This has always bothered me...

How do you guys send your picture/video messages?
I always have to copy the number down from who I want to send it to in contacts and pasted it in the to field.
Is there not a simpler way to select who you want to send a picture/video message to?

I think it depends on the SMS/MMS software you use. There might be a version of Arcsoft that should work with your Altel. I am on Verizon and it seems to be integrated with several of my apps like SPB Mobile Shell and PocketInformant. Hopefully other Altel users can help you here.

Thanks for the info. Always love feeling like the village idiot!! Never would have thought to try that.

Idea for useful SMS app

I think it would be cool if you could type a message and specify the recipient but instead of sending the message immediately, you schedule it to send at a certain time. Then at that time, it automatically sends it. I don't know anything about coding but if anyone would like to make something like this I think it would be very useful.

maybe try PowerSMS ?

Someone in the other thread said:
The application sends the message as soon as you turn on the Diamond. So it's still working after it's closed. But it does not wake up the device.

Does that mean if the device is in standby it won't send the message at the scheduled time?

emailing contact details

I have pda for along time and I don,t know the answer to this.
Sometimes I want to sent a contcts details to a college. Youu can beam if they are standing next to you or if oyur lucky you can send them as a sms. Not always very reliable. Can you send them as an email, that would be great.
Any ideas or is it obvious and i am the last person to know.

I send contacts as vcard via sms. Easy for both sender end receiver And it has never failed me ...
Regards
Asbjørn

not always
I find it doesn't work with all phones. My friends on htc just didn't recieve them and now his iphone doesn't like them either. Email just seems to be the way forward for me and I am sure there must be away.

There actually sent as MMS if you look at menu in contacts it will send contact Via (it depends on the ROM ) or something similar, this will then show your mms screen and you just add recipient it will be sent as a Vcard which is attached and will have all the info of that contact

Yeah I know that the contacts can be sent as MMS but I wanted to send it as SMS, has anybody got any idea?!

If you go to contacts tab > all people > click on a contact > menu > send contact by message

listen for message opened

hello i'm new here.
so, i want to run some codes when an sms is opened.
what i want to do is basically read a message as it is opened(read or unread) and do some manipulations on it.
so in order to do that as the message is opened, do i have to listen for some activity?
how do i achieve that?

I don't think this is what the OP meant. OP, i'm not 100% positive you can do what you are wanting. Is it possible to do what you want to do when the sms is received?

ya.. thats not exactly what i had in mind.. yes it is possible to do that when the sms is received. But i want to run the code every time the sms is opened. Actually what i want to do is for every open sms, do some manipulations and forward it through bluetooth. is there any way to keep track of that?

You can create your own app to open SMS messages. However, you cannot grap any Intents because someone might use a custom SMS app.
