Is it safe to say that FroYo's built-in SMS capabilities don't allow you to send an SMS to multiple people at the same time? I was able to do this in 2.1, but maybe that was just due to HTC's implementation of SMS, I'm not sure.
I'd hate to have to get an APP for this, but if I do is there anything you guys recommend?
Thanks!
I've sent to multiple people
type in the first number than a comma then second number
try that...

When you start a new message, select the "send to" area, and add your first contact. Select the send to area again, and add additional contacts...
Awesome thanks! I started playing with it some more and figured out what you guys had just confirmed
I guess I felt they could make it a bit easier, haha. After adding the first contact, I put my cursor after the comma that was added and had to two at least 2 more characters for my contact list to pop up again.
Maybe I'm just being picky xD
Anyway, thanks for the help! ^_^

Would I sound like an idiot for asking what this is?
It gives you threaded sms like on the Palm Treos. So basically when you talk to someone it looks like a chat window like AIM or something, good stuff! I am downloading and installing now

My girlfriend and I installed it and we no longer have the left soft key that says SMS. How do we fix it?
I just installed it and there is one problem:
On my device there are like 1500 Messages and it's importing them in Groups of 10. After each group i have to restart to get the next 10.
Is there any way to import all SMS?

yeah, I had to remap the softkey too. I used SKTools to edit it.
@Shogunmark
Can you let us know what the differences are between this version and your last version of this app?
Any difference between this final and the beta?
Thanks
Marc
too sweet
i will be testing this on my trip tomorrow.
i gotta make more friend that text message, preferable of the female persuasion. =)
does this version still have problem of 'recbar.dll missing' when trying to record a sound?
yes, recbar.dll still missing... i forgot about that... but will work on that issue...
I took out the sms softkey cause it gets on my nerves i always have to remap that thing, i guess i could always make a quick cab to renable it...
the app still looks the same, but some things that have changed....
MMS send was boosted to 600k.
you can now send mp3's via mms.
if you have a message thread open and that person sends you a message it will now alert you.
thats about all that really comes to mind, im sure my testers that had this can come up with more...
nice. thanks you.
Checking it out now.
Great work.
Hopefully this works out good on the mogul.. im crossing my fingers lol. does it look similar to the palm threaded app?
So i'm guessing this is a upgrade. I had a problem with SMS thread when my phone all of a sudden stop receiving text because i guess some went into my old text format somehow and the others i don't know where they went. Any idea if that's been fixed?

Looks the same as the previous version. Unfortunately, the annoying 'soft keyboard overlapping the text entry area' problem still exists. I wonder if Palm will ever fix it ...

this is the actual palm threaded app, it replaces the sms inbox on your phone, and works very well... the messages get stored in a different file in their own format...
ON ANOTHER NOTE, A QUICK WARNING
IF YOU HAVE MESSAGES IN YOUR REGULAR SMS INBOX THESE WILL NOT BE CONVERTED OVER INTO THE THREADED APP.. I WOULD EVEN SUGGEST BACKING UP YOUR CURRENT SMS INBOX IN CASE YOU NEED TO REVERT BACK (ALSO SUGGEST DELETING ALL YOUR MESSAGES IN THE OEM SMS INBOX TO HELP ON STORAGE SPACE)

I'm running stock Sprint 6.1. My question is, when I go to the Messages tab, click on the latest message, it shows all of my texts on top and the texts I received last. It's not true threaded sms. Am I missing something, or is clicking on "All Messages" and using the WinMo interface really the easiest way? I think TF3D is much better and more productive all around, except for this. It doesn't seem very thought through.

The Messages Tab does not support threaded messaging. It only supports a chronological order - but it only sorts messages starting with the newest message - from anybody.
When entering the WM interface in "All Messages", that's when threading is supported. By threading, it means when you click on the person, you see your whole "conversation"; not just you see all your messages in a chronological order.
Well, in other words, I don't know of any tweak to enable a chronological order in which the oldest message comes first in Manila. Nor do I know of any tweak to view conversations ("threads") in the Manila interface.
*Bolded: you can see messages you sent? I never got that on my old T-Mo stock ROM!

When I go to the Messages tab, it just shows the last received text. When I click on it, is where I see the "threaded" texts with mine above and received below. They're in chronological order, but separated by sent and received. I was looking to see if they can mix so they are all in chronological order.

I think the only thing the Messages Tab supports is Inbox messages in chronological order with latest first, oldest last.
However, I'll try to look for some fixes that might work for you.

You are experiencing some kind of bug. The TouchFlo threading is supposed to work just like the WM default threading. They are also both incredibly slow if you have more than 10 messages.
Interesting. Thanks for your time, sumflipnol.

The only layout I've ever seen on the Manila Messaging Tab (on every ROM I've used), is chronological Inbox messages with the most recent message first. I don't know how to set it to a different layout (outbox, conversation, most recent last) in the Tab.
On the tab it is chronological, but when you click one of the messages (anywhere on the text) you are taking into a manila style conversation view.
It IS a bug. Something jacked up since the new year!
Check the date on all your incoming messages.. mine show year 2016!
All sent messages get the correct date... so this is why they are cut in half (some on top, some on bottom).
WTF HTC?????????
Y210K bug get you?
My latest received message says 1/4/16, my reply, 1/4/10
Interesting enough, if I use windows mobile app, the date/threading works fine, so it is a problem with HTC.

yeah i guess thats why, Manila couldnt match the dates to view the conversation of the SMSes correctly.
and btw, there is a fix for the 2016 thingy, a cab, i saw it somewhere around ehre
UPDATE - Just called HTC... they say they are aware of the issue and they are working to get it resolved asap. Couldn't give me an ETA or how the fix would be distributed.
Looks like you guys are faster then HTC
I did a search for 2016 and saw many other people have posted this problem as well as some fixes.

Oh, sorry. I know about that.
I just have it disabled because I'm using an old version of the "Disable HTC Messaging Client" cab (I hate the Leo messaging, and this cab also disables all HTC Messaging), so that doesn't launch for me anymore!
Sorry about the confusion guys.
Hey guys - Quick question here. One of the things iPhones (blah, I know) do when sending a text to multiple people is to convert it to MMS. I use Handcent, so I can go into Message Details and see the numbers it was sent to. My question is, is there any way I can reply to all? I try to long press on the message thread, but that option doesn't seem to be there.
One feature that would be great would be a mapping of the numbers to contacts, and it would just be numbers if the contact didn't exist in your directory, but that's not the issue.
Quick bump for a brotha?
There are apps that handle multi messages like that. I'm sure they exist probably on account of the stock msg app lacking in functionality. I cant remember the name of the app though.

Hi there,
This is a bit of a random question but is there a way to hide a certain person from appearing in your contacts and their text messages from showing? I don't want to delete them or their texts, just to hide them?
Thanks
You Can Delete The Contact
im affraid you cant do such thing but there is in the store some apps to lock your stuffs including contacts if you like

I don't know about contacts but the Sense roms I used would allow you to move single texts or entire conversations to the secure box, hiding them until you enter your password. The aokp rom I use now has no such option.
Sent using the power of the dark side.
As the previous person said. Theres an app in the play store called secret box and miui has it as a built in function. Havent played with the miui one too much. Not sure if it hides it or blocks it.
I hope my gf doesn't read this
Edit: the app hides the contacts, pics, calls, messeges. But play around with it cause I think it will still show at the moment it comes in. You don't need any surprises. Oh, and I'm talking about sms messages.
Sent from a dream.
More to say have I. My drinking buddy rom is vu (i know its old but works n is sexy) which is sense. If that's you this works. Never seen the app.
Put the contact you ent to hide on you sin. Open people, click menu, click view deselect sin.
Wit that n the secure sms inbox, its hides. Will show on Sense lockscreen except weather or pics. But u may want hide some them too.
If u not sense, try app. Let us know. Some US secrets too.

Is there a Group MMS feature in the stock messaging app where all the replies are kept in one thread?
I don't think there's native support for that at the moment. I composed one text and sent it to three recipients at once. On my screen it showed a thread with all three individuals, but on their phones, they received the text as if it was only addressed to them, and if they reply, I'm the only one that gets that reply text. I saw on the FreeGS3 rom that there's support for a "reply to all" feature which sounds more like what you're looking for.
That's too bad. I know GO SMS has it but I really like the look of this stock messaging app.

Mulitiple Replies???
I sent a joke text out earlier to 4 people. Now when they reply back, I get a text from each of them individually. But two of the people have iPhones. So when they reply, they go to everyone that was on the message I sent. I've noticed that it happens with BlackBerry's too. So is this a Android issue or other phone issues?
I'm also interested in having all the replies in one thread with the person's name next to it.
Any ideas?

I'm pretty sure Group Messaging was Apple's idea. I'm not a big fan of it personally, but I work and deal with a lot of iPhone people so I've resorted to GO SMS Pro for that feature. They had a few quirks at the beginning, but got them sorted out.
And to those asking, it does keep them all in a single thread, with the person's name above what they wrote, at least, in the style I have mine set up in.
The one thing I have noticed is that any thread where you had a convo going with the originating person, shows up right next to the group message as well. You can also click at the top and see who the message was all sent to if someone sends you a group SMS. If they're in your contacts, it shows their name, which is a nice bonus. If not, just the number.
As for the comment about the FreeGSIII 'reply all' feature, it's not the same thing. I thought that dev had it pegged, but he said it was something else.
EDIT: I don't know if they will all appear in one thread if not everyone else is using an iPhone. If one person responds using Android and not using the feature in GO SMS Pro (or something similar) I would assume their reply would only go back to the person who sent the initial message. Hopefully that all made sense...

I believe that is user specific as I've had the option to set it this way, or sending them to each person, not in a group like you state. I liked to keep things in order, so I would always choose to send it to each person as it does it anyway, just depends on how you want it displayed on your phone.
