how sms app uses sim to send
messages if it is data only in n7 3g and not make calls??
There are many apps that allow sms over wi-fi. I use Google Voice and my GV phone number to send and receive texts from my wi-fi only N7. Your question is confusing. If you are talking about a 3G N7, it still has wi-fi and you can text using wi-fi or data on 3G.
am telling u that the apps like go SMS pro make use of Sim card to send text msg (no internet required) then why not the phone calls

Hello,
I have an 3G N7 and know that it can not receive / send SMS. OK, that is what was told of.
But today I got a notification that I have a message in notification bar, opened it and it looked like a regular SMS message.
Then I tested myself, I sent a normal SMS to my tablet gsm number and received it instantly. I'm on Vodafone if that makes any sense.
Build number is JDQ39 - baseband 1231_0.17.0_1205, Kernel 3.1.10-g05b777c.
Obviously this is some app inside that handles the received message, what's the app name ? location ? at least is interesting to know that at least SMS I can receive. How can I access it ?
Best regards,
Radu
Hi, i also have the same question. Anybody knows?

Download Go sms from store.
Google Voice works great on the N7 for sending and receiving sms, also. Sms works over wifi or data.
I maybe not beein too explicit.
I have received two SMS, regular kind, sent through my gsm carrier.
As i received them, means there is some app that recognise it and can handle the sms.
Question is, what is the app, how can i acces the messages received.
I'm aware of various solutions for sms that require to have an online account, in order to handle sms, do not want to use this kind of service.
Also, there is hack to install sms/mms apk by rooting, but, again this is not the object of my question.
I just want to check my incoming sms's for now.
Best regards,
Radu
Like mentioned above, if you install gosms or any other third party app it should allow you to view that text message that came through the carrier

Long press the notification and press "App Info" and that will tell you the name of the app.
Hello again,
Here is screenshot and detaild of the app.
As it says it receives SMS, but also can write SMS- see last line, in theory.
Question is, where can find this app. Looks to be hidden..

How to do so with stock mms.apk has already been covered here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=34282107
Right in the N7 3G dev section. XDA search function is highly recommended

Hello Rebel,
I know the MMS.APK, saw it, thank you for heads up.
My specific question is, why should I use that, if I have an app already installed. I do get SMSs from any regular gsm phone, without being necessary to create an online account for GOSMSPRO or whatever similar. The screen shot says that I might be able to send also, on my cost SMSs. No probIem, just want to find that app that handles the SMS received. Can I do that ? can I send using same app that is ALREADY installed?
thank you for patience

So it seems the 'Simple message receiver' is an app that comes with the 3g N7. Mine is just wi-fi, so I can't check, but does your app drawer have that app? If you check Settings > Apps > All, is it listed there? I have no idea how to open it if it is not in the app drawer or if you would be able to send using it anyway. Interesting that it is included in the 3G version.

Yes. As thw thread states, they are successfully receiving and sending sms from the same app over gsm, just as you would on a phone. The only difference i forsee is doing so with a dedicated data sim, or using the sim from your existing phone.
Many are using the latter, and using other apps to forward thier phone calls to the data side, and using sms normally.

Hi,
I've got a win 10 tab with sim card and my operator requires to receive sms to check amount of data left and account balance but I just cannot find any app that could read sms on win 10. Does anyone know where to look for one?
Latest windows 10 build as of today's date has an app called "Messaging" built into it. I recieved a "text" alert from my carrier just today (T-Mobile) advising me of something or another. I've since been trying to figure out how to enable text messaging on it, however I'm not sure it's possible yet.
Working on a solution, not sure if I'll find out, though.
yes after th2 update I can receive sms in messaging app but cannot send as it says to check if sim card is inserted.
Hello everyone!
I was wondering if there's a way to use whatsapp on both sim cards. I googled and found out that there are three apps which do this job, OGWhatsapp, GBWhatsapp and WhasMapp, but I'm not able to install any of them (installation fails, dunno why. Unknown sources is enabled).
Any suggestion?
Thanks!
WhatsApp will only work with the sim with data. It can't work with the other

Try DISA for second sim. You need to register whatsapp service in DISA with the second number, but keep Whatsapp client with your first sim. I'm using it in a Ulefone Be Touch 2 with no issues.
hello,
I have the same problem.

Hi, as I said on previous post, you need to try an app called DISA, is a multi service comm client. I have it working without problem on two dual SIM phones (Ulefone be touch 2 and Zuk Z1). You need to keep whatsapp client for one SIM and register DISA with the other one.
try using parallel space.
Hello All,
My SMS is set for a prefered SIM for messages which I do not want and when I change it to my second SIM it changes back to the prefered SIM instantaneously.
I would like to have the choice of which SIM I want to use for each SMS I want to send.
This function worked prior to rooting and returning to stock. Something got lost/corrupted when I returned to stock
My phone is locked and do not want to root it.
I saw a command for HTC that can be run with ADB but I do not have Grant access to send the command to my phone.
Is this the correct command for a OP 8T OOS13?
adb shell settings put global multi_sim_sms null
If so how can I send it to my phone?
Or does anyone have another way to allow me to use either SIM 1 or SIM 2 when sending messages?
Thank you
Specb405
What SMS app do you use? There are a few in the Play Store that should handle dual SIM well.
Thank you for your reply Genesis.
I am using Google Messages and the function used to work before I rooted my phone and reverted back to stock.
As you can see from the screenshot attached, it allows me to change from work to home but will always revert back to work automatically so I can no longer send sms/mms from home.
It would seem that something is missing in the code to allow the change to stay on Sim 2 (home) when selected.
Again this function worked even after rooting, but when I returned back to stock using MSM and the correct OOS for NA (Global) is when it stopped.
When I returned to stock and went through the steps to set up my phone, it asked for prefered SMS Sim but nowhere do I find a button to allow me to change that with disabling mobile data for a specific Sim and re-enabling it.
When doing that it willl allow me to send from home but wont allow me to send from Work.
Hope this helps clarify the situation.
Thank you
FWIW,
I figured out the problem with Google Messages no longer allowing to switch sim cards to send messages from one sim or the other.
If you had to restore your phone to factory settings or locked / bricked your phone and restored it with MSM tool and had backed up all text messages with any tool available, messages does not like that.
Messages will allow to use either Sim for texting if you do not restore your old messages after any phone restore.
If you restore your old messages, then some software bug in Google messages no longer allows you to use both sims for texting.
Quite a frustrating time to figure that out.
I liked Google Messages but due to this issue I switched to Textra and all is working fine.
Hope that helps some of you.
Cheers!
