Samsung Galaxy S II :: Texting Multiple Recipients?
Jan 12, 2012
Not had my SII long but i'm impressed so far with my first smartphone. Still find somethings abit complex compared to my old nokias but hope to get my head round it eventually.Now and then I need to send the same tx message to about 50 of my contacts.I've created a group for these 50 contacts called " workmates"I want to send the same tx message to all 50 in one go but I get stopped when I reach 10 and the phone tells me i can't send to more than 10 in one go. So I end up rewriting the tx message 5 more times and have to send it in groups of 10 recipients in my "workmates" group.Is there a way of sending it to all 50 in one go and save the tediousness of rewriting the tx message. I can't even work out a way of "copying and pasting" the original tx message to save time that way.

I sent a text message to 10 people, but want to see who I sent it to. How do I get to see all the names?I can press and hold on the message to bring up a window that shows some of the names, but not all. I can press on the message to go into the message and that, again, only shows some of the names.even on landscape it wont show all.Under options there is nothing to show who you sent the message to.Under view message details, nothing again. (Press and hold on message to bring up option)

I've been wandering why I've been getting charged for sending MMS messages until now, when I was just about to send a text to two friends and it was going to convert it to MMS. I'm using Google messenger to send texts. Can message to multiple recipients send by SMS?

I've got a Curve 9360, running 7.1 with T-Mobile service. Whenever I receive a text message that's been sent to multiple recipients, I can't see anyone else on the recipient list, so unless I can figure it out from the message, I have no idea it's been sent to more than just me.
No problems originating and sending a text to multiple people, though, it's just when I receive texts. Additionally, if I respond to a multiple-recipient text, I'm pretty sure it's only going to the sender. Very frustrating, especially since with my old Curve 8320, I had no problems knowing when I was on a mass text, and could reply to all if I wanted. No such luck here.

My brother (Stuart), his wife (Sheila) and I all have iPhones. Often when I send Stuart an iMessage, Sheila will recieve it and visa versa. If I look at the thread, I have messages from Stuart and Sheila under the same thread, but all under the contact 'Stuart'. I have checked that I don't have their numbers grouped or doubled up, they are both saved individually.

I have just got an HTC One and have synced my contact list. It all seemed to work fine except for when I send an SMS to one of my friends it automatically links another friend into the thread. So the message thread will say "Name1 Surname1;Name2 Surname2" but I have only sent the message to one person. What is going on here, I have deleted both contacts and re-entered them manually but it is still doing it.

I have been unable to figure this out... I want to send a single sms message to two recipients (my kids) via the hangouts app. one of my kids is an apple fan and they don't use hangouts or google plus.
I have tried selecting and unselecting the MMS to group messaging box in the settings and it seems to have no effect. I can't figure out how to select two contacts for sms.
Nexus 5 running 5.1 on hangouts version 3.0.87531466 and am using google voice on AT&T.

Since yesterday, my Outlook account on my iPhone is automatically cc'ing me on all emails that I respond to, when there are multiple recipients - I have already gone into settings and confirmed that my "BCC me" is off and that the correct email address is listed as my account. I have also tried a hard re-set on the phone.

I was surprised to see that when an SMS is sent to multiple reciepients we dont recieve Delivery Reports.It becomes difficult to check if the message was successfully delivered to them or not....Nokia please try to Implement Delivery Reports for Multiple Recipient SMS and also try to Give Delivery Report with the Name of the contact instead of the Number in the Repor

my biggest complaint about Gingerbread reared it's ugly head this past weekend. The lack of "+" symbol in the "to" field of the stock text messaging app.
I wanted to text all of the people in my contacts list who are fathers, to wish them a happy father's day. Unfortunately, to address a text message to multiple recipients, I must remember every one of them, and type in their "letter" individually. I have to type in a letter, then pick one contact, then type in another letter, then pick another contact, then type in another, then pick...I'm sure you can see where this is going. And of course, once I thought I had gotten everybody and pressed "send", I then went into my contacts list and realized that I had forgotten several people, and had to do it all over again. Something that should have taken less than a minute instead took several minutes, and I'm sure I still likely forgot someone!!!
Just who's brilliant idea was it to remove the "+" symbol (that would open up the entire contact list for easy multiple picks) and replace it with the stupid "suggestion" arrow! They should be fired and shot...not necessarily in that order!

I've noticed a couple issues when sending a text message to multiple people. On my old curve, I could hit the menu button, click "add TO", choose a contact, and thats it, simple. But on my Bold, I have to click, "Show recipients", and add another recipient. Now, the problem arises when i want to send it to only one more person. I choose the person and it has the next option for recipient open, which is blank cause im not choosing anyone else. I hit "ok", and it does nothing. I hit "ok" again and when i send the message, its sent duplicate messages, meaning each person gets the message twice. Same thing happens when forwarding. Id choose the person i want to forward the message to, but when I hit "ok" it doesnt do anything, so i have to hit it again and it adds the one contact twice. Anybody know how to fix this issue? Or is this just a common glitch that hasnt been fixed yet?

I can see and mark all contacts on my contact list while in "To" when creating a new text message. However the "Ok" button is missing on the left lower corner of the screen while "Back", on the right, is active. I can type in recipients, though this is tedious when I need to select multiple recipients. Further probing brought up another problem - I can see all my contacts on my phone but cannot find the contact folder nor can I backup my contacts.

I noticed that when I get messages (usually MMS with pictures) from my someone who sent the message to multiple recipients, if I touch the icon at the top of the message thread, next to "Multiple Recipients", with the four greyed out heads (where the normal contact picture is), I'm able to see who else the message was sent to. This includes people and phone numbers that I do not have in my contacts list. I'm concerned about this, because if I were to be the one sending a message to multiple recipients, I could see a situation where I would send it to multiple people but not want to disclose everyone's phone number to everyone else. Isn't this a privacy concern or violation? There should be a way to turn this off on the sending end.

How can I select and send messages to multiple people from my contact list. That is to say how to select multiple recipients. I have to select one by one which is quite tedious.

when I�m texting an sms and I�m suppose to look up my contact, the Galaxy shows fex 3 options for the very same name (before I even choose one of them), where 2 of these are email addresses and not a phone number. The 3rd option gives me the alternative to choose either the mobile number (which is the option I want..) or again the two email addresses, which is ok. So, the first 2 options coming up here are confusing, and more than once I�ve sent text messages that never reached the person�s text inbox.. How can I fix this, and clear up my "text contact list" ? (in my Contacts app there is only one contact for this person)

When I receive a txt with multiple pics I have to open each one individually. This is annoying! It's there any app in the play store that allows you to select one pic and swipe thru the rest?
This is my first non iPhone and I gotta say I like a lot of stuff it will do that the iPhone won't BUT when it comes to texting/ messageing , IMO the iPhone is better.

I have been using the samsung calendar for a while now, and HAD a default set up with my desktop Google calendar for 3 different reminders on each so I dont forget,oversleep etc. anyhow It seems that when Google calendar STOPPED sending SMS messages earlier idk this month or last month I have NOT been able to set up more than ONE reminder even from a appt set from my phone, after the first reminder is set the green plus sing is no longer there to add more. I CAN go into older appt's and edit and the multiple reminders are still there and the green plus to add more is there and selectible. I am assuming it has something to do with the google calendar so what is up?

I bought my Galaxy S2 on the 21st of July from Carphone Warehouse on a new contract (Panther 30). I've been with Orange for a few years now but it was time for an upgrade.Ever since I've had the phone, I recieve duplicate txt messages from anyone who txts me. It could be Iphone users, Blackberry users, other networks, you name it. I even get multiple txt messages from competetions (you know, when you try win all that gear on The Gadget Show and they send a conformation txt acknowledging your entry). I can recieve up to 5-6 of the same txt message throughout the day (they usually come in quite quickly) and I can even get them days after me first recieveing the original.I went back to Carphone Warehouse for their help but they suggested I rang Orange first to find out if it was a network problem or handset issue.Orange were useless at first but then I got through to technical support team 2. An action was opened and so we tried different solutions.
1. Factory reset of the handset. Didn't work.
2. Put my SIM card into another phone (Samsung D500). Suprisingly this worked and I didn't recieve any duplicates the whole day, which indicated it was indeed a handset problem. We agreed that I should go back to Carphone Warehouse and get a new handset but if the problem continued then I should get back in contact with the same chap in techincal support team 2.
3. Went off to Carphone Warehouse. Got the new handset. Unfortunatly the problem remained. It actually got much worse!
4. Got back in contact with the chap at Orange and he could see on his system that there were error codes and that the recieved txt messages weren't recognized at being recieved, therefore would be sent again and again. All the information we had was sent off the tech boffins at Orange to see if they could think of a solution.
5. Finally Orange came back with an answer, which was that I should try a new SIM card (register it and everything). So they sent one, which has only arrived this morning (took 8days). I've recieved the Orange txt that should come within 24hours and then deleted it and turned the phone off. BUT NO! This hasn't worked either. I've already recieved duplicate txt messages from someone. Three of one, and two of another txt.
I usually have 3bars to full signal where I am so it's not as though poor signal is causing this. Everyone else in the house is on Orange too and doesn't have this same problem. I never did either on my old Nokia 5800. It doesn't just happen at home though. I could be anywhere.
Signal strength (right now), -83dBm 15asu
Mobile network, GPRS (there is no 3G around us so I turned it off).
Model number, GT-I9100
Android version, 2.3.3
Baseband version, I9100XXKE4
Kernel version, 2.6.35.7-I9100XWKE7-CL215725root@DELL103 #2

When I sync my Outlook (2010) contacts through Kies (v2.3.0.12035_16), my SGS2 ends up with multiple entries for almost all of my contacts; some might have three, some two, some even four entries for the one person.Each entry has different information. Some of theseduplicate / triplicate contacts have old information. All of them (except the original for each contact on my phone) are missing the contact picture.ome of the contacts that are synce'd to my phone no longer exist in my Outlook. Eg. I deleted Aerial Taxis from my Outlook contacts and replaced it with Elite Cabs, however after deleting all my contacts from my phone and syncing through Kies, I have two Aerial taxis entries in my phone and none in outlook. It seems Kies has created it's own cache of contacts that it thinks it needs to sync andcontinually syns them regardless of what I do to Outlook or my phone.I have disabled syncing through my GMail account for contacts. I even deleted all the contacts from my GMail account (in preparation to import them from a CSV export from Outlook). have uninstalled and reinstalled Kies. Checked, the folloowing folders were removed: C:Program Files (x86)SamsungKies C:ProgramDataSamsungI even deleted the UserAppData olders:C:UsersusernameAppDataRoamingSamsungKiesC:UsersusernameAppDataLocalSamsungIt continues to add the same contacts everytime it syncs, even after uninstalling and removing all the folders.

Why does the Electrify not seem to have the ability to select multiple people to send one text to? On my Samsung I would select contacts, select all of the contacts I wanted and text away. I cannot seem to do that with the electrify. It appears I have to type in each persons name.

I emailed myself some p12 certificate and key files and was having a problem installing some of them. I hooked up adb and saw the certificate installer getting an exception because of early end of file. After a bunch of debugging and testing I discovered that the email app seems to truncate binary attachments to a multiple of 3 bytes. So a 1 byte file becomes 0, a 4 byte file becomes 3 bytes, etc...
I'm on Verizon and running 5.0.2.

Love the phone - just got a really irritating problem. I've synced my phone with my gmail account - the My Contacts list has my key contact email addresses. Then I have multiple groups within gmail account relating to work emails etc, nearly 500 odd.
On the phone, when I click my 'Contacts' button, initially it showed all my phone number contacts, as well all google email contacts mixed with them. I corrected this by going to 'display options' to select 'display only contacts with phone numbers', so that I didn't have to trawl through random email addresses mixed with my proper phone contacts. Great, sorted.
But, when I go to compose a text message - if it is to one or two specific contacts it is fine...I just type their name and it comes up. If I want to scroll through all my phone contacts to send the same message to multiple contacts, big problem - I press that envelope button in the top right corner next to 'enter recipient', and it takes me to the Contacts list, but here it still shows ALL 600 odd contacts with phone contacts still mixed with google email contacts, which is impossible to scroll through and select multiple people to send a text message to....Does anyone know how to sort this out?!??!
