I've had my HD2 Since December and only recently started using it to write emails. I only connect to my hotmail account through windows live, I do not have an outlook account or similar.
I'm having a big problem with email formatting, does anyone else have the issue of emails being sent on only 1 line?
For example say I write: -
Dear Mr. X,
Thanks for your message.
Regards,
Mr Y.
The person the other end (including myself if I BCC myself) regardless of device, receives it like this
Dear Mr.X,Thanks for your message.Regards,Mr.Y.Sent From My HTC
Any ideas why this is happening?
If i write a brand new email it doesn't happen, its only when replying to someone. Also the email looks fine on the phone screen before sending.
Also is there a way of keeping sent emails in the sent folder liek happens for text messages? They seem to dissapear straight away once sent and I find it really annoying.
Is this Just another one of the many bugs with the HD2

So my Girlfriend is living in japan for now and she gave me the handy email address that is linked to her phone(blahblah at i.softbank.jp) so i can text her without getting hit with international rates... but the problem is, when i text her from my phone in handcent and the stock messaging app it sends as a MMS... which is annoying because when she replies it sends a lot of sprint mumbo jumbo with it instead of just the text she sent. is there a way to stop the phone from automatically changing my text into a MMS when sending a text to an Email Address??
I don't know the answer to your question, but could I offer suggestions?
You didn't say what kind of phone she has. Is it android? If it is, you could get her a gmail account and use google talk. Another idea could be to have both of you open an account with someplace like msn, aol, icq, yahoo, etc and just use the im program that's on just about every phone I've seen. I would think that way wouldn't rack up international charges.
I'm sure there are other possibilities to communicate relatively quickly without extra charges.
or just use gmail to text the number
or use the google voice app to text/email the number

thanks for the suggestions but... it seems like using gmail wont be as instant since i would have to refresh the app every minute just to see if there was a reply and then with google voice i cant send a text to an email address and sending a text directly to her number wouldn't work because she'll have to break the bank to reply to me since the number is still a US number.
i mean holy *&[email protected]
is a refresh too much to ask for? lol guess you really dont wanna talk to her THAT bad
Internet instant messaging programs don't, or shouldn't, care where on the earth you are as PNG as you are connected to the net.
As for the refresh issue, I'd think it would almost be instant. Maybe a minute or two at the most normally. Your phone does need sync on for your gmail account for the email to come in almost instant

Are you sure that it's your phone that is sending the MMS?
Her carrier in Japan could be converting the email to MMS to send to her phone, and as such, she replies in MMS.

I'm looking for a mod/app/tweak that will play a notification sound when an email has been successfully sent. I don't know why its not there by default but it's not. I'm using stock HTC mail app..I don't care for Gmail app and have deleted it from my phone.
TIA!

Have you had an issue of emails not being sent? Everytime you type an email and hit send, I am pretty sure it sends it and if it doesn't, you get an error message. So, having a notification about a successful send it kind of a mute point but whatever.

No issues or errors..I would just like some sort of conformation tone..even though it sends I always find myself going back into mail and checking my sent/conversation box.

Well here it is my fellow androids. We asked for it and Handcent fell through. We should all thank Handcent and their developers for this new big update. Keep in mind this app is still in Beta stage. However, I tested it for a couple of days and I was able to chat with my fellow iPhone lovers. I was also able to chat with verizon Galaxy Nexus, Thunderbolt and LG revolution. I havent had a chance to chat with none Verizon phones. You guys will be our testers. Please list all bugs here and Ill forward the list to the developer. So far there are two bugs with this build. The first bug is double notifications on group mms and the second one is blurry background images with Droid Razor phones
Setup:
1. You must make this app default messaging app for all MMS and SMS.
"settings"->application settings->Default Messaging Application-> All(SMS&MMS)
2. You must enable Thread Group Conversation. Its all the way down in application settings
"settings"->application settings->group messaging->check Thread Group conversation
3. MMS retrieval should be set to Auto unless you want to download each group message.
4. You might experience some lag as the group mms pour in one after another. I think this is normal cuz I do experience it on my Razor maxx using the stock app since it has this this feature built in. In addition, I asked my freind with iPhone 4s if he experiences lag when all these group messages pour in and he said yes. Sometimes he cant touch his phone until all the messages have been received
5. Be gentle on me if I missed any bugs. Im already in the Dog house in my wifes book for spending too much time on this project. This is the reason why the developer is releasing the app for public feedback.
File got updated:
Fixed double notification
fixed some bugs
This file not in market, so you guys are Handcent beta testers.

Loving the capability! It seems to be working well.
Have one question/bug. Some replies say "Me:" and they go to the group. Some replies say "Me to name: and they are going individually to the group it appears.
I did not do anything different I don't think on any of the replies but I may be missing something or this could be a bug.
Thanks for the great feature!

What phone are you using? Can you send a screen shot. In other words when you reply to message, you are replying to yourself also? I had that at first was fixed. I wonder if each phone will have that bug

so testing it with cm9 on HTC evo 3D (sprint) doesn't seem to want to send group messages at all. Just get that continuous loading symbol and never sends. I'll test it on stock first and see if it is the problem with the rom and report back

The file has been update. Hopefully fix your issue.
So far I have had it "break" and resort to sending separate messages once. I have three theories as to why...
It may have been due to not completely removing my old Handcent beta first.
I was Texting with friends pretty frequently, and I noticed if I exit the thread and re-enter it would "convert to MMS", Maybe it drops out of MMS if you send several texts in a row?
The thread I was sending to had my google voice number in it, so I was essentially sending messages to myself at the same time.
Sometimes if you have a group message with say Joe Smith as a participant and a separate thread with Joe, getting the group text will show a notification for the separate thread and you have to do "mark as read" to fix it.
I am on a HTC Thunderbolt BTW.
Did not try the updated file yet, downloading now.

Have not had the issue where the group message sends separate again, but this one is still happening...

An issue happens when you send texts too quickly it sends you back to inbox and doesn't display the messages. From what my friends tell me it displays something weird in their group chat. I have to visually see it to confirm. Love that it actually works though

How is it supposed to work? I tried it with my friend who has an iPhone but it didn't send messages via Internet service but normaly as SMS messages. Friend with iPhone tried to pull his sim card out of phone with no succes. Does it need any special settings to make it work?
Anyway I don't care much cause I have all my SMS free I just wanted to try that function.
I use HC Talk service to chat with my girlfriend everyday so there's no problem about functionless HC Service

In the first post is suggests going to settings>application settings>default messaging application>set it to all sms and mms.
Then settings again>application settings>scroll all the way down>check the thread group conversation box.
Then should work

Morning All. I was wondering is there a way I can group message and receive individual responses from others? I sent out a massive text one time and a friend of mine with a iPhone kept getting message from everyone else I sent the same message to. Any suggestions? It was quite embarrassing when that happened.

That is strange. I usually will text multiple peeps via email client and will receive a response from just one and it only comes to me. I have also text multiple peeps in the past and never heard of anyone getting others responses but who knows. I will have to test that
What messaging app are you using? I'm using the stock app and just adding multiple contacts individually. Not sure if this can be done but do you have groups set up that can be added in the messaging app? If so, this may be the difference. Sorry, I'm not a huge text user but will try to help if I can.
The SGS3 has that, SGS4 and iPhone. If you place several contacts in one text message they will all receive the original message but everyone else will get each others response. Person A sends Person B and C "Hello" in one text. B and C receive. C responds "Hey" and B also receives "Hey" as well. It does get annoying. My son was born last month and I sent a massive picture text, everyone received everyone's text response. So yeah....that is annoying. There is nothing under the settings for both phone and text for this. And I've spent a good 24 hours searching for a solution and nothing..... Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
P.S. Messaging app used is the stock SMS app for the Samsung phone.
