Receive text messages sent to phone on N7? - Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A

Is it possible to receive text messages sent to my nexus 4 on my nexus 7? I often use Google Voice, but a few contacts use my real phone number, and not my GV number so their messages go to the SMS app.

Try MightyText in the PlayStore. You'll need to install one app on your tablet and one app on your phone but this has worked flawlessly between my Galaxy S4 and Nexus 7.

Use TabletSMS.

Sprint users and text messaging

I am curious to know what fellow Sprint users are using for text messaging. Have you merged your number with Google Voice or have you continued to keep your numbers separate? I've thought of merging my number with Google Voice so that I can text online, but the thought of not being able to text pictures and having to keep data enabled to send and receive texts doesn't appeal to me.

Enabled Google voice mail, but did not integrate. I use the default app on the stock ROM. Like you, I am not hip on losing the MMS.
I integrated my number and use handcent. Mms works fine on phone, I just can not see it in web

I may integrate now that I know this. Thanks! It was my understanding that you had to use the Google Voice app to send and receive texts. I didn't know you could send texts/MMS via the stock app.

I integrated at first, but I really need to keep my 2 separate number so decided to break integration and keep both numbers separated.

Connect to mobile (SMS, Whatsapp)?

Hi,
I just got my Nexus 7 a few days ago and am wondering if anyone has come up with a solution to connect the tablet with my mobile. What I would like to do is receive and send text messages on the tablet, routed through my phone and if possible the same with Whatsapp.
I know you can get Whatsapp working on the Nexus 7, but not with the same phone number as the mobile, at least not at the same time.
Tablet Talk App
This is quite nice for SMS and it also alerts you to phone calls.
Doesn't do whatsapp, but I have no idea what does
I use tablet talk wicked app
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
personally, i use MySMS..
I went with Tablet Talk and it really is great.
Anybody know of a solution for Whatsapp?
Maybe email the developer of Tablet talk and ask him about adding support for whatsapp
From the reviews I am reading, it's pretty amazing. Sounds good.
I sent a feature request for Whatsapp support - I'll report here when I get a reply
I restored my whatsapp to N7 by titanium, and receiving the messages on both devices N7 & GNexus

he is right, just make a backup with TB on your phone, then just copy the 3 achievement to the TB folder on your tablet, do the restore with TB and it work, i have it on my Iconia A100 and my phone :good:
This app works flawlessy in my opinion.
Koush (ClockworkMod) has just released TabletSMS, works a treat. Easy set-up with a free trial period as well.

I'll give restoring whatsapp a try. If it's as easy as that...
Tablet talk is very simple and it makes getting text messages and phone calls fairly simple using the app. I barely touch my phone now that I use this app at home.

i also used the Titanium method. Do you receive the same message on both devices? When I send a message from my Nexus 7, I only receive the response on my Nexus 7, not on my phone. The same when I send from my phone, I only receive the response on my phone only. So in my situation i can not receive the same message on both devices. You can?
Mightytext
I've been using Mightytext. I really like the computer apps/notifications and that it uses my phone number. It works in the N7 browsers but no apps or notifications as of yet.

SMS sync on nexus 7 using hangouts possible?

So before when I has my nexus 4 and nexus 7 2012 I would use tablet talk to sync sms from my phone And tablet. Now that KitKat has come out and the new hangouts integration can I still use something to sync the messages? I would like to not have to stop using hangouts on my tablet.

From what I just noticed between my One and N7 it syncs automatically, I don't do anything for it to happen

I'm looking for this too!!! In the meantime... I use either MightyText or something like that
I'm also looking for a solution to this. I have a WiFi only N7 2013 and a N4. I would like all hangouts messages that go to my N4 to be synched to my N7 and for me to be able to send SMS and MMS from hangouts on my tablet.

Check out MightyText. I'm in the same boat as you only I have a N5 instead of N4. I'm able to send and receive SMS and MMS from my N7 going through my N5. It's cool because you're SMS messages that you send from the N7 using MightyText actually show up on the phone as if you sent them from your phone. However, when you send MMS messages, they don't show up on your phone (I got a pop-up message saying this is has something to do with Android 4.4), but the message does still send. It works really well, and I don't see any significant battery drain using this app.

I got texting to work on a WiFi nexus 7.

But I was wondering if anyone with more experience in android could help.
I installed an xposed module that unlocks the "default SMS" options in settings and in other texting apps like hangouts. Now I used the cyanogenmod voice+ app and linked my google voice, then I went to hangouts and got it to import my existing texts and that worked.
Now this is where it gets weird and I need some help lol its pretty glitchy. I actually receive texts fine, but I was able to send one text perfectly and now I can't send anymore.
If anyone wants to work on this please go ahead
