How to Copy and Paste Multiple Messages in Whatsapp
Whatsapp allows you to copy a single message by long pressing it, But occasionally we need to copy part of a conversation, which is not supported by Whatsapp. Here is a way to do this. Hope it comes handy.
Requirements:
Whatsapp application.
Jota Text Editor application (available in Play market).
Method:
Open the conversation to copy messages from in Whatsapp.
Press menu button and select "More" then "Email conversation" then select "Without media" then select any of the Email applications shown, for example "Gmail" but don’t send any message just cancel.
Open the Jota Text Editor application.
Press menu button and select "File" and "Open" then select the "Whatsapp" folder, then "Media" folder, then ".Shared" folder. You will see the name of the conversation you asked to Email earlier. Open it.
You will see all the messages of the conversation and you can copy multiple messages from here.
Notes:
We used "Jota Text Editor" application, but you can use any text editor or file explorer that can open a TXT file.
This method is for Android system, but can be used for other systems with minor modifications.
Use a file explorer to dispose accumulated TXT conversations in the ".Shared" folder. This folder is hidden but file explorers has an option to show hidden folders and files.

I use text messages very frequently, and miss the basic functionality of having the list of recent contacts that you have SMS'ed...du-uh, WinMo . I typically text my girlfriend a lot, and it takes me about 9 clicks / ~15-18 seconds to create a new message with her mobile number in the "To" field
Thankfully, I stumbled upon a workaround on the e-natives website, which works great if there is one particular contact you send text messages to frequently.
1. Install SmartToolKit and launch it
2. Goto Start > Control > Gadgets
3. Click on Add > Shortcut
4. Under "File", click on "..." and browse to \Windows\tmail.exe
5. Under "Parameters", type the following text:
-transport "SMS" -to "Name <Number>"
where "Name" is the name of the person in the contact list, and "Number" is that person's mobile number
6. Under "Title", type whatever you want to call this new shortcut
All done. Now go the homescreen, press the backspace key, and press the number corresponding to the shortcut you created. You'll have a new message to a contact in 2 clicks / ~4 seconds. EUREKA
thats awesome thanx!
thats the typical girlfriend shortcut lol
Dear friends i am very much new to this forum and android.
i s have shifted from Nokia so few things I really miss about that and copy and paste message into phone memory for forwarding to some one some other time is one of them.
I Nokia we had a option to paste any text in Nokia communication center and then save it as message for later use and import in phone to use as template or something like this. I have surfed lot and did not find any suitable pc suite or software to do this so I figured out a method to import new messages to phone memory or inbox without having phone attached or saved or backed up from nokia pc suite.
First of all you should have following softwares
For Pc
1. My phone Explorer
2. ABC Amber nokia converter
3. Microsoft Excel
For Phone
1. Import Sms(Full Version)
Method
Here is step by step process with images
1. Open My phone Explorer and click on the message>and draft
2. Then click on the new message icon on the tool bar like this
After this copy your text and save it as draft
Now open Message windows of My phone explorer and right click the selected message to save/ Export it
Now export/ Save the selected message in nokia message format *.VMG format
Now you have to open ABC Amber Nokia converter and open the folder containing *.VMG nokia message files like this
And save then In CSV Format like below
After that open that message file in Microsoft Excel and edit the message like delete first three Columns and first row
Now make Arrangement of the columns like this so that I should look like Nokia CSV format to import in Android
Now please remember write sms in first column, in second column write submit, in third keep empty and fourth is for the no from where you have received message so keep it empty as well and in 5th keep empty and in sixth write date as “ yyyy.mm.dd HH:mm, seventh is empty and eighth is message body
After that save that CSv message, any warning click yes
Now put that message file onto sd card of your mobile
Open “SMS Importer(ful version)” and give path of your file
Now clock menu and click “preview and import” on phone menu
Its done message will be in your inbox

Hello Xda,
Is there a way to send a pdf or doc file through an MMS message. I have some files I would like to send to someone.
Is there an app that can do that?
Yeah. Using a file explorer (I use Root Explorer), find the PDF you wanna send, longpress on it and a list of options comes up. Select Send (or Share, depending on explorer) and then select Messaging from the list.
Have you tried?
It did not attach the file
no another software can do like this?
Ah, I found one.
Tmail allows to attach files

Hi,
I tried exporting my whatsapp conversation via email. This conversation is received to mail box in .txt file attachment. Once the file is downloaded to pc and opend with notepad as usual, the chat messages with our local language (hindi, india) are not displayed. Only square boxes are displayed in notepad. (making the conversation backup useless) What i need to do so that all the messages are displayed in pc ? (Eng msg are displayed correctly)(emoji not displayed is ok for me)
regards

You will have to make sure that the app you are reading it with has the language plugin installed. Most Notepad apps dont have that language by default.
I installed textra hoping it had this feature. Does ANY messaging app allow you to select & copy selected words (e.g an address or phone number) from within a received message? Haven't found any that allow this. Thanks
Selecting, copying and pasting by touching the screen is not dependent on the app, but on the android that came with the device.
I don't know how to handle such apps on Android TV, because I don't use it, but I suppose it should work when you press the mouse button or select text for a long time.
Android has a Clipboard functionality ( copy & paste ) implemented. Use GBoard to deal with it.
