Hi guys, Im a winMo noob..I have few problems here.. I hope u guys can help me out :)

Some of my contacts have 2 or more mobile number. But as far as I know Outlook contact can only has 1 mobile number.

The problem comes when I want to send sms to the contact who has more than 1 mobile numbers (I want to store all his/her mobile numbers under one/same contact name - instead of separate).. WinMo default messaging program automatically use the mobile number in Mobile column.. Is there any ways that enable me to choose which number I want to send my sms to? (this is similar case/problem for Video Call..)

1. Any solutions for this guys? :)

2. Any good SMS/messaging program that I should install?

I also heard winMo default sms program, cannot send a message to more than 1 contact?

and cannot send an sms more than 160 characters??

Please shed me some light on those issues. Thanks in advance! :D

use the d-pad to highlight your other number go to menu and you will see the option send text message

another laternative would be to miss call the number and go back to the contacts page. the last called number will be automatically highlighted , go to mmenu and select send text message

thanks for the trick =)

ive also found that after 1x sms (after 160 chars), the second msg can only have 146 (so that 306 chars in total for 2 sms) before it goes to 3rd sms.. any ideas why so? that sux, wasting valuable 14 chars lol

unanswered question : how to send an sms msg with more than 1 contact/recipient ?

i also heard program called silverinbox, what exactly is that?

cheers

you can sen messages to more than one contact

in the default messaging program choose new for new message

add as many contacts you want in the to: field. it will send the sms to all of them

silverinbox is a touch friendly messaging inbox but it doesnt arrange sms in threaded form

oh yeah can send more than one ^^

but found another problem.. how do u send sms by group, e.g. family, friends, co-workers, etc. While on this matter, how to group contacts (in PhoneBook) as family, friend,etc?

as for my question about the amount of characters available for more than 1 message:

New Found: after 2nd sms, 3rd sms has 153 chars available, 4th sms has 153 chars too,...

any ideas why? is it like that on ur phone too, or just mine? I am using Taril's DXIA2 ROM

where can i find silverbox? heard its buggy.. do u recommend using it instead of default winmo messaging application?

Thanks in advance! :D
