You have to use another SMS app like Go SMS or something.

+1, definitely in GoSMS, where you add recipients in compose new message you can select entire groups or all contacts...
You can add a bunch of people to the recipient list just by tapping it

GroupText it's in the market.
You can type multiple names in the stock msging app. Just tap on the address bar and keep inputing names.
Mind you, it cant email a group but it can mass text.

What bug? Read posts above yours.
After you enter the first recipient, tap in the TO: field enter another one, then keep adding to your hearts content.

That is a pain in the ass though. Read the report I filed to see why it is.
Not only is it a pain in the ass, but there's also a limit to how many people you can add when using that method.
I can't believe Google still hasn't given us a built-in option to see a list of all contacts with tick boxes next to their names for easy selection. My Symbian phones from 2004 could do that.

Haven't found a way to remove frequently called or contacted from the phone or people app. Kinda sux seeing my ex's info right there every single time. Temps me to text or call. And yes drunk texts apply here so it'd b nice to be able to remove these on demand lol
Anyone know how?

Press the menu button and then clear call log.
Not the call log. The frequently contacted. Its the last column in each app, phone app and people app. designated with a star icon at the top of the people app

Oh sorry. I misunderstood you. You could try clearing data in the contacts app. Not contact storage.
I haven't tried it so I can't confirm. That's my only educated guess.

Hold down on contacted and then hit the 3 dot thing and tap remove from log. To remove favorites you gotta log in and click on contact and then find the find the setting to remove starred contacts but it didnt update on phone. I dont know how to proceed with that part.

Clearing data in contacts storage works on mine, and it must on yours as well.
Only thing I can think of if that doesn't work, is if you store your contacts on phone or sim. But can't understand why you would do that.

How can this data be cleared? I have been trying to find a way to clear the frequently called list for weeks since ICS came out!!
Anyone thought about checking in their Gmail account online to see if Google has said contact(s) flagged as frequently contacted?

Sadly that clears even the call log. I want to clear the frequently called list or some specific numbers from that list but maintain my history.
I don't mind the frequently called list to be hidden since I can manually clear the history. Frequently called list however does not allow deleting some numbers.

This really is annoying.
you could just install exdialer from the market. you can delete individually calls from call history (incoming/outgoing/missed). and you get T9 dialing with it as well as a bunch of other useful stuff missing from the stock dialer.
doesn't consume much resources, very fast, and you can have it look almost exactly like stock dialer with its ICS theme.
If you want to have the same stock dialer icon you can use desktop visualizer (free) and link it to the stock dialer icon.
Cant find the option

Hold your finger over the text message and you will get the delete option. You can also do this over the whole thread to delete that thread from a person.

I can't replicate this issue, but I'm not totally stock, either. Please advise:
ROM/Kernel version? (IE: I'm using OsiMood 2.01.30, and the Cranium Kernel)
Stock Messaging App? (IE: I'm using GO SMS Pro)

I think he's talking about when you add a recipient and it lets you choose from a list of recent recipients that you have texted.

Thanks, I'm still trying to replicate the issue, I'm not seeing it. I sent a text message to a friend, then:
New text --> Add Recipients --> Recent
Their name was first
I canceled that message, deleted the text I sent them, then:
New text --> Add Recipients --> Recent
Their name was no longer there.
I also did:
New text --> Add Recipients --> Recent --> Checked a bunch of different names, clicked "Add"
It added all the recipients. I did a long-press on each name, and a menu pops up with options for Delete and Edit, both options worked.
Can you give a step-by-step what you're doing, what results you get, and what you think is missing?
Thanks

I use The People's Rom, on FC09, and as far as I can tell it uses a slightly themed version of the stock touchwiz message app.
If I receive a group text, I don't know who else, if anyone, the message was sent to and responses from other people are not threaded with the original message.
I've recently seen on a friend's incognito that even its crude messaging app can report all of the recipients of a message and a reply all option is available. This is also the case for the iphone.
Which messaging apps for the Epic, if any, are able to display and reply to multiple recipients of group text messages?

GoSMS has group MMS now. It shows as a group icon, rather than a single contact's picture in the text list.
Go SMS does have this feature but I've found it busted MMS after the first use. Maybe they fixed it since the initial release of it, I haven't used it since.
If you don't have it, you can long press the message and go into details. Then it will at least show you the numbers the message was sent to, but it won't match to any names even if you have them.

Honestly I think this is my most wanted feature on CM. I hate the way android handles group texts just as much as I hate go sms

I think it's rather annoying that I get responses from other people when someone sends out a group text. It's just Iphone users I've found.
When I send out a group text with Handcent and someone responds, it's just to me, not the whole group. It's not that way with the Iphone. When another Iphone users responds to a group text, everyone that got the original message also gets the response.
This "feature" sucks in my opinion but other people may want this functionality.

Yes I would love to have it. Just makes coordinating group projects at school so much easier. I absolutely understand it could be an annoyance to some though

You only notice it with iPhone users because it's Apple's 'way' of handling messages to more than one person. It's supposed to be like a chat room I guess. I'm not a big fan of it myself, but it can make it easier when dealing with a few people who have iPhones.
EDIT: And no, nothing on Android (AOSP, CM7/9, TW, etc) either displays or replies to all people the message was sent to. In fact, the way you'll know it's a 'group message' is because it comes through as MMS, so if you're without data, you won't get it. Just FYI.
Go SMS has the feature and it works really well

Do you use it frequently? The last time I used it (when they first implemented it) it worked for one reply successfully. It then crapped out and borked all MMS until I unchecked the option in the settings. Haven't tried it since. But, if you use it frequently and can still receive picture messages from others, then I might have to re-enable it as it would be nice to have.
So the update came out and know quite a few people talking about it. If you update Facebook and messenger you now get this option without having to use Facebook home. Anyone get it to work? If you go to settings and notifications there's suppose to be a check box for chat heads but I'm not getting one

When you bring up the person you are chatting with, long press on the conversation and then you will see the option to bring up "pop up chat head"
Forgot to mention chat heads only work on Facebook messenger.

This does not work for me. I've tried long pressing everywhere. I'm assuming if I don't have the option to turn it on under notification settings that it won't work for me at all.
I'm running 2.4.2 I've restarted the app and phone several times and reinstalled too

Open messenger,, then when the window comes up on the top left hand side should say messages.make sure that your settings allow pop up heads.
You do this by going into settings on the actual messenger app, then click on notifications, , then check "chat heads"
Now go back to messages window and hold down a conversation that you already have going.
On the conversation window that comes up tick the pop up heads option.
There you go hope that helps

Try to sign out of your account and then sign in to a friends account on your phone and test it out.

If you're using CyanogenMod or any custom ROM....
Find your device full specifications on google and look for its original PPI pixel density or resolution.
download an app on playstore like 'screen resolution changer' and change it to its original resolution.
Hope it works
I know this is a general question but it applies to any Android device but since im on a s4 ill ask here.
Since the new Gmail update with the new Colorful interface look,which I find useless.... is there a way to multi select all emails in the in box ,to delete instead of long pressing one by one?

Clicking on the colored letter / picture will select the email (as if it were a checkbox).
You can also disable the new look by unchecking 'Sender image' in settings.

:thumbup:Nice, that partly resolves the lengthy one by one delete process, but I sorta meant like a multi select/select all at once, then after just uncheck each one you want to keep.
But I guess only way is to check each email one by one .
Thanks though :thumbup:

Ah, yeah the app doesn't have a 'select all' feature. I suppose the app is designed to cater to users who keep more e-mail than delete.
You can long press on one email then select many.... It will highlight all and you can then delete several at a time.
