Why is it that when I change "Call Logs" "View by" to "All Calls" it changes it back. I close and reopen and everything is there again instead of just calls. (like text messages etc). Also for some reason I changed my contact list to not show contacts from this app called "voxer" but same as call logs everytime i exit that phone book. and reopen they are back. Its like everything changes back..
I'm having the same problem.
A friend of mine with an S2 said the preference doesn't save and you need to use a different dialler/phone application.

Is there any kind of tweak of program to allow sending of multiple text messages? The only way I know of to do that now is to open up a new text, touch "To," touch a contact; then the screen reverts back to the new text message with one contact added, and you have to repeat that process for however many contact you want to include. I would like a way to select several contacts from the phoneboon first, and then get to the new message screen. I know that you can select multiple contacts at once, but there is no option to send a new text message to them all at once.
sending a text to multiple contacts
each txt message is like an email, you can simply put a semi-colon ( ; ) after the first contact in the "TO" field of the message. after the semi-colon put a space & the next contact etc etc..
you can also choose menu > add recipients once you create the message. thats kind of what your wanting.
i remember an app called PowerSMS that dealt with "groups" of contacts but it wasn't freeware. you may check into the app & see if it suits your needs
Have you tried...
Select new.
Pick SMS/MMS/Flix/Pix/whatever.
Cursor should now be in the "To" field.
Start typing the name of the contact you want to use.
Name should appear at the bottom of the screen.
Tap the name to insert it in the "To" field.
Repeat for additional names!
Works for my Verizon TP

You could try Moblmsg (freeware). it doesnt store your texts in the standard way but allows you to define and save groups and send texts to them.
I use SKB Group SMS, works great and sends your multiple text in secs....

I know this is probably a stupid question but just wanted to clear it up in my mind:
the reason I CAN NOT reply to all in a text is because the text that is coming to me (SPCS is my carrier) only sees the sender not the sender's distribution list correct?
I have a person whom i need to send a text message to. I have removed him from my contacts (to troubleshoot this crazy problem). When I text him, by going to my phone icon on main page, then type in the phone number, then click the third icon (yellow icon with envelope), it then automatically adds a +1 at the start, puts dashes in the number, AND adds "[email protected]" (the dns address of our network (I added the quotes). Then when I type the message and hit send, it shows as "sending" but never ACTUALLY sends it.
I have searched for this number in my contacts list, also using "Power Search" that I purchased, and I can't find his cell number at all (i have REMOVED him!).
If I do the above, but before sending, go back up into the number field, and edit the number back to straight cell#, a pop up appears "Converting to text message..." and then after finally putting the cell# back in, this time it doesn't auto-re-format the number, and it goes as a text.
NORMALLY, to text/sms, I would just go to my contacts' entry, then click the "envelope", and presto... send. But, for THIS contact, the same thing happens as above (thus the reason I deleted his contact info to troubleshoot).
Thanks for any help!

Do you store your contacts on the google servers?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
yes, all my contacts are google (sorry, forgot to mention that).... i don't have any local contacts in the phone itself (at least i don't think so), and i also have contacts in facebook (but this guy isn't on my facebook at all)...
You can use a secondary messaging app like handcent or go sms pro, and see if this happens again. Just a wierd problem!
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA app
i use HyDrOG3N 25/3 AOKP rom and i have a small "issue"
the phone log show me only the numbers of the people who i called or called me, not their names.
but when i dial them it shows the name from the contacts.
is there a fix to this?
also, on the same issue of "phone", how do i do the following:
1. disable of change the top line that sits on the Picture of the contact when i make a call
2. is there no setting to "show only contact with numbers" in ics?
Phone: Samsung Galaxy S3 on CM11 (even updated to latest nightly)
I had an issue pop up where the "Message Not Sent" notification would keep popping up. I would hit it, but it would bring me to the main text message list (I use the stock text message app) and not bring up the message. I downloaded Handcent which allowed me to see undelivered messages, and deleted it from there (it was a blank message, no recipient number, not message).
Thought that would fix it. But, the "Message Not Sent" notification keeps popping up everytime I open the stock text messaging app. If I open the app, open a conversation in the app, etc. If the notification isn't up, it will then show it everytime. I have to constantly go to Handcent and delete the undelivered message to clear the notification (until I next open the app, or the Messaging app gets a new message or it randomly gets the notification again during the day)
I was on the CM11 September Snapshot. I updated to the most recently nightly to see if that would help. But didn't help. It just started happening out of the blue. I thought about going to settings > Apps > Messaging > Clear Data. But I didn't want to lose all my text messages.
Any ideas?
Hi,
When I press the Samsung phone shortcut default application (to make a call or view contacts, call log etc.), it usually open the last position used i.e. if last time I used the call log, so it will open the call log (when I want to use keypad to dial….)
What to do?
I have already found a shortcut application, that point directly to 'call log', but still asking for dialer (keyboard) specific shortcut.

I use Samsung Galaxy Alpha, but I think my question related to any Samsung phone.
PS
The 'call log' mode is default to all "all logs" yet I want it to default to all call logs"
