Send contact info - Windows Phone 7 General

Is there any way at all to send contact info to a third person via vcard, sms or anything? There's no cut and paste - so, do we really have to write it down on paper, then enter it into an sms to send a one contacts info to another?

Thats an old thread to bump lol.

forwarding text messages

i own a HTC 8525 and I was wondering if there are any programs out there.. or any settings that allow you to forward you text messages to another number?
In text message menu> reply> forward
In inbox menu> reply> forward or hold on txt and forward.
Not sure about specific programmes though.
but how do i reply with the sms message being copied? u know, just like in emails where they keep previous txts when replying. Is it able to be done instead of copy & paste...

That would probably not be a great idea, since SMSes are charged per block, starting with a block of 160 characters. You would be charged for two SMSes when you exceed 160 characters and are below, if I recall correctly, 306 characters. And so on and so forth.
But in terms of answering your question, I think the best way is just copypasta...
Need same thing - not much help so far - SMS Fwd
I just did a search for the same question. I have a friend that is recieving a text message from a forex trader that he wants to be automatically forwarded to me. Perhaps we can have text message sent to a number that would automatically forward it out to both of us? Surely there is a way or a product that does this? THANKS FOR YOUR HELP

How to insert contacts info in text messages.

I know it sounds like a dumb question, and it might be, but I tried to see everywhere, but I can't seem to figure out how to pass contact numbers and names in a text on the Dash. You can do this on a RAZR, I can not believe you cant on a Dash.
Please help, thank you.
I use send contact.
Crap... now I can't remember what it is. I have enclosed an attachment that I think is the right file. Anyway, I go to a contact, select send from the menu and text message is now an option. I select what Info I want to send and the person receives a message saying something like "so and so sent you contact information for business whatever, do you wish to add them to your contacts"
The uninstall is apparently not clean since I have since uninstalled it but still have the feature.
Sorry for the vagueness.
That is not what I need.
What I mean is, say I am typing a text to you, but I then need to type in stylez number, on the razr or any other phone, you can go to options and click on Insert Number... and I select who I want and stylez number will show in my text, without me writing down first and all that.
Get it?
Also, does anyone know where I can get that feature that is found in Ricky and Stylez remade 1.7v, where when I send a new text, I can just start typing in the To: field and a list of numbers corresponding to what I am typing will appear? Without having to pick one by one?
Thanks.
I can not believe nobody knows the answer to these queries...
Should I think that the Dash is not as good as a RAZR?
Seriously... you reply to the dumbest topics and you can't do me a favor?
i think because windows mobile 6 didn't support insert contact info in text messages.

SMS Vcards Vanishing!!!!

Hi all you great helpers out there! I've gained so much knowledge from all you guys on this forum. It's soooooo helpful!!! Thanks!!!
When I receive a vcard via sms, I click on the vcard in the sms reader and up pops the message "the vcard has been imported successfully".
Great me thinks!
But when I actually try to find the contact in my contacts, it simply isnt there!!!!
HELP!!!
Thanks a billion for your help!
I had the same. In the end I selected the phone number and pasted it in a new contact manually :-(
Well, here's some things I know and maybe this will help you out.
vCards are imported into the phone memory. You don't have a choice.
If you have set you phone to view only a certain type of contacts (e.g. just Google contacts) then you won't see any contact sent to you via SMS or MMS. If this is the case, the just go to People - Menu - View and select the phone contacts to view as well.

Thanks for this. I've checked, but sadly, my people view isn't restricted yet I still can't see the contact my phone told me that it just saved.

First, make sure you're not sending it to a land line.
2nd, did you try removing the + sign? I'm not so sure how the codes work in your country/area but in here (Canada), it will add a +1[areacode]-[number] when the contact is saved from a received sms.
3rd, can you receive sms from those contacts?
P.S.: Don't double post.

This was an issue with some verizon ports with the SecPhone and SecContacts apps adding a + in front of the numbers and at&t not being able to call back or text back directly to that number. The contacts app might not be setup to work with the + extension added. You could try pushing a different carriers SecContacts/SecPhone apk to system or using a 3rd party app
