generally in India, people send standard SMS to everybody on such days but I just want to add my personal touch to it !!!
Spamming means to send standard SMS/emails to many recipients, but after reading your reply, it seems that your definition of spamming is very much different !!!
I do have Jeyo mobile, but copy and pasting each number and SMS will be bit difficult.
Hmmm,
I just wonder why you copied / wrote all the messages into an Excel sheet in first place?
As far as I remember, Outlook 2007 somehow supports sending out short messages - it has to be configured once but then it should work just fine.

I had not written all the SMS, just changed the standard SMS according to the person, like his/her name, saluation, etc. Basic text of all the SMS is same.
Excel provides tools like concanate, etc to create SMS with variable fields and that why I used it.
However I can convert that excel file onto .txt file also but the basic requirement remains the same, I want to send particular SMS to particular number only.

Thanks all for your help.
Anyways I did the using Jeyo Mobile and manually copying and pasting each SMS there.
I opened this new thread as I know one software which can be used with CDMA handset to send SMS from excel and that software is free.
I used it and it works like a charm.
I thought there would be some software for GSM also.
But anyways all your help was appreciated !

Hello.
Can anyone tell me a good SMS manager software?
One that I can select messages from someone and move into a specific folder?
Or one that I can "backup" or save SMS to a single readable file that I can store and read in a computer?
Thanks in advanced!
Take a look at MyPhone. Sounds like just what you need.
I really don't understand the concept behind MyPhone. I'd like a software that I could store (in my computer, not in web) my sms. In order to read them in the computer...
I suggest Jeyo.
Easy and fast, it does everything, you'll love it.
How would I restore and migrate my SMS from iPhone to Android? I already got the SMS into CSV format in Missing Sync but I can't seem to find a way to get that CSV onto the Nexus One. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.
Here's what I got down so far. I can convert the sms.db in iPhone to CSV, but the CSV format isn't the standard Nokia, so when I use the Android csv2sms, it doesn't read it. Is there any more direct way?
I am building an CSV importer for Android. But I don't know how Missing Sync format is.
Could you please send me a sample file? (not your real content of cause, you can send me via my private box [email protected])
Thanks and Regards,
Bao
Update: please visit http a.baole.org /sms-migrator to see how migrate your sms from your old mobile to android phone. You can also download app from Android Market named "SMS Migrator"
That'd be awesome. Unfortunately, my SMS is a bit private and its quite large (20mb) so I cannot email it to you.
Code:
"Type","Date","Time","Number","First Name","Last Name","Company","Message","Device"
"Sent","3/19/08","4:59 PM","xxx-xxx-xxxx","Joe","Smith","","blah blah blah message here","So and So’s iPhone"
"Received","3/19/08","6:42 PM","xxx-xxx-xxxx","Jane","Doe","","whatever the message goes","So and So’s iPhone"
The xxx-xxx-xxxx is the phone number. Date and time is pretty obvious. Type is just send and received. Name is separated into first and last. I don't put any contacts by company, but I guess it exports it by that too. The message is the main part of the SMS. The device is the phone name defined in iTunes. I'm sure you're familiar with that if you have an iPod.
When you're done, I can test it for you if you'd like. I shot you an email too in case you don't visit here often.
I may extend my Nokia csv2sms if you wish, too.
Please send me a sample file of your exported sms if you have a special format. Thanks
I'm pleased to inform you of a new release of Csv2Sms !
This new version enables users to import their SMS messages from any format for FREE (0.00 $). (CSV, XML or even SQL !)
Check this out at shar.es/mb0OA
Goo'Luck !
Thats not even the original iPhone format but something else...
The original what you get out of "message" table from sms.db looks like this:
Code:
"ROWID","address","date","text","flags","replace","svc_center","group_id","association_id","height","UIFlags","version","subject","country","headers","recipients","read"
"1","NUMBER_IN_INTERNATIONAL_FORMAT","UNIX_TIME","TEXT_OF_THE_MESSAGE","2","0","","1","0","0","4","0","","COUNTRY_CODE","","","1"
The sent/received tag is contained in "flags" number 2 = received, 3 = sent
I've been struggling to get this working with your athg2sms script, but it doesn't still work...
I just wrote something that may help you, you need to install "SMS Backup & Restore" from the Android Market, though - then you can import the generated XML file.

I can't seem to get the website to read and convert my sms.db file correctly.
when I use the drop down box at CSV i get an xml file which can't be read by my android
when I try the DB the website fails.
Can anyone help me out here
I have extracted the SMS.DB file from my iphone and have SMSMigrator installed on my andriod; just need to convert from the db file to an xml
Thanks in advance

Hi gwoo_ca, please read the instructions on the page - there's a link to "SMS Backup & Restore", which can read the XML.
Yes, sorry that is the andriod program which I am using (not sms migrator)
I think the problem is the XML conversion website, doesn't seem to work when I choose db on the drop down menu.
Maybe I am just dumb but I just can't get it to work
Okay, give it a try now - i've reinstalled my server a couple of days ago, maybe there was something missing. Works for me now!
Awesome, that did the trick
Don't know what you did but it works great now so can't complain
Much appreciated
Hey guys , what if I wanna do vice versa ? Convert text from android to iphone ? any idea ?
