Maybe I am doing something wrong...but I can't seem to figure out how to read txt's I get on the watch.
If I get a email I pull up and can read part or all of the email (depending on length) on the watch
But when I get a txt all I can do is see who sent it and have the option to open on the phone. I cant read the txt on the watch (other than the little infor I indicated)
Is there a setting I need to change?
Thanks

What program do you use for messaging on your phone? I use the new messenger app and it works fine for me.

As far as on the phone, I don't think you can. If you want to see where your texts have been doing/sent to whom, call up sprint, and request a sopena [can't spell the word for my life], but its a log of your texts, and they'll mail it to you.

It may have been from like a backup app.
As far as I know, I don't know a way to double back to see where it was actually sent to.
You can install handcent, open the app, click menu, then try delivery report; it shows the message, and if you tap it, it'll show you the time and to the person/number.

I think you were able to send them text msg to their phone not on FB.
BTW, how do you do this, is there an update?

As long as you are on Mango you can do it.
Just press the extreme right button "swap" to jump between FB Chat and Text msgs.
This isn't new...
And you don't even have to go online on chat to send a message to an offline contact...
Simply go to the contact in "People", hit send facebook message, type it, send it. Done
I figured this out a while back, and tested to confirm.

Yes because it will log you in automatically. After that you still stay logged on.
So you still have to be online yourself in order to send and receive fb messages. So its half a step, now hopefully Apollo will finishe what should have been there from day one ...
This is definitely a new feature. Its also special because this is MS showing that they can change things without an update. This is definitely a cool way to bypass carriers for minor changes.
It is new, before it used to say "can't send because recipient is offline"

This is what I always got, and it would recommend me sending a text. Now it goes through, I was hoping they would make it like this for wp8, im glad they could change it without an update
Hi All
The standard SMS forward works fine most of the time, but occasionally I need to forward a text WITH the senders number. This is a royal PITA to do.
Does anybody know of a app that will allow me to do the latter without removing the ability to just do the normal forward of the text?
~Mex
I don't know any app like that but that can easily be done with tasker
you need root though :/

The phone is rooted, so that is no problem, however I can see no way of doing this with either tasker, or AutomateIt, as I want to only occasionally do this. What am I missing?

Did this : https://www.dropbox.com/s/lc864ux2vhw4rdg/ForwardIt.apk
I put only the essential in it. You have a on/off button and a number to enter. Give it a try
Permissions : receive SMS, read SMS, send SMS.
If you need everything else in it, just ask.

Sorry about the delay getting back to you, for some reason I wasn't notified of a response.
What I'd really like is an extra option on the pop-up when I do a long press on a message with "forward with number" alongside the normal forward. is that possible?

I can't appear to directly reply to text messages on the watch for some reason ? I have the option (reply or send to phone) but when I choose reply, all that happens is a green check mark comes up and it doesn't do anything.
Anyone else have this or know what I'm doing wrong?

I have the same issue with the stock messaging app as well. I really want to avoid connecting Hangouts and Texting.. the people I talk to do not overlap at ALL.

Well even with Hangouts set for sms on my Moto X, the watch sends texts using the "Messaging" app. And, touching that app in recent apps sends the message again and again.
Also, sending a text to a number sends it to some inexplicably chosen contact. If they can't get it right with their own phone, I sure others will have problems as well. I have returned mine and will try again next year.
I have exactly the same problem. Did you get that one sorted? Works perfect when voice replying to email but sms with OS messaging software doesn't work.
Any Progress?

Exactly the same issue here. Haven't managed to find a fix. ...
try some other free sms apps.. the stock one doesn't work... i currently use chompsms and like it the most, only thing i can't get on android wear is picture text messages...
you can try textra, hello sms, or some other sms apps.. i recall trying those and i believe they work..
New Google messenger works great
My usual app doesn't allow voice replies to text messages so trying to find a new one. Textra seems very nice but I'm not getting the vibrate, pop up on my watch. I get the notification if i scroll down to it but nothing pops up. Any suggestions?

hangouts:good:
Thanks for the info. Yeah hangouts works well, but it lacks a lot of features. I found Textra. Works great, looks great, has all the usual features I love like replying through the status bar, but most of all it allows voice replying with my watch!
I tried out Textra and liked everything about it except how it pulled my favorites from my contact list and put them in the quick contacts. I couldn't find a way to remove some of the quick contacts without removing a Favorite from my contacts... so that extra space taken up at the top of the screen...plus my keyboard popping up at the bottom made the view window for typing a message very small and hard to use.
I found chompSMS (which is put out by the same developer as Textra), and it's exactly what I was looking for. It allows the option to reply on the Android Wear device with a Reply button (like Textra)... and it's running great with no problems. If you haven't settled on a SMS replacement app yet, you might want to check out chompSMS.
Been using Google Messenger to reply for voice texts, and Wear Messenger to reply via text on the watch. You need to have Minuum installed though, works pretty well for replying with a keyboard.

I actually received an email from Minuum about their version 3.0. Although I see it can only be installed via adb which I'm not to knowledgeable about. But how does it work? Are there only certain apps that allow you to respond to texts? How do you pull up the keyboard cause usually when you hit reply, it just does voice input.
Also to add, I found an app called Coffee. Allows you to respond to sms with voice, and a bunch of premade texts and you can also add to it. Also it appears to just pull the notification from your phone so even if your app doesn't support android wear, you can still reply via voice with this app. Will be testing more though.

Yea, you have to install through adb and set it as default through adb. I can find you the steps if you'd like. Also, the only text messenger app that allows keyboard reply is Wear Messenger. But I'm going to try to take apart google messenger apk and try to see what I can do to the wear side.
EDIT: For those that aren't very good with adb, here's the steps to install minuum: http://support.minuum.com/knowledgebase/articles/394385-minuum-on-android-wear
I'm also using Coffee, but I keep getting the "Let's get started" card where it says to flick your wrist to send a message. This functionality doesn't work for me, even though the option is ticked on the phone app. No idea why that won't work, and haven't had a reply from the developer yet.

I actually emailed the Dev about constantly getting that notification. No reply yet.
Other than that, the app is working great. I did untick that feature as I don't need it but I think when I first downloaded the app, it didn't work for me either.

The problem I have is that I need to use TMO WiFi calling at my house. I have zero signal there. And unless I'm using the stock app for messaging I can't receive or send MMS or group messages. So none of the 3rd party apps for SMS work for me. The irritating thing is that the manual for the watch says it has the reply option. (it wont let me post the link here)
So unless there is a work around for 3rd party SMS I'm SOL. So far Sony has not responded to my request for a fix.

Try coffee SMS out. It gets access to your notifications so you can respond with voice even if your messaging app doesn't support wear. Only thing is I had to uninstall coffee because it causer battery drain.

You sir are a gentleman and a scholar! This works PERFECTLY! I don't get notified of MMS messages but that's okay. They still show up on my phone. If this was imgur I'd give you +1 fake internet points.
