How do you cancel a text message as it is sending before it is sent from a Samsung Rouge?

Tuesday, February 16th, 2010

How do you cancel a text message before it is sent from a Samsung Rouge? I always accidentally press send when I’m not finished with a text and I try pressing clear or end, and neither stop the message from sending.

We Have That Same Problem In Common.
You Have To Hold Down The End Key For About 2 Seconds.
Don’t Hold It Too Long Or You Will Turn Off The Phone.

my phone keeps restarting when i get a text message?

Monday, February 15th, 2010

I have the Motorola Hint, with alltel.
EVERYTIME i get a text message the phone automatically restarts itself.

it’s honestly very annoying and stressful, what could have caused this?

I don’t know but have you tried going to the Alltel website and see if there are any software upgrades for your phone? If there aren’t any, or that doesn’t do it, call their customer service and see if they will do anything about a defective phone.

How can I send music from my computer to my phone through text message?

Sunday, February 14th, 2010

I want to put ringtones on my phone from my computer but I don’t have a usb cord and I don’t want to go through that process. How can I send music from my computer to phone through a text message or something? I am in the UK so everything has to work with our networks.

Some websites do send music etc to your phone via text messaging but this service costs a bomb! If you’ve got WAP/GPRS (i.e. the mobile internet) on your phone, I suggest that you do what I did before I got my new phone. Just download what you want to your computer and then upload them to a free website. NB. These websites have a limit on the size of the file that you can download, so try not to upload anything too big (a common site is something like 200KB).

The websites I use for this are:

www.esato.com

You have to register to use this service but it’s free.

www.cbfmobile.com

Simple and easy to use.

Another thing you might want to do is get a friend with a computer cable to download what you want and send it to you either as a picture message or via infra red, if your phone has it (look for squares on the top, bottom or side of your phone-make sure that the square on your friend’s phone and yours are very close together and your infra red reception is activated. otherwise, it won’t work).

Hope this works!

How does a phone send a message?

Sunday, February 14th, 2010

I would like to know the technical side a cell phone uses in order to send a text (sms) message.

I already know how Blackberry Devices send message so I was curious as to if it was basically the same path?

IDK (I don’t know) I would say, Ask Blackberry or the provider how the phone sends texts.

How to Write a Text Message Response in Dialogue?

Sunday, February 14th, 2010

I’m working on a story where the characters send text messages to each other? Should I place quotation marks around what the text message said or should I just do it without quotation marks?
P.S. I’m doing a manuscript for a novel.
This is why I asked the question.

Most of the texting gimmicks I’ve seen used bold type to denote it. This isn’t quite the handbook of style, but as I said, the texting part I’ve seen has generally been a gimmick. "look how hip we are" type of thing. I’d say treat it as you would anything being read by a character. I’m sure the proper way is to treat it the same as a book.

I know that cell phone company’s have to keep a record of each cell phones text messages. Cops, parents, and anyone else can get ahold of these, without reason.

Lost in a Text Message

Sunday, January 31st, 2010

Lost in a Text Message
It’s funny we can hardly keep up with technology, let alone the language that comes with it … desktop computers, laptops, smartphones, PDAs, mobile phones, push to talk phones … just to name a few. All of these instruments have one common tread – communicating with love ones and friends using text messaging.
Have you ever gotten a message or email you didn’t understand and you were left scratching your head? What does that mean? Better yet, you are forced to ask your kids what it means.
So go ahead, glean the pages ahead, you will get an idea what your kids and friends are trying to tell you so you won’t be ….. “Lost In A text message,”

how to set up 911 enhanced to send a cellular phone text message to user with emergency details?

Thursday, January 28th, 2010

i heard E-911 systems can send a text message to emergency responders cell phones with details of call, location and type of call, also used as like a notification saying you have a call. i heard fire departments/countys have that for there fire departments. and ems squads

I’m not sure what your question is.

You cannot send a 911 center text messages. They are not equipped to recieve text messages from 911 callers yet.

Firemen use special pagers that recieve info from the 911 center, but it is nothing like text messaging.
