Hi,
I have a HTC Desire and I received a vcard from a nokia phone via SMS.
I opened the message and it showed a vcard attached.
I clicked on the vcard and received the message: "The vcard has been imported successfully".
The thing is that I cant find that contact anywhere .... where are they saved?
Try looking for unknown in your people tab, vcards don't work for me!

nop, no "unknown" found...
They don't work for me either. I had someone email me the vcards and itdid nothing when downloaded 'run'.
I found a way but not via SMS...
IF you receive the vcard via Bluetooth, then go to People > Menu > Import> From SD Card. The phone will import the vcard (Will ask you where to import it - Phone or Google).
Still no idea how to save the vcard from sms to card or import it directly.

Same here. Desire has a big bug.
Don't think its just the Desire. A lot of phones struggle with vCards irrespective of how it is transmitted or at least that has been my experience.

Worked for me when sended via MMS.
I found its possible to forward the vcard, and then in the editing screen obtain the phone number etc.

I have received vcards, and they have been saved to my contacts, no problem

If you "Forward" the message on, you can then atleast see the details of the vcard contact.
From there you'll have to get your paper and pen out and create a new contact.
Not the best, but atleast you can retrieve the number.
Hi xda-developers,
I've got a strange problem. As of last night I have had two problems.
First, it seems that my outgoing SMS messages are no longer saved. Well at least they aren't visible in the threaded SMS conversations and I can't find them anywhere. They do go through to the recipients, I can confirm. Also, I do get incoming SMS in the conversations just fine.
Second, it seems that Gmail is no longer syncing anything. If I go into Gmail and hit sync manually, the sync icon appears for just a couple seconds, then goes away having failed to download any new messages.
Anyone have any thoughts?
Cheers,
Paul Thompson
I'm running Mynn Warm 2.2
I have set up a contact with my email address and phone number as "ME" so i can easily send myself a txt or email for capturing information. I can see the contact in google contacts under My Contacts. I cannot however send an email or txt message to that contact in my messagin app, either default or Handcent, and i cannot send an email to that contact because "ME" doesn't show up as a valid contact when i type ME in the "to" field. Can someone help me figure out how to have my phone recognize ME as a valid contact and be able to send myself txts and emails to this contact?
I'm wondering if it may ahve something to do with the "My Contact Card in the Sense rom???
Just create another contact with your name and info that should work.

Hi,
Our company recently moved to a new cloud based exchange environment. After setting up my Nexus (4.1.2 - latest BlackBean) towards the new Active Sync server Exchange sent me an automated mail saying I now could send and receive text messages in Outlook.
And, without doing anything my SMS's starting popping into my inbox as they arrieved on my phone. Sweet.
Problem is the other way. By pressing ctrl+shift+T I can write SMS in Outlook, send them and they end up in the sent items. However, they are not delieverd. They should be synced with my phone and then sent out via GSM.
Apparantly this works fine on my colleagues Galaxy SIII using the native e-mail client.
Has anyone succesfully managed to send and receive SMS via Outlook with a Nexus? If so, how did ya do that? :fingers-crossed:
so, I recently upgraded my personal vehicle and it has bluetooth integration which also includes the ability to read (via the car "voice") SMS and email messages.
When I bring up the phone messages, I see the "title" of an SMS message (not emails but the phone might not have had any fresh emails at the time) but with I try to "read" the SMS message via the BT in the car, it says unable to retrieve the message.
is there a trick to this or do our GNex phones just not support this function.
I'm on Cyanogen 10.1 RC5 and I use Handcent for SMS and K-9 for my email client.
thanks...
