Guest mbriody Posted September 28, 2006 Report Share Posted September 28, 2006 Just now I wanted to do a really basic task - send the mobile phone number associated with a contact to another contact by SMS text but have failed miserably so far. First try was to send a vcard but this seemed to want to send an MMS over GPRS, which I don't want to do. I then tried do a select and copy of the phone number which worked but when I went to compose the text there was no option to paste it! I ended up writing the number down and entering it manually into a text. Surely there's a better way? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure when it is out though and if we will be able to upgrade our existing handsets. Anyone know?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure when it is out though and if we will be able to upgrade our existing handsets. Anyone know?? Yep, very annoying problem. I found that copying the details from the open contact card is a little hit and miss. Try going back and copying to the clipboard a couple of times. I do it regularly but it's not ideal - formatting disappears for example so all postcodes look like they end in UK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest lukeap69 Posted September 29, 2006 Report Share Posted September 29, 2006 O2 SMS Plus. You can send your contact via MMS or SMS. lukeap 69 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Dr Who Posted September 29, 2006 Report Share Posted September 29, 2006 Hideous oversite that has existed on every Windows Mobile build up to the forthcoming AKU3 release. Smartphones at least have RJVSendcontact to use but doesn't seem to be an equivalent PPC app. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
