I set up a group of people under the people tab. When I try to fwd a picture message to the group it allows me to select the group and inserts all the contacts and appears to send the message but no one receives the message. Anyone know why or ow to fix.

I noticed that everytime I send a sms from my contacts their names are not shown and only their number. Is there anyway the names of contact appear instead of their number?
Thank You.

I'd like to know if this is possible too. Come on u techies, let us mere mortals know if this can be done and if so how? or should that be how much? :wink:
Re: Bump
Search for Paragon Software sms_name.
The program sms_names will only show the names of contact when a sms is recieved. It does'nt help in showing the names of your receipient when sending the message to them. Their numbers are shown instead of there names.....
I have to double check if the number appearing matches to the name of the contact.
you can tab & hold on a contact then select "Send sms" ... this will display only the number ... but in an empty sms if you click the "To" field and type the first 3 letters and then select the name this will display the name as well ... weird but true!!
Thank you for that advice . It did work. One more question. How do you do it if you would like group sending?
Thank you.
unfort. there is no concept of groups in pOutlook ... one good trick would be selecting the required names then copy the "To" part and paste it into a text file for future usage
SMS Group
There is the way to send sms to group. I should
1. buy Pocket Informant
2. create groups
3. check numers belong to certain group
4. hold and click Extras-Send SMS
This procedure will open inbox with checking contacts.

Hello There!!
Is there any addon, or utility, that first, lets you send any contact you have as an SMS message? and second something that lets you select multiple contacts for sms sending?
All the best,

Anybody else have this issue?
When i go to compose SMS then i select the contact that I'm trying to send a message to, once i select them 2 of the same Name and Number will show up on the top bar, and it will send 2 messages on that same #
Please help
nope, what version of code are you running and what app are you using to send texts?
I've made a group of contacts in the people app. I want to send a text message to all those people, but I can't add the group in the recipient box in the messages app. What's the purpose of having contact groups if you can't send anything to the whole group at once? i'm using CM10. I know handcent sms has this feature, but that app is ugly as hell. Is it possible to do this in the native messages app?
Try go sms.
Is there a way in the stock messaging app, or is there a specific messaging app available in the play store where I could:
Draft a txt and then send to multiple recipients without each recipient being able to see the other? Basically the same thing as sending an email to multiple people via BCC option.
Would be handy for business purposes. I don't care if they see my contact. I just don't want them to see eachothers contact since not everyone I'd send to would know the other (and/or want their contact information shared).
Obviously I could copy and paste the same message to multiple people via individual txt msgs... but being able to send a group txt would be way more efficient.
Thanks!
If you go into the settings of the messaging app there should be an option to group text messages as MMS. Just uncheck that. At least that's how it works with hangouts for SMS.
