[Q] How to send SMS just on cell phone - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I am using a Xperia S android 4.0.4
I was used to send sms via my N900 easily, writing the sms and send to my contact
And my N900 knew it has to send the sms to the "cell phone number" of my contact
Actually, eachtime i want to send a sms i have to choose my contact first (normal ) then to choose if i want to send it to the home/cell/office/email!!!!!
I would like my Android phone send sms always to cellphone of my contacts! I dont want to choose on which number to send the sms
Otherwise, just explain me why i have to fill home/cell/office number!!!!
Thanks a lot

SMS Messages

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.

[Q] SMS Conversation show number instant of contact ?

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 !

[Q] I'd like 'Default' phone numbers to appear first?

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.

(Whatsapp) Sending sending messages to people not on your contact list

Hello Guys
Can you start communicating with someone in WhatsApp without him being in your contact list? Some people are claiming it's doable. I know you can talk with them if they happen to be on the same group.
I don't want to go through the hassle of creating a contact just to talk to him in WhatsApp for one time
The claim is that there is a button somewhere in the phone call history to select whatsapp as a messaging app instead of sms. All I see is a sms button that links to the messaging app
I found the below instructions but it doesn't work on my phone.
https://www.quora.com/Is-there-any-way-to-send-WhatsApp-messages-to-someone-not-on-your-contact-list
From the link
"This is possible only in certain mobile phones.*
Type the number in Keypad
Press the Menu button
Click Send message option
You will get a menu, saying Send via WhatsApp, Message, Hike and other such apps which you have installed in your device.Click on WhatsApp.
Now you can send message through WhatsApp to the number which is not in your Contact list.
