Hi i was just wondring if anyone can tell me how i can get the senders name of the SMS to come up in the SMS inbox rather than just there phone number. Its really annoying when you get a text message and the phone number comes up and not the name of the person who sent it.

Hi guys,
I've just found out that I could not delete now SOME of the messages from one of my contacts unlike before. Menu->Delete Messages are no longer working for that person, and to my amazement for this person only. The feature is still working with my other contact's SMS.
I hope anybody can offer some help.
Thanks.
Just to check, there are messages from that person to delete, rather than an empty list?
Can you select them in 'all messages'?
Do you have an idea why some of my SMS conversation show the number instant of the contact ?
I even tried to create a NEW conversation using the contact, as soon as the SMS is sent, the contact is gone and I only see the number.
Both the working and the non-working have the same number format xxx-xxx-xxx
Thanks!
Just an update.
When I receive a new SMS from the non-working user, the notification bar show his name, but in the SMS, it still only show the number.
Tried to update contact to x-xxx-xxx-xxxx or (xxx) xxx-xxxx or x (xxx) xxx-xxxx ... still not working...
I tried to erase the contact and re-create it from the "Create contact" option with-in the SMS... samething !
is there a way I can keep my outgoing text messages from going out in parts, just as one whole message, kind of annoying when I get them that way and my friends always hassle me about it because they dont always get the messages in the correct order lol
Thanks in advance
You can't send messages larger than 160 characters via SMS. You would need to send via MMS which is an option depending on what messaging application you are using.
The reason your messages are sending out of order is because Sprint is notoriously bad about that. I wonder if that works better with Google Voice?

I am having a problem on Android that I can't figure out. I use the RingCentral service for my home phone, unrelated to my Android phone.
When a caller leaves a voicemail for me at RingCentral, I receive a SMS message on my Android phone. The RingCentral SMS is sent from [email protected] where the X's are the phone number of the caller.
The X phone number matches a phone number for a friend in my Android contacts. However, the [email protected] is no where in the contact record for that person.
My SMS app is empty. No retained messages. Whenever I get a direct SMS from that contact, it now shows as being from [email protected] rather than that person's contact record name: First Name, Last Name. This is annoying because I use Tasker to read the name of the SMS sender. Instead of reading the name, it reads me all of the numbers at ringcentral dot com.
It seems this has to be related to a cache or something, but can't figure it out. Any ideas?
Hello Members
Does anyone know, or has noticed that even if I pick a contacts mobile number and make it the 'default' in the phones address/contacts book, if then go to type an SMS message entering the persons name in the 'To: ' it still won't pick the 'default' number in it's listings first, but choose the landline number of the contact as first number in the drop down.
It's important if you want to use an app for Sending SMS messages on the new Smartwatch 2, as doing so will send the message to the landline number.
Any ideas please.
Kind regards

A quick fix would be to split it and create 2 contacts one for the mobile and one for the landline. Not ideal but its a workaround.
