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 !

No i have not heard of anything like that.... you could copy paste in threaded sms view (all into one sms) that may or not be a quicker may to do it.....
you want to send 10 different sms's to the same person at the same time?
why not send one after the other? or just... write a long one.. usually the provider divides the messages according to the agreed length.

dude that i know but lot of friend ask to send suppose i have 10-15 okes/greeting sms to their phone & then i have to again & again forward it -a kind of headache
I'm very sorry but I can't seem to understand what you want.
to send multiple SMS's you can just creates Drafts of the messages you'd like to send and send it again and again to the same person. you can do the same thing for the same message or for different messages.

i have been using GV lately, love it esp because i can sms from my pc, but does anyone know of a way to push sms to phone, because the official GV app only does pull or you have to manually refresh the app to get sms, i wish it was instant.

You can change how often it updates but I think the lowest you can go is every 5 min.
and that still doesnt always refresh properly. I even searched on GV help forum the refresh 5 min rate sometimes doesnt work.
Isn't there a setting in Google Voice to forward SMS to your mobile number? Might not be exactly what you're looking for, but it does give you "push" SMS...

When i had my iphone i faced this problem. What you can do is create another gmail address, i.e. [email protected], go into your g voice settings in a browser and set it to forward sms to above email address. since the gmail app on android is push, you will get an email with the sms in it. you can reply to it just like you would a normal sms.

Could you also just make a label to filter them out, then you wouldn't even need a new address?

Yes, you could, which is actually what i do now since i dont need that method anymore. they forward to my regular email address, get a label applied and marked as read. Then if i need to reply from my computer i can just reply from my email rather than having to log into gv.
I had them seperated at first though on the iphone so i could keep the accounts seperate. hated digging through emails to find sms'

Hi everyone, I noticed that if I send the request to send 2 sms via programming the first SMS is sent first and only when it will be sent will start sending the second, there is no way to send more sms at the same time ? This thing also known in the app to send text messages, in fact I can not send another text while another is about to be sent.

There is no way to send 2 sms at the same time (if someone know a way , he is free to share his knowledge).
It wouldn't make sense , I mean , and sms is a piece of text , if you want to send two pieces of text at the same time , just put them in one single sms .

The sense has seen that an SMS has a limited number of characters.

Yes of course , but when the sms is too big you can turn it into an MMS. Anyway , I hope you'll find what you're searching for
